Chapter 498 The evil poster should be the king of the trapped people
Good and evil coexist or good and evil offset?
This has already involved the future trial process of all sentient beings in Xuanzhengzhou.
The sky above the underworld gathers the power of heaven and earth, purple air and green clouds cover the cloudy sky, and the sound of Tianyin jade shakes the earth.Boundless Haotian seems to be looking forward to the end of this court trial.
"It's a bit difficult to handle." Qinghong frowned, only to see the moral suzerain and others next to him also showing similar expressions.They have also seen that this trial of Emperor Kangdi is not only a venting of anger, but also a typical case.
Emperor Kangdi has a lot of merits. Over the years of governing the country and the blessing of the dragon spirit of the national fortune, it is enough to offset the karma with his merits.Even if he offends the gods, even if he destroys the temple, his merits can eliminate karma.
If Kanti is to be tried, it also means that "good and evil offset" will not be allowed in the future.Not only Emperor Kang, but also the immortals of the immortal sect or the gods of the two worlds cannot offset good and evil.And the ones who have a greater impact should be ordinary people.
After all, no one has faults. Ordinary people often make mistakes. If all merits are denied because of a certain fault, then many virtuous people will not be able to reincarnate with peace of mind. I am afraid they will go to hell for a turn.
At first, the gods had the idea of revenge on Emperor Kang, wanting to see him end up as he deserved.But seeing that the underworld made a big fuss about this matter, and after seeing the far-reaching impact, I had to calm down and meditate.
Even if it is for the sake of other people, it cannot simply consider revenge against Emperor Kang.
Seeing the gods lost in thought, the four former emperors secretly laughed in their hearts.
They have already guessed that this matter is not simple.Trial Kanti?Consider the trial process of your underworld first!
The values of the Underworld, the values of Immortals, the values of Shinto and the values of mortals are completely different.What is good and what is evil, I am afraid that different schools have different ideas.Not to mention the different ideas of the Demon Sect, how could it be possible for the trial of Kangdi to go smoothly this time if they were used as shit sticks?
Emperor Zhuang thought to himself: "There are too many loopholes in the trial system of the underworld. Originally, they were judged alone in the underworld, and the immortals and demons in the yang world couldn't reach them. But they just wanted to play this game, and they insisted on standing up in front of the immortals. Then let the trial end without a problem today. , let your hell lose face!"
He winked at a lawyer next to him.The litigator stepped forward and saluted all the immortal families: "Dare to ask all the immortal families, what do you think is good and what is evil?"
Palace Master Taiyuan took a deep look at the litigant, his deep eyes seemed to see through people's hearts.The litigator hurriedly lowered his head, only to hear the palace lord say indifferently: "The most important thing in exploring the heavens in the immortal way lies in obedience and disobedience. Obedience to the heavens is good, and disobedience to the heavens is evil."
"No." The moral suzerain immediately retorted: "Besides the heart of heaven, there are still people who are obedient and unfavorable. It is good to benefit all living beings, and evil to harm all living beings."
"Friend Daoist, as you said. Is it good to kill thousands of people to save one person?" Taiyuan Palace Master clapped his hands and laughed: "There are no absolutes, and there is no boundary between good and evil. Your so-called moral principles of good and evil are in the way of heaven. It's just a joke in front of you."
Not to mention immortals and demons, the concept of good and evil within the immortal way, and the concepts they involve are different.Following the disagreement between Taiyuan Palace and Daodezong, a certain immortal family next to the Taiyuan Palace Master laughed mockingly: "Fellow Daoist, is your theory of good and evil morals the idea of the entire Daodezong, or the idea of Dezong's lineage?"
"This..." The suzerain was speechless.That's right, even within the Daodezong, there are still ideological disputes!
Seeing what happened to his friend, the Taiqing Patriarch immediately changed the topic: "Forge good causes and reap good results. Sow evil causes and receive evil rewards. This is the right way. How can good and evil be separated and confused with each other? In the view of the poor, good Rewards can be rewarded, but evil should be punished. As a human king, Kangdi has great merits and virtues. In the future, he may reincarnate to enjoy wealth and honor for ten generations, or enjoy bliss in the underworld. But the evil karma created during his lifetime must also be repaid by the gods. Repay the evil karma Then reincarnate and enjoy happiness."
He brought the matter back to Kanti, apparently not intending to continue to entangle the so-called distinction between good and evil.How many years has this disagreement lasted in Xuanmen?To be honest, there are differences between him and his friends!
But the people of Longting will naturally not let go of the contradictions within the Immortal Dao, and the Demon Sect will not miss this good opportunity.So the leader of the Southern Demon Sect laughed and said, "I am an extraordinary person, I don't care about the good and evil in the world. All things compete, this is the way of heaven. Isn't it too ridiculous for you in the immortal way to cling to the mortal's view of good and evil?"
The southern leader tends to balance good and evil, and it is best that heavenly merits offset human faults.Who can say no to killing thousands of people and following the way of heaven?
The faces of the great monarchs were as sinking as water, and they sat quietly at the top and listened to the debates of the various orthodoxy below.
Has Heaven's Kungfu reached people?I'm afraid that the magic way will kill all the races directly!After all, to heaven and earth, the human race is nothing more than a race, not irreplaceable.
"Indeed." Several gods on the Shinto side nodded.The southern leader was overjoyed at first, but then he was provoked by these gods.
Yishen said: "It is difficult to deal with problems from the perspective of a bystander if you are obsessed with the good and evil of mortals. But from the perspective of transcendence, for the continuation of mortals, a universal moral concept is also inevitable. This point , There is nothing wrong with Taoism. The way of immortality is stronger than demons."
"Hmph!" The southern leader glared at the god, and the protector, who was revered by mortals, also looked back.Those calm starry eyes seemed to accommodate the starry sky world without causing any waves.
To put it bluntly, what the gods value is not just the interests of the individual "human", but from the perspective of the continuation of the entire race.
How to adjust so that the human race can last for a long time?How to fix it so as to avoid the fate of destruction?
Carrying the incense and sacrifices of mortals, they are indeed obliged to protect mortals.But all of this is based on the "covenant between man and god".It is the entire human race that makes a contract with the gods, not a certain human individual.
Throughout the thousands of years of the prosperity of human nature, many great masters have the support of gods behind them.Through these people, the gods gradually improved and guided various industries such as pottery, textiles, and catering, and led the barbaric humans to civilization.This is the return of the gods for offering sacrifices to mortals from generation to generation.
"The eyes of mortals only watch the day and night, but the eyes of gods can see thousands of years."
"For the continuation of human beings, order and morality must exist." It may be changed or changed, changing with the times, but order must exist.
This is humanity.
"So the god thinks that it is good to follow the human way and maintain the human way?" Emperor Zhuang immediately caught the loophole in the words of the god You'an.
Qinghong thought something was wrong: Admitting that maintaining humanity is good, isn't the King of Humanity, who is the symbol of humanity, the ultimate good?no!Can't let Emperor Kang get off the crime smoothly, otherwise how will there be order in the underworld?
Following Emperor Zhuang's words, everyone in the Longting family looked at them with expressions on their faces.
The faces of the Taoist immortals and gods changed, and they immediately thought about countermeasures.
"Cough cough..." Qinghong coughed lightly: "Humanity is the way of everything, but all sentient beings in the world are in the category of humanity. There are no exceptions. [-]. Classified in detail, still in the duality of good and evil."
What Qinghong said naturally bypassed the topic of "the king of men represents humanity" and turned back to the theory of good and evil.
Daoist Chongxu understood his thoughts in an instant, and said, "I advocate the balance of good and evil. But we have to divide heavenly merit and human virtue into two. Heavenly merit cancels out the karma of the heavenly way, and human virtue counteracts the karma of human evil. How about this?"
Another fairy immediately retorted: "Huh! If you can redeem your sins and use your merit to offset your karma, isn't it true that the murderers are the ones who cultivate the most meritorious virtues? I am afraid that even the murderers in the world will seek meritorious deeds." Bar?"
A certain litigator on the side of Longting immediately said: "If a person does good because of doing evil, it will also increase the number of good things in the world. Isn't it the right way to abandon evil and do good?"
"Yellow-mouthed child, don't you hear that 'doing good with your heart is not good?'"
"Is the fairy teacher referring to 'If you do good with your heart, you will not be rewarded even if you are good. If you do evil without intention, you will not be punished even if you are evil'? But in this way, how can it reflect the difference between good and evil?" According to the law, anyone who picks up gold can get [-]% of the reward. Before this law, many people picked up gold and kept it for themselves. But since the promulgation of this law, people often return what they got to the owner. Does the immortal think that this Shouldn't a person who takes the initiative to do good deeds be rewarded?"
Inexplicably, Qinghong thought of the story of "Zigong redeeming people" in his previous life.
There are laws in the state of Lu, and rewards can be obtained for redeeming the people of the country.Zigong was blamed by Confucius for not rewarding people for his redemption.The Master said: "Give and lose! A sage's deeds can change customs and customs, and teaching can be given to the people. It is not just for oneself. Today, the rich are few and the poor are many in the state of Lu. Taking the money will not harm the practice, not If you take the money, you will not be able to redeem people."
"The litigator is referring to enlightenment, right?"
People in the world are often foolish and cannot reach the height of a saint, so naturally they cannot meet the standards of a saint.It needs to be guided step by step.Tell them that doing good deeds and accumulating virtue can eliminate crimes, and perhaps make the atmosphere of the world right.
The Wheel-Running King nodded silently. In the past, the ten great rulers of the underworld established the trial system to guide mortals to do good deeds.
"It is impossible for a mortal to not make mistakes in his life. If they continue to do good deeds because they fear the punishment of the underworld, it will actually be of great help to the enlightenment of the world." Another god was moved.Compared with the dispute between Shendao and Kangdi, if the humane way can be further developed, this is the top priority.For this reason, he is willing to temporarily put aside personal grievances.
"So, your Excellency also tends to offset good and evil?"
"more or less."
The Lord of Five Poisons looked around, and many gods showed similar expressions, so he said, "Speaking of which, I saw an interesting thing before I came to the underworld."
Shenjun cleared his throat: "Before I came, I saw a group of people grabbing a killer and trying to smash him to death. It is said that this person killed a kind man who was kind and generous, so the people who were favored by the good man are ready to avenge their benefactor."
A former Yin king frowned: "It's a good thing to know how to repay your kindness."
Shenjun: "But after careful questioning, I found out that there is a hidden secret in it." At this point, Shenjun made a fool of himself and glanced at the many high-level people present: "Guess, everyone, what is the hidden secret in it?"
Yu Luocha thought about it, and Her Majesty the Queen smiled: "Could it be that people who hold a grudge against a good man can't understand the enemy he has made because of his good deeds?"
"Even if it doesn't hit, it's not far away."
Qinghong's heart moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "Could it be that the good man was a hypocritical good man. He had an enmity with the killer's relatives, robbed his family's property, and killed his family. In the second half of his life, he used the money from the killer's family to do good, so he was killed by the killer." revenge?"
"Fellow Daoist is really smart, that's right. The good man was a thief in the first half of his life, because he killed hundreds of merchants and travelers in the mountains, and took their money to do his best. The killer was the son of one of the merchants. Later The robber felt ashamed, so he took out his money to do good deeds and benefited the people. The people were very grateful to him, and even set up a longevity tablet for him, offering incense day and night. If there is no accident, we will be the same in a hundred years. It is a pity that he was killed by a killer, and his soul went to the underworld. Do you think this killer should be blamed, and how should this so-called robber and good man be dealt with?"
After hearing this, the Goddess of Yinshan quietly asked the Four Faces King.Four Faces Wang Fayan looked towards the gate of hell and nodded silently.Indeed, at the entrance of the gate of hell, there is a "good man" who has encountered such a situation.With a confused look on his face, he was walking towards the ghost capital with a golden light of merit and killing spirit.
The Taiqing Sect Master pondered: "This kind of person... If he uses good and evil to offset, I'm afraid it will be unfair to the killer's family and other innocent people who died in vain. But if he doesn't use good and evil to offset, how can his merit be counted? After all, the merit of the second half of his life True."
When the senior people heard about this case, they felt troubled.
At this moment, Qinghong got up and said to the immortals: "I am shallow in my way, but I can listen to your high opinions. It is nothing more than the difference between heaven and man, the difference between good and evil. If this is the case, why not look at it in a different direction?" He lifted the golden crown on the top , there is a dense air that transforms into Qingyun, holding up 24 orbs, and wisps of black and yellow air shine down.
"Our so-called merits and virtues come from the two realms of heaven and man. The merits and virtues of heaven and earth, more straightforwardly, are the favor of the laws of heaven and earth. As we follow the heavens and the way, we are in harmony with the law of the universe, and thus we can obtain Good luck."
Under the mysterious and yellow aura, a piece of purple-green aura condensed to the Immortal Heavenly Pillar suddenly emerged.Qinghongli has 24 solar terms, which caters to the general trend of the water element in the world, so it enjoys the luck of the heaven and the earth, and the strength of the luck is not weak.
After hearing this, all the immortals around nodded their heads in agreement.
"This kind of luck comes with the sky, but anyone with luck will be killed." Having said that, the immortals silently looked at the leaders of the demonic way.Isn't the reason why these giants of the demon sect can survive is that the heavenly dao has endless luck, making it impossible for the immortal dao to kill them easily?
Back then, when he killed a Toad Palace Earth Immortal, Pavilion Master Fang of Yunxiao Pavilion prepared to spend 3000 years slowly exhausting his luck before finally succeeding.After all, this real land immortal is in harmony with the heaven and the earth, so it is difficult to kill him easily.
The leaders stared back, with a sneer on their faces.
"And the merits of humanity are similar to the power of incense and vows of the gods. If you help someone, you will be thanked for it." Qinghong stretched out his hand and pointed: "Everyone, please look." Following his finger, a thread as thin as a spider's silk The golden light fell into the sea of fire and purgatory, and fell in front of a certain evil spirit.
Seeing the golden thread, the evil spirit immediately reached out and grabbed the spider thread, trying to escape from the flames.But he escaped halfway along the golden thread, and the spider silk golden thread broke immediately, causing him to fall into the flames again.
"Condensing the power of humanism into a rope is certainly a road to liberation, but unfortunately it is not suitable for everyone."
Qinghong's talk made Yinming's gaze flicker, and his heart was vigilant: "This Taoist Qinghong is indeed a talent in the Taoist sect, it seems that if he wants to suppress the trend of Yunxiao Pavilion, he can only start from Ji Feichen. The suzerain immediately thought of "increasing chips" for Ji Feichen.
Why Ji Feichen wants to separate into two bodies, one of the main reasons is that both sides can take all.With the great prosperity of the immortal body, the Demon Sect will actively promote the progress of the demon body in order to contain the immortal body.And the demonic body surpasses the immortal body, and you can use the power of Xuanmen to cultivate the immortal incarnation.The two compete with each other, fight each other left and right, and play with the immortals and demons between applause.
Sect Master Yinming thought to himself: "The 20-year agreement seems to be a good plan for Qinghong. It's best to send him to meet his patriarch while killing robbery!"
At this time, Qinghong returned to his seat again: "A little insight, I hope you can gain something."
After hearing Qinghong's words, several Nether Lords began to discuss with each other.After a while, a boy from Taishang Blissland brought the Taoist decree.The maharajas sat down again after referring to the exchange.
The King of Four Faces took a deep breath, stood up and said solemnly: "The way of the underworld is neither good nor evil. From now on, it all depends on the living beings themselves."
As soon as this remark came out, the heart of heaven shook, and the path of the Netherworld immediately shifted.
The original intention of the establishment of the underworld was to define the way of good and evil, punish evil and promote good.But at this moment, the underworld is more moderate, it has nothing to do with good and evil, and it all depends on the sentient beings themselves.
All the demon masters were delighted accordingly.As long as the underworld no longer judges good and evil, and all beings in the world are not afraid of revenge after death, then the great prosperity of the evil way is just around the corner!
Doing good is not good, and it will not be recorded by the underworld, so who in the world will do it?Doing good and doing evil will be treated the same, so that all living beings in the world will be tempted to degenerate, just flipping hands!
The faces of all the devils were happy, and then the goddess of Yinshan stood up: "The world of mortals is a sea of suffering, and all living beings go to hell. But the souls of mortals who die in the world are thrown into the underworld, and they should go to hell."
Everyone, regardless of good or evil, is going to hell!
After the Yinshan Goddess finished speaking, the Rakshasa King said, "Heaven's heart is the most merciful, and it never stops the way of sentient beings. If you have the fortune of heaven and earth, you can fly away from hell on the rainbow bridge. If you have a chance, you can enter the realm of supreme bliss." .”
Dark Sun Ghost King: "If you are a human being and all people are willing to strengthen your body, you can be a rope to escape from the sea of suffering."
Wheel-running king: "Anyone who leaves the region and has no karma or debts can enter the wheel of reincarnation."
When Qinghong heard what the ghost kings said, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
To put it bluntly, what you ghost kings mean is that everything is done across the board.No matter how much merit and karma you have in the human world, go to hell first.As for how to leave hell, it all depends on the "blessings" accumulated during life.
If you have ever done things in the human world, such as treating wasteland, greening deserts, etc., after entering hell, you will be sent out of hell by your luck in life as a rainbow bridge.And if you have benefited all people and accumulated the power of all people, it will be the golden thread twisting the rope to pull you out of hell.Some people have done evil all their lives, even if they only did one good deed during their lifetime, they can still get a golden thread as thin as a spider's silk as the road to liberation and transcendence.But the premise is that he can leave the sea of evil caused by his karma during his lifetime.
It is self-evident whether one person's gratitude, coupled with the resentment of thousands of people, can escape hell with the help of a life-saving rope as thin as a spider's silk.
"However, there are endless paths for people in the underworld. Even the treacherous and evil people who have committed endless crimes can also obtain the way of detachment and salvation."
Although the new system formulated by the underworld cannot satisfy everyone.But the vast majority of people have been taken care of.
As long as you have accumulated enough merits and karma during your lifetime to make others feel grateful, or let the heavens favor you, you will be able to escape from the evil sea hell after death.
With the five ghost kings jointly revising the underworld system, the purple air outside the hall rushed into the dark cloud sky, and Bi Bixia condensed into sapphire slabs and slowly fell onto the mirror hall.Set down the trial regulations re-enacted by the underworld.
What the five ghost kings said was just the initial basic idea.But there are still hundreds of supplementary rules densely packed, and it is necessary to ensure that there are no loopholes in the new trial system.
The law was established, and endless black water spewed out from the underworld, turning into a sea of evil and covering the world of the underworld.
"Kangdi, you are the king of humanity, the representative of humanity, so please be the first to enjoy this sea of evil!" The dark sun ghost king stretched out his hand and pushed Kangdi into the sea of evil.
A lot of dark red evil spirits rose from the evil sea, turning into 48 wraiths to attack and bite Kangdi in the sea of karma.But at the same time, a golden light of merit rose from his body, turning into a thick golden rope, dragging him slowly away from Nie Hai Hell.
The Wheel-Turning King looked at the gods around him, and kindly reminded him: "Only when the cause and effect are resolved can we ascend to bliss."
The gods suddenly understood, and turned into magic forms one after another, and various demon gods appeared in the sea of evil.These demon gods dragged Kanti down below, preventing him from leaving hell.
The golden rope was wobbly, almost causing Kangdi to fall into the sea of evil again several times.
"The internal time of Nie Hai is different from that of the outside world, and with the inspiration of the gods manifesting, a hundred years can be counted in the blink of an eye. Therefore, Kangdi's punishment has a total of 300 years."
Emperor Kang endured "300 years" in the sea of evil before barely escaping from the sea of evil.
Seeing his pale face and dim aura, Emperor Zhuang sighed, and sent someone to take care of him: This time he was damaged by the gods, so he might not be able to arrange a 33-day formation at all, right?The 33 Earth Immortal candidates of the Ancestral God are still to be discussed.
However, this is still a balance between good and evil, right?The masters of the Demon Sect carefully looked at it, and thought to themselves: From this point of view, if we go to hell after death, we don’t have to worry about anything.After all, we can accumulate some good deeds.
At this time, King Rakshasa pointed to the sapphire stele beside him.Among the hundreds of densely packed articles above, it is impressively written that "heavenly skills can offset human virtues".
There are hundreds of clauses densely packed, almost blocking all possibilities of exploiting loopholes.Moreover, the birth of a brand new Niehai Hell also means that at least one Earth Immortal, or even a strong person at the level of Celestial Immortal will be born from it in the future.This evil sea is the root of the underworld's growth.
It's just that when everyone was distracted by the re-establishment of order in the underworld, Qinghong secretly turned a Yangshen thought to go to the ancient Qi Longting.
"Brother, the hour has come, you should be reincarnated."
Tu Shan turned into a breeze and came, he smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, while the wheel-turning king's attention is not here, my brother will be reincarnated quickly. At that time, we will be able to take over Dahong Jiangshan, and all this will be considered complete."
The two teamed up to help King Yin of the ancient Qi enter reincarnation, and entered the world at the moment of Nie Hai's birth. They happened to avoid other people's perception, and used the strategy of crossing the sea to conceal the plan that Qing Hong and Tu Shan had prepared earlier.

This chapter was a bit difficult to write.In fact, after yesterday's update was uploaded, I regretted it a bit?Why do we have to mention the metaphysical philosophical thought of the concept of good and evil?As a result, I was unable to get off the tiger, and it was really difficult to write this chapter.If your ideas are different from yours, please be tolerant and seek common ground while reserving differences.

Some readers have reported that the results of the previous chapter were directly published, and there was no content to argue about.In fact, I am worried that readers will say that I have too many words, and I will delay the progress of the plot.The intention is to add some content later.At present, this chapter has [-] words. I believe some readers know the allusions of Zigong Redemption better than me, a "half bucket of water".As for some of the controversial views in the article, they are actually the views I collected from other readers and friends after I asked them.Thanks to the readers who helped with this.

"The eyes of mortals only watch the day and night, but the eyes of gods can see thousands of years."
"For the continuation of human beings, order and morality must exist." It may be changed or changed, changing with the times, but order must exist.
This is humanity.
"So the god thinks that it is good to follow the human way and maintain the human way?" Emperor Zhuang immediately caught the loophole in the words of the god You'an.
Qinghong thought something was wrong: Admitting that maintaining humanity is good, isn't the King of Humanity, who is the symbol of humanity, the ultimate good?no!Can't let Emperor Kang get off the crime smoothly, otherwise how will there be order in the underworld?
Following Emperor Zhuang's words, everyone in the Longting family looked at them with expressions on their faces.
The faces of the Taoist immortals and gods changed, and they immediately thought about countermeasures.
"Cough cough..." Qinghong coughed lightly: "Humanity is the way of everything, but all sentient beings in the world are in the category of humanity. There are no exceptions. [-]. Classified in detail, still in the duality of good and evil."
What Qinghong said naturally bypassed the topic of "the king of men represents humanity" and turned back to the theory of good and evil.
Daoist Chongxu understood his thoughts in an instant, and said, "I advocate the balance of good and evil. But we have to divide heavenly merit and human virtue into two. Heavenly merit cancels out the karma of the heavenly way, and human virtue counteracts the karma of human evil. How about this?"
Another fairy immediately retorted: "Huh! If you can redeem your sins and use your merit to offset your karma, isn't it true that the murderers are the ones who cultivate the most meritorious virtues? I am afraid that even the murderers in the world will seek meritorious deeds." Bar?"
A certain litigator on the side of Longting immediately said: "If a person does good because of doing evil, it will also increase the number of good things in the world. Isn't it the right way to abandon evil and do good?"
"Yellow-mouthed child, don't you hear that 'doing good with your heart is not good?'"
"Is the fairy teacher referring to 'If you do good with your heart, you will not be rewarded even if you are good. If you do evil without intention, you will not be punished even if you are evil'? But in this way, how can it reflect the difference between good and evil?" According to the law, anyone who picks up gold can get [-]% of the reward. Before this law, many people picked up gold and kept it for themselves. But since the promulgation of this law, people often return what they got to the owner. Does the immortal think that this Shouldn't a person who takes the initiative to do good deeds be rewarded?"
Inexplicably, Qinghong thought of the story of "Zigong redeeming people" in his previous life.
There are laws in the state of Lu, and rewards can be obtained for redeeming the people of the country.Zigong was blamed by Confucius for not rewarding people for his redemption.The Master said: "Give and lose! A sage's deeds can change customs and customs, and teaching can be given to the people. It is not just for oneself. Today, the rich are few and the poor are many in the state of Lu. Taking the money will not harm the practice, not If you take the money, you will not be able to redeem people."
"The litigator is referring to enlightenment, right?"
People in the world are often foolish and cannot reach the height of a saint, so naturally they cannot meet the standards of a saint.It needs to be guided step by step.Tell them that doing good deeds and accumulating virtue can eliminate crimes, and perhaps make the atmosphere of the world right.
The Wheel-Running King nodded silently. In the past, the ten great rulers of the underworld established the trial system to guide mortals to do good deeds.
"It is impossible for a mortal to not make mistakes in his life. If they continue to do good deeds because they fear the punishment of the underworld, it will actually be of great help to the enlightenment of the world." Another god was moved.Compared with the dispute between Shendao and Kangdi, if the humane way can be further developed, this is the top priority.For this reason, he is willing to temporarily put aside personal grievances.
"So, your Excellency also tends to offset good and evil?"
"more or less."
The Lord of Five Poisons looked around, and many gods showed similar expressions, so he said, "Speaking of which, I saw an interesting thing before I came to the underworld."
Shenjun cleared his throat: "Before I came, I saw a group of people grabbing a killer and trying to smash him to death. It is said that this person killed a kind man who was kind and generous, so the people who were favored by the good man are ready to avenge their benefactor."
A former Yin king frowned: "It's a good thing to know how to repay your kindness."
Shenjun: "But after careful questioning, I found out that there is a hidden secret in it." At this point, Shenjun made a fool of himself and glanced at the many high-level people present: "Guess, everyone, what is the hidden secret in it?"
Yu Luocha thought about it, and Her Majesty the Queen smiled: "Could it be that people who hold a grudge against a good man can't understand the enemy he has made because of his good deeds?"
"Even if it doesn't hit, it's not far away."
Qinghong's heart moved slightly, and he said with a smile: "Could it be that the good man was a hypocritical good man. He had an enmity with the killer's relatives, robbed his family's property, and killed his family. In the second half of his life, he used the money from the killer's family to do good, so he was killed by the killer." revenge?"
"Fellow Daoist is really smart, that's right. The good man was a thief in the first half of his life, because he killed hundreds of merchants and travelers in the mountains, and took their money to do his best. The killer was the son of one of the merchants. Later The robber felt ashamed, so he took out his money to do good deeds and benefited the people. The people were very grateful to him, and even set up a longevity tablet for him, offering incense day and night. If there is no accident, we will be the same in a hundred years. It is a pity that he was killed by a killer, and his soul went to the underworld. Do you think this killer should be blamed, and how should this so-called robber and good man be dealt with?"
After hearing this, the Goddess of Yinshan quietly asked the Four Faces King.Four Faces Wang Fayan looked towards the gate of hell and nodded silently.Indeed, at the entrance of the gate of hell, there is a "good man" who has encountered such a situation.With a confused look on his face, he was walking towards the ghost capital with a golden light of merit and killing spirit.
The Taiqing Sect Master pondered: "This kind of person... If he uses good and evil to offset, I'm afraid it will be unfair to the killer's family and other innocent people who died in vain. But if he doesn't use good and evil to offset, how can his merit be counted? After all, the merit of the second half of his life True."
When the senior people heard about this case, they felt troubled.
At this moment, Qinghong got up and said to the immortals: "I am shallow in my way, but I can listen to your high opinions. It is nothing more than the difference between heaven and man, the difference between good and evil. If this is the case, why not look at it in a different direction?" He lifted the golden crown on the top , there is a dense air that transforms into Qingyun, holding up 24 orbs, and wisps of black and yellow air shine down.
"Our so-called merits and virtues come from the two realms of heaven and man. The merits and virtues of heaven and earth, more straightforwardly, are the favor of the laws of heaven and earth. As we follow the heavens and the way, we are in harmony with the law of the universe, and thus we can obtain Good luck."
Under the mysterious and yellow aura, a piece of purple-green aura condensed to the Immortal Heavenly Pillar suddenly emerged.Qinghongli has 24 solar terms, which caters to the general trend of the water element in the world, so it enjoys the luck of the heaven and the earth, and the strength of the luck is not weak.
After hearing this, all the immortals around nodded their heads in agreement.
"This kind of luck comes with the sky, but anyone with luck will be killed." Having said that, the immortals silently looked at the leaders of the demonic way.Isn't the reason why these giants of the demon sect can survive is that the heavenly dao has endless luck, making it impossible for the immortal dao to kill them easily?
Back then, when he killed a Toad Palace Earth Immortal, Pavilion Master Fang of Yunxiao Pavilion prepared to spend 3000 years slowly exhausting his luck before finally succeeding.After all, this real land immortal is in harmony with the heaven and the earth, so it is difficult to kill him easily.
The leaders stared back, with a sneer on their faces.
"And the merits of humanity are similar to the power of incense and vows of the gods. If you help someone, you will be thanked for it." Qinghong stretched out his hand and pointed: "Everyone, please look." Following his finger, a thread as thin as a spider's silk The golden light fell into the sea of fire and purgatory, and fell in front of a certain evil spirit.
Seeing the golden thread, the evil spirit immediately reached out and grabbed the spider thread, trying to escape from the flames.But he escaped halfway along the golden thread, and the spider silk golden thread broke immediately, causing him to fall into the flames again.
"Condensing the power of humanism into a rope is certainly a road to liberation, but unfortunately it is not suitable for everyone."
Qinghong's talk made Yinming's gaze flicker, and his heart was vigilant: "This Taoist Qinghong is indeed a talent in the Taoist sect, it seems that if he wants to suppress the trend of Yunxiao Pavilion, he can only start from Ji Feichen. The suzerain immediately thought of "increasing chips" for Ji Feichen.
Why Ji Feichen wants to separate into two bodies, one of the main reasons is that both sides can take all.With the great prosperity of the immortal body, the Demon Sect will actively promote the progress of the demon body in order to contain the immortal body.And the demonic body surpasses the immortal body, and you can use the power of Xuanmen to cultivate the immortal incarnation.The two compete with each other, fight each other left and right, and play with the immortals and demons between applause.
Sect Master Yinming thought to himself: "The 20-year agreement seems to be a good plan for Qinghong. It's best to send him to meet his patriarch while killing robbery!"
At this time, Qinghong returned to his seat again: "A little insight, I hope you can gain something."
After hearing Qinghong's words, several Nether Lords began to discuss with each other.After a while, a boy from Taishang Blissland brought the Taoist decree.The maharajas sat down again after referring to the exchange.
The King of Four Faces took a deep breath, stood up and said solemnly: "The way of the underworld is neither good nor evil. From now on, it all depends on the living beings themselves."
As soon as this remark came out, the heart of heaven shook, and the path of the Netherworld immediately shifted.
The original intention of the establishment of the underworld was to define the way of good and evil, punish evil and promote good.But at this moment, the underworld is more moderate, it has nothing to do with good and evil, and it all depends on the sentient beings themselves.
All the demon masters were delighted accordingly.As long as the underworld no longer judges good and evil, and all beings in the world are not afraid of revenge after death, then the great prosperity of the evil way is just around the corner!
Doing good is not good, and it will not be recorded by the underworld, so who in the world will do it?Doing good and doing evil will be treated the same, so that all living beings in the world will be tempted to degenerate, just flipping hands!
The faces of all the devils were happy, and then the goddess of Yinshan stood up: "The world of mortals is a sea of suffering, and all living beings go to hell. But the souls of mortals who die in the world are thrown into the underworld, and they should go to hell."
Everyone, regardless of good or evil, is going to hell!
After the Yinshan Goddess finished speaking, the Rakshasa King said, "Heaven's heart is the most merciful, and it never stops the way of sentient beings. If you have the fortune of heaven and earth, you can fly away from hell on the rainbow bridge. If you have a chance, you can enter the realm of supreme bliss." .”
Dark Sun Ghost King: "If you are a human being and all people are willing to strengthen your body, you can be a rope to escape from the sea of suffering."
Wheel-running king: "Anyone who leaves the region and has no karma or debts can enter the wheel of reincarnation."
When Qinghong heard what the ghost kings said, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
To put it bluntly, what you ghost kings mean is that everything is done across the board.No matter how much merit and karma you have in the human world, go to hell first.As for how to leave hell, it all depends on the "blessings" accumulated during life.
If you have ever done things in the human world, such as treating wasteland, greening deserts, etc., after entering hell, you will be sent out of hell by your luck in life as a rainbow bridge.And if you have benefited all people and accumulated the power of all people, it will be the golden thread twisting the rope to pull you out of hell.Some people have done evil all their lives, even if they only did one good deed during their lifetime, they can still get a golden thread as thin as a spider's silk as the road to liberation and transcendence.But the premise is that he can leave the sea of evil caused by his karma during his lifetime.
It is self-evident whether one person's gratitude, coupled with the resentment of thousands of people, can escape hell with the help of a life-saving rope as thin as a spider's silk.
"However, there are endless paths for people in the underworld. Even the treacherous and evil people who have committed endless crimes can also obtain the way of detachment and salvation."
Although the new system formulated by the underworld cannot satisfy everyone.But the vast majority of people have been taken care of.
As long as you have accumulated enough merits and karma during your lifetime to make others feel grateful, or let the heavens favor you, you will be able to escape from the evil sea hell after death.
With the five ghost kings jointly revising the underworld system, the purple air outside the hall rushed into the dark cloud sky, and Bi Bixia condensed into sapphire slabs and slowly fell onto the mirror hall.Set down the trial regulations re-enacted by the underworld.
What the five ghost kings said was just the initial basic idea.But there are still hundreds of supplementary rules densely packed, and it is necessary to ensure that there are no loopholes in the new trial system.
The law was established, and endless black water spewed out from the underworld, turning into a sea of evil and covering the world of the underworld.
"Kangdi, you are the king of humanity, the representative of humanity, so please be the first to enjoy this sea of evil!" The dark sun ghost king stretched out his hand and pushed Kangdi into the sea of evil.
A lot of dark red evil spirits rose from the evil sea, turning into 48 wraiths to attack and bite Kangdi in the sea of karma.But at the same time, a golden light of merit rose from his body, turning into a thick golden rope, dragging him slowly away from Nie Hai Hell.
The Wheel-Turning King looked at the gods around him, and kindly reminded him: "Only when the cause and effect are resolved can we ascend to bliss."
The gods suddenly understood, and turned into magic forms one after another, and various demon gods appeared in the sea of evil.These demon gods dragged Kanti down below, preventing him from leaving hell.
The golden rope was wobbly, almost causing Kangdi to fall into the sea of evil again several times.
"The internal time of Nie Hai is different from that of the outside world, and with the inspiration of the gods manifesting, a hundred years can be counted in the blink of an eye. Therefore, Kangdi's punishment has a total of 300 years."
Emperor Kang endured "300 years" in the sea of evil before barely escaping from the sea of evil.
Seeing his pale face and dim aura, Emperor Zhuang sighed, and sent someone to take care of him: This time he was damaged by the gods, so he might not be able to arrange a 33-day formation at all, right?The 33 Earth Immortal candidates of the Ancestral God are still to be discussed.
However, this is still a balance between good and evil, right?The masters of the Demon Sect carefully looked at it, and thought to themselves: From this point of view, if we go to hell after death, we don’t have to worry about anything.After all, we can accumulate some good deeds.
At this time, King Rakshasa pointed to the sapphire stele beside him.Among the hundreds of densely packed articles above, it is impressively written that "heavenly skills can offset human virtues".
There are hundreds of clauses densely packed, almost blocking all possibilities of exploiting loopholes.Moreover, the birth of a brand new Niehai Hell also means that at least one Earth Immortal, or even a strong person at the level of Celestial Immortal will be born from it in the future.This evil sea is the root of the underworld's growth.
It's just that when everyone was distracted by the re-establishment of order in the underworld, Qinghong secretly turned a Yangshen thought to go to the ancient Qi Longting.
"Brother, the hour has come, you should be reincarnated."
Tu Shan turned into a breeze and came, he smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, while the wheel-turning king's attention is not here, my brother will be reincarnated quickly. At that time, we will be able to take over Dahong Jiangshan, and all this will be considered complete."
The two teamed up to help King Yin of the ancient Qi enter reincarnation, and entered the world at the moment of Nie Hai's birth. They happened to avoid other people's perception, and used the strategy of crossing the sea to conceal the plan that Qing Hong and Tu Shan had prepared earlier.

This chapter was a bit difficult to write.In fact, after yesterday's update was uploaded, I regretted it a bit?Why do we have to mention the metaphysical philosophical thought of the concept of good and evil?As a result, I was unable to get off the tiger, and it was really difficult to write this chapter.If your ideas are different from yours, please be tolerant and seek common ground while reserving differences.

Some readers have reported that the results of the previous chapter were directly published, and there was no content to argue about.In fact, I am worried that readers will say that I have too many words, and I will delay the progress of the plot.The intention is to add some content later.At present, this chapter has [-] words. I believe some readers know the allusions of Zigong Redemption better than me, a "half bucket of water".As for some of the controversial views in the article, they are actually the views I collected from other readers and friends after I asked them.Thanks to the readers who helped with this.
