After listening to the other party's story, Xiao Yu digested these things, then took out a paper man from his arms and said, "Senior, can you recognize this thing?"
The thing in Xiao Yu's hand is naturally the paper soul. Xiao Yu has always kept this thing close to his body, but since he called out the paper soul in Bashan last time, the other party has not appeared.
While the old man was pricking the paper figurine, he turned around and glanced at the thing in Xiao Yu's hand. Then, his fingers that were flying so fast suddenly stopped.
"Is this a paper soul?"
The old man Zhizha said with some surprise, even the snow-white eyes had two black eyes at this moment.
Although the other party's eyes are there, they still look a little weird, but they are much better than before.
"Yes, it is the paper soul."
Xiao Yu nodded and reached out to touch Zhihun's forehead. Zhihun immediately stretched out and became half a meter in size. His body was black and gray, like a Dalmatian dog.
As soon as Zhihun came out, he found Xiao Yu in front of him and couldn't help but chuckle, "The Taoist Master hasn't called me out for a long time. I thought the Taoist Master had forgotten me."
Xiao Yu nodded to Zhihun, and then looked at Old Man Zhizha. At this time, Old Man Zhizha had already turned around and looked at Zhihun curiously.
"Swallowing the fur of demonic beasts, the paper soul mutates. Isn't your paper soul simple?"
Old Man Zhizha said with some surprise when he saw Zhihun.
Hearing the sound of Zhi hitting the old man, Zhi Hun suddenly turned around, then moved his body and flew back to Xiao Yu again, as if he was a little scared.
"Are you a Zhizha Taoist?" Zhihun asked, looking at the old man Zhizha.
Old Man Zhizha's apprentice looked at the paper soul on Xiao Yu's back with a look of surprise on his face. He had always thought that the paper soul could only be integrated with people, just like a ghost. He never thought that the paper soul could only be integrated with people.
It can also be kept like a pet.
The old man Zhizha smiled, and then stretched out his hand, and the paper soul flew towards him uncontrollably, and was caught in his hand.
"Old man, let me go."
Paper Soul was held by Old Man Zhizha, and his body kept twisting, trying to break away from the other party's shackles, but after twisting twice, he became docile, like a child.
Seeing that the paper soul was captured, Xiao Yu's heart tightened. If the other party took the paper soul by force, he really wouldn't have the strength to get it back.
But when he saw that there was no ripple on the old man's face, Xiao Yu was slightly relieved.
The old man Zhi Zha stared at the paper soul for a long time, and then said, "Although this paper man of yours has some abilities, he is a bit irritable after devouring the flesh and blood of monsters. You should be more careful in the future and never let him turn into a monster."
After the words fell, the paper soul was gently thrown away by the old man. The other party stretched out again, and in a flash, it became the size of a palm and got into Xiao Yu's clothes.
"Thank you, senior, for reminding me, I will pay attention to it."
Letting go of the paper soul, the old man Zhizha pondered for a moment and then said, "Being able to get the paper soul is also your chance. It means that you are of the same lineage as Zhizha, so I will teach you! I have a manuscript here, take it back and read it first.
Look, you can practice at home. If you don’t understand anything, just ask me to be your apprentice.”
The old man of paper tie handed a yellowed book to Xiao Yu, and then continued, "Making paper tie is not something that happens overnight. If you really want to learn, you have to practice more. If you want to do it in one touch, it is impossible."
”.
Xiao Yu naturally knew how many years it had taken Old Zhizha to have these skills. If he wanted to learn it in a short time, he would not be able to do it.
But this kind of words is to tell people who are new to this industry that Xiao Yu is a Taoist priest and controlling some paper figures is his specialty, so he can learn it much faster than others.
"Thank you, senior".
Xiao Yu took the book from the other person's hand with both hands. When he saw the words "Paper Bonding Technique" written on it, he knew that this was not a mortal thing.
"Okay, go ahead and come to me if you don't understand."
Passing the book to Xiao Yu, the old man started making paper knots again, turning a blind eye to Xiao Yu and the others.
"Senior, junior, I still have something to ask you." Xiao Yu clasped his fists again, regardless of whether the other party ignored him.
"you say".
The old man Zhizha didn't raise his head and just said something casually.
Xiao Yu took a long breath and his expression gradually became serious. What he wanted to ask was the only thing he wanted to do in more than ten years.
"I would like to ask senior, is there any way to resurrect someone who has been dead for many years?"
"have…".
The old man Zhizha said without any hesitation.
"Then where did the Taoist go after death? Is it the spiritual world or the underworld?"
Hearing this question, the old man's hand stopped again. The other person turned to look at Xiao Yu, and then seemed to fall into silence.
"Those who have attained the Dao will ascend to heaven, and those who have lost the Dao will enter the palace. What's the point in asking?"
After a while, the old man Zhizha said again, then looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Are you asking about your grandfather?"
Old Man Zhizha knew from Li Laodao that Xiao Yu was the head of Maoshan and the grandson of Xiao Shi, so he guessed that Xiao Yu was doing it for his grandfather.
"That's right, please let me know, senior."
Xiao Yu stood up again and said with a somewhat excited expression.
"Well, if you build a great road and ascend during the day, you can go to the immortal world, but after the Tang Dynasty, no one has become an immortal! You should know this sooner or later."
"Including those great demons, some of them have lived for more than two thousand years, but they still cannot become immortals, so the probability is too slim! Needless to say, the life span of Taoists is too short. The longest lived Taoist in the world is only two or three hundred years old.
One year of life is already the limit for a Taoist, and in the end he still has to report to the underworld."
Taoist Zhizha spoke to Xiao Yu slowly, with a bitter expression on his face.
"Isn't that Taoist cultivating Taoism in vain and never becoming an immortal in his lifetime?" Xiao Yu asked anxiously.
"Without descending the ladder to heaven, Taoists cannot ascend to heaven! They can only reincarnate and practice cultivation, waiting for the response from the fairy world."
"How to practice cultivation after reincarnation?" Xiao Yu continued to ask.
"Either be a human being or a monster."
"Senior, what you are saying is that as long as a Taoist does not become an immortal, he must go to the underworld to be reincarnated after death, either as a human being or as a demon?"
"Yes, there are few cultivators because human lifespan is too short. Many people turn to demon bodies. Their lifespans can be longer and they can wait for the destiny to come."
The old man Zhizha said with a complex expression, and then continued, "There is no other way. Even if you are reincarnated as an adult, it will only last a hundred years. If you are reincarnated as a demon, as long as the opportunity is enough, you can live for a thousand years, and maybe there is hope."
.
Hearing this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but feel something in his heart. Since his grandfather went to the underworld, why couldn't he summon his soul? Or could he be reincarnated directly after his death?
If this is the case, my grandfather has been dead for more than ten years. Based on this age, the Taoist who was reincarnated as a cultivator should be at least ten years old!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but look ecstatic. As long as he finds his grandfather's cultivation body, he can take it with him. Although he may become his disciple, he can't care so much. As long as he brings his grandfather's cultivation body into
Maoshan, with his grandfather's understanding, he will definitely do something good.
