The so-called Fangshi is one of the three religions - a unique branch of Taoism, whose disciples practice the art of fantasy, once flourished in the Qin and Han dynasties, and were mostly appointed by the rulers as witches, in order to divinate the number of the king's dynasty, or to ask the gods to manifest their spirits and other strange powers. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Later, with the rise of Confucianism, the Fangshi were regarded by the rulers as a sideline and were vigorously suppressed, so they gradually faded out of the world and hid in the world. The Yin and Yang family who advocated the Five Elements Theory and the Great Kyushu Theory, Zou Yan, a Qi person, and Xu Fu, who went to sea to find the elixir of life for the First Emperor, were all from the Fangshi lineage.

At that time, when Nian Dengshun told Zhu Xing about the anecdote of Fang Shi, he particularly emphasized that although Fang Shi has declined and retired, the magic of fantasy mastered by his descendants is still not to be underestimated, and his original intention is to warn this big disciple who may take over the mantle of the head in the future: The rivers and lakes are big, there are no surprises, and arrogance is a taboo in the rivers and lakes. If you think that the hermit family is weak and can be bullied, it is a big mistake, people used to be famous families, the most hermits in the Jiangnan generation, although many hermit families no longer care about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but they still have great influence in the world.

Don't look at the fact that the Haisha Sect is now growing and growing, and its power is all over the southeast coast, suppressing the reckless dragons and snakes such as the Qing Gang and the Salt Gang, as if it is already the leader of the nine streams in the southeast, but if you are arrogant and provoke any hermit family, it will be enough for you to drink a pot if someone starts to soar.

Zhu Xing recalled that period of the past at this time, of course, not because he remembered Nian Dengshun's teachings, but because Nian Dengshun said at that time that the Wuzhen Shaojia was a rare famous family in the existing Fangshi lineage, and he was the best at solving puzzles.

After Zhu Xing explained to Cao Ding, he said: "Except for the young family in Wuzhen, I can't think of any other purpose for the ideas to go to Wuzhen." ”

Cao Ding showed an emotional expression, obviously hearing such a secret for the first time, nodded and asked, "Senior brother, what should we do now?"

"Now...... Even if you dig three feet into the ground, I'm afraid you won't be able to find any trace of them......" Zhu Xing pondered for a long time, his heart moved, he raised the corners of his mouth, and said to Cao Ding, "I have a plan." ”

Cao Ding's face suddenly showed joy: "I want to hear the details." ”

"It's very simple," Zhu Xing spread his hands, "the dove occupies the magpie's nest and waits for the rabbit." ”

Cao Ding first looked at Zhu Xing puzzled, and after a long time, his expression changed, he gasped, and asked rhetorically: "Difficult, senior brother, are you going to ...... Destroy the young family?"

"Senior Brother Cao, you really understand me!" The lines on Zhu Xing's black face stretched, "Yes, let's destroy the Shao family first, and then pretend to be them, waiting for the ideas to fall into the net, and at that time, no matter how scheming they are, they can only be caught!"

"However, if a family is said to be destroyed, it will be destroyed......"

As soon as he thought that the senior brother wanted to destroy the legendary unfathomable Fang Shi lineage, Cao Ding felt that the boss was wrong.

Hearing this, Zhu Xing's black face, which had always been expressionless, showed a sneer: "No matter how beautiful the Wuzhen Shaojia is, it is also in the past, it is a matter of ancient times, and now they have retired, they have no power, only some tricks to solve puzzles, and they are not afraid at all." And in the final analysis, Fang Shi and the charlatans are a liar, relying on their mouths and rivers to eat with their hands and feet, but they play bigger!" He glanced at Cao Ding, and when he saw his heavy expression, he asked rhetorically, "Senior Brother Cao, are you still afraid of charlatans?"

"No, I'm just ......"

Cao Ding secretly thought in his heart, since the senior brother has already said so, I want to oppose it again, wouldn't it seem that he will lose his own prestige?

Zhu Xing bowed slightly, and seemed to be very satisfied with Cao Ding's answer.

"Tonight. ”

"So urgent?" Cao Ding was stunned for a moment.

Zhu Xing said: "Didn't the ideas say that they would leave for Wuzhen early tomorrow morning? ”

Cao Ding nodded: "That's what I said." ”

For a while, neither of the two spoke again, and the monitoring room fell silent.

"That...... Senior brother," Cao Ding suddenly asked, "What if, I mean, just in case, in case, we spent so much time to destroy the Shaojia family and lay a net on the Shaojia Mansion, and as a result... It turned out to be empty...... What to do?"

"You mean to say I was wrong?" Zhu Xing asked rhetorically.

"There's probably that, isn't it...... After all, Senior Brother, you bet all the treasures on the Shao family, and it's too risky......" Cao Ding stood up, "That, I didn't mean to object to you, it's just... I mean, wouldn't it be better for us to send some more secret sentinels to patrol Wuzhen, and it will be a double insurance ......"

After listening to Cao Ding's suggestion, Zhu Xing shook his head and said in a deep voice: "There's no need for that. ”

Seeing that the senior brother refused so simply, Cao Ding asked puzzledly, "Why?"

Zhu Xing didn't answer directly, but asked him rhetorically: "The ideas already know that there is a bug in the room, right?"

Cao Ding nodded, and Zhu Xing said again: "Then, they must also know that we have heard their conversation, right?"

Cao Ding nodded again, and Zhu Xing said again: "Then the question is, if you are one of those ideas, you know that the enemy has learned that you are going to Wuzhen, what will you do?"

"If it were me, I would definitely not go to Wuzhen to die," Cao Ding replied without thinking, "I will escape from Hangzhou and find a place to avoid the limelight first." ”

"What if you have to go?" Zhu Xing asked rhetorically.

"Then ......" Cao Ding frowned, "There is no other way than to go hard, but I will definitely travel lightly and always be vigilant, just in case, after all, I have to go deep into the tiger's den......"

"That's it," Zhu Xing spread his hands, "From the conversation of the ideas, we can know that they are determined to go to Wuzhen, and when the time comes, they will definitely be as vigilant as you, but you also have to remember that their destination is a small mansion, so it is purely superfluous to set up secret sentinels around Wuzhen, and the enemy is in the open and I am in the dark, once the ideas are detected, they are likely to hide their tracks...... Wait!"

Cao Ding was stunned for a moment: "What's the matter, senior brother?"

Zhu Xing frowned, paced a few steps around Cao Ding, and suddenly said, "Yes, you're right, we should indeed set up secret sentinels around Wuzhen." ”

Cao Ding listened to what Senior Brother said just now, and originally felt that he hadn't thought it through enough, but he didn't expect him to come again, and he was suddenly confused, and asked, "Senior Brother, what do you mean by this?"

"You're right, I'm thinking too simply," Zhu Xing turned around and said to Cao Ding, "Let's continue with the assumption just now, if you are the idea, what do you think will be the situation in Wuzhen tomorrow?"

Although Cao Ding couldn't figure out what medicine he was selling in his gourd, he still put himself in his shoes, and then replied: "Needless to say, it must be full of dangers, and there are enemies everywhere...... Uh, my people. ”

Zhu Xing asked again: "Then what if the entire Wuzhen is empty, and there is no trace of my door at all?"

"I ......" Cao Ding was stunned, thought for a long time, and finally replied hesitantly, "...... I don't understand it either, but I'm sure I don't think it's quite right. ”

"That's it," Zhu Xing nodded, "If you don't want to insert spies, it will make the ideas suspicious, so let's just follow their train of thought and set up a secret post in Wuzhen, so that they can keep a high level of tension along the way." ”

"Then when they arrived at the Shaojia mansion without danger and relaxed...... Cao Ding gradually understood.

“...... That's the real killer move. Zhu Xing finished speaking.

Cao Ding was stunned for a long time, and finally let out a sigh of relief, and praised sincerely: "Senior brother is smart, junior brother admires, admires." ”

"You reminded me. Zhu Xing smiled slightly.

"There is another question," Cao Ding held his chin, "Until now, we only know the name of the Wuzhen Shaojia, and the specific situation is not clear, and we don't even know where their house is in Wuzhen, so it will be too abrupt to do it tonight......

"What kind of problem is this?" Zhu Xing waved his hand, "There is no information to ask, junior brother, he is known as a jack of all trades, you can ask him, although he was locked up by the master, but if we explain the reason to the master, I think his old man will understand, besides, we can also ask the master directly, he still told me about the young family in Wuzhen." He saw that Cao Ding's expression was a little unnatural, and after a turn of thought, he understood what he was really worried about, so he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "I know, you want to say that it is inappropriate to destroy the Shao family for no reason......

"I don't mean anything else...... Cao Dingzhi said, "I just want to say... It is ...... to destroy a family based on inference alone."

"This is necessary," Zhu Xing's tone turned cold suddenly, "Compared to our task, a mere descendant of a charlatan is insignificant at all, after all, all this is for the great affairs of the master and his old man, how can those of us who are disciples not do our best?"

Hearing the senior brother mention the master, Cao Ding was suddenly shocked, his qualifications were mediocre, and he was not qualified to participate in the secrets of the master and his old man like the second senior brother, but he had also heard a little about it, and his mind changed, yes, the master's major event could not let my compassion be delayed, and he nodded and said, "Yes, I understand." ”

"That's right," Zhu Xing patted Cao Ding's shoulder again, "Senior Brother Cao, remember, in order to achieve great things, you would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go, this is not just talking, words must be practiced." Speaking of this, he sighed, "Senior Brother has already disappointed Master, we can't let his old man down again." ”

Cao Ding immediately arched his hand and said, "Oh!"

"Very good!" Zhu Xing nodded with satisfaction, "I'll call Master and his old man." ”
