Chapter 1104: Where Does the Soul Go?
Ye Zan used a small soul-separation technique to let the indigenous heroes of this world know that the spirit and the body can be separated, and there is a 'soul' in the human body. Afterwards, the indigenous heroes who became very interested in this made requests to Ye Zan one after another, and all of them experienced the feeling of their souls coming out of their bodies.
"The existence of this soul has indeed refreshed our cognition, but what does it have to do with the most fundamental question you mentioned?" The indigenous heroes whose curiosity was satisfied after each experienced their souls out of their bodies They turned their attention back to Ye Zan's question about the source of world power.
After all, these indigenous heroes have only just learned of the existence of "souls", let alone targeted research. Therefore, they still can't think of more problems related to this "soul" on the basis of it, so naturally they can't imagine any connection with Ye Zan's problem.
And Ye Zan let the indigenous heroes know the existence of "soul", and didn't expect everyone to understand everything in an instant, just to make a foreshadowing.
Ye Zan went on to popularize some common sense about the soul in the outside world to the indigenous heroes, saying: "In the outside world, after a person dies, the soul will leave the body, or gradually dissipate, or enter a special world. The chance of reincarnation. We call that special world Netherworld, and those who manage the Netherland world are called Hell."
After the collapse of heaven and earth, the underworld has actually been abandoned. Why hasn't the order of yin and yang in each domain completely collapsed? It is because the Underworld is just a "management agency", a means for the Immortal Court to bring the Nether under its jurisdiction, rather than the Underworld opened up the Nether.
Therefore, fundamentally speaking, whether or not there is a underworld will not have much impact on the underworld and the whole world. What is the function of the underworld? Investigate people's good and evil, so as to decide what family you will reincarnate into, whether you will enjoy all the glory and wealth in the next life, or be a cow or a horse for others, or really just be a beast.
In fact, everyone knows a saying that is called "the world is not benevolent, and everything is a humble dog". The Dao of Heaven and Earth, in fact, does not care about good and evil, and will not do anything to punish evil and promote good. So, who cares about people's good and evil? There is such a word "enlightenment", and this word often appears in the mouths of "rulers". To put it bluntly, it means to use rule.
What is goodness? What is evil?
The most basic "goodness" is to abide by the rules and not infringe on the rights and interests of others. Therefore, "good" people are often used to rule and are an important part of maintaining the stability and harmony of a country. On the other hand, "evil" is the opposite. It willfully breaks the rules and infringes on the rights and interests of others, which will have a destructive effect on harmony and stability. Naturally, it is not what the rulers like to see.
Therefore, no matter who is the ruler, as long as he wants to maintain his dominant position, even if he is completely "evil", he still has to follow the principle of "punishing evil and promoting good".
This is the reason why there is a hell in the world of Taoism, and why good and evil are used to determine the reincarnation of people. And without the underworld, there is just no mechanism to determine people's good and evil, but it will not have any impact on this world.
"So, what if there is no ghost?" Sun King asked Ye Zan curiously. In fact, after hearing what Ye Zan said, he already had some guesses. However, guesses are just guesses after all, and you still have to get confirmation from Ye Zan.
"If there is no ghost, the soul will stay in the Yang world, which is the world where we live normally. Most of the souls will completely dissipate in a short period of time, but some of them will become 'ghosts' due to various reasons. Therefore , if there is no place like Netherworld in your world, there should be a lot of ghosts wandering in the world right now. Especially, judging from your performance just now, it seems unlikely that you have experience in dealing with ghosts." Follow the Sun King Ye Zan further talked about the existence of ghosts.
Of course, Ye Zan's statement is not absolute.
Even if there is a ghost, it is not impossible for ghosts to stay in the yang world. In the world of cultivating Taoism, there are many resentful spirits and fierce ghosts in the yang world. Even in the era when there are seductive messengers from the underworld, there are still fish that slip through the net.
But this world seems a bit strange. Leaving aside whether there is a Netherworld, Ye Zan has never seen a single ghost until now. You know, Ye Zan's "seeing" does not simply refer to seeing with his own eyes, but includes the scanning and inspection of the world by the detection equipment.
Therefore, Ye Zan can almost say with certainty that there is really no ghost in the "Yangjian" of this world.
Originally, Ye Zan thought that this world is different from the outside after all, maybe there is some mechanism in the laws of heaven and earth, so that the souls of people in this world can dissipate instantly after death. However, he has also seen dead people in this world before, clearly seeing people die in front of his eyes, but he still can't find a trace of ghosts.
Until now, Ye Zan found the record about the nightmare incident from the Supreme Council's documents. In fact, in the record of this event, what really matters is not how many people died in the dream, but the dream that those people had. What matters is not that everyone has the same dream, but what that dream reveals.
"You mean, ghosts have never appeared in our world, so there should be a space similar to the netherworld, which accommodates or processes the souls of people after death?" The pinnacle of the world, even though it was the first time he heard about souls and ghosts, he still easily understood what Ye Zan meant.
Ye Zan nodded, projected an image in mid-air, and said to everyone: "I drew this image based on the survivors' descriptions of their dreams in the data. Combined with the information I mentioned before, I I have a relatively bold guess about this, maybe this is the ghost of your world, and it is also what I am looking for, the source of the world's power."
"You mean, the ghosts of our world exist in everyone's dreams?" Lagris asked a little puzzled.
"No, according to my guess, the dream should only be a passage to the nether world. And the soul of a person enters the netherworld through this passage after death. This also explains why in your yang world, there are always No ghosts have appeared." Ye Zan was concluding, expressing some of his conjectures.
In Ye Zan's conjecture, those people in the nightmare event actually went to the netherworld through the dream, just like all other people who died in this world. It's just that some accidents may have occurred, causing some of them to "return to the sun" unexpectedly, and their souls returned to their physical bodies from the nether world. As a result, these people came back to life and became "survivors", and after telling what they saw in their dreams, they created the illusion that many people had the same dream.
Of course, these are only Ye Zan's conjectures, and there is no real and strong evidence yet. However, apart from this matter, Ye Zan could not find any more reliable information than this from the information of the Supreme Council. This is like solving a problem with the method of elimination. I don't know if this answer is right, but I know that other answers are wrong, so this answer can only be right.
"Through a dream and enter the netherworld, this sounds...it's a bit...unacceptable!" After all, those indigenous heroes heard about these things for the first time, and they didn't see Ye Zan show any real evidence , it is natural to have some doubts about this.
"Also, even if everything is as you said, are we going to... commit suicide, and then follow you to that ghostly place? This is too...absurd." Some indigenous heroes also thought of the content of cooperation with Ye Zan, so There is no way to accept these things.
It's really ridiculous. If the information is 100% certain, then "suicide" is not unacceptable, of course, the premise is that you can still survive. But the problem now is that there is no way to prove the authenticity of the information, and it is not certain whether he can survive after committing suicide. Who would be willing to take this risk? Some people may even wonder if Ye Zan and the others are playing tricks just to trick them, the natives, into dying.
Hearing the doubts from the native heroes, Ye Zan couldn't help laughing. He shook his head and said, "Everyone is thinking too much. Whoever said that going to the Netherworld must commit suicide?"
"Ah, isn't it? Didn't you say that the Netherland is the place where people's souls go after death!" Someone immediately asked back with a puzzled face.
"Have you forgotten, as I said just now, that dreams are the passage to enter the nether world?" Then, Ye Zan pointed at the forest next to him, looked at the two people who had experienced the power of dreams before, and said, "And I This companion of mine happens to be able to control the power of dreams."
"You mean, he can open the passage to the netherworld, and we don't need to commit suicide, we can go to the nether world through that passage!" Those indigenous heroes also understood what Ye Zan meant at this time, except for the sudden realization After that, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Yes, that's what I mean, and it doesn't necessarily mean that all of us have to go there. We still need to investigate the situation first to see how much power is needed to cooperate with me to grasp the source of the world's power. In addition, it is not quite right to say something It's nice to hear, all of this is speculation after all, and there may not really be a source of world power in the nether world." Ye Zan said frankly, and didn't make any promises regardless of the facts in order to convince everyone.
And Ye Zan's attitude of telling the truth, in the eyes of these indigenous heroes, is undoubtedly a plus. These people are natives, but they are not fools, and they are all old monsters who have lived for tens of thousands of years. Who knows, the more certain they are, the more suspicious they are. When a person promises you something swearingly, he is often untrustworthy. I just hugged, touched, and rubbed outside, how many of them did what they said?
"Well, since this is the case, and there are no other clues, why don't you just tell me what you plan to do next." The Sun King asked Ye Zan about the specific plan on behalf of the indigenous heroes.
"My plan is this. First of all, I need to confirm some previous guesses, such as whether the dream is a passage or whether it leads to the netherworld. Of course, only people on my side can do this. After confirming some things, We still need to investigate first and estimate the risks so that we can make corresponding preparations. At this step, everyone who is interested can participate in the action, and you can feel more at ease." Ye Zan briefly stated his plan .
To put it bluntly, this is a total of three steps, the first step is to open the Netherworld, the second step is to detect the Netherworld, and the third step is to officially start operations. Although the plan is simple, as far as the current situation is concerned, it can only be achieved to this extent. To talk about a more careful plan, in fact, it is still necessary to go to the second step, after the real scouting of the Netherworld, can a further plan be formulated.
The Sun King thought for a while, but didn't think there was any trap inside, so he nodded and said, "Well, that's it. According to what you said, I have no objection."
The Sun King had no objections, and neither did the other indigenous heroes, and Ye Zan's plan was quickly approved unanimously. Anyway, the first two steps were almost all done by Ye Zan, and they only chose whether to participate in the second step. If the first step went smoothly, it would actually prove Ye Zan's conjecture to a certain extent, and the native heroes would not have any worries.
Ye Zan also didn't want to waste any more time. After negotiating everything with the native heroes, he immediately started the first step of the plan. Of course, at this time, there is no need for everyone to gather together like this. So Ye Zan and Lin Mumu came to a room arranged by the Queen of the Night.
"Brother Ye, is it really possible to enter the nether world from the dream?" Lin Mumu asked Ye Zan worriedly when he started casting the spell.
"Now there is only this clue, try it and you will know." Ye Zan was quite confident, and told Lin Mumu another guess of his own, saying: "Besides, I think that the dark place is probably the It has something to do with the head of the evil spirit outside the sky, after all, it is something related to the spiritual level."
"So, it's really possible." Lin Mumu nodded in agreement.
Although, in terms of the external situation, the head and body of the extraterrestrial demons are separated, but that is only a separation on the material level, or in other words, a separation on the surface. From the perspective of power, the part of the power left by the evil spirits outside the sky cannot be divided so simply like the body, and they must be involved with each other.
The head of the evil spirit outside the sky is where the brain is located from a scientific point of view, and it is the place where the soul is born and lodged from a metaphysical point of view. Although, the remnant soul of the evil spirit outside the sky was attached to the core, and was taken away by the ancestor of the earth immortal. But just like monks have Yuanying and Yuanshen, the brain still has the function and meaning of existence of the brain, and it is not simply replaced.
