I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Could it be that the little shopkeeper has already taken some natural treasures?

The few of them didn't speak at this time, but looked at Zhang Nuo with inexplicable expressions, guessing how this young colleague who had suddenly risen had obtained such a cultivation level.

For these monks who are truly successful in cultivation, gold, silver, treasures, and beauties like jade are all foreign objects that they don't care about. Only seeking longevity is the right way of Taoism!

Chapter 198

Zhang Nuo half-closed his eyes and looked at the old Taoists in Taoist robes in front of him and remained silent.

Pretending to be aggressive, who the hell can’t do that, they’re all here at my door, and they don’t even fart, who really can’t pretend to be aggressive!

Zhang Nuo doesn't think it's respectful not to speak. Anyway, in his opinion, it's all in front of him. He obviously met yesterday, and he pretends to be a stranger without farting. This is a typical pretense!

Therefore, Zhang Nuo, who made up his mind, simply closed his eyes, and the exercises recorded in the Liangyi Acacia Book went into full swing, and his whole body suddenly became ethereal like a celestial being exiled from the dust.

Yuan Tiangang is so stupid, how can he close his eyes and start practicing without saying a word?

Could it be that you saw me and other people in the Taoist sect suddenly enlightened?Or is there any other reason?

Lao Yuan was always very cautious when facing things that he was not sure about. He honestly waited for about half an hour, his legs were almost numb, and he couldn't help it before he said,

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Lay Zhang, I am so polite here!"

When Zhang Nuo heard that the damned old Taoist finally spoke, he was also relieved. Grandma, although practicing is not only not tiring, but also quite comfortable, but standing at the gate and blocking the entire gate to practice is still It's so weird.

Fortunately, Yuan Tiangang spoke up, otherwise he would not know how to persevere.

"Old Yuan, since you are here, you are a guest, come in and have a cup of tea, let's chat!"

No matter how much Zhang Nuo slandered in his heart, he still pretended to be calm, turned his head and led the people inside.

It has to be said that the modern villa that Zhang Nuo made for himself is, in this day and age, like a fairyland on earth.

Yuan Tiangang and the two Taoist priests around him couldn't see the demeanor of the worldly masters before, and their serious faces couldn't hide the deep shock in their eyes.

Zhang Nuo sat down on his usual seat, and said with a slight smile on his face,

"Old Yuan, tell me about your reason for coming. For the sake of your success in cultivation, I will tell you what I can say!"

The three of Yuan Tiangang sat on a sofa they had never seen before, and suddenly felt that they were sunk in, but after sinking to a certain extent, a force supported them firmly.

Yuan Tiangang was admiring the magic of the various objects in this house, when he heard Zhang Nuo's question, he hurriedly said seriously,

"Infinity Heavenly Venerable, the old Daoist ran into Layman Zhang yesterday, but he never thought that Layman Zhang would call him a big deal that the old Daoist and the disciple had just discussed. I was very surprised, so I came to the layman to ask the layman for clarification!"

Zhang Nuo nodded, it turned out to be like this, he was fooled by himself, but he had to figure out how to continue fooling around.

He originally didn't intend to get involved with these religious people, because religion is usually accompanied by all kinds of troubles.But in any case, Taoism is the mainstream religion currently supported by Datang.

And compared to Buddhism, Taoist priests are far more intimate than those non-productive, jeweled, fat-headed monks.

Most importantly, he suddenly thought that Taoist priests at this time could almost be regarded as the most primitive and elementary chemists.

Based on those Taoist priests who like alchemy in the Taoist sect, as long as they are trained a little, they are at least at the level of a laboratory assistant.

Thinking of this, Zhang Nuo's eyes on Yuan Tiangang changed a little. This old Taoist is not only very famous in later generations, but just looking at his age and cultivation level, he would not be low in the Taoist sect behind him. If you are in place, you should be able to get the manpower you need!

Thinking of this, Zhang Nuo squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then waved his hand, and a piece of paper with a faint yellow color suddenly appeared in front of Yuan Tiangang.

"This is the first image of your push back image!"

Before Yuan Tiangang could react, Zhang Nuo waved his hands again and again, and papers of the same specification appeared one after another.

"This is the second elephant, the third elephant..."

At this moment, Yuan Tiangang no longer had the energy to pay attention to Zhang Nuo's magical means of creating something out of nothing. All his energy was attracted by the sheets of paper with rich pictures and texts in front of him.

He was sure immediately that this was the result of his derivation, and he even firmly believed that if he and his apprentice really jointly deduced the Tuibei diagram, then it must be the result on paper.

One is because of his deep intuition. He has always believed in this intuition, thinking that it is a sign of a warning sign or an open mind, which is more convincing to him than the conclusion drawn from serious thinking.

The other is because although the format of the prophecy on the paper is the common format of Taoism, some language habits are unique to him, which cannot be changed at all. Even after just reading two pieces of paper, he knew that it should be I can only get it next year.

Because he has already seen the unique secret language that he has hidden in it. He has not even told his apprentice Li Chunfeng about this secret language. Only he knows it in the whole world, but now it has appeared in front of him in a daze.

Zhang Nuo looked at Yuan Tiangang in front of him calmly,

"Old Yuan, what do you think when you see these things?"

Yuan Tiangang closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, stabilized his mind, and then said slowly,

"Lady Zhang has amazing skills and profound cultivation, and the old Taoist admires it! The old Taoist feels more and more that this is the right time. If the old Taoist has a question, I hope the layman can explain it!"

Zhang Nuo nodded and signaled Yuan Tiangang to speak directly!

Yuan Tiangang took a deep breath again, looked at the mysterious Lay Zhang in front of him with all his attention, and said solemnly almost every word,

"Is it possible to become a fairy in this world?"

Zhang Nuo looked at Yuan Tiangang, and found that the old man was almost focused on him. After thinking for a while, he said with certainty,

"can!"

Zhang Nuo's words were very soft, as if they were daily answers, but they fell into Yuan Tiangang's ears like thunder from nine heavens!

It's really possible, there is still a way to become a fairy in this world, so how can I seek my own fairy fate?The fairy road is long, have you ever set foot on the fairy road?Who will be your leader?

Looking at the excited Taoist priests in front of him, Zhang Nuo slowly leaned on the back of the sofa and said with a smile,

"Old Yuan, do you still remember what I said when I met you yesterday? You are an old man who is really not afraid of death. You are addicted to leaking secrets. After doing it, you don't dare to say it, and you get more and more troublesome." The bigger it gets, don't you really know?"

"The way of heaven is ruthless, so it allows the world to fight and fight. The way of heaven is merciful, so it always leaves a chance in the world. Old Taoist, what do you think of the way of heaven?"

Yuan Tiangang was struck by lightning when he heard the words!

Chapter 199 Zhang Nuo's Discussion

Zhang Nuo's words were like a hammer, hitting Yuan Tiangang's heart fiercely!

Lao Yuan's inheritance is actually quite mysterious. The patriarch of his school found some ancient books from nowhere. By chance, coupled with his amazing talent, he actually deduced a cultivation method.

For Yuan Tiangang's faction, it is just a common means to calculate the secrets to seek good luck and avoid evil. The most fundamental thing is to steal a trace of secrets to make up for oneself, which is the ultimate goal.

This kind of method is already regarded as the method of the gods in the eyes of the world. Lao Yuan also cultivated a ray of real energy with this set of exercises, allowing him to walk like flying at nearly a hundred years old, and he is well-known among Taoists.

But the Patriarch has long said that this method is purely opportunistic, and the way of heaven is ruthless, how can it be easily calculated by mortals?Anything that goes wrong will end in death.

But people are not beasts, how can they not have the seven emotions and six desires?

People make money and birds die for food. Yuan Tiangang was also very concerned about the taboos enjoined by his ancestors from generation to generation. He only dared to spy on short-term secrets, and never dared to calculate such major events as the fate of the country and the family.

But people are always like this, greed is not enough to swallow like a snake, as long as you can see it accurately, there will be a trace of heavenly secret accompanied by aura to make up for yourself, Yuan Tiangang gradually lost in the pleasure of full aura.

So, from going around the streets to tell fortunes to people, to pointing out the wealthy families to seek good luck and avoid bad luck, and finally slowly start pointing out the vitality of the rich, step by step, they are getting more and more courageous.

Finally, two days ago, Yuan Tiangang, who felt that his life was short, planned to give up his life to deduce the fate of the entire Li Tang and the later Han family together with his apprentice Li Chunfeng.

This is no longer a matter of one or two big families, let alone a generation. It is the luck of the entire Han family for thousands of years.

Once it is really deduced by their master and apprentice, the aura obtained from this peek at the secret of heaven is enough for their master and apprentice to transform into a world and build a foundation at once.

The risks involved are naturally clear to the master and the apprentice, but life is a definite number of birth, old age, sickness and death. The so-called cultivation is going against the trend. How can they shrink back because of some risks?

But now this most secret event has been known before it even started, and even the result has been placed in front of him, what kind of fairy trick is this?

Yuan Tiangang finally couldn't bear it any longer, stood up and said respectfully, Jishou,

"I am poor and ignorant, I hope Lay Zhang will teach me!"

Zhang Nuo accepted the gift without any embarrassment, and then said with a smile,

"Old Yuan, if there is a lack of spiritual energy in the world today, even if you practice the Taoist orthodox kungfu like me, you can only rely on merit to become a fairy. Where did you have the courage to go against the sky? Don't you know that merit is not enough? God will punish you?"

Yuan Tiangang was sweating now, and the two Taoist priests who had been following Yuan Tiangang couldn't pretend to be dumb now, so they stood up quickly and said,

"Lady Zhang, Li Chunfeng is the one who is poor. His family teacher is definitely not a traitor. Although he failed to cultivate the golden body of success, he is also willing to do good deeds and help the poor for decades. How can there be any loss of merit?"

Zhang Nuo glanced at the middle-aged Taoist who claimed to be Li Chunfeng, and said angrily,

"You only know how to do good to accumulate virtue, but do you know that doing good is good deeds, and accumulating virtue is accumulating virtue? How many people have you helped at most? As for accumulating virtue? How many secrets have you two revealed over the years? Merit can withstand the two of you doing this?"

"I reckon, you are also deeply blessed and blessed by the patriarch. Otherwise, you don't know if you can survive until today. Maybe one day a divine thunder will come down and you will be wiped out!"

Yuan Tiangang trembled when he heard this, as if the divine thunder had already sounded above his head!

After a while, Yuan Tiangang said tremblingly,

"Layman, save me!"

Yep, I was almost scared, at this time Yuan Tiangang didn't have the demeanor of a half-worldly expert, he was no different from an ordinary bad old man, not to mention the decadence on his face, the whole person's energy dropped .

Zhang Nuo nodded and said seriously,

"You and I met by chance, so I will give you a chance. I have a method that can absorb spiritual energy to nourish myself. It is a basic skill, and I will pass it on to you later!"

"In addition, I myself want to promote the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties. If any of you have attainments in alchemy, you can come to me and share some merits!"

As soon as the words fell, the people on the opposite side were so excited that they couldn't help themselves. My God, is there just such a skill and merit?

But looking at Zhang Nuo's expression, it seems that he really gave it so simply, and he didn't seem to mention anything in return. Is there such a good thing in this world?

Yuan Tiangang was the oldest after all, so he said directly,

"Fellow Daoist, I don't know what I need to pay for such a generous gift from you? Fellow Daoist, please tell me clearly!"

Zhang Nuo curled his lips in disdain, your uncle, you kept calling me a layman without giving you any benefits, even though I am more powerful than you, and I still look like a very powerful outsider, now that I have benefits, I will immediately become a fellow Taoist Yes, what a real motherfucker.

But Zhang Nuo didn't bother to say anything more to them. Anyway, they all take what they need. Zhang Nuo gave the most basic cultivation method, or a simplified version after deletion and some basic chemical knowledge, in exchange for human support from the Taoist sect. .

In the eyes of others, Zhang Nuo may feel that Zhang Nuo has lost a lot, but in Zhang Nuo's view, he just taught a few more people the cultivation techniques that he had given to Lao Li and the others.

In the end, he still had to rely on these Taoist priests to prepare a large amount of gunpowder and at the same time train the craftsmen in the gunpowder workshop. Only in this way would he not worry about gunpowder when he conquered Goryeo in the future.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo waved his hand calmly,

"Forget it, you don't have to think about how to repay me. In the future, those who practice alchemy will repay me if they are obedient and obedient here, and they don't expect to get anything from you!"

Yuan Tiangang was so overwhelmed by Zhang Nuo's words that he didn't know what to say. The other party's look of disgust was so obvious that it couldn't be more obvious.

But what else could Yuan Tiangang say?They are all old and mature people, and they know the skin is the best thing. Sometimes it is really useless. At this time, if the opportunity is missed because of a little thing, it will be regrettable.

What's more, judging from what the Daoist sect learned in just one night, this Layman Nuo has higher skills, better magic spells than them, and even richer wealth than them!

Perhaps, this person who is like an exiled immortal doesn't care about the little things in the world. I haven't heard the other party say that everything is for merit.

Chapter 200 Royal Title Auction

Zhang Nuo dismissed Yuan Tiangang and others with almost a few words!

Even Hongyu, who was eavesdropping upstairs, felt that her husband was too disrespectful to these masters.

But how did she know that Zhang Nuo has never had a good impression of religious people, regardless of Taoism, Buddhism and Christianity.

In his opinion, it is better to ask for others than to ask for oneself, and it is better to bury your head in work than to look forward to the gods and Buddhas in the sky.

If it weren't for the fact that the best chemistry talents of this era are all in Taoism, Zhang Nuo wouldn't even bother to deal with them.

But just when Zhang Nuo sent Yuan Tiangang away and returned home to continue living at home, a major event ushered in Chang'an City.

The long-prepared auction of the Royal Firm will finally be held today.

This matter has been planned for half a year, from Zhang Nuo's idea at the beginning, to Li Shimin's discussion with the officials, to the decision in the court, and then it has to be passed on to the Quartet to give those big merchants time to prepare. It's the end of the year.

And now, it's finally done!

Li Shimin hurried back to the palace today, in fact, it was for this matter!

The matter of the stirrups and horseshoes has been settled, and the rest is nothing more than the Ministry of Industry arranges craftsmen to make secrets. It is not a big deal, but the auction of the royal name is the first time in history, which not only means a lot of money. Making money is an attempt by the court.

In this world, the ranking of scholars, farmers, businessmen has always been the order, and merchants can only be ranked at the bottom. But now that the business tax has been settled, the status of merchants is slowly improving with the increase in tax payments.

This auction is even more so now. If it can really generate a large amount of income and the subsequent commercial tax can be guaranteed, then this is likely to lead to a series of adjustments in the imperial court's commercial policies.

Of course, Li Shimin would not preside over this kind of auction. One is that the levels are not equal. No matter how wealthy a merchant is, he is not qualified to let the emperor preside over the auction.

The other reason is that no matter how you try to whitewash it, you still use the royal name to sell it for money. If Li Shimin came forward to host it, wouldn't it be a slap in the face in front of you, that would be ugly.

However, not being able to host in person does not mean that one cannot hide in the back hall and listen.

And not only Li Shimin arrived, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Wuji all hid behind and listened to Dai Zhou's announcement of relevant matters in front.

Although this auction is the first time in history, who can become a big merchant, which one is not shrewd, capable and intelligent?
