The Legend of Manhua

Chapter 33

Both Senior Rizhi and Ziying looked at Manhua with puzzled expressions.

"This can be explained by the theory of yin and yang. Although Lingya is really a phoenix, she has not returned to her true identity and survived as a ghost. During the day, the yang energy rises and the yin energy sinks. This is the most difficult time for ghosts. The body has to be stiffened to block the damage of the sun. The degree of stiffness varies with different cultivation levels. Some can be seen at a glance, while others appear to be the same as usual. If bloodletting is done at this time, the veins must extend in all directions before blood can be taken. Doing so is easy to be damaged by sunlight and is irreversible. At night, Yin Qi rises and sinks. This is the best time for ghosts to practice and cultivate. The body absorbs the spirit of moonlight and the Yin of night, and begins to repair the suffering suffered during the day. If you cut your flesh and injure your body at this time, if you don’t advance but retreat, if things go on like this, your body will go downhill, and sooner or later you will be wiped out. Senior Rizhi knows that turning it upside down can save his life, so he must know this truth."

Senior Yuezhi was noncommittal, and Manhua said again: "At that time, the whole ghost city regarded harsh words as the standard, and never had the slightest doubt, and most of them at that time had not advanced enough to have the ability to think like this, but the senior was extraordinary, he could have You are in the fairy class, but you are born with freedom. You choose to travel around and have been to all walks of life. In the end, you choose to stay in the ghost town. The original place of right and wrong gradually became more orderly because of you. You brought it out. In the mortal world or other places, ghosts are just wisps of shadows wandering around, but only in ghost towns can they have bodies. The blood is black, the face is stiff and blue, and it doesn’t matter if the limbs are uncoordinated. , As long as you work hard, you can live like ordinary people, and they are all real existences. This is the last hope and destination for many lonely souls and wild ghosts. Senior Rizhi has done so much, do you think you can rest now? "

Senior Yuezhi laughed until his beard trembled wildly, and said while laughing: "It is time to rest, after all, I have worked so hard until now, and a new era has come, I am an old man who has few days left, I should have rested a long time ago." Yes." Senior Rizhi stopped laughing at this time, and his expression became melancholy, "But how can I feel at ease if I have scolded this child... He is my most proud student, he is indeed proud and indulgent, his ability But it is worthy of calling him arrogant, in fact, his mind and sense of responsibility are beyond the reach of an old man like me, and it may take several years to talk about him." At this time, Senior Rizhi showed a peaceful smile, and continued Said: "Yanning is also a good boy, considerate, gentle and respectful, never show off and never talk too much. It is said that I built the ghost city by myself, but it is better to say that I met these two children at the right time, Anyone else in my position can do the same. One is arrogant and extreme, the other is gentle and upright, there will always be moments of disagreement and parting. Now Yanning has a good place to go, but Yinli is homeless. I don’t know whether it is death or Live." Speaking of this, Senior Yuezhi's eyes were already filled with tears.

After a while, Manhua asked: "Senior Yue Zhi really doesn't know if Yan Li is still alive?"

"I didn't leave any room for jumping off Mingchuan in the past. It's time to calm down after so long." Senior Yuezhi sighed deeply, and said again: "I'm old, and I can't do anything anymore. As for Lingya, I don't know how you two plan to deal with it?"

"Empress Wanxin's murder of an immortal official in the Heavenly Court should be reported according to the laws of the Heavenly Court, entered into the case book by the 'Third Instance Division', and then tried. But in the end, she cannot escape death." Ziying said.

"If Lingya still belongs to the Fengling Clan and is under the jurisdiction of the Heaven Realm, the death penalty is inevitable. But if she entered the ghost city and did not return to the clan, is there any other result?"

Zi Ying was speechless for a while, Man Hua said: "It is true that there are other consequences. Since you do not belong to the heaven, then you are not bound by the rules of heaven, and naturally you are not protected by them. If I act harshly, Senior Rizhi can take care of me."

"Mr. Manhuasan is an immortal, so don't forget to abide by the rules of all walks of life. The higher the position, the more restrictions there will be."

Man Hua couldn't help smiling, and said: "That's true, but it's a pity that I used the wrong place. There are no rules that I must abide by, only things I want to do or not."

Senior Yuezhi paused for a moment, his eyes seemed to have a strange light flashing in them, and he said tremblingly, "Yi Li, that child... said the same thing back then, with almost the same expression and the same tone."

Man Hua pursed her lips, and asked, "Senior Yuezhi, is there any spiritual consciousness under Ming Chuan that has not been exhausted?"

Senior Yuezhi shook his head and remained silent.

"If Yin Li wants to return, isn't Senior Rizhi willing to do anything for it?" Ziying couldn't help asking.

Senior Yue Zhi sighed quietly, and said: "The number of Yin Li's life is exhausted, what even the Emperor of Heaven couldn't do at the beginning, now that such a long time has passed, what can we do?"

"At the beginning, I sealed my Yuanling at the bottom of the Langsha River connected to Mingchuan. When Ziying came out of Mingchuan and caused Mingchuan's anger, I was severely injured. With my strength, I was not afraid of Mingchuan. Chuan’s wrath, but at that time the whole body’s strength was suddenly absorbed, which almost interrupted the connection between me and my spiritual consciousness. I didn’t care at the time, and I recovered after a while, and there was nothing unusual after that. After returning to Tiangong, go to Not long after I came back from Liuxianchi, I suddenly lost my mana. This time, I obviously felt that something was born by me, so I cut off the connection with the divine consciousness. This time I came to the ghost city just to find out the thing."

"If you do it harshly, what is Man Hua San Lord going to do?" Senior Yue Zhi looked at Man Hua and asked.

"Senior Yuezhi don't have to worry. If he finds the spiritual consciousness in Ming Chuan, I can help him enter the path of reincarnation and be reborn."

"However, in this way of reincarnation, whether an adult becomes a grass, a beast or a bird, or a mayfly in the world, an inconspicuous ant, I don't know how many reincarnations it will take to step by step to reincarnate as an adult, or it will never be possible... ..."

"Are you really willing to take the risk to help Yinli?" Senior Yuezhi looked at Manhua, as if he couldn't believe it, and his vigorous hands were tightly grasping the edge of the stone table.

"no sooner said than done."

Senior Yuezhi couldn't say anything for a moment, he just nodded.After calming down for a while, he asked again: "What are you planning, Lingya?"

"Speaking of love, I think it's the most tormenting thing, and it's also the most difficult to control yourself. Fortunately, Manhua is fine at the moment, what do you think?" Ziying looked at Manhua and asked.And Man Hua asked Senior Zhi: "What do you think, Senior?"

"Knowing a mistake can make a big difference. It is also a matter of heaven to admit guilt and accept punishment. I only hope that when the two report to the police, Lingya will be able to bear the responsibility for this crime as the ghost town 'Wanxin Niangniang'. There are only mortals in the five realms, and there are ghosts after death. , there are many possibilities to be reborn, even if you can only be a ghost, it is a chance. And even a god, if you die once and then disappear from the world, this can be regarded as giving her a chance."

……

When they went back, they took a dark blue bead, which seemed to be flowing with some strange liquid.

"Is it really possible to use this to gather your spiritual consciousness?" Ziying held it in the middle and threw it up and down a few times.

"If you are forced to see you playing with this bead like this, you can only ask for blessings." Man Hua sneered.

"Isn't this just a blue pearl caught in the sea, I can catch hundreds or even thousands of them for him." Even so, Ziying still put it away and stopped playing.

"You can ask him if he wants it."

"But what do you think of this, is it by design or something?"

"Senior Yue Zhi already knew that Yin Li's spiritual consciousness was hidden underground in Ming Chuan and never dissipated, or it could be said that he preserved Yin Li's spiritual consciousness."

"Is it possible? Senior Yue Zhi doesn't belong to a ghost city, and this abyss of Mingchuan is a place of death for the outside world that 'goes and never returns'."

"Who knows, maybe it's the Heavenly Emperor who begged, or maybe it's a prior arrangement. Judging from the reaction of the Japanese senior, he not only knows that Yin Li can be reborn, but also knows the way to make him reborn."

"Then Empress Wanxin was also being used?"

"She was Shi Minglu in the mortal world, she appeared in Lian Shang's second life, and then appeared in his third life with corpse gu insects, and we meet today in the ghost city. Senior Japanese rule can indeed do many things, but there are He can't do a little bit, for example, when she reincarnated in the huge mortal world, she met Lian Shang who was also reincarnated as a human, because once he entered the reincarnation, no one would know what his identity would be in the future. The most amazing thing is that he can be a human being for three generations. Even though Lingya belongs to the Fengling Clan of ancient gods and beasts, no one knows whether she can be a human being, let alone imagine that she will have such a high status in the mortal world. In fact, it is almost completely coincident, even Siming Zhenjun is unable to write down the arrangement of his fate before reincarnation or during reincarnation. This kind of thing can only be divided into what is and is not, and there is no reliable speculation."

"Since no one can decide what happened, is it a coincidence?"

Manhua didn't answer, obviously not sure yet.

"Since this incident is a coincidence, it can't be regarded as targeting you as a whole."

"Senior Yuezhi really doesn't know who will be able to accomplish this."

Ziying breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Then I'll go to Mingchuan when I'm ready."

Manhua nodded, "Remember not to go down to the abyss of Mingchuan, just use beads to lure out its consciousness." Zi Ying said with a smile: "I am also the king of ghosts who came out of Mingchuan, so I know that the abyss eats gods. Consciousness does not spit out the bones."

Man Hua asked again: "Aren't you afraid that you really came back with a strong force, this ghost town can't tolerate two masters."

"Yingli leads the ghost city to stand up, and I lead it to become rich, so don't conflict. Besides, I didn't move the ghost city much, and I will just return it to him. I will stay in my city that never sleeps. Hehe, maybe he will return to the city by then." I like my city that never sleeps even more." Zi Ying folded her arms around her chest, with a proud look on her face.

Man Hua patted Ziying on the shoulder, and praised him: "It's true that he has lost the rascal spirit he used to have."

"There are still some. After all, I am a serious businessman now. I only care about profit, and I can only eat if I have a thick skin."

Manhua smiled subduedly, and said in a low voice: "In that case, help me get some gems from the Demon Realm, the high-quality ones."

"This...it can be done..."

"What? Still hesitating?"

"No, no, how dare you." Ziying smiled and waved her hands...
