chewing dragon

Chapter 123

Qi Jingzhi actually didn't care what kind of secrets were hidden behind the red golden knife. After all, even though he got along very well with the snake and the tiger now, he never had the idea of ​​taking it for himself, as long as he sent it back to Liao The Baiyun Palace in Zhouzhou is regarded as a complete merit.

What he cares about is that the decades of fearful and carefree life that Old Wei laughed at before his death seemed to be completely out of some deliberate arrangement.Among the inside information, the four mountain guests in the building at the moment seem to know a little bit, but they keep it secret, and even have some kind of misunderstanding, and based on this, they agree that Linshan Lu Qiyun can have a place in the building.

Perhaps in the eyes of these cold-eyed insiders, Jindao Wei, the great hero of the East China Sea and the leading warlock, is just a small role in a big drama. His sudden adventures, struggling to climb, and sad ending over the past few decades are not worth it. The side details mentioned are only suitable for the tacit gossip between each other before the banquet at this moment.

At this moment, Qian Xiaoren opened his mouth abruptly. It was still the same nonsensical phrase he asked for money when he first met him. Qi Jingzhi's heart was quite heavy. This fellow simply fell into the eyes of money.

"Hey! How many times have I told you? Calling this old man by his name is auspicious. This is just a rumor spread by the world. Do you really think that by calling this old man in person, you can go out to pick up money and get treasure?"

Qing Mang named Shengqing was very dissatisfied, but his temper was too good and his tone was extremely kind, obviously Qian Xiaoren didn't listen to him.

The fellow salivated with a smile and said: "Anyway, it doesn't hurt to yell! The so-called groundless rumors may not be without reason. There are rumors in the world that people who have been laughed at by Brother Huang will not die but will be half disabled! I didn't believe it at the beginning. What happened?"

Hearing this, the elegant middle-aged man in yellow robe and yellow skin couldn't help shaking his head immediately: "It's still pardonable to do evil by heaven, but you can't live by doing evil yourself. You'd better calm down."

As he spoke, he reached into his arms and took out three copper coins of different sizes and colors, then stretched his long arms and placed them on the food table in front of Qian Xiaoren.

"Brother Huang is still a good friend!"

Qian Xiaoren was overjoyed, thanked him, and couldn't wait to pick up one, held it up in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.

However, he only took a cursory look and yelled in dissatisfaction: "Why is Fuhuang's gossip money again? This kind of rotten street thing...Huh?"

Qian Xiaoren swallowed back the second half of his complaint, and looked at the other two copper coins one by one, the joy on his face could no longer be concealed.

He put down the copper coins, grinned at the man in yellow robe and said, "The essence of these three copper coins is restrained and the aura is deep. They are rare and good things. Where did Brother Huang get them?"

The man in yellow pursed his lips, and instead of looking at him, he raised his head and said leisurely: "There is a dilapidated Shenyin gate in Huangzhou, and the ancestor of the county town god at home has exhausted his Yin life and has died more than ten years ago. For a while, I was short of wood to build a mountain house, so I went to the ancestral hall of that family and demolished a beam, and these three Fuhuang Eight Diagrams coins were placed on the beam for the town house."

He paused, and then added: "Actually, there were eight town house gossip coins on the beam at that time, but the other five were heavy and refused to leave the ancestral hall, so I burned them all in a fit of anger! "

As soon as these words came out, Qian Xiaoren opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. Who said earlier that "you can't live by yourself"?Besides, there is no wood in the mountains, so there is no need to tear down the beams of other people's ancestral halls. This is clearly intentional.Presumably, it was not just a few town coins and an ancestral hall that were burned by that fire.

Even the best-tempered Qing Mang couldn't help but look sideways, shook his head and said: "The county town god of that family has only been dead for more than ten years, and there are still five money left, Huang Shanyou is really a bit reckless in this matter. .”

The man in the yellow robe didn't care, as if he was just talking about poetry and papers: "But in the past ten years, I have spent more than three coins of my ancestors, and the unscrupulousness of the descendants can be seen. What's more hateful, they will do it secretly. Those nasty things were planted on my head, although I don't care about a little fame, but I can't tolerate them! This is self-inflicted evil!"

"I see."

Qing Mang nodded, and stopped persuading her, and then opened her snake kiss, spat out a big red copper coin as big as a palm, and flew towards Qian Xiaoren.

Qian Xiaoren hurriedly reached out to catch it, but this time he was much more stable. After looking carefully for a long time, he raised his head happily: "It's really rare to see such a good-looking mountain ghost spending money!"

Sitting opposite, Qi Jingzhi could also see clearly that the big copper-colored coin in Qian Xiaoren's hand was warm and shiny, with dense inscriptions engraved on it.

He also picked up some of these so-called mountain ghosts in Xiaosong Mountain, but he had never seen such a beautiful one.

Seeing that Qi Jingzhi seemed a little interested, Qian Xiaoren pointed the front of the big coin at him so that he could see the inscription on it clearly, and at the same time said: "Brother Lu, there must be such mountain ghosts spending money in Linshan. If there is such a good-looking one, feel free to send it to me. Again, I will never let you suffer!"

Qi Jingzhi ignored him, and turned his eyes to the mountain ghost spending money, and saw two characters on each side of the coin, "Lei Ling" on the left, "Mountain Ghost" on the right, and a long string of inscriptions in the middle, inscription Said: "Thunder and thunder, kill ghosts and cast down spirits, slay demons and ward off evil spirits, keep your mind clear forever, hurry like a law!"

Seeing that everyone was looking at the big coin, Qing Mang took the initiative to explain: "There is a small Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain where Shengmou lives. The mountain ghost spends money. This one is the ancestral coin as a sample coin. Although it is newly minted, it has already produced a little charm."

The man in yellow was taken aback when he heard the words: "Brother Sheng agreed to the temple master? Although he can welcome the Dharma Protector, he must be the orthodox Taoist recognized by the court, but that's all. They all refused to accept it, but now they succumb to a small Taoist temple, which is a bit inappropriate."

The green boa constrictor kissed slightly, seemed to be smiling, and his tone became more and more indifferent: "The ancestor of the temple master was kind to me, and now he has obtained the inheritance of Taoism, and he went round and round at the foot of my mountain to stand and practice meditation. If I don't agree, it will hinder my practice."

Hearing this, the man in the yellow robe sighed, and just kept silent.

The horned owl diagonally across from him gave a weird laugh, and interjected: "Fucking heavenly fate! In my opinion, this is just a nonsense made up by those bull-nosed people! Brother Sheng hasn't eaten blood food for a long time, and my generation is gone The wildness, this is not worth the candle!"

As it spoke, it shook its wings suddenly, and a copper coin with a faint golden light came out from under its feathers, and flew towards Qian Xiaoren: "This Lao Shizi came very easily, unlike you, who demolished houses again. Another prostitution!"

The eagle owl sneered unceremoniously, and then said: "Old owl, there is a barren tower in my mountain, which is my usual place to stay. One night a month ago, a group of tomb robbers suddenly came, muttering What kind of tower is that tower, and there are relics hidden in the underground palace under the tower..."

Speaking of this, its voice became more surly, and its smile became more ferocious: "This is really a big joke! The barren pagoda is a fake monk's temple that claims to be the most effective in seeking children. One Jiazi, I don’t want the world to forget about it and spread such ridiculous rumors.”

"But let's not talk about it. Back then, the lascivious lair was very popular, and the believers really spared no expense when building the pagoda. The gang of tomb robbers dug up the underground palace, and were tortured and killed on the spot by the lewd monks and evil spirits hiding in it. The cracks in the excavated underground palace bricks are full of money, most of which are polluted by ghosts, but this one is so golden that it almost dazzles my old owl's eyes!"

"Of course I was very puzzled, so I took it immediately and saw that it was engraved with the words 'luxuriant branches and suitable for offspring'! I have nothing to say!"

As the only human race on the bright side during the banquet, Qian Xiaoren couldn't help being a little embarrassed when he heard the words, thanked the eagle owl, and then turned his eyes to the head on the table next to Qi Jingzhi: "General Zuo, can you take me with you?" Is there any money?"

If anyone in this building is the most detached, it must be the General Zuo.

Qi Jingzhi came to his senses when he took his seat. When he realized that he had just gone upstairs, it was not Qi Jingzhi who was glaring angrily at the head of the left general, but the handle of the saber knife on his back.

Later, when everyone was commenting on the ancient coins, this one remained silent from the beginning to the end, his angry eyes were fixed on Jian Renshou's blade for most of the time, and he didn't even notice that Qian Xiaoren called out to him.

At this moment, everyone's eyes came together, and what they saw was such a strange scene.

Qing Mang, wearing a black headband and black clothes, immediately explained with a smile: "Brother Lu, don't take offense, General Zuo is the spirit of a hero who died in battle in the mountains, because he often screams in the mountains with his left hand in his hand, We call it Zuo Titou, Zuo General.”

"It's a pity that it lost its saber at the beginning of its metamorphosis, so that it couldn't restrain its evil spirit and lost its mind. Once it saw someone else's saber, it would stare closely, wanting to see if it was the one it lost. No malice."

The man in yellow robe on the side also nodded, and echoed in his mouth: "Yes, in terms of purity of heart, we are not far behind General Zuo. One of you is the spirit of the soul, and the other is the spirit of the strong soul. From now on, you can Get closer!"

"Oh? Lu was just a ranger before he was alive, how can he be compared with Brother Zuo!"

Qi Jingzhi casually said something perfunctory to the man in yellow robe, then looked at General Zuo's head, and couldn't help asking curiously: "I wonder what the saber that Brother Zuo lost looks like?"

Ever since he climbed to the second floor and saw these so-called mountain friends who looked like monsters, Qi Jingzhi has always been careful, but he has a very good impression of General Zuo, and he doesn't even care about the other's vicious eyes.

The reason is that, as the man in yellow said, General Zuo's heart is the purest among those present.

Since Qi Jingzhi put on the spirit mask and entered the Jiao Mansion, whether it was the steward and waiter who welcomed the guests, Qian Xiaoren and Xin Changji, they all expressed fear, disgust and hostility towards him more or less, and thus were masked by the spirit mask. As far as I can tell, let alone the second floor, the green python and the yellow-robed man are far from being as kind as they appear, regardless of the eagle owl who speaks the worst and has the most surly temperament.

Only General Zuo, who had been glaring at him all the time, never showed any malice from the beginning to the end, so Qi Jingzhi would take the initiative to ask.

After being watched and discussed by everyone for a long time, and then questioned face to face by Qi Jingzhi, General Zuo finally came back to his senses.

It turned to stare at Qi Jingzhi's strange face, its head moved slightly on the food table, as if shaking its head.

At the same time, the headless body of General Zuo, who was kneeling behind the food table, raised a hand, reached into a hole in the leather armor on the front chest, and pulled out a piece of blood-soaked blood from inside. rag.

Qi Jingzhi was the closest to General Zuo, and when he saw the rag, he suddenly felt a bloody aura rushing towards his face. Compared with it, the little bloody Qi Huchan had stained before Zangfeng was really is not worth mentioning.

This time, the reaction of the spirit mask was particularly intense, and the venomous wind that remained in it suddenly exploded, as if facing a big enemy, to isolate this blood evil spirit to death.

"Huh? This rag seems to be the corner of a banner?"

This thought came to Qi Jingzhi's heart, the General Zuo over there had spread out the remnant flag on the food table, and there were several blood-stained copper coins that were seriously corroded.

Seeing this, the eagle owl standing on the other side of General Zuo immediately laughed strangely: "Old Zuo, which ancient battlefield did you dig again? Let me tell you, I really can't find the original saber. Find another one." What's even better is, as the saying goes, if the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come!"

General Zuo ignored it, and did not do anything other than toss the blood-stained copper coins at Qian Xiaoren.

The eagle owl's temper and mouth are extremely smelly, and it can sneer at the green python and the yellow-robed man without any scruples. At this moment, General Zuo ignored it, but he didn't seem to care, just smiled strangely: "It's really a stubborn species. ! When you find the saber someday, don’t forget to let me know, so that my old owl can open his eyes!”

On the other end, Qian Xiaoren opened his hands to catch the copper coins, looked down for a moment, and then showed a sincere smile on his face.

Although these copper coins were already corroded, and the quality was beyond words, he did not show the slightest dislike, but instead showed them to everyone like offering treasures.

"Look, this is the most authentic five baht Bingbing money! According to the ancestral system of our Daqi, this money must be minted every time a war is fought to reward heroes and heroes. It's 'eliminating evil and eliminating evil', which contains the evil spirit of the army, which can best ward off evil and bring good luck!"

After finishing speaking, Qian Xiaoren took these copper coins into his bosom with great care.This is a treatment that the other three treasures and ancient coins did not enjoy.

Seeing this, Qi Jingzhi no longer thinks that this guy is just greedy for money.

He secretly looked at the brass-colored brocade robe on Qian Xiaoren's body and the string of copper coins around his waist, and he had some guesses in his heart: "This should be the unique relationship between him and the mountain guests, or even some kind of unique relationship." The method of practice..."

Sure enough, the next moment, I heard the legendary Qing Mang Shengqing who was named Zeji said with a smile: "Xiaojiu, with these accumulations, you should be able to pass through Fanxia and manifest your mind, right? Can that junior of the Xin family overwhelm him?"
