Holy Bone

Chapter 109 Green Qian Liu and Copper Coins
After Jin An returned to Chang County, he had a thought.

Suddenly wanted to stand on the highest point in Chang County——

From the city wall gate tower, you can have a panoramic view of Chang County.

Jin Ansi and this.

I can no longer suppress this thought in my heart.

So Hun'er floated and floated, the more it floated into the sky, the more difficult and difficult it was for Hun'er.

The surrounding air is getting more and more turbid, Hun'er is like a stone cow trapped in a swamp, every time he advances, there are obstacles.

During the day, the east sun breaks all evil spirits, clear qi rises, and turbid qi sinks.

But at night.

It is the alternation of yin and yang.

Yin flourishes and Yang declines.

The turbid air in this world rises, and the clean air sinks.

And these turbid qi caused great harm to the soul.

If it wasn't for Jin'an's body with six Ding Liujia talismans, strong soul, blessed by the divine aura of the twelve righteous gods, coupled with being warmed and nourished by the divine aura all the time, and recovering quickly, if it was the other first time the primordial spirit came out of the body I am afraid that people who are taller will not even be able to rise three feet.

Because there are gods who hold their heads up three feet.

Crossing three feet is the real difference between ordinary people and Taoists.

Jin'an finally floated to the highest tower in the whole city, and suddenly he had a wide field of vision, relaxed and happy, and had a panoramic view of the whole Chang County.

In the darkness of night, the outline of the city wall of Chang County can be seen faintly. It is not an equilateral square, but a rectangle tailored to local conditions.

The night was quiet at this time.

The ancients went to bed early.

The Wanjia was pitch black, except for a few scattered places where the lights were brightly lit, and they were scattered everywhere.

Most of these places are all-night places like Goulan tile shops and brothels, or wealthy families with large mansions and courtyards.

Jin'an Hun'er floated on the tower, nodding from time to time, commenting on Chang County, but after that, Jin'an Lingtai kept jumping up and down.

A breath locked him.

Jin An looked for it in surprise, but when he looked up, he found that it was a Tai Chi gossip mirror hanging on the city tower that was just shining on his position.

"Is this the township of Chang County?"

There are two types of folk towns.

One is used to press books, paintings, and characters to prevent their corners from folding.

There is another kind of township, which is Zhenyang House, a township for eliminating evil and avoiding changes.

There are many kinds of townships in the latter, such as mahogany swords, gossip mirrors, soul bells, swords, guns and axes.

The moment Jin An and the Taiji Eight Diagrams Mirror looked at each other, Jin An was startled, suddenly a vast expanse of whiteness appeared in front of him, as if his soul had been pinned down by a ray of divine light.

The divine light is burning his divine soul.

Jin An was shocked.

He struggles.

Struggling hard.

How can mortals look directly at the gods.

The gods are unpredictable.

This Tai Chi gossip mirror is definitely made by an expert, it is stained with the karma of Shinto incense, it must have come from a world-renowned Taoist temple with real immortals, and it is worshiped by incense day and night, so it is so miraculous that it can fix lonely souls and wild ghosts , can exorcise evil spirits.

It is definitely not a fake magic weapon that ordinary country Taoist priests just dance with fake peach wood swords and say that they have been consecrated successfully.

Jin An tried his best to resist the divine light that had anchored his soul.

He was extremely nervous, thinking that he was going to break here today, but he didn't know that the divine light that was still fixed on Jin'an one moment, suddenly disappeared the next moment.

Because Jin An still maintained the previous posture of looking up at the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams Mirror, so when the white light in front of him disappeared, Jin An noticed the strangeness on the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams Mirror at first glance.

The Tai Chi gossip mirror is covered in dust and has been splashed with filthy black water, which has broken the spirituality.

The filthy black water has dried up, sticking dryly to the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams Mirror.

The divine light that anchored Jin'an just now came from the last spot on the Taiji Eight Diagrams Mirror that was not covered by the dirty black water, but now even the last divine light has disappeared.

This Taiji gossip mirror has been covered in dirty black water for too long, and all spirituality has long since disappeared.

It was just the last ray of divine light.

Jin An looked at the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams Mirror, which had lost its spirituality and had been completely reduced to an ordinary object, and was shocked.

"Who is deliberately destroying the township of Chang County?"

"Could it be the paper piercing man and the necromancer secretly hiding gunpowder in Chang County?"

Across the night, Jin An looked at the other city gates that could only be seen with hazy outlines in the night...

Will the other city gates also have suppressors for eliminating evil and avoiding change?
But even the treasures of the East Gate have been deliberately destroyed, and the spirits of the other gates should have been destroyed by the dirty black water, right?
Jin An pondered.

However, because of the previous experience of being trapped by Shenguang, Jin An didn't dare to continue to check for a while.

Not afraid of ten thousand.

Just in case.

Jin An planned to wait until the daytime to talk to Butou Feng personally about the matter.

There are eight doors in "Qi Men Dun Jia".

The magic light of the suppressor fixes the doors of Shuu, Sheng, Huo, Du, Jing, Death, Jing, and Kai, exorcising evil spirits and protecting the people of one side.

The township had been conspired long ago to destroy it, and something big might happen...

"Wen Mo Temple?"

Jin An pondered for a while, and then he started to drift towards Wenwu Temple.

Although there are six Ding Liujia talismans protecting the soul, Jin An can walk several feet away from the ground, but now it is the night when the turbidity rises, and he seems to have two legs stuck in the quagmire. He can walk, but after all, he can't. It floats fast on the ground.

So Jin An lowered his altitude.

After falling back to the ground, continue to float all the way to the direction of Man Mo Temple.

I don’t know if it’s because of the destruction of Chang County’s township. Jin’an re-entered Chang County this time, and looked at Chang County, which had sunk into darkness, darkness, and everything was quiet, and felt that everything was wrong. .

It's like the gloomy Senluo Hell.

Trapped in great terror.

Jin'an flies all the way to Wenwu Temple, passing through houses when encountering houses, passing through pillars when encountering pillars, directly passing through rocks and rocks when encountering mansions, and drifting rapidly all the way.

suddenly!

In the calm night, there was noise and the sound of rolling dice reached Jin'an's ears.

Jin An was slightly surprised.

"Is there a private gambling house near here?"

Curious, Jin An began to search for the sound and drifted away, and finally he drifted into a private gambling stall.

Like brothels and gambling stalls, they are closed during the day and steal at night to make a living.

These gamblers sleep during the day, and at night, like night mice, they are full of energy. Each gambler holds a Pai Gow in his hand, and the more he gambles, the more energetic he becomes.

At this time, there are dozens of people hiding in this private gambling stall, and they are gathering people to gamble, and the popularity is lively.

Jin An's soul is out of his body, and he has six Ding Liujia talismans to protect him. He is not an ordinary lonely ghost, so he is not afraid of the popularity here.

And those gamblers in the gambling stalls who stay up all night, suffer from ups and downs of emotions every day, and suffer serious loss of energy, naturally cannot see Jin An's soul.

Jin An took a brief look on the sidelines. These gamblers played Pai Gow and dice the most. At this moment, there was a loud noise at the next table, and someone shouted out a leopard.

Leopard Jin'an knew.

Mammalia, cat family.Leopard is a large carnivorous animal with four toes on its front feet and four toes on its front feet. It lives in forests, bushes, wetlands, deserts, plateaus and snow-capped mountains.

Jin An backed up on the spot, Hun'er backed up on the spot and floated towards the gambling table.

When he saw the gambling table, many gamblers were clasping their fists to congratulate one of the gamblers, and everyone's eyes showed envy.

It turned out that the dealer rolled the dice to guess the number, and rolled out three identical dice. If a gambler guessed the leopard correctly, the dealer would pay three times.

The other gamblers all lost to the dealer.

In fact, after the banker lost three times the money, he still made a fortune. Jin An was a bystander. He saw the banker and the gambler who had guessed the leopard inadvertently looked at each other, and Jin An immediately understood. .

This is the dealer's own game.

There are winners and losers at the gambling table, and seeing others win everyone can stimulate these red-eyed gamblers to continue to gamble without suspecting that the dealer is cheating.

Nine out of ten bets in the casino lose, nine and a half of them cheat, and half of them are on the way to learn how to be cheaters.

Gambling harms people, advise people not to gamble.

"Ok?"

Jin An seemed to see something, his eyes were surprised.

When the dealer took away the copper coins lost by the gamblers at the gaming table, Jin An noticed that among these copper coins, several copper coins were of an incorrect color.

His soul went straight through the gaming table, got stuck in the middle of the gaming table, and looked closely at the copper coins in front of the dealer.

Take a closer look at this!

Jin An's complexion changed!
really!

There is a small part of copper coins in it, which are the leaves of ancient copper coins after the miraculous appearance of Qingqianliu!

But the gamblers in front of them, as well as the bankers of the gambling stalls, seemed to have not discovered that the copper coins in their hands were actually copper coin leaves, and they continued to gather and gamble with high emotions.

But the next scene!
Jin An was even more shocked!
I saw those gamblers who lost money, as the ancient copper coin leaves in their hands lost to the dealer, their popularity rose, and they were all sucked away by the ancient copper coin leaves.

People have the seven emotions and six desires, great joy hurts the mind, great anger hurts the mind, great sorrow hurts the mind, great thinking hurts the mind, great sorrow hurts the mind, great fear hurts the mind, and great shock hurts the mind.

These gamblers are the easiest to bother their minds, the most prone to emotional ups and downs, and the most likely to hurt their own souls.

This is the description of lost soul.

It's like thinking about it for a long time.

Another example is that children are most likely to be frightened. After a child is frightened at night, he becomes stupid the next day.

Another example is a couple who had a child in old age but died prematurely due to the weak constitution of the child. A kind of lost soul.

When these gamblers lose money, their grief and anger are the most debilitating, and they lose their souls faster, just like a big hole is torn open in an intact body, and their three souls and seven souls slowly leak out.

If the three souls and seven souls are lost, the person will die.

But the three souls and seven souls of these gamblers are slowly sucked away by those strange copper coin leaves in the emotional ups and downs. cause trouble.

I just thought it was because I was weak recently.

So I went to the pharmacy to buy some tonics to nourish my body.

However, what they lost was their souls. No matter how much these ordinary nourishing herbs were eaten, they could not restore the injured souls. In the end, they all died violently on the hospital bed.

Thinking of this, Jin An hurriedly checked the expressions of the other gamblers on the gaming table one by one.

Before, because I didn't pay attention to it, I didn't notice anything unusual. This time, my mood was different. When I observed carefully, I found that all the gamblers around this gambling table had abnormal complexions.

Not sallow and emaciated.

It just looks ugly.

Or people are muddled, their eyes are numb and dull, and their actions and reactions are slow, just like a walking dead.

The last person was obviously the one who hurt the soul the most, and his time was approaching.

And he, who was already so heartbroken that he was exhausted, with only the last trace of his withered soul left, could live another seven days, ten days. With the dealer rolling out leopard dice this time, he lost all his coppers. The last bit of lamp oil on his body was also absorbed by the coin leaves.

He lost all his money, staggered away like a walking corpse with a numb expression, but he had just taken two steps, not more than three steps, bang!
The man fell straight face down, his teeth were smashed, blood flowed all over the floor, and he died immediately.

There are three souls and seven souls after death, but there is no soul after death.

Because it was already absorbed by the leaves of copper coins.

Jin An's heart was covered with a haze.

This time he carefully looked at the copper coins in the hands of each gambler.

It was found that although it was not the copper coins in his hand, they were all the copper coin leaves of the willow.

But the copper coins in almost everyone's hands are mixed with a few copper coin leaves.

However, the weird thing is.

All these gamblers seemed to be unaware, as if they could not feel the different touch and weight of the copper coins at all, and they still gambled around the gaming table.

Every time they lose money, their emotions will go up and down, which is the most frustrating, and then they will be sucked away by the copper coins they lost.

All of this can only be seen by Jin An, who is in the out-of-body state.

Ordinary people don't notice it at all.

In their eyes, these copper coin leaves from Cyclocarya paliurus seem to be able to trade copper coins?
Just like my own three souls and seven souls can be traded with these copper coins!
……

As someone fell to the ground, a small commotion broke out nearby, but at this time these people didn't know that the dead person was dead, and they cursed a few times, which disturbed their gambling.

"Jin Kuan, Jin Kuan, what's wrong with you?"

"Damn you, don't scare Laozi!"

Seeing the commotion here, the gamblers rushed over to check the situation. They yelled at the person who fell face to the ground, and finally panicked when they saw that the person on the ground remained silent.

These thugs rushed to help the people on the ground.

As a result, his hands were dead and his body and skin were different from the coldness of ordinary people.

Raising his hand tremblingly, he tested his breath, no...no breath!
"People are dead!"

The face of the gambler's thug changed drastically. He was not out of sympathy, but because he was cursing bad luck.

If someone died in the gambling stall, the government would definitely come to investigate them.

At least there will be no business for several days.

Recently, the annual Qingming Temple Fair happened, and this was the time when the most foreign tourists came to Chang County. They originally thought that they could make a fortune during the five days of the temple fair.

Who knew that such a bad thing would happen.

"What a bloody bad luck! Hehe!"

These thugs in the gambling stalls are all low-grade hooligans who dare to kidnap and kill people. Jin Kuan died in the gambling stalls.

He yelled with bad language.

Scolding Jin Kuan why he didn't die sooner or later, but died in their gambling stall.

……

After Jin An drifted out of the gambling stalls, he began to walk through the walls and inspect the houses one by one.

He checked the coppers of every household in Chang County.

The situation is not optimistic at all.

He checks twenty households!

Almost seven out of ten have copper coin leaves at home!
It's just that these people are not prone to emotional ups and downs like gamblers, and get angry and frightened, so the symptoms on their bodies are not obvious.

I usually just feel weaker.

Susceptible to wind and cold.

As well as a shorter lifespan than elsewhere!
The more Jin An watched, the more frightened he became, his soul turned cold. When he floated out of a private house, he seemed a little lost, and he was restless all the way.

Jin An is clear.

I was shocked and hurt my soul.

He was indeed shocked this time.

Ten years ago?

The more Jin An thought about it, the more he felt terrified when he thought about it. Green money willow, green money willow, willow is both a yang tree and a yin tree!

Jin'an Mosai suddenly understood.

He thought of an adventure that Guangping Sanren once had with willows in "Guangping Youshuotongganlu".

Regarding willows, there have always been two folk theories. There is a saying that willow branches can nail souls and beat evil spirits.

Therefore, there is a custom among the people to fold a willow branch at the door of the house, implying that it can ward off evil spirits and block unclean things to follow the owner's house.

However, there are also customs in some places, which regard willow as a shade tree with heavy yin and can nourish yin.

Among the folks, in addition to the trees of the five yins, there are also several kinds of ominous trees that are unfavorable to the yang house in terms of feng shui.

The trees of the five shades are pine, cypress, locust tree, elm, and juniper.

Among the trees that are not conducive to the yang house, there is a saying that "don't plant mulberries in the front, don't plant willows in the back, don't plant ghosts clapping hands in the courtyard, apricots can hurt people, and plum trees bury dead people".

Here they refer to mulberry, willow, poplar, apricot and plum trees respectively.

Because Sang Tong mourns, it is a kind of tree that is more taboo in Yang Zhai.

The willow tree is very yin, and the folks usually call it the soul-calling flag and the mourning stick, and the wicker is often used to stick on the tomb.

The ghost clapping is the poplar tree, because the poplar tree has luxuriant branches and leaves, and it rustles outside the window at night, like ghost hands beating the window.

Eating too many apricots and plums hurts people.

In fact, the reason why there are two completely different sayings about willow trees is mainly due to the influence of the environment.

If it grows on the bank of the water and grows along the flowing river, it is a sun tree, and it is a willow branch in a jade bottle in the hands of a Bodhisattva.

It can nail the soul and get rid of the unclean things on people.

I am most afraid of encountering the kind of willows that grow in the deep mountains and old forests.

Because the mountains are cloudy and cold, it is easiest to hide mountain spirits and wild monsters. Lonely ghosts like to hide in the mountain forests that block out the sky and the sun, hiding in trees, and staying in the trees to harm people.

So the willows here are also shade trees.

Guangping Sanren once touched an old willow tree in the old forest in the deep mountains.

Crucified the souls of many.

But Jin An felt that this green willow was very different from the Yinmu willow described by Guangping Sanren!

Qingqian willow grows in a city that is open and flat, popular and prosperous, and receives people's incense every year. Besides, Changxian County is built along the Yinyi River, and the water vapor is heavy. , they should all be Yangmu willow trees, right?
What's wrong?
Was it miraculous overnight ten years ago?
Jin An couldn't suppress his own thoughts, the more he thought about it, the more he wanted to see whether the green willows in the daytime, the green willows in the evening, or the green willows in the evening, were Yang trees that turned into harmful yin trees ?

In the state of spirit, one can see scenes invisible to the naked eye, and Jin An's spirit floats all the way to Wenwu Temple.

Along the way, he checked a few more households, feeling even more heavy...

The outline of the Wenwu Temple at night gradually appeared before Jin An's eyes!
