The years of reselling the haunted house

I was taken aback, and hurriedly stood up from the bed, and said, "Grandma Yan, what are you doing?"

Granny Yan waved her hand: "I'm not begging you, but this bone relic. In fact, if you didn't have the relic on your body and broke into my Happy Valley last night, you wouldn't have gotten out alive. Although I Xiaoyao Valley resides here by itself, and no stranger has been able to find it. I will not let a stranger walk out of here alive."

"Are you a relic? But why do you worship this relic? Could it be that you..." I looked at Granny Yan and suddenly had an idea.At that time, Taoist priest Shimen only left the name Lingxuzi, so he asked me to look for it.But the world is so big, counting the time, this Lingxuzi should have passed away long ago.This makes me rely on a name, where to find it.So this is destined to be an unsolvable topic, and my heart has already given up on it.

Chapter 1271

Unexpectedly, today, Granny Yan actually knew the Dao bone relic, and even respected the relic very much. Could it be that she has something to do with that Lingxuzi?

Granny Yan glanced at me and said, "Since you are the heir of the Dao bone relic, then I will not hide it from you, I am the master of Lingxuzi."

"Taught by Lingxuzi?" I was taken aback for a moment, and asked hurriedly, "So, mother-in-law, are you really Lingxuzi's disciple?"

Granny Yan smiled wryly and said: "There is a long history. I don't know if the master recognizes me as a disciple. Anyway, I regard him as a teacher."

There is nowhere to look for, and it takes no effort to get it. I never thought that I was about to give up, and I found news about Lingxuzi here.After listening to Granny Yan's words, I hurriedly asked: "Then... where is Lingxuzi? I'm going to find him."

Granny Yan shook her head: "It was more than 50 years ago when I saw my mentor. Why don't I want to see my mentor again?"

"More than 50 years ago?" I turned my head around, glanced at Granny Yan, and said with a smile: "Grandma, we have something to talk about, can you stop joking?"

Granny Yan was stunned: "Are you kidding? Are you not kidding?"

I smiled wryly and said: "I once estimated in front of Taoist Master Shimen that if Lingxuzi could live to this day, he would be two hundred years old. If you said you saw him 50 years ago, he would have been 150 years old then. The Guinness Book of World Records' longest-lived person probably didn't live to be 150 years old, did he? Did you recognize the wrong person, isn't that person Lingxuzi?"

Granny Yan scolded: "Nonsense. Can I get this wrong? If I wasn't a master of Lingxu, how could I know your bone relic."

I nodded. At that time, Daoist Master Shimen did indeed say that as long as I still have the Dao bone relics on me, no matter where I go, as long as I am a cultivator of the Shimen Daoist lineage, I will feel the existence of the Dao bone relics and recognize the existence of the Dao bone relics. The origin of the bone relic.

"But, the age of Lingxu..."

Granny Yan snorted coldly: "It seems that you are also a cultivator, how can you not know the beauty of my Taoism. Among my Taoism, as long as you practice Taoism with peace of mind, plus chances and coincidences, long-lived people abound. Cultivators are indifferent Fame and fortune, what kind of records are you talking about? Why do we cultivators value them? When I saw my mentor, the old man did say that he was over fifteen years old."

After listening to Granny Yan's explanation, I actually don't care about the authenticity, I only care about when the relic between my eyebrows can be removed.

Although during this period of time, I didn't have any bad influence on me because of the existence of the Dao bone relic between my eyebrows.But I know that this thing is indeed a treasure in Taoism, after a period of dormancy in my body, it will definitely be coveted by some ghosts.Although I don't want to keep this bone relic, I can't give this relic to those ghosts and demons for nothing, otherwise they get the relic and may use it to do some vicious things against human nature.

Although it was Shimen Taoist priest who forced me to pass this relic to me, I was also entrusted by others to find Lingxuzi and return this thing as it was, which has also become a heart disease of mine.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this relic is a time bomb in my body.This was not only admitted by Daoist Shimen, but the third uncle also affirmed this statement later.

Now I finally found Lingxuzi's disciple, and she was able to take out this bone relic, which means that my trip was worthwhile, and it also means that I have lived up to the entrustment of Taoist Master Shimen.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly said: "Since Granny Yan is a disciple of Lingxu, she must know how to take out this bone relic. Although I didn't find Lingxu, but I did find Lingxu's disciple, I will pass on this relic to you. If it is given to you, it can be regarded as returning to the original owner.”

Granny Yan was taken aback when she heard this: "Return it to its original owner? You are thinking too simply. Do you know that once this bone relic is introduced into your body, it will be born between your eyebrows if you don't take it out for three days?" The root. The relic will take root in your brain. If you take it out improperly, the relic will take out the relic, and the relic will take your brain. Therefore, take out the relic, and you will die immediately.”

I was shocked when I heard this, and couldn't help asking: "Huh? No...it's impossible. Daoist Shimen...he didn't tell me about this..."

Granny Yan sneered and said: "If you don't believe it, I can try it for you, take it out and see if you can still live."

I shook my head quickly: "No, I won't bother you, this is unnecessary."

Granny Yan went on to say: "However, if this relic stays in your body, it will bring you great benefits. The relic root is also called the root of wisdom. The simplest benefits will make you gradually clearer, sharper in thinking, and more active in your brain..."

I smiled wryly and said, "It would be nice if these benefits could be reversed for a few years. Is my IQ on the line? It's okay to pass the college entrance examination at Tsinghua University and Peking University. Why bother to go to a second-rate university? After graduation, there will be nothing to do."

Granny Yan smiled and said: "Those are the most common and basic. This root of wisdom enters the body, of course, it is also reflected in the attributes of Taoism, which will make you have an epiphany about the problems encountered in cultivating the Tao. This bone relic is rare. You can’t ask for it, you have this opportunity, you should be thankful to heaven and earth. As for the benefits, I can’t say, I have to rely on you to explore and experience it slowly.”

I questioned: "So, mother-in-law, you don't want to take out this bone relic for me? You must have a way to take out the relic without hurting my life, right? You are also Lingxuzi's disciple after all."

Granny Yan shook her head and said: "It's not to do it, but I can't. I can't help you with my means. I just learned Taoism from my teacher for two years. If you really want to solve this relic matter completely, you can only do it." There are two ways, one is to find a mentor, and the other is to find a direct disciple of the mentor. I can only be regarded as his nominal disciple."

I smiled wryly and said, "Grandma, these two methods of yours are the same as if you didn't say anything. If I can find them, I don't need to beg you here."

Granny Yan said: "Otherwise. Since you can meet the old man, why can't you meet your mentor or senior brothers?"

I waved my hand: "To say something disrespectful, no matter how wonderful this Xuanmen is, your master can still live to be two hundred years old? I don't believe it anyway. Forget it, since this relic has so many benefits to me, I will I'm not in a hurry to get it out. This is your thing, and you are not in a hurry to go back, so why should I be in a hurry. "

Granny Yan said: "Then you have to pay attention in the future. Once the relic is formed, it will be fully formed within half a year. If some ghosts or people with ulterior motives find this relic, they will not consider taking it out. Will the relic kill you? Therefore, your relic is still an unstable factor in your body."

Chapter 1272

I nodded: "I've known this for a long time, since that's the case, let's let it go. It's my fate, so I don't have anything to say."

Granny Yan smiled and said: "This is the demeanor that a cultivator should have. In fact, it was the Patriarch of Shimen who passed on the relics to you, so he regards you as his successor. And I know my master Ling Xuzi, so I am in this sect. In the middle, you are still a generation higher than me, and you can be regarded as my teacher. Strictly speaking, I should pay homage to you..."

As she said that, Granny Yan really straightened her clothes and wanted to bow down to me.

I quickly supported her and said, "Mother-in-law, it's not formal between us, please don't make it so formal. Otherwise, we won't be able to talk."

Granny Yan smiled and nodded: "Okay, I hope I can see my teacher again in this life, and then I will ask him to recognize me as a disciple, and it will not be too late to offer you the gift of your teacher when I am old."

"Then why don't you look for it? What are you doing here in Happy Valley?" I asked curiously.

Granny Yan sighed: "It's too long to say a word."

When I heard it, this Granny Yan seemed to be a person with allusions.But things have developed so far, which has completely exceeded my expectations.It can be said that it is far from what we expected before.

My third uncle and I worked so hard to find this place. The third uncle was like facing a formidable enemy, saying that the owner here could control Yin and Yang, and he was a difficult opponent, so he came down first to explore the way.But who knew that he would never return, and I was worried about his safety and chased him down.But after coming down, not only did he not see the third uncle, but he and this Granny Yan got into the same family relationship.

If we knew this earlier, why should we go to such trouble.It is estimated that some of the answers we want to know should be found here at Granny Yan.But the problem is, the third uncle disappeared again at this time.

Now that Granny Yan and I had already established our relationship, I asked directly: "Grandma, is my third uncle really not here?"

Granny Yan nodded: "My Xiaoyao Valley, I have guarded here for decades. I know whether it is a stranger or a bird flying in. And the reason why you can come in is because of that tree. It’s about incense. I haven’t asked you yet, what kind of incense is that?”

"That is a reed incense."

"Lu Xiang... oh... I haven't been out for many years, and my old age is also ignorant. It turns out that holding Lu Xiang can avoid me from entering Xiaoyao Valley."

"Grandma Yan, you really haven't been out of Xiaoyao Valley for decades? Isn't this a bit too boring? And... are you acting in a palace drama for yourself? Why are you wearing such a suit?" I asked curiously.

Knowing from Granny Yan that the third uncle did not enter Xiaoyao Valley, my heart also relaxed.This unreliable third uncle actually let me go, thanks to the fact that I was so worried about him.I also thought, the sincerity shown by the third uncle this time, at least he took the danger himself.I didn't expect that I would be fooled. Thanks to being Lingxuzi's disciple, Granny Yan can feel my Dao bone relic.If I change my identity, then if I rush into Xiaoyao Valley rashly, will I be close to death?

However, I also believe that there must be a reason why the third uncle left halfway and did not enter this Happy Valley.Maybe he found more important clues and didn't have time to notify me.

So I'm in Happy Valley, and I'm not in a hurry to go out now. Based on the attitude that I'll be safe when I come, I decided to study this old smoked lady in front of me first.

Granny Yan nodded when she saw me asking, "I just said that all of this stems from the day I met Master Lingxuzi. The meeting between me and him was also due to fate. If there is no mentor, I am afraid that I will not be here." It has become a lonely ghost."

"Oh? What's going on?" Looking at Granny Yan in front of me, there are too many secrets to be solved on her body. I have a hunch that maybe I can learn about the soul of Chen Chenchen, Chen Jinhua's son, from her. whereabouts.After all, we tracked all the way here, and I believe in Uncle San's judgment.

If Granny Yan really lived in Happy Valley for so many years and never went outside, I guess those civet cats were accompanying her.Today, she saw someone like me who can talk, and she seemed to want to tell the secrets in her stomach all at once.

Granny Yan recalled it carefully, and then said to me: "I remember that I was about six or seven years old. I followed my parents into the mountains, and it was in this area. In fact, the environment here has not changed much from that time. , but there were fewer people around at that time, and the forests here were denser. Not long after I followed my parents into the mountain, I was separated from my parents. It was still winter and it was very cold. There were also many beasts screaming, I was terrified, and walked while crying..."

"How could your parents be so careless and lose you..."

Granny Yan sighed and said, "How could it be because of carelessness? I knew at the time that I might never see them again, because they brought me to this mountain just to get rid of me on purpose."

"Ah? Abandoning you on purpose? No way? They are so cruel, are they still your real parents?" I couldn't help saying in amazement.

Granny Yan shook her head: "It's been so long. I'm also a practitioner, and I don't hate them anymore. What's more, I understand them. They must have suffered at the time, and they had to do it as a last resort. You must know that time It’s different from now. At that time, it was a luxury to be able to eat enough, and one less person to eat could save a whole family.”

I said angrily: "Even if life is poor, you can't throw your own daughter into the mountains. What's the difference between this and beasts? It's also a way to send you to someone else's family."

Granny Yan waved her hand: "No, that's not the case. You don't know, since I was born, I have been different from ordinary children. My body is covered with a layer of white fluff. These fluff, as I get older, As they grow bigger, they grow more and more densely. Even if you cut them all off, they will grow again overnight. People in the village say that I am a disaster star, that I am a Youkai, you can say anything anyway. They said that staying with me would bring trouble to the village. It was in this situation that my parents thought of sending me to the mountains to fend for myself.”

I nodded: "In your case, you may be infected with a strange disease. Or it is a phenomenon of atavism. This phenomenon also happens occasionally today."

Chapter 1273 Smoking Control Technique

Granny Yan said: "My situation is different from what you said. And under the conditions at that time, no one would know so much. At that time, the amount of information was far less than that of modern society."

Hearing this, I asked curiously: "Grandma Yan, since you haven't been out for decades, do you know what's going on outside now?"

Granny Yan smiled: "I know what you mean, let me tell you, not only do I know the outside world, but I know no less than you. I have my own way of obtaining it. I am sitting in the Happy Valley, and the world's major events It's all under control."

I knew what Granny Yan said was true, so I nodded, motioning for her to continue talking about her rough life experience.

Granny Yan went on to say: "It was the middle of winter, and the weather here is very cold in winter. But the strange thing is that although the weather is cold, I am getting hotter and hotter, and my body is getting hotter and hotter. , I fainted before walking far, and when I woke up, I saw an old man with white hair and beard sitting in front of me. And I was lying on a bluestone."

"Is he Lingxuzi?"

Granny Yan nodded: "It's him. But when I saw him at the time, I thought of an immortal at first sight. Master, he is a fairy, and he is really similar to an immortal descending to earth. I only found out later that after I fainted, the situation It was very critical. Thanks to him, the old man happened to pass by here, so I was saved. It was also thanks to him, if it were someone else, it would not be able to save my life. Later, the master told me that I came down from the heavens and the stars, As a result, the yang energy in my body is too strong, so I grow "yang hair", that is, that kind of white hair. The more yin and cold places I encounter, the yang energy in my body will be stimulated to increase sharply. My body is carrying I can't help it. If he hadn't arrived in time, my body would probably explode because of the surge of yang energy in my body."

After I heard this, I also nodded: "I've heard of a method called "cutting the yang hair". It turns out that the yang hair refers to this."

Granny Yan praised: "You know a lot, and you know how to cut yang hair. That's right, that yang hair refers to this. Later, in order to save me, Master took me to stay in the deep mountain. You saw me clothes? This is also the way Master thought of to save me at that time."

"Wear Qing Palace costumes? What kind of solution is this?" I questioned.

Granny Yan smiled bitterly and said: "This is also a way to do nothing. Thanks to Master, I can think of this method that ordinary people can't think of. The yang energy in my body is overflowing, and I may break out at any time. Later, Master found a person in this mountain. In the tombs of the Qing Dynasty, it was found that there were many royal costumes buried in them. It may be that the deceased used to be a maid in the palace. Therefore, the master took out all these costumes and let me wear them. These clothes were buried for more than a hundred years, because of the relationship between Fengshui , It can still be kept intact. And I wear them, just to suppress the yang energy in my body. Now my condition has basically been relieved, but I am used to wearing these clothes, so I have been wearing them all the time."

"So that's how it is." I finally understood why Granny Yan, who lived in the deep mountains, had to wear Qing Dynasty court clothes, which was so nondescript. It turned out to be due to this reason.

Granny Yan said again: "Later, in order to completely cure the yang poison in my body..."

"Yang poison? I've only heard of insidious poison, so there's also such a thing as yang poison?"

Granny Yan nodded: "Of course, where there is yin, there is yang. Excessive yin qi can form yin poison, then excessive yang qi, naturally becomes yang poison. As long as the balance of yin and yang cannot be achieved in the body, yin and yang poison will be triggered sooner or later."

I nodded, I also agree with Granny Yan's statement, but I'm a little curious when I hear Yang Du's statement for the first time.

Granny Yan went on to say: "In order to heal the yang poison in my body, Master specially taught me the Taoism of controlling smoking with one hand."

"The way to control smoking?"

Granny Yan nodded, took the other kind of tobacco stick, and said, "This is also given to me by Master. This smoke stick is called Ziyun stick. I use this Ziyun stick to perform the smoke control technique."

When it comes to this, I am really ignorant. Among the Taoist schools in the world, there used to be many sects, and each sect has its own unique Taoism.But this is the first time I have heard about smoking control.If you smoke dry tobacco, can you still draw Taoism?

Seeing my suspicious eyes, Granny Yan smiled and explained: "Smoke control is an extremely high-end Taoism, but it is also an unpopular one. Among them, the cigarette pot is a very important magic weapon. The main Tao of smoke control is Using smoke as a medium to cast spells, this kind of Taoism is called tobacco control, which is naturally related to smoke. We will use special methods to cultivate tobacco leaves, and use special methods to make tobacco shreds, and then use different methods to extract the smoke, which can play different roles For example, yin and yang smoke, strange fragrance, can communicate with ghosts. Qingyun smoke, pungent, can distinguish ghosts and gods. Eye-opening smoke, moisturizes eyes, can open yin and yang eyes, etc. And the soul washing that I sprayed out last night Smoke can purify the soul in the body."

I was dumbfounded when I heard this, and couldn't help feeling that there are so many tricks in this seemingly simple puff of cigarettes.

Granny Yan squeezed out some shredded tobacco and said, "Have you seen these shredded tobacco? It looks ordinary, but in fact it has gone through many procedures. On the nights of the first and fifteenth day of every month, I have to prepare nine-two-nine in advance. Tobacco shreds of money, put them in three porcelain bowls, each bowl holds two or three coins, no more and no less. And you must use porcelain bowls, and you can’t use other things instead. Then put the three porcelain bowls in front of the altar , burn three sticks of incense every half an hour. After one month, the shredded tobacco can only be used on the first day of the next month. These things are easy to say, but Master taught me, and it took me two full years before I was able to use them. Xiaocheng."

In fact, I still can't understand most of what Granny Yan said.And the reason why Granny Yan told me this, I think she is not trying to teach me anything, nor is she showing off to me, she is just expressing her attitude, that is, she and I are of the same clan, she will not Hide anything from me.

I didn't expect such unexpected gains here, and I thought I had to get to the point quickly.After figuring out what's going on here, I have to find that old guy, Third Uncle, as soon as possible.

This old guy has been a little worried recently. When he was in action, he would play a game of disappearing from time to time, which would make people nervous every time.

But when Grandma Yan talked about these things, she followed her own way of thinking, and I was not very good at interrupting, so I could only let her continue.

Chapter 1274

Granny Yan continued: "The smoking control technique taught by my master can be used both offensively and defensively, and it is very effective for my own yang poison. After two years of learning, I choose suitable shredded tobacco and smoke dry tobacco. The poison is almost cleaned up. And the master has found this valley long ago, and named it Xiaoyao Valley. In the past two years, besides his own retreat and practice, he came out to arrange this valley. It has become a place where people and gods don’t know it, and ghosts don’t even notice it. The sun can gather yang, absorb the corpse’s qi from the surrounding corpses to replenish yin, and form an independent world of yin and yang balance. People can’t find it. Even ghosts can’t be found, real people are invisible, like a paradise.”

I nodded, what Grandma Yan said was completely in line with third uncle's deduction, so it can be seen that third uncle's judgment is quite accurate.

Granny Yan said again: "The things planted in the field outside are all raw materials for making tobacco leaves that my master taught me to plant. It is a rare crop called chickpea. It is said that the fruit of this crop It must be swallowed by eagles and then excreted by eagles. In this way, seeds can be spread everywhere in order to survive in a large area, so it is called chickpea. Of course this is just a legend, but this kind of crop is indeed very small in stock and easy to grow. Extinct. According to the master, the chickpea millet was passed down from the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it became extinct in the Tang Dynasty. Because this kind of crop is not easy to survive and has strict environmental requirements. But later the master said that the master, that is, the Taoist master Shimen, discovered this by accident. I planted the seeds of crops, and took some measures, figured out some of its planting methods, and passed them down as a unique technique. And Master passed it on to me, and the Xiaoyao Valley he arranged was actually for this kind of crops. To create an environment, at present this kind of thing can only grow in this piece of Happy Valley."

I sighed after hearing this, and couldn't help asking: "Mother-in-law, when you cook the sorghum-like things in the pot, are you boiling tobacco leaves?"

Granny Yan nodded and said: "That's right. That's also a special cooking method. It can boil the ripe fruit into tobacco paste, and after drying it, it will be the shredded tobacco you see."

"Grandmother, so to speak, this Xiaoyao Valley was arranged by Master Lingxuzi back then, and he also made the place where Yin and Yang are balanced here? Why did he make such a place?"

Granny Yan said: "That's right. Master created such a boundary to let me clean up here. Because after two years of life, he saw that I have a lot of connections and that my life is doomed to be rough. If In the outside world, it is easy to encounter disasters."

"So, you haven't been out of Happy Valley for decades?"

Granny Yan shook her head: "Actually, it's not that I haven't gone out once. I went out once 20 years ago. At the beginning, Master taught me here for two years, and then he was leaving here. I asked him to accept me as a beginner. , to be his disciple. But he didn’t agree right away. He just said that if there is fate in the future, the two of them will meet each other, and he will come back to me at that time. He also said that I should stay here as much as possible. After finishing speaking, he gave me He left behind some books and then drifted away. Those books were also written by him in the past two years. The reason why I insisted on staying here is because I thought that if Master came back one day, if I left, I would have no way to be with him. He met the old man. I have read all the books left by Master over the years, and I have learned seven or eight out of ten. I can also follow Master's practice in this Happy Valley, keeping it mysterious. It is still a man and a god. A place where ghosts don't know."

I asked again: "Then you said, you went out once 20 years ago, what did you do..."

Granny Yan said: "That's because I was meditating in the valley, and suddenly I had a whim. I figured it out and found that I could sense the existence of Master. It was a miraculous reaction, so I followed this perception and walked out. As a result, I almost failed to come back that time. From this, it can be seen that Master’s judgment on me was extremely accurate at the time, and since that time, I have rarely left the valley.”

"Almost didn't come back? Did something happen to you?"

Granny Yan waved her hand: "It's the past, so don't mention it."

I nodded: "Then can you tell me why there are so many corpses here? In addition, I am looking for the soul of a child. I wonder if he also fell here?"

Granny Yan said: "My Xiaoyao Valley is invisible to people and gods, which means that the soul cannot be found here, but there is one exception. In order to maintain the balance of yin and yang here, except that I have to pass through Fengshui environment, Qimen Dunjia needs to absorb the nearby corpses in addition to some arrangements. Fortunately, in this area, in the Qing Dynasty, it is said that there were bandits. The Qing army suppressed bandits many times, resulting in many ancient corpses buried here There is also a village called Yuantou Village, where there were also deaths, so the corpse energy stored here can still support Xiaoyao Valley for two years. And those who died violently, those who still have nostalgia for the world, are It cannot be reincarnated. After I attract his corpse energy, his soul will also be hooked. In this case, I will use the soul-inducing smoke to lure their souls into the valley. Ways to save them, and when their grievances dissipate, I will reincarnate them. So, you said that the child's soul may end up here with me."

After listening to Granny Yan's introduction, I realized that she was stationed in Happy Valley, not doing evil, but doing good.She can save those souls from reincarnation, which is an act of good deeds.

Granny Yan asked again: "There have been no less than a hundred people who have been reincarnated by me in the past few decades. I don't know if the person you mentioned is still here. Do you know his birth date?"

I shook my head, how would I know Chenchen's birth date.When I saw Chen Jinhua, I didn't even think about asking her.

Granny Yan muttered: "I don't know the date of birth, so it will take a lot of work to find it."

I sincerely said: "Mother-in-law, this matter is very important to me, I hope you can help me, no matter where he is, you must help me find him."

Granny Yan nodded: "Okay, I understand. I will definitely help you, but it will take a little time. During this time, you can walk in my valley. The environment here is very good, but don't go out of the valley. You go out, I'm afraid it will be difficult to come in again."
