Chapter 57: Various Roots
Several people were silent. After a while, the fat man blinked a little flattered, feeling a little embarrassed.
"What, why did it get involved with me?" The fat man looked at us with his eyes wide open.
Zhuge Xuan seemed to have woken up a lot. I stepped forward to help her up from the ground, and then everyone stared at Professor Chen in front of them.
Now, we don't even know whether this person is a human or a ghost, so we can only wait and see what happens.
"No." After waiting for a long time and no one answered the fat man, he became a little anxious, "I mean, girl, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Zhuge Xuan stared at Professor Chen, "Professor Chen died a long time ago, when the legend of Ming Kui first appeared. That thing has been attached to Professor Chen's body, borrowing Professor Chen's body to do things
What he wanted to do."
"Borrowing a dead body to bring back a soul?" I asked in shock.
Zhuge Xuan shook his head, "No, this is parasitism. After Ming Kui possessed Professor Chen, Professor Chen's mind no longer existed, but his body was still alive. Ming Kui is such a thing, it
It can live in the world like a normal person, but if it stays on the ground, it will eventually starve to death. Therefore, it needs to keep coming to the ancient tomb, just like us people eat and sleep.
Eat here.”
As soon as I heard this, I suddenly had some bad associations and couldn't help but ask: "What does Ming Kui eat for a living?"
Suddenly, Professor Chen, who had been staring at us coldly in front of us, no, that Mingkui, smiled and said: "I eat the heart."
The three of us froze, and subconsciously, I raised my hand to my chest.
At this time, Ming Kui slowly turned his gaze to the surroundings, "All the ancient tombs are filled with many, many things, some of which even we ourselves cannot feel. But no matter what they are, no matter who we are,
, as long as we reach a certain stage, we will become more and more like...people. Becoming a person, or becoming like a person, is what we...at least is my goal.
hehe.
So, I need to keep eating people's hearts, so that I can continue to look like a human being."
If it hadn't been because its shadow had disappeared for a while, I would have definitely felt that Professor Chen was going crazy in front of me. And even if it was true, I feel that my view of all this goes beyond the concepts of belief and disbelief.
A person who walks around the world perfectly, but in the end, he turns out not to be of the same kind as us. Is Professor Chen the only example of this?
I still want to call him Professor Chen. He turned to us quietly and continued: "However, since I became Professor Chen, I discovered that being a person is very tiring. I not only have to hide myself, but also
, I need to lie every day. Later, the eldest girl discovered me, and she could tell what kind of person I was almost at a glance.
Something. So, I started to be used by her again. What surprised me the most was that behind this person named Chen, there was such a family. Gradually, I began to find that I couldn’t bear these things, and continued
If I go down, I will either die with the eldest girl, or I will be killed by someone from the family named Chen.
So, while continuing those things, I began to look for the next target to attach myself to. Hi, but this kind of thing is not something I am willing to do. Meeting this man named Chen more than thirty years ago was already a fate.
It's so easy to find someone with the 'Nine Yin Roots'. Haha, until I met you in Yanjing."
Professor Chen set his sights on the fat man.
Later I learned that the so-called "Nine Yin Roots" is a folk saying in the southwestern region.
Because of different regions, there are many different versions of this saying. Here, I will list some of the most widely circulated words to explain to you.
Human beings are born with three souls and seven souls, and their lives have six paths. The six paths here are not the six paths of reincarnation in Buddhism, but rather, a person is born with six lives.
Everyone must have heard the saying "so and so has a hard life, and so-and-so has a bad life". In fact, looking back, it refers to these six lives, which is the "Six Lives Path"
According to this view, during infancy, most people will lose two or three life paths due to some things. As a person grows up, the remaining life paths will become stronger and more difficult to recover unless there are accidents.
damaged.
Those who have tough lives are actually because they did not lose any life path during their infancy, or in other words, they only lost one or two life paths. In this way, the person with abundant life paths will naturally be able to turn danger into danger, as long as he has a lot of life paths.
If the destiny is not broken, no matter how great the danger is, there should be no problem in surviving.
The opposite is true for people with poor fortunes. Such people often have their fates constantly damaged due to illness or accidents. Even when they grow up, they don't have the extra fortunes to avoid danger.
In this system, the three souls and seven souls are the "ten wisdoms".
The destiny path is - "Six Paths".
In addition to the "Ten Wisdoms" and the "Six Paths", people are born with "Nine Roots".
These "nine roots" are related to a person's birth date, the situation of the place of birth, the situation of the parents, etc. It is too complicated to say it completely. In short, when all the situations at the moment you were born are combined, you
The "nine roots" are now fixed.
People's "nine roots" are inevitably the same. There are nine types in total:
To the Yang root.
To the Yin root.
Yin and Yang roots.
Shang Shanggen.
The root of bitterness.
Zi Nigen.
The root of women’s evil.
Yi Linggen.
Zhonggenhui.
Among the nine roots, this "middle root wisdom" is the most special. If a person has three "middle root wisdom" among the "nine roots" of numerology, it would be very extraordinary. And if that person has seven "middle root wisdom" among the "nine roots"
"Zhonggenhui", to put it a bit exaggeratedly, that person will definitely achieve something even if he lies down all day long.
According to legend, Zhu Yuanzhang is the only person in history who has achieved seven kinds of "middle root wisdom".
But if you want all "nine roots" to be "middle root wisdom", it is simply impossible.
Let's put it this way, if a person's father is the emperor and his mother is the queen, and the emperor is seven years older than the queen, he will build a Yumen Palace twelve miles southeast of Mount Tai, and then let them build a palace in the year of Jiazi.
At a quarter of noon, Luan He, after the queen successfully conceived for one year, gave birth to a boy at a quarter of noon on the same day of the second year. If these conditions are met, the child may be able to fulfill the nine principles of wisdom.
So this is impossible.
However, although the other eight types of people with nine life roots are very rare, they still exist. Relatively speaking, the most common of them are the "Zhiyin root", "Zi Ni root" and "Wo Ni root".
.
And "Nine Yin Roots" actually means that all nine of a person's numerology roots are "Zhi Yin Roots".
Generally speaking, a person with this kind of nine roots will not live past the age of three or five. However, as long as this person lives beyond the age of twelve, then he is definitely the kind of person whose life is so hard that it is incredible.
If this person's six lives are preserved well enough, then he may not die even if the plane crashes.
However, if such a person is overcast, no matter what he does, he will encounter something of that kind of thing. Just like the double yin in the general sense, he will encounter some "ghosts", "ghosts hitting the wall", and "ghosts suppressing him".
Things like "bed" are also normal. It's just that people with "Nine Yin Roots" are more likely to provoke those things, but the difference is that generally speaking, people with "Nine Yin Roots" will not die because of these things, and if they are handled properly
, and it can also bring you a lot of benefits.
Of course, these are all folk rumors. It is unknown what is special about the "Nine Yin Roots".
"Me?" The fat man was stunned for a moment, and then he yelled: "Go to hell with the 'Nine Yin Roots'. I am full of Yang Qi. Things with the word 'Yin' have nothing to do with your grandpa. I don't have the Nine Yin Roots."
"Shen Dagen, I have a rule of thumb. Just tell me what you want to do. If the big girl is not afraid of you, I can still accept you, fat man."
After I heard this, I almost didn't laugh, and Zhuge Xuan even glared at the fat man. But this was not the time to teach the fat man to get rid of vulgar culture. After the fat man finished scolding, we looked at Professor Chen again.
