Chapter 8: Yin and Yang Exploring the Horse
Taking advantage of the old thief's inattention, I quietly knelt up straight, grabbed the corner of the red cloth, lifted it and looked inside, and there was a blank piece of paper pasted on the god seat, and there was not even a person's name on it!
Is this the grandfather?
I glared at the patriarch thief and asked, "Patriarch thief, our ancestor is called a tabula rasa, right?" β
The patriarch thief was stunned for a moment, and his face immediately blossomed, and he stretched out his big hand and slapped me hard: "You little bastard!" You can do it! β
I saw the strange smile on the face of the patriarch thief, and there was a thief in his eyes, and I immediately wanted to stand up, but he pressed back: "You dare to open the curtain, which means that you are bold, careful, and able to grasp the opportunity." You're in.
This shrine is the title that the ancestor left us. You kneel and don't move, and you can't get in if you kneel to death. β
The patriarch thief said: "I'll tell you the truth, the ancestor you worship really has nothing to do with the Yuan family, what I want to teach you is another kind of ability." β
"Although the secret technique of the Yuan family is unscrupulous, it is better not to use it if you can use it. Moreover, if you want to learn the secret art of the Yuan family, you have to have other skills to lay a foundation, otherwise, you will easily let you summon the fierce gods and evil ghosts to eat first. β
The patriarch thief took out a book as he spoke: "What I want to teach you is this "Yin and Yang Exploration of Horses". β
I was immediately confused: "You take the book and teach me?" β
The old thief's eyes glared: "What's wrong with teaching you a book?" When you go to school, the teacher doesn't take a book when you give a lecture? Isn't that true? β
The old thief has a point, but I just think he's confused about me.
The old thief told me: "Scouts are also called scouts, that is, scouts in ancient times. Spying on military intelligence, mapping maps, uprooting outposts, scratching tongues, and even assassinating opposing generals. In ancient times, a scout force was specially set up - the White Army. The leader of the Tabai Army, known as the Tabai General, played a pivotal role in the army. β
At that time, they encountered more than just people, wild poisonous insects, mountain spirits and water monsters, powerful ghosts and demons, formations, and wizards, all of which may have been in danger for them.
In ancient times, Tanma also came up with a set of special methods to deal with ghosts and gods, and it also formed the prototype of "Yin and Yang Tanma Duel".
Later, there were retired scouts who wandered the rivers and lakes, and "Yin and Yang Exploring the Horse" was improved by many masters of the arts, and it shined in the hands of a warlock named Yu Ming, and once dominated the world.
After Yu Ming's death, "Yin Yang Exploration Horse Decision" was also lost, and Yin Yang Exploration Horse disappeared.
According to the patriarch thief, I practiced "Yin and Yang Exploration Horse Decision" and was the last Yin and Yang Exploration Horse.
If I cultivate the realm of Huangquan and White General within ten years, it will be enough for me to crisscross the rivers and lakes.
I can't believe the words of the patriarch thief, God knows, where did he get his "Yin and Yang Exploration Horse Decision"? He hasn't practiced himself, how does he know that he can cross the rivers and lakes?
It wasn't until I practiced the Yin and Yang Exploration Horse Decision that I realized that this secret method was like it was tailor-made for me.
Not only can I learn the things in it, but I can even fill in some of the missing places by myself.
It only took me five years to learn all the "Yin and Yang Exploration Horse Decision". It's just that I haven't verified what level I've reached.
The patriarch and thief don't understand these things, and I can't verify them.
However, the old thief insisted on letting me study art for ten years before becoming a teacher, seventeen years old is not the age to go to the rivers and lakes, he let me watch it for another five years.
I have been studying art for many years, my grandfather has never come to me, but every year when I celebrate my birthday, I can always receive his handwritten letter, I know my father's words, and I am relieved to see that he is safe.
The veteran thief has been searching for the whereabouts of the Thirteen Ghost Gates.
He made a plan for me.
That is, after I left the school, I had to make my name first, and then, while looking for the Thirteen Ghost Gates, I waited for the Thirteen Ghost Gates to come to me.
The two-way operation makes it easier to find clues to the Thirteen Ghost Gates.
I have followed the patriarch thief for ten years, although I have always been inconspicuous and undewy, but I have mixed up the name of "Little Third Master" here in Feng Shui Street.
On the day I left the school, the patriarch thief posted to everyone on Feng Shui Street: He washed his own hands in a golden basin, retired to the rivers and lakes, and passed the first house on Taiping Street to me.
On that day, the patriarch thief set up a score and asked people to carry themselves to the street with eight sedan chairs.
As soon as the person in front lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, he immediately put stacks of 100-yuan bills on the ground, and let the old thief step on it and walk into the courtyard.
When the old thief took a step, he put a stack of banknotes on the ground, and threw out 400,000 cash for such a stretch of time.
The master of ceremonies stood at the door and pulled his neck and shouted: "I have been in the rivers and lakes for 40 years, and I will never touch the soil of the rivers and lakes." Congratulations to the third master of Yuan, the horse is put in Nanshan, and the rivers and lakes are dusty. β
The old thief waved his hand and walked slowly to the middle of the courtyard, and the master of ceremonies shouted again: "Please pour clean water." β
"A wash, the rivers and lakes will go."
"Second wash, the rivers and lakes have grievances."
"Three washes, the rivers and lakes are decisive."
"The rivers and lakes are not my land from now on, and the idle clouds and wild cranes are free. Reesungβ"
The veteran thief wiped his hands with a towel and motioned for the master of ceremonies to continue.
The master of ceremonies shouted again: "Please ask the third master to climb the mountain and sit on the first chair on Taiping Street." β
The patriarch thief smiled and handed the snow dagger into my hand: "Our family heirloom is for you, go ahead!" β
I took the dagger with both hands and heard someone shout, "Wait a minute." β
When I turned my head to look, someone walked out: "Yuan Sanye, wash your hands in the golden basin, I naturally have to congratulate you, but this little third master should not be able to afford it, I see ...... a chair on Taiping Street."
"Look at you shit!" The old thief grabbed the edge of the golden basin and lifted it up, and after the copper basin filled with water turned twice in the air, a basin of water was splashed on the man.
The dagger in my hand was instantly unsheathed, and my body moved in front of the man, and the knife in my hand stabbed at the falling copper basin, and the tip of the dagger pierced the copper basin, and then buckled the basin and knife in the man's face.
The people present screamed in fright, but I let go of the dagger and walked back.
The old thief smiled and said: "Whoever went over to open the basin, if my grandson's knife was not half an inch away from the tip of the nose of the goods, even if he was not good at learning, our grandson would immediately withdraw from Taiping Street." β
Someone walked by tremblingly, opened the copper basin, and the dagger did not touch the tip of the man's nose, but the man fell down with a thud of fright.
As for whether the dagger is half an inch away from the tip of the other party's nose, who has the heart to look at it?
The old thief picked up a stack of money and threw it at the man's feet: "Take him to see a doctor, don't be stabbed to death by a knife, he will be scared to death first." β
The man's companion didn't dare to say more, so he quickly carried the person and slipped away.
The patriarch thief clenched his fists to the people present and said: "I quit the rivers and lakes today, and I naturally don't need to use the previous rules." However, I have to fight for my grandson Yuan. β
"My grandson Yuan Zheng, in the future, will only accept the business of exorcising ghosts and warding off evil spirits, and as long as there is someone on Feng Shui Street who can take over the business, we will not accept it."
"In the future, I will ask his uncles and uncles to take care of it, my old man will not forget your benefits."
