Rumors began to circulate that Mo Yan, who opened an antique shop, secretly loaned loan money for a marquis. Then they heard that the descendants of the Xie family in Chen County were his fellow juniors, and they were very close to each other. Then someone saw it with their own eyes.
I saw a rich lady from an official family investing money in the shop, and she spent a lot of money on it, so that she could run it and make a profit.
Shopkeeper Mo is really smart. He settles the accounts every seven days, and the promised interest will be paid on time. He spreads the word to ten and hundreds of people, and more and more powerful and wealthy gentry are interested, including the original exploratory investment.
The non-officials who had some money could not help but be jealous when they saw that the wealthy lady from an official's family had received a large amount of dividends, and couldn't wait to add more chips. The Mo's Antique Shop was full of people, but they were all wealthy officials who came to pursue profit, which was rare.
A client who is truly a collector of antiques.
In fact, this kind of deception has been used in ancient and modern times at home and abroad, and some people have been very successful. In the West, it is called a pyramid scheme or a Ponzi scheme, but in China it is more straightforward.
The scammer claims to have a way to pool funds for investment and make profits, thereby soliciting other people's funds and promising high interest rates. In fact, he only returns the money of late investors as interest to the early investors, thereby gaining everyone's trust.
, by investing more and more money, you can get huge income at the fastest speed in the shortest time.
But when investors really received huge profits on schedule, and saw others flocking to them, fearing that they would not be able to get on the bus, who would calmly think that there might be a scam? More and more receipts were issued by Mo's Antique Shop
, the money they received is also piling up. Wan Songling is a very cautious person. He does not want to drag it out for a year or two, and then run away when the defeat is about to be revealed. There are many rich people in Jinling, and the money he has defrauded will be squandered for the rest of his life.
That was enough, and he began to tighten the rope around Xie Luchan's neck.
On this day, after once again healing Xie Luchan's injuries, Wan Songling frowned and remained silent for a long time.
Xie Luchan noticed something strange in his expression and couldn't help but worry: "Master, what happened?"
Wan Songling muttered: "It's strange. I used my true energy to heal your injuries, and you initially showed great improvement. However, in the past two days, I found that your injuries are gradually returning to their original state, canceling each other out. Even if I heal you for a hundred years, you will still be healed."
It can’t be good either.”
When Xie Luchan heard this, she was like thunder, and she said in horror: "Master, what... is this going on?"
Wan Songling secretly sneered. Once such a demanding person becomes passionate, he will become a little crazy. For the sake of obsession, he will become unimaginable and even deny his relatives. What he wants is this effect. It depends on the situation, Xie Lu
Cicada is already trapped in it.
Wan Songling said flatly: "Someone interfered! What I am using is the Taoist innate true Qi Kung Fu passed down by Master Chang Chunzi. It is not something that can be destroyed by others. Please tell me carefully and let me know what you have been exposed to these days.
people?"
Xie Luchan said: "I believe that my master has healed me, so I no longer go out. In addition to painting a few paintings that have been decided by others, I just picked up the scriptures and studied seriously. I just hope that my body will recover and I can re-take the exam. I have not done anything."
Get in touch with people.”
Wan Songling frowned, thought for a long time, and then asked: "Who else is in your family?"
Xie Luchan said: "I only have one younger sister. She went to the countryside with my godmother a few days ago and came back only two days ago. Could it be that..."
At this point, his face suddenly turned white, and he shook his head hurriedly: "No, no, my sister... how could she harm me?"
Wan Songling's expression changed and he hurriedly asked: "What is your sister's birthday? Please tell me quickly and let me know."
Not to mention the daughter's family, even a man would not tell anyone about his birth date, but the matter was important, and Xie Luchan clearly trusted this fake old man who used the pseudonym Le Lingkong, so he just hesitated slightly.
, he told his sister’s birth date. Wan Songling stretched out his fingers, pretended to calculate, and gasped: “So that’s it, that’s it!”
Xie Luchan said impatiently: "Master, what happened?"
Wan Songling said solemnly: "It's strange, you are a Wenquxing descended to earth, and your sister is also a Wenquxing."
Xie Luchan was stunned for a moment, and then she said happily: "Is this happening? This is a good thing. I said that my sister didn't like reading very much since she was a child, but she is so smart and has a photographic memory of poems, books and articles. It turns out that this is the case. She is a double master.
Wenqu, I thank you for being so profound."
Wan Songling said in a deep voice: "Disciple, don't be happy too early. Although Wenquxing is in charge of literary fortune, he is more suitable for men than women."
Xie Luchan was startled again, then she stopped her joy and asked inexplicably: "So what?"
Wan Songling said: "The Wenqu star is yin and water in the five elements, so it has a peach blossom nature. The male zodiac is Wenqu, and his literary talent is elegant, and his talents are broad. The female zodiac is Wenqu, and she is self-willed and depraved, and has a watery nature. Moreover, Wenqu stars are in the same palace, so they have a good relationship with each other.
What's worse is that of the nine stars of the Big Dipper, seven are visible and two are hidden. Judging from your sister's horoscope, your sister was born when the evil star between the fourth and seventh stars of the Big Dipper offended Wenqu.
, so the hit brings bad luck.”
Although Wan Songling is a master of Fengmen, he is not completely ignorant of the knowledge of Jingzimen in "Five Flowers". At this time, he was talking nonsense, which sounded very reasonable, and frightened Xie Luchan, and asked in a trembling voice
: "Then...what then?"
Wan Songling said solemnly: "My sister has a very hard destiny. This is a sign of great evil, which is very unlucky for the family. The evil star has no effect on me, but it can restrain my parents and brothers, causing misfortune to the family one after another, and even...
…Violent death!”
"It's impossible, it's impossible, sister...how could sister harm me..." Xie Luchan backed away repeatedly, almost falling to the ground.
Wan Songling sighed: "Disciple, it's not that she is cruel and has the intention to harm you, but that she is born with a very evil personality that affects her destiny and harms her family."
"impossible……"
Just as Xie Luchan said this, she suddenly remembered that around the time her sister was born, her family began to decline. Then her father died of a sudden illness, and her mother passed away one after another. In order to save her sister, her leg was broken by a wheel. Isn't all of this a coincidence...
Xie Luchan was stunned for a long time, and her expression gradually became heavy and sad.
Wan Songling saw his expression in his eyes and said: "I am just a mortal, and I cannot control this evil spirit. If I want to get rid of this misfortune..."
Xie Luchan was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Is there a solution to this?"
Wan Songling nodded and said: "There are all kinds of disasters in the world that are insurmountable, and there are natural solutions."
Xie Luchan said hurriedly: "Please give me some advice, my teacher, how to solve it?"
Wan Songling raised a finger and said: "The simplest way is to die of my sister. If she dies, the evil spirit will not be able to harm others."
Xie Luchan's expression changed, and she immediately shook her head and said, "Absolutely not! How can Xie Luchan hurt her sister if she would rather die herself?"
Wan Songling said: "Master is just explaining the method. I am not asking you to harm God or your life. This is just a method. The other method is for your sister to marry a man who is even tougher than her and leave the Xie family.
, it’s not because of my family, so of course I can’t harm you. Moreover, that man is tougher than her, so he can restrain her and will not harm her husband and family again.”
Xie Luchan hesitated and said: "My little sister is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. If she doesn't like someone, I'm afraid...I'm afraid she won't marry."
Wan Songling sighed: "A woman's life-long affairs have always been ordered by her parents. How can she decide on the matchmaker's words? As long as your brother signs the marriage contract with someone, it has reached the government, and this account is also
Everyone recognizes it. Alas! If you don’t use this method, your leg disease will never be cured, and... it’s hard to say whether she will do any harm to your Xie family. The evil star... will kill you.
What's so strange about Xie's ability to overcome all obstacles? Fortunately, you are also a heavenly poet and have the protection of heaven, so you are alive today, otherwise... Disciple, think about it carefully, if you are willing,
I can help you search for a man who can control your sister's horoscope and save your Xie family from this disaster."
Xie Luchan staggered towards the door of his house. When he got near the door, he stood far away, but he couldn't muster the courage to move forward. The sister who depended on each other was actually the lone star of the evil that had hindered the Xie family? He didn't want to believe it,
But thinking about what the kind and amiable master said, and thinking about everything the Xie family has experienced over the years, he couldn't help but not believe it.
Wan Songling, who was quietly sneaking behind, changed his clothes. Seeing his hesitant look from a distance, he smiled slightly and gestured to Mo Yan's little follower Zhao Xiaohu. Zhao Xiaohu nodded and immediately handed over the code.
Two men dressed as scholars immediately came out, gently shook their folding fans, and walked towards Xie Luchan who was standing there in a daze.
"Hey, that little lady is pretty and charming. She's really quite interesting. I heard that her family lives in this area?"
"That's right. She is like a little fox fairy. She is the only one who comes to find men. Where can we find her? Brother Zhang, don't worry. In a few days, she will find an excuse to have a tryst with us again.
I heard that there is only one lame brother in her family, who doesn't control her very much."
Xie Luchan felt something move in her heart when she heard that, and she wanted to ask, but it was difficult for her to say anything. The two scholars did not take him seriously, so they waddled past him: "She let it slip once.
It seems that the person who calls herself Xie, who knows, but unfortunately she looks pretty, but is too wild, otherwise I would have really accepted her as my concubine."
There was a roar in Xie Luchan's heart, and it was just what Wan Songling said over and over again: "The heroine Wenqu is self-degenerate and has a willful nature!"
Seeing that the two of them were gone, Xie Luchan gritted her teeth and ran towards the door of the house. When he rushed to the door of the house, he saw an outsider leading several servants who were blocking the door and yelling. Standing in the courtyard were his sister and Nan Fei.
Fei, the two sides didn't know what they were arguing about.
Suddenly seeing him coming back, her sister showed a look of fear on her face and quickly scolded those people to go away.
This anger was really extraordinary. When I turned around and looked again, I saw that my sister was pale and frightened and silent. There was no need to ask anything. Is everything I saw in front of me fake?
Xie Luchan was furious and pointed at her sister and shouted: "You...you are so shameless and corrupt the family style, you...you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he fell forward, fainted from anger, and fell unconscious.
The officer seemed to be afraid of being involved in a life-threatening lawsuit. When he saw this situation, he cursed a few words and led his family members away in a hurry.
"Master, is this the person you are talking about?"
Xie Luchan looked at the big man behind the roadside stall with a sinewy face and a coat so oily that he could squeeze out two ounces of pig fat, with a blank look on his face.
Wan Songling said: "Yes, this man's name is Li Dayong, he is a butcher. There are four pillars in the birth date, year, month, day and hour, each with yin and yang attributes, one yang and three yin, three yin overcomes one yang, and we get five elements and one attribute, that is
One life; if there are two yang and two yin, if the yin and yang cancel each other out, we will get five elements and one attribute, and one life; and when there are three yang characters in the life, three yang will overcome one yin, and we will get five elements and two attributes, that is, two lives!
This person was born in the yang year, yang, yang, yang, yang, yang, sun and yang. The four yangs gathered in the cauldron, and he was destined to be blessed by God. Don’t think that he has a lowly career, but his fate is so hard that it only happens once in a hundred years. I, a Taoist disciple, has worked diligently and arduously to cultivate himself for a hundred years.
Only by enlightening the Great Dao can one attain the true form and become a real person. However, it is not easy for a person with a good destiny to become a "real person" when he is born! He has married two wives, both of whom died early due to the hardness of his destiny.
Only someone like your sister, who is destined to be lonely and evil, can achieve long-term success by being in harmony with him."
"Sister..., will you marry such a person?" Xie Luchan's mouth twitched a few times.
Wan Songling closed his eyes slightly, glanced at his performance, and secretly sneered in his heart. Of course he knew everything that happened to the Xie family. It was originally arranged by him, and the two scholars who were looking for flowers and flowers were pretended to be his people.
, that member of staff was someone Mo Yan found after searching around, who had been deceived by Xie Yufei.
Xie Luchan was a very family-oriented person. First, he knew that his sister was a playboy, fooling around with some dandy men outside, ruining honors, and not observing women's ethics. He also knew that his sister was colluding with others to seduce, deceive, and abduct. This dual
Wasn't the blow, coupled with her fate of being a god, not enough to obliterate the family love in his heart?
Wan Songling is well versed in other people's psychology, and he is fully confident that Xie Luchan knows about his sister's shameless behavior and money fraud. This hatred and sadness are enough to offset his flesh and blood affection for his sister. At this time, he wants to save his own future.
For the sake of the good reputation of the Xie family, no matter how long the struggle lasts, she will eventually obey her own arrangements. For such a woman to be matched with a butcher is a high achievement, so what else does he want to find fault with?
To marry that charming little beauty to such a butcher...
Wan Songling laughed secretly. Li Dayong did marry two wives, but they were not beaten to death by him. One was because he couldn't bear the beatings he made when he was drunk and committed suicide by jumping into a well. The other was simply beaten to death by him.
Bear it, packed up a small baggage and ran away with someone, and let Xie Yufei end up like this, it was a sigh of relief!
Looking at Butcher Li, who had a pair of bull's-eyes, a beard as thick as a boar bristle, and a fat belly, and was chopping pork stuffing, the smile in Wan Songling's eyes became even happier.
Xie Luchan's expression changed, she struggled for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth: "Okay, I will listen to Master, and let's talk to him about...the marriage!"
"How's the Xie family doing?"
The night was dark, and the green light illuminated Wansongling's green face, making it look a bit eerie.
Mo Yan said: "The Xie family brothers and sisters had a huge quarrel. That silly boy Xie Luchan slapped his sister twice. Xie Yufei wanted to hang herself. Butcher Li also found the village chief and the neighbor and forced him to have a kiss with the marriage certificate. Hehe,
It’s really lively.”
Wan Songling said with a gloomy smile: "It's not lively enough. When people find out tomorrow that our place is empty and all the people and money are gone, go to the house of my good apprentice. The powerful and gentry will use their talents and go away."
When Xie Luchan, the only person related to us, wanted to know our whereabouts, Xie Luchan had no choice but to commit suicide to thank the world."
He glanced at Mo Yan and Zhao Xiaohu again. They were all ready. They were carrying a big baggage on their shoulders. The money inside was heavy in the past few days. Wan Songling waved his hand and said, "While the city gate is not open yet,
Guan, leave now!"
Just as the three of them were about to walk out, the door suddenly burst open, and Xie Luchan stumbled in from the outside, angrily saying: "Master, Butcher Li obviously likes to beat the wife and force her to jump into the well, why did you..."
He saw the appearance of the three of them clearly at a glance and couldn't help but said in surprise: "You... what are you..."
Mo Yan's expression turned cold, he rushed forward, covered his mouth, and stabbed a knife into his chest.
Xie Luti screamed "Ah!" and fell down, covering her chest. Blood spurted from between her fingers. His wide eyes were full of horror and disbelief, as if she didn't understand whether he was amiable or respectable until her death.
Why did his master and his honest senior brother want to kill him?
Wan Songling frowned and said: "Why kill him? We are not trying to get rid of people in the sect. Our Fengmen kills people. We should kill people without blood. Let him be forced into desperation and seek death on his own. This will show our Fengmen's methods."
Mo Yan wiped the blood on the sole of his boot, inserted the knife back into his waist, and said, "Uncle Master, he will die on both sides. It doesn't matter if he dies today or tomorrow. Let's leave quickly."
After he finished speaking, he saw Wan Songling looking straight at the door. Under the weak light, there was a person standing at the door, but it was a playboy friend of Xie Luchan. He was looking at them in horror. When he saw them raising their eyes,
Looking at it, the man screamed and ran away. Wansongling couldn't catch up, so he stamped his foot and said: "Quickly, leave the city immediately!"
The three people left in panic, only to see a shoe left at the door. It turned out that the man was so frightened that he ran away. Not only did he forget to call for help, he even lost one of his shoes. The three people did not dare to delay any longer and hurriedly walked towards the nearest city gate.
Go.
The three of them had only left for a moment when the courtyard door opened, and the dandy who had just escaped walked in quietly, followed by someone who pushed him away, revealing a slim woman with a gauze-covered face.
He walked in, looked down at Xie Luchan who was lying at the door with wide eyes, laughed "Pfft", kicked him and said: "Get up, brat, are you addicted to pretending?"
"Xie Luchan" opened her eyes, laughed, jumped up from the ground like a carp, and said with a smile: "Aunt Xizhu, my nephew has done the most good this time, right? I feel like I play that stupid boy Xie Luchan every day.
I feel a little silly myself."
That beautiful woman was the lady of the official family who asked Wan Songling to exorcise evil spirits, and took out a large sum of money to ask him to make loan sharks first. She chuckled and said: "Are you very smart? Not bad, you can hide it. This guy named Wan has pretty solid kung fu. Let’s go, it’s time for us to call it a day.”
Xie Luchan carefully wiped off the only drop of blood on the ground and said, "Is there anything wrong with Junior Sister?"
Mrs. Xizhu said calmly: "Don't worry, those two girls are ten times smarter than you. The benefits this time are indispensable to you. What are you worried about?"
Xie Luchan smiled and cupped her hands and said: "Thank you, Senior Sister. Following Senior Sister is much better than following Master. Without any effort, someone defrauded countless gold, jewels and jade treasures and handed them over to us. Haha, how happy it is." !”
Regarding the city gates of Jinling City, local people have a jingle to describe it: "Thirteen inside, eighteen outside, with one gate pointing outward." This gate with the bolt facing outward is Shence Gate. Although Shence Gate It is located in a remote place, but it stands abruptly on the edge of Xuanwu Lake and is close to Baitu Mountain and the Yangtze River in the north. Once the enemy troops approach the city, it becomes particularly important in terms of military defense.
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty court adapted to local conditions and designed the place rather strangely. The city gate is inside and the urn city is outside. The urn city gate is not facing the city gate, but opens at the northeast corner of the urn city. To enter and exit the city gate, you have to go through the left and right door openings. On weekdays, only one is open. If you are in a hurry, please open two doors. Go out from here and head towards the Guanyin Gate of the outer city. Walking further out, you will reach Yanziji.
From there, you can take water and go to Jiujiang and down to Suzhou and Hangzhou. There are countless water and land roads along the way, and you can escape without a trace at any time.
Wan Songling didn't expect that Xie Luchan would suddenly come to him at the last moment, and Mo Yan couldn't hold back and killed him, otherwise he might be able to deceive him. Now he has already killed someone, and if his playboy friend doesn't help, he will be killed. He also woke up, and the patrol officers might catch up soon. He didn't dare to stop, so he led his two accomplices and just ran away for their lives.
After leaving Guanyin Gate, they also left the entire Jinling City. The three of them ran seven or eight miles away from the city gate in one breath. Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, they heard shouts of death from behind. When they turned around, they saw only more than ten people. The patrol officer holding a torch ran over quickly. Wansongling secretly screamed in pain and immediately ran away. He finally reached a small bridge. The pursuers were approaching. He drew out his iron ruler and pounced on him with a single sword. .
As soon as Mo Yan and Zhao Xiaohu saw each other, they immediately drew their weapons and attacked them. Wan Songling always acted according to the rules of Fengmen. He only used his heart and resourcefulness, and did not use force or robbery. He did not carry weapons with him, so he had to dodge left and right, and kept shouting. He shouted: "Go quickly! Go quickly! Don't get entangled with them!"
As he was talking, he heard a scream. An official was stabbed in the chest and abdomen by Mo Yan, and he fell on his back. However, during this time, two other police officers had already arrested him. One of them picked up an iron ruler and beat Mo Yan hard. On his arm, the knife in his palm was knocked off, and the other chain shook, locking him tightly. At the same time, Zhao Xiaohu was hit by a knife, and fell to the ground with a scream, and there was no more sound. .
"It's bitter! It's bitter!" Wan Songling was so anxious that he stamped his feet repeatedly. He didn't care about the life and death of the two apprentice nephews who had a slight friendship, but the money they cheated was still in their bags. A junior insisted on carrying it, perhaps out of respect for the elder, or perhaps out of worry, fearing that he, the junior uncle, would carry it and run away, but this time he was left empty-handed and his work was in vain.
Seeing those ferocious policemen rushing toward him again, Wansongling had no choice but to run away. He relied on his nimble hands and feet and his ease of movement alone to gradually get rid of them.
"Oops! Mo Yan was captured alive, and I was bound to be recruited as the mastermind. His grandmother's plan was clever. I not only cheated the Xie family, but also defrauded many powerful and wealthy people out of their money. I originally killed two birds with one stone, but now the matter has been exposed.
, another official died in the line of duty. Once caught, I will have no luck. In less than two days, the avatar graphics will have to be posted up. No, I have to escape immediately! Follow the Yangtze River, escape as far away as possible, and change your appearance.
In hiding, Jiangnan will never come back within ten or eight years."
While Wan Songling was thinking, he threw away his legs and ran very fast, like a lost dog, leaving the official officer holding the torch far behind.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Two policemen who had been standing at the very back of the bridge came over. One of them said with a smile and touched the brim of her hat with the handle of her knife. The red light of the torch made her pretty face blush.
It is Xie Yufei.
Another detective took off his hat, with a weird look on his face. It was Nan Feifei. She said proudly: "This fool, we deceived people in Fengyang, and he will come to us right away. Isn't that because
Is that his territory? And Jinling City is our territory. He comes here to trick our local gangsters. He really doesn’t know how to write the word "death".
Xie Yufei said with a pretty face: "Senior Wan worked hard to come from Fengyang, set up a plan with great effort, helped us make so much money, and then fled to the end of the world carrying the blame without any regrets.
.We should express our respect and admiration for these heroic men who rob the rich and give to the poor to do justice for heaven."
As she said this, she couldn't help but burst into laughter. Her smile was as beautiful as a flower.
It turned out that Wan Songling found his fellow apprentice nephew who he had met several times and asked him to find out about Xie Yufei. Mo Yan was deceiving someone in the family, and all his acquaintances were in this industry. As soon as the news spread, it was very difficult for him to find out.
It quickly attracted the attention of interested people. Just because Xie Yufei did not commit crimes, it did not mean that she had no connections in the local area. At least many of her master Nan Xizhu's fellow disciples were natives of Yingtian.
So, Mo Yan didn't find Xie Yufei, but was approached by Xie Yufei's elders. When Mo Yan saw the famous seniors from thousands of local sects coming to his door, Mo Yan didn't know who he had offended. How could he be willing to help Wan Songling in his panic?
Keeping it secret, he told the whole story about Wansongling. A man from a thousand families has his own tricks. Mrs. Xizhu would not use the power of the government to arrest him and put him in prison. In addition, she had retired for so many years and had nothing to do.
Some people were short of money, but they didn't want to go back to their old ways and deceive people, so... Wansongling was ruined.
Xie Luchan was sent to the Yang family in Moling Town by Xie Yufei, where he painted a portrait of Mr. Yang and Mrs. Yang under the euphemistic name, and then painted a screen for the newly completed Yang family's new house. The fake Xie Luchan and the real Xie Yufei moved.
He settled on the shore of Xuanwu Lake. In a dragnet, Wan Songling stood in the center and happily dug a hole for himself. Mo Yan and Zhao Xiaohu, two little liars who had taken refuge in Mrs. Xizhu, were fanning the flames and making suggestions for him.
, Mrs. Xizhu herself stepped in to add fuel to the fire, and today it was finally done.
Zhao Xiaohu, who was pretending to be dead, and Mo Yan, who was pretending to be captured, also stood up. A group of people were chatting and laughing. Unexpectedly, someone in the grass beside the road saw everything clearly. This person was the one who came to answer the question.
Peng Ziqi was looking for his girl all day long. He hid in the grass and watched, not understanding the reason for this strange scene, but the two people wearing business clothes clearly belonged to his daughter's family, but they were clearly
