Chapter 17 The Beginning of Taoism

After lunch, Zhao Mingding and Zhang Bao returned to Zhang Bao's house.

The gold brick is rectangular, about 10 centimeters long, about 5 centimeters wide, and about 3 centimeters high, wrapped in a rag, shining golden light in the light, and five words are engraved in the middle of the gold brick: pure gold fifty taels; Five small characters are engraved in the lower left corner: Xiangxing First Year System.

Zhao Mingding was worried with his hand, and asked heavily, "Fifty taels of gold, how much can it be sold for?" ”

"Three hundred yuan a gram, fifty taels, see how much?" Zhang Bao replied.

"Seven hundred and fifty thousand?"

"It's an antique, much more than that."

"How?"

"As far as I know, the last emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty was named Zhao Yu, the ninth emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty and the last emperor of the Song Dynasty, who reigned for 2 years at the age of 8. His era name is 'Xiangxing'. ”

"So, the place you inadvertently broke into is the emperor's imperial tomb?"

"I don't know about that." Zhang Bao said, "We can't draw conclusions until we go in and investigate." ”

The two discussed for a long time, and finally decided to wait for the New Year, avoid the rainy season in Guangdong, and then go into the ancient city to explore, and then make a decision according to the situation to see what to do.

"If you go to Guangdong with me after the New Year, anyway, He Caishan's small shop is short of manpower." Zhao Mingding said to Zhang Bao, "So we can be together." ”

"That's done." Zhang Bao smiled, "But I want to go to Shenzhen first, deal with the things over there, and then come to Zhongshan to find you." ”

The two chatted with each other, and when they saw that it was dinner time, they went out to find a supper stall, ordered some barbecue, and asked for a case of beer to drink.

"I wonder if you could handle it if you were really asked to pay for it last night?" Zhao Mingding remembered that Zhang Bao had to pay for being late for dinner last night, "Can't you come to me after the dinner?" ”

"Don't you really understand that I'm building momentum for you?" Zhang Bao smiled, "Otherwise, who in the class will pay attention to the two of us?" ”

"But that's too risky." Zhao Mingding said with a wry smile, "There are four tables of wine and food at the class reunion, 50,000 per table, a total of 200,000. Could it be that you have made a fortune, and the mere 200,000 is not in your eyes at all? ”

"I really have 200,000." Zhang Bao took out a bank passbook from his jacket pocket, opened it and handed it to Zhao Mingding, with a balance of 200,000 yuan clearly written on it.

"Since you really have 200,000, why did you want me to pay for you last night?" Zhao Mingding asked curiously.

"I really mean to spend 200,000 yuan to see you, don't you mean to spend 200,000 yuan for me?" Zhang Bao said with a smile.

"You're quibbling!" Zhao Mingding sighed and said, "I don't know who gave me this room card." I'm afraid this favor is not good! However, the first time I asked my first love to consume, I had to pay for Liu Zihou, which was really a shameless thing. As a man, although you should not envy vanity, sometimes you still have to hold up the faΓ§ade. This key card came at a better time! I will get the money as soon as possible and pay back the money I spended. ”

"Maybe the owner of this room card doesn't need you to pay back the money, and he doesn't want you to do anything?" Zhang Bao said, "In this way, you can't go back with this favor." ”

Zhao Mingding raised his wine glass, took a sip of the wine in the glass, no longer thought about the room card, and asked Zhang Baodao: "You have been working hard outside for so many years, but you haven't found a girlfriend to marry?" ”

"I'm not in a hurry, it's important to make money." Zhang Bao smiled, "How about it, do you want me to introduce you to a few girlfriends?" All of them are young and beautiful. ”

"Come on, you!" Zhao Mingding took care of himself and dried up another glass of wine. The world is bustling, all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit. In this world, there are not many people who are willing to spend 200,000 yuan on a meal for their friends.

Zhao Mingding has never been drunk when he drinks, but it doesn't mean that Zhang Bao is not drunk when he drinks. After six cases of beer, Zhang Bao was finally drunk and hazy, and was pushed and pulled by Zhao Mingding to the presidential suite in the Drunken Immortal Building. Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, Zhao Mingding and Zhang Bao made an appointment to meet after the New Year, and then went home separately and were busy celebrating the New Year.

When Zhao Mingding returned home, it was already noon, and he went to Luo Shuming's house, but he didn't see Luo Shuming, and asked his parents, only then did he know that he would not go home for the New Year this year.

After eating lunch and having nothing to do, Zhao Mingding returned to his room and began to meditate, practicing the exercises passed on by his master, and in the evening, after dinner, he went to Luo Shuming, He Caishan, Xiao Longheng, and Zou Yongxing's house for a circle, chatted with their parents for a few words, returned home, and re-entered the room to start meditating, concentrating on cultivation. I don't know how long it took, Zhao Mingding felt that the temperature of his right palm became higher and higher, as the temperature increased, the palm gradually became transparent, and finally emitted a dark red light, the piece of green jade carved into the conferring method loomed in the palm of the palm, and finally shrunk into a red light pill the size of a soybean, starting from the Lao Gong acupoint in the palm of the palm, walking in the eight veins of the body's strange meridians for nine weeks, and finally returned to the Lao Gong acupoint in the palm of the right hand, slowly disappearing. As the light disappeared, Zhao Mingding slowly opened his eyes and found that he was sweating profusely again, and a layer of milky white paste oozed from the surface of his skin, exuding a faint milky fragrance. Zhao Mingding boiled a pot of water, took a shower, scrubbed the milky white paste, changed into clean clothes, and then returned to the room and slept beautifully.

The next day was the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, which was also Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhao Mingding got up early, had breakfast, began to post couplets, helped grandparents kill chickens and fish to prepare Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, ate Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and kept the year until midnight, then returned to the room to start meditating and practicing. Zhao Mingding practiced a dragon scale heart armor, then began to close his eyes slightly, and the Qiankun bag to communicate, after about a pillar of incense time, the glow flickered, the Qiankun bag finally appeared, Zhao Mingding reached into the bag, took out the green jade brick, opened the lid, took out the first gold leaf of "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect", and looked at it carefully.

Zhao Mingding thought at first that "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect" was a book of exercises, but after a closer look, he found that all the records in it were spells and spells, and it was still the general source of charms and spells in the world, so it was called "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to the Sect", which was composed of thirty-six urns and seventy-two runes. Thirty-six urns are the roster of thirty-six gods, which can mobilize 36,000 gods. Seventy-two runes are seventy-two doorways. The way of doing this is to send the gods to accomplish seventy-two different tasks.

Learning spells and spells requires a foundation of true qi, as well as rune paper, rune pens, and rune seals. Use a talisman pen to draw the talisman on the rune paper and stamp the Dharma seal to recite the mantra mantra, so that the spell can produce power and remove demons and subdue demons. Zhao Mingding already had true qi in his body, so he used his index finger as a substitute for writing, his palm as a substitute for paper, and his thumb as a substitute for printing, and tried to practice the first talisman.

The first talisman is an exorcismal talisman, that is, drawing a talisman and chanting a spell with one finger, and the object to be driven will move according to the desired action, such as making a cup suspended in the air.

Zhao Mingding drew a talisman on the gold leaf, pointed with his hand, but the cup to be driven did not move, thinking that the talisman he drew was wrong, so he seriously described it for a long time, but he could read the spell, the cup still did not move, I couldn't help but be anxious, and I practiced it more than 100 times, and the cup was still fixed and did not move.

Zhao Mingding thought for a moment, with the palm of his left hand as the rune paper, with the index finger of the right hand as the rune pen, with the thumb of the right hand as the rune seal, first according to the gold leaf on the rune and the gold leaf to draw the rune mantra, while drawing the mantra mantra, the mantra is good, the mantra mantra is also read at the same time, at the same time stamped with the seal, the whole action and process in one go, without any pause, at the moment of the seal of the left hand, the palm of the left hand turned outward palm outward and shouted: Bah!

Zhao Mingding practiced like this repeatedly for almost an hour, and then pushed the teacup on the table about a foot away out of thin air.

If you yell and shout like this every time you do your work, wouldn't you tell the other party that you are going to do it, so that the other party is ready to prevent and avoid it? Zhao Mingding thought about it, felt that this was inappropriate, after hundreds of tests, finally found a solution, the palm of the hand up, the teacup floated in the air, the fingers flicked out, the teacup flew forward, the fingers moved back, the teacup flew towards himself, with the strength of the idea and showed different strength.

What happens if I flick my fingers? Zhao Mingding suddenly thought of Huang Yueshi's finger magic in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so he concentrated his energy, sank into the dantian, drew talismans and recited mantras, and flicked the index finger of his left thumb against the teacup on the table, only to hear a crisp sound of "dang", the teacup on the table did not move at all, and a hole the size of a fingernail covered the teacup penetrated, which shows that its speed is fast and powerful, if it hits people, I am afraid that there is a risk of life.

Now that the exorcism talisman had been preliminarily practiced, Zhao Mingding put the gold leaf into the box and took out the Ruyi dagger. Unlike last time, this time as soon as the dagger was in hand, it shrank by itself like a toothpick, Zhao Mingding's body trembled, only to feel that the palm of his hand was like being pricked by a needle, the toothpick-shaped Ruyi dagger disappeared, and a red line spread straight towards the arm through the palm, and it was the Yin meridian tendons of the hand that entered the chest.

The red line spread little by little, and everywhere he went, Zhao Mingding's fingers, palms, and arms also turned red, and the dagger slowly shrank with the extension of the red line, and finally disappeared, as if it had become a small red earthworm, burrowing into Zhao Mingding's chest. At the moment when the dagger disappeared, Zhao Mingding was like the rising sun, his whole body emitted a dazzling red light, and after about a bag of cigarettes, the red light slowly weakened, and finally disappeared, and everything returned to normal.

"What the hell is going on?" Zhao Mingding saw that the dagger turned into a red line from his palm and entered his body for no reason, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked, and immediately closed his eyes and looked inward, only to see that after the red line entered his body, it went straight to the dantian, turning into a red dragon with the thickness of chopsticks, coiled into a ball, and lay dormant.

"Since this red little dragon is transformed by the dagger given by Yuan Shi Tianzun, and I have inherited the inheritance technique of my master, I think this little dragon should not be my enemy." Zhao Mingding thought, and his hanging heart was relaxed.
