Chapter 7: Yin Copper Coin Sword

Chapter 7: Yin Copper Coin Sword
The afterglow of the setting sun faded, and the sky was gradually dyed ink-black.

The world of allusions is different from the main world and is not full of evil spirits and monsters.

It seems that the conditions for a living person to become a ghost after death are rather harsh, and there is a lack of barriers between humans and ghosts, so the degree of danger is far greater than that of the main world.

Before anyone knew it, Cailian Town was deserted.

Every household locked their doors and windows, and no one dared to make the slightest noise inside the house.

The yamen was equally silent, with the yellow talismans swaying in the wind. The officers and soldiers were on high alert, surrounding the courtyard in three layers.

While resting, Yang He secretly studied the art of qigong.

Even though it lacks the content of guiding Yin energy, the art of looking at qi is still very useful. The ghost pupil can actually see the Yang energy of living people.

To be precise, they are the three yang fires of a living person.

The three yang fires are the manifestation of yang energy, and they are located on the shoulders and top of the head of a living person. Once the yang fires are extinguished, it means that life is about to be destroyed.

Yang He also realized Nezha’s ferocious nature that no one should be allowed to approach him.

Among everyone, including the constables, his Yang Fire is the weakest.

Once Nezha’s Hun Tian Ling was strangled, even the ghost pupil could not easily break free. Although he seemed to have escaped the disaster, in fact, the evil spirit had penetrated deep into his bones.

The marks on Yang He’s neck not only did not ease, but instead became deeper within half a day.

He even had the illusion that his head was going to fall off at any moment.

thump.

Suddenly, the coffin began to move without any warning.

Half of the officers and soldiers vomited blood, their yang energy plummeted, and they almost died, but soon the coffins returned to calm.

“General Li, the Third Young Master is awake!!”

The courtyard was in chaos, but Li Feng did not act rashly.

Yang He noticed that the wood of the coffin had become a little oily for some reason.

As if soaked in blood.

Yang He stared at the coffin, and with his spiritual vision restored to 3 o’clock, he saw some clues. The criss-crossing blood vessels were spread all over the four sides of the coffin.

A coffin? No, more like a woman’s chamber for a baby.

The strange thing just now was just Nezha’s fetal movement and turning over.

“Keep guarding, no one will be killed before midnight.”

Li Feng spoke lightly, then closed his eyes and leaned against the door.

Everyone was feeling uneasy, as County Magistrate Qian had already left the courtyard early.

The atmosphere was extremely depressing. Yang He walked out of the courtyard to get some fresh air and eat some dry food prepared by the government office so that the Taoist priest would not survive until midnight.

Song Kuo hurried over in the dark and went straight to where Yang He was.

“Master Yang, Carpenter Wang is dead.”

“How did he die?” Yang He’s heart trembled and he asked quickly.

“Hanged.”

“We are currently building a new cover, but repairing the old cover is probably difficult.”

The two were silent for a long time before Song Kuo spoke again, “I turned the government storehouse upside down and found a magic sword made of copper coins. I wonder if I can use it?”

“Okay, let me take a look.”

Yang He raised his eyebrows. There were records about the copper coin sword in the art of qigong.

This magic weapon for warding off evil spirits is relatively rare. Each copper coin on the sword is very particular. It must have been issued in a dynasty with strong national strength, and must be in good condition with clear handwriting.

Yang He took the copper coin sword wrapped in white cloth.

As soon as I touched it, a cool feeling rushed straight to my forehead.

Song Kuo smiled awkwardly and said, “It is indeed a bit weird. The government records show that it has caused many people to fall seriously ill. Taoist priest, please don’t despise it.”

Yang He lifted the white cloth, and saw a magic sword made of a hundred copper coins strung together with a red thread. Even though it was not sharpened, it still gave off a chill.

【Yin Copper Coin Sword】

[Ordinary yin objects made of copper coins in tombs do not have the effect of warding off evil spirits. They can damage the yang energy if they hurt living people, and they are also effective in dealing with ghosts. ]

“Good guy.”

The copper coin sword is most afraid of the Yin coins in tombs, but this magic sword does the opposite.

Song Kuo asked nervously, “Master Yang, how is it?”

“Quite useful.”

“That’s good.”

Yang He put the Yin Copper Coin Sword on his waist. It didn’t matter if it affected the Yang energy. After all, the vests of Taoist priests in the martial arts world were probably disposable.

He was somewhat reluctant to part with the Yin Copper Coin Sword, fearing that it would be damaged in Nezha’s hands.

In the main world, this Yin weapon is perfect for self-defense. If a warrior is hit by a few swords, the hungry ghosts in his body will probably retaliate directly.

The only drawback is that it is not durable. If a few copper coins are damaged, its power will be greatly reduced. Yang He returned to the courtyard with satisfaction, waiting for the arrival of midnight.

He pretended to sit cross-legged in meditation, but due to the damage to his yang energy, he felt exhausted and soon began to snore.

Time passed quietly.

Yang He was half asleep and half awake when he vaguely heard a baby crying.

He woke up with a start.

It was already late at night, and the government office was brightly lit with candles everywhere, but in the courtyard, no matter how many lanterns were lit, it was not enough, and the surroundings were terribly gloomy.

Song Kuo’s teeth chattered, and he helped Yang He up while saying hoarsely, “It’s already midnight, Taoist Yang, I was about to call you to wake up.”

“How is the new cover being prepared?”

“According to the General’s Mansion’s request, we temporarily found a piece of century-old locust wood, and the coffin cover will be delivered to the courtyard soon.”

Song Kuo completely regarded Yang He as his life-saving straw.

He finally understood that the General’s Mansion didn’t care about Cailian Town at all. If he wanted to survive midnight tonight, he could only rely on Taoist Yang.

Li Feng shouted in a deep voice: “It’s midnight, where is the coffin lid?!”

Many yellow talismans emitted a faint light, attracting mosquitoes to buzz.

Song Kuo quickly responded to Li Feng, “Master Li, we’re almost there!”

Li Feng stood in the shadows, staring at the coffin, his expression unclear.

Yang He tried to keep his spirits up. His spiritual vision grew faster and faster, as if he could even see Nezha’s body through the coffin.

[Spiritual Vision: 5.6 points]

Dense footsteps came from far away, and four constables carried the coffin into the courtyard.

The locust wood cover is extremely thick, but its dark brown color seems out of place.

Li Feng weighed the cover and signaled the soldiers to step forward. “Third Master, please go slowly and don’t wake up again. The General’s Mansion will take you there.”

He shouted in a weird chant, and the officers and soldiers began to pound the ground with their fists.

The frequency is fast and slow.

Yang He only felt his heart beating wildly. It should be some kind of Taoist method of salvation. The coffin then stopped moving and the temperature in the courtyard dropped sharply.

In the eyes of spiritual vision, the texture of the coffin material is becoming more and more like flesh and blood.

Yang He got goosebumps and his right arm was nervously grasped by Song Kuo.

“Open the coffin!”

As soon as Li Feng finished speaking, he pointed out four officers and soldiers.

“drink.”

The officers and soldiers’ expressions were full of fear, but they did not disobey Li Feng’s orders. The four of them stood at the four corners of the coffin and carefully lifted the cover.

Just a tiny gap appeared, and the surging Yin Energy was already as real as substance.

Yang He felt a swelling and pain in his temple, blood was dripping from his nose, and all kinds of noises were echoing in his ears.

[Spiritual Vision: 6.8 points]

The threat posed by Nezha is simply not comparable to that of the Three Mountain Goddesses. Of course, the benefits are also far beyond the ordinary. The spiritual vision is obtained at the cost of one’s life.

Song Kuo asked fearfully, “Master Yang, should we leave the courtyard?”

“Do not.”

Yang He lowered his voice and explained: “Master Li is guarding the courtyard. As long as we don’t lose control, we still have a chance to survive.”

Song Kuo’s pupils dilated and he almost collapsed to the ground.

The wind was blowing coldly and the baby in the coffin was crying with resentment.

The four soldiers froze in place, their bodies reduced to skin and bones. Their twenty-four ribs continued to grow, forming a bone circle in their chests.

“continue.”

Li Feng’s words were calm, and four more people took over the cover.

They wanted to push the body away, but found that the body was still holding on to the cover tightly.

dong dong dong.

It was Nezha knocking on the cover.

The casualties among officers and soldiers increased, and they turned into corpses in less than ten breaths. Their bodies were connected to the lids, making it increasingly difficult for later generations to carry their coffins.

Li Feng showed murderous intent on his face, and his blood vessels and meridians burst.

“Third Young Master, why are you struggling to stay in the world of the living?”

“Don’t blame me…”

At this moment.

Without waiting for Li Feng to finish speaking, Yang He took the initiative to step forward amid the horrified gazes of others, his ghost pupil opened between his brows, and he rushed to lift the cover with both hands.
