I'm the best catcher in martial arts

Who is the smartest person in the world?

This question is difficult to answer with quantitative data. After all, intelligence has many forms. Different people are good at different subjects, and it is difficult to distinguish between high and low.

Some people are good at reading and writing, some are good at machines and equipment, some are good at stargazing and divination, and some are good at drawing maps and measuring coastlines.

Who is more interested?

According to the standards of this era, those who study well and pass the Jinshi examination must be more powerful. Everything is inferior. Only those who study well can directly become an official.

According to Shen Lian's standards, masters who are good at mechanical equipment, especially those who are good at making muskets, artillery and other equipment, are definitely top talents.

If he had to find one person and regard him as the smartest person in the world today, Shen Lian felt that he would vote for Liu Bowen, he was a semi-immortal.

Liu Bowen's nickname is Liu Banxian'er.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood, he would call him this name, which meant that he was talking about private matters at this time. As the tone gradually worsened, it meant that his mood became worse.

Ban Xianer → Bowen → Liu Bowen → Liu Ji!

It's almost this kind of progressive relationship, with different titles such as Old Fox, Liu Laojiao, and Qingtian Man mixed in during the period, which represent Lao Zhu's changes in mood.

Liu Bowen's mansion is not luxurious.

On the one hand, he keeps a low profile to protect himself, but on the other hand, he has no ambitions. What a person like him needs is spiritual comfort, not material wealth.

Of course, no matter how indifferent Mingzhi is, eating, drinking and eating are still necessary. Liu Bowen finished his official duties and wanted to enjoy a supper in peace. When he got home, he found Shen Lian sitting on his chair, sucking pork shreds and cutting noodles with a knife.

A large bowl full of shredded pork noodles entered Shen Lian's belly at a speed visible to the naked eye, along with the fruit plate and Qingtian Shaobing prepared by the bookboy Xiaoliuzi.

Liu Bowen's face turned blue and purple. He felt that he should turn off the engine, activate the eight-door golden lock formation, and then change the formation three times to create the eight formations of Wuhou.

Shen Lian smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, you are a really good scholar. Your noodles are very chewy. I remember you are from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Why do you like noodles?"

Liu Bowen's eyes flashed.

Shen Lian's words were definitely not to tease him, but to send him a signal to talk about something private.

"Marquis Huwei, you should know that I am not a generous person. Your Majesty ate my noodles and you still want to pay us back the steamed buns. How can you compensate me?"

"I know the rules, this is for you!"

Shen Lian handed the memorial to Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen calmly accepted the memorial, calmly asked the scholar Xiao Liuzi to go back to rest, calmly invited Shen Lian to the study, and calmly sat on the chair.

Calmly...wipe the cold sweat off your face!

"The plan to kill the gods is really a good idea. They almost succeeded back then. I thought they gave up. I didn't expect that after so many years, they are still planning it."

"Liu Banxian'er, what's going on?"

"Alas! The so-called killing of the gods is aimed at the replacement of the throne. Wu Sidao, an old fox, wants to recreate the scene of internal fighting between the nine sons in the Ming Dynasty."

Liu Bowen shook his feather fan: "Back then, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had the opportunity to swallow up the Jin Kingdom, and even the Liao Kingdom, and unify the entire northern Xinjiang. However, the princes fought among themselves and several princes undermined each other, which wasted the good situation."

The Manchus did have this opportunity back then, and they were even close to succeeding. Unfortunately, in order to gain more power, the Eighth Prince made a big fuss about food and grass.

At the most intense moment of the battle between the two armies, there was a problem with food and grass, which led to a great loss of morale. Guo Xiazao, a fierce general of the Jin Kingdom, seized the opportunity and created the Qing Dynasty in one fell swoop.

If Yongzheng had not gone through many mediations and recommended that all parties were satisfied with the Fourteenth Prince as the general king, and barely stabilized the remaining defeated troops, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The Eighth Prince thought he had taken advantage, but he didn't want Yongzheng to arrive first and seize the most benefits.

Not only did he stabilize the situation and make great contributions, but he also removed the two powerful brothers from the list of heirs to the throne. He even placed the chess pieces in advance so that Nian Gengyao could control the food and fodder of the Fourteenth Prince. Even if the Fourteenth Prince wanted to rebel, he would not be able to do so. There is no food supply.

This matter involves the Fourth Prince, the Eighth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince, the Fourteenth Prince and many other princes. Whether it is the exchange of interests or the deliberate design, there are countless flashes of wisdom, and it is the favorite of many wise men.

Liu Bowen even asserted that since Yongzheng recommended the fourteenth prince as the general king, the struggle for the title of the nine sons has officially come to an end, and he has defeated all opponents.

Liu Bowen reviewed these things many times, and he admired Wu Sidao, the counselor under Yongzheng who was able to manipulate people horizontally and horizontally, leverage his strength, and hunt cattle across mountains.

Although the two were thousands of miles apart, they had played against each other 20 or 30 times, and three of them were impressive. Liu Bowen won two and lost one, temporarily occupying a partial advantage.

It is also a kind of fun to arrange each other's plans, compete with each other, and use Sticky Stick Department and Jin Yiwei as a chess game.

Originally, these things were all secrets, but now that Shen Lian came to visit, Liu Bowen knew in his heart that Lao Zhu was urging him to take action quickly and even found an opportunity for him.

——Next winter, Jade Rakshasa’s plan!

This matter is not a secret at the top.

Jade Rakshasa asked Shen Lian for help because he had greeted Shi Yanwen. Shen Lian had caused so many things in the Western Region, and Jade Rakshasa had contributed to it.

Liu Bowen took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "This tea is a bit cold, help me warm it up."

Shen Lian held up the cup, circulated his Qi, made the tea warm, and signaled Liu Bowen to tell a story.

"Wu Sidao's game is divided into two parts.

The first is Your Majesty. You should know that Your Majesty is a top martial arts master. You can find a way to find someone to duel with Your Majesty and let Your Majesty break the void.

The target of Wu Sidao's calculation was Zhenren Zhang.

In the 20th year of Hongwu's reign, His Majesty's sixtieth birthday, Master Zhang waved his hand to open the Heavenly Gate, shattering the void, but His Majesty remained unmoved, completely untouched.

From that moment on, Wu Sidao knew that this plan had failed. His Majesty is the emperor, and his heart is boundless. He is both extremely ruthless and extremely greedy, and will never let go of his obsession.

He changed his mind. Since he couldn't force His Majesty to break the void, he would make it impossible for His Majesty to leave.

With His Majesty's peerless martial arts, he still has at least thirty or forty years to live. Can the princes endure it?

Isn't the reason why the nine sons of the Manchu Qing Dynasty seized the throne because they were crown princes for forty years? This is unbearable. What if the prince cannot bear it and respectfully asks your majesty to abdicate?

What do you think will happen?

This is an attack on His Majesty's heart.

The second scheming person is the prince.

On the one hand, he sent someone to assassinate the prince or make the prince sick. For this reason, His Majesty moved the Yaowang Valley and asked Shi Yanwen to be the prince's tutor to protect the prince personally.

On the one hand, it is to enhance the ambitions of the princes, such as the thirteen murderers under the command of King Qin, and on the other hand, it is to create opportunities for the fourth prince to lead troops and enhance his prestige.

You may not know that you, intentionally or unintentionally, foiled many of Wu Sidao's plans.

For example, the counterfeit banknote case in Jinan involved the Qinglong Society, the Power Gang, and the second prince.

For example, the Di Qinglin case involved the Jinyi Guards, the Honorable Forces, the Western Region Forces, and the Destiny Sect. The Langshan bandits you wiped out have already surrendered to the Third Prince.

For example, the Murong family rebelled. If Murong Bo had lived a few more years and united with the Demon Sword family, plus Murong Qiudi, what would have happened in the Western Regions?

For example, the Qinglong Club, this matter... This matter has little to do with you, mainly Lu Xiaofeng.

For example, Tangmen and the Twelve Links Waterway involve many forces. They seem to be independent of each other, but they unknowingly and silently affect the current situation. "

Liu Bowen said calmly: "Wu Sidao's plan is about to succeed, because he discovered that His Majesty's seventieth birthday is the final limit, and all the plans will break out at that time. Life or death depends on fate."

Shen Lian joked: "Mr. Liu, how can a wise man like you talk about destiny? This is not what you should say. You should be wise."

Liu Bowen rolled his eyes at Shen Lian: "The plan is to do the best for everyone and obey the destiny. I am as powerful as Zhuge Wuhou, but I am powerless. Do you think I am a god?"

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Liu, have you ever heard of the saying that Zhuge Liang divides the world into three parts and dominates the country, Liu Bowen, you are a semi-immortal!"

Liu Bowen stretched out his feather fan to block Shen Lian's unrestrained mouth, and jumped up and down: "Be careful what you say! Be careful what you say! I only have a few taels in my head, and I know very well that there is no need for Your Majesty to chop it off and put it on the scale to weigh it." "

Shen Lian curled his lips and said with a smile: "Do you have any countermeasures? Tell me about it! His Majesty asked me to deliver a message to you, so he obviously asked me to help."

Liu Bowen said: "Shen Lian, they say that people who practice martial arts should not have too many worries, otherwise their selfish desires will be too strong to break the void. Are you sure you want to do this? This is a twenty-year plan that involves the fate of the dynasty."

Shen Lian patted his sleeves lightly: "This is the difference between you and Your Majesty. Your Majesty has long seen that the more I experience these things, the easier it is to shatter the void."

"Why?"

"Because this way I can let go of my worries!"

Of course, Shen Lian had concerns in his heart. In addition to his lovely wife, concubines, disciples and children, there were also the people of the Central Plains.

The previous attack on Japan removed the biggest obstacle.

If Liu Bowen's plan can cause serious damage to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Shen Lian will no longer have any worries at the dynasty level and can pursue the way of heaven with peace of mind.

Shen Lian is a replica of Li Chimei, except that Li Chimei was born in the late Yuan Dynasty and Shen Lian grew up in the early Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang had long seen these things, so Shen Lian had the official position of General Huwei and could lead troops on expeditions. Lao Zhu gave the green light to overstep his authority.

The stronger the Ming Dynasty, the less worries Shen Lian has.

The fewer obstacles there are, the faster the progress in martial arts.

At the same time, Shen Lian is by no means a heartless person. He not only wants to arrange for his wife, concubines, and children, but also pays back favors. He has been a martial god who protects the country for more than ten years and suppresses martial arts luck.

Shen Lian's Shattering of the Void is a martial arts myth, which is of great benefit to the Ming Dynasty's martial arts.

Shen Lian was broken and failed, so he stayed in the imperial court. Before Shen Lian died, the imperial court would never lack masters who reached the top, and could cultivate more masters.

No matter how you calculate it, Daming will not suffer.

Of course, Shen Lian didn't suffer either!

Everyone gets what they need, everyone gets something, and everyone enjoys it.

This is called...a win-win!

Liu Bowen's face flashed with respect.

Of course he knew what Shen Lian's words meant.

Who is the representative figure of Mengyuan Wulin?

Li Chimei!

Even if Li Chimei died, the Meng Yuan warriors would still worship Li Chimei because he had given so much.

Why is Guo Bujing Guo Juxia?

Because of his dedication, he deserves this title.

Liu Bowen sighed: "Now that the matter has come to this, I won't be polite. Wu Sidao's game is to kill the god. My game is called Zhanlong, cutting off the dragon veins of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty."

Shen Lian asked curiously: "Forty-two chapters?"

Liu Bowen waved his hand: "Have you heard the legend of the Manchu treasure? Unfortunately, decades later, the treasure was excavated by Kangxi, and now only the cave remains. The layout of the Manchu treasure in recent years was mostly spent on this treasure."

"Can the treasure cost so many years?"

"Of course not. This is business. You should know Dashengkui, right? Dashengkui's capital comes from the Manchu and Qing royal families. Now that Wala has been destroyed, the communication between the two parties has been completely cut off, and the Manchu and Qing Dynasties have suffered extremely heavy losses."

"This has nothing to do with me!"

Although Shen Lian has done many things, he has never targeted certain merchants, including Manchu merchants.

This is not what Shen Lian should do.

Not only is he not in his position and not pursuing his political goals, but it is also not in line with Shen Lian's nature. Whoever can make more money will rely on his or her own ability rather than playing dirty tricks.

Small money plays dirty tricks, but big money relies on integrity.

Shen Lian asked: "Banxian'er, tell me about your dragon-slaying game. How do you want to kill the dragon's veins?"

Liu Bowen smiled and said: "It's not convenient to say now. Next year you will know that if you are lucky, you can get countless benefits and greatly improve your own cultivation."

"I've always had good luck."

"Your lucky star shines brightly, and every bad thing turns into good luck."

Logically speaking, the blessing star shining high and the bad luck turning good cannot be used together. If used together, it means that the bad star shining high will turn bad luck into good luck.

But this is in line with Shen Lian's fate.

The White Tiger Star Lord is both a god of death and a protector.

It can not only bring about monstrous killings, but also subjugate demons and eliminate disasters. For some people, it is a bad star, and for some people, it is a lucky star. What kind of environment.

Liu Bowen had a good understanding of destiny. He had a pair of eyes that could observe the mountains and rivers, luck and fortune, the vitality of heaven and earth, the sun, moon and stars. He could see the three talents of heaven and earth.

Very little escapes his eyes.

At the same time, Liu Bowen's wisdom will be seriously damaged if his eyes are blinded.

Furthermore, Liu Bowen could use this to show his weakness to the enemy and invite him to enter the urn, completely destroying the enemy.

"Half Fairy, can you help me?"

"What's up?"

"When I conquered the Japanese pirates, I promised the two officers accompanying me to find a suitable master for their sister. I think you are the most suitable one."

"Oh? What kind of girl doll?"

Liu Bowen's face flashed with interest.

He knew that Shen Lian never spoke empty words. Shen Lian knew his abilities, but he recommended this girl to him as his apprentice. She was obviously a talented person.

"She is from the same family as you. Her father recently moved to Baoding Mansion to work as a commanding officer. His name is Liu Guang. Her name is Liu Huiniang. Her qualifications are extremely high."

"Other than the fact that our two families are both surnamed Liu, I'm afraid we don't have any relatives. There are people named Liu everywhere in the world. I'm afraid they are out of fifty."

Liu Bowen said that he has no such relatives.

In fact, they are really not relatives.

Liu Bowen has very few direct relatives, and not many collateral relatives. The total number of relatives who have not been to the fifth server is less than sixty. Can the relatives who have been to the fifth server still be regarded as relatives? No different from classmates and neighbors.

Liu Bowen and Liu Huiniang may have been related to each other for thirty generations. Of course, if Liu Huiniang was recognized by Liu Bowen, she would be his direct disciple.

A direct disciple is no different than a biological daughter.

For a person like Liu Bowen, it is very, very difficult to find an apprentice who can learn all his skills.

The best way is to accept many apprentices, each of whom learns a skill. Now Shen Lian recommends disciples. If the two of them are compatible, there is no need to go to such trouble. (End of chapter)
