The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 208 The Beginning of Reincarnation
"Did you feel it?" After the doctor left, the two returned to the room with the medicine. Ning Yuan said to Yang Yang, "His body..."

"Yeah." Yang Yang nodded and interrupted what he was going to say next, not because he didn't want to hear it, but because he really didn't want to recall the creepy feeling at that time.

To be honest, Yang Yang felt that he might have a shadow over the normal warm body temperature of human beings for a long time.

Seeing that Yang Yang didn't want to mention it, Ning Yuan closed his mouth in understanding. After all, to him, it was like opening the door to a new world. Although it was a bit unbelievable, it was not so difficult to understand.

Seeing that Ning Yuan stopped talking, Yang Yang sighed, repeated what Yuan Mu had said to him, and said, "So you see, this matter is completely beyond the scope of my comprehension. It's just me, even Yuan Mu and the others have to think about it before they know what's going on!"

"What Yuan Mu told you is a common phenomenon, right? Is it possible that there are some special people..." Ning Yuan paused meaningfully before continuing to ask: "Are they able to do this?"

"Impossible!" Yang Yang shook his head when he heard his words and said, "You have studied monsters for so long, so you must know Houtu, right?"

"Houtu? Empress Dowager?" Hearing what he said, Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does this have to do with Empress Dowager?"

"Of course it has something to do with it." Yang Yang waved at Ning Yuan while talking, motioning him to sit down beside him, "You know the empress of the emperor, but do you know what the empress of the emperor is?"

"Emperor Empress...I don't know...but if I'm not wrong, it should be the name of a great god in ancient times?" Ning Yuan, who didn't know much about things other than monsters, was a little uncertain.

"Half right, there are two people, the emperor and the empress. I believe you must know this." Yang Yang smiled at him, and then explained: "But, they are not the names of the ancient gods, but the names of the ancient great witches." name."

"Great Witch? What is that?" For Ning Yuan, monsters are still within the scope of understanding, but other than that, the Witch Clan is a distant legend. There are not many ancient books that record the Witch Clan. The large-scale seclusion of the Shangwu people made even fewer people know about them.

"Great Wu... Do you know the Wu Clan?" Yang Yang originally wanted to explain the big Wu to him, but suddenly realized that he might not even know what the Wu Clan is, so he asked, "You have always heard of the Wu Clan Ah! If the Wu clan has never heard of it, then you at least know about Chi You?"

"I know about Chi You." Although he didn't study much about other legends, Ning Yuan still knew a little about a very famous person like Chi You.

"Chi You is the leader of the Wu Clan." Hearing that he knew it, Yang Yang nodded and continued to popularize science for him, "But don't you think it's strange? At that time, the Wu Clan was fighting with the Human Clan, how could they be defeated?" Will it disappear later?"

"I haven't thought about this question." Hearing what he said, Ning Yuan shook his head and said that he didn't know clearly. However, when he saw Yang Yang's expression that hesitated to speak, he immediately said, "But what do you say? I also find it strange..."

"Don't talk to me with such an expression and tone!" Yang Yang couldn't bear to touch the goosebumps on his arm when he saw his deliberately flattering appearance, "I want to know what's going on! I didn't mean to trick you, I really don't know!"

"You also know that it is not surprising that such ancient legends have been distorted until now, so Yuan Mu and the others are the first-hand information. Although those people may be just legends to us, they are good for them. Friends and brothers, gossip about brothers behind their backs always seems a bit strange, doesn't it?"

While talking, Yang Yang recalled: "So I actually just listened to what they said about a lot of things, and I knew that the so-called big witch should be the name of a more powerful person from the witch clan? Call the big demon."

As Yang Yang said, he stretched out his hand and scratched his head and said, "But I remember that Houtu is a bit more advanced than them? I heard that he is one of the twelve ancestors of witches. As for what the ancestors of twelve witches are, I don't know very well."

"Houtu is the Twelve Witch Ancestors, and then?" Ning Yuan nodded, expressing that he understood Yang Yang's explanation and foreshadowing. What does our business have to do with today?"

"Actually, it might not be related." Yang Yang said hesitantly, "Of course these are just my guesses! I dare not say what happened, but Yuan Mu told me at the time that after Houtu died, He turned into the six realms of reincarnation. Later, in the war between the Wu tribe and the human tribe, a large number of creatures died, and the monster tribe was also involved. Then the Kunlun Mountain God came forward and presided over the opening of the underworld, allowing the creatures to enter the six realms of reincarnation after death. If I remember correctly, Now the one guarding the six realms of reincarnation is also a great witch?"

"This matter was just mentioned by Yuan Mu and Yu Zhongwu when they were chatting. It's not easy for me to ask for specifics, so I only know this, but what I know is that the relationship between the Wu Clan and the Human Clan has always been bad. The six realms of reincarnation of the incarnation are guarded by the Wu Clan, so how could it be possible for the Clan to intervene?" Yang Yang said.

Then he turned his head and glanced at Ning Yuan and said: "You can feel it too, his body is warm, and he told us at that time that his body was soaked in formalin, so this is no longer the ability to resurrect the dead." It's explained."

"Borrowing a corpse..." Ning Yuan repeated Yang Yang's words, and then asked with some doubts: "Isn't borrowing a corpse to resurrect you? It's very similar to what we saw today. What do you think?" Isn't it right?"

"Of course it's not right!" Hearing what he said, Yang Yang rolled his eyes, "Have you ever seen a corpse that was hot? Resurrection is just to temporarily seal a person's soul on a corpse, so that people who should have entered the six realms of reincarnation A way for the soul to escape being sucked away by the six realms of reincarnation. At most, it can be done by letting the soul say something through the mouth of the corpse and do some simple actions. But like today...?"

Yang Yang thought of the expression and movements of the person who called himself "doctor" today, and couldn't help but shudder, and said, "Such a situation is basically impossible!"

"We have also discussed these recent events, and we all agree that the Taoist sect is behind it."

After listening to Yang Yang's explanation, Ning Yuan expressed his own thoughts: "Is it possible that the Daoist sect has developed a method to avoid the control of the six realms of reincarnation you mentioned?"

"After all, according to what you said, the human race and the witch race have always disliked each other. The reincarnation is transformed by the witch race and is taken care of by the witch race. A little bit, but I haven't heard that it is possible to live forever, right? So...maybe some people don't want to practice for so long and then fall short because of death, so they came up with such a way to extend their lives?"

"But it doesn't make sense, right?" Although Ning Yuan's guess is not unreasonable, Yang Yang is a little puzzled, "You have to know that even if a person in the Taoist sect dies, there are sects or friends who will protect him and enter the reincarnation. Reincarnation and its caretakers don’t care about it. And I heard from Chi Dun that most cultivators, after rushing into reincarnation and becoming human, their friends or masters will give him hints and take him back into reincarnation. The door of cultivating the Tao, due to the foundation of the previous life, practice is more effective with half the effort."

"If this is the case... Doesn't that mean that once you feel that you have no breakthrough, you can die?" Ning Yuan raised his eyebrows, a little unbelievable, "It's the same as playing a game. Once it doesn't work, cut off the number and reset Come on, anyway, if you have previous experience, you will be able to upgrade quickly, so why do you have to practice desperately, and you have to die before you enter reincarnation? Is there any other point in doing this besides wasting time?"

Ning Yuan's words made Yang Yang not know how to answer for a while. Indeed, if there are so many benefits to practicing rebirth, then why are there so many people who would rather die? Woolen cloth?
Even if you don't have a teacher's school, after hundreds of years, it's not difficult to find a reliable friend!

"There must be something in it that we've overlooked."

Seeing that Yang Yang didn't speak, Ning Yuan knew that his thinking was correct. He looked at Yang Yang and said, "However, the two of us alone might not be able to figure this out clearly. After all, you and I are both non-cultivators. , so we only know a rough idea of ​​these things, but I think it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and it is impossible for someone to do things against nature, so..."

"So we still have to wait until Yuan Mu and the others come to rescue us." Yang Yang directly skipped a lot of analysis, and gave the final answer, "Without them explaining to us, we'd be thinking about it, and we probably wouldn't be able to think of the reason."

"Yeah." Ning Yuan nodded, turned his head to glance at the sunny garden outside the window, and sighed: "I just don't know when they will come."

"The big deal is to wait." Hearing what he said, Yang Yang smiled wryly, "Anyway, there will be no worse time than now."

"That's true." Ning Yuan agreed with his words, "Anyway, the worst thing is that we are harassed by that doctor every three days, and you are taken to ask some questions, but they don't know that their patience is exhausted first. Or Yuan Mu and the others found us first."
