Chapter 141: Money for the Afterlife
"They're back."

"They're finally back!" In the main room, several people who were drinking tea and eating cakes saw the two returning.

In the lush backyard, on the bluestone path, a man and a woman walked slowly, one in front and one behind.

Li Rouyin didn't change much, her expression was still indifferent, she tapped the ground lightly with her bamboo stick, looking for the direction.

Lu Ran at the back, on the other hand, looked much more solemn.

It seemed that several people were a little worried, not knowing what was going on.

After all, this bamboo house is filled with gusts of cold wind, and it exudes a sense of weirdness everywhere.

"Royin." Hao Tian stepped forward, picked up the end of the bamboo stick, and led the girl into the main room.

Such a thoughtful gesture was naturally noticed by Lu Ran.

Hao Tian is indeed a good brother.

Given the moral character of Dong Ting's followers, they probably wouldn't be so attentive and caring even towards their girlfriends.

Only blood relationship can make Hao Tian "condescend" like this.

Thinking of this, Lu Ran and Hao Tian felt a little empathy.

Thinking back to when he was training with Xiao Yuanxi's team, Lu Ran was also very cautious when facing his sister's two teammates.

After all, those two teammates were going to fight side by side with my sister, through thick and thin.

He was afraid that he might have done something wrong and disturbed the harmony of his sister's team.

"I'm sorry for the poor hospitality." Li Rouyin looked at them with empty eyes.

"pretty good."

"Osmanthus cake is delicious~" several people responded immediately.

It's not just a compliment. For those who eat bamboo shoots every day, pastries really satisfy their cravings.

"Brother Lu, what's this?" Deng Yutang has always been paying attention to Lu Ran.

He discovered that there was an extra piece of jewelry on Lu Ran’s wrist?
It was a thin red rope with an antique round coin with a square hole strung on it.

"Here." Lu Ran shook his wrist. "Lord Wangquan felt that there was a connection between us, so he gave me a copper coin."

"Let me see~" Chang Ying stepped forward, lifted Lu Ran's wrist, and looked at it carefully.

Others were amazed and secretly sighed at Lu Ran's good luck.

Hao Tian's expression changed, and he looked at his sister in disbelief: "Making money often?"

Li Rouyin had no expression on her face and just hummed lightly.

"Money for the afterlife?" Chang Ying was a little confused.

Deng Yutang speculated: "Since it was given by the God, it should not be an ordinary item."

"Yes!" Hao Tian's heart was in turmoil, looking at the few people who didn't know the value of it, "This is a magic weapon!"

"what?"

"Magic weapon?" The few people finally realized the terrifying value of this copper coin.

Li Rouyin turned around silently and walked towards the bamboo steps, as if she was going back to the second floor to rest.

"Royin, this..." Hao Tian spoke hesitantly.

"You and I have no right to question Lord Wangquan's decision." Li Rouyin said calmly as she climbed the stairs step by step.

She was obviously not a qualified hostess as she just abandoned her guests and went upstairs by herself.

However, no one was surprised by the indifferent behavior of the Forgotten Spring believers.

"I never thought that I would be able to see a magic weapon in this lifetime!" Chang Ying was extremely excited. She bent down and looked at the copper coin carefully.

On both sides of the square hole, there are indeed two words printed - rebirth.

Lu Ran said: "This is just a part of the magic weapon, which can be understood as a fragment."

Chang Ying asked: "What are its effects?"

Before Lu Ran could speak, Hao Tian answered: "The Rebirth Money can absorb the souls of both humans and demons and use them for its own benefit!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

All of them were high school students, just small minions in Xijing, and they didn't quite understand the high-level concept of "ghosts".

Their knowledge is limited to the special evil magic of groups such as the Soul Breaker and the Black Lantern, which can torture people's souls after death.

"You talk too much." Li Rouyin's soft voice was heard from the bamboo steps.

Hao Tian: “.”

Lu Ran said at the right time: "This is just a fragment of a magic weapon. Its effect is not as terrible as imagined."

Deng Yutang stepped forward and asked: "Can it absorb souls?"

"Yes." Lu Ran nodded.

"Can it be used for your own benefit?"

"Yes." Lu Ran nodded again.

Deng Yutang's expression was quite interesting, and his voice became higher: "Isn't this strong?"

Lu Ran: “.”

"Awesome!" Chang Ying muttered excitedly, "My captain has a magic weapon, haha!"

Lu Ran said helplessly: "It can only absorb the souls of the dead, it cannot extract the souls of the living from the body.

It is said that it is used for one's own benefit, but it is more about refining the souls of the dead and nourishing the copper coins themselves.

As the master, I can only enjoy a little bit of spiritual nourishment."

Lu Ran made this statement because he was well-informed and even owned a demon sculpture park.

But to others, what Lu Ran said was not human language!

This copper coin has such a terrifying function, what else do you want?

"Brother Lu is quite ambitious and even wants to extract the souls of living people?" Hao Tian looked at Lu Ran, not knowing what expression to use to face this ungrateful guy.

Well, I really want to hit someone!

Hao Tian often came to take care of his sister, but in the past few years, he had only stepped into the Hall of the Dead once. Every time he worshipped, Hao Tian was outside the main hall.

Occasionally, the palace door would be open, and Hao Tian would be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the beautiful red lines and drizzle inside.

However, Lu Ran took a copper coin from the Lord God when he first arrived?
this.
Lu Ran suddenly said: "Rou Yin told me to cultivate this copper coin well, maybe I can unlock a higher-level use.

Perhaps, this copper coin can drive the soul imprisoned inside to fight for me."

Everyone: "."

What Lu Ran said was true. Li Rouyin just said this.

However, this kind of advanced usage is difficult to achieve with a fragment; it requires a complete magical weapon.

This is also why Li Rouyin asked Lu Ran to cultivate copper coins well.

To be honest, when Lu Ran heard that the Dharma instrument "Rebirth Money" had this effect, he was ecstatic!
Whether this copper coin can enable Lu Ran to control the souls of the dead to fight is no longer important.

The important thing is, when Lu Ran is able to summon and control evil spirits one day in the future, this copper coin will be the perfect cover!

Li Rouyin said it very clearly:

The money for the afterlife drives the souls of the dead to fight, but not in the form of souls.

In the vast majority of cases, souls are unable to affect the normal world.

Lu Ran had seen many dead souls on the battlefield, whether they were humans or demons, many of them were unwilling to leave after death.

In the form of ghosts, they still tried to fight, but they were illusory and any attack was ineffective.

Dharma instruments and money for the afterlife,

It will consume its own "qi" and reshape the body based on the soul imprisoned in the money.

Hmm. Can it be considered reincarnation?

However, this kind of reincarnation time is very short.

Having said that, Lu Ran is still relatively "cowardly" at the moment, and does not seek to drive out the evil spirits openly.

He just had a clue in his mind.

If someone finds out one day that they are in league with the devil,
At least I can have a reasonable explanation.

"Wow, this is incredible." Chang Ying muttered softly, and suddenly asked, "Now, is there a dead soul in this copper coin?"

Lu Ran: "We'll go out and kill a bamboo monster later, and we'll find it."

As he said that, Lu Ran turned to look at Hao Tian and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Hao, thanks for your introduction!

Without you, I would not have this opportunity, nor would I have been able to meet Lord Wangquan."

Hao Tian felt very uncomfortable.

It’s not that he wants copper coins, but from Hao Tian’s point of view, all the resources of the Wangquan Sect belong to his sister.

As a result, a bandit appeared?
Lord Wangquan actually appreciated Lu Ran so much and gave him such a generous gift.
Fortunately, Lu Ran is already a believer, so she is now taken.

Even so, Hao Tian was a little worried that Lu Ran would switch to Wangquan and take away his sister's assets.

"How can I thank you? Oh, by the way!" Lu Ran said immediately, "I almost forgot why you brought us here.

I will go up to my sister and persuade her to eat meat."

"No! No need!" Hao Tian said hurriedly.

"Huh?" Lu Ran was a little confused, "Why don't you use it again?"

"Uh." Hao Tian was suddenly stuck.

Of course he didn't dare to say it directly, "You guys should leave quickly and don't hang around Lord Wangquan anymore."

After all, Lord Wangquan appreciated Lu Ran, but Hao Tian chased him away in private. He was simply tired of living.
"Let's put it this way." Lu Ran thought for a moment and said, "We have disturbed you for a long time, and I also want to go back and study the copper coins.

Our team will first return to the nearest bamboo village to settle down.

In the next few days, I will pack more food and send it to your sister so that she can eat well on time and give her some advice. "

Hao Tian was silent, with mixed feelings. After thinking it over, he finally nodded.

No matter how many ideas he has, for this brother, his sister's physical and mental health always comes first.

"Let's go." Lu Ran called everyone and walked out of the main hall.

Not long after entering the front yard, Lu Ran remembered something, turned around and looked up at the open window on the second floor.

He shouted loudly: "Hey, you ate the duck wings!"

Hao Tian opened his mouth slightly and looked at Lu Ran who was "talking nonsense".

No!

How dare you?

"Did you hear that?" Under Hao Tian's surprised gaze, Lu Ran shouted again, "If you don't eat it, I'll eat it first!"

Others naturally thought that Lu Ran was talking about eating duck wings.

Li Rouyin knew what Lu Ran was trying to eat!
Given Lord Wangquan's attitude towards Lu Ran, if he asked, he might be able to get another string of copper coins.

Li Rouyin's heart began to bleed again.
Finally, a faint response came from the second-floor window: "Yeah."

Lu Ran smiled with satisfaction and nodded to Hao Tianshu: "Done!"

Hao Tian: ???
"We're leaving first. You don't have to see us off. See you later." Lu Ran greeted everyone and left quickly.

Hao Tian stood there for a long time before turning around and looking towards the second-floor window.

He was so dissatisfied that he couldn't help but said, "Rou Yin! I've been telling you my advice every day, but you just ignored me.

This Lu Ran has only met you once, and you just eat when he asks you to?"

A cold voice came from the window: "Oh, then don't eat it."

“No, no, no!” Hao Tian was numb. “I was wrong. Eat more.”
