23 Make wonders

It turned out that after the investigation in Cao Yuanwai's mansion that night, Shang Buqi had completely figured out the mystery of the "Lanzhou ghost monkey" left by Ning Cui, and concluded that the case was related to the local beggar gang. However, at that time, there were only three people on their side, Xie Yixiang, Xian Jingyue, and themselves, so how could they compete with the entire beggar gang? If they asked for the help of the three head catchers in the yamen of Lanzhou Mansion, Deng, Yu, and Fugu, it would be difficult to ensure that there was no connection between them and the beggar gang.

Fortunately, Shang Buqi had come to Lanzhou before, so he also knew something about the various forces in Lanzhou City, and immediately thought that he could use the power of the people in Lanzhou City. So after he made a three-day appointment with Xie Yixiang, he went alone to find the forces of the Semu people in the city, and after some bridging, he finally came into contact with Prince Geshu, the leader of the Semu people, at noon today. The prince of Na Ge Shu is well-read and strong, but he also knows the name of the Beiping God Hunt "Wicked Man Mill", and when he heard that Shang Buqi opened his mouth to ask for help, he actually wanted to join forces with the Semu people to deal with the beggar gang Lanzhou rudder, which can be said to be in the middle of the heart, and he agreed on the spot.

Later, there was a report from the eyeliner of the colored eye, saying that the beggar helped the monkey father of Lanzhou and the Qin Zhai master of Guanshan to plan in the north of the city, and it seemed that they wanted to set up a bureau to deal with the "Jingyue Yixiang". After that, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue underestimated the enemy for a while, and sure enough, under the tricks of the other party, Prince Geshu and Shang Bu gave up before they led the crowd to kill, and annihilated the two men of Monkey Daddy and Qin Zhai in one fell swoop, thus rescuing Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue.

Unexpectedly, these lustful people who were still at war with him last night have now become their own life-saving benefactors, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue were a little ashamed on their faces, and hurriedly thanked Prince Geshu and others. At this time, Xie Yixiang's drug had passed, so he admitted defeat to Nashang Bu and said: "If it weren't for the merchant to invite Prince Geshu to rescue him tonight, my brother and sister would really die here." Since even the lives of my brother and sister were saved by Shang Zhutou, the 'three-day covenant' that I made before was naturally lost. After that, she couldn't help but ask: "I just don't know what is going on with this 'Lanzhou ghost monkey' case? What is the connection with the beggar gang? ”

Who knows that until now, the merchant will not give up but still sell Guanzi, so he said in a mysterious way: "You go to a place with me, and all the puzzles will naturally be solved." He smiled at Prince Na Geshu again: "Lang Huaxia, inherited for thousands of years, if you want to talk about the unique skills of the Han people, it is all kinds and endless. And there is a craft in this, which can be called the four words 'wonder of the world'. I wonder if Prince Geshu is willing to walk with us on another trip?"

Prince Na Geshu was also curious, and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang is disrespectful, it is all up to the business to catch the head arrangement." At that moment, Xie Yixiang, Xian Jingyue, Prince Geshu, Ayi, Ju Xingshi, Mr. Mu and others led the way from Shang Bu to the southwest, and the monkey father broke his hands and tendons, and was also supported by two masters of the color eyes all the way. Everyone took advantage of the night to walk through Lanzhou City for half an hour, Xie Yixiang felt more and more familiar around, but he went to the west of the city; when he went to Cao Yuanwai's house that night to investigate the monkey theft case, it was clear that he had been here.

But after a while, everyone really arrived outside Cao Yuanwai's mansion, and the merchant who led the way did not give up but did not stop, and continued to cross a street and came to the house of an ordinary person. He didn't knock at the door, but kicked it open and rushed into the main hall. I saw a white-haired old Han couple in the hall, and before they could ask, they were kicked to the ground by Shang Buqi, and blood spurted wildly from their mouths, obviously two ordinary old men who didn't know martial arts.

Xie Yixiang couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice: "Shang Bu Wai, what do you mean by this?" Even Prince Geshu and his party were a little surprised. Shang Buqi was expressionless, and said coldly: "What is this? Later, when you see their craftsmanship, I am afraid that you will come back and take the lives of these two old animals." ”

After that, he stared coldly at the monkey father, and asked word by word: "So far, what else do you have to quibble?" Although the monkey father has been reduced to a waste, he is still very tough, and immediately "bah" and shouted: "If you can find this place, you have the ability! However, my beggar gang has been like this for thousands of years, is it the first time you have heard of it?"

Hearing the conversation between the two, everyone was a little inexplicable, and was about to ask questions, but after seeing that Shang Buqi saw the layout of the main hall, he stretched out his foot and kicked open a table of eight immortals in the hall, and then groped on the ground for a while, and suddenly opened a secret door, revealing a staircase leading to the ground.

Unexpectedly, under this ordinary family, there was such a mystery hidden, and Shang did not give up or explain much, and took the lead down the stairs. Everyone followed him down to the ground, and it was clearly a huge basement, with a lot of miscellaneous items piled up on all sides. Shang did not give up, so he asked everyone to light up the light, searched in the basement, and found a dark passage. Prince Nageshu couldn't help but sigh: "It is said that Xue Ju at the end of the Sui Dynasty rose up in Lanzhou City, proclaimed himself the 'Overlord of Western Qin', and repelled the attacking Tang army several times. There are rumors that Xue Ju once built tunnels under Lanzhou City for street battles with the Tang army in the future, and now it seems that this rumor is indeed true. ”

At that moment, the people continued along the dark passageway, and after about thirty or forty steps, they were already at the end of the passage, but two closed stone doors, from which the light of the light was revealed. The leader of Shang Bu took a deep breath and smiled at the people behind him: "There are no strange things in the world, and people in the world do all kinds of evil. Please get ready, let's enjoy the 'wonders of the world' created by the beggars!" With that, he stretched out his hand and pushed open the stone door.

As the two stone doors were pushed open, there was a large stone room behind the door, one of which was brightly lit, reflecting the fifty or sixty "people" in the stone roomβ€”for the time being, those things will be called "people". For a while, doubt, incomprehension, panic, and anger appeared on everyone's faces one after another, and a few of them couldn't hold it back, and even vomited with a "wow".

Even Xian Jingyue, who had never been afraid of the sky or the earth, was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he muttered in a trembling voice: "Cai ...... Cai Sheng ......" Shang Bu Qi laughed and said loudly: "Yes! It is the beggar gang's begging craft for thousands of years, Cai Sheng and Chewing!"

Hearing these four words, Xie Yixiang sweated profusely on the spot, only to feel that her legs were weak, and she almost fell to the ground. She and Xian Jingyue naturally knew what the so-called "harvesting and cutting" was all about, no matter which dynasty or generation of the law, it was a capital offense for "harvesting and cutting". It's just that I didn't expect to bump into Lanzhou City, and it was clearly in front of my eyes at the moment.

The group of people with the same eyes were also in an uproar, and Prince Na Geshu gasped and said to himself: "If you want to say that when the foreign race was in power in the previous dynasty, although he tortured the Han people in every way, it was not like this......; Alas, I think I've read all the subsets of the Han people's scriptures and histories, and I still can't understand what kind of race this is. ”

Shang Buqi tried to squeeze a smile on his face and said, "Since it is the first time that Prince Geshu and all of you have seen this 'wonder of the world', I will introduce it to you in detail. With that, he led the people all the way into the stone room, first came to a few little boys, pointed to their legs that had been cut off by Qi Gen, and explained: "This is called 'Fortune Boy', just put it on the side of the street, let them stretch out their only two arms to beg for money, so as to win sympathy, and naturally they will be able to make money." ”

He came to a little girl who had just had her hands and feet cut off, and explained: "This is called 'Guanyin Niangniang', also known as 'Bottle Girl'. It is to take advantage of the young girl's young age to cut off her limbs and put her body into a porcelain vase, so that she can be raised to the age of sixteen or seventeen, as if she has become a 'girl in a bottle'. With that, he pointed to a blue and white porcelain vase with a diameter of two feet and a height of half a person not far away, and sure enough, at the mouth of the porcelain vase, it was clear that a young woman's head poked out, although her face was full of sluggishness, but it was clearly a living person.

Then Shang Buqi came to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. I saw that the girl's limbs were intact, but the inside of her legs was stitched together by twine, and she was covered with scars. Shang Buqi pointed to the corpses of several giant pythons next to the girl, and explained: "This is called 'Nuwa Ancient God', because according to the legend of our Han people, Nuwa, the god of creation, is the shape of a human head and a snake body. Therefore, in order to restore Nuwa's true body, the girl's legs were sewn together, and her lower body was stuffed into the mouth of the giant python, but the body of the giant python was tied to death with cow tendons to prevent it from swallowing the girl into the abdomen. In this way, if you put on a long robe, you will become the 'Nuwa Ancient God' with a 'human head and a snake body', and you can perform for two or three hours......"

Speaking of this, Shang Bu gave up even though he was hard-hearted, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he turned around and gave the monkey father a slap, and shouted: "Is what I explained right?"

Seeing Father Monkey being beaten, six or seven intact men in the stone room suddenly stood up and asked, "Who are you? Aren't you a guest invited by Father Monkey?" Hearing their inquiries, it was obvious that they were all beggar disciples stationed here.

Seeing this scene of madness, the anger of the group was full of nowhere to vent, even if they wanted to do it to these six or seven men. Unexpectedly, Na Ayi's movements were extremely fast, and he had already flown forward, slashing with a short knife under his arm, and slitting the throats of five or six men in just a flash of lightning. Prince Na Geshu hurriedly shouted: "Keep alive, you have to be a witness!" Ayi let go of the last person, but cut off all his tendons and tendons, and kicked him in front of everyone.

But I saw that the juxing star suddenly walked out of the crowd, shook himself to the monkey father, and said: "I, the star master, is deeply aware of the essence of Persian juggling, and I think I am the best in the world for the way of selling art and rewarding. It wasn't until tonight that I saw the craft of the beggar gang that I knew that I was laughing at the generous house. Admire! Admire! This craft of the Han people is beyond the reach of our Persian country, and I am even more convinced!"

Hearing this, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue's faces were hot. The merchant did not give up but pretended not to hear, and came to the corner of the stone house, and beckoned to the two, "Look what this is." Xian Jingyue and Xie Yixiang stepped forward to take a look, and suddenly felt cold, although Xie Yixiang had served in the torture room for many years, she had long been used to seeing disgusting things, but when she saw this scene in the corner, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and vomited on the spot.
