It was still in the Xuan Palace made of white marble.
He was guarding the gate of the tower dully with his sword sharpened.
The old Taoist priest kept chattering about Jiajian, his mouth never idle for a moment, and he used his words to embolden himself in the dark and gloomy underground palace.
He is good at sharpening swords and has a good temper. If Jin An were to be here, I guess the old Taoist priest Chui would be interested.
Suddenly, the old Taoist priest tightened his expression and closed his mouth. He listened carefully to the movement outside. He heard the footsteps of several people outside the tower. Not long after, he saw the monks Jin An, Xu Anping, and Qianshi who had left before returning.
But the expressions on the three people's faces didn't look good.
As soon as Jin An came back, he went straight to the point and asked the old Taoist priest: "Old Taoist, what kind of dead people can't be killed no matter how you kill them? Every time you kill them, they will condense into human form again like resentment, and the smell is extremely stinky."
Ah this?
The old Taoist priest was confused for a moment and asked Jin An what happened. Did he encounter anything after leaving for a while?
So, Jin An explained in detail what happened after the three people left.
He felt that the old Taoist priest was well-informed, and perhaps he could get some clues through the old Taoist priest.
After hearing this, the old Taoist priest looked at him in surprise and said, "It turns out that those big noises you heard just now were caused by you, little brothers, encountering strange corpses and destroying them to eliminate traces."
The old Taoist priest said without hesitation: "According to your description, little brother, every time the body feels like the resentment has been condensed again, and it smells extremely bad. Why do I think this thing is a bit like disaster energy? Could it be that you, little brothers, have just suffered a disaster?"
"Everyone here is a member of Taoism and Buddhism. You must all know that after death, there will be a breath stuck in the throat."
"After a certain period of time, this breath of death will be spit out naturally. Usually after rigor mortis has passed, the body has softened, and the throat bones have slipped, this breath of death will be spit out."
"As for the smell of this breath, as you said, little brother, it is extremely stinky, worse than rotten eggs that have been left out 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, they will wither instantly. If it touches a living person, it will cause a headache and a black complexion. If it touches a living person, it will cause a person to go crazy and suffer brain damage. If it touches a living person, it will cause a person to go crazy and suffer brain damage. People, then this breath is not the ordinary breath of death, but the resentment and sorrow that have been held in the throat. If the sorrow is not dissipated, the corpse will be raised if forced to bury it. Therefore, people often say that when they meet someone who died in vain, or People who have passed away should not let cats, dogs, crows and other beasts break into the mourning hall, because the bad breath in the throat of the dead will use the living breath to raise the corpse. Have you ever heard of the cat-faced old lady? That's the truth."
"Even if the body needs to be moved, the body must be moved by close relatives such as parents, wives and children, and the body can only be moved from behind to prevent people from accidentally inhaling the evil breath and becoming evil. At worst, squatting in the son's house every day She scolds her son for being unfilial outside the window, and if the fuss gets too loud, he will enter the house and eat people."
The old Taoist priest finally said: "My experience as a Taoist is limited. Based on my little brother's description, I can only think of the possibility of disaster. I can't think of other possibilities for the time being."
The old Taoist priest frowned in thought, and finally shook his head, indicating that he could not think of any other clues.
Monk Qianshi, who was strong and calm, frowned and said: "Although what the old Taoist said makes sense, there seems to be something unreasonable in it..."
"For example, if the dead man in the jade coffin was really a breath of disaster exhaled from his throat, why did he turn into a human form and know how to hide in the jade coffin and practice secretly? There are details in this that make people think deeply."
"For another example, we are closest to the jade coffin. Why didn't people appear abnormal after accidentally inhaling a few breaths of bad breath?"
"The most important thing is, where did this breath of disaster come from, and who was buried in the underground palace with this breath of disaster. It can't be the master of the Taoist temple thousands of years ago. This is almost impossible."
Although the identity of Monk Qianshi comes from the Sakyamuni Buddhism, he is not a disciple of the Taoist sect. Just like the Buddhist pagoda forest only enshrines the golden body or relics of eminent monks, but does not bury a big demon.
Even Xu Anping nodded in agreement with Monk Qianshi.
The old Taoist priest said without thinking: "Of course it's because the two of you are blessed by good luck and your life should not be cut off. You have another chance in the blessed land of Dongtian. One is the 'Vengkong Lidi Immortal Body' and the other is the 'Golden Pill Seed' Immortal Body. My family As for my little brother, he is a tough-minded person, and even the people who gather around him will receive some blessings, hehe."
As he spoke, he raised his buttocks and changed himself into a comfortable sitting position. He twisted his beard and continued: "Actually, one thing is true. Jade can nourish people and corpses, but don't forget that this jade It can also be used to make magical instruments to consecrate and ward off evil spirits.”
"Why do you think it must be the evil corpse dove occupying the magpie's nest and hiding in the back hall of Xuan Palace to practice? Instead, consider another possibility..."
"Perhaps the truth is that whether it is the jade coffin, the yellow talisman, or the coffin nails, he single-handedly changed the feng shui pattern of the underground palace, restored the living spring, and used the endless vitality brought by the living spring water to suppress the evil spirits in the coffin, they all came from the same person Where is the hand?"
"Only this truth can explain some details, such as why a breath of sorrow can hide in a coffin to practice, such as why a breath of sorrow can make a coffin for oneself. Because the apse is the central axis of Xuan Palace and is the center of the mausoleum. It releases Yin energy and gathers Yang energy, which is a good place for Feng Shui. This is why the apse of the mausoleums of the past dynasties were used to store ancestors’ spiritual tablets and important coffins. For the calamity in the jade coffin, this central axis apse is a A fire pit, it would not jump into a fire pit knowing it was a fire pit. Unless the back hall is a place where yin gathers, but I think this Xuan Palace does not meet the major conditions of a place where yin gathers in terms of Feng Shui. "
"Back then, the master of the Corpse Relief Immortal must have accidentally discovered a gap in the underground palace when he was looking for a quiet place to practice the Corpse Relief Immortal. He accidentally discovered this disaster in the underground palace. The master was compassionate and wanted to avoid this. The evil spirit escaped from the underground palace and caused disaster, so we found a jade coffin, sealed the evil spirit with yellow talismans and coffin nails, and suppressed it in the living spring of the apse on the central axis of the Xuan Palace."
When it comes to Feng Shui knowledge, old Taoist priests are the most professional.
Hearing what he said, I felt like I was enlightened and suddenly enlightened.
Jin An quietly gave a thumbs up to the old Taoist priest who was secretly lifting his buttocks, "You are still good, old Taoist," which made the old Taoist priest rub his hands and laugh.
Xu Anping nodded and pondered: "After what you said, the old Taoist priest, after thinking about it carefully, I can't rule out this possibility, but there is still one thing that I can't figure out. If it is really a sigh of reluctance after death, who did this disaster come from? ?”
The old Taoist priest shrugged: "The world has changed, the clouds have changed, and the answer to this matter can only be found a thousand years ago when the Cave Heaven Paradise still existed."
Although he said this, he was actually just using it to deceive Xu Anping and Monk Qianshi. Jin An and the old Taoist priest secretly looked at each other, and they already had the answer in their hearts.
If this huge humanoid mausoleum is really the remains of the legendary mountain god, then the origin of the disaster is self-evident.
Regardless of whether the profound palace in front of him is the atrium profound palace built near the chest or the heavenly profound palace built in the head, it is the place closest to the breath of disaster in the throat.
If this humanoid mausoleum really undergoes some changes due to the passage of time, it would be normal for it to "come back" and let out a sigh of relief.
If this breath of disaster is really caused by the resurrection of this underground palace, unless they can completely destroy the underground palace, they will never be able to extinguish the breath of disaster... Jin Anxin already has an answer in his head.
Fortunately, the dead man in the jade coffin has been temporarily resealed with yellow talismans and coffin nails. Even if there is any commotion, there should not be any big commotion in a short time. Since this breath of disaster cannot kill, Jin An simply temporarily Ignoring it, under the guise of vigil, I sat alone at the door of the tower and counted the gains.
First of all, it seems that the trophies from the Wutong Divine Sect are all evil things, such as baby mummies, scarecrows used to lower their heads, placentas, corpse ropes, a severed finger with no apparent use, and some Bottles and jars for raising little ghosts, stacks of black talismans... these things are treasures to evil people, but are of no use to normal people.
There are not many really useful things, just some fruits to satisfy the hunger.
The strength of the Wutong Divine Sect's demons is not bad. If they hadn't encountered an alien like Jin An and could see through his Wutong Divine Transportation Technique, they wouldn't have died so aggrievedly.
Jin An burned all the useless things with a fire, and actually gave him nine thousand one hundred yin virtues.
Then, he counted the bulk of the loot this time. King Xiao Ling was indeed his wealth-giving Taoist. The number of divine treasures in his body was no less than his.
Well, Jin An searched carefully and determined that there was not another Hot Wheel among the pile of divine treasures on King Xiao Ling, so he could not complete a complete pair.
One of his reasons for decisively killing King Xiao Ling this time was to target the other Hot Wheels Diamond Ring on King Xiao Ling. This will be his most important goal when facing the upcoming catastrophe. Life-saving means.
He frowned.
Jin An suppressed his emotions for the time being and continued to count other items. There are only so many things a person can carry. In fact, there are not many really useful things on King Ling. The next ones are all bits and pieces, which caught his attention the most. Yes, three of them.
The first thing is a fruit. The fruit is full of gleaming green light, a bit like a child sleeping with his arms crossed. As soon as Jin An takes it out, the tower is immediately filled with amazing vitality.
This is the first time Jin An has encountered a spiritual fruit with such amazing vitality during this trip.
The second thing that attracted his attention was a yellow talisman with astonishing spirituality. The yellow talisman was a Yuan Shen magic weapon. He couldn't identify what the Yuan Shen yellow talisman was for the time being. When he has time, he could ask an old Taoist priest or ask him in person. The answer can be found in the talisman book left to him by Master Yuyouzi.
The third item was two brocade bags. I don’t know if it was because Jin An knocked down one of the brocade bags with the treasure money last time. King Xiao Ling was much more cautious this time and divided the pieces of Luo Geng’s jade plate into Got two brocade bags.
In a brocade bag are nine pieces of Luogeng jade plate.
The other brocade bag contains seven Luogeng jade plate fragments.
Jin An's eyes showed something strange.
Including his original thirty-eight jade fragments, he now collected a total of fifty-four Luogeng jade plate fragments.
"I once heard King Xiao Ling mention that he once got a pair of ginseng fruits. The pair of green ginseng fruits growing on the same root were like a pair of golden boys and girls, lifelike. Now only one boy's ginseng is left. Fruit, it seems that King Xiao Ling has already taken one of the ginseng fruits." The movement of the ginseng fruit in Jin An's hand was so loud that even Xu Anping was attracted to the door of the five-color earth pagoda.
oh? Jin An asked calmly: "Do you know the specific uses of this ginseng fruit, Fellow Daoist Xu?"
This time Xu Anping shook his head. Naturally, Prince Xiao Ling would not tell outsiders about this kind of thing.
However, it is not difficult for Jin An to guess the general purpose of this ginseng fruit. The little King Ling was so seriously injured by him before that a normal person would have been seriously injured and died. Even if he did not die, the leg with only a little skin left would definitely not be saved. .
As a result, when I saw King Xiao Ling again this time, not only had his injuries healed, but the muscles and bones in his legs had all grown back. He must have had another destiny.
Thinking back to the fact that King Xiao Ling did not carry any other spiritual fruits, but only this one that looked as lifelike as a child, the reason why King Xiao Ling recovered so quickly from his injuries may be because of the life essence in his hand. It is related to the ginseng fruit of children with amazing vitality. The majestic vitality has the effect of life and death, human flesh and white bones.
Speaking of this, Jin An was reminded of the ginseng fruit in the Wuzhuang Temple of Zhenyuan Daxian in the myth. It is said that the ginseng fruit blooms once every three thousand years, bears fruit once every three thousand years, takes another three thousand years to mature, and can only be eaten in ten thousand years. If a person is destined to smell the fruit, he will live 360 years, and if he eats one, he will live 47,000 years.
Of course, Jin An would not really naively think that this ginseng fruit was the ginseng fruit of Wuzhuangguan Zhenyuan Immortal.
However, looking at the ginseng fruit in his hand that looked as lifelike as a child, sleeping with his eyes closed and hugging his knees, Jin Anxin had a grudge and couldn't be greedy for it.
Seemingly seeing Jin An's hesitation, Xu Anping said with a smile: "This is just a fruit that looks like a human. It is not a living child, and it does not have three souls and seven souls like humans. There are all kinds of strange things in this world. No problem, just think of it as a sweet potato."
