Chapter XXXVIII
Yi Shan set up a candle array on the ground, and drew a spell array in the center of the array.
He wrapped the rosary around his hand and snapped his hands together eleven beats.
An old coffin broke through the ground, slowly rose, and finally stood silently in the center of the formation.
Boss Zhu frowned.
The smell of this coffin made him a little nervous.
"This ...... What is it? He said.
Yi Shan smiled and said, "Secret." However, I can tell you that this is an ancient corpse that has been stored in Liufangzhai here since ancient times, and it is a treasure that can only be driven by special moments. β
Yi Shan used all his strength out of thin air, and the lid of the coffin was lifted aside.
In the coffin was a corpse.
It was a naked adult male, burly with long shaggy and messy hair. There was not a trace of blood on his body, and he was covered in dust.
He had a terrible scar on his neck, as if it had been decapitated and then rejoined.
Yi Shan copied Zuo Kui's soul in his hand, and chanted the mantra with his eyes open.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes suddenly, and a gust of wind stirred up around him.
He threw Zuo Kui's soul into the corpse.
In this way, Zuo Kui borrowed the corpse to resurrect his soul and gained a second life.
At first, Zuo Kui was very dissatisfied with Yi Shanduan's discipline.
However, in just a few days, Zuo Kui's temper changed drastically.
He lost his temper, his personality began to become indifferent, and his rationality grew explosively, eroding all his thinking.
Even he didn't understand why.
A week later, he became taciturn and sane.
Yi Shanqian seemed to have foreseen it, and talked and laughed with him:
"What's your name?"
"Zuo Kui." Zuo Kui said.
Not obedience, not fear.
It's just a name, and it's very naΓ―ve to be manipulated by rebellious psychology without saying it; It's cowardly to be afraid that the other party will murder you and not say it.
There is nothing to say.
Zuo Kui himself was amazed by the change in his thinking, but even this surprise quickly settled down.
"Kui?" Yi Shan listened, and his eyes lit up: "Which one?" β
Zuo Kui wrote his name on a piece of paper.
Yi Shan looked at it and seemed disappointed.
"The sound is not the word, the fate of you and my ghost road, sure enough, the cutting is still messy."
Yi Shan said and wrote down another word "Kui".
"From today, your name will be changed to this word."
"Why?"
"Because from today onwards, you're going to work in this shop, and you have to hide your real name."
Yi Shan said with a smile.
After telling Zuo Kui the whole story, he said:
"You see, the reason you want to die is because you don't know how to live. But you can't die for the time being, so give me a few days to do it. β
Zuo Kui sneered and said, "What if I say no? β
A spell suddenly appeared in Yi Shanduan's hand and stuck it on Zuo Kui's forehead.
"If you don't obey, you will be punished until you die."
Zuo Kui's body couldn't move, but he still didn't give in and agreed to Yi Shan's request.
Yi Shandu ignored him and put him in the courtyard for three days.
Three days later, Zuo Kui agreed to Yi Shanduan's request.
During these three days, Liufangzhai's business and knowledge made him vaguely feel that he had entered a wonderful new world.
His curiosity was intrigued.
At the same time, he thought of the time when he was alive, and gradually dimmed.
Perhaps, it would be nice to stay here.
Zuo Kui finally thought so.
He became Yi Shanduan's assistant and Liufangzhai's apprentice.
Yi Shan taught him many things.
What is Liufangzhai, what is it for, how to run a business, what to do and what not to do.
Although Yi Shanqian kept a lot of things, the things he taught Zuo Kui were enough for him to digest for a long time.
Zuo Kui followed Yi Shan to do his best to work outside twice. After that, he wanted to do it all alone.
Yi Shan knows everything well, and he knows that Zuo Kui's catastrophe has come.
He took out a dusty box from the hexagonal fast.
The dust blown up by Yishan stained a white wall mottled.
There were two rulers in the box, one with white characters and the other with black characters, each three feet six inches long, like two sharp blades.
The name of the two rulers, called Liangyi Breaking Life and Death, is a treasure weapon that lasts forever in the Liufang Zhai.
When the two rulers are used, they can each be broken into nine knots and four inches.
When facing the enemy, it is like a flying knife, and there is an offensive like a rainstorm.
Yi Shan told Zuo Kui that people know how to advance and retreat, and the sea and the sky are broad.
The things that Liufangzhai operates are not known to mortals.
Don't have too many things to do with mortals and disputes, it is the principle of Liufangzhai.
Once the cause arises, it is often a catastrophe.
Yi Shan has lived for hundreds of years and knows this truth. But Zuo Kui didn't understand.
Despite the great change in personality, the fledgling Zuo Kui still has some arrogance and conceit.
Liufangzhai's background and the skills that Yi Shan taught him made him look down on ordinary mortals in his heart.
His frivolity finally led to Si Chen's grudge.
The bond between Liufangzhai and mortals has been cut and sorted out since then.
That's all for later.
A few months later, Zuo Kui's personality was completely transformed by this body, and he matured like an elder who had gone through vicissitudes.
Yi Shan took advantage of the situation to push the piles of information in the store to Zuo Kui, and he was happy.
Those strange knowledge satisfied Zuo Kui's growing curiosity.
The inhuman guests who visit from time to time continue to verify what he has learned.
Zuo Kui was in a corpse, and suddenly found the meaning and sense of accomplishment of life.
Sometimes, he himself finds it ironic.
Yi Shanduan and Boss Zhu get along best.
He told Zuo Kui that Boss Zhu's grocery store sold daily necessities to visiting mortals. But in this industry, it is a grocery workshop.
The so-called grocery workshop is to do a little bit of everything.
For example, the corpses of mortals, sent by regular customers, are made into fine ingredients.
Zuo Kui was a little shocked when he first heard about this business.
But then, he was relieved.
Man can eat beasts, and when beasts are spirits, of course they will eat people.
As a store in Demon Street, Boss Zhu's sources of goods are all regular channels.
Mortals who commit suicide, mortals who voluntarily sign contracts with the supply monsters and contribute their corpses, edible spirit beasts and mountain delicacies and fruits obtained by legitimate means, and various materials that cannot be more mixed.
There are always sellers to provide to Boss Zhu.
Boss Zhu's shop has a warehouse and processing workshop underground.
Although it has a black workshop-like environment, the craftsmanship and methods are visible in the industry.
The price is fair, the quality is guaranteed, Boss Zhu is a person, and he is also righteous and honest.
Zuo Kui quickly became friends with him.
Seeing Zuo Kui in charge, Yi Shanquan was very satisfied, and seemed to have completed a matter of his heart.
Next, he began to leave the store frequently.
At first it was a day or two, then three or four days.
The time is getting longer and longer, and there is no one for more than a month at most.
When Zuo Kui and Boss Zhu chatted together, they also talked more about what happened to Yi Shanqian recently.
However, they did not have a chance to ask in detail.
Every time Yi Shandu came back, he was tired and exhausted, as if he had come back from a long march.
Zuo Kui gradually knew the rules of this industry, and he didn't ask much.
This lasted for almost a year.
Finally one day, Yi Shan returned to the store late at night, dusty.
He woke Zuo Kui up from the coffin, and said mysteriously:
"Take the guys and come with me."
