The years of reselling the haunted house

I didn't hide it either, so I nodded.

Chu Liuyan said: "Okay. I won't hide it from you. I really found your six ancient talismans this trip. It's just that I didn't want to tell you about these six talismans. In my opinion At least you don't need to know yet. But since you're back, let me tell you a little bit."

Chapter 959 Divine Talisman Explanation ([-])

I was taken aback, Chu Liuyan was not a selfish person.He learned the secret of the ancient talisman, but why didn't he want to tell me.If I didn't turn it back, he wouldn't have told me about the ancient rune?

Perhaps seeing something wrong with my eyes, Chu Liuyan hurriedly waved his hands and explained: "Li Yang, don't get me wrong. I don't mean to take this ancient talisman for myself. I just think, if I tell you Ancient talisman, you know the magic of this ancient talisman, you will not be able to resist using it. But if you are not good enough, you will suffer from it. At that time, this talisman will not only not help you, but will also harm you. I'm worried, that's all."

I smiled wryly and said, "Master, of course I believe you. But I am also an adult, so I don't have any self-control. Besides, how amazing this thing is, I'm afraid that I can't help but try it." it?"

Chu Liuyan nodded: "After all, you got this ancient talisman, so it's not appropriate not to tell you. Then just listen, there are seven ancient talismans, but you have forgotten the seventh one. I only took these six talismans, walked five deep mountains, visited several rune masters in the Taoist sect, and asked them to help identify them, and finally got some methods for the six talismans in my hand. Remember, these six talismans The talismans have their own names, in order from front to back, they are avoid, town, edict, book, rest, hidden..."

"Avoid, town, imperial edict, book, interest, hidden..." I repeated the name of the Six Dao Talisman, but I didn't know what to say.

Chu Liuyan continued to explain: "These six characters represent one of the talismans. It seems to be just six talismans, but it is said that the changes of these six talismans come from the number of 36 changes in Tiangang. The person who created this ancient talisman even The changes of Tianchen's geography are integrated into the talisman art, which is deeply rooted in its essence. Therefore, each talisman has a different change. If you have the opportunity, you can slowly figure it out when you come to the road in the future. For example, the avoiding characters..."

While talking, Chu Liuyan poured two cups of tea and handed me one.It seemed that he wanted to tell me about the ancient runes in detail, so I took a sip of tea and listened to him quietly.

"In ancient times, all cultivators wanted to practice Taoism and become immortals, but to achieve this goal, they had to stay away from the secular world and escape to the mountains. An old saying goes, "There is no way in the mountains, but those who practice Taoism must enter the mountains. If you want to be far away from the other It is fishy, ​​but it is clean. "However, in ancient times, due to the sparse population and the backwardness of science and technology, people who climbed mountains and waded often encountered threats from uncertainties such as tigers, wolves, snakes, diseases, etc. If these hazards cannot be avoided, there is still life. Zhiyu, how can we talk about health preservation and immortality? Therefore, some people use talismans to eliminate the dangers in the mountains, so that they can sleep in peace. There are ancient records about this kind of talisman, and it is not only Taoist priests. Those who escaped the chaos and went into the mountains and forests can get a talisman and sew the talisman into their collar to avoid the ghosts, spirits, tigers, wolves, insects and poisons in the mountains and rivers. There are many kinds of such talismans, such as Laojun Huang Ting Zhongtai 49 The real secret talisman, Lao Tzu's entry into the mountain talisman, etc. And this ancient talisman's evasion character has this purpose, and its effect is even higher than those of other runes."

Chu Liuyan quoted scriptures and talked about the function of the character-avoiding talisman. I summed it up and said: "That is to say, if you enter the deep mountains with this talisman, you can avoid ghosts, spirits, tigers, wolves, and insects."

"That's right. Tell me, isn't this ancient talisman a treasure?"

I nodded: "It's really extraordinary, what about the next ones?"

Chu Liuyan went on to say: "The second talisman is the town character. This town character is divided into two methods, namely thunder and fire, and divided into two responsibilities for offense and defense. The thunder talisman has the ability to suppress ghosts. It can grasp five thunders, and the talisman is like thunder. The fire talisman can Returning wind and returning fire, practicing the art of wind and fire. Therefore, this town character is also called thunder fire talisman, sending out the talisman can drive away ghosts, and sticking the talisman in the hall can make evil spirits dare not invade."

"Thunder fire talisman..." I thought about it carefully, and said: "The word town is divided into two ways, no wonder..."

Chu Liuyan asked: "What's the reason? What did you think of?"

I explained: "When my third uncle and I went to Huangnigou Village, we saw this ancient talisman on the pillars of the Huang family's old house. At that time, the two pillars were not very detailed, and I felt like the second. Dao talisman. Later I thought it was like two runes, and now I know that they are the second town character, but it is divided into thunder talisman and fire talisman, so I thought it was two talismans. You just said, This town character, affixed to the hall, can make evil spirits dare not invade. No wonder that half-ghost Lu Feng dared not come forward. This talisman is really powerful."

Chu Liuyan nodded: "Of course. This thunder and fire talisman can advance, attack, retreat, or defend. It can be used like thunder, and it can also use wind and fire. If you practice well, you can use this talisman as an attack talisman, and ghosts and gods will retreat. But... "

I smiled and said: "However, I still don't have enough Taoism, and I need to practice more Taoism."

Chu Liuyan smiled and said: "You kid, it's good to know. I won't let you use it lightly, just because I'm afraid that if you don't have enough knowledge, if you force the talisman, you will be really injured by the counter-shock of the talisman, and the gods will be hard to save. This kind of talisman is powerful. The bigger it is, the stronger the shock.”

I nodded to show that I understand, after all, the lesson learned was not long ago.

Chu Liuyan saw that my mood was a little depressed, and said: "However... this thunder and fire talisman is the easiest to get started among the six talismans. That is to say, you can try to draw this talisman after practicing inner strength for another month. Dao Thunder and Fire Talisman. But you have to proceed step by step, and stop immediately when you find that your internal force cannot support the rune. When you can draw both Thunder and Fire Talismans smoothly, you can try to use the Talisman."

Chu Liuyan finally gave me a little hope, otherwise this kind of ancient talisman is so unattainable, it already makes me feel a little daunted.

I remembered what Chu Liuyan said, and when I was ready to practice to a certain stage, I tried to draw the Thunder Fire Talisman again.

Chu Liuyan continued: "If you want to draw a talisman, you must first understand the runes. I will then tell you about the remaining four talismans, avoiding, suppressing, edict, book, resting, hidden... This third talisman is an edict, for The edict of the imperial edict. The edict is also the order of the emperor. After learning the characters of this edict, he will summon the local mountain gods wherever he goes, and also summon the land, mountain gods, and house gods of the houses of the mountains, rivers, and prefectures according to the list of ghosts and gods. When the practice reaches a higher level, the talisman drawer holds the edict characters and turns them into the "Festival of Eight Powers", which can serve the land and mountain gods."

"Can you enslave the land and mountain gods? I read Journey to the West, and I saw that Sun Wukong went to a place, and he chanted a mantra to summon the local mountain gods to ask questions, and sometimes asked them to help with things. Doesn't this edict character have grandson monkeys? Supernatural powers?" I questioned, feeling that what Chu Liuyan said was getting more and more exaggerated.

Chapter 960 Divine Talisman Explanation ([-])

Chu Liuyan smiled and said: "That is a mythical novel after all. In the novel, the normal things will definitely be exaggerated and exaggerated to the maximum extent, but the source should come from the edict characters. The edict characters of our Taoist school are not like novels. Like in the movie, the land of the mountain gods stands in front of you, and you give orders here and let them do this and that. You just put the meaning you want to express into the symbol when you draw it. In fact, the rune itself It is a tool used to communicate the thoughts of people and ghosts and gods. After the ghosts and gods connect the talismans, they will do things for you, which you cannot see. Of course, I have never used this ancient talisman, and I do not rule out There are other changes to the more advanced stages."

I nodded: "This is already very good."

Chu Liuyan continued: "The next thing is the book characters. The book symbols can be sealed, and seven arrows nailed to the head can be used thousands of miles away to collect people's souls. This also appeared in ancient deductive novels. In the Romance of the Gods, Zhao Gongming The Xiqi battlefield relied on Dinghaizhu and Binding Longsuo to kill the Quartet. Later, Jiang Ziya used the nail-headed seven-arrow book to build a high platform in Xiqi. The mulberry branch bow and the peach branch arrow, three arrows hit the straw man, and Zhao Gongming was killed. Of course, there are also exaggerations in it, but the script characters are real. If the other party is not Damn people, don't use it, or you will be punished by heaven."

"What about the interest characters and hidden characters?" I nodded and asked.

"The breath talisman is taken up to nine breaths, which has the effect of self-healing. When your vitality is insufficient or your body is damaged, you can draw a breath character when the moon is in the sky to help you heal and replenish qi. The hidden talisman can be invisible. Small ones can avoid ghost eyes, but large ones can keep away from human eyes. Hidden characters should come from invisible symbols. However, these hidden characters are divided into big hidden characters and small hidden characters. Small hidden symbols can not be seen by ghosts. But to be truly invisible, no one can see it. However, I guess it is not easy for this great hermit to achieve this kind of invisibility. I have never heard of anyone who can use a great hidden talisman. Whether this ancient talisman can do this also requires you You have to reach a very high level of good fortune yourself.”

I smiled wryly and said, "I guess this is unlikely. When this ancient talisman was created, it was probably intended to be used after cultivating Taoism and becoming an immortal. If there really is an invisibility technique in this world, wouldn't it be a mess?"

Chu Liuyan waved his hand: "This can't be so absolute. A cultivator must cultivate his own way. Whether he can reach a certain level depends on the nature of the cultivator. Don't worry about these, just cultivate your own way."

I nodded, looked at the pattern of the six ancient talismans I had drawn, shook my head and said, "Anyway, I understand what the six talismans mean. This is indeed a rare and good thing, but it's a pity I can't remember the seventh rune."

Chu Liuyan said: "It's up to people. As long as this ancient talisman is destined for you, I think the seventh rune will come to you at the right time. The masters I asked for advice also said a lot about this seventh rune. Most of them are inferences based on their own cultivation. Based on their judgments, I think the most likely is a kind of escape character. The escape character can use the five elements to escape, and it can travel through gold, wood, water, fire, and earth on its own."

I smiled and said, "Isn't this what often appears in the Romance of the Gods, such as earth escape, fire escape, water escape? After chanting a spell, the person disappears in a flash, and escapes with the earth."

Chu Liuyan nodded: "Yes, this is it."

I shook my head: "The more you say it, the more outrageous it is. If you can draw seven ancient talismans, then you are not a human, but a fairy."

I have always been skeptical about this outrageous supernatural power.Chu Liuyan also smiled slightly at this, and didn't continue to argue with me, but just handed over the runes of the six divine talismans to me again: "You take this with you. It's the same sentence. When you are free, you can continue to master the lines of the runes. But don’t use the method of drawing talismans lightly. After you memorize these talismans, you can destroy them, otherwise they will be coveted by many people if they are passed on to the world.”

I nodded and said: "I understand, Master. But my Taoism cannot be improved in a day or two. How about practicing this ancient talisman for you and third uncle. Maybe you have high Taoism and high internal strength, and you can Practice this talisman as soon as possible."

Chu Liuyan waved his hand: "That's not right. This practice of ancient talisman requires a clean word. In other words, the purer the vitality of the person who practices the talisman, the better. Your third uncle and I have practiced Taoism for many years, and the internal skills we have practiced are also very complicated. .Even if you start practicing the ancient talisman now, there will be no better effect, or it will hurt your body. But you are different, you just need to continue to practice according to the inner strength and mental method I taught you, the vitality is pure, and then practice the ancient The talisman has the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort."

"Okay then." I collected the talisman, and felt that although I understood the true content of the six talismans, I still felt that there was a big distance from this ancient talisman.

I knew very well in my heart that if I wanted to practice the talisman, I would have to ask Chu Liuyan for advice at every stage in the future.It can be seen that Chu Liuyan does have a very high status in runes.What he understands is beyond the knowledge of ordinary people.

I took the talisman and left from Wushantang. I didn't have anything else to do, so I went straight back to the hotel.

During this time, the few of us stayed in Wushan Hall almost every day.In the evening, I will practice breath adjustment. During the day, I will mostly exchange breath adjustment experience with Chu Liuyan. In my spare time, I will read the feng shui spectrum given to me by my third uncle.Chu Liuyan will also understand our physical condition based on our reaction that night, and when necessary, will make some fine-tuning of our breath adjustment process, which is a kind of answering questions.

So I didn't go back to the hotel for more than a month.During this period of time, I don't know what the third uncle was busy with. He didn't look for me, and he didn't even call me.

This made me very curious. Generally speaking, he would not ignore such a new thing as our internal strength training, at least he could watch it for fun.He is not a person who can stand quiet.

It was just after noon when I returned to the hotel. According to the previous habit, whenever Third Uncle was free, he would definitely take a nap.He said that taking a nap at this time can replenish Yang Qi and make the body full of vitality.

So I went directly to my third uncle's room, and wanted to see what he was up to.

The door of Uncle San's room was unlocked, so I walked in. He was half leaning on the bed, staring at something.The thing was hung from the lamp on the ceiling by a thread, and it was dangling back and forth in front of Third Uncle.

No.12 Volume Kowloon Underground Palace

Chapter 961 An Nanguo

I took a closer look, and the thing hanging in front of his eyes turned out to be a copper coin.

I stood at the door, but Uncle San didn't notice me.I saw the copper coin dangling for a while, so my third uncle pulled it with his hand, and the copper coin swayed again.

I really didn't understand what Uncle San was playing, so I walked in and asked, "Uncle San, are you insomnia?"

The third uncle was stunned, and sat up: "You are back? What did you say? What insomnia?"

I grabbed the copper coin in the past and said, "Don't lose sleep, why are you dangling this thing in front of your eyes? Isn't this a method of hypnosis?"

When I held it in my hand, I found that the copper coin was a Qianlong Tongbao.

"Nonsense. I'm just looking at this thing and thinking about something." The third uncle yawned and leaned back on the bed again.

"Third Uncle, is this the Qianlong Tongbao we got in the Huang's old house?" I asked.

At that time, we dug out a stone millstone in the courtyard of the old Huang family house.There is such a copper coin sealed in the hole on the millstone.At that time, we thought it was the royal coin of Qianlong Tongbao, but when we took it to see it, we found it was just an ordinary copper coin, so we were very disappointed.

But the third uncle said that since the copper coin can seal the millstone, it also has a certain effect of suppressing evil, so he kept it with him.I don't know what he intended to hang it up at this time.

The third uncle nodded: "That's right, it's that one, but if you take a closer look, what's the difference between this copper coin and ordinary copper coins?"

"The difference?" I was suspicious, untied the copper coin from the thread, and looked through it in my hand.

To be honest, I had never observed it so carefully before. At that time, I just saw that it was not the five emperors' money, so I didn't pay attention to it.This time I took a closer look and found something special.

Since we have obtained several king coins before, the difference between these king coins and ordinary copper coins is that they are stained with royal aura and have more aura, and the more prominent feature is that the king coins are embedded with gold threads.

That is to say, king money and ordinary copper coins are almost the same in appearance.Usually, the words "Yongzheng Tongbao" and "Kangxi Tongbao" are engraved on the front, while the reverse side is usually Manchu.But the copper coin in my hand does not have Manchu characters on the back, but two Chinese characters are engraved on it, which are "Nan" and "An".

"Nan'an?" I muttered a word, and asked Third Uncle, "You mean these two words differently?"

The third uncle glanced at me, with a helpless expression on his face: "Nephew, it's An Nan. Why do I still say that you are educated, don't you know that characters in ancient times were read from right to left?"

I chuckled: "Nan'an, Annan, they're all about the same. What does that mean?"

"Grass, it's so far away." The third uncle gave me a blank look and said, "I discovered this difference a while ago, and I went to the library to check it out. It turns out that this kind of copper coin is called "Qianlong Tongbao Back Annan" "Coins", the outer circle is also relatively wide. It has a high collection value in the coin market."

"Collection value? How much is this copper coin worth? I don't think your current wealth, Sanshu, will make great efforts to study it just because of this collection value?" I threw the copper coin to Third Uncle.

The third uncle took the copper coins and said with a smile: "You still know me, nephew. There are not many copper coins of this kind in the world, and the collection value is not very great. At best, they are only a few hundred yuan, and the good ones are only a thousand yuan. Of course, this is not what I value. In fact, I want to see if I can find clues about Qianlong Tongbao Wangqin from the back of this copper coin. You see, we have found four of the five Wangqin now. This Qianlong Tongbao royal coin is left. If we don't take the initiative to attack and wait for it to fall on our heads, the chances are too low."

I smiled wryly and said, "The problem is, even if we want to attack, we have nowhere to attack. The probability may not be much higher."

The third uncle threw up the copper coin with his hand, caught it again, and said, "It turns out that there is nowhere to start, but now it may not be. I have been staring at this copper coin for two days, and my instinct tells me that there is a story in it, which may be able to give me a better life." We may not necessarily provide some clues."

I looked at the third uncle and asked, "You still have this ability? Staring at the copper coin, can you see the story behind it?"

The third uncle smiled: "Nephew, your third uncle is very capable. It's not like you don't know it. As long as I, Li Dongbin, want to know, there is nothing I don't know. Come on, sit down, and I will tell you about Annan. The story of the copper coins..."

The third uncle should have had an idea in his heart a long time ago, but he suffered from the fact that no one listened to him.He is a person who can't hide things in his heart, and he finally hoped for me to come back. He must be complaining.

I saw that the special Annan money was also aroused by my third uncle, so I sat down and listened to him.

"Nephew, do you know what Annan means?" Third Uncle asked mysteriously.

"It seems that there used to be a Secretary-General of the United Nations named Annan."

"Get out. Did Qianlong have a fart relationship with the Secretary-General of the United Nations?"

I smiled and shook my head: "Then I don't know."

"Annan is an ancient country, also known as Jiaozhi, probably located in the current Vietnam. It is said that the king of Annan Kingdom was called Li Weiqi. In the 53rd year of Qianlong, Annan Kingdom suffered a coup. At that time, the king of Annan Kingdom Li Weiqi He was forced out of Annan Kingdom by a man named Ruan Hui, and Li Weiqi fled to our current Guangxi territory at that time."

The third uncle spit and spit, and talked incessantly, with seriousness in what he said.

I questioned, "Third Uncle, are these stories you said made up or are they true? This is Vietnam and Guangxi."

"Nonsense. Your third uncle doesn't have anything else, it's more about knowledge reserves. This is all historical knowledge, understand? Even though you are a college student, you may not know as much as your third uncle." The third uncle said brazenly.

"Third Uncle Third Uncle, I was wrong, you continue to say." I said with a smile.

"Where did I say, fuck you just interrupt..." The third uncle cursed, thought for a while, patted his head and continued: "By the way, speaking of the king of Annan who went to Guangxi, the Emperor Qianlong at that time knew about it. At that time, Sun Shiyi, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi at that time, led the troops from Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunnan to help Li Weiqi to regain power. It was counterproductive, and the Qing army finally failed. However, "Ruan Hui", who had already won the Annan regime, was also afraid that the Qing would continue to attack , announced that he supported the rule of the Qing Dynasty and was willing to be a vassal state of the Qing government, so Qianlong did not send troops to attack Annan, so Ruan Hui, the ruler of the Annan Kingdom, cast this in the 55th year of Qianlong in order to show his loyalty. Plant Qianlong Tongbao to carry Annan coins. This is the origin of Qianlong Tongbao carrying Annan coins."

Chapter 962 The Emperor's Secret

After listening to the third uncle, I looked at the Annan coin, and it seemed that I could also see the rich historical origins contained in it.

Sometimes, a certain cultural relic or a certain historic site has a story behind it as long as it is studied deeply.

"Third uncle, can we find clues to Qianlong Tongbao from this coin?" I asked.

The third uncle said: "I don't dare to guarantee this, but if you don't try everything, you don't know if it will succeed. I think the appearance of Qianlong Tongbao carrying Annan Qian will let us find clues to Wang Qian."

I questioned: "Then how did this Annan coin appear in the old Huang's house?"

"Eldest nephew, do you still remember that I once asked about Huang Changfu's ancestor and the things in that ancestral house. He said that his ancestor was once very famous and served as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty?"

I nodded, Huang Changfu did say this.

The third uncle then analyzed: "In the first year of Qianlong, the governor of Yunnan and the governor of Guizhou were set up separately. But in the 12th year of Qianlong, the two governors were combined into one, and the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou was set up and made a custom. So Huang Changfu said he It is reliable that Huang Changfu’s ancestors served as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou. And according to my analysis, the term of office should be in the 55th year of Qianlong. Because there were such Annan coins in that year, Huang Changfu’s ancestors brought this coin collection back.”

"But there is no mention of the five emperors' money, which is the king's money of Qianlong Tongbao."

"Hey, who is your third uncle? Can I talk about this without any news? What I just said about Annan coins is a historical record, and what I will say next is not found in historical records. About Emperor Qianlong The news of the five emperors' money worn."

I smiled and said to third uncle: "Third uncle, it seems that when I was practicing internal strength in Wushan hall, you were not idle here, and there is news of Wudiwangqian?"

"That's natural." The third uncle said proudly: "The king's money of Emperor Qianlong is actually related to this Annan coin. When Annan State made Annan coin, it was the 55th year of Qianlong. So how much money did Qianlong reign? Do you know the year?"

"Emperor Qianlong reigned for 60 years, who doesn't know?"

"That's right." The third uncle nodded: "In other words, in the 55th year of Qianlong, Emperor Qianlong's imperial career had come to an end. In history, Qianlong passed the throne to Jiaqing five years later. But Qianlong's succession It's not because he passed away, nor was he in poor health, but because he had been in power for 60 years, and he felt that he couldn't surpass Kangxi's record of 61 years in power, because that was unfilial, so he chose to abdicate. But I really want to continue the imperial career, so I have to mention the Qianlong Tongbao Wangqian that he wears next. Because the Wangqian is related to it, can he convince himself to persuade the officials and let himself do this? emperor."

"Ah? This king's money still has this function? Uncle, where did you get the news? Why haven't I heard of it? Is it reliable?"

"The emperor's secret, of course, will not be written in the official history. In fact, this may be an attempt by Emperor Qianlong, but it was unsuccessful. He still gave up the throne to Jiaqing five years later. He was wearing With the end of his imperial career, the king's money has already begun to appear cracks. This indicates that the dragon's spirit has slackened and his throne is about to end. At this time, An Nanguo proposed to cast Annan money for the Qing Dynasty. But this Casting money is not the kind of coin in the superficial sense, but a very tempting exchange condition proposed by An Nanguo in order to please Emperor Qianlong."

"Exchange terms? What is the exchange?" The third uncle said more and more bizarrely, and it sounded like a wonderful story to me.

"The exchange is that An Nanguo asked the Qing Dynasty not to crusade against him, and An Nanguo took advantage of the opportunity of casting Annan coins to help Emperor Qianlong replenish the dragon energy. If the dragon energy is replenished, the crack can be healed again. In this way, Emperor Qianlong could justifiably declare to the world that he would continue his imperial career for ten years. As for how to use Annan money to help the king's money replenish the dragon spirit, this specific detail was a high-level secret at the time. In the end, it didn’t flow out. Of course, we have no way of knowing, but I think there must be a good Fengshui master involved. Maybe there is a dragon vein in Yunnan. I only know that later Emperor Qianlong sent himself The king's money was sent to Yunnan, and it has never been taken back."

"Oh? So, this Qianlong Tongbao royal coin is in Yunnan?" I asked.

"It can only be said that the possibility of living in Yunnan is more likely. Who knows who got the king's money later? But I think, since it is a needle in a haystack, why don't we get it in a smaller range?" Sanshu analyzed road.

"Third Uncle, do you want to go to Yunnan?"

The third uncle nodded: "I have this idea."

I shook my head: "Third uncle, what you said is a bit outrageous. Just relying on this unreliable legend, let's go to Yunnan. Isn't this the same as headless flies, bumping around?"
