Chapter 156 Book

Qiu Yunpan looked at the bronze mace and could not see any disaster. He didn't look like Zhai Tan was joking, nor did he dare to talk nonsense. He stood there and didn't know what to say.

Zhai Tan touched the copper mace and said in a deep voice: "This Chixiazi is indeed unethical. I know that once I give this thing to me, I will investigate. Grandma, after he did this, my quiet life will be disrupted again. You boy, we are going to go far this time."[]

Qiu Yunpan still didn't understand what was going on for a long time and said, "Master, even if this copper mace is strange, compared with the treasures in your hand, it is just an ordinary object. How come you look like you are being collected?"

"You usually ask you to read more books, and you will steal snacks from those ordinary people to catch birds. Now you are stunned? Tell you that the most soft thing in the world is water, and the most hard thing is gold. However, there is a god in our Taoism who is the most soft and hard person. This bronze mace was taken from his hand."

Zhai Tan said this, but in fact, he almost didn't care much about Qiu Yunpan, but just taught some skills to refine Qi and recognize medicine. When he said this now, Qiu Yunpan was very dissatisfied. However, he knew that although Zhai Tan was unreliable, he had a wide range of knowledge. Not only did he understand mysterious arts, hundreds of medicine schools, but he also involved in all kinds of knowledge. Even if it was the most popular Western technology at present, Zhai Tan could say something or say a few words occasionally, which was extremely profound knowledge.

But Zhai Tan was not very patient with most people. When talking about things, it was often caused by a temporary emotion. So once he was interested in talking, he would first detract from the listeners and then say one by one. At this time, the listeners should quickly compliment a few words and deliberately say the wrong things to hear more content. So Qiu Yunpan quickly smirked and said, "Master, I don't read as much as you. The food I eat is not as salt as you eat. Are you talking about Qin Qiong? But isn't he a door god, and he is not a god, let alone I didn't see what kind of immortal he is a blend of gold and water?"

Zhai Tan patted his head and said, "You boy, don't be slick. Do you not read any of the "Book of Gods and Gods" and so on that I gave you? You can revitalize this Taoist throne. By your generation, you will basically be a liar and fortune teller on the street."

Qiu Yunpan knew that every time Zhai Tan said this, he had to teach people seriously, so he quickly said, "Uh... Master, is the honorable god you are talking about the Queen Mother? It seems that her old man is also called Jin Mother, which also symbolizes Jinshui. Don't be embarrassed by my disciples anymore. Your knowledge is stronger than the Hanlin scholars of the previous dynasty. How can my disciples compare?"

Zhai Tan laughed, obviously feeling relieved by being flattered. He touched the copper mace and said, "This thing is a copper mace on the surface. In fact, it cannot be called a copper mace. Uh... it is not right. It should be said that it is not a mace, but a whip. At first glance, it looks similar to a sword, but there is no sword edge or blade, and the others are similar to a sword, so there is definitely not a bumpy one above. Look at this thing again? Can you see any difference?"

Zhai Tan said, handing over the copper mace. Qiu Yunpan took the copper mace and looked for a long time. He found that there were really many irregular potholes on the copper mace. There were some every other section, and said: "Did you touch some weapons? But this is a little dense. Generally, the surface of the mace will be smoother. People with more strength can use it to penetrate the armor directly. Some people can use the mace to penetrate the human chest. There are too many potholes, so it is definitely impossible to do it."

"Hmph, you guy, you're stupid, you're really stupid. I told you that this is actually a whip, very similar to a mace. The whip was surrounded by bamboo joints, but I don't know what method he used to knock off the edge of the whip. The whip was originally an iron strip, almost the same as a mace. Only the obvious difference between bamboo joints, you will certainly not recognize it. The reason why I recognized it is because of the potholes on this thing, there is a circle every other section, and the feeling of buying it. You said that it was a change in the two cold and hot air. In fact, you have no knowledge. In my opinion, this is because someone has integrated ore with gold and water into the copper whip, which is how it is."

Zhai Tan paused and said, "Golden energy and water energy are both cold and cool energy, but using such ores to build weapons is extremely harmful to people. Therefore, the craftsmen used some thoughts and added a little bit of ore with fire, which could restrain each other with the gold and water energy. With so many ores, the weapon would easily be damaged and broken, so it would be so shorter than an ordinary steel whip."

Qiu Yunpan originally knew some medical skills and knew that traditional Chinese medicine believed that the gold in the five elements is lung qi in the human body, water is kidney qi, and fire corresponds to the heart qi. However, this was the first time he heard that he used ore to incorporate these five elements into weapons. And he had used such great strength to cast such weapons, as if it was just to nourish the body and had no use. When he thought of this, he asked, "Master, what are you doing if you don't have such a strong force to create such a useless thing or medicine?"

Zhai Tan thought for a while and said, "The ancients' belief in gods is very different from today. How many people know that Queen Mother of the West, also known as Gold Mother, can also represent gold energy? The ancients were very serious in this regard. They paid great attention to the vividness of the statues, and even tried every means to get closer to the meaning. During the Northern Song Dynasty, there were a group of craftsmen who understood the metaphysics of Yin and Yang and Five Elements, who specialized in shaping very particular statues. They investigated ancient books and studied the deeds of various gods, and focused on the shape and material of the statues.

In a great effort, the gods and immortals can communicate the energy of heaven and earth. Once there are evil spirits, the locals will ask them to go to the statue. Once the statue is built, all demons and monsters within a hundred miles must be moved, otherwise, no matter whether good or evil, they will be destroyed. Later, it is said that this group of people angered countless evil spirits. Once the evil spirits were set up a trap and killed the entire family of craftsmen and hundreds of people. No one knew whether this was the case, but no one had seen these craftsmen again since then."

Seeing that Qiu Yunpan was still confused, Zhai Tan continued: "They generally have two characteristics to build statues of gods. One is the position of the statue, which must be connected with the earth's energy, and then to welcome the celestial phenomena and stars. They believe that this can facilitate communication between heaven and earth, and the other is the weapon of the statue, which must conform to the five elements of the secret combination of this god. The copper whip in our hands is specially made by this group of craftsmen for Marshal Zhao Gongming and Zhao."

Zhai Tan narrowed his eyes and looked at the copper whip and said, "This Zhao Gongming is from Mount Emei. His previous image was black beard, wearing an iron crown, holding a divine whip, and riding a black tiger. It is the image of gold hydration. Moreover, he is in the northwest, which is another manifestation of gold hydration. Although I am not sure now, just by judging from the breath on this copper whip, it must be taken from Marshal Zhao's statue. We must send this copper whip back before the spirit of the statue is lost."

He sneered twice, and said, "This copper whip is the key to the god statue communicating the energy of heaven and earth. Put this thing there, not to be afraid of wind and rain. It will be like new for a long time. It has more and more spiritual energy, which can drive away evil spirits and avoid evil spirits, and can also make the local wind and rain smoothly. Once the copper whip is thrown, the statue will collapse halfway. The objects that originally condensed the energy of heaven and earth are gone, and the spiritual energy will gradually disperse. Not only will the local climate change drastically, I am afraid..."

"Master, are you so sure that it is an object in Marshal Zhao's hand? What if someone is doing it?"

"You kid... you don't believe the master's words, right? Don't believe it, look..." Zhai Tan saw that Qiu Yunpan didn't believe it, and did not explain much. He twisted the handle of the copper whip, and the handle was actually twisted. However, this is an ancient object after all. No matter how well it is preserved, some subtle places have been damaged. The handle originally contained something, and it should have been opened after twisting it, but now it is old, but it is only twisted by Zhai Tan. Zhai Tan took a breath, added a lot of strength to his hand, and finally twisted the handle, and a very thin piece of paper fell out of the handle. Zhai Tan reached out and held it in his hand, saying, "See, there is only this thing in the weapon made of the statue of the god I mentioned."

Qiu Yunpan was stunned for a moment before saying, "Is it the drawing of the statue of a god?"

Zhai Tan spread the paper in his palm, glanced at it, his face suddenly changed, and he didn't answer Qiu Yunpan's words. He got up and took off the bag from the wall, and was about to leave. Qiu Yunpan saw this attitude and rushed forward to pull Zhai Tan and said, "Master, you can't throw me away this time. As soon as you leave, they will ask me to prescribe the prescription. The ones sent are all serious illnesses and I... If I prescribe the wrong medicine, I will definitely be beaten to death. This time you take me with you, and I will carry your luggage, will it be successful?"

Zhai Tan shook Qiu Yunpan, and saw that he had not been shaken off, and said, "I'm going to die for a lifetime. Do you still remember the story I told you before? What I met this time may be even more fierce than what I met that time."

Qiu Yunpan held Zhai Tan's bag, but he didn't let go. While holding it, he shouted: "I just don't let go. I would rather be eaten by the fairy than be beaten to death by the doctor."

Qiu Yunpan said this, but in fact, he didn't want to see a critically ill patient. Although he was small, he was actually very smart. He saw Zhai Tan twisting the handle of the copper whip just now and guessed that it was definitely not the first time Zhai Tan had seen such a weapon, but in his memory, Zhai Tan had never mentioned these things. He vaguely guessed that Zhai Tan must have some major secrets hidden from him. With his understanding of Zhai Tan, this matter must be extremely important, and it is definitely not as simple as a statue of an evil-suppressing god. In addition, Zhai Tan's face just now did not look like he was pretending.
