"Prajna ghost?"
Xiaoqing, who has been practicing for more than a hundred years, naturally does not know the difference between "spiritual" and "weird".
As Pei Wende said, ordinary beasts can be called "spirits" after opening their spiritual intelligence.
Stones, running water and other dead objects will be called "monsters" after they have life and intelligence.
And above these two is the so-called "demon".
But in addition to "spirits" and "weirds", there is another existence in between, which is the so-called ghosts.
Ghosts are neither evil spirits nor monsters.
Ghosts were living creatures during their lifetime. After death, they regained life for some reason and became ghosts that are different from spirits.
The most common kind of ghost is the zombie.
They were living people during their lifetime, but after death they were infected by the evil energy of the earth's veins and came back to life.
Similarly, the painting in Xiao Qing's collection was born with nine orifices. If it could develop wisdom over time, it would also fall into the category of ghost.
"You created a ghost?"
Xiao Qing has always known that Pei Wende has special magical powers that can give dead creatures spirituality.
All the magical instruments he forged naturally possess a spirituality similar to that of living creatures and can act autonomously to a certain extent.
But that level of spirituality is not enough to be called "weird".
Although those magic weapons and utensils have a spirituality that is similar to that of living creatures, when looking deeply into their essence, they are still just dead objects, not real life.
However, according to Pei Wende, the two masks floating around him turned out to be real ghosts?
After realizing this, it's no wonder Xiaoqing was so surprised.
What Pei Wende did was really beyond common sense.
"Since I don't want to carry this resentment, I naturally have to find a new carrier for this resentment."
With a slight smile on his lips, Pei Wende said proudly.
"This 'Prajna Ghost Mask' is the carrier of that resentment..."
"And the originally dead objects were attached with resentment and took on real life..."
"The 'Prajna Ghost' born in this way is absolutely correct to say that it is a ghost."
As soon as these words came out, Xiaoqing suddenly understood.
It seems that the two large and small Prajna ghost masks in front of me are actually similar to the painted skin in my hand.
It's just that compared to the painted skins, these two Prajna ghost masks are blessed with resentment, and they are almost complete ghosts.
"Using a mask to bear resentment on your behalf is indeed a good idea."
If Pei Wende directly endures this resentment, even if he has the physique of an "earth dragon", he will still be a big hidden danger for many years.
But once a mask is used to bear the resentment on his behalf, this hidden danger will naturally disappear.
Even because of the special nature of the Prajna Ghost Mask, Pei Wende was able to refine a magic weapon that was no different from the painted skin on the spot, and the original hidden danger instantly turned into a help.
"But why is this thing called 'Prajna Ghost Mask'?"
"And it looks so weird and terrifying?"
With thousands of thoughts flashing through her mind, Xiao Qing stared at the two Prajna Ghost masks that were still floating and asked.
Although Xiaoqing is a monster, so many years of life have already made her aesthetically similar to humans.
The big Prajna ghost with a ferocious face, the small Prajna ghost with a charming smile...
These two large and small Prajna ghost masks are not the aesthetics of normal people no matter from any angle.
"Prajna is a symbol of wisdom and represents the true understanding of all things and the origin of all things."
"This 'Prajna Ghost Mask' seems simple, but it is my most satisfying crystallization of wisdom so far. Why is it impossible to name it 'Prajna'?"
At this point, Pei Wende's tone paused slightly before continuing.
"As for why the mask looks like this?"
"If I said that this would be more like the 'Prajna Ghost' in my impression, would you believe it?"
Although Xiao Qing had long accepted Pei Wende's various views and logic that were beyond ordinary people's understanding, his words left Xiao Qing speechless for a while.
"Believe it, why don't you believe it?"
After a short silence, Xiao Qing could only glare at Pei Wende angrily.
"Even if you make a 'Prajna Ghost' in your own image someday, I won't think there's anything strange about it."
Hearing this, Pei Wende just scratched his bald head, pretending that he didn't understand the sarcasm in the other person's words.
The name "Prajna Ghost" was indeed the idea of Pei Wende in a flash of inspiration.
But making the carrier of resentment into a mask, as well as the ferocious and strange appearance of the two masks, was not something Pei Wende created casually.
The appearance of the large Prajna ghost mask is actually a reference to the "Prajna ghost" image in later Japanese monster legends that seems to smile but not laugh, and looks like crying but not crying.
The appearance of the Little Prajna Ghost Mask is based on the facial makeup of the Chinese Peking Opera Harlequin. It is also a character that is both sad and happy, and it is indistinguishable from laughter to laughter.
"Now that all the resentment in this temple lies on these two masks, Yongle Town can finally live up to its name."
Pei Wende changed the subject clumsily, which as expected triggered Xiao Qing to make even more venomous remarks.
"Yongle Town is indeed Yongle, but your trouble is probably coming."
"Don't forget, in order to overcome these resentments during this period, you have made a lot of noise."
Xiaoqing did not add any exaggeration on this point, she just told the facts truthfully.
"At first it was just the local dogs raised by the townspeople barking..."
"After that, some evil spirits were attracted by the resentment, crying and howling at night, and almost hurt a few children..."
"If I hadn't been watching from the side, do you think you would have been able to calmly overcome these resentments in the temple for several days?"
There was no complaint in her words. Xiaoqing's indifferent tone was like a bystander, calmly talking about what happened in the past few days.
And this is indeed the case. If it hadn't been for Xiao Qing's secret interference and guidance, some townspeople might have been unable to bear it and rushed into the Tutu Temple and forcibly drove Pei Wende away.
Even so, after realizing the weirdness of the Tutu Temple, the mayor still arranged for Mo Laosan, who had three shortcomings and five shortcomings, to visit the Tutu Temple.
People with three shortcomings and five disadvantages are not hard-hearted, but have a hard-working life.
It was almost impossible for Xiao Qing to prevent Mo Laosan from entering the Earth Temple without hurting anyone.
"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here, you can handle the rest by yourself!"
Glancing slightly in the direction of Yongle Town, Xiaoqing, who had already seen Mo Laosan, didn't say much, but transformed into a green snake and crawled to the top of the beam.
Xiao Qing hid a jar of fine wine there, and now she just took the time to soak in the jar for a while to relieve the fatigue of the past few days.
"Tsk, I went drinking again..."
Xiao Qing's little thoughts were obvious at a glance, and Pei Wende had no choice but to shake his head.
"Be careful one day you die drunk in a wine vat. I won't be too lazy to fish you out then."
