Brocade legend

Chapter 319
After this, even my brothers were a little shaken, thinking that this Ma Zushi is really a first-class immortal.

But I am even more convinced that he is a charlatan, and he will not leave if he deceives people. He does not seek money, but gathers crowds instead. There must be a big conspiracy!

I, Yu Lian, have also been around the world for many years, and I have seen a lot of flyovers in the streets and alleys. I am not a villager or a fool.

What's more, I have been in Jinyiwei for so many years, because Master Ti Shuai Lu attaches great importance to cults such as the White Lotus Sect, and I have also learned some about those so-called fairy arts with the help of my experience when I was a gangster when I was young.

In the final analysis, it was just a trick of the rivers and lakes, a juggling illusion.

Although I can't see through all of Ma Zushi's tricks, I am well aware of two of them.

Especially when I met him for the first time, he played with the fairy egg to save people. At that time, I was more convinced of his identity as a liar.

The so-called fairy eggs are just ordinary eggs.

If you have a thorn in your throat when eating fish, pour it with old vinegar to soften the thorn and swallow it.

The same goes for eggs.

Soak the eggs in vinegar for three to five days, and the shells will soften.

Then put the eggs with softened shells into a square wooden box and soak them in water to remove the acetic acid smell.

After the egg shell hardens, take it out, and you will find a square egg, the so-called fairy egg.

The woman fainted, probably because Ma Zushi or his accomplice drugged her.

Then Ma Zushi pretended to be a magician and arrived in time to save people with fairy eggs.

In the Jianghu, there are many ways to administer medicine, some are put into food and water, some are covered with handkerchiefs, and some are sprinkled on people's faces.

The most amazing thing is the paihuazi who abducts women and children in the rivers and lakes. Just a light pat on the shoulder or on the top of the head can fascinate people, and even control their minds and make them obey orders.At that time, not to mention defrauding money and sex, it is easy to let the controlled people kill people.

Paihuazi mostly sprinkles the drug on the cuffs, so that it can be introduced into the mouth and nose of people to achieve the effect of hallucinations.

The prescriptions of these medicines are also different, and the effects are also strong and weak. The most commonly used names are Mongolian sweat medicine, lost soul powder and so on.

Its main ingredient is datura flower, also known as mountain eggplant and wind box.

According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, the medicine Mabosan developed by the genius doctor Hua Tuo, which was used to scrape bones and cut meat, and disembowel the stomach, was made from this compound.

That Ma Zushi, I am afraid that someone will use some method to captivate the woman first, so that he can perform.

The fairy egg was probably punched in the eye in advance, and the antidote was injected.Then use a special greasy powder to carefully paste the small eyes, so that people can't detect it.

This is probably why Ma Zushi carefully held the fairy egg in his palm.

The painting is to trap mosquitoes, and the boiling soup stands cold, although I don't know how to do it, but it makes people fart and makes people itchy all over, which is nothing more than the effect of drugs.

It is said that taking Jiangbian Mo'er and Tangbian Mo'er together to dry them in the shade and adding a little wine can make people fart.

It is also said that with some special medicinal materials, this method is also feasible.

Just drink some migan soup, or tea, and it will stop immediately.

And it's easier to make people feel extremely itchy.

I knew a prescription, which was an interrogation method passed down from Beizhen Fusizhao Prison. Although I have never used it, I heard that it has miraculous effects.

Take five coins of banmiao, one tael of Amitabha monk, one tael of water column, five copper greens, one catty of dried mangrove bark, and mix well.If a person touches this medicine, the itching will be unbearable, and the prisoners in the prison will even tear off their skin and flesh to relieve the itching because they cannot bear the pain of this itching.There are also those who scratch their hearts out and scratch themselves to death because it is difficult to control the desire to scratch.

Although I have never seen it, just listening to it and imagining the horrible scene makes me shudder and get goosebumps all over my body.I don't know how the gang of colleagues in the imperial prison endured this kind of darkness.

These medicines are poisonous and should not be swallowed by mistake.

Afterwards, if you want to relieve it, you can decoct one or two decoctions of licorice, mung bean, and silver flower each.

And when the Taoist dodged to avoid the villain's fist, he probably had already bombarded the villain with this kind of powder, so he turned around and pointed at the villain, which made the villain itchy all over.

And the antipruritic balls are nothing more than the antidote made of licorice, mung bean, silver flower and other medicines.

As for the seemingly miraculous transformation of an empty glass into wine, it is nothing more than one of several means of street performers and jugglers.

The most common tricks used by street jugglers are nothing more than "five ghosts carrying", "immortal picking beans", "empty cups into wine" and so on.

I really don't understand the mystery of it. After all, this is the cooking technique of others, and it will not be spread.

But at least I know that these are not fairy arts, but deceptions!

As for the ones I don’t know about, hmph, I’ll ask Master Ma in person if I have a chance.Especially the thousand cups of not getting drunk, could it be that he is really good at drinking?I am interested in learning this, and I will use it in wine competitions with my brothers in the future, haha!

These cults often use this method to fool the people and confuse people's hearts.

Today's emperor worships Taoism, and believes that he can become a fairy and get it, and he will live forever.

Therefore, the legend of folk fairy art is also very popular.

All kinds of fairy legends, anecdotes and strange stories are fascinating.

Especially some down-and-out people who have no ambitions in life, poor people, etc., are most likely to be attracted, even controlled, and do irrational things, such as - rebellion...

Thinking of this, I felt something was wrong, so I decided to go deep into Master Ma Zushi's Dharma altar to find out.

On this day, Master Ma opened the altar to teach the Dharma. After I contacted the local Jinyi guards, I took my seventeen brothers, dressed in disguise, and mixed with the people into the altar. When I seized the opportunity, I exposed Master Ma in person. The true face of the people to stabilize the hearts of the people.At the same time, capture the demon and dig out the truth behind it... Presumably there will be a lot of rewards from above!Ha ha!
I let ten brothers lurk around to prevent Yaodao from escaping, and then brought the remaining seven people to mix with the common people.

Entering the Dharma altar, I saw the villain who was said to have reformed from evil and returned to righteousness, also wearing Taoist robes, dressed as a little Taoist priest, standing on the stage with a peaceful face, and the futon beside him was empty.

There were hundreds of people listening to the lecture, and they all knelt on the ground piously, waiting for Master Ma to appear.

I was secretly looking around, when suddenly there was a thunder on the stage, and thick fog rolled out.

The villainous little Taoist priest in Taoist robe said loudly: "Welcome Patriarch!"

The people were all lying down, I didn't want to reveal my identity prematurely, so I had to use my eyes to signal the seven brothers to pretend to be pious with me.

I sneaked a peek at the stage, only to see the figure of Ma Zushi appearing in the thick fog, which really looked like a fairy.

But I secretly laughed, this is the same method that Master Ma used to disappear in the market that day, but it was just a cover-up made of gunpowder. My Jinyiwei has an old ancestor——Huang Feier Huang Duxian, this kind of It's a trick that really doesn't catch the eye.

But the common people didn't know, they just looked at Master Ma with a look of conviction.

Master Ma Zu is serious, honest and immortal.

I saw a few red candles in front of Ma Zushi, the wicked little Taoist priest was holding a candlestick with a red candle on it, and said: "Please give the fairy fire, Patriarch."

Master Ma Zu smiled slightly, and twisted the wick of the candle on the candlestick with his fingers, and the candle actually lit!
When the color of the fire burned, it was not the usual yellow flame, and the people were amazed and exclaimed one after another.

This is not over yet, I saw the little Taoist use the candle on the candlestick to light the candle in front of Ma Zushi, the flames are connected and colorful, and Ma Zushi is shrouded in a rainbow-like light.

The people became more excited and bowed down one after another.

But I didn't take it seriously, Ma Zushi twirled the candle with his fingers, just like ordinary Taoist priests pretending to be ghosts and lighting yellow paper out of thin air.

It is nothing more than phosphorus and sulfur, charcoal powder, flint powder and other things in Ma Zushi's hands and candle wicks, so that he can twist it with one twist.

And that rainbow light was nothing unusual, it was one of the tricks that Jin Yiwei had cracked long ago.

Ordinary candles will have a halo when put together, but use three kinds of bark, sulfur, and camphor as the powder, and stick them in the center of the candle. A few inches, the flames will automatically merge together, like a rainbow.

But these common people have already believed in Ma Zushi's magic, so they naturally have no doubts at all.Some people even exclaimed "Sanwei Zhenhuo".

Such an atmosphere, getting better and better, Ma Zushi began to preach.

But as I talked, I heard something strange.

While preaching, Master Ma was proclaiming that the world is corrupt, ghosts are rampant, and there are many evil spirits blocking the way in the court, so the emperor is depressed. Kill evil spirits!

This is indeed a rebellion!
I was thinking about when to make trouble, only to hear that Ma Zushi suddenly said: "Last time when I preached, the poor Taoist sent out an invitation, please join me in following the destiny in September, to do justice for the Lord of Heaven, and to cleanse the emperor. Xie, please keep it in your heart. If you want to follow my fairy family law, earn a trace of fairy fate, seek Taoism to become a fairy, and break free from the world of misery, please come to the same place when the time comes, and enter the world together with the poor, kill evil spirits, and accumulate Merit and virtue, together wealth and glory!"

Are they all immortals and still rich?I snorted, but remembered the important point, they will raise troops in September!

With such information, I dare not act rashly. I don’t know how many accomplices Ma Zushi has. I only have a dozen of them.

I waited patiently for Master Ma Zu to finish his lecture, and then retreated calmly.

The brothers were surprised. I explained my thoughts in detail, and they all felt reasonable.

This credit is a bit big, and the dozen of us probably couldn't bear it, so I decided to join forces with the local Jinyiwei.

Many years of work in Jinyiwei has made me habitually keep one hand, and the Jinyiwei we are on tour has the right to contact Beijing in a single line.

I sent my trusted second son, with this information, to secretly leave Wuzhen and return to Beijing immediately.
