Raising Ghosts Records

Chapter 236 Rumors of Qin Shihuang and the Elixir of Life

I didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. I thought that this empty-handed white wolf would have the same scene as in the movie, such as a group of people chasing us with guns. It seemed that I was thinking too much.Perhaps because of the severe crackdown in the past few years, these people can only do it secretly in the middle of the night, and relatively speaking, it is only a small business.

It was almost dawn when I returned to Yinjing, and I carried the snakeskin bag picked up by the roadside on my shoulder. It contained the things I got tonight, and filled it with some weeds as a cover, which looked like a sack of rice.When they got back to Fatty's house, neither of them slept, they were sitting in the lobby playing chess.As soon as they saw me coming back, the two immediately leaned forward and asked me what was the big bag on my shoulders, and the little brother Qinshou even reached out to touch it.

I smiled without saying a word and closed the door by the way, then grabbed the bag butt and shook it, pouring out the contents of the bag, it was a thick pile of weeds.The little brother Qinshou and the fat man looked puzzled, and asked me why I came back with a bag of weeds!

"Who said that what I brought back was weeds, you can take a look, is this a weed?" I pretended to be unhappy and said to them.

The little brother Qinshou and the fat man immediately went to pick up the weeds, and turned out the gun hidden inside at once, followed by grenades, sabers, and magazines.The two were so excited, as if they had found some treasure, the little brother Qinshou immediately grabbed the gun and fiddled with it, while the fat man picked up a saber, flicked the blade with his fingers a few times, and said straight away that it was a good knife .They looked at it and asked me how much it cost!When I said that I didn't spend a dime, they were so surprised that they almost dropped the things in their hands. They looked at me with mixed eyes, both puzzled and admired.Little Brother Qinshou even asked me whether it was stolen or robbed, or else it was a lie.On the contrary, the fat man is much more civilized. He asked me how I got it. Could it be that those people gave it to me?
I told them not to ask so many questions, and pack up quickly!In another half an hour, maybe someone will come to the door, so let's talk slowly on the way.

When the two heard it, they seemed to understand something, and they didn't ask any more questions. The fat man immediately went back to his room to pack his things.He brought out a wooden cabinet from the room, and asked us to put the knives, guns and grenades in the bottom of the box, and then stuffed some clothes and shoes on it.

It was packed in less than 10 minutes, and the three of us went out immediately, and the fat man walked behind carrying a wooden box.Then just after walking a few tens of meters, he told us to wait a while, then put the wooden box on the ground, and ran towards the house quickly.After opening the door and entering the house, the fat man lit some incense sticks and put them in the incense burner, then kowtowed to his father's portrait in the hall, then got up and closed the door to leave
It was just dawn when we walked out of the village entrance, and when we walked to an intersection not far from the village, a tractor just came out from the neighboring village, and the fat man greeted us and got on the car.More than half an hour later, the tractor stopped near Ruili City, and we jumped out of the car and went straight to the station.

In the next two days, we changed trains four or five times, two or three hours less, eight or nine hours more, and finally returned to Dao County.I let the fat man and the beast little brother temporarily stay in a hotel in Dao County to wait for my notice, and then I went back to Ye Feiji's noodle shop by myself.

There were seven or eight diners eating noodles in the store, and Ye Feiji's mother and younger sister were busy with work, and when they saw me coming back, they told me that Ye Feiji had already returned from Guilin.

I didn't introduce Ye Feiji's noodle shop before, it was a small two and a half storey building, and it was Ye Feiji's own house.The powder shop on the first floor is slightly narrower than the classroom, and the kitchen and toilet are at the back, and there is another room where Ye Feiji's parents live.The second floor is a living room, two rooms and a balcony. The sisters Ye Feijiu and Ye Feijiu live in one room, and now a small Mizaki is added, and her younger brother Ye Feichai occupies the other room alone.The third floor is a half-floor building, with a room and a miscellaneous room. When I first came here, I lived with Ye Feiji. Later, Ye Feiji’s mother got me a room on the third floor. Of course, the rent has to be paid.

I went to the living room on the second floor, and saw Ye Feiji and Xiao Jianzaki lazily lying on the sofa watching cartoons, so I walked over and sat beside them.Since Ye Feiji got to know me, her family's life has improved a lot, especially when she was given thousands of yuan in Wuzhou.Not only did they buy TV sets and leather sofas, but the whole family also replaced the wooden beds.The second floor has also been renovated, and it looks a bit luxurious. Such a family is considered rich in the countryside, and it is already considered acceptable in the county.

As soon as the lazy Ye Feiji saw me coming back, he immediately regained his spirits, grabbed me and started talking non-stop, talking about what he saw and heard in Guilin, and regretted that I didn't accompany her.

After listening to her stretching, I pinched Komisaki's face, and got up to go to the room on the third floor to sleep. After all, I hadn't slept well for two days after riding the car for two days.

Ye Feiji immediately pulled me back, saying that she has a business to ask me to help, which is very honorable.

I told her to say something quickly, I am waiting to go to bed!

Ye Feiji told me that she wanted to retake the university entrance exam, but her parents disagreed, especially her mother, who said that if she could make money, why would she go back to study? After studying, she might not be able to earn half of the money she is now!But Ye Feiji said that she really wanted to go to school, her younger siblings were all studying, and Xiao Jianqi was also studying, so she was the only one doing nothing all day, for fear of leaving regrets in the future.

I laughed and asked her if it was not enough for her to go to high school. She was 20 years old and had to repeat it for a year. By the time she graduated from university, she would be 25 years old and old, and she might not even pass the exam.

Ye Feiji hurriedly explained, saying that her real age is only 19 years old, and 20 years old is just a fictitious age. It is normal to graduate from university at 24 years old, and most people are at this age.

I asked her what help she wanted from me. Are you sure you have the strength to repeat the exam?
With a confident face, Ye Feiji said that she wanted to study at the School of Civil Engineering of Tongji University in Shanghai, where the teaching and research strength is the strongest in China.The country's current infrastructure construction is backward, and it will definitely build infrastructure on a large scale in the future, so learning this is very promising, and going to Tongji University is the first choice.

I was puzzled and asked her what civil engineering is. Can you be more straightforward? Ye Feiji pretended to be knowledgeable and said that civil engineering is related to construction, such as building bridges, building buildings and repairing highways. Yes, it has something to do with construction anyway.

When I heard it, I thought it was pretty good, so I asked her what kind of help she wanted from me. Ye Feiji said to borrow money, as long as I lend her the money for high school.This can be regarded as an indirect contribution to the construction of the motherland. How glorious it is to subsidize a genius to be admitted to a key university!Ye Feiji said in a self-indulgent manner.

I thought about it for a while and thought it was okay, this is also a kind of investment, maybe in the future when I am down and out, there will be another Ye Feiji who will help me.So I agreed to her. Seeing that I agreed, Ye Feiji danced happily and swore that she would definitely pass the exam.But then she said that she didn't want me to really borrow money from her, but just keep her salary.

I waved my hand and said it's all right, I'm not obsessed with money, especially I'm very generous with my acquaintances, it's not like you don't know that.

Ye Feiji smiled when she heard that, and I quickly asked her what to do with Xiao Jianqi after studying, and Ye Feiji said that her mother would pick her up from school.When I got older in elementary school, I went by myself, and I didn't have to worry about middle school after that.

Hearing what she said, the appearance of Komisaki in middle school immediately appeared in my mind. He must be in his teens at that time!It can be regarded as growing up, and I look forward to it when I think about it, but I will marry a wife by then!

After chatting with Ye Feiji for a while, I went upstairs and went back to my room to sleep, and slept until Xiao Jianzaki called me up to eat at night.After dinner, I took a bath and continued to sleep. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I was refreshed, and I couldn't fall asleep again.Reluctantly, I leaned on the bed and took out the "Witching and Gu Art", and repeatedly flipped through the pages of soul-replenishing.

After Ye Feiji taught me a lot of literacy, when I learned about the out-of-body technique in the book, my first thought was very evil, that is to get out of the body to peek at beautiful women taking a bath.But I have never done this before, and I don’t have this kind of idea now, maybe I haven’t met anyone who makes me have this idea for the time being!

After I lay in bed and read the content of replenishing the soul several times, I started to turn back the pages that I hadn't turned over. They were all magic tricks such as creating yin gathering places and destroying feng shui.The so-called sorcery is the magic technique used for improper purposes, but if it is said that it can bring benefits to oneself, who cares whether these magic techniques are used for legitimate purposes!

I continued to flip through and turned to the remaining small part, which turned out to be recorded folk stories, similar to Liaozhai, but the recorded content is much older.A short story about Qin Shihuang and the elixir of life attracted me, and I read it with relish, about four or five pages long.

The story tells that Qin Shihuang wanted to live forever in order to rule the world forever. Of course, this idea was first proposed by a minister.

To refine the elixir of life, extremely precious and rare medicine primers are needed, such as the essence and blood of a kind of divine bird, and some unknown immortal herbs.In addition, there is a legend that there is a fairyland Penglai overseas, where gods live, and if you find a god, you can ask them to give you the medicine of elixir.

In order to live forever, Qin Shihuang tried all kinds of methods. He not only sent people overseas to find the gods in the fairyland, but also sent people into the mountains to find other medicine primers.

A total of thousands of people were sent to search for it in the mountains not far from the imperial city of Qin. They searched for seven years and found dozens of rare and rare grasses.

However, Qin Shihuang was short-lived and died at the age of 50, failing to wait for the elixir of life to be practiced.The people who were sent overseas to look for the gods did not come back, and the whereabouts of those rare and rare grasses are also unknown. Some say they were buried in the tomb of Qin Shihuang.

Looking further down, there are records about some rare and rare grasses. It is said that there are 35 species, but most of them do not have names, and only nine have names.
