Chapter Seventy-Seven: Zhentan Wood
Onsu-hoon!
I frowned, now on the street, there are still a lot of people, even if he wants to move, I can't make a move in front of everyone, but who knows what kind of Taoism he will do? I don't know anything about Taoism, and I'm afraid that he will do something bad to my soul, so I'd better run away. Now it has been more than three hours since Chi Tingyuan eliminated the starving ghosts, I don't know if he found that the ghosts he raised have been eliminated, and now he came to the antique street undoubtedly found some clues, and this clue is the yin qi that attracts ghosts! As Chi Tingyuan said, he will not let go of what is beneficial to Wen Shuixun.
I didn't look behind me anymore, and when I rushed to the side of the street, I stopped a taxi, got in the car and left, not wanting to face Wen Shuixun's evil way at all. Fortunately, he didn't come with him, and he didn't let the Thai B three-eight car follow me, and I breathed a sigh of relief in the car, but with Wen Shuixun's ability and doing things for the public, it was not difficult for him to find where I lived, and it was unnecessary to follow me.
However, just as I was breathing a sigh of relief, I looked up and saw a ghost rushing into the car from the side, right on my right. This ghost is black, his whole face looks like torn socks, his whole mouth is black and hollow, and he bites me without any ambiguity, and that yin qi gives me a feeling similar to that of the starving ghost I met before, I am scared, all I can do is block, but what do I use to block? In a hurry, I can only use the mineral water carton that I am still holding to block, and the "useless" resistance is the only way I can resist now, and I am ready to be hurt, so "Ah--" said with a prolonged sharp voice, just like fighting with people, but in the eyes of ordinary people, I am fighting with the air.
"Uhh---!h
"Whew!"
It was supposed to be me screaming, but soon I heard a terrible ghost scream, and the sound of the car brakes.
The driver's eldest brother turned around and said anxiously: "What happened?!" ”
“......”
It's rare that this big brother didn't take me for a fool and thanked him. But I don't know why the ghost just now had a terrible scream, I quickly opened my eyes, looked around quickly, and didn't find any trace of the ghost just now, and then I saw the driver's eldest brother in front of him with a puzzled look, and then this puzzled look became deeper...... After getting deeper, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, his eyes widened, and scolded: "Crazy! ”
“......”
This scolding made me scold all my fears, and I quickly apologized to my eldest brother. The car started again, and I sat honestly in the car.
It was strange just now, how could that ghost suddenly disappear when it came at me so violently? Besides, his screams were so terrible, he must have suffered some kind of injury. What could I do to hurt a ghost so badly? No, some are just Chi Tingyuan in the jade in the chest, presumably she saved my life. Sure enough, I had to eat soft rice at a critical time, she didn't speak, I could feel a slight coolness on the jade on my chest, this coolness proved that she was fine, because the driver's eldest brother in front of me looked at me from the rearview mirror with a neurotic look, so I didn't talk to Chi Tingyuan, so as not to be pulled directly to the psychiatric hospital by the driver's eldest brother who felt that I was sure of what to do with the air, that would be bad, I still have to pay attention to it in someone else's car, and ask Chi Tingyuan when I get home.
"Ding~"
When I was in the car, my mobile phone rang, it was a call from Han Fatzi, and I quickly answered it.
Han Fatzi's voice came from the phone, "Brother Chen, where are you, I'm at your house now, I got a lot of useful things from Brother Tang's siblings, but you can't go back to your house now, you go to the café we often go to, I'll wait for you over there." ”
"I'm going back home now, what's going on in my house?" I was naturally happy when he got the news, but he said that there must be something special going on in my house when I don't want to go home, and it is not difficult to guess that something may have happened to my family. What happens in broad daylight? I can't think of it. You must know that I don't have much money, and I can rent a store by relying on the money I get for Huang Kun, a total of 450,000 yuan, although this money is a lot, but I haven't had any money in my pocket recently, and this money will always be spent, so I don't want anything to happen to my store.
"I'll tell you more later, anyway, don't go back." Han Fatzi's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Okay."
I can't help him if he's so persistent, so I still listen to him in order to avoid something really bad from happening. I hung up the phone and asked the driver's eldest brother to take me to the café in the center of the county, this brother probably because I blocked the ghost just now made him think that there was a problem with my divine realm, so I walked a few kilometers and said that it cost twenty-five yuan, you must know that I can take his car to the city at this price, but there is no need to argue with him, so I directly scanned the code and paid two hundred and fifty cents......
After getting out of the car, I didn't see Han Fatzi's car, it is estimated that he has not arrived, and it is not waiting for him outside, so I walked into the café with the cardboard box in my hand, because I went up to the second floor to find a quiet location, and sent a message to Han Fatzi, telling me that I had arrived.
"Chi girl."
Seeing that there was no one around, he put the cardboard box on the seat next to him and asked to his chest. I have something to ask her, it's about that ghost just now, I'm worried that she was hurt trying to save me again, and I feel like I'm a burden, and it's too hard for her.
"What's wrong?" Her voice came from within the jade.
"You saved me again just now, thank you." My sincere gratitude, the greatest kindness is undoubtedly the grace of saving my life, she has saved me again and again, if she is a person, I can only repay her kindness to me by making a personal promise to her. Unfortunately, she is a ghost, so I can only say thank you to her, and at most burn two incense candles for her.
"I didn't save you, you saved yourself." He replied.
I:?
I don't really understand what she means, I saved myself? It's impossible, I don't have the ability to deal with ghosts, and I don't have any tricks to deal with ghosts that can hurt people, so how can I save myself? Besides, the ghost screamed miserably, obviously because he was hit by something...... But Chi Tingyuan didn't have a reason to deceive me, she didn't save me once or twice, and one more time was not a special thing, so I paid attention to the mineral water carton on the seat next to me, looking at the handsome Wang Moumou star, that smile was really handsome, could it be that he was too handsome to scare the ghost away? , there must be something in the box that is harmful to the ghost!
"What the hell is it?"
I muttered to myself, leaned over and looked.
It was also at this time that Chi Tingyuan's voice came out anxiously from the jade, "Put the jade away from it, just because the things inside are so oppressive that I can't talk to you, this righteous aura of suppression is not ordinary, and you have bought good things." ”
Listening to me, I was naturally stunned, and then I was overjoyed! There was something in the box that had an unusual repressive aura for Chi Tingyuan, she didn't say much, but it was obvious from the fact that she couldn't come out of the jade and speak. I didn't expect to pick up the treasure again this time, such good luck really had to make me happy, and it was the treasure that I picked up the treasure that "repelled" the ghost who wanted to do something wrong just now and saved my life. Which is the treasure? I'm a little confused.
Chi Tingyuan probably also saw my doubts, and said unhurriedly, "When I was in that shop just now, when the boss took out the box, I already felt the Dao qi inside, and I wanted to tell you, but its repressive breath made me unable to breathe. This thing is actually despised in the Dao market, really have eyes and don't know Taishan, this time you can be regarded as getting a good thing without my guidance, that dark red shocking wood is the Tao. ”
Shocking? Could it be that she was talking about the "board" that I thought was before?! Because Chi Tingyuan was afraid of this thing, I didn't take it out directly, and I didn't expect that the things that I had disliked before were actually really useful things. I have indeed heard of these three words, but this thing is the wood used by officials in the ancient government to shoot cases, how can it be a Taoist weapon, I didn't understand it, so I asked.
"The world is shocked, from the king to the minister; The king has jurisdiction over the civil and military affairs, and the civil and military affairs have jurisdiction over the people; The saint preaches Confucianism together, and the heavenly master frightens the ghosts and gods; The monks talk about Buddhism together, and the Taoists persuade Xuanmen together; A piece falls in the hands of the rivers and lakes, and it flows in all directions to persuade the world. The term 'Shocking Wood' is just a general term, not something that only officials can have, and different Shocking Trees have different functions and different names......"
It's okay not to ask, but as soon as I asked, I got an obscure explanation, and I didn't expect that there were so many things to say about the little shocking tree. As Chi Tingyuan continued, I knew the different sayings of these eight kinds of shocking wood, which are divided into gentian, Fengxia, operation, tiger power, shocking, precepts, town altar, and prudence eight kinds, and what we ordinary people know is the shocking wood used by the county officials, and it is precisely because of the most popular that we call this shape of wood a total of shocking wood, according to the words of Chi Tingyuan, it is caused by the lack of culture of our world. The emperor has a piece, named Zhenshan River, also known as gentian, a shot of the four seas are shaken, meaning the supreme right; The queen has a piece, named Fengxialuo, which means the mother of the world, and the sky is full of light; The prime minister has a piece, named Zuo Chaogang, also known as Strategy, which means that under one person, Fuzuo Chaogang; There is a piece of military generals, named Tiger Courage, also known as Tiger Might, which means to lead the three armies to boost the military might; The county magistrate has a piece called Jingtang or Jingtang Wood, which is shocking and is the most common of us; The monk has a piece called the precepts, which purifies the heart and awakens the mind; The Taoist priest has a piece called Zhentan, which drives away ghosts and demons; There is a piece in the lang, called prudent or cautious, calm and calm, and rejuvenated. These eight kinds of shocking wood are different, as big as the emperor, and as small as the market Langzhong. The selection of materials is very particular, based on strong and durable, mostly high-grade mahogany with hard texture and delicate texture, such as sandalwood, sour branches, huanghuap, wenge, boxwood, etc., and the sound is loud when knocking on the table. However, in the north, mulberry, jujube, and black locust wood are also used to make shocking wood. And the piece I have in Chi Tingyuan's opinion is the town altar wood that belongs to the Taoist priests, the town altar wood made of pineapple flowers!
I would know if I said the word "Zhentan Wood" directly, but it was the first time I had seen what Zhentan Wood looked like, so at first I thought it was a piece of wood that others were too lazy to carve...... However, Chi Tingyuan said that this piece of wood is not sandalwood, which I actually guessed correctly, and sure enough, there was a sandalwood disdain to put on it and polish it and then forge the ancient.
This time I made a big profit!
Let's not talk about how much this Taoist weapon is worth, just such a piece of yellow rosewood is worth almost five hundred yuan, so it is not a loss.
