Chapter 20: Senior Brother
I'm in a hurry, but I still have to think of a way. According to Ma Zhenren's idea, there are many tricks that can be tried, but either they are too risky, or they don't have that condition. In the middle of the night, Ma Zhenren sat alone in the courtyard smoking dry cigarettes, carefully recalling the various crooked methods handed down by his ancestors.
If it were placed in the old society, it would not be impossible to solve a tomb. All kinds of materials are easy to get together, but in this era of smashing everything, some materials may be extinct forever. Every time he thinks of this, Ma Zhenren is a burst of regret and helplessness.
At this time, Zhang Guozhong was not idle, holding a stack of ancient books and kept looking, these books were originally written all ancient mythological stories, such as "Mirror Flowers", "Sou Shen Ji" and the like, Zhang Guozhong was not interested in these books, but at this time, he was also sick and went to the doctor, even if he could find some clues?
In a Yuan Dynasty novel "Ghost Question", Zhang Guozhong found such a story, which is a scholar named Qiao (called Qiao Sheng in the book), his father was confused by Huang Xian, and he was fascinated all day long, and he was getting thinner and thinner, and later an ascetic told Qiao Sheng that Huang Xian could be subdued with a knife that had killed people, so Qiao Sheng committed suicide in front of his father, and before he died, Qiao Sheng saw a tail on his father's ass (the yang energy of the living is very strong, and some things are invisible, but if it is before the near death, When the yang energy is declining, he can see many things that can only be seen by animals), so he wields a knife and cuts off his father's tail, and finally saves his father, but he himself dies.
This story was originally to promote filial piety, but it gave Zhang Guozhong a great awakening. The knife is evil, and the killing blade is full of resentment, naturally the evil is worse, and the ghosts and gods are also afraid of it (some families hang the sword and other things in the hall for the use of the town, that is, from this), and the theoretical core of the subjugation technique is "to control people", which is the same as the principle of evil ghosts and animals hurting people, and those things that can only be seen by normal people who are dying, Maoshan can also be seen with open eyes, so, theoretically speaking, if there is a killing blade full of evil spirits, it is not impossible to defeat the technique,
Thinking of this, Zhang Guozhong tentatively told Ma Zhenren his thoughts.
"Master, this killing blade is also used by the ancestors of Maoshan Sect, and Taoist Zhao Yaoliang of the Ming Dynasty has used it, do you think we can also try it today?"
"Try your, who will you kill? Kill you? "Ma Zhenren had actually thought of this, but at this moment, where to find the Killing Blade? Even if there are murder cases among the people, but the murder weapons are all important physical evidence, and they are placed in the public security bureau, can they still lend you to engage in feudal superstition? And this killing blade is not a hundred tried-and-true spirits, according to legend, Zhao Yaoliang Taoist priest of the Ming Dynasty was the only one who used the killing blade, what exactly is fighting is unknown, but at that time Zhao Yaoliang used an unearthed Warring States ancient blade, which was borrowed from the imperial envoy Zhu Zhengse, the right deputy capital of the Ming Dynasty at that time, although the final result was to cure the grievances, but Zhao Yaoliang was also a blade to kill people, and if the evil spirit of this killing blade is not enough, even if the blade is broken, it is in vain, so, this idea only flashed in Ma Zhenren's mind, It was immediately dismissed.
But Zhang Guozhong is a person who admits death, at this moment he and Ma Zhenren are like doing math problems, there are only a few formulas, whether they can be solved or not depends on experience. Zhang Guozhong put aside all the methods in his head, in the era of scarcity of materials, after all, the killing knife is a hundred times easier to find than such ethereal things as "Qi Foot (a kind of reptile with scales on the belly, according to the description of Maoshan Shu, Qi Foot is a reptile that haunts near the snow line of Kunlun Mountain, similar to a tropical monitor lizard, lives in the plateau area at an altitude of about 4,000 meters all year round, and has not been found since the Ming Hongwu Dynasty)" This kind of ethereal thing is a hundred times easier to find.
The next day, he first went to Li Erdan's house, and inquired and learned that Li Erdan did not have any signs of pain, but he kept flowing yellow water, blind and deaf, and did not delay eating, drinking, and sleeping, and after confirming that Li Erdan's life was not in danger, Zhang Guozhong trotted all the way home (Zhang Guozhong at this time, physical fitness and Olympic marathon runners basically have a fight, Li Village is about 25 kilometers away from the city, Zhang Guozhong trotted all the way to the city).
"I said brother, it's too nonsense for you to ask for this thing..."Zhang Guoyi didn't know why his brother's request at this time, "Even if it's a murderer, it's not my turn to arrest it." ”
"Don't you know the Public Security Bureau?"
"It's useless to know, there's no murderer, and the Public Security Bureau doesn't have that thing... But wait, let me think..."
After pondering for a while, Zhang Guoyi took Zhang Guozhong to an old residential building, at the beginning, living in a building was a high-level treatment, but now it seems that Zhang Guozhong's family has obviously been copied countless rounds.
"This is my brother." Zhang Guoyi's face was expressionless, but an aunt on the side showed a stiff smile, "Comrade Xiao Zhang, thank you last time..."
"Aunt Chen, I'm here this time, I want to ask you for a favor, if you agree, I'll do Lao Liu's business."
"You... Can you release Lao Liu...? ”
"I can't promise to release it, but at least I promise to keep him out of sin."
After Zhang Guozhong's description, this Aunt Chen didn't understand it, but since Zhang Guoyi ensured the safety of the old man in prison, he couldn't care so much. "Okay, let's go see him now, I'll persuade him! …”
Along the way, Zhang Guozhong learned that this old Liu Tou used to be the secretary of the Tianjin Calligraphy Association, and loved to collect antiques and antiques, and the father of the old Liu Tou was Liu Ziwei, the comprador head of Tianjin Wei in the late Qing Dynasty.
In the early years, characters like Lao Liu Tou did not have a peaceful life, * The second year's home was copied, and in several major campaigns since then, his family was also listed as a key target, but no matter how the Red Guards rummaged through the cabinets, there was nothing except a few calligraphy and paintings and a few broken books, this old Liu Tou was also a species, no matter how he was fought, he didn't say a word about where his antiques went, until he was arrested and imprisoned for the crime of reselling cultural relics, and he was still tight-lipped.
Hearing Zhang Guozhong say that someone had used the ancient sword of the Warring States in ancient times, this Zhang Guoyi also wanted to ask Lao Liu Tou if there was an ancient sword, so he had this trip to prison.
Zhang Guoyi's internal relations in the prison have been arranged, and I don't know where this kid got the letter of introduction from the District Revolutionary Committee.
"I don't have any ancient swords and ancient swords, you can find someone else." Smoking a cigarette, Lao Liu Tou still didn't care.
"Master Liu, I really want to save people now, I hope you can help me..." Zhang Guozhong has nothing to say, so he can only tell Lao Liu Tou about Li Erdan's affairs as it is.
"Do you know Maoshan technique?" Old Liu Tou didn't care about what Li Erdan was descending to the tomb, but focused on the Maoshan technique that Zhang Guozhong said, "Then let me ask you, the qi of heaven and the evil of earth, sit in Si and solve the confusion?" The meaning of this sentence is that after absorbing the aura of heaven and earth and the yin qi of the earth's leylines, the animals are making trouble in the world, how to crack it?
How did this elementary question stump Zhang Guozhong? "The snail is used to cover the throat, and the veins of the nine techniques are blazing," Zhang Guozhong thought for a while, and added: "If there is a rush, it will be separated by withered willows, and the number of dead will be burned with real fire." This means that if the spirit of the animal wants to break through, it will cover the wound with a withered wicker, wait for a stick of incense, and then burn it with real fire.
Speaking of this, Lao Liu's eyes suddenly lit up, "The qi of the seven veins comes out: Xinyang, Huiding, Dantian, Zuyang, Yanshou, Tumen, and Dingtong." (This is a passage in the mantra of the central vein of Maoshan Technique, where a person has seven qi and must move from these seven organs.) )
Zhang Guozhong said: "Xinyang is in Qin, Huiding is in the roundabout, Dantian is in Chong, Zuyang is in the cover, Yanshou is avoiding, Tumen is surging, and Dingtong is not taboo" Zhang Guozhong said this paragraph is the second half of the paragraph that Lao Liu Tou said.
"Who taught you?" There was a hint of weirdness in Old Liu's eyes.
"Ma Chunyi (Ma Zhenren's real name is Ma Chunyi)"
"Senior brother, can you really want to get me out?" Lao Liu Tou showed a hippie smile that was the same as Ma Zhenren, and the folds were connected from the corners of his mouth to his cheeks.
As soon as Lao Liu Tou's words came out, even Zhang Guozhong was depressed for a while, how could there be an extra senior brother out of thin air? At this time, Zhang Guozhong remembered that when Ma Zhenren was training him to open his eyes, he once said that there was a senior brother who was not enlightened, and the precious brother who opened his eyes in an hour actually took a month, could it be him?
Thinking of this, Zhang Guozhong carefully looked at Lao Liu Tou, worthy of being Ma Zhenren's apprentice, the dirty degree of his beard and hair is a fight...
