Chapter 52: Tokens

"Master, is the gourd really filled with Tianhe water? Is there really a river in the sky? Then who is in charge of Tianhe, is it Zhu Bajie? Is it really using the water of the Tianhe River to guide the rain in Qingming? If there is Tianhe water, if someone really uses Tianhe water to guide the rain, there will really be Lingxiao Treasure Hall and Jade Emperor in the sky, right? ……”

Wang Xiaobai was so curious, Wang Laodao continued to shop, but Wang Xiaobai couldn't help but ask many questions, Wang Laodao was too lazy to answer at first, he was really annoyed by the question, and turned back to Wang Xiaobai and said: "I know, I am not a god, I don't know if there is a heavenly court, I don't know if there is a heavenly river, whether it is a heavenly river that leads rain, I don't know, and no one informed me." ”

"Everyone says so, I just say so, but I have to admit that the first rain of the Qingming season, the first thirty seconds of rain is indeed full of aura, not the general yin and yang water can be compared, the world is mysterious, many things are indescribable, slowly you will know, this world is very magical......"

Wang Laodao's answer was the same as not answering, Wang Xiaobai was very stunned, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and asked in a low voice: "Master, since we all know that the first thirty seconds of rain on the Qingming Festival are precious, why don't you pick it up?" It shouldn't be too difficult to calculate where the first rain of Qingming is, right? Tianhe water is so valuable, the contact is a point! ”

"You know a fart, the first rain of the day of Qingming must be the wind and thunder, the thunder is huge, and if you don't have any real skills, you have to be struck by lightning when you go up, not to mention that it is really as good as you said? Even if you calculate it, you will definitely be able to reach the top of the mountain in time? For example, Master Zhou, no matter how much he knew, he couldn't catch the river water this day. ”

Listening to Wang Laodao's words, a picture appeared in Wang Xiaobai's mind, the silent night, the wild mountain wind, the top of the high mountain, Wang Laodao held a gourd scoop in one hand, under the lightning and thunder, jumping to catch the rain...... "Isn't it over with a lightning rod?" Wang Xiaobai couldn't help muttering.

Wang Laodao rolled his eyes and gave Wang Xiaobai a slap on the back of the head: "So much nonsense? Come with me on the bridge! ”

Wang Xiaobai stopped talking nonsense, followed Wang Laodao to go to the bridge, and after shopping, he would find that Wang Laodao was more troublesome than women shopping, in addition to bargaining, blowing amazingly, some things were still very hesitant, Wang Laodao had no money, so he could only exchange the things in his backpack, which was not only troublesome, but also time-consuming.

At first, Wang Xiaobai was still patient, but after a long time, he felt a little bored, bored and looked around, for more than half an hour, there were almost 180 stalls on the bridge, there were more people and ghosts, and there were all kinds of sales, messy, in addition to yellow paper, incense, cinnabar, there were also people who sold talismans, magic utensils, and some things that could not be named, a bit similar to the feeling of the antique market.

Wang Xiaobai wanted to look around, but he didn't dare to leave Wang Laodao, for fear of being trained, but he just looked at it, and yawned out of boredom, and before he finished yawning, Wang Xiaobai saw two acquaintances, Huang Erye and Huang Sangu, standing in front of a stall and seeming to bargain quietly.

Who would have thought that you could meet acquaintances here! Wang Xiaobai was overjoyed, and felt that he should go and say hello, so he dragged Wang Laodao, who was bargaining, and whispered: "Master, I saw Huang Erye and Huang Sangu, it's not far to the right, can I go and say hello?" ”

Wang Laodao took a fancy to a rusty Sanqing Bell in this stall, bargaining was very unpleasant, bragging with the stall owner, blowing the sky, never thought that the stall owner could blow better than Wang Laodao, and the three Qingling was almost used by Yuan Shi Tianzun, the two were deadlocked, no one spoke, and they all lost their superior demeanor.

Wang Laodao, who was disturbed, turned his head and looked, and saw Huang Erye and Huang Sangu, who were only a few steps away from this stall, and nodded: "Go, don't go far, just wait for me there!" After saying that, he turned his head and continued to bargain.

Wang Xiaobai got permission, and happily walked to Huang Erye and Huang Sangu carefully, the reason why he was careful was that there were too many old ghosts on the bridge, and it was not good to collide, don't look at the distance of a few steps, but the time was not too short, Wang Xiaobai walked to them, they didn't feel it, they seemed to be very interested in the things on the stall, and they were watching it with all their attention.

Wang Xiaobai stretched out his hand and tugged at Huang Erye's clothes, and whispered, "Second Master, you and your third aunt are also here?" ”

Huang Erye was not taken aback, let alone said anything, but slowly turned his head and looked at Wang Xiaobai indifferently. He stomped his foot and said, "Why are you so ghostly, kid?" Why did I provoke you in the first place? I've been moldy for eight lifetimes. ”

Wang Xiaobai was very puzzled and asked, "Why did the second master say that?" ”

Huang Sangu also turned around, looked at Wang Xiaobai and said with a smile: "Xiaobai, the second master is playing with you, you go and tell your master that there are important things he wants here, come quickly, go quickly!" ”

Wang Xiaobai frowned, he felt cordial when he saw Huang Erye and Huang Sangu in this ghost place, he came to say hello and say a few words, but Huang Erye's attitude made him a little confused, it seems that Huang Erye and Huang Sangu have seen him a long time ago, but they have been pretending not to see him, obviously they don't want to recognize him, but Huang Erye doesn't need to say anything like that?

Wang Xiaobai's face was a little unsightly, Huang Sangu pushed him and said, "Xiaobai, go find your master and tell him what I said!" ”

Wang Xiaobai was pushed and staggered, and when he stood firm, he turned around, Huang Erye and Huang Sangu were gone, Wang Xiaobai felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly went to find Wang Laodao, who was still bargaining, and whispered: "Huang Sangu said that there are things very important to you in the stall they just saw, let you go quickly!" ”

Wang Laodao raised his head, looked at the stall, was not bargaining, dragged Wang Xiaobai and walked a few steps quickly, to the position where Huang Erye and Huang Sangu were standing just now, looked at the stall, his body trembled violently, and then froze, the change was too obvious, Wang Xiaobai was very surprised, Wang Laodao looked calm and unhurried no matter what time it was, what's wrong?

I couldn't help but look at the stall, the stall in front of me was paved with a white cloth, indicating that the person setting up the stall was a spirit, raised his head and looked, the two men, both of whom had sharp-beaked monkey gills, especially the mouth, protruding forward, triangular eyes, and eyes also bulging outward, giving people a very weird feeling, not tall, only one meter two or three height, like a dwarf, bald, black face, I don't know what it is.

There are a bunch of old objects on the stall, there are incense burners, yellowed books, old jade plates, pearls, and a piece of antique old boxwood token, the token is five inches and five minutes long, two inches and four minutes wide, and five minutes thick. There was a rune carved with seal characters on it, floating with a layer of ash, and Wang Laodao's eyes were staring at this token, his chest was undulating, and he looked very excited.

Wang Laodao slowly squatted down, grabbed the token, raised his head and asked the two stallholders in a deep voice: "How did you get this token?" ”

"You don't care how we came here, the rules of the yin market, only trade, don't ask where you come from, you want to trade, you can trade, if you don't trade, get out, although you are a Taoist, our brothers are not afraid of you, this is the yin market, no matter how big your Taoism is, do you dare to make a mistake? ……”

The words were said by the man on the left, the seemingly rough man's voice was sharp and sharp, and there was a little milky and small, vague, and the words were not very clear, very much like a dialect somewhere in the south, Wang Xiaobai had never heard such an ugly sound, and every word seemed to pop out.

Wang Laodao did not refute the man's words, but nodded and said: "This is the token of the Ming Dynasty, if my guess is right, the two are Longjia generals, right?" Drilling mountains, stealing holes, living according to tombs, the two tokens were stolen from the underground palace of a deserted Taoist temple in the mountains of Xiangxi, right? ”

The two brothers are like a pair of twins, but their personalities are completely different, the one on the right has always been gloomy and calm, and the one on the left has more words, after listening to Wang Laodao, he said curiously: "How do you know?" ”

Wang Laodao laughed cruelly: "Because Lao Tzu is the descendant of Lingguan Dao and the current head, you are stealing the tomb of my ancestor!" This brand is my ancestor's token! ”

After Wang Laodao finished speaking, he pinched a Lingguan trick with his left hand and poked it towards the man on the left, Wang Xiaobai fell, no wonder Huang Erye's face was so strange when he saw this brand, it turned out that these two goblins were tomb robbers, and they stole the tomb of one of the ancestors of Lingguan Dao in the past dynasties, so there is such a brand.

As soon as Wang Laodao made a move, the man on the right stepped back suddenly, bent down and reached out to grab the black cloth on the ground, and shook it violently and rolled it together.

The man on the left was slippery like a loach, Wang Laodao made a move, he took a step back, threw a white thing on the ground, and splashed a cloud of white smoke with a pop, enveloping the two brothers, Wang Laodao shouted, reached out and took out an iron ruler from his arms, and was just about to do it, when the monsters on the railings on both sides of the stone bridge suddenly came to life.

Click...... The stone beast mechanically turned to face Wang Lao Dao, a pair of eyes stared at him coldly, and the front paws that were originally squatting stretched out to the back, pulling down the long sword behind his back! One after another murderous aura surging in, forcing Wang Laodao and Wang Xiaobai, if Wang Laodao has any more radical behavior, presumably these monsters will not hesitate to jump down and besiege, all the people on the bridge are looking at Wang Laodao's master and apprentice, the whole bridge seems to suddenly stop time, no one moves, and no one speaks, it is simply quiet and scary.

After a cloud of white smoke, the two brothers slipped away, and there was no trace of them on the bridge. Wang Laodao breathed heavily, couldn't help but take a deep breath, took a deep breath, and put the iron ruler back into his arms...... Changed back to the way it was, as if nothing had happened.

Wang Laodao's face was gloomy, and he stomped his feet, not trading, and dragged Wang Xiaobai towards the way he came.
