Chapter 822: Earthly Buddha Fo Kui
Plant relics are also called jade fossils and tree jade.

The principle of its formation is that due to geological movements and other reasons, the plants in the original forest were buried underground. Over the long years, after high pressure, low temperature, no oxygen, and being immersed in an environment rich in silica, the carbon elements in the trees gradually It is replaced by silica and retains the original characteristics of the tree, becoming petrified wood.

Petrified wood absorbs mineral elements in the rock formations, re-crystallizes them, and converts them into opal chalcedony, forming the dazzling wood and jade color.

We often see some trees and jade placed in the halls of some ancient houses.

The ancients believed that this thing could drive away evil spirits and bring good luck to the house, so it was often used as a town object.

The probability of forming a paleontological fossil is only one in a million, and the probability of completely forming a tree-turned-jade is even lower.Because the formation of this material requires extremely harsh geological environmental conditions, natural and authentic tree jade is actually extremely expensive.

Nowadays, the tree jade we can see placed in other people's homes, offices or shops is [-]% synthetic fakes.

Because really people don’t dare to show off.

If you accidentally fall...

As long as the owner doesn't have a myocardial infarction, he is considered a fool.

Plant relics are nothing.

The key point is that this plant relic is jade-colored on the outside and crystal clear. Its shape is like the Dharma finger of the Buddhist relic, and it is inside the Dharma finger.But it is an extremely complete small tree root. The small tree root is brownish-yellow and shaped like a human.

This is not the person who carved it!
But the little tree has grown into a human form.

The head, facial features, and limbs are lifelike, and the body is powerful and powerful.

There are even sparse hairs sticking up on the top.

I was really blown away by it.

Couldn't speak for a long time.

Uncle Qi saw me dumbfounded and didn't bother me. He asked Xiaozhu, "Miss Xiaozhu, who do you think this person looks like?"

Xiaozhu thought for a moment and said, "Like a ghost!"

Uncle Qi chuckled, then turned to me and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Su?"

I swallowed my saliva and said, "Iron-faced man with curly temples, strange appearance, bared teeth and claws, he looks like Zhong Kui who catches ghosts."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Qi gave me a thumbs up: "Wonderful! Master Xia once named it 'Di Zun Fo Kui'."

Can you imagine?
A small tree root from the geological period hundreds of millions of years ago. It looks like Zhong Kui. It is buried underground like the underworld. After being forged with uncanny craftsmanship, it is also covered with a layer of transparent jade in the shape of a Buddhist thumb relic!

Kui means Tao.

Dharma refers to Buddha.

Xia Xi named it "Di Zun Fo Kui".

It just doesn't fit too well!
I want to be more superstitious and have a rich imagination.

Even think about it.

Could it be that Zhong Kui, the ghost-catching commander in the underworld, used magic to shrink his body and get into the Buddhist relics in an attempt to practice some supreme method, but something went wrong in the middle and he could no longer do it? Never came out.

Through endless years.

I don’t know which person who was given the opportunity to practice Buddhism dug it out!
Not only does this object have similar Buddhist relic fingers, but Zhong Kui was also named the "Holy Lord Who Blessed and Suppressed the House". If it was used as a relic, in the feudal society, it would be enough to control the palace compound and protect the country's great fortune!

Divine weapon of heaven and earth!

Xia Xi was arrested because of the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.

But the Xia family's artifact is an earthly Buddha Kui.

In the dark.

Is it possible that there is providence?

I recited Amitabha Buddha once in my mind, and recited the Deity of Infinite Blessings again.

Quickly ask Uncle Qi to dismantle the mechanism in the iron box.

Put this artifact in.

closed.

Qi Bo said: "Mr. Su, Xiang Liu has many years of business foundation in Modu. Although they were driven to pieces by your plan just now with the help of Gongmen, they have already discovered my shop." "Based on the fact that they are here. The intricate forces in the world of Magic City will quickly find my home, and even find this scrap collection station that I don’t often come to. We must leave as soon as possible!"

I replied: "Let's go!"

Nothing to say at this moment is superfluous!
The three went out.

Qi Bo locked the scrap collection station again.

After getting in the car.

Qi Bo added: "Master Xia once told me that after Mr. Su took the artifact, he asked me to take you out of the magic city safely! You drive according to the road I pointed out!"

This artifact is so important.

Although I don't believe that Xiang Liu's people have that much energy to track us in a very short period of time.

But take precautions before they happen, and leaving by the fastest and safest route is the only choice.

Zieber obviously knows the best way to evacuate better than we do.

under his command.

We drove the car directly to the edge of Huangpu River.

On the river is a small boat that collects debris from the river.

Qi Bo made a call using the IC card of the public phone booth next to him and said a few words.

10 minutes later.

Two old men came out of the boat and went ashore.

A man drove the rental car away for us.

A man picked us up and boarded the boat.

Qi Bo said: "They have been old friends for decades and are trustworthy."

The bow of the boat plowed the waves on the Huangpu River and kept moving forward. First it reached Chongxian County, then changed boats to Qidong, and then took a bus to Nantong.

Arrive in Nantong.

A few people first found a hotel to rest for a while.

Qi Bo wanted us to take a flight directly from Nantong to our destination.

I asked Xiaozhu to go to the ticket ordering point in the hotel lobby to order tickets.

After half an hour.

Xiaozhu came back and said that the earliest flight would not be until around nine o'clock in the evening.

There are still a few hours left.

However, we had all left the magical city, and our mentality was a little relaxed. We ate some instant noodles in the room, and after being stuck in time, we went downstairs to the airport.

After leaving the hotel.

Uncle Qi cupped his fists and saluted us, just like the elders at home giving instructions to the younger ones who are traveling far away. His expression was full of kindness and concern: "Mr. Su, Miss Xiaozhu, have a safe trip!"

I also cupped my fists and returned the greeting: "Uncle Qi, too!"

Qi Bo turned around and wanted to leave.

I took action quickly and slashed his neck with a knife.

Qibo fell down immediately.

Xiaozhu was nearby and quickly stopped him.

I asked: "Where is the car you rented just now?"

Xiaozhu pointed to the side: "On the left!"

I replied: "Take him in the car!"
