Chapter Seventy-Six: Six Paths
Ji Yuan felt the temperature in the cell plummet, and the faint light and flames of the oil lamp were emitted outside, as if a layer of frost had formed and appeared gray.
He looked at Wang Zhan again, and behind him stood four or five people with disheveled heads, covered in blood, as if they had been tortured.
"Huh? These people were illuminated by the fire, and there was no shadow, could it be that they were ghosts? ”
Originally, in the world of lions and camels, Ji Yuan only knew that life was like a lamp going out, and no trace would be left: "The ginseng fruit tree devours flesh and blood, and the fruit it bears only condenses the powerful resentment in life!" Even if I have cultivated to the realm of fugue, I have never seen a dead person turn into a ghost or a ghost, wandering the world. “
Ji Yuan recalled the villagers of Sin Village, who worshiped and worshiped the gods with precious things, not just so that they could have a good reincarnation in the next life: "Could it be that there is some special power in this world that can turn people into ghosts after death?" If this is the case, isn't the so-called reincarnation really a thing? ”
Suddenly, a terrifying feeling surged into Ji Yuan's heart: "Or is it that the world of lion camels is the world of ghosts!" My physical body was absorbed by the World Tree and transformed into an innate spirit fetus, and then I came to this world! ”
Isn't this process the reincarnation of a ghost?!
Ji Yuan couldn't help but think of the gloomy and lifeless world of lions and camels, among which there was a purple-black, dragon-like giant tree, supporting heaven and earth, strong branches and leaves, roots, winding like a python, deep into infinite time and space!
"Whether it is the ginseng fruit tree or the world tree, it can absorb the human spirit, brew a miraculous, living fruit, and then send it to the heavens and all worlds!"
Once this idea was generated in Ji Yuan's head, it was like opening the floodgates, and all kinds of shocking thoughts kept pouring out: "Could this ginseng fruit tree be the predecessor of the World Tree, and the World Tree is a tangible six realms of reincarnation?" ”
Just when Ji Yuan was thinking nonsense, Wang Zhan had already curled up in the corner, trembling all over, and his face was so pale that there was no blood at all!
Ji Yuan secretly screamed, "Not good", and slowly urged the blood and qi of the whole body to be masculine, like a big furnace, emitting a wave of heat, as if there was an invisible force, driving away those few yin souls that were entangled in Wang Zhan.
He found that the qi and blood in the human body were masculine, and it seemed to be able to break through the evil spirit.
Some people with strong qi and blood, like fighting on the battlefield, fierce and powerful generals, their qi and blood contain a fierce masculinity, through the skin membrane, muscles and flesh through the emitter, like a flame, within a few feet, ghosts can not get close.
"Legend has it that Tang Taizong was asked for his life by the ghost of the Dragon King of Jinghe, so he asked his generals to act as a door god for him and resist the dragon ghost all night!"
At this time, Wang Zhan, who was curled up in the corner of the wall, suddenly felt that the chill on his body subsided, and his spirit also perked up, only to see Ji Yuan standing aside: "Brother Ji!" You're awake! ”
After the surprise, he began to cry again, saying that he had never been in prison in his life, and now that he has become a criminal, he will definitely be looked down upon when he goes out.
Ji Yuan smiled slightly, and immediately comforted him: "Don't worry! Whether you can get out alive is a matter of words! ”
Wang Zhan was stunned, his face froze, and he began to cry.
At this time, two jailers suddenly came menacing and opened the prison door: "Who is Wang Zhan of the two of you?!" ”
When Wang Zhan heard the jailer calling for himself, he instantly looked at Ji Yuan with difficulty as if he wanted to seek refuge.
He swallowed and replied with a painful expression, "Yes...... It's ...... me."
The two young jailers, with gloomy expressions, as if they were the ghosts of the underworld, did not say anything, and immediately picked up Wang Zhan and took him away, leaving him to wail all the way.
Not long after, Wang Zhan was taken to a dark room.
In the dark room, there was a large brass brazier with the head of a beast, and the flames in it were blazing, emitting incandescent light, and the heat hit the face, as if it was about to set a person's hair on fire through the air.
In the brazier of the beast's head, there are red-hot soldering irons, and the surroundings are covered with all kinds of sharp torture instruments, as if the skin and flesh will be broken at a glance.
In addition to the two young jailers who brought Wang Zhan in, there was also a middle-aged jailer with a grin.
Wang Zhan was tied to the stake of the cross, and his mind went blank as he looked at the few jailers in front of him with fierce faces.
The middle-aged jailer's smile was gloomy, making people shudder, and he asked slowly, "Boy! We ask you questions, and if you answer honestly, you will suffer less, you know? ”
When Wang Zhan heard this, his head nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Whatever the official asks, I will answer, and there will never be any deception!" ”
"That's good! You stole something from the king, where are you hiding now? ”
"Which king?"
"Naturally, it's Wang Tianba, and the king is outside!"
As soon as Wang Zhan heard the words "Wang Tianba", he thought of his sister who didn't know his life and death, and instantly rushed from the soles of his feet to Tianlinggai, and he even scolded: "That bastard cares about people's lives and deceives me too much, and he dares to say that I stole his things?!" ”
The young jailer on the side stepped forward viciously and slapped his head and face, and there seemed to be a firecracker in the dark room.
"Bold!"
Wang Zhan was slapped so that his eyes were full of stars, his cheeks were red and swollen, and red blood flowed from his mouth.
The middle-aged jailer looked at Wang Zhan, who was full of blood, the corners of his eyes shrank for a while, his expression became hideous, and he seemed to be a little excited: "You see, although everyone's blood is red, it is actually like a human being and livestock, after all, it is different!" ”
Wang Zhan was puzzled and angry, and found that he was not so afraid: "What do you mean by this? ”
The middle-aged jailer put his face close to Wang Zhan and said coldly: "I want to tell you that although you and I seem to be both human, your life is as cheap as a beast, and killing you here is no different from killing a pig!" ”
Wang Zhan was stunned, and his eyes became gray: "Isn't my life any different from that of animals?" ”
He recalled the days he had lived over the years, and also dreamed of reading and writing, learning martial arts, and fantasizing that one day he could get ahead and become a hero admired by everyone.
But what is the reality?
The reality is that I am like a peanut, put in a trough, constantly being squeezed, constantly bleeding and sweating, to fill other people's wealth and spoils!
Wang Zhan seemed to be crazy, struggled desperately, and roared loudly: "Yes! I am a brute, the private property and goods of those powerful and powerful, and life and death do not matter! But what about you? What do you have to show off? It's just those people's dogs! Hahaha! ”
The middle-aged jailer was furious, gritted his teeth and said, "Greet him well!" But don't kill him! ”
One person pulled out a red-hot soldering iron from the brazier, and countless carbon chips and sparks flew around, like drops of blood.
Ji Yuan's divine thoughts shrouded here, observing these jailers, and he was a little confused for a while.
Is it a man, a ghost, or a beast?
"If there really are six realms of reincarnation, what is humanity here? Hungry Ghost Road? Or is it a beast? ”
