Netherworld Chapter 136 Yama (3)
How is this possible... I just can't believe it.
What is Yama? Legend has it that there are ten Yama, each one is different and controls life and death. This is a legend that is comparable to the Western god of death. In an ancient proverb, there is a saying if Yama wants you to die at three o'clock in the morning, he will not let you live until five o'clock.
I once summoned the Dharma images of the Ten Halls of the Wheel Kings at the Changping battlefield and sealed hundreds of thousands of ghosts with one strike. But now, the undertaker is going to become Yama, who is even more powerful than the Dharma image?
This is unlikely... I asked.
Nothing is impossible, at least he has started now, the Taoist replied.
Isn’t Yama a Buddhist legend? If you want to talk about some ghost or something like that, I can still accept that, but this Yama... I asked in a low voice: Isn’t the underworld a Taoist legend?
The old Taoist priest looked at me and said: Rivers flow into the river, rivers flow into the sea, and the sea accepts hundreds of rivers. I heard that there are countries overseas, and some of their officials are not natives. What's more, above Yama there are six heavenly palaces, five ghost emperors, and even the Heavenly Equal Benevolent Saint Emperor.
I groaned and understood what the Taoist meant. No matter how much Buddhist legends are integrated, in this small area, Taoism is still the one that has the final say. But why do I feel that the Taoist is a bit of an angry young man...
However, it is still hard for people to accept the fact that the undertaker of corpses is Yama! Even if he is only in charge of the underworld, aren't those of us who have not yet become immortals also under the jurisdiction of the underworld?
Where is the original Yama here? I suddenly thought of this question.
The old Taoist shook his head and said, "I don't know. But according to ancient records, Yama has been around since ancient times, and he took office at different times, which is called the Ten Palaces. But a thousand years ago, the theory of the underworld gradually declined, and I don't know why. Now it seems that it should be related to the fiefdom. Maybe Yama was also sealed like those ghost messengers.
But this is too easy...
It's not easy. The old Taoist denied my words and said: The corpse-embalming lineage began to prepare seventy years ago, fighting for luck in that war, and suppressed it with the Zhou family's demon-slaying sword, and has survived until today. In that war, more than ten million people died in China alone. So much luck was only bestowed on one person. Such a great power is hard to guess.
I couldn't help but smack my lips. More than 10 million people, and this is still a conservative number. The corpse vein specializes in taking away the luck of the dead. In that era, if it was vigorously developed, it would surely rise rapidly in a short period of time. Not to mention being comparable to the emperor vein, but it is definitely not difficult to be compared with the heavenly corpse vein.
But they have always endured, preserving the enormous amount of luck and fortune and passing it down to this day.
Although there is only one person left to inherit the corpse vein, this one person has calculated the whole world. Even the underworld will soon be under his control.
This strategy of not taking the present into consideration but only seeking the world's benefit is shocking.
I subconsciously looked at the undertaker behind the table. He was very young, not much older than me. But now, he would become the legendary Yama.
Burying the corpse, that's really a bold idea, comparable to the Emperor of Heaven's intention to kill the immortals and become an immortal two thousand years ago.
If he becomes Yama, what effect will it have on us? I am very curious about this.
Didn't Wei Qingcang say that he would start the reincarnation and let the Heavenly Order reappear? When the old Taoist said this, his face was calm, as if it was nothing at all. He continued: By then, there will be no one in the world who can take away the luck, but it will be easy to become a Yama, and the corpse vein will rise up under a different name. Even the Emperor Vein cannot compare with it.
I opened my mouth wide, extremely shocked by what the Taoist said.
If you think about it carefully, what the old Taoist said is absolutely correct. Yama controls life and death. After the reincarnation begins, every dead person will enter the underworld to reincarnate. The undertaker can send the person to any place he wants to be reincarnated, and he can also retain his memory.
Perhaps many people don’t understand this statement.
To put it simply, if the undertaker leaves a group of people in the underworld and develops them into his disciples, and then sends these disciples to the bellies of the wives of the heads of the major forces, in a few decades, the whole world will be the undertaker's bloodline.
This is a bit similar to the Infernal Affairs movie in the millennium, but in comparison, the police and criminal game in Infernal Affairs is really weak...
I was just thinking about it when I heard the old Taoist say: According to ancient legends, Yama can help people to be rich and prosperous by sending them to reincarnate. Because the underworld is under the jurisdiction of the heaven, it can control part of the human destiny. This is the difference between life and death.
My head is about to explode, this is too outrageous, too buggy.
It's fine that Wei Qingcang started cheating in advance, but now the corpse man is cheating? He has tampered with the server and is ready to become an administrator!
You can’t compare... You really can’t compare... If I keep comparing like this, I’ll want to commit suicide.
We... I hesitated, but still asked: Can we stop him?
The old Taoist looked at me and asked: What we want to stop is the resurrection of the Emperor of Heaven.
This is true, but I feel that the reason why the old Taoist looked at me is because he has seen through my thoughts.
He knew very well that the reason I asked if it could be stopped was not because of my ancestral teachings, nor for the sake of the people of the world.
Because I'm jealous, I can't eat grapes and drink a bucket of vinegar.
Thinking about my future reincarnation, which will all be controlled by the undertaker, I felt uncomfortable all over. It was as if a bug had burrowed into my heart, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.
I really don't want to admit it, but this feeling is the truth and I can't refute my heart.
So how do we stop the Emperor of Heaven from resurrecting? It was only at this time that I really wanted to do this, which made me feel a little embarrassed and guilty when facing the old Taoist.
The old Taoist didn't look at me much, he turned his head and said: Wait, wait for that possible opportunity. But if we really can't stop it... your eight ropes can reach the netherworld, maybe you won't enter this so-called reincarnation.
Really? I was surprised and delighted to hear this.
If you can completely inherit the Eight Ropes, the old Taoist added.
This immediately put my originally excited mood into a state of underestimation. The Eight Ropes inheritance is extremely vast, and without someone to guide me, I don’t even know how to learn it.
Although the jade pendant can be granted by divine power, it seems to be limited. I have no idea how to activate the divine power as soon as possible.
If this continues, I probably won’t be able to finish learning until I die.
At this time, the battle not far away had ended.
Anyone who accidentally rushed into the Yama Palace was killed. Those who felt the ghost veins set up a formation to prevent anyone else from coming in. As for those disciples of the same vein who died in the battle, no one cared.
Wei Qingcang's body was covered with a lot of blood. He seemed to enjoy killing people very much. He wiped the blood on his face with his sleeve and walked over with a big laugh: "It seems that the master has figured it out. It's better to accept the order without any hesitation."
The old Taoist priest didn't even turn his head, but still replied: Master Wei seems to be very supportive of this matter, but do you really know the pros and cons of it?
Wei Qingcang had walked up to us. He smiled and said: Of course I know. If I didn’t understand this, how could I abandon the children of the Wei family?
After hearing what he said, the old Taoist stopped talking.
Wei Qingcang didn't care and looked at me: "If this plan succeeds, you will be credited with great merit. If my Wei family reaches the top one day and you are interested, you can come to me."
I was stunned. I didn't expect Wei Qingcang to win me over at this time. But what was there about me that was worthy of him winning me over? Did he think I was a potential stock?
People should not underestimate themselves. A fledgling today will be an eagle tomorrow. Wei Qingcang said with a smile.
I have to admit that in addition to his extraordinary martial arts and meticulous thinking, Wei Qingcang is also very good at talking. No wonder the Wei family wanted to kill him in the first place . Otherwise, with his ability, if he is given some time, he will definitely be able to escape the position of the head of the family.
I don't like this person because I always feel that he is two-faced. He says one thing but does another.
But if I think about it carefully, almost all the practitioners I have met are like this, even the old Taoist priests are no exception.
Alas, it’s a pity that it’s too early, otherwise my disciples… A hoarse old voice suddenly sounded.
I don't know when Shen Lao came over, smacking his lips, with a look of regret. He was still wrapped in black clothes, with two beast-like claws tucked into his sleeves, looking very scary.
I am a little afraid of him, because every time I see him, I feel like I am filming a horror movie but accidentally encounter a real ghost.
Small loss brings big gain, be contented and happy, haha. Wei Qingcang laughed.
Mr. Shen also laughed strangely, and the sound was like two pieces of iron rubbing against each other, or like an old crow croaking.
In the distance, the group of disciples who were also wrapped in black clothes were surrounded by dark shadows under the illumination of the ghost fire. At this moment, the entire Yama Palace seemed to be filled with ghosts dancing wildly, which was extremely terrifying.
