From this point of view, it is the same as those of us who use divine power to exert magical powers. Later we learned that there are some common laws in this world. What is lost is what is gained, and blessings and misfortunes come together. What is gained must be gained.
lose.
Whether it is the craftsmanship of holding back the treasure or the Taoism of Maoshan, these are all crafts that look very beautiful. However, the unusual craftsmanship is often extremely sinister, leaving no room for the opponent and no room for oneself. The more you borrow, the more
The more you pay, the more you will have to pay back. Before anything happened to Master Jiu, someone who did this came to ask for help.
Help, that person is in this business, but he is not a direct descendant of aristocratic family, he seems to be a monk on the way. When he came to our place, he was wearing a hooded clothes with a hood and a mask to cover himself tightly. At that time
It was still summer, the hottest time, so I was particularly impressed.
When he saw him, Master Jiu's expression changed. He asked the fat aunt to help persuade the pilgrims. Then, he closed the door of the iron building and showed him the symptoms. He waited for him to put on the clothes, masks and gloves he was wearing outside.
We all took them off, and Xiaopang and I were both frightened. At that time, we thought it was the legendary zombie crawling out of the ancient tomb and coming to the door on its own. It was not until the other party told his origin that we were more or less convinced.
.
This person said that he was a treasure hunter. Not long ago, he accidentally made a mistake. In the profession of hold treasure, failure is generally not allowed. Once he fails, he will be counterattacked by the spell. Therefore, hold treasure
People are very cautious before taking action.
But this boy learned a side trade and knew a little about many things. He had been fine before, but this time he ran into trouble. In a few days, his body was completely degenerate, and his skin turned black and wrinkled. Just like that
It's the same as the bark growing on old trees.
I asked him to take off his shirt, looked at it for a few times, and then shook his head.
The man understood what Master Jiu meant and said nothing, so he put on his clothes and hat and left. Not long after, the body was found lying in a drainage ditch in the suburbs.
What particularly impressed me was that there were many stitched wounds on his body, especially on his arms. The most obvious ones were like cutting a two-foot-long gash with a knife and then sewing them up with needles and threads.
It was the same as going up. I asked Mr. Jiu what happened to the wound. He said that it was their magic.
He made the incision himself, and he also made the needle incision himself. In the wound, he buried a lot of pearls and other things. For this reason, there should be no more and no less. When the skin and flesh gradually healed, the pearls would be
It grows together with the arm. When the time comes, it will be easier to do work with half the effort, and it will be easier to find the baby.
As soon as I heard this, I was speechless and asked, is this method really effective? Master Jiu shook his head and said, this is something I have heard too. I don’t know what happened specifically, but he still called me, "Ji Ling" in the future.
Yeah, it's best to inquire about this kind of business.
That one, among all the people I have seen, was the only one who asked for help, Jin Jiuye was helpless. I don’t know whether it was Jin Jiuye who really had no choice, or whether it was because Jiuye was unwilling to take action due to various factors.
Anyway, the final result is the same, he died, and died in a very hideous and painful way.
This incident was just a passing incident and had no impact at the time. I also asked Mr. Jiu if the person holding the treasure had something to do with us, but Mr. Jiu just shook his head and said, many years ago, there was an old friend with whom
We Maoshan disciples fought side by side, but in the end we discovered that
We, those people, various folk alchemists, all of us together have been used. As for what the process of what he said happened, including Mr. Chen and me.
Everyone, including the two uncles, remained silent and did not want to reveal anything.
Intentionally or unintentionally, I glanced at Mr. Qiu. The old man's face changed slightly. I knew that this sentence reminded him of something. However, there is no need for me to go to all the trouble to dig out the past events that no one wants to mention. Although,
From a personal perspective, I'm very curious.
"I know, that's generally how it is." I said, shrugging with my hands in my pockets.
After listening to my explanation, Mr. Qiu stood there thoughtfully, took a puff of the cigarette butt, and then coughed twice as if he was choked. He adjusted there for a long time, and then said:
"You just said that they have a special set of skills to find treasures. Do you know what they are specifically? Is it reliable to bury pearls? Is there anything else besides this?"
"Didn't I say that this is too professional? Dao is separated by lines like mountains. Things that seem similar to you are actually completely different. In Taoism alone, there are five major categories: mountain, medicine, fortune, fortune telling, and divination.
Not to mention, there are so many little ones
It’s classified. Don’t say that I don’t know those people. Even if I do know them, there may not be a way to find out. If you are really interested, you’d better find a serious successor and ask. I’m really not good at it.”
I said with a wry smile.
"Sigh... You said it's easy, but in reality, it's not that easy. You also know that something like this happened many years ago. Due to poor decision-making, the official agency has lost the power of the people.
At that time, no one thought that the trust of strange people would become what it is now. Let me tell you something from my heart. A few decades ago, the problems we are encountering now would have been different.
The question is not a problem, but it is completely different now than before. Most of the folk weirdos who have interacted with us avoid us like the plague. The better ones stay shut, and the worse ones say nothing.
Even if you can say it out loud, I feel helpless, but what can I do? It’s hard to disobey the law, so who cares what kind of mess you left behind."
"What exactly happened that year? Can you tell me about it?" I asked after hesitating.
"Sigh... There are many things that happened back then, and they are very complicated. They cannot be explained clearly in a short while. Since it has passed, let him go. Oh, by the way, I will change
If you have any clues, please call me. If you run into trouble, it's the same thing. You know, I'm not young anymore, so you should be considerate of the old man and help pay attention."
The other party said, patted me on the shoulder and turned to leave. At this time, I suddenly remembered something: "Hey, old man, you haven't told me yet, why are you asking this? This man who holds back his treasure can hold it back.
They are all gold, silver and jewelry, but they won’t work on any kind of turtles or animals!”
