Chapter 30 The Mark of Reincarnation
"Uncle Bai, after I became a demon, I found that there were arcs of light above the heads of pedestrians on the street, some strong and some weak..." Gao Sheng said.
"This." Xiaobai smiled and said, "It's the mark of reincarnation."
"The Seal of Reincarnation? What does it mean?" Gao Sheng asked.
"In your life, do you always find that some people are surprisingly stupid. They can't understand anything that is obviously simple. However, some people are very smart, learn from one example and have a quick mind." Xiaobai said: "For example, two teenagers walked out of a remote village and entered a metropolis together. One of them saw the brightly lit street scene and would develop ambitions and must have a place in the metropolis in the future. The other one saw the red man and green woman wearing fashionable clothes and looked at their ragged clothes. He felt very inferior and his behavior would become more and more cringeful."
"Isn't this the difference between human nature?" Gao Sheng said.
"Is it just human nature?" Xiaobai smiled and said, "Human nature is also affected by many factors. You must know that everything has cause and effect. I ask you, what animal do you hate the most?"
"Rat," Gao Sheng said.
"Rat is a kind of type," said Xiaobai. "If you think about it even more, think about the animals that hunt and eat meat."
"Animals that eat meat..." Gao Sheng pondered for a moment: "I hate hyena very much, and I get annoyed when I see it."
"Don't be curious about why this is?" Xiaobai said: "People can appreciate the majesty of tigers and lions, like the agility of leopards, and even like the persistence of flat-headed brothers, but when they see hyenas, most people will feel hated."
"Because the hyena is ugly, appearance is the most important thing." Gao Sheng said.
"Ugly? Can a hyena be ugly than a bulldog? Can a sloth be ugly?" Xiaobai said: "In fact, hyenas are very powerful. A leopard may not be able to beat a hyena. They can run long distances. They are strong enough, have perseverance, and have the spirit of unity and cooperation. Why do you hate hyena?"
"Why do you think Uncle Bai?" Gao Sheng asked.
"Because countless years ago, hyenas specialize in feeding on humans, their teeth are most suitable for biting human bones, and their ability is also cultivated in humans." Xiaobai said: "The hatred and fear of hyenas has penetrated into the depths of human souls. In your words, it is engraved in the genes, so human aesthetics can appreciate tigers and lions, but they are absolutely unable to appreciate hyenas."
"But... the lion can eat people too..." Gao Sheng murmured.
"The lions only do it occasionally." Xiaobai said: "A lion group usually requires 500 to 800 kilograms of meat for a meal. If a bison is hunted, the lion group will be full. It is far from enough to kill a person."
Gao Sheng stayed for a long time and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Bai, you know so much..."
"Because I've been learning," said Xiaobai. "You hate mice because they have always been with humans. They steal human food for many years and have not made any contribution to humans. Instead, they spread diseases and harm humans. If mice are as loyal as dogs, work hard for humans, or provide a large amount of meat like pigs, otherwise they can learn the skills of cats. If they are more beautiful, they can act coquettish and clingy, you won't hate mice."
"Okay, I admit that you made sense, but... Uncle Bai even understands these things... He should know that Mr. Gu's approach is wrong, right?" Gao Sheng said: "Why didn't he remind him?"
Xiaobai was silent for a moment, and he shook his head: "I thought it was feasible at the beginning, but later when I felt something was wrong, Mr. Gu was already stuck in the horns. He lost too much and could not turn around. He tried to persuade him several times indirectly, but it was useless, and... I still couldn't bear it."
Gao Sheng felt that his pressure was much lighter. Mr. Gu might make mistakes, but Xiaobai is definitely a sensible person.
"Uncle Bai, we are on the sidelines. Didn't we talk about human nature just now?" Gao Sheng said.
"It's not biased. I'm saying so much to tell you that human nature will also be affected by the soul." Xiaobai said.
"What does it mean?" Gao Sheng said.
"Some people have been reincarnated many times. With enough precipitation, they will naturally appear very smart. Their reincarnation mark is very bright." Xiaobai said: "Some people are just qualified to enter reincarnation and must appear dumb. The light of their reincarnation mark is naturally very dim."
Gao Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly asked, "Why is there no light on my head?"
"You have become a demon, jumped out of the three realms, and are not in the five elements, so you will naturally have no mark of reincarnation." Xiaobai said.
"Ji Gang and that old monk Jueming..."
"They are similar to you, but they are temporary. Reincarnation is their starting point and their end point, and you can never go back." Xiaobai said.
"Is there a big difference between whether there is a mark of reincarnation?" Gao Sheng said.
"If you leave the cycle of reincarnation, you will not be reborn even if you do not die." Xiaobai said.
"Immortality?" Is "Immortality?" Is "Immortality"? Gao Sheng felt ecstatic. From ancient times to the present, so many big people have been desperately pursuing immortality. He obtained it so easily. Then he felt a hint of suspicion: "Uncle Bai, I understand if Immortality is not dead, I will not be born... What does it mean?"
"You have no reincarnation anymore." Xiaobai said: "If you are killed by external forces, you are really dead and completely destroyed."
"This..." Gao Sheng only felt a bucket of cold water pouring down, extinguishing the ecstasy just now: "Where are people with the mark of reincarnation killed?"
"You will naturally enter the cycle of reincarnation again." Xiaobai said: "You are a kind of cultivation, and every creature in the world is also practicing, or evolving. The passage of time will more or less leave a sediment and integrate into their mark of reincarnation."
"Ji Gang and that old monk Jueming are the same as me? If I don't complete the contract, they will continue to live?" Gao Sheng said.
"Yes." Xiaobai nodded and said, "So Mr. Gu will decline to this state."
"What do you mean?" Gao Sheng asked.
"They should have died, but Mr. Gu pushed them out of the cycle of reincarnation." Xiaobai said: "Every day they live, they consume Mr. Gu's power."
"I..." Gao Sheng pointed at his nose blankly.
"You and I are not." Xiaobai said: "We rely on Zhentian Mansion."
"How many unfinished contracts does Mr. Gu still have?" Gao Sheng asked again.
"I've gone too much..." Xiaobai sighed long.
Gao Sheng could not describe his mood in words. Many unfinished contracts were like a blood vessel inserted into Mr. Gu’s body, constantly extracting Mr. Gu’s blood. What a huge burden...
"Without the mark of reincarnation, is it lucky or unfortunate..." Gao Sheng murmured.
