Chapter 21: The Iron Box
Zhang Guoyi and Aunt Chen looked at each other with wide eyes, especially Aunt Chen, as a wife, she didn't say a word, but the old song in front of her was a relative, and it seemed that it was quite close.
It turns out that this old Liu Tou is the first apprentice that Ma Zhenren accepted forty years ago, always feel good about himself, and is used to the life of the young master, he really can't stand the coarse tea and light rice in the Taoist temple, less than ten years, he told the master to go out of the teacher, Ma Zhenren did not stop him, but to be honest, this uncompetitive apprentice learned a half bottle of vinegar to slip away, and the master was very unhappy, although later the old Liu Tou always came back and Ma Zhenren set closely, but Ma Zhenren never looked at him with the right eyes, as the days went by, this old Liu Tou simply did not come, Ma Zhenren should have confiscated this apprentice, although the two did not tear their faces, they had no contact.
And at this moment, Lao Liu Tou can be said to have a bleak future, and he will be sentenced to 20 years in prison, which is too exaggerated for the 60-year-old Liu Tou, is it possible to die in prison? And at this time, Zhang Guozhong, the junior brother who suddenly appeared, also brought Zhang Guoyi, a Red Guard leader who called for wind and rain, obviously became the lifeline of Lao Liutou, isn't it just a broken knife, it's better than pulling out the old bottom...
According to Lao Liutou's instructions, Zhang Guozhong and Zhang Guoyi came to a deserted grave in the eastern suburbs overnight, and dug up a large coffin. Lift the lid of the coffin, the coffin full of antique treasures simply stunned Zhang Guozhong, I really can't imagine that my master called Huazi actually accepted such a wealthy apprentice, this coffin antique calligraphy and painting if it was taken overseas, it is not much of a problem to change to a European manor, but just a piece of Tang Yin's "Evil Diagram", is a priceless treasure, according to ancient records, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, officials below the fourth grade are not qualified to hang this painting. In addition, there are some blue and white porcelain vases from the Song Dynasty and a jade seated statue that looks like it was from the Tang Dynasty.
By the moonlight, Zhang Guozhong soon found a dagger about 7 inches long, according to the old Liu Tou, Zhang Guozhong this time can be regarded as wanting, this dagger is called "dragon scales", it was the old man Liu Ziwei when he was young when he spent five taels of silver from a tomb robber to buy, at that time it was to see that the dagger was the right size and sharp, with it on the body for self-defense, and later went to Beijing, to Rong Bao Zhai to frame the painting to give a gift to the Lord of Bellor, the old man who framed the painting looked at this dagger and praised it, saying that it was a first-class good product, Liu Ziwei treasured this dagger, and later this dagger was passed to the old Liu Tou, and the experts of the Cultural Relics Bureau were invited to identify it, and finally concluded that this dagger was the legendary ancient Chinese famous blade "dragon scale".
According to the "Classics" record: this "dragon scale" is the Wei prince Pi made people cast, I don't know which hero has been stabbed to death, according to the old Liu Tou's observation, the grievances of this dagger are far greater than those pig killing knives that slaughter thousands of lives in the meat factory (livestock also have grievances, but it is much smaller than people), inserted in the ground and even ants are three feet away and walk around, if it is not for the old man Liu himself to understand Maoshan technique, others dare to collect when they hear this description.
Listening to Lao Liu's half-blown and half-true description, this seems to be the only guy in the entire Tianjin who can overcome the tomb, this dagger is first and foremost, I am afraid that I have to find the tiger head used by Bao Gong back then.
Filling back the coffin and setting up the grave, Zhang Guoyi's frightened legs and stomach turned tendons, and it was the first time he came to the cemetery in the middle of the night to cry wolf, even if he was usually seven unconvinced and eight angry hooligan leaders, he was inevitably afraid.
After telling his younger brother to take care of Lao Liu, Zhang Guozhong trotted back to the village overnight.
Ma Zhenren looked at the dagger, and he couldn't put it down, this Ma Zhenren was a person who practiced martial arts, and he naturally cherished the famous weapon and blade, "You little king and eight lambs, where did you come from?" ”
"Master, I met my senior brother, he gave this..."
"Oh? The one who didn't make a living... Where is the scenery now? ”
"Senior brother, he... Squatting in prison..."Zhang Guozhong told him how he asked his younger brother for help and how he met Lao Liu Tou and how he got the dagger.
Hearing that the apprentice was squatting in prison, Ma Zhenren looked quite uncomfortable, and taught the apprentice who was squatting in prison, and the master's face was naturally gloomy, in fact, if he hadn't asked Captain Li to come over from the playground river brigade with a dead face, it would be similar to squatting in prison...
"What sin? You won't be shot, will you? ”
"Reselling cultural relics seems to be quite heavy, but it won't be shot, I've asked my brother to help me move around..."
"Reselling cultural relics..."Ma Zhenren smiled bitterly, this chaotic year, even if there are really cultural relics on hand, where to fall...
With a handy guy, Ma Zhenren has enough confidence, the Ming Dynasty Liu Chongde is at best the last descendant of the surrendering technique, and the Tao line is not comparable to any of the Yuan Dynasty's descendants, it can be seen from the situation of the Black Cloud Bureau and the Qingshui Bureau that this Liu Chongde does not have the ability to complete the three evil bureaus by himself, but must rely on the transformation of the original ancient tomb, and in the two days that Zhang Guozhong left, Ma Zhenren turned around the tomb of Zhao Le, Ma Zhenren felt that if Liu Chongde did not have the ability to complete the three evil bureaus, Then now this tomb is likely to be only a single game, if it is a single game, after all, there is a "pulse eye".
The "single game" of descending the tomb, similar to the tomb bureau of the Maoshan Sect, has to pay attention to the "pulse eye", the pulse eye here is not quite the same as the pulse eye in the seven levels, in the descending technique, if it is a public evil game, then use the grievances of many ancient tombs to protect each of the ancient tombs, a bit of a party has the meaning of difficult support from all sides, that is to say, Ma Zhenren broke in the Qingshui Bureau, which is all the power of the public evil. And this Zhao Le's tomb not only has a layer of public descent, but also a single descent, that is, a single descent, that is, a single descent, if it is applied on a single tomb, the power must come from the surrounding of the tomb rather than the tomb itself.
In the single game of descending from the tomb, most of them use the power of animals, and the power of these animals is on these veins around the tomb.
The so-called power of livestock, is nothing more than yellow immortals, fox fairies, hedgehogs, snakes, some will also use rabbits and turtles, which depends on the environment around the tomb, generally speaking, the majority of turtles with snakes, especially snakes, snakes have dormant characteristics, under normal circumstances, if the spell is done properly, the snake that guards the tomb can live for nearly a thousand years.
First of all, the caster of Maoshan is required to capture alive some animals that have a little immortal cultivation, that is, the livestock that have the ability to make waves in the township, and then the master casts the spell, and these animals are imprisoned in a special area around the veins around the tomb, these animals with the body of the immortal are quite long, taking the snake as an example, but all the snakes that have the ability to borrow the body of a person from ten miles have lived for at least 80 years, according to the records of the Maoshan technique, The record of the longest life span of livestock treated by Maoshan generations is 1,600 years, and its resentment can not be overcome by borrowing the yang, and the animal reaches this kind of lifespan, which is scientifically unreasonable, but according to the record of Maoshan technique, it is true. If this tomb really has the support of the emperor and is looking for powerful immortal cultivators across the country, then the power of this single tomb may also have a fight with the previous Three Evil Scenes.
If it is a half-immortal with two knives, he may try his best to fight this descending technique on the tomb, but Ma Zhenren is Ma Zhenren after all, and it is much safer to find the veins and eyes of the tomb to break each one than to dig the tomb directly. The animal's cave is on the vein, and each time you clean up one, the power of descending the tomb will be weakened by one layer until it disappears, and at this time, the only force that the caster has to deal with is the animal itself, and it will not be touched by the slightest.
A group of villagers held shovels and sheep pickaxes, followed behind Ma Zhenren and Zhang Guozhong, and went straight to a messy grassland on the east side of the cemetery, Ma Zhenren also put up a battle to test the ability of these animals, the yellow flagpole shook twice, basically able to deal with it, it seems that time is really a terrible thing, even if these animals in the Ming Dynasty may be a powerful role from all over the country, but after hundreds of years of being imprisoned by the art of descent, the spirit of resentment has obviously weakened a lot compared to when Zhao Le was buried.
In a low-lying area of the chaotic grassland, the villagers dug through the carpet, and found a two-foot square iron cabinet without a stick of incense, Ma Zhenren waved his hand, the villagers retreated, Ma Zhenren personally took the "dragon scale" dagger to the front, Zhang Guozhong went up to a sheep pickaxe and smashed the chain that had been seriously corroded, opened the cabinet, Ma Zhenren laughed, only to see a snake bone in the cabinet, the stinky smell in the box, it turned out that the snake had died in the long years.
On the top of the box, Ma Zhenren also saw the "condensation talisman for the first time" (the application of the talisman is also emphasized in the descending technique, but the effect is completely different from the Maoshan technique, this condensation talisman is a talisman that specializes in condensing the spirit of resentment, it is this talisman that transforms the snake's resentment into the power of descending the tomb, that is, destroying this talisman, even if the vein eye is broken, the power of the descending tomb is weakened by one layer, even if the snake is still alive, it has nothing to do with this tomb)", perhaps for embalming, this talisman is painted on cooked cowhide, and sealed with wax.
Opened six veins one after another, except for a dying almost half-dead big vegetable snake, which was cut off by Ma Zhenren with a dagger, basically did not encounter any obstacles, this time, even Ma Zhenren himself was empty, this kind of fragile defense, how could Li Erdan dig two shovels and be so virtuous? Seeing that the seventh big iron box was dug up, it was strange to say that when the seventh iron box was dug up, the ears of all the villagers, including Ma Zhenren, seemed to be buzzing, a bit similar to tinnitus, and the sound seemed to come from the outside world, but from their own ears.
