Thirty years ago, Tong Chen used the illusion to kill the four thieves and a group of enemies who came to hunt them down in Lanruo Temple.
Although people are dead, the things on them... are still there.
Those who seek revenge will not carry anything too valuable with them, but the four thieves are different. They all have some personal wealth.
That "Taotie Thief" Han Li had a copy of Taihe Gong's secret recipe that he got from somewhere.
Many people may not know this Duke Taihe, but there is another person that you should know, namely Zhuan Zhu, one of the four great assassins in "Historical Records: Biography of Assassins".
It is said that in order to help Prince Ji Guang kill King Liao of Wu, Zhuan Zhu went to Taihu Lake to learn the art of grilling fish from Duke Taihe for three years. After he returned from studying, he took advantage of King Wu's preference for "fish grilling" and lured him there.
In the house of Prince Ji Guang, the famous play "The Sword Hidden in the Belly of the Fish" was staged.
In short, in the late Spring and Autumn Period, when it came to cooking fish or aquatic products, Duke Taihe was unparalleled in the world, and the recipes he left behind were indeed priceless treasures for foodies like Han Li.
.
Next, let’s talk about the “Long Yang Thief” Zhu Meng; even though he is not the boss, among the four thieves, he has the highest martial arts.
Why is Zhu Meng beautiful, like a woman, and speaking in a soft voice?
Of course, one reason is that he is gay, and another reason is that he practiced a kind of martial arts called "Duoqing Jue", which caused some problems with his body's endocrine system and caused the hormone imbalance.
Speaking of this "Love Skill", in fact, it is not a kung fu for men. It is a martial arts method created by a chivalrous woman in the world many years ago. Only a woman's physique can adapt to it.
This chivalrous woman is also guilty of evil. Who would have thought that among her descendants there would be a person like Zhu Meng...
However, there is a saying that Zhu Meng also has a pitiful side; he also lost his parents when he was less than ten years old. Seeing that he was the only child left in their family, a few evil-hearted relatives took over Zhu Meng's ancestral property and returned it.
The young Zhu Meng was sold to a brothel (another name for a brothel) to be a little turtle slave.
This family secret book was brought out by Zhu Meng after he secretly hid it on his body. It is also the only relic left by his parents.
Fortunately, at this time, Zhu Meng had been reading for several years and knew many words, so he could basically understand the words in the manual. So, after a few years, Zhu Meng started practicing martial arts, but... he
There have been some changes in my body and mind.
Since the hall was full of women, Zhu Meng was brought up by these prostitutes. He was exposed to them every day and practiced women's kung fu. In this way, day after day, he became a "Long Yang Pirate".
Actually, if you really talk about it in detail, the "Passionate Art" skill is not absolutely only for women to practice. If your talent, understanding and martial arts foundation are high enough and you know how to modify some of the details, then you can be a man.
It can also be practiced.
Take the Emei Nine Yang Kung Fu in "The Legend of Heaven and Slaying the Dragon" as an example. It is derived from the parts that Guo Xiang memorized when he was young and heard Master Yuan reciting the "Nine Yang Manual". Later, when Guo Xiang founded the sect, her
Martial arts attainments have made it possible to modify martial arts at the level of Nine Yang Divine Skills into martial arts suitable for women and pass them on.
However, Zhu Meng naturally cannot compare to Guo Xiang...
Because his parents died young, no one told him from the beginning that "Duoqing Jue" was a martial arts practiced by women. Moreover, Zhu Meng did not have an introductory martial arts master, so he learned everything by himself; in addition, he was taught by his relatives.
The experience of being trapped makes it difficult for him to build trust in others again, and it is impossible for him to ask others for advice.
Therefore, the result of Zhu Meng's strong practice of the "Poly Love Technique" was to train himself into a half-man and half-female state. He could not exert the power of this martial arts to 100%, and at most he used 60 to 70%.
Of course...60 to 70% is enough.
After all, this is superior martial arts, not to be compared with those martial arts masters, but to compare with his three other brothers who are thieves, it is more than enough.
Zhu Meng practiced kungfu. The year he left the brothel, the first business he did was to kill the relatives who had cheated him and took away all his belongings. According to his thinking, this is called "taking back what belongs to me"
"things", as for the extra part, it will be treated as interest.
After that, he started his career as a "grass thief" and met three other brothers one after another. His book "The Art of Love" has been carried close to him for so many years.
As a result, he also told the story in Lanruo Temple with him...
Next, let’s talk about the “Zhuge Thief” Lan Shuoli; what this brother left behind is very interesting – the design drawings.
As mentioned before, Lan Shuoli likes "clever things" the most, such as traps, smoke screens and flying needles. To put it more bluntly, this person is a magician.
Magicians naturally have to use some tricks to hide things: Therefore, Lan Shuoli did not directly carry a "book" with him, but hid his lifelong research results, namely those design drawings, in a
In a metal box that is about the same size as a school bag, only someone who can decipher the method of opening the box...such as himself can open it and view the contents inside.
Finally, there is the "Flying Thief" Li Yuan.
This person loves money the most among the four thieves, and he is also the best in Qinggong. But if you think that this person will leave behind any unique Qinggong secrets, you are wrong.
The Qing Gong that Li Yuan learned is actually very common. You can learn it from any second- or third-rate sect. The reason why this guy's Qing Gong is so powerful is because of his extraordinary talent. He really doesn't need to learn any particularly advanced Qing Gong, because ordinary Qing Gong can't be used at all.
When he performs it, he is already "stepping on his left foot and spiraling up to the sky with his right foot." If you ask him to learn a stronger Qing Gong, there won't be much improvement in his actual performance.
It's like, if you go to a key high school and can barely get a score of 620 or so on the college entrance examination, but he can get a score of 650 or more if he goes to an ordinary high school, then it doesn't make much sense if you let him go to a key high school.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, although he did not leave behind any martial arts skills, this "Flying Thief" still left something else - a "counter ticket" from Baichuan Bank.
This counter ticket is the voucher issued to you by the ancient counter shop when it helps you keep things. It is similar to the pawn ticket in the pawn shop, and its service form is similar to today's bank vault.
Baichuan Bank is one of the largest businesses in Dashu. It has been operating for hundreds of years. In addition to the business of ordinary banks, it also has some functions of a counter shop, so it is very likely that this counter ticket can still be redeemed today.
However, it is hard to say what exactly this "flying thief" keeps on the cabinet, but judging from his character who regards wealth as his life, 80% of it is something that is worth more than money and can maintain its value, such as antique calligraphy and paintings.
Very high.
The above four items are what Sun Huanglei and the others obtained after searching the room.
Tongchen didn't deliberately keep the relics for the four thieves, but these things were of no use to the monsters, so he just put them there without taking them seriously.
No, many years later, Shuang Harmony and Lei Buji became cheaper.
Just when the three of them were preparing to divide the spoils, Miao Yinzi came back. However, he was the only one who came back, and Xie Run didn't come in for a long time.
"Eh? Taoist priest, where is Brother Xie?" Huang Donglai asked when he saw that no one seemed to be outside the house.
"I let him go first." Mianyinzi said.
"Ah?" Sun Yixie raised his eyebrows and said, "How to get there? This is an island in the middle of the lake. Where can he go? And the boat we took when we came here has been destroyed."
"You don't have to worry about this. The boat Pindao took when he landed on the island is still intact. The boatman who sent you here is also still on the island and safe and sound. I have told the donor Xie the location of the boatman and the boat and asked them to leave first.
." Mianyinzi replied.
"Wait a minute..." Sun Yixie said, "Then if they take the boat away, won't we all be trapped here?"
"That's true...ha..." Miaoyinzi smiled, "With me here, are you still afraid that you won't be able to leave?"
"Hmm..." Sun Yixie rolled his eyes again, "That's true, then... Taoist priest, why don't you just blow us to Wuchang with your breath?"
"Do you really think I'm a god? If I could cross you hundreds of miles just by blowing my breath, would it be too late for me to come this day?" Miao Yinzi asked in return.
"Okay." Sun Yixie thought about it and then said, "But I don't know why the Taoist Master asked Brother Xie to leave first?"
"The direction he wants to go after crossing the river is different from yours, and he also carries an ominous object on his body, which will cause a lot of disasters. I saw that he is a decent man and has quite a chivalrous heart, so I gave him some guidance.
I want him to take the first step." Miaoyinzi continued, "Besides, before he left, he asked me to say goodbye to you on his behalf. It's a long journey, and when we meet again in the future, he will definitely repay you well."
"Oh, that's it." Sun Yixie nodded.
"Besides..." Mianyinzi hadn't finished her words yet, "I do have something I need the three of you to help with, so I need you to stay for a while."
Then, Mianyinzi told them all the legends related to Lanruo Temple, including the earlier story of the ancestor's corpse on the Shan River.
After listening, they realized that the paper man they had encountered before was really "Yelü Baoqi". The principle of Tongchen's evil method was to parasitize the innocent souls trapped here on the paper man, and then let them do it for him.
Serve yourself, because these paper figures themselves are conscious, so the "counterfeiters" in the illusion will be more realistic and flexible in their actions.
So what kind of help did Miaoyinzi want Shuanghehe and Lei Buji to do?
In fact, it's not a big deal. It's just that when he opens the altar and performs the practice, he needs a few "boys" to gather around and protect the Dharma.
Although this job can also be replaced by "summoning creatures", the effect will naturally be better if it is done by real people.
As for the reason why Miaoyinzi did this, I think everyone can guess it. He wanted to re-strengthen the seal under Lanruo Temple to prevent anything from happening again after they left.
So, until dawn, the three of them were helping the Taoist priest with this matter.
By the next day, it was bright and clear.
Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai and Lei Buji woke up almost at the same time.
After they got up, they looked around and found that they were sitting in an empty space on the south bank of the Shihe River. Their luggage and the relics of the four thieves they had found were neatly placed around them.
The three of them had no idea when they fell asleep or how they got here. Everything yesterday seemed to be a dream, but those terrifying memories and the things they got reminded them that everything happened.
It actually happened...
Sun Yixie wanted to quickly divide the relics of the four thieves before going on the road. Unexpectedly, Lei Buji decisively refused to share the stolen goods: firstly, there was indeed nothing he wanted among the four relics; secondly,
, after listening to Miaoyinzi's story about Lanruo Temple's past, he already knew that these four things were left by "thieves", and his father once told him that in the world, only thieves' things are the most valuable.
It's best not to get your hands on it, because you can't tell who the last owner of this thing was. If someone has a grudge against the thief and finally follows the thing and takes revenge on you, you can't tell.
Of course, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai are not afraid of this. Not to mention that the four thieves have been dead for thirty years, and many of their enemies also died in Lanruo Temple. Even if there are other suffering masters looking for these relics,
When someone comes to your door, they are confident that they can rely on their shamelessness and sophistry to deal with it.
So, in the end, Sun and Huang added two to one to make five, and divided the accounts in half. The recipes and counter tickets belonged to Sun Yixie, while the secret book and the box were taken by Huang Donglai.
The miraculous turmoil on the Shihe River has come to an end.
The three young heroes embarked on their journey again and entered the rolling mountains between Xinyang and Wuchang...
