C135 Karmic Reincarnation
"Please take a seat." Great Devil Buddha said with a smile. His body was thin and his flesh dried up. Above his head, a blood red lotus bloomed with a strange light. He had a kind expression, full of compassion.
Hong Zheng sat down cross-legged and calmly looked at Great Devil Buddha. After pondering for a while, he said, "May I know what senior wants to ask?"
Great Devil Buddha was still smiling. His face was full of wrinkles.
"Benefactor, may I ask what is karma?" Hong Zheng was stunned. He did not expect Great Devil Buddha to ask such a question. He looked up at the sky with a thoughtful look in his eyes. He organized his words and said, "Karma, there is a cause, there is a reason. If there is a cause, there will be a fruit. "
Great Devil Buddha said, "Almsgiver, can you give an example?"
Hong Zheng nodded. "In Dragon City, the Situ Family and the Hong Family are not on good terms. They are preparing to destroy the Hong Family. This is the reason, but after that, I cut off their backbone. They were reduced to a second-rate family. This is the result. When I met Fingerprint Holy Son before, he attacked me, wanting to get rid of me. This is the reason, but after that, he was killed by me. This is also the result." Hong Zheng said.
Great Devil Buddha nodded. "The first question counts as benefactor's acceptance. I will ask the second question - what is karma?"
Hong Zheng frowned when he heard that. This second question was the same as the first question. However, Hong Zheng did not think that the second question was as simple as the first one. His brows tightly furrowed. Karmic Reincarnation, this was something that all cultivators would come into contact with. "What is Karmic Reincarnation?" A confused look appeared in Hong Zheng's eyes.
"Whatever karma is planted, it will bear fruit. But why does karma have to be connected to reincarnation?" Hong Zheng thought hard.
Great Devil Buddha was not in a hurry. He just looked at Hong Zheng with a smile.
Hong Zheng remembered Lee Qingyi. She was a Reincarnation Body that had experienced reincarnation. If Lee Qingyi's reincarnation was successful, then what was the reason for Lee Qingyi's reincarnation?
"Death, it must be death. It was precisely because Lee Qingyi died that she reincarnated." Hong Zheng's eyes lit up.
"Karma is death and rebirth." Hong Zheng said, "I've met someone before. She's the Reincarnation Body."
A strange look appeared in Great Devil Buddha's eyes, and then he slowly said, "According to what you said, her death is the cause, and reincarnation is the result. Let me ask one more question. If her rebirth is the cause, then what is the fruit? "
Hong Zheng said slowly, "This is something that will happen in the future. With my current level of cultivation, it is difficult for me to spy on it."
Great Devil Buddha laughed and said, "You have passed. Let me ask you one last question. What is your own karma?"
Hong Zheng was stunned. His karma? Hong Zheng had never considered this before.
Great Devil Buddha continued, "According to the Reincarnation Body you mentioned just now, death is the cause, and rebirth is the result. Then, have you encountered any karma in this area? "
A bolt of lightning flashed across Hong Zheng's heart. If it was the reason why he was schemed against by Situ Luoxin in the desert... If that was the case, his death in Wondrous Medicine Devil Land would be the result. Then what happened next was the reason why he was reborn in the Wondrous Medicine Devil Land. Then what was the fruit of his death?
"The reason why Situ Family was planted by me, then the fruit was given to me by you. Then, who gave you your karma?" Great Devil Buddha asked.
"My karma was given by Situ Luoxin... No, my father gave it to me... Ten years ago, he was the one who killed me..." Hong Zheng fell into the devil barrier. He thought hard and his eyes gradually turned red. "Situ Luoxin planted this reason for me, but my father also planted this reason for me. This means that my revival is the result. Then, if my rebirth is the cause, then where is my fruit? "
" Where is my fruit? " Hong Zheng let out a low roar.
"Follow your heart. It knows where your fruit is." Great Devil Buddha's voice rang in Hong Zheng's ears, carrying a kind of charm. "Tell me, what is my karma?"
"I am here because of a soul, which means I am dead. Then should I appear here, be it karma or karma? If it was for a reason, then you wouldn't be able to predict the result. If my appearance was for a reason, then the cause of all this... What is it?" Great Devil Buddha kept asking.
At this moment, Hong Zheng could only feel his mind being pulled, as if it was about to fly away. Hearing Great Devil Buddha's words, he subconsciously said, "The fruit that you showed up here is the reason why I planted it?"
Just this sentence had completely made Great Devil Buddha explode. He suddenly stood up and looked down at Hong Zheng. His voice was as loud as a huge bell. "It was because you planted the fruit!"
When Hong Zheng heard this, his body tilted and fell into the void. Great Devil Buddha stared at Hong Zheng's body with an expressionless face.
Hong Zheng could only feel that he had fallen into a kind of devil barrier as he was constantly searching for the cause and effect.
"What is this place?" Hong Zheng found himself in a gloomy environment. He was surrounded by green fog, and his visibility was less than five meters. Everything in front of him was difficult to see clearly. Suddenly, he lowered his head to look at his own body. Shock appeared in his eyes.
That was because he discovered that his body was an illusion, and there wasn't even a trace of flesh and blood in it. However, he discovered that his magical force did not disappear.
"An illusion?" Hong Zheng muttered to himself. Suddenly, he noticed two lamps appearing in front of him. They were blood-red in color. The moment he saw the lamp... A desire suddenly emerged in Hong Zheng's heart - he must get close to the lamp. He didn't know why he felt this way all of a sudden. It was as if all of this was an instinct.
He walked forward, his feet stepping on the ground, but he didn't make a single sound. As Hong Zheng walked forward, a path appeared in front of him. Upon closer inspection, the path was only three feet wide. It was all paved with Dark Green Brick. On both sides of the road, towering walls appeared. Looking up, one could not see the end. Hong Zheng gradually approached the place where the lights were. When he saw clearly, he felt a shiver in his heart.
The light came from two lanterns. The lanterns were blood red, as if they were made of paper. Hanging at the entrance of a building, this building... It was a mansion. There were two pairs of stone lions at the entrance of the vermillion door. The gate was tightly shut. It was extremely sinister, and it was shrouded in a layer of green smoke.
Hong Zheng raised his head and looked at the mansion. There were two words written on it - Relay Station. After pondering for a while, a resolute expression appeared on his face. He pushed the door open abruptly.
Hong Zheng was stunned when he pushed open the door. He saw that there was a hubbub of voices inside, and it was packed with people. Countless figures were shuttling back and forth. It was very lively. The first thing that appeared in front of Hong Zheng was a large courtyard. Dozens of tables were placed in the courtyard. The tables were filled with people. It was very lively as they exchanged cups.
"Come, come, come, drink a cup of wine. This wine is from my good-for-nothing descendants."
"Come, I have a cigarette here that was given to me by my family. Try it."
Similar words would appear at almost every table.
What made Hong Zheng's pupils shrink suddenly was that from time to time, a few people who were eating would suddenly stand up with excitement on their faces. "Here it comes, here it comes. I will get it first."
They quickly walked to the corner of the wall and grabbed at the void. Instantly, green smoke covered their hands.
A tall and slender cultivator with a wisp of green smoke on his right hand suddenly turned into a peerless beauty. The woman bowed deeply to the cultivator. "This servant greets Master."
"Good, good, good. Those useless descendants still have some conscience."
The green smoke on the other person's hand turned into an azure dragon. As soon as it appeared, it surrendered. The cultivator was all smiles, "You actually gave me a mount, you have a filial heart."
With Hong Zheng's disposition, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Where did I come to?"
