My understanding is against the sky, I create a family of villains and longevity

Chapter 239 Death means changing from a person to a small mound, right? (Illusion of Life and Death Part [-])

"The illusion of life and death is so easy to see through."

Tian Ganzi looked at Chen Zhixing who had fallen into eternal sleep through the coffin lid and murmured to himself.

next moment.

He stretched out his finger and gently touched the coffin lid.

A trace of spiritual thoughts suddenly poured into the coffin lid, and then entered Chen Zhixing's sea of ​​consciousness.

at the same time.

Chen Zhixing entered an extremely strange state.

His vision just went dark, but when he opened his eyes again, it was a different picture.

It was a house that looked a bit old and shabby. A gentle-looking woman was sitting on the bed, grabbing the edge of the bed with both hands, biting a wet handkerchief, and rows of cold sweat pouring out of her forehead.

A midwife was constantly cheering the gentle woman on, asking her to keep working hard.

"here is?"

Chen Zhixing was slightly startled, and he wanted to ask where this was.

However, no matter how he asked, the other people in the picture seemed to not be able to see him and just passed through his body indifferently.

".Illusion? And here I am, just a consciousness floating outside this world?"

A thoughtful look flashed in Chen Zhixing's eyes.

Come to think of it, this is the illusion of life and death mentioned by Tian Qianzi, right?
And he needs to understand the path of life and death here.

“This is the way to experience the Avenue”

"Interesting. Come then."

Chen Zhixing looked silently.

next moment.

At the same time, a voiceover from Tian Ganzi sounded in his ears.

[With a cry of "Wow", you were born. 】

[Your name is Chen Xiaoxing, and you were born in Lijia Village, Huangqiao Town, Jiangzhou, Dongxuan Territory. 】

[Your group is not the local villagers of Lijia Village. Your grandfather was hit by a locust plague and fled all the way to Lijia Village. He was helped by the kind villagers and took root in Lijia Village ever since. 】

[Your great-grandfather had no talent and only had a handful of strength. At that time, an old man died in the village and there was a shortage of coffin bearers, so he asked your great-grandfather to fill the gap. 】

[From then on, your grandfather became a coffin bearer in Lijia Village. 】

[And this also marks the beginning of the continuity of your Chen family. 】

[After your grandfather died, your grandfather took over your grandfather's position and continued to be a coffin bearer. 】

[At this point, after you were born, your ancestors for three generations have already been engaged in the funeral industry. 】

The picture gradually advanced in front of Chen Zhixing's eyes.

"Hmm? Pallbearer?"

Chen Zhixing watched all this silently, with a look of interest on his face.

He was a little curious as to whether these scenes were caused by the elixir of the Dead Soul Pill or Tiangianzi's method.

To be able to directly construct a world and use it as a way of understanding?

"Tian Ganzi told me before that he wanted me to remember who I am, and that it was a light that would illuminate my return. I guess he meant that he was afraid that I would get lost in this illusionary world, right?"

Chen Zhixing muttered to himself.

next moment.

He shook his head, gathered his thoughts, and looked at the picture of this fantasy world with concentration.

"Coffin bearer is the profession that brings the most exposure to death in the mortal world, right?"

"Using this as an access point to understand the avenue of life and death is indeed a bit new."

The scene continued to advance, and Tian Ganzi's voiceover continued to sound.

Spring goes and autumn comes, and in this picture, year after year continues to pass.

But Chen Zhixing, who was still awake at first, began to gradually blur his self-awareness, as if he had completely transformed into Chen Xiaoxing of this world, gradually forgetting everything.

[In this world, there are clear divisions between the three religions and the nine streams, and the hierarchy is strict. However, your Chen family has been a coffin bearer for generations. This is the lowest of the nine professions, only better than the prostitutes of the ninth class. 】

[However, in Lijia Village, you will be troubled by the death of any family, so you, the Chen family, have not suffered any discrimination. On the contrary, almost every household in the village is quite polite to you, the Chen family. . 】

[After all, death is something that no one can escape. Everyone is destined to die. If I offend you too much, there is no guarantee that you will do something bad when your ancestors are buried. 】

[No one wants to have peace after death. 】

[Furthermore, your father still has some sense. After he became a coffin bearer, he also took over the work of a papermaker, a coffin shop, a drummer, etc., and together they opened a charity shop. It can be regarded as a complete funeral process. 】

[Not only did he monopolize the entire business in Lijia Village, he even extended his business to Huangqiao Town. 】

[Whether it’s in the town or in every country, whenever someone dies, they will come to find you, the Chen family. 】

[Therefore, after you were born, your life was quite comfortable. 】【Your mother passed away early. She died of illness not long after you were born, so your memories of your mother come more from your father's mouth. 】

[According to outsiders, it means that everyone in your profession is unlucky and is contaminated with bad luck. Either you will kill yourself or the people around you. 】

[But when you told this to your father, your father didn’t take it seriously. 】

[Your father said: 'Others don't understand our line of work, but in fact what we do is to accumulate virtue for our descendants. Carrying it is not a coffin, but it is a blessing.A few years ago, the eight people carrying the coffin were not called coffin bearers. When the county magistrate saw it, he would call him the Eight Immortals, or the Eight Great Vajras! '】

[Because your mother passed away early, although you are not short of food and clothing when you are young, you have few people to take care of you. 】

[In this forced and helpless situation, you have traveled with your father since you were a child. Every household in this country has died. Your father went to make paper people, paper horses, carry coffins and repair graves, and you just stayed quietly. Stay aside. 】

[Therefore, you have been in contact with dead people since you were very young. 】

[Death is not unfamiliar to you. 】

[However, at that time, although you were no stranger to death, your concept of death was very vague and you didn’t know what death actually meant. 】

[When you get older and start to gain strength, your father wants to take you out of the coffin to familiarize yourself with the industry in advance so that you can take over his business in the future. 】

【But you have resisted like never before. 】

[Because you don’t want to be a coffin bearer and deal with the dead anymore. 】

[That day, you and him had an unprecedented fierce quarrel! 】

[You, young and arrogant, shouted loudly at him; 'I won't do these things in the future!Dad, do you know what the classmates in the school say about me?They all said that I was a child who grew up eating the food of dead people! '】

[Your father, whose real name was Chen Jisheng, was sitting on a bamboo stool with a paper figurine. Hearing this, he put down the paper figurine and sneered: "Yes, you grew up eating the food of the dead!"They were right!Xingyazi, let me tell you, not only you grew up eating dead food, including me, but also your grandfather, all grew up eating dead food!And we are all good at this business, but you can’t do it? '】

[You said with a face full of dissatisfaction: "People also said that our business is the lowest among the lowest, just a little better than the kilns in the town, despicable!" '】

[After you finished speaking, you added another sentence: 'I'm going to take the exam to gain fame!I want to be a scholar, a Jinshi, and a high official in the future!That's so majestic!They say that as long as there is ambition, even a poor family can produce a noble son! ']

【Snapped! 】

[Your father slapped you hard on the face. 】

[That was the first time your father hit you. 】

[You are confused because you have never seen such an angry look on your father's face. 】

[He was so angry that his whole hand was shaking, and he said angrily: 'You mean it's mean?No matter how lowly you are, I will still support you!Little bastard, who taught you to pick up the bowl to eat and scold your mother when you put the bowl down? '】

[At this point, your father changed the topic, and then he laughed angrily: 'You are a noble son from a poor family?Little bastard, just look at how much of a coward you are, how can you read and write a book?Also, a poor family, a poor family, do you know what a poor family is?A poor family is a wealthy family!Does our family deserve to be called a poor family? ']

[Father’s words left you speechless. 】

[Of course, the more important thing is that you were stunned by your father's slap, and you still haven't come back to your senses. 】

[Finally, while you were still confused, your father grabbed your ears and locked you in the house. You were not allowed to come out until you had tied ten paper figures. 】

[Well, you are honest. 】

[Time passed slowly, and under the pressure of your father, you began to help the family with things. 】

[The first thing you do is carry the coffin. 】

[According to your father, our old Chen family relies on coffin-carrying, so naturally we need to practice coffin-carrying first. 】

[Carrying the coffin sounds simple, but in reality it is not easy. 】

[Not only must the lifting be stable, so that the dead in the coffin cannot suffer bumps on the road, but also must not turn back and stop on the way, let alone allow the coffin to fall to the ground. 】

【You practiced for more than half a year, and followed your father to carry the coffin several times. Finally, a year later, you had the opportunity to carry the coffin alone for the first time. 】

[That day, the sky was terrifyingly gloomy, and the dense sky seemed to be falling. It was so oppressive that people could not breathe. 】

[Heavy rain poured down, making the mountain road slippery and muddy. It was already difficult to walk steadily by yourself, let alone having to carry a coffin to keep it stable. 】

[Fortunately, the other seven people who carried the coffin were experienced masters who had been carrying coffins for decades, and nothing happened along the way. 】

[When you carry the coffin up the mountain, put it in the tomb, open it for the last time, and let the family members pay homage to the remains, and the family members cry heartbrokenly by the side, your mood becomes a little low for the first time. 】

【Looking at the dead person lying quietly in the coffin, motionless, with a pale face, and looking at the relatives and friends around you crying to death, you can't help but start to think, what is death? 】

[You can’t find the answer to this question. 】

[In the end, the torrential rain hit your face, and then under the condolences of the relatives of the deceased, as well as the cries and shouts, you chanted the mantra and sealed the coffin completely with dragon nails. 】

[Then, one handful after another of loess covered the coffin, and finally the coffin was completely submerged and buried under the loess. 】

[A living person has just turned into a small mound. 】

[From now on, life and death are separated by one width and two widths. 】

[For the first time, you have an understanding of death. 】

[Perhaps death means changing from a person to a small mound, right? 】

　It’s the last day of the month and there are only two hours left!

　　Ask for a monthly pass!Ask for a monthly pass!Ask for a monthly pass! !

　　It will be wasted if you don’t invest~~~!

　　Then, there should be about three chapters in this fantasy. I think the watery ones can be skipped as they won’t affect the reading very much.
