Chapter 176, The Beginning and the End

"It's ...... Hungry ghosts!" Lin Peacock said in surprise.

What is a hungry ghost? The argument here is that some wicked people have fallen into the way of hungry ghosts because of some sins they have created in their previous lives, and their mouths are too small to eat. Hungry ghosts are just a name, strictly speaking they are not ghosts, they are a kind of creatures, what are the specifics, Buddhism and Taoism have different interpretations!

However, for the image of hungry ghosts, Buddhism has a detailed description, because the ghost beings are inspired by bad karma, most of them have a big belly like a basin, and their throats are as thin as pinholes, and they can't eat food for many years. Don't think that his belly is too big and he is too hungry to think that he is full of food, it is because of malnutrition that causes his stomach to swell, in fact, they are very hungry!

There are many different types of hungry ghosts, some who can spit fire, some who spit out what they eat, some who eat dung and urine, some who eat dead meat, and some who cannot eat anything, etc., and they are often pecked out of their eyes and eaten by vultures.

Now that one of the legendary Six Realms of Hades really appeared in front of him, a hungry ghost directly controlled by the laws of heaven and earth, Xu Zhige and the others couldn't help but be shocked. Don't be nervous, because the legendary hungry ghost is an existence that devours everything in the world, even if a legendary-level monster is surrounded by a hungry ghost, if there is no life-saving move, it can only tie up and die!

"Master...... These hungry ghosts, it seems...... It's not the same as the legend!"

After a closer look, the forest peacock found that these hungry ghosts did not seem to be irrational as the legend suggests, but only had the instinct to eat. By the side of Master Huiwen, the 'Buddha lanterns' transformed by the evil spirits wandered from side to side, but they did not rush towards the 'fresh food' here.

Call!

The smoke cleared, and the old monk Huiwen behind him turned a little pale, looking very sad.

"Several donors have seen it clearly? These hungry ghosts of the underworld are exactly the same as described in the legend, but their actions are controlled by others! This shows that the six realms of the underworld can also be manipulated by people!" The old monk's face changed, full of fear! "Do you know what this means?"

Thinking about it, I also know that once the six realms of Hades, which represent the power of the laws of heaven and earth, become an object that can be manipulated artificially, then it is not an exaggeration to call that person a god!

"Legend has it that the overlord of the underworld, known as the demigod 'Hades Dragon', has a secret method to control the six realms, but he can't think of ......"

Lan Lan's words were also full of disbelief, "Please forgive me for being rude, but I really can't believe that with a mortal body, I can actually have the power to manipulate the laws of heaven and earth, won't I suffer a backlash?"

"This female benefactor said very well!" The old monk sighed: "It is impossible for a mortal body to control the laws of heaven and earth no matter what, even if it can be driven, it will definitely be eaten by the laws and die!

Without paying attention to this, the old monk broke the news again! Even a legendary-level Taoist priest had fallen on this scorching mountain!

"What does the master mean...... Back then, Ni Qiu Daochang did not live in seclusion here, but had other plans, and then ...... Fall!" Lin Peacock frowned and asked, "What happened back then?"

"To be precise, Ni Qiu's seclusion in Lieshan is not a fabrication, but a fact. However, what people don't know is that the Dao Chief first lived in seclusion here, and then discovered a big secret, and in the end, for this secret, the Dao Chief buried the bones in the Burning Mountain, but the world did not know!"

Leo thought for a moment, "This so-called big secret must have something to do with these hungry ghosts!"

"Donor's Eye!" the old monk sighed, "These old men were also found in the codex left by Zen Master Huineng. ”

"Back then, Ni Qiu Dao Chang lived in seclusion in Lieshan, comprehending the way of the sword, hoping that one day he would be able to break through the limit and take a step further. So, he would meditate in the mountains every day, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, hoping to have an epiphany!" The old monk said: "However, how can the legend be so easy to break through, Rao is the dragon and phoenix among the people of Ni Qiu Dao but still can't find a trace, the days have passed, Ni Qiu Dao Chang began to be a little anxious! He even hoped that some ethereal things could make him have an epiphany, so he gave himself up on the cliff to watch the Buddha lantern, hoping that the Buddha would be merciful and ignite him. ”

"This one is a bit ......"

"It was at that time that Daoist Ni Qiu discovered something unusual!"

Lan Lan understood, and said, "What does the master mean is that the hungry ghost Dao here was discovered by Daoist Ni Qiu?"

The old monk nodded and sighed: "At that time, Daoist Ni Qiu, who was already a little enchanted, firmly believed that this was the opportunity given to him by God, and he wanted to break through the limit and become a mortal god by controlling the power of the law!"

"Whimsical!" Xu Zhige knew without guessing that something must have happened later!

"It's really a bit whimsical, but the donor would never have imagined how amazing Daoist Ni Qiu is, so he can't say it's a failure, he can only say that he can't step in......!" It's fallen!"

"Is that the result of that research the candlestick?" Lin Kui's observation was very careful, and he could see that the old monk Huiwen had been holding it in the palm of his hand, and the very precious thing should be what he said, a treasure that could control the hungry ghost.

"Actually, this is not a candlestick, but a life lamp! Daoist Ni Qiu found materials in the underworld to create a strange thing refined from his own natal soul fire! With this, it can make hungry ghosts think that you are the same kind, gather around you, and then control them through their own minds!" The old monk Huiwen can be regarded as a confession, and even the origin and function of the treasure are clear.

"There are still such strange things?" Lin Peacock sighed: "It seems that Daoist Ni Qiu is indeed a brilliant person, and he can actually think of such a way to achieve his goal of driving hungry ghosts." ”

"Having said all this, the master doesn't seem to have told us yet, what do you want to do when you talk to us about this? It's not like showing off that you have a treasure that can control hungry ghosts, right......?"
