Villager of Destiny

If you can't do good deeds and accumulate virtue, you can only enter the underworld?
After hearing this, I couldn't help but frown. At the same time, I looked at the souls in front of me again. Among those souls, only a few were as vicious as before and occupied the ferry boat. Most of them were at a loss. It was obvious that even if they were They were just ordinary people when they were alive.

Such souls, just because they came here, does it mean that they are evil?
Of course not!

I shook my head and said, "I don't think so."

Seeing what I said, the old lunatic laughed loudly and said, "But there are only two destinations in this world, one is the road to immortality, and the other is this underworld."

"You can't enter the road to immortality, even if you are just an ordinary mortal, you can only enter this underworld after death."

"So even if they are not evil, so what?"

I thought for a while and said, "That means that this reincarnation itself is not complete."

"Whether it's the road to immortality or the underworld."

"If only good and evil can be distinguished, what is good and what is evil?"

"Then what do you think, if it were you, what would you do?" The old lunatic stared at me suddenly.

Feeling his gaze, I just felt a little hairy, but I don't know why, but I wanted to answer this question, as if this question itself was also an extremely important thing to me.

So although I don't understand why the old lunatic let me see this and said such things to me, at this moment I didn't think much about it, but replied after a while of silence: "In my eyes, you can't just divide the good and the bad. evil."

"If good and evil are used as a distinction, then no one can be completely sure what is good and what is evil?"

The old lunatic chuckled: "How do you say?"

I thought for a moment and said, "If a person kills many people, do you think he is evil?"

"Naturally!" The old lunatic nodded without hesitation.

"Then if the people he killed were all deserving of death and not for himself, then is he evil?"

The old madman fell silent.

I continued to ask: "A person who has done many good deeds, do you think he is good?"

This time the old madman didn't answer me directly, but looked at me.

I continued: "Then he also killed many people before doing good deeds. Doing good deeds just makes his conscience feel better. Is he still good?"

The old lunatic remained silent.

I thought for a while and continued: "As far as I can remember, you have brought me up. After you left, I lived alone in Niang'er Village until the old smoker appeared."

"I don't know what your relationship is."

"But now I don't want to know, because I don't care about your relationship anymore. No matter who you are, in my eyes, you are all my close relatives."

"Even if you let me into the game and made me come to this point, everything about me seems to be used by you, and I don't blame you. Although at first I thought that you are not a good person, but then I understood. "

"For the sake of all beings, even if you use me as a pawn, so what?"

"And even if many, many people died in this round, can you be said to be evil?"

"I can't do it myself!"

"Good and evil, if they represent the road to immortality and the land of the underworld, then this in itself is unfair!"

"Then tell me, what to do!" Hearing what I said, the old lunatic's face became a little more complicated, but he quickly became indifferent again.

"If there must be reincarnation, then reincarnation cannot be limited to good and evil."

"Even if we can only distinguish between good and evil, we still have to discover the essence behind it."

"And, why, only human beings can enter reincarnation?"

I don't know why I said this last sentence. After I said it, I only felt that my surroundings seemed to be shaking. Something seemed to be unraveling in my mind, but the force seemed not enough.I didn't think too much, and continued: "If it were me, then whether it's immortals, souls, or people, reincarnation shouldn't only have these three types."

"The vegetation and creatures in the world all have life, and their existence means the meaning of their existence."

"If a person can only ascend to immortality after death, or enter the underworld to regain the chance to be reincarnated as a human, then what's the point?"

"People can be reincarnated into other living beings, and other living beings can be reincarnated into adults. This is the meaning of reincarnation."

"Besides, whether it's good or evil, if these are the only two choices, what's the point?"

"A person who is evil will be evil all his life, and if he is reincarnated as a human again, he will still be evil?"

The more I talked, the more I couldn't stop, as if these words had been in my mind for a long time, and at this moment, I couldn't spit them out.

The old lunatic didn't stop me either. He nodded and said, "You're right!"

"But, what should I do?"

"Emperor and Taishan Fujun, they are the masters of the underworld, they actually understand these things, but they can't make too many changes, because they themselves belong to the underworld, even if they can control the underworld, if they want to interfere Can't do it."

"For this reason, the emperor is willing to re-enter the samsara with himself, but no one can be sure whether he can return after re-entering the samsara, and even if he can return, it is difficult to change."

"As for the Lord of Taishan Palace, he is different from the Emperor."

"The Emperor is not the Yin God of the Underworld. There are many reasons why he became the Emperor of the Underworld. And Lord Taishan himself was the first god at the birth of the Underworld. He has the power to control the Underworld in the true sense, but because of this , he also cannot change the reincarnation and cause and effect of the underworld, what he can do is to create a new underworld, even if it is wrong!"

Hearing this, I froze for a moment, and subconsciously frowned.

But before I could speak, the old lunatic said again: "Fortunately, there is one person."

"He is not the god of the underworld, he comes from the path to immortality."

"He's willing to go that far."

"then……"

"That's all there is now."

"It's just that even now, he can't be completely sure whether his decision is correct."

"So, Xuantian, are you sure?"

The old madman looked at me again.

His eyes were inexplicable, and seemed to contain some kind of emotion.

I don't quite understand, but I can feel his seriousness.

I thought for a moment and said, "I'm actually not sure."

"But I think, if there is any hope of reincarnation, then all sentient beings should be given an equal opportunity."

"All beings are suffering."

"All living beings should be equal."

"And these living beings should not just be human beings."

The old madman laughed.

"It seems that you have figured it out!"

Saying that, the old lunatic put his hand on my shoulder.

"So, now do you know what is the way of heaven and what is the way of man?" (End of this chapter)
