Song Shichang walked into the small pavilion of Ju'an, subconsciously glanced at the well in the courtyard, and couldn't help but recall the evil ghosts in the well, and then looked at the trunk of the jujube tree in the courtyard.

"This jujube tree is surrounded by aura all year round, and it can cleanse the turbidity. ”

Ji Yuan closed the courtyard door and replied with a smile.

"It's that this jujube tree is not simple, it's not that my small pavilion is not simple, the old city god, please sit, you and I just have the ability to invite the stars and the moon to drink together. ”

"Haha, Mr. Ji invited, Song didn't dare to disobey!"

Song Shichang stood in front of the stone table, waiting for Ji Yuan to close the door and come back, and then naturally sat down at the table with Ji Yuan, who had already set up the wine cup for Song Shichang and poured a glass of wine-colored Huadiao wine.

"Song Chenghuang, please!" "Mr. Ji, please!"

After sharing a drink, Song Shichang's slight nervousness disappeared, Ji Yuan was still the same Ji Yuan, but he himself was a little bit obsessed.

"Ning'an County has been calm for decades, in addition to the stability of the yang, the care of the underworld is also very important, and the old city god is also a great contribution. ”

"Where to say, the only yang does not become the only yin and the yin does not grow, and they always complement each other. ”

The old city god said modestly, picked up a piece of pastry and tasted it.

Ji Yuan doesn't know what this old city god is visiting today, after all, he is not a mortal, the concept of time is different, and it is nothing if he hasn't seen him for more than ten or twenty years, but he is not in a hurry, anyway, he will always make his intentions clear, maybe he will really visit him.

The two chatted casually, Song Shichang talked about the not too big changes in Ning'an County, and Ji Yuan picked some things that were not too exaggerated to talk about.

When he didn't know it, it was almost midnight, Song Shichang looked up at the stars, and could vaguely feel the power of the stars falling, and in a trance, he felt that Ji Yuan was also a little starry, but there was nothing special about it.

"Mr. Ji, I am in a corner of Ning'an County, as a city god in the county, Song has a small vision and shallow knowledge, and he knows very little about the vastness of heaven and earth. ”

There is no need to be modest in this statement, because it is indeed true.

"This time, Song came to the door, in fact, he wanted to ask Mr. Ji a question. ”

"Song Chenghuang, please speak. ”

"Hmm!"

Song Shichang nodded and said slowly.

"I, Song Shichang, have been the city god of Ning'an County for a long time, and I survived the fall of the previous dynasty, and now I have more than 300 years, although the cultivation is shallow, but I am also content and happy, and the yin and yang of Ning'an County that shelters me is Song's volunteer. ”

"Lord Chenghuang is righteous!"

Ji Yuan arched his hand to express his respect, Song Shichang didn't dare to accept the salute, and immediately greeted him with a salute at the moment when Ji Yuan gave his hand.

"Mr. praised falsely, isn't this the case with the Chenghuang Division, I don't want to say how Song is good, but a few years, these hundreds of years have witnessed the life and death of countless people, and also witnessed the dissipation of countless ghosts, and gradually became confused. ”

Song Shichang looked at Ji Yuan's gradually serious appearance, organized his words and continued.

"Ordinary people enter the Yin Division after death, and there are family members who sacrifice to live in peace, and it is a little desolate without family care, but if there are no special circumstances, the soul will dissipate sooner or later, and the soul will disappear first and the three souls will be divided, and the human soul will be annihilated, and the soul of the earth and the soul of the sky will ascend to heaven and disappear in heaven and earth. ”

"Hmm. ”

Ji Yuan nodded and said that he was listening, in fact, he listened very carefully, compared to this kind of professional knowledge, he was definitely not as good as Song Shichang of the old city god.

Song Shichang didn't ask the question he wanted to ask directly, but carefully used some representative souls over the years as examples to tell the record of Yin Si.

Among them, there are evil people, good people, ordinary people, and even many ghosts and ghosts who are still difficult to survive in the end.

Ji Yuan is also the first time that the same Yin Si ghost and god have talked in detail about the ordinary souls of the underworld, although people are dead, they are still a society in the underworld, and they still rely on the yang world in life, but the final destination is still the same.

talked a lot, Ji Yuan was not impatient at all, and after listening to it for a long time, he could even vaguely feel the question that the old city god wanted to ask

"The soul disappears like a lamp goes out, the soul of the human soul extinguishes the two souls of heaven and earth, and it is normal to ascend to heaven and earth, but Song inadvertently discovered that by chance, there were also heavenly souls walking with the residual breath of the human soul!"

Ji Yuan sat upright and interrupted for the first time.

"Dare to ask the old city god, how many times have you seen such a thing?"

Song Shichang recalled.

"This kind of thing is extremely rare, since it was discovered by chance more than two hundred years ago, Song has been paying attention to the dissipation of the ghosts in the underworld, and even after seeing it again, he sent two chief officials to the ghost city to monitor this matter, even the first one, a total of seven times in more than two hundred years, of course, we dare not say that there is nothing missing. ”

"Seven times. ”

Ji Yuan frowned and thought about it, for more than two hundred years, I don't know how many people will die and how many ghosts will die, such a huge base, and only seven cases have been observed by Yin Si, which shows that this phenomenon is really very, very rare.

"It's more than that. ”

Song Shichang drank the wine in the cup again, and the wine sucked away the water vapor and dissipated, as if he was a little drunk, and then continued.

"About six years ago, Song met a man at the City God Temple. ”

"Cultivators?"

When Ji Yuan asked, Song Shichang shook his head and replied.

"No, a mortal, or a mercenary merchant, what he seeks is also wealth, and there is nothing special in itself, but this person is ...... from the soul of a deliberate soul that has dissipated decades ago."

Song Shichang paused and looked at Ji Yuan, and Ji Yuan had already guessed.

Sure enough, Song Shichang did not deviate from the expectations of Ji Yuan next.

"There is a similarity in the score, or if it weren't for the difference in age, the similarity would probably be ten!"

People have faces and souls, the former can be changed in disguise, or the son may inherit the portrait of the father, it is not strange to look similar, but the soul is unique, and it is also one of the means for ghosts and gods to often look at people, some are similar to the art of predicting and scrutinizing.

Song Shichang recalled the initial shock, but he was not too surprised on Ji Yuan's face, and was slightly stunned, thinking that maybe Mr. Ji really knew.

"Back then, the merchant lived in an inn in the county seat, and in order to verify it, I also dreamed of him that night, confirming that his person was not related to the dead ghost back then, but a person from Kyoto, who came to my Ning'an County to receive copywriting, but this soul is ...... This matter shocked me greatly, and Song also took the opportunity to ask the Dachenghuang of Desheng Mansion, but he didn't know either. ”

Song Shichang looked at Ji Yuan, who had been listening quietly and didn't show too much surprise.

"Mr. Ji is a great supernatural person, he woke up from a dream and didn't know how many years in the world he had, can you solve Song's confusion in this matter?"

There is no such thing as reincarnation in this world, but it is not without the reality of reincarnation, in fact, it is possible to achieve such things when the cultivation is so advanced that it is possible, but it is also extremely difficult and difficult, not to mention ordinary ghosts.

So Ji Yuan is actually not as calm as it seems, but he has heard a lot about things like reincarnation in his previous life, and he is also a little resistant in the end.

After thinking about it, Ji Yuan thought about it repeatedly before he spoke.

"I wonder if the old Song Chenghuang has heard of the two kinds of water walking of the dragon genus?"

"Two kinds of water?"

Song Shichang frowned.

"If Long Jiao cultivates to the point where he wants to turn into a dragon, he will be at the right time for the waterway, calculate the right time and place, and make waves and go, it is to walk the water, and there is a kind of Song I don't know. ”

"Well, yes, another kind of secret that is barely considered a dragon clan, hehe, of course, it's not a secret that must be kept. ”

Ji Yuan smiled and explained.

"In fact, when the dragon genus is about to die, most of them will not want the dragon soul to become a ghost, and the vast majority of dragon Jiao will choose to carry out the last water walk in their lives, and turn their own spirit and vitality out and ......"

Ji Yuan combined with the situation of seeing Mo Jiao walking in the water and discussing this matter with Lao Long, and talked to Song Shichang in detail, and the latter was also abrupt.

"Therefore, if there is a dragon with really good luck and talent, it is still possible to reappear in the future, although the dragon body may be different, but it retains the original character and most of the memories, which can be regarded as a kind of reincarnation and reconstruction. ”

"Reincarnation and reconstruction, reincarnation and reconstruction......"

Song Shichang muttered and repeated this fresh term twice, and Ji Yuan continued.

"In fact, those who have cultivated to the highest level may also have more heavenly means, I don't speculate for the time being, some demons are good at this, they themselves call it obsessed with demons, but in fact, only some cases are suitable for this title, and the other small part ...... In fact, it should be called 'snatching'. ”

Although the two words thrown out by Ji Yuan successively were the first time Song Shichang heard them, they were very concise and to the point, combined with the content of the preface, he could understand what they meant almost as soon as he heard them.

"And what I'm seeing is analogous to this?"

"Well, if the souls are really similar to this extent, they can indeed be regarded as reincarnation. ”

Ji Yuan didn't say "reincarnation", because this is an occasional **, and reincarnation is a kind of active choice**.

This matter has been puzzled in Song Shichang's heart for a long time, and when he heard Ji Yuan's explanation at this moment, he knew that it was a "normal phenomenon".

"Then can those ghosts that have been dissolved with the breath of human souls have an afterlife?"

Ji Yuan shook his head.

"The genus of Long Jiao can only fight for a chance by virtue of his lifelong cultivation, and the old city god thinks that an ordinary ghost oil lamp will disappear at the moment when the soul is gone, can there be an inevitable opportunity?"

Song Shichang was stunned.

"Yes, thank you Mr. Ji for your doubts. ”

had to be answered, Song Shichang felt much more comfortable in his heart, and the subsequent conversation also went in a casual and leisurely direction.

Before dawn, the old city god got up and prepared to leave, and Ji Yuan sent him to the door.

The two sides saluted separately, but Ji Yuan kept standing in front of the courtyard gate and meditating until he couldn't see the back of the old city god.

The ghost who has run out of oil and the lamp, with the breath of the soul of the remnant village, returns to heaven with the soul of the remnant village, and can actually have an afterlife? This is not the story of the six reincarnations in the previous life, and the hardships and dangers are absolutely extraordinary, and the dragon Jiao still has only the slightest chance, let alone the ghost of a person.
