First-class Celestial Master [Rebirth]

The matter here has almost come to an end. Zhou Tong personally followed Zhao Han to Zhao Jingshan's home to investigate the situation of Tao Puppets and Tianxuan. Zhao Jingshan's hometown is in J City, and he is engaged in real estate. The cunning rabbit and three caves.Taking advantage of Zhao Jingshan being temporarily trapped in the detention center, Zhao Han and his soldiers searched all of Zhao Jingshan's properties for special reasons, and finally found a stone room for storing pottery puppets in a villa on the outskirts of the city.

The stone room was hidden on the second basement floor, and was covered by the garage on the first basement floor. It was very concealed. When Zhou Tong and the others arrived, all the latticework inside had been emptied, leaving only a few broken pottery dolls. , and Zhao Jingshan, who had been prepared for a long time, seemed not afraid of exposing the situation about the pottery puppets at all. Each pottery puppet also had the date of birth of the person being used on it.

Zhao Han was so angry that he punched the wall and said, "Old fox! I knew I couldn't let him go easily!" There are so many shelves here, almost every grid has traces of pottery puppets, and they were moved away under rough estimates. There are as many as fifty pottery puppets, which means that as many as fifty people are still doing the evil deed of changing fate against the sky and diverting vitality under Zhao Jingshan's control.

Zhou Tong had expected this to be the case, but he suspected that Zhao Jingshan was not the one who did it. The female corpse had already been destroyed by the black dragon. Zhao Jingshan had no reason to care about the life and death of these warlocks. It was Tianxuan, or someone else who knew Zhao Jingshan's situation and wanted to use the puppet to do evil.

There were still a few servants in the villa, who looked terrified when Zhao Han rushed in, completely unaware of what happened, and were temporarily confined in the living room on the first floor, watching with trepidation those who suddenly occupied the villa. people's fighters.

Zhou Tong said to Zhao Han, "Go and ask the servant here first."

"Okay." Zhao Han puts Zhou Tong's opinion first in everything now, and completely obeys Zhou Tong's orders.

In the living room on the first floor, Zhou Tong asked about the situation one by one. They were all ordinary servants who didn't know the truth. He only knew that Zhao Jingshan would come to live in the villa for a few days from time to time, and they were never allowed to go in the basement.Thinking again that there is a secret door in the stone room that is independent of the villa, Zhou Tong believed that what these people said could not be false, they really didn't know.

Just as he was at a loss, Ling Yuan suddenly kicked someone out of the shadows. The man looked at Ling Yuan in fear, and knelt down in front of Ling Yuan with a plop, begging with his pale face and trembling lips : "Master, please forgive me, please forgive me—"

Zhou Tong took a closer look, and saw that the man's abdomen was bleeding, and the hem of his dirty shirt was stained red with blood. It was precisely because of the smell of blood that Ling Yuan noticed this man keenly.

Zhou Tong walked over, pressed the man's abdomen, and asked the servant, "Is there a first-aid kit?"

"Yes, yes." The servant rummaged through the cabinet of the coffee table in the living room tremblingly, and took out a first-aid kit. Zhou Tong tore open his shirt, revealing the blood-stained gauze. It was even strangled into the wound. Zhou Tong untied the gauze, and there was a deep and long black wound inside. A maid who couldn't bear the stimulation screamed when she saw it, and hid behind the others in fear.

Zhou Tong frowned, and asked with little hope: "Is there any chicken blood in the house? You can give me some glutinous rice or grapefruit leaves. If it doesn't work, bring me some salt."

"Chicken, chicken blood..." Someone murmured, "Yes, there is chicken blood. My fellow villager just sent a little rooster here today to make up my wife's body. I'll go get it right away!" After a while, he came out with a lively little cock.

Ling Yuan took it from the man, cut off the cockscomb with one knife, squeezed all the blood of the cockscomb into a bowl, and handed it to Zhou Tong.Someone nearby brought the glutinous rice, Ling Yuan took it and watched Zhou Tong's movements.

Zhou Tong pressed the man's wound, and immediately squeezed out thick black blood. Accompanied by a disgusting stench, those who were a little closer turned their heads and vomited uncontrollably.

The man screamed and began to struggle violently. Zhao Han pressed his arm quickly and ordered, "Stop it!"

"Yes!"

Several armed police soldiers immediately pressed the man to the ground quickly. The man's eyes were red and he kept screaming, his eyeballs were round and bloodshot. The pain caused him to almost lose his mind.

Zhou Tong endured the stench, and squeezed out all the black blood from the man's abdomen. Then he saw something exposed in the wound. The small black ball kept wriggling. The wound became bigger and bigger, but the color of the blood became more and more Bright, seeing that it was almost done, Zhou Tong splashed all the blood from the cockscomb in his hand on the wound, and in an instant, blue smoke burst out, and the man roared like a beast, struggling harder and harder, his sweat was wet and dusty The shirt, as if it had been fished out of the water.

Zhou Tong's hands were stained red with blood, and he said: "Be patient." The black and bright object wriggling in the wound stopped wriggling as soon as it was poured with cockscomb blood. There were tweezers in the first-aid kit. Zhou Tong picked up the tweezers and aimed at the target. He dropped his hand quickly and pinched the thing out of the wound.

The fat worm was covered with a hard armor, which was red with blood, and its mouthparts were still opening and closing. The wings on its back fluttered and fell down, dead.

Seeing this, Zhou Tong exhaled, and then looked at the condition of the man's wound. Blood was bubbling out. Zhou Tong stopped the bleeding first, then wiped the wound around with glutinous rice, and finally put on a bandage.

The man's willpower is strong enough, he is not dead yet, he collapsed into the soldier's arms, gasping for breath, it took a long time to catch his breath before he calmed down.

Zhou Tong didn't give him time to rest, and said, "Where are those pottery puppets in the basement going?"

The man looked at Zhou Tong, then looked away, and said in a hoarse voice: "T-was taken away by a devil, I don't know where he took the doll, but, but..." His abdomen twitched. Twitching, he paused for a while, grinning in pain, the wound hurt more than before, but he knew that if it wasn't for the young man in front of him, his life would have been lost here, the man stabilized, trembling hands from his pants He took out a booklet from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Tong, "All the lists on the dolls are here..."

The book was stained with blood so that the original appearance could not be seen clearly, and even a few pages were stuck together due to soaking in blood. Zhou Tong opened the book casually, and saw Luo Lianhai, who had been imprisoned by the pottery puppet before, with scratches on it. On the horizontal line, there is a question mark at the end.

The shiny black beetle had already bitten his internal organs, coupled with the excessive blood loss, the man had a very difficult time speaking, "The people crossed out are dead, and the rest are still alive, you, you can go find them..."

"Okay." Zhou Tong put the notebook away and said, "Thank you." He looked up at Zhao Han and discussed, "Officer Zhao, please take him to the hospital. I have killed the evil insect in the wound. The evil spirit has also been dealt with, and the wound should be treated as normal."

"Okay." Zhao Han nodded and waved his hand to order. The soldiers carried the man out of the villa and sent him to the hospital.

After retreating from the villa, Zhou Tong handed the notebook to Zhao Han and said, "I need to trouble Police Officer Zhao to run around and check the situation of these people. I will explain the relevant situation to them in the Chu family and assist Zhao Han." police officer."

"Thank you."

Zhou Tong smiled and said, "You shouldn't thank me, I just did what ordinary citizens should do."

Zhao Han smiled brightly: "If ordinary citizens were like you, we armed police should be laid off."

Zhou Tong couldn't help laughing.

When he returned to the hotel, Zhou Tong immediately went into the bathroom to take a shower. He bought some grapefruit leaves in advance to get rid of the evil spirit left on his body. After taking a shower, Ling Yuan took his mobile phone and said, "Zeng Ruiming's Telephone."

Zhou Tong suddenly said: "I almost forgot about him, look at my brain." He answered the phone and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zeng, I've been too busy these days, so I haven't had time to contact you .”

"Where is there?" Zeng Ruiming was a little cautious when he heard Zhou Tong being so polite. He said to Zhou Tong awkwardly: "I promised to help Mr. Zhou carve a turtle-shaped pottery. Originally, it would take about a week. Now this This matter may have to be postponed for a while."

"What's wrong?" Zhou Tong was taken aback by the unexpected turn of events, and asked, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Zeng?"

"It's my family's problem." Zeng Ruiming sighed sadly, "My grandma passed away."

Zhou Tong: "My condolences."

Birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable, Zhou Tong can understand, but Zeng Ruiming originally promised Zhou Tong to stay in J City for a few more days, and then go back after carving the turtle-shaped town. The old man goes to the funeral.

Zeng Ruiming's hometown is in City S, a real water town in the south of the Yangtze River. It is not an exaggeration to describe the girls there as being made of water. Even when they quarrel with others, they are soft-spoken and have no temper at all.The man is also very gentle, his masculine face is broken by the soft spring breeze, but like a willow branch, there is a tenacity in his bones.Everyone always has a smile on their faces, they are very humble and courteous to each other, and they are also very enthusiastic towards foreign tourists. Zhou Tong has been there several times with his tutor when he was a graduate student, and they are very impressive, and he has a good impression of S City.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to go to City S with Zeng Ruiming. On the one hand, he valued the treasure, and on the other hand, he wanted to relax.

Recently, life has been too tense, and he is busy from morning to night every day. No matter how little he is, he can't live like this. After discussing with Zeng Ruiming on the phone, Zhou Tong bought the same as Zeng Ruiming. The next day the plane flew to S city.

Ling Yuan was so happy with this little honeymoon trip, he and Zhou Tong soaked in the beautiful scenery of the Jiangnan water town every day, and spent a few days comfortably.

Zeng Ruiming's grandmother died at the age of [-]. It was a happy funeral, so the atmosphere in the Zeng family was not very sad, but Zeng Ruiming's parents had died long ago, and his uncle had no one in his generation, and his contemporaries were all girls. He is the oldest male, so his attendance at the funeral is indispensable, and he is also the protagonist.

Because it was a happy funeral, Zhou Tong was also invited by Zeng Ruiming to attend his grandmother's funeral. On the day of the funeral, the demeanor of everyone in the Zeng family was revealed. Every process was strictly in accordance with the traditional funeral process. "Buy water" , "Youcai", "funeral", "burning incense", "burial" and so on are all rigorous.

In the evening, it’s time to entertain the guests. Happy mourning is different from crying and mourning. The banquet is very large, and it often has the meaning of long life and happiness for the deceased. There is no taboo at the banquet. According to tradition, the theater troupe will be invited to sing a few happy and mourning songs. For the play, the Zeng family is everyone, every step will be done, and the dinner is even more grand.

As a relative and friend of Zeng Ruiming, Zhou Tong was seated in a relatively remote location.Zeng Ruiming was worried that other people didn't know Zhou Tong, so he neglected Zhou Tong, so he took Zhou Tong to the table and sat down. When the two walked halfway, Zeng Ruiming was stopped by someone to toast. He bowed and said, "Mrs. Zeng lived a long life and passed away peacefully. Mr. Zeng needn't be too sad."

Zeng Ruiming thanked him, drank the wine toasted by the man, and saw that there was a vacant seat on the table out of the corner of his eye, and the bowls and chopsticks on the table did not move, and asked, "How is Mr. Wu?"

"On behalf of my brother, I would like to thank Mr. Zeng for his concern. He is in better condition, but he is still weak and unable to attend. I hope Mr. Zeng will not be offended."

"Where is there, I hope Mr. Wu can recover soon, and I will definitely visit him when I have the opportunity in the future."

After the two were polite, Zeng Ruiming smiled embarrassedly at Zhou Tong, took Zhou Tong to his seat and sat down, said sorry and then went to deal with other guests. In a short while, seven or eight people came to Zeng Ruiming condolences.

Zhou Tong sat for a while, chatting and laughing with Ling Yuan while eating food, when suddenly someone asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Zhou Tong?"

Zhou Tong heard the words and looked, and saw that it was the young man who had been courteous to Zeng Ruiming before. Seeing that Zhou Tong had responded, the man heaved a sigh of relief, smiled a little shyly and said: "It really is Mr. I caught a glimpse of Mr. Zhou from a distance, and I was afraid of being abrupt."

"You don't need to be so polite, may I ask who you are?" Zhou Tong was sure that he had never seen this person before this time, how could he recognize himself?And if you say you have seen it from afar, where did you see it?

Wu Minzhi is used to speaking in a polite manner, and he can't let go of his actions when talking. He is as cautious as the old masters left over from the old society. I was a guest at the Chu family at that time, and I was fortunate enough to hear about Mr. Zhou helping the koi to jump over the dragon gate. I also met Mr. Zhou from a distance at the family banquet of the Chu family. It is a great fortune to get to know Mr. Zhou this time. .”

"So that's the case." Zhou Tong nodded clearly.

Wu Minzhi made some polite remarks to Zhou Tong again, hesitant to speak clearly, Zhou Tong knew that the children of these aristocratic families had some sort of awkward arrogance, some words were very embarrassing to say, so he asked straight to the point: " If Mr. Wu has something to say, just speak up."

When the purpose was revealed, Wu Minzhi smiled ashamedly, and said, "I'm ashamed, I'm really ashamed. I really need to ask Mr. Zhou for help."

"Please say."

"This matter has something to do with my brother." People on the left and right were looking at them, Wu Minzhi said, "Take a step to talk."

Zhou Tong nodded and stood up, Ling Yuan also stood up with him, Wu Min was stunned, looked at Zhou Tong and asked Zhou Tong's meaning with his eyes, playing a trick together, Zhou Tong deliberately said: "This is my wife .”

Ling Yuan: "..."

Wu Minzhi: "..."

Wu Minzhi blushed, and with the personality of the old master, he accepted the matter without much time, "Then let's come together."

When he reached a side hall, Wu Minzhi looked around and closed the door when he saw no one was there. He sat next to Zhou Tong and said with a sad face, "My elder brother is very ill. I went to the hospital for checkup but couldn't check it out." What happened, I just said it was due to Qi deficiency and weakness. I originally thought it was related to the curse of ghosts and gods, so I went to the Chu family to ask the Chu family to check, but they couldn't find out the cause. They all said that my elder brother is rich and long-lived. Bazi, let me not worry too much. But seeing my elder brother getting seriously ill day by day, I can’t do anything, can’t I just wait for my fate? I missed Mr. Zhou last time. When we meet again this time, please ask Mr. Zhou to help me Brother, let’s have a diagnosis and treatment.” He asked the Chu family to see it was invalid, and then tried to go to City A to ask Zhou Tong, but the store was closed, and Zhou Tong was not in City A at all during that time.

Zhou Tong could not guess his elder brother's problem just by listening to Wu Minzhi's description, so he said to Wu Minzhi: "I happen to have nothing to do recently, so let me go with you to check on your elder brother's condition, maybe it's really Qi deficiency. Are you weak?" He smiled to comfort the anxious Wu Minzhi.

After what Zhou Tong said, Wu Minzhi relaxed a little, and he nodded with a smile: "Then please trouble Mr. Zhou, I will go back and let the family prepare. When Mr. Zhou is free, I will send a car to pick you up." Unknowingly, Wu Minzhi spoke a little more naturally. There are no young people who talk like him in this day and age. Older people don't talk like that. This Wu Minzhi probably has strict family rules. The more nervous he is, the more he will The more you put those rules and regulations on yourself.

The tortoise-shaped vessel entrusted to Zeng Ruiming has to wait for his grandmother to pass her first seven before starting to carve. During this time, Zhou Tong should be free. Seeing Wu Minzhi's anxious expression, he said: "The dinner will end at about nine o'clock. If it is convenient for Mr. Wu at that time, I can help Mr. Wu take a look today."

Wu Min was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "That's great! Please trouble Mr. Zhou."

Back at the banquet, the stage was babbling and singing drama, Zhou Tong looked at the colorful stage and suddenly his eyes blurred, Ling Yuan supported Zhou Tong in time, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Zhou Tong shook his head, shaking off the messy colors in front of him, "I was dazzled for a while."

Opening his eyes again, Zhou Tong saw threads of different colors on the bodies of the people around him. Those lines were long or short, curved or straight, and they were all different. gone.

Ling Yuan's gaze fell on Zhou Tong's yin and yang eyes. He stroked Zhou Tong's eyes and said, "Your yin and yang eyes have changed."

"What?" Zhou Tong asked puzzledly. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, switched to the selfie interface, and observed the screen carefully. , and there is a little black hidden in the yang fish.

He suddenly remembered the record in the book: "The harmony of the heaven and the earth makes all things come into being, and the yin and yang change together."

His yin and yang eyes have evolved.

Zhou Tong was dumbfounded. It was said in the book that the yin and yang eyes can not only see ghosts and spirits, but also cut off the lifeblood of people. When it comes to life and death, the tiny silk threads he saw in the human body just now are the lifeblood of people ?

There is a lifeline hidden in every human body. A long lifeline means a long life, a short lifeline means a short lifespan, a tortuous lifeline means a rough life, and a straight lifeline means a smooth and safe life. These lifelines symbolize the changes in a lifetime.

Zhou Tong pursed his lips, not thinking it was a good thing.

He didn't want to have this kind of supernatural power. It was enough for an ordinary person to have a little or two gold fingers. This kind of power was not something his mortal body could afford.

After realizing this, he gave up the practice in that ancient book. Now it seems that Yin Yang eyes will evolve automatically.

Zhou Tong sighed silently.

After the dinner was over, Zhou Tong greeted Zeng Ruiming and followed Wu Minzhi to Wu's house.

These large households in City S live very close together. The Zeng family is only a few kilometers away from the Wu family's old house, and it takes only ten minutes to drive there.

Wu Minzhi respectfully invited Zhou Tong into the house.

The elders of Wu's family were not at home, and his elder brother was seriously ill. Now Wu Minzhi is the best at speaking. After entering the door, several juniors came to greet him. Wu Minzhi hurriedly responded, and took Zhou Tong up to the second floor.

Wu Minzhi's elder brother is named Wu Huanzhi, who was born in a scholarly family like the Wu family. He is a well-known literary master in the circle. He has published countless works of appreciation and commentary on history, with rave reviews and excellent reputation.

Entering Wu Minzhi's room, Zhou Tong was surprised by the amount of books in their room. Wu Huanzhi's room was very large, with simple furniture and few decorations. Most of the free space was filled with bookshelves, just like a small library. A row of bookshelves are filled with all kinds of books, arranged neatly by category.

When Zhou Tong saw this, he glanced at the first row of bookshelves. He thought they were all historical books, but he didn't expect that there were a few folk novels and a few horror novels on display, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Wu Minzhi said: "This is my eldest brother's hobby. He usually likes to read these novels to pass the time."

Zhou Tong nodded, and after looking again, many of the novels were written by the same person. He had also heard of the author named Mr. Mustard. He had bought a few of his books when he was in college. The knowledge of metaphysics is so exquisitely written that even a few of them can be used as Mr.'s textbooks.

Without thinking about it, Zhou Tong sat beside Wu Huanzhi's bed and carefully checked Wu Huanzhi's situation.

There was another pain in his eyes, Zhou Tong hissed, closed his eyes, and when he tentatively opened his eyes, he saw the lifeblood in Wu Huanzhi's body falling in front of his eyes, and the middle of the originally long and straight lifeblood was severely beaten. When a knot is tied, the front section is like an ordinary lifeblood, but the back is withered and eroded, shrinking into a small ball behind the knot.

Zhou Tong blurted out in surprise: "Looking at your brother's face, he should be rich and lucky. His life is going smoothly, his career is rising, and he is also the appearance of a long life. How could this lifeline be tied? Has he encountered anything recently?"

Wu Minzhi was completely stunned when he heard the words, not knowing what the situation was.
