As Mr. Chen said this, he turned around and took his tobacco bag over. Everyone was shocked when they heard this. After looking at each other, I asked him carefully: "Is it possible that there is really something in this world that can make people immortal?
"
"Who knows." Mr. Chen said, snorted coldly, smoked leisurely for a while, and then slowly said to us:
"Originally, this incident was almost forgotten by people, but I didn't expect you to reveal it again today. According to Junior Brother Daoqing's description, I suspect that those people have some connection with our Taoist sects, otherwise, they wouldn't be like many
Just like a Taoist priest, he refines elixirs and practices Taoism."
"Besides, making fuss about corpses has always been what Maoshan disciples love to do." I said, sticking out my tongue.
"You can't say that. Many wizards are like this." After coughing twice, Mr. Chen quickly corrected him.
"But, I still don't understand what they are doing with those zombies? You have already said that zombies cannot be used to make elixirs, but you just said that those people are using zombies to make elixirs that make people immortal. This is not self-defeating.
Is it a contradictory statement..." After saying this, I looked at Ding Ling. Hearing this, Ding Ling nodded in agreement. At this time, Mr. Chen stretched out his hand and slapped me hard on the head.
Knocked on the ground.
"What, you want to rebel? We have been together for so long, how could I ever lie to you?" Mr. Chen said, holding his pipe and thinking for a while, and then said to me with a bit of the arrogance of a big scholar bullying a primary school student: "Zombies, they are
There is no problem in saying that it cannot be used to make elixirs, and there is no problem in saying that zombies can be used to make elixirs. The problem is that you have misunderstood me. Let me ask you, do you know what is needed to make elixirs?"
"Alchemy furnace, raw materials." I said without thinking.
"What else?" Mr. Chen nodded and asked again.
"And... and... and... you mean... the fire?" When I said this, I seemed to understand what Mr. Chen meant.
Meaning, after a moment of surprise, I covered my mouth and said to him: "Holy crap, those zombies are for burning?!"
"Go aside!" After hearing this, Mr. Chen, who was originally smiling, suddenly changed his expression. His attitude made everyone laugh. I scratched my head a little confused, not knowing what he meant.
"What my father means is that those tribesmen may use the souls in the zombies to refine elixirs. To a certain extent, the zombies' souls can exist as a furnace for refining elixirs, right, dad."
The man who was immersed in eating said that and glanced at Mr. Chen. Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen nodded with satisfaction and then snorted coldly at me.
I knew that this old man wanted to question my talent again, so I lowered my head to eat and remained silent.
Regarding the matter of three souls and seven souls, I specifically asked many seniors for confirmation. There is such a record in the Daojia classic "Yunji Qizhuan", which says: "The lady has three souls, one is fetal light, the other is Shuangling.
"A ghost spirit." These three things are relatively clean, and the corresponding seven souls are: "corpse dog, lying arrow, sparrow yin, swallowing thieves, non-poison, removing filth, and smelly lungs". These seven souls
Unlike the three souls, they are all "turbid ghosts in the body".
In other words, from the perspective of Taoist theory, the soul and the soul are two different things. The soul dominates human consciousness, thinking, logic, morality, will quality and many other aspects. It belongs to "Yang" and was originally the
A kind and positive thing. It is precisely because of the existence of three souls that people can restrain themselves.
In comparison, this soul is not so noble. It is said that the soul in the soul is in charge of the physiological needs represented by human's "seven emotions and six desires". It belongs to "yin" and is turbid air. In other words,
This is the most primitive and sinful aspect of the human body. Eating, sleeping, sleeping, and all physiological needs are controlled by this thing.
Based on the different attributes of the two, Taoists believe that after death, the soul ascends to heaven and the soul descends to the earth. Therefore, the Central Plains region has always retained the traditional custom of resting in the grave.
However, there are exceptions to everything. Some people who died unexpectedly did not reach the underworld before their life span was over, so the three souls in their bodies floated in the world and became ghosts. For other people, their three souls were taken away, but the seven souls in their bodies did not sink.
When it goes underground, if it is provoked by a move, it will revive with the help of its body, thus creating an illusion of immortality. This thing is what we often call a zombie.
After knowing this, it is not that difficult to understand what Mr. Chen said. If what he said is true, then the mysterious race deep in the mountains probably possesses a method to extract the "soul" from the zombie body.
A special method, and using it as a raw material to turn it into a raging elixir fire for refining elixirs.
You must know that human souls appear in a form that is very close to the "plasma state". From the naked eye, they are closer to things like light and flame. Therefore, compared with using zombie corpses to make elixirs,
Mr. Chen’s statement about the “human flesh elixir” of medicine is easier to accept.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment. Regardless of whether it was true or not, I finally had some reasonable speculations about the motives of those people. I thought about it and asked Mr. Chen: "Old man, you said that there is something inside every corpse."
Is there such a thing as 'po'?"
"Of course not. Otherwise, are you dissatisfied that the world is full of zombies? Generally speaking, after most people die, their souls will soon separate from the outside. The soul is hooked by ghosts, and it will definitely not be retained. And
The soul sinks more slowly. As long as you act fast enough, you will succeed.
The rate is still very high. However, that is a method of artificial zombies, which is too unethical. For the Maoshan people, it is also a taboo. Not many people are willing to use it unless it is absolutely necessary. Moreover, artificial zombies, inside the body
The soul is relatively weak, so zombies are
The older it gets, the more powerful it becomes. The strength of a zombie that has been accumulated for a hundred years is probably incomparable to thousands of artificial zombies. Otherwise, those people would not spend such a large amount of money to buy ancient corpses everywhere.
.However, this matter is actually quite strange.
Over the years, I haven't met many people who use this method to make elixirs. There are very few people who know about those things. They put so much effort into doing this. Could it be that those tribesmen came out of the mountains? No.
.....Probably not..."
Mr. Chen said, thoughtfully.
"It's not necessarily true. It may be that Mr. Mao has great hands and eyes and has already figured out the mystery inside. It may also be that Jin Jiuye was forced to tell the truth to them. Alas, this is a common occurrence when people are under low eaves.
It's something." I said, looking a little melancholy.
