Chapter 39 The Ascetic
War is always cruel, but for people like Chen Xu and Qin Shihuang, one advantage of war is the endless corpses and souls.
Because of death, the soul of the deceased will linger near the corpse for about seven days, which is called the first seven.
Many people think that the first seven refers to the soul returning on the seventh day after death, which is actually not the same.
The soul is fragile, and it is easy for the soul to dissipate by wind and rain, and the dazzling sunshine is even more a disaster for the soul.
For the soul, for the souls of those who have just died, their own corpses are their shelter for the wind and rain. The corpses who have just died also carry yang energy, can block the wind and rain and the sunshine.
When seven days passed, the remaining yang energy in the corpse disappeared and the soul was no longer protected. Either the soul was scattered and turned into the most essential imprint, which is the so-called unconsciousness, gradually integrating into the world and returning to the world; or an accident occurred and survived in other forms.
Don’t believe in the so-called underworld, the so-called underworld, the so-called paradise, the so-called heaven...those are all lies.
For the gods, souls are useful, but the barriers of the plane are difficult to cross. They cannot come in person for a soul when they cannot come at will.
Moreover, there are so many planes, and there are not hundreds of billions of dead creatures. Even the kingdoms of the gods cannot accommodate so many souls.
In this case, picking and choosing becomes inevitable.
In fact, in the ancient Egyptian era, only the most noble pharaohs and priests would be protected by the divine power of Anubis, the god of death, and traveled to the distant underworld after death. Of course, some people who have made outstanding contributions are exceptions. Anyone who has caused great influence is the favorite of the gods.
Only in the age when the gods were sacred, will the souls of human beings be protected by the gods and go to their kingdom after death. However, for human beings, they were just playthings of the gods in that era.
Coming from the Age of the Gods and coming to the Age of the Human beings, mankind has become the protagonist of the world, truly mastering his own destiny, but what he has given up is the protection of the soul. No one can explain clearly the efforts and gains in it.
When Chen Xu was too lazy to count the body placed in front of Qin Shihuang, Chen Xu could no longer see through him.
In the past, Qin Shihuang gave him the feeling that he was tall and majestic, but now, there is a hint of mystery and a hint of fear.
Yes, fear. He was able to chat and laugh with Qin Shihuang in the past, but when he discussed the truth, he actually felt fear when facing Qin Shihuang. Even if he had faced Anubis, he was just humble, not fear. Although Anubis was just a projection at that time, no, he could not even be a projection. At most, it was the divine power he burned in the rules.
The plane operates by rules, and the divine power of the gods is burned in the rules to leave its own traces and interfere with the plane operation - a sacred chapter.
"Anyone who only meets the expected conditions can induce divine power burned in the rules, and divine power is immortal and almost eternal."
It is obvious that after experiencing hundreds of thousands of sacrifices, Qin Shihuang had begun to deify and transform from man to god.
"You are guilty." said a white man who was brought to Chen Xu by the Terracotta Warriors and Horses.
This is a standard white man, with a high nose bridge, blue eyes, and a head of blonde hair, but at this time he looked a little embarrassed and his body was covered in dust.
The reason why he can appear here is because Suleiman's clone is useless.
The Terracotta Warriors and Horses killed everywhere, killing soldiers, killing foreigners, killing whip pigs, and killing rebels. Many corpses could not be transported here in time, so Qin Shihuang needed someone to hold a sacrificial ceremony on site to worship Qin Shihuang.
Suleiman had only one, and he could not clone his body, so he needed other people to sacrifice. Western missionaries, Eastern Taoist priests and monks became spare tires.
"But the Lord will forgive you." The white man said, "As long as you believe in the Lord, the Lord will forgive you for your fault."
"Are you a missionary?" Chen Xu asked.
"I am a monk." The monk replied.
"Same." Chen Xu said disdainfully: "I have seen many people like you, but they all have no faith in your Lord."
Now there are missionaries in Qin Shihuang's sacrificial groups, and there are not many.
"Wrong, I am not a missionary, but a monk." The monk tried to explain: "We follow the will of the Lord to educate the world, not to plunder."
"Oh? Can you talk about you?" Chen Xu became interested.
Seeing Chen Xu interested, the ascetic monk also said, "We live in the Romanian monastery..."
Chen Xu understood that these ascetic monks were the devout believers of a group of Lords. They were different from other missionaries. They had gentle means and often helped others, just like the spring breeze and drizzle, which inadvertently influenced the believers.
And they themselves live a very poor life. In fact, they are not without money, but because of their philosophy.
They believe that physical torture can exercise their spirits, so they refuse to eat and eat extra money and take out the extra money to help those in need.
This is a concept, a lifestyle that is integrated into the bones.
"Very good, you said I am guilty, what are I guilty?" Chen Xu asked.
"Murder is a sin." The monk looked at the corpse on the ground with mercy, his eyes full of sympathy.
"But if you believe in the Lord, you can get redemption." Chen Xu said on his behalf, and then ordered a Terracotta Warrior to bring a believer of the Lord over.
A corpse lies in front of the ascetic.
"He is a believer of the Lord, but he is a mercenary. There are dozens of people who died under his gun. Do you think he will go to heaven?"
"He is sinful, but he believes in the Lord sincerely, and the Lord will give him forgiveness." said the ascetic.
"What about that." Chen Xu chanted a mantra, "In the name of Anubis, he drove the person in front of him to hell."
In fact, since Chen Xu sacrificed himself, he rarely used magic in the name of Anubis. He chose more of the magic that did not involve the name of the god. He was afraid that his blasphemy would be discovered by God.
However, to destroy a person's soul into hell, you must be supported by Anubis's power.
The hand of the dead bone stretched out from hell, grabbed the soul of the Lord's believer, and pulled him out of the corpse.
The soul screamed but couldn't make a sound. All of this was like a silent drama.
The monk was frightened and a little scared.
In fact, he was not afraid of death. He believed that this world was torture. It would be better if he died. He could go to heaven and stay with the Lord. However, he was afraid that he would not be able to go to heaven and went to hell. In that case, it was the greatest blasphemy of their beliefs.
Fear was filled with his face; retreating, causing his body to tremble, he pointed at Chen Xu, "You are the devil."
"I am not a devil, I am a priest, but a priest of Anubis, the god of death." Chen Xu held the Sun Golden Sutra in his hand, with a pious and fanatical look on his face. "It is my duty to sacrifice the soul to the great Anubis."
"Heavenly God." The face of the ascetic monk has turned into ashen.
"Anubis is the righteous god of ancient Egypt and the protector of the soul. Do you know that you are blaspheming?" Chen Xu tried hard to make himself look like a charlatan.
"All this is heretic gods under my lord." The ascetic said fanatical: "You and your evil gods will be purified."
"Don't forgive me, and forgive me?" Chen Xu said with a bad taste: "Isn't your Lord the most merciful and kindest? Isn't your faith the most fanatical and fanatical?"
"Mercy and forgiveness are all directed at the believers of our Lord. Unless you leave the arms of the heretic gods and become my Lord believers, you can be accepted and forgiven." The ascetic said firmly.
"I can't do it if I want me to escape from the Egyptian gods and join your Lord's faith." Chen Xu laughed and said, "But I think that the person who goes to hell should be you, Lord Ascetic."
"I believe that your faith will make His Highness Anubis feel joy, but your faith will make His Majesty Qin Shihuang even more uncomfortable."
"It is said that God's devout believers will go to heaven after death, not to hell."
"So, let me verify the legend."
Chen Xu opened his hands, "In the name of Anubis, he drove the person in front of him to hell."
The hand claws of the dead bones grasped the soul of the monk, and he wanted to pull his soul out of his body alive.
"I won't go to hell." A white light suddenly burst out from the ascetic's body, and the white light was dazzling.
"I actually got two tricks?" Chen Xu was surprised, "I thought you were just an ordinary person, wait... No, the white light on you is not power."
Chen Xu carefully observed the white light in front of him and soon understood what this was. "It was actually a firm belief that made your soul sanctify."
Firm belief is also a kind of training for the soul itself, and it can be regarded as a kind of Tao, but the prospects for this Tao may be a little less wonderful.
The more you believe, the stronger the soul will be. When the end, after the soul is perfect, it will completely lose itself and become a servant of the gods who believe in the gods. Everything about the gods is everything about him.
As Jesus said: I did not come to peace on the earth, but to war on the earth; I did not come to you fathers who are kind and filial, but to alienate you fathers and sons; I did not come to you believers who live and work in peace, but to lose their belongings.
Why Jesus did this was simply because of faith. Faith requires weapons to expand. Faith should be above family affection, faith should be firm, and the body should suffer.
This is Jesus’ purpose. The divinized soul can achieve the Holy Spirit in the end and become an extension of Jesus’ will. He can easily gain power.
"But how could I get you to do it."
