"The money is coming!" My hands, dangling in front of his eyes.

However, he did not react.

I touched his hand, it was cold.

"Money is coming, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me? There are still dozens of kilometers to go, and if you don't ride, do you want me to ride? ”

On this day, it was just dark, not yet completely dark, I could see the road, so what happened to him?

His stunned appearance made people feel a little scary.

Could he be evil?

It shouldn't be, the money is very good at protecting himself, he will go to Master Tongtian, and his friend named Qi Qing is wearing it, anyway, when I look at them, they are all like that, people who know what to order and know something, they should know how to ward off evil spirits.

Don't? Was it something on his body that pierced one of his acupuncture points, so he was motionless?

I first looked at the clothes that the money came from, and there was nothing special.

Then, my eyes shifted to his neck, and there was no necklace or anything.

And then there is...... Wait, Qian Lailai wears it on its left wrist, a jade carving, a small animal lying on the jade coin, and ties its tail with a red thread.

What is this?

I used to hear the old man say that this is a fierce beast in ancient Chinese folklore.

That's right, it's Pixiu.

Also known as Tianlu, evil spirit, Baijie, a total of four names. It is divided into males and females, the males are called Pi and the females are called Pi. Like a deer and long tail, the head has horns and leans back, divided into one horn and two horns, one horn is called "Tianlu", two horns are called "evil spirits", the body is composed of dragon head and dragon tail, horse body, unicorn feet, its color is also gold and jade, the body shape is like a tiger and leopard, the shape is like a lion, no scales, its shoulder length has a pair of wings that cannot be stretched, but can fly. Pixiu is fierce and mighty, and ordinary ghosts will be afraid when they see Pixiu, because Pixiu will suck the essence blood of ghosts, and it is responsible for patrolling the heavens to prevent demons, demons, plagues, and diseases from disturbing the heavens. Because he violated the rules of heaven, he was punished by the Jade Emperor and could only eat gold and silver treasures, which would not leak out after swallowing.

During the reign of King Wu of Zhou, Pixiu was a fierce beast in the Western Regions that lived in Tibet and Kangding, Sichuan N years ago, and had extremely strong fighting ability. When Jiang Ziya helped King Wu to conquer the war, he encountered a Pixiu on a march, but no one knew him at that time, Jiang Ziya felt that it looked powerful and extraordinary, so he tried his best to subdue it and use it as his mount. Fight with it and win battles and victories. King Wu of Zhou saw that Pixiu was so brave and magical, so he gave him an official title, and the official name was "Yun". At that time, Jiang Ziya found that Pixiu ate an amazing amount of food every day, but he never defecated. And its only excretory system is from the fur of its whole body, secreting a little bit of strange fragrance of sweat, after the animals in all directions smell this strange fragrance, they all rush to be the first, involuntarily run to fight for food, but are eaten by Pixiu.

In the era of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang dug out a pair of Pixiu from the ground after setting the capital of Nanjing, and Pixiu was the ninth prince of the Dragon King, so he ordered people to build a Pixiu Hall next to Linggu Temple to worship this pair of Pixiu. Zhu Yuanzhang fixed the capital of Nanjing after repairing the Zhongshan Gate, but the treasury had no money, Prime Minister Liu Bowen is also a feng shui master, suggested that Zhu Yuanzhang use Pixiu to collect money, Zhu Yuanzhang obeyed to put a pair of the world's largest Pixiu in the country, as a result, the gentry of the two rivers have donated, big construction, the scene is grand Zhu Yuanzhang is full of emotion, praise: The subjects of the Ming Dynasty are so loyal, the country will be ten thousand years.

During the Qianlong period, because the Qianlong Emperor was so ancient, he had an extraordinary obsession and love for ancient jade, and we can see the imperial year and imperial poems engraved on it by Emperor Qianlong personally on several pieces of ancient jade Pixiu in the palace at that time, which shows the importance and love for it.

The National Palace Museum in Taipei has a Han Dynasty jade pixiu, its pulp is shiny, once deeply ripe plate, Pixiu's chest is engraved with imperial poems. It is equipped with a double-layer rosewood seat, the upper layer is engraved with the words "Qianlong Imperial Play", and the lower layer is engraved with the same imperial poem as Pixiu's chest, which shows that it was once the favorite collection of Emperor Qianlong. Another piece of Han Dynasty jade Pixiu is now in the Palace Museum, and it is engraved with the poem "Qianlong Imperial Inscription in the Year of Yisi". While appreciating and praising the antiquities, the Qianlong Emperor also ordered craftsmen to make new "antique" artifacts with reference to the image of Pixiu mythical beasts in the Han and Wei dynasties and the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

In addition, it is said that when Song Meiling was young, she was deeply loved by her father Song Yaoru, and one of the most precious gifts she received from her father was a pair of Pixiu, at that time, because the eldest sister Song Ailing, that is, Mrs. Kong Xiangxi, forced the other mother's Pixiu from the hands of the younger sister Song Meiling, so when her husband left Nanjing in 1949, he only brought a male Pixiu to Taiwan, and now it is still stored in Taiwan's Zhongzheng Mansion, so her husband can dominate one side. Another female Pixiu fell into the hands of Li Ka-shing several times, and after the 70s, Li Ka-shing became one of the ten richest people in the world, and the female Pixiu is still in Li Ka-shing's villa in Repulse Bay.

Many people believe that Pixiu is the current giant panda, and it is recorded in the "Records of the Five Emperors" that more than 4,000 years ago, the Yellow Emperor domesticated tigers, leopards, Pixiu (giant pandas) and other powerful animals for the army to charge into battle, and defeated Emperor Yan in Hanquan (now Zhuolu County, Hebei Province).

In the South, some people refer to it as a "monster" or a "four-like" and so on.

"Don't touch it!" Qian Lailai saw my left hand, getting closer and closer to his Pixiu.

"The money is coming, you finally woke up, what happened to you just now?" I listened to him, and did not touch the Pixiu with my left hand, but covered his Pixiu with the palm of my right hand, and then, with the little finger of my right hand, tapped Pixiu's eyes twice.

"You're trying to me off? What are your hands doing? ”

"I'm talking to it! It's so naughty! As he spoke, he used the ring finger of his right hand to tap Pixiu's mouth twice in the direction of Qian Lailai's little finger.

In an instant, Qian Lailai withdrew his left wrist in the direction of his right chest, "Don't you know that these two places of Pixiu must not be touched?" ”

"As for such a big reaction? I didn't touch its ass, I can't touch the tiger's ass, I know! ”

"Pixiu likes to sleep lazy, it can't be touched casually, Pixiu knows human nature, and hates strangers touching themselves, just like a child who recognizes people, not his own master Pixiu will not like it, and a Pixiu has a master, you just touched its two places, it will affect Pixiu's spiritual power to ward off evil spirits and attract wealth."

"Don't be so superstitious, I just want to help you get rid of it, this is too slering, I don't think you're bloody! Is it because of this that you are in a trance? "My hands, together reached to the wrist where the money came from.

"It's not! Don't touch it! Qian Lailai took his left hand from his right chest and stretched it to the left until I couldn't reach it.

As I lowered my hand, my eyes widened, and I turned my head, no longer looking at him, not wanting to look at him, "Huh! You want me to touch it, but I don't want to! Look at how it looks, with short wings, double horns, curly tail, mane and thrust, protruding eyes and fangs. Hurry up and get on the bike! I still have something to do when I go back to school! ”

Qian Lailai was riding a bicycle while chatting with me, "Zhan Ye, I was too wrong to you just now, I'm sorry!" ”

He saw that I didn't pay attention to him, and then he said, "People like you who come to menstruation, who are weak, deficient, constipated, have a bad stomach, people who belong to dogs, tigers and rabbits, and pregnant women are not suitable to wear Pixiu, and those who are adulterers are not suitable to wear them when they are married to life." ”

What he meant was that I owned all these things, so it wasn't suitable to be worn? Please, I'm not asking for him, forget it, kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs.

I panted impatiently, with the ups and downs of my shoulders, and if he hadn't ridden too fast to jump, I would have wanted to jump, but it wasn't worth breaking my leg for him.

At this moment, he is like a Tang monk, how can he not know that he has caused trouble to others now? Can't he see that I don't want to hear it? Why are you still talking?

"You love to scold and get angry, Pixiu is lazy, in addition to helping the master absorb wealth and eat and sleep, sleep and eat, but when your temper comes up, it will explode, obscenities, startling may affect Pixiu, frightened, it will lead to a decline in wealth."

I covered my ears with my hands and shouted, "Got it, got it, got it!" I don't want it, I don't want it, I don't want it! ”

Yes, I kept repeating it loudly, and this time he must have known that I was angry!

Who knows, what he covered first was his Pixiu, and he looked at that Pixiu from time to time, it seemed that it should be his child.

After a minute or so, Qian Lailai reacted, found that I was not in the right mood, and began to persuade me, "Zhan Ye! What happened to you just now? Are you okay? ”

"I'm fine, is there anything wrong with that Pixiu of yours?" I used a very sarcastic tone.

He seemed to be taken aback! It's okay, I'll just comfort it! He said as he gently stroked Pixiu's head with his hand, as if it were like this, it would be obedient to the money.

"The money is coming, can you look at the front? You're riding, not connoisseurship! It's not just that, I'm also a living being, take responsibility for me, okay? ”

By the way, last time I was outside Master Tongtian's door, why didn't I find out about him? Or is it the Pixiu he just bought, or is it given to him by an important person, so he cherishes it so much?

"How much longer?" I asked anxiously.

"Less than an hour left!" He probably saw that I was a little distraught, put down its Pixiu, stopped looking at it, and talked to me about the day.

"Your right hand was bitten, and Qi Qing's left hand was also bitten, did you two bite each other?"

"That's right! It wasn't a dog bite, we were both mad dogs, and we both bit each other, okay? Really, why hasn't it been yet? Sitting in your car for more than an hour, it is simply like a year, and it is very painful, and I will not do this car in the future! It feels slower than learning from the West! With that, I opened my crossed legs, straightened them, and slapped my calves with alternating between my left and right hands.

"Sit down!" He said this as a normal person, and he had a bit of eyesight.

"Zhan Ye! Look, what's that? ”
