Underworld

There is only boundless darkness here, and the transparent souls in the darkness are constantly seeping down from above and being sucked in by a hole.

Sun Wukong wanted to take a deep breath, but found that there was no breath here.

There is no hunger, no cold, no pain, no feeling here.

But Sun Wukong can feel it because he is still alive. He couldn't help but feel that something penetrated his whole body, and it wasn't cold.

The souls floating around are like jellyfish, with many colorful fireflies colliding in their transparent soft bodies.

In the depths of darkness, a huge ten thousand-legged monster is extending its tentacles into thousands of souls, grabbing those little insects and throwing them into the sea of ​​lava on one side.

"What is that?" Sun Wukong looked curiously.

"That's desire," said a voice.

Sun Wukong turned his head and saw a strange-looking ghost. It is different from those souls. The soul is transparent, but it is like a glowing human skin lantern. The light is still changing, sometimes green, sometimes red.

The little insects in the abyss screamed: "Let us go! Don't be destroyed!"

Sun Wukong suddenly felt that something was hitting him in his body!

He quickly looked down at his body, but fortunately it hadn't become transparent yet.

"So the soul who comes here must give up all desires?" Sun Wukong asked.

"Not only desire, but also memory. Without desire, there will be no worries and no more pain. Without memory, there will be no worries and no more nostalgia."

“But, wouldn’t that mean there would be nothing?”

"This way we can wash away the past and start over."

"But since life is about worries and worries, why reincarnate?"

"Why do you think they want to reincarnate? Of course it is to atone for their sins. To pay off what they owe in the previous life. Once they have paid it off, they don't have to reincarnate again."

"What crime do they have? What do they owe?"

"It is sin to be greedy, angry, and murderous. To love, hate, and be obsessed with each other is to owe each other. To live is to be a sin; to be in love is to owe each other."

"According to what you say, why not not live at all?"

"That's not right. If everyone doesn't want to live, who can the ghosts and gods rely on to worship them? Look at those chickens, dogs, pigs and sheep, which are raised in pens and then killed when they grow up. What's the point of living?" It’s meaningless. They live and die just because of human needs. So why are humans the same? Their life and death are just because of God’s needs. God wants to absorb energy from the spiritual essence of all things. If there are no living things in the world, Gods will also wither and die. Souls are seeds, and people are crops. God plants these seeds, and then lets them grow up, produce desires, fight, and love. If they suffer from desires, they will pray to gods and be willing to God becomes God because of all his offerings. If there are no people, what superiority does God have? It is precisely because it is so painful to be a human that God is admired by people. It is precisely because of man's humbleness that God is high. Just like in the eyes of chickens and dogs , humans are also gods and can also control their destiny."

"So... in fact, if there are no people, God will no longer exist. If all the creatures in the world are happy and worry-free, there will be no one to worship and beg the gods. Therefore, the power of God is not unable to give everyone happiness, but it is unwilling. So God Deliberately trying to control everyone's destiny, letting them get what they want, and making them lose the ones they love, only then will people beg to God.

Do they think that everything they get is given by God, so they are willing to offer it? ”

"Uh...when other souls heard what I said, they all knelt down in more awe and begged for a better life in the next life. How come you, after hearing what I said, immediately saw through the truth? Who are you?"

"My name is Sun Wukong."

The ghost suddenly stopped talking.

"This ghost brother, what's wrong with you?"

"I think of a person. Five hundred years ago, he held a book of life and death with his life span written on it and said, why should you decide how many years I want to live in this world? He checked it off with one stroke. After he checked it off, he pointed again. He said to the mountain-like billions of books of life and death, how many years these creatures live, how they live, how they die, it doesn't matter to you! So they were all burned."

"Is there such a person? What happened to him?"

"Don't you remember?"

"Remember what?"

"Later, all living things in the world were immortal, and they had a long time to pursue and experience everything. So no one needed God anymore, and everyone respected the person who canceled the book of life and death as a hero. God was furious , denounced all the undead as demons. Later...a hundred years of war between gods and demons broke out, and the world almost turned into purgatory. So the world thought that man had offended the gods and brought disaster to them, and called him the devil. Later. ...Do you really not remember?"

"Five hundred years ago? I only have the memory of crawling out from under a mountain. As soon as my eyes adapted to the light, I saw a monk smiling at me... That's right! I came here just to find Return to that monk’s soul. He hasn’t brought me to the West yet, so he can’t die.”

"Is that so...Follow me."

The ghost took Sun Wukong and walked tens of thousands of miles of dark roads to the depths of the underworld.

There is no road ahead, there is an endless cliff, and beyond the cliff, there is endless void.

He took Sun Wukong to the edge of the cliff: "There is nothing about life and death that King Netherworld doesn't know. Just ask him."

"Where is he? I can't see anything!"

"Do you know where this is?"

"It seems like the end of the earth."

"That's right, there is no land ahead. When mortals get here, they can no longer go beyond one step. They can only fall into the bottomless void. This is called Xiangkong Mountain."

"Interesting."

"If you want to see the underworld, go here."

"Where to go?"

"Of course, jump down. Whether you can reach the bottom depends on your practice. People who have no destiny will not reach the bottom in ten years or a hundred years, and will fall forever. If they are enlightened, they can reach the other side directly. At that time Descending is ascending, darkness is infinite light."

"I understand, please lead the way." Sun Wukong pushed the ghost gently from behind.

"Ah! Help!" The ghost fell straight down, his voice getting farther and farther away.

Sun Wukong came to the edge of the cliff: "Have you ascended? Have you seen the light?"

"Dead monkey - you - give - me - remember - live - live - live -" the voice gradually became smaller and could not be heard.

Sun Wukong turned around, only to find himself alone in the boundless darkness.

"Is there no direction here?"

"Who said no?" said a voice in the darkness.

"Who, please don't always talk to me suddenly?"

"There are only two directions here, up and down."

"Could it be that the only way to find Ksitigarbha is to jump down?" Sun Wukong looked around but couldn't see anything.

"That's not necessarily the case. If you don't realize it, thousands of miles will be in vain; if you understand it, there will be a spiritual mountain at your feet."

"Oh, it's so profound - if you don't say it, it means you said it. If you say it, it means you didn't say it!"

"You want to seek solutions, but you are not sincere. How can I enlighten you?"

"Enlighten me? What a fool you are! Come out!"

"Am I not right in front of you?"

"Where are they? Why don't you show off your front teeth first?"

Suddenly, Sun Wukong's eyes lit up. Two large pieces of white suddenly appeared in the darkness behind the cliff, with a radius of dozens of miles. There was black in the white, and there was a shadow in the black. When he looked at the shadow, he saw that It's Sun Wukong himself.

Sun Wukong looked at it for a long time: "There is nothing but two eyes!"

"Do you know who I am?"

"Hey...I don't know, are you shameless?"

"Ah, bah, how did you know that my magical power of creation can fill the world. Hahaha, I am..."

"Don't listen! It doesn't matter which bird you are."

"I...I just say, I am..."

"Don't listen, don't listen, don't listen, don't listen, don't listen..."

"Hmph, hum, I'm so angry! You monkey..."

"Are you angry now? With your virtue, you still enlighten me?"

"Shut up, I am the Nether King!"

The monkey suddenly became silent.

"Hmph! Why don't you say anything? If you want to find Master, you have to ask me. I just recited a few famous quotes, and you dare to be impatient!"

The monkey doesn't speak.

"Your master's soul has never come here at all. There are only two possibilities: one is that he has attained the Tao and ascended to heaven; the other is that he has too many worries and still lingers in the world and becomes a lonely ghost."

Sun Wukong turned around and left.

"Where are you going?"

"It's not here, I'll look for it elsewhere."

"Just leave like this?"

"Thank you!" Sun Wukong said without looking back.

"What did you say? Say it again?"

"Thank you! How many more times do I have to say it?"

"Did you hear it? He said 'thank you'! Sun Wukong actually said 'thank you'! Sun Wukong actually said 'thank you' to me! Hahahahaha... I am so happy!"

"Hahahahahaha..." Countless laughter suddenly sounded in the darkness. Sun Wukong discovered that there were thousands of ghosts in the surrounding darkness. He was actually surrounded by the core, but he thought there was nothing around him.

"Hahaha, is this Sun Wukong?"

"He is so well-behaved now!"

"Look at how stupid he is! Look, what are you looking at!"

"Hahahaha..."

"Hahahaha..."

Sun Wukong suddenly felt something was wrong. Because of this situation, he was very calm.

In fact, he wanted to be angry, but he felt empty in his heart and nothing could come up.

So he could only walk slowly amid wild laughter.

"Why are they all laughing?"

"What should I do now?"

While he was thinking, he disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
