Holy Bone

Chapter 371
It was still in the mysterious palace made of white marble.

Jian Jian stood guard at the gate of the tower.

The old Taoist has been chatting endlessly looking for Chijian, his mouth never rests for a moment, and he uses his words to embolden himself in the dark and gloomy underground palace.

It means that Chijian has a good temper. If Jin'an is here instead, the old Taoist hammer probably has his heart.

Suddenly, the old Taoist closed his mouth tightly, and listened carefully to the movement outside. He heard the footsteps of several people outside the pagoda. Not long after, he saw Jin An, Xu Anping, and Monk Qianshi who had left before. Come back safe and sound.

But looking at the faces of the three of them, it didn't seem pretty.

As soon as Jin An came back, he asked the old Taoist straight to the point: "Old Taoist, no matter what kind of dead person you kill, you can't kill it. Every time you kill it, it will recondense into a human form like resentment, and the smell is extremely smelly."

Ah this?

The old Taoist was a little confused when he heard it, and asked Jin An what happened, did he encounter anything during the time he was away?
Therefore, Jin An explained in detail what happened to the three of them after they left.

He felt that the old Taoist was well-informed, and perhaps he could get some clues through the old Taoist.

After hearing this, the old Taoist stared in surprise and said, "It turns out that the big movements I heard just now are because you, little brothers, encountered a strange corpse and were destroying it."

The old Taoist said without hesitation: "According to your description, little brother, every time the body seems to re-condense resentment, and it is extremely smelly. Why do I feel that this thing is a bit like a calamity? Little brother, could it be that you suffered disaster just now?"

"Everyone here is a member of the Taoist and Buddhist sects. You must be very clear that after death, a breath will be stuck in the throat. After a certain period of time, this breath of death will be spit out naturally."

"Usually the rigor passes, and after the first seven days, when the corpse has softened and the throat bone slides, the dead breath will be spit out."

"As for the smell of this breath, it's just like what you said, little brother, it stinks extremely, it stinks worse than rotten eggs that have been left for a month."

"This breath of death contains the cold nature of corpse poison. It is a highly poisonous thing. If it touches flowers and plants, it will wither instantly. If it touches a living person, the cold air will enter the body. The headache and cough will not heal. Unclear, etc. If it is a person who died in vain, then this breath is not an ordinary breath of death, but the resentment that has been contained in the throat, the breath of disaster, the breath of disaster will not dissipate, and the corpse will be raised when forced to bury. So it is often used by the people It is said that when you meet someone who died unnecessarily, or someone who is not dying, don’t let cats, dogs, crows and other animals enter the mourning hall, because the evil breath in the throat of the dead will make the corpse alive. Have you heard of the cat-faced old lady? That's the reason."

"Even if the corpse is to be moved, it must be moved by close relatives such as parents, wife and children, and the corpse can only be moved from the back to prevent people from accidentally inhaling the evil spirits, and at least squatting at the son's house every day If you scold your son for being unfilial outside the window, if you make a big noise, you will enter the house and eat people."

The old Taoist finally said: "Old Taoist, I have limited knowledge. Through the description of the little brother, I can only think of the possibility of disaster. Other possibilities have not been thought of yet."

The old Taoist frowned in thought, and finally shook his head, indicating that he really couldn't think of other clues.

Monk Qianshi, who is strong and calm, frowned at the side and said: "Although what the old Taoist said makes sense, there seems to be something that doesn't make sense..."

"For example, if the dead man in the jade coffin was really a breath of evil spewing from his throat, why did he take the form of a human and know how to hide in the jade coffin and practice secretly? There are horrifying details in it."

"Another example is that we are the closest to the jade coffin, why didn't people appear abnormal after inhaling a few mouthfuls of calamity by mistake?"

"The most important thing is, where did this bad breath come from, and who was buried in the underground palace with this bad breath, it can't be the master of the dojo thousands of years ago, it's almost impossible."

Although the identity of the monk Qianshi is from the Shakyamuni Buddhist sect, he is not a disciple of the Taoist sect, but when he thinks about it, he feels that even in the Buddhist sect, those tower forests used to bury the golden bodies or relics of eminent monks will never bury a big devil , because this is an insult to the tranquility of Buddhism.

At this time, even Xu Anping nodded in agreement with Monk Qianshi's point of view.

The old Taoist said without even thinking about it: "Of course it's because the two of you are lucky enough to die. There are other opportunities in the blessed land of the cave. One is the 'Tengkong Lidi' fairy body, and the other is the 'Golden Core Seed' fairy." As for my little brother, he is a hard-nosed person, and even those who gather around him will get some protection, hehe."

As he said that, he lifted his buttocks and changed himself to a comfortable sitting position. Nian Xu continued: "Actually, there is one thing that is right. Jade can raise both people and corpses, but don't forget that this jade It can also be used to make magic tools to consecrate light and drive away evil spirits."

"Why do you think that the evil corpses must occupy the magpie's nest and hide in the apse of the mysterious palace to practice? Don't consider another possibility..."

"Perhaps the truth is that whether it is jade coffins, yellow talismans, coffin nails, or changing the feng shui pattern of the underground palace by oneself, restoring the active spring, and using the endless vitality brought by the active spring to suppress the evil spirits in the coffin, they all came from the same What about human hands? Only this truth can explain some details, such as why one breath of Qi can hide in a coffin and practice, for example, why one breath of Qi can build a coffin for oneself."

"You must know that the apse is the central axis of the Xuan Palace. It is a place where the yin and yang are released and the feng shui is good in the mausoleum. This is why the apse of the mausoleum in the past dynasties is used to store ancestors and important coffins. For jade coffins As far as the evil spirit in the palace is concerned, the apse of the central axis is a fire pit, and it will not jump into the fire pit knowing that it is a fire pit. Unless the apse is a place for gathering yin, but the old way I think this mysterious palace is in the geomantic environment According to the scriptures, it does not meet the several conditions of the Yin Gathering Place."

"Back then, the master of Shijiexian must have found a gap in the underground palace by accident when he was looking for a quiet place to practice Shijiexian, and he accidentally discovered this bad breath in the underground palace. The evil spirits escaped from the underground palace and caused disasters, so they found a jade coffin, sealed the evil spirits with yellow talismans and coffin nails, and suppressed them in the eyes of the living spring in the apse of the central axis of the Xuangong Palace."

When it comes to Feng Shui knowledge, old Taoist priests are still the most professional.

Hearing what he said, there was a feeling of enlightenment and sudden enlightenment.

Jin Anchao secretly gave a thumbs up to the old Taoist priest who was secretly lifting his butt. You are still a good old Taoist, making the old Taoist rub his hands and laugh.

Xu Anping nodded and pondered: "After you said this, the old Taoist priest, after careful consideration, it is true that such a possibility cannot be ruled out... But I still can't figure out one thing, if it is really a resentment after death, this disaster Who is it from?"

The old Taoist shrugged his shoulders: "The vicissitudes of the sea, the white clouds and the dogs, maybe we can only find the answer to this matter if we travel back to a thousand years ago when the dojo was still prosperous."

Having said that, in fact, these words are only used to deceive Xu Anping and Monk Qianshi, who is the source of this bad breath, Jin An and the old Taoist secretly glanced at each other, they already have the answer in their hearts.

This is a huge human-shaped tomb. If it is really the remains of the legendary mountain god, then the origin of the calamity is self-evident.

Regardless of whether the mysterious palace in front of me is the central courtyard palace built near the chest, or the heavenly palace palace built in the brain, it is the closest place to the evil breath in the throat.

If this human-shaped mausoleum really has undergone some changes due to the age, it would be normal for it to "live" and condense a breath of evil.

If this bad breath was really spewed out by this underground palace, unless they can completely destroy this underground palace, they will never be able to extinguish that bad breath... Jin An already had an answer in his heart.

Fortunately, the dead man in the jade coffin was temporarily re-sealed with yellow talismans and coffin nails. Even if there was a commotion, there should be no major commotion in a short time. Don't think about it, and under the guise of vigil, sit alone at the gate of the tower and count the gains this time.

It is dark now, and there are many dangers in the underground palace, and they can't go anywhere.

The first thing Jin'an counted was the trophies from the evil ways of Wutong Shenjiao, but they were all evil things, such as baby mummies, scarecrows for lowering heads, placentas, corpse ropes, and a useless one. Severed fingers, some bottles and jars used to raise imps, a few stacks of black talisman paper... These things are treasures for evil people, but they are useless for normal people.

There are not many things that are really useful, just some fruits for eating.

The strength of the Wutong God Sect's demon way is not bad. If he hadn't met Jin An, who could see through his Wutong God's transportation technique, he wouldn't have died so aggrieved.

Jin An burned all the useless things with a fire, and actually contributed nine thousand one hundred virtues.

Then, he counted the big booty this time. King Xiao Ling really deserved to be his rich man, and the number of divine treasures alone was no less than him.

Uh, after searching carefully, Jin An was able to confirm that the pile of divine treasures on King Xiaoling didn't have another hot wheel, so he couldn't make a complete pair.

He decisively killed King Ling this time. One of his goals was to target the other Hot Wheels King Kong rim on King Ling. This will be the most important thing for him to face the coming catastrophe. The means of saving his life, but unexpectedly, his wish came to nothing.

frowned.

Jin An suppressed his emotions for the time being, and continued to count other items. The things that a person can carry are limited. In fact, there are not many really useful things on Xiaoling Wang. The next things are some small items, which attracted his attention the most. Yes, three of those things.

The first is a fruit, the whole body of which is shining green, like a child sleeping with his knees hugged. As soon as Jin An took it out, the pagoda was immediately filled with abundant and amazing vitality.

This was the first time that Jin An had come across a spirit fruit with such vigorous vitality during his trip.

The second thing that attracted his attention was a yellow talisman with astonishing spirituality. The answer can be found in the book of talismans left to him by Master Yuyouzi.

The third thing is two brocade bags. I don’t know if it’s because Jin’an knocked down a brocade bag with Luobao money last time. King Xiaoling was more cautious this time and divided the fragments of Luo Geng’s jade plate into pieces. I bought two brocade bags.

A brocade bag contained nine fragments of Luo Geng jade plates.

The other brocade bag contains seven fragments of Luo Geng jade plates.

A strange look appeared in Jin An's eyes.

Adding his original 38 broken jade pieces, he now has a total of 54 Luogeng jade plate pieces collected.

"I once heard Xiao Ling Wang mention that he once got a pair of ginseng fruits. The green fruits of the pair of ginseng fruits growing on the same stalk are like a pair of golden boys and girls, lifelike. Now there is only one boy ginseng fruit left. Fruit, it seems that King Xiao Ling has already taken one of the ginseng fruits." The movement of the spirit fruit in Jin An's hand was so loud that even Xu Anping was attracted to the entrance of the five-color earth pagoda.

Oh?Jin An asked calmly: "Fellow Daoist Xu, do you know the specific uses of this ginseng fruit?"

This time Xu Anping shook his head, Xiao Ling Wang naturally would not casually tell outsiders about such things.

However, it is not difficult for Jin An to guess the general purpose of this ginseng fruit. Xiao Ling Wang was injured so badly by him before, and a normal person has already been seriously injured and died. .

As a result, when I saw King Xiao Ling again this time, not only did his injuries heal, but even the muscles and bones on his legs healed, so there must be another fairy fate.

Reminiscent of the fact that King Xiaoling didn't carry any other spirit fruit on him, but only this one that looked as lifelike as a child. The reason why King Xiaoling's injury healed so quickly was probably due to the life essence in his hand. It is related to the child's ginseng fruit with amazing vitality, and the majestic vitality acts as a medicine for life and death.

Speaking of this, Jin An thought of the ginseng fruit plant in the mythical Zhenyuan Daxian Wuzhuang Temple. It is said that the ginseng fruit blooms once in 3000 years, bears fruit in 3000 years, and it takes another 3000 years to ripen, and it takes 1 years to eat. .If a person is lucky enough to smell the fruit, he will live 360 ​​years, and if he eats one, he will live 7000 years.

Of course, Jin An would not really naively think that this ginseng fruit is the ginseng fruit of Wuzhuang Guanzhen Yuan Daxian.

However, looking at the ginseng fruit in his hand that looked as lifelike as a child, sleeping with his eyes closed and his knees hugged, Jin An felt a grudge in his heart, and he really couldn't get greedy for it.

Seeming to see Jin An's hesitation, Xu Anping said with a smile: "This is just a fruit that looks like a human being, not a living child, and it doesn't have three souls and seven souls like a human being. There are all kinds of strange things in this world. Innumerable, just like the ginseng, poria cocos, sealwort, ganoderma lucidum, and fleece-flower root in the five longevity medicines of alchemy, as the heat grows, they can grow human limbs and five sense organs, and the longer they grow, the more human-like they are. The medicinal materials used in medicine are not human beings. You can just treat it as a sweet potato or a radish that grows strangely."

Uh.

That being said, Jin An still couldn't get enough of the human-looking spiritual fruit in his hand.

If he really wants to eat it, he must have a psychological shadow.

In the end, Jin An put the child's ginseng fruit into a sack, and we'll talk about it later.

"The people in Tianshi Mansion are the most protective, and they are quite popular in the court. They are used to acting in public on weekdays. If you killed King Xiaoling today, Tianshi Mansion must be furious. There is no room for good things in this matter. In the future You have to be more careful." Although Xu Anping and Jin An have only known each other for a few days, but as soon as they saw each other, he solemnly reminded him that he was afraid that Jin An would kill him, and he would really tear himself apart with the Tianshi Mansion, and would never stop dying.

"Monk Qianshi and I come from Jinque, Zhenguo Temple, Yujing. The Tianshi Mansion can't do anything to us. We are afraid that the Tianshi Mansion will go crazy and anger other people."

"After this incident, you masters and apprentices had better hide your names for a period of time, and then continue to come out after the wind has passed, so as not to be bitten by the people of Tianshi Mansion."

Jin An showed shock: "What! King Xiaoling is dead? Who killed him?"

"I accidentally picked up these things in the underground palace."

Xu Anping: "?"

"!"

Jin An, who had an unserious expression just now, suddenly became serious: "Thank you, maybe after leaving the Paradise, there will be no chance to meet again, even if we meet again next time, it will be because I will abandon this false identity and use another I met you as a stranger, but I still want to say a word of thanks to Fellow Daoist Xu for your kindness."

Xu Anping laughed casually: "You don't need to say thank you for your kindness. On the road before, I overheard the old Taoist saying that you still have a beggar chicken left. If you really want to thank you, why don't you use a beggar chicken to pay for it?" Favor."

After running around for a day, he was already hungry. The reason why he didn't take out the fruits he carried with him to satisfy his hunger was because he was waiting for Jin'an and the others to bring out beggar chicken, so that he could have a meal of wine and meat.

"..."

A few black lines drooped down Jin An's forehead, his emotion just now was all in vain, the other party was staring at his dick all the time.

After he was full of wine and meat, Jin An asked Xu Anping one thing casually: "Friend Xu Dao, do you know why Xiaoling Wang has been collecting so many fragments of Luo Geng's jade plate on purpose? Is there something hidden in it? secret?"
