Chapter 786: Prison Mystery Corpse (9)
Chu Xunyu and the two of them sensed the effect of the ancient Miao grammar array, and hoped that Forget Chen could push the winch in the hall to release them, but they couldn't notify them in time, so they were helpless, at this time, the two of them really had a feeling that the sky should not be called, and the earth was not spiritual, Mu Yuan said in frustration: "If the predecessors of Forget Chen can't find the secret of this, we will have to be trapped here for the rest of our lives, and finally become a rotten soul." ”
"No, we'll figure it out. Chu Xunyu frowned tightly and comforted Mu Yuan, "We're thinking about it, we must be able to find a way to come out, those thousand years ago cup masters have become a pile of loess, can we still lose to a group of dead people?"
"Then let's think again. Mu Yuan calmed down, and counted all kinds of things encountered along the way with his fingers, according to the analysis of the two of them, the construction of this formation is related to the power of the soul, it has no thinking, and it will not start on its own, since coming here, every move seems to have been calculated by those cup masters who have been thousands of years apart, the only surprise is that Forget Dust pushed the winch to let the formation inadvertently start again, this is a key point, you have to make a fuss from here to crack here.
Thinking of this, Mu Yuan suddenly had insight into the pass, and exclaimed in surprise: "It's the soul!"
Then he said his thoughts to Chu Xunyu, if it is really as Chu Xunyu said, the launch of this formation all depends on the power of the soul, then one thing makes sense, before and after the stalactite cave, the two not only launched the soul power to start the formation, but also once pushed the soul of a Miao person into the hand bone, all of which have one thing in common, they are all related to the soul, which can very well prove Chu Xunyu's "soul power" Opinion, first of all, the two of them used their souls to launch the formation, so that the formation was connected everywhere, there is no dispute about this, but after the Miao man's soul was pushed into the hand bone, it must have happened to the forgotten dust, otherwise how could he push the winch at that time so coincidentally? So the idea of this soul power launching the formation may also be real, so now it is very simple for the two of them to notify the forgotten dust on the other side, they only need to find a soul to advance, so the trick is repeated, and the attention of the forgotten dust is aroused and he can push it again.
Chu Xunyu, who said this, looked at Mu Yuan in a daze, and Mu Yuan asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
"It's not...... It's very good, but ......" Chu Xunyu looked at him strangely and funny, "Bajie, in general, you need to find a soul to advance, this kind of tricky method You Buddhism and Taoist disciples actually said it without hesitation?
Mu Yuan was also stunned, looked down at his hands, and said blankly: "Yes, when did I say this kind of hurtful way to lose my worries?"
"As soon as you enter Shura, you are as deep as the sea, and your anger and hatred are always obscured. I have never heard the bell ringing, and it is boundless and difficult to look back. Chu Xunyu sighed, quoting the allusion of the great demon god Asura in the eight heavenly dragons of Buddhism, in the past, Asura was full of sins such as anger, anger, and killing, and Shakyamuni Buddha preached and edified, Asura was ashamed when he heard this, and said his heart, pointing out the boundless sea of suffering, deep in it, and the tragic mentality that could not extricate himself, implying that people are in the rivers and lakes, and all kinds of trivial things are sinful but suffer from the pain of no one to redeem them. In the past, Chu Xunyu killed too much, Mu Yuan often used this allusion to persuade him, and after being cleansed by the extradition power of Death Valley, he was temporarily safe, and he didn't want Mu Yuan to roll in this red dust and provoke such a sin, Chu Xunyu read out his previous words, hoping to remind him.
Mu Yuan smiled bitterly, Chu Xunyu bent down and squatted, held the formation with his hand, raised his head and said, "There are no souls here, let's do it again, try it in finding a place with those rotten souls." ”
Mu Yuan nodded, the two of them worked together, so that the formation set off a burst of red light, and once again came to the third strange place, as soon as the red light dispersed, Mu Yuan stumbled, Chu Xunyu hurriedly held on, but he also felt dizzy, and finally calmed down, Mu Yuan looked at his hands and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
"Overconsumption. Chu Xunyu also had a feeling of panic, "It's just like we use our physical body to consume spiritual energy, when we run out, we can use up the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to our own body through cultivation, we are now souls, and we have activated the power of the soul three times and twice, and there is no replenishment, it is estimated that the consumption is too fast." ”
"Where is this?" The two raised their heads and looked in front of them again, this time the two came to a place similar to a study, the room was quite large, there were many stone slabs carved with formations, bamboo slips and many weapons unique to southern Xinjiang, there were tables and chairs, scattered, Mu Yuan was dumbfounded and said: "It seems that we have found the lair of these cup masters." ”
"This formation ......" Chu Xunyu looked down at his feet blankly, "Isn't it used to trap prisoners, how did it bring us here?"
"I don't know, let's see. Mu Yuan walked to a stone case, there were a few Dai knives on display, at a glance, he knew that it was not ordinary, the edge of the blade was cold and uncertain, and there were a lot of strange words engraved on it, it seemed to be some kind of formation, Chu Xunyu followed, looked down and said: "These things are not ordinary, they are still so sharp after thousands of years, look at this posture, it was used by the cultivators in southern Xinjiang or their cup masters and head lowering masters, and the power is extraordinary." ”
"What is this?" Mu Yuan curiously pointed to the stone slabs on the wall next to him that were full of carved patterns, which depicted patterns of corpses, and there were many ancient Miao characters attached to them, which must be incomprehensible, but Mu Yuan still said quite proudly, " Although I don't know anything about medicine, but after knowing you for so many years, I can also see a thing or two, I guess it should be similar to those crazy people we met before, they all want to make a fuss about people's bodies, trying to live forever or shock the rivers and lakes, etc., anyway, it's not the first time we've met this kind of person, I didn't expect that there are people in the southern Xinjiang who do this. ”
"Nope. Chu Xunyu stared at these stone slabs and replied in surprise, "It has nothing to do with the body, you guessed wrong, although I can't read the words, but from the perspective of medical Taoism, these are not about the body, but ...... It's the soul...... These cups are to make movements on the soul. ”
"Soul?" Mu Yuanqi asked, "How can the soul be tossed?" Your ancestor Qinglianzi is just transforming the body, and he has never said that someone can transform the soul. ”
"No...... Some ......" Chu Xunyu gritted his teeth, "You don't know, I know very little, but this situation really existed in history, remember when I said that our family changed three signs before and after?"
"Well, I said it when I was in Longhu Mountain. Mu Yuan counted it on his fingers, "The first one is Qinglianzi, your chickens and dogs are restless, and they are hunted down by the entire rivers and lakes, and the second one you mentioned to me when you were a child, saying that there was a madman ancestor who made a big trouble in Chang'an City, and was given death by the Son of Heaven and Kunlun at that time, and then changed to today's mark, this is the one you are talking about?"
"Yes. Chu Xunyu nodded, "He is different from Qinglianzi, Qinglianzi's view is that the soul is above the body, and he thinks that the stinky skin can be transformed at will, has the ability to reach the sky, and finally causes a catastrophe; ”
"Good idea. Mu Yuan shrugged his shoulders, pointed to the wall and said, "Don't tell me that this is made by your ancestors again?
"Not really. Chu Xunyu smiled lightly, "This has nothing to do with our ancestors, there are many different ideas, but both have the same starting point, and they seem to value the soul more than the body." ”
Mu Yuan was happy: "No matter which is more important, anyway, you are an expert in this area, think about it, these cup masters in southern Xinjiang are really halfway monks, and there is no comparison with your family at all, you just need to think about what your ancestors said, then we can solve the mystery here and leave here, Ye Langzhong, the time has come to test your knowledge." ”
"Then I'm really a shallow learner...... Chu Xunyu pursed his lips stupidly, "What's that...... There are not many written records left of him, they are forbidden books, and I really haven't learned much, so our family generally heals the flesh, and there is little to be done in this regard. ”
"What?," Mu Yuan asked strangely, "It's all your own stuff, what else can't you forbid, you've never read it?"
"Can I blame this? I can't see it. Chu Xunyu said angrily, " Although the trouble he caused was not as big as the green lotus seed, so that he would not be hunted down and killed by the whole world, but his matter was a mess, which angered the people in power, and was jointly issued by the mortal world and the Xiuzhen world to our house, asking him to cut himself, otherwise he would order the world to destroy our family again, and after his death, the body must not be buried at will, it must be sent to Chang'an to be verified by their people, all the relics were confiscated and destroyed, even if they were not destroyed, they were sealed in Kunlun, and there must be a joint edict from the head of Kunlun and the emperor to open and view, what do I think at homeIt's just that I learned some unreliable rumors from the mouths of the older generation. ”
"You've proven the old saying. Mu Yuan said in a tone of hatred that iron does not become steel, "When the book is used, there is less hatred." You also use your knowledge to ridicule me all day long, and now it seems that you are also a crow and a pig black - I don't think so. ”
"You ......" Chu Xun's nose was crooked, "I don't bother to pay attention to you during the extraordinary period, and I will show you my knowledge when I get out." ”
"Then please show it now, old man. Mu Yuan pointed to the stone slab on the wall and said, "Don't wait for later, we'll go out as soon as you show it now." ”
"I ...... I can't show it!" Chu Xunyu replied categorically, this time he was defeated by Mu Yuan, and he couldn't answer the words, "The soul thing is not only our family's medical Tao, almost in Taoism, Buddhism, and the righteous path. The Demon Dao is involved, but there is almost no result, because this is a difficult coursework, even if it is our family, there is not much experience, Qinglianzi has also studied, I have read the classics at home, but it is just to say some points, and there is no afterword, these cup masters in southern Xinjiang are very strange to behave like this, such as you look at this. ”
Pointing to a stone slab on the right with his hand: "Obviously, the left side of the painting is a corpse, and the right side is a sharp knife that wants to ...... I want to cut the soul's hand open......"
"Cut?" Mu Yuan looked down at the knives placed below, pointed to one of them and said, "It seems to be this one, what do you do to cut the soul?"
"I don't know, I can't read these words. Chu Xunyu continued, "But it is a very strange thing in itself, the soul is not the big cake sold at your doorstep can be cut as you want, let's put it this way, for thousands of years, people can say that you have a disease in the brain, or a disease in the arms, legs, heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, etc., when have you ever heard that your soul is sick? The soul cannot be cut, stretched or flattened, like this." ”
After speaking, he stretched his hand to Mu Yuan's stomach, passed through the body, and retracted his hand to continue: "You can burn the soul, just like you did to the female ghost outside you, or you can devour it, such as the hand bones sealed in these emerald green stones, or you absorb it, kill it, etc., etc., there are countless such exercises in the world, but who have you heard that you can cut the soul into several pieces or make the soul sick?" Different from the body, the soul is formless and substantial, and you Buddhist monks are used as an analogy, for example, there is a zombie and a ghost standing in front of you, you can use the Buddha's light to burn its hand with the hand of the zombie, but you hold the hand of the ghost to launch the Buddha's light, but you have never seen it just burn a ghost hand or it screams in pain, and it is directly burned to ashes, that is because the essence of the soul and the body are completely different things, and the strange behavior of these cup masters to dismantle the soul is a very incomprehensible thing. ”
"But at least one thing is illustrated. Chu Xunyu raised his eyes and looked around, "At least it reveals the usefulness of this dungeon, no wonder so many souls are trapped, it turns out that this is where those cup masters collected souls back then, and some people were caught from outside to strip their souls out for research." ”
"What are you studying?" Mu Yuan asked curiously, "Even if they cut the soul or split it or something, what did they use it for?" ”
"Definitely not. Chu Xunyu replied, "Why they did this, or what they used to do is unknown, but it is difficult to imagine that these cup masters would do this, they have long given us the impression that they are nothing more than witchcraft, insects, etc., why are they suddenly so interested in the soul?"
"I know why. Mu Yuan was stunned and walked to a table, there was a green jade slab on it, there was a lot of dust, but there was a little peculiar, the ancient Miao characters on the jade plate were written neatly and orderly, and the deposit at the end was a big seal, and there was a word in the seal that was a small seal of the Han people - "Yunnan".
"It was Zhuang Ji who asked them to do this. Mu Yuan raised his head and said bluntly to Chu Xunyu, "This is the holy decree of their southern Xinjiang back then." ”
