Part 2 Retribution Chapter 53 Three Ghosts and Immortals


Regarding the haunting of Baoqing Mansion, He Yongwan didn't care at first, thinking that it was just a rumor about three people becoming a tiger.

Later, the trouble became too fierce.

Although at first there was only movement around the old prison site, but after After several gentlemen performed this method, not only did their symptoms not decrease, but they actually spread.

The common people didn't understand anything.

As soon as this incident came out, no matter whose family died, everyone would be implicated in this incident.

Even the consumption of a man who had been ill for more than ten years died of a normal illness, which was the result of the evil spirit of Chen's family.

The so-called people's words are scary.

As the rumors become more and more intense, some people have even begun to move their families away.

It was only then that He Yongwan realized the seriousness of the situation.

The past was not like now.

In ancient times, people were precious.

Soldiers were needed to fight wars, and workers were needed to collect food.

No matter what industry it was in, the "labor force" dominated by people was the core force in creating social wealth.

When the people left, the land Who is doing business?

In fact, He Yongwan also knows that the most important thing right now is to find a way to reassure the people.

Regardless of whether the ghosts are eliminated or not, the people must be reassured.

The people believe that the ghosts have been subdued.

Otherwise, if people continue to move out, won't Baoqing become a deserted city?

But at this time, Baoqing's Tongyun Temple has not yet been built, and there are only a few so-called "gentlemen" in the city who know something.

It's a matter of doing something wrong, but at this time, these drunken gentlemen have already done something about this matter.

They said it was useless and ran away.

Who can believe their words?

While he was thinking about it, a master named Lu recommended such a person to He Yongwan.

There is a Ganxu Temple in Langshan, a hundred miles away from Baoqing.

The presiding officer is the Three Ghost Immortal.

Even people in Baoqing Mansion talk about this Mr.

Three Ghosts with great enthusiasm.

However, in recent years, they have been in seclusion to thank guests.

No matter how rich and powerful the people who seek fortune-telling are, they are always received by a young Taoist priest who claims to be his disciple.

He says that the master has told him that from now on, only one person will be seen and the rest will not be seen.

But what exactly is this person?

No one would reveal it.

Even so, the Ganxu Temple is still very popular, and all matters big and small within a radius of a hundred miles can be solved as long as this little apprentice takes action.

As a result, these three ghost immortals became more and more legendary.

Even if the apprentice is so powerful, the master may not be invincible.

In fact, Mr.

Lu has a very thorough understanding of this matter.

He has tried to find several gentlemen to try to solve the problem, but to no avail.

The yamen has long lost its prestige among the people.

For this matter, he only invited the powerful apprentice of Sangui Xianren.

I'm afraid that's not enough.

If we can find a way to persuade the legendary Three Ghost Immortals to come out in person, not only can we stop people from continuing to move out, but people who have moved away before may even be able to move back.

Although He Yongwan is a foreigner, he has heard about this Three Ghost Immortal.

Not long ago, I heard Master Futai said that there was such an old Taoist.

After his father-in-law passed away, he didn't even give him face when he wanted to invite him to come out of the mountain.

Instead, he sent his apprentice. , listening to Master Lu’s words at this moment, He Yongwan began to feel unsure.

He didn’t even give Mr.

Futai face, so how could I, a small seventh-grade county magistrate, fall into his eyes?

After preparing a lot of snacks and cloths, He Yongwan bit the bullet and came to Ganxu Temple.

What He Yongwan didn't expect was that a young Taoist priest seemed to know that he was coming and had already done it before he could say anything.

He made a "please" gesture and said, "Master has been waiting for a long time."

Arriving at the inner courtyard of Ganxu Temple, the young Taoist priest took He Yongwan into a firewood shed, cleared away the mess of firewood, and the two entered a secret passage.

It is said to be a secret passage, but in fact Ganxu Temple is built against a mountain.

This so-called secret passage actually leads to a cave.

Facing the biting cold air on the other side, He Yongwan couldn't help but start to think wildly.

They said that the Taoist monks are good at retreat.

Could it be that they were eating, drinking and having sex in such a dark place?

He was halfway walking when he suddenly realized that the young Taoist priest just now had disappeared.

Facing him was a stone door.

After opening the stone door, he saw a skinny Taoist priest sitting with his back to the door.

"Senior Three Ghost Immortals are here, student He Yongwan is polite."

Seeing that the old Taoist was silent, He Yongwan quickly saluted.

At this moment, the old Taoist stood up and turned around and smiled slightly.

It didn't matter if he turned around.

He Yongwan's eyes almost fell out.

What kind of "old Taoist" was this?

It was obviously a "little Taoist".

He looked younger than the so-called apprentice just now.

How did he become such a miraculous Three Ghost Immortal?

Seeing He Yongwan's surprise, the little Taoist also smiled and said that he was not a "Three Ghost Immortal" at all.

The real Three Ghost Immortal had already transformed into an immortal three years ago.

The reason why he had been refusing to see anyone was Just waiting to meet my benefactor today.

Hearing what the little Taoist priest said, He Yongwan was even more confused and quickly asked where the favor was.

It turned out that the little Taoist priest was none other than Chen Qiaoer's son Wang Ji.

It turns out that although Wang Ji is young, his brain is faster than that of ordinary adults.

When Zhang Xiang sentenced Chen Qiaoer to death for the second time, although Wang Ji could not guess who the real murderer was, his parents suffered the same fate.

In the catastrophe, Wang Ji felt that if he continued to stay at home, he would not be able to escape this disaster. , so he stole several hundred taels of silver and wanted to settle down with his godfather in Henan.

However, he was encountered by thieves before leaving the province.

Later, not only was the carriage he hired was robbed, but all his travel expenses were also robbed.

In the end, he passed out due to cold and hunger.

He died on the roadside, and when he woke up, he was already in Ganxu Temple.

At that time, Gan Xuguan's host, the Three Ghost Immortals, had not yet become immortals.

He was even more horrified when he heard what happened to Wang Ji.

He quickly sent an apprentice to escort Wang Ji back to Baoqing, hoping that Wang Ji could make every effort to persuade his mother not to be on death row.

He was found guilty in prison, but when Wang Ji arrived in Baoqing, he found out that his mother had been buried.

Knowing that Chen Qiaoer was already on death row, the Three Ghosts Immortal could not help but look up to the sky and sigh, even praying for God's will, but he refused to tell the reason until one day when his life was approaching, he called Wang Ji to his side and told him.

The whole story.

It turned out that these three ghost immortals were also named Wang, and were called Wang Xiande.

They were from Baoqing.

When they were young, they were ordered by their masters to perform ancestor worship services at the home of the then county grandpa.

Because they accidentally knocked over the ancestral tablets of the county grandpa, he was also arrested.

I was imprisoned in the county government prison.

Because the county government prison was not big, the death row was together with other cells.

It was also rumored to be haunted at the time, but even the prison chief joked about it.

That time when he entered the prison, Wang Xiande saw that something was wrong with the death row.

Later, he heard from the cell leader that among the dozens of death row inmates sentenced by previous county magistrates, there were a total of seven who had been wronged before their death and committed suicide in prison.

See It looked like there was real grievance.

After being released from prison, Wang Xiande wandered around Baoqing for seven days and finally drew a detailed topographic map of the entire Baoqing Mansion.

As expected, the death row in this Yamen was the most unbiased place in the entire Baoqing Mansion.

Weak and Yin Qi is the strongest point.

Such a point is called the "eye of the earth" in Taoist doctrines such as Maoshan Shu, Qingwei Sect, Zhongge Sect, Sutu Sect, etc.

It is found in every city.

If someone happens to die unjustly at such a point, he will definitely became a serious problem, the reason why it was until Nothing has happened now, just because the county government itself is also a place of evil spirits, and evil spirits are used to suppress resentments, so it is peaceful.

However, this kind of peace is not endless.

Taoism has a saying: "Ten good deeds will make you an immortal, and ten resentments will make you an immortal."

"demon" , meaning that "a good person in ten lives can become a god, and a grudge in ten lives can become a monster."

And for people who died unjustly in prison, each person is equivalent to one life, that is to say, they exist at the same time.

Ten unjust deaths A cell filled with ghosts and grievances, with the help of the shadow of the "earth eye", will cause catastrophe.

Even the evil spirit of the Yamen cannot suppress it.

At this time, seven people in this death row have complained about injustice.

It seems that this treasure It won't be long before the Qing catastrophe comes.

Later, Wang Xiande told his master Fushizi about his discovery.

This news was taken seriously by Fushizi.

He once led Wang Xiande to suggest to the county magistrate that the cells should be demolished.

However, at this time, the confused magistrate Liu Tong had just taken office.

Unable to argue with each other, they sent the master and the apprentice to be kicked out of the county government office, and threatened that if they dared to confuse the public with their evil words again, they would be punished.

When encountering such an unreasonable official, the master and the apprentice could only accept their bad luck.

After taking over the position of host, Wang Xiande took the title Three Ghost Immortal to remind himself that his time was short.

After that, he traveled to famous mountains and rivers, and even met the founder of Quanzhen, Chongyangzi, but he was never able to get a glimpse of the "Eye of the Earth".

A good way to "The Demon of Ten Resentments".

At this time, the confused county magistrate Liu Tong had already unjustly killed two more people in addition to the original seven.

With his level of confusion, it would only take a few years for another person to be unjustly killed.

At this moment, a piece of news came from Hubei that made the nearly 60-year-old Sangui Immortal burst into laughter: Two tomb robbers in Xiangyang dug up an exquisitely made jade incense burner, which was later seized by the government, but this jade incense burner No one could recognize the words written on it, because Zhao Yu, the king of Xiangyang at that time, wanted this incense burner, but he couldn't understand the words on it, so he posted a yellow list and paid a lot of money to search for capable people, hoping that someone could recognize these ancient texts.

At that time, Sangui Immortal came to Xiangyang alone without saying a word, and found that the ancient inscriptions described on the list were death inscriptions, and the events recorded were about Shuang Huaizi's transformation into an immortal by refining Qiu.

According to the records of the incense burner, after Shuanghuaizi became an immortal, he still took the elixir every month, and found a cave in the remaining veins of Bashan Mountain near Xiangyang, which was named "Shuanghuaizhan Immortal Cave".

He lived 450 years to go to immortality. .

It is also clearly pointed out that after becoming an immortal, you can have such abilities as clairvoyance and ears for the wind.

You can also fly over eaves and walk over walls.

You are not bound by the laws of heaven, you are aloof from the world, and you can even play with monsters and resentments in the palm of your hand.

Even if these three ghost immortals knew why no one was willing to translate, if Zhao Yu didn't believe what was written, the translator would be beaten up or even beheaded; if Zhao Yu believed it, the translator would be sent to supervise the search.

Qiu Jie made elixir for him.

Everyone in the know knows that if someone who doesn’t understand the mind takes Taoist elixirs, the effect is no different from drinking pesticides directly.

There is no chance of heavy metal poisoning, not to mention that it is still an elixir refined by Qiu Chu.

If Zhao Yu is poisoned and dies.

Got it Even if he is disabled by poison, he will still be beheaded as a "supervisor".

This kind of slut will be provoked no matter whether the translation is correct or not.

Even if there are a few capable people in the country who understand death texts, who would be willing to do it for thousands of dollars?

Two pieces of silver are enough to get into this trouble The Three Ghosts and Immortals did not take these nonsensical records of clairvoyance and ears to the wind seriously.

People in ancient times tended to exaggerate everything.

It is possible that if your eyesight and hearing were a little better, you would become clairvoyant and have ears to the wind.

If you ran faster, you would be like flying over the wall.

Instead, the last sentence was "More "But the play about demons and resentments in Guzhang" aroused his interest.

To be honest, the Three Ghosts Immortal didn't want to interfere with this nosy business at first, but wasn't he named Sangui just to take care of Baoqing's busywork one day?

If there is such a thing, then what about Baoqing's "Demon of Ten Resentments"?

It was not a piece of cake, so the three ghost immortals tentatively revealed the list, saying they could only give it a try.

Of course, even if you try, you have to risk your life.

Zhao Yu was famous for his explosive temper at that time.

He couldn't translate it after revealing the list.

What else could it be if he wasn't seeking death?

It seems that the Sangui Immortal should have a good life.

On the day of the announcement, Zhao Yu's wife just happened to give birth to a son.

Zhao Yu was in a very good mood.

After inviting the Sangui Immortal to his house, he first gave birth to his son.

Once the order is given, the person is asked to pray for blessings.

These Three Ghost Immortals are also good at troubles.

They flattered Zhao Yu so much that he couldn't even find him.

Later, when it came time to translate the ancient text, the Three Ghost Immortals couldn't help but be stunned.

No wonder even the King of Xiangyang fell in love with this person.

What a thing: I saw that the carving of this incense burner was indeed beautiful and ingenious, and the jade was inlaid with gold threads.

The craftsmanship alone was enough to be astonishing, not to mention the flawless quality of the jade itself.

The entire incense burner is surrounded by clusters of "patterns that spread prophecies and increase longevity".

To others, this pattern looks like some decoration, but in the eyes of the Three Ghost Immortals, this pattern is an out-and-out pattern found only on elixirs.

After tracing out all the commemorative inscriptions and prophecies about longevity on the incense burner, Sangui Immortal secretly memorized the structure of the incense burner, and then confessed that he couldn't translate it.

I heard that the old Taoist didn't understand it either, Zhao Yu said.

At first, I was a little disappointed.

Normally, I would at least be taken out and beaten to a semi-disabled state, but at this time, At this moment, the disappointment cannot stop the joy.

A broken incense burner is just a bird.

I gave birth to a son today.

In the end, not only were the three ghost immortals not punished, they were rewarded with five hundred taels of silver.

They also had the pictures and texts on the incense burner scratched.

Considering the structure of the incense burner, in current terms, this is definitely a super example of shit luck.

After leaving the Prince of Xiangyang's Mansion, the Three Ghost Immortals couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

It turned out that the so-called "censer" was not an incense burner at all, but an "alchemy furnace" specially invented by Shuang Huaizi himself for refining Qiu Dan.

All the alchemy methods were recorded in the incense burner.

Because the words are relatively dense, they are not written on the list.

The only uncertainty is whether today's jade craftsmen have restored the craftsmanship of the incense burner according to their own memories.

After returning to Baoqing, Sangui Immortal also visited several jade craftsmen.

After listening to Sangui Immortal's description, the jade craftsmen shook their heads like rattles, saying that this was an "impossible task."

Later, Sangui Immortal visited Kaifeng in order to restore the alchemy furnace.

According to the analysis of Kaifeng's top jade craftsmen, it is possible to build such a gold-inlaid incense burner with today's craftsmanship, but the prerequisite is to find a piece larger than the size of the incense burner.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

A piece of jade, such a large piece of jade, with a reasonable quality, would cost at least about 5,000 taels of silver to be tattooed based on the market conditions at that time, and it must be found at the top.

The top-notch jade craftsmen carefully carve it.

Even if there is no text, it will take more than a year and a half, and the craftsmanship fee will be at least 1,500 taels.

Because the incense burner is divided into three layers, each layer is independent, and only A "jade ring" is connected.

With such a structure, even if one part of the carving is damaged, the entire jade may be ruined.

Therefore, if you want to carve such an incense burner, the owner will have to bear the risk of the jade being ruined.

In fact, there is no need to talk about the risk.

The jade money and craft fee alone are enough for the Three Ghost Immortals to drink a pot, 6,500 taels, and sell their kidneys.

Later, these three ghost immortals stopped working and planned to make this alchemy furnace by themselves.

According to Taoist theory, jade is of course the best, but if you don't pay too much attention to it, using white marble to carve this alchemy furnace should have the same effect as the real one.

The jade is almost the same.

So Sangui Immortal found a piece of white marble, but he was worried that the craftsmanship was too complicated.

Later, an apprentice accidentally broke the eating bowl and glued it with egg white to continue using it.

This reminded Sangui Immortal, Shuang Huaizi That jade elixir furnace is hollow Yes, if you want to carve it directly, it would take a lot of effort, but if you cut the stone to carve it, and then glue it back after carving, wouldn't it be much simpler?

We are not as particular as Shuang Huaizi, so why should we inlay it with gold?

Line, in fact, the function of that line is to block Yin and Yang, iron wire is enough.

Thinking of this, Sangui Immortal couldn't help but sigh at his genius: jasper was changed to white marble, hollow carving was changed to cut carving, and gold wire was changed to iron wire, which saved both cost and trouble.

At this moment, Sangui Zhenren's only hope is for Sanqing to bless that confused sensual person and stop him from unjustly dying while he is carving the pill furnace.

"So he imitated an alchemy furnace."

He Yongwan was fascinated by what he heard, "Didn't he say he could live for more than four hundred years?

Then why did he die?

And what is that Qiuji you are talking about?"

"Master passed away before he finished the alchemy furnace," Wang Jidao said.

"The so-called Qiu Qi is this."

After that, Wang Ji opened the iron box next to him and saw a small white snake coiled inside, because the temperature in the cave was relatively warm.

Low, it must be hibernating.

"I carved the alchemy furnace.

My master said that you would come to me in April this year, so he asked me to carve the alchemy furnace before April, but I was a few days late, but ten days is enough."

Wang Jidao, "Now The disaster happened because of my parents, so the master hopes that I will fulfill his last wish on his behalf."

"Then you" He Yongwan didn't seem to trust the young man in front of him very much.

"What I want to do, the master had already written before he died."

After saying this, Wang Ji took out a reel of silk from his arms, "The master's name originated from Baoqing's unjust imprisonment, and my life should also be attributed to Baoqing."

I am unjustly imprisoned, I am willing to go out in the name of master, and I will go to see Sir He in half a month.

However, during this half month, Sir needs to help me do something."

"The sooner the better, the sooner the better."

Although He Yongwan didn't understand what Wang Ji wanted to say, he still agreed happily, "If you have anything to do, please tell me directly."

"Help me prepare three iron coffins, just pig iron."

"This" He Yongwan seemed a little hesitant, but still agreed.

In fact, there were some treacherous words.

Due to He Yongwan's status as a court official, Wang Ji did not say it clearly.

Even before his death, Master Sangui Xianren had already concluded that the fate of the Song Dynasty was in decline.

In less than a hundred years, war disasters would continue in the north. , when the time comes, a large number of victims will surely flee to the south of the Yangtze River.

If Baoqing does not eliminate this disaster, innocent people will be affected.

The reason why Wang Ji agreed to take the risk to get rid of the "Ten Resentful Demons" for his master was not only because of his family background, but also because of this factor.

To be honest, He Yongwan was dubious about Wang Ji's words.

Those old men and half-immortals in their seventies and eighties all packed up and ran away.

The baby in front of him looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old.

Even if he had been a disciple since he was born, It’s only been more than ten years since I learned it.

Besides, I heard him say it himself.

A man who has become a monk has just stayed in Ganxu for three years.

Even if he doesn't sleep or eat, how much can he learn?

But then again, when faced with the people moving out in gangs, He Yongwan has no other way.

Inviting the Three Ghost Immortals to come out is just a pretense to stabilize people's hearts.

It doesn't matter whether he is the genuine Three Ghost Immortals.

For casting three iron coffins, fifteen days was indeed a little short, and blacksmith Liu, who was the best and fastest at work, had already died.

He Yongwan had no choice but to go to Changsha County to order the iron coffin.

The blacksmith was also puzzled.

After so many years of working in the industry, he had never heard of anyone using pig iron to make coffins.

He didn't know how to charge.

After some bargaining, He Yongwan negotiated with three large blacksmiths in Changsha, Loudi and Xiangtan.

Each shop is responsible for one iron coffin.

The price is tentatively set at 350 taels, and they work day and night.

Just when the coffin was cast and was being transported to Baoqing, Wang Ji came to He Yongwan's residence as promised:
