Chapter 19 Metaphysics Society
This ungrateful guy, where is the fighting spirit he had just now?
I despised her fiercely in my heart. Then I looked at Mao Xueying's smiling eyes staring at me. I couldn't help but shudder.
Women are tigers! Today I finally realized it.
Sitting in Mao Xueying's Ferrari, she and Mao Xueying returned to the villa. Ningxiang was very obedient and did not show up.
After settling Mao Xueying down, we stayed silent all night. The next day, I contacted my cousin and went straight to the Metaphysics Society.
Dongmen Metaphysics Research Association. Located in the northern suburbs of Dongmen City. Only a kilometer away is a branch of Yandang Mountain. The three-story building covers an area of two or three acres, close to the mountains and water, with a sloping terrain. The front view is wide, and behind the house is shaded by green trees, with birds singing and flowers blooming.
Looking at the nine characters written in a flamboyant style on the door, the strokes were powerful, the trajectory was natural, and there was a faint glow of light spraying out.
"What a great place, what a great word!" I couldn't help but exclaim. It seems that there are still some powerful people in the Metaphysics Society.
"Brother, you are here!"
Zheng Qihuai threw his arms and rushed out of the door in big strides, followed by Duan Qirui. However, Duan Qirui's expression at this time was excited, but also a little helpless and aggrieved.
As soon as they met, Zheng Qihuai opened his arms for a hug.
I quickly clasped my fists and saluted to block Zheng Qihuai's attack: "Master Zheng, Master Duan,"
Hehehe! Zheng Qihuai's old face turned red, and he turned around awkwardly: "Brother, I have told the president Wu Zhidao about your matter. I heard that you were coming here today, so I'm waiting on the third floor now."
"Then I'll trouble you, Master Wu." I replied politely.
As soon as he entered the hall, my cousin was knocked down.
"Sir, please wait in the lobby." The doorman avoided Wu Zhidao and me and politely extended his hand to stop my cousin.
"I'm Master Ni's cousin." The cousin revealed his identity with some doubt.
"Yes, sir, but only core members can enter the third floor." The doorman did not deny it. Instead, he pointed at the sofa in the hall and tidied it up very seriously.
"Ahem." Wu Zhidao coughed twice, and then he tried to explain to me: "In our field of metaphysics, many things cannot be known to outsiders. So, haha, Master Ni, just talk to your cousin."
"It's okay, no need to say anything, Ni Ge, I'll be waiting for you here." After hearing Zheng Qihuai's words, my cousin cooperated and walked to the sofa and sat down.
Unexpectedly, Duan Qirui also followed his cousin and sat on the sofa.
"Don't mind me, brother. Xiao Duan is still at the stage of being a charlatan. Although he is a member, he can only enter the second level. He is not qualified for the third level."
Zheng Qihuai seemed to see my confusion, and explained with a proud smile.
"Master Ni, you go upstairs. I'll stay here to accompany your cousin." Duan Qirui just smiled helplessly when he was called a charlatan.
"Okay, see you later." I smiled and bowed to Duan Qirui.
"Okay, okay, don't waste time, let's go, brothers." Zheng Qihuai pulled me into the elevator in an anxious manner.
The third floor is a hall with several rooms in the northeast corner. As soon as I came out of the elevator, I saw a Bagua mirror hanging in front of the door.
"This Bagua mirror pattern is clearly a dead object, but it seems to be moving slowly. Its position is also constantly changing. Could it be a demon-suppressing mirror?"
As soon as I walked out the door, I was shocked and couldn't help but blurt out.
"Hahaha." Zheng Qihuai smiled proudly and said, "Brother, you have good eyesight. Although this can be said to be a demon-suppressing mirror, it is a replica. Even so, this mirror can be regarded as a top-grade magic weapon. Alas, it is nothing compared to your Qiankun Dragon-seeking Mirror.
"Master Zheng, you're joking. This magical instrument has really opened my eyes." I sighed from the bottom of my heart.
This demon-suppressing mirror has a well-known story.
During the period when King Wu attacked King Zhou, King Zhou sent out the Four Monsters of Meishan, Zhu Zizhen, Yang Xian, Dai Li, and Jin Dasheng, to resist the Zhou army.
These four monsters were also very capable. If they directly entered King Zhou's military camp and only served as a small general, the four monsters thought that they were underestimated. So the four monsters made a plan.
The eldest brother Zhu Zizhen slapped his thigh and said, "If we go directly and fail to show our abilities, I'm afraid Yuan Hong won't use us."
"What does big brother mean?" The remaining three people, who were originally very excited, all thought that wealth and glory were within their reach. As soon as they heard what big brother Zhu Zizhen said, they immediately felt that this was the truth.
"If we go directly, Yuan Hong probably won't pay much attention to us, but the four of us brothers have the ability to overturn the world. We might as well charge directly to Zhou's camp and take the rebel's head. Then we go to find Yuan Hong. Then Yuan Hong will definitely look at us differently, and then the glory and wealth will be at our fingertips."
After these four monsters made a plan, they sneaked into Zhou's camp that night without anyone noticing.
These four monsters were indeed quite capable, and they chopped off Yang Jian's head without any effort. They brought it to Yuan Hong overnight.
But who is this Yang Jian! He has already become an immortal. He was sleeping soundly when the four monsters took his head away, and he was completely unaware. At this time, he heard the commotion around him, and suddenly opened his eyes with some displeasure, but found himself in Zhou's camp. Looking again, only his head was left.
He was immediately furious. Between his eyebrows, his third eye was burning with anger, and he immediately turned Yuan Hong's banquet upside down, with wine and food scattered all over the floor, and everyone was covered in dust.
However, what Yang Jian feared was that these four monsters were really capable, and his third eye could not see through their true form. Under the combined attack of the four monsters, Yang Jian could only flee in embarrassment.
At this time, Nezha returned with the magic mirror. Yang Jian was overjoyed. He took the magic mirror from Nezha. It was still late at night, and under the illumination of the night, the magic mirror emitted bursts of colorful light, and countless heavenly soldiers and generals appeared in the mirror.
These heavenly soldiers and generals appeared in the mirror and rushed directly towards Yuan Hong's army.
The four monsters were not willing to give in, and immediately displayed their magical powers. Suddenly, the sky was dark and the earth was gloomy. A dark cloud covered the moonlight completely. The heavenly soldiers and generals disappeared without a trace.
"The evildoer has yet to reveal his true form." Just when the Xiqi army was helpless, Yang Jian's third eye suddenly opened. The Demon-Suppressing Mirror also emitted a beam of light that shot straight into the sky.
The magic mirror showed its power, the dark clouds dissipated, and the moonlight reappeared. The four monsters showed their true forms and crawled on the ground, unable to move.
Under the magic mirror, Jin Dasheng turned into a bull spirit, Yang Xian turned into a sheep spirit, Zhu Zizhen turned into a pig, and Dai Li turned into a centipede.
Later, this magic mirror came into the hands of Jiang Ziya, who hung it high in the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons to suppress all demons forever.
There are many allusions like this, and this one in Fengshen is unintentionally the most classic one.
"Haha, what do you think? I have some here that are not bad, right? Although magic tools like these are all cheap ones, we still have quite a few in our Metaphysics Society."
Zheng Qihuai stroked his beard, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out exaggeratedly, looking smug and proud.
"Amazing. This Demon-Suppressing Mirror is full of spiritual power. When it moves in different directions, yin and yang complement each other. And the material is the most suitable walnut wood. I admire that such a magical tool is just hung on the door." I smiled and nodded.
"My friend really has good eyesight."
Zheng Qihuai and I were chatting when we saw a sixty-year-old man with a sage-like appearance, white hair and a youthful face in the distance. He was wearing a doctor's Zhongshan suit and was looking at me with a smile.
"Brother Ni Ge, this is our president Wu Zhidao." Zheng Qihuai hurriedly introduced him with a respectful attitude, completely different from the image of a playboy who had just played games.
"President Wu." I greeted .
"Haha, Brother Ni, you're welcome. Come inside and sit down. I just made a cup of Biyuchun." Wu Zhidao greeted with a smile.
Zheng Qihuai's eyes suddenly shone with gold. He pulled me in anxiously, "Brother, let's go! It's rare for this old man Wu to take out his treasured possessions!"
"What are you talking about, second brother? This is all the food I have. Go slowly!" Wu Zhidao was unhappy at first, but then he simply rushed over and hugged a can of tea that had just been opened tightly.
Zheng Qihuai looked at the tea can eagerly and snorted coldly: "Stingy."
He picked up the teapot and poured himself a large cup.
"Hmph! Vulgar! Come on, brother Ni, hurry over here or the tea will be ruined by this old man."
Wu Zhidao picked up the teapot, quickly poured two cups of tea, placed them on the table and greeted them.
I looked at these two funny guys in silence.
Before I even picked up the tea, I smelled an intoxicating fragrance. I gently put it in my mouth, and immediately my mouth and tongue were enveloped by a faint fragrance. I felt extremely comfortable all over. I even felt that my spiritual power had increased a little.
"What kind of tea is this!" I asked puzzledly while holding the tea.
"Gudong, gudong! This, hehe, I know! This is the spiritual tea planted by President Wu. It's a pity that there are too few plants, only two pots."
Zheng Qihuai gulped down the entire cup and filled it up again before saying this with regret.
Wu Zhidao's face turned red. "Oh, excuse me, my friend. I'm an old man, and I'm only at the peak of the fourth rank. I don't think there's any hope for me to become a master. So I use my spiritual power to maintain two pots of tea trees every year, and I get this much tea. Hey, hey, hey! Slow down! Hey, leave some for me."
As he spoke, Wu Zhidao simply snatched the teapot.
"Oh! You stingy guy." Wu Zhidao shouted depressedly while holding the empty cup.
"My friend, let's ignore that vulgar man." Wu Zhidao did not have the slightest intention of yielding and held the teapot without any intention of letting go.
Haha, "President Wu has a good method, but I don't know how this magical tea is grown?" I asked curiously.
Hehe, Wu Zhidao showed a fox-like smile and took out a form. "Young man, fill out the form first and file it. Then we will be family. I will tell you everything you want to know."
I took the form and took a look at it. It only required basic information, and there were no other requirements. So I filled in my personal information without hesitation. As for the photos, Wu Zhidao took out a camera from the drawer, the kind that can be taken at any time.
At this point, I suddenly felt like I had signed a contract to sell myself. After all, Mao Xueying's agreement left me with a bit of a shadow. After a closer look, I found nothing wrong, so I handed the form to Wu Zhidao.
