Chapter Forty-Six: Playing with Death
46.
Eleven years ago, the old man took me from Xiangxi to Guiyang.
The dignified Xiangxi Yi was overjoyed, but he left Xiangxi inexplicably and settled in Guiyang, Guizhou, no one can guess the reason, and so do I.
Although I know some things in the corners, but they are not the point, I still don't understand why the old man took me out of Xiangxi.
Having said that, I know that it all has to do with the two things he brought with him to Guiyang.
A tattered piece of copper.
A bamboo slip that can't be opened.
"What the hell!! What's the !!! It takes no effort to get it!!! "My eyes were full of excitement, and if it weren't for the fact that I couldn't speak underwater, I would have been unable to hold back my shouts.
The four patterns, the last picture, is the "Guigu Corpse Sutra".
And the appearance of the scripture is a black bamboo slip, without a head and a tail, and it is completely impossible to see how to open it from the pattern.
"It turns out that the old man brought back this copper piece that he brought back with me" I frowned again, and looked carefully at the pattern carved on the back of Bai Yunzi, puzzled.
The copper plate was cast in bronze, and there was patina on it, which must have fallen from some antiquity, and there seemed to be only two things that could match it in the line of immortal treasures.
The heaven-given bronze coffin returns the green lamp.
But if you think about it carefully, the coffin is so strong that it shouldn't fall off this thing, and besides, the green lantern is originally a broken thing, maybe when the lamp breaks, a piece of debris will fall out.
Each of the four patterns has a small quote engraved underneath.
***********************
Returning the green light:
"Immortal Bureau, lamp as eye, yin bronze casting, white whisker core."
"Let the oil enter the lamp, the fire touches its core, the green lamp burns, the light mist disperses, and the ink is opened."
***********************
Heavenly Bronze Coffin:
"Yin copper casts its coffin, so it contains qi, Wang Chan casts a spell on the coffin, and the coffin can support people."
"The corpse is in the coffin to be raised, and the soul is in the battle to be raised."
"Three years of spring and autumn, the day the coffin is opened, the soul returns, and the person recovers."
***********************
Immortal Oil:
"This thing is not something that people can understand, and the rest only know its use but don't know its wonders."
"Yang people drink oil, and they have a lifespan of three hundred."
"Yin people drink oil, and Yang lives forever."
"Let the corpse drink half of the oil of the coffin, and enter the coffin to nourish the body, so as to live forever."
"Let the remaining oil enter the lamp, the green lamp burns, and the ink is opened."
***********************
Guigu Corpse Sutra:
"Ink bamboo and wood, contains longevity."
"The autopsy is immeasurable, and the best scriptures are of the highest quality."
"The ghost valley makes the art hidden in Jane, and the way of immortality is also hidden in Jane."
"This is the most treasured, woohoo, fortunately it is finished!"
"Ink bamboo and wood, not afraid of fire and water, keep its secret skills, and be foolproof."
***********************
"No wonder it was originally used here," I somewhat understood what was written in Zuo Ci's Daoji.
As mentioned above, only half of the coffin of oil is needed to resurrect a person, that is, only half of the coffin is used for the oil to feed the corpse.
What is the rest of the oil used for?
What is recorded in the "Tao Ji" is to use the remaining oil to light the green lantern, as for what to light the green lantern, but I haven't written it clearly, just wrote a bureau, I didn't know that it could be used to open bamboo slips.
Speaking of which, I would also like to tell you by the way what I have read from the Book of the Dao.
If you want to resurrect a person, you have to go through the following steps, to be precise, two big steps, that is, two bureaus.
The first big step is the first bureau, the Heavenly Coffin Raising Bureau, which is divided into four small steps.
First, keep the corpse of the person who wants to be resurrected, feed him to drink the immortal oil (just feed him to drink within a month, or drink it directly when he is alive, and then proceed to the next steps), and send him into the heaven-given bronze coffin within a month.
Second, put him in a coffin and raise him, use the heaven-given bronze coffin as a local eye, put it in one place and do not touch it, and wait quietly for three years.
Third, then summon the soul of the deceased, and use a special formation to place the soul in the jade to raise three souls and seven spirits.
Fourth, when the coffin is opened, the local eye is changed on the original basis, and the green light is used as the local eye.
This is the second big step, that is, the second bureau, the Green Lantern Immortal Bureau.
Linked to what is written behind the statue of Bai Yunzi, I think the steps of the Immortal Bureau are probably like this.
After lighting the blue lantern, place the green lantern in the eye of the bureau to start the formation.
Then, the smoke emitted by the burning of the lamp oil will open the bamboo slips, and the caster will just recite the scriptures on the bamboo slips, but how can this be opened?!
Could it be that as soon as it touches that kind of smoke, the bamboo slip will loosen and automatically fall apart?!
"If you really happen to get other treasures, the old man may have a chance to survive and fall." The smile on my face became more and more obvious, and when the fat uncle saw that I was smiling like a fool, he also leaned over and looked behind the statue.
When the fat uncle saw the pattern behind the statue of Bai Yunzi, the peculiar black bamboo slip pattern directly attracted his attention.
After half a ring, a surprised expression finally appeared on his face.
Sure enough, Uncle Fat's memory is still no worse than mine, I showed him the old man's relics, that is, the bamboo slips and the copper sheet, and he has not forgotten it until now.
I saw the fat uncle pointing to the pattern curiously, and then pointed to me, meaning, that thing is the one in the wreath shop?
I nodded, and a silent exchange was ready to begin.
Just when I was about to raise my hand to make a gesture to the fat uncle, I only felt that someone was dragging me behind my back, and I subconsciously turned my head to see that it was Hai Dongqing, a birdman.
"Gone." Hai Dongqing shook the cloth pocket in his hand and said to me with his eyes: "It's all cleaned up." ”
Old Man Hai also nodded to us, walked to the statue with a smile and glanced at it, then raised his head and didn't react otherwise.
"Did you take these?" I smiled, put the gold brick in my waist bag, and pointed around the unfinished gold bricks on the ground, and the unspoken words were self-evident.
Hai Dongqing shook his head and looked at me helplessly, so did Old Man Hai.
"Oh, it's not that I'm scared."
I picked up the nearest gold brick and put it in my pocket.
It's really not appropriate to stay here for a long time, wasting time here for the sake of gold bricks is death, I just said that before, I didn't see Hai Dongqing and they looked at me with helpless eyes, I changed my mind?!
Well, I'm not a money-loving person, at least I do.
"The sin of capitalism, local tyrants are local tyrants, and they don't even take a second look at the gold bricks." I shook my head, trying to swim towards where we had come from, but suddenly something important occurred to me, and my movements stopped.
According to Old Man Hai, there were two coffins that fell from the ceiling at the beginning.
So would Galeries Lafayette just take one of the coffins?!
It's so dangerous here, there's no way he's going to take both pairs, right?! I don't have to fight so hard!
Although no one saw Lafayette take the coffin, and even Old Man Hai didn't know what Lafayette took in this Tianyun Water Palace, I can guess that he came for the coffin.
Without a coffin is equivalent to not having immortality, his purpose is to live forever, can he let go of the treasure of the heaven-sent bronze coffin?
Coincidentally, after I thought about it at the time, I thought of something unreliable.
Regarding the treasure of immortality, there are reusable and disposable treasures.
Reused is similar to, green lanterns, scriptures.
And the one-time use is lamp oil, but I think this God-given copper coffin is also a disposable?
There are three parts of lamp oil, and there are also three heavenly copper coffins
"At the beginning, Zuo Ci succeeded, used one, and there are two left, is it really a one-off?"
I was still thinking about what was going on, when the fat uncle slapped me on the head, staring and pointing upwards, meaning that I should hurry up and roll the calf towards my destination.
Just as I was about to roll the ball obediently, Hai Dongqing suddenly grabbed me.
At that moment, I could clearly see their faces change.
I don't know if it's because of the cold sea water, or other reasons, everyone's faces are extremely white at this time, and there is no blood at all, and the fat uncle's eyes are even more fearful, and his body trembles slightly.
"No," I froze, swallowing my saliva and slowly raising my head, looking at the top of the giant cavern like them.
At the top of the cavern, five huge humanoid monsters were lying on it, their eyes staring at us with strange expressions.
The corners of their mouths were slightly curved upward, as if they were smiling, and the cheeks were quivering, a strange smile that I can't accurately describe
All in all, their smiles are four words, vicious and cruel.
It was the first time I had seen them in person, and I was immediately amazed by their size.
Five monsters equivalent to five or six stories tall lying on the ceiling looking at themselves, who can not be afraid?
"What's the trouble" goosebumps popped up all over my body in an instant, and there must be an urge to be weak, but I knew that if I was soft, I would die.
At that moment, a deafening howl came out of their mouths, and the Great Evil began to slap the walls of the cave with their huge palms, causing the entire cave to begin to shake violently.
At the same time, Hai Dongqing also twisted the cap of the bottle containing the eight-legged golden-eyed insect.
It's time to play to your death
