"Um?"

After hearing Yu Ji's words, Wu Liang stopped immediately.

Could it be that this old man has really mastered the art of controlling people?

And do you really have the ability to help him deduce the location of the tomb?

Seeing the sincere expression on Yu Ji's face, Wu Liang was surprised but also a little convinced...

After all, as he said, Kanyu's art is different from other alchemy. It is a "science" that can be followed. As long as you master the rules, "dividing gold and fixing acupoints" as described in later generations is completely

possible.

It's not as metaphysical as the divination he pretends to do, or the methods of inescaping grain, breathing energy, returning to the spirit, etc.

but.

Wu Liang did not believe in Yu Ji.

It's not that I'm worried that Yu Ji will ruin Boss Cao's reputation by spreading rumors about what he did when he went out to generals. Boss Cao's reputation in this regard doesn't need to be ruined at all. It's already known to everyone in future generations.

Even not long after this era, a bachelor named Chen Lin published an essay called "An Appeal to Yuzhou for Yuan Shao", publicly condemning Boss Cao's evil deeds of specially creating a military commander in the mountain, touching gold captains, and robbing tombs everywhere.

...As for how it was exposed, it is hard to say. The soldiers of the Huren Army and the officials who knew the inside story could not control the mouths of everyone who knew the inside story.

At that time, Boss Cao was suffering from a headache and was in bed. As he was lying down reading Chen Lin's essay, he broke out in a cold sweat and suddenly got up. The headache suddenly recovered.

You see, this actually turned out to be a good thing.

And later on, Boss Cao didn't care about it at all. After Yuan Shao's son Yuan Shang was completely destroyed, Chen Lin, who wrote "A Propaganda to Yuzhou for Yuan Shao", joined Boss Cao. Boss Cao still used him and even praised him for his good prose.

He was ordered to manage the recording office, specifically to write military and state letters for Boss Cao.

Therefore, Wu Liang was not actually worried that Boss Cao would sanction him for exposing the Hu army.

A big tycoon like Boss Cao, who has been criticized for so many things and has so many lice but is not itchy, would he still care about such an insignificant thing?

He was mainly worried about his own safety.

Tomb robbing is a very risky thing. Nowadays, in the era of war, the heroes are divided. In addition to being careful about the enemies of the opposing camp, as well as the anti-theft mechanisms and traps of the tomb owner, you must also be extra careful about your teammates!

There is a saying that "wealth and silk move people's hearts".

People are separated from each other, and when there is a lot of gold and treasures in front of them, it is inevitable that there will be people with evil intentions, especially those who go to the tomb together. When the time comes, it will be hard to guard against a big crisis.

Like Dian Wei and Bai Jingjing.

One is a famous historical general who knows his roots well and is famous for his loyalty.

The other one is a stubborn tombkeeper, and he still has a fatal handle in his hands... Guangchuan Wang Liu went to the specific location and current mechanism of the tomb. Even if he was killed, he could arrange for someone to guard the tomb in advance.

They took the pot and completely destroyed the tomb.

Therefore it can be absolutely trusted.

But Yu Ji is the kind of alchemist who can only believe half of ten sentences. There are very few historical records of his character, and the records in official history are slightly negative...

Such a person really cannot be given too much trust before grasping his weak point.

Otherwise, you are irresponsible for your own life and career!

Therefore, even if Wu Liang planned to test Yu Ji's skills in the tomb of Marquis Haihun, he would not easily trust him, let alone let him join the Hu army to go to the tomb so quickly.

even.

Wu Liang thought for a moment, why not just test his ability to control people first?

Then they asked the soldiers to take him away from the scene and keep him under guard. They did not let him know what the Hu army had done, so as to avoid anything going wrong on the way back. This was the safest way.

then.

"What's so difficult about this?"

Wu Liang said with a smile, "But before that, the old gentleman must help me find the ancestral grave first, otherwise I still have some doubts about the old gentleman's ability to control people."

"It's natural."

Yu Ji nodded.

"In addition, I am afraid that the old gentleman will have to serve me for at least three years. Of course, these three years will not be wasted. I will teach the old gentleman a unique meditation secret. To be honest, the old gentleman said that when I opened my heavenly eyes and started divination

The secret technique took three whole years."

Wu Liang smiled again and said, "After the old gentleman opens his eyes, I will teach you the secrets of divination one by one. I will never break my promise."

What Wu Liang is best at is climbing along the pole. Since Yu Ji said that he can make any request, Wu Liang will naturally not be polite to him.

As for three years later...

Destiny!

Qualifications!

Just now Yu Ji mentioned these two crucial factors for "becoming an immortal". If Yu Ji's destiny and qualifications are really not enough, Wu Liang has nothing to do, right?

As for Yu Ji's art of being a master, Wu Liang was actually not sure whether he had the "destiny" and "qualification" to learn it.

In short, do your best.

As for why later generations also had the "Taiping Qing Ling Jing", but those well-known archaeologists could not grasp the essentials of the art of Kanyu after reading it, Wu Liang thinks it may have something to do with inheritance.

It is reported that this book originally had a total of 170 volumes, but it was already incomplete when it was circulated during the Song and Yuan Dynasties.

Eventually it was lost to later generations, and only fragments of it remained, totaling 67 volumes. Among them, 10 volumes were not "Taiping Qingling Jing" at all, but "Taiping Jingchao".

It was not until 1960 that it was copied and pieced together again, and the outline of 170 volumes was barely restored.

But this is no longer the original version.

It's equivalent to the fake secrets circulated in martial arts. If you don't say you can't succeed in practice, it may lead people astray.

"Thank you, sir."

Yu Ji nodded happily and continued, "Actually, I fully understood the chapter on the art of Kanyu in the Tai Ping Qing Ling Jing and used it for three years. It is even more time-consuming and laborious to master the essentials."

Sure enough, being old and not dying is committing adultery!

I've been here for you for three years, and you've been here for three fucking years, and you're not willing to suffer at all!

Then we'll see.

See who can laugh last!

Wu Liang secretly cursed, but did not show it. He grinned and said with a smile: "In that case, come on, please make room for the old gentleman in the carriage. Don't tire the old gentleman out!"

"Then thank you sir for taking care of me."

Yu Ji also waited for the bus honestly and politely. At his age, his legs and feet could not keep up with the pace of the Hu army.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing."

Wu Liang suddenly thought of something again. He smiled coquettishly and raised his eyebrows and asked Ji in a low voice, "Old sir, how much do you know about the art of the house?"

The "fangzhong" here refers not only to that kind of thing, but to a technique of strengthening the body, the key of which is to "replenish energy and nourish the brain".

There is also a more popular saying: "If you want not to grow old, you must also be smart with your brain."

To put it bluntly, when you do that kind of thing, if you master the essentials and tips, not only will it be harmless to your body, but you can enjoy it and prolong your life at the same time. It has a bit of a meaning of "taking yin and replenishing yang".

"This...to be honest, I only have a superficial understanding of it."

At this moment, Yu Ji has regarded Wu Liang as a "clear person", and no longer talks about the "hidden words" that ordinary people say.

"Come on, please tell me in detail, even if it's just a superficial knowledge. I really don't know anything about this."

Wu Liang decisively helped Yu Ji get on the carriage.

He forced himself to squeeze in next to Yu Ji, looking like a good student who "studies with an open mind"...

…

Nine days later.

The Hu army had arrived in Yuzhang County and used some food to find a relatively simple courtyard to stay in temporarily.

Yang Wanli and others also returned on time, met with the people sent by Wu Liang to the north gate early in the morning, and came back together to report to Wu Liang the news they found during the trip.

"A curse?"

Wu Liang frowned slightly when he heard Yang Wanli say this word.

Yang Wanli nodded and said seriously:

"Yes, I heard from the local villagers that when Liu He was relegated to the title of Marquis of Haihun many years ago, he brought 4,000 people to Yuzhang County to establish the country."

"In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Liu He built a city to accommodate himself and the 4,000 food towns, and forcibly occupied a large area of ​​fertile land cultivated by the villagers. Therefore, the local villagers were dissatisfied and eventually united to resist Liu He."

"Later, Liu He sent a letter to bring in reinforcements, massacred the local villagers while suppressing them, and threw all the corpses into the lake, almost dyeing the water in the lake red."

"It was also at that time that the evil curse appeared."

"At that time, the Han army was throwing the corpse into the lake. The sky suddenly changed color, the earth trembled, and the red lake water suddenly rolled. After a while, a white gas cloud formed on the lake, as ethereal as a fairyland."

"Then there was a loud noise, and a water dragon column dozens of feet high rose from the ground!"
