3. Twelve Yin Virtues
Qin Yao had no choice but to meddle in other people's business and incurred the resentment of the ghosts. He simply lowered his head and scrolled through his phone, not making eye contact with the two ghosts.
It just so happened that Lin Kuan sent back a video at this moment. He was celebrating a girl's birthday in a bar.
In the video, Kuanzi, who gained weight early in his life, was red in the face after drinking, and shouted with joy that he would come to Thailand to find Qin Yao in a while.
After replying to the message, Qin Yao raised his head again, his expression suddenly froze.
The ghost boy openly climbed onto his dining table, tilted his head, and thrust his dead gray baby face in front of him, while his unblinking white eyes stared at him sinisterly and resentfully.
Their eyes were so close to each other that Qin Yao saw clearly that the dull and gloomy face was covered with large and small criss-crossing necrotic blood vessels, which in forensic medicine is called a corrupt venous network.
Qin Yao frowned. This unlucky kid was already in the middle and late stages of Death View. If he had a knife in his belly, half of Chinatown would be stink.
Qin Yao, who has gone through the period of nervousness, entered meditation like an old monk and looked at the ghost with a professional eye.
There is also a dark red "crab"-shaped birthmark between Guizai's eyebrows, the size of a fingertip, which looks a bit weird.
Looking at each other, Gui Zai made an international gesture, almost poking Qin Yao's nose with his middle finger, opened his mouth, bared two rows of fine and sharp teeth, and issued a silent warning and threat to Qin Yao.
The light gray slightly fishy ghost air sprayed on the face, bringing with it a biting chill that penetrated the skin.
Qin Yao held his breath and remained unmoved.
Such a reaction was taken for granted as a sign of cowardice in the eyes of the ghost boy.
The ghost smiled evilly and turned around to have the idea of hot pot.
What Qin Yao didn't expect was that the nasty little devil actually put his dirty feet into the pot and started to rinse them.
Thick Yin Qi enveloped him, and Qin Yao's eyebrows jumped several times.
That's not all. After rinsing his feet, the ghost boy spat into the pot a few more times, wiped his mouth with a touch of venting pleasure, and stood up to leave.
The fire in Qin Yao's heart could no longer be contained. Sensing the ups and downs of his thoughts, the crow tattoo on Qin Yao's shoulder turned into a whirlpool and disappeared.
A surging power melted into his blood, and wisps of black energy lingered between his fingers.
An inexplicable aura of awe swelled in the chest, and there was a feeling of vomiting and displeasure.
Qin Yao couldn't help but smooth his hair, and then slapped him out!
It seemed like a casual swipe to drive away mosquitoes and flies, but it exploded with astonishing force. The ghost's eyes were bulging, he took off on the spot, and his face hit the street light pole next to him.
A large amount of gray ghost air emitted from the mouth and nose.
Qin Yao also didn't expect that his slap would knock the air out of the kid.
Shouldn't it be better to slap the air with one hand and pass through the body?
Qin Yao recalled the remaining feeling on his hand. Why did he feel like he was hit?
The original cognition was subverted again.
The miserable ghost slipped from the lamppost and fell to the ground. His body twitched as if countless high-voltage currents were running through his body.
People were coming and going in Chinatown, and it was noisy and lively. No one except Qin Yao could see the scene where he tortured the ghost just now.
Ding Ling clang...
With the soft sound of a series of steel bouncing balls falling to the ground, a few round coin-like things fell out of the ghost boy's body.
Qin Yao was a little confused.
What? Did you drop the phone bill on the floor?
After all, this was his first time dealing with a ghost. After the slap, Qin Yao did not act rashly again.
After several seconds, the half-dead ghost finally regained his breath, rolled his eyes, and the teeth in his mouth were knocked to pieces, and he weakly spat out a few broken teeth.
Also vomited out was a "stone" the size of a fingertip, translucent with a bloodshot texture, like glass.
As the crystals left the body, the ghost's figure became more illusory.
A look of fear appeared on his gray face, and the ghost hurriedly grabbed the "pebbles" and stuffed them into his mouth.
Qin Yao glared at Qin Yao with bloodshot white eyes, got up, and disappeared across the long street as his figure flickered in and out.
My companion, Loli Ghost, chased me for two steps, then turned around and turned back, hurriedly picking up the coins on the ground.
One of the coins rolled down at Qin Yao's feet. Loli Ghost just wanted to reach out, but was stepped on by Qin Yao.
The loli ghost with twin ponytails raised her face and made a fierce expression towards Qin Yao,
Qin Yao discovered a little problem. The loli ghost also had a red birthmark between her eyebrows. Unlike the annoying ghost, the birthmark between the loli ghost's eyebrows looked more like a "cow head".
Qin Yao picked up a chopstick and tapped the Loli ghost's head gently as a warning.
Knowing that there was no hope of retrieving the coin, the loli ghost fled across the street.
Under the streetlight, the ghost boy's fallen teeth turned into wisps of black smoke, which dispersed in the flowing air brought by the footsteps of passers-by.
Finally left...
Qin Yao let out a long breath and clearly felt that the surging power in his body receded like a tide, and his hands returned to normal.
Unexpectedly, the hands possessed by the black death quicksand could be so powerful and lethal to ghosts.
Surprised, Qin Yao leaned down and picked up the coins on the ground.
It was an ancient coin with a square hole that looked very old. It was dark silver and slightly cool to the touch. It was engraved with patterned Chinese characters on both sides. It was quite heavy.
Engraved on the front is "Funan Tongbao"
The reverse side is engraved with [Twelve Yin Virtues]
Qin Yao's eyes stayed on the words on the silver coin and he frowned.
The nightclub girl at the next table seemed to have heard the sound of coins falling to the ground. She looked down and saw a coin lying quietly next to her high heels.
The nightclub girl silently picked up the coins and was about to put them into her bag when the bald guy at the table came over to her.
"What is this? A steel jumper? Is it enough to buy an 'elephant'?"
The bald brother with a head full of yellow waste did not forget to take the opportunity to tease him. He looked up and saw Qin Yao also holding a coin in his hand, which he was disinfecting with alcohol wipes.
The difference is that the one in Qin Yao's hand is silver, while the one picked up by the nightclub girl is bronze.
"Let me go, buddy, you picked one up too? Hers is a copper bungee, and yours is a steel bungee."
Qin Yao didn't respond.
The bald man talked a lot after drinking. He took the coin from the nightclub girl's hand and read the text on it:
"Funan Tongbao, one or two yin virtues... What do I think it is? In our hometown, this thing is called big money. My family still has Qianlong Tongbao, Tongzhi Tongbao, Funan... Which dynasty is it? I have never heard of it."
Qin Yao's heart moved: The copper coin in the opponent's hand represents one tael of yin virtue, and the one in his own hand represents twelve taels of yin virtue...
Could this be the underworld currency circulating in the underworld?
Just when Qin Yao was wondering, the bald head made a move that made people laugh. He put the copper coin to his mouth and bit it hard. As a result, his tongue seemed to be electrocuted, "Ugh...it hurts! Bah, bah, bah!"
The bald man shouted and threw the copper coin back, "This thing is evil! It feels like my tongue has been bitten. Don't put it in your mouth!"
The Thai girl gave her bald head a blank look as if she were looking at a fool, with disgust in her eyes.
Qin Yao suppressed his laughter. He saw that the copper coin that had been bitten by the bald head was emitting a few wisps of black energy that ordinary people could not detect.
This guy has such a big heart. He dares to stuff things into his mouth before he understands them clearly. Why should I praise him?
It will be easier for both of us if we see through it but don't tell it.
Qin Yao turned on his cell phone silently, searching for answers.
Funan - an ancient kingdom in the Indochina Peninsula in ancient times. Its jurisdiction is roughly equivalent to today's Southeast Asia, including Khmer, Cochin, Thailand...
Are the Chinese characters engraved on the coins influenced by Chinese civilization?
There was limited information online, so Qin Yao didn't want to waste time, so he put away the coins, said hello to the bald man, paid the bill and left.
***
After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Qin Yao went to a nearby shopping mall and bought toiletries and bedding. He also picked out two sets of beachwear, which was convenient for daily wear when he was in the country.
On the way back, we passed by a street hot pot restaurant again.
The bald man and the two nightclub girls were still there. The three of them held up their mobile phones to illuminate the scene, sticking their butts out and wanting to press their faces to the ground, as if they were looking for something.
Qin Yao paused and joked: "Hey, boss, what are you doing? Treasure hunting?"
The bald man straightened up. He was stunned for a moment, then said "f*ck" and came forward enthusiastically, "Old man, you're back!"
Qin Yao didn't understand why the bald man suddenly became so enthusiastic.
The bald head beamed with excitement, "I'm telling you! Just after you left, a guy with a golden retriever and a big nose passed by. He saw the copper bunger that Sierra picked up and asked Sierra to sell it to him. Do you know how much he paid?"
"Sela, tell him!"
The bald man patted the nightclub girl's buttocks and asked the person involved to tell the story personally.
Tonight, the earthy little prodigal girl possessed by the koi raised a finger and said in a proud voice: "Sold for 1,000 yuan!"
"1000——Daole!" Brother Qiang said.
This guy raised his voice as if he had been given blood, attracting the attention of everyone around him.
"Old Tie, I told Big Nose that you picked up a steel bunker. He said it shouldn't be steel, but silver. The silver bunker is worth 2,000 knives!"
The bald man looked at Qin Yao with envy, and spat out:
"Big Nose asked me where you had been. I pointed him in the direction and told him that you have peach blossom eyes, are quite tall, and have a handsome smile. That guy went looking for you along the road. Didn't you see him on the way back?
