Chapter Seventy-Four: The Secret Art of Chenzhou
The two of them descended the stairs, and the iron shoes hung far behind them.
"He doesn't give up." Zuo Dengfeng said in a low voice.
"The abbot has spoken, and he won't do anything more." Jade Fu nodded and spoke, instead putting the paper talisman and small bone in his hand back into his arms.
"What are these?" Zuo Dengfeng asked casually.
"It's all charms." Naturally, Yufu would not hide it from him.
"Those bones and roots are spells too?" Zuo Dengfeng asked curiously.
"Yes, the spell paper talisman of our Chenzhou faction only accounts for a small part, and most of them are five-element talismans." Yufu explained.
Zuo Dengfeng didn't ask again when he heard this, he could keenly perceive that those bones and tree roots and the like emitted all kinds of breaths, this kind of breath has a Yin surname and a Yang surname, which belongs to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and after urging with aura, it can amplify and strengthen the five elements of its own surname, so as to affect the surrounding breath, which may be the principle of the Chenzhou faction's spellcasting.
The two soon came to the foot of the Shaolin Temple, and Zuo Dengfeng stopped to say goodbye to the jade whisk.
"Do you hate me?" Jade raised her eyebrows and spoke. Zuo Dengfeng said goodbye to her three times in a row, which made her feel a little unhappy.
"I'm with you like this, and people will talk about you." Zuo Dengfeng smiled and pointed to his robe.
"Why are you doing this?" Yufu asked, she was referring to why Zuo Dengfeng was dressed as a beggar.
"The man dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases himself, this sentence is also true in reverse." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head blankly. After Wu Xinyu's death, his world has always been gray, and being discouraged and lazy is his true state of mind, and he doesn't care about his clothes and appearance anymore.
"Are you afraid that being with me will dilute your thoughts about her?" Yufu asked with a smile. She is older than Zuo Dengfeng, and she has rich experience in the rivers and lakes, so she naturally speaks directly. In addition, although she is arrogant, she will not be arrogant to Zuo Dengfeng, the arrogance is all shown by the crane to the chicken, and the crane is not proud when she is with the crane.
Zuo Dengfeng hurriedly shook his head when he heard this, Yu Fu's words were not emotional, he knew this very well, he was not narcissistic enough to think that Yu Fu would like him, he didn't want to be with Yu Fu because he was worried that Jin Fu would think too much.
"You brought me three days of food, I will invite you to a table, and then I will go back to Hunan." Yufu heartily patted Zuo Dengfeng's shoulder.
Zuo Dengfeng nodded in agreement, and then beckoned to the woods, and Thirteen immediately jumped out of the woods when he saw this, following him by his side. Jade Whisk had already seen Thirteen before, so he just glanced at Thirteen and didn't think much about it. However, the little monkey showed obvious hostility towards Thirteen, screaming at it from time to time, and Thirteen was not afraid of it, he had been ignoring it, and was annoyed by its noise, so he would run a few steps and sprinkle a soak of cat urine, Yufu was very puzzled by this, Zuo Dengfeng smiled and said nothing, he naturally knew that Thirteen's action was contempt.
The two came to the town at the foot of the mountain, chose a clean restaurant, ordered a few simple dishes and a jar of wine, Yufu did not drink, and the wine was ordered for Zuo Dengfeng.
The amount of food in Yufu was very small, and he put down the chopsticks after a few simple bites, Zuo Dengfeng did not follow her to put the chopsticks, and he would not stop if he was not full.
"Are you really going to find the twelve earthly branches?" Jade Whisk turned her head to look at the iron shoes sitting at the door of the restaurant gnawing on the sheep's head.
"No, I'm only looking for the six Yin animals." Zuo Dengfeng swallowed the food in his mouth and shook his head in reply.
"Do you really think they can bring your wife back to life?" Jade Whisk retracted her gaze and picked up the teacup.
"There is a silver lining, and I will not give up." Zuo Dengfeng did not stop eating.
"What would you do if you found all six Yin animals and found out that they couldn't save your wife?" Jade Whisk turned the teacup.
"If I can't let her be with me, I'll be with her." Zuo Dengfeng raised his hand and took the bowl of rice that Yufu hadn't eaten, these questions Zuo Dengfeng had already thought about in his mind thousands of times, and he didn't need to think about it at all.
Hearing this, Yufu frowned, and pondered for a moment before he understood what Zuo Dengfeng wanted to express: if he couldn't let her return to the Yang World, he would chase her to the underworld.
"She's lucky to have met you." Jade Whisk cast an approving glance at Zuo Dengfeng, who greatly admired Zuo Dengfeng's single-mindedness and dedication to his goals.
"Luckily for me, by the way, why aren't you married?" Zuo Dengfeng glanced up at Yufu. The conversation with Yufu was a normal conversation, and Zuo Dengfeng didn't think much about it. In addition, the Taoist priests of the Chenzhou faction, like the Taoist priests of the Maoshan faction, are all Huoju Taoist priests and can be married.
"Only the relationship of life and death is called affection, but as long as I live, I don't know if the other party can live and die." Jade Fu shook her head and smiled.
"You've got into a dead end, but like you, your spells are so strong, ordinary people are not worthy of you, I think the golden needle is good, the cultivation is high, and the long and handsome." Zuo Dengfeng wanted to help Jin Zhen burn a fire before parting.
"His lover died of illness ten years ago, and he hasn't remarried since, so I admire his single-mindedness and affection, but if he likes me, it means that he is not single-minded enough, and he is not worthy of liking him." Yufu is twenty-seven years old, and her words are not twisted.
"It seems like another dead end." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and smiled bitterly. At this moment, he felt relaxed and worried, relieved that Jade Whisk only regarded him as a friend, and worried that the golden needle seemed to have no hope.
"Haha." Jade Whisk put down the teacup and raised her hand to cover her mouth.
"Okay, I'm full, I'll give this back to you." Zuo Dengfeng finished all the meals on the table, then put down his chopsticks, took out the golden bean from his arms and handed it to Yufu.
"Why don't you use it?" Jade Whisk asked curiously.
"Do you want to hear the truth?" Zuo Dengfeng said.
"Nonsense." Jade glanced at Zuo Dengfeng, this look was the same as the look in my sister's eyes when she looked at her naughty brother.
"Actually, I've prepared for the worst, I don't want to close my eyes and suddenly remember who I owe a favor." Zuo Dengfeng grabbed the leftover liquor and stood up, took out a large ocean and counted the cost of the meal.
"You still owe this favor." Yufu stood up and stuffed the golden bean into Zuo Dengfeng's hand, and then opened his mouth to the guy, "Don't look for it, the rest of the room will go to the room." ”
"You're going to stay here tonight?" Zuo Dengfeng looked at the golden beans in his hand suspiciously. The jade whisk can be handed to him, and if he stuffs it into the jade whisk's hand again, it will look light. In addition, Zuo Dengfeng is still distressed about the ocean, and he can't spend enough money on eating and staying in the hotel, and the jade brush is real, and he rewards people with his money.
"It's for you." Yufu said and walked upstairs with his buddy, the first floor of this restaurant is for eating, and the second floor is for guest rooms.
"I don't live in the store, and since it's for me to live, how did you go up?" Zuo Dengfeng muttered in a low voice.
"Come up." Jade Whisk turned around and beckoned to Zuo Dengfeng.
"I'm not going up." Zuo Dengfeng shook his head resolutely.
"Come up and do me a favor." Jade Whisk looked serious.
Zuo Dengfeng heard her say this, so he followed with half a jar of liquor to drink. After entering the room, Jade Fu closed the room with her backhand, walked straight to the side of the bed and lay down.
"Yu Zhenren, I still have something to do, let's go first." Zuo Dengfeng saw that the situation was not good, and turned around to pull the door.
"Little thing, what are you thinking about, help me protect the Fa, don't leave this room." Yufu explained.
"What?" The left summit is unknown.
"I have something left in Nanjing, I'll go get it back, I'll be back tomorrow morning, I can't move during this time, you protect me from here." The jade whisk is the right color opening.
"Lie down here, and I'll get it for you." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and spoke.
"You're hurt, so I'd better go. Remember, don't touch me. Yufu took out two paper talismans from his arms, folded them, and held them in the palm of his hand.
"You also know that I am injured, how can I help you protect the Fa?" Zuo Dengfeng still wanted to shirk it, but just as he was speaking, he suddenly felt that the breath of the jade whisk had changed, frowned and sensed, and found that the soul of the jade whisk had broken away from the body and floated east through the wall.
"Soul out of the body?" Zuo Dengfeng was stunned and looked eastward. As the so-called hearing the Tao has a sequence, and there is a specialization in the art industry, it is definitely not good to compete with others with the Chenzhou faction of Reiki, but they are really good at arranging formations.
"How can she trust me so much?" After a long time, Zuo Dengfeng reacted, quickly ran to the window, pushed open the window, pulled over the table and sat up, and the lonely man and widow always had to avoid suspicion when they were alone in a room.
It didn't take long for the guy to knock on the door to deliver hot water, and Zuo Dengfeng opened the door and asked the guy to bring some fresh fish and peanuts. The fish was for Thirteen, and the peanuts he had to eat by himself.
Zuo Dengfeng sat on the table in front of the window peeling peanuts and drinking, the aroma of peanuts led the monkey of Yufu from Yufu, jumped to the edge of the table and stretched out his paws to Zuo Dengfeng to ask for peanuts. Zuo Dengfeng casually threw one to it, and the monkey raised his hand to grab it, peeled it off and ate it, and reached out to ask for more.
"Meow!" Seeing this, Thirteen immediately left the half-eaten fish and rushed over to blast the monkey, its action had no deep meaning, it was purely jealous, it felt that Zuo Dengfeng could only be good to itself.
"Thirteen, don't make trouble, give it, give you a few more." Zuo Dengfeng comforted Thirteen, and handed the monkey a handful of peanuts again, the monkey sat on the table peeling and eating peanuts, Zuo Dengfeng took the opportunity to touch the inside of its collar, and sure enough, he felt the handwriting, the font was the same as the font on the collar that Thirteen had worn before, and it was also four words, but the content was different, the monkey collar was engraved with "Jiuyang Jin Yong." ”
The monkey ranks ninth in the twelve earthly branches, the surname Yang, the five elements belong to Jin, and the Yong State is one of the eight vassal states that followed Jiang Ziya to fight back then. In this way, it proves that what Yufu said before is correct, each of the eight vassal states has an animal, which is secretly in line with the gold, wood, water and fire in the five elements, and the four earthy animals should be in the border of the Zhou State, as long as Yong, Shu, Qiang, Ji, Wei, Lu, Peng, Pu, where these eight vassal states are located today, you can start to find it.
Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the Earthly Branch, these three metaphysical factors are clearly reflected in the twelve animals, presumably the six Yin and Yin are immortal, and the credibility of the six Yang and Yang immortality is still very high.
Thinking of this, Zuo Dengfeng took out the yellow paper written by the fortune teller from his arms, and began to determine the six Yin animals he was looking for, a golden chicken, a wooden rabbit, a water pig, a fire snake, a sheep belonging to the earth, and a cow belonging to the earth.
After determining the specific goal, Zuo Dengfeng smiled, the six Yin animals he was looking for were not very powerful on the surface, Fujisaki was unlucky, he had to find the dragon, that thing must be difficult to find, and the tiger, the tiger is not easy to catch, the more Zuo Dengfeng thought about it, the happier he became, and in the end he couldn't help laughing.
But after laughing twice, laughing heartily became a bitter smile, just thinking about the difficulties faced by Fujisaki, the difficulties he faced were not small, the snake belonging to fire was definitely not easy to deal with, the golden chicken might not be able to fly, and what was that water pig?
