Kowloon pull coffin

Chapter 13
I asked Old Ghost Bai if Huang He's refusal of the Wang family's engagement would offend Guanzhu Chen.Although it was the Wang family who started this incident, it was Chen Guanzhu who secretly offended. If he wanted to deal with Empress Huang He, he had a lot of ways.

"You don't have to worry about this, before this year's Xiayuan Festival, Lao Niubi will not do anything to your wife." Bai Laogui said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Do you know what day the New Year's Eve is?"

"Isn't it just the water officer who solves the problem?"

There are three festivals in Taoism, the heavenly officials in the Shangyuan give blessings, the local officials in the Zhongyuan forgive sins, and the water officials in the Xiayuan relieve evil. This Xiayuan Festival is the day when the water officials relieve evil.

"Yes, the day that the Taoist priest cast the golden dragon head to settle his grievances was the Xiayuan Festival. Before the Xiayuan Festival comes, the old Niubi will never fall out with your ghost wife, because he still has something to ask her for help."

"Uncle Bai, according to what you mean, is there going to be a big change in Nine Dragons Cave during the Xiayuan Festival this year?"

"What should come will always come. Whether I go to block the river or not, the result will be the same. Taoist priests have already planted evil causes. Now that a hundred years have passed, it is time for the evil results to come."

Bai Laogui's tone was full of pity, as if he had foreseen that terrible things would happen in the future.I asked him what the consequences would be, but he refused to say anything.

A few days later, the Wang family came to visit again.

Apart from the person surnamed Wang, the people who came this time were followed by four strange old women carrying a soft sedan chair.

The four old women combed their hair meticulously, wore gray gowns, and double-eared hemp shoes on their feet. They looked a bit like the Republic of China.

The soft sedan is exquisite, carved with gold and jade.Hanging on the door curtain are real imperial green jadeite beads. As the old woman moves, the jadeite beads make a jingling sound, which is very pleasant to the ear.

We also learned the name of the one surnamed Wang later. His name is Wang Hansheng, and he is the current head of the Wang family.

When Bai Laogui saw him, he frowned and looked disgusted, but when he saw the soft sedan chair and the old woman behind him, his expression changed instantly, showing a very respectful look.

Having been in contact with Bai Laogui for so long, in my heart he is no longer that gloomy corpse hunter, but a mysterious elder with abilities.

Previously, the old white ghost was oppressed by the aura of a man with a scar face, but it was just a joke, and he didn't want to take business from the Wang family.In fact, if there was a real ruthless fight, a water monkey like Bai Laogui would kill countless ruthless people, definitely not something Scarface could bully.

I was surprised to see the respectful expression on Old Ghost Bai's face, even when Chen Guanzhu came, he didn't do it to this level.So I was very curious about the identity of the person inside the sedan chair, and thought to myself, I wonder which god the Wang family has invited to be a lobbyist this time.

"Wang Hansheng, you really think highly of me, old ghost Bai." The old ghost said something dissatisfied to Wang Hansheng at first, then walked up to the soft sedan chair, leaned over and said, "The body of the Buddha is a daughter of gold, and the old ghost couldn't go far. Welcome, please forgive me for being rude."

"My royal family has a request for you, so I should pay you a visit. You came here uninvited, and I am the one who should be accused." A soft female voice came from inside the sedan chair.

The name Buddha is used on women. I only know the Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing Dynasty, which makes me even more curious about the identity of the person in the sedan chair.

As the woman's voice fell to the ground, the old women on the left and right sides of the front row stretched out their hands to lift the emerald curtain at the same time, while I stared intently at the inside of the sedan chair.

Sitting in the sedan chair was a young girl, no older than 20 years old.

The skin is as fair as a piece of fine porcelain, and she is wearing an ancient Hanfu, with her hands folded in front of her body, she is as quiet as an ancient picture scroll.

Sadly I couldn't see her eyes because they were covered by a black ribbon.

"Who is she?" I asked Bai Laogui in a low voice.

Bai Laogui glared at me, and quickly made a silent gesture to me.

"The water-dividing sword is very important to my Wang family. I'm not here to embarrass Senior Bai. I just want to ask you to take me to the Nine Dragon Cave."

"The Nine Dragon Cave is a forbidden water area, and the Buddha has a noble status, so why do you have to put yourself in danger?" Bai Laogui persuaded.

"Whether it's successful or not, I always have to take a look."

After the girl finished speaking softly, she took out an antique porcelain bottle from her wide sleeves.

There is no doubt that the things contained in this porcelain vase must be very valuable, because as soon as she took it out, Wang Hansheng changed his face and opened his mouth as if to say something, but finally remained silent.

"Wang Jiazu handed down three merman tears, one was used by me to fix my eyes, and one was given to Master Chen of Huiji Temple, and the last one was used as a reward for Senior White afterwards."

I guessed that the contents in the porcelain vase were very precious, but I never expected that what was contained in it was Merren's Tears, one of the Four Treasures in Water.

Shark tears are the tears of sharks.

In ancient history, there used to be a mysterious creature called a shark with a fishtail and a human body living in the South China Sea.Legend has it that sharks are good at weaving, and they can make dragon silk that does not get wet in water, and tears can form beads.

The ignition point of shark oil is extremely low, and a drop can burn for several days without extinguishing. There is an ever-burning lamp made of shark oil in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.It is precisely because the sharks are almost full of treasures that they were wiped out during the Qin Dynasty.

At the beginning, Qin Shihuang trained a large number of alchemists in order to find the elixir of life.The elixir is hard to find, so in order to deal with the First Emperor, these alchemists came up with the idea of ​​the South China Sea Merman.In the beginning, it was just plotting against Long Xiao and Shark Tears, but after looting these two things, they started plotting against Shark Oil.

As can be imagined, the mermaids were wiped out.

It is precisely because the mermaids have become extinct in modern times that the preciousness of the mermaid tears is particularly evident.Rao is the old ghost Bai, who is also showing a bit of excitement at this moment.

"Tomorrow night is the [-]th month. When that time comes, I will use the rotten boat passed down from my ancestors to take the Buddha to the Nine Dragon Cave!"

I thought that Old Ghost Bai would refuse it very hard, after all he said that the water-dividing sword is of great use to me, so he should keep it for me.Who knew that he couldn't resist the temptation of Merren's Tears, so he agreed to the matter on the spot.

After they left, I asked Bai Laogui who that girl was, why he called her Buddha, and why he treated her so respectfully.

"Well, I, the old ghost, do not respect the sky, the earth, gods and Buddhas, but there is a kind of person that I cannot disrespect." The old ghost said with a sigh.

"What kind of person?" I asked curiously.

"I told you before that the Taoist priest was able to see the eyes of the Yellow River at the bottom of the Yellow River, and the girl who came today can do it too. The Taoist priest can do it with the help of Taoist magical powers, but this girl's ability is Little by little tempered from inhuman pain, that kind of pain, you can hardly imagine..."

Bai Laogui said that besides the skill of digging treasures, the more important skill lies in treasure hunting.All the treasures of heaven, spirit and earth have their own treasure aura, and treasure hunting requires a pair of eyes that can see through the treasure aura.

The girl who came today is the contemporary palm-eyed Buddha of the Wang family, and her status in the Wang family is much higher than that of Wang Hansheng.

The person chosen to be the Buddha was thrown into a secret room without light from the time of birth in the womb. There was nothing in this secret room except gold, silver and jewels.

The children who were selected at first could not see anything. After a long time, the longing for light caused their eyes to change slowly, and they began to see the faint treasure.

This is a long process, and living in a claustrophobic space for a long time can easily make people's minds twisted and crazy.And due to long-term blindness, many children have become blind due to vision degradation before they can see Baoqi.

Compared with the real Buddha, the madman or the blind are still lucky, at least they don't have to suffer anymore, and the real pain begins after seeing the precious energy.

The five elements of human eyes belong to wood, while Baoqi is the leakage of metal energy.The five elements produce restraint, gold restrains wood.At this time, there will be a large number of people who will be blinded by tears because they were stabbed in the eyes by the golden energy.

This is not over yet, after those survivors who have not become blind get used to the precious energy, at this time the trainer will start throwing those treasures that can manifest human form into the secret room.

There is a saying outside the customs that ginseng dolls are tied with red threads, but in fact, dead objects such as gold, silver and jewelry also have the ability to manifest human form.In the jargon, it is said: the gold and silver boy Yujiaoniang, the little pearl girl, and the ugly man with strange weapons.

After the treasure psychically manifests in human form, it has human consciousness. When it finds out that someone is spying on it, it immediately attacks the spying person, and the attacking part is still the eyes...

I was speechless for a long time after hearing Bai Laogui finished speaking.

She never expected that there is such a great bitterness hidden behind a Buddha, no wonder Bai Laogui respects her so much.

"Do you think I agreed to help them because I couldn't resist the temptation of the Mermaid's Tears?" After explaining the origin of the Buddha, the old ghost asked me.

"Well, I don't blame you, Guanzhu Chen even dared to use the Order of the Yellow River for Yurenlei." I nodded and said.

"Fuck off, don't compare me with the old cow's nose, I want this shark's tears not because of you."

"For me? How good are the shark's tears to me?" I asked curiously.

"It's not good for you, but it's great for your ghost daughter-in-law..."
