Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 140 No Reincarnation

The man was possessed and held in his hand unable to move.

Even so, he still refused to confess.

"It's really stubborn."

The sun had set. Considering the return trip, Su Heng didn't want to waste time.

He took out a clay pot from his arms.

The pottery pot is the size of a palm, wrapped in a consecrated red cloth, with a Tai Chi diagram on the lid, a recruiting charm on the pot body, and small words such as "Zhixin Submission Ceremony" and "All soldiers and horses, listen to my order" engraved on the pot body.

This is a canister sent by Maoshan to send soldiers and horses. It was Su Heng's preparation for the experiment of containing the five soldiers and horses. He didn't expect it to come in handy here.

First collect the ghost and then hand it over to the City God for trial after entering the city.

Su Heng opened the jar of soldiers and horses and muttered something in his mouth. The small words on the jar shone out, creating a suction force, and then sucked in the soul of the spy man.

Su Heng closed the lid and said to Sakurako Hirata:

"I have taken away the man's soul. You stay to deal with the aftermath and appease the two family members."

"what?"

Su Heng left without waiting for Sakurako Hirata to react.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening after bidding farewell to the Xia family's mother and daughter. Su Heng did not choose to return to the Taoist temple, but took a detour to the City God's Temple.

He noticed that there were additional guardrails on the outside of the City God's Temple, and a temporary security booth was set up not far from the entrance.

"It's closed. If you want to burn incense, come back tomorrow!"

Hearing the footsteps, the new security guard said weakly, seeming very tired.

But when he saw Su Heng's appearance, he immediately became energetic:

"Ah, it turns out to be Taoist Master Xuanheng. Wait a moment, I will open the door for you!"

Not only do you know me, but you also know my Taoist number?

"All the basic information of the six Taoist priests is written in the employee handbook."

In order to avoid misunderstanding, the security guard took out the manual and Su Heng flipped through it. The photos of his uncle, his uncle, and his senior brother, including his own, were clearly visible along with the information.

"What did you do originally?"

Although the security guard looks young, he is tall and does not look like an ordinary person.

"Hey, I'm not talented. I was a special forces soldier before."

No wonder.

During the chat, Su Heng learned that the Chenghuang Temple was extremely popular, and pilgrims came one after another after hearing the news. The authorities set up additional security booths overnight, and planned to further strengthen the security system in the future.

"Thank you for your hard work." Su Heng handed over two pieces of mind-purifying charms. "When you feel tired, stick one on it to refresh your mind. In addition, the City God's Temple does not need to be closed at night."

The security guard took the spell, his eyes hard to hide:

"Okay, thank you, Taoist priest!"

When Su Heng entered the temple, neither the City God nor Judge Wu were there, and there were only two Ba Zaoli left.

Judge Wen explained:

"My lord is going on a cruise. It will probably take three o'clock to come back."

Out on a cruise?

Su Heng could already imagine the city god riding a tall horse and wandering around the ninth district with a group of young men.

"Is there something wrong, Taoist Master?"

"There's a little thing."

Su Heng opened the lid of the weapon jar and released the ghost he had just captured.

The moment the ghost just ran out, he wanted to run away, but was knocked to the ground by two slaves with a stick, screaming miserably.

"You still want to run when you get here?"

"Are you really treating your buddy as a freeloader?"

"Stop fighting! Stop fighting! Why can you still hit me when I'm already dead!"

"Look what you said, brother is not a living person! Stand still for me!"

"Stand at attention and get beaten!" After the ghost was subdued, Su Heng said with relief:

"The thing is like this..."

Three minutes later, Judge Wen nodded:

"Torture is a waste of time. It's better to let Zaoli take him to the Hall of Ecstasy. After drinking the Ecstasy water, there will be no more secrets. If you have the news, just let Zaoli talk to him."

"So good."

"Row."

After explaining the trivial matters, Su Heng was about to leave, but was stopped by Judge Wen:

"Sir, wait a minute, there's something I need to tell you."

It turned out that during the past two days, Judge Wen always felt that this was something strange that Fang Tian could not explain, so he started to investigate.

"Taoist Master, I said last time that humans have three souls and seven souls. After death, the soul returns to heaven and the body returns to earth. Do you remember?"

"kindness."

"The accurate process is that after a person dies, the heavenly soul returns to heaven, the earthly soul descends to the underworld, and the human soul is trapped in the cemetery until the soul power is exhausted and dissipates between heaven and earth. Previously, there was no underworld. After a person died, heaven and earth The two souls have nowhere to return, so the human soul wanders around the world. Over time, it naturally becomes a lonely ghost."

"The Taoist Master has opened up the underworld, and the souls of the earth have taken refuge. However, the road to heaven has not been opened, and we cannot sense where the way of heaven is. Without the way of heaven, the soul of heaven cannot shine, and reincarnation cannot be completed with only two souls of earth and human. .”

"In other words, now we can only enter and exit the underworld?"

"Yes, unless the road to heaven is opened, these tens of millions of ghosts will also be unable to pass away and will not be reincarnated."

"No reincarnation."

Sounds a bit bad.

Su Heng knew a thing or two about how to open the way to heaven. After all, it was all recorded in the Sutra of Saving People.

It's just that right now, he can't do it with his current state.

"How long can the underworld last?"

"If we only have this place, it won't be a problem to hold on for another ten to eight years."

Ten to eight years is okay, not imminent.

"There is no rush to open the road to heaven, but there is a very strange situation."

It is known that the three souls of a person have a place to go after death, but what about the seven souls?

The seven souls are corpse dog, fuya, sparrow yin and silkworm thief, which are non-poisonous, filth-repelling and stinking lungs. They are also called joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil and desire.

After the human soul resides in the womb, its energy is distributed on the seven chakras of the human body. These seven chakras are also seven energy fields, thus forming the seven souls of the human body.

The human soul is the root of the seven souls, and the seven souls are the branches and leaves of the human soul. If there is no soul, there will be no life; if there is no soul, there will be no prosperity. This is "destiny".

"Under normal circumstances, after the human soul leaves the body, the seven souls will gradually disappear. But this is not the case in this world."

Judge Wen preliminarily concluded that this was the age of the five turbidities. People cultivated their lives instead of cultivating their natures. They focused on the exercise of the body, neglected the cultivation of essence and spirit, and indulged in carnal desires. This led to the reversal of the priorities of the human soul and the seven souls.

"Reversed priorities?"

Judge Wen nodded:

"After the reversal of priorities, the seven souls gave birth to independent consciousness. The human soul is no longer the controller, and humans are controlled by the seven souls. They can be moody, indulgent, sensual, and dissolute..."

This is indeed the case in this materialistic society.

"Indulgence is secondary. After the main person dies, the Seven Souls do not dissipate. Instead, they linger in the world and continue to control the human soul." Judge Wen looked worried, "The lonely wild ghosts controlled by the Seven Souls are full of hostility. They are irrational and unable to communicate. Over time, they will form a black evil and cause harm to the world."

Could this be the truth behind the formation of evil spirits?

"What is quite strange is that most of the seven souls went in two directions after leaving the body."

"Which two directions?"

"The six souls of joy, anger, sadness, fear, evil, and desire seem to be inspired and go to the northeast. Only the soul of love goes to the southwest."

Combined with the location of District 9, the northeast direction should be outside the safe zone. As for the southwest direction, isn’t that District 1?

"As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a monster. I hope the Taoist priest will pay more attention to this matter."

"understood."
