2. Improvement (II)
"Clever? What's the use, isn't the master of the master being kicked out of the sect by his disciples? The old liar snorted, and his resentment filled with smoke.
"Hehe, you forced me, Master won't even be blind to this, right?" The little liar immediately bowed his head and patted his ass, brought a bottle of good wine, and filled the old liar with a teacup. The old rivers and lakes in front of him just said that he was too much, and if he was made like this, this bureau not only put half of the rivers and lakes into it, but also put the entire rivers and lakes and half of China into it.
"If you can't see it, you won't come to Shanghai." The old liar is addicted to alcohol, and after taking a sip, he seems to forget his previous grievances.
"The third, and most important flaw: the Red Cliff Book of Heaven."
"Red Cliff Heavenly Book?" The little liar has always been very proud of this clever stroke, merging the treasure of Shen Wansan and the treasure of Emperor Jianwen, and the clues point to the Red Cliff Book of Heaven in Guizhou; In his opinion, everything is perfect.
Shen Wansan was rich in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and after Emperor Jianwen served as emperor in Nanjing for four years, he was ousted from the throne by his uncle's army; Legends about them have been spread on the rivers and lakes, and also among the people in the market. After research, the little liar was inspired by some scholars to associate the Hongya Book of Heaven in Huangguoshu, Guizhou, with this treasure legend.
The core of the scam is to suggest that the Red Cliff Book of Heaven is the key to Shen Wansan's treasure, and to find the clues to the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen. The little liar wants to get a formula for interpreting the Red Cliff Book of Heaven, and it is this formula that everyone is fighting for.
"Yes, the Red Cliff Book is your biggest flaw; That thing has nothing to do with these two people, if you can figure out what is written on it, hum ......"
The old liar didn't say anything halfway, and the little liar's heart itched: "Master, what is it?" β
"There are two words on the Red Cliff Book that you should recognize." The old crook spread out a rubbing, pointing to a place.
Zhu Tong tilted his head and looked at it for a long time, but he was still at a loss, shook his head and said, "I don't know." β
"Look closely, what do they look like?"
"Phoenix...... These two words are Phoenix. β
Zhu Tong was suddenly stunned, and two trance-like words flew in front of him, fluttering flexibly, like a living thing.
"Yes, it's Phoenix. There are masters in the people, although these two words are the deepest hidden, there are still people who see some clues. Master, I can only say that I admire. β
There are more than a dozen rubbings of various versions on the bed, which Zhu Tong has collected everywhere these days, and they are all rubbings of the Red Cliff Book printed by various dynasties; There are versions ranging from fifty "words" to more than a dozen "words", and there are also vague versions that are difficult to distinguish the number of "words". Some are obvious errors, and some are different copies caused by omissions in topography. What is the original work? Who's right and who's wrong? Each family has a reason, the little liar can't understand it, just for reference.
The old liar was referring to that blurred version.
"Look here, knowledgeable masters will see that the Red Cliff Book of Heaven is the source of the words Zhumen; If you spread the word like this, you will laugh and be generous. β
The little liar recalled the Yin characters on the phoenix mask, carefully compared the Yin characters on it, and really found two similar words on the rubbing: phoenix.
"Master, are you saying that the Red Cliff Heavenly Book is our thing?"
"Who knows that? Words are just appearances, and they are not in vain. The old liar corrected: "Carefully speaking, the Red Cliff Heavenly Book has some relationship with us; However, for thousands of years, everyone has wanted to crack these, scribbling and expanding, and today's Red Cliff Heavenly Book has long been destroyed by arrogant people, and it is even more difficult to find something. However, this is fine, such things are really handed down, and they are really useless except for making people think crankily. β
"That'...... What to do? "The little liar is a little frustrated, one is that he has shallow knowledge of himself, if he hadn't invited the old liar to check it, this scam might have become a joke. The second reason is that the old liar obviously still has a lot of secrets, but he just doesn't pass it on, so the little liar has no way at all.
The old liar reached out and grabbed his pen and wrote two lines, three sentences, and twenty-one crooked and simple traditional characters on a rubbing.
"You take it to Henan, find Mrs. Yu, and engrave these words into a tripartite seal. So, you get it? β
Twenty-one words, engraved into a tripartite seal, the body of the seal depicts the treasure map; This is what Zhu Tong had planned a long time ago, and he invited the old liar to come, and his original intention was to check this Tibetan poem made for himself; Unexpectedly, the old liar denied most of the things he had prepared.
I wish Tong Ning to read it carefully a few times, and these twenty-one words contain multiple meanings; After separating the three parts, there is still the charm of wanting to break off, and every sentence can be read: Shen Fu, treasure, Yunwen and other clues.
Even if you are in one place, you can clearly feel that this is only a part.
"Master, is there still one?"
"Yes, there are still any, but if you throw out the whole clue, will this play still be sung? Only half-dreaming and half-waking can lead people to reverie, and what you can't get is the best, just like a beauty. β
"I'm asking, what's next?" A few lines of poetry made by the old liar are full of ancient meaning, and the little liar is fascinated by it, and he is also confused by this poem.
"What's next? Not at all, that's what gave Master and me a headache for a long time before you came up with it. Your generation is the most relaxed, I think back then, when we were learning art, we complained. Four books and five classics to memorize, thirty-six words to practice, eighteen talismans to draw. Master, I was also a merry and talented man when I was young, and I exported a lot of vegetables; The price is that you don't get a good night's sleep, and if you are a little lazy, you will suffer......"
"There are so many skills, why don't you teach us?" Zhu Tong came to his senses at this time, interrupted the old liar's memories, and said hatefully.
"Those things are a lot of work, and there aren't many times when they are actually used. Boy, don't blame Master for being mean, you want to learn to be a nerd, I have no opinion; In this society, I'm afraid that if you learn that, you'll run away to be a scholar. For example, if you can really understand these sentences, you must have at least thirty years of study and learning. Hehe, who would have known that it was all made up by old liars. β
The little liar slapped the back of his head and said with a smile: "I was almost deceived by the master, I forgot, we are laying out; Master, where does Madame Jade live? What to do with her? β
"Boy, you've only been in Shanghai for a few days, and you're stupid?"
"No, Master, you are also a good hand at engraving, why do you want to find someone else?"
The old liar is indeed a good hand at curing seals, and in the past years, the old liar has done a lot of things like privately carving official seals.
"It's easy to engrave, but it's hard to get jade. Your three-party seal was thrown out as an ancient seal of the Ming Dynasty, and the seal has to be painted with your scribbled treasure map, I don't have that much ability; Only by finding Madame Jade can you make a high-end product that no one can identify; Playing with ancient jade is a profound knowledge, and the price will not be cheap. β
When it comes to money, the little crook is the least worried, he now has a lot of black money around him and has nowhere to go.
"How much?"
"Madam Yu is not very greedy, these two jade seals, one gold seal, 500,000 is estimated to be enough. Alas! The old liar talked about Madame Jade with a complicated expression, and finally sighed heavily.
The little liar was alert and asked, "Is Mrs. Yu a good old man of the master?" Master, you'd better explain everything clearly, otherwise it will be a great injustice for me to find someone to kill or deceive me. β
"Humph! Will Lao Tzu get along with Madame Jade? Hehe, she lives in seclusion in Nanyang, don't worry, as long as you can find Mrs. Yu, your bureau will be considered complete; The back are all operational details, I can't help but say, your operation plan is very thorough, even Lao Tzu won't be better, hehe, I don't see any shortcomings, there will be a lot of people in the game. β
The old liar vaguely brushed over this thorny but important question, picked up Zhu Tong's plan and flipped through it page by page, and after reading one page, he threw it under the bed; By the time he had finished reading it all, there was only a pile of scraps of paper beside the bed.
"The more people there are, the more lively it is, Master, there is another question, if you don't use the Red Cliff Book of Heaven as a cover, you must always give the treasure hunter a place, right?"
"That's just as well."
The two swindlers discussed, considered, and consulted for a long time before they determined a suitable place: Niutou Mountain on the outskirts of Nanjing.
The capital of Emperor Jianwen in Nanjing, Niutou Mountain is the most appropriate place to take Shen Wansan's legendary treasure spot; There used to be many monasteries, and the mountains were dense with forests, which was a good place to hide treasures.
"Finally, how are you going to throw it? Look for the right opportunity. "The old liar is a little sleepy, after all, he is an old man, and he has a lot to worry about.
"I have a patient in my hand, ah, he holds a secret, and there are a few people who want to pry his mouth open, and he is my mouth."
The little liar told Zhao Yongbing's situation, and his smile was very sinister and proud: "Jiang Xiaoyu, who is a five-grade Qingyang, used to be hidden by his side, if he ......"
"You are good at things, when did you learn to let others speak for you?" The ability of the little liar is taught by the old liar, it is not difficult for a dying person to speak, but it is difficult to say what he wants.
"Of course I don't have the skills, it does." The little liar nodded his head: "Master, I am now a Gu God, and I have great skills." I can see where he's hiding, just put the seal there. You must know that although Zhao Yongbing is a rough person, it is normal not to know the value of these; However, Jiang Xiaoyu knew, and the person next to Tian Gongzi also knew, they would ......"
Zhu Tong was talking about his plan, his hand was grabbed by the old liar, and in an instant, the heat surged, and his whole body was visited and examined thoroughly.
"It's not a good thing, find a way to get rid of it sooner."
"I want to too, but I can't help it, Master, your old ......" Zhu Tong looked at Master with hope.
The old liar thought about it again and again, but still sighed: "I can't help it, maybe...... Forget it, I'm going to kill you; Zhu Huang is good at these, maybe ...... You practice these two words well, one thing descends one thing, insects are always afraid of birds, well, it may be useful. β
Zhu Tong watched the old liar draw a cigar in the air, and the light blue smoke came out of the cigar, and two flying words were solidified in front of his eyes: phoenix.
This skill is really clever, condensing the smoke of nothingness in the air, Zhu Tong blew a breath, and the whole "Phoenix" flew up, but it did not dissipate, far and near, floating in front of the little liar.
For half an hour, Zhu Tong stretched out his hand and copied these two words over and over again, but he couldn't grasp the essentials; This is rare in him, learning things before, wishing children more is a little bit thorough, it has never been so difficult.
"It is said that it is already good for you to have the current cultivation at your age, but there is no shortcut to learning these two words, you have to settle down and ponder a little bit; Without a few years of hard work, I can't understand the way. Learn these two words, and you will be able to use the Phoenix Mask. It's just that no matter how you look at it, you're not a good bird. If you make something weird, don't show it up. β
After hearing this, the little liar was a little deflated, and lit the phoenix mask on his chest: "Master, what is the use of this thing?" Remove it for me. β
It is because of it that the little liar hides very bitterly in this paragraph; A man without a chest does not dare to touch a woman at all; Ye Er already obviously had the intention of making a promise with his body, and Zhu Tong just didn't dare to do it.
"What's the use? I don't know, it's been around me for 40 years, Lao Tzu only uses it to light a fire and light a cigarette, you must not have practiced the word 'Zhong' well. β
"You didn't teach me how to write at all, told me how to practice?" Zhu Tong drew a "medium" character in the air, "Is that how it is written?" β
The old liar squinted for a while, until the aura condensed by the word "Zhong" dissipated, and then he sighed: "It turns out that you are really an embroidered pillow, what is the first word that Lao Tzu taught you?" Forget, you forget. β
The first word that the disciples of Zhumen learn is, of course, the word "Zhu"; Zhu Tong has been beaten a lot for this word since he was a child, and of course he can't forget it. Listening to the old liar say this, take the "mouth" in the word "wish" as the type, and the most difficult part of the word "middle" suddenly understands.
The little liar draws the word "Zhong" in the air, and it takes him many times to grasp the key; The coolness of the chest makes me feel comfortable. When I lifted my clothes and looked at them, the invisible part was much smaller, and most of the slap on my chest was still empty.
"You kid...... Forget it, say it and mess with your mind; Cultivating the phoenix mask, you can't have any distractions, write it down, maybe you will be able to return to normal in a year and a half. Alas, I really don't know where your brain is broken, how good stealth is, but you don't want it, and when you want it, I'm afraid you won't get it anymore. β
The old liar slapped Zhu Tong on his chest, and a few bits of brilliance burst out of the emptiness, and the strong true qi stirred to protect Zhu Tong's heart. The old liar was shocked and took a step back, holding his wrist and shaking his head and sighing, as if he had thought of some glorious moment, but he didn't say it after all.
"You want to be an invisible person?" The little liar asked rhetorically.
"Hmph, what you don't know, if you can cultivate to the state of three hidden and three appearing, who is your opponent in the rivers and lakes?" The old liar sneered and ignored him again.
Zhu Tonggang wanted to say, "It's not that you don't teach well?" "But I don't think it's necessary, is that kind of kung fu really useful? What if you cultivate to the point where you are as powerful as a bamboo Taoist?
The old liar took the poem and carefully considered it again and again, revised the three words, and added Niutoushan to it, the whole scam was freshly baked, and the planning stage was basically completed.
Yin and Yang drums shake the bull and Shen Shen, the dragon head Yun Yunyin Zen Forest ,ββββ, Xinjin Holy Cave Huiquan Mountain.
"The Yin and Yang Drum is the treasure of the Daomen, as long as these three words appear on the ancient seal, they can't help but not go crazy. Before the monk Huiquan went into seclusion, he once held the Buddhist holy weapon Seven Leaf Lotus; It is said that he got it from the Tibetan Grand Lama, King Kungyalga, who was the last black-hat Dharma King canonized by the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, and he was very powerful. Monk Huiquan defeated King Kunjia Jiamo in the Wind and Snow Valley of Wutai Mountain and captured the Seven Leaf Lotus, which established his position in the Golden Buddha Gate. If the monks knew a little about Huiquan's whereabouts, not only the monks here, but also the lamas from Tibet would come, at that time, hehehehehe......"
"Hey, hey, hey, hey......" The little liar laughed treacherously with the old liar.
The conspiracy is over, and the sky is almost dawn.
"If the boss Zhu Huai is clever, he will not be planted at all, he is the same as your uncle Zhu Huang, conservative tradition but lack of opportunity, he will be a good helper; The second Zhu Yun has a long-term vision and a careful mind, but he is not bold enough and is timid to do things; You, smart and clever and not lacking in atmosphere, have armor and know how to advance and retreat, and the most important thing is that you are not selfish or greedy, and you are the one who can do great things. With the three of you brothers and sisters, I can be regarded as having an explanation for Zhumen. "When the time comes to part, the old liar is nostalgic for leaving the rivers and lakes, but now he values home more.
"What happens to Zhumen in the future, it all depends on how you plan, hehe, Lao Tzu is very relieved now."
The little liar was startled by the old liar: "What do you mean? β
"You're the head of the Zhumen now, what's the point. Do you think the phoenix mask is a toy? Anyone can take that? Whoever comes to me, I will give it? β
Zhu Tong "plopped", fell from the bed to the ground, and stared at the old liar.
