Chapter 249 Backlash
The golden thin line first broke away from his eyebrows, then hung in the air and began to grow a little bit, and finally turned into the shape of a scroll.
With a swipe of the little baby's hand, the scroll unfolded with a "swish".
It was densely covered with curses that looked like ghostly drawings, and I was dazzled just looking at them.
But at the bottom of the scroll, I clearly saw two names.
One is Liu Xianzhou and the other is Yuan Chen.
"When your grandfather signed this contract with me, he set a restriction. If someone wants to break this formation in the future, they will bear all the backlash of the formation. The cause and effect are unified and blamed on one place. That's right.
Say, if you really want me to destroy this contract and this formation, then you must be willing to bear all the backlash and cause and effect."
The little baby... No, he should be called Yuan Chen now.
Yuan Chen said as he waved his hand and pushed the scroll in front of me.
I couldn't understand the contents of this scroll, so naturally I couldn't tell whether it contained the restrictions he mentioned.
"Then... what is the backlash and cause and effect of this formation?"
I didn't dare to agree to anything casually, so I could only keep asking questions, trying to find flaws in Yuan Chen's answers to solve the problem.
At this time, Yuan Chen raised his hand and pointed into the River Styx.
The river surface, which had been lifeless just now, suddenly surged. The dark water seemed to be boiling, and fist-sized bubbles kept popping up.
Immediately afterwards, grimacing faces full of pain and despair appeared under the blisters!
Each of them opened their mouths wide and kept making shrill and pitiful wails.
"Ah!! It's so painful..."
"Help me...save me..."
The whining sound accompanied by the sound of the surging water made my heart feel heavy and hairy. Coupled with the extremely painful faces, I suddenly felt an extreme despair in my heart!
"The dead souls you see in front of you were all sacrificed to the great formation after death. As long as the great formation is there, they will not perish. They can only sink under the River Styx, nourishing the River Styx with their own yin energy every day.
But if the great formation dies, then they will have no meaning of existence."
After explaining this, Yuan Chen paused for a moment, as if he was caught in a certain memory, and his eyes looked at me slightly absentmindedly, but it was only for a moment, and he immediately came back to his senses.
"You should know that there is a book of life and death in the underworld, so the reincarnation of people is determined. However, these living souls have long been excluded from the book of life and death. If they come out of the Styx, they will not be tolerated in the underworld.
Wuming, there is no need to think about reincarnation, so tell me, although breaking the formation can save hundreds of lives in the upper world, where should you let these souls in the underworld go?"
As Yuan Chen spoke, he directly threw the question to me.
I once heard Ling Ling mention a little bit about this issue.
If a person is excluded from the Three Realms, it is equivalent to completely losing the value and meaning of existence. The Three Realms are not tolerated, and the final result can only be eternal death.
If what he said is true, then if I ask Yuan Chen to break the formation now, although the villagers in Yangjian will be rescued, the souls of those who were sacrificed before will face the result that their souls are scattered...
I opened my mouth, but no words came out.
