……

Yuan Shikai devoted himself to worshiping gods and Buddhas on this trip, and wanted to have a "reassurance pill" before "enthronement and enshrinement", but he didn't want to encounter such a "snap teeth" on the way.

He was originally irritable, but as long as the 'eight-scribbling hu' on his lips trembled, he would have murderous thoughts in his heart.But now that the streets are crowded with people, he, the "lord of the present", can't lose his sense of proportion because of such a trivial matter. Besides, the other party is a group of children who don't understand the world, so he gritted his teeth and endured it.

The purple-robed Taoist next to Yuan Shikai is none other than one of his two protectors, Jiang Kang, a head-down wizard who "dissects the corpse and extracts the fetus" to refine and raise imps.He is also the junior of Bian Kui, the black wizard who 'refined the walking corpse'!
I have to ask, why didn't that side chief come?

I'm afraid I have to ask Bai Shibao and Yan Zifei, who told them to burn hundreds of Bian Kui's 'walking corpses' in Fengmen Village.This made Bian Kui angry, he threw away Yuan Shikai, and hurried to Fengmen Village to see what happened.

Here, Kui and Jiang Kang are from a foreign country in the southern frontier. They have worshiped the "Heijiangmen" since childhood and learned the methods of witchcraft.

To say that this 'Hei Jiang Men' has a lot to do with Miao Jiang's voodoo art. Hei Jiang's spell was previously used as a magic spell to 'punish the wicked', based on the 'four deaths' in the voodoo art 'Eight Grades' (Eight Chapters of Life and Death). It was derived from Zhang', but it took root and blossomed in South Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand and other places, and grew this kind of wonderful fruit...

Heijiang Gate, commonly known as Heijiang.That is to practice black witchcraft.

The essence of these wizards' cultivation is on the magical tools, and they often see 'human fetus ghost cubs', 'ancient tree spirits', 'corpse bones' and other altar items for people to hear about.

Spells are also divided into: urging children (raising little ghosts), walking corpses, lowering heads, blood sacrifices, etc.

These two people work for money, as long as someone is willing to pay, they will secretly use the method of black fall to help them destroy their enemies. Those enemies suddenly died suddenly without knowing it, which made Bian Kui and Jiang Kang Made a lot of money.

Now that I am with Yuan Shikai, I have no worries about food and clothing, and what I want has changed from money to territory.Yuan Shikai had promised the two of them that if he proclaimed himself the emperor, he would give them both the land of South Vietnam!This moved Bian Kui and Jiang Kang, and they desperately worked hard for Yuan Shikai...

"I see that the crowd here is noisy, and we are afraid of chaos. Let's move forward quickly!"

Jiang Kang whispered in Yuan Shikai's ear.

Yuan Shikai nodded, and ordered his guards to carry the children back into the crowd, then got on his horse and continued on his way.Now his elegance is gone, he no longer smiles, and no longer waves to the crowd, his eyebrows are slightly tightened, and he is sitting upright with a serious face, showing a chilling murderous look.

About a stick of incense time.

A guard ran back to report, "The fortune-teller who wrote the doggerel has been found!"

"Oh?"

The mustache on Yuan Shikai's lips trembled slightly, and he asked, "Where is it?"

The soldier replied: "I found a fortune-teller in the old town. He was hanging a flag with the three characters 'Shen Suan Bai' written on it! After inquiring, I found out that he really is the Taoist priest who wrote this doggerel! "

Yuan Shikai asked, "Why didn't anyone bring it here?"

The guard shook his head and said, "We put the gun on his neck, and he couldn't sit still. Later, when we got angry, we moved roughly. When our hand touched his shoulder, he didn't know what spell he used, and suddenly flew out. Many oceans came, and the brothers couldn't dodge in time, and were all wounded by these oceans... But the man said with a smile, this spell is called: Hades makes ghost money!"

"Huh? Does this person know spells?"

As soon as Yuan Shikai heard that there was such a man of Taoism, he approached him to work for him.

The guard said: "The man let me go back and told the emperor a sentence of verse!"

"What did you say?"

"If you don't know how to sleep in the well, you dream of turning into a purple emperor dragon, flying off the tall building and going down to the seaside. Nankeyi's dream is nothing."

"This……"

Yuan Shikai could tell that the poem clearly still called him a toad.But this time Yuan Shikai didn't get angry. Instead, he felt a little suspicious and thought to himself: With my identity, who would dare to swatt a fly on a tiger's head?Then I heard from the guards that the man could perform spells and injured several of their guards. Could it be that this man is really capable?These words seem to be implying something to me...

After thinking about it, Yuan Shikai said, "I have to meet this expert!"

At this time, Jiang Kang stepped forward and said: "I heard that the land between the old city and the concession is the wildest area in Tianjin Wei. There are so many people and evil things. I think it's better not to go there. The emperor, how can we afford it? Otherwise, I will take a few apprentices over to have a look to confirm the authenticity, and if it is true, it will not be too late to come back and report..."

Yuan Shikai pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "I'll go in person! If it's really a fortune teller, wouldn't it be a slight to him?"

At this time, Yuan Shikai ordered the guards to bring a satin mandarin jacket, and changed his military uniform, thinking secretly to ask the Taoist priest to guess his identity and test his authenticity.

Jiang Kang asked: "Now that the emperor is gone, what should we do with the sacrifice at Dule Temple?"

Yuan Shikai said with a smile: "Go and find someone casually, pretend to be me and go to Dule Temple to pay homage, and make it look impressive!"

Jiang Kang nodded helplessly, but left an apprentice by Yuan Shikai's side, and said, "You follow the emperor to meet that man, and tell me everything you heard!"

The man said: "Yes!"

The soldiers were divided into two groups. On this side, Yuan Shikai disguised himself as a businessman and waited for three or four servants, walking towards the old city with a pistol in his mouth.General Kang over there escorted the 'stand-in' towards Dule Temple.But Yuan Shikai didn't know that there were three to five hundred guards behind him, all of them disguised as ordinary people. They were ordered by General Kang to protect Yuan Shikai secretly with a guy in their arms.

When Yuan Shikai and the others walked to the old town, they saw a man sitting on the ground from a long distance, setting up a fortune-telling booth.

This man has red lips and bright teeth, eyes like lamps, a goatee beard on his chin, a round cap on his head, and a long gray gown. He is holding a bamboo pole with a banner flag on it. .

This person is exactly the 'White Taoist Priest' dressed up by Bai Shibao!
Yuan Shikai shook his coat, stepped up, politely bowed his hand, and asked Bai Shibao, "How much money does it cost to see a hexagram?"

Bai Shibao didn't raise his head, and while fiddling with the bamboo sticks on the stall, he replied, "Ten dollars for palm reading, one dollar for face reading!"

"It's all about looking at the same thing, why is there such a difference?"

Bai Shibao replied: "Ten fingers connected to a heart, you can see clearly, but a human face is good at disguising, you can't see your heart..."

Yuan Shikai thought it was interesting, took out ten ocean dollars from his pocket, threw them on Bai Shibao's stall, then bent down and stretched out his hand, and said with a smile, "Please take a look for me, please!"

Bai Shibao glanced at the palm, showing a surprised expression, and said, "Look at the vertical lines running through the palm, this is the vein of the emperor..."

Yuan Shikai was taken aback, and secretly wondered: "Oh? You have already guessed who I am?"

Bai Shibao looked at Yuan Shikai, nodded and said, "You are the current lord, the lord of the world, just forgive my cultivation of heaven and earth qi, you can't kneel down and worship!"

Yuan Shikai was filled with admiration.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Shibao said: "But...you have hidden murderous intentions in your palm!"

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"Your palm prints are chaotic and full of violence, but the veins of the emperor are cut off in two. I'm afraid the big thing won't happen!"

Yuan Shikai said in surprise, "Ah..."

Bai Shibao hurriedly said: "Although you are the current lord, you are destined to be a toad. Now you want to go up to the high platform to enshrine Zen and come to the seaside to worship. This is a big taboo! The verse I told you earlier is already a warning. is you……"

Yuan Shikai took out another ten yuan from his bosom, tipped it to Bai Shibao, and then asked, "I'm here for this, sir, please explain!"

"Since ancient times, emperors have had two major taboos! One is not to climb tall buildings, and the other is not to cross the seaside; those who climbed the towers had King Zhou of Shang who set himself on fire on Lutai, and those who crossed the seaside had Song Ruizong who died at sea because of unbearable desperation; these are all He is the king of a subjugated country, and it is a taboo for the emperor to go to the sea, so why do you insist on coming?"

Yuan Shikai said in surprise: "This..."

Bai Shibao said again: "Sir, have you heard of Zhu Di?"

"Emperor Yongle, Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di?"

"That's right! It was because he reached the estuary of the Gu River that he exhausted his ninety-five supreme emperor's aura and died a sudden death, and the prime minister in black who spoke to him at that time was exactly the way of Taoism. The person who has already had a betrayal confidant!"

"what?"

After Yuan Shikai heard this, he felt a little suspicious. Could it be that Bian Kui and Jiang Kang have made up my mind?
Immediately afterwards, Bai Shibao said: "When the city of Tianjin was built, many living people were planted under the city foundation, and all of them were buried alive with their heads down. This is called 'city town nails' to suppress the evil spirits in the city with the souls of the dead...you Do you know why you can’t find a road that’s right south and north, east and west when you’ve turned around in Tianjin?”

"Why?"

"Because the land veins here are not connected, it is a place where the emperor's spirit has been vented! You must know that the ground veins in Tianjin are connected to the capital, and they are all mixed with the king's spirit. They have formed a dragon into the sea! Dragon into the sea itself is a water dragon, but when the water dragon arrives in Tianjin It will sink into the depths of the ground, which will consume dragon energy, so when building the city wall, it will definitely not be able to keep the sea dragon, at this time it will depend on the living..."

"Is that the 'town nail' you said?"

"That's right! As we all know, people have yang energy, and the most abundant part of yang energy is at the top of the human body! The so-called yin and yang universe, dry is heaven and belongs to yang, kun is earth and belongs to yin, and dragon belongs to water. It is inherently feminine; Proper use of this yang energy can subdue the dragon to determine the universe, go up to the sea, secure the country, and do anything! Therefore, the middle-aged man with the most yang energy was caught, and he was buried alive in the root of the city wall with his head down. Leaving the body from the top of the head and ascending to the sky, the yang energy is also sealed forever, so as to restrain the veins of this city!"

Bai Shibao's mouth was full of nonsense, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

But here Yuan Shikai was amazed again and again.

He never imagined that the 'White Taoist Priest' in front of him was so powerful!

It turns out that this Binhai is a place to let off the emperor's spirit, but I just came here to pay homage, which is a crime!In addition, he said that I cannot climb a tall building to worship Zen, and the tall building refers to the Forbidden City!Doesn't this mean that I cannot be emperor in Beijing?

Yuan Shikai asked again: "You said that I am a toad and cannot climb tall buildings. Is there a solution?"

Bai Shibao said: "If you go up to a tall building to enshrine meditation, you will definitely commit a demon, and you will die within a hundred days! ... However, there is a method that can be cracked!"

"What method?"

Bai Shibao pretended to think, and said after a while: "There is an 'Eight Immortals Mountain' in the distance, and there are seven golden statues of mountain gods standing on it. If you are willing to visit before midnight, there may be a chance that you can get the true biography of the mountain god and change your life for you." ! At that time, there will be no taboos! Otherwise, you will never be able to claim the emperor's arrival!..."

After pondering for a while, Yuan Shikai asked, "Why are there only seven golden statues of gods on the 'Eight Immortals Mountain'?"

Bai Shibao was taken aback for a moment, then took a breath...

Countless calculations, forget about this shortcoming!
There are seven mountain gods on the Baxian Mountain, how can it be explained?
Lost one?
