Chapter 269.2
After feeling a little emotional in his heart, Feng Shao began to investigate Lian Yingying’s situation carefully.
As Liu Shou said before, Lian Yingying was almost slain completely under that single strike. But the divine stone in her hand protected her soul at a critical moment. Now, of the three souls and seven essences, only one soul and one essence remained. The other two souls and six essences are missing. If they can’t find these two souls and six essences, let alone wake Lian Yingying up, she may not even be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation.
The so-called three souls in ancient times are Taiguang, Shuangling, and Youjing, that is, the heavenly soul, the earthly soul, and the human soul. The seven essences refer to Shigou, Fushi, Queyin, Tunzei, Feidu, Chuji, and Xiufei. They correspond to joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire.
Generally speaking, the three souls and seven essences are inseparable, but in some cases, there will be separation, such as violent mood swings. Excessive anger, fear, sadness, etc., will have a chance of losing the soul. However, this situation is not serious, and some mountain witch doctors and even witches who do not have a cultivation base can cure those. Villagers in the mountains call it “calling the soul,” and the lost soul can be easily brought back only by using some more cumbersome means.
But in Lian Yingying’s situation, it’s obviously not something that can be saved by ‘calling the soul.’ When other people lose their souls, at most they would lose one soul and one essence. But Lian Yingying’s three souls and seven essences lost two souls and six essences, so she would require the use of special methods and cooperation with special magical items.
Feng Shao, who knows exactly such a method, also has a required magical item.
Feng Shao glanced at Lian Chengyuan and Liu Shou, and said in a deep voice, “I will start saving people now, and I will trouble you two to protect me.”
Liu Shou immediately nodded and said, “Okay, big brother Feng!”
Lian Chengyuan went out first and ordered everyone not to approach the inner hall for a hundred meters. If someone enters rashly, they will be shot and killed. After giving the order, he returned to the inner hall and said to Feng Shao, “I have already given the order, please feel free to do it, young master Feng.”
At this moment, Lian Chengyuan’s way of speaking is not at all like a sect master holding great power, capable of wielding the devil dao sects of Beizhou like limbs, but like a submissive domestic slave.Feng Shao nodded silently, and took out the Six Paths Wheel from the Tianhua Jade Slip.
On the Six Paths Wheel, six rotating wheels are slowly turning, and a faint golden light is shrouded on them. Feng Shao placed the Six Paths Wheel on Lian Yingying’s chest and chanted the mantra for controlling the Six Paths Wheel.
As Feng Shao chanted, the six golden round wheels rotated faster and faster, and the golden light became more vigorous. At the same time, the unremarkable divine stone that had been placed beside Lian Yingying suddenly floated up out of thin air. It seemed to have its own consciousness, and it consciously flew over the Six Paths Wheel. The golden light on the Six Paths Wheel immediately covered it, and the light burst out in an instant.
Looking at the scene in front of them, Liu Shou and Lian Chengyuan clenched their fists. They stared at the Six Paths Wheel, without blinking their eyes. At this moment, the nervousness made them forget everything outside, only the girl lying quietly on the ice bed could be seen in front of them.
Feng Shao closed his eyes tightly, and began to search for Lian Yingying’s two souls and six essences that were lost outside through the Six Paths Wheel and the divine stone.
Even if the three souls and seven essences of a person are scattered, there is an innate connection in the dark. It’s just that this connection seems to be absent, which is inaccessible for ordinary people. Feng Shao had the Six Paths Wheel, so he was able to use this weak connection to search.
It’s just that the process of searching for the soul is not easy.
Lonely ghosts passed by Feng Shao one by one. The eyes they looked at Feng Shao were full of longing for life, and they stretched out their dry hands at Feng Shao with sounds of “huh, huh, huh.”
Their faces were full of begging as if they were asking Feng Shao for help. But Feng Shao was completely unmoved because he really couldn’t help them.
Feng Shao’s consciousness gradually faded away. After searching for a long time, he finally found Lian Yingying’s figure in a dark mist. He saw that Lian Yingying was wearing a blue dress, delicate and pretty, but her face was full of confusion. She just stood there quietly, motionless, as if she could stand forever if no one disturbed her.
Feng Shao stepped forward and said softly, “Lian Yingying, it’s time to wake up.”
Lian Yingying looked at Feng Shao blankly, then shook her head and said, “I can’t go with you.”
Feng Shao was greatly surprised and asked suspiciously, “Why?”
Lian Yingying looked away and said calmly, “I’m waiting for him. I know, I know he will definitely come to me.”
