Chapter 9: Ghost Peachwood

However, the process of opening the altar talisman is quite complicated, and the person who sets up the altar must also have a certain way to do it, and more importantly, the specific method is not recorded in the "Yin and Yang Mysticism", so I and the cheap can't get it anyway, and I can't ask Huang Yixian about it, so I can only use the unopened paper talisman first, I think it's just a practice anyway, and I shouldn't run into anything powerful, and these paper talismans are almost enough to deal with ordinary filth.

There are many Taoist magic weapons, including flags, flags, swords, rulers, seals, bells, towers, tokens, ruyi, dust, etc., and the most common and effective magic weapon is the peach wood sword.

The peach is the essence of the five woods, also known as the "fairy wood", "descending dragon wood" and "ghost wood", its nature is yang, so it has the effect of warding off evil spirits, if it is a peach wood sword made of hundreds of years of old peach wood, it is a very powerful superior magic weapon, and the peach wood sword has a benefit, even if it is not opened, it can still be used as a magic weapon, because the pure yang essence contained in the peach wood itself, it can drive away evil spirits.

I discussed it with the lowly, and I felt that it was not easy to get other magic weapons, but it should not be difficult to get a peachwood sword, because we are rich in peach wood in this area, and many families have peach trees planted in the front yard and back of their houses.

However, not all peach wood can be used to make peach wood swords, at least peach trees that have grown for more than 20 years can be used, and the most haode material for making peach swords is the relatively rare bitter peach tree, the bitter peach tree is commonly known as the peach tree, the peaches that bear fruit are small and bitter, and they can't be eaten at all, and generally no one will plant them at home, so they can only be seen in the wild, and even in the wild, it is not easy to find a bitter peach tree that is more than 20 years old.

I and the cheap every day after school, then in the county around the city, but wandering around for more than half a month, did not find a suitable bitter peach tree, just when we were about to give up the use of bitter peach wood to make peach swords, this day living in the suburbs of the city of Niu Fat suddenly out of nowhere to get a large number of peaches, he made these peaches naturally not for eating, but to take the peach pit, the peach pit can be used to process into jewelry, there are traders in the city to buy, ten cents and a cent.

Just when the fat cow was knocking on the peach pit with a brick, the large pile of peaches caught the attention of me and the cheap.

"Fat cow! Where did you pick such a bunch of peaches? ”

"There is an abandoned earth temple on the outskirts of the southern part of the city, and there is a big peach tree there." The fat cow didn't lift his head.

When I heard this, I immediately came to my senses, "Really!? Tell me, where? ”

The county seat is an ancient county town built along the river, with a history of several hundred years, the whole is north-south, the north and south each set up a large archway built in the Republic of China, usually called the south gate and the north gate, Huang Yixian's home is on the side of the north gate, and from the north gate to the south gate there are six or seven miles of land, so I and the cheap city south go less, the suburbs in the south of the city have hardly been there, and I am not familiar with there.

The fat man was seriously knocking on the peach pit, how could he have time to take care of us, he replied casually: "Out of the south gate, you don't have to go far to arrive." ”

"Hey! Don't knock! Let's be clear, where is it! I grabbed the fat man by the collar and dragged him up.

The fat man was startled: "Old ...... Boss, you...... Why are you ......?"

Because I studied late, I was the oldest in the class, and I was relatively tall, so the classmates in the class generally called me Brother Yu or the boss, not to mention the fat man, he worshiped me as the boss.

"You tell me where the land temple is first, and I'll help you smash the peach pit with the cheap later!" I said.

Niu Fat's thinking was relatively slow, and he was stunned for a while before he said with a smile: "Boss, what you said, you have to help me later!" ”

"When did I lie to you, tell me!" I can't wait.

The fat man tilted his neck and thought for a while, then said, "Go out of the south gate and turn left...... No, no! Turn right...... Wait a minute! Boss, which side is right? "Niu Fat has always been left and right, and he has been trained a lot in physical education class.

"I'm X, you don't have to be left and right! Let's just draw it! The cheap grabbed the white paper and ballpoint pen on the desk next to him and handed them to the fat man.

Niu Fat took the pen and paper, and immediately lay on the desk and drew very seriously.

Niu Fatzi's academic performance is not good, he has always been in the bottom ten in the class, and he often fails all subjects, including physical education, but he can only get excellent in painting every time, in the words of the teacher who teaches painting, he has an amazing talent for lines and frames.

Niu Fat Man drew very carefully, and after a while, a topographic map was drawn.

I and the cheap came forward to see, even the big archway of the south gate was drawn, it really looked like that, from the picture, the land temple that Niu Fat said was on the east side of the suburbs in the south of the city, a place near the river, after the first fork in the south gate turned left, and then walked not far to arrive.

I put the picture in my trouser pocket, and I helped the fat cow knock on the peach pit.

As my most haode iron buddy in the class in addition to being cheap, it is necessary to introduce Niu Fat here, Niu Fat's surname is Niu Mingjun, because he is fat, so he got a nickname - Niu Fat, but, don't look at him very rich, in fact, he is not a rich child, and the family conditions can be described as quite bad, his father had a car accident a few years ago, and he was disabled, and the driver who caused the accident escaped again, so that the family was burdened with a large amount of foreign debt, and his mother couldn't stand it, and he ran away with others a year ago, Leaving him and his father to depend on each other. On weekdays, as soon as school is over, he will go to pick up scraps, or go to some construction sites to do odd jobs to earn some money to supplement the family. The reason why I want to smash the peach pit is also to sell it for two dollars.

Out of sympathy, I and the cheap man have always taken good care of the fat cow, and it is common to bring him good food, and from time to time we will lend him a piece or two yuan, of course, this money he has never repaid, but he himself remembers every money. He said that when he had the money, he would definitely return it to us. Not long ago, he was bullied by three senior students at school, and I happened to see it, and without saying a word, I rushed up and each other.

Although Huang Yixian opposed me and the cheap to learn the way of feng shui yin and yang, but very much hope that we can understand a little kung fu, so when we were still very young, he found a local martial artist, and took us to the door to apprentice, the martial artist never accepted apprentices, but he and Huang Yixian are close friends, although he refused to accept us as apprentices, but promised to teach us kung fu, just like that, after we got up early in the morning, we had to go to him to practice for more than an hour. For seven or eight years, no matter the wind or rain, it has almost never stopped.

So when it comes to fighting, let alone peers, even if it's an average adult, one or two may not be my opponents. And the three senior students are two years older than us, in fact, and my age is actually about the same, only fifteen or sixteen years old, after I went up, a set of chain punches immediately put down one of them, the other two were stunned on the spot, before they could react, I was another sweeper, the other one also fell to the ground, and the remaining one saw that the situation was not good, turned around and ran.

After this incident, Niu Fatzi threw himself to the ground for the five bodies that I admired, and since then he has officially worshiped me as the boss.

While helping the fat man smash the peach pit, I said to him: "Fat cow, after school, you can take us to the land temple, anyway, you have to pass by there, and you are familiar with the road!" lest we go wrong. ”

"No, no! I have to go to the North Gate after school! Niu Fat Man said busily.

"I'm X, we're going to the south gate, you just go to the north gate, what are you doing! Play hide and seek with us! The cheap yelled.

Niu Fatzi smiled and said: "Hehe, I heard that there is a store in the north gate that charges two cents a peach pit, and I am going to take it to the north gate and sell it." ”

"What about you! You have at most one hundred and twenty or thirty peaches, and it is worth it to walk more than ten miles for seven or eight cents! The cheap said, took out three yuan from his trouser pocket and shook it: "Come on, I'll give you three yuan, just a little more, don't sell peach pits, take us to the Land Temple!" ”

Cheap is Huang Yixian's only child, and Huang Yixian is nearly half a hundred years old to get a child, so he is very fond of cheap, he has seven or eight yuan of pocket money every day, in the era when a bowl of noodles was only sold for a piece of five, eight yuan is not a small amount! My pocket money is much smaller, less than a quarter of his, and often it is none. However, I have never been jealous of him, because with my relationship with him, his money is mine!

Niu Fat Man stared at the money in the cheap hand, his eyes emitted a green light, but he didn't reach out to take it, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he shook his head gloomily: "I can't take your money anymore, I already owe you twenty-nine yuan and eight cents, and I can't afford to pay it back if I borrow it again!" ”

The cheap glared at the fat man: "Who said that it was lent to you!" I'm here to buy you these peaches! ”

The fat man raised his head and asked puzzledly, "Why are you buying these peaches?" ”

"You care about me! I can always feed the monkeys! ”

"You've got monkeys! When did you raise it? ”

"I'm X, why are you asking so much! In the end, it sells or not! ”

The fat man hurriedly said, "Sell!" Of course sell! As he spoke, he snatched the three yuan from the cheap hand, was stunned for a moment, and then raised his head and asked, "Then are we still going to smash the peach pit?" ”

"It's still a hair! It's said that it's feeding the monkeys, and the meat is smashed, what does it eat! "This is exactly what I want, otherwise there are so many peaches, and I really don't know when I will smash them.
