Chapter 2691 Cai Xu

2691

"Life is a journey that starts from birth and ends with death. Some people buy short-distance tickets, some buy long-distance tickets, some stand tickets, some sit tickets, and some people buy short-distance tickets. No matter what the process is, everyone must get off the car in the end, and this car will carry others and continue to move forward until it is very far away from you, until one day you are forgotten. .”

Xu Taiping's voice echoed in his own mind.

This sound suddenly woke Xu Taiping up.

He did not open his eyes, but his consciousness recovered in an instant.

"What's wrong with me?" Xu Taiping asked in his mind.

"You're dead." His voice rang again. Xu Taiping was not frightened by the voice because he knew who was speaking. The only one who could speak in his mind was Xu!

"Am I dead?" Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then remembered everything that happened before he lost consciousness.

His armor shattered, his body was frozen at temperatures as low as 100 degrees below zero, and after that, he lost consciousness.

"Yes, you are dead. To be precise, your body is already in a state of death." Xu said.

"Since my body is in a state of death, why am I still conscious now?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Because of me." Xu said, "I am connected with you. If I am alive, you are not dead. I used my power to protect your brain, so you are still conscious. Speaking of which, you should be grateful If that person named Liu Hao hadn't desperately retrieved your body and sent it back to the space station, with my power, I would have only been able to protect you for half an hour. After half an hour, my power would have receded. , you... will completely become a corpse, and I will make your corpse my home and enter a dormant state. It may be dormant for hundreds of thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, until someone finds your corpse..."

"Liu Hao..." Xu Taiping asked, "How is he?"

"He is still alive." Xu said.

"That's good...but, Xu, what should I do now? It can't always be like this, right?" Xu Taiping asked.

"You... feel the taste of death." Xu said, "You are in a state of death now, which is a very good thing for you. This will help you understand the sixth level of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra... The sixth level of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, the state of death, is actually the ultimate level of body refining in the world of cultivation. When you practice to the state of death, your body is the body of a practitioner. Every practitioner needs to experience the state of death. In the world of spiritual practice, this is called the physical body passing through tribulations. Once one has experienced death, the practitioner's body can exist forever."

"Then am I at the sixth level of the Marrow Cleansing Meridian now?" Xu Taiping asked.

"It's not that simple to survive the calamity in the physical body... You must remember all the feelings you have now. These feelings will become the key to your future Nirvana. Overcoming the calamity in the physical body is also called Nirvana and rebirth. The past is eternal existence. Without the past, you will die. Xiao, this is a hurdle that one needs to go through to become a cultivator from an ordinary person. This hurdle has stopped countless martial arts masters and strong martial arts masters. Do you think that cultivation is that simple? Do you think that cultivation only requires meritorious service? Is the Dharma enough? Without the situation of putting oneself in danger to survive, an ordinary person would not be able to embark on the path of cultivation." Xu said.

"Do you feel anything? I feel nothing now. I feel like I am a ball of soul. My world is dark. I can only hear my own voice. I don't have any other senses..." Xu Taiping said.

"This is the feeling of death. You have to remember it all. The deeper you remember it, the better it will be for you in the future." Xu said.

"Then how long will it take for me to come back to life?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Wait until...the moment when my power is exhausted." Xu said.

The moment when the power runs out?

Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment and asked, "After your power is exhausted, will you start sleeping again?"

"I won't sleep this time." Xu said.

"Not sleeping? Why?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Would you like to hear a story...a story about me." Xu said.

Hearing this, Xu Taiping was a little stunned. What story could a bug have?

"I'm not a bug." Xu said.

"This..." Xu Taiping was a little embarrassed. Xu knew what he was thinking because Xu and he had the same thing.

"A long, long time ago, I... was actually a person." Xu said.

"Human? Then how did you become a bug?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

"That's because...I was sealed in a spiritual insect. I used to be a cultivator. My surname is Cai, and my name is Cai Xu. Once I went on a trip with my fellow disciples, and we encountered a disaster. My fellow disciples In order to survive, I was sacrificed and my body was destroyed. However, my resentment kept my spiritual consciousness. I turned into a resentful spirit and harmed everyone. Until later, I met Kun (same pronunciation as Kun). , he is a powerful practitioner, he could have killed me easily, but he felt what happened to me, and finally sealed me in the spirit insect, and then took me to travel around the world... I hope he can use this to erase Let go of my resentment... However, resentment is never so easy to erase. I have never been able to get rid of the resentment of being abandoned by my brothers. In the end, Kun left me on the earth, split it in two, and suppressed the demon scorpion..." said.

"I see... your name is Cai Xu, and you were turned into a bug... Do you have any hobbies? For example, singing, dancing, rap, etc.?" Xu Taiping asked.

"No." Xu said.

"That's a pity." Xu Taiping said.

"Don't interrupt." Xu said dissatisfied.

"Yes...you continue."

"You also know what happened later. I was split into two and reunited, and my memory was awakened... In fact, I have always wanted to take your body as my own. Although I I was sealed in the spirit worm, but... I was once split in two, and the seal was weakened a lot because of it. As long as I can break through the seal, I can break away from the spirit worm and take you away... In that case, I will become you." Xu said.

"Fuck!" Xu Taiping couldn't help but curse. Then Xu Taiping reacted and asked, "Then why have you changed your mind now?"

"Because... I saw in you and Liu Hao the courage to sacrifice one's life for righteousness... I saw the courage to sacrifice everything for your friends... I was ruthlessly abandoned before. I thought that when faced with the danger of death, everyone would It was selfish, so I became a resentful spirit. However, when I saw you gave your hope of life to Wu Xue and Liu Hao tried his best to retrieve your body from space, I was moved. All my resentments disappeared at that time, so...I made a decision." Xu said.

"What decision?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Use all my power to save your brain and your intelligence... That's why you can regain consciousness now and talk to me. Otherwise, you will be dead," Xu said.

Hearing Xu's words, Xu Taiping was speechless for a moment.

He didn't know what a resentful spirit was, let alone the weird things in the spiritual world, but he knew that it was Xu who saved him.

"You used all your power to save me, but what about you? You used to be able to sleep and recover after consuming your power. Why can't you do it now?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Because... I also gave you the fire. If I lose the fire, the final result can only be death." Xu said.

"Tinder? What is that?" Xu Taiping asked.

"That is the source of all my power... I left him in your brain, so you can retain your sanity, and he will also become your fire. Although he is extremely weak now, but... he can Arouse the potential in your body bit by bit. Your power... is only used about one-tenth now. With fire, one day, you can fully unleash your power. When the time comes... you... will Become the most powerful person in this world." Xu said.

"Then take the fire away. I will find a way to stimulate my own potential. You can't die!" Xu Taiping said.

"The fire has been imprinted in the depths of your soul. I can't get it back. I don't want to get it back. My resentment has been eliminated. I think it's time for me to leave this world and go back to reincarnation..." Xu said.

Hearing Xu's words, Xu Taiping felt a rare sense of relief for some reason.

"Remember, Xu Taiping, people cannot live in resentment. Your life is very long. Once you have resentment, you will easily become possessed. By then, not only you will be hurt, but also the people around you... This life is The journey, I have finally reached the end, I hope you will carry my fire and continue walking... Goodbye."

With this goodbye, Xu's voice gradually became blurry.

"Goodbye." Xu Taiping said.

In the blink of an eye, Xu's voice disappeared.

Xu Taiping's world returned to deathly silence.

"Fuck, I forgot to ask him how I can be resurrected!" Xu Taiping suddenly shouted. At this time, he was still in the state of physical death. Xu did not say how long this state would last. Cremation is popular in China. , if your body is burned by someone by then, wouldn’t it be the end of you?

At this moment, Xu Taiping suddenly heard a faint voice.

The sound grew louder and louder in Xu Taiping's mind. Finally, Xu Taiping heard it clearly. It was the sound of a car engine.

Xu Taiping opened his eyes suddenly.

It was pitch black.

The smell of wood penetrated Xu Taiping's nose.

Xu Taiping's vision recovered quickly.

He clearly saw that in front of him was a wooden board.

Xu Taiping raised his hand, pressed it on the wooden board, and then pushed hard.

With a snap, the board was pushed away, and then Xu Taiping sat up.
