Folk custom: At the beginning of the wedding, the bride takes off her painted skin

Under normal circumstances, if a fierce ghost pinched his Adam's apple, he would still be in an ancient tomb like this.

Basically you can say that half your life is gone.

But those are ordinary people.

The man in front of me was laughing and talking.

The runes he had drawn on his chest with cinnabar in advance felt the foul air invading them, and they were immediately aroused, emitting a bloody light.

If an ordinary person were exposed to this bloody light, it would be like that.

But if it was filth...then the blood would only feel extremely hot, and in fact it was indeed like this.

The moment the blood light just turned on, the cold feeling on Tan Xiao's neck disappeared.

Then he also saw a rotten woman's face in front of him.

What this female ghost was wearing was exactly what he had seen in the previous tomb, the lavender chest-length skirt that had been moved.

The female ghost seemed to be in a bit of pain from being burned, her expression was ferocious, and her body quickly retreated.

"court death!"

"How dare you bully me to talk about Taoism!"

Shi Ji gave a sharp shout and kicked Pu Dao on the back of the knife. Pu Dao, which was originally stuck on the ground, immediately flew up. He held it with one hand, stepped forward with his left foot, and stabbed out with the knife in his right hand.

The sharp blade stabbed directly into the neck of this fierce ghost, with unparalleled killing power.

But just when Shi Ji thought that his sword could kill this evil ghost, Tan Xiao had already lit the extinguished candle again.

The moment the light shone on the dark room, Li Gui's figure disappeared.

There was no warning, no sign.

Shi Ji took the opportunity to take back the Pu Dao. If it weren't for the rotten smell on the blade, he would have thought that he had made a mistake.

He looked to the side talking and laughing.

"Taoist Priest, could it be this light?" Shi Ji looked at the candle in Tanxiao's hand and said, "It appeared just now without the candle. When you light the candle, it disappears."

"That's not the reason."

There is not much explanation for talking and laughing. There must be other rules among them.

"What is the Taoist priest thinking about?"

"The poor Taoist is thinking... We should not finish all the customs on the Spring Festival, but should leave one behind, so that we can attract the weirdness and find out their rules, instead of trying it again after going to the tomb like this." ”

After chatting and laughing, and making sure that the ghost was not with him, he walked through the stone door and returned to the previous funerary room.

When he got here, he noticed at a glance that the skirt he had just moved was missing.

It was indeed a ghost, or in other words, the ghost actually wore that piece of clothing.

Tanxiao lowered his head and looked at his chest. He had driven away a ghost once before, so the runes on his chest were much dimmed.

He took out the soft pen stained with cinnabar and traced the runes again.

After knowing that he only had one life, Shi Ji became more cautious and turned around, "Taoist Priest, let me describe this again."

Tanxiao glanced at it and said, "You're fine, no need."

Hearing this, Shi Ji breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked: "Taoist Priest, will your runes be useful to anyone who draws them?"

"It just needs to be drawn with cinnabar, right?" Shi Ji looked at Tanxiao's chest, as if he wanted to record these runes.

Talking and laughing, he flicked his sleeves and said bluntly: "The poor Taoist has practiced hard for hundreds of thousands of years in Zhongjiu liu, so that his spirituality can be full, and he can have a trace of great power even in dreams."

"But if someone takes a pen and draws these runes, wouldn't the hundreds of thousands of years of hard work that I have done be in vain?"

Shi Ji was stunned for a moment, "Then I won't remember it."

"It's too difficult. I'd better chop it with a knife."

After saying that, he added: "What about us now? Should we go directly or?"

"Not urgent."

Tanxiao looked at these clothes, then put the candle in his hand on the stone table aside, took off the pouch at his waist, and took out an ink fountain from it.

"You've seen this thing before, do you know how to use it?"

Shi Ji nodded, "I know, I have some at home and have used them before."

"Then you hold the thread, go over there, and circle all the clothes in the middle."

Shi Ji took the thread and walked to the other end, but he still couldn't help but asked: "Taoist Master, can this ink thread also ward off evil spirits?"

"Ah."

Tanxiao watched the silk thread in the coil being taken away and passed through the grinding bottle, and explained: "The ink fountain is a tool used by carpenters to draw long straight lines and measure verticals. Over time, some old ink fountains have become more mature. the power of."

"Furthermore, from the perspective of our Taoist sect, this ink fountain is a pure yang thing, and evil cannot defeat good, and yang must overcome yin. Therefore, the ink pole line drawn with an ink pole can restrain yin and evil things."

After reaching the end, Shi Ji pressed the iron nail on the thread to the ground, then walked to the middle, pulled up the thread and flicked it lightly, and a straight ink fountain line was drawn.

Tanxiao took the rocker and started to reel in the line.

Then the two of them followed the same pattern and drew three more lines.

In this way, all these clothes are trapped in the middle.

This time Shiji didn't ask why he didn't burn all the clothes and put them into the tomb. He still had to respect the owner of the tomb.

This is also the rule in this industry.

After doing this, the two of them continued on the road, passing through the ear room with the sarcophagus and stone figures, and then they came to a corridor that went straight forward.

There was a smaller side room next to the corridor. When Shi Ji walked in, he found that there were three wooden boxes that had begun to rot.

He opened the two wooden boxes near the door in succession, only to find that they were filled with paper money, which was almost rotten and eaten by insects.

Shi Ji was so angry that he kicked one to pieces.

"This old bastard is worried that he will have no money to spend after he dies! He has become a big landlord in the world, and he still wants to be a landlord after death, right?"

When Tanxiao saw this, he already laughed.

Sure enough, when Shi Ji opened the last wooden box, his tone immediately changed.

"Holy shit, Taoist Priest, we're rich!"

Inside the opened wooden box, there were a lot of sundries piled up, such as black silver ingots, delicate but rusty copper bottles, and various jade articles.

Of course, what caught Shi Ji's attention the most were the few gold ingots mixed in and glowing under the candlelight.

"Do you like this business?"

Tan Xiaoxiao asked.

Shi Ji put his hand on the edge of the box and fished out the jade ingots inside. His eyes were shining, "I like it, I like it so much."

"Okay, let's leave it for now and take it away when we leave. Let's go see the real owner first...the valuables are not here."

"Okay, okay." Now, no matter what they said in conversation or laughter, Shi Ji listened.

The pleasure and joy of this kind of harvest simply fascinated him.

Resisting to look away from the treasure in this box, Shi Ji picked up the simple knife next to him, and then he kept up with the pace of talking and laughing.

"That thing will definitely appear next, so remember to be careful."

As soon as these words came out, Shi Ji immediately cheered up and said, "Okay."

Walking through this corridor, my eyes suddenly brightened. It was almost exactly the same as the main tomb chamber I saw on the previous floor.

But the space is twice as big.

Apart from this, there is only a huge sarcophagus in the center of the tomb.

It looks the same as the previous one, but is twice as big.

At this point, talking and laughing became a little easier.

He walked to the southeast corner of the tomb, placed the candlestick on the ground, and then took out two intact candles from the bag.

First, he lit one with the help of a candle, then placed it right on top of the flame of the candlestick. After melting the wax, he pressed it up until it was stable, and then he let go.

Xu knew that Shi Ji would definitely ask another question, so Tanxiao took the initiative to explain this time:

"People light candles, ghosts blow out lamps."

"In the Bagua, the southeast corner is the Xunmen Gate, which is the doorway for humans and souls to enter. Light a candle here. If it goes out, it means... the ghost has arrived."

While chatting and laughing, he lit the candle in his hand again for closer viewing.

"Taoist Priest, why do I feel that what you said makes my back shiver."

"Okay, this is not your style. Come here quickly and open the coffin."

Shi Ji chuckled and followed quickly, "Isn't it necessary to burn incense and paper when opening the coffin?"

"There's no need for this. It's all for someone else's coffin. It would be too provocative to burn a piece of paper for someone else."

After talking and joking, he also tapped the lid of the sarcophagus with Liu Tianzi.

The dull sound echoed in the empty stone room.

"Taoist Master, are you afraid that this person is not dead or not at home, so you still have to knock on the door first?"

Shi Jidu learned to joke with Tan Daochang.

"I'm afraid the coffin lid is a bit thick and heavy."

Talking and laughing without any dialogue.

Shi Ji rolled up his sleeves and put the knife aside, "Taoist Master, I think it will be the same as before. I just opened the coffin lid and the ghost will come out. What do you think?"

Shi Ji said and put his hand on the coffin lid.

But the moment he put his hand on the coffin lid...the candle in the southeast corner was extinguished, leaving only the candle in Tanxiao's hand still emitting a faint light.

But before the two of them could speak, the next moment, the candle in Tanxiao's hand was extinguished again.

Darkness enveloped the entire tomb.

But with his previous experience in the ear room, Shi Ji was not too panicked. The talisman Tan Dao Chang painted could protect him.

But in the next moment, he knew that was not the case.

Because there was a slight sound breaking through the air.

"Be careful, ghosts are very intelligent."

Tan Daozhang exclaimed, and then Shi Ji heard the sound of his ground rolling.

Shi Ji concentrated his mind, already knowing in his heart that this trip was definitely not that simple. He moved his ears slightly, held the simple knife in one hand, and slashed away with the knife.

There was a "ding" sound. He didn't know what he hit, but there was a slight shock in his hands.

Then I heard the "clang" sound of landing.

Is this something thrown by a ghost?
Shi Ji concentrated on it, turned his hearing to the highest level, and could only listen to the sound of footsteps.

After that, he heard the sound of flint rubbing and colliding.

The candles were lit, and the light shone in the tomb again.

But when Shi Ji looked around, he discovered that the person holding the candle was actually the female ghost with a rotten face. On the contrary, Tan Daochang was missing!

He suddenly felt extremely anxious, holding the Pu Dao in both hands, and was about to chop it off.

"The laws of heaven and earth are imminent. Listen to my order and destroy it!"

In Shi Ji's eyes, the female ghost held her right hand horizontally in front of her body, raised her left hand to her chest, pinched a spell, and uttered an order.

He quickly stopped Pu Dao.

Seeing that the blade was about to cut off the female ghost's head, Kankan stopped, and in just a blink of an eye, the female ghost turned into a talker.

"This……"

"How is this going?"

He was startled and broke into a cold sweat.

This Taoist priest was almost not killed by a ghost, but was almost hacked to death by himself?
But looking at Tanxiao, his expression was natural, without any fear or fear, but instead he felt relaxed?

"It doesn't matter, Pindao probably knows what this ghost is about."

Talk and laugh easily.

Shi Ji looked around the entire tomb, but saw no trace of the ghost.

"It's okay, Taoist priest, tell me, I will do whatever you say!" Shi Ji held the Pu Dao tightly, very sensible.

"Well... you go and light the candle in the corner first. I still have some things to confirm."

"it is good."

Shi Ji carried the knife and walked over, but when he saw that he had just walked to the candle, he lowered his head and was about to light it.

The tomb became dark again.

He also felt as if someone was blowing air on the back of his neck, which was ice-cold.

But as a result, the runes on his back were also aroused, and when the blood lit up, he suddenly turned his head and stabbed it.

But even though he reacted so quickly, he still missed the target.

The existence and disappearance of ghosts are just a matter of thought.

Tan Daozhang lit the extinguished candle again without saying anything, and Shi Ji had no choice but to light the candle in the corner.

The ghost did not appear, and the candle did not go out.

Tanxiao came to him holding a candle in his hand. The two candles came together, and the area suddenly became extremely bright.

Shi Ji looked at him doubtfully.

Tanxiao only said three words, gritted his teeth and said firmly: "There is no ghost."

"No ghosts?"

Talk and laugh and nod.

He said it, and Shi Ji believed it.

This is where Shi Ji comes in handy. Although he is reckless and doesn't care about anything, one thing is that he is obedient.

Especially listen to smart people.

Not to mention this smart guy, he's still the kind of smart guy that he can't beat.

At this time, he will become very convinced, that is, he will be convinced by the talk and talk.

So since Tao Tan said that there are no ghosts, it means there are no ghosts. He also believes in this concept and this sentence.

There are no ghosts in this tomb.

Although I have clearly seen it, if the Taoist priest said no, then it means no!

But then, Tanxiao said something for no reason, and said something that made him very confused.

"I'll take action later, remember to hurry up."

"Ok?"

Before Shi Ji had time to wonder, he discovered that there was a female ghost lying on the huge sarcophagus, on the coffin lid, a female ghost wearing a dusty lavender skirt that was about to rot.

She was lying there, as if she was in some pain, as if she was crying.

"Cry your mother!"

Shi Ji suddenly threw out the simple knife in his hand.

The female ghost lying on the sarcophagus did not seem to realize that she had been exposed. She turned back in a hurry. When she saw this moment, her figure gradually dimmed, as if she was about to disappear.

But in the end it was still a step too late.

The simple knife thrown by Shi Ji with all his strength had pierced her head in less than a blink of an eye, and the tip of the knife was nailed to the coffin lid.

He also kept her by the way, and this time, she did not disappear.

Her lower body went limp, and only her head was nailed to the sarcophagus. She murmured, "Don't even think about hurting my husband."

"Don't even think about hurting...my husband."

Shi Ji strode towards her, "He's still an idiot!"

Talking and laughing, he nodded inwardly, thinking to himself that Shi Ji actually knew how to be stupid, which was really good.

But I never thought that Shi Ji's next sentence would be, "Then it will be even more damning!"

After he finished speaking, he walked closer, pulled out the simple knife, and then slashed along it again.

This knife directly chopped off the ghost's head. It stared at the boss with its eyes fixed on the stone table.

This time it pissed him off even more.

Shi Ji stepped forward and stomped her foot hard, as if he wanted to crush her head directly.

But he never thought that before his feet landed on the ground, the female ghost's body had already dissipated and turned into a copper coin on the ground.

"what."

He lowered his head to pick it up and looked at it front and back.

"Shouyuan...Tongbao?!"

Tanxiao came over and he immediately handed it over, "Taoist Master, look at what's going on."

Tan Xiao took it and just glanced at it before taking out his Tower Ascension Order.

[Season: 9]

[Shouyuan Tongbao: 1]

"look."

Shi Ji came over to take a look, and also took out his own Tower Ascension Order.

[Season: 9]

Of course, he only completed 9 of these under the guidance of Tan Xiao, otherwise with his character and brains.

At most 1 completed.

That is to get the winning money, because this is given to him by his family, and other things like Spring Festival couplets, door gods and so on.

Shi Ji would only say, 'Who do you think you are?' Are you worthy of telling me to work? '

Then when his family wanted to take action, he would say, "Fight me. If you kill me, you won't have a son." '

As for scolding, Shi Ji couldn't hear it.

"This should be similar to the Jigui Crystal on the second level, and it can also be used to exchange for things in the end."

After chatting and joking, he didn't show any politeness and directly put away the copper coin, "I'll give you the next one."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

From Shi Ji's point of view, even if he didn't talk and laugh, he wouldn't have any opinion.

He respects the strong, and at the same time, he also knows that Tanxiao has taken good care of him.

"It should be fine now. Let's open the coffin and take a look."

The ghosts in the tomb have been removed, so it should be considered safe.

"okay."

Shi Ji put down his sword, put his hands on the coffin lid, and started to exert force.

This was so cruel that even though Shi Ji's face turned red from holding it in, he only pushed the coffin lid through a gap.

Upon seeing this, Tanxiao said casually, "It would be great if my brother Daoxuan was here."

"what?"

As soon as Shi Ji heard the name, he asked, "Li Daoxuan?"

His face suddenly darkened, and he shouted loudly. He almost used all his strength to push the coffin lid open.

Tanxiao held the candle in his hand, poked his head in and took a look, then backed out, frowning slightly.

"Something's not right."

Shi Ji, whose hands were weak from exhaustion, also poked his head in and took a look. With just one glance, he felt that all his hard work today was worth it.

Because inside the coffin, there was a pair of nearly rotting corpses, and the upper body of the corpse was actually wearing... a gold-threaded garment.

To be precise, it is a jade garment with golden threads.

Gold threads are used to make strands, and jade pieces are used to make clothes.

If this thing were sold, it would be said to be priceless.

So, why is this thing on a mountain landowner? !

Shi Ji, who discovered this, also turned to look at Tan Xiao.

"This is usually worn by princes and nobles after they die. I am afraid that the owner of this tomb is weird. If you look for it, there should be other clues in this tomb." (End of Chapter)
