Chapter 3 Section 6 Dragon Gate
In the middle of the night, Fengchen Mansion was quiet, and under the moonlight, only a VIP room in the backyard was flickering, and it seemed to be noisy inside.
Shao Hui couldn't bear Chengshan's constant provocations, he actually asked Gongsun Yu to make some flirtatious aphrodisiacs for Wu Zetian, and also encouraged Shao Hui to carry forward Xue Huaiyi's fine tradition, not punishing this kind of person, it is really intolerable!
Chengshan also retracted a moment under Gongsun Yu's gaze, and he said with a smile. "Okay, let's stop making fun of you, let's get down to business. ”
"You're the one who can make the most trouble! Now you have to pretend to be serious!" Shao Hui was not convinced at all, he suddenly remembered something. "Why did you say in front of Wu Zetian that you don't know anything, only some ordinary self-defense spells. ”
"I don't want to be too ostentatious. "Chengshan has already thought it through.
Shao Hui's image is a monk, but he doesn't know anything about scriptures and Buddhism, if he doesn't arrange some spells for him, then his role is pure waste, and it is easy to make others suspicious.
Although the spell of the Ascension of the White Sun looked magical, it was of little use to Empress Wu Zetian. Just look curious, maybe you can bluff those ordinary people, let them believe that it is true, and believe that the empress Wu Zetian's martial arts attract strange people.
Shao Hui has a very fatal weakness, he does not know how to collect spiritual power, so he cannot learn the Dharma from all kinds of scriptures and ancient books, and if someone discusses Buddhist theories with him, he will immediately be full of flaws and show his feet.
So after Chengshan explained his thoughts, he briefly explained some common knowledge of Buddhism to him, and taught him to recite the Heart Sutra. Although the 260-character Heart Sutra is not long, it is all-encompassing, summarizing the essence of the principles of the "Great Pin Prajna", as long as you are attentive to the understanding, you can definitely understand the core essence of Mahayana Buddhism, and if you are asked about Buddhist theories, you can also resist one or two.
Shao Hui is very smart, as soon as he hears it, he memorizes the entire "Heart Sutra" in his heart, he is still very curious, why did Gongsun Yu choose that kind of spell, and he really knows how to make alchemy and bring the dead back to life?
"You don't understand this, Yu Chengzi is still very smart!" Chengshan was ridiculing Gongsun Yu again, because Gongsun Yu took the lead to occupy the commanding heights.
Taoism has been good at alchemy and medicine since ancient times, paying attention to Taoism and nature, longevity and long-term vision, Wu Zetian is most concerned about health now, so as long as Gongsun Yu shows superpowers in this regard, he will definitely be valued by Wu Zetian. Chengshan was also curious, what did Gongsun Yu pour into the wine glass to make Wu Zetian feel refreshed and move freely?
"I put some sobering things in and a little bit of hormone medication. "It turns out that Gongsun Yu has already been concentrated and purified in advance, and brought some first-aid medicines from the modern society, Wu Zetian will of course feel refreshed after eating these things, but the effect of the medicine may only last for a day or two.
"What should I do after the drug loses its effect?" Shao Hui began to be curious again, he felt that Gongsun Yu had done a good job in the early preparations, and there must be a follow-up solution.
"I have a point. "Gongsun Yu doesn't want to go public now because he doesn't feel safe.
"Chengshan, why don't you say anything?" Shao Hui stopped asking Gongsun Yu, feeling that this Taoist priest was very dragged, he could speak and do things just right, and it was useless for others to force him to do what he didn't want to say.
"I'm just trying to protect myself. "Chengshan is actually very smart. There are only two types of spells that make people feel amazing, one is Shao Hui's physical spell that can go to heaven and earth, which cannot change the appearance and body, but can only make supernatural movements, and the other is Gongsun Yu's chemical spell, which makes people feel happy and healthy by taking pills.
Of course, there is also a mind-reading technique, which is not difficult for Chengshan, but he thinks that this kind of spell will never be used in front of Wu Zetian, because he knows an ancient saying. "Those who perceive the fish in the abyss are ominous, and those who hide the wisdom are in trouble."
It is to the effect that if a person's eyes are too good, whether the river is clear or muddy, and he can see how many fish there are, it is very unlucky, and the person will definitely encounter evil or blind eyes; if a person has a high IQ and is very intelligent, and other people's privacy can be judged clearly, it is not a good thing, it is a sign of impending disaster.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were many thieves in the Jin Kingdom, and there was a person named Xuan Yong who was particularly capable, and he could judge whether this person was a thief by observing other people's eyebrows, eyes, and facial expressions. The king of Jin was very happy, so he asked him to catch the thieves quickly, and he solved all the cases he took over and arrested many thieves. The king said to one of his ministers, "Xu Yong is really a talent, and there will be no thieves in the whole country in the future, and there will be no need to catch so many people." But the minister said: "To govern the world, you can't just rely on the thief to prevent theft, if the little thief is caught, the big thief will come out, and this Xuan Yong will definitely die a good death." ”
Later, the thieves got together and discussed: "Now our number one enemy is Xuan Yong, we must kill him", and the thieves secretly captured Xuan Yong and brutally killed him.
Chengshan understood the truth that was rare and confused, although the three of them were already omnipotent, they could also endanger Wu Zetian's rule. Since it can soar in the daytime, it means that it can easily run away, and it is familiar with the ability of alchemy and medicine, and it can also kill people invisibly, if Chengshan shows that he can read people's minds, then what else can restrain the three of them?
Wu Zetian is most afraid of losing power, and she must always have the ability to control the overall situation. Therefore, Chengshan said that he didn't know anything, but he was good at writing poems and articles, which seemed to be harmless, and he could sing praises for her.
"You cunning guy, push us to the forefront, but you hide behind the scenes!" Shao Hui said this, but he admired Chengshan's scheming very much in his heart. He is a kind-hearted hot-blooded young man, after returning to this era, he was still a little interested at first, but after experiencing several things, especially when he was thrown into prison for torture, he really felt the cruelty of reality, so he also began to be cautious and did not dare to talk nonsense.
"Looks like you've managed to fool them. Shao Hui thought that Chengshan was thoughtful and must have done it seamlessly.
"I don't think so. Gongsun Yu said coldly on the side.
"Why?" Shao Hui was a little surprised, Chengshan had already thought about it very thoroughly, could there be anything wrong?
"Wu Zetian's arrangement has already explained the problem. Gongsun Yu glanced at Chengshan, this self-righteous guy, Wu Zetian is not an ordinary person, she is not so easy to deceive.
"Gongsun Yu is right, Wu Zetian has indeed seen it, but he hasn't broken it. Chengshan sat at the table and took a sip of the teacup, which is a cup of Mengding green, which is produced in the famous mountain of Yazhou in Jiannan, which is now the top of Mengshan in Ya'an, Sichuan.
Legend has it that during the Western Han Dynasty, Wu Lizhen, the master of Manna Puhui Miaoji, "brought the seed of spiritual tea, planted in the five peaks", he planted seven tea trees in Shangqing Peak, "high not surplus, not born and not destroyed, very unusual", drinking the tea for a long time, beneficial to the spleen and stomach, prolonging life, so it has the reputation of "fairy tea", so the famous tea of the Tang Dynasty was the first to recommend Mengding.
"Then tell me about it. Shao Hui is also a little curious, his expression is very rich, others can know his joys, sorrows and sorrows at a glance, but Chengshan and Gongsun Yu are very calm and capable, are they also full of loopholes?
"It's all you who want to play spells to show your feet. Chengshan's expression was very calm, when Shao Hui wanted to loosen Chengshan's rope in front of everyone, if Chengshan had cooperated well at the beginning, things would not have become so serious.
Of course, spells will fail, but Wu Zetian is aware of it, she has already analyzed from Chengshan and Shao Hui's expressions that Shao Hui actually doesn't know any spells, or Chengshan deliberately made his spells fail. Therefore, Wu Zetian felt that Shao Hui was the safest person, so he arranged for him to be the host of the White Horse Temple, and at the same time, he could enter and leave the palace at will.
Chengshan said that he didn't know any spells, but Wu Zetian didn't believe it, after all, Gongsun Yu and Shao Hui both had extraordinary abilities, and Chengshan would definitely not be an idle person. Now that she has Gongsun Yu's elixir to restore her body, she will ignore Chengshan for the time being.
Wu Zetian wanted to treat Chengshan politely, because she vaguely felt that Chengshan's ability might be the most important! Therefore, she asked a few eyes and ears, that is, Shangguan Wan'er, Zhang Yizhi, and Zhang Changzong's brothers, to investigate Chengshan first, and wait until they confirmed Chengshan's ability, and then it was not too late to use it.
After listening to Chengshan's explanation, Shao Hui suddenly realized. Unexpectedly, between talking and laughing, Wu Zetian had already thought deeply in her heart, and the arrangement was very proper, which made people have to admire her scheming and the city government.
Of course, if there is no such scheming, how can you become Her Majesty the Empress?
"If she summons me, wouldn't it be easy to reveal the truth?" Shao Hui only now felt the seriousness of the problem, today was the first time they met, and there were a large number of people, he could still make up for it and get away with it. If Wu Zetian summoned him alone, without the help of Chengshan and Gongsun Yu, he would not be able to exert the magic power of the daytime ascension, not to mention, if he discussed Buddhism and Zen principles, he would definitely show his flaws. Wu Zetian, who is very smart, will definitely not let him go, so what can I do?
"You just show your beauty, men, and tricks to confuse her!" Chengshan was joking again, he felt that Shao Hui was really a bit like Xue Huaiyi, he was also strong, strong and burly, and could speak well.
"Why don't you learn from Xue Huaiyi, he can't understand literature and ink, and he can still lead troops to fight!"
"You're playing with me again!" Shao Hui was enraged again, it turned out that Gongsun Yu and Chengshan arranged this "most popular" role for him, which is what he meant!
