"When I was poor, I was poor, and my parents died. Exiled to Linru County to settle down, when he was 16 years old in the county to cut wood in Linru Mountain, he met the ancestor who lived in seclusion in the mountains by chance. The ancestor had a fate with me, so he accepted me as a disciple and followed him to cultivate immortals and learn the Tao. ”

Shi Jingzhong looked at the candle flame, quietly recalled the situation when he was young, remembered the pain and suffering he suffered when he was young, and his heart was very angry.

"Ten years later, the ancestor died of illness in the mountain, I lived alone and lonely, so I was born with the heart of the world, so after a year of filial piety, I went down to Linru Mountain to travel in all directions. In ten years, I also learned some medical skills and some Taoist methods when I followed the master to collect medicine and alchemy. Eliminate disasters and difficulties, and talk about making a living. ”

Shi Jingzhong's expression was very unnatural, although he had said this experience countless times, but every time he said this paragraph, his heart was always pounding, and his face was always hot. Because, he is the only one in the world today who knows that these are all lies, and they are all lies made up by himself.

At the age of sixteen, he went up the mountain to cut wood, and was taken in by the hermit Zhao Changfeng, but before the age of sixteen, Shi Jingzhong was no longer an innocent teenager, and the wandering in the market taught him many bad problems, prostitution and drinking, stealing and robbing almost everything. The reason why I went up the mountain to cut wood, it was because of a recent case that happened and I was arrested by the government, so I went into the mountain and built a shack to hide for a while.

Shi Jingzhong was also handsome when he was a teenager, with long feet and hands, clear bones, and he looked quite handsome. Zhao Changfeng fell off the cliff when he was collecting medicine on the cliff, Shi Jingzhong happened to pass by and saved him easily. After sending Zhao Changfeng back to his residence, Shi Jingzhong kowtowed to his face and begged to be taken in, Zhao Changfeng also felt that he had saved his kindness, and at the same time, seeing that this young man had a tragic background and was also smart, he agreed to accept him.

However, Zhao Changfeng can investigate the good fortune of people, and can subdue demons and eliminate demons, but he has not seen through the details of the young man in front of him. Shi Jingzhong was well-behaved at the beginning, following Zhao Chang's style of medicine and alchemy, chopping wood and carrying water. Get up early to smell the morning dew, watch the colorful glow at night, and the days are quite peaceful.

But Shi Jingzhong's true nature was gradually exposed, and he slowly got tired of such days, and his mood was restless. One day, Caiyunzi, a Taoist friend who lives in Shannan, came to visit, and it was a middle-aged female Taoist priest who lived in seclusion. Although Caiyunzi is old and ordinary, Shi Jingzhong, who has lived in the mountains for a long time, has not seen a woman for several years, and looks at her like a fairy. During Caiyunzi's stay, Shi Jingzhong was courteous, and his words and actions were quite indecent. The female Taoist priest was very angry and informed Zhao Changfeng of this, and Zhao Changfeng angrily reprimanded Shi Jingzhong and punished him for kneeling for three days to introspect.

Shi Jingzhong's scandal was revealed, and the violent anger in his heart was out of control, and the desires and malice that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time began to germinate. Taking advantage of the game between Caiyunzi and Zhao Changfeng, he put drugs in the tea bowls of the two. Cai Yunzi and Zhao Changfeng were fascinated by double drugs, Shi Jingzhong wantonly insulted the female Taoist priest in front of Zhao Changfeng, Zhao Changfeng was already old, and he was angry and died on the spot.

Shi Jingzhong detained the female Taoist priest by his side, abusing him in every way, the female Taoist priest was strong and resisted very fiercely, provoking Shi Jingzhong to use all kinds of inhumane means to deal with her, and when he tortured the female Taoist priest, Shi Jingzhong had a different kind of pleasure. This is also the reason why Shi Jingzhong likes to use all kinds of perverted behaviors when venting on women later. His little Taoist disciples are also proficient in this way.

A month later, Shi Jingzhong found that something was wrong, he found that someone in the Shannan Taoist Temple had come to look for the female Taoist priest's whereabouts, and the female Taoist priest had left for too long and did not return, which aroused suspicion. So Shi Jingzhong didn't stop doing it, killed Caiyunzi that night, burned the master's thatched hut, and went down to Linru Mountain in the dark.

With the disguise of a Taoist priest, the life under the mountain is also free. followed Zhao Changfeng and also learned some alchemy techniques, and also learned Taoist methods, and he also mixed a full meal among the people. After more than ten years of wandering in the rivers and lakes, Shi Jingzhong actually didn't get anything, and as he grew older, he was very angry in his heart. Facing the world of flowers, Shi Jingzhong wanted to break his head and think of something, but found that he couldn't do anything.

A few years ago, Shi Jingzhong came to Chang'an with several apprentices, in the face of the prosperous Chang'an City, Shi Jingzhong made up his mind to achieve a career, his brain was enough, and soon he found out where the needs of the wealthy families in Chang'an were. So with his ingenuity and intelligence, Shi Jingzhong secretly made his own aphrodisiac medicine, and this was also thanks to the teacher who had been killed by him for more than 20 years. Zhao Changfeng is the author of drug cheats, which contains drug records about aphrodisiacs, but Zhao Changfeng has never studied these, but he has been studied by Shi Jingzhong. From this point of view, Shi Jingzhong is also better than the blue, and has completed part of the inheritance of teaching.

But he really gained a firm foothold, but it was after meeting Yang Shenjin.

Shi Jingzhong under the candle flame was in a trance, and his expression was a little sluggish. Recalling the past years, Shi Jingzhong will feel more or less frightened and unnatural. The longer the secret is hidden, the greater the pressure will be on the person who keeps the secret, and Shi Jingzhong is obviously under such pressure.

Wang Yuan looked at Shi Jingzhong's confused and trance face, although he felt strange, he didn't know why he was like this. Just urged: "What happened?" You came to Chang'an after you went down the mountain? Did you meet Yang Shenjin? You hit it off at first sight? ”

Shi Jingzhong was stunned and came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "Poor Dao has been in Chang'an for a year, and he is just making ends meet, as for getting acquainted with Yang Shangshu, it is a chance." In the winter of the second year of Tianbao, it snowed heavily. On that day, Poor Dao passed in front of Yang Shangshu's mansion with his apprentices, and it happened that Yang Shangshu was supervising the servants at home outside the mansion to remove the snow. Poor Dao stepped forward and said a few words, and got acquainted with Yang Shangshu. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "It's that simple? Yang Shenjin befriended you so easily? Although I know that Yang Shen is intoxicated with Taoism, I am afraid that he still disdains to make friends with Daoists like you. ”

Shi Jingzhong shook his head slowly and said, "You naturally don't know, if Poor Dao doesn't show his ability, how can Yang Shangshu take care of me." In fact, I only said one sentence, I told Yang Shangshu, 'The snow does not need to be cleared, and it will snowfall for five days in a row, and it is useless if the snow clears, so why not wait for the snow to stop and then clean up.' ’”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Is that based on this sentence?" ”

Shi Jingzhong glanced at Wang Yuan with disdain and said: "When Poor Dao said this, it had been snowing heavily for three days in Chang'an City, and it was when the sky was clear and the snow melted. Everyone thought I was talking nonsense, but in the evening, the snow began to fall heavily, and it fell for five days and five nights, and the snow was knee-deep. On the morning after the snow stopped, Yang Shangshu ordered someone to find the poor road. ”

Wang Yuan was surprised: "You predicted so accurately? Yang Shen must have gone to you because of this matter. ”

Shi Jingzhong said with a smile on his face: "Of course, when you occupy the sky, it is also my Taoist method, and Yang Shangshu is a person who knows the goods, how can you not come to me?" ”

Wang Yuan frowned and looked at Shi Jingzhong and said, "Can you really predict the time of day?" But I didn't believe it. ”

Shi Jingzhong didn't speak.

Wang Yuan said coldly: "I know you don't have that ability, tell me how you did it, otherwise I will ask you to predict whether I will cut off your fingers or toes." ”

Shi Jingzhong scolded angrily: "You will be punished by God." ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "But you will receive my punishment before me, say yes or not?" ”

Shi Jingzhong sighed and said: "That is the method taught by my master, the land in the north of Rushan Mountain, melted into the bottle of turbid wine, fog and fog in the morning on a sunny day, ice and ice, snow and snow. I really don't know why. ”

Wang Yuan was surprised: "Is that really the case? ”

Shi Jingzhong said angrily: "What did the poor Dao deceive you? Linru mountain soil is very useful, every year I will go back to get some soil, this is a small use, the big use is used to refine my elixir, it must be this soil. ”

Wang Yuan was noncommittal, but he also felt that the wonders of the world were everywhere, maybe it was a strange reaction, but he didn't know it. Yang Shenjin believes in Taoism, and when he meets a Taoist priest who predicts the weather so accurately, he naturally feels very magical, and it is not strange to send someone to find him.

(PS: There is a device for predicting snow on the Internet, the raw materials are potassium nitrate, ammonium chloride, camphor, alcohol, water, etc., which is said to be a method used to predict the weather in previous navigation, but I have not tried it.) The method described in this chapter is based on this, and if these components are present in the soil, it may be possible to predict success. But whether it will work, I don't know, it's just a novelist's words, don't dig into it. ）
