Chapter 31: Lightning Strikes the Corpse (1)

There is a small restaurant that is not too big on the edge of the market town dozens of miles away from Coffin Ling Village, because it is economical and affordable, people who come here to catch the market and do business will eat here, and the business is very hot.

This is also the trading place of the mountain walker like Chen Laogou and the blind Liu who collects the bank.

"Well, I'm calling you Master, this price is too low! We risked our lives and broke our heads to get out of that tomb. ”

After coming out of the bronze coffin tomb, the pigtail couldn't wait to find Liu Blind, and wanted to get the jade pendant and the night pearl that he finally brought out.

"You stinky boy, you go to the road to inquire, I'm notoriously unscrupulous and absolutely fair." didn't expect that he thought that he could be worth hundreds of thousands of things, but Liu Blind gave very little, which made Chen Xiaobraid's heart fall to the bottom in an instant.

"What's the matter, it's an antiquity from hundreds of years ago, you can't be shading me, are you?" This time I went to the bronze coffin tomb, and seeing that a golden sword was not brought out, I regretted the intestines of the pigtails.

"Looks like you really don't understand! Then as a teacher, I will tell you the doorway here. Chen Xiaobraid knew that Liu Blind would not play tricks on this, otherwise he would not have been in this industry for so long. Seeing that this master was going to give some advice, Chen Xiaobraid immediately calmed down and prepared to listen.

"Boy, there's a lot of doorway here. If you don't understand it, you will suffer a big loss in the future, and you will miss the baby in vain. "After Liu Blind abandoned the trick in his thirties, he began to do this bridge to the village, and the mention of this line really opened the conversation.

"Let's talk about the golden sword that you won't forget." Blind Liu also intended to teach Chen Xiaobraid, so he carefully talked about the golden sword that the pigtail didn't bring out.

What the blind man said was that the sword made into gold has been out of the meaning of self-defense and killing, and in ancient times, not only people who practiced martial arts would use the sword, but scholars and dignitaries would wear one.

This kind of sword generally has the name of the owner near the tunkou, and the user who can make it out of gold must be a person with a name and surname, and once the owner of the cultural relics is known, even if it is not a celebrity, the value is immeasurable.

"Therefore, it is no longer possible to estimate its value in gold alone." Therefore, according to Liu Blind's analysis, the value of that ancient sword would definitely exceed the value of the gold it used a hundred times.

"Ahh Don't say it, it's too heart-wrenching. ”

"Haha, don't worry, the heart-piercing is still to come! Let's talk about the two rolls of bamboo. ”

The blind man Liu said that in the antique shop, there is a saying of "a thousand words of gold", that is to say, if there can be recorded words on antiques and antiques, the price is sky-high.

Because most of our human history is speculated from historical records, inscriptions and oracle bones of various unearthed classics, and those bamboo tubes that record events and the wisdom of the ancients are more sought after, because they are likely to change history.

"So! The real value is the two rolls of bamboo. Boy, this is the reason why I don't understand how to miss the baby, and those two are not to mention millions! "Blind Liu's head is the Tao, and he is stupid to listen to the pigtails, how did he know that there are so many ways in this industry.

After listening to the last words of the blind man, the pigtail thought of millions of treasures passing by in front of his door, which made him, a person who regards money as his life, want to die.

"Okay, look at your little bit of talent, it's good to increase your knowledge." Chen Xiaobraid's crying attracted the sideways glances and discussions of the people around him, and Liu Blind had to comfort him. But this finally let Liu Blind know that the state of mind of this unpromising apprentice is really far from that of his father Chen Laogou.

"I'm telling you about this jade pendant." "How? This jade pendant must be worth a lot of money! As soon as he heard the blind man Liu talk about the jade pendant, the pigtail finally stopped crying.

"I touched this jade pendant, this dragon is not a dragon, ordinary people can also wear it. So I can't see any value in terms of style. "Liu Blind doesn't know what the pigtail thinks, it turns out that there are many dragon styles in the so-called ancient jade folk circulation, and it is not too much to say that it is rotten on the street, so the historical value is not high.

"Besides, this material, I knew it was Xiuyu as soon as I licked it, and it was not a good material, and the age could not reach the Han Dynasty, at most it could barely be counted as Liao." Liu Blind is worthy of being a good hand in the industry, although he can't see with his eyes, he knows the material and age of this jade pendant just by feeling it and licking it with his tongue.

There is also an old saying in the ancient jade line, called "ancient jade has no good jade", that is to say, the real ancient jade raw materials are not good, especially before Liao, but now people like the Hetian jade of the Yulong River and Kashgar River in Xinjiang, and even chase all kinds of seeds with skin color.

"So I'm afraid the value of this piece of ancient jade can't catch up with the current piece of good material with skin." It is precisely because of people's pursuit of materials on jade that there has been a topic in the jade industry in recent years that ancient jade is inferior to today's jade.

"Let's talk about the pearl of the night." The pigtail was convinced by what Liu Blind said, and he didn't speak for a long time, and Liu Blind took out the night pearl at this time.

"You know, people didn't have a permanent light source before, so they cherished this natural glow." Blind Liu said that this night pearl can be regarded as a treasure in ancient times, almost only the royal family can have it, and it is indeed worth ten thousand gold.

"But who likes this thing now? And it's sold all over the streets now. "And these kinds of things are no longer uncommon in modern times. In particular, in recent years, the mining of fluorescent minerals and the use of chemical fluorescent agents have been carried out. This so-called night pearl is in stock in almost every craft store.

"Good apprentice, learn more! Don't almost catch your life in the future, you haven't brought anything good out yet. According to Liu Blind, the two things that Chen Xiaobraid desperately brought out were really small compared to missing them in the tomb.

"Eh, why don't you speak?" Liu Blind was eating and drinking, and he was talking happily, but he didn't hear Chen Xiaobraid squeak for a long time. How did he know that his words made Chen Xiaobraid's whole soul washed away by the flood along with the treasure under the tomb.

"You kid is not okay, by the way, I'm going to go into the city to do a big deal, how about I take you with me?" Liu Blind knew that this kid was hit hard, so he couldn't keep persuading him, and threw out a new deal as bait, which finally made the pigtail recover a little spirit.

"What kind of sale? How much does it cost? ”

"A city guy asked me to deal with some, of course I won't give less."

"Wow! That has to go. ”

The pigtail grinded the price with Liu Blind again, and finally took off the two things, and Chen Xiaobraid's mood was better.

gave Da Gang some of the money from the sale, although Da Gang only wanted to take a thousand, but the pigtail still gave more, after all, this was two people who exchanged their lives for their lives, and they gave too little to be careful.

"Dad, I'm back." When I got home, it was nearly evening.

"Why is it listless, isn't it going well?" Chen Laogou knew that he would usually shout when he came back, "Your handsome son is back!" "If you look at the state of affairs today, you can see that things are not going well.

"Don't make fun of me! You don't know anything about me. Chen Xiaobraid also knew that he had led the ashes out of the horse, and of course his father would know about it.

"Here you go, it's 50,000 dollars." "Yo, that's a lot." He handed the plastic bag in his hand forward, and it contained the remaining 50,000 yuan from the sale of jade pendants and night pearls. In fact, it is said that this is a lot, but when I think that I missed out on millions, pigtails are not a taste in my heart.

"Don't think too much, just be fine." Chen Laogou didn't look at it much, took the heavy plastic bag and threw it into the house.

"Ahh Dad, you don't respect the fruits of my labor too much! Just throw it around. Seeing that his father threw the money in the corner, Chen Xiaobraid felt distressed, thinking how could he be so casual? What if you are stolen by a thief or bitten by a mouse! But after thinking about it, there was ash, so I didn't say the rest of the words.

"Boy, money doesn't diminish its value wherever it is placed, just like people." Chen Laogou has never attached great importance to money, according to Liu Blind, Chen Laogou also had a huge wealth back then, and the money was all put indiscriminately, and it has been the same for more than ten years.

"Well, I'm really powerless to argue with that. By the way, what about the Red Dragon? "For his father's attitude, the pigtail really can't accept it, so he can only comfort himself in his heart, hoping that one day he can have such a mentality.

"He's recuperating, and he'll be fine after a while. You don't change the subject, I heard that the corpse demon made you very embarrassed? ”

"Oh, Dad, you are so unlovable. It's really a pot that can't be opened. ”

In order to avoid embarrassment, Chen Xiaobraid could only use the red dragon to escape the topic, but he didn't think that Chen Laogou would not eat this set at all.

"Actually, I'm also very curious, why does that corpse demon still have sideburns and limbs that are so long." Chen Xiaobraid was helpless, so he had to find a chair to sit down and talk to his father about a few of his questions.

"If I'm not mistaken, the corpse demon is a lightning corpse." Chen Laogou has seen a lot of knowledge in his life, of course he understands, and he pointed out the origin of the corpse demon in one sentence.

"Dad, what is a lightning corpse?" "Lightning corpses, as the name suggests, are formed by the corpse transformation generated by lightning strikes." Pigtail had also heard his father talk about a lot of living corpse zombies, but this lightning corpse was the first time he had heard about it, so he asked about it.

"Let me tell you a true story that has been recorded in history." And Chen Laogou didn't rush to say it, but first told the pigtail a true recorded story about the lightning corpse.

The Qing Dynasty writer Ji Xiaolan's "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang" recorded such an incident in the "Rural Chronicles", there was a large family in Yangzhou at that time, and the family was rich and the courtyard was deep.

The elders of the family have all passed away, and only one old mother lives in the courtyard of this huge mansion.

Every day, there are subordinates who take care of the old man's daily life, but when Mrs. Li was eighty years old, the servant suddenly felt that the old lady had become very strange.

Because the old lady almost doesn't go out anymore, she stays in the house every day, not because she is not in good health, but because she is obsessed with burning incense and worshiping the Buddha, but the Buddha statue she worships is an evil god with a sharp-beaked monkey cheek.

Later, the old lady, who had always been a vegetarian and fasting, suddenly stopped eating ordinary household food, but asked her family to catch live birds and birds every day, and then eat them raw and chewed alive in the house.

This can frighten the whole house, how can a normal person eat birds and birds raw, but because she is the oldest in this family, no one dares to say anything.

This lasted for a whole year, and one day the old lady suddenly fell ill......

Because the family had money, almost all the famous Langzhong in Yangzhou City were invited to come and see, but in the end it was still not cured, and the old lady soon became angry.

One day, the old lady called her son and daughter-in-law to the bedside and said that she had one last word to instruct.

"When I die, don't bury me, but bury me in the backyard for a year, you know? Be sure to mortuary for a year! "I don't want to, the aftermath of the old lady's explanation is very different from the funeral records of the past dynasties.

"The coffin must be made of boxwood, and the ...... must be used" After explaining these words, the old lady died, and the family wanted to bury the family after the death to comply with the funeral aspirations, but the son of this family was very filial and the ancients were very obedient to the etiquette. The son followed his mother's last words.

In this way, the old lady's body was not put into the ancestral grave, but was parked in the backyard where no one usually goes.

But three months after the mortuary, a strange thing suddenly happened, one night, suddenly the clouds were overcast, and the rolling thunder had been hovering over the backyard of the house.

In the middle of the night, a sudden flash of lightning in the sky struck the old house that was resting in the backyard.

An earth-shattering thunder woke everyone up, and they all ran over to watch, only to see that the roof of the house had been struck by lightning and burst into flames.

"This ...... This is... Heaven splits monsters! "There was a year-old family member in the crowd, who saw that the sky was different, and suspected that there was a monster, but the others didn't believe it at all, but thought he was crazy.

Before the words of accusing the old man fell, a strange shadow suddenly jumped from the house to the destroyed roof.

When they saw the figure jump into the courtyard a few times, everyone was stupid, and some even collapsed on the ground in fright.

Because people saw that the monster that jumped up and down was none other than the dead old lady. But at this time, the old lady had become like an animal, and she looked very terrifying.

I don't know who shouted that there was a monster, and all the frightened and stupid family members woke up, and they fled screaming one by one.

However, the old lady who had changed her body did not chase after everyone, and when she saw that everyone had run away, she jumped on the fence with a leap of her body.

According to records, the old lady no longer looked like a person at that time, not only her facial features were distorted and changed, but even a lot of fluff and claws grew on her body, and she was a big civet cat.

People didn't dare to approach, but after all, they were the people who worked here, and they didn't dare to go far, so they could only watch from afar.

The old lady crouched on the wall and watched for about a stick of incense before turning and jumping out of the wall, and the clouds and lightning in the sky moved out of the wall.

That night, the old lady fled to Beishan, and the rolling thunder also chased all the way to Beishan, and then lost the trace of the old lady, some people said that they had seen the old lady on the mountain a few years later, and some people said that she was hacked to death that night.

"Dad, so the corpse change caused by lightning striking the corpse?" After Chen Laogou finished telling his son about the lightning corpse in ancient legends, it can be seen that the pigtail is still a little confused.

"I also encountered this kind of lightning corpse once back then." knocked the cigarette pouch and told the pigtail about an incident he had personally experienced when he encountered a lightning corpse.
