Chapter 225 The Ghost King beside Du Feng

Before Buddhism was introduced to China, the Chinese did not think that ghosts were harmful to people, because China had extremely respect for their ancestors, such as Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs: Mountain Ghosts". After the Five Barbarians invaded China, Buddhism gained a foothold in order to raise the status of the Buddha, in order to reduce the Chinese local gods into six paths or incorporated into existences lower than those of the Buddha.

In the history of Chinese culture, the Shang and Zhou dynasties had the concept of immortality in the ancestors, and the superstitious thought of reincarnation propagated by Buddhism in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Among the pre-Qin philosophers, scholars had more unique views on the underworld, including Confucianism, Taoism and Mohism.

The influence of the three schools on later generations should be Confucian. Confucianism's attitude towards life and death and ghosts and gods are found in the Analects of Confucius, the Book of Rites and other books, and the one that best reflects Confucius' thoughts is the Analects of Confucius. Taoism believes that all things in the world are transformed by one qi, and the qi gathers and dies when the qi disperses. Seen in Liezi, Guanzi, and Zhuangzi; while Mohist respects the ghosts and ghosts and gods, and mixes ghosts and gods with politics and religion, and becomes a powerful tool for politics and religion, not just pure belief. From Mozi's point of view, the ability (power, wisdom) of "ghosts" is greater than that of sentient beings, and fair and selfless. They can only serve the "ghosts" respectfully and cannot be violated. The ghosts seen after the Six Dynasties cannot be seen in Mozi's works.

In addition to the Mohist classics, those who can better see the attitudes of the ancient people towards ghosts and gods include "Zuo Zhuan", "Mandarin", "The Ming of Ghosts and Gods", "Yan Zi", "The Strategies of the Warring States", "Lüshi Chunqiu", "Chu Ci", "Shan Hai Jing" and other books.

But when I really came into contact with these things, I had a new definition of ghosts.

When Hu Yiyi began to say that this thing was not an ordinary ghost, a very independent existence appeared in my mind.

Of course, the evil ghosts and other things will not attract Hu Yiyi's attention. After eliminating so many impossible things, no matter how impossible the remaining one is, it is the only answer, that is, the truth.

Ghost King!

If I'm not wrong.

"You said that the thing around him could not be the Ghost King, right?" I asked carefully.

"Yes!" Hu Yiyi answered very firmly.

This point made me unexpected. Why did Hu Yiyi's answer be so affirmative?

"I didn't feel that the evil aura was answered. Shouldn't the evil aura on the Ghost King be very strong?" I asked in confusion.

"Evil energy is a symbol and a means of attack. Do you think the Ghost King is the same as the counterfeit and inferior products like Liu Yaxin? Who would show off with this thing without any trouble?" Hu Yiyi said.

"No way? Why do I feel that it's impossible? The Ghost King will have his own personality, and it's not as confused as ordinary ghosts. In addition, there is nothing on Du Feng that is worthy of the Ghost King's level creatures. So how could the things around him be the Ghost King?" I asked.

"You are wrong with this. If the Ghost King is so easy to figure out, it will not be feared by so many people." Hu Yiyi said.

"Then can we deal with this kind of thing?" I asked.

"It's okay to deal with it. It's just..." Hu Yiyi said.

"Just what?" I asked.

"Do you still remember where that place was just now?" I asked.

"Antique shop?" I asked.

"Antique shop? No, it's not the building materials market. If we anger this guy, think about what consequences it will have." Hu Yiyi said.

At this time, I was sweating a lot. If something really happened, I would not cause a large-scale casualties?

These things are merits for Hu Yiyi, and she will not take this risk to deal with a ghost king.

"We won't care about this thing on Du Feng?" I asked.

"No matter what? That won't be true. I will care about this kind of thing when it appears on my territory. Besides, this thing has something to do with that painting." Hu Yiyi said.

"I'll ask you a question." I said.

"What are you asking?" Hu Yiyi picked up a glass of water and took a sip.

"Will the Ghost King become interested in things like resentment?" I asked.

"No. Didn't I explain it? There are basically no creatures who are interested in it like resentment. Except for things like Xiao Heizi, no creature likes it." Hu Yiyi said.

"Then the question comes. Since the Ghost King around him is not interested in resentment, what's the point of staying by his side? Besides, that thing is gone yet." I said.

"I haven't considered it yet, maybe there is something inexplicable about the Ghost King and that painting." Hu Yiyi said.

"If you say that, I won't know, and I haven't considered it." I said.

"I didn't expect you to think about it at all." Hu Yiyi frowned.

"Uh, then forget it." I said helplessly.

"We have to make a good idea," said Hu Yiyi.

"Well. I haven't been in contact with the Ghost King yet, but my half-baked level is probably helpful," I said.

"If you didn't get the Nanli, I might not let you go. But since you have got the Nanli, you can participate in the affairs of the Ghost King." Hu Yiyi said.

"Is the power of Nanli so great?" I asked in confusion.

"That's right. I haven't asked you yet. You even got Nanli after you went to the underworld? I remember that Nanli was not left in the underworld." Hu Yiyi said.

"How do I know this?" I said.

"Your combat power is not strong enough, which can help you increase your score." Hu Yiyi said.

"Why do I feel like playing games? My combat power can actually be improved by a piece of equipment." I said it unacceptably.

"That's why you don't know how powerful Nanli is. Get up and hand me the apple." Hu Yiyi said and patted me.

I handed him an apple.

Then I clenched my nails.

"Don't bite your nails. If you want to eat apples, I can give you half." Hu Yiyi said as she was about to hand me the apple.

"No, I don't want to eat apples anymore. I'm thinking about Du Feng's affairs." I said.

"Are you worried?" Hu Yiyi raised her eyebrows lightly.

"Yes. There is trouble around my buddy. How can I not worry?" I said.

"Actually you don't need to worry." Hu Yiyi said to me after taking a big bite of the apple.

"Don't worry? What does it mean?" I don't understand what Hu Yiyi said.

"We don't know the purpose of the Ghost King, but the Ghost King must not get what she wants." Hu Yiyi said.

"What will the Ghost King want? What will it be?" Hu Yiyi said.

"I don't know what she wants. But the Ghost King has no shortage of lifespan and no shortage of wisdom. What can he get from Du Feng?" said Hu Yiyi.
