Chapter 400: Golden Flower Dao People
"You're right, I suspect that Kong Deshun is the remnant of Jinhuamen~"
Xu Xiake's assertion was expected by everyone, after all, those clan elders were from Lingnan Jinhuamen, and it was reasonable for Kong Deshun to be really a remnant of Jinhuamen, but they lacked strong evidence, so they didn't dare to make a decision.
"My master said that he was once dwelled by nightmares, do you know what it takes to make nightmare incense?"
The little Taoist priest knew that they were curious, and he no longer sold it, and explained to them:
"Lingnan is hot and humid and foggy, although the woods are dormant with hundreds of beasts, people are not allowed to walk in it, once someone rashly wades into the primeval dense forest, often think that there is a hallucination to become tyrannical and crazy, the six relatives do not recognize, the light is deaf and blind, the heavy is dead, some people think that there are ghosts and gods hidden in the mountains and fields, it is the ghosts and gods who are blessing these forests and animals, and people are not allowed to enter the unknown wild forests, and it is also because of this that these places have the saying of sacrificing to the gods, and the mountain ghosts and wild monsters believe endlessly."
"Later, some wandering Taoist priests found that they did not die after walking into the primeval dense forest, which shows that not all the wild forests are haunted by mountain ghosts and wild monsters, and after several generations of Taoist priests took turns to stay and study the pharmacology of herbs and trees, they finally understood that it was the poisonous miasma in the forest that was at work."
"Miasma?" Song Siyuan's eyes widened, and more curiosity appeared on her face.
Xu Xiake nodded at everyone and continued to introduce the origin of the miasma!
There are 10,000 kinds of tropical plants in Lingnan, they will release toxic gases in order to protect themselves, these poisonous gases will disperse if they are blown by the wind for a few days, but Lingnan is hot and humid and rainy, which means that there is more fog in the forest, and after the miasma is mixed with the fog, it will be suspended and float in the treetops of the forest, once people walk into it, as long as they inhale the smoke miasma, they will be entangled in a variety of miasma to death.
The first Taoist priest who discovered this poisonous miasma was a chicken-footed Taoist who liked to deceive people with the technique of disgust with victory, and he was not good-looking, short in stature, like a half-big dwarf, and he stood up as a whole person, only to reach the half of the tree, and the miasma floated in the sky above the wild forest, and he was not poisoned because he was not tall.
As a result, this chicken-footed Taoist discovered the mystery of the miasma, and named this poisonous mist the poison of the miasma, and later he used the poison of the miasma to configure many poisonous pills, relying on the aroma of the poison pills to promote the miasma, and since then he has regarded himself as a person of the Golden Flower Road, established the Golden Flower Road, recruited disciples, and taught them to concoct the miasma illusion.
At the beginning, these golden flower paths were just under the banner of Taoism, using miasma to pretend to be gods and ghosts, collecting offerings and donating incense among believers, until they found that juggling could confuse the people more and deceive people with money, so they began to combine the art of disgust with tricks, and then used miasma to cooperate with tricks to complete many things that tricksters could not do.
Ordinary tricks are just tricks to deceive the audience, this kind of trick with a poisonous miasma does even deceive themselves and the audience, they must have enough obsession to let the people in the market see the illusion of the illusion, the peak of the door reached thousands, as if it was the Jianghu sect, like what the real dragon is suspended, the Buddha appears, the Rakshasa hell, the golden palace and Yuque are their forte, and even more can make people see their dead relatives again.
Just like the ghost building of Yin Si seen today, no matter how real this thing is, it does not exist in the human world, it is just an illusion that emerges after the human brain absorbs the poisonous miasma, and people interact with this illusion, just because they are affected by the miasma in the brain, once they pull out the incense or stimulate the brain with a strong smell, the illusion will disappear.
They rely on this kind of deception to sweep Lingnan, many people in the rivers and lakes defected to it, and Jinhuadao has become a dirty and dirty sect, because of dozens of murders, the rivers and lakes know that Jinhuadao has become an evil crooked way, and their actions are also seen by the orthodoxy of Lingnan Daomen, for orthodox Taoists, these people are "demons" who do bad things in the name of Taoism, and naturally everyone will be punished.
After several times of begging for thieves in the rivers and lakes, these people no longer dared to fight the banner of the Daomen, and from then on, they acted in the rivers and lakes with the Golden Flower Gate, in order to avoid the attack of the orthodox Taoist faction on them.
At that time, there were too many folk gangs such as Shenquanmin, Red Lantern Zhao, Baihuahui, and Lantern Shadow, all of them said that they had unique skills, and the boxers were also summoned by the old queen mother.
Attack on them entirely because these people have committed taboos!
These Jinhuamen people saw that there was a lot of gold in Lingnan, so they used tricks as a guise to make the surroundings extremely evil, so that the people could see the strange spirits of the breeze from afar, so as to cover up their actions of stealing river gold, but they had already been seen by the government, but they were wiped out in half a year, and the remaining tragic people fled with casualties, and there was no possibility of gathering into a momentum.
Yue Qingshan listened to him introduce the origin of Jinhuamen, and was obviously shocked:
"Housheng, since you know that Kong Deshun is from Jinhuamen, why don't you tell us earlier, so that we can have a defense, so that we won't be so embarrassed now, and we will be fascinated without even seeing anyone, isn't this a shame~"
