Chapter 320 Jianghu



Xiao Yuehua was furious. She squinted her eyes at the old Taoist priest who was leaning over with a smile on his face. She touched the small golden hammer on her body and threatened, "Old Lu, your beard has grown too long. Don't you want it anymore?"

"Hey, don't be impatient, young lady."

Lü Dongbin was startled, and quickly stretched out his hand to protect his beard, then smiled and said: "I can tell at a glance that you are the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady who has come down to earth. It's only because you were infected by evil spirits when you came down to earth that you have forgotten your past and present lives. It's great that we meet today. I have made a breakthrough again, so I can save you once."

Xiao Yuehua heard Lü Dongbin's words were new and interesting, so she naturally asked, "How?"

"Hey, the secret cannot be easily revealed."

Lu Dongbin stood up and stroked his beard with one hand and rubbed it with the other. Xiao Yuehua curled her lips and said disdainfully: "I won't fall for your tricks. You are not as capable as my father."

As soon as this was said, everyone burst into laughter. Lü Dongbin sighed and said, "It seems that my previous skills in the martial arts world have faded. Forget it, I'd better stay in the dojo and continue my research."

The great men of this era did not need to give face to the emperor. For example, Sun Simiao and some great Confucian scholars were simply not invited by the emperor to come to the court. Even if he invited them three or four times, they just wouldn't come, and the emperor had no way to deal with it.

Lü Dongbin smiled and shook his head, explaining: "To be precise, it is a trick of the underworld. When it comes to magic, my dojo can definitely say that no one else in the world can do it better than me."

"No."

Li Dan laughed and said, "Yes, my little tiger has fenced off his territory, no matter what kind of fierce dog dares to approach. Most people definitely don't know this."

Wu Zetian asked curiously, "Why was it easy to get by in the past few years? Is it hard to get by now?"

I inquired about his family's situation and heard that he kept fierce dogs at home. When the master traveled, he not only brought his vicious slaves with him, but also his fierce dogs.

With the people becoming wiser and the Tang Dynasty's laws being enforced more and more strictly, it's naturally harder to get involved in the underworld. In the end, the underworld is mostly just a bunch of tricks to deceive people."

Lü Dongbin looked at Qingxu Zi, made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty is curious, please tell me. You have been in the martial arts world longer than me, and it happened to be a turbulent time, so you should have more to say than me."

Firstly, I can help the local people. Secondly, it can make my travels easier. After all, traveling requires money.

Grind the tortoise urine into ink and add a few ounces of it to the stone.

The so-called magic tricks of the underworld all start with their strangeness. You have to attract the other party's curiosity at the beginning. After all, letting others take the bait actively is much more effective than going to them yourself.

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Aren't you talking about Jianghu magic?"

Wang Zheng explained with a smile: "Because it is difficult to scrub off, if you use water to scrub, it will continue to penetrate into the bricks and stones."

Xiao Yuehua said in disgust: "Hey, you are so disgusting. Why do you use turtle urine to grind ink?"

Li Zhi asked with a smile: "Master, are you so quiet that you want to move?"

Li Xian bowed to Li Zhi, Wu Zetian and Wang Zheng and his wife and left.

Qingxuzi sighed and said: "That's why it's not easy to survive in the martial world. At that time, people did think I was a master, but I didn't fall for it. If you can't afford to offend them, you can always avoid them.

Of course, the aristocratic families must be attacked, but the emperor has always been very tolerant of those true hermits and masters, because such people have no conflict of interest with the emperor, and killing one of them would be a huge blow to his own reputation.

Qingxuzi looked at Wang Zheng and said with a smile: "The chief steward asked the Ministry of Rites to issue religious management regulations, forcing the Buddhist and Taoist sects to constantly clean up their ranks and recruit various people from the underworld. The students of Yuzhou are also constantly cracking down on people from the underworld.

Wang Zheng stood up and pulled two chairs apart. He extended his hand and gestured for them, saying with a smile, "Masters, please sit down and talk first."

In those days, it was more like just trying to make ends meet than wandering around. In fact, it was better to live in a peaceful time, especially in the past few years. I heard that many people got rich by wandering around."

Qingxuzi recalled: "That happened during the late Sui Dynasty. I traveled to Hebei at that time and heard that a wealthy family named Yang was rich but unkind, so I wanted to go to their house to beg for some money and food.

Xiao Yuehua asked curiously, "After you scared off his fierce dog, did his master fall for it?"

Lu Dongbin and Qingxuzi casually bowed to Li Zhi, Wu Zetian and Wang Zheng as a greeting. After they sat down, Lu Dongbin answered Li Zhi's question.

Qingxuzi, who is nearly seventy years old, stroked his long white beard, with a touch of reminiscence in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Life in troubled times is not easy, and the martial arts world in troubled times is even more dangerous.

"It's not that I'm too still to think about things, I just sit in a rocking chair and think about things when I have nothing to do, and I kind of miss the days when I was traveling around the world."

Lu Dongbin and Qingxuzi were the last to arrive. They were reluctant to join in the fun, but only came after Li Xian sent people to invite them again and again. This was actually the idea of ​​Li Zhi and Wu Zetian.

Since I can't kill, I can only endure it.

"Since Your Majesty wants to hear it, I will tell you about the time when I begged for alms from a wealthy family."

Li Zhi asked curiously, "Master, tell me, how did you travel around the world in the past? I have always been curious."

So I went there again the next day and used the ink made from turtle urine to write the four characters "Wealthy but Unkind" on the wall of his house.

Li Zhi was a little disappointed, but he still smiled and said, "It's just a trick, I'll just listen to it for fun."

The two old men ignored the secular world and devoted themselves to the research of the Taoist temple. As the saying goes, "no desire means strength." They didn't even have to give face to Li Zhi. They were considered true masters.

Turtles retain water in their bodies. Retaining water for a long time will leave a scale-like substance in the bladder, which is actually a kind of acid. Using pig bristles or pine needles to stimulate the turtle's nose can help the turtle excrete acid.

"Hehe, that's true."

Qingxuzi smiled and nodded, then continued, "The owner of the wealthy family finally got anxious and sent someone to find me. After some discussion, he gave me ten loads of grain and five pieces of linen, as well as ten strings of cash as a gift to send me off."

Xiao Yuehua said with some disappointment: "After all this trouble, you only got this little thing?"

Li Dan was also somewhat disdainful, but he said to Qingxuzi very sincerely: "If you need anything in the future, you can come to me, and I will definitely give you more than this."
