We are the lucky ones among the misfortunes. We were lucky enough to save our lives and, thanks to the glory of the Golden-Eyed Chicken King, we were able to drink the soup made from the flying centipede meat, which not only removed the poisonous gas inhaled from the body, but also Enhanced physical fitness.
Especially those who practice martial arts like Liu Qingshan and I feel that our strength has increased a lot.
After eating and drinking, under the questioning of Wang Man and others, Du Jun began to talk about our heroic deeds. This time Liu Qingshan was added, and the two of them boasted about the experience in the temple.
Unless you have personally experienced this kind of thing, you will feel it is more or less illusory.
It was easy for others to say that Liang Li was a determined person. He opened his mouth several times to refute something, but hesitated because of the life-saving grace, but he still couldn't hold it back.
"Hey, Du Jun, Du Jun? I know you experienced some very dangerous things in the temple. There were a lot of centipedes, centipedes and so on.
"But let's forget about those other things. It's just a talisman? Phoenix, it won't be good if word spreads." Liang Li said seriously.
"Don't mention it, you ungrateful scum, I can tell you that these are all true." Du Jun immediately retorted.
"I remember that when we brothers were in our hometown, we experienced a lot more than this. Have you ever seen a sheep swallowing clouds of smoke? Have you ever seen a big python that can turn into a beautiful woman? Don't believe it yet.
"You'd be scared to pee if you saw the pants."
Du Jun was angry when he saw Liang Li's bald head. If he hadn't insisted on roasting a sparrow, we wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation.
"You are talking nonsense. Who is so scared that they wet their pants? Let me tell you, our fearless revolutionary spirit is not afraid of your feudal and superstitious ideas."
When it comes to matters of principle, Liang Li is absolutely unambiguous, and his savior cannot change his beliefs.
The two were about to start bickering mode when Lan Yue interrupted them.
"Zhou Quan, what is going on in the temple? I have never heard of these things in the world when I grow up? According to Master Xiao Liu, you are not an ordinary Chinese medicine doctor?"
"I've heard people talk about your kind. It's a very special profession. What does it seem like you're called a doctor?" Lan Yue lowered her head and thought for a moment.
I was stunned. I didn’t expect that Lan Yue really knew a lot. It seemed like she had heard some rumors about exorcism.
"Traditional Chinese medicine used to be called Langzhong. It's just that the things I learned were a bit more complicated. There are a lot of things you haven't heard of before." I nodded and said.
"This industry is broad and profound. It has many schools, such as Taoist medicine, Tibetan medicine, Mongolian medicine... and mysterious witch doctors. There are also many very weird and scary methods, such as the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate, blood therapy, fire therapy, Miao Jiang Gu magic and so on.
"Actually, everything remains the same. It's all based on the five elements of the meridians of the human body... That's all. I'm a miscellaneous scholar. I know a little bit about each school, and I mainly focus on Taoist medicine."
I carefully considered my tone and said some mixed truths and falsehoods.
At the moment, I don’t want to make the identity of the evil doctor public. No matter what era it is, it’s better to keep this kind of profession a bit mysterious. It will be troublesome if someone with ulterior motives targets you.
"The things in the temple are actually not that mysterious. The world is so big, there must be many strange things or animals that we don't know about..."
I changed the topic and focused on telling them about the ruined temple. Now I had no worries and could talk about it casually.
Although it is mainly my own inferences, I feel that they are not far from the facts.
…
There should really be some valuable things hidden in this temple. Both the old Taoist and the bandits came here for these belongings.
As a result, a fight broke out between the two groups, and the robbers killed the old Taoist. However, they did not expect that in addition to the treasure, there was also a giant centipede in the temple.
Originally, the centipede would not come out to bite people easily if it was devoted to cultivation, but as evil will be punished, these people had to do trouble under the nose of the centipede.
After the robbers killed the people, they ate hot pot in the main hall. The smell attracted centipede saliva to drip into the hot pot, causing all these people to be poisoned by centipede poison.
There was no one like me around them to treat them, so they had to wait for death, and they struggled a lot before dying. The death was extremely horrible.
It took two days for the body to be discovered by the villagers. They definitely didn't know the origin, so they made up a random story about God opening his eyes.
By chance, there was indeed lightning and thunder that day, and this scene happened to be recorded by lightning. In the years to come, history would occasionally reappear when there was lightning.
Many reasons combine to create the legend of the ghost temple.
"It is said that these robbers were killed because God opened his eyes, and they had something to do with it. Such a bizarre coincidence would never happen in a hundred years. The centipede indirectly avenged the old man." I finally did it. a summary.
"This is how this ghost temple came about after a long time of turmoil. Doctor Zhou, if you don't tell me, I won't be able to figure it out in my life.
"What retribution. I killed so many people and they deserved to be poisoned." Liu Qingshan sighed with emotion.
"I don't know if the temple is a ghost or not. We were really unlucky. We got lost and caught up to eat in the temple. We almost repeated the tragedy of those bandits." Du Jun said with lingering fear.
"Yeah, it's too dangerous! I'm scared just thinking about it." Yang Hong shuddered and hugged her arms tightly.
Everyone else looked at Liang Li.
Liang Li said awkwardly: "I didn't mean it. Who would have thought that would happen?"
"Monitor, please don't blame yourself. In fact, we also have to thank you."
I smiled and said, "If your roasted sparrows hadn't been so fragrant and attracted the centipede, its saliva might have flowed into our broth. If we were all poisoned, that would be truly unthinkable."
After I said this, several people laughed and felt that it made sense. Fortunately, Liang Li was not so unpleasant to their eyes.
"Hey, Doctor Zhou, do you think there is really a treasure in the temple? Since the old Taoist and the robber are all dead, shouldn't the treasure still be in the temple? Where is it?" Liu Qingshan suddenly asked.
Yes, they are all dead, so the treasure should still be there? Why was there no news about the treasure?
"Hey, what's so weird about this? If you ask me to say that maybe this treasure is a fucking lie, let me ask you? There aren't even a few legends of treasures popping up in our mountainous nooks in China."
Du Jun looked like he had traveled all over the country and had rich experience: "Besides, who dares to say that there are only a few robbers and old Taoists. It is also possible that they all have accomplices who took away everything early. The remaining people are here." There’s a fight!”
"Yes, what Du Jun said is possible, but I tend to believe that something was really hidden here, and it may not necessarily be all treasures.
"I found this in a broken statue. Take a look. Does anyone know what material this is made of?"
I took out the purple object. This thing was discovered with Liu Qingshan. There is no need to hide it from everyone.
Oops, there really is something in this temple!
Several people focused their attention.
This is a statue of a strangely shaped god that is about one foot long. Judging from the weight, it should be solid. It is purple in color. It sits cross-legged with its knees crossed, its palms clasped together in front of its chest, and countless arms growing out of its back to form a circle. It is most likely the legendary multi-armed Tathagata. .
But this look is not so kind. On the contrary, his eyes are wide with anger, and he looks a bit fierce.
Du Jun took it and looked at it over and over for a long time without understanding it, then handed it to Wang Man next to him.
After Wang Man read it, he gave it to Yang Hong... and finally it ended up in Lan Yue's hands.
Lan Yue said in detail: "This material seems to be made of copper. Judging from the craftsmanship, it is a cultural relic from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This style should not be from the Central Plains, but more of a style outside the Guan.
"Looking at the lines and techniques, this is definitely not made by ordinary craftsmen. It is probably a product of the imperial palace in the past. There cannot be many in stock. Zhou Quan, you'd better put it away."
Lan Yue once again impressed me. He is really knowledgeable about Chinese historical relics, and what he said was clear and logical. Basically, he was right.
There was only one thing that she failed to distinguish, and this is exactly my expertise. The material of this statue is not copper. Like my Five Elements Money, it is made of the legendary purple gold.
