Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes
Chapter 523 Money makes the devil work
The stone mill weighs hundreds of pounds and turns very slowly, making a very dull sound, as if it were being pushed by an invisible hand.
The crazy Taoist priest was shirtless and skinny. He walked to the millstone and said a bunch of incomprehensible words to the air. Then he put away the white jade sword and nodded repeatedly towards the front.
He suddenly waved at me.
I have been in this business for so many years and have seen a lot of rotten bones and coffins, so I am much braver than ordinary people.
But at this time I was really scared...I didn't dare to go over.
He waved at me again.
I walked over with fear and asked nervously, "Master, what's going on?"
He stroked his beard and said, "As the saying goes, money makes the devil work. If you have no money, you become the devil working on the mill. Don't be afraid. They are gone for now, but they will come back tomorrow night to capture your soul."
He went on to say, "The reason why the female lay Buddhist is unconscious is because one of her three souls has gone. The old Taoist has just called back her living soul and bribed the ghost to delay for a day. I only need to cure her stubborn illness within this day and then guide the three yang fires on her shoulders. Then the ghost will not be able to take her away when he comes again tomorrow, and she can be brought back to life in this way."
If there were outsiders present, they might laugh when they heard what he said, but I couldn't laugh at all. On the contrary, I asked solemnly, "Master, just tell me. What do you need me to do? Do you want me to prepare a cart of paper money?"
He shook his head: "No, no, now even if a cart of paper money arrives in the underworld, it can only be exchanged for three catties and eight taels of ghost-head garlic, so the black-faced ghost messenger asked the old Taoist for ten clever golden boys, and the white-faced ghost messenger asked the old Taoist for ten beautiful jade girls. When they return to the underworld, they can use ten boys and ten girls to exchange for twenty-three catties of ghost-head garlic."
I asked in confusion, "You want a paper figurine? What is a ghost garlic?"
He looked at me and said, "You don't see the Yin figure when you are alive, but you will know what it is when you die."
He wouldn't tell me, so I'm just guessing.
Maybe it's the currency of that world? What does the ghost garlic look like?
Because the paper money and things burned nowadays are a mess, with all kinds of things, many of which are crudely made by small workshops. Maybe there is a set of exchange rules? All the paper money burned is first exchanged for ghost garlic according to the rules, and then used to buy other things.
The crazy Taoist priest is speaking clearly now, so I think he has sobered up after being caught in the rain.
"Master, can you let me take a look at your sword?"
He stroked the sword gently and handed it to me.
As soon as I held it, I felt it was very heavy, which shows that the internal density is high and the jade quality is excellent. The sword is estimated to be more than 50 centimeters long. It must be hollowed out from a large piece of top-quality white jade. Three years ago, when I touched this sword for the first time in the experimental field, I felt it was unusual. I didn’t expect it to be "wood wrapped in jade".
Wood has almost no ductility. I have seen too many cultural relics with this kind of wood-wrapped jade craft, but I don’t know how this kind of wood-wrapped jade craft was created.
The Seven-Star Sword refers to a sword inlaid with seven copper nails. It was mainly popular during the Ming and Qing Dynasties and could be seen quite a lot among the people. The seven copper nails were made by the method of digging and pouring copper. However, I have never seen this kind of jade sword before, let alone embedding copper nails in jade. I don’t know how this lost craft was done.
Putting aside the origin and background of this magic sword, just looking at its material, age and craftsmanship, I think it is worth at least several million. If the crazy Taoist priest is willing to sell it for three million, I will definitely pay for it without saying a word, but he will definitely not sell it, and I dare not say I want to buy it.
Reluctantly, he returned the jade sword to him, then he collected the clothes covering the door and pushed it open and went in.
There was no light in the room. In the faint moonlight, I saw Shi Wuchang lying motionless at the head of the bed, as if he was asleep. He was holding Liu Chuanyu's hand tightly, and the tears on his face had not yet dried.
No wonder he didn’t come out to check out the noise in the yard. How could he have fallen asleep?
"Shit brother? Shit brother?"
I called him several times but couldn't wake him up.
Then I shook him hard, but he still didn't wake up.
Seeing this, the crazy Taoist priest stepped forward and put his hand on Shit Wuchang's head and patted it gently, saying, "You are such a fool. The once-in-a-century Tongtian Dao Body can't defeat the word love in the secular world. Wake up quickly."
The next second, Shit Wuchang slowly opened his eyes.
He was a little flustered and wondered why he fell asleep at this critical moment.
I said you might be suffering from the aftereffects of that battle, plus you've been too tired these past two days.
"Yuyu!"
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Liu Chuanyu, who was lying on the bed, was still breathing.
The crazy Taoist priest looked at him and shook his head: "You may have forgotten that tonight is Gengshen."
Shit Wuchang looked haggard, and suddenly realized, "No wonder... I was wondering why I fell asleep. How could I forget such an important date? Tonight is the Gengshen Day, and I should observe the Gengshen Day."
"Take off her clothes."
"What did you say?"
"The Taoist priest said, take off all her clothes."
Seeing that Shit Wuchang was still dazed and hadn't reacted yet, I said anxiously, "Get out of the way! I'll take it off!"
"Fuck off!"
He pushed me away.
"How can I let you see Yuyu's body? Get out!"
"I'm not going out!"
"Maybe I can help here! It's already this hour! And you're still concerned about this! Besides, it's not like I haven't seen it before!"
"What did you say!"
He grabbed me by the collar and asked sternly, "When did you read this, you little brat!"
I said without any fear: "The most important thing now is to cure the disease! Do I need to report to you? Why do you care when I saw it? Anyway, it was earlier than you!"
"Believe it or not, I'll slap you to death!"
"You shoot! Shoot here!"
I lowered my head and leaned forward and spoke loudly.

I don't know where he got so angry! I don't know where I got so angry, but we had a quarrel over taking off clothes.
I'm not trying to piss him off. I'm telling the truth. I did see it, so what?
I've seen both of them! I've even had sex with them, so what?
Should I die as an atonement?
Do I admit that the two sisters wanted to use me to practice martial arts? I did have some thoughts and ideas, but Shit Wuchang hadn't come to Qiandao Lake at that time! Now I dare to swear to heaven! I don't have those thoughts anymore!
"If you two are arguing, I won't care."
Shit Wuchang immediately let me go and said, "Master, don't be angry! I'll do as you say!"
After a while, Liu Chuanyu's clothes were taken off, and Shi Wuchang helped him sit up as requested.
The crazy Taoist priest had no expression on his face. He stretched out his hand and pressed her back a few times, then said, "The sea of qi is damaged, and the heart meridian is damaged. It is indeed difficult. Even if I cure her, she will not be able to practice martial arts in the future."
Shit Wuchang said anxiously: "She doesn't need to practice martial arts in the future! The Taoist priest just needs to heal her."
"Okay, I need one more thing."
"What else do you need, Taoist priest?"
"Just tell me, I'll have someone deliver it right away!"
The crazy Taoist priest said calmly, "I need another pot of wine. I need the purest and most yang wine in the world. I need to use that wine as a fire starter to open the sword finger. Then I can use the sword finger to correct its deviation and use the power of the medicine to penetrate the Qi sea in the female laywoman's body."
Shit Wuchang made a phone call immediately. In the middle of the night, three people had to admire the Changchun Association's strong efficiency. In more than an hour, someone delivered three large boxes.
The box was filled with medicinal wine. Shit Wuchang pointed at it and said, "Master, I prepared it according to your request. Which bottle do you think I should use?"
I glanced around and saw so many varieties. In addition to the common blood wine, whip wine, ginseng wine, etc., there were even real tiger bone wine and leopard bone wine.
The crazy Taoist priest looked at them one by one, and even unscrewed the lid of some of them and took a sip. He smacked his lips as he drank, "No, no, it's as bland as clear soup, it's far from good."
Shit Wuchang's face changed, and he immediately said, "Almost all the medicinal liquors that can be found in the world are here, Taoist priest, do you want to take a closer look?"
The crazy Taoist priest glanced at the unconscious Liu Chuanyu and shook his head, saying, "If you can't find the wine I want before dawn, then I can't do anything."
Shit Wuchang immediately got angry and made another phone call, asking the people from Changchun Society to find someone else immediately.
I thought about it, looked at him and said, "Brother Shit, I have a bottle of medicinal wine that someone gave me before, I wonder if it can be used?"
