Chapter 36 The avenue is ruthless

Li Sanyuan and Yun Guan knew something they wanted to know, so they said goodbye and left in a hurry, and Chen Xiong's senior brother also went outside to guard, leaving only Xu Changqing and Chen Xiong in the house.

"You really want to go north to the capital in May to make that troubled trip, are you sure that you will succeed?" the room was quiet for a while, and Chen Xiong said worriedly.

"Yes. Xu Changqing nodded and said, "Xuangang Heavenly Demon hates me to the bone, if he is allowed to borrow the power of the heavens and form a magic pill, I will be the first to find it." At that time, the Nine Dragons have been completed, and his cultivation and luck will definitely be above me, and then I am only afraid that I will be more auspicious and less auspicious, so it is better to start before he becomes a force. And there is another reason that if the fortunes of the Qing Dynasty can be continued, then the Chen family will be over, Yuan Shikai will also be over, and even my people in China may all be destroyed in the hands of the Qing court. Although I am not a saint, this is the land where I was born and raised, and I must not let it be destroyed in anyone's hands. ”

"Since you have already decided, I will not stop you," Chen Xiong nodded slightly, and said, "At that time, I will also go with my disciples to help you, and by the way, I will meet those immortal Buddha authentic masters." ”

"No, Elder Xiong, you can't go!" Xu Changqing shook his head and said with a strange expression: "There will be no masters of the Zhengyi and Quanzhen Dao at all, and even if there is, it is an outer disciple of the Great Dao who has not yet become a great way." ”

"But you ...... just now" Chen Xiong's expression was slightly stunned, and he immediately showed a sudden expression, and said, "You deliberately said that in front of them." ”

"Yes, I said that on purpose!" Xu Changqing didn't deny it, nodded, and said, "The so-called Great Dao is ruthless, and those cultivators who are really close to the Great Dao are all selfish and ruthless. Whether it is the Dao Gate or the Buddha Gate, in their eyes, it is more important to cultivate the Jindan Avenue and the Golden Body of Buddhism than anything else, if they go to Beiping to stop the Xuangang Heavenly Demon from rebelling against the sky, then they will be involved in the cause and effect of the catastrophe, and even if they close the mountain and return to seclusion, the catastrophe will come to the door. In their eyes, the world and us, who are all ants, will sacrifice their own opportunities to attain enlightenment for the sake of ants? If there is no one to help, it will be difficult for me to stop the Xuangang Heavenly Demon's actions against the sky, so I will use words to deceive those lower ninth-rate side doors, so that they think that there will be masters of the Immortal Buddha Sect to go, and they can fish in troubled waters, but they do not know that they are the pathfinders for me to lead away the demons. ”

Chen Xiong frowned, although he didn't like those low-grade side doors who fooled the people, but it was difficult to accept them in his heart like Xu Changqing. Seeing that Xu Changqing seemed unwilling to continue talking, he changed the topic and told Xu Changqing some things about the Chen family in the past year and a half.

Under Xu Changqing's careful arrangement, the method of dividing luck and fortune went very smoothly, and although the Chen family suffered losses in some businesses, most of them remained profitable, especially in Europe, where the spice and medicine business was extremely prosperous, while the United States, on the other hand, was struggling because of the anti-Chinese forces in the United States.

After listening to Chen Xiong's words, he carefully calculated the luck of the Chen family in the United States, and then said: "Trees are dead, people are alive, since the United States is so anti-Chinese, we will move our business south to South America." Although the luck of South America is far inferior to that of the United States, it can match the current luck of the Chen family and should be able to make a difference. ”

Chen Xiong silently wrote down Xu Changqing's words, and then asked with concern: "There are still three months left before the fifth day of the fifth month of May, are you going to stay in Chenjiachong and continue to cultivate, or ......?"

"No, I'm going to leave Chen Jiachong and go north on foot!" Xu Changqing shook his head and said: "With my current cultivation, even with the help of those side doors, there is only a thirty percent chance of winning, I hope that this hike to the north through Guò can have the opportunity to untie the knot in my heart and improve my cultivation to the level of retreating qi and liquid." ”

"So is there anything our Chen family can do?" Chen Xiong deeply felt that Xu Changqing's personality had changed a little after the mountain closure this time, and he had become more active about some things, so he wanted to help and asked.

Xu Changqing thought for a while and said: "If you want to help, the best thing is to fully fund the Revolutionary Party and the Beiyang New Army, so that their luck can suppress the luck of the Manchus, so that I can use my luck to sabotage the Kowloon championship." ”

"Okay! I'll send a letter to Deschamps and ask him to arrange a letter in Shanghai. Chen Xiong stood up and said, "You can also freshen up and change your clothes......!

"No need," Xu Changqing smiled, stood up, walked outside, and said: "This is just to hide people's eyes," said and walked outside the door, turned to Chen Xiong and saluted with fists, and said: "Don't send it away, I hope we can survive the catastrophe on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, if there is bad news in Beiping, your Chen family will immediately give up all their industries in China and move overseas to avoid this disaster." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Chen Xiong to return the salute, he used the ghost magic body method, turned into a phantom and shuttled through the night sky, and disappeared in an instant.

Looking at Xu Changqing's way of leaving, the old Taoist priest behind Chen Xiong couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that cultivators also have such good skills, rare!

At this time, Chen Xiong, who was frowning, suddenly spoke: "Senior brother, if I go back to the mountain gate and ask Elder Lin to come out of the mountain......

"Don't even think about it!" The old Taoist priest turned his head and glared at Chen Xiong and said: "There are only twenty-seven people in our Immortal Buddha Authentic Sect who can really approach the Jindan Dao, although it seems that there are a lot of people, but the sects that are really divided into the following sects are too few, and there is less than one sect. Since the Song Dynasty, no one has achieved Jindan Avenue again, and now Elder Lin has completed the retreat of qi and liquid, and it is only one step away from Jindan Avenue, not to mention that Elder Lin himself does not agree, even if it is the head of the sect, he will definitely not let Elder Lin come out to be contaminated with cause and effect, and I believe that other Xuanmen authentic sects are the same. Besides, with their cultivation, how could they not see the intentions of Xuangang Heavenly Demon, all of them did not stop it from the beginning, they just didn't want to go out of the mountain to be contaminated with cause and effect. Mr. Xu has a very right saying, the avenue is ruthless, they are all ruthless people, how can they do affectionate things!"

"Could it be that he just looked at this kid Changqing and went to die alone?" Chen Xiong's face was full of grief and indignation, and his heart was full of disgust for those who cultivated the Great Dao, and at this moment he felt that they were not as good as those ninth-rate side doors.

The old Taoist priest sighed and said: "Well, right now, the demons are dancing wildly, why should I live here, waste all my learning, on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, I will also go north!" said and raised his hand to block Chen Xiong's stop, and said with a firm expression: "I have nothing to worry about, I can't compare to your Chen family's great cause, the so-called no worries, living is to be happy, although this matter cannot be famous in history, but it is enough for me to know that I have not lived in vain in this life." I'm going to go with a few more old guys who have had enough to live, one more person, one more force, and don't let those devil cubs underestimate us. ”

After speaking, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the Chen family's house without looking back, leaving only Chen Xiong looking at the back of the old Taoist priest leaving with a complicated expression.

Wuhan is divided into two districts, Wuchang and Hankou, because it occupies the water conservancy hub of the Yangtze River, so it has always been a place of contention, and it is also the gathering place of the country's industry, and its prosperity and liveliness are no less than Shanghai. The launching terminal is the most important port of call for cargo passenger ships in Wuchang, and the north-south goods transported from here every day account for one-fifth of the entire Wuchang freight, which can be said to be an important place for oil and water.

A few years ago, the people who originally occupied this wharf were subordinate to the branch of the Elders' Association, but they were given overnight, and I heard that they offended a worldly master, and then the gangs of the entire Wuhan made a big move in order to compete for this piece of oil and water, although it was not a river of blood, but it was not much different. Later, the garrison in Wuchang couldn't stand it anymore, so they gathered the five largest local gangs, divided the dock into five, handed it over to the five gangs to take care of, and the benefits were divided equally, which made the matter calm down. Although there were some disputes later, on the surface they were all right.

Three blocks northwest from the launching dock is the upper-class residential area of Wuchang, where most of the people who live here are businessmen who have business in Wuchang, and there are also courtesans who want to hang their golden beetles. In order to keep this side safe, the merchant federation here contributed money to eliminate disasters and gave a red envelope to the five major gangs every month in exchange for the maintenance of law and order here by the five major gangs. In this way, it has become the best place for public security in the whole of Wuhan, and many foreigners who do business in the mainland also buy houses and live here. Most of the businessmen's sons and daughters who live here walk around the living quarters and rarely go outside, but there is one place they like to visit, which is a street called Meijie near the living quarters of the wealthy.

Life Street is a very special place in Wuchang, where nearly eighty percent of Wuhan's fortune tellers are gathered, large and small life halls stand in it, and people come here every day, it can be said that this is the most oily and watery area in addition to the launching wharf. However, it has been nearly 20 years since the establishment of Life Street, and no gang in the whole of Wuhan dares to come here to make trouble, not because of anything else, but because of the owner of the Tianshu Museum here, Zhao Banqian Zhao.

Although Old Man Zhao has a good reputation in the rivers and lakes, everyone who knows him is in awe of him, not because of anything else, because he can calculate your past clearly, and he can change your life unknowingly, so that you can die unexpectedly. No one wants to erect such an enemy, and Zhao Banqian also knows the rules very well and will never interfere in other territories, so for the life street where he sits, all the gangs in Wuhan have retreated, and only some gangsters will look for opportunities to make money here.

In fact, Zhao Banqian's true identity is the head of one of the three factions of the Lower Ninth Stream Side Sect Chinese Know the Mandate of Heaven, and the Lower Ninth Stream Side Sect Chinese In addition to the scattered people in the world like Xu Changqing, there are three relatively concentrated forces, they are the three factions of Knowing the Mandate of Heaven, Knowing ** and Knowing State Affairs. Knowing the destiny of heaven is the master, knowing ** is the master of Song, and knowing the state affairs is the master. The most powerful of these three factions is naturally Xiao Guoshi, their head Xu Shichang is Yuan Shikai's military advisor, although there are some twists and turns now, but he can still be smooth sailing and powerful. These three factions are all familiar with numerology, and they also know how to seek good fortune and avoid evil, but the methods they choose are different, among them, Zhitian's destiny is the strongest, and Xiaoguo's affairs are the weakest.

Although Zhao Banqian is the head of the Mandate of Heaven, there are many factions of the Mandate of Heaven, which are divided into twenty or thirty factions such as Meihua, Ziwei, Qimen, Liuren, etc. Zhao Banqian is not a person with a strong desire for power, after he took over the helm, he opened up a fortune-telling street in Wuchang, so that the inner door cultivators and the outer door fortune tellers who know the destiny of heaven have a place to live, and they can be regarded as fulfilling his obligations.

In addition to the Tianshu Hall on the entire life street, there are four or five life halls that are extremely accurate, such as the Golden Operator, the Daozizui, and the Iron Plate Immortal, all of which are life masters who really practice the Dao Law, they only count three trigrams every day, and it doesn't matter how much the three trigrams are, because of this, the other life officials on the life street can survive. For those small people in the market, it is too expensive to go to the fortune telling hall, and most of them will go to a vacant space specially opened up at the end of the street for the calculation of the fortune and ask those Jianghu warlocks to calculate a hexagram for peace of mind.

Today, in the arithmetic area at the end of the street, a strange man came, and saw him with a messy head, his beard hanging down to his chest, his body was as thin as a fleeing victim, he was dressed in dust, his clothes were tattered, his shoes were all worn out, and the only striking thing was a golden bell hanging from his braid. It was such a person who took off his gown on the street, and then wrote a few words on the gown with charcoal ash, "Hexagram Gold and Half a Coin", and used the dry bamboo in his hand to hold it up, and began to do fortune-telling business.

This person is Xu Changqing, who rushed out of Chen's house, he walked all the way, and it took ten days to get to Wuhan, because he walked all the way to the mountain roads, and all the roads he passed were some mud and gravel roads, so the clothes and shoes on his body became tattered. Originally, according to the money stored in his sleeve, he wanted to buy a dress and a pair of shoes, but when he came out, he forgot to bring enough loose money, and now he only has the Citibank ticket and traveler's checkbook. So, he had no choice but to do the fortune-telling that his master had done when he went out to practice, and at the same time, it was also to see if this Wenmen predecessor Zhao Banqian knew the destiny of heaven as rumored, so he wrote the words hexagram gold and half a coin on the cloth flag.
