What is a ghost foreigner?

People die like ghosts, ghosts die like cockroaches, cockroaches die like hope, and hope that death can be saved.

Vernacular translation: Normal people become ghosts when they die. If the ghost dies again, it will become enamel. Then he died again, which became a hope. After another death, it became a savage. The final death is microscopic, which means nothingness, that is, nonexistence.

This sentence comes from Youming Road during the Liu and Song Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties.

The legend of ghosts

According to legend, ghosts will die, so people keep dying, but hell is still not full of ghosts:

If you don't burn incense and sacrifice, ghosts will become ghosts first. Ghosts will look for incense everywhere, and when incense is not enough to maintain their bodies, they will attack other ghosts.

In ancient times, ghosts were afraid of evil spirits, and the word evil spirits could also be regarded as evil spirits. Incense can not be completely maintained after sacrifice, Yan Xi will lose his body, slowly lose his voice, and completely become nothingness.
