Chapter Seventy-Six: Disposing of the Magic Knife
Xu Lin was as Xuanxuan and I expected, he and Zhang Feifei had absolutely no hope, we chatted outside for a while, and when we entered the private room, we saw Xu Lin lying on the sofa, singing Zhang Feifei and Li Hongying.
After asking for a while, I found out that Xu Lin was not self-sufficient, but he wanted to be a hero despite the average amount of alcohol, and he shook his dice with Zhang Feifei, and after losing twelve in a row, it was like this.
I saw that the time was almost up, so the proposal was almost over, and Xuanxuan agreed, no matter how late it was, I wouldn't be able to go back to school, and it would be inconvenient to go to someone's house to live again.
After settling the account, I carried Xu Lin home, the distance is not close, but it is not difficult for me, practicing martial arts all year round has made my physical strength very good.
After breakfast the next day, I took the magic knife to Dongbao Temple, Monk Mingde has been looking for the magic knife for several months, if I don't tell him, I think Monk Mingde will continue to look for it, which is also too sorry for people.
I sent a message to Monk Mingde in advance, so when I arrived at Tohoji Temple, Monk Mingde also came back and was waiting for me with Monk Mingyu.
"Brother Dao, you said that you have found the news of the magic knife, is it true?"
"Of course it's true, the magic knife is here"
I nodded, and took out the magic knife at random, the magic knife was wrapped in layers of yellow curtains, and on the yellow curtain there were runes I had drawn, and on top of the magic knife, there were also layers of spell seals.
"It's really a magic knife, but it's different, I have a feeling of being frightened, feeling like this magic knife is about to break through and kill me"
Monk Mingde stretched out his hand and touched the magic knife, and there was a faint stinging sensation in his hand, and his heart was even more frightened, as if he was in some kind of danger.
"It feels like a hungry tiger looking at each other, Mr. Xuanji, can you tell me what is going on, why it has only been a few months, and this magic knife has changed so much"
"Do you remember what the magic of this magic knife is?"
"Naturally, I remember that it is to drink blood"
"That's right, it's to drink blood, after this magic knife was stolen, it was soaked in blood, human blood, those people bought off illegal underground blood sellers, and for several months day and night, the power of the magic knife increased day and night, and it became an extremely terrible murder weapon"
I nodded, according to the news that Senior Brother got from Li Jiuyou, in a few months, Li Jiuyou spent at least millions to buy a large amount of blood, so that the magic knife could drink blood unscrupulously, not counting the blood of pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks they provided.
So much so that when we were looking for Li Jiuyou to take revenge, in fact, Li Jiuyou was victorious, and the reason why I was killed was because I used the Heavenly Master's secret technique, if the senior brother didn't take me and take revenge himself, I'm afraid it would be terrible.
"Where are these demons?"
Monk Mingde was furious, knowing that this was a magic knife, and constantly raising it with blood, isn't this just raising monsters, this is a taboo in the rivers and lakes.
"The demon has been removed, about ten days ago, I haven't drunk blood from this magic knife for ten days, so the magic knife is extremely hungry and thirsty, and this phenomenon will continue to happen.
It's like us people, if you don't eat for a day, you're hungry, so at this time the attack power is the strongest, and you can become crazy in order to eat, and get through this crazy stage, which is its weak period, but I'm not sure how long it will take to starve to death, the previous construction site, you say it's about a hundred years."
I explained, it's been almost ten days, and the magic knife has been hungry for ten days, and it's starting to show some signs of madness.
"I don't know the specific time, but it must be a hundred years, Brother Dao, this magic knife can't starve to death for a hundred years, it seems that we still have to cross it."
"Yes, Mr. Li, you can't just seal it, then you can only use Buddhism to cross it."
"Two senior brothers, listen to the mystery, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate, one of my senior brothers said that this magic knife may not be able to be crossed at will"
"Why"
"The magic knife has a spirit, if you use external force to cross, I am afraid it will arouse the fierce resistance of the magic knife, and no one knows how much the magic of this magic knife is, it has not been able to play to the extreme for several months, I am afraid that it will backfire, and then your temple may be destroyed."
"This..."
Monk Mingyu and Monk Mingde were stunned, they hadn't reached the limit of drinking blood for months, how powerful this magic knife was.
"Brother Dao, do you know the origin of this magic knife?"
"I didn't know, there are many rumors of magic knives in history, but they shouldn't be very similar to this one"
"The magic knife that I don't know the origin is so powerful, Brother Dao, what do you mean to do with it?"
"Seal, starve it, wait until it is over the period of weakness before crossing it, and this matter must be kept secret, and must not be known to anyone, in case it is stolen again"
I nodded and replied, the magic knife is still very powerful, so it must not be stimulated, first starve and then speak, in a few years, when I am strong, I will destroy it.
"Brother Dao means that he wants to seal the magic sword in Toho Temple?"
"That's right, I don't have any real estate in Yangcheng, and I often have to go out, so my side is not the best place to seal, only your temple is the most suitable."
"The magic knife is ferocious, and suppressing the monster is my duty in Dongbao Temple, but suppressing the monster requires a treasure to be a formation, I don't know if Brother Dao has a suitable treasure"
"I have the treasure, but I also need to use it, I'm afraid I need to bother your temple for this matter."
I arched my hand and said, in fact, the Heavenly Master Seal is enough to suppress the Demon Knife, but I didn't do it, first, I really need the Heavenly Master Seal to use, and second, I have to give Dongbao Temple a chance, a chance to accumulate merit.
Zen Buddhism cultivates virtue, you need merit to be around, if everything is done by me, and Tohoji Temple is thankless, then they must have an opinion, it is better to give up this merit.
"Senior brother, suppressing monsters is a matter of immeasurable merit, I'm afraid we need to take out the treasure of the temple."
"As it should be"
"Brother Dao, I have a town temple treasure in Dongbao Temple, which is the relic of our respected teacher, and it has great merit and great creation, so this thing can be suppressed"
"Thank you two senior brothers, for removing a great harm in the world"
I hurriedly thanked him, and a high hat was immediately sent over, and the two monks were also happy.
Immediately we discussed the specific sealing techniques, opinions gradually unified, Dongbao Temple will come forward to create an iron box, the inside of the iron box engraved Buddhist scriptures, isolate the demonic energy, and then weld the iron box to death, and then hide the iron box in the Buddha statue of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, dig a pit on the pedestal, put in the iron box, and then cover, spread a cloth on it, the whole process will only be known to the three of us, so that you can ensure peace of mind.
After deciding, Monk Mingde and I immediately went down the mountain, found a small processing factory, and built an iron box, the iron box is very simple, it took a lot of time to engrave the Buddhist scriptures, and then put the magic knife in, and the monk Mingde also embedded a relic in the iron box, and it was already a day after it was done.
Then we went back to Dongbao Temple, and in the dead of night, the monk Mingde and I touched into the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and then used tools to dig out a few bricks on the pedestal, put the iron box in it, and resealed it with cement, and then spread cloth on it, and from the outside, it was absolutely impossible to see that there was anything in it.
"From today onwards, I will send monks in the temple to guard day and night, chant scriptures day and night, bless seals, and ensure that there is no worries, and our brothers and sisters will not leave the temple at the same time, there will be one person to guard"
"Thank you master, so the mystery will rest assured, the master stops, and the mystery goes."
After dealing with the matter of the magic knife, the monk Mingde sent me down the mountain, and when he left, he told me the strategy of Toho Temple, in short, he would never let the magic knife have another accident.
I didn't let the monk Mingde send me to the bottom of the mountain, and soon I went back home by myself, I went to the urban village, and then I washed and scrubbed again, and prepared to set up a stall in the evening.
Xu Lin told me that there is less stock up these days, because the business will not be very good, the reason is that everyone has just come back from the New Year, there has been a lot of eating and drinking, and the appetite has decreased, and most of them have come out with things at home, and these things will not come out to eat at will if they are not eaten, and the time will be as little as three days, and as much as half a month, and then it will slowly improve.
Xu Lin's experience, I naturally want to listen, so I didn't have a lot of goods, and I could only sell five or six hundred when I almost sold them out.
In the evening, Xuanxuan came over again, there were not many people, and I didn't need her help, just let her come here to play, Xuanxuan didn't care, she went directly to the night market, and then bought a lot of food back.
Xu Lin didn't give up on Zhang Feifei yet, and wanted to learn about Zhang Feifei's situation from Xuanxuan's side, which made Xuanxuan very helpless, and it was useless to hint many times.
After a few days, I received a call from Gu Nian, who told me that her grandmother had officially announced to the family that she was going to live a tomb, and the location of the life grave was within the entire Yangcheng area, focusing on the Gu family's hometown.
No one can stop what Mrs. Gu wants to do, and Mrs. Gu is very smart and knows how to resolve resistance, she takes out a lot of benefits, and hints to the juniors of the Gu family openly and secretly, whoever helps her do this will get a lot of benefits.
So much so that Gu Nian's uncles and relatives were all moved, mobilized their personal connections, and went to find an excellent feng shui master, preparing to find a good feng shui acupuncture point in Yangcheng.
Although the Gu family is not as big as the Chen family, its strength in Yangcheng is also very strong, and coupled with the willingness to pay, it is natural that some feng shui masters are eager to do it.
Such a big movement made Gu Nian a little worried, because this was completely like trying to cause trouble to the Gu family, isn't this the old lady supporting the Gu family's infighting, in order to seize the interests of the old lady, it must be open and secretly fighting.
Although Gu Nian is favored by the old lady, her voice in the Gu family's system is really not too high, after all, her parents and elders are here, and these people have more authority than Gu Nian.
Seeing that the infighting was about to break out, Gu Nian didn't have time to blame the old lady for being confused, he just wanted to calm down this matter, and Gu Nian felt that the way to calm down this matter was to let me find a good acupuncture point first and block the back road of the others.
