Weird Sequence: Immortality Begins from Chinese Martial Arts

At the beginning of the new year, the energy of the sky is at its peak with the taiyin, and the energy of the earth is with the sun. The four seasons of heaven and earth reopen, the energy of the tai qing and the yang is vigorous, and the pure energy cleanses the world.

As the first ray of sunshine in early spring dawns from the east, the light shines brightly in a moment. There is no darkness or concealment in the sky and the earth, and everything is dawning.

Jiang You was sitting cross-legged on the bed, his face already turning purple. As two streams of white air spurted out from his nostrils, the purple air gradually subsided until it disappeared completely.

Jiang You opened his eyes. The total amount of purple energy today was extremely majestic, and he had also refined a large amount of purple energy. Jiang You looked inside his Niwan acupoint, and the spiritual spring water had risen to about half of the volume in the Niwan acupoint.

Just one day is worth seven days of river travel, but it's a pity that it only happens once a year.

Jiang You got up and walked out of the bedroom. Jiang You returned to live with his parents last night. Jiang Xuewen and Sun Lanfang hadn't gotten up yet. He went downstairs alone and went to a nearby park to stretch his hands and feet.

From practicing Hong Quan to Baji Quan, Qi and blood are constantly vibrating in the body. If one gets closer to Jiang You, one can even hear the sound of blood flowing in the body.

When old men and women started to appear in the park, Jiang You stopped and went back because he didn't want to attract attention.

When they returned, their parents had already gotten up. Sun Lanfang made breakfast for the three of them, and the family of three went to Jiang Tianci to pay New Year greetings.

When they arrived, they found Jiang Ye already sitting in the yard playing chess with Jiang Tianci.

Jiang You and Jiang Xuewen were watching and talking with each other, followed by lunch. There were only a few relatives in the Jiang family. In the early years, some moved to other provinces, and some went abroad for a long time. Time stopped moving back and forth.

I thought I could have a free day today, but I didn't expect a visitor to come to my door soon.

The visitor is Tie Zhu’s wife, Ma Lanlan. Ma Lanlan is also an old man in the village. After the establishment of Yama, she found a small leader in the logistics department. The job was already easy. In addition, Tie Zhu went to Ancheng and stayed at home alone. Being bored and not short of money, I often invite a group of middle-aged women from the logistics department to play mahjong at home.

When playing cards, I would often curse Tie Zhu. When I got the upper hand, I would mess around outside and quarrel. I couldn't live this life.

However, she just said that she had never thought of divorce. After all, in the mind of a rural woman, divorce was a very shameful thing. This time Tie Zhu made trouble, and she ran around for Tie Zhu. , asked someone to plead for mercy. As soon as Malanlan walked in, Jiang You guessed her purpose.

Inviting Ma Lanlan into the living room, she was able to hold her breath, chewing melon seeds on her lips and chatting with the others, and at the end, she howled and started to cry.

As soon as Jiang You saw this posture, he knew that he was going to talk about something serious, so he had to cooperate with Malanlan's performance and ask her what was going on. Malanlan took this opportunity to tell the story about Tiezhu.

Because Malanlan came from the village and was familiar with Jiang Tianci, she wailed directly at Jiang Tianci: "Uncle Jiang, you are very knowledgeable. Tell me, how can anyone not make mistakes? Tiezhu followed the five I’m willing to sacrifice my life, but Fifth Master can’t really take Tiezhu’s life!”

"Lan Lan, you also know that I don't care about Lao Wu's affairs!"

"Uncle Jiang, you can't ignore Tiezhu this time. If you don't, then who else can I go to? If Tiezhu dies, I won't live either. Why don't I crash and die here now!"

After saying that, Malanlan stood up and put her head on the wall, trying to hit it.

Jiang Ye stopped her at the side, "Sister-in-law, the impact of Brother Tiezhu's incident is indeed too bad. If no one died, everything would be easy to talk about and discuss. But after all, several brothers died. As the Lord of Yama, the Fifth Master must of course give his brothers an explanation. , otherwise people’s hearts will be scattered, and you understand it too!”

Malanlan broke away from Jiang Ye and sat on the ground crying, "How do I understand? Tie Zhu is going to die now. Xiaoye, it turns out that you and Tie Zhu were so close and both were wearing the same pair of pants. Tie Zhu is going to die." No, you don’t care?”

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I mentioned it to the fifth master in a vague way last night. The fifth master didn't respond, so I can't insist on saying it. I'll take this opportunity to tell my fifth master that I can at least bring Brother Tiezhu to His life is saved!”

Jiang Tianci was also troubled by the behavior of a rural woman like Ma Lanlan, who was dissolute and wallowing. Although this method was not dignified, it was indeed extremely effective. After all, there was a reason why it had been spread for so long.

"Lan Lan, don't worry too much. I understand, Lao Wu. If Tie Zhu can kneel at his door, that means he still wants Tie Zhu's life. If he really doesn't miss his old relationship, Tie Zhu may not even be able to see his face. superior."

"Yes, the fifth master is the most loyal!" Ma Lanlan stood up with tears in her eyes and grabbed Jiang You's hand, "Jiang'er, your uncle Tiezhu is also very good to you. Auntie, please, you and you Second Uncle, go together to intercede with Fifth Master, and this will definitely work!"

"Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely intercede for the fifth master. Don't worry, drink some tea and be relieved!"

After getting the assurance from Jiang You and Jiang Ye's uncle and nephew, Malanlan breathed a sigh of relief. She sat down and took a sip of tea to moisten her mouth. She stopped talking and just kept looking at her uncle and nephew. If you don't go, , I won’t leave today.

The uncle and nephew looked at each other, Jiang You smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, okay, aunt, I will go with my second uncle to find the fifth master to intercede!"

Only then did Ma Lanlan have a smile on her face. She immediately said a few soft words and then added a few more words, saying that she was so frightened by Tiezhu's incident that she could only ask her closest relatives for help. She came to the door today during the Chinese New Year. I forgot to bring a gift, so I cried and howled so damn much. Then I said Happy New Year to a few people and said auspicious words. When Tie Zhu is fine, I must thank them properly. I will never forget my kindness. Tie Zhu hasn’t done it this morning. For dinner, you should go there together and bring something to eat for Tie Zhu.

Rural women are just uneducated, but if anyone thinks they are stupid, then he must be a fool himself. You can see how powerful they are just by looking at Ma Lanlan's words and deeds after entering the house. They are relaxed and unambiguous at all. .

The three of them came to the headquarters together. When they arrived at Wu Ye's small courtyard, they saw Tie Zhu already kneeling there. Under the tree next to him, there was a blanket with a thermos, fruits, various foods, and a quilt. , it seems that Malanlan spent New Year's Eve here with the iron pillar last night.

Originally, the two of them still had some resentment towards Malanlan, but seeing this, all the resentment in their hearts dissipated.

This is not a shrew, she is just a rural woman who loves her husband in her own way. There are countless people who share the joys and sorrows, but there are only a few who share the hardships. Tiezhu can have someone who loves him and can share the joys and sorrows with him. The woman is so lucky!

Malanlan arrived, tiptoed to the iron pillar, pointed inside, and whispered: "Is the Fifth Master back?"

Tie Zhu shook his head bitterly and said in a hoarse voice: "I don't know!"

"It's okay this time, look who's coming!"

Tie Zhu knelt for several days, and there would often be people walking behind him. As time went by, he no longer paid attention to the footsteps. After listening to Ma Lanlan's words, he turned around and saw that it was his uncle and nephew from the Jiang family.

"Tie Zhu, you went too far this time!"

Jiang Ye walked up to him and started scolding him. After scolding him, he still wasn't relieved and punched him twice in the chest.

"Hey, Xiaoye, Tiezhu has been kneeling for several days, please hit him gently!"

"Shut up and stop meddling in this man's business!"

"oh!"

"Lao Jiang, punch me a few more times. I'll feel uncomfortable. I'll feel better after being beaten!"

Jiang Ye slapped Tie Zhu on the shoulder. "Iron pillar, iron pillar!"

Jiang You said: "Uncle Tiezhu, if we can get over this time, we must change those problems in the future!"

"Jiang'er, I..." Tie Zhu's emotions suddenly burst out, and he choked up in the middle of his sentence and couldn't continue.

Jiang You sighed and walked to the Fifth Master's door with Jiang Ye, "By the way, Uncle Tiezhu, be nicer to Auntie from now on, and clean up the messy things outside!"

Before Jiang You could knock on the door, the door had already been opened. Lu Xiaoxiao was standing inside wearing a bright red coat. She glanced back first, and then smiled at the two of them, " When the lobbyists come?”

"Xiaoxiao, Master Wu is here, right?"

"It's inside, come in!"

When the three of them walked into the room, they saw the Fifth Master, who had rarely changed from his usual black color, wearing a blue robe, with a crystal clear jade pendant hanging around his waist, sitting on his Taishi chair, holding his own design in one hand, and a Drinking tea from a white tureen in hand.

"Fifth Master."

"Drink tea!"

The fifth master did not raise his head, but waved the hand holding the bowl, indicating that the two of them should sit down first.

After sitting down, Lu Xiaoxiao served the tureens to the two of them and went out. The two of them drank tea in silence without saying a word.

When the tea was almost finished, Master Wu put away the design drawings of Yan Luo's expansion and said to the two of them: "You are all managers now, and you are in a different place. How will you deal with this matter?"

Jiang Ye looked troubled. "This" he was the elder who had monopolized power in Hunan Province, and he often killed those who made serious mistakes below. Naturally, he knew what the fifth master meant. It was the same as what he told Ma Lanlan before. If no one died , then everything is easy to talk about, but if the person dies, he has to give a satisfactory explanation to the following.

It’s not that forceful pressure can’t be suppressed, but it hasn’t been long since Yama was established. It’s just like this. Some people behind it will imitate it and become more confident. I’m afraid there will be more and more of this kind of thing. At that time, Yama’s own foothold will be It's all a problem.

Seeing his second uncle's silence, Jiang You said, "How satisfied is the explanation? Can I keep my life?"

The Fifth Master sighed, "Tie Zhu, Tie Zhu, his virtue is not worthy of him. I was the one who harmed him. I shouldn't have let him out then!"

The Fifth Master did not answer directly, but this was also an answer.

Jiang Ye said anxiously: "Fifth Master, is there no other way? You can even fake your death. Then let him stay anonymous and go to Hunan Province with me!"

"Xiaoye, follow me and go through the Book of Changes. Can you tell me, what does Dazai Qianyuan mean?"

"What's wrong with Qianyuan?" Jiang Ye was stunned, thinking why the fifth master had also become the Riddler. Everything was wrong.

This sentence is the first hexagram in the "Book of Changes", the Qian hexagram. The original text is, Great Qian Yuan, the beginning of all things, and the unification of heaven. The clouds are moving and the rain is flowing, and the goods are flowing. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, six people came into being, riding on six dragons to control the sky. When the main roads change, each person's life will be rectified and the harmony will be maintained, which is beneficial to chastity. The first common people came out of Xianning in all countries.

The meaning is very simple, that is, the vigorous Qianyuan Qi is the power resource for the creation and transformation of all things. This powerful and endless power resource is integrated throughout the entire process of the movement of heaven.

Combined with the context of the Fifth Master, it is not difficult to know what he wants to express, that is, whether it is a person or an organization, it is necessary to follow the right path in order to develop for a long time. If you engage in too many conspiracies and tricks, sooner or later you will be counterattacked.

With the Fifth Master's methods, he would naturally be able to cheat his death seamlessly and cover up the truth. However, this only took into account the interests of Tiezhu and did not take into account those who died in the Yama. If the Fifth Master's pattern is so big, the most that Yama can do is A second-rate organization does not need to be a first-rate organization. Besides, it is Tiezhu who made the mistake now, and the level is still within the controllable range. If the fifth master, as the Lord of Yama, ignores everyone's interests and favors his relatives, this matter will be brought to an end. It became Master Wu's fault, and this kind of mistake was enough to shake his prestige.

Confucianism also has a similar saying: a gentleman holds his body upright. If his body is upright, he will not do what he is told. If his body is not upright, he will not follow orders. Confucius said: "If you can straighten your body, what's the point of being in politics? If you can't straighten your body, how can you straighten your people?"

It is impossible for a large organization to rely on conspiracy. At this level, all tactics are used. You must have your own principles and bottom line. There are many things that cannot be done and cannot be done. This is why many leaders often lament that everything cannot be done by themselves.

For example, when a large army fights, the scale of the war reaches the level of hundreds of thousands. No one will use hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to carry out surprise attacks. Tricks such as building plank roads in the open and secretly attacking Chencang are all carried out with the front of the majestic army.

Of course, this does not completely deny the existence value of conspiracy. The Art of War says that with the right combination, you can win by surprise.

The prerequisite for winning by surprise is to have the right fit.

The Fifth Master himself can also scheme, externally against other organizations, and internally against the three elders, but these are all games, and there is no such despicable means as threatening others' relatives.

Even if the opponent loses this time, he will feel inferior to himself. Even if he regains his position next time, there will be no enmity.

The explanation that Master Wu mentioned was not just for the people below. Why didn't he himself need an explanation? Otherwise, if there is a lack of Taoism at this time, the embankment of a thousand miles will be destroyed in the ant nest, and all efforts will be in vain!

Jiang Ye was telling Dazai Qianyuan's original words, and he understood what Fifth Master meant, and sighed, "How can I expect Ma Lanlan to explain this!"

"There is no end to the road. I will leave a sliver of hope for Tiezhu. Whether he can survive it depends on his own destiny!"

After the fifth master finished speaking, he loudly said to the door: "Kneeling at my door is of no use, go to the mourning hall and kneel there!"

The two people outside the door were stunned when they heard the fifth master's words, "Mourning hall? When was the mourning hall set up?"

Lu Xiaoxiao came out and said coldly to Tiezhu: "You have been kneeling for the past few days. I have sent people to Ancheng to bring back the bones of the brothers who died in the battle. Now a mourning hall has been set up. Come with me!" "
