"How's the quality?" Upon hearing this, the man's eyes lit up.
"No different from living people." Lao Yang said, grinning.
"So, how old is this thing?" the man said, becoming more and more happy.
"I don't know the exact year, but judging by the clothing and the material of the coffin, it must be at least two hundred years." Lao Yang said, looked at me, and I nodded to express my agreement with him. Who would have known that that person suddenly
Hearing that the female corpse had only been dead for more than two hundred years, she looked a little disappointed: "Two hundred years... is a bit short. It's not that easy to sell it for a big price."
He said, shook his head and stood up to leave. Seeing him like this, I knew that this person was definitely trying to lower the price. However, we were not really talking about business with him, so there was no need to mess around with him. Thinking of this, I told him
He stopped, looked up and down with great interest, and then asked: "Brother, the price is easy to tell. I have something unclear. If you are willing to enlighten me, the price will not be a problem."
"Yeah, yeah, don't leave in a hurry." At this moment, Xiaopang also took over the words, stood up, pushed the man down on his seat, and started to brag with him.
This guy is really shameless, he dares to say anything, and what he says is as if it is the truth. That person is a veteran, and when he saw that there was too much water in Xiaopang's words, he kept shaking his head and smiling bitterly.
When Lao Yang saw this, he quickly stopped him and immediately squinted his old eyes and asked the man what he wanted so many ancient corpses for. After hearing this, the man hesitated and refused to say anything, but he couldn't stand a few people and made insinuations. It didn't take long.
Finally, we got some conversation out of it, and it turned out that some people actually use zombies to make elixirs.
Alchemy occupies a very important position in the history of Taoism in China. Most Taoist priests are destined to Alchemy, and some Taoist priests even engage in this very special smelting work throughout their lives.
But there are very few people who can actually refine elixirs, because the elixirs they refine contain a large proportion of lead and mercury, and even if the essence of heaven and earth is eaten, they will not be much better. Therefore,
Someone once joked that most of those who made alchemy died in their own hands.
When I was a child, I read history books and often saw emperors in the Qin and Han dynasties asking for elixirs of immortality. However, if you sum up carefully, you will find that the immortal alchemists who made elixirs for the emperors were all charlatans. There were almost no capable people.
by them
Most of the emperors who were supported by the elixirs did not live to be fifty years old. Moreover, a very strange phenomenon is that many Taoist priests who made elixirs did not take their own elixirs. Therefore, I have always felt that those Taoist priests who made elixirs did not eat their own elixirs.
Extremely unreliable.
However, there are still exceptions. Among the immortal alchemists after the Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the masters who were able to achieve Taoism were masters of alchemy. For example, the Fifth Northern Patriarch of Taoism and the legendary "Wudang Alchemist" lived a lifetime.
Those who are interested can make some statistics. In the long history, almost all the Taoist masters who can be named have their own alchemy theory. And since its proliferation, alchemy has been divided into two branches, internal and external, just like traditional martial arts.
Traditional alchemy, known as external alchemy, usually refers to the special process of refining small pills by burning alchemy in a furnace. In the early days, this method was very popular. After liberation, there were basically no people.
Let’s play with this.
In contrast, the corresponding inner alchemy has become more and more popular. In fact, inner alchemy has many similarities with Chinese qigong theory, and many Taoist practices are influenced by it. This kind of
The method of refining alchemy is to practice your own "elixir". Use the "sea of dantian qi" three inches below the navel as a furnace, and the whole body's essence as raw material. Through special inner movements, the "inner elixir" is gathered to unblock the meridians, activate meridians, strengthen the body and strengthen the body.
effect.
It is said that after completing the cultivation, those who practice inner alchemy can obtain some great supernatural powers that surpass ordinary people, and even more powerful ones can achieve enlightenment and ascend. For example, Zhang Daoling, the founder of Taoism, practiced the Dragon and Tiger Pill. There are also many practices in myths and legends.
"Nine Transformations Golden Elixir".
This kind of alchemy refined by essence is the essence of inner alchemy. According to folklore, almost every monster with magical powers has this thing in its body. If you take it away, his body will
It will lose mana and become very common.
Mr. Chen also told me this statement. He said that the art of alchemy is particularly popular in the Quanzhen Sect, which cultivates both life and life. However, the Zhengyi sect, which mainly focuses on the art of talismans, does not have the concept of inner alchemy. As a Zhengyi sect,
A tributary of a sect, we Maoshan disciples usually don't study those complicated and confusing things, let alone hope to become immortals, so after listening to what that person said, I didn't take these things too seriously.
"You mean, someone bought these corpses to use them to make elixirs?" Unlike me, Xiaopang got very excited when he heard the topic of immortality. He was obviously moved after hearing what the person said.
After hearing this, the other party did not answer directly. He thought for a while and then said: "We don't know the specific situation. We only know that some foreigners are very interested in this thing. Last time, a man from the Yuan Dynasty
The female corpse was dug out and immediately sold for a lot of money. Rumor has it, I heard that it was a professor from your university who found it, and it went viral all of a sudden!"
"Professor Zhen?" Lao Yang said, looking at each other.
"Do you know each other?" Upon hearing this, the man's face changed slightly and he looked a little embarrassed. Seeing him like this, I waved my hand and said with a smile: "Oh, I think we know each other. He visited us last time and said
If you want to take the things from us, if the price is not suitable, then the negotiation has not been completed."
"Oh...that's it...then...how much money do you guys want for me?" The man said, his eyes flickering as if he was very concerned. When Lao Yang saw it,
He smiled and said directly: "You haven't seen the thing yet, how can you say the price? Just wait a moment and I'll find someone to take you to see it. I'll tell you the price after seeing the thing."
As Lao Yang said, he got down from his seat to make a phone call. Ten minutes later, two plainclothes men rushed over. They pretended to be polite to the boy and took him and his two brothers who were eating together. This man
When he left, he was still beaming with joy, and his demeanor made everyone almost laugh.
I waved my hand, indicating that everyone should not continue on this topic for too long, and quickly finished eating. I asked Xiaopang to help me send Ding Ling and the others back, and told them not to run around. Then I took a taxi with Lao Yang and went back to the police.
Bureau.
Outsiders were not allowed to enter the interrogation room, so I waited in the corridor for the results.
