White Bone Monkey King

"There are four types of drowned corpses."

"The man is on top, the woman is on top, and the head is on top."

Jin An saw the old Taoist priest holding the barrel, his stomach was churning, and he couldn't speak completely, so he helped the old Taoist priest to answer everyone's questions.

A man on top and a woman on top?

Lacking experience in life in the world, several princes and princesses who lived in the palace all year round looked at Jin An curiously.

Even the masters from Yujing Golden Tower and Zhenguo Temple, who were devoted to hard cultivation and ignored what was going on outside the window, also looked over.

Jin An continued to explain on behalf of the old Taoist priest: "The man on top and the woman on the bottom means that the man drowned face down and the woman drowned face up. This is because the woman's pelvic bone is slightly larger than the man's and the center of gravity of the body is different."

"The head and the bottom, specifically the head and the bottom and the top and the bottom of the head and the feet. Normally speaking, as long as a drowned person lies flat and is suspended in the air, there is a folk saying that corpse diggers should not dig out a corpse when they encounter it. , that is a straight corpse, whether it is a straight corpse on the head and feet or a straight corpse on the head, bottom and feet, we will not fish it out."

"When you encounter a dead body, it's okay to say it's head and feet. There is a high probability that there is an undercurrent vortex under the water, sucking people in. If a person or a boat approaches, there is a high probability that the person or boat will be sucked in by the invisible undercurrent vortex underwater and the boat will capsize. But since ancient times, there has never been a shortage of people who want money rather than their lives. However, if you encounter a corpse with a straight head and feet, you have to run for your life. No matter how much money you pay, the corpse collector will not salvage the corpse. This is no longer the case. Corpses, but obviously giving up one's life, making money but not spending one's life."

He continued to talk about the reason: "The straight corpses on the head and feet are usually people who died in vain. They are looking for scapegoats to take them ashore, and whoever touches them will die. Because people who die in a violent way are very unwilling to die, and they are a disaster. The air is blocked in the throat, and water is a place where evil spirits gather. The longer the corpse is soaked, the heavier the air in the throat becomes, and it becomes top-heavy, with the head down and the feet up."

Hearing Jin An's explanation, everyone praised Jin An endlessly. They praised Jin An as not only a young hero with extraordinary qualifications, but also as someone who knew all kinds of knowledge from all over the world, just like Daochang Chen, who knew everything.

The princesses looked at Jin An's beautiful eyes, as if they could talk, and they all smiled into beautiful crescent moons.

Jin An said with a smile: "I heard all this from an old Taoist priest. I just borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha. When it comes to traveling all over the world and knowing everything, the old Taoist priest is the one I admire."

Everyone was surprised to look at the old Taoist priest who was holding a wooden bucket and retching again and again. He was just a little Qigong practitioner. Then they praised them together: "Taoist Master Jin'an and Taoist Master Chen are both real hermits who don't show their real faces. They show their real faces, too." Too modest."

Listening to the compliments coming from the mouths of the third prince and the eighth prince, the old Taoist priest felt proud and proud. His face was rosy and full of energy.

His face was no longer pale, he was no longer panting, and the hands holding the barrel no longer shook.

"Then what should we do with this strange sunken ship next?" someone asked.

"In my opinion, as long as this sunken ship doesn't come to provoke us, we shouldn't create any trouble. This is a bottomless valley, and I don't know how many crises are lurking." Someone else said cautiously.

However, some people were unwilling to do so. For example, Mr. Mo kept staring at the strange sunken ship. He said, "Aren't you curious about what's in that sunken ship?"

"Since someone found this place many years ago, even if the other party did not come for Bihaiguixu, he came for Shaoyang Bureau. Perhaps clues about these two places can be found in the sunken ship. Whether it is to find Bihaiguixu Whether it’s the Xu clues or the Shaoyang Bureau clues, they must both be related to the Shaoyang Bureau. Our trip south this time is not just for the Shaoyang Bureau.”

"No one has entered Bihai Guixu so far, and we don't know how to find the entrance to Bihai Guixu. Because of this, we must not miss any clues, and we should focus on searching the sunken ship."

Mr. Mo said in a deep voice.

Naturally, the people in the Tianshi Mansion had no objections. They all stood by Mr. Mo and supported him.

Yujing Golden Tower and Zhenguo Temple have not made a statement yet.

"Based on the experience of Taoist Jin'an and Taoist Chen, what do you think of this sunken ship?" Uncle Lin turned his head and looked over.

Unexpectedly, Jin An's answer surprised everyone: "If we can't find Bihaiguixu and Shaoyang Bureau, wouldn't it be better? Our purpose of going to sea this time is to prevent someone from breaking the Shaoyang Bureau and preventing the mountain god from resurrecting. Since we If you don’t want the Shaoyang Bureau to be found, why would you board the ship to search for clues? Shouldn’t you just destroy the sunken ship?”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then fell into thinking.

Mr. Mo's expression darkened, and he looked displeased at the junior Jin An who was trying to undermine him. In his eyes, Jin An was just a young Taoist priest. He was an elder, and today he was humiliated by a junior in public. This made him I feel like I've lost face.

"Everyone, this is a clue about Bihai Guixu. Aren't you curious about what is in the legendary Guixu Divine Realm? Guixu Divine Realm is the training ground of Donghuang Taiyi, the God Emperor in the prehistoric period. , even if only a little treasure of heaven and earth leaks out, it will be a great opportunity for me to practice."

Mr. Mo looked at Master Jingchan and Master Juehai from Zhenguo Temple, hoping to win Zhenguo Temple to side with the Tianshi Mansion.

Jin An narrowed his eyes slightly and a cold light flashed: "Listen to the meaning of what Mr. Mo said, Mr. Mo is just like those people outside, he wants to open the shackles of the world and find the Shaoyang Bureau."

The breath on Mr. Mo's body turned cold. He looked at Jin An and said with a smile: "Young young man, being young and energetic is a good thing, but speaking out more often is not a good thing. That is not an upright character, but trouble comes from the mouth. It’s easy to offend people.”

"We haven't even found Bihai Guixu yet, so we just say that Bihai Guixu is related to Shaoyang Bureau. This implication is too strong."

"I also invite the Third, Fifth, Seventh and Eighth Princes to comment on our Tianshi Mansion." Mr. Mo pretended to be indignant.

"Elder Luo Tian, ​​you are the actual controller of the Feng Shui Lingzhu. Do you think we should board the ship or destroy it?" The third prince did not give a clear answer, but turned to look at Luo Tian.

This meaning is already obvious, the third prince prefers Tianshi Mansion.

Tianshi Mansion, which is good at Feng Shui and geology, and finding tombs and acupoints, has been operating in the capital for so many years, and has met many officials and nobles in the court and central government. If you can win over Tianshi Mansion, you will gain a huge network of people behind Tianshi Mansion. Moreover, Tianshi Mansion has the willingness to rely on the imperial power. Compared with Yujing Golden Tower and Zhenguo Temple, Tianshi Mansion is also more favored by the royal family.

Jin An was not surprised at all by the third prince's decision. If someone were put in the third prince's position, in order to maximize profits and stand out among several brothers, others would make the same decision as the third prince.

Luo Tian pretended to think and said: "Since we can encounter the sunken ship, other people who first descended into the bottomless valley may have also encountered this sunken ship. Your Highness, the Third Prince, why don't we board the ship to check for dangers first, and then destroy it?" Let’s go down the sunken ship, lest someone with evil intentions hides in the sunken ship and wants to murder several of your highnesses when we relax our vigilance.”

The Feng Shui Lingzhu is in Luo Tian's hands. Whether Shenzhou stays or leaves depends on what Luo Tian says. If he says he wants to board the ship, the others can only follow.

The Shenzhou approached the sunken ship.
