After repeated guesses, Lin Ye could be sure that it was the ignited incense wax that was working. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info, especially this refreshing fragrance, smelled even more peaceful and comfortable for Lin Ye.

"It seems that the incense wax on the altar of the land temple in the previous dynasty is really a good thing, and it can speed up the speed of my prayer and plastic body. ”

Looking at the statue of the Martial Emperor that had been molded with a golden body, a big stone in Lin Ye's heart finally fell to the ground, and at the same time, he quickly flipped through the "Persona of Boqing", wanting to find out if there was any record of the incense wax of the Land Temple.

"Yes, this allusion to "Fragrant Wax Raising Ghosts" seems to be related to fragrant wax. ”

flipped to an allusion to "Fragrant Wax Raising Ghosts", and Lin Ye was instantly attracted. This allusion is that in the remote Teng'an Mansion of Liangzhou, there is a lazy person named Chen Gui, who has four walls, and often eats the last meal but not the next meal, and is a well-known scoundrel in ten miles and eight towns.

But suddenly one day, this Chen Gui didn't know what luck he had, made a windfall, made a big mistake, and bought several mansions and more than a dozen beautiful maids one after another. The locals were all talking about it and were envious of Chen Gui.

And Xu Boqing, who happened to travel here, also heard this rumor, so he curiously sneaked into Chen Gui's home at night to investigate. Only then did I find out that Chen Gui didn't know where to pick up a "money-greedy ghost", kept it in the cash cabinet, bought the best fragrant wax, and secretly lit the incense wax at night to feed this "money-greedy ghost".

After eating Chen Gui's fragrant wax, the greedy man flew out of the window and returned with a cloth bag about an hour later. Chen Gui greedily took the cloth bag and opened it to see that there were two ingots of gold inside, each of which weighed ten taels.

It turned out that the reason why this Chen Gui suddenly developed was that he relied on incense wax to raise a "money-greedy ghost" to steal gold and silver for him every night. Xu Boqing, who saw this scene, appeared and persuaded Chen Gui to quickly kill the "money-greedy ghost" with filthy things such as feces and urine, otherwise he would harm others and himself after all.

It's a pity that Chen Guicai is obsessed with money, and with such an easy way to obtain money, how can he be willing to kill the money-greedy ghost? On the contrary, he warned Xu Boqing not to harm his good deeds. So, Xu Boqing had no choice but to shake his head and sigh, and no longer persuaded Chen Gui.

Later, about a month later, Chen Gui, who was getting richer and richer, suddenly died violently overnight, and all the valuable items and money in his house disappeared out of thin air, and no one knew what happened? Only Xu Boqing, who had walked by the market, smiled helplessly when he heard these words, and said: "The disaster of desire, people die for money!"

"Is there really a ghost in the world? And there is such a money-grubbing ghost who can steal gold and silver for people? If I suddenly pick up such a money-grubbing ghost like Chen Gui, can I resist the desire to get money without it?"

After reading this allusion, Lin Ye couldn't help but ask himself. Having been plagued by poverty since childhood, he has a lot of desire and thirst for money. However, Lin Ye, who is familiar with the books of sages, has always adhered to the belief that "a gentleman loves money and takes it in the right way", even if he is so hungry that his chest is close to his back, he never takes a penny from money that does not belong to him.

"Just like Xu Boqing said in the story, raising this kind of ghost thing and doing reckless things is to harm others and yourself after all. If I pick up such a money-grubbing ghost, where will I feed it any fragrant wax, and I will destroy it with a soak of children's urine. ”

Feeling that Fang Cai's own desire seemed to be shaken, Lin Ye hurriedly straightened his thoughts and continued to look down with a smile, which was Xu Boqing's annotation behind the allusion to "Raising Ghosts with Fragrant Wax". It explains in detail the principle and scourge of incense wax to raise ghosts.

What really feeds the greedy ghost is not the incense wax itself, but Chen Gui's greedy desire for money. The incense wax is just a medium bridge, and when the incense wax is lit, the greedy man can absorb Chen Gui's greedy desires more quickly. And in the end, when Chen Gui's desire for money became bigger and bigger, the greedy ghost was also fed stronger and stronger, and finally devoured Chen Gui's soul in one bite, and swept all Chen Gui's money and treasures, to find the next food full of desire.

"Huh, Xu Boqing not only annotated the role of incense wax behind the scenes, but also pointed out the realm of Taoist cultivation by the way. ”

Lin Ye hadn't had time to digest Xu Boqing's explanation of "Wax Raising Ghosts", but he saw the content that really interested him.

People have three souls and seven spirits, which Lin Ye learned before in "The Bride Lost Her Soul". It's just that for a while, Lin Ye couldn't confirm whether this statement was correct. And at the back of this "Fragrant Wax Raising Ghosts", Xu Boqing pointed out that Taoism cultivates the heavenly soul and the two spirits of Tianchong and Linghui among the three souls and seven spirits.

According to the depth of Taoist cultivation, the realm can be divided into: enlightenment, concentration, sitting, out-of-body, night travel, day travel, exorcism, manifestation, yin god and other realms. In a normal sense, the ghost in the mouth of the common people is actually the state in which the soul of a person has not been reincarnated after death, because a certain desire is relatively strong and remains in the world, similar to the state of night travel after the soul of the heavenly soul in the realm of Taoist cultivation.

And after reaching the Yin God realm, he needs to face the Heaven and Earth Thunder Tribulation. After surviving the thunderstorm, he is called an immortal, who can cast powerful spells and supernatural powers, and can call the wind and rain to do anything.

However, to Lin Ye's regret, for the Taoist cultivation method, Xu Boqing's annotation also mentioned such a few realm names, as for how to cultivate and what are the differences between each realm, Xu Boqing did not mention a word.

In this way, it made the curious Lin Ye feel that there was a monkey's paw scratching in his heart, and his heart was itching, but he was helpless.

"The incense wax of the previous dynasty can have such a magical effect, so it is very likely that the saying that people are composed of three souls and seven spirits is indeed true. The strange illness of the eldest lady of the Dong family should be the loss of the heavenly soul and the earth soul. Okay, then I'll go to the list tomorrow as soon as possible to cure the disease, and as long as I earn the five hundred taels of silver, the patriarch will not think of using taxes to oppress me again in the future. ”

However, from this information, Lin Ye still deduced some useful information, and immediately made up his mind to unveil the list for treatment tomorrow morning.

The night was getting deeper, Lin Ye was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, and a few candles around him were flickering with flames, so that Lin Ye would not feel cold in the cold night. At this time, the black Xiaoding that Lin Ye casually threw under the bed was frantically absorbing the aroma released after the incense candle was lit.

Early in the morning of the second day, Lin Ye, who had rarely slept such a warm night, stretched his waist and found that his spirit was exceptionally good today. Taking advantage of the fact that the hateful patriarch Lin Liangzhu had not yet rushed over to collect taxes, Lin Ye locked the door and hurried to the Dong Mansion in the city.

Squeaky ......

Lin Ye stepped on the thick snow on the street, braving the severe cold and hurried towards the Dong Mansion. Before he arrived at the Dong Mansion, Lin Ye saw a long queue at the entrance of the Dong Mansion, and said strangely: "Why are there so many people?

After walking in, Lin Ye remembered that today happened to be the last day of the end of the month, and it was also the day when the Dong Mansion recruited family slaves. There was a long queue at the door of the people who were vying to be slaves in the Dong Mansion, from teenagers to bad old men in their fifties and sixties.

"Everyone is ready to stand up for me! Come over one by one, this old man, too old, still wants to come to our Dong Mansion as a handy......man? And you stinky boy, what strength do you have with thin arms and legs? Go and ...... as you go."

Lin Ye stepped forward, but heard a familiar voice shouting arrogantly at the door of the Dong Mansion. When I looked closely, I saw that it was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old servant of the Dong Mansion, with a very strong body, wearing a cotton hat and cotton coat, and he was proudly picking one by one.

"Is it Liu Long? No, it should be called Dong Long. It seems that he did well after selling himself into the Dong Mansion, and he actually became a small steward. ”

Lin Ye recognized the steward in charge of the selection, who was a little beggar who was looking for food on the street with him two years ago. At that time, it happened that the Dong Mansion was recruiting slaves, so Dong Long pulled Lin Ye to go with him. But Lin Ye told him that he was determined to study and take the entrance examination to get ahead, and he never thought of being a slave of someone else's family.

Who would have thought that Dong Long would think that Lin Ye was ridiculing him for practicing himself, so he had a big fight with Lin Ye, and since then he has held a grudge against Lin Ye.

In two years, Dong Long has changed a lot, and the thin and weak little beggar has become a strong man. But Lin Ye hasn't changed much, he is still a thin and weak poor scholar.

Therefore, Lin Ye had just stepped forward and wanted to uncover the notice posted by the Dong family at the gate for a large amount of money to seek medical treatment, Dong Long recognized him at a glance, and immediately showed surprise on his face, pointing at him in a weird way and sneering:

"Yo! Isn't this Lin Ye, who is preparing to be the top student in the imperial examination? Didn't you disdain to be a slave and be supported by others? Isn't it the same now, in order to survive, you want to come to the Dong Mansion to be a cow and a horse for people? Dare to ask where is the arrogance of your so-called scholars? Haha......

Lin Ye was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that Dong Long thought that he, like these people, would not survive and came to the Dong Mansion to sell himself as a slave.

As he spoke, Dong Long also smiled at several other Dong Mansion slaves beside him, "Have you seen it?" This is the stinky boy Lin Ye I told you about who doesn't know the height of the sky, does he think he is a Wenqu star?

At the beginning, I kindly wanted to bring him to Dongfu for a full meal, but if he didn't come, it would be okay, and he even scolded me for practicing myself. Now you see, isn't he willing to send it to the door to do his own thing?haha......"

When the surrounding house slaves heard this, they also laughed, pointing at Lin Ye and sneering.

Facing the ridicule and ridicule of Dong Long and those house slaves, Lin Ye didn't take it to heart at all, and said with a smile: "Dong Long, you are mistaken. I didn't come to Dong Mansion to sell myself into slavery. ”

"Hmph, are you still hard-mouthed? This early in the morning, didn't you rush to my Dong Mansion to sell yourself as a slave, did you tell me that you came here for a walk?" glared at Lin Ye with slanted eyes, still looking down on him very much, and asked in disbelief.

Lin Ye smiled and shook his head, but he didn't answer him immediately, but walked straight to the notice board at the door of the Dong Mansion, and tore off the notice that the Dong Mansion had spent a lot of money to seek medical treatment for the eldest lady, and then solemnly held the notice and said to Dong Long and the others: "I'm here to treat your eldest lady in the mansion!"
