Chapter 293: Yangmu

According to the traditional theory of yin and yang, everything in the world is divided into yin and yang, the sun is yang, the moon is yin, and in the same way, trees are also divided into yin wood and yang wood.

Represented by soul-nourishing wood, when the tree absorbs enough yin qi and changes the nature of the tree, it becomes a yin wood, of course, there is also a kind of tree, such as locust wood, which is born to attract yin, which is also a kind of yin wood, but locust wood often does not reach the level of soul-nourishing wood and will be cut down.

And the same is true for yang wood, when a tree for some reason, after absorbing enough yang energy, it can be called yang wood, most of the yang wood is hardwood, such as teak, which can be used to make warships in ancient times.

However, there is an extreme kind of yang among the yang trees, that is, lightning strike wood, especially the kind of trees that grow on the cliff face, are extremely vulnerable to lightning strikes.

Generally speaking, when a thunder comes down, the tree is chopped to death, and if it does not die, it will be burned to death, but things are not so absolute, and there are often some lucky people, and when spring comes, it will sprout and grow again, which is the lightning strike wood.

Lightning wood absorbs the power of thunder, yang energy is at its peak, it is definitely a treasure, whether it is Buddhism or local religion, it is believed that lightning wood can ward off evil spirits, so it will use lightning wood to make some things, such as bracelets, beads or Buddha statues, etc., resulting in the price of lightning wood has been high.

And among the lightning strikes, there is also a more extreme existence, that is, the result of a large number of cumulative times, a lightning strike can often take the life of most of the vegetation, two or three times, not to mention, if it can reach nine times, then it is really rare in the world, and it is also a treasure in the world.

This kind of nine-stage lightning strike wood is really too precious, for thousands of years, the number of times it has appeared is very small, and even many people have never heard of it, and once it appears, it is also a sky-high price.

"Yangmu, Mr. An wants the Wood of the Sun, so it should be the Lightning Strike Wood, with Mr. An's ability, will he not be able to get the Lightning Strike Wood?"

Liu Laodao hesitated for a moment and then said, although the lightning strike wood is precious, it is really not a priceless treasure, as long as there is money, it can definitely be bought, and in terms of quantity, it is much more than the soul nourishing wood.

"Ordinary lightning strike wood is naturally available, but the lightning strike wood I want is a bit demanding, the legendary nine-stage lightning strike wood is unthinkable, but I want at least six stages"

"Sixth Stage, this is also difficult to find, and the value is higher than that of Soul Nourishing Wood"

Liu Laodao squinted his eyes and said, if a thousand trees on the edge of the cliff will be struck by lightning, then maybe only a few trees will survive, a thousand lightning-struck trees will be struck by lightning again, and there will be no more than a hundred that will survive, and those who can be struck by lightning six times are also very few.

And this is still calculated in terms of mathematical probability, the real situation is difficult to say, and it is normal for a tree not to survive, in short, the six lightning strikes are also extremely precious, and it has exceeded the value of the same size of soul nourishing wood.

"I know, this kind of thing has to be known by those who are destined, but it's a pity that I'm a person with a shallow fortune, I haven't found it for a long time, so I pinned my hopes on Liu Daochang, if Liu Daochang can find it for me, I will send my hands to the soul nourishing wood, and make up the difference, my treasure, you can choose any one, converted into cash, or "

Mr. An said bitterly, how could he not know that the real lightning strike wood was difficult to find, if it was easy, he would have found it a long time ago, in fact, he spent a lot of effort, but no clues were found.

"We still need to discuss this matter again, and we don't have any news of lightning strikes now."

Liu Laodao replied, "We are not timber merchants, nor are we collectors, so we definitely don't know about the existence of these timbers."

"Okay, Daochang Liu, please, but Daochang Liu, the sooner this matter is, the better, the faster the time, I am willing to bid more"

"Understood, that's all for today, farewell"

Liu Laodao nodded, agreed, and then we went out to leave.

"What do you think, old man?"

"I didn't pay attention to it before, but now that I think about it carefully, we have revealed a lot of clues, the key is that we know very little about this Mr. An, and he may have something behind him."

"Yes, I also found out that the strings of beads he was wearing on his body did not seem to be amber or beeswax, but Bodhi, maybe it was still Bodhi who had been enlightened by a monk."

"That's interesting, what the hell is it, it needs to be suppressed with the most masculine and rigid yang wood, and depending on what he means, maybe it should be made into a string of beads and worn on the body."

"That old man, why don't you let Chen Menghan try it at night?"

"No, we don't know the depth of this person, it's better not to startle the snake, this matter is just a deal for us, I don't want to make a fuss"

"But old man, where can we find Yangmu for him, is it difficult for us to go over the mountains and mountains to find it, that is too inefficient."

I'm a little unhappy, that guy is giving us a problem, this kind of yang wood is not easy to find, if he can buy it, he will buy it himself, if you want to find it, it will be too difficult.

"It's hard to find, but it's not necessary to buy it, have you forgotten Zhang Fat?"

"Zhang Fatzi, he's not missing, no, he's definitely not missing, but he's hiding"

As soon as Liu Laodao mentioned Zhang Fatzi, I immediately remembered that there had been no news of Yao Tiejun for a long time, when we went to Qinling to find Zhang Fatzi, we finally learned that he was hiding in the mountains of Qinling.

Later, Yao Tiejun organized people to look for it in the mountains, and there was no news since then, more than a year has passed, and there is no news, indicating that Zhang Fatzi is still alive, otherwise with Yao Tiejun's violent temper, he would have avenged Zhang Fatzi.

"Well, find a way to contact Zhang Fatzi, their family has been a businessman in the underworld for generations, there must be such a strange thing, maybe he has the news that he has a soul nourishing wood directly in his hand."

"Yes, but, this Mr. An's side..."

"I haven't promised him yet, what are you afraid of, even if you agree, you can't find him and eat us."

"That's what I said"

I nodded, and there was no stipulation that we must trade with him, not to mention, he is also a second-tier dealer in the middle, and you made such a difficult request, and you didn't allow me to think of another way?

After I went back, I went to contact Yao Tiejun, but the phone never worked, and then I contacted Sun Youle, they are both a second generation, and they should have contact information.

Sun Youle didn't contact Yao Tiejun directly, but he promised to help me contact him as much as possible, and Yao Tiejun couldn't disappear directly, and there were countless people involved behind him.

The next day, Liu Laodao gave Mr. Na'an an an answer, not directly affirming, but saying that he would try his best to find it, and at the same time Liu Laodao revealed another meaning.

Mr. An is looking for Yangmu, nothing more than trying to suppress something, what if Yangmu can't find it, look for us, we are Taoist priests, the town house is a small meaning, exorcism and demon suppression is also our profession, just our master and apprentice, more effective than any Yangmu,

Mr. An did not directly agree, it should involve some privacy issues, but he did not say anything to death, saying that he would contact us if necessary.

You can't hang yourself from a tree, we have looked for it from somewhere else in addition to looking for the soul nourishing wood on Mr. An's side, so we continue on the road.

But after we couldn't find a second message, we received a call from Yao Tiejun, who asked me what I was looking for him.

I told me the intention of coming, if Zhu is not looking for him, but looking for Zhang Fatzi, we need Zhang Fatzi's help here.

"Jin Yang, I'm sorry, it's inconvenient for Fat Zhang to show up now"

"It's been more than a year and it's not convenient, and that matter hasn't been resolved?"

"Yes, it's very troublesome, now Zhang Fatzi needs to keep a low profile, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable"

"But things on my side are also very urgent, I need something to return favors, very important favors"

"Is there no way to replace it?"

"Not yet, we've been looking for more than a month and can't find it"

"Give me a day and I'll give you an answer"

"Yes"

Then Yao Tiejun hung up the phone, Liu Laodao saw that my face was not good-looking, and asked me what was going on, I told the original thing more carefully, and I just told Liu Laodao that it was a very simple process.

"You little rabbit cub, you are dizzy, you dare to mix this kind of thing, aren't you afraid of death?"

"What's wrong?,Isn't it just pushing the back picture?,What's there?"

"Push back picture, do you still know push back picture, do you know why push back picture has been called a banned book for generations?"

"Isn't it just that the back picture is a prophecy book, predicting a lot of things"

"You know a fart, pushing the back picture is a basket, anything can be loaded into it, you say he is a prophecy is a prophecy, you say it is the mandate of heaven is the mandate of heaven, this thing is useless to us, for people with bad intentions, it is a sharp weapon, this matter involves some power struggles, don't touch me in the future, dare to touch it again, break your legs"

"Okay, I didn't touch it."

I hurriedly agreed, in fact, I realized that this was the case, so I decided not to pursue it further, at this time Liu Laodao repeatedly told me, I naturally don't care about anything.

"I'm not scaring you, Tui Beitu is a blood book, an ominous book, and countless people have died for it for thousands of years, it's not something we can touch, you know"

"I know, don't be verbose, I won't touch it for a long time, Yao Tiejun asked me to go to the north less, I haven't set foot in the north for more than a year"

"It's good to know, especially when you went to the Qinling Mountains, don't set foot in a few years, you know?"

"You can't just go for the rest of your life."

"Look at the wind"

"What the wind is blowing"

"Yao Tiejun, that guy is holding back a big deal, and when he appears again in a high-profile manner, it will mean that the matter is over, he didn't appear in a high-profile manner, don't follow the blind mixing, otherwise you don't know how to die"

"Got it"

I nodded, Yao Tiejun is indeed the key figure in this matter, and it is not wrong to look at his wind direction.

However, the next day, Yao Tiejun called again, and he could let me meet Zhang Fatzi, but I had to meet in secret, and the location was in Yunnan Province.

So Liu Laodao and I secretly went to Yunnan Province, and soon after arriving, Yao Tiejun's people came to connect, and then they took us out of the country secretly, the place was Burma, where I had been to, and returned to the territory of Mr. Yang, an old acquaintance.
