Leisurely Cultivation Time

Chapter 229 Nurturing Spirits
Seeing the five-step snake obediently retreating to the side, the three people behind looked at Ye Fei with different eyes.

"Ye Fei, could you just let the snake listen to you?" Ye Jinglu asked with a strange expression.

"It doesn't count as listening to me." Ye Fei replied: "I've met it before, and made friends with him. If you ask a friend to step aside first, your friend should not object."

"Have you met it before? When?" Ye Rongtian was also puzzled.

"It was the last time I came to Taolin. Didn't I show you a video before? It's the snake in the video."

"The one in the video? That one doesn't seem that big." Ye Xue also said doubtfully.

"I don't know about that, maybe I ate something good." Ye Fei shrugged and said that he didn't know, otherwise he couldn't say that he was helping him through the vegetation.

Looking at the three of them, they still looked curious.Ye Fei hurriedly said: "Okay, let's sweep the grave quickly, and I will go to sweep the grave of my grandma later."

It was only then that everyone remembered that today was the tomb sweeping, and the four of them started to get busy, pulling weeds and cleaning the tomb.

It's just that the three of them didn't dare to go to the area where the five-step snake was located, so Ye Fei cleared this area.

After a while, the whole tomb was almost cleaned up, and they began to place offerings and light joss sticks.

Then one of them divided three sticks of incense and bowed three times to the tombstone together, and then Ye Jinglu put away the other three's incense and put them together in front of the tombstone.

Then the four of them stood up again, knelt down to worship the tombstone at the same time, got up, knelt down and bowed again, got up again, knelt down and bowed down again, and bowed three times in total.

The next step was to burn the paper, put the prepared paper on the empty seat and burn it, and the four of them sat down to rest.

According to Ye Jinglu, grandpa is eating now, we have to wait for a while, wait for grandpa to eat and drink enough, then set off a string of firecrackers, and then we can pack up and leave.

Taking advantage of the rest time, Ye Fei looked at the big snake, and saw that it was still obediently lying on the edge of the jungle and watching them.

Ye Fei walked over, and the big snake seemed to sense Ye Fei's approach, and raised its head excitedly.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, you've grown up so much, haven't you had a good time recently?" Ye Fei said to it with a smile.

"Sizzling~"

Ye Fei was a little helpless, unable to perceive what the other party was saying, suddenly he thought of something, behind his father, grandfather, and Ye Xue secretly took out the mountain god jade card, and then activated him with his heart.

When Ye Fei activated the Mountain God Jade Card, the big snake reacted instantly. It seemed to have a little more awe when it was only showing a friendly gesture towards Ye Fei.

"This is my great-grandfather's tomb. Why are you here? What are you doing here? Is your cave near here?"

"Sizzling~"

"Sizzling~"

This time Ye Fei could clearly hear what it meant, and it probably meant: "Cultivate the spirit, nurture your own spirituality."

Ye Fei was puzzled again: "Cultivating spirits? How to cultivate spirits? What does this have to do with the tomb?"

"Sizzling~"

"Sizzling~"

"Sizzling sizzling~"

Through the other party's explanation, Ye Fei combined his own knowledge, and roughly understood what Orochi said about nurturing spirits.

The growth of any living thing is inseparable from spirituality, and human beings are no exception. However, human beings are born with spirituality, but there are different levels, so different people naturally have different achievements.

Animals are different. They are muddled from birth, and will not be born with a trace of spirituality until they grow to a certain age.Their spirituality can be said to have been close to nature for a long time, and only then has they received a trace of natural gifts.

But many animals die before they can live for this time, and most of them die from the hunting of natural enemies, so very few wild animals can give birth to spirituality, and then become spirits.

In addition to this method of becoming a master, there is another way, that is, like a rooster, stay beside human beings to learn human nature and open up wisdom, so as to achieve the purpose of improving spirituality.

It's just that the animals raised by humans may not live as long as wild animals before they are on the table.

Or some animals have been influenced by humans since they were young, and have not even formed a supervisory consciousness. They can only live by instinct, let alone spirituality.Therefore, the proportion of animals becoming sperm in this world is very low.

Then I will talk about why the big snake nurtures spirits on the tomb.

When animals develop spirituality, the subjective consciousness will have the ability to think, and it will feel that the growth time of spirituality is too slow and long.

So they will think about speeding up the process, but how?They set their sights on humans.

Of course, what he was targeting was not the living, but the dead.

Everything in the world follows the laws of nature, and humans are no exception, so after death, like other living things, they will be slowly corroded by bacteria and microorganisms and become nutrients for the earth.

Consciousness will naturally dissipate after death without a support, and the only thing that will not dissipate immediately is spirituality.

The spirituality of creatures should be broken down by nature just like the physical body, but as human nature becomes more and more complex, the spirituality no longer remains pure.

That nature cannot be easily integrated into the natural world, only through the long-term purification of the natural world, the spirituality will return to its original purity, and then it will return to nature.

Of course, this spirituality also needs a process when it returns to nature, and the animals are focusing on this process of spirituality dissipating.

They will choose a purified spirituality, occupy here, and absorb part of the spirituality in the process of dissipating the spirituality, so as to improve their own spirituality.

This is the cultivation method of wild animals. They don't have contact with living people, and they don't need to learn human nature and principles. Naturally, they don't have the complex emotions and desires of human beings, and their hearts maintain their original purity.

That's why there is such a big difference between the big snake and the big rooster. Before Ye Fei tamed the one, his whole body was full of hostility, but when the big snake saw Ye Fei, his face was full of joy.

To say that Ye Fei helped the other party at the beginning, after the air of vegetation that Ye Fei gave it was completely absorbed by it, the physical body became stronger and could carry more spirituality.

This also accelerated its growth a lot, allowing it to better absorb the dissipated spirituality.So when it saw Ye Fei again, it was very happy.

At this time, Ye Feixin also had an idea, no wonder the country people have this saying:
There are snakes in the ancestral graves, the spirits of the ancestors.Good luck.The snake in the ancestral grave is the home of the soul of the ancestors, so don't hurt it.

It is true to say that the snake was attracted by the spirituality, and it also absorbed part of the spirituality, so it can be regarded as indeed containing the spirit of the ancestors.

It's just that the so-called soul theory later has no basis. There is no soul in this world.

People's consciousness loses the support of the physical body after death, and there is only one way to dissipate, unless they can find a new support for the conscious body through some means of reversing the laws of nature.

However, the price of this kind of behavior is also very high. Everything in this world follows nature. If you reverse nature and shake the entire law of nature with one person, of course the law of nature will not let you go easily.
