Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Bronze Cup

After saying goodbye to Mr. Shi and Jin Ying and Yu Qian, he left the main hall with all the disciples, and he would often come and go to the main hall in the future, which was also a helpless choice. Everyone in the Zhongzheng line is in a different mood, such as Gao Huai, Zhu and others are excited, as if gaining power is their life pursuit.

Lu Yunzhi's mood is very heavy, he has not yet come out of the shadow of Du Hai's death, and he also pities Zhu Qiyu, because in his opinion, the emperor's power is supreme, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to do, and even coerced by the ministers.

After everyone returned to the mansion of Zhongzheng Yimai, Mr. Shi instructed Han Yueqiu and the others to rest, and they were exhausted by the fighting and running all the way, and everyone saluted and then retreated.

The disciples ranked in the top fifteen on the Zhongzheng lineage have their own separate residences, so that no one can disturb them to refine the Dharma instruments on their own, or refer to books to study the truth, and most people will choose to choose a separate house to live in, after all, it is still a little inconvenient for multiple people to live together. For example, Gao Huai ranked tenth, Qin Rufeng ranked twelfth, and moved out of the second and first rooms before leaving Timur, and sometimes he likes to show off when he lives alone, which is something to boast about.

But Lu Yun's position is seventh, Qu Xiangtianxing is eighth, and Fang Qingze is eleventh, except for Zhu Jianwen, who ranks eighteenth in the door, they are all qualified to live alone, but everyone has a very good relationship, and they are not willing to live separately, so they still live in the third room.

Several people returned to the room and suddenly snored loudly, and slept in the dark, indeed they were tired, especially last night's all-night running and the grief in their hearts for Du Hai's death, it can be described as physical and mental exhaustion, this sleep slept until the same pulse junior came to call them for dinner.

The hall was empty, except for the disciples of Zhongzheng who stayed in Beijing, such as Cheng Fangdong and Shi Wentian, the two Xie brothers and Wang Yulu who followed Mr. Shi back to Beijing, if you want to say that it is Han Yueqiu and other people, the rest are mostly in Wei County by Han Yueqiu ordered to drive back those disciples who have not learned their arts, originally they followed Mr. Shi to Timur to visit and study, but they did not expect to experience the attack of the Soul Eater Beast along the way, the harassment of Mongolian ghosts and witches, etc., at that time Fang Qingze euphemistically said that let them go back to Beijing to help the master, There were also some people who were not very happy, but they had to listen to Han Yueqiu's words, thinking about Fang Qingze's words today, but they saved their lives, otherwise they would have died tragically like Du Hai and the others.

Thinking of this, these people couldn't help but feel grateful to Fang Qingze and Han Yueqiu, who gave the order. The hall instantly lacked Du Hai's loud voice, as well as the laughter and scolding of more than a dozen brothers of the same lineage, it seemed that a few people were deserted, although the living people were hungry, they didn't have the heart to eat, and they were always mourning the dead souls.

Mr. Shi glanced at the disciples. Then he raised his voice and said, "Hurry up and eat, and after eating, I will take you to see the cause of Du Hai's death." After saying that, he took the lead in eating, and everyone picked up their chopsticks one after another, and the usual lively dinner ended in a hurry in this extremely depressing and quiet atmosphere.

In the Valhalla, Mr. Shi stood in front of the soul coffin, and all the disciples followed behind him, Mr. Shi called softly: "Fang Dong, open the coffin in Yueqiu." Cheng Fangdong and Han Yueqiu stepped forward and opened the coffin lid together, Mr. Shi silently recited the decree in his mouth and then raised his right palm and put it on the top of Du Hai's head, and gradually a layer of frost on Du Hai's face subsided, Mr. Shi pinched Du Hai's mouth, and then took out a copper coin, and pulled a red rope on it to put the copper coin into Du Haikou.

The slender red rope came out of Du Hai's mouth and wrapped around Du Hai's head, Mr. Shi held the thread in his left hand, and stretched out his right hand to Cheng Fangdong and said, "Fang Dong, bring the Guyue Cup." Cheng Fangdong walked quickly to the wall full of all kinds of small signs engraved with birthdays, picked up a square cup from a table in front of the wall, and handed it to Mr. Shi.

The cup is made of bronze, which is different from the wine bottle used for drinking, and the jue and the like, which are boxy cups without feet and have a very strange shape, which is rare in bronze utensils. I saw that the square cup was engraved with a circle of simple patterns, and the cup was surrounded by vines cast in bronze, which looked vigorous and lifelike.

Lu Yunzhi got closer, looked into the cup, and saw a cup of liquid in the cup, but he couldn't see what was at the bottom of the cup, because the liquid seemed to be opaque and extremely reflective, looking into it was like a mirror, reflecting the mirror image in Valhalla. Fang Qingze whispered: "It's so clear, much better than a copper mirror, like a Western glass mirror." ”

Mr. Shi sighed and asked, "What is a glass mirror?" Fang Qingze replied: "Just like my Ming glaze, as early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, we made transparent glaze, named glass, but then it was lost and ceased to exist." During Timur's business experience, I found that Western merchants held glass recorded in ancient books, and on one side it was oiled with mercury or tin foil, although it was not as large as a copper mirror, but it was clearly recognizable several times better than a copper mirror. ”

Mr. Shi nodded and said, "It's a bit interesting, Qing Ze, find a glass mirror another day, maybe using this mirror to drive the mirror flower demon will be very powerful." Fang Qingze replied yes, but saw that Mr. Shi no longer answered, but used the red rope to wrap around the square cup, and then recited the words in his mouth, everyone did not know what he meant, only Lu Yunzhi knew what he said, and what the master read was in ancient language. I don't know what it means, and even Mr. Shi doesn't know, but he just reads it out according to the script, and it is this language used in the sect's heaven and earth technique, so when he fought against Shang Yang in the thunder war, everyone didn't understand it.

After Mr. Shi wrapped the red rope, he took out a small gold medal from his bosom with his free hand, and then put it on the edge of the soul coffin, and placed the bronze square cup on top of the gold medal, beckoning the disciple to come closer.

I saw a picture gradually reflected in the cup, when people die, Lingzhi will record what happened before death, so everyone rushed back to Beijing at night to ensure that Lingzhi does not disappear, Lingzhi can not be trapped with spells, because once this is the case, it is easy to be confused, so the record is not accurate.

In the mirror, Du Hai held a double knife to kill left and right, and dozens of ghosts and spirits rose around him, surrounding him to protect Du Hai, and from time to time he pounced on the approaching enemy troops, and for a while, the Wara cavalry was helpless. The junior disciples behind him did not have such good skills as Du Hai, although they were also one against ten, they were all scarred, and they still surrounded one person, using their own flesh and blood to protect the person sitting in the human wall, and the person's face became clearer and clearer It was Emperor Zhu Qizhen.

The rise of Du Hai's killing, after vigorously swinging a knife to cut off a galloping cavalry, he shouted at the enemy troops who gathered around, and the Wara cavalry heard Du Hai's shouting and was frightened and kicked back, Du Hai laughed when he saw the back of the sky, and was about to pull up Zhu Qizhen and rush out.

Suddenly, the ghosts around Du Hai gathered in the rear, only to see a few reddened first-class evil spirits fighting with the ghosts driven by Du Hai, Du Hai hurriedly turned his head, pushed Zhu Qizhen into the side of the junior disciples, and reflexively rushed towards those first-class evil spirits with his own knife, the steel gloves full of runes on his hands glowed faintly, who was stopping himself Could it be a ghost witch? Du Hai was puzzled.
