Chapter 17: The Eye of Heaven Leads the Machine
It was getting late, and Zhen Xingqing and Jia Daoli had dinner and wandered around the Zhendong Market.
As the sun sets, the bazaar is nowhere near as lively as it is during the day, and most of the shops and stalls are already closed.
Zhen Xingqing shook his shoulders and said leisurely: "Your senior brother doesn't have much ability in this life, but when it comes to this ability to fish in troubled waters and retreat safely, it is still so-so, not relying on the cultivation to be profound, but the improved technique from the Dafa of this sect." β
"Pulling the machine?" Jia Daoli frowned.
"When I was still in the mountains, in order to supervise whether those of us who were apprentices were working hard, every time I left the mountain gate, I would monitor everyone's practice progress with Peeping Dafa, at that time, Lao Tzu had to be beaten every time, so I was thinking, can I find a countermeasure to these exercises that monitor others through the flow of spiritual elements, and the result really let me find the rules of each, after the exercises have been slightly successful, not only can the practitioners not be able to monitor and locate my own position, but also can reverse the observation of who is using similar techniques within a certain range, of course, since then it will not be allowed to the worldγ Zhen Xingqing twisted her beard and smiled, her face full of smugness.
Blind Jia slandered in his heart, the reason why you are wanted by the entire cultivation world is obviously to use this method to sneak into various sects to steal treasures, and even sneak into the palace, so that you have become a street rat that everyone shouts and beats, but you ask: "You haven't missed this trick for so many years?"
"Once," Zhen Xingqing put her hands behind her back, and her face gradually showed a look of nostalgia because she was caught in a memory, "When I entered the palace for the second time, I met a little girl who also sneaked in to find something in the inner library, chewing on a piece of golden silk cake and rummaging through the bookshelves of the Gongfa books, she saw through my collection at a glance, and locked me for half an hour without my knowledge, until I left the palace. β
Jia Blind said strangely: "Countless masters inside and outside the mountain gate have no problem with you, what kind of little girl is so powerful?"
Zhen Xingqing smiled and said, "Later, I learned that Princess Yongle Liancheng's bloodline awakened that night. β
Jia Blind suddenly realized that although the technique of pulling the machine was powerful, he encountered the Liancheng bloodline connected to the city of the world in the palace, and there was nothing to hide.
Presumably Zhen Xingqing met Zhao Yuzhen at that time and formed a year-old friendship, and the later story is known to the world, Zhen Xingqing joined the Supervision Department under the recommendation of Princess Yongle, and served as the director of the Investigation Department, the king of thieves caught thieves, so the world was peaceful.
In those years, the security in the capital was unusually good, until the princess married Bai Hai, Zhen Xingqing resigned and retired, and there was no sound over the years, but what the world didn't know was that it was by relying on Zhen Xingqing's trick that Zhao Yuzhen was able to crack the Dafa of the traitor of Jia Daoli's sect who cried at night, and fled back to Panlong Town for thousands of miles.
Zhen Xingqing did not take the erhu that never left her today, but changed to a dry tobacco, and at this time, her fingers were wiped on the smoke pot, and the fire lit up.
He took a deep breath, looked enjoyable, and then slowly spit out around, the smoke was hazy and spread around, and after a while, it had enveloped the entire town, and Jia Blind was surprised to find that there were many clear tracks of different colors in the smoke, falling from the sky, connecting all corners of the town, and some tracks were still moving slowly.
Zhen Temperament held a cigarette stick and pointed around: "You see, these four wisps of golden and purple tracks are the eyes that Li Chunhao arranged in the town back then, and now Zhou Zhe is not here, temporarily in charge of the old money of the school, located in the square gate of the town, monitoring the people who come and go, whether there are any cultivators mixed into the town, the main purpose is to protect those little children in the school, Tianqingsi has withered in the past few years, and the competition for the cultivation seedlings in the town after the star tide is sparing no effort, and other treasures They are rich and wealthy, and they can't look down on them." β
The four golden-purple silk threads are bright and dark, and on the canopy of the night approaching, they seem to be the four door gods guarding the town.
There are also many tracks of different colors in the town, Zhen Xingqing pointed to the country with a cigarette stick, and explained to Jia Daoli: "The dark green track on the town guard mansion is just laid out by Beiyue Academy, it is not too solid, and the means are generally tight, it is estimated that Guo You will visit the door in the next two days, and the orange on the drum tower should be the technique of the Emperor Jizong, I heard that the young daughter of the emperor-level head will come over after a while, and worship under Zhou Zhe's door, and the safety here is their most important thing." As for the black silk thread, I don't know where it came from, the person who arranged it shouldn't be in the town, but this direction is very selfish, facing the door of Zhou Zhe's mansion, I'm afraid there is no kindness to Tianqingsi. β
Jia Blind followed what his senior brother pointed out, looked at the past one by one, and silently wrote it down in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh that when the imperial power was shaken, all the dragons and snakes couldn't bear it.
After walking around the town for half a circle, Blind Jia pointed to twenty or thirty pale yellow tracks and asked, "These tracks must be the eyes of the fence laid by the master of the dry sea, right?"
The pale yellow trajectory is slightly different from the others, ethereal, if there is nothing, it is still moving slowly, and if you don't look closely, you can't even find it at all.
Zhen Xingqing nodded and said: "Yes, this monk has a lot of eyes, and he has laid so many sights in the town, as early as before Zhou Zhe's first attempt in the illusion realm, he began to observe every child in the town who has the talent of cultivation, whether it is words and deeds or how talented he is, he can see it all." β
Jia Daoli said with a smile: "That dry sea master should have a good candidate, but until now, it can only be said that the standard for accepting disciples in the Buddhist sect is too strict." β
"Where is the strictness of Buddhism, it is that this bald donkey has a lot of trouble, and it is troublesome!" Zhen Xingqing knocked off the soot on the sole of his shoe and said disdainfully, "The dry sea monk cultivates Hinayana Buddhism, pays attention to entering the world, and pays attention to entering the world, mother-in-law and mother-in-law, the benevolence of women, and the inheritor is like him, who is compassionate to all things in the world, has a heart of forbearance, and acts decisively. β
Jia Daoli shook his head and said: "No wonder his sect has always been unpopular, such people are really hard to find, not to mention a mere Panlong Town, even if you find one or two in the sky." β
The corners of Zhen Xingqing's mouth rose, and he mocked: "There is no one in the sky, but there is one in front of him, boxing at his door early in the morning, this has been several years, turning a blind eye, or pretending to be blind with his eyes open, deceiving himself, isn't it still greedy, the heir he hopes to find is still that person's child, how can there be such a good thing in the world, if there is really one, it is the Buddha who has opened his eyes." β
The remnant sun regained the last ray of brilliance between heaven and earth, and the trajectories that only the two brothers could see flickered and changed in the town, Jia Daoli sighed, occasionally felt something, and turned around and asked: "Senior brother, since your book can observe all the observation techniques in the world in reverse, is it useful in monitoring and peeping?"
Zhen Xingqing waved her hand to disperse the smoke of a town, pressed the cigarette gun casually, and said lazily: " For me, I have studied the opportunity to look at me anytime and anywhere, including the old man, and I don't want to be watched by everyone including the old man anytime and anywhere to look at me, there are eyes on the top of my head, and Lao Tzu can't pull and pull smoothly, in this case, how can I use a similar method to spy on others, people live, isn't it to be at ease, this ubiquitous eye, it makes Lao Tzu feel very uncomfortable, so I pick those places where surveillance and defense are intensive, go in and out, stay for two days and leave, and take away a few things that the other party cares about when I am unhappy, just to tell these cultivators who rely on cultivation to have a bird's eye view of the world, don't try to spy on the world, you don't have this right, and you can't see it. β
Blind Jia shook his head and disagreed: "Not every beam of eyes looking at this world is malicious, for example, in this town, there are both Tianqing Division, who protects the people, and Master Dry Sea, who chooses opportunities for children, the key is to see the heart of the caster." β
Zhen Xingqing laughed, patted his junior brother on the shoulder and said: "Senior brother, you are still as innocent as when you were in the mountains, let me ask you, Li Chunhao's master and apprentice have spared no effort to protect these cultivators in the town, in addition to thinking about their safety, have they not monopolized the selfishness of a generation of newcomers? Like now, to prevent any mountain warriors from entering the town, is it really good for these children? How do the two of them know that there is no opportunity and Taoism in the world that is more suitable for these children than the cabinet of Tianqingsi? As for the withered sea, it is even more ridiculous, the matter of accepting apprentices was originally something that he had to do for the continuation of his own lineage, taking care of these children is more like an old farmer taking care of the crops in his own field, what is the meaning of good and evil? Moreover, the person he wants to find may not be willing to take on the responsibility of the current dry sea monk. As for the rest of the few, the flies are camping and dogs, and they will take it for profit, and don't mention it,"
After saying that, the exercises were dispersed, and all kinds of trajectories in the air disappeared, and the two of them chatted and walked, and disappeared into the night in a moment.
Behind them, a black carriage slowly drove into the south gate of the town, Zheng Yanji personally sat on the wheel, whipping the people in the car, in the carriage, a delicate little hand gently lifted the window curtain, a pair of smart eyes stretched out, curiously observing the scenery of the town, after a while, the carriage arrived at the drum tower of the town, and the crowd downstairs slowly bowed.
At the same time, the cook of Zhang's butcher's house and the blacksmith in the town walked out of the laundry together, and after nodding to each other, the little guy walked towards his butcher's shop, while the blacksmith took off his shirt and changed into the outfit of a businessman.
After dressing up, he walked into the shadow behind the alley in three or two steps and disappeared into the darkness.
