Drawing cards can't save the weird world

Zhulerui is a city in the underworld, which was established about two or three hundred years ago.

The reason why the time is blurred is because the time in the underworld is already blurred, and the time without the cycle of the sun and the moon will go in a blur.

In Netherland, the style of a city or gathering place depends on the existence of the established city, or on the age of its establishment.

It is impossible to test who created Zhu Lerui, because when it was established, it was only a small gathering point during the chaotic period when the order of the underworld collapsed. The creator estimated that his strength was only average. After two or three hundred years, he has no up.

The ruler of this city has gone through several generations.

Although in Netherland, time seems to flow slowly, everything is so slow and long, but the only thing that is not slow is the change of regime.

After all, as long as there are "people", there are rivers and lakes. Well, it's not about fighting and killing, it's the way of the world~

The city of Juleri is now sophisticated enough to be a parliamentary system.

It seems to be a council of five people, five bronze-level dead souls.

This is a city rich in "jewels". The name of the city also means jewels. If it is free translated, it should be called Baozhu City.

Although Netherland is barren and barren, it also has its own unique specialties. Those dead souls also have needs and consumption in Netherland, and they have to carry out more "daily" production activities.

It would be more appropriate to think of this place as a strange and different world.

Like the dead souls in the city, except for the lowest beings who are struggling with life and death every day, most of the dead souls have to work to support themselves.

The jewelers in Juleri City are very famous, because they are relatively close to the tributary of the Styx River, and they have a special "salvage" technique, salvaging some special ores and jewelry from the Styx River for processing.

This thing is not a luxury, but a real consumable, and it is a collection of spiritual energy.

In fact, in the watch world, jewelry is not only a luxury item, but the consumption of jewelry in the outside world is not small.

The reason why the watch world regards jewelry as high-end luxury goods is because of this influence.

Most of the above information was told by Dante to the five people. Dante is an old undead who came to Netherland five or six hundred years ago. So there are so many things to know about this world.

To be the first to meet Dante in Netherland, it can only be said that Ciro has made a great contribution.

That's right, dead souls also have to work to support themselves in Netherland, because dead souls will also "die" in Netherland!

The souls of the dead need continuous consumption of spiritual energy to maintain their own existence, but the souls of the dead cannot produce spiritual energy themselves.

And if the psionic energy is not enough, one's own spirituality will be worn down by the rules of the underworld, so there are only two paths for ordinary dead souls.

The first is reincarnation, but in the Western underworld, this method is very difficult.

Because they haven't established an effective reincarnation system...

Zhao Hao learned a lot of information about Netherland from Uncle Tie before, because Uncle Tie is a serious Taoist priest who received the scriptures. Be a bad one among them.

Specifically speaking, it is the underworld system in the east. Of course, some factions have different relationships at the upper levels, and some of them work under the command of Lord Taishan.

This is the way of the Shangqing faction...

Zhao Hao knew that after death, the soul would go to the Netherland, and after a cycle in the Netherland, the soul would be reincarnated as a human being, and the spirituality would return to the Sea of ​​Psionic Energy.

The sea of ​​psychic energy did not exist in this world at the beginning, it was the spiritual gathering of intelligent creatures for countless years.

Of course, although the soul is the essence of a person, our consciousness is born on the basis of spirituality. And the spirituality returns to the sea of ​​spiritual energy, so the person after reincarnation basically has nothing to do with this life.

It's like a person wearing a hat. If you change the hat, it seems that the person has not changed, but the hat is the real body!

That's why people think about cultivation, because if the spirituality is strengthened to a certain level, they can resist the assimilation of the sea of ​​spiritual energy.

At that time, not to mention leaving a clear mark in the sea of ​​spiritual energy and becoming an independent existence, there is also a high probability that Su Hui will be awakened after reincarnation and come back again.

It is equivalent to rebirth!

Of course, it's hard. Because the soul will give birth to a new spirituality after reincarnation. If the spirituality of the past life cannot be awakened in time, the awakening may not be complete.

The obsession in the womb is very powerful. Generally, it is not a last resort. Who would want to gamble their lives?

It is already very difficult in the East, but it is even more difficult in the West. Because for ordinary people, let alone gambling their lives, they don't even have the chance of reincarnation!

What is the evil spirit and lost beast that Zhao Hao and the others encountered before? That is the product of the dead soul's second death!

Revenants need to consume spiritual energy to maintain themselves, just like people need to eat. People will starve to death if they have no food, and souls will also "starve to death" if they have no spiritual power.

The revenant also dies if it cannot be reincarnated before its spirituality is exhausted. And if the dead soul dies again, it will become a ghost!

The Bewildered Beast is just one type of Ghast Soul, and because of their differences, Ghast Souls are divided into many types. Ignorance and no perception, only the nature of evil.

The Eastern saying goes that "ghosts are dead and bewitched (jian four times), and ghosts are afraid of seeing them".

Originally, in the era when the gods existed, this was not a problem, because there were various gods to alienate them.

Even if the gods in the West didn't build a reincarnation system, they still have ways to deal with those excess souls, which of course is definitely not a good thing for souls. But at least a sustainable balanced system.

But the period of psychic silence has come. This is a catastrophe that has caused a devastating blow to the extraordinary system of the entire world, and it is even more catastrophic to all the gods. The twilight of the gods, the age of the end of the Dharma, the apocalypse... that's what they are talking about.

The gods fled and went their separate ways. This underworld is completely out of control.

This is also the reason why a large number of gathering places and cities spontaneously appeared in the chaotic Netherland in the middle and late stages of the psionic quiet period.

Because of need!

When those dead souls were in chaos in the underworld, they couldn't obtain spiritual energy stably at all, and they would soon turn into ghosts.

The entire Netherland is full of dead souls and ghasts, basically there is no safe place.

Therefore, it is not only driven by individual ambitions, but also the objective needs of the group.

Personal struggle also depends on the course of history~

...

When Dante introduced the ghost, Sam was not calm.

"Wait, Mr. Dante, didn't you say that good people go to heaven and wicked people go to hell? Are all the people in the underworld evil?!"

Old Man Dante smiled, and tapped his cane lightly, as if he was recalling something.

"Whether one can go to heaven or not is not determined by good or evil. Although evil people certainly cannot go to heaven, it is not the case that good people can go to heaven...but wicked people have the opportunity to enter hell, as long as you want!"

"What do you mean?" Sam was confused.

He is not considered a devout Christian, but he has been exposed to it since he was a child. You must know that the Ami people say "Oh my God" on their lips.

Now you, a good person, can't go to heaven, but a wicked person can go to hell, which confused Sam. Are we talking about the same thing?

Dante lowered his head and smiled: "You have to know that most people will come to Netherland after death. No matter good or evil! Even if you were a good person in life, you will come here after death. Of course, if you have done something for the Holy See Great contributions, even high-end priests and priests, or high-level supernatural beings, maybe they can really be led to heaven when they die!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand again: "When I died, due to spiritual power, the gate of heaven was rarely opened. I guess it was too much consumption...Even the pope didn't know if he had a chance to go to heaven. Well. I heard that it got worse later on, I guess unless they are people who are particularly important to heaven, they will not be able to go up!"

"However, in the past few years, I heard that it has begun to improve, and even the psionic power of Netherland has become more abundant."

All five were silent, because Dante's words were too informative.

According to him, whether you can go to heaven or not depends on your role in heaven. Not whether you are doing good deeds!

This really subverts everyone's ideas!

Sam's lips quivered, wanting to refute but didn't know what to say.

But Dante waved his hand: "Don't doubt, after all, I was the one who was invited to go to heaven!"

"Ah? Then you, then you..."

"Why am I here?"

Sam nods.

"Because of me, I refused!"

Sam was stunned again, "Why, why? Isn't heaven bad?"

Dante said with a smile: "Of course heaven is good, there is no danger, seemingly infinite spiritual power, abundance and happiness... But ah, when you get there, you will soon not be you."

Just like the sea of ​​psionic energy, heaven can assimilate souls.

Those assimilated souls are called petitioners, who lose their own spirituality, or that their spirituality is completely distorted and assimilated, and become part of heaven, and some of them will also transform their souls into angels!

"Where do you think the nearly infinite light and psionic energy in heaven came from? Is it produced out of thin air? This does not conform to the conservation of energy!"

Zhao Hao was taken aback: "You also know about the conservation of energy?"

An old ghost who is five or six hundred years old actually told me that energy is conserved, am I opening it in the wrong way?

However, Dante is very calm, what is energy conservation? He knows a lot!

Six hundred years of life in the Underworld had taught him too much.

According to him, he has met Socrates, Archimedes, Galileo, Darwin, Nietzsche, etc., and communicated with many of them.

Most of these people still exist in some unknown corner of Netherland.

This is the difference between Dante and the above-mentioned people and ordinary people, and those who have become ghosts.

They all have great spiritual brilliance!

The rules of Netherland can't erase their brilliant spirituality in a short time. That's why they can last forever, even longer than some powerful city lords.

And most of these great souls chose to stay in Hades instead of going to heaven. In order to maintain a sense of freedom and independence.

Existence is precious, and heaven is more expensive. If it is for the sake of freedom, both can be thrown away.

Because it's all small talk, and it's not systematic.

Zhao Hao roughly summed it up:

After death, most people will come to the underworld, except for those who are really awesome and have "organizations" to take them in.

As for any good person going to heaven, that's all nonsense. Whether you can go to heaven depends on whether you are useful to heaven.

Of course, there are only two ways to go to heaven, becoming a "psychic power generator" petitioner, or becoming an angel. Both will be assimilated by heaven and lose their free and independent will.

And the souls of the dead after death also need to consume spiritual energy to maintain their existence in the underworld, otherwise the spirituality will be worn out and they will die again and become ghosts. This thing is vicious, it only has a primitive nature, and it will never do good things, so it is called a ghost.

At the beginning of the quiet period of psionic energy, the gods died out, and the order of the underworld collapsed, and finally formed the current situation of large and small city-states. Those dead souls rely on part-time jobs in the city-state to obtain the psionic energy in the hands of those big bosses.

This is really no peace after death, and the blessings will follow in the next life!

And Westerners are even worse, most of them have no next life, because reincarnation is very difficult, not as convenient as in the East, so the vast majority of dead souls can only choose to work forever, and die if they stop!

But the psychic power in the hands of the boss is limited, and the people who need to work are also limited, so there are countless ghosts in the wilderness.

The saying that life is a hero, and death is a ghost is really a famous saying.

Because if you don't become a hero and a ghost hero, you can only be a leek forever.

But for those villains, there is another way out! That's hell!

According to Dante, those villains who died in the past hundred years are stronger than ordinary dead souls, but they are also limited. Except for the rare real ghosts among them, most of them can only be leeks in front of the solidified class.

But they still have a chance to gamble their lives, and that is to go to hell!

Hell and heaven are the same, they are all other worlds that are different from this world.

The difference between hell and heaven is that hell is free, absolute freedom. You can do whatever you want, as long as you are strong enough!

Therefore, those big villains who are unwilling to be let down and have nothing to do, choose to take the initiative to go to hell to fight!

Of course, for hell, these are all leeks, and they are all nourishment for hell.

Even among the ten thousand wicked people who go to hell, it is unlikely that any one will actually become a demon or a devil. This is also very difficult.

Zhao Hao listened for a long time, and finally there were only four big words in his mind: Good and evil will never be rewarded!

It turns out that what people around me have said since childhood, that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil is a lie. It is true that the world is not benevolent and treats all things as dogs! Both good and evil are concepts created by human beings, and they are indifferent to this world.

Strong and weak are the basis of self-dependence!

However, I cannot accept such a world!

Seeing the ugly faces of the five people who were silent, Dante also sighed:

"No way, I did the same thing after I knew the truth about how the world works. But what can I do? Back then I wrote "Divine Comedy", which made a great contribution to heaven. After I died, I asked the dead angel to come to pick me up, but In the end, I chose to stay in the Underworld... Then Newton studied theology all his life, but he didn’t go to heaven in the end~ Hahaha!”

He was quite happy.

While talking, Julerui City has arrived. Perhaps because of the age of its founding, this city looks like an ancient city in the middle world in the movie.

The streets are narrow and narrow, the ground is paved with uneven stones, some old stone houses stand mottled, extremely high spiers, balconies, and connecting passages in the air...

There are not many people entering and leaving the city gate, and there are still people guarding it.

There was a small group of a dozen or so dead souls watching the gate, and their psychic reactions were much stronger. And the psionic energy on those hurrying passers-by was very weak, and they walked in a hurry with fatigue and numbness.

On the road just now, Zhao Hao and the others have already passed a large area of ​​slums, all of which were built on the back of the mountain.

Without the protection of the city, these dead souls are in danger of being attacked by evil spirits at any time. But if you want to live in the city, you also need qualifications and consumption...

Zhao Hao and the others don't know the ages in the Underworld, but the Ami Mystery Bureau in the surface world is going to be a quarrel.

The bureau chief, Fatty Bai, came out and slammed the table with A Mei's people: "Didn't you say it was safe? Is it safe like that? People! Where are the five candidates!"

Soon, Colt broke in with a pile of documents with a pale face, "There is news! They seem to be... in the underworld!"

"Dead?!" Fatty Bai's voice suddenly rose, as sharp as a pig slaughtered in a rural area~

Thanks to the book friend "tail number 4018" for the 100 rewards!

The quality of writing seems to be poor these days. The biggest disadvantage of not having manuscripts saved is that there are always various errors and omissions in the temporary codewords.

I have to learn a lesson and save hundreds of thousands of words before opening the next book, so as to ensure the quality and quantity.
