Chapter 562: More than a thousand years of perseverance

Gongsun Jing was reincarnated as a human.

This is the answer given by the little monk.

The Seventh Master politely questioned: "Master Huixin, Gongsun Jing is an orthodox Taoist disciple, and he has been taught by the Emperor, it stands to reason that he should go to the Sanguan Emperor to report, and he is no longer under the control of the prefecture, how did he go to reincarnation?" ”

The little monk said lightly: "After the death of the Gongsun donor, he did go to the Sanguan Emperor to report, he has passed the assessment of the heavenly officials, the earth officials, and the water officials, and the three emperors remember the profound merits of the Gongsun donor, and allow him to be ranked in the immortal class, and in the future, he can be free from suffering and happy, and never suffer from the suffering of reincarnation again." ”

"But Gongsun made his own choice, and he voluntarily gave up this opportunity."

The seventh master and I were taken aback: "He gave up?" ”

As a cultivator, the ultimate goal of aspiring is to ascend to immortality.

This is the same as a monk who becomes a monk and longs to be able to ascend to Elysium as soon as possible.

To put it more vulgarly, it's like a beggar who aspires to become a billionaire.

It's very difficult, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky, but Gongsun Jing has come this far.

In that case, why did he take the initiative to give up?

"Because of the ghost king."

The little monk Mi said: "After the ghost king was transformed by the Gongsun benefactor, he knew that he was deeply sinful, but fortunately, he sincerely repented and was ready to go to the underworld to ask for his sin. ”

"But before everything was in time, the Gongsun donor was killed by the traitor, and he let go of the ghost king before he died, and the ghost king thought of the degree of the Gongsun donor, and temporarily changed his mind to avenge the Gongsun donor."

"At that time, in order to protect themselves, a group of Taoist priests, under the coercion of some Buddhists, drew a map of the crime domain and sent the ghost king to prison."

"After the Gongsun donor learned of this, he took the initiative to give up the opportunity to become an immortal and attain the Tao, stayed in the underworld for a long time, and recited the Sutra of Resolving Grievances and Pulling Out Sins for the Ghost King for more than a thousand years."

I was stunned when I heard this reason.

Even the Seventh Master was very surprised.

Gongsun Jing's move is simply incredible.

He gave up the opportunity to become an immortal and attain the Tao, just to surpass the ghost king?

It stands to reason that he doesn't owe anything to the ghost king at all, and he has already transformed the ghost king before his death, when he was forced by so many people to kill the ghost king and didn't give in, he desperately wanted to let the ghost king go, and then although the ghost king was sent to prison, it had nothing to do with him.

To be honest, he has done so much for the Ghost King, it is enough.

Why did he bother?

It's like a beggar who gives up the chance to become a billionaire just for a stray dog on the side of the street?

Maybe I'm a little shallow in my thinking, and I can't understand why Gongsun Jing did this.

If I had to force an explanation, I could only understand that he was ...... to the Ghost King There are other special emotions.

I'm too embarrassed to ask.

No matter what, Gongsun Jing's cultivation and ideological realm can be called a generation of masters, and I am definitely not qualified to question others.

But in order to find out the truth, I could only ask stubbornly: "Master Huixin, Gongsun Jing is against the Ghost King...... Is there a love between men and women? ”

The little monk said lightly: "The love between men and women is a natural emotion of human beings, just like the combination of yin and yang, if the grandson and the ghost king have this meaning, it is really normal." ”

"But at that time, people's minds were a little closed and not enlightened, and Gongsun Shizhu was bent on justifying the name of Taoism, so even if he and the ghost king had this intention, in order to avoid suspicion, it was impossible to show their intentions, let alone do anything out of the ordinary."

"As for whether they mean that or not, only they know."

At this point I was already convinced.

Gongsun Jing and the Ghost King must have that meaning.

As Huixin said, the love between men and women, just like the combination of yin and yang, is a natural law, which originates from the most primitive impulses of human beings, and the so-called romance and beauty are only given by people's own preferences, or processed by art.

Even if a strange man and a woman are left alone for a long time, they may have feelings, which is the primitive instinct of human beings.

Therefore, the love between men and women stems from 'impulse' and lasts forever in 'never abandoning'.

And Gongsun Jing has this kind of inseparability towards the ghost king, so it can be judged that Gongsun Jing really likes the ghost king.

Willing to be a member of the opposite sex, give up the opportunity to become an immortal, and stay in the underworld, chanting scriptures for more than a thousand years, if it weren't for the love between men and women, I would chop off my head.

"Gongsun Jing is a Taoist priest, and he understands the truth that people and ghosts have different paths."

The Seventh Master sighed: "Especially in that era, he would never be able to take that step with the Ghost King, but according to his feelings for the Ghost King, if there is no false accusation from the informant, after the Ghost King goes to the underworld to ask for guilt, Gongsun Jing may still stay in the underworld for a long time, waiting for the reincarnation of the Ghost King." ”

"In fact, all tragedies originate from the confusion of the times, and the era of confusion has long become history, and we have no right to judge the rights and wrongs of history."

Xiao Seng Mi nodded: "You are reasonable, some rights and wrongs will inevitably happen, and the Gongsun donor just happened to be born in that era." ”

"He can stay in the underworld for more than a thousand years, and this firmness alone is admirable enough."

I asked, "Then Gongsun Jing and the Ghost King, have they both been reincarnated?" ”

The little monk nodded again: "The ghost king has to be punished in the prison because of his heavy sins, but fortunately, the persistence of the Gongsun donor moved Judge Cui, and the judge released the ghost king in advance and allowed him to be reincarnated." But there is a cycle of cause and effect, and the sins done by the ghost king will inevitably form evil retribution in the next life, or even in the next few lives, and it is extremely serious. ”

"After the reincarnation of the ghost king, there is no need for the grandson donor to keep it anymore, so he naturally goes to reincarnation."

I hurriedly said, "Gongsun Jing...... Is it time to protect the ghost king's next life? ”

The little monk shook his head: "Gongsun Shizhu knows the truth of the cycle of cause and effect, if he goes to protect the ghost king's next life, he will only harm the ghost king, and the evil retribution must be eliminated, otherwise it will be passed on for generations." Instead of blessing, he made another shocking decision. ”

The Seventh Master was suddenly shocked: "Is he...... Let yourself also participate in the retribution of the ghost king? ”

The little monk nodded, noncommittal.

This Gongsun Jing really went to protect the ghost king again, but the way he blessed was to help the ghost king eliminate the evil retribution at the cost of entering the game.

This love is ...... How unswerving?

Is he that determined?

"Where is the life of Gongsun Jing and the Ghost King?" I asked.

The little monk looked at me, then at An Ning, and said, "You and this female benefactor, walk out of the Hanging Peak Ancient Temple, walk down the ninety-nine steps, and wait in place, and you will naturally get the answer." ”

An Ning and I looked at each other, a little dazed.

"Master Huixin, forgive me for being stupid, are you saying that if we go down the ninety-ninth level, we will be able to see Gongsun Jing and the Ghost King?"

"Yes, yes."

The little monk nodded, and said meaningfully: "If people are not burdened by the form, there is Da Luotian in front of them." ”
