Chapter 76 The God of the Three Dead
Taiyi Zhenren laughed again and said, "Not only is it carefree and the longevity is endless, but also sitting in the forgotten fairy palace, there is no killing, no oppression, everyone is a true immortal, equal friendship, isn't this not enough to attract Zhao Xianyou?"
"Yes, this is the fairyland in my fantasy!" Zhao nodded and sighed, "I didn't expect that today, I finally came to the fairyland!"
The seven fairies smiled and said, "Ha ha, Zhao Xianyou, there are still many immortal friends in this forgotten fairy palace. Some are good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and some like to talk about swords. Zhao Xianyou will definitely find a confidant."
"Is it? I don't know how many fairy friends there are in this forgotten fairy palace? Zhao Di asked curiously.
"No more than ten thousand. Some fairy friends like to travel around, some fairy friends like to stay behind closed doors, and some fairy friends like to make friends widely, each of which is different. Let me lead Zhao Xianyou to meet a few fairy friends nearby. The seven fairies said generously.
"There are two fairy friends!" Zhao Di said politely.
The two took Zhao Di and traveled around in this extremely gorgeous and beautiful fairy palace, and got to know a lot of real immortals.
Moreover, the two also assisted Zhao Di in choosing a tall and handsome mountain, opening up the fairy mansion and becoming Zhao Di's residence.
Next, almost every day, the two of them will invite Zhao Di to join other fairy friends, or listen to fairy music, or watch several fairies dance, or taste paintings and poetry, or drink fairy wine. It's so enjoyable.
Such a carefree life goes by very fast. Hundreds of years are fleeting. Although I have been here for a long time, it is not monotonous. Every day, there is a novel fairy dance. Or get to know more fairy friends.
Zhao Di is sitting in the Forgotten Fairy Palace. He almost forgot his identity. This carefree and safe life made him extremely calm, as if he was really reaching the state of his heart.
In the Forgotten Fairy Palace, Zhao Di not only made many like-minded fairy friends. Among them, there are also many confidants, especially the Seven Fairies, who are quite close to Zhao Di. Her every move makes Zhao Di feel indescribably comfortable. And she can always guess what Zhao Di thought.
hundreds of years later. Taiyi Zhenren proposed to let Zhao Di and the Seven Fairies get married. Of course, Zhao Di felt that it was natural, and the Seven Fairies just shyly pinched a few times and agreed.
On this day, sitting in the Forgotten Fairy Palace, in the Wangfan Peak, where Zhao Dixian Mansion is located, there are lights everywhere, and the fairy music is fluttering. It is a good day for Zhao Di and the seven fairies to get married. Zhao Di's friends all received an invitation and rushed here. The immortals drank and said happily. It was so lively!
This time, the fairy family's wedding was arranged by Taiyi Zhenren. It was not only festive and lively, but also very thoughtful. A grand wedding banquet was arranged in Zhao Dixian's house.
In order to celebrate, almost all the immortals and fairies present showed their skills, played a song, danced with music, danced swords and guns, or recited poems and painted, which was indeed an unprecedented scene.
And the most ** of the wedding banquet is undoubtedly that Zhao Di and the seven fairies covered with wedding gauze toasted the guests, and then stepped into the bridal chamber.
In the candlelight swaying and the red bridal chamber everywhere, Zhao Di sat on the edge of the bed with the seven fairies. Zhao Di gently lifted the veil cover of the seven fairies and saw the shy and amazing face of the seven fairies.
Zhao Di only felt that this face had an indescribable familiarity, which gave him a very peaceful and reliable feeling.
"Husband, are you happy today?" The seven fairies snuggled up in Zhao's arms and exhaled like an orchid.
"Of course I'm happy. Today is a happy day for you and me." Zhao Di replied without thinking.
The seven fairies asked again, "Are you satisfied with the life of sitting in the Forgotten Fairy Palace?"
Zhao nodded and said, "I'm extremely satisfied. I'm carefree and there is no threat here. Shouyuan is endless, and there are more friends and loving wives. What's wrong with me?"
"Is the husband willing to stay here with his concubine forever?" The seven fairies looked at Zhao Di affectionately, with two peach blossom-like blushes floating on his cheeks because of shyness, and his chest also fluctuated.
Zhao Di smiled and was about to bow his head and kiss his wife in his arms. Suddenly, a sword light scratched in front of him. His beloved wife in his arms suddenly let out a sad scream in the sword light, turned into a wisp of soul and disappeared.
Zhao Di was shocked and jumped up, only to find that there was a monk with a ferocious grimace mask in the bridal chamber.
"Who are you? Why did you kill my wife!" Zhao Di was furious. After entering the Immortal Palace, this was the first time he was angry and the first time he was ready to show his powerful magic power.
"I'm a ghost swordsman!" The person said faintly.
"Ghost Swordsman?" Zhao Di was stunned. He seemed to be a little familiar with the name.
At this time, the door of the bridal chamber was washed open, and an old man rushed in here. It was Taiyi.
"Zhao Xianyou, what happened? Why did the old man hear the exclamation and scream of the seven fairies? Taiyi said anxiously, with panic in his words, as if he had guessed the bad ending.
"This ghost swordsman, kill the seven fairies!" Zhao Di pointed to the grimace monk in front of him and said.
"Ghost swordsman? What a swordsman, there is no one else here!" Taiyi Zhenren turned a blind eye to the ghost swordsman in front of him, looking frightened and confused.
"Can't you see him?" Zhao Di was shocked, and his mind turned rapidly. He only felt that a lot of past things poured into his heart in an instant.
"I'm you, and you're me!" The ghost swordsman said coldly, and then took off the ghost face mask, revealing a beautiful young man's face, which made Zhao Di a little strange and familiar.
"You are me!" Zhao Di muttered, "Then who am I?"
The ghost swordsman snorted coldly and said, "You are Zhao Di. You are eager to seek immortals and shoulder heavy responsibilities, but you are greedy for pleasure here and can't stay. Do you know that after tonight, you can no longer get out of this fantasy in the water."
"Fantasy in the water? Is all this a fantasy? Why is it so real? After hundreds of years, I haven't noticed it. Zhao Di vaguely felt that the ghost swordsman's words were right, but he didn't want to believe that these hundreds of years of carefree life were just nothingness.
The ghost swordsman said, "Yes, this is all a fantasy. If you don't believe it, go and have a look. Those guests have already disappeared!"
Taiyi Zhenren frowned at this time and said coldly, "Zhao Xianyou, what are you talking to yourself? The guests outside have left, and of course they are not here! What about the seven fairies? Didn't you kill the seven fairies yourself?
"Did I kill my wife?" Zhao Di stepped back a few steps and suddenly sat on the edge of the bed. Countless confusion poured into his mind, making him have a splitting headache.
"Don't listen to his nonsense! Do you remember how you got into this underwater fantasy? The ghost swordsman said hurriedly.
"How to get in here?" Zhao Di muttered, "That's right, it's Jin Yu! Jin Yu sent me to Jingxian Pool, and then I came here!"
"Jin Yu, do you still remember Jin Yu? That's good." The ghost swordsman smiled, nodded and said, "Do you still remember your real wife Yun Mengli, drunkard Mei Zui, Qinxin fairy and other friends, boundless purgatory, and your other identity - ghost swordsman?"
The ghost swordsman's question was simply deafening for Zhao Di, and countless past events poured into his heart again. He couldn't help whispering, "Remember, remember, you are really me!"
When Taiyi heard Zhao Di's solir, he seemed to ask and answer, and couldn't help but change his face slightly, even with some fear.
The ghost swordsman smiled and said, "Since you remember it, you can definitely guess that this is the underwater fantasy of the pure fairy pool. Do you know who these Taiyi real people and the seven fairies are?
"Who is it?" Zhao Di was shocked.
"Three Dead Gods." The ghost swordsman said with hatred.
"Three corpses!" Zhao Di immediately realized. He suddenly realized.
Rumor has it that the last step for mortals to become immortals is to turn the mortal heart and cut off the three corpses. In the Taoist gate, these three corpse gods are divided into three types: upper, middle and lower, which are attached to the divine mind, Zhenyuan and physical body of the monks respectively. Only when all of them are cut off can they truly become immortals.
In the view of Buddhism, these three corpse gods represent the three obsessions in mortal hearts, that is, greed, desire and killing. Only by cutting off these three obsessions can we truly overcome the heart disaster, transform the mortal heart, and become a true immortal.
There are similar sayings in Confucianism and the magic practice formula, but the names are different.
"I didn't expect that my mind had met the requirements of the mortal heart, so I directly faced the threat of the three corpses in the pure fairy pool. As long as the three corpses were cut off, I could turn into immortals!" Zhao Di suddenly felt an indescribable Qingming in his mind. All the memories poured into his mind bit by bit, and he was suddenly a hundred times more energetic.
"Why do you have such an experience?" Zhao Di was slightly stunned.
The ghost swordsman laughed and said, "Because I just helped you destroy the corpse god who is in charge of desire. There is a trace of distracting thoughts in your consciousness, and you are naturally refreshed."
"It turns out that the seven fairies are the god of corpses." Zhao nodded, and then sneered at Taiyi Zhenren and said, "Ha ha, I'm afraid that the immortal friend of Taiyi is transformed by the corpse god in charge of greed in my body!" You and the seven fairies tried their best to confuse me in order to protect myself and hope that I will fall into the fantasy forever.
Taiyi's face changed greatly when he heard the words, and his body shook, and he wanted to escape.
But in Zhao Di's hand, under the movement of his mind, he transformed into a purple sword.
The sword in Zhao Di's hand waved gently, and a silent sword spirit tore open on the real person of Taiyi out of thin air.
"Ah!" In a scream, "Taiyi Zhenren" turned into a wisp of bad luck and disappeared.
"There is also a corpse god, but I don't know where it is!" Zhao Di said coldly.
