In the 42nd episode, I finally understood how much Fan Xiao loves Baguio.

The road and destination of Baguio's resurrection

There have been many foreshadowing of Baguio's resurrection, but all failed. Specifically: the elixir of immortality in the treasure house of the Emperor of Heaven. The necromancy of Miao wizards. Xiao Huan's self-taught soul-collecting technique. Xiaobai's exploration of witchcraft inheritance. The astrolabe reversed Gan Kun's ability to calm his soul.

One: Let's talk about Baguio's state before she disappeared.

Before Baguio disappeared, the body was on the cold stone bed, and the whole soul was in the acacia bell. It should be noted that Baguio's soul has been completely collected. (See "Evocation" and other chapters for details. )

Now Baguio's soul has been saved by exorcist from the depths of Jiuyou, and Baguio with a complete soul is likely to have regained consciousness. However, the acacia bell itself has the ability to lock the soul, and Baguio's soul can't get out if it is locked inside, or it can only come out by accident.

It was a coincidence that the woman who appeared in the Ice Stone Room when she returned to the Ghost King team from southern Xinjiang temporarily escaped from Baguio, the soul of Acacia Bell. (For details, see Chapter II and Chapter III "Demon" and "Secret" in Part VII. That woman can't be someone else's, and other statements simply won't work. This is the first appearance of Baguio's soul and the only time it has been described in detail.

Another time, which is more mysterious, is when Ghost Li was just taken away by Mr. Ghost and went to the Ghost King's room to realize the reincarnation.

Please see the original excerpt:

The white chill is floating like a light smoke, and it gradually looks a little hazy, like a shadow that has been dreaming for too long, looming in the dream. "Ding!" Suddenly, a very clear voice rang in the thin but clear room tied with ice stones. Invisible sound waves passed like a breeze, and the light floating in the stone house was like fog and cold smoke, and everyone suddenly trembled slightly. "Ding!" There was another light sound, but this time it was clearer. The voice came from Baguio's white hands clasped together and placed on the small acacia bell. In the stone room, the original light smoke seems to be drifting faster, but when the bell bounces back on the surrounding stone walls, it gives a pleasant echo. The first sound followed by the second is endless, interwoven into a quiet and reverberating music, which is somewhat joyful, somewhat sad, somewhat passionate and somewhat sighing. "Ding!" The bell that rang for the third time suddenly rose. In an instant, all the white smoke in this stone room flowed back, like the waves of the sea of clouds rolling up and down, and a long whistle opened the stone, breaking the clouds straight up, with a faint golden light, and suddenly came out from Baguio's hands. In the stone room, thunder and wind came faintly. Just a moment later, it seems vaguely, the clear voice slowly falls, and the golden light looming between Baguio's fingers gradually fades. The bell slowly disappeared in the ice stone house, and the white smoke returned to normal and floated gently, as if nothing had happened just now, leaving no trace.

(See Chapter 8 "Waiting" in Part 8 for details. )

This description gives people the feeling that Baguio's soul is about to break out of the acacia bell, but it is finally suppressed by the acacia bell because of its lack of stamina.

Finally, when the ghost king died, you heard the bell coming from the ruins ... (see: the last chapter of the eighth part, "Postscript") The description here is fascinating, but after all, it is only sound, so you can't make too much speculation.

As a result, Baguio's soul became, even regained its reason, but was forced to be trapped in the acacia bell.

Then why did Baguio regain her sanity, but she didn't recognize Fan Xiao at that time? Since I will nod to Fan Xiao, why not continue?

Show up and explain the situation to Fan Xiao?

I can only make two inferences about this:

Category I: Baguio first appeared at that time. After years of deep sleep, his understanding of God is still incomplete. Seeing someone enter the stone house, he was afraid or didn't want to be seen for other reasons, so he returned to Hehuanling. Or because it has been some time since I left Albizia Bell, I was forcibly detained by Albizia Bell. (The reasons for these two statements are not sufficient, so I won't explain them too much. )

The second category: Baguio felt hopeless at that time and didn't want Fan Xiao to run for herself. Or Baguio knows that his resurrection is fate, and he needs to pay a great price, and he doesn't want to be implicated in Fan Xiao. Although this statement is far-fetched, it can barely be justified. )

First of all, the ghost world does exist, which can also be seen from Zhu Xianxu. Before the death of the great wizard in this article, he said, "Jiuyou ... is not this ..." And Zhou Yixian said, "Although the soul-collecting technique has the power to collect souls, it has always been a different technique. Dangerous and unpredictable, disturbing ghosts and gods, is a taboo in the ghost world. Do you want to live? Even if you have this ability, where will you find his soul? Are you going to look for it in the endless ghosts of Jiuyou? " Both reflect this.

As for Baguio, she used the "infatuation curse", so she "lived for seven generations and fell into Yamaraja forever". His soul must have been to the underworld. In this case, she probably knows that it is difficult for her to be resurrected, and her resurrection is against the cycle of heaven.

And if you want her to come back to life, you must pay a great price. This can be seen from the resurrection of Xiao Huan's wild dog and the loss of ten years of life. Wild dogs have been killed, and their souls are still nearby. They have not fallen into the ghost territory of Yamaraja. But even so, it is extremely expensive. Judging from exorcist's rescue of Baguio, although exorcist was in a bad state at that time, his evocation was definitely stronger than Xiao Huan's. And exorcist lived up to expectations and saved Baguio's soul from the land of nine secluded places. But at this time, the wizard died, probably because he was killed by the "Nine Ghosts".

Combined with the guidance of Xiaobaijing Heimu, it can be inferred that the extinction of the ancient witch clan has a great relationship with its spiritualism passed down from generation to generation. Probably because his people wantonly used the "soul-collecting technique", they committed the taboo of the ghost world, violated the heaven, and were punished by the heaven, so that all people were spared. (For details, see Chapter 23 "Sorrow" in the seventh part) And judging from Xiaobai's later practice, he didn't want to tell Fan Xiao about "spiritualism" because he was afraid that Fan Xiao would pay the price for violating heaven.

Therefore, for various reasons, Baguio is likely to think the same as Xiaobai. I don't want Fan Xiao to suffer for my own resurrection. Don't forget, Baguio died for Fan Xiao. She valued Fan Xiao more than her own life. She sincerely hopes that Fan Xiao can live happily. ...

She may never know that at that night, in that ancient well, Fan Xiao saw herself and really loved herself. ...
