strayed into fairy mountain

Chapter 60 [The battle back then, I really had me]

After a long time, Zhang Jingxu spoke slowly, almost slurring every word, as if it was extremely difficult, and said: "Uncle Liu, who is Zhang Jingxu you are talking about?"

In fact, he already had a guess in his mind, and nine out of ten this matter was himself, or to be more exact, he was the predecessor of the time traveler.

So he seems to ask questions, nothing more than proof.

……

"You actually asked who Zhang Jingxu was?"

"Ho ho ho ho!"

The old man let out a strange laugh and said: "It seems that you really don't remember!"

"or……"

"or……"

Suddenly the old man's face became serious, his obviously old and muddy eyes seemed to be sharp. "Or maybe you are not the Zhang Jingxu you were back then..."

He stared at Zhang Jingxu, and even stopped drinking and asked, "Zhang Wazi, could it be that you are also contaminated with ghost spirits. Otherwise, why don't you remember all the scenes back then?"

Zhang Jingxu was startled, and said in astonishment: "Am I contaminated with ghost energy?"

The old man looked vigilant, and said sharply: "People who are haunted by weirdness will have various abnormalities. For example, this old man and me, such as other old soldiers, each of us has different weirdness..."

As he spoke, he stared at Zhang Jingxu, and then shouted again, and said, "And your current situation also seems weird."

"I'm also weird?" Zhang Jingxu frowned.

The old man's eyes were fierce, and he had a faint aura of awe, and he said loudly: "Yes, you are also weird. When you were in the army, you and the old man were in the same army. There were five people in the army, and our army was four. A middle-aged man adds you to a youth. Everyone considers themselves an elder, and everyone takes good care of you."

"You Qi not only took good care of you, but also taught you my coffin secret technique. But after you saw me today, you kept asking about the coffin. At that time, the old man realized that you have forgotten the past. "

"Not only did you forget the past, you forgot the four uncles who took care of you. You even forgot the coffin secret technique I taught you, and once you learn this secret technique, you should never forget it."

Zhang Jingxu was stunned.

Coffin secret technique?

He even learned the old man's coffin secret technique.

He subconsciously looked at the old man, but saw that the old man was also looking at him, and his eyes were extremely vigilant, clearly suspecting that he was also haunted by strange things.

This made Zhang Jingxu quite helpless.

After being silent for a long time, he finally thought of an explanation. He raised his hand and pointed at the coffin, pointing at the two treasures suppressed on it, and said sincerely: "If I am haunted by weirdness, can I have such treasures?"

The old man was slightly taken aback.

Zhang Jingxu said again solemnly: "Even an ordinary person can feel the righteousness of the two treasures, right?"

The vigilance on the old man's face gradually faded, and he obviously realized that it was true.

He remained silent, not enough, and after a long while, he murmured, "Yeah, you shouldn't be haunted by weirdness. Otherwise, we risked our lives to save you back then, and all the sacrifices were in vain..."

Zhang Jingxu's heart moved, her eyes flashed and she hurriedly asked: "What happened back then? How did you risk your life to save me?"

But seeing that the old man didn’t know why, a smile appeared on the old man’s face. Suddenly he glanced at Zhang Jingxu, and said softly: “Since you have forgotten what happened back then, and also the coffin secret technique I taught you. Then, the old man will come again today.” I will teach you again."

Zhang Jingxu was taken aback for a moment, then said in astonishment: "Teach me again?"

But the old man walked tremblingly to the corner, picked up a small wooden barrel and brought it back, went straight to the coffin, and said in a dull voice, "The coffin is a bed of darkness. It's not evil, it's called Shoucai."

"People are alive and live in a Yangzhai."

"When a person dies, he sleeps in a coffin."

"For death, the ancestors have seen it clearly for generations, so they don't resist death, but will prepare the birthday materials in advance."

"The poor and small households have thin skins, and the rich and powerful are the coffins. However, no matter whether they are poor or rich, it is customary to prepare the coffin in advance."

Zhang Jingxu couldn't help but nodded, and then said: "Even the poorest people are very concerned about this matter, even if they can't afford a coffin, they will try their best to get a reed mat, and when the elder dies, use it The reed mat is wrapped in the burial... For the poor people, the reed mat is the coffin of the elderly."

However, Uncle Liu ignored him and continued to walk around the coffin with the small wooden bucket. Suddenly, he took out a brush from the small wooden bucket and gently brushed a liquid as clear as water on the coffin.

Zhang Jingxu was immediately vigilant, her eyes fixed on Xiaotong.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Liu chuckled and said, "Don't worry, this is tung oil."

He paused for a while, then continued brushing the coffin tremblingly, and said, "Most of the coffins of wealthy families are custom-made in advance. The richer they are, the more particular they are. Some wealthy families even prepare birthday materials when they are middle-aged..."

"There is a rule for preparing birthday materials. No matter which shop you order, you must leave the coffin in the store. It is not suitable to retrieve the birthday materials when you are not dying."

Zhang Jingxu was thoughtful, turned to look at the coffins in the yard, and said, "So, those are all placed by others?"

However, the old man still ignored him, and continued to explain: "Because the birthday materials are all custom-made in advance, and some are custom-made many years in advance, coupled with the particularity of the big family, so the coffin shop is required to maintain it..."

"One family is like this, two families are like this, and the ancestors have been like this for generations, and the rules have gradually formed."

"I don't know when it started. After the coffin is made, it must be maintained, such as painting every year, such as offering sacrifices to three animals during festivals. Any business has been passed down for a long time, and there will be more rules formed."

When the old man said this, his expression was faintly strange, and he suddenly said meaningfully: "These rules are mostly bad habits, but there are some other rules that seem to coincide with some kind of mystery."

Zhang Jingxu's heart skipped a beat, feeling that the old man might start talking about death-killing techniques.

Sure enough, the old man smiled, caressed the coffin with trembling palms, and said: "Some craftsmen who have made coffins for generations have gradually explored some strange techniques. They dare not say anything, or they are greedy, so they continue to explore. , passed on to his descendants."

"Later generations continue to ponder and make continuous improvements, and finally not only that generation, but also discovered the technique that coffins can save lives."

Zhang Jingxu couldn't help but speak, and said coldly: "I'm a craftsman, thinking about magic."

Unexpectedly, Old Uncle Liu laughed, looked at him and said, "How could it be a sorcery? If it was a sorcery, you were willing to learn it at the beginning? Your temper when you were young is not the usual jealousy. If the old man taught you evil You are afraid that you will kill me with a single knife."

Zhang Jingxu was startled, and then said with a little sarcasm, "From what you mean, this technique is actually an orthodox technique?"

Obviously he was mocking, but the old man nodded solemnly, and said very solemnly: "That's right, it's an orthodox technique. Although this technique seems to be evil and evil, as long as it is used well, it will even gain merit..."

Zhang Jingxu was dumbfounded!
Borrowing someone else's life has merit?
