the last priest

There are still remains of bones on this tree, and Cha Wenbin has never had a good impression of such evil things. ┠ ⊿ &┨ In his view, primitive sacrificial activities are based on all kinds of blood and killing, and there is no shortage of such living sacrifices.The objects of the sacrifices are often slaves or prisoners of war, who are persecuted by the high-ranking theocracy with various reasons. What's more, like the previous person, they use the legendary ghost weapon like the soul-destroying nail to beat people to death. Never to be reincarnated, he felt very disgusted.

But sympathy belongs to sympathy, but this is history after all. The Chinese civilization has claimed for 5000 years since ancient times. In fact, how much has been handed down by the world, and how much has been buried in the dust of the years, as he saw It was just a kind of sacrificial method that was very popular at that time.For history, people only have respect and awe, because you cannot change or reshape.

People like Cha Wenbin already understood that the way of gods and ghosts is just a thought.If it is used well, it can save the world and save people, but if it is not used well, it can kill people invisible.After all, apart from fortune telling, too many accidents really happen to people, especially like him, who has never stopped exploring destiny since he lost his daughter.

For us ordinary people, reincarnation, life and death are just arrangements that go with the flow, but for him, the way of heaven is the ultimate goal to pursue.Because a Taoist priest may tell countless people's fortunes and divinations in this life, and give advice, but he will never do it for himself. This is what he was told by his master since he was a child.The reason, Cha Wenbin has also considered, and finally he thinks this way:

Because once a person has a glimpse of his own future, he will find ways to change his destiny, and from the perspective of numerology, this is irreversible.Whether you will be rich or not, and whether there will be catastrophe, these are all predestined, no matter whether you know how to tell fortunes, your fate is the same, the result of hard work is at most a little bit good-looking, and it is impossible to fundamentally change .

Another reason is that everyone has selfishness, and Zha Wenbin is no exception. Everyone hopes that their horoscope will have a better future, and they always feel that fate should not be so unfair to them. Wrong thoughts will change the way of heaven that I have been pursuing.Therefore, many truly masters can only understand their own numerology through others, in order not to be biased.

Therefore, Cha Wenbin thinks that the master told him not to tell his fortune because he was afraid that he would be affected by selfish desires, and that he would be disheartened when he knew his own destiny. trap.However, this person is often more likely to suffer because the more he avoids, the cause and effect are unclear and unclear. He simply closes his curiosity and strives to understand the way of heaven, especially when he learns that people can't do anything except There is a more profound and incomprehensible destiny besides destiny, so I don't care about my own destiny even more.

Once you come, you will be safe, this is what Cha Wenbin has been saying to himself in this lost world, since the fate needs to come here for a while, even if you die here, you will belong to the fate, after all, you can’t hide Yes, it's just a matter of choosing to die with understanding or die with confusion.

Cha Wenbin inspected the bones, but found no ghost artifacts such as soul-destroying nails, and no signs of ghosts. It was so empty that only a pair of incomplete remains remained. Only the sharp bronze was still telling him about the killings of the past: Struggling with his twisted body and howling heart-piercingly, a gurgle of blood flowed down the blood-guiding trough in the middle of the bronze branch into the vessel under his feet. The bloody bronze vessel left in a hurry, leaving only the withered corpse slowly weathering and rotting here.

As for their purpose of doing so, it may be punishment or sacrifice. The ancients did not have no record of blood sacrifice.According to historical records, in the history of various ethnic groups, there have been cases where living people or live animals were used as sacrifices to bless agricultural production and prosperity, and the lives of ethnic groups are safe. You cannot look at these seemingly barbaric and bloody events from a modern perspective. Behavior, because it is part of history, we can only interpret, not criticize.

After affirming that this was some kind of blood sacrifice activity, Cha Wenbin couldn't bear to think about that scene again, because the mottled black residue on the base of the bronze tree and the tripod-shaped utensil used to hold blood is enough to explain everything. It is all because of the traces formed after the oxidation of blood. It seems that if we want to fully understand this place, we have to go deeper. We know too little about history, especially this kind of civilization that has disappeared. No one can explain how they were built. Without this history, no one can explain how they destroyed themselves.Regarding this point, there are many unsolved mysteries all over the world, I believe, that is only what we have discovered temporarily, and there are many more that we don't know or have been buried in the ground forever, or have disappeared in the long river of history middle.Just like the way he is good at, the master just taught him the spells, talismans and the rules passed down for thousands of years. Who created these, he just heard the legends, and who knows the truth? Woolen cloth?Who really cared?

Just like the six soul-destroying nails in his hand at the moment, the ghost seals on them are exactly the same as those on the bronze door, the five elements, three realms and eight trigrams outside, and the ten large bronze coffins, which display the technique of round poles vividly and delicately, even a Taoist priest like him They were all amazed.And these things are obviously only understood by a few people who are proficient Taoists in modern times, but this seemingly irrelevant underground world can be seen everywhere, and they are used with great proficiency.Also, how much is that group of mysterious words related to the "Book of Wishes", who made these exquisite and huge bronze vessels, and who is the living dead lying in the coffin?The ancient battle of the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou was actually copied here. What is the real face of Qifeng Mountain? He has seen the legend of Yinglong Gaoshui with his own eyes. Take the three-legged toad who has become a partner as an example. There are endless stories, in short, there are too many questions and too many mysteries.

Whether Chao Zi and Zhuo Xiong are dead or alive, have they escaped from this dangerous area, and who was injured by Lao Wang and Leng Yiran, but they cannot be saved even by Hui Hun Xiang, what is their fate now? The road ahead of him is still unknown, but he has to remember so much. For the first time, Cha Wenbin felt that he was really tired. If he was just a farmer, would he still work in that small mountain village at sunrise and sunset? And interest.If it wasn't for the sake of saving my aunt's life and forcibly snatching her soul, wouldn't her daughter be snuggling in his arms and acting coquettishly with him?

When he was born, Fang Buddha was arranged to be associated with all these things. Because he was raised by his master, he became a Taoist priest; I went to save my aunt, but lost my daughter; finally, because of me, I got to know Lao Wang and He Lao, and realized that there is still destiny; finally, because of them, I came here in a daze, and Cha Wenbin sat under the bronze tree and thought about it carefully In my own life, I gave a wry smile: "Dude, I'm afraid this is my fate. Do you think I should count it for myself, and take the lead for the two of us, and ask where we should go."

Naturally, the three-legged toad would not understand what he was thinking. Could it be that it blinked its huge eyes, just squatting on the ground and looking at him, maybe it also wanted to comfort this "person" with whom it had a lot of fate, maybe it didn't know anything at all. I don't understand, it's just a coincidence that Jialuo understood human nature and got together with Cha Wenbin. After all, it's just a toad, even if it's a spirit beast, it's just a toad.

Cha Wenbin touched the nose of the three-legged toad. He seemed to like to touch the nose of this ridiculously big toad. Perhaps, from the bottom of his heart, he really regarded it as his friend, and said with a sigh : "Forget it, forget it, buddy, let's continue on our way, old rules, remind me if there is something wrong, don't wait for me to be in danger next time before making a move, or lose me, and see who will open the door for you again." After finishing speaking, he patted the bridge of his nose lightly as punishment.

The toad puffed out its belly and gave a "croak", which was considered to have complied with his request. The two walked along the wet cave, walking unhappily, one behind the other, and slowly disappeared into the darkness.
