Shameless

Chapter 644: Tao, Tao, Tao

Views:

Yuan Quan was released on the third day after the murder of the Dragon King in Longtan Lake, Binzhou, was handed over to the Religious Affairs Office. Lao Ye personally went to pick him up and brought Yuan Quan back from Zhao Changlin of the Beggar Gang unharmed. Ji Xuefei was worried for many days and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he knew clearly that the Religious Affairs Office was behind the trouble, because it was the Beggar Gang who did it, there was no way to break up with Shen Zongyuan and go to the Security Committee to file a lawsuit without actual evidence. Li Muye planned to spread evil fire on the Beggar Gang. Bai Wuxia also has Zhao Changshan in his hand. From the name, you can tell that he is either a brother or a cousin to Zhao Changlin.

Lao Ye explained that the blood sycamores from the Beggar Gang had been planted, but the blood worm medicine still needed help from people from Xuanmen, so he agreed to Lin Zongfang to invite Xiao Yuan as a guest. In order to make up for it, they planned to use ten Changbai old wild ginseng as compensation. Li Muye refused and said, "Screw it." The specially assigned warehouse contains more than 100 kilograms of Jianggaolong mud. What kind of delicacies are there

Ye Hong advised again, Zhao Changlin is quite good at handling things. We are a department that deals with Jianghu, and it is impossible to solve everything by force. Sometimes handling a case requires not only strong strength, but also good information. The Beggar Gang has some advantages in this regard.

Li Muye could still listen to Lao Ye's words. After pondering for a moment, Li Muye nodded and said, "They want to make some amends, so I will give them a chance, but I have conditions. Ten old wild ginseng is not enough, and I want them to do it for me." I'm looking for a treasure called the Three-Legged Golden Toad. This thing is very cunning. I ran away from it twice when I encountered it in Coal City and E City. Doesn't the Beggar Gang claim to have thousands of members? Let's go and look for him. As long as we find him, I can even help them intercede and put Zhao Changshan back.

Ye Hong nodded again and said: "You are right. We cannot approach anyone in a strong manner. You have offended the Peng family. It is difficult to have friends in the temple. We cannot offend even friends in the world. Once they are clean, let them have a way to survive, and our own road will be wider."

Lao Ye's role in the Special Administrative Office is equivalent to that of a housekeeper, a mother-in-law, and a political commissar. The purchase of supplies must be managed, and young people must be mentored. Even when Brother Xiao Ye has a bad temper, he must teach him earnestly. If he hadn't been watching, Li Muye might have launched a major purge of the Beggar Gang in a fit of rage.

Yuan Quan came back, and Li Muye asked him specifically for details about the Binzhou Dragon King case.

There is indeed a formation under Longtan Lake, and Yuan Quan discovered it on the first day he arrived in Binzhou. In the next few days, he had been preparing items to break the formation and search for the dragon, but unexpectedly, Zhao Changlin plotted against him before he had all the items ready. Please go to a small county in northern Hebei to eat, drink and entertain me for a few days before sending it back.

Li Muye was curious about what kind of formation it was. Yuan Quan said that it was called the Decay Wave Formation. The Decay Waves were like weak water, but they were water but different from ordinary water. Decaibo is muddy water formed by the eruption of earth's air. No matter how much it settles, it will not become clear. If it is heated and distilled, it will evaporate quickly. When waves are mixed into the water, the water must be turbid, which can increase the buoyancy of the water and make it difficult for people to dive to the bottom. The formation of decaying waves will cause the water conditions to change unpredictably and have a visual hallucination effect. Those who are not familiar with water magic will definitely lose their way if they dive in hastily.

At that time, the founder of the Yuanmen School of Water Play single-handedly took on the role of chief helmsman of the water bandits on the Great River, the predecessor of Xunlongmen, and was revered by the world as the number one master of the water magic of the old dragon in the sea. The legacy will be passed down from generation to generation, and heroes will emerge from generation to generation. Yuan Quan comes from a family background, so when it comes to underwater activities, he is naturally very logical. Li Muye thought that the Binzhou Dragon King case was probably related to Margaret. Even if he couldn't handle the case himself, he would at least follow up on the development of the case. So it was decided to still send Yuan Quan and Ji Xuefei to Binzhou, this time not to handle the case, but to inquire about information. There is no need to contact people from the religious office. You only need to get to know the relevant local departments through Qin Xiaoxiao's relationship.

In the days that followed, Margaret lived at home openly. Although she respected Li Muye as her teacher, the actual age difference between them was only six years. Being together is more like a couple relationship. The public cohabitation did not arouse speculation among the surrounding neighbors.

Second Sister Chen has a good reputation in this street. The neighbors only know her as a civil servant, who talks kindly and treats others without any airs.

Even after his son Li Muye moved here, he continued his low-key style. He was an ordinary, ordinary young man. Keep a casual distance from the people around you. The street personnel register says freelancer. This directly put an end to the aunties in the surrounding neighborhood who wanted to protect themselves. In this day and age, unemployed people are called freelancers.

Margaret's teacher is not called for nothing. She not only teaches the art of tonic, but also teaches some basic knowledge of yin-yang and five elements. She is a very smart person and learns things very quickly. Li Muye has a limited amount of goods in his stomach. It was okay that he had little contact with her before. But now that they are living together, Margaret's thirst for knowledge will soon be unable to be satisfied.

In fact, she also has a teacher, the Wendiaolong of Xuanmen. As the third most important person in the literary list, he is definitely better than Brother Ono in terms of the art of Yin Yang and Five Elements. But the Wendiaolong never taught her anything real. The cooperation between Xuanmen and the Imperial Alliance was established with Mason of the Elder Council. Wen Diaolong accepted Margaret as his student just to give an old friend face. Now the old friend’s whole family has been killed by her. This teacher and student The fate is naturally over.

Highly recommended, it’s really good and worth installing. After all, you can cache and read books offline!

Margaret is a girl with a very curious nature. If there is nothing new to attract her, she always wants to run out. This will inevitably greatly increase the risk of assassination. In order to let her stay at home, Li Muye had to try his best to collect some ancient books and other books for her to read. The Shui Jing Zhu, Youyang Zazu, Thirteen Chapters of Huainanzi, Shanhaijing, and Ge Hong's Baopuzi not only satisfied her thirst for knowledge, but also led Xiaoye to review the thoughts of the sages and great virtues. .

In the following days, the two of them studied the Bible together and studied the scriptures.

At first, Li Muye just wanted to tie her up at home for his own protection, but later Brother Xiaoye gradually became interested in these ancient classics. He is a representative figure whose physical knowledge is far superior to theoretical knowledge. He has not yet understood many principles, but he has already learned his skills.

Brother Ono's biggest shortcoming is his weak theoretical foundation. I didn't think there was anything bad about it before, but after the last battle with Abe Qingkong, Li Muye became more aware of his own shortcomings and the abilities of the world's real top powerhouses. An intuitive understanding, knowing that there are people outside the world and there is a heaven outside the world is not just a matter of words. Not to mention Abe Qingkong, even the little-known Lin Guoyu who played against him in Pennsylvania was not easy.

Whether it is a martial arts world or a temple, strength is always the foundation for an invincible position. In his heart, Brother Ono is actually very eager to break through the shackles of the great master of taijutsu. But now he is a divine cultivator and a great master of physical skills. He has reached the highest level that ordinary people can achieve. It will be difficult to break through again. It is no longer enough to just explore and practice on your own. Absorbing the experience of sages and great minds is undoubtedly a shortcut. Regarding this point, even Bai Wuxia reminded him that there is a road to the mountain of books and hard work is the path to the mountain of learning, and there is no limit to the sea of learning and hard work is the boat.

Among the great sages, Li Muye especially admired Ge Hong. This person was a Taoist scholar of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, a famous alchemist, and a medical expert. His courtesy name is Zhichuan, and his nickname is Baopuzi. He is the great-nephew of Ge Xuan, a great alchemist of the Three Kingdoms, and is known as the Little Immortal in the world. He was once granted the title of Marquis of Guannei, and later lived in seclusion in Luofu Mountain to refine elixirs.

Ge Hong is not the kind of false immortal who comes out of the world to live in the world. He inherits and transforms the early Taoist immortal theory. In the inner chapter of Baopuzi, he not only comprehensively summarizes the immortal theory before Jin Dynasty, but also systematically It summarizes the magical alchemy before the Jin Dynasty, including Shouyi, Qi movement, Daoyin, and **. At the same time, it combines the magic of immortality with the Confucian Gangchang Mingjiao, emphasizing that those who want to be immortals should be based on loyalty, filial piety, obedience, benevolence and trust. If you don't cultivate your virtues and just practice alchemy, you won't be able to live forever.

He also integrated this kind of Gangchang Mingjiao with the precepts of Taoism, requiring believers to strictly abide by them. He said: Looking at all the precepts, it is clear that those who want to live forever must accumulate good deeds, be kind to things, forgive themselves and others, catch insects with benevolence, rejoice in others' good fortune, sympathize with others' suffering, help others in need, and save others. When one is poor, one's hands do not harm lives, one's mouth does not warn against misfortune, one sees others' gains as one's own gains, sees others' losses as one's own losses... This can be said to be a true saying every word.

Initially, Ge Hong was highly praised because he left behind many classic writings and paid more attention to real materials, which would take a relatively long time to study. Naturally, he was able to tie Margaret to the At home; secondly, Ge Hong was proficient in medicine and pharmacology, and advocated that Taoist priests should also practice medicine. These are what Margaret is most interested in. Later, Brother Xiaoye himself became very interested in these texts, and often asked Bai Wuxia for advice on many things he didn't understand.

Just like this, I studied the Bible behind closed doors at home, and before I knew it, more than a month had passed.

Although the case of the Binzhou Dragon King's mutilated corpse is still under investigation, a breakthrough has been made. The people from the Religious Affairs Office used a rather ingenious method. They used a glass wall baffle to isolate an area of ten acres in the central area of Longtan Lake, and then drained the water in this area, and finally broke through. Longmen's wave formation found the ground veins dug by the turtle dragon. Although the turtle was only injured but not captured alive, the rumors about the dragon king's troubles disappeared.

The Religious Affairs Office is currently looking for members of Xunlongmen. This is roughly what Yuan Quan and Ji Xuefei learned.

This time the Religious Affairs Office was able to win back a victory. Although the demon looking for the Dragon Gate was not caught, at least the secret of the Dragon King's troubles was solved and the rumors among the people were put to rest. We even caught several Shincheonji Church members who were spreading rumors online to cause trouble. The security committee bosses were very positive about the performance of the Religious Affairs Office this time, especially Lin Guoyu, who showed bravery in the operation to capture the turtle dragon. They looked at him with special eyes.

Even though Li Muye was sitting behind closed doors at home, he knew these things very well.

One day in mid-September, suddenly a shocking news came: the director of the Religious Affairs Office had been replaced. Shen Zongyuan stepped down to the second line as a consultant inspector. Lin Guoyu, who was in his early thirties, took over the Religious Affairs Office. From a private entrepreneur to a A big shot who is on par with Brother Ono.

After hearing about this, Brother Xiaoye looked at the haze in the sky outside the window and said leisurely: "What an eventful year it has been!"

PS: I took my children out today and couldn't go home at night. There is only one chapter left. I won't be able to come back during the day tomorrow. I will update at ten o'clock tomorrow night. (End of chapter)
