Zhentian coffin

I am very familiar with Liu Laodao. He is always smiling and joking, like an old urchin. The greatest pleasure every day is to play tricks on me and play with me. It is rare to see him serious.

The fight the night before yesterday was a rare time for him to be serious, but now, he has reproduced that serious expression, and he rarely touches the mahogany sword at ordinary times, and keeps it by his side, just in case.

"Old man, don't scare me, what are you doing, what's going on tonight?"

I asked Liu Laodao, I am afraid now, this kind of thing happens one after another, even if my mental quality is strong, I can't bear it, it will never end.

"Just in case, there should be nothing tonight, the sad thing is six or seven days later"

Liu Laodao shook his head, I counted the days, six or seven days later, wouldn't that be the first seven days between Mr. Li and Boss Chen?

However, Laodao Liu's worry was not unreasonable. Let's not say that Boss Chen was made so miserable by others, and then Mr. Li died very unwillingly, with lingering grievances, and it was extremely easy to cause accidents.

Especially in the first seven times of returning to the soul, if it is not handled well, it will be a disaster.

"Put the daughter of the Chen family outside to bask in the moonlight and absorb the essence of the moon, which can speed up the healing."

Immediately, Liu Laodao said to me again, I looked around, and finally put the soul-cultivating wood on the window sill of my room, where the moonlight can shine, and it is not in the yard, so there is no possibility of being walked by .

"Speak, old man, what else do you have to say?"

Based on my understanding of Liu Laodao, he said this to avoid Chen Menghan, and there must be something inconvenient for her to hear.

"It's still about Boss Chen. I asked someone to ask. Boss Chen was skinned alive. Do you know what that means?"

"what"

I let out a low cry, my face was full of disbelief, skinned alive, then Mr. Qin must be so cruel, this, this, I dare not think about it, I shudder when I think about it, goose bumps all over my body, skinned alive, Boss Chen How miserable it is to die.

"This is where the problem arises. According to the history books you read, some esoteric sects or cults make people into magic weapons. The best ones are human bones or human skin, and the most evil ones are the most powerful after they are made. What is meant is to take human bones or skins alive. That Lord Qin most likely wants to make Boss Chen's skin into a magic weapon. Think about how painful Boss Chen was when he died. The weapon is more powerful"

Liu Laodao’s words reminded me of some history books. What he said was absolutely correct. Esoteric Buddhism or cults like to use human bones or skins to make magical instruments, especially in the Qing Dynasty. There are many such records.

It is said that after the two commanders of the Northern Expedition of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were captured, they died Ling Chi. After their death, their bones were made into magic weapons and stored in the palace compound.

Doing so has many meanings, such as demonstrating force, deterring the enemy, and suppressing the resentment of the killed, making it a magic weapon they can use.

This Boss Chen is also treated in the same way. I'm afraid Liu Laodao guessed that it was almost inseparable, and he also revealed a meaning, that is, Master Qin didn't intend to let it go like this, he will come back, and he will come back The time is when we accept the severe test.

The last time Liu Laodao won against Mr. Qin was not easy. You can tell from the movement around the temple. If he has another powerful magic weapon, it will not be certain whether he will win or lose. If Liu Laodao loses, then I will be miserable too. , he will definitely not let me go.

No wonder he didn't let Chen Menghan hear it. If Chen Menghan found out, he would have to go berserk again, and he couldn't even be comforted.

"Old man, what should we do, we can't just sit and wait for death."

I asked again in a low voice, sitting and waiting to die, that's not okay, you can't just sit and wait to die.

"I'm at a loss. Then I don't know the details of Mr. Qin. What can you do?"

"Here, old man, you ask me, who should I ask?"

I'm speechless, he can't help it, so I have it?Where can I find someone.

"I'm not worried about myself. Even if Master Qin has a powerful magic weapon, he won't be able to take me down for a while. The key is you. Can you block his blow?"

"That's right, I'm the most dangerous, old man, no, Uncle Liu, you can't abandon me at this time"

I thought, yes, Liu Laodao is so powerful, he seems to be fine, what the hell, I am the most dangerous.

"Did you think of my uncle at this time? It's too late, you can ask for more blessings."

"Don't, don't, Mr. Liu, please do me a favor. I'm only sixteen. I don't want to die. Your lord has a lot of people. Don't tell me. You must have something to do, right?"

"There is a trick, I don't know if you are willing to do it"

"Do it, do it, go up the mountain of knives, go down into the sea of ​​fire, if you say a word, I will do it immediately"

This is not the time to talk about integrity, what dignity, don't want it.

"Go up the mountain of knives, go down into the sea of ​​fire, that's not the case, take me as your teacher, I will teach you some ways to save your life"

"Apprentice teacher? Okay, no problem, I'll make tea and burn incense"

I was stunned for a moment, but I have no objection at all. It’s not once or twice that Liu Laodao wanted to accept me as an apprentice, but I refused before. The reason is very simple. This Liu Laodao usually blows too much, who knows how capable he is , It looks like there are more magic sticks.

But after going through this incident, I found that Liu Laodao still has some skills, otherwise he would not be able to win against Master Qin. Since he has skills, it is okay to worship him as a teacher.

"Wait a minute, the matter of apprenticeship is not just for fun. People of the older generation are apprentices. They have to be a teacher for a day and a father for the rest of their lives. They also have to study for three years and work for three years. Do you know what it means?"

Liu Laodao stopped me again. Of course I know what he said. In the past, it was not as simple as going to school for the ancients to learn art. It was to be a teacher for a day and a father for a lifetime. It is nothing to worship a master and a godfather The difference is that in the future, whenever the master has a wedding or funeral in his family, he will have to pay for it, and he will have to give a big gift for his birthday.

And during the period of learning art, at least six years, not to mention three years of learning art, the master's house includes food and housing, but you don't want the salary, and after you finish your studies, you have to work for the master for three years. The same as when they were apprentices, those carpenters and masons took apprentices in the same way in their old age.

Of course, there is also an advantage in doing so, that is, the master will treat the apprentice as his own, and will teach the skills wholeheartedly, and will rarely hide them privately.

"I said, Uncle Liu, don't you just want my private money? It's really not much."

I asked suspiciously, isn't this old man trying to cheat me out of his own money again? I really don't have much money, and I can't afford enough food and clothing at ordinary times.

"Worship or not, who cares about your little money"

Liu Laodao rolled his eyes, money, he naturally wanted it, but it was incidental, some things were just inconvenient for him to say, he Liu Laodao had no children, and he was old, so it was a trivial matter that no one would pass on his skills. But it's a big deal for no one to take care of the elderly. He doesn't want to die in a ruined temple in the future, and his body is not found until the body stinks. That would be too miserable.

"Bah, bah, Mr. Liu, look at my mouth, don't be surprised, I promise, I promise, why not?"

I hurriedly accompanied the smiling face, and gave myself two slaps on the face, because I figured it out, no matter what Liu Laodao wanted, just give it to him, there is not much private money, give it, be an apprentice, be a grandson, do it, anyway Liu Laodao also has a great kindness to me, and it is also right to give him a pension and be a grandson until the end of his life.

Only now did Liu Laodao nod his head, expressing his satisfaction, I went in to boil water to make tea, lit incense candles, worshiped the ancestors, offered tea, all kinds of rules were done enough.

From then on, I can no longer call him Old Man Liu, but have to call him Master or Old Liu.

After paying homage to my teacher, Liu Laodao didn't teach me any tricks right away, he just told me to go back to sleep, and I was fine all night, but when I came together the next day, someone knocked on the door, and when I opened it, it was Boss Chen's family.
