The butcher's footsteps slammed at the door, and after a while, he was a little surprised, and said outside the house, "Xiaoshi, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Shi really didn't expect that all of a sudden, the small jar would be directly shattered in front of his eyes in such a way that he couldn't laugh or cry, and his mind was confused, and he subconsciously said perfunctory when he heard the words, "Uh...... I'm fine, uncle, I accidentally broke a teacup. ”

"Oh. The butcher breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't seem to have the intention of knocking on the door to come in, but asked casually outside the house, and said, "I'll come over and ask if you're hungry, why don't we go eat something first?"

Shen Shi casually glanced at the remains of the small jars on the ground that had been broken into pieces, and he didn't have time to take a closer look for a while, so he hurriedly ran over and opened the door, only to see the butcher standing in the corridor outside the door, and when he looked at the sky, he didn't know when it had darkened.

The butcher looked at him, smiled, and said, "I'll take you to eat something, come back to rest after eating, sleep well at night, and go to worship Xianyan tomorrow." ”

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay." With that, he walked out and closed the door.

The butcher walked out with him, and said casually, "Shall I call someone to help you clean up the house later?"

"Hmm...... No need, a little thing, I can clean it up myself. Shen Shi exhaled lightly and excused himself.

The butcher didn't pay attention either, and the two walked out like that.

The courtyard stood quietly in the light of dusk, and the door separated the inside and outside, and at this moment, no one could see what was in the room.

About half an hour later, the footsteps sounded again, but it was Shen Shi and the butcher who turned around, and at this time it was almost dark, and the butcher told Shen Shi a few words, and then went back to the room first.

Shen Shi looked up at the night that had already darkened, and slowly walked back to his door, for some reason, his mood suddenly became a little uneasy, and he didn't push the door open immediately for a while, but thought about it carefully.

When the small jar fell off the table and broke, because of the sudden arrival of the butcher, Shen Shi felt like he was being caught, and in a hurry, he just glanced at the ground and ran out, what was sealed in the small jar, I don't have any impression in retrospect, but I vaguely remember that in a pile of debris on the ground, there seemed to be a black thing mixed in, but what it was and what shape it was, I really didn't see it clearly.

At that time, I was in a hurry to deal with the butcher, and I didn't think much about it, but in retrospect at this moment, it seems that what was closed in this jar should not be some kind of ghost thing Yin Spirit and the like that I was thinking about, and I really scared myself.

Shen Shi smiled bitterly at himself, took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and walked in.

The room was already dark at the moment, but Shen Shi still remembered the location of the things in the house, closed the door and groped, and soon found the candle flint placed on the cabinet, after lighting it, the warm and dim candlelight lit up, bringing a bit of light to the room, and also reflected his figure on the wall, flickering and swaying.

Shen Shi took the candle back to the table, and sure enough, he saw that there were still fragments scattered on the ground next to the table, exactly the same as before he left, so he squatted down cautiously at the moment, put the candle on the ground, and then slowly separated the fragments by candlelight.

I don't know how many years ago this small jar was an antiquity, and its appearance had long been pitted and eroded, but after it was broken, he saw the inside of the fragment of the small jar through the candle flame, but Shen Shi found that the inside of the small jar was actually very smooth and delicate, reflecting a faint green color under the illumination of the candlelight, like the light of a precious gem.

Shen Shi sighed softly, his spirit was lifted, if the outside of this small jar was as green and smooth as the inside, looking at the degree of meticulousness of this craftsmanship, it was definitely not an ordinary jar, but it was really a good thing that could only be used by rich and wealthy families.

With this, his eyes widened wider, and he carefully sorted them on the ground, and the pieces were removed one by one, and soon under the pile of debris, a small black stick-like thing appeared in half of its body, and met his eyes.

Is this what the small canister is sealed?

Shen Shi took a closer look, but he couldn't see any clues, he just wanted to reach out and get it in front of him, but after hesitating for a moment, he reached out and picked up a piece of fragment next to him, and gently flicked the black stick.

The black stick rolled twice, revealing the whole from the pile of debris, about three inches long, pure black in color, but the material was not gold or wood, Shen Shi took the candle closer and looked at it carefully, but found that this material was a bit like a kind of silk cloth that he had never seen before, and the whole black stick looked very much like a rolled scroll.

"Is it a scroll ......" Shen Shi muttered to himself, before that, he still didn't think it would be this kind of thing, hesitated for a moment, reached out and picked up the small black scroll, the place in his hand felt soft and fine, and it was really something similar to a kind of satin. I took it in my hand and looked through it for a while, but I found that there was no opening on this strange black scroll, and there was no gap in the dark circle, and there was nowhere to open it.

What's going on here...... There was such a strange thing hidden in the strange small jar, Shen Shi was really a little confused, and at this moment, suddenly a faint golden light flashed on the edge of one end of the small black scroll.

Shen Shi's gaze moved over, and he saw that the round curly tail was originally unusual, but it seemed that he had inadvertently brought that side closer to the candle flame because he wanted to observe this thing carefully, and under the heat wave near the flame, a layer of black powder seemed to appear on the curly tail, and that golden glimmer was revealed because he kept rubbing this small black scroll just now, and inadvertently wiped off some of it.

At this point, he simply rubbed the end of the small black roll a few times, and sure enough, he saw the delicate black powder rustling down, and the golden light quickly brightened, and after a while, when the black powder fell clean, Shen Shi's body suddenly fell to the ground, and his movements seemed to freeze, looking at the things revealed under the black powder in a daze.

It was the pattern of a sunflower, with seven leaves, with a gorgeous and brilliant golden color, sparkling in the darkness and radiating a brilliant light.

Seven-leaf golden sunflower!

※※※

At that moment, Shen Shi only felt that his breathing stopped, and then a huge joy suddenly surged into his heart, it was a kind of excitement from the heart, not because of how valuable the thing in front of him would be, in fact, until this moment, Shen Shi still didn't know what this small black scroll was, and whether it was valuable to him. But he was still genuinely happy, so happy that he couldn't help but clench his fists and wave them vigorously.

At this moment, he just said loudly in his heart: "Sure enough, it's really a seven-leaf golden sunflower, I really read it right!"

This can be regarded as a kind of reward for his eyesight, even if no one knows at the moment, but as long as he knows that he is not mistaken, Shen Shi is still immersed in a huge sense of satisfaction. In this way, after a while, he slowly settled down, with a smile on his face, and at this moment he even had such a thought in his heart, even if this little black scroll was not a good thing, but it seemed to be indifferent.

However, this small black scroll specially marked with seven-leaf golden sunflower is obviously undoubtedly the thing used by the demon emperor clan in the Heavenly Demon Court era in the past, and it was sealed in a jar as a funeral object, which makes it difficult to guess what it is.

Shen Shi suppressed the excitement in his heart, carefully observed the small black scroll again, turned it over and over, as before, on the scroll itself, still did not find any place that could be opened, and finally after pondering for a while, he still focused on the heraldic pattern of the seven-leaf golden sunflower.

He stretched out a finger, gently placed it on the golden sunflower, rubbed it, and the golden light flashed softly from the edge of the finger, but other than that, there was no movement, Shen Shi frowned, thinking that this is not the mechanism to open the scroll, so how should it be opened?

His gaze swept over the sunflower coat of arms, hesitated for a moment, and his fingers went down, moving from the sunflower flowers to the seven leaves below, each of which was gently pressed, the first, second, and third, the black scroll had always been unresponsive, which made Shen Shi really a little frustrated, so he pressed it until the sixth leaf, when Shen Shi had almost completely lost hope and was ready to give up, suddenly, there was a crisp "crackle" from inside the small black scroll sound, Shen Shi only felt that the ground in his hand suddenly lightened, and the surface of the scroll, which originally seemed to be seamless and intact, suddenly cracked a thin slit.

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed, he almost jumped up, and hurriedly took the black scroll and lifted the candle by the way, sat directly on the table, and then slowly opened the black scroll by the light of the candle flame along the gap.

The candle flame burned quietly, emitting a warm light, and in front of the young Shen Shi's eyes, it illuminated the inside of the scroll that was slowly opened, and the first thing that caught his eyes in front of him were three vertical rows of large characters:

Yin and Yang Mantra.

※※※

Inside the black scroll, there are rows of small golden characters, neatly and uprightly arranged on the black cloth, under the dim candle flame, I don't know how many years have passed before the words have reappeared, faintly and silently reflected in Shen Shi's eyes, flashing with golden light.

In a trance, it was like an ancient and distant past, the gold with an unruly atmosphere and a commanding storm, after many years of dust, finally lit up a little light again.

Shen Shi watched silently, from the beginning to the end, his expression also changed from the initial joy and excitement, and slowly calmed down, gradually with a little doubt, and a little dazed.

The black scroll in front of him, through the golden text on the scroll, he probably knew what it was, in fact, this should be a fragment of a spell with the full name of "Yin Yang Mantra".

The name of the yin and yang spell, the first three big characters are clearly written, and it can't be clearer, but the reason why it is said to be a fragment is that there are some simple explanations of this Chinese word, and the yin and yang spell is divided into two kinds: "yin spell" and "yang spell", of which the yin spell has four spells, and the yang spell has five, as for the black scroll recorded in front of him, there is only one spell in the yang spell, called the "clear heart spell".

Shen Shizai carefully read this heart-clearing mantra, then slowly put down the scroll in his hand, was silent for a long time, his brows furrowed, and after a long time, he whispered to himself in a not very confident tone:

"It's like a ...... Refreshment spells?"

(Before I knew it, two days a day was better, and I found myself slowly adapting to it...... ）
