Chapter 58 Wax Pills

Almost half a year ago, Xi Yingzhen, who had been shopping in Luoyang City for enough brothels, suddenly came to his disciple's mansion. After eating and living for half a month, he asked Shi Chong to go to Chang'an in person and found a family that had been passed down from generation to generation to make a living. No matter how much money it cost, he had to buy a brocade box for their family. Because this matter is confidential, he just asked Shi Chong to go there personally. After he got the things, he agreed to have Shi Chong keep them first. On this day half a year later, Xi Yingzhen would come to pick them up. For this purpose, he specially told Shi Chong to pick them up the things himself and not to hand them over to others privately.

Shi Chong refused to offend a god-like figure like Xi Yingzhen, let alone the two of them had the title of a master and apprentice. At that time, Shi Chong rushed to Xuchang and saw the family named Wang that Xi Yingzhen said. Unlike other monk sects that were said to be the same as other monks and apprentices. This family formed its own sect. Legend has it that during the time when King Wu defeated King Zhou, a priest who escaped from Chaoge's palace was moved to the people, and married and had children and taught all his life's learning to his children and grandchildren.

The cultivator family's specialty is to look at Feng Shui and pray for blessings. At that time, it was very popular among the countries. At its peak, even the alliance between countries would invite the members of the Wang family to pray for blessings. There was a period of time when this family was in the world that even surpassed the alchemist family. However, when the First Emperor unified the world, the good luck of this family seemed to be suddenly used up. After praying for blessings for Yan and Qi, both countries were destroyed by Qin. It was originally a trend of general trend and the fate of the country, but in the end it was said that the Wang family's methods were not good, which in the end it was counterproductive and accelerated the demise of the two countries.

As soon as such rumors spread, they caused a lot of impact on the Wang family. In addition, the world's Taoist throne was in a slump, and the Wang family was in a slump. Later, after more than a dozen separates, the branch of the division could not occupy the light of the family, and finally stopped relying on geomanticism and praying for blessings. What's more, some even changed their surnames and drew a clear line between them.

When Shi Chong arrived at the Wang family's family, it was already in ruins. Except for the patriarch and a few older generations who were still scrambling to hold on, the rest of the young went out to do odd jobs to take up the daily expenses of the family. Since the decline of the Han Dynasty, the whole family has lost business and relied on the support of the younger generations to live.

After entering the door, Shi Chong did not go straight to the point, but said that he was the governor who was out of the distance. He heard that the Wang family prayed for blessings and civilizations, so he took a detour to do a blessing ritual to make a smooth journey.

I heard that there were still people who could remember their Wang family. The old man in his seventies, who was in his life almost cried. If the family hadn't been able to get rid of the blame, the old man would have wanted to give Shi Chong a free prayer. At this moment, the old man called back all the people he could find in his family. He gave a prayer according to the attitude of having been in exchange for the Qin and Jin countries for generations.

After the prayer was completed, the old patriarch's intention was to give him some points. Unexpectedly, the scene afterwards completely scared him. When Shi Chong asked his servants to move baskets of money from the carriage and put it in front of the Wang clan, the old patriarch almost couldn't believe his eyes. After the scene was silent for a moment, all the young and old tribe began to sob.

Looking at the hundreds of people in front of him who had never seen the world, Shi Chong thought that buying the brocade box was no problem this time. He struck while the iron was hot and explained his purpose to the clan leader. Unexpectedly, the old clan leader, who was still crying, changed his face instantly when he heard that the governor was going to buy the brocade box. At this moment, the old clan leader ordered his clan members to return all the money to the governor Shi. This time, the prayer was considered to be given to the governor Shi. Please don’t come back after Shi Chong left.

Now, the Wang clan members were in a panic. The younger generation didn't know the details of the brocade box and didn't let the money they got back. The old man who knew the details of the brocade box didn't say anything, and the same thing was said. The royal masters were afraid of poverty in recent years. Seeing Huang Chengcheng's money making was right beside him, his eyes were red and he still cares what the old patriarch said.

The old patriarch saw that he was the only one who was alone, and he pretended to be deaf and dumb, and he pretended to be crazy and stupid. In short, everyone except himself had to leave the money. At this time, Shi Chong released a killer move. He ordered people to lift two big boxes from another car.

In front of the whole clan, Shi Chong opened the two boxes and revealed the yellow gold ingots inside. Originally, everyone's eyes were covered with copper coins. Now after seeing the yellow gold, even the old patriarch himself felt his heart beating faster and his chest was a little angry.

Seeing that the Wang clan members had already had green light, even the clan leader who had just bitten to death and refused to sell brocade boxes was on the gold and couldn't pull it out. Seeing this, Shi Chong added fire: "This time I went to Xuzhou to take up his post. I didn't bring much money. If I think these two phases of gold are not enough, we can continue to talk. However, if you really refuse to give up, Shi would not force it, and the left and right are just not interested in this thing..."

When Shi Chong said this, the Wang clan members had turned their attention to their clan leader. The expectant gazes of these people were also vicious. If the clan leader still didn't know the truth at this time, he might be attacked by these juniors immediately. At that time, the clan leader's position must be replaced, and it is still a matter of time to say whether he can save his life.

After thinking about it, the patriarch still compromised. The old man sighed, smiled bitterly at Shi Chong, and said, "Now everyone is poor and only pants are left. They are starved to death and cannot hold on to the things left by their ancestors. Since everyone has decided not to keep that thing, just sell it at a good price so that the tribe members can have food and clothing. Lord Shi, the two boxes of gold in brocade box will not be sold. Do you see if you add some more?"

In a blink of an eye, the old patriarch became a bargaining businessman. Shi Chong sneered in his heart: This is for you to see two boxes of gold. If it was just a big ingot at the beginning, it would be possible to leave with the brocade box if it wasn't used for too many gold ingots. But since you are willing to bargain, it would be easy to deal with. There is nothing in the world that you can't afford.

After some bargaining, Shi Chong and the old patriarch agreed to add two boxes of gold. Shi Chong made a lot of scenes and wrote a letter in front of these tribesmen, borrowing two boxes of gold from the local governor. After the servant left with the scriptures, Shi Chong began to ask the patriarch what was inside the brocade box.

Seeing that the matter was halfway, the clan leader personally took Shi Chong to the clan's ancestral hall. In front of Lord Shi, he ordered the clan members to dig up the ground of the ancestral hall. He dug a large mud-sealed wine jar from the inside. The clan leader directed the clan members to move the wine jar out. Then, as Shi Chong saw it, he smashed the wine jar and took out a package wrapped in oil cloth from it.

There was a brocade box inside the package. After the clan leader handed the brocade box to Shi Chong, he said, "It makes me laugh. Although our tribe members guarded the brocade box for generations, they only knew that the brocade box was taken out from Chaoge's palace when King Wu defeated King Zhou. No one knew what it was except that ancestor. When the ancestor returned to heaven, he had a last word, and the brocade box could only be sealed underground. However, when the family was in the life and death, it was not allowed to be taken out. To be honest, our tribe members still entrusted the blessing of Lord Shi, so they were lucky enough to see this box..."

The old patriarch's words surprised Shi Chong. He didn't expect that the things they had hidden themselves were hidden by their clans. Anyway, the box was already his own, and Shi Chong was not polite at the moment. He saw a wax ball the size of a pigeon egg inside. At that time, he thought that this was a pill used by a monk to refine the method. Unexpectedly, after taking it back, the wax ball inside became bigger bit by bit, and finally changed from a pigeon egg to a duck egg.
