Chapter 5 Yuanding
Zhou Zu was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect this old man to be able to see through the resentment in his heart, which should not be underestimated, and then said helplessly.
"The predecessors have a discerning eye, and they are really not angry in their hearts, and they have been alive for 20 years in this life, and they have never done anything that hurts nature and reason."
"But because the man was jealous of my family being better than him, he poisoned me in my wine, and poisoned me. However, it is already ancient, but there is nothing that can be done. ”
Zhou Zu said again, "When the younger generation is alive, play some clever tricks and take advantage of a little advantage, then the world will punish me within a few days, either hurt or ruined." ”
"And I do good deeds but never reciprocate, although doing good deeds is done with my heart, without asking for returns, but doing good deeds will often be unlucky, so I would rather suffer a loss than take advantage of others. I don't want to do that good thing. ”
"But others are retribution in the afterlife, no matter what hurtful things they do, even if they die, they can be reincarnated, erase the memory of this life, and let the innocent people in the next life suffer karma for him. Heaven is unfair! ”
The old man and Liu Ziji, who was standing on the side, were full of surprise! It's like today's times are very different from theirs!
The more Zhou Zu spoke, the more angry he became, he quietly calmed down, and said, "And the person who poisoned the younger generation has had a three-year friendship with me, but he killed me out of jealousy, he doesn't have to be punished, even if he is found out in the yang world, he will only be imprisoned." ”
"But I can't go back, but even if he goes to hell, he can choose to reincarnate and let the people in the next life clear his sins for him.
The old man and Liu Ziji were stunned, why is the way of heaven so unfair? There has never been such injustice before!
Then the old man said, "I see, but the way of the world now, the old decay is not clear, but it will never be like this in the past." ”
"In the past, no matter what you did in this life, after you became ancient, you would be unified in hell to bear all the causes and effects of this life, good things and bad things, and there would be clear rewards and punishments. After all the accounts are settled, I will go to reincarnation. ”
"If you do a lot of good deeds in this life, you may become an official in the underworld, or enjoy glory and wealth in the next life."
"If you have done all the bad things in this life, but your sins do not lead to death, you will endure endless torments in hell, and only after the torment is completed can you continue to be reincarnated or live in the underworld."
"If you do too much to hurt heaven and reason, you will be swallowed by Tubo, and you will disappear from then on, and your consciousness will fall into eternal darkness."
Zhou Zu was stunned in his heart, it turned out that the past was not the same as now, is this a change in the rules?
Zhou Zu asked, "Then why did the rules change?" Aren't the rules unchangeable? No one can challenge the rules."
The old man smiled slightly, and then said, "Xiaoyou thinks simply, where do the rules come from?" Where did no one come from? The rules are made by people. ”
"When you become lord of hell, who will dare to disobey? Anything you say is a rule, and if you don't obey it, it's a dead end. ”
"Of course, the two worlds of the yang world and the underworld are different laws, and the two worlds are in conflict, and it is difficult to change, but if the strength is stronger, it can also be changed."
Zhou Zu almost understands at this moment, it turns out that the rules are all set by people, and the underworld and the yang world are no exception.
It seems that the situation in the underworld is not as simple as imagined.
Qi Lu said that today's underworld is the most powerful Emperor Xudu, that is, he said that the banyan realm cannot be cultivated.
And what's going on with Tubo? In the past, there were people who did great things that were angry and resentful, and they would be eaten by Tubo, and it seems that there are still some unknown things in the underworld.
Countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Zu's mind. said to the old man, "What the predecessors said is reasonable, I was taught below, and the current ruler of the underworld is the Emperor Xudu, I don't know who was in power before the Emperor Xudu?" Is it Tuber? ”
The old man smiled and said, "In the past, there was no one in power, it belonged to the feudal system, and it was different from the present, and the past things were let him pass, and we have to look to the future." ”
"Isn't Xiaoyou not used to today's rules, so when the strength is strong, break him. Wouldn't it be nice to be the one who made the rules yourself? ”
What this old man said makes sense, but how can it be so easy, if you can become a rule-maker casually, then it won't be overturned?
Zhou Zu said with a smile, "Thank you seniors for looking down on you, since the seniors believe in the juniors, if the juniors are really strong in the future, they will definitely be the first to rescue you, even if you do your best, you have to repay the seniors for saving their lives." ”
After Zhou Zu finished speaking, he stood up and bowed deeply to the old man.
The old man happily took it, it seems that the old man did not mistake Zhou Zu, but at present, he then stood up and said to Zhou Zu, "Since Xiaoyou wants to change the rules, then the old man will pass you some exercises, but it is only the beginning of the exercises." ”
"The road is out of their own, has been following the footsteps of the former, can never catch up, only lead you to the beginning, the back road to open up their own, that can surpass the former, even if the road is rugged, that is also their own road."
Zhou Zu's expression was solemn, and he bowed to the old man again, "Thank you for the teachings of your predecessors, I don't know the names of your predecessors."
"Little friends can call me a benevolent senior," the old man said.
Zhou Zu knew it in his heart, and he didn't know what exercises this old man could teach himself, and he didn't know if it was the kind in the martial arts TV series.
The old man Rensheng said to Liu Ziji beside him, "Ziji, summon all the villagers, bring those herbs in their homes, the essence and blood of ancient beasts, and I will boil a pot of medicine for Xiaoyou." ”
Liu Ziji said yes, and then went out to call the villagers.
Zhou Zu was a little puzzled at the moment, didn't he want exercises? Why do you want to boil a big medicine, can you wash the essence and cut the marrow after drinking it? Isn't that the same as the sun?
The old man Rensheng saw that Zhou Zu was puzzled at the moment, and replied with a slight smile: "Little friend, don't worry, you need to condense your body at the moment to make a big medicine. ”
"Although your body at the moment has been condensed countless times more than ordinary people, the foundation is not solid, and you need to practice with great medicine to completely refine the impurities of the yin and yang worlds, otherwise there will be some small troubles in cultivating in the future."
Zhou Zu suddenly understood and nodded. It turns out that it is similar to the yang world, when you are in the yang world, the body has impurities, which is not good for the body, which is well known to everyone. I didn't expect the same in the underworld, and the soul body in the underworld also has impurities.
Then Liu Ziji summoned hundreds of villagers to come here.
Standing in the open space outside the door, some of the people were holding some grass and some flowers, and some of them did not know what was in the jar.
A group of village names exchanged words with each other, exchanging words that I don't know what they were.
The old man Rensheng saw that all the people outside the door were here, and then led Zhou Zu out of the door.
The benevolent old man waved his hand to everyone and signaled for quiet.
Then he spoke, "Villagers, this is a genius who merges the soul of man and earth, which is rare in ancient and modern times, but this is also our hope. ”
"Now two thousand years have passed in the yang world, and we have been sealed here, unable to see the outside world, so this little friend is our only hope for all these years."
"I hope everyone can take out their own inventory at the bottom of the box, I vouch for my personality, Xiaoyou can definitely be trusted, if there is any problem in the future, everyone can find me directly."
At this time, a villager spoke, "The village chief said this, we absolutely and unconditionally support the village chief, since the village chief believes, then we will do our best to help Xiaoyou." ”
Others also chimed in, "I also support, we have been sealed here for many years, and we finally see hope, this is the only chance, I have taken out my most precious phoenix blood, I hope everyone will not be stingy"
"I brought the Kirin Essence Blood"
"I brought the Tianluo flower, now this flower is extinct, I only have two in my hand, which can stimulate a lot of potential of the human body, I take out one and offer, I hope not to dislike it"
Everyone said a word, as if they had taken out their most precious things.
It's bound to be ruined and gambled once.
"Okay, thank you for lifting up, let's get started" After the old man finished speaking, he saw a huge bronze round tripod appear in the open space, like a large vat, four feet eight inches high, but the belly of the tripod was unusually fat, enough to put two or three people in it.
This tripod-shaped abdominal cavity is round and deep, the ears are small and erect on the edge of the mouth, and the three-legged tripod is standing. The body is thin and the mouth is wide, the small ears are semicircular, the abdomen is deep, the tricone foot is short and short, the foot is empty, and communicates with the abdomen. One ear is aligned with one foot, and the other ear is between the other two feet. The workmanship is coarse, with obvious casting marks.
