Chapter 14 The Mysterious Four Images (3)
Today's Tea Horse has been greatly built since it was returned to Luosang.
The Ma family originally wanted to inform Luo Sang in advance, but was stopped by Jing Gan.
"Brother, you don't know who Luo Sang is, do you? You might as well tell him directly what we are going to do!"
Jinggan could predict every detail. Although Ma Jun felt a little blocked in his heart, he pretended to be calm and said: "I also know that after all, Luo Sang is the big boss now. If we don't say anything like this, I'm afraid it will also cause trouble." Suspect!"
Jingqian heard that something was wrong, and immediately realized what Ma Jun was thinking. He took out a letter written in advance from his waist and handed it to Ma Jun...
"What's this?"
"Oh, this is a letter I wrote last night. If the elder brother feels uneasy, just give this letter to Luo Sang. He will definitely let it go!"
"Are you so sure?"
"Open the letter and read it!"
Ma Jun opened the letter with hesitation, and saw that there were only four big words written on the letter: Tea Horse has changed!" He broke into a cold sweat and asked.
"Isn't this asking for death?", and quickly put the letter into his arms.
"Hahaha, Martha, you sometimes get nervous too!"
"If it were me, I could see at a glance that this is simply bullying. If Luo Sang saw it, he wouldn't eat my two brothers alive!"
Seeing that Ma Jun was still panicked, Jingqian took the letter and threw it into the water before saying, "My good brother, take a closer look!"
Ma Jun was afraid that the letter would float away in the water, so he picked it up immediately. He saw a few words faintly appearing in the letter, and he could see the content clearly with the help of light: Tashi's life and death, unknown!
"If Luo Sang only looks at those four words, isn't it still the end?"
Jinggan said helplessly: "Think about it, with Luo Sang's shrewdness, he would not react at all when seeing such a big event?"
"So, your four obvious words are to attract Luo Sang's attention, and the hidden words are to find out the whereabouts of Tashi, but in fact they are to tell him his determination to be loyal to the tribe? In this way, Luo Sang can be distracted from us. It just conceals the purpose of this trip, right?"
"Hahaha, it's rare for Martha to be able to figure it out!"
"Then how did Luosang know that there was a letter in your letter?"
Jingqian took the letter and explained proudly: "The tea horse has changed! The power of these four words is enough to shock Luo Sang's heart. When Luo Sang reacts, he will know the true meaning of the letter!"
"Then who will deliver the letter to Rosang?"
“Just leave it in the room and someone will deliver it!”
…
I didn’t really count how many days I haven’t been to Tea Horse, but when I saw this city again, I seemed to have an indescribable feeling. I was still the same person, but I felt a lot stranger in my heart. Among the three brothers who depended on each other for their lives, Jingqian becomes increasingly estranged, although they are still brothers in private...
The big stone at the door is still the same, but no one has lived in the house for many years, so the door panel looks much older.
Ma Jun and Ma Jingqian walked to the door together without saying a word, and all the past scenes emerged. Although Dongqing was young, she could also see the gap between the two brothers.
"Big brother, second brother! Let's clean up the house and don't go back, okay?" After saying that, he walked to the door alone and opened the door...
A door seemed to let out the laughter of the past. The weeds in the yard were half-covered. Holly stepped over the steps in front of the door and turned to look at her two brothers. They both seemed like logs. She wanted to speak, But I swallowed the words in my stomach...
The painting on the door panel has been washed away by time and is blurry, but the plum trees in the yard are like weeds in the yard. In fact, both of them have thought about the past, and both of them also want to enter this courtyard and never listen to the outside again. Right or wrong... Seeing everything familiar and sad, Jingqian felt sad and filled with emotions: For what? Power? Or alive? There was no more Ma Jingqian in that wing with crumbling tiles and dangerous walls!
Isn't it true that Ma Jun is like this? Only Dongqing still has the same original intention. Maybe it's just that he is young and doesn't understand the hardships and sufferings in the world...
The breeze blew by, and a dried plum suddenly fell to their feet. The two were interrupted from their memories and looked at each other awkwardly...
"Then...Jinggan...how to get this stone open!"
Both of them were very happy. The purpose of this trip was to get the four mysterious phenomena!
Sometimes, two people who originally talked about everything suddenly become polite, which is the most fatal start...
"Oh, I asked Dongqing to look for anything else in the house!" Jingqian felt heartbroken at this moment, but there was no other way. The constant avoidance began to become the best communication between the two brothers.
After a while, Jinggan came over carrying a rusty hoe.
"The wall is about to fall. Get out of the way and push it down!"
The moment the hoe fell and the wall collapsed, the three of them lost all concern for their home.
After peeling away the broken bricks and tiles, the stone cracked along the gap, and a bundle slipped out. Ma Jun was surprised and happy. He rushed forward to pick it up, peeling off the linen tightly wrapped on the outside, and there was a bundle inside. It is wrapped with a piece of sheepskin. When the sheepskin is opened, the books in the bag are revealed, the "four mysterious phenomena"!
"Jinggan, look!" Ma Jun's hands trembled slightly as he turned over the pages of the book, his joy indescribable.
"The content of this exercise is very simple and short. Just stay here for the next two days and slowly understand it!" Jing Gan responded coldly, making Ma Jun's original joy gradually fade away! Then he wandered in his heart: Since It’s a martial art passed down from family, why did he tell me so reluctantly!”
"Jingqian, stop!" Ma Jun caught up and continued to ask: "This is a family tradition. You, I, and Dongqing can all practice it. Why do you look so ugly?"
Jingqian just sneered helplessly and couldn't say a word...
Ma Jun saw something wrong and knew that Jinggan must have something to hide if he didn't say anything.
…
At night, with the help of candlelight, Ma Jun opened the Four Symbols of Xuanqi. He opened the pages and saw a thin piece of sheepskin sandwiched inside the book. There were some small words written on the sheepskin...
"Ma's Sophora japonica, obtained the Book of Heaven..."
Due to age, the handwriting has become blurred. Ma Jun took the lampstand and took a closer look. He saw what was written below:
The secrets of the exercises were obtained from God. My younger brother Kui, whose Qi and blood did not give birth to his firstborn son, went crazy and became a demon, and his veins burst. I tell future generations that the exercises will be passed down directly to the firstborn son.
"So that's it. No wonder Jingqian looks so unwilling."
Continuing to read down, I saw that the description in the book had been simplified, but it was this simplification that made it difficult for Ma Jun to understand the detailed description of instilling Qi.
"If you are in harmony with its spirit, you will be in harmony with its will...", over and over again, they are all simplified moves written...
Looking further down, this is very detailed. There is a human-shaped acupuncture point map drawn on the page, and there are detailed explanations all around...
