Hearing this, I couldn't help but exchanged glances with the two immortals, and then they all smiled knowingly at each other. After all, none of us want to identify ourselves with the ¡°lust for tongue¡± downcasts who are shut out from the underworld.
After seeing the reactions of the mother-in-law and me, the father-in-law continued calmly: "Actually, food is the most important thing for the people. As fragile life forms, it is understandable that you humans like to 'eat'. However, there are a few people The greed for "eating" has reached an incomparable level. In their concept, life is optional, but this "food" must be eaten. What I mean by "lust for tongue" refers to this kind of People! After their dead souls come to the underworld, because they no longer have the "taste" of delicacies in the world, they will desperately want to return to the human world just like the previous dead souls.
Of course, there are also "greedy" treacherous people. These people are far from reaching the level of gentlemen who are "lusty but not lewd". They will do everything for "beauty". Because a group of people have done unforgivable and substantive bad things in the world, they will definitely be directly locked up and escorted to 'hell' now. But there are also some people, although they are 'greedy', they haven't done anything horribly wrong in the world. If these people enter the underworld, they will become irritable or even crazy because their '**' has not been satisfied for a long time.
The 'wealth', 'desire of tongue' and 'sex' here are actually material. Of course, there are many other material aspects, and the three I have mentioned are just the most common and typical ones.
In addition to the material aspect, of course there is also the spiritual aspect. For example, 'greed for power'. Although power is invisible and intangible, it has infinite magic power. Because power can bring too many things to the world. With power comes inexhaustible wealth. "Get promoted and get rich, get promoted and get rich", many people get promoted just to get rich. Therefore, in the final analysis, many people who are "greedy for power" are still greedy for material "money". Of course, this is not the case for those who are 'greedy for power'. Some people "greed for power" just to enjoy the pleasure of being superior. Only with power can there be flattery, flattery, and supremacy Many heroes will spend their entire lives chasing power because they are bewildered by such pleasure. Perhaps, in addition to pleasure, they also want to get a sense of accomplishment. It's just that, many times, "whatever you gain, you will lose". For the sake of power, they also lost a lot of things unintentionally. Maybe someone really achieved a high status in the end, but in his twilight years, he found sadly that he had lost more precious things such as friendship and family affection.
Another example is 'greedy'. The so-called "vain name, vain name", the "name" originally meant vain spiritual honor. However, there are many people who do their best or even at any cost for this' false name'. I think, living in the so-called "information age", you should feel more strongly about "greedy" than us immortals. In today's human society, there are too many people who dream of becoming famous. In order to become famous, many people do whatever they can. For example, 'movie star'. This popular 'film and television star' is so beautiful, everyone is cheering and hugging, and has attracted the attention of various media. Many people just like this feeling of 'world attention'. This can be regarded as a spiritual need. Of course, what's more, they are envious of the rich, luxurious, decadent and depraved lives of 'film and television stars'. They want to become "film and television stars" because they are running for the money that is falling one after another. This money aspect belongs to the material level again. Of course, for people with independent thinking, it is often difficult to distinguish between 'material needs' and 'spiritual needs'. Not only have a glamorous and luxurious affluent life, but also can satisfy the spiritual needs of vanity, so there are many people who are willing to do everything in order to become famous. What shame, what etiquette, all fuck off. Ever since, all the crazy behaviors appeared. There will always be people flocking to such ugly acts as selling one's body, undressing in public, sensationalism, malicious slander, spreading rumors and so on. This is still in the human world, they are already so crazy. If you go to the underworld, you can imagine what a dead soul with this kind of thought will look like.
'Fame and fortune, fame and fortune', such a simple word, but too many people are fascinated by it. Alas, in your current society, how many people can truly detect 'fame and fortune'. Don't blame the world for being too crazy, just blame people for being greedy! " The land father-in-law, who was feeling infinitely emotional, suddenly noticed the sharp gaze from the side, so he quickly said with a serious expression, "Okay, let's stop talking nonsense. It was precisely because the dead souls with 'obsession' and 'greed' were led over at the beginning, that's why there was such an unprecedented turmoil in the underworld. Of course, there are only a small number of people with 'obsession', while there are many people with 'greed'. ???Whether they are from the "obsession" group or the "greedy" group, they all have a common characteristic, that is, they want to return to the human world very strongly. Because, for the dead souls with "obsession", the relatives and lovers they care about are still in the world, and the only way for them to get rid of the infinite troubles and tortures of feelings is to return to the world; while the souls with "greed" , no matter the greed is material or spiritual, in the underworld, it is doomed that their "greed" will not be satisfied. The social composition of the underworld is completely different from that of the yang world. In the underworld, there is no way to 'make money', 'eat food', 'beauty', or 'become famous'. Of course, 'power' is still there. However, in the underworld, 'power' is completely equivalent to 'giving'. The greater the 'power', the greater the responsibility and therefore the more things that need to be done. There are quite magical laws in the underworld, and no mistakes are allowed in anything you do, otherwise you will be severely punished. Therefore, in the underworld, those who have 'power' have no money and status, no flattery and vanity, but only heavy responsibilities and tedious work. You said, do those souls who are "greedy for power" from the world dare to chase after the kind of "horrific power" that only pays without any rewards in the underworld? "Maybe it was too much to say in one breath, so in order to take a breather, Father Land asked me a very rare question. (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
