Simao looked left and right, lowered his voice and said: "Remember that this sentence can't be passed on, our business hasn't been done yet, we must not leak the bottom, it is precisely because of the old Taoist priest's strange trick buried in the shadows that the other party was caught off guard, they never dreamed that the three lepers were once the case of the county border under the rule of the old Taoist, his name and origin, and his bad deeds, the old Taoist is a clear door, and the murder case must be solved according to the law of the Qing Dynasty, otherwise even the government officials will be implicated. Therefore, the officials below the state government in Tianjin conspired to use a death row prisoner to close the case, but the old Taoist priest refused to conspire, and he couldn't resist Shangguan and his colleagues, so he simply hung up the official and retired. I didn't expect him to run into it in the mouth, for this, he also quietly stuffed the complaint into the county yamen, and not long after the three lepers were arrested, they were released again, so the old Tao concluded that the three lepers scattered all those black money, in exchange for Liu Pumao and his gang of corrupt people, let him go. This kid has been holding Xu San's thick legs, listening to Liuzi drinking too much wine to learn to me, the three lepers have said bad things about me in front of Xu San, and they are always holding back to be a dog-headed military advisor to Xu San. ”

"So you set your mind on getting rid of the three lepers? It's just an old dang, is it worth spending so much work for him? ”

Simao snorted: "Think about the things he did, he is ruthless and calculating, with him by Xu San's side, he can really harm our affairs at a critical moment, so if you want to move the old handsome, you have to cut off his wings first." There is also a ......" A subtle cold light flashed in Simao's eyes: "This kind of person didn't cultivate in the previous life, and did evil in this life, that is more than innocent, God let him not open his eyes, provoke me, just let me do the right thing for heaven and accept these wicked people." ”

Although Simao's tone was flat, Ma Qinghu still couldn't help but shiver, this time he really saw Simao's unpredictable methods, and couldn't help but add a few points to his admiration: "That day, the old way told the fortune of the sixth son, I couldn't see the flaws on the side, and the day before yesterday, I didn't get out of his set of things that pretended to be ghosts, so I wondered, what means did he use to bluff the six sons?" ”

Simao said with a smile: "Speaking of the number of roads on the rivers and lakes, you are still my enlightened master, and then I pondered carefully for a long time, you know it and don't know why, the old Taoist priest relies on the things that make a living, of course, it will not be passed on lightly, I am also looking at it while scrutinizing, only to understand a general Qi, have you heard that there is a fishy tip in the hexagram door, is there a sentence of the fairy race?" ”

Ma Qinghu shook his head blankly.

"It's normal that you don't know, this sentence is the spring ceremony of the people in their door, if the bottom is leaked, this business will not be done, so the people in the hexagram door are as tight-lipped as a bottle." Simao then explained the doorway to Ma Qinghu in detail.

The general name of the person who counts the hexagram in the hexagram door is called "golden point", and the golden point is divided into "dumb gold", "mouth gold", "gold in the mouth", "bag gold", "old Zhou'er" and so on according to different techniques. But in essence, it is a business, and it is the ability to bluff people and get the money in the other party's pocket into their own pockets. And this ability is not passed on the secret, you have to rely on the master to pass on the word-of-mouth, you have to temper yourself, once learned, that is the real kung fu to make a living, the rivers and lakes describe "flat ground to pick the cake, the opposite side to take the thief", it can be seen that the difficulty is great. This kind of ability is called "fishy" in the Spring Festival, and it is actually a routine and button that makes the other party pay for it in the end. There is a kind of hexagram in the rivers and lakes, who have never learned the hexagram Zhou Yi and other knowledge, but have only learned deception from the master, this kind of person can make a small amount of money, but after a long time, they will inevitably wear gangs, so they all rely on deception all the way to make a living, and it is difficult to become a climate.

Most of the second type of people are scholars, with no hope for their careers, and they have no other skills, they have read some books, they have rich theoretical knowledge, and they have studied Yili, porch, etc., this kind of people are very good at talking, and they can talk to each other about each other. But this kind of person has never followed the master, and he knows very little about the ability to let the other party pay for money, so he always falls short on the doorstep, and he can't make money. In the hexagram, this kind of person is called "sharp", which is half empty.

The third type of person is very powerful, he has goods in his stomach, and he has learned all kinds of deceptions and routines from the master, that is, those who connect theory with practice, although these masters are rare in the rivers and lakes, but each of them is a top person in the hexagram. They usually don't travel the world, and they don't change places with a shot, but like sitting in a business, they start to sit in the museum, and the reception is often not the likes of peddlers and pawns, but all those who are either rich or expensive, making a lot of money, and there are many repeat customers.

And Wang Zhonghe Lao Dao belongs to the third category of people, and his trick of bluffing the sixth son is also a commonly used routine in the hexagram, called "little molting", in fact, it is also a kind of trick to put it bluntly. It seems that he wrote a few brothers of each person on a note in advance, and then confirmed them one by one, without any mistakes or omissions, which can be called a miraculous skill, but in fact, the key is mastered in one writing and one question.

When he wrote the first note, it was a bluff at all, and he didn't put pen to paper, so the note was a blank piece of paper, but everyone was blinded, thinking that he was writing first and then asking. As long as you can fool the first person, the next thing is simple, when he asks the second person, what is written on the note is actually the number of brothers of the first person, and when he asks the third person, it is the number of brothers of the second person, and so on, which is equivalent to you telling him the answer, he directly makes a record, how can it be inaccurate, until he is ready to show the note, attract the attention of the onlookers by selling business, and take the opportunity to write the number of brothers of the first person. In the end, the first unwritten white strip must be thrown away, so this routine is called "little molting".

As for Wang Daoshi's technique of helping the beggar, it is even simpler, the three lepers committed crimes under his rule as a county official, Wang Zhonghe of course knows the real names and physical characteristics of the three lepers, and then made up such a few crooked poems, which seem to leave a mystery in the poem, and pretend to be possessed by the gods and write it, and the six sons were naturally invited into the urn.

After Ma Qinghu listened to Simao's detailed explanation, he couldn't help but suddenly realize: "Don't say anything about me enlightening you in the future, it's not enough for me to be embarrassed if you spread it, you are now better than blue, and you are thrown out of my eight streets." Hey, I wondered, how do you know the doorway here? Could it be that the old Taoist priest taught you? ”
