Taboo Master

Chapter 204

Hearing this, I already understood that Yi Sheng and those three people are all masters who hate winning. This big hunt is really a game of death.

The old man told all this slowly, and said to me with a smile: "Now, do you still want to keep that coin?"

I was trembling all over, but I gave a wry smile, and I didn't know how to answer it.

That's right, those who have money for winning will be regarded as masters of winning, and will be listed as hunting targets. No wonder the old man reminded me again and again, but now, handing over the money for winning is not enough. Doesn't mean...

A thought suddenly popped up in my mind, I looked up at the old man, hesitant to speak, but he smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm not a teacher who hates winning, and I won't lie to you about winning money."

He actually guessed my thoughts, I couldn't help being a little embarrassed, Nangong Feiyan also said to me: "That's right, the old man is a wise man who has only been passed down for 500 years, and he is not some unlucky master who is tired of winning. Don't think too much about it."

"Heaven wise man?" I was confused again, why so many strange people popped up all of a sudden, what does the sky wise man do today?

The old man smiled without saying a word, Nangong Feiyan said: "You don't need to ask any more questions now, the old man was very kind to my fox family more than 20 years ago, I can guarantee that he is definitely not a master who hates victory."

"Then, what exactly is your antique shop..." I asked in another way, thinking that since you don't explain to me what a wise man is, then I will go around from the side and always find out some details about you.

The old man didn't answer, and suddenly took a porcelain bottle from the table, fixed his gaze on it, and remained silent in thought.

This is a long-necked porcelain vase. There is a beautiful peacock on each side of the bottle, with a crested head and a thin neck. From back to tail, the colorful feathers are like flower scales, very beautiful.

The old man stared at it for a long time, and said slowly: "Do you know the stories behind these antiques?"

I shook my head, but I thought in my heart, these antiques naturally have stories, not to mention them, even the shoes I wear now, after hundreds of years, they will be antiques, and people will take the shoes and say, It is a shoe once worn by a great taboo teacher. It has accompanied the taboo teacher for several years, walked through the ends of the world, and witnessed the growth of a taboo teacher. It is a pair of shoes with a story ...

The old man interrupted my wild thoughts and said: "These antiques each have their own stories, which have been carried for many years, but no one has ever listened to them, because they can't speak. They have been soaked in hundreds of years of time. For thousands of years, each piece has condensed the painstaking efforts of the craftsman and the courage of the user. Each piece belongs to a different owner and has its own story. Even, every crack and every gap is It has a unique history. Some people say that antiques are utensils, dead things without life, but in my eyes, the experience of every antique can be written into a book."

I listened quietly, and I had to say that what the old man said was indeed philosophical, but I didn't understand what he was trying to express.The old man continued: "If you listen to and feel with your heart, you will understand the splendor behind each of these antiques, and you will be immersed physically and mentally from now on, and you will be unable to extricate yourself, because you will fall in love with them."

"For example, this peacock vase is Tang Gaozu Li Yuan. Because the empress loved peacocks, she not only raised peacocks in the palace, but also specially hired skilled craftsmen to make a pair of peacock vases and put them in the palace. The empress loved them very much. Playing with it, but this peacock bottle is elegant and pleasing to the eye, it will last forever, it is loved by the empress, and it has spirituality, which can drive away evil spirits..."

Legend has it that after the peacock vase had been in the palace for several years, one day Li Yuan was talking to the empress in the harem when he suddenly saw a cloud of black air out of nowhere, and a woman with red hair and blue face, green eyes and long tongue appeared in the black air, rushing towards the door. Enter, reach out and grab the queen.The queen fainted on the spot, Li Yuan drew his sword and slashed at it, but was blocked by the demon girl with her hand, the sword flew out of her hand, Li Yuan retreated in shock, just happened to knock down the peacock bottle.

The demon girl pounced on again, and the peacock bottle suddenly emitted a red light. When the demon woman saw the red light, she gave a strange cry, turned around and ran away.In an instant, the red light from the peacock bottle turned into five-colored light again. Looking at the witch, she just brushed it, and the witch shrank into a ball, writhing and howling. With another swipe, the pheasant essence turned into a pile of white bones.

When the queen woke up, she realized that the peacock bottle had the magic power to drive away evil spirits, so she was very grateful to the peacock bottle, and regarded it as a treasure for the town.Later, Li Yuan named the pair of peacock bottles as treasure bottles for protecting the country, and ordered to search for the craftsman who made the peacock bottles, but he could not find them anymore.

Since then, the peacock bottle has been regarded as a treasure of auspiciousness, but after years of changes, the peacock bottle has been scattered among the people. When the original pair of bottles arrived in the hands of the old man, there was only one left.

After hearing the story of the peacock bottle, I couldn't help feeling emotional, so I asked: "Since this peacock bottle is so magical, does it still have the effect of exorcising evil spirits?"

The old man sighed: "Fairy birds have fallen into the mundane world, peacocks are deeply in love, a pair of peacocks, now there is only one left, and there is nothing magical about it. If you want to restore the peacock bottle to its original shape, you have to find another one and make it into a bottle." couple."

I was also very sorry, but I was not confused by his story. After thinking about it, I asked again: "Your story is nice, but what does it have to do with me handing over my money?"

The old man smiled, took out a copper coin from his pocket, put it on the table, and said, "Look, what is this?"

I looked down, and was suddenly surprised, isn't this, isn't this just dislike of winning money?Why does he have this too?

The old man said: "About ten years ago, a master of the master of the master came to me before he died, and told me the story of the big hunt between the masters of the master, and gave me the money for the master of the master, he said , Yansheng money is also an ancient relic. Every Yansheng coin once had a different owner. It is a status symbol of Master Yansheng and a magic weapon passed down by Master Yansheng. In order to completely stop this big hunt, he begged me , if possible, collect as much money as possible. In this way, the masters of Yansheng will lose their goals and inheritance, and will only kill less and less. In the end, they will die cleanly. Qing Ping, no longer tire of the art of victory."

I couldn't help but suddenly realized that the old man was telling the truth at this time, and that Master Yansheng had a good intention, but his heart was vicious, and he didn't hesitate to let Master Yansheng die. In fact, I can see that Master Yansheng's behavior style is indeed both good and evil, and it is uncomfortable not to harm others.

The old man thought for a while, then took out another wooden box, opened it face to face, there was something wrapped in a black cloth inside, and when he opened it again, it was a stick-shaped object, about two inches long, the thickness of a finger, and it seemed to be dried blood, but it was Already showing dark brown.

Before I could ask a question, the old man said: "This is Master Yansheng's town object. If Yansheng money is the inheritance and symbol of Master Yansheng, then the town object is the magic weapon that Master Yansheng devoted all his life to cultivate. The treasures of each Master of Suppression are unique, and losing the treasure means completely becoming the prey in the big hunt."

I became more and more surprised, and asked, "Then what is this town thing?"

The old man said lightly: "This is a finger."

"Ah, finger..." I couldn't help shivering, just now I thought that this thing was shaped like a finger, but I didn't expect it to be a finger, but how could this treasure of Master Yan Sheng be my own? finger?
The old man seemed to see my doubts, and said: "Master Yansheng's treasure can be any object in the world. Naturally, it can be his own body. Fingers are still normal. Some people even put their noses, eyes and ears as Cultivated to become a town, this kind of body is usually very powerful, but the disadvantage is that once it is robbed, it means physical disability."

Hearing this, I suddenly remembered that Orange Moon. The red light emitted from her eyes was very powerful, like a laser beam. Could it be that she cultivated one of her eyes into a town?

The old man said again: "So, if you put the money and the treasure here with me, it is the safest. You don't have to worry about being chased, killed and robbed, and you don't have to worry about these two things leaking out. What are you hesitating about?"

It turned out that he made such a big detour just to persuade me to hand over my money and property to him.

But I still don't understand, is it absolutely safe to give these two things to him?

"Old man, aren't you afraid of being chased and killed?" I asked out my doubts.

The old man smiled and said: "Everything in the world cannot escape reincarnation. Since the establishment of my Reincarnation Pavilion, no one has ever dared to break into my place and act wildly."

I couldn't help being awe-inspiring, it turned out that his place is called the Samsara Pavilion.How to look down on the world!
The old man was still sitting there calmly, but at this moment, he seemed to exude an undisguised aura of a king.

"Old man, I am willing to believe in you, and I also live for the common people in the world, thank you, if Master Yan Sheng can really disappear from the world, it will be a merit of the old man."

After finishing speaking, I took out the money I was tired of, put it on the table without hesitation, bowed and said: "Please accept it, old man."

There was a wise light in the old man's eyes, he laughed and said, "Why, are you still unwilling to hand over the treasure?"

I said frankly: "Wan Sheng Qian is a symbol of the big hunt, and it is the target of the master, but this town does not seem to have anything to do with the big hunt. The younger generation wants to keep this thing and investigate a cat slave who is harmful to people." The whereabouts, and the whereabouts of the master behind her, I don’t think I will bother the old man, as long as the old man can give some pointers and tell the whereabouts of the cat slave, I will be grateful.”

The old man relaxed his face, nodded and said: "That's right, you have a heart, since you are willing to take this matter as your own responsibility, then it doesn't matter if I give you advice."

He paused, and then continued: "Last night, that cat slave came to my reincarnation pavilion and wanted to steal this treasure, but she fell into reincarnation and couldn't extricate herself. Later, her nature returned and told me that she was controlled by others." , unable to get away, begging me to go to an ancient tomb cave hundreds of miles away within three days and rescue her. I wanted to ask carefully, but before she finished speaking, she suddenly went crazy and her cat nature reappeared , unexpectedly broke my confinement, and took the opportunity to snatch a treasure from my place, and escaped."

This is a big clue!I was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "Then where did she escape, but that ancient tomb cave?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, and said: "I have investigated her whereabouts before, but in the divination, there is a faint mystery. It seems that some strange power is preventing my investigation."

"Then, what should we do then?"

"Don't worry, although I can't find her whereabouts for a while, I think there must be traces of her in that ancient tomb cave. At least, I should be able to find some important clues."

I already understood what he meant, so I stood up and said, "Okay, old man, don't worry, I'm going to go to that ancient tomb cave. Zhenwu, three, try to save the cat slave and return to his original nature."

The old man showed a happy face, and smiled slightly: "Okay, very good, I planned to go there by myself, but there are many things that I can't get rid of. Since you have this heart, I would like to thank you. However, I I don’t know yet, what is your name and apprenticeship?"

I smiled and said, "The junior, Han Qingtian, doesn't have any mastery, he just learned something from my grandfather."

As soon as I finished speaking, the old man's expression changed, he looked at me in surprise, and stood up...
