Chapter 511: The Pursuit of Immortality
"Master Xuanqing, what on earth is going on?"
Xuan Qing closed his eyes and was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke:
"Well! How should I put it? There are so many things involved that I don't know how to tell you.
This thing, according to my master's records, is called: weird, also called ghost!"
As soon as these words came out, Captain Liu frowned and said, "Weird, ghost?"
Xuan Qing nodded and said, "However, this thing is divided into many types, and I can't explain it to you clearly at the moment.
However, after a while, I can also draw for you some of the weird categories that I know of, and you can check them out from above.
As for those corpses from hundreds of years ago that you mentioned, I can probably guess what they are.
But before I say anything, I have a question, does it like to suck human blood? Of course, it also likes to suck the blood of other creatures.
Moreover, it is extremely contagious, and can turn it into a monster as big as him?"
After hearing this, Captain Liu nodded heavily and said:
"Yes, yes! That's it, that's it. That's the news I got.
Those monsters that emerged from the earth just love to suck blood!"
After hearing this, Xuan Qing nodded and said directly: "That's right, this thing is most likely a zombie.
A zombie, as the name suggests, is a stiff corpse. However, this thing is different from an ordinary corpse.
They are the result of resentment gathered in their bodies, and their incomplete souls are trapped in their corpses. As time goes by, they gradually become what they are now.
It can be said that the corpses have become spirits, but they have no intelligence, only ferocity, and only know how to act on instinct, which is very scary.
As far as I know, this thing is not easy to deal with. The best way is to burn it directly. Burn it into ashes and everything will be fine.
But zombies are also divided into different types and levels. I will compile a list for you in a few days and you can take a look.
But now, let’s talk about this thing in front of us!
However, there are too many things involved in it, and some of them involve things that happened a hundred years ago, or even earlier.
If I tell you, can you guarantee that nothing will go wrong?
Or, can you guarantee that after listening to it, you won't be silenced or something like that? "
As soon as these words came out, Captain Liu's expression changed slightly and he said:
"Master Xuanqing, is this matter of great importance?"
Xuan Qing: "Big, very big, so big that you can't believe it, even death!!!"
However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside.
"Since Lao Liu can't hear it, then what about me? We should be able to hear it, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a man walked in, followed closely by a young man who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old.
As soon as the young man came in, Xuan Qing frowned because he felt something familiar from the young man.
"It's strange..."
At this moment, Captain Liu stood up instantly, saluted respectfully, and said:
"Greetings, Master Sizhu!"
But when he saw the young man behind the Lord, his eyes widened with disbelief, and he was about to salute, but he saw the young man shaking his head secretly.
Seeing this, Captain Liu immediately understood that the prince did not want to reveal his identity.
Then, he clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, sir!"
Upon hearing this, the prince nodded slightly and said, "Okay, Captain Liu, you can leave first!"
"Yes, my lord!"
.......................................
At this time, Xuan Qing also stood up and looked at the two of them. After a long time, he bowed respectfully and said:
"Little Dao Xuanqing, nice to meet you two lay Buddhists!"
After An Yunnan heard this, he burst into laughter, helped him up, and said:
"Haha, young Taoist priest, there's no need to be so polite. I'm An Yunnan, the head of the Evil Suppression Division, and this is one of my disciples.
The reason you came with me this time is because of what you said before, Taoist Priest, about knowing about evil spirits.
Please tell me the truth about this matter, our court will definitely give you enough compensation!"
Hearing this, Xuan Qing looked at the two of them, then nodded slightly and said:
"Since you all said so, I will tell you about it. However, whether you believe it or not is none of my business.
After all, I only read these things in books, and I don’t know whether they are true or not, but they should not be wrong.”
Hearing this, the two looked at each other and said:
"Please tell me more!"
Xuan Qing nodded and said, "Do you think immortality is real or not?"
As soon as these words came out, both of them frowned and said:
"Of course this is false. If it weren't true, the seven nations wouldn't have perished a hundred years ago."
After hearing this, Xuan Qing sighed and said:
"True or false, are you sure? There is a saying that goes, there is no smoke without fire, since the legend of immortality appeared a hundred years ago.
Even the kings of the seven countries became addicted to it.
Do you think this is okay? Those seven people are still the rulers of a country. Let’s not talk about their stupidity. Do you think they really have no brains?
If there really is no man, it is impossible to sit in this position.
Well, to be able to sit in this position, they must have something extraordinary about them; at the very least, they are not stupid, and can even distinguish right from wrong to a certain extent.
So, if they hadn’t seen something very accurate, they wouldn’t have strongly supported the idea of immortality.”
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two people changed instantly.
"You mean to say that there is really such a thing as immortality?"
Xuan Qing shook his head and said directly: "There is no such thing as true immortality, it's just living a little longer.
Do you know how many years our world has existed? In the era before the Seven Kingdoms, it was about five hundred years ago.
The dynasty of more than 500 years ago lasted about 800 years.
In other words, the total time from now on is about 1,300 years.
Before this, were there people who could live forever? Are you sure there weren't any?
And what about my Taoism, Xuanmen, and all kinds of unconventional arts? Don’t you find them strange?
Why is it so strange? How did it come down and how was it created?
Back then, why did they insist on studying immortality? What was involved? Have you ever thought about it?"
Hearing this, the two of them changed their expressions and looked at Xuan Qing and said:
"What do you know?"
Xuan Qing sighed and said:
“To be honest, after seeing all the stuff I saw before, I initially thought it was just made up and nonsense.
However, after I saw these strange things appearing everywhere, I realized that what was recorded there was most likely true.
And a hundred years ago, those people who were madly pursuing immortality also understood it.
Rather than pursuing immortality, it would be better to say that they are pursuing this era!"
When the two heard this, their pupils shrank violently:
"this era?"
Xuan Qing: "Don't you think it's strange that those people suddenly broke into the house, and the royal family actually cooperated with them at that time.
Why didn’t they appear two hundred years ago, or three hundred years ago, but suddenly appeared more than a hundred years ago?”
"Master, please stop playing dumb!"
