ordinary human life

"How did you become a guide?" Peach God asked.

"And, you actually have a guide." She glanced at the soul lamp on the table and exclaimed.

"I'm a little confused myself, can you tell me about it?" He Sihai smiled wryly.

"Because He doesn't allow God." Peach God tremblingly said.

It seems to be afraid of something?

"TA?" He Sihai was a little puzzled.

"You can think of it as the Tao, the origin, the rules, and all living beings..." Tao Shen said.

"Why does He not allow God? Since He does not allow it, why are you a God?" He Sihai asked suspiciously.

The question itself is somewhat paradoxical.

However, when he recalled the previous dream, he faintly realized something.

Taoshen was silent for a while upon hearing this.

Then he said, "Let's call him Tao for now."

Tao controls all things in the world, the cycle of life and death, and the cycle of all things.

There is a saying in the "Tao Te Ching" that the world is not benevolent, and everything is a humble dog.

Many people understand that God is not kind and treats everything as grass dogs.

But the real meaning is to express that Tao is impartial and treats everything in the world equally.

There is no evil in the Tao, and there is no good in nature. Everything comes naturally.

In the yang world, people rule people, and in the yin world, cunning rules cunning.

This is the cycle of yin and yang, and all things alternate.

But people worshiped tricks, so gods were born.

Each god represents a rule of Tao.

For Tao, it makes no difference whether it is a human being, a ghost, or a god itself.

But as the desires of worshipers become stronger, more and more, and more complex.

In the end, desire polluted the gods, and also polluted the rules.

The Tao begins to give birth to emotions.

Where there is emotion, there will be bias.

Everything will be out of balance and the world will be destroyed.

So the Tao first destroys the gods...

He Sihai opened his mouth wide, feeling that these are too unbelievable, too...

How should I put it, it feels a bit like reading a fantasy novel.

"Is this true?" He Sihai asked with some doubts.

But thinking of a dream I had before, I feel a little bit convinced.

Taoshen took a sip of tea, pursed her lips, and then showed a sly smile: "I don't know."

"Uh……"

Unexpectedly, the kind-hearted Peach God has such a side.

She suddenly thought of Ning Taohua who had just left. They had a similar feeling before.

"I also heard these legends from other places. I'm just a little god in a ruined temple, so I don't know much about it." Taoshen said sadly.

"Then are there many gods in this world? I have been to Netherland, and it seems that there are no gods there anymore." He Sihai said.

"Eh? You went to Netherland?" Tao Shen was startled when he heard this, and the water on his hands spilled out.

"What's the matter, is there a problem?" He Sihai asked doubtfully.

"Are you okay?" Tao Shen asked nervously.

"What can I do?"

"You came back safe and sound, how is Netherland?" Peach God asked curiously.

"You don't know?" He Sihai asked suspiciously.

Taoshen heard the words and said with a wry smile: "Although what I said earlier has no basis and no basis, the gods of the underworld were indeed destroyed by the Tao, and many ghosts fled to the human world by mistake."

"However, drastic changes have also taken place in the world. Human beings began to develop science. Especially a few decades ago, temples were destroyed, statues of gods were smashed, and more people began not to believe in God."

"Gods are born because of people, and they also die because of people. Many yin gods and ghosts who fled to the human world have completely disappeared, and very few can keep their gods, so the underworld has almost become a forbidden place."

He Sihai was a little taken aback when he heard the words, but the peach god in front of him, judging from her expression and posture, seemed not to have been affected by this catastrophe.

Seeming to see He Sihai's doubts, Tao Shen took the initiative to explain: "I am just a small god in a ruined temple with relatively small powers, so I am less affected."

But He Sihai didn't believe it.

Absolutely more than that.

He thought of the previous Lady Ping An.

She is probably a deity similar to Peach God, but she only has a trace of spiritual consciousness left, and she doesn't even have a complete form, otherwise she would not want to devour Luo Qingchen's strange body and use her to be reborn.

So Peach God must have something special about her.

He Sihai looked at the blooming peach branches on her head.

Noticing He Sihai's eyes, Taoshen's eyes flickered slightly, and he took a sip from the cup in his hand to cover up.

He Sihai didn't continue to ask, but said: "I still don't understand, why didn't you let Ning Taohua know about your existence?"

"Because I don't know when I will die completely? And the reason why Peach Blossom looks weird is just because of an accident in my childhood, and it's not my intention." Peach God sighed.

"You seem to be particularly concerned about Ning Taohua?" He Sihai asked.

If she didn't care about Ning Taohua, she would never follow Ning Taohua here.

"Because Peach Blossom is also my descendant." Peach God showed a gentle smile.

"Huh?" He Sihai was very surprised when he heard this.

So Ning Taohua is considered a descendant of the gods?

Wait, if you say that you don't recognize the existence of gods, is she still a god?

"That was a long, long time ago. I just... forget it, let's not talk about it." Taoshen stopped suddenly.

Then he asked He Sihai curiously: "Can you tell me, how did you become a guide?"

Because to become a guide, one needs to be recognized by the Tao.

But Dao obviously does not allow God, why is he an exception?

Could this be a sign of the revival of the gods?

Thinking of this, Taoshen felt a little excited.

Chapter 263

The afternoon sun shone through the window.

Falling on Shen Tianfang's face, the warm sunlight woke Shen Tianfang up in a daze.

He basically didn't sleep much last night, and he who was guarding the bed in the afternoon finally fell asleep in a daze.

The first time he woke up, he looked at the hospital bed. His wife was lying quietly on the bed, and the ECG monitor was normal. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But then a trace of sadness climbed up his brows, and the doctor told him that if the patient doesn't wake up, I'm afraid...

In the past few years since his wife fell ill, he has devoted almost all of his energy to her. The development of the company has almost stagnated, and his daughter has also become estranged from him.

He knew that his wife's illness was almost hopeless, and sometimes he really wanted to give up.

But he couldn't bear it, he couldn't be reconciled, and he was even more reluctant.

He and his wife met in college, and they have gone through ups and downs along the way. Without his wife's persistence and encouragement, he would not be where he is today.

He originally planned to take a rest when he was 40 years old, and then spend time with his wife and children, and take a good look at the world.

But his wife's illness disrupted all his plans.

Whether it is work or life, it has gradually become a mess. Running between the hospital and the company every day, I feel exhausted, and I can't even take care of my children...

Shen Tianfang stood up, poured himself a glass of water, and looked out the window outside the ward.

There is a tall sycamore tree outside the window, which seems to emit golden light in the afternoon sunset.

"The leaves are turning yellow..." Suddenly a voice said behind him.

"Yes, it's already autumn." Shen Tian replied subconsciously.

Then he reacted, and the water glass in his hand fell to the ground, making a crackling sound.

But he couldn't care less now, he turned around and looked at the hospital bed with surprise on his face: "Honey, are you awake?"

Pei Jinxiu struggled and wanted to sit up from the bed, but found that her bodyguard was limp and weak, and she had no strength at all.

"Don't move, I'll let the doctor take a look." Shen Tianfang hastily pressed her shoulder lightly.

As Shen Tianfang said, he was about to ring the call bell on the bedside.

"Don't worry, I have something to tell you." Pei Jinxiu said.

Shen Tianfang's face changed when he heard the words, and he said anxiously: "Wait...after the doctor's examination, you...you can tell me slowly."

"What are you thinking?" Pei Jinxiu gave him a blank look.

Then he asked, "Where's my necklace?"

"It's...in the drawer." Shen Tianfang hurriedly opened the bedside table next to him, and took out the necklace inside.

This necklace was given to her by Shen Tianfang when she was in college. For it, Shen Tianfang worked a summer job, so Pei Jinxiu cherished it very much.

Even though she later got better looking and more precious ones, she still wore this one all the time.

Pei Jinxiu stretched out her left hand to take it, then held it in front of her eyes for a closer look, and then said to the door: "Miss Ning..."

"You..." Shen Tianfang just asked.

I saw a woman walking in from the door.

"Who are you?" Shen Tianfang asked doubtfully.

But the woman didn't answer him, and went straight to the hospital bed.

Pei Jinxiu reluctantly handed the necklace on his hand to the other party.

"This is the reward paid to guide the adults."

"Huh, it's just a necklace?" Ning Taohua was a little disappointed, but she still reached out to take it.

"This necklace is the most precious thing to me." Pei Jinxiu said seriously.

"Okay, it's not what I want anyway, but what kind of stone is this that can really bring you back into your body?" Ning Taohua put away the necklace and looked at her tightly clenched right hand.

She has been curious for a long time, and has never been embarrassed to come and study.

"Who the hell are you? What are you talking about? And Jinxiu, that's your favorite necklace, why did you give it to someone else?" Shen Tian asked with a puzzled look on his side.

"Your husband?" Ning Taohua glanced at Shen Tianfang, and asked Pei Jinxiu who was lying on the bed.

Pei Jinxiu showed a sweet smile, then spread her palms and said, "Miss Ning, you can also take this back to Mr. Yin."

She was back in her body and didn't need it anymore.

And this is obviously a treasure, it is impossible for Mr. Jieying to give it to her directly for a necklace.

So it's better to let Ning Taohua take it back directly. She looked at the stone in her hand curiously all the way, and she wanted to study it for a long time.

Sure enough, Ning Taohua immediately took the stone from her hand with joy on her face.

then……

Pei Jinxiu's whole body seemed to be down, and she was lying on the bed straight. If the electrocardiogram was not normal, she would have thought she was dead.
