Chapter 397 Yuan Tiangang's Deduction
As soon as he heard the strange noise coming from the jar, Jia Da was so frightened that he hid behind Xu Xiaoyuan, and the energy of cursing just now disappeared instantly.

Fang Zheng, who was tidying up a few foundations on the ground, walked over, grabbed Jin Huang's jar on the ground, shook it, and put his ear on it to listen.

"Little thing, I don't see that you are quite powerful, and you are not honest now." After saying this, Fang Zheng took out a yellow handkerchief from his pocket.

Chen Ziyang saw that Fangzheng's handkerchief was quite special. In addition to the very fine workmanship, a huge Yin-Yang fish pattern was embroidered with red silk thread on the handkerchief, and there were other talismans around it. Handkerchiefs are nothing.Then Fangzheng tore off the seal attached to the mouth of the jar, and instantly inserted the yellow handkerchief into the jar.

After turning left and right in the jar with his hands a few times, Fangzheng took the handkerchief out of the jar again.This time, Chen Ziyang saw that the handkerchief just now had been wrapped into a small package, and the bulging inside should be filled with ghosts.

As if very unwilling, Yin Ling struggled desperately in the handkerchief, causing the whole small bundle to move left and right, and finally Fangzheng tied the mouth of the bundle with a red silk thread.

After another cry of a baby came out of the handkerchief, Yin Ling struggled a few times in the handkerchief, and then stopped moving again.

"Give me this thing." Xu Xiaoyuan, who had recovered from the shock just now, said to Fang Zheng.

"This thing... what do you want it for? If something like Yinling is not handled well, it will fly out and hurt people." Fangzheng said hesitantly.

From his tone, Chen Ziyang could hear that Fang wanted to reject Xu Xiaoyuan's request, but considering the previous matter, he still expressed his worries and did not directly refuse.

"This thing is very yin, it should be able to make alchemy, don't worry, I have learned how powerful it is, I will be careful."

Hearing what Xu Xiaoyuan said, Fangzheng didn't insist any longer. After handing over the burden to Xu Xiaoyuan, he turned around and went to pack up the foundation sticks on the ground.

Chen Ziyang stared at the sticks carved with various talismans for a while.Fangzheng was originally a Maoshan spirit master, and Jin Huang was a Maoshan formation master.

But just now, in order to be able to trap Yin Ling, the identities of the two people were switched. Jin Huang went to deal with Yin Ling, but Fang Zheng arranged a formation under Xu Xiaoyuan's feet for defense.

It seems that this set of array bases can be used by anyone with a little mana in the body as long as they know how to manipulate them, but I don't know if they need anything to supplement after using it once. Not much, otherwise, it wouldn't lose its effect after being hit by a Yin spirit.

Thinking that this set of formations is a good thing, Chen Ziyang thought that when he had the opportunity in the future, he must get a set from Liu Cong, so that he would not have to piece together any formations in the future. Looking for magic weapon.

The two corpses were left in the tomb of a house near the observatory, and the remaining 21 people continued on the road, heading towards the row of palaces on the stone wall in the distance.

I don’t know if it’s because of the Yin spirit’s appearance out of thin air, or because the prophecy on the stone slab in front of the statue of Yuan Tiangang is too horrifying, the team moved very carefully along the way, and the speed was also very slow, until they could vaguely see the palace in the distance By the time it was time for dinner.

Zhang Linfu called Liu Cong aside, and the two murmured alone for a while, then Liu Cong decided not to allow the team to enter the palace for the time being, but to stay where they were and find a camp, and go the next day after resting.

Chen Ziyang knew that this was the result of discussions between Zhang Linfu and Liu Cong. They probably felt that the people in the team needed time to digest what they had experienced today.

Although there is this rare rest time, few people in the team can rest steadily. Everyone is thinking about the pattern on the screen that they saw today, wondering whether they should believe in the screen or not. above prophecy.

Wrapped in his sleeping bag, Yang Lei moved towards Chen Ziyang's direction little by little. His posture looked like he had turned into a caterpillar.There was no way, it was too cold outside, Yang Lei really didn't want to get out of the sleeping bag.

"Er Yang, is there any story about Yuan Tiangang's prophecy, I want to hear it." After lying down next to Chen Ziyang, Yang Lei said this.

"Why are you suddenly interested in these things? Do you want to see if Yuan Tiangang's prophecy is so accurate?"

"Yes, no. You can believe this thing, but you can't believe it all. As you said, people are their lives. If you can't fight it, it's better to face it calmly. I just don't feel like I can't sleep. , It’s a bit uncomfortable to lie down like this, and maybe listening to a story can hypnotize you.”

Although Yang Lei refused to admit it, Chen Ziyang knew that Yang Lei was worried about him.

"I don't know too much about Yuan Tiangang, I've only heard one story about his prophecy, and I can't sleep anyway, so I'll tell you about it.

Once Li Shimin held a banquet in the back garden for Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng.This time he invited two people over to let Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng calculate the fate of the Tang Dynasty.

While chatting during the banquet, Yuan Tiangang suddenly stood up and saluted, saying that he would recommend a talent to Li Shimin.As soon as his words came out, the prime ministers next to him were not happy, and even Li Chunfeng felt a little bit in his heart, which was a big taboo.

Recommending talents is a major national event, and formal procedures must be followed.Li Shimin had just established Datang, and the rules were the most important. Yuan Tiangang's words violated the rules set by Li Shimin.What's more, even if it is to recommend talents, it is a matter for civil servants and prime ministers.

At that time, Yuan Tiangang's status was low, and he was only appointed a minor official by Li Shimin, so he was not qualified to recommend talents at all, and the prime minister at that time, Wei Zheng, was also at the banquet.

However, Li Shimin was broad-minded and did not blame Yuan Tiangang, but asked Yuan Tiangang who he recommended and what kind of talents he had.

Yuan Tiangang said: The people he recommends are not ordinary. What they are best at is to figure out the psychology of others. As long as they look at each other for a while, he can guess what the person who is looking at is thinking.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng meaningfully, smiled and said nothing.Wei Zheng smiled and asked Yuan Tiangang who he recommended.Between Li Shimin and Wei Zhengjun and his ministers, they only regarded Yuan Tiangang's words as drunken gossip during the banquet, and didn't take it to heart.

But Yuan Tiangang didn't care about the attitudes of the two of them, and said on the spot that the person he recommended was Wen Bujie.I hope that he can make good use of his ability and let Wen Bujie assist in breaking the prison to solve the case. In this way, unnecessary unjust, false and wrong cases can be reduced.

Wei Zheng asked Li Shimin for permission to bring this person here, so as to help the wine.Li Shimin was also very curious, so he agreed.

Soon someone invited Wen Bujie to the palace.Li Shimin and Wei Zheng shook their heads secretly when they saw Wen Bujie.And Li Chunfeng, who was sweating secretly for Yuan Tiangang, also felt that Yuan Tiangang was a little confused.

This Wen Bujie's face is not kind, it seems that he restrains his father and his wife against his boss. Although he possesses strange abilities, he still has a short-lived appearance. He should not live long. How could Yuan Tiangang recommend this person to the emperor?
Wei Zheng was not polite either, he directly called Wen Bujie to his eyes, smiled and asked him to guess what he was thinking at the moment.

Wen Bujie looked up at Wei Zheng for a while, his eyes lit up suddenly, he hurriedly took two steps back, bowed and said: "The villain's unique skills are not sorcerers, but are born like this!"

Hearing this sentence, Wei Zheng was also shocked, he didn't expect Wen Bujie to be so powerful, he guessed what he was thinking right away.

At this moment, a court lady came up with a plate of dried apricots, but suddenly she tripped and the dried apricots in the plate fell down.

Wen Bujie, who had just shown his ability to guess others, wanted to show his own kung fu again. He quickly swayed forward, his movements were as fast as ghosts, and he caught those dried apricots that were about to fall to the ground in an instant, and put them back. on the plate.

When Wen Bujie put all the dried apricots on the plate, the maid holding the dried apricots had just stabilized her figure, which showed how fast he was.

This skill immediately stunned everyone, Li Shimin cheered loudly, took the lead in applauding, and ordered Wen Bujie to arrange work immediately.But after the banquet, Li Shimin sent someone to find Chai Bilong and ordered him to get rid of Wen Bujie!
Chai Bilong's "bilong" is his nickname, and he got such a nickname because of his superb lightness skills.It is perfect to send him to assassinate Wen Bujie, and only he can win in speed.

After the banquet, Li Chunfeng followed Yuan Tiangang all the time, neither speaking nor leaving.Yuan Tiangang knew what Li Chunfeng was thinking, so he smiled and asked Li Chunfeng if he thought it was rash for him to recommend Wen Bujie.

Li Chunfeng told Yuan Tiangang that what he did was not helping Wen Bujie, but harming him.

Yuan Tiangang nodded in agreement.Wen Bujie can not only speculate on other people's psychological activities, but also has superb martial arts, coming and going without a trace, such a person is indeed a very dangerous person in the eyes of the emperor.

Li Chunfeng thought that Wen Bujie would soon be bloody. The emperor didn't like him, and would be very afraid of his talents, so he would try every means to get rid of this person as soon as possible. He didn't understand why Yuan Tiangang did what he did.

Li Chunfeng thought that Yuan Tiangang saw Wen Bujie's rebellion, so he wanted to wake up Li Shimin in advance and let Li Shimin get rid of this person as soon as possible.

Yuan Tiangang pondered for a long time, shook his head, and expressed his thoughts.It turned out that after Yuan Tiangang's calculations, this descendant of Wen Bujie would gain power in the future and would steal the Tang Tomb.If Li Shimin treats him a little better now, maybe his descendants will be a little lighter when they attack the tomb of the Tang emperor in the future.

But Yuan Tiangang didn't expect Wen Bujie to show his lightness kung fu skills during the banquet.

At that time, Yuan Tiangang told Wen Bujie not to show off lightness kung fu, but Wen Bujie was eager to gain power, forgot Yuan Tiangang's entrustment, and even made a huge mistake.It was precisely because of Wen Bujie's lightness kung fu that Li Shimin became murderous.

Perhaps it was predestined in the dark that Chai Bilong failed to assassinate Wen Bujie. Since then, Wen Bujie has fled across the rivers and lakes, hiding his name.

More than 200 years later, Wen Tao, a descendant of Wen Bujie, became a warlord and led his soldiers to dig up the imperial tombs of the Tang Dynasty.

The Qianling Mausoleum where Wu Zetian and Li Zhi were buried together was not stolen by Wen Tao because it was too strong, but apart from the Qianling Mausoleum, none of the other imperial tombs of the Tang Dynasty escaped. "

"My boy, Yuan Tiangang's ability to predict the future is really not just nonsense." Hearing this, Yang Lei was a little worried.

"Actually, legends and stories are just fun to listen to. Don't take them too seriously. I estimate that this story is probably fabricated by later generations based on Wen Tao's robbery and digging of the Tang Emperor's Tomb, just to paste it on Yuan Tiangang's body." Kim, proving how accurate his predictions were.

If this matter is true, you can think about it in reverse.If Yuan Tiangang hadn't speculated that Wen Bujie's descendants would steal the Tang Tomb, then maybe Li Shimin would not have discovered Wen Bujie's talent, and would not have sent someone to kill him, which would have caused the descendants of the Wen family to be suspicious of the Tang Dynasty. If there is a grudge, there will be no such thing as stealing and digging the imperial tomb later.

And if Yuan Tiangang had directly told Li Shimin the result of his deduction at that time, instead of using this roundabout method, the result might have been completely different.Maybe Li Shimin will treat Wen's family well, and Tang Huangling will not be stolen and dug up.

So things like prophecy are very contradictory. Sometimes you know the prophecy, and this thing will happen instead, but when you don’t know, a possible thing may not happen, it’s entirely up to people s Choice.I think that's why the patterns depicted on the two sides of the screen are different.

Before, I thought that the two patterns on the screen were continuous, and the pattern on the reverse was what happened next to the pattern on the front.The basis for my judgment is the difference in the facial expressions of Zhang Taixu and Wang Dingqian in the picture.

But thinking about it now, is there such a possibility? The patterns on both sides of the screen are not a continuous thing, but completely irrelevant, referring to two possible outcomes. There is nothing to worry about. "

After listening to Chen Ziyang's words, Yang Lei pondered for a while. It was really difficult for his muddy head to think clearly about such a logical matter.After a while, Yang Lei pursed his lips and nodded.

"Good guy, I originally wanted to persuade you, but you persuaded me in the opposite direction. You are still amazing and think things differently from others. Letting you say this, I don't think this matter is a big deal."

Although the conversation between the two was not loud, it was still clearly heard by other people in the quiet camp.Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhang Linfu and Guo Huaxing smiled, turned over, and fell asleep soundly.
