Chapter 5549 Lonely souls and fierce ghosts also cause trouble
The black robe said in a deep voice: "I think the Zhou tribe has seen this situation too much. Later, the Duke of Zhou performed the Zhou ritual and embarked on the path of benevolence and righteousness. In other words, their patron saints have always been those righteous Taoist immortals.
, so I don’t believe in the blessings of evil gods, but
To rule the entire human world with the power of gods. The Shang Dynasty of the Zhou Dynasty was actually what the people wanted. It was the united resistance of all the tribes in the world who could not bear the cruel sacrifices and magic power of the Shang Dynasty. After all, no one wanted to make themselves like cattle.
Just like sheep and animals, they are allowed to be slaughtered by others.”
The ancestor said calmly: "What the black-robed Venerable said makes sense. Human beings are the spirits of all things and have their own consciousness. Not only humans, but also cattle, sheep, chickens and dogs, do you want to be slaughtered by others? We are here.
After many analyses, gods need to enjoy the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in order to survive and not disappear. To replenish this spiritual energy, the righteous Taoist immortals need incense and sacrifices from the human world, while the evil gods enjoy it directly.
human soul,
In fact, the immortals and gods in the sky, like human beings, also undergo birth, old age, illness and death. On the one hand, since there are more and more humans in the world and the essence and spiritual power are getting less and less, it has become difficult to become a god. On the other hand, it has become difficult to become a god.
On the other hand, as time goes by, fewer and fewer ancestors are worshiped, because the ancestors remembered by future generations will become blurred as time goes by. The so-called Seven Temples of the Son of Heaven, or the Five Services
Three generations, that’s it.”
Doupeng frowned and said: "Yes, even the emperor of the dynasty can only sacrifice seven generations of ancestors, the three generations above him and the four generations of ancestors from the founding of the country, especially the founder of the country. This is
Those who have to be sacrificed all the time, others have been born for three generations and five
After serving, they will be removed. There is also a saying that after a hundred years, it will be over and there will be no more sacrifices. These ancestors who have no sacrifices will become lonely ghosts, wandering between heaven and earth. In the end, there will be no incense and no sacrifices.
It slowly dissipated."
"Only those ancestors who founded the country and received their surnames will be sacrificed to their descendants forever, and can they exist between heaven and earth forever. From this point of view, the large-scale sacrifices of the Shang Dynasty actually destroyed many things that should have been done very quickly.
The ghosts, gods and ancestors who disappeared between heaven and earth have been preserved by force."
The ancestor nodded: "Yes, the sacrifices of the Shang Dynasty, in addition to the public sacrifices of the country and dynasty, there are also many family sacrifices based on the family unit, even when moving, and used as a town house.
, there will also be sacrifices. For the Shang Dynasty, there was a reason for frequent capital moves."
The black robe suddenly became interested: "Could it be that those sacrifices that were killed, human beings and animals also had grievances, and were also haunted by ghosts?"
The ancestor smiled slightly and said: "Yes, the black-robed venerable is right. Although human sacrifice requires various rituals, spells and incantations to guide the souls of these killed people as much as possible.
Successfully ascended to the nine heavens and was enjoyed by the ancestors and gods, but it was always sparse and sparse.
, some souls cannot ascend to heaven, but wander between heaven and earth, becoming lonely ghosts. These lonely souls will not completely remember how they died, but because they were killed and often very painful before death, they will
With a lot of resentment and obsession, he became a ghost and wandered around the place where he was killed."
"These lonely ghosts will attack living people indiscriminately. Strong ghosts with strong resentment will directly kill people, while weaker ones will also make people sick and suffer. The so-called troubles.
That's how it came about. Therefore, the Shang Dynasty generation was actually counterattacked by human sacrifice. While sacrificing humans and animals, receiving blessings from ancestors and receiving strong support, they also faced the accumulation of such lonely souls and ghosts, and finally formed
The scale is the result of backlash against people."
The black-robed man frowned: "I have read some magic books of the Divine Alliance. It is said that after large-scale sacrifices, there will be many lonely souls and ghosts you mentioned that cannot be dissipated. If you want to continue in this place of sacrifice,
Life is about making new spells
, such as using the method of attracting thunder to kill these evil ghosts and preventing them from harming people again. Or, using methods to attract ancestors and gods, they can enter the human world briefly and devour these souls, but time cannot
Too long."
The ancestor nodded: "Yes, these are soul-suppressing techniques, but they require very powerful magic. After the God-Conferring Agreement, it will be difficult to continue the practice of attracting ancestors to come to the world to devour souls.
, However, foreign monks like to chant sutras. Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, Buddhism introduced from Tianzhu can take advantage of this loophole and use the power of the King of Hell to seduce the souls."
Doupeng frowned: "So, is the Buddhist theory of reincarnation true? Can they really transcend the souls of the dead and eliminate the resentment of the ghosts and ghosts?"
The ancestor sighed: "Yes, so Buddhism is actually a future threat to our Central Plains Taoists. However, they are not popular now, and they have not been jointly dealt with by the gods and ancestors of good and evil. Even the Central Plains
gods,
It is also believed that Buddhism has the function of clearing away lonely souls and wild ghosts in the world that are difficult to eliminate. It can persuade people to do good and reduce disputes, which is conducive to the governance of the righteous immortals. As for the suppression of Buddhism, it is left to the evil ways in troubled times.
The gods will deal with it."
"It's just that today's Buddhism, except for Fotucheng who showed some ability to predict the future during the Five Husties, has not competed with the kings of the Central Plains or the Taoist monks for manpower and resources on a large scale, and has not yet competed with the Central Plains.
The world of earth has a great influence. The theory of reincarnation is only limited to the lonely ghosts who cannot normally extinguish their spirits.
It does not involve the vast majority of ordinary people. The number of human sacrifices has become less and less since the Shang Dynasty. Most of the dead souls of the human body disappear and return to the world to become the source of spiritual power and essence.
The body of a newborn baby is reshaped into its soul. It is not like what the Buddhists say, the reincarnation after drinking Meng Po soup and crossing the Naihe Bridge."
The black robe frowned: "This means that the theories of Buddhism are lies. There is no reincarnation. After death, the soul disappears and becomes the source of spiritual power again. Is this the normal ending? Then this
Are the theories of hell and heaven and the Buddhist theories that Kumarajiva believes in all lies?"
The ancestor curled up his lips: "It's not entirely a lie. Their system may be popular in the country of Tianzhu, but it is not so easy to use in China. It can only be said that those resentments are deep and cannot be dissipated.
, the soul that became a lonely ghost, Buddha
The family can send them to hell for reincarnation, or they can be said to be sages and virtuous people who can become Buddhas in the West without transmuting the relics, but for ordinary mortals, they cannot transmigrate, so we can only emphasize the word fate." (
