chapter 9 dusty clues

After picking out these two books from a pile of old books, Breyton Wu did not read them immediately. He was hesitant whether to read them or not.

If these two books were helpful to him and his senior brother, the master would have taught them long ago when he was still alive. The reason why the master did not teach them during his lifetime meant that learning the contents of these two books would be harmful rather than helpful to them. At least the master was Think so.

But these two books should still be valuable. If they were all the remnants of feudal superstition, Master would definitely burn them before his death. But Master did not do that, but hid them on the ceiling. This shows that Master I am also conflicted. I feel that I should not teach them, but I am reluctant to burn it. I can only hide it in a hidden place. Whether I can find it depends on God's will and their luck.

After much hesitation, Breyton Wu casually picked up the book of Kanyu's Thirty-Six Methods.

I was about to open it, but hesitated again. Now is the age of science, and these mysterious things are often associated with people and liars, but don’t become nagging after reading it.

After hesitating, I finally opened the book. Whether this thing is the wisdom of the ancients or the remnants of superstition can only be judged after seeing it. A great man once said that without investigation, there is no right to speak. Investigate first and use scientific methods. Look at it objectively with a critical attitude.

The first page is a message, which is what the author or the transcriber said to future generations. The message is written vertically, using traditional Chinese characters. The difference between traditional Chinese characters and simplified Chinese characters is not very big, so there is no difficulty in reading. What is written is Come empty-handed and go alone, good and evil will eventually be rewarded, and whatever you borrow will be repaid.

"This is fair, but a bit pessimistic."Breyton Wu said to himself.

A classmate who was awake in the same dormitory casually answered, "Zhongyuan, what are you looking at?"

"The development history of ancient times."Breyton Wu said casually.

"We are going to go to the battlefield soon. Are you sure you will do well in the exam?" The "battlefield" mentioned by the students refers to the upcoming college entrance examination.

"I'm sure it will be burnt."Breyton Wu turned to the second page.

Seeing that he was absent-minded, his classmates ignored him, adjusted their glasses, and continued reading.

The second page is the table of contents, which is divided into three chapters. The length of the title surprised Breyton Wu. The first chapter is about supporting the family, the middle chapter is about risking wealth and honor, and the second chapter is about life and death with kindness.

This is the first time Breyton Wu has seen a name of this length. It stands to reason that mysterious things tend to have lofty names, but the names of these lengths are very common, not pleasant, and not transcendent.

The book is not thick, with only a few dozen pages. It talks about the content and methods related to Kanyu. The so-called Kanyu does not only refer to Feng Shui, but also includes stargazing, timing, site selection, house design and many other contents. I didn't have time to read it in detail, so I glanced at it roughly and looked at it in a hazy way. I only knew that every page contained a lot of the same type of unfamiliar content.

To break it down, the main text of the book totals thirty-six pages, with twenty-seven pages in the first part, six in the middle part, and three in the second part.

After roughly reading the whole book, Breyton Wu finally understood why the author or the copyist came up with such a long name. Many of these methods related to Kanyu are achieved at the expense of one's own lifespan. Most of the methods recorded in the previous chapter are Some contents that are used daily, such as naming a child, looking at the feng shui of the house, have little impact on oneself, helping others, making a little money, and supporting the family.

The content recorded in the middle chapter is more dangerous. Once you do something, it is very likely to hurt yourself. But just because of the danger, the effect is good. If you do a big favor to a noble person, you will naturally get more money, so it is called risking to seek wealth. .

The next part only has three pages. It records the essence of Kanyu, including mysterious methods to prolong life and change Qi. Correspondingly, the price paid is also very high. If not, you may have to involve yourself in it. That’s why it’s called En. The reason for living and dying is because doing this kind of thing is no longer for money, but often to repay the great kindness of others.

After reading the Thirty-Six Methods of Kanyu, Breyton Wu did not remember the specific methods of Kanyu. What impressed me most was that fortune-telling cannot be done randomly, because fortune-telling is classified as divination, and divination is the middle part of the Thirty-six Methods of Kanyu, which is very serious. It's a very solemn matter. If you calculate it wrong, it doesn't matter. If you calculate it correctly, you will reveal the secret and lose at least 19 years of your life. It is written in the book.

The life expectancy of a person is calculated in terms of nine, nineteen, two, nine, three-nine, all the way to ninety-nine, the least is ninety-nine days, the most is ninety-nine years, ninety-nine eighty-one, and the most serious one is death all at once. .

It can be seen from this that the fortune tellers who set up stalls on the street are all liars. Those who are really capable will trade their nine-day lifespan for ten or twenty yuan, even if they are one hundred and eighty yuan, they can't do anything.

After reading the whole book, I have to make a summary and give the book a personality. However, after thinking about it for a long time, it is difficult to judge whether this book is the wisdom of the ancients or the remnants of superstition. The reason is very simple. It is impossible to determine the authenticity of the contents recorded in the book unless Try it yourself.

It was already midnight, and he was the only one awake in the whole dormitory. After sleeping for a while earlier, Breyton Wu was not sleepy, so he took the ghost painting talisman again.

The contents recorded in this book are even more outrageous. They are all methods of catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits. Drawing talismans is only one of the more common methods. There are also some weird methods. The reason why it is called ghost drawing is because of some of the spells and spells recorded in it. Most of the methods come from folk accumulation, and are somewhat different from the way orthodox Taoist priests draw talismans. Therefore, ghost-drawing talismans are used to show modesty, lest orthodox Taoist priests encounter them and get slapped if they don't like them.

In addition, the person who copied this book and the person who copied the Thirty-Six Methods of Kanyu should not be the same person, because the handwriting is different. Compared with Kanyu's Thirty-Six Methods, this book is less reliable. Kanyu's Thirty-Six Methods can be tried by oneself, but this cannot even be tried. Where can I find ghosts these days?

By the time he finished reading the ghost painting talismans, it was already past midnight. Breyton Wu tied up the books again and put them under the bed. The college entrance examination was about to take place and he didn't have time to read them. He would dig them out and study them carefully after the holiday.

Get up early the next day, everything is as usual, the college entrance examination is around the corner, and there are endless mock tests.

Breyton Wu is still confident about the college entrance examination, but only if he can pass the admission score. He is good in other subjects, but not so good in mathematics. People say that interest is the best teacher. He has no interest in mathematics at all, but It just so happens that mathematics is a compulsory test for all liberal arts and science subjects.

Although he is poor, he has no subsidies from the school, nor any assistance from charities. This is not because the school does not have corresponding policies, nor is it because no one is willing to support him, but because Codie Lin does not allow him to accept help from others . Codie Lin always says that the most difficult thing to repay is a debt of gratitude. If you can handle things yourself, it is best not to ask others.

On the night before the college entrance examination, Codie Lin called and told Breyton Wu that he no longer wanted to work in the mines in the neighboring county and wanted to go back to work in huang county. Codie Lin did not say what he would do specifically. He only said that he would come to school to find him after he finished the exam.

There has been no movement from the hospital in the past few days, which makes Breyton Wu relieved. He is most afraid that his affairs will be leaked and he will be arrested by the relevant departments for observation and research.

The college entrance examination is coming, and each candidate is facing a formidable enemy. Breyton Wu is not very nervous. He cannot apply for the military academy or the police academy. He has no interest in other schools. Moreover, college costs more than high school. He has to pay tens of thousands a year. It takes four years to study for an undergraduate degree, so it is better to study for a three-year junior college, which can slightly reduce the pressure on senior students.

After the exam, the students were nervous and excited one by one. They gathered together to discuss in advance which university and major to apply for, and looked forward to dreaming about a beautiful university life. Breyton Wu was very passive about this. The reason was very simple. Everyone knew that it would be difficult to get into university if they were admitted. Everything was fine. Most of the so-called college students went to fall in love, and falling in love cost money. He didn't have that spare money, and he had a genetic abnormality. Wouldn't it be harmful to find a girlfriend?

However, although he has no intention of falling in love, there are female classmates who like him. It is not because he is handsome. To be honest, he is not a very handsome boy. His academic performance is only passable, but there are still female classmates who like him. , as for the reason, he couldn't figure it out, maybe it was because there were few boys in the liberal arts class.

School is about to leave, and the youthful excitement of boys and girls has reached its peak. The emotion of parting has turned into emotional blindness. The ordinary graduation and leaving school have been imagined by boys and girls who have just begun to fall in love into a tragic farewell of life and death. A small hotel outside the school. , under the big trees in the school, in the dormitories, and in the classrooms, there are blind instinctive impulses and superficial and cheap oaths everywhere.

Breyton Wu received it within one day

Two love letters arrived, as well as a new mobile phone. The love letters were full of romance and touching. However, after Breyton Wu read them, he discovered that the two girls did not like him. He was not as described in each other's love letters. It's just a carrier of the other person's emotional fantasies.

The person who gave the mobile phone was from the same town as him, and he was also very beautiful. The mobile phone was packed in a big envelope. In addition to the mobile phone, there was also a note. The note only said one sentence, "I don't want to lose contact with you."

This confession was affectionate and direct enough, but Breyton Wu still returned the phone to him. The reason was very simple. This was not the first time that this female classmate had given a boy a mobile phone, and he had also seen this female classmate having sex with different men since the school gate. car.

Not every beautiful face has a beautiful soul behind it, and not every beautiful word has a beautiful truth behind it.

Codie Lin arrived in a Mercedes-Benz car. He was dressed so well that Breyton Wu almost didn't recognize him.

Codie Lin came and went in a hurry, said a few words briefly, left a mobile phone and two thousand yuan and left.

Naturally, the Mercedes-Benz car did not belong to Codie Lin. The reason why Codie Lin could sit in it was because he was Festus Zhao's bodyguard. This Festus Zhao was a celebrity, engaged in real estate, the richest man in huang county, well-known throughout the country, and owned several companies under him. The resort company is one of his subsidiaries.

It is not difficult to guess why Festus Zhao hired Codie Lin as his bodyguard. The gangsters Hua Shirt brought had their legs broken, and medical expenses were inevitable. This matter must be reported to Festus Zhao.

It's not hard to guess why Codie Lin is willing to be Festus Zhao's bodyguard. For money, he will soon go to college. The money Codie Lin earns in the mines is not enough to pay for his tuition and living expenses.

Watching the car disappear, Breyton Wu returned to the dormitory worriedly. When his master was still alive, he had always warned the two not to show their martial arts skills in front of others. Codie Lin's doing this violated his master's warning, and the reason why Codie Lin did this was all for him.

After the college entrance examination, his classmates left school one after another. Soon the dormitory was empty and he had nowhere to go. The school knew about his situation and temporarily let him live in his original dormitory.

Before, the old house was still there and he could go back during holidays. Now the old house is gone and he is truly homeless.

On the first day of vacation, he took the initiative to find Shaney Huang and told Shaney Huang about Codie Lin's situation. Shaney Huang was surprised. Needless to say, Codie Lin had not told her that he had come to the county town before.

Seeing that Shaney Huang was in a low mood, Breyton Wu wanted to say something, but he hesitated and said nothing. What could he say to stop her from making futile efforts? Or let her persevere bravely?

The vacation was long, and Breyton Wu didn't want to waste it. He wanted to find a short-term job to make some money, but temporary jobs were not easy to find, and he couldn't find a suitable one after looking around for a day.

When he returned to the dormitory in the evening, he had nothing to do, so he took out the bundle of old books from under the bed and browsed through them at will. He was not interested in the scriptures, and it was not appropriate to read more of the two books, which were unclear whether they were the wisdom of the ancients or the remnants of superstition. Finally, he chose I have read the book of medical practice experience left by my master. There are many real cases in it, as well as many effective folk remedies. Take a look at it, you may use it in the future.

After reading two pages, Breyton Wu discovered a detail. This medical practice was written by his master in his later years. Although there was no specific time or patient's name in it, it did have the patient's age, gender, and specific symptoms.

He almost vomited blood and died when he was a child, but his master cured him and adopted him. If nothing else, this medical experience will be recorded in this book. As long as you find this record, you can know some of your situation at that time.

In addition, the strange corpse in the coffin was buried by the master himself. This person was probably still alive when he met the master and had communication with the master. Otherwise, the master would not be willing to give up his coffin to him. If he is lucky, If so, maybe there will be records about him in the medical practice experience.

Thinking of this, Breyton Wu began to read more quickly, and when he turned to the fourth page, he discovered something. There were two pages before and after, an adult man and an eight-month-old baby. The symptoms were shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting blood.
