Chapter 360 Rare Treasure
Before sunset.
Chi Xuan looked pale and slumped on the seat of the pergola without any image.
He felt that his blood could no longer be drained, otherwise he would die.
Now this situation is life-threatening. Fortunately, I know how to use Qi-locking Taoist magic, otherwise I might be completely unable to move.
After finally getting rid of all the invading evil spirits, Master Zhou's body was finally set on fire with a yellow talisman.
This is the limit of what he can do.
Rest for a few days.
Chi Xuan's face looked much better.
This is also due to the Zhou family's substantial financial resources, and many rare medicinal materials can be found.
Mr. Zhou also told Chi Xuan the secret of that thing because he really had no choice. The evil influence of that thing continues to expand, making people in the family feel dizzy at worst, and even comatose at worst.
Faced with such an unsolvable matter, even if you know it is a treasure, as an ordinary person, you can only stay away.
Of course he understands better the reason why a common man is innocent and possessing a jade is a crime.
It just so happened that Chi Xuan was very capable in his eyes. He was a strange person who had both strength and knowledge. It is better to tell Chi Xuan about the treasure than to bury it and let others dig it out.
The Zhou family has some influence in the local area, so the yard is naturally large.
The gatekeeper's yard is very particular, so please ask a professional Feng Shui master to check it out.
But when he came back, Chi Xuan felt the evil spirit that enveloped the entire courtyard like a mist at a glance.
I smeared my eyelids with incense ash and applied gold thread.
The evil spirit in front of him finally appeared in front of him.
The scope of the spread of evil spirits is so large that it cannot be judged by common sense.
Chi Xuan looked solemn.
With such a large range of evil spirits, the entire small county may be affected.
Why hasn’t the court responded yet?
It's really unreasonable.
But now is not the time to think too much, Mr. Zhou has already led him into the backyard. The gate to the backyard was sealed, and there were no servants around. I felt a biting chill coming over me, making me shiver.
"Taoist Priest, that... that thing is inside." Zhou Hui looked at Chi Xuan nervously. He was now very worried. If even Taoist Priest Chi Xuan couldn't solve it, he would have no choice but to report it to the government.
However, the government acted in a domineering manner and had no choice but to seal off the entire courtyard.
This is the ancestral home and family property. If it is taken away, the whole family will not even have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Fortunately, the government has been quiet these days.
Chi Xuan took out his own small abacus, shook it in his hand, and the beads clicked loudly. He faced Zhou and said, "Master Zhou, if the poor Taoist can't solve the problem, the loss can be compensated. Count twenty-one talismans." , the cost of suppressing the corpse demon, and the reward for uprooting this thing..."
"Taoist priest, don't worry, I've already prepared the money."
"Please also ask the Taoist priest to resolve it as soon as possible."
Zhou Hui hurriedly nodded in agreement. He just wanted to get rid of the things inside before the officials arrived. Regardless of whether they were treasures or not, it was only right to preserve the foundation of his family first.
"Pindao, give it a try."
Chi Xuan pursed his lips, put away his little calculation, and pushed open the closed door in front of him.
As soon as the door opened, the evil wind roared and the evil spirit hit my face.
Fortunately, the brilliance of the talisman blocked him for a while, but he still felt extraordinary. He turned around and said, "Master Zhou, please step back. I will go in and take a look."
Zhou Hui had already retreated away. He was wearing single clothes on this hot summer day and could not block the biting evil spirits. How could he dare to stay in front of the door any longer.
Against the evil spirit, Chi Xuan approached slowly.
The light of the amulet quickly dimmed, and the circular shield around it became pitted and even dissolved into several large holes.
The gap spread, and in a short time the amulet was completely eroded.
It turned into ashes and slipped away through the cracks in the palm.
Chi Xuan gritted his teeth and took out a triangular talisman from his arms, holding it in his hand. A thin layer of light shrouded his side, surrounding him.
The evil spirit does not seem to be hostile, nor does it seem to be controlled by humans.
Feel the air currents and breaths surging around you, as if they are gathering from all around, and finally pouring into the Zhou family's courtyard, and the evil things that attract you are standing quietly on the blue bricks.
Chi Xuan finally got closer and saw clearly what was in front of him.
It was a small scattered flag.
It looks like it's only about three feet tall.
The flag pole is inserted diagonally on the blue bricks. With the gathering of evil spirits around, the flag surface flutters gently, and the evil ghost relief on it is lifelike, as if it will pounce on it at the next moment.
Chi Xuan's heart was beating loudly.
The small flag in front of me is definitely a magic weapon for practitioners.
He, a half-hearted warlock, didn't have much magic power at his disposal, but when faced with this treasure, he could still see its extraordinary qualities at a glance.
He forced his body to get closer to the soul flag, but stretched out his hand but it stopped in mid-air.
He didn't know if he should pick it up, or if there would be any bad consequences if he picked it up. He is just a Taoist priest with some magic power.
His martial arts skills are mediocre, and his cultivation level also has some shortcomings.
It's hard to say that one careless move could cost you your life.
Looking at this magical weapon, you can also see its eerie flag. If it is something evil, taking it by yourself will not lead to trouble.
Chi Xuan hesitated for a moment and finally put his palm up.
The opportunity was right in front of him, and he didn't want to regret it.
He didn't want to be like his master, who regretted half his life after losing him, and finally went to the grave with regrets.
"Master, Tianbao doesn't know whether this is right or wrong, but I don't want to be like you." Chi Xuan murmured and dropped his palm.
A trace of mana poured into the soul flag.
The soul flag was reduced to a few inches, and its surface was wrapped around the main pole, turning into something as ordinary as a stone. The evil energy around them no longer has a target, as if it has no eye of the storm to attract them and disperses in all directions.
The biting cold was gradually disappearing.
Chi Xuan was left standing there with a surprised look on his face, staring blankly at the jade magic weapon wrapped in flags and cloth in his hand.
"What kind of magic weapon is this?"
"what's the effect?"
"How should it be used?"
"..."
Chi Xuan has never been so confused as he is today. His pitiful mana is like a mud cow drowning in the sea, without any ripples at all.
"Taoist priest?"
Zhou Hui's shouts awakened Chi Xuan from his deep thoughts. Finally, he straightened up his appearance, pretended to be a master who had solved the problem, and walked out of the small courtyard calmly.
"Mr. Zhou, the matter has been resolved."
"It is indeed a good thing. It can gather yin and suppress evil spirits. It is of no use to ordinary people. It is actually harmful."
"If we use it, we can refine the evil drawing talisman or make it into a seal magic weapon." The lie came out of his mouth, and Chi Xuan didn't have any psychological burden. He also showed Zhou Hui the main pole wrapped in banner cloth.
The main pole is dark with scarlet lines and a little gold thread.
Because there are no fluctuations, and the magic power is absorbed to shrink the whole, it looks like just a very strange jade and rags. There is nothing strange about it, and it does not have the brilliance and prosperity that Zhou Hui imagined.
Zhou Hui originally expected it to be a treasure, but now he saw that it was indeed just a piece of jade and a rag wrapping the jade. There was nothing strange about it at all.
And after taking this thing away, the coldness around it also disappeared.
It should be close to what Taoist Priest Chi Xuan said.
Looking at Taoist Priest Chi Xuan's confused and slightly confused and disappointed look, Zhou Hui felt that even if this was a treasure, it probably wasn't that important.
At this time, he could not help but retreat. If the Taoist priest asked him to compensate for the losses, he would be bleeding heavily.
"Taoist Priest, I didn't know that the treasure would be like this." Zhou Hui said quickly: "I have prepared fifty taels of silver to give to the Taoist Priest as a reward from the Taoist Priest."
Although he was very happy in his heart, he still looked hesitant and took out a small abacus.
Zhou Hui grabbed Chi Xuan's hand, covered the abacus with both hands and said, "Hey, Taoist Priest, there's no need to forget it. I'll add another twenty taels as a personal reward."
"You also know that my father has recently lost his life, and the family business needs to be replenished. I would like to ask the Taoist priest for the sake of the blind date and neighbors..."
Taoist Chi Xuan put away his little calculation and sighed: "I have to thank Young Master Zhou for the medicinal materials he found."
The politeness was enough, and Chi Xuan didn't push the envelope further.
Although I don’t know the purpose of the magic weapon, I know it is a good object just by looking at the formation.
He is not a greedy person either. The main purpose of this gesture was to make Zhou Hui feel at ease and stop worrying about him.
I took the banknote and the twenty-tael bonus.
Chi Xuan planned to go shopping in Jicheng and stop by the market to see if there were any affordable elixir materials, or to find some money-making jobs.
Of course, this money is not secular silver, but the currency among monks.
When his master died, he left him three spiritual stones. He used one to buy the Pulse Opening Pill, but now there are two left. He regards them as the most important treasures, much more precious than his talismans and wooden swords.
Ji County is not that big, and the city walls in the small county town are not even three feet high. They are still made of rammed earth walls, unlike the big cities that are built with blue bricks.
Entered the city.
Go straight to the alley.
There was a slight ghosting in the alley in front of him, and then as if passing through a layer of water curtain, the noise around him disappeared.
"Isn't today a market day? Why are there so few people?" Chi Xuan looked around with confusion. There were only two or three big cats and kittens left, and there were actually warriors without magic power among them.
The old acquaintances from the past were not seen.
"Taoist Priest? You didn't go?"
"Where are you going?" Hearing this, Chi Xuan looked at the speaker.
It turned out to be Mr. Dan's disciple, who was setting up a stall nearby. When he saw Chi Xuan's figure, he packed up his baggage and came over.
"The government office summoned people, but they didn't know what to do. Even my master was called over."
"I thought the Taoist priest would also go."
"When did it happen?"
"Just the past two days."
Chi Xuan immediately understood that he was recuperating in the past two days and did not even go back to the Taoist temple. Even if he really wanted to find him, he could not find anyone.
No wonder it's so sluggish today, it turns out there's a reason for it.
"Taoist Priest Chixuan?"
A man in policeman's robes approached.
"Who are you."
"The little county government officer has been waiting for you for a long time. The county magistrate has made it clear that if Taoist Priest Chixuan appears, he must take action."
"Pindao is ill and it's really inconvenient for him to help."
"It's said from above that the one who contributes the most will get a spiritual stone, and the rest will share other rewards according to their merits."
Chi Xuande's eyes sparkled brightly and he said loudly: "It's not too late!"
