Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 92
After Zhuge Wolong's explanation, Zhou Yu finally understood the whole story.

Speaking of which, Zhou Yu's research on "Book of Changes" is relatively deep.

However, Zhuge Wolong is a disciple of the well-known Zhuge family. For Jiugong Bagua, Qimen Dunjia is naturally not comparable to ordinary people.

Especially Qimen Dunjia is an incomparably mysterious thaumaturgy.

According to legend, in ancient times, when Chi You rebelled, Xuanyuan Huangdi was unable to attack for a long time, but suffered a lot.

Fortunately, the Empress Jiutianxuan secretly taught the Qimen Dunjia technique, and finally, Xuanyuan Huangdi defeated Chi You by virtue of the Qimen Dunjia technique.

Since ancient times, the Qimen Dunjia Art has been well-known, almost everyone knows it, but it is quite mysterious, and it is even hailed as the emperor's study.

Qimen, Qi is the Three Qi, which are B, C, and D of Heavenly Stems.

There are eight gates: open, rest, life, injury, death, scene, death, and shock.

Dunjia, with Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui as the six instruments.The three wonders and the six appearances are divided into nine palaces, unified by Jia, so it is called Dunjia.

Qimen Dunjia and Jiugong Bagua are inseparable and complement each other.

Qimen Dunjia covers thousands of things, including astronomy, calendar, war, prediction, strategy and so on.

But these are just appearances.

In fact, it is still a profound method of cultivating the heart, and it also contains thousands of formations.

"Book of Changes" is very popular among the people, and many fortune-tellers who set up street stalls like to put a copy of "Book of Changes" on their stalls to show their abilities.

However, there is no special book for Qimen Dunjia, even if there is, it is fake.

The real Qimen Dunjia technique is only in the hands of a very small number of people, and it is passed on word of mouth, and no written records will be left behind.

The Zhuge family is one of the authentic descendants of Qimen Dunjia.

"Master Hou, it's normal if you didn't see it, the opponent's technique is quite clever... Judging from the technique, he even has a little bit of strange skills.

He probably didn't touch Hou Ye's original layout, but arranged it secretly..."

"Thank you for reminding me, sir. Otherwise, I will show you the complete drawing first."

"Alright."

Therefore, Zhou Yu immediately went to the foreman to get the blueprint, browsed it by himself first, and then handed it to Zhuge Wolong.

"Mr. Zhuge, please take a look. I haven't found any traces of modification on the drawings for the time being."

"Well, the old man will take a look first..."

Zhuge Wolong took a closer look, and then went around the academy again.

Now, I have more in mind.

"The other party has made a total of nine changes, all of which are extremely inconspicuous or even insignificant. It's no wonder that Lord Hou didn't notice..."

At this time, Zhiqiu couldn't help asking: "I don't know how the other party's arrangement will affect it?"

Zhuge Wolong said in a dignified tone: "The opponent has not activated the arrangement here yet, once activated, it will be a yin-yang life and death situation."

"Yin-yang life and death situation?"

Zhuge Wolong nodded: "Yes, but the other party's technique is quite clever, according to the old man's estimation, it should not have any effect during the day.

Once at night, it will absorb a large amount of Yin Qi from all directions, making it pervade the academy.

In other words, the Yin Qi in the academy will far exceed the normal range by then.

It may not have much impact in a short period of time, but over a long period of time, students will inevitably suffer from exhaustion of yang qi and phagocytosis of yin qi.

The mild ones are bedridden, and the severe ones fall into a state of being possessed by evil spirits or even die. "

Hearing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but gasped.

He is very aware of the consequences of Yin Qi entering the body... In short, once Yin and Yang are out of balance, various abnormalities will appear.

Maybe some students can protect them comprehensively with arrogance, but hundreds of students will enroll, and most of them will be freshmen...

Once the situation that Zhuge Wolong said occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.

At that time, let alone whether the academy can be kept, I am afraid that Zhou Yu himself will cause a lot of trouble.

Zhiqiu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my god, who could this be? He's so insane?"

Zhuge Wolong also glanced at Zhou Yu and asked, "I don't know who the Lord Hou has a life-and-death enmity with?"

Such a question stumped Zhou Yu.

To say that there are enemies of life and death, such as the blind old man from before, and Luo Banxian and so on...

However, the blind old man has long been abolished, and Luo Banxian has already asked to beheaded.Besides, even if these two guys hadn't been abolished, it would be impossible for them to have such a brilliant technique.

After thinking about it, he finally shook his head: "There are indeed a few enemies, but I can be sure that they don't have such abilities."

"Um……"

Zhuge Wolong nodded slightly.

"This person's technique is indeed very clever, if the old man hadn't studied Qimen Dunjia a bit, it would be hard to see.

Lord Hou, in the opinion of this old man, the person who arranged this formation may not be Lord Hou's enemy, but entrusted by others.

It is not difficult to destroy the arrangement here, the key is, if the other party is not caught, maybe the other party will play tricks. "

Hearing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but clasped his hands and said, "Thank you sir for your guidance, I will definitely find a way to find out who is behind the scenes."

"This is the best way..."

However, it was precisely because of this incident that Zhou Yu had an unexpected harvest.

It also corresponds to an old saying: good luck and bad luck depend on each other.

Next, Zhuge Wolong stayed in the Hou's mansion for several days, perhaps out of sympathy, or perhaps out of intention to help each other, and quietly passed on Zhou Yu's strange art of evading armor.

Although it is just some basics, Qimen Dunjia is incomparably miraculous and all-encompassing, and it may be difficult for a person to understand it in a lifetime.

And Zhou Yu himself has studied Jiugong Bagua, and there are many similarities between the two, so it is not difficult to comprehend, and he can even draw inferences about other cases from one instance.

After a few days, Zhuge Wolong and Zhiqiu bid farewell together.

"Okay, the old man won't bother Lord Hou anymore, so let's take our leave and go to the rivers and lakes that we haven't seen for a long time."

Zhou Yu cupped his hands sincerely and said, "Thank you sir for your recent advice, I will keep it in my heart."

"Hahaha, Lord Hou is too polite."

"Zhiqiu, come and have a drink with Chang when you are free."

"Hahaha, okay, definitely."

Zhiqiu Le hehe clapped his hands.

After sending the two away, Zhou Yu went back to the study, called Mo Chou out of the painting, and told about someone's tampering in the academy.

Mo Chou was taken aback: "Ah? Then what should I do?"

"Don't worry, now I have also mastered the Qimen Dunjia technique, which can easily resolve the opponent's arrangement."

"That's okay..." Mochou breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned and said, "But, the other party must not be reconciled, and I'm afraid they will attack again."

"That's exactly the problem..."

A murderous intent flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes inadvertently.

He has secretly decided that once the perpetrator and the mastermind behind the scenes are found out, he must personally kill the other party, otherwise the hatred in his heart will be hard to get rid of.

"Who could it be? Is there anyone who doubts in your heart?"

Zhou Yu sighed: "I don't have a clue right now, because I can't figure out who would go to such great lengths to deal with me."

At this time, Mo Chou couldn't help but move in her heart: "By the way, could it be the Grand Master who came from Gusu Mansion last time?"

"Ye Kun?"

Zhou Yu couldn't help but blurted out a name.

Back then, Ye Kun brought a few people to Guobei County, intending to embarrass Zhou Yu.

It was a pair, and it was playing the piano, but it turned out to be a big somersault and a big joke.

Therefore, after being reminded by Mo Chou, Zhou Yu also felt that the old guy was very suspicious.

"Yes, from the young master's words, this person is very face-saving, but he lost face in the end. Therefore, it is not ruled out that he will do some crazy behavior."

Zhou Yu nodded: "Well, what you said makes sense."

"Then... how is the young master going to deal with it?"

"It seems that I have to go to Gusu Mansion myself."

The original owner had a classmate named Ge Dongming in Gusu Mansion, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and Zhou Yu happened to have an excuse to go to Gusu to visit friends.

In the morning of the next day, Zhou Yu gave some advice to Butler Wu.

Then he went to the academy to say hello, saying that he was leaving for a few days.

At present, there are a few recruits in the academy who have joined Zhou Yu's family to teach, and they are all selected by Zhou Yu, so it is not a problem to leave for a few days, even a few months.

After that, Zhou Yu and Ying Ning went out of the city together, heading straight for Gusu Mansion.

Gusu Mansion said it was far or not, and said it was close or not, hundreds of miles away.

At first Zhou Yu planned to ride a horse, but later decided that walking was more convenient.After all, his and Ying Ning's pace is not slow.

On the first day, I drove more than 300 miles, almost half of the distance.

When it was dark, I saw a brightly lit courtyard at the foot of the mountain from a distance, and faintly heard the sound of rowing orders, silk and bamboo, and laughter...

Zhou Yu paused to observe for a while, and couldn't help raising his hand: "Yingning, let's go and have a look."

"Ah."

Ying Ning nodded and followed quickly.

At this time, Ying Ning had already disguised himself as a schoolboy, while Zhou Yu was dressed up as a scholar on study tour.

Approaching the courtyard, there are two rows of long lanterns floating in front of the door, with a couplet written on it: Living in a natural guest, and a guest in a natural home.

It turned out that it was an inn, and the name of the store was "Tianranju".

But this inn is also strange, there are no villages and towns around, and the scale is quite large, it doesn't look like an inn at all, but a bit like a brothel.

At this time, Ying Ning couldn't help but frowned: "Sir, there is something wrong with this inn."

Zhou Yu smiled: "It's okay if it's not right, if it's right, I might not come."

Ying Ning looked stunned, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the master has already seen it."

"Let's go, since it's here, it's safe."

The two pretended to be calm and walked into the courtyard.

There was no one in the front yard to greet him, and he walked through an arched door into the atrium, and just now a waiter came forward to greet him enthusiastically: "Please come inside, two guests."

"Well, let's hit the tip first."

"Come on, please come with the little one. It's not just bragging. We have everything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, and grows on the mountains. Keeping the two guests will be a real treat."

Ying Ning rolled his eyes, and said: "Then my son wants to eat the phoenix that flies in the sky, the golden dragon that swims in the water, and the ten thousand year ginseng that grows on the mountain, do you have it too?"

Hearing this, the clerk's face froze, and he said embarrassingly: "This little brother really knows how to joke..."

He was looking at Zhou Yu's extraordinary bearing, otherwise he might reply: Even if there is, can you afford it?

Entering the hall, Zhou Yu glanced at it. It was really lively. There were twenty or thirty guests sitting in the hall, and most of them were from the Jianghu in their attire.

A few gorgeous women wandered among them, serving dishes, pouring wine, and teasing...

"What kind of inn is this?"

Ying Ning couldn't help muttering.

Zhou Yu patted Ying Ning's shoulder amusedly: "Okay, don't complain so much... buddy, in this way, you can arrange the food and drink for the two of you as you like."

"Okay, sir, please sit down and wait a moment."

The man responded and left...
