Chapter 258: Copper Coins to Suppress Ghosts, the Evolution of the Chinese Currency Abroad
As the man got angry and rushed towards the shadow, the copper coin in his hand began to emit a faint green light.
At the very beginning, the green light was extremely weak, like a firefly in the evening, and because of the lack of divine power, it flickered and seemed to be extinguished at any time.
When the man rushed towards him, the elusive person had already discovered it instantly, and his body turned mechanically and stiffly, but in an instant, he faced the man directly.
At this time, the man also saw the appearance of the figure, which seemed to be a woman, with empty and dead eyes, and two lines of blood and tears flowing down.
The moment he saw her eyes, the man felt his brain empty, and then endless fear surged into his heart, and even his body and mind were all stiff.
However, his action of rushing out did not stop, but he directly hit the female ghost by inertia.
His right hand, which was holding the copper coin and stretched forward, touched the female ghost for the first time.
"Buzz~!"
The moment the two sides came into contact, the copper coin, which was originally only emitting a flickering green light, seemed to be stimulated and instantly shone brightly.
In the green light, nine small tripods emerged, with the copper coin as the core, covering an area of one meter in radius, and the female ghost was instantly enveloped.
"Ah~!"
In an instant, the female ghost burst out with a shrill scream, and her body was instantly suppressed. She sank down suddenly, and the green light eroded her body. A puff of light smoke instantly rose from her body, becoming a little illusory.
The next moment, she suddenly burst out with power and quickly fled out.
However, the nine small tripods seemed to form an energy barrier that trapped her firmly in it. No matter how she struggled, she could not leave the one-meter radius.
Seeing that she could not escape, the female ghost's eyes flashed with viciousness, her hands became claws, and she grew three-inch long cold nails. She turned around and pounced on the man.
However, the green light on the copper coin spread and instantly enveloped the man. The female ghost was heavily bounced back as soon as she touched the man. The nails she grew were broken and then melted in the green light.
Then, the green light and the nine tripods on the copper coin began to converge rapidly, and together with the female ghost, they all retracted into the copper coin.
This amazing scene directly looked at the family of three.
"Really, really, this actually has the ability to uphold justice and ward off evil, and suppress evil spirits."
Facing the moonlight outside the house, looking at the exquisite copper coin in his hand, the man couldn't help but whispered.
Then, the man looked at the wide open door, the courtyard door outside, and the copper coin in his hand. After a little hesitation, he finally did not leave the room.
He just closed the door and returned to the bedroom bed, snuggling with his wife and children.
However, this time, although he was still a little afraid of possible ghosts in the outside world, he was less panicked.
And in a place that it could not detect, after suppressing the female ghost, the power contained in the copper coin flowed, opening up a fist-sized virtual underworld, and the female ghost was compressed into a ball the size of a ping-pong ball and was firmly suppressed in it.
Although this virtual underworld was stimulated by the evil ghost and spontaneously evolved, it was only a fist-sized ball.
However, because it was supported by the copper coin, its strength was still good.
At least it could barely carry the power of the initial stage of Qi training, and it was easy to suppress such a newly formed female ghost.
In the final analysis, although this female ghost was not something that ordinary people could fight, she was actually not that strong.
As long as the energy such as true qi was slightly stronger, it could be easily repelled or even killed.
However, after the female ghost was killed and dissipated, it would continue to regenerate because of the inherent impression of everyone.
This is where the evil ghost is difficult to deal with.
Now, with the suppression of the virtual underworld, the possibility of rebirth is eliminated. Most of the spiritual power that converges on it will be swallowed by the power of the underworld, strengthening the strength of the virtual underworld.
In this way, the evil spirits suppressed by the underworld basically have no chance to escape.
Over time, people's impression of him gradually fades, and those spiritual powers that are generated by him and pointed to him will naturally fade and disappear.
At this time, the evil spirits can actually be killed.
As for whether they are dead or alive, it depends on the dynasty and the intention of the city god and land who suppress them.
Of course, those evil spirits suppressed in gold, silver and copper coins are not in the heavenly dynasty and are not under the jurisdiction of the city god and land. If the dynasty does not pay attention to them, they can exist for a very long time.
Until their ghost bodies are erased by time and rules, they will completely die.
Let's talk about now. Early the next morning, the neighbors cautiously poked their heads out. When they saw the gate that was knocked open by the evil ghost, they couldn't help but sigh. Another family was in trouble.
These years have really become more and more difficult. Not only are there oppressions from government soldiers and bandits, but there are also ghosts rampaging at night. It's really hard to live.
As the sun got higher, someone finally tried to get closer and looked into the yard.
At this time, the family who had been up most of the night finally woke up.
The man opened the door and walked out yawning.
"Ah~, ghost!"
In an instant, a series of screams and hurried footsteps sounded outside, and everyone fled in embarrassment.
The man who had just stretched himself was frozen on the spot, looking at the fleeing people with a confused face.
After a long while, he gradually reacted and shouted with a smile:
"Hey, hey, hey, don't run, I'm not a ghost!"
After a long time of explanation, everyone finally believed that the man's family was not harmed by the evil spirit.
After knowing the whole story, everyone was shocked and begged the man's family to see the copper coin from the far east.
In the face of everyone's flattery and requests, the man finally took out the copper coin and mobilized his divine power to inject it.
In an instant, a bright green light flashed on it.
Everyone looked at the faint green light and couldn't help but doubt it. Can it really subdue the evil spirit?
Facing the eyes of the crowd, the man couldn't help but be a little anxious, and repeatedly told everyone what happened at that time.
The old village chief listened to his story and nodded thoughtfully.
"Perhaps, it is when this copper coin touches the devil that it will burst out with powerful power."
"Yes, yes, that must be the case."
After listening to what the old village chief said, the man could not help but nod his head repeatedly.
The rest of the people also showed a look of sudden realization.
"Oh!"
"So that's how it is"
"I really envy the third brother for having such a treasure."
For a moment, everyone looked at the copper coin with a touch of heat.
This is a treasure that can save lives, who doesn't want to have it?
As if he noticed that the atmosphere around him was wrong, the man's face changed slightly, and then he smiled and said:
"What are you envious of? In Alimatou, many merchants have such copper coins."
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.
"Really?"
"Of course!"
The man called the third brother nodded affirmatively.
"Okay!"
The old village chief paused with his cane and said excitedly:
"Since there are such treasures, we must buy more, so as not to encounter the devil and lose our lives"
"Yeah, yeah"
"Yes, yes! We will go to Alimatu today. No matter how much money it costs, we must buy it"
Immediately, everyone went back to pack their bags and silver and went to Alimatu together.
The man called the third brother gritted his teeth, took out four taels of silver again, and went to Alimatu together.
He wanted to buy two more copper coins, one for himself and one for the child.
Although most of the family's savings were spent in this way.
But he felt it was worth it, at least in this way, he could protect his family from being harmed by evil spirits.
With the protection of the copper coins, he could do farm work for a longer time outside, go hunting in the mountains, etc., and always earn the silver money back.
After buying the copper coins, everyone even performed a worship ceremony, praying that the copper coins could protect them from being harmed by evil spirits.
As the crowd worshipped, the surging faith gathered and continuously sank into the copper coins.
In an instant, all the copper coins began to emit green light, covering at least three inches, which was much stronger than activating with divine power.
However, that was all.
After all, they were not the people of the Celestial Empire, and they could not completely activate the copper coins at all, so they could only show some magical powers.
However, the villagers who saw this scene were already very happy.
This means that these copper coins are really magical, and it also means that their future safety will be more guaranteed.
Involuntarily, everyone had a touch of curiosity and yearning for the legendary Eastern Celestial Empire.
Even copper coins have such mysterious power.
Does that mean that in the Eastern Celestial Empire, there are more magical powers, and there is no need to worry about the harm of the devil?
For a while, everyone inquired about the Eastern Celestial Empire.
When they heard those traveling merchants say that everyone in the Eastern Celestial Empire has magical powers and every family has enough food and clothing, they couldn't help but show yearning and envy.
If only they could live in the Celestial Empire, they wouldn't have to live such a hard life now.
Gradually, as more and more copper coins burst out with magical power, more and more people were saved.
People's yearning for the Celestial Empire reached an extreme.
They attached all their beautiful visions and desires to the Celestial Empire.
In their hearts, there was the legendary holy land of heaven, the place where they yearned for life and death.
Many people packed their bags and set out on the road to the Celestial Empire for pilgrimage.
Even those who did not leave for various reasons began to hold worship ceremonies frequently to pray for the blessing of the emperor of the Celestial Empire.
As time went on, people's constant worship, yearning for the Celestial Empire, etc., made the copper coins in their hands begin to inspire more power.
Some people were even able to activate the nine tripod patterns on the copper coins on their own.
And this is already very close to the level of the people of the Celestial Empire.
This also means that their recognition of the Celestial Empire has gradually approached that of the people of the Celestial Empire.
To put it another way, they are already devout and even fanatical believers of the Celestial Empire.
On the spiritual level, the bright yellow national destiny that originally belonged to Kazakhstan over the entire village has now been stratified.
A part of the spiritual power generated by the villagers will still be transformed into the power of Kazakhstan's national destiny as before.
The other part is directly connected to the copper coins, which are continuously immersed in it and transformed into the power of national destiny.
The bright yellow national destiny belonging to the Celestial Empire rises above the copper coins of every household, turning into a very light bright yellow mist, covering the entire village and suppressing all demons and ghosts.
It is also because of the villagers' beautiful vision of the Celestial Empire and their desire to suppress ghosts and protect themselves with copper coins.
This makes these new national destiny of the Celestial Empire evolve autonomously and open up two sides, the fairyland and the underworld that can only cover the village.
Its strength can also carry the power of the Qi training realm.
When the villagers die in the village, if they have a deep yearning for the Celestial Empire, they can go to this illusory fairyland and continue a beautiful illusory life until their souls can no longer withstand the erosion of time and turn into spiritual power to merge into the illusory fairyland.
And those evil spirits who have lost their minds, if they are suppressed by copper coins again, will directly enter this underworld that covers the village.
Because the surrounding countries were powerless against evil spirits, such situations became very common in the surrounding countries, and could even be said to be everywhere.
At the very beginning, the emperors, khans, and leaders of these countries were still a little wary and worried.
However, as time passed, when they found that the Minghuang mist seemed to be just a layer of national destiny power against demons and ghosts, but would not have any impact on their own national destiny and other forces, they gradually put their minds at ease.
Even at the end, the heads of the countries themselves would give silver and gold coins as rewards to ministers, princes, princesses, etc. who had made contributions.
After all, as emperors and princes, they were blessed by dragon energy and did not have to worry about the existence of evil spirits.
But other princes and nobles did not have dragon energy to protect themselves.
Although as the descendants of the emperor, princes and princesses also had some dragon energy, they were not as good as the emperor and prince after all.
If they encountered some powerful evil spirits, there would still be some danger.
The dragon energy of these countries was not as strong as that of the Celestial Empire.
As for the national destiny, it is weaker than the dragon energy, and it is more of a force to suppress evil spirits, and it can't protect them much.
Therefore, the more treasures that can protect the body, the better.
Thanks to this, the value of the Celestial Empire's currency abroad began to rise continuously.
Copper coins flowed into ordinary people, and gold and silver coins entered the homes of royal nobles.
There are even many merchants who simply stopped buying and selling materials and resold the Celestial Empire's currency.
It is no longer a currency for trading, but has become a luxury and treasure. (End of this chapter)
