All living beings in hell

Chapter 102 Chapter 055:[-] - Soul Exchange Experimenter

The lotus lantern at the door was lit up, and the office welcomed customer No. [-].

"The weather is starting to heat up, my lord."

As the door opened, a gust of breeze blew in.I don't know if the fire of the catastrophe in hell has been burnt out, but today's wind is light and dry.

The guest came to the table with its giant bird claws. It has a long neck and white feathers. This guest has the head of a seagull, a pair of black round-frame glasses in front of his eyes, and a lovely black pendant on his chest. A bow tie, and a small purple velvet bag slung across his body.Although it looks like a seabird, its every move is like a knowledgeable professor.

"Good night, write." The guest's voice was very gentlemanly, and he squatted on the wooden chair with his paws tucked under his body.

"What should I call you?" I asked.

"Chuan Baibai, you can call me Mr. Chuan."

I wrote Chuan Baibai's name on the paper with a quill pen: "Okay Mr. Chuan, may I ask why you are looking for me today?"

"I want to discuss with you, the writer, about the future."

"What will happen in the future?"

"Nothing wrong, about the future."

Chuan Baibai took out a deck of cards from the purple velvet bag and put them on the wooden table.He skillfully laid out the cards. It was a deck of Werther Tarot cards.Chuan Baibai drew out a card at random, and turned it over, it was a fool's card.The fool on the card is about to start a brand new journey. With a small bag on his shoulder and a small white flower in his hand, he happily walks on the edge of the cliff, completely oblivious to the danger under his feet.

"Do you know how to play Tarot cards, Mr. Writer?"

"meeting."

Chuan Baibai pushed his glasses and showed a satisfied smile: "Then let's ask about the future."

"Why do you want to ask about the future?"

"You see that the world is so turbulent, the more sure you are about the future, the more stable the present will be."

"That's not necessarily the case, maybe it's the opposite. The more you know, the more you worry. Worrying about things that haven't happened is tiring."

"But if you know a little more, you don't know a little less, right?"

"The future is always unknown. The charm of the future lies in its infinite possibilities. In the process of divination, what we do is to make reasonable deduction based on the current situation, rule out some possibilities, and then explore some other possibilities .Before the future comes, everything still depends on what you actually do, and the unknown will always exist."

"My lord, why are you so resistant to divination of the future?"

"It's not a resistance. My job in hell is a civil official, as long as I'm in charge of writing records. I'm not a tarot fortune teller. Tarot fortune telling is beyond the scope of my job. Even if I have the ability, I won't do it."

Chuan Baibai pushed his glasses again: "The writing master is very principled."

"Is there anything else you want to tell about besides the future?"

"My lord, do you know why I care so much about the future?"

"Please tell me, I will record it truthfully."

Chuan Baibai sighed: "I was actually a human being when I was alive. It was witchcraft that turned me into a seabird."

"what happened?"

"What I'm going to say next may sound fanciful, but every sentence is true. It's definitely not something I made up."

"There are so many mysterious and mysterious things in this hell, and the so-called common sense in the world is rare. Please tell me."

"My lord, do you believe in magic?"

Instead of answering him, I poured Chuan Baibai a cup of hot tea.Chuan Baibai held the hot teacup with his wings and continued talking.

"I was originally a highly respected professor, specializing in theology and magic. I have always believed that if humans can combine magic and technology, it must be the progress of the entire human civilization."

"What is the magic you mean?"

"Magic is magic, including magic circles, ideas, herbal research, reagent preparation, spiritual guidance, etc. In fact, every child has the talent to develop this ability, but most of them grow up and live in the material world. It's been too long, and I've forgotten."

"Then how do you plan to combine magic and technology?"

"For example, space purification! Writer, you know that white sage or white crystal can purify the magnetic field in an area."

"Ah."

"If technology can be used to maximize the function of magnetic field purification, a single sage plant can purify a space of ten square meters. A way to save energy and increase efficiency?"

"The things you said already exist in 2022. Are you from that era?"

"What? Is it 2022 in the world now? Time flies so fast...I died in 1783."

"How did you end up in hell?"

"Hey, I probably did too many experiments with animals..."

"What experiments do you do with animals?"

"Soul exchange."

"Soul exchange? How is this exchanged?"

"I have always believed in the existence of the soul, and in order to confirm this, I have done a lot of experimental research."

Chuan Baibai continued to push his glasses.

"For example, swapping the souls of cats and dogs, orangutans and roosters... But animal research is limited after all. You can only guess whether the experiment is successful by observing the actual behavior of these animals. But if it is a human soul The exchange between them may be much more convenient..."

"Have you done human experiments?"

Chuan Baibai began to hem and haw: "Yes... yes... I... in order to get the college's approval... I... I did..."

"what have you done?"

"In the beginning, men and women were recruited, and then old people and children were used... But the experiments are not always successful... Sometimes, if they are exchanged, they cannot be exchanged... There are also cases like this... But the college Always think my research is useless...they think...all I'm looking for...all I'm looking for are actors! Too! Too much..."

"What happened to those whose souls could not be exchanged?"

"Any great progress always has victims, doesn't it?"

"Oh, so they died for your experiment."

"I was one of the victims myself...Look at me, my lord. I was transferred into the body of a seagull. And that stupid seabird soul thought it could fly, and took my body from I jumped out of the tower on the seventh floor. My body just disappeared!"

"Then you have confirmed the existence of the soul now, then what?"

"This is a great discovery! It proves that we are immortal, doesn't it!"

"You proved that the soul is immortal, then what?"

"In this way, maybe death won't be so scary."

"Chuan Baibai, you proved the prolongation of life in a way that disrespects life. If your original intention was to tell people the truth about death, isn't the whole process a little bit upside down? And you didn't have time to tell people about your As a result of your research, you die, don’t you?”

"Put the cart before the horse? What do you mean by writing?" Chuan Baibai suddenly raised his tone, sounding dissatisfied with my judgment.

"The body is the carrier of the soul, and the soul is the filling of the body. The two complement each other and should not be separated at will. Every soul who comes to this world and chooses such a body is determined by their life issues. Caused. You are doing the experiment of exchanging souls at will, just to prove the existence of souls, isn't it somewhat disrespectful of the relationship between souls and bodies?"

"I want to prove that the soul can exist without the body, so that it can prove that we humans are immortal!"

"But a soul without a body is just a soul, not a human being.

Look at me, my physical body is gone, and now I am left with a human spirit body working in hell. I cannot be called a perfect person, because my current state cannot have the experience of continuing to live in the human world.Human beings can't see me, can't touch me, and naturally I can't interact with them in life.

And the entire social operation of human beings lies in the interaction and connection between people, which I can no longer experience.

But from another perspective, my current state is indeed immortal, and I can stay in hell forever.

Chuan Baibai, look at me now.What about immortality? "

"Immortality can do many, many things!"

"Your current state is immortal, Chuan Baibai, what are you going to do?"

"I will continue to work hard for the progress of human civilization!"

"How are you going to work hard?"

"I'm going to keep proving the value of souls and making people understand the value of people's souls so they respect souls."

"What counts as respecting the soul?"

"Respect, respect is faith, believe that you have a soul, and the body is just a temporary body."

"so what?"

"Don't you think this is very important, my lord?"

"I think it's important for people to recognize the existence of their soul, but I think it's equally important for people to recognize the value of their own body."

"Since the body will disappear sooner or later, why is the body still so important?"

"Because..." I looked at Chuan Baibai and sighed softly, "Every life experience is precious and unique, and the prerequisite for a soul to enjoy these experiences is to have a body."

"My lord, you don't have a body, so aren't you living a pretty good life now?"

"These are two different things. Human beings have their own ways of living, and souls like me have their own laws of existence. They cannot be confused."

Chuan Baibai put away the Tarot cards from the table with his wings: "It seems that we can't play Tarot today."

"What were you thinking when you were drawing cards just now?" I asked him.

"I'm thinking about my current state."

"Fool, reverse position."

"How do you say it, my lord?"

"As I said, I don't understand the cards."

"Maybe if you draw a few more to see the future, it will be different."

"If the concept has not changed, it is just going around in the time loop. You have moved from 1783 to the present, and you have drawn a lot of cards about the future, right?"

Chuan Baibai didn't speak, he seemed to be thinking about something.

"Maybe I shouldn't have used the tarot."

"It's not about the cards, it's about you."

Chuan Baibai cleared his throat: "So the conclusion of today's conversation is that the body is as important as the soul."

"Yes."

"I can't agree with this point of view for the time being, but I will write it down and do research to verify it later."

"Very rigorous scientist, then you go."

"May I ask you for a letter of recommendation for reincarnation, my lord?"

"why?"

"I need to go back to the world to do research to prove that the body is as important as the soul."

"No."

"Why!" Chuan Baibai patted the table angrily, looking very dissatisfied.

"There is no reason. If you are dissatisfied, go directly to Granny Meng and explain the reason. She is in charge of reincarnation. If she is not willing, it is useless for me to write a letter of recommendation."

"It's because she doesn't want to, that's why I came to you!"

"For now, not yet."

"You hell officials! I've been trapped here for hundreds of years! Why! What I'm going to do is a great thing! It's something that will help all mankind! You little officials are just playing bureaucracy Doctrine! Can't trap me! Can't trap me!"

Chuan Baibai stood up from his chair angrily, hopping on the ground, and his previous gentleness was gone.

"It's almost time today."

"Write, you wait, sooner or later I want you to look good!"

"Because I have a grudge for not fulfilling your reasons, and have thoughts of revenge in the future. Hell is very suitable for a soul like you, and here, everything is immortal and your wish is fulfilled."

"you you!"

I waved the jade bracelet on my wrist, and the door of the office opened.

"It's time, please."

Chuan Baibai glared at me viciously, turned around and left without looking back.
