Chapter 80: The Mystery of Money

"Yeah?"

Cao Wei did not comment, but a smile appeared between his eyebrows. Seeing this, Chen Jingyi quickly wiped her face and straightened her face again.

"Of course not, I just... lost my temper a little. This guy is so much younger than me, he's just a little kid, how could I like him!"

"It's great to be younger. Being younger and more energetic is better than those lifeless uncles!"

"It's better for men to be more mature!"

Chen Jingyi retorted a little reservedly, but this made Alian, who was obviously a lover of puppies, a little unconvinced. She was about to argue, but Cao Wei coughed twice and interrupted her.

huatou.

"Um, isn't it inappropriate to say this in front of me? You should respect my gender at least."

"What's inappropriate? You're just a stinky younger brother!"

Chen Jingyi glanced at him and said nothing, but Alian retorted in a very rude manner. This made Cao Wei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then started to retaliate without being polite at all.

"What a stinky brother. There are no rules at all. According to your uncle's seniority, you should call me uncle!"

"Uncle? It's just you, you don't have a fever either!"

Seeing that Cao Wei seemed to be talking nonsense, Alian quickly put the pot of tea in her hand on the table and was about to touch Cao Wei's head. However, looking at the evil smile on her face, Cao Wei

Wei knew that this girl was holding back her bad intentions, so she raised her hand and slapped off the girl's little claws. Cao Wei immediately snorted coldly.

"Playing tricks on me? Wait until you cry!"

"Okay, if you have the ability, let me see you later?"

Alian profoundly demonstrated what it means not to shed tears without seeing the coffin. As an insider, Chen Jingyi did not mention a word and made it clear that she wanted to have fun.

The three of them each had their own ideas. But at this moment, Uncle Feng, who had changed his clothes, also stepped in.

"Alian, I asked you to entertain guests, so what are you doing here?"

"Hey, uncle. Why did you change your clothes again? It's not a holiday today, and I haven't heard of anyone being buried in the village? Why do you want to perform a ritual?"

Lin Feng's attire at this moment is very different from before. The pure Yang scarf is a regular headgear for Taoist priests. The yellow double-breasted robe divided in the middle can also be regarded as indicating his identity as a folk Taoist priest of the Damaoshan sect.

Because in orthodox Taoism, the precept robe can only be worn by Taoist priests who have received the precepts, and the shape is also very different.

For example, it has changed from being parted in the middle to having the right lapel folded, with a black cloth belt tied in the middle. Ordinary Taoist priests in Taoist sects will only wear blue uniforms when they travel around. Generally, when holding religious ceremonies, they will wear more

The solemn and complicated class robes even resemble the immortal cave robes.

Strictly speaking, Lin Feng's outfit belongs to the "Nang Lao" of the Chaoshan generation in Guangdong, Guangxi and Shantou. They are a type of folk Taoist priest who specializes in offering salvation to ancestors during funerals or presiding over folk worship activities.

There are many people who dress up like this, such as Lin Feng, a traditional folk Taoist school, or simply a Taoist priest passed down from his family, and even charlatans, even the White Lotus Sect and some witchcraft schools of ethnic minorities, will all use Maoshan.

Dressed like this in name.

Of course some people are capable, like Lin Feng, but most of them are just charlatans and charlatans.

Lin Feng has probably seen a lot of this kind of thing, so he usually doesn't show people this image to avoid being regarded as a liar. But for now, everyone knows the basics, and besides, this ritual is also solemn, so he naturally has to change it.

Let’s talk about this Taoist robe.

"Luosuo, why do you care so much? Now that you've seen it, why don't you come over and help!"

"Uncle Feng, if you need any help, just ask. Anyway, we are just sitting here, why not do something within our ability."

Although he said nice things, Cao Wei actually had other ideas in mind.

On the one hand, it’s Master Lin Ching-ying’s way of setting up the industry, but any old movie fan who grew up watching his zombie movies wouldn’t want to have close contact with people in front of and behind the scenes. This is called feelings.

Also, he planned to steal a master and learn a new skill.

Although the folk Taoist school does not have a deeper foundation and higher social status than Xuanmen Zongzong, it can develop and grow among the people and gradually become an image feature of Taoism. Naturally, it has its merits.

Anyway, Cao Wei's eyesight is now dark, and he knows nothing about magic rituals. So in line with the spirit of thirsty for knowledge, he naturally wants to get involved.

Lin Feng didn't think much about it. After all, as far as he was concerned, Cao Wei, who was fighting for Chen Jingyi, had some other ideas.

A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, not to mention that they are already considered brothers. So, after thinking for a while, he nodded.

"Since senior brother has such an idea, that's the best thing. After all, senior brother's magic power must be more refined. With senior brother's help, today's rituals can be done with twice the result with half the effort!"

"Wait, uncle. What did you call him? Senior brother? Did I hear him wrong?"

He used many rhetorical questions and questioning tone in a row, which fully demonstrated Ah Lian's surprise and doubt at this moment.

After all, a moment ago she was scolding Cao Wei's nose for his stinky brother, but in the blink of an eye, her uncle, who was just like her father, called him senior brother. Calculating this relationship, she was simply a generation shorter.

Naturally she became unhappy.

But there is nothing you can do if you don't like it. Although he dotes on his niece on weekdays, when it comes to rules and principles, Lin Feng will not give in or compromise at all. What's more, with such a relationship, Cao Wei will naturally not be able to

Taking advantage of this master's niece can be regarded as cutting off the possibility between the two in disguise. Naturally, he will not miss such a good opportunity.

"You heard it right. Senior brother is a senior disciple of Quanzhen Ming Dynasty. In terms of seniority, he is much higher than me. It's just that we are not in the same sect, so we can only treat him as brothers. In short, this seniority is determined

Get off. When you meet senior brother in the future, remember to say hello, you know?"

"Do you know? Master's niece?"

I made you laugh just now, isn’t it now the reward for this world?

Cao Wei smiled maliciously at Alian. The girl was so angry that her eyes widened and she gritted her teeth.

"My stinky brother wants to take advantage of me, don't even think about it!"

After saying that, without giving Cao Wei a chance to speak, the girl pouted and ran away very fast. Seeing her run away in a fit of anger, Lin Feng was so angry that he shouted quickly.

"Alian, Alian, stop!"

"Forget it, forget it. Uncle Feng, business matters. It's normal for a child not to accept this kind of thing. As time goes by, she will gradually get used to it, right?"

Even though he said this, Lin Feng still felt an indescribable weirdness when he saw that Cao Wei who said this looked like a teenager.

But after all, he had an upright character and was too embarrassed to say anything weird to Cao Wei. So he just tolerated this weird feeling and nodded seriously.

"What the senior brother said is that in this case, the two of you, please come to the backyard with me. There are still some things that need to be prepared. When they are ready, in the evening, we will directly open the altar and practice to communicate with the ghosts and summon the spirits!"

While talking, Cao Wei and Chen Jingyi were brought to the backyard. The first thing that caught their attention was the altar table that was placed in the courtyard to serve as a memorial table for the legal detectives.

On the table were an incense burner, a peach wood sword and talisman paper. There was also a celadon tea bowl filled with about half a bowl of water.

There is a copper basin in front of the table, a cushion is placed around the basin, and next to the cushion is a pile of paper money that has not been washed.

This is what Lin Feng said was his main job. He picked up a pile of paper money, used a ruler to rub it into a plate, and then directly twisted the paper money into a lotus shape. Then he pointed it like a sword and wiped it.

, after muttering some words, he explained to Cao Wei.

"Ordinary people burn paper money mainly for thoughts. If you want to truly turn paper money into ghost coins, there are only two ways."

"One is that the bloodline of the close relatives prays sincerely, and with sincerity, the paper money can be used to feed the ancestors. It can be turned into ghost money for the ancestors to spend in the underworld. The other is that those of us with magical power can use incantations to open sacrifices and use this kind of money to make sacrifices.

Gold paper with gold foil on it can be used to bribe ghosts and gods."

"Senior brother possesses the inner alchemy method, which can refine and transform qi to produce true energy. And using the true energy phase to enlighten, the effect is naturally far better than mine. If I say that the paper money I got from this is only slightly better than ordinary ghost money.

If so, then what the senior brother points out will undoubtedly be like gold paper, and it will definitely make those ghosts and gods happy. So I say get twice the result with half the effort, so here it is."

"this..."

As soon as he heard this, Cao Wei immediately had doubts in his heart. And to break the casserole, he had to ask about his consistent approach to academics. So he immediately asked Lin Feng.

"Uncle Feng, after hearing what you said, I don't understand something. It's all paper money, so why is there such a difference? By doing this, aren't you afraid of confusing their monetary system?"

"I only know a rough idea of ​​what's going on down there. But I know clearly that ordinary ghost money can only be used on the ghosts down there. Ghosts and gods don't like it. Even if those ghosts and gods take these ghost money,

It is just used to enjoy the ghosts. But gold paper is not the case. This thing is only circulated among ghosts and gods. It seems that it has some indescribable magical effect for ghosts and gods."

"Enjoyment? Do ghosts and gods still need this?"

Cao Wei was surprised, while Lin Feng nodded affirmatively.

"Of course, senior brother. You don't think that this underworld is just a layer of hell. After suffering, you have to drag people to reincarnation."

"Isn't it?"

"Do you believe what those bald donkeys say?"
