Chapter 674: The Origin of the Heavenly Master's Identity
It was not easy to find the line of Qin Tianjian Dongguan Zhengsu Xiu, who knew that Qin Tianjian pounced on the air again, turned his head and chased to the house, but he fell behind again, and everyone was also anxious.
At this time, Li Mi followed the picture of Old Lady Su, and waved his pen to create a big circle, so that these East Palace guards and spies went to the temples and Taoist ancestral halls in the area to find them, but they didn't expect to find it!
Everyone also shouted magically, but they didn't know why, Xiang Mu and Shi Chongsheng were already used to seeing it, and Zhu Changluo also knew Li Mi's ability, but he had never seen this method, so he inevitably asked.
"How did Sir know that he was hiding in General Yang's temple? What is the rule of this circle? ”
Li Mi did not hide it, and explained to everyone: "This is called the psychological safety zone, which can also be called the psychological comfort zone, in short, people who have stayed in one place for a long time will have a greater sense of security and comfort in familiar places, and if they go to unfamiliar places, they are always vigilant." ”
"Just as you are used to taking a road to the government on weekdays, you don't want to take an unfamiliar route, everyone has a place that they often do, and if you leave this circle, you will fall into uneasiness and even panic about strangeness."
"And a person's home is the safest place, so when encountering any danger, the first thing that usually comes to mind is home, with the family house as the center, according to the location marked by the old gentleman, including it, it is the safe area where Su Xiu often moves on weekdays."
"He didn't go to Qintian Prison to sign and detain, and left home in a hurry, indicating that he was extremely uneasy and would inevitably hide, and the old gentleman also said that before leaving, he had been chattering, and even thought that he had hit a ghost, so he would inevitably choose a place like a temple and Taoist temple to take refuge, so as not to be pursued by ghosts."
Regarding the psychological safety zone, everyone had never heard of it, but Li Mi explained it in simple terms, and described it in words that they could understand, and everyone suddenly understood.
The art of the human heart is the art of the emperor.
Li Mi's remarks were inferred through Su Xiu's psychological activities, and everyone listened to this explanation, and they admired Li Mi even more.
It's also a shame that Su Xiu didn't go too far, Li Mi just explained this room, and said a few more cases, which surprised everyone, and the secret agent in that room had already brought Su Xiu over.
It's just that Su Xiu's mental condition is really poor, and the whole person is already in a daze, in a trance, and talking nonsense, as if he has been stunned.
Seeing this, Zhu Changluo was also worried, thinking that he could ask valuable information from the mouth of this witness, but at this time, it seemed that it was not easy.
However, Li Mi knew that Su Xiu was frightened, and when he was stable, he should be able to regain his senses, and even if he let everyone go out first, he left Old Lady Su behind.
At this time, it was extremely secretive, but Su Xiu was willing to talk to Old Lady Su, which showed that Old Lady Su was one of the sources of Su Xiu's sense of security, and with the old lady present, Su Xiu would be much calmer.
Sure enough, after everyone left, Su Xiu was not so nervous, but he hid behind Old Lady Su and didn't dare to look at Li Mi.
"Son, this is Grandpa Li, the secretary of Xu Guogong, just came to ask you a few words, you don't have to be so frightened."
Su Xiu really believed the old lady's words, and said to Li Mi with some cringe: "Grandpa...... What does Grandpa want to ask? ”
Before Li Mi could speak, the old lady reassured him: "It's okay, grandpa just wants to ask what you saw in Zhengyangmen." ”
Hearing the three words Zhengyangmen, Su Xiu's whole body suddenly stiffened, trembled, and shook his head desperately: "I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything!" ”
Although Su Xiu is an official of Qin Tianjian, he is quite elegant, and he is also humble and polite on weekdays, neither humble nor arrogant, and his reputation is very good, but at the moment, he is not calm at all, but like a frightened child, it can also be seen how terrible the things he witnessed should be.
It's just that Li Mi doesn't understand, it's clearly just arson, why is he afraid of being like this?
Either the identity of the arsonist is too prominent, and Su Xiu knows that he will inevitably be killed and killed, and there is no life, so he is afraid, or he sees a supernatural event, so he is so terrified.
Li Mi actually prefers the latter possibility, because if someone wanted to kill someone, Su Xiu would have fled a long time ago, and it would never be possible to hide in Yang Zaixing Temple, which was not far from home.
It's just that when the fire started, it was just night, and if there were really ghosts, it should not be the time for the ghosts to walk at night, what did Su Xiu see?
Li Mi became more and more curious in his heart, and really wanted him to talk about it, but Su Xiu blindly hid behind his father, as if his intelligence was frightened and regressed to his childhood.
Li Mi took a step forward, wanting to appease him, but Su Xiu was extremely vigilant and stepped back.
Seeing that there was no way to communicate, Li Mi was not impatient, and his mind changed, and he immediately went to Su Xiudao.
"You are more stable, I am a closed disciple of Zhang Guoxiang, the fiftieth generation of Zhang Tianshi of the Zhengyi faction, and I have practiced in Longhu Mountain, if you believe me, I will help you solve disasters, how about it?"
To solve the bell, you must be a bell person, and you must have a heart medicine doctor for heart disease, this Su Xiu is already chattering, Li Mi moved out of this identity, which also gave him a sense of security, just ask in terms of supernatural events, who else is bigger than Zhang Tianshi's name in this world!
Sure enough, Su Xiu heard Li Mi say this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Li Mi: "You...... Are you really a disciple of the Celestial Master? ”
Li Mi didn't say it casually, only by letting Su Xiu believe it completely could he dispel the panic in his heart, so Li Mi took out the jade talisman from the hidden pocket of his belt.
This dark green jade talisman is a magic weapon carved by the heavenly master Zhang Guoxiang himself, which was originally reserved for Li Mi's house to protect his life, and it is also a proof of Li Mi's generation on Longhu Mountain.
Most of the officials of Qin Tianjian have an unclear connection with Taoism, and Su Xiu is even more so, when he took the jade talisman and looked at it, his face changed greatly, and he cast an inquiring glance at his father.
The old lady was originally the official son of Qin Tianjian, after returning home to retire, Su Xiucai inherited his father's business, if he talked about knowledge, the old lady's gaze was even more vicious, and when he saw this jade talisman, even if he saluted Li Mi, he was also sincerely afraid.
"I didn't expect that my grandfather was still a closed-door disciple of Zhang Tianshi, which is really admirable!"
In ancient history, there were some big families that lasted for thousands of years by relying on the prestige of the people, the recognition of the imperial court, and even the canonization of the emperor.
There are two things to mention here, one is the family of the most holy master Confucius Sage, the emperors of the past dynasties will canonize the descendants of Confucius as the Yan Shenggong, build the Yan Shenggong Mansion, and support the descendants of the saint, and the other is the Zhang Tianshi Mansion, Zhang Tianshi is also passed down from generation to generation and is admired by all the people.
Li Mi can be regarded as finding the right way, Su Xiu is a knowledgeable person, and after the confirmation of his old father, he is even more convinced, even if he kneels down, he asks Li Mi for help.
"Little Heavenly Master, save my life!"
Li Mi helped him up, gently pressed his shoulder, and said calmly: "You calm down and make it clear to me, how can I save you if this is unclear?" ”
Only then did Su Xiu stand up, Li Mi took the opportunity to bring him to the edge of the chair, watched him sit down, and waited until his breathing calmed down, and then he heard Su Xiu speak slowly.
"Heavenly Master, I have seen the eighth master......"
"Eighth master? Which Eighth Master? "Li Mi is also confused, there are many uncles in this capital, and the honorific title of lord is not uncommon in the market.
Su Xiu looked scared, pointed to the ground under his feet, and said to Li Mi: "It's the eighth master below, that's it...... It's the black master......"
In the end, Su Xiu's voice trembled, almost inaudible, which showed the horror in his heart.
And Li Mi finally remembered that the eighth master that Su Xiu was referring to was afraid that the black impermanence Fan nicknamed "Black Master" was hopeless!
Black and white impermanence is just folklore, but people in ancient times were superstitious, and Su Xiu was an official of Qin Tianjian, so he was even more convinced of this!
After going through so many things, Li Mi didn't dare to say that he was still a 100% atheist, but he didn't believe in such a thing as black and white impermanence, so he asked Su Xiu.
"What does this eighth master look like?"
Su Xiu's face was pale, and he hesitated for a long time before he said to Li Mi: "The eighth master is wide and fat, with a small black face, with this pointed official hat, he has beaten in front of the forbidden army, those soldiers turned a blind eye, he just raised his hand like this, and threw out the flames of purgatory, and the entire arrow tower ignited a monstrous fire in the blink of an eye!" ”
When Li Mi heard this, he was also relieved.
In folklore, Bai Impermanence's name is Xie Bi'an, he is an easy-going person, often smiling, tall and thin, and his face is pale, which represents good luck, also called impermanence, also known as Bai Ye, and the opposite black impermanence is the fierce god and evil, one tall and one thin, one yin and one yang.
Although it is a folklore, it also needs to be fermented and constantly evolved, and a consensus system is gradually formed, and the appearance, body shape, and ability of these ghosts are gradually formed.
In other words, the images in these legends of gods and ghosts have been passed down by word of mouth, or some literary or pictorial works, and gradually make their images full and vivid.
In the final analysis, these things are gradually cultivated by countless folk people, adding flesh and blood wings.
Since the black impermanence that Su Xiu saw was in line with the image in the legend of gods and ghosts, it showed that this was artificially faked, not the real black impermanence!
Li Mi didn't have too many doubts about this, but his focus was on the second half of the sentence, and he immediately went to Su Xiudao.
"You just said that as soon as the eighth master raised his hand, he released the flames of purgatory?"
"Exactly! Those forbidden soldiers couldn't see the shape of the eighth master at all, as soon as the eighth master raised his hand, he released a blue and blue flame, and the entire arrow tower was burning, those forbidden soldiers thought about fighting the fire, someone took water to splash it, who knew that the water was poured like this, the fire was instead high and the head was high, and the water could not be extinguished, this is not a purgatory fire, what is it! ”
When Li Mi heard such details, a lot of speculation flashed in his heart, and he immediately had a general direction.
Su Xiu continued: "Those forbidden soldiers are fighting fires by themselves, but the eighth master is watching coldly, the flames are shining on his body, I can see him looking at me, that look is like an ice knife and a cold arrow, I know that he has been eyeing me, Yang Shou is approaching, how can I not be afraid!" ”
After all, Su Xiu is just a pot from the eighth grade, far less knowledgeable than others, if Qin Tianjian and others have more contact with Matteo Ricci and are used to seeing new things, they may have doubts, but Su Xiu is just a low-level official, where can there be such a consciousness!
It's just that Li Mi doesn't understand, why can't the people in the forbidden army see this black impermanence, only Su Xiu can see it?
Is this person already colluding with the forbidden army and pretending not to be seen, or is this person having a way of hiding his body and making the forbidden army blind?
In any case, this person is the key, and if you find this person, you will be able to solve the puzzle!
Of course, seeing that the world is peaceful, but such a mysterious figure suddenly appeared, he ignited not only the Zhengyangmen Arrow Tower, but also Li Mi's fighting spirit!
