Zhang Yuanshan whispered in Li Bing's ear: "Li Bing, only you can see the red light on the coffin. That's because you have the Suzaku Qi and six relics in your body. I don't practice enough, so I can't detect anything. I have to

With your strength.”

Before Li Bing could react, Zhang Yuanshan had stretched out his right hand to hold Li Bing's hand tightly. Zhang Yuanshan, who had just finished reciting the incantation, felt a warm heat coming from his palm, which was peaceful, powerful, and irresistible.

Zhang Yuanshan suddenly trembled, and he also saw the faint red light above the coffin. Zhang Yuanshan closed his eyes and muttered words, and the muscles on his face were deformed and twisted in incredible ways.

Everyone was so surprised that they all held their breath and looked at Zhang Yuanshan.

After a long time, Zhang Yuanshan slowly opened his eyes, with a mysterious smile on his face.

"Qian Hui," Zhang Yuanshan shouted loudly, "please all your family members and relatives kneel down in front of the coffin without any mistakes."

Qian Hui and others were already shocked and confused when they saw the Taoist priest's mysterious behavior. After hearing Zhang Yuanshan's shout, they had no time to think, and they all hurriedly knelt down in front of the coffin.

Zhang Yuanshan said loudly: "Qian Hui, is your old man's name Qian Genda?"

Qian Hui was extremely surprised and said hurriedly: "That is exactly the name of my late father. How did you know it?" Qian Hui forgot that his father's name was written on the memorial tablet on the altar table.

Zhang Yuanshan did not answer Qian Hui, but said loudly: "Qian's Yang has not yet expired, so his life should not be cut off. He just held his breath for a moment and his soul left his body. You open the coffin immediately and add incense to restore the Yang."

Everyone present was shocked and confused. It took Qian Hui a long time to realize. He no longer cared whether what the Taoist priest said was true or false. With a glimmer of hope, he hurriedly asked two people to open the coffin lid.

Several people looked up and saw Qian Genda in the coffin with a peaceful expression, as if he had just fallen asleep.

Seeing that a note of incense was almost burning to the end, and everyone was looking at each other, they suddenly heard a few people next to the coffin yelling, and they all rolled to the ground in fear.

I saw two hands stretching out from the coffin, clinging to the mouth of the coffin. After a while, Qian Gen's head emerged from the coffin, looking at everything around him with a confused look.

Qian Hui asked with a trembling voice: "Are you...are you...a human or a ghost?"

Qian Gen was so angry that he raised his hand and gave his son Qian Hui, who was standing by the coffin, a big slap in the face and cursed: "You are an unfilial son, do you want me to die early?"

Qian Hui was not angry but happy after being slapped in the face, and quickly helped Qian Genda out of the coffin. Everyone was stunned. When they came to their senses, they all cheered and shouted in unison: "Old Qian is not dead, he is still alive."

Wow, this Taoist priest is really amazing."

The trumpeters left angrily after asking for some money. The Qian family members cheered and all knelt down to Zhang Yuanshan in excitement.

Zhang Yuanshan smiled slightly and said: "Don't thank me too much, it's your old man's life that should not be cut off. If you want to thank me, thank my brother. It was he who saw the red light on the coffin, and then I knew that the old man's life was not over."

"

Everyone was overjoyed and thanked them profusely. Li Bing and others finally escaped and continued walking along the small mountain road to the ruined temple on the top of the mountain.

After a few people climbed up the mountain, it was already noon and everyone was exhausted and out of breath.

On the top of the mountain, there was a small, lonely temple that was in dilapidated condition. Li Bing and others felt a sense of desolation when they entered the temple.

Zhang Yuanshan bowed several times to the only statue in the temple, then stood up and said: "This is not a temple, it is a Taoist temple. It is just that it has been in disrepair and has few incense, so it is what it is now."

Zhao Waner said: "No wonder the temple is different from what I usually see. It turns out to be a Taoist temple. Brother Zhang, who is the statue you worship?"

Zhang Yuanshan said with a solemn expression: "This is our Taoist Emperor Zhenwu, also called Emperor Xuanwu. Legend has it that he was the third emperor of heaven after the abdication of the Jade Emperor. He descended to earth and incarnated as the human emperor Fu Xi. He married the great goddess Nuwa as brother and sister.

The birth of two sons, Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, gave birth to our Chinese nation."

Looking at everyone's pious eyes, Zhang Yuanshan continued: "Xuanwu Emperor is the god of the north and the water god. He is born from the taiyin, the essence of the water level. He responds to dangers, and turtles and snakes merge into each other. He travels around the world and deters all spirits. Emperor Xuanwu

The seven constellations in the north of the twenty-eight constellations are in charge of "Dou, Ox, Female, Void, Danger, Room, and Wall". Among the seven constellations, there is Dou. Taoism attaches great importance to the worship of the fighting star, saying that "the south dipper is for life, and the north dipper is for death."

From the day of reincarnation, there is a transition from Nandou to Beidou. Human life and longevity are all controlled by Beidou. Therefore, when people pray for longevity, they must worship Emperor Zhenwu."

"Because the seven constellations in the north form a turtle shape, and there is a soaring snake star under it, so the turtle and snake are combined; it is located in the north, belongs to water, and its color is black, so it is called Xuanwu. Whenever the true king Xuanwu slays demons and hoe demons, he travels with a sword.

Because the Heavenly Escape with a sword is faster than flying through the clouds and mist. We came here because we found Xuanwu Qi here on the Qianling Mausoleum, and now there is a statue of Emperor Xuanwu in this hill. It seems to be God's will."

Li Bing suddenly made a strange "Hey" cry and said, "Come and see, what is this?"

Zhang Yuanshan took a closer look and saw that Li Bing was holding a dark object in his palm. Li Bing accidentally discovered it from the weeds under the statue.

Looking carefully, I saw the shape of a turtle carved on it, and a small snake juxtaposed on the side. Zhang Yuanshan was overjoyed and exclaimed: "Li Bing, this is not an ordinary clay sculpture, this is the shape of a turtle and snake. Turtle and Snake

The entwining, the combination of yin and yang, is the great god Xuanwu. "Ling Ying Lu" records the story of someone who killed a turtle and snake and got into trouble. It is said that this turtle and snake is the great god Xuanwu."

Li Bing carefully collected the turtle and snake and put it into his travel bag. Someone called out from outside the temple. Several people walked out of the ruined temple and saw Qian Hui and his wife walking up the mountain carrying three baskets.

It turned out that Qian Genda, who had been resurrected, had not seen many people coming down the mountain for a long time. Seeing that it was almost noon, he ordered his son and wife to put the food in a basket and send it up the mountain to Li Bing and others for lunch to repay the kindness of saving his life.

Li Bing and others were extremely grateful and felt really hungry, so they sat around and ate hot meals unceremoniously.

Qian Hui waited for the few people to finish eating, then cleared the dishes with his wife, and sincerely invited the few people to have dinner with them when they passed by their house after going down the mountain to express their gratitude.

After Qian Hui and his wife left, Li Bing and others began to wander around the top of the mountain, admiring the beautiful scenery around them.

Three figures walked up not far away. Li Bing and the others stopped and stared. After a while, they saw clearly that they were three female students.

The three female students were all pretty and pretty, but they all looked a little nervous.

When they saw Li Bing and his party of five, they were stunned for a moment and did not speak to each other. The three of them went directly into the Temple of Emperor Xuanwu.

Li Bing was watching the three people kowtow devoutly outside the temple. Suddenly, something seemed to be moving in his travel bag. Li Bing opened the travel bag and was surprised to see that the turtle and snake clay sculpture he had just found in the temple was trembling.

, and there was a trace of black air.

Li Bing hurriedly asked others to come and see, but the four people saw nothing. Not to mention the black air, even the clay sculpture was motionless in their eyes.

After a while, Li Bing breathed a sigh of relief and told everyone: "This turtle and snake clay sculpture has stopped moving, and the black air has disappeared."

After Zhang Yuanshan heard what Li Bing said, he saw that the three girls had just finished worshiping Emperor Xuanwu and had left the temple gate. Zhang Yuanshan was deep in thought and suddenly realized something, and hurried forward to greet them.

Zhang Yuanshan said straight to the point: "Hello, you three, it is fate that we meet here. I, Zhang Yuanshan, am a Taoist priest of the Maoshan sect. You guys seem to have something to do to come here to worship Emperor Xuanwu. Who are you and why did you come here?

?”

The three girls were stunned at first, and then were pleasantly surprised after what Zhang Yuanshan said. One of them, a petite and beautiful girl, said: "We are sophomore students at the university over the mountain, and we encountered some terrible and confusing things.

Only then did I go up the mountain to burn incense and pray for peace. The day before yesterday was the first day of the new year when I reported, but I encountered a terrible thing. But now there is no time, we have to return to school quickly. Can you leave the contact information of the Taoist priest? Wait until we are free.

Come and ask for advice."

Seeing that the three girls didn't want to say anything, Zhang Yuanshan smiled, tore off a piece of paper, wrote the name of the hotel where he was staying and his phone number, and handed it to the petite girl.
