Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

Chapter 507 Questions from past lives

When it comes to past lives, there are all kinds of stories.

Reincarnation is a rather romantic term.

If it is true, it means that human life actually has no end. As the soul is reset to zero again and again, it will continue to usher in new life, with a huge past and an infinite future.

There is no end to life, so there is no joy in death.

The idea of ​​reincarnation has been popularized a long time ago.

For example, in a more serious story, reincarnation is used to teach future generations what karma is.

It is said that there was a county magistrate in ancient times. When this magistrate took office, he was very dissatisfied because the abbot of the local temple did not come to visit him. So the magistrate came up with a plan and secretly sent a prostitute from a brothel to visit him. By seducing the monk, the temple abbot broke his sexual precept. He felt so ashamed the next day that he committed suicide, leaving behind a desperate poem.

On the day the monk died, the county magistrate's daughter became pregnant and gave birth to a girl... Time passed by, and the county magistrate died of illness before taking office more than ten years ago. After his death, the tree fell and the hozens scattered, and the family declined rapidly. His granddaughter was also forced to live in the world and became a famous prostitute in a brothel... When the famous prostitute named Liu was in her twenties, she accidentally met a monk, and the master told her something After reading the story and naming the origin of this famous prostitute, the woman suddenly realized... It turned out that her previous life was the monk who committed suicide after being plotted by the county magistrate. She was reincarnated into the bloodline of the county magistrate in order to ruin his family style and retaliate. The hatred of that year.

This is karma.

"Why are you telling me these stories?" Mu Yaoxi listened silently to the few short stories told by the other party, but did not feel that they had anything to do with her.

She had seen many such cautionary tales in the past.

"Just treat it as a casual chat, and I'd like to give you a reminder." The dark-colored woman said: "When it comes to reincarnation, there are always causes and consequences."

"as a result of……"

"Yes, every cause must have its effect, and your retribution..."

The previous life smiled slightly and paused here.

She changed the topic, waved her hand gently, and the scene around her changed accordingly. A piece of white paper suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and a little person appeared behind the white paper.

Ink landscape painting, cyan silhouette, shadow puppet show.

"Let me tell you another story."

"Imagine that there is such a multiple-choice question."

"In a dark secret room, two people were poisoned and their lives were short."

After snapping his fingers, a woman in green clothes appeared on the screen. She was sitting on the ground, her back was very clear.

"One of them is your teacher, recognized as one of the top ten in the world. He doesn't despise your humble background, doesn't care about your ordinary understanding, doesn't care that you can't see, and teaches you wholeheartedly. You are helpless in the sect. Being able to depend on each other for our lives, if she hadn't picked you up as a child, you would have froze to death in the heavy snow. It was she who brought you to the mountain gate against all the opinions, and spent all her energy to instill true energy into you. I have been stagnant for several years because of my great kindness and kindness, and I am grateful for my kindness and kindness."

Then the previous life clicked on the ink-colored screen again.

"The other person is a scourge in the world, a murderer of countless people, causing bloodshed wherever he goes. He is also the goal you have been pursuing for many years...but, he is also your childhood playmate. When you were children, horse bandits robbed the village and killed all your relatives. You wandered for several years, hiding together and relying on each other. Later, you were forced to separate because of an incident. You searched for each other for many years and only met three times. This time the devil If you fight with Master, you will both lose and get poisoned."

She clapped her hands together, and a ball of gold floated out of her palms and disappeared into the picture.

"Now you have a golden elixir in your hand that can save the lives of these two people, but you can only save one person."

Mu Yaoxi asked: "Golden elixir can only save one person?"

"Yes, only one person can be saved."

"Then I'll melt it away first..."

"It can't be dissolved."

"Then split it in half."

"It's also inseparable."

"Then..."

The woman in the previous life interrupted directly: "This golden elixir cannot be split, it cannot turn into water, and it cannot be destroyed by any means. If it is incomplete, it will no longer be effective, and you will die once you use it. "

After blocking all the clever ideas, she asked: "Answer me now, who are you going to save?"

The woman in the previous life looked at Mu Yaoxi silently and asked questions calmly. Her soft words put people in a dilemma.

Mu Yaoxi looked at herself in the previous life and was slightly shocked. She really didn't expect that there would be such emotional entanglements in the previous life. This kind of multiple-choice question must be based on actual experience, right?

She thought for a while and asked, "Does that devil know me?"

"Of course I know you, but maybe I don't remember you."

"Has this devil done anything for me?"

"Maybe I've done some things, but not much, and it doesn't have much effect."

"Why have I pursued this demon for so many years?"

"Maybe it's because you want to find out what happened back then? Maybe it's for some other reason, or maybe it's because you like it?" The previous life seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "How do you choose?"

Mu Yaoxi thought for a while and said, "I would rather let myself live. If I use the golden elixir to save others, will I definitely die?"

"Yes, of course I will." He said in his previous life: "If no one can save me, that is still an option."

"I choose Master." Mu Yaoxi said, "In fact, I don't have a choice."

"Are you sure?" asked the previous life.

"I am sure."

"Are you really sure?"

"……Sure."

The woman in the previous life smiled and waved the ink-colored scroll away: "Okay, now let's look at the next question."

"Wait, is this the next question?" Mu Yaoxi asked, "What's the answer to the previous question?"

"When you take the exam, do you have to look at the answers to every question?" The previous life said: "All questions will be answered after the end."

She took a step forward, passing through the layer of ink color, and a second screen rose in front of her, which was also the second shadow puppet show.

"Let's take a look at the second question..."

The picture presented on the screen scroll is more intense than the first one.

It was a red city burning with raging fire.

"On a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, the Central Plains were sinking, the Three Kingdoms attacked Zhao, and the capital was besieged for half a year. The city ran out of ammunition and food. On the day when the city was destroyed, people from the good and the evil gathered here. Some wanted to save more people, and some wanted to We have to pick up more benefits, until in the chaos, the fire breaks out, half of the capital turns into a sea of ​​​​fire, good and evil meet, and everyone is jealous..."

She narrated in a calm tone. From the perspective of a bystander, the scroll seemed to come alive, constantly flickering with firelight, sword shadows, corpses, and burning pavilions.

"As for you, you got separated from your fellow disciples along the way. You encountered several attacks in the capital, but you were very lucky to learn some information about the Demon Cult."

"You know that there is a treasure house hidden in the capital. That is the target of the high-level demons. Only a few people know its location."

"But before the fall of Zhao, the monarch of Zhao hid a lot of explosives in the city, waiting for people to break in and burn them all."

"At the same time, he also transformed the treasure house and hid it with poisons and traps. Anyone who steps into it will surely die. If no one opens it from the outside, the people inside will definitely die within half a quarter of an hour at most."

"You have learned two pieces of news at this time..."

"The first one is that your sect brothers have been ambushed. If you tell them to evacuate now, you can leave safely. You can also get praise from righteous people, and maybe you can become famous all over the world. If you don't go, this group of people will not know how. How many casualties there are, the more likely it is that you are suspected of having an affair with the devil."

"The second one is, regarding the whereabouts of the devil, the childhood playmate I have been looking for has been trapped underground. If you don't help, there is absolutely no way to come out alive; if you save the devil, Then the other party may not be grateful to you, you will not get any benefits, and you may be considered to be related to the devil, and you will be severely punished when you return to the sect."

One left and one right, two scrolls.

On one side is the righteous disciple who is in danger, and on the other side is a person's safety.

"What do you choose to do?" the previous life asked with a smile.

Trolley problem, moral dilemma.

Either save one person and let oneself bear the reputation of being suspected; or save more people and enjoy praise.

Of course, it’s okay to do nothing, pretend you don’t know anything, and get through it peacefully.

Mu Yaoxi was not in a hurry to answer, but because this multiple-choice question was an answer.

"It's this devil again..."

"Since he appeared in the first question, does it prove that he survived this time?"

"So you...I gave up aiding other righteous people, but risked being suspected to save him?"

The previous life said: "It doesn't matter whether the answer is right or not, what matters is how you want to choose?"
