Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

The rest of the journey was uneventful until we reached the provincial capital. The Ghost Festival was just a few days away, and there were many roadside stalls selling paper money.

At this time, Lu Li saw a stall filled with various copper coins, there were thousands of them.

When I got to the stall, I found that there were red copper Yongzheng Tong Bao coins on it. The number of Yongzheng Tong Bao coins was not much compared with the other four emperors. I roughly counted them and there were at least dozens of them. There were also some from the Shunzhi, Kangxi, Qianlong and Jiaqing periods, enough to make two small Five Emperors' Gold and Silver Swords.

Seeing Lu Li standing in front of the stall observing, the stall owner said: "Don't worry, these are real copper coins. They were dug out from our fields a few days ago. Although they are not worth much."

Lu Li picked out more than 300 intact small Five Emperors coins and bought them. This time he had a gift for Uncle Jiu.

Uncle Jiu’s Golden Money Sword is not made of the Five Emperors’ coins, so its power is limited.

Lu Li did not make the Money Sword after returning to the inn. There are some requirements for making the Money Sword. It is best to make it on the eighth day of the eighth month of the fifth year or the Sanyuan Day, and 108 copper coins are needed.

The eight solar terms are the Beginning of Spring, Vernal Equinox, Beginning of Summer, Summer Solstice, Beginning of Autumn, Autumnal Equinox, Beginning of Winter, and Winter Solstice.

The Three Yuan Days refer to the 15th day of the first lunar month as the Shang Yuan, when the Heavenly Official is in charge of the inspection, and the 15th day of the seventh lunar month as the Zhong Yuan, when the Earthly Official is in charge of the inspection.

October 15th is the Lower Yuan period, and it is the day when the Water Official conducts inspections.

Only copper coins woven in this way can be called magic tools, while other copper coins woven randomly can only be used to ward off evil spirits.

Moreover, I personally do not recommend hanging a copper coin sword in your home. After all, a sword is a sharp weapon and has evil spirits. If you don’t know how to place it, it may be bad for your family’s health.

Noon the next day.

Lu Li used the copper coins and red ropes he bought to soak them in cinnabar and began to weave the Golden Money Sword.

After the two swords were woven, Lu Li used his magic power to illuminate them, and then two golden copper coin swords were placed on the table, pointing at each other.

With a "whoosh" sound, two golden swords stabbed in the direction of the finger.

Lu Li didn't have high expectations for the Golden Money Sword, but now he feels that the Golden Money Sword is worthy of being one of the main magical weapons of Taoism. It is lightweight and can be controlled freely with just the sword finger. As long as the magic power is strong, it can even pierce freely within a hundred meters.

His own Lightning Sword does not have this ability. After all, Maoshan does not have the magic formula of flying swords.

I am not a Yuanying-stage powerful person who can ride on a flying sword, so the Golden Money Sword becomes the first choice of Taoist priests.

Seeing that it was already evening, Lu Li had no choice but to rest in the inn for a day.

The Ghost Festival is coming in a few days, and the underworld will be open. I don’t know how many wandering ghosts I will meet on my way now, although I’m not afraid.

However, it would also be troublesome to let the underworld misunderstand that you are hunting down the ghosts of the underworld at will.

The next morning, Lu Li set out on his journey. During the journey, he passed by Zhe Gu's Jishan Hall and went to take a look.

After two or three years of separation, Zhe Gu was still as lively as ever and gave her the gift that he bought for her.

After receiving the gift, Zhe Gu smiled widely and asked Lu Li about Uncle Jiu.

Lu Li quickly said that he had been traveling for almost a year and had not been back to get away from it.

After leaving Jishan Hall, Lu Li wiped off the non-existent sweat and muttered to himself, "Women are indeed the biggest enemy of cultivation."

After thinking about it, there is still some time before the Ghost Festival, so why not go to Longjia Village to see Awei.

Longjia Village is the village where Awei is now, not far from Zhegu, just across the village.

We left as soon as we said we would. Not long after we left the Zhegu Jishan Hall, we heard people talking about Mr. Tan's house being haunted. It really is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.

Isn't this the story of a female horse thief?

Unexpectedly, there was an extra income. Lu Li walked towards Mr. Tan's house at the edge of the village. The gate of the courtyard was new, and it was obvious that a lot of money had been spent on it.

I knocked on the door, and an impatient voice came out from inside: "Who is it? Why are you knocking?"

A young servant opened the door.

"Lu Li, a disciple of Maoshan, heard that there was a ghost here, so he came to catch it."

"Another Maoshan disciple, a Maoshan disciple just came and cheated our master out of a banknote? Are you in the same group?"

The young man became furious when he heard the term "Maoshan disciple".

Lu Li knew that he was talking about Maoshan Ming, so he was not angry.

"You can tell if it's a scam by just looking at it. If you can't catch it, then you don't have to pay.

Menzi opened the door and led Lu Li in.

Mr. Tan and his family were standing in the yard discussing something with sad faces when they heard the doorman's report.

Mr. Tan said casually: "Then let's give it a try."

He didn't take Lu Li seriously in his words, after all, he was too young.

Although Lu Li had read the plot, he still checked the feng shui of the house just in case.

"Tsk tsk, that's amazing, the Yin house and Yang house are stacked together, and your family lives on top of the grave, no wonder it's haunted."

Lu Li spoke very loudly, and Mr. Tan was shocked when he heard it.

"Do you know what's going on? Master, please help us catch him. Our whole family has been tortured."

Lu Li raised a finger and said, "One hundred dollars, completely solve the problem. If you don't agree, I will leave."

Most businessmen in this era are unscrupulous and will not hesitate to make a profit.

After hesitating for a while, Boss Tan gritted his teeth and nodded, "Deal!"

Lu Li smiled and walked into the house.

"Come out!"

Lu Li no longer suppressed the fluctuations of his magical power.

The ghosts appeared one after another, there were dozens of them in total.

Well, this is still a ancestral tomb.

Lu Li shook his head: "Tell me, how to solve it? I know your life span has not yet ended, but they have spent money to build the house, you can't not live in it."

As if sensing that Lu Li was easy to talk to, one of the middle-aged male ghosts said firmly: "This is our home, they must move out."

The lightning mark on Lu Li’s forehead lit up, and dozens of ghosts in the room were instantly pressed to the ground.

"It seems like you are too shameless to appreciate my kindness. Wouldn't it be easier to just let your souls fly away and never be reborn?"

The ghosts were so uncomfortable that they couldn't move. A girl in white clothes cried and said, "Master, it was my father who was impulsive. Please forgive us and let us move away."

Putting away his magic power, Lu Li said, "I am not an unreasonable person. It's just that your life span has not yet ended. It's not comfortable to stay here during the day, and you have to be baked by the sun in the world of the living."

"Why don't I send you to the underworld and wait there? I'll have the owner burn some paper money for you. Wouldn't it be better for the house and servants?"

The girl smiled gratefully and turned back to discuss with the ghosts, and they all agreed to go to the underworld and wait.

Lu Li went out and wrote a talisman and burned it, which was to inform the underworld of the origins of these ghosts.

Then he opened the door to the underworld and sent these ghosts down.

He also told Tan Baiwan about the demands of the ghosts. When he heard that burning some paper money for houses could solve the problem, he immediately ordered people to go out and buy some.

Lu Li asked about the birth dates of all the ghosts in advance so that Tan Baiwan would not burn the wrong ones.

Tan Baiwan gave Lu Li an extra ten dollars and he didn't refuse.

Those who spend money lavishly during this period really need to earn more.

After collecting the money, Lu Li prepared to go to Longjia Village.

According to the plot, horse thieves will enter the village tonight, so we should hurry up just in case.

Sure enough, before we even reached the village, we heard shouting and screaming coming from the woods west of the village.

When Lu Li rushed over, he saw that the village security team and villagers were fighting a group of horse thieves wearing animal skins.

However, it was obvious that the scattered soldiers were no match for these horse thieves, each of whom was invulnerable to swords and guns and had immense strength.

Uncle Jiu and Wencai were actually among them.

Fortunately, I didn’t go back to the charity cemetery directly, otherwise I would have come back empty-handed.
