The barriers of heaven and earth are covered by dense crowds of dead souls, as if they are puppets one after another, hanging in this barrier.
Chen Changsheng looked at the dead souls above his head. He moved closer and observed each of the dead souls. They all looked different and were no different from the dead souls in the outside world.
But why are these dead souls like wood?
Chen Changsheng frowned and looked around, only to see a dead soul in the distance suddenly sinking.
Yu Jian caught up with him inside.
He followed the dead soul down to the human world, until he came to a hut in the mountain forest.
"Quick, quick, quick! Harder! Harder!"
The man outside the house was waiting anxiously, and pitiful shouts were heard from time to time inside the house.
And when the dead soul fell into the hut, a baby's cry rang out.
"Wow……"
"It's happening, it's happening!"
Chen Changsheng stared at this scene blankly, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
When Wen Po in the hut took the child out, the man outside the house finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Changsheng looked intently, and as he expected, this child was the afterlife of the dead soul.
He raised his head and looked at this world.
"With such imperfect rules of heaven and earth, there is actually reincarnation..."
Chen Changsheng fell silent.
The reincarnation we just saw seemed to be a section cut out, simplifying everything in between.
But just because something is missing, this reincarnation makes people feel weird.
It is as if all the people in this world are trapped by the way of heaven.
Chen Changsheng paused suddenly and murmured: "Perhaps, they were originally kept in captivity..."
He couldn't be clearer about the origin of this world.
This spiritual cage was also built by Yuxuan in order to complete the Purana Sutra. The final fate of the creatures in this world was also determined the moment the spiritual cage was built.
Chen Changsheng left here. He walked around the world, trying to find the figure of a cultivator.
And along the way, he kept seeing dead souls rising into the sky, and souls falling into the human world again.
Things like this happen every day, and life and death seem to be in the hands of others.
Chen Changsheng was thinking, but suddenly he lowered his head and looked over.
I saw tens of thousands of people gathered here below, carrying huge stones, as if building a building similar to an altar.
Among the crowd, Chen Changsheng seemed to see a golden light.
He immediately fell down and left looking for the golden light.
The building that was tens of feet high impressed Chen Changsheng's eyes. Although it was only just built, it had already taken shape.
"Ding-rang, ding-rang..."
There was a sound of dragging iron ropes, and those who were carrying the stones had their legs bare, and they were even half-clothed. Without exception, they were extremely skinny, and they used their last strength to carry the stones.
They had no choice, and they couldn't even rest. The whip would leave a bloody mark on their body. If the skin was broken without medicine, it would be impossible to survive in such a world.
Chen Changsheng's eyes followed the gap between these young men and saw a child.
Only then did he see clearly what that golden light was.
"It's actually Buddha's light..."
Chen Changsheng paused for a moment. Buddhist monks disappeared from the world many years ago. He never expected to see a ray of Buddha's light in this world.
But where did this Buddha come from?
The child was wearing tatters. He held two stones in his hands and walked forward with difficulty.
The soles of his feet were covered with calluses, as was the cleft of his hands.
Chen Changsheng did not step forward, but found a place to sit and look at the boy.
Most of the people who came here at such a young age have no names, and the same goes for boys. He has never seen his parents since he was a child, and he grew up eating a lot of food. When the elders in the village saw that he was lonely, they gave him the name Gou'er.
They all say that having a bad name makes a living and prevents one from dying too early.
Later, a flood destroyed the village, and those who survived became refugees. They were later captured and worked here as laborers.
Dogs can endure hardships, and they quickly adapted to it after coming here. They can eat one piece of dry biscuit a day. Although they are not full, they are not starving to death, but they look a little thinner.
It was time for Higurashi to leave work.
The dog shed all his fatigue and staggered to get his meal for the day.
He hid the dry biscuit, and then secretly found a place where no one was.
The dog squatted under the tree and looked around. Then he dared to take out the dry biscuit and stuff it into his mouth regardless of whether there was any dust on it.
"Aren't you afraid of choking if you eat so quickly?"
Suddenly a voice came from behind.
The dog was startled and hurriedly hid to the side.
The first thing he did was not look at who was speaking, but forcefully stuff the dry biscuit into his mouth.
"Well……"
Without water, the dry biscuits stuck in the throat, which made the dog particularly uncomfortable, and the air could not flow smoothly.
Chen Changsheng wanted to step forward and help him.
But the dog quickly dodged and ran to the side as if he was trying to swallow the dry biscuit with all his strength.
The dog swallowed the dry biscuit and let out a long breath.
He quickly said: "I have swallowed it!"
When he finished speaking, he saw the particularly cleanly dressed man in front of him.
Gou'er was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he was thinking too much.
Chen Changsheng looked at him and said, "Are there many people grabbing food here?"
The dog was a little afraid of the well-dressed man in front of him, as if he was afraid that the other person would suddenly pull out a whip from behind.
His throat was dry, and he coughed twice. After swallowing twice, he asked, "I don't know...who is it?"
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "I am not the adult you call me, so you don't have to be afraid. Come and sit."
The dog hesitated for a moment, but still walked forward and sat down next to the man, but even so, he was still far away.
Chen Changsheng didn't care, but asked: "Are you thirsty?"
"..."
The dog didn't know how to answer, so he just remained silent.
Chen Changsheng thought for a while, took out the wine gourd, shook it and said to him, "Open your mouth."
"Huh? Huh?"
The dog panicked, and he opened his mouth slightly not knowing what the other party meant, but he knew that this must be an adult who could not be offended.
Chen Changsheng raised the wine gourd and poured two sips into his mouth, but what came out was not wine, but water. Such a small magical power couldn't be easier.
The dog immediately became more energetic after drinking this water.
Chen Changsheng asked: "Is it enough?"
The dog wiped his mouth and said, "That's enough, that's enough. Thank you for the reward."
Chen Changsheng wanted to refute, but after thinking about it he decided not to, and then asked: "How old are you this year?"
The dog answered honestly: "Eleven."
Chen Changsheng picked up the wine gourd and took a sip, saying: "...You are still at the age of studying."
The dog was curious and asked: "Sir, what is reading?"
