Copper Coins Chapter 13: Empty grinding disc (4)
This time, Liu Chong was as Xuan Min said, with a mole on the left side of his face, and his robe was the same gray-blue color that morning. Can't see any problems from top to bottom.
Obviously, this time this is the real master.
When Liu Chong entered through the narrow door, his expression contained three percent confusion and seven percent annoyance. He stepped back and crossed the narrow door three times, hesitatingly took two steps, and only then caught a glimpse of Xuan Min.
He was stunned for a moment, then his face slumped, his eyebrows drooping into a straight line: "I saw, saw my grandmother just now..."
The idiot said as he pointed out the narrow door: "It's over there."
Grandmother?
Isn't that the old lady Liu?
They just got rid of the group of people who were chasing them, this fool won't recruit another group, right? !
Xue Xian, who was hanged in Xuanmin's pocket, heard the words and picked up the corpse again. He looked up at Liu Chong and asked subconsciously, "Where is the person?"
"I chased, my grandmother left." The fool was crying, his tone sounded a little anxious, and he didn't even notice that this was not what Xuan Min asked: "She didn't look at me, I can't find her, and I can't find her. ."
He twists his fingers, looking utterly dismayed. He hooked his head, stared at the narrow door for a while, and then said sullenly, "I want my grandmother to talk to me..."
Xue Xian pondered what Master Liu and his friend had said earlier, that Mrs. Liu should have passed away, and according to the rumors in the town, Jiang Shining's parents were doctored to death. After the old lady passed away, the Jiang Family Medical Hall ran out of water and burned it clean.
Jiang Shining has been dead for three years, so Mrs. Liu has been dead for at least three years.
Most of the fools have a single tendon, and if they think about it, they are really thinking about it day and night. For him, these three years have been extraordinarily long and lonely.
"Let's go." Xuan Min waved at him lightly, then raised his foot and walked towards the dilapidated side house without waiting.
Maybe it's because his high-level monk temperament is too intimidating, or maybe it's because he lifts his feet and walks away. The fool Liu Chong hurried over subconsciously, staggeringly chasing to be side by side with Xuan Min, and then hesitantly said, "I...I want to find my grandmother."
"What's the hurry, go back to the house first." Xue Xian couldn't help flickering.
Liu Chong endured it, and then said, "I'm still... still in a hurry."
Xue Xian simply said: "Hold on!"
Liu Chong stared at Xuan Min's icy profile for a while, and seemed a little scared. He endured two steps, and then hummed boldly: "Why don't you open your mouth when you speak?"
Xuan Min: "..."
Xue Xian opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Ventriloquism, oh, in a nutshell, it is speaking with the stomach."
Liu Chong's eyes slowly rolled, and his eyes fell on Xuan Min's waist.
Xuan Min: "..."
Fortunately, while they were talking, they were already standing at the door of the house. As long as they crossed this threshold, they could get out of the formation.
Xuan Min didn't hesitate without any hesitation, simply lifted his foot, and at the same time withdrew Liu Chong who was half a step behind him. Liu Chong staggered and stepped into the threshold with one foot.
Just as Liu Chong was about to step in with his other foot, there was a "tuk-tuk" sound from somewhere, like the sound of something hitting a bluestone slab.
"Huh?" Liu Chong had never reacted so quickly in his life.
His raised foot stopped immediately, subconsciously called "grandmother", then hurriedly retracted the foot that had stepped into the door, turned his head and rushed out.
"Hey! Wait!" Xue Xian couldn't help shouting.
He saw Xuan Min raised his hand as if he was about to tug at the fool, but just halfway up, he heard a muffled "hum--" in his head, and his eyes immediately went dark, followed by a burst of Turn around.
In just the blink of an eye, a completely different scene was in front of them - they were standing by the door of Liu Chong's side house, with Jiang Shining's pale face in front of them, but Liu Chong was nowhere to be seen.
Apparently, they've gotten out of the game. At the last moment before getting out, Liu Chong temporarily stopped his feet, so he was also left in the formation.
"You finally came out..." Jiang Shining breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were all beards and tails. But before he could relax, he picked it up again, "What about Young Master Liu and Master Liu? Are they still trapped inside?"
Xuan Min nodded, then turned his head without saying a word, and went straight into the back room.
He didn't speak, Jiang Shining didn't dare to speak, he slowly followed behind Xuan Min, standing by the threshold leading to the inner room, watching Xuan Min crouch in front of the copper nails and spells that were nailed to the ground Get down.
Jiang Shining doesn't know anything about these things, but Xue Xian doesn't. He knows a thing or two.
There are only two ways to break the battle, one is from the inside to the outside, and the other is from the outside to the inside.
You're in jail, so of course you have to find the door. And if you are outside the formation and want to release the people trapped in it, the easiest way is to destroy the formation.
Of course, destroying the formation is also a matter of work, Xue Xian thought. After all, those who only eat ghosts and gods have to rely on the formation and solution of the situation. If they can solve it casually, will they still live?
When he saw Xuan Min squatting in front of Huang Fu, he immediately regained his energy. He stretched his neck and opened his eyes, intending to take a good look at how this bald donkey solved the situation and what kind of skills he could do.
Stretch out, reach out!
Xue Xian muttered in his heart, watching Xuan Min stretch out his hand towards the yellow talisman on the ground, and then pinched one of the copper nails.
Want to cut your hands and bleed?
Perhaps what is meant by effort?
Xue Xian secretly guessed while watching the air.
As a result, Xuan Min pulled out the half of the copper nail that was nailed to the ground with a force between his fingers, and then ripped off the yellow talisman on it.
Then...
He pulled the second one and tore off the second yellow talisman;
Then the third root;
Then, there is no then.
Xue Xian: "…………………………"
He watched Xuan Min destroy the copper nail and yellow talisman in the most common way, and he wiped his hands in a hurry. He doesn't know if other gods are still alive when they see this situation, he doesn't want to live anymore anyway.
Xuan Min got up and went to the outside, swept around the table, took out a fire stick in the corner of the corner, wiped it on the edge of the wall, lit a bean fire, and then unceremoniously Burn the three yellow talismans clean.
Of course, for Xue Xian, who "doesn't want to live anymore", this step can be seen or not.
Judging from the appearance of the bald donkey, the formation is probably broken like this, and I think Liu Chong's idiot can be heard screaming in the blink of an eye.
However, after about a cup of tea, Liu Chong and Master Liu still did not appear.
Xue Xian stretched his neck and glanced outside the door, then looked inside, except for Jiang Shining, he really didn't even see a ghost.
********
No success? Or are bald donkeys selling their **** here?
According to the previous ones, the reason why this side house is so yin qi is partly because the river is drawn into the sea bureau, and partly because it is a dead door.
However, now the dead door has been turned into a life door, and the pumping river into the sea has been destroyed by this bald donkey in the most simple and rude way, but the yin in this room is still not ready to dissipate.
The morning light outside the house was already bright, pouring into the Liu family's house from the east. Because of the blocking of the fire wall, a large shadow happened to be formed in front of this partial house. Half of the roof ridge is in the bright place, and half in the dark place, like yin and yang intersecting.
"Hey..."
Xue Xian looked up at Jiang Shining: "What are you sighing? It's not you who is trapped in the battle."
Jiang Shining looked innocent: "I never sighed, didn't you sigh just now?"
Xue Xian answered decisively: "Of course not! I never sigh, how sad."
Jiang Shining: "..."
Xue Xian: "..."
The two stopped their mouths abruptly, looked at each other, and then slowly landed their eyes on Xuan Min's face.
"Hey..."
Another very light sigh, but Xuan Min did not open his mouth. Even if he opened his mouth, the two would no longer think it was his sigh, because this time the sigh was a little longer, the ending was trembling, and the breath was weak. It will be sent by Xuan Min.
"Like an old lady." Xue Xian guessed.
"Do you think this doesn't look like a sigh?" Jiang Shining gestured and said, "It looks like tired... Those old people who are frail and frail have walked long distances or carried heavy objects, and they are so tired When gasping for breath, he hums like this, like a sigh but a little different."
He thought for a while, and then said: "This person is weak and weak, and he is sick."
"With such a trembling and sigh, can you still hear this?" Xue Xian looked at him in disbelief.
Jiang Shining waved his hand: "If my parents are still here, I can hear it better."
Xue Xian responded with a "uh", but he didn't say more, but he was thinking.
Old lady? Tired and panting? Still sick?
When he said that, it was really like that.
Xue Xian suddenly thought of a person. He raised his papery paw to face Xuan Min and slapped it loudly. He was afraid that his strength was not strong enough. Donkey, look at me!"
Xuan Min bowed his head when he heard the words.
Xue Xian raised his face: "..."
After a while, Xue Xian held back and held back, and finally waved his hand to drive away: "Forget it, don't look at it, take your eyeballs back."
Xuan Min: "..." This is the first time he has heard that the eyeballs can still be retracted. This evil obstacle is really unreasonable.
Actually, he didn't know something. Xue Xian was used to being arrogant in the first half of his life, and he could get to the sky if he wanted to. Most of the time, he looked down on everyone, and he had never been looked down upon by others. Xuan Min glanced at him occasionally before, but that's fine. Looking down at him so solemnly, he really couldn't bear it.
Dragons are all about shame.
Xue Xian didn't say anything, it was especially embarrassing at this time.
However, Xuan Min did not turn his eyes away as he wished, but as if he was against him, he still looked at him with a heavy gaze.
It's not a thing... Xue Xian thought angrily.
He rolled his eyes at Xuan Min with his "dead eyes" with a slightly hurt face, then turned around and pointed at Xuan Min with the back of his head: "What I want to say is that Mrs. Liu...Have you ever heard of a way to control the house with extra livestock? I heard it in the market before, saying that if an elderly person dies in the family, they will be kept under the house to protect the children and grandchildren. Blessings stretch."
What kind of grandson would have to come up with such a bad move?
"..." Jiang Shining, a scholar, only felt that the etiquette, righteousness, and honor that he had learned for more than ten years had been shattered.
"Yes." Xuan Min replied in a deep voice, "The name of this method is to build a yin foundation, and the living souls living under the house will become the yin gods of the house. If it cooperates with the Feng Shui Bureau, the effect will be remarkable."
While speaking, another trembling sigh sounded.
If the previous two sounds sounded a little vague, this one became clearer and clearer.
Xuan Min's eyes swept across a corner of the wall on his right, then he raised his foot and walked over.
There were so many paper ingots scattered on the ground that they covered most of the ground, so that they hadn't noticed before that the ground under the paper ingots was mysterious. Xuan Min crouched down at the corner of the wall. From here, he could just see the wooden chest of five drawers in the back, which happened to be opposite the three copper nails and the yellow talisman.
Xuan Min raised his hand to sweep the ingot, raised his index finger, and tapped the ground twice with his knuckles.
Tuk Tuk—
The sound is unusually hollow, and you can tell it's a hanging rock when you hear it.
"Empty!" Xue Xian and Jiang Shining spoke almost simultaneously.
Xuan Min glanced around and saw a gap along the wall. He moved his gaze along the gap again, and finally found four horizontal and vertical slits, which happened to be a stone slab about four palms square.
"This seam..." Jiang Shining reached out and tried, "Anyway, the fingers will definitely not be able to get in."
The slits on all four sides are extremely narrow, and since you can't reach your fingers, it means you can't pry it up. If this slate is not pried open, the things hidden underneath will naturally be invisible.
Xue Xian looked at Jiang Shining's bluish-white ghost claws, and then at Xuanmin's slender, white donkey claws, and finally reluctantly said: "Okay, I can drill through this seam, I Condescending to slide in and give you a blow on the head."
I condescend to...
Jiang Shining felt that the prodigy's words were really shameless.
After Xue Xian finished speaking, he loosened his neck from side to side and turned it out of Xuan Min's secret pocket.
Xuan Min didn't take care of this evil for a while, and let it roll and move to the crack in the stone. When Xue Xian went out, he stretched out his hand and took out a cloth bag from his hidden pocket, unfolded the outer layer, and revealed the inner layer. I saw a row of silver needles of different lengths inserted in this cloth bag from left to right. The elderly can stretch from the bone of their wrist to the base of their fingers, while the short ones are only as long as two knuckles.
Each silver needle seems to be engraved with lines, but it is too subtle to be seen clearly. Jiang Shining could only look around, and was embarrassed to put his head close to see it clearly.
Xuan Min picked out a slightly rough one from the cloth bag and held it in his hand, and put the rest back into the dark bag.
Xue Xian was busy with his work. Just when he finally reached the edge of the stone crevice and was about to slide down the stone crevice, a hand came down from the sky, pinched his head, and carried him back.
He doesn't even have to look to know which bastard's hand it is!
Xue Xian: "... bald donkey, you will be punished for doing so!"
Xuan Min said indifferently: "I'm waiting for the driver."
After saying that, he put the busy Xue Xian back in his dark pocket, inserted the silver needle in his hand into the crack of the stone, and then held the other end and slammed it.
I heard a hollow slate scratching sound slowly, and the seemingly unfolded silver needle actually lifted the slate up one side. Xuan Min grabbed the raised edge with his fingers and lifted the slate open.
At that moment, countless resentful or shrill screams and cries rushed over like a monstrous wave.
Xue Xian only felt that there was a powerful force in his chest, and he had no idea what was going on. Fortunately, he was just a piece of paper, otherwise the heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney would have been hit and vomited out.
Jiang Shining's indifferent exclamation and Xuan Min's muffled groan entered his ears at the same time. When he came back to his senses again, Jiang Shining had already been knocked to the wall, and with a "pop", he showed his original shape, a thin piece, lying on the ground half-dead.
And Xuan Min also raised his hand and pressed it on his chest. He coughed several times before gradually recovering.
"What is this?" Xue Xian was completely exhausted, so he could only hang himself half-dangling from the mouth of the secret bag.
He raised his head feebly and looked at the square hole. I saw that half of the loess was buried in the hole that had been pried open. I could vaguely see an iron chain exposed naked from the loess. The iron chain was wrapped with a yellow talisman. The strange thing was that the iron chain was going around in a circle. move.
Xuan Min frowned and glanced at the slightly damp loess, then raised his head and searched the room.
Xue Xian watched him stand up in confusion, walked to the desk, and found a half-bald pen. Then he returned to the hole and swept away the loess with the pen. .
"..." Xue Xian overcame the bald donkey and sneered to himself: "You're poor, so if you touch the dirt, will your fingers rot?!"
The loess covering it was quickly swept away by Xuan Min, revealing what was hidden underneath.
"This is... a grinding wheel?" Xue Xian asked hesitantly.
According to its appearance, this round stone pier has a hole in the middle, a platform at the bottom, and a horizontal bar on the side, which is obviously a grinding disc. It's just that this grinding disc is extremely small, not much bigger than a slap, and the surface of the grinding disc is not ordinary, but engraved with two complicated runes. One end of the iron chain was fastened to the stone platform under the grinding table, and the other end was fastened to the crossbar.
Without the buffer of the loess, the iron chain falls directly on the stone grinding plate, and when it moves slowly, it will make a shattering sound of "woo-woo-". Every inch it moved, the bar turned by one point, as if an invisible person was locked on the edge of the empty grinding wheel, constantly pushing the grinding wheel day and night.
"Mrs. Liu?" Xue Xian called out subconsciously.
"Hey..."
The tired sigh sounded again...
