Chapter 9 Ascension
After a night of running away, everyone was exhausted physically and mentally. Except for the samurai who was assigned to be on duty, everyone fell into a deep sleep.
Ikoma sat next to Char, lowered his head and hesitated for a while, then said: "Master Char, do you want to know how I became like this? I can tell you."
"Tell me about it!" Xia Ya said lightly.
Then Ikoma told the process of how he became Kabaneri, as well as his own research information.
Finally, Xia Ya shook his head, "Do you feel that your blood is flowing to the brain now? If you completely inhibit the flow of blood to the brain, then why are you still alive?"
In Xia Ya's opinion, the most ridiculous thing is this setting.
You can avoid turning into Kabane by strangling your neck and preventing blood from flowing to the brain. After success, Ikoma still needs to breathe and eat. If there is no blood supply to the brain, he will be brain-dead long ago.
Moreover, strangling the neck cannot completely stop the blood supply to the brain. The human body also has many capillaries, and it is not just the aorta. At most, it can only delay the virus from entering the brain along the blood.
Therefore, if you want to become Kabaneri, it is absolutely impossible to just stop the blood flow to the brain.
Because the brain needs energy to think and control the body. Without blood supply, where does the energy come from? In the air?
If that was really the case, he could only say that the people in this world were different from ordinary people, or that they were not human at all.
Of course, it is normal that extraordinary power cannot be explained by science.
"I...I don't understand!" Ikoma said that he didn't understand at all.
Xia Ya explained it briefly, and then said: "This method of yours is very risky and cannot be told. Otherwise, if someone believes it and takes the initiative to let Kabane bite him, and it fails in the end, it will kill a person."
"Unless someone is bitten by Kabane, we can only use this method to save people as a last resort. We must not take the initiative to infect people. Human life is more important than anything else. Do you understand?"
Ikoma nodded in understanding, but he respected Char's idea of respecting life even more.
Looking at Xia Ya again, he had already squinted his eyes and started to rest.
Next to her, Wuming was already asleep in the corner. The wide cloak completely wrapped her up, and nothing could be seen. She looked like a small dumpling.
She didn't want to tell Char about her own affairs, and she didn't want to tell him how she became Kabaneri. This was her secret.
After a long time, when the sun moved to the center of the sky, Xia Ya was suddenly woken up by a burst of movement.
"What's going on?" He walked to the place where the voice came from.
"Sir, some old people want to stop and pay homage to their relatives, and they feel that those two people should not be allowed to stay on the Iron Castle." A samurai walked in and whispered what happened here.
In front, Calamus was facing several old people sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking a little at a loss and not knowing what to do.
"If we continue to stay away, our prayers will not reach them." An old man with missing teeth asked loudly, "Do you want our relatives to become lonely ghosts?"
Xia Ya looked at it for a moment, with a flash of thought in his eyes, and strode out, his shoes making a thumping sound on the armored city, successfully attracting their attention.
"Whether we become a lonely ghost or a wandering ghost, what is the use of mortal prayers?"
He said lightly, with an inexplicable color on his face, as proud as a god standing on the top of a mountain looking down at the world.
"Asshole, what did you say?" A group of people were furious and wanted to fight him angrily, but when they saw it was Char, they stopped and just glared at him.
"Whether a person's soul can rest in peace depends on whether he has noble qualities, kindness, bravery, protection, compassion, dedication, integrity, and honesty."
Xia Ya's eyes swept over them lightly, "As long as your relatives have more good people than bad people, they will be liberated and will not become lonely ghosts. Therefore, mortals' memorials and prayers are optional.
It’s just a mortal’s self-comfort.”
"Nonsense." The old people were furious. "Without the prayers of their relatives, how could their souls be freed?"
"Ha! Have you ever talked about the soul with your own eyes?" Xia Ya said lightly: "People should do good deeds, because good deeds will make people's souls light and ascend to heaven, while evil deeds will make their souls dirty and stay there.
On the earth.”
"Nonsense, nonsense." Some of them yelled angrily, while others cursed angrily.
Xia Ya walked to Calamus calmly and turned a deaf ear to their words.
"Lord Iris, how was your rest?"
"Mr. Xia Ya, are you telling the truth?" Chang Pu whispered, his eyes flashing with anticipation and uneasiness.
"Don't worry, your father is the owner of Xianjin Yilao, and he at least has the qualities to protect human beings."
But Chang Pu couldn't rest assured, because she felt that her father's last behavior was not like protecting, he just wanted to run away, leaving everyone in Xianjin Yiliao behind, and fled from Xianjin Yiliao.
Seeing her hesitation, Xia Ya continued: "I have seen many excellent qualities from Master Chang Pu. Even if Mr. Sifangchuan stays on earth, you can definitely take him into the kingdom of heaven with you."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. I am light and I won't lie. Trust me." Xia Ya showed a warm smile.
Chang Pu believed it, how could such a sunny smile deceive others.
The warriors also believed it, because according to those qualities, they had protection and bravery, and they had not done any bad things, so their souls could be liberated.
Char's smile became even brighter. Superstition? No, no, no, this immortal Kabane has come out. How can it be superstition about the soul?
Moreover, he is urging everyone to do good deeds and lead people to be kind. In the previous world, he would have won the Nobel Peace Prize.
But some people believe it, and some people don't believe it. For example, those old people stubbornly believe that only the prayers of their loved ones are the best way to free themselves.
He also asked them to stop the Iron Castle immediately and let them hold a prayer ceremony to save the souls of the dead.
Suddenly, Xia Ya saw someone coming out of the car in front, and then rushed towards the car behind.
"Nameless, stop!"
After seeing clearly that it was Wuming, he immediately stopped.
But Wuming ignored him and rushed directly to the car behind him.
Xia Ya didn't think much and hurriedly chased after him.
The old people looked at each other and thought this was an opportunity.
"Kabane must have gone crazy. I said we must not leave them in the car."
"That's right, they must be kicked out of the car immediately. And that Char, he must not be a normal person either."
Other old people agreed and threatened to drive them all out of the car.
