A new world with an estimated one million inhabitants, all of them spirit beings. However, there are still many human corpses in this city. Except for Shapi and Jinjila, the others are all evolved humans who originally lived in the city. Since Momo can transform the little baby girl Shaluo into that new life balance, so can these people, and this is what Momo told Shapi before that she would not die.
In Momo's mind, there are several ways to die.
The first type: The life cycle of the biological body in the real world is destroyed, the body dies, and the connection with the soul is cut off, causing the soul to exist alone. An individual soul will be eroded in the normal world. For most people today, even though they know that the soul has not completely dissipated, they have no way to preserve it. That's why things like soul-releasing wood, which can preserve souls, are so precious.
This is the most common way of death. Momo thinks that this is not a real death, but just a change of life form - soul form. However, this soul form is incompatible with this large environment, so it cannot exist alone for a long time. The only thing that can allow a spirit body to exist for a long time is the underworld formed by a special environment.
The wisdom of the ancients sometimes cannot even be explained by future generations. Are places like the Terracotta Warriors and Pyramids really just for paying homage to the dead, or are they meant to preserve the soul for a longer period of time
The second type: the soul dies, leaving only the body.
Can
Can!
Momo can clearly feel that she can do this now. If it were before, if Momo erased other people's souls, their bodies would also die at the same time. But now Momo feels that she can directly cut off the connection between the soul and the body. Whether it is pulling the soul out or directly erasing it, she can continue to maintain the survival of the body. However, Momo herself has never tried what such a simple physical survival will look like. [
The third type: both body and soul disappear into the world. Consciousness has lost all its carriers, and of course it has completely disappeared from the entire world.
To be precise, this way of death can be considered a complete death, leaving nothing behind.
The first two methods can only be regarded as the life form is not complete enough. If there are suitable methods, it should be possible to recover. Of course, in the eyes of others, this means almost the same thing as the so-called resurrection. For example, what Momo is planning to do now.
…
Momo quickly found Shapi and Jinjila, the two guys were guarding in front of her body. Seeing Momo coming here, Jinjila immediately rushed over and complained to Momo coquettishly. Jinjila can be said to be the most unlucky guy, and he died in a mysterious way.
"Okay, nothing's wrong. There's nothing wrong with your soul, and your body is generally intact. I can resurrect you."
"Meow~ Can you be resurrected?" Jinjila was thrown into the White Underworld by Momo before and never came out. She didn't know what happened outside, so she was a little confused.
"Well, but it's not resurrection in the usual sense. Your life forms will be changed." Momo said.
"I can reconnect your body and soul. However, this time it is no longer the life cycle of the body that is in charge, but the soul. Your soul serves as the leader, absorbing the breath of the underworld and maintaining itself. and the continued existence of the body. From that time on, you are considered residents of the Kingdom of the Underworld." Momo nodded.
"It's so difficult to understand!" Jinjila tilted her head in confusion.
"Is it difficult to understand?" Momo thought it was not difficult to understand.
"I can't say that all life has a body and a soul, but at least the creatures on the earth do. The creatures on the earth generally have two life cycle systems, corresponding to the body and the soul. The first one is the life of the body. Cycle, eat food, and convert it into biological energy. Second, the soul automatically absorbs the energy that escapes from the space and releases the energy needed for life. If you understand the Dharma, you might as well understand the first type as 'Yang Qi', And the second type is, of course, 'Yin Qi'." Momo stopped and explained to Shapi and Jinjila, just as she was planning to sort out the information.
"In ancient times, some people said who has more yang energy and who has more yin energy, it's just that the two life cycles are different. Of course, in the outside world, because of the big laws of the world, in the eyes of the world, of course Yang energy is better. But ancient Chinese Taoists have discovered this a long time ago, so they pay attention to the balance of yin and yang." Momo continued to explain that some of the theories Bai Yi accidentally talked about in the past were actually very useful.
"My ability belongs to the soul from a long time ago."
"I can help your body and soul re-establish the connection. However, because your body has died and there is a problem with my abilities, your new life cycle will be the life cycle of the second soul. Lord." Momo raised a finger. [
"Yin Qi!" At this time, Vera and others also came to the side and listened quietly to Momo's explanation.
"That's right, Yin Qi can also be said to be Dark Qi." Momo nodded.
"Of course, in fact, this is just a matter of the different environmental laws of the world, which lead to different adaptability of life. In the outside world, Yang Qi dominates, so the first life cycle is the most important. But here ..." Momo stretched out her right hand, as if to grab the sky here. "This is the White Underworld. The laws of this world belong to Yin Qi, or underworld Qi. Therefore, the normal life here should be based on the second life cycle."
In different worlds, because of different environmental laws, the adaptability of life is different!
Vera and others are not stupid, and they have quickly understood the meaning of what Momo said. Even on the earth, they can be divided into marine animals, desert creatures, and forest creatures. But now, it is just a little more mysterious. It is not only the difference in life forms, but the difference in physical attributes and souls.
"And death?"
"Real death should be the death of both body and soul, when consciousness loses its carrier and disappears completely." Momo also added.
In fact, Jinjila was still in a daze, and Shapi was okay and had somewhat understood it. However, Jinjila was not that experienced and did not understand it at all. However, Jinjila still understands one thing. She can be resurrected, but she just changes her life form. Doesn't matter, just think of it as changing your hairstyle after moving... Hmm.
Momo stretched out her right hand, grabbed Jinjila's soul out of thin air, and then re-fused it into her body. The life field fluctuated, and Momo controlled Jinjila's soul and body to begin to merge again. But this time, Jinjila had just started to merge, and Momo noticed a strong pressure. It is completely different from the previous Sarao. It seems that because of the different power of life, the difficulty of rebuilding the life cycle is also completely different.
No one bothered Momo. No one could help with this kind of thing.
Momo's hair gradually fluttered and turned silver. As Momo's appearance changed, the pressure on the surrounding souls became stronger and stronger. The surrounding souls who were still watching from a distance all shrank back, fearing that Momo would start to get angry again. After a while, Momo's hands turned around and suddenly changed, forming four complicated Indian postures.
The so-called ten-finger-to-heart connection means that the hand is an extension of the soul, and the mudras are not just finger movements, but the use of enhanced abilities. In fact, Momo herself didn't know what these four seals represented, but after the four seals were completed, Jinjila suddenly felt a shock in her body, as if her soul had returned to its original position and merged with her body again.
Jinjila stood up, looked at her paws in confusion, and then scratched her forehead. There was a fatal wound that was not closed.
"Your life cycle is now dominated by the soul, and there are no fatal wounds on the body. This kind of injury will recover automatically." Momo explained briefly, and then looked at Shapi.
"Do you need a rest?"
"No need." Momo shook her head. Building a new life cycle becomes more difficult for a body that has been dead for a long time. After all, it's just that the emphasis is different, it doesn't mean that the body has completely become a dead thing.
"Sharpi, are you willing to help me protect this world?" Momo said suddenly when she was preparing to help Sharpei recover. Shapi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then nodded seriously. How many years have passed since that rainy day when a little Shar Pei and the baby girl met, they have already formed an indissoluble bond.
"Then, I will give you the power to protect this world!" Momo's eyes suddenly lit up.
Sharpei's body and soul floated up and gradually merged together. And not only that, Momo's eyes became brighter and brighter, and the surrounding dark energy continued to fill Shapi's body. Shapi's neck suddenly tore apart and condensed into the phantom of a new head. The three-headed dog, the legendary watchdog of the underworld. Vera and others had an unconventional sense of déjà vu. Is this what the legend is, or is Momo making up the legend
Knot!
The princess crown on Momo's head lit up, and something came out. Sharpei stood on the ground, his three heads raised to the sky and roared suddenly. The strong sound waves vibrated, causing ripples to appear throughout the entire Hades space. All the other souls around felt trembling in their hearts. This was... Momo gave Shapi the ability to kill the souls of this world.
After a long time, Sharpi's screams stopped, then the third head gradually disappeared, and his breath became normal. But everyone knows that when Shar-pi shows his third head, he is the real watchdog of the underworld.
