Republic of China

Chapter 271 Dirty Water

The word practice is very, very big.

The muscles and bones can be repaired, the spirit can be repaired, the internal organs can be repaired, and if you wish, the sexual intercourse can also be repaired.

If we narrow down the scope and only talk about Taoism and cultivation, it is also very big. Men, women, old and young, ghosts and spirits, and all visible and invisible beings in the world can practice it.

What we often know is nothing more than humans and ghosts. Throughout the ages, there are countless legends about ascending during the day and spiritual beings becoming immortals, such as the great alchemist Zuo Ci, Nie Xiaoqian who cared for college students who were promoted to undergraduates, etc. (The great magician, the great prophet, etc. Counted).

So compared to humans and spirits, who is more suitable for cultivation? Or who can practice faster?

The answer is absolute.

people.

Not just because humans are the primates of all things.

People have higher wisdom, have deeper connections with the Dharma, and can mobilize more resources. The most important thing is that the survival rate of people is much higher. Animals can’t go to the doctor if they have a headache or fever, right? Just a little carelessness.

People are also bound by laws. No matter how leaky the laws of the Republic of China are, there are still people who kill people to pay debts and pay back money. However, wild animals do not have such rules. Maybe a fox that just cultivated some eyebrows will be swallowed by a big tiger in the next second. .

Even if a person takes pills and suffers from diarrhea, he can still be rescued and continue practicing. This is a person's advantage.

However, everything has pros and cons, there is yin and yang.

Once ghosts and elves activate their spiritual wisdom, their cultivation speed is definitely faster than that of humans. This speed transcends short life spans, extremely scarce material conditions, etc.

Because they have no mental internal friction, no countless desires, and no worries about gains and losses.

Finishing one thought, always maintaining abundant mental energy and concentration, and not having so many bells and whistles. This state is almost impossible for people to achieve. People will encounter various bottlenecks, barriers, and inner demons in their practice because of these, but For ghosts and elves, these things will be self-defeating.

Our ancestors also explained this truth thoroughly.

Madam, her mind likes to be clear, but her heart is disturbed; her heart likes to be calm, but she wants to be held in her arms. It can always satisfy one's desires, calm one's mind, clear one's heart, and clear one's mind. Naturally, the six desires will cease to exist and the three poisons will be eliminated. Therefore, those who cannot do it are because their hearts are not clear and their desires are not yet resolved.

The same is true for earth immortals, they are very pure.

When it comes to practicing well, practice wholeheartedly to accumulate merit.

When it comes to repaying kindness, you are willing to give everything without asking for anything in return.

No matter whether your kindness is intentional or not, and whether it is a beautiful accident or not, as long as it recognizes you, it will never betray you until it feels that it has repaid all the kindness.

This is the Repaying Immortal, an existence even more extreme than the Enemy Immortal.

As a result, many people begged grandpa and grandma to rack their brains to show favor to the Xian family, but the Xian family was not stupid, and Zun Du and Fake Du knew better than anyone else.

Having said so much, there is only one reason.

Keep your eyes open, your mind clear, and don’t be fooled.

When you meet that kind of person, just say to you: Oh my brother, you have such a great fate. Do you know that there is a repaying immortal? How many people can't ask for help? Let's establish a hall! A hall must be established! As long as you set up shop in your house, you will be sure to have a successful career~ The repaying fairy will circle you for any money or car~ What are you waiting for? As long as 98,000, the hall of Xianjia can be established at home~

Don't laugh, the success rate of this kind of scam is ridiculously high. There are many underlying reasons for this. Some want to get something for nothing, some think hard work cannot make you rich, some want to attract the envy of others, and some are just plain stupid. , anyway, I can’t finish it in one sentence.

No matter what the reason is, the big liar will try his best to mobilize your inner desire and make a big pie for you.

Note that it is easy to choke to death if you eat cakes in vain. It is not a big deal if you lose money, but you are afraid of eating something else.

So be sure to keep your eyes open, and if someone says this to you, remember to ask the following questions.

First, master, how are you sure that I have immortality? You can't just touch the top of your mouth and the bottom of your mouth, right? Do you believe me when I say I am your long-lost wild father? You have to tell four, five or six, which column has it, if it is there, it is there, if it is not, it is not.

Second, master, do you think I have repaid my kindness? So what kind of favor does it repay? When did you show mercy? Is it me or is it the kindness my ancestors showed to it?

Third, even if you really want to repay your kindness, you don’t necessarily have to establish a fairy hall. If someone just wants to repay you, wouldn’t it be a bit humiliating for you to arrange work for them?

If you understand these three questions clearly, you can avoid most big scams. Observe the other party's speech and behavior during the inquiry, and I believe you will have a certain judgment in your heart.

It can be seen that behind Ou Huang, there is Huang Taiping who is helping him. It is very difficult to live a life without stretching his hips. Huang Taiping is really working hard. If there are no accidents, there will be no problem in living a peaceful life for the rest of his life.

But again, Huang Taiping took shortcuts by seeking closure twice, resulting in a lack of tempering of his character, and it was unclear what the consequences of many things would be.

Later, the four brothers woke up leisurely and found that there was still white foam at the corners of their mouths. They were really smoked by Huang Taiping's fairy fart.

But now that they knew the ins and outs, they all knew that what they did was a bit hasty, and they immediately apologized to Huang Taiping on the window sill and said nice things.

"Da Xian'er, let's find an opportunity to scatter these treasures. If someone who knows the goods really comes across them, can the Ou family and his son still keep them? Donate them or sell them. Anyway, don't keep them at home. Of course you want to give them to us. It’s not impossible.”

Huang Taiping rolled his eyes at Lao Liu and ignored him. He was probably still worried about being poked in the butt, and gradually turned into smoke and disappeared.

Zhao Sanyuan squatted in front of Mo Wenshan with a serious expression.

"Master, business is important. I have sneaked into the Shimen branch. The master of the branch is a woman named Kong Xia. I can't tell her strength yet. There are two three-talented members and three point masters in the secret meeting. Kong Xia said there are nine altar masters who will arrive tomorrow, and the fish in this net are fat and plentiful."

Mo Wenshan nodded slightly, understanding that his little apprentice was a ghost, and if he didn't come back for a whole night, he would definitely gain something big.

Judging from the results, this is indeed the case.

The information previously obtained in Baiyun Temple was that Yiguandao was preparing for a secret meeting at Shimen, but the number of participants and their level were unknown.

"It's all stinky fish and rotten shrimps, it's not worth mentioning. If you ask me, you juniors don't need to get involved."

Zhao Sanyuan shook his head firmly, "Master, you are killing a chicken with a dagger. I understand this, but there are a lot of people on the opposite side, and that doesn't include the disciples below. No matter how powerful you are, you can't kill them all with one move, right?" So we must follow."

In Xiao Zhao's mind, Master is invincible. Master always wins and never loses.

But after all, Master is getting older and his legs and feet are no longer as good as before. The weakling of Guandao knows that he is outmatched and runs around, and Master has no skills at all.

Moreover, both emotion and reason must be mastered.

Blood feud can only be washed away with blood.

The death of Uncle Changxingzi.

The murder of Li Dongzhi.

Doumiao's niece's pain.

Lao Gao was seriously injured in an ambush.

He and the rabbit traveled backwards to hell and almost couldn't come back.

Mo Wenshan motioned to continue, "Nalaga, what do you want to do?"

Zhao Sanyuan chuckled and said, "It's all up to you, I'm just the outpost."

"Really? Are you so obedient? Well, I'll go over and kill them all tomorrow night."

"No, no, no! Don't rush to kill, Master!"

Mo Wenshan raised his fist as if to hit his apprentice on the head, "You are still playing tricks on me, right? If you tell me, just say it properly. Don't think that I don't know that you have a plan."

It is said that no one knows more than his father. Regarding Zhao Sanyuan's understanding, Mo Wenshan dared to say that he was second. Classmate Lao Kang would never dare to say that he was first. The bad boy who was raised since childhood could not be clearer about what was thinking in his mind.

Zhao Sanyuan put away his smile and replied solemnly: "I think it's better not to act rashly for the time being. Those bastards will have a secret meeting tomorrow. I'll find a chance to sneak in and see if I can find more clues, such as who killed Uncle Changxingzi." , where is the body, why did they plan to kill Lao Li, etc., I always feel that Yiguandao’s plot is not simple, and the web weaved is large and complex."

"Isn't it okay to capture a few alive and torture them?"

"It's difficult. Let's not talk about the Altar Master level. I've encountered a master who is tougher than a dead duck. I'm afraid I won't be able to pry out many useful things, so I want to be safe. I want to make good use of my fake identity, isn't it? Master, what are you laughing at?" "It's okay, you continue." Mo Wenshan was indeed smiling, a happy smile. He had seen the growth of his young apprentice. If it had been before, how could there be such nonsense? Just go in and start the fight, kill everyone alive and then kill them.

Now I know how to restrain my murderous intention and not be carried away by hatred.

It's not that you can't take revenge, but it's more cost-effective to use your brain to take revenge. Otherwise, the young apprentice will most likely experience the same fate he suffered back then.

There is no true winner in the world, and tigers also take a nap. Being bold alone is not enough. Only by combining it with careful special equipment can you have a better chance of winning.

Immediately, Zhao Sanyuan revealed the entire plan, and Mo Wenshan fine-tuned the details before it was finalized.

It was getting late, so in order to prevent Hu Zi from exposing his secrets, Zhao Sanyuan only took the things he could easily hide and rushed back. If he took too many, the chances of being exposed would be greater. It was impossible to go back carrying the trolls, right?

The brothers all know that the war is coming, and they are making preparations.

"Lao Liu, where are you going? You'd better rest while you still have time."

"I can't sleep. I'm going to take a look at the surrounding terrain. It would be too risky if I chase some bastard and get lost."

Kang Muang nodded, "Okay, then don't go too far. I have to calligraphy and painting some talismans. It's very labor-intensive, so I won't go with you. Oh, yes, remember to wear a hat. Your hairstyle is so recognizable."

Old Liu was speechless. He just made a bamboo hat and put it on, hoping that new hair would grow when he returned home, otherwise his wife would definitely go crazy.

The one with the weirdest behavior was Lu Xiucai. He stood by the well thinking about something, and after much deliberation he made a decision.

Do carpentry work.

He purchased wood on a large scale in the village, and then drew some kind of drawings. However, he was never satisfied with it and had many scraps, but he still did not give up.

Anyway, the brothers are all busy.

Only our Mr. Mo is the most leisurely. He is either touching the palm of this old lady or teaching the young daughter-in-law how to bake pancakes. He is not at all nervous or prepared for the impending war.

The smoke from the kitchen is dim, the water is green and the mountains are green.

No one knew that these outsiders were about to cause a bloody storm in Shimen.

Under the big locust tree at the head of the village.

The children were playing carefree.

Because of that pot of popcorn, the villagers' favorable impression of outsiders skyrocketed, and it was the same in the small circle. Xiao Shuanzi's status was rising. Today, several people actually recommended him to be Zhao Zilong.

The naughty kids are not stupid either. They know who they are good with. Hanging out with the King of Kids doesn’t seem as good as hanging out with Little Shuanzi. If they get along well, maybe they will have popcorn to eat every day in the future.

When the old classes are broken down, the ones who have the hardest time accepting it must be those who once had vested interests.

Although the kid king didn't understand this truth, he knew very well that he was very unhappy.

He could already imagine what the outcome would be if things continued like this.

In the past, Big Nose, Two Dogs and Three Donkeys were all courteous to me, and Xiaohua, Xiaohong, and Xiaojuan only secretly held hands with me, but they may all be lost in the future, and the most unacceptable thing is that he is afraid of being retaliated. From now on, Xiao Shuanzi will become a young boy in Shilibao. The new leader of the group must kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. This is what he has done before.

No!

Absolutely not!

So how to reverse the decline?

The choice of Kids King is easy.

Splash dirty water.

Only when you are dirty will other people's faults become less noticeable.

"Haha! Hahahahahaha! Has the secret been revealed?"

Your sudden laughter made the children look at you strangely, thinking that you are the only one who eats the most popcorn. Could it be that eating it has damaged your brain?

The Kid King walked up to Xiao Shuanzi, lowered his waist and stared into his eyes.

"you are lying!"

"Lie? What lie did I tell?"

"It goes without saying that your third uncle is not Zhao Zilong's friend at all. Since he is a friend, why don't you invite Zhao Zilong to come over and show us? Besides, Zhao Zilong's friend can pop popcorn? He is just an ordinary person, and you are a liar , your third uncle is also a liar, the respected elders in the village always teach us to stay away from liars, you are right!"

In one sentence, the naughty children couldn't help but distance themselves from Xiao Shuanzi.

The land of Yanzhao has many generous and tragic people since ancient times. Hebei attaches great importance to righteousness and hates liars who talk about cheating.

Therefore, the lethality of this sentence is strong enough. No matter how delicious the liar's popcorn is, it is still the liar's.

Seeing the remarkable effect, the Kid King was extremely proud. He straightened up and looked down at Xiao Shuanzi.

Very good, this angle is the most comfortable.

Of course Xiao Shuanzi didn't accept it. He argued hard, "You're the one who lied! My third uncle is really capable! He told me personally that he was Zhao Zilong's friend! He won't lie to me!"

Sometimes, arguments are actually very pale and weak.

The saddest thing is that Xiao Shuanzi never doubted his third uncle, whom he had only known for two or three days.

When a lie is compiled, more lies are often needed to fill the holes. I just don’t know if Zhao Sanyuan will regret it after seeing this. Of course, he has many ways to make the children believe that he is capable. At worst, he will get a few more fire charms. It's over, but deceiving a pure and flawless heart has a great impact on the child.

The kid king happily took out a few popcorns from his pocket and threw them into his mouth, "The little liar is helping the big liar to argue, do you think we will believe it? Forget it, because we all grew up in the same village. I don’t care, but today you are not allowed to pretend to be Zhao Zilong, you can also prove that you are not lying, we will wait and see~"

Xiao Shuanzi's face turned red with anger, and he clenched his fists tightly. What he wanted to say was stuck in his throat. The grievance of not being trusted made him particularly angry and helpless. In the end, he couldn't bear the knife-like eyes, so he yelled and rushed at him. I beat the crowd, ran all the way back home, hid in bed and cried loudly.

Ou Huang, who had just regained some strength, was not surprised to see his son crying like a kitten.

A child without a mother will definitely suffer some injustice outside.

"What's wrong? Are you being bullied again?" Ou Huang sat on the bed and patted the quilt.

But Xiao Shuanzi was very resistant and hid on the other side.

"Dad! Third uncle said that he is Zhao Zilong's friend. Is he lying?"

Ou Huang was stunned when he heard this and couldn't help but laugh.

As an adult, he certainly knows how outrageous this statement is.

"Are you hungry? Dad will give you a bowl of chopped green onion noodles."

The lack of a direct answer was another heavy blow to Xiao Shuanzi's heart.

He curled up in bed and cheered himself up word by word.

"Uncle San will not lie to me."

"The third uncle and other uncles are so good, they will definitely not lie to me."
