Tianwei Chapter 309: New Life (1)
It was really hard to connect the dots between Grandpa Shi's words. I was confused and felt like I was back to the time when he explained to me what the essence of the Eight Ropes was.
Seeing my confusion, Grandpa Shi explained in more detail and directly: Your mother is determined to break the shackles of the Eight Ropes and remove the shackles that have existed since ancient times. Therefore, she wants a child who can die and come back to life.
Why? I asked.
Grandpa Shi said: In this way, her children will not suffer the same curse in their old age. With the ability of the Eight Ropes lineage, what will happen if they are not punished by heaven in their old age?
I was a little stunned. Yes, what would happen then?
The eight ropes support the heaven and act on its behalf.
All power comes from heaven.
The will of the Eight Ropes represents the will of heaven.
As your practice deepens, the abilities you can exert will become stronger and stronger.
Theoretically, as long as the power of Taoism is sufficient, the Eight Ropes are omnipotent.
If one does not suffer from divine punishment in old age, then if one wishes to have eternal life, can one achieve eternal life?
If you want to be invincible, can you be invincible?
If the will wants this world to be reborn or destroyed, or to make certain changes, will the same situation happen?
I finally understood what my mother was planning for me.
She intended to change the world, but she was born with the will of heaven, and no matter how powerful she was, she could not go against heaven. Therefore, she wanted to cultivate a person who had "talent" but was beyond heaven.
In this way, what she cannot do, this person who transcends the limitations of heaven can do.
Is this the answer?
It's really shocking.
She actually used her own child to complete the so-called plan? Was the mother's obsession to the point of being possessed?
Your grandfather also knew about this plan, and he also knew that she used the Taoist method of controlling the universe to see part of the future and instigated the woman to go to the only life vein. You guessed right, before the birth of the eight ropes, you were indeed him. Grandpa Shi said.
My head was rumbling, I didn't know what I was thinking, and I didn't know what I was thinking. Although I had guessed, the truth and guess were two completely different things.
I really am him...
I am the old Taoist's junior fellow student.
Anyway, your grandpa and your grandma... Actually, you should call him grandpa, but he always wanted to have a grandson and hated that he gave birth to a daughter. He and your grandma had quarreled many times for this. But no matter what, they are a family after all. Your grandma's apprentice is also considered a half-relative of Ba Suo. The trap set by your mother not only avenged your grandma, but also implicated an innocent young man... Grandpa Shi sighed and continued: So your grandpa drove her out of the house in a rage and told your father all her plans. Your father was originally a cheerful person, and he was always proud of having a fairy-like wife. But when he learned about all the plans, he became depressed, so much so that he didn't even talk much later. And your grandpa's temper became more and more weird, and a good family ended up in a mess!
As Grandpa Shi spoke, he became a little angry: That girl is really too ignorant. No matter how much we persuade her, she will not listen and insists on doing it her own way. From childhood to adulthood, she has never listened to other people's opinions. As long as she thinks something is right, she must finish it...
So that's it... I whispered: The Five Elements Meridians were shattered because of her, and I split the stone beast in my previous life because of this. I think she should have already calculated where the road opened by the stone beast leads to, and was waiting there.
Strictly speaking, that is not a previous life. Grandpa Shi said: She erased your memory and injected your soul into the body of a newborn baby. So, you are still alive, but you have forgotten everything.
Can I get it back again? I asked.
No. Grandpa Shi shook his head and said: The Eight Ropes Method is different from the ghosts and gods in the underworld. The past that was erased by the latter can be recovered, but the former is completely shattered. Even the Five Classics Method cannot be recovered.
So...where is the real soul of Yang Tianyou?
She has been keeping it, and when you die, your soul will enter your body and you will be reborn as a human, Grandpa Shi said.
What a great plan... Although my anger has reached its peak, I still have to admit that this is a perfect plan.
Just like the corpses of the Heavenly Corpse Vein, after they die, they are refined into corpses again and will not "die" again for tens of millions of years. Although there are some differences between living people and corpses, the Eight Ropes Method can make up for it.
Transcending the limitations of heaven and earth and possessing the will of heaven, what can't such a person do?
The reason why my soul was used as a substitute was actually because of the inheritance of the Five Classics. I said: The Five Classics and Eight Ropes complement each other, and when combined into one, it is the pinnacle embodiment of "humanity".
Man can conquer nature, and that is what she planned to do. Grandpa Shi confirmed my guess.
But what if I destroy this body now?
Can you do it? Grandpa Shi asked back.
I remained silent because I knew I couldn't do it.
She can be cruel to her own children, to her own husband, to her own parents, but I can't. Whether it's hurting others or hurting myself, I can't do it.
You are born with this kind character, kind and unwilling to harm others or yourself. So no matter from which aspect, you are the best candidate for this plan. Grandpa Shi said.
I laughed and said : It seems that you, Grandpa Shi, also think this plan is perfect.
It is indeed perfect. Grandpa Shi sighed and said: But I would rather it have some flaws.
I can't think of any loopholes. She even took into account the Five Classics that had not been seen for a thousand years. The palm of the Eight Ropes could decide the outcome. It was really... So, unless I destroy my current body, there is no way to break the situation?
If you want to destroy yourself, then even if I try to stop her, she will try her best to kill you first and keep your body. If you live, you can live one more day. If you die, you will die. Grandpa Shi said.
I remember you said before that under normal circumstances, it would take another ten years for the world to change drastically?
Yes.
That means I can live another ten years...
Grandpa Shi's expression was a little gloomy and he didn't reply, but his attitude showed that I was right.
His attitude disappointed me.
Because he did not resolutely stop it, but passively watched things develop step by step to where they are now.
But I can't criticize him, because even I can't completely side with either side.
On one side is the person I watched grow up, and on the other side is his real grandson. How do I choose?
In the underworld, I encountered the most difficult choice because of my experience.
But Grandpa Shi... perhaps he has been hesitating for decades about this most difficult choice.
Alas... I sighed heavily and said: It seems that I have to have a head-on conflict with her.
You are no match for her, said Grandpa Shi.
I admit this. As a mother, no, to be precise, she is of the same generation as me. It's just that my soul is the old Taoist's junior brother, but my body is her child. This title is really difficult to judge.
Grandpa Shi is right, I am no match for her. If she can make this perfect plan, she will naturally have everything in her hands, and all unexpected factors will be eliminated.
Grandpa didn't let me learn Taoism at the beginning. Besides the fact that my soul was not the real Yang Tianyou, it was probably to protect me. If I don't learn the Eight Ropes Taoism, I won't be able to integrate with the Five Classics and become one, and I won't be able to reach the peak of true humanity.
But with her mind, how could she allow such an accident to happen? That corpse... the so-called master's prophecy...
It's really a chain of events, it's breathtaking.
She is like a god, playing with everyone in her hands. No one can escape because she is Basuo.
But I am also Basuo!
I am even more of a five-star person!
I just don’t believe that I can’t break this situation!
There are still more than ten years left, we will definitely be able to find a solution!
Thank you for helping me understand all the mysteries. I stood up, bowed to Grandpa Shi, and said: Just like you said, no matter what, I am your grandson. The same is true for me, no matter what, you are my Grandpa Shi.
Grandpa Shi looked at me, somewhat relieved and somewhat sad. He could only sigh deeply, shake his head helplessly, and had nothing to say.
I went to see the old Taoist priest, and I never expected that he was actually my senior brother. No wonder when I was with him, I felt like I had found someone to rely on, and there was a natural sense of familiarity.
Go ahead. Grandpa Shi waved his hand and said, "But until you come up with a foolproof plan, it's better to keep it a secret. The more unexpected factors there are, the more disadvantageous it will be for you."
Maybe, I can't say for sure. I smiled and walked out the door.
The moment I stepped out of the room, I felt relieved. Because the answer was revealed, I no longer had to guess. Moreover, I finally stood on the opposite side of her.
From this moment on, she and I were no longer mother and son, but enemies.
If she wins, I will die.
But I won... Could I have the heart to kill her?
I had just experienced the shock of realizing that my daughter was mine, and now I had to consider whether I could be cruel enough to "kill my mother." All the difficulties in the world seemed to be concentrated on me.
There is a word called tragic, and a saying goes, it's so tragic!
Even so, I have already opened my mind. When my heart is wide open, I will naturally feel relaxed.
There is no heaviness, only thinking.
I walked into the room with a brisk pace and saw the old Taoist sitting upright on the bed, talking softly to Fanran.
The relationship between the two of them is getting better and better. Compared to me, the old Taoist is obviously a more competent "father".
Looking at Fanran's beautiful and youthful face, I couldn't help but shake my head. This girl turned out to be my daughter. But then again, she seemed to have beaten me?
Gamu and Wei Qingcang stood aside, also talking with a smile.
The Tianshi lineage was unified, and the old Taoist was resurrected. For both of them, all the troubles might be solved.
But for me, this is just the beginning.
God bless you. The old Taoist priest called softly when he saw me coming in.
I nodded at him, thought about it, and then called out: Senior Brother.
The old Taoist was stunned, Fanran was also stunned, Gamu and Wei Qingcang looked at each other, also a little dazed.
I laughed and said: Wudian passed on the inheritance to me, and the Five Elements Meridian is also a part of Wudian. You are older than me, so you are naturally my senior brother. Fortunately, I didn't agree to be your apprentice at the beginning, otherwise I would have been demoted for nothing.
