On the other hand, I found the small banner officer of the local Jin Yiwei and reported my findings, hoping to join forces.
Of course, the small banner officer was also very happy to have such an opportunity to make merit, and readily agreed.
However, the small banner officer reminded me that Master Mazu’s ability to preach so freely in Wuzhen is probably related to the local forces, and there is no idea whether there are any of them in the government, so it’s best not to disturb the government. Anyway, those in Wuzhen Yamen It's not very useful to catch a fast-track government official.
I think about it, and it makes sense. After all, he has been in the local area longer and should follow his advice, so I agreed.
Moreover, those ordinary bureaucrats who have poor skills are really useless.
The dozen or so brothers under me, plus a dozen lieutenants in Jinyiwei and twenty or thirty assistants under the local small banner officers, should be enough.
However, subconsciously, I did not tell him that I had sent someone to send the information to the capital.
So, after nearly half a month, I have been sending people to secretly search for Master Ma’s hiding place, but I have found nothing, which is a bit strange. It seems that what the little banner official said is reasonable. This Master Ma Zu must have colluded with the local forces, otherwise he would not hide so deeply.
As September is approaching, I feel anxious and helpless.
Just when I didn't know what to do, news came that Master Ma Zu was about to start the altar again.
After another six or seven days, Master Ma Zuo really opened the altar again.
I discussed the action plan with the local small banner officer, and the small banner officer generously gave us the great credit for capturing Master Mazu. They are responsible for siege and prevent accomplices from escaping.
I think so too. After all, it is the first time to cooperate, and each is responsible for each other, so that it can be safer, not to mention... After all, I discovered this matter, and I should give the most of the credit.
Thinking of this, I didn't postpone it.
I took my brother with me, just like last time, except for the second son who returned to Beijing, the other six people mixed with me among the people, pretending to be religious worshippers.
The other ten people guarded the four peripheral corners, and the local flag officer, with the most manpower, controlled the surroundings, and only waited for my signal to act together.
Such a wide range of nets, I must be able to catch it.
Soon, the altar started.
The same as last time, the smoke and candle tricks passed, and it was the preaching and incitement of Master Ma Zu.
It's just that it is September now, and he is obviously more anxious.
I was the same as last time. I just waited for him to leak out of space, and then pierced him in one fell swoop. This way, I can also prevent the deceived people from embarrassing with him, causing chaos and affecting arrest.
This time, Master Ma Zu had a new trick.
Master Ma shook the whisk, opened his palms, and said, "Pan Dao went back to the Heavenly Palace a few days ago and said that he would calm the earthly dirt for the emperor on the earth. The Jade Emperor was very happy and gave a scroll of immortal pictures as a way to convey the secrets of heaven. ."
He flicked the dust, took out a scroll from nowhere, and handed it to the villain little Taoist priest to hang it.
I saw a cow on the painting.
His hand-changing scroll is just a basic skill in tricks. He has long hidden beside him when he wants to come to the scroll. When he draws everyone's attention by swinging the whisk, he covers the movement of the other hand with the sleeve of his broad Taoist robe. , Take out the scroll, it looks like nothing, but in fact it is not a blinding trick.
I just don't know, what is the use of this drawing axis.
When the scroll was hung up, Master Mazu continued: "The Queen Mother was not stingy when seeing the treasure given by the Jade Emperor, and she also gave the fairy fruit. I hope that when we are successful, we can enjoy the fairy products together, and more people will see the fairy road. , Together to become immortals and enjoy blessings in the heaven and earth.” After speaking, he asked the little Taoist beside him to hold a clay pot, and then he took out a watermelon seed and buried it in front of everyone. In the soil.
Then he sprayed it several times with water in his mouth before the little Taoist straightened the pot.
"Although this fairy fruit is not as good as flat peaches, it is more suitable for mortals like you to enjoy." Master Ma Zuo twisted his beard and smiled.
"Ah! It's long! It's long!" There are good eyes, and I have already seen the strangeness. I saw that the watermelon seeds that were buried in the soil for only a while, unexpectedly showed a hint of greenness from the soil!
"Ah! Moved! Moved!" This is not the end, and at the same time someone saw the old cow in the painting, and he moved, his mouth lifted, and there was a small scroll.
"It must be a secret from heaven!" Master Mazu smiled and stood up before the painting.
Everyone looked at Master Ma’s hand intently, and saw Master Ma put his hand in front of the old cow’s head in the painting and shook his hand, flipping his palm, and a small roll of paper actually appeared.
"Ah! There really is a secret!" everyone shouted.
This does not confuse me, I firmly believe that it turns out to be a note, but it is just a trick. It should have been a note in his hand long ago.
Naturally, Master Ma Zu and others didn’t know what I was thinking. Master Ma Zu opened the note, but it was blank.
"Ah! Why is it blank?" Someone sighed with disappointment.
Master Ma Zu did not rush, and shook the incense burner.
"Ah! It appeared!" The person who had been staring at the note saw a few lines appearing out of thin air on the note.
Master Mazu smiled and said: "This heavenly secret is the completion of the fairy pen. If you don't supply incense, you can't see it."
"Patriarch! What will God handed down?" someone asked respectfully.
Master Ma opened up and looked at it with a smile at the corner of his mouth. He raised his hand and unfolded the note.
I saw it read: "September 14th, great things can happen!"
Master Mazu said loudly: "God foretells! September 14th, great things can happen! Everyone! It's time to serve God and punish evil for the emperor! The emperor will surely descend the immortal fate, and the emperor will reward wealth, September 14 Let’s clean up Wuzhen together, then go to Jiaxing Mansion, clean up the south of the Yangtze River, and then go to the capital to find the emperor for a reward."
Master Mazu held up the pot again, held it high above his head, and said loudly: "When the time comes, we will taste the fairy fruit together, and then offer one to the emperor. The emperor admires Taoism and cultivates immortals, and he will surely be rewarded!
In this matter, the watermelon seeds have grown small half-inch seedlings, full of greenery.
The people below are boiling! They actually have the opportunity to contribute to Tiangong and the emperor!
As long as you follow the sky, you will be prosperous and wealthy, immortal, and enjoy endless!
No one in the world knows that the emperor loves cultivating the Tao and loves alchemy. As long as the fairy fruit is offered, he cannot become an immortal. The glory and wealth of the world cannot be enjoyed!
At this time, I was still wondering what was going on except that note.
That note is called "Secretly Chuanshu" in Jinyiwei, and it is mostly used to convey secret information and the like.
But the watermelon sprouted, and what happened to the moving cow on the painting
However, looking at the enthusiasm, I knew that I couldn't wait any longer. If this continued, it would be even more difficult for me to pierce through it!
