The Mystery of Disappearance Chapter 16: Li Tiezui's Death (1)

It turned out that when Li Tiezui was in a small broken temple outside Shenbei City with me that year, he secretly took advantage of my sleep and gave himself a hexagram to ask about the future, and the hexagram was revealed

"It's not good to defend the good luck and go away, and the northeast is auspicious", Li Tiezui pondered, the northeast is outside the border, and now the army is in chaos, looking at this hexagram, maybe he can achieve a career in the troubled times?

Even if the career can not be successful, if you can make a pen and make money, the second half of your life is worry-free, and it is not in vain to this hexagram, after thinking about leaving me a word and going straight to the outside of the gate, after several tosses finally arrived in Shenyang, I don't know if he is the tide of his hands or God intends to play him, more than a month has passed, it is not like that at all, life is not familiar, everywhere is troubled, at the beginning of the street set up a hexagram stall, there are a lot of people who came, but there was no money, at that time Shenyang several forces mixed together, there were Japanese, detective team, special high-tech, Northeast Army and even Xiangma, The ruffians and hooligans are all over the street, Li Tiezui's hexagram is not punctual, not allowed, often smashed stalls, reported that the patrol house is also mud cows into the sea, and finally there is a pretense left, so I have to walk the street and ring the bell, but Li Tiezui's iron mouth is by no means a waste of fame, he has the ability to say that the dead are alive and the living are dead, and when the business is not good, he will rub the gods and ghost novels such as "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", "Zi Buyu", and "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang" together, and then add yourself inside, sit on the side of the road, and tell people half stories and half commentaries. At the beginning, he was nothing more than bragging, in order to attract business, people are also idle, listen to a lively, but how to think, slowly listen to the story more and more, he saw that the opportunity came, and it was not in vain, a half of the big man's collection, when there were many people, there were even ruffians who took the initiative to maintain order, just to listen to two more paragraphs, so Li Tiezui relied on telling stories to become famous in Shenyang City, and occasionally there were teahouses to come to invite.

As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, on this day Li Tiezui dispersed as always, collected his belongings, and went straight to the tavern, which is called

"Cyclamen", just next door to Li Tiezui's residence, he is not on fire, three meals a day, at least two meals are here, as soon as he enters the door, he goes straight to the innermost table, the young man saw him coming, and asked: "Old rules?" Li Tiezui didn't speak and nodded while walking, and after a while, half a catty of white dry, three taels of white skin noodles, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of soft sliced pork were on the table, Li Tiezui first mixed noodles with vegetable soup and ate eighty percent full, and then drank wine with peanuts, at this time, he listened to the noise on the street outside the door, and then a team of Japanese soldiers with guns rushed into the tavern, and the guests at other tables saw this formation, and were frightened to drill under the table, Li Tiezui was behind the back door, he was crawling to the back door, and suddenly found that there were two more legs in front of him, Trembling and looking up, I saw a man standing in front of him, about fifty years old, with a shiny and slippery face, wearing glasses, a suit and leather shoes, carrying a leather bag, like a teaching gentleman, this man smiled and helped Li Tiezui up and said: "Old man, frightened", with a wave of his hand, the Japanese soldiers drove out the rest except for the guy, and then withdrew outside.

The man helped Li Tiezui to sit back in his seat, beckoned the guy to put on the wine glass and chopsticks, poured himself a glass with a smile, and asked, "Sir, is Master Li who is known as Li Tiezui?" ", Li Tiezui said in his heart, who is this?

Why do you speak with this accent? But he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and said respectfully: "The old decay is exact, dare to ask you if you are looking for the old decay is fortune telling or looking at yin and yang?" The man smiled and drank all the wine in the cup, and then said: "I am looking for the master this time neither fortune nor yin and yang, but I want to ask the master about a person, I don't know if the master knows", as soon as the words were finished, two rolls of Yinyang were gently placed on the table, and then pushed both hands in front of Li Tiezui, and when he saw this shot, Li Tiezui's heart was about to pop out, and his heart said that it doesn't matter if you ask this person whether I really know or not, I must know this Yinyang.

Although the heart has blossomed, on the surface he pretended to be calm, only swept slightly from the corner of his eyes, and then still calm, silently sandwiched peanuts, eating slowly, the opposite one looked, and took out a small red cloth bag from the bag, put it in front of Li Tiezui, slowly opened layer by layer, in fact, just opened two layers, Li Tiezui had already bitten his tongue, when all presented in front of him, his thighs had been pinched and swollen by himself, three golden

"Little Yellow Croaker" neatly placed on the table, the person opposite smiled and said: "Master don't be too little, these are just meeting gifts, if the master can really tell me a little bit of the situation of the person I am looking for, I still have six gold bars here, all of them are given to the master, and I hope Master Li will not dislike it" Li Tiezui pretended to stroke his mustache, nodded and said: "Mr. is also a knowledgeable person, willing to give, helping others is the greatest joy of Li's life, and Mr. made a special trip to visit, it must be an important thing, The old man must know everything, but he doesn't know who the person the gentleman is asking"?

"Li Wanshan, do you know, sir?" After listening to Li Wanshan's three words, Li Tiezui slapped the case and asked, "Who are you?"

, The man smiled and said: "Master don't be impulsive, my name is Higashino Heihachiro, it seems that I didn't find the wrong person, and I asked Master Li to tell me about this Li Wanshan, and I am grateful", Li Tiezui wanted to throw his hands and leave, but he looked at the gold bars on the table, thought about the Japanese soldiers outside the door and the bayonets, weighed it, and finally fell back to the stool, and said weakly: "Since you found me, you must have known that Li Wanshan is my master, but I was driven down the mountain as soon as I learned the fur, since then, let alone the master, Even the other brothers and sisters have cut off the message, you see that I am now mixed like this, that looks like his apprentice Li Wanshan, so you are looking for me to find the wrong person", Dongye laughed and said: "Master Li is too modest, as far as I know, Master Li was once kicked out of the mountain gate, in fact, because he violated the door rules and peeked at the Yin Array, right?" Li Tiezui asked in surprise after hearing this: "How do you know?" Dongye shook his head and continued: "Li Wanshan has been dead for many years, as far as I know, among the only remaining disciples of Li Wanshan, you are the only one who has seen the Yin Array, right", Li Tiezui smiled bitterly and said: "That's all dragon slaying techniques, a bunch of waste, I knew that today it is better to learn more auspicious divination, family feng shui and other practical", Dongye said: "This time I came, in fact, I wanted to ask Mr. to help me go to see a bureau, and invited a few so-called masters to see it, all of them said that it was the Yin Array, but it was limited to identifying the Yin Array, and I didn't know anything else, So this time, I specially invited Master Li to go out and take a trip in person, as for the remuneration, rest assured, these are just meeting gifts on the table, and there are five gold bars as a deposit, and then ten will be sent after the matter is completed, how about it? Li Tiezui knew it was a set as soon as he heard it, and hurriedly played Tai Chi: "Oh, I don't know where this formation is?" ",:"Shanxi Taihang Mountain",:"This is not close, go back and forth, it is inevitable to toss on the road, the old body is not as good as a day, the leg hurts when it rains on a cloudy day, Mr. Dongye, do you think this is good?" You give me the picture of this array, and I look at the diagram of the array, and I only take half of the money, how about it? Dongye smiled and said: "It's okay, Master Li, since it was said that it was a meeting gift, you accept the money first, whether you go or not, we are all friends, think about it for a night, and I will come to you again tomorrow morning", after speaking, he got up and checked out the cyclamen, Li Tiezui put a bag of things on the table, turned around and went out the back door, planning to run home to pack up his things, and go out of the city overnight, but as soon as he went out with his front feet, two Japanese soldiers set him up on the left and right,

"Send" home, and then to the door of a stop, to show him the door, Li Tiezui this time is really dumbfounded, a huge courtyard originally lived in four or five families, but now he is left alone, the other families have been driven out when he is eating, a look at this situation, Li Tiezui is all hope, simply find a hoe to bury the gold bar under the east wall roots, and then dig out a small wooden box under the window edge of his house, this wooden box was driven out of the mountain, the senior brother secretly gave him, inside is a pill, it is said that once taken, Within a month, the breath and pulse are weak and imperceptible, just like a dead person, this medicine must be solved with children's urine, and it must not exceed a month, otherwise it will really not wake up, which is used to save life in critical moments.

Li Tiezui packed it closely, and the things used to lay the burden well, lying on the kang were like numbness, this trip must be more auspicious and less auspicious, although he was alone and had nothing to worry about, but he didn't expect that his lonely life and old age would end up like this, and he couldn't help but sigh and weep.
