“It is true that the secret painting school’s methods are cunning and treacherous. Even now, they can be called a famous school. However, ‘the success is due to the Bai Ze brush, and the failure is also due to the Bai Ze brush’. How can ordinary people be qualified to use such a rare treasure?

Therefore, among the descendants of the secret painting school, except for Ma Liang and Mr. Sanjue (Gu Kaizhi), who chose to give up the Bai Ze brush and then rebuild it, no one else has achieved the title of Painting Saint (a title of the natural disaster of the secret painting school). Thinking about it this way, it is really a pity.

Afterwards, although the younger generation of the Gu family took an unconventional approach and figured out how to use their own blood to drive the Bai Ze brush, unfortunately, this method was tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. The secret painting school, which was once famous throughout the ages and on par with the three great schools, has since been associated with the "five deficiencies and three disadvantages".

Chapter 36 of "Tao Te Ching" says, "If you want to take it away, you must first give it to yourself."

The Bai Ze Pen in the past did make the Gu family successful. Although there was karma on it, the Gu family's fortune was at its peak at that time. Coupled with the protection of the fortune of the Human Emperor, this tremendous karma could only kill the ancestor of the Gu family in the end, and did not have much impact on the younger generations of the Gu family.

It's a pity that 'prosperity will eventually lead to decline'. How can a small Gu family violate the world rules that even dynasties cannot escape?

Luck can be reduced, but karma can only accumulate. It was fine when the Gu family's luck was strong, but once it began to decline, it was difficult to turn the tide. Even though the secret painting school produced several heroes in later generations, it was still difficult to change fate~"

As if he was thinking of something sad, when he said this, Zhuge An's originally sonorous voice dimmed again.

After all, the above content seems to be explaining the past of the Gu family, but if you think about it carefully, isn't it also talking about the past of the Zhuge family? And more importantly, does this have anything to do with solving Gu Xuanyan's "five deficiencies and three disadvantages"? Just when Zhang San'an couldn't bear it anymore and was about to ask for advice, Zhuge An, who was still immersed in sadness, suddenly woke up.

"Please forgive me, sir. I was distracted by the past. We still have time, so let's continue our conversation."

"You are too polite, sir. I am all ears!"

At this time, Qingshi Town was still being eroded by the underworld, but because of Zhang San's previous actions, Cthulhu was seriously injured, so it also restrained the spiritual pollution unique to Cthulhu mythology.

It is a bit ironic to say the least. In contrast, except for the still gloomy sky, Qingshi Town is surrounded by a quiet and peaceful atmosphere at this time.

For a moment, even the dark clouds in the sky seemed a little more pleasing to the eye!

"As I said before, 'Success is due to the Bai Ze Pen, failure is also due to the Bai Ze Pen'. How can ordinary people like us be worthy of using such a rare treasure? Therefore, it is only natural that it will damage our destiny.

And because of the long-term use of the Bai Ze pen, the Gu family suffered from a very special astrological disease, which is different from the "five deficiencies and three disadvantages" that appear randomly in ordinary people. If this happened to the Gu family, it would be what they feared!"

After noticing that Zhang San's pupils suddenly contracted, Zhuge An paused at the right time.

After seeing Zhang San gradually recover, he lowered his voice and continued.

“As the saying goes, ‘There are only aristocratic families that last a thousand years, but no dynasties that last a thousand years.’ It seems that aristocratic families are indeed very durable in terms of inheritance time, and even dynasties are superior in this regard. However, we must understand that no matter how long it lasts, it can only last a thousand years.

That person clearly wants to make the Gu family extinct, how can human power intervene? Although this statement is meant to provoke, if you want to continue your own bloodline, you should discuss with your wife and prepare to take a concubine.

As for how to solve your Madam's 'five deficiencies and three disadvantages', it is actually very simple. In addition to switching to practicing the three orthodox martial arts, all you have to do is seal the Bai Ze Pen.

It's just that I don't need to say much about how difficult it is, you should understand it too!"

Zhuge An ended his words here. Logically speaking, Zhang San should stand up and express his gratitude.

But for some reason, when he wanted to express his gratitude, even when the words came to his lips, the sound that came out was only hoarse.

Although the two have signed a marriage contract, if you really count, Zhang San and Gu Xuanyan have only known each other for a few days.

Since they have already signed the marriage contract, although Zhang San does not take it to heart, he will have to live together in the future after all, so it will not hurt to get to know each other better.

Thanks to the skills of criminal investigation, Zhang San had a very detailed understanding of Gu Xuanyan in just two days.

In short, apart from her own character and her obsession with "Bai Ze Jingguai Tu", Gu Xuanyan is a typical Jiangnan woman with a gentle and delicate personality and a love of poetry, calligraphy and painting.

If we take into account her love for Yaya, we can also add another adjective to describe her: "childlike".

No matter how you look at it, Gu Xuanyan is such a simple person. What has she done wrong? What crime has she committed?

She opened a tent to give out porridge and provided free medical treatment to disaster victims. There were many people in the world who deserved to die more than she did, so why did she have to die? It was not anger, but more accurately, it was pure doubt. Zhang San, who had a flawed personality, could not recognize emotions, but this did not mean that he had lost the ability to perceive emotions.

In a word, he was a little angry! Just when Zhang San was upset, Zhuge An's voice once again brought him back to reality.

"My Lord, calm down!"

“Hoo~Hoo~”

After taking two deep breaths, Zhang San finally adjusted his state, and then he showed an indescribable expression.

"I just want to know why. Why is this person her?"

Facing Zhang San's question, Zhuge An was no longer as impatient as before, because according to the results of the previous calculation, the time was up.

"Our accounts are finally settled!"

After saying this incomprehensible sentence, Zhuge An spoke again.

"I have said before that your heavenly stem belongs to the 'Kui' position. I wonder if you have ever been curious about the sequence of my heavenly stems? I also know that you are not interested in it, so I will just talk to myself. My heavenly stem belongs to the 'Bing' position, which represents the fire element. It is different from the 'Heaven Yi Ren He' between you and your wife. The corresponding hexagram between us is 'Huagai Bei Shi'.

Yin people are causing trouble and disasters frequently. They are natural enemies! After another stick of incense, the Shen hour will end. If it weren't for the protection of this fire-refined monkey (in Taoism, Shen is also likened to a fire-refined monkey), my body wouldn't be able to withstand the good fortune of "the favor of heaven"! "

Although he didn't know what Zhuge An meant by these words, Zhang San could guess the general idea just by looking at the literal meaning.

"Why?"

"Haha, this is fate. I also want to have a long talk with you, drink and sing, but it's a pity that I am not worthy!"
