    Seeing that the New Year is approaching.  In the next few days, as people spread the word, Liu Wenyang and Liu Xiaoshenxiang changed the feng shui of their new house by observing the yin and yang, and even burned the big locust tree and subdued the five-flowered python, which spread like wildfire in Taohua Town.  Walk.  Those onlookers who had experienced this incident painted the whole story vividly and vividly.  At the beginning, the story was still able to maintain the authenticity of the original incident and had a certain degree of authenticity.  He talked about how Liu Wenyang changed the feng shui of his new house, and then he saw that there was something wrong with the big locust tree, which was a place where evil spirits gathered, so he ordered to find firewood and burn the big locust tree.  Unexpectedly, a large five-flowered python as big as a bowl was burned out of the hole of the big locust tree. The python didn't dare to bite anyone. It just fought with the little willow god for a while, and then it was frightened by the crowd of onlookers.  After going back, he was captured alive by the big guys and became a prisoner.  This version is the original original version, which basically tells the entire incident.  But as a folk story, it lacks mythology and legend, and it lacks characters and heroes.  So, the people of Taohua Town, who had nothing to do during the day and could only sleep with their wives at night, began to tell this story according to their own opinions.  The same story, you pass it on to me and I pass it on to you, from one to a hundred, it will inevitably be reprocessed by the great working people with added embellishments.  The five-flowered boa constrictor's waist and length were lengthened, from one foot to three feet long, from the diameter of a bowl to the thickness of a bucket, and its attack ability also changed from "shrinking in fear" to "extremely vicious"  ".  Then Xiaoliu Shenxiang's force value soared from "zero to ten" to "one hundred and one".  So, an upgraded version of the story appeared like this - It is said that Xiaoliu Shenxiang changed the feng shui of his new house. He never thought that when he burned the big locust tree, a python spirit as thick as a bucket was burned out. The python spirit was extremely vicious and chased people.  He just bites and swallows the people he catches. He ate ten living people in one breath without even filling his stomach.  Just when it was about to continue to devour living people, Xiaoliu Shenxiang no longer cared about showing mercy and no longer hid the secret that he was a master. He held a mahogany sword and started fighting with this python spirit.  But when Xiaoliu Shenxiang shouted: "Monster, where are you going!" He used the "immortal guide" move and stabbed the python spirit with his sword. The python spirit swung its tail and swayed to avoid this sharp weapon.  A sword.  Then Xiaoliu Shenxiang continued to show off his power, using moves such as "Sword Pointing to the South", "Pingsha Falling Wild Goose", etc. The sword never left the python spirit's seven inches, and the knife never left the python spirit's head.  In the end, the python spirit couldn't resist Xiaoliu Shenxiang's superb swordsmanship, so he had to hide back in the tree hole and wait for an opportunity to pounce.  However, the extremely wise Xiaoliu Shenxiang didn't give it a chance to counterattack at all. He gathered his energy and directly used the "Jade and Stone Burn" move. He slashed the big locust tree with one sword and frightened the python spirit hiding in the tree hole and ran away.  Come out and kneel down to beg for mercy The wonderful thing about this version is that the creator extremely cleverly combined the story of Xiaoliu Shenxiang's surrender of the python with the swordsman novels in teahouses in the early Ming Dynasty.  Surrender the giant python."  There is no doubt that this version is lively, has a strong story, and the martial arts scenes are unique, attracting many people to follow and spread the praise, so that this legend can be heard in many teahouses, restaurants, streets and alleys.  But this is not the final version yet.  The final version is like this - It is said that Xiaoliu God looked at Feng Shui Zhenyang House, holding a peach wood sword, stepping on the Seven Star Steps, using the nine-nine-nine-eighty-one-turn golden light array to exorcise demons and slay demons, and absorbed the essence of the sun and moon from that tree  From the old locust tree that became a spirit, a python demon with horns on its head was forced out. This snake demon has a head as big as a bucket and a body of a hundred feet. It looks like it will ascend to the dragon after thousands of years of practice, but it does not want to be destroyed by Xiaoliu's divine appearance.  Good thing.  So, the snake demon flew into the air, and Xiaoliu Shenxiang rode on its back to start a big fight.  I saw the snake demon driving black clouds, spitting out black mist, and wanted to kill the enemy.  But Xiaoliu Shenxiang is not a person who takes it easy, but he took out something from his arms, threw it at the snake demon, and said: "Zhaofa Bao!" Then he saw a flash of golden light, and the snake demon had been taken away.  Before the soul could see clearly what treasure it was, it had already been taken into the arms of Xiaoliu Shenxiang From then on, this giant python, which was about to turn into a dragon, became the general in charge of the Liu family. He fulfilled his duties and frightened Xiaoxiao.  The rats dare not go to Liu's house to steal.  This version is called "Xiao Liu Shen Xiang Subdues the Divine Dragon". Its highlight is that it directly upgrades the five-flowered python from a simple snake spirit to a divine dragon that has been practiced for thousands of years; and Liu Daguan lives up to expectations from a single martial arts  The master has become a Taoist immortal with boundless magic power. His force value is directly converted into mana value, and his magic weapon protects him and is invulnerable to all poisons. ?¡­ ?  In short, this matter has been spread with added fuel and jealousy, and it has become more and more evil. It is directly linked to superstitious thoughts, and all kinds of gods and ghosts have appeared.  If these rumors were passed down to future generations, it is estimated that no one would pay attention to them or take them seriously. However, this is the Ming Dynasty, and the ideological consciousness of the people is not high yet. There is usually nothing to entertain, so they just rely on words to spread some evil things.  Come to kill time.  Therefore, these bizarre versions spread directly from Taohua Town to the surrounding areas, such as Surabaya Town, Wanlong Town, and the adjacent seven townships and eight villages. They were all talking about it, and even the county seat in the distance was talking about it.  Various versions of the story gradually emerged.  It can be said that, by mistake, Xiaoliu Shenxiang transformed from a simple fortune teller and bullshit expert into a master who saves the people of Taohua Town from fire and water.  And the poor python, which was timid and fearful and eventually sold into slavery, has also been mythologically transformed into a divine dragon. Now it is even more alive, and it is full of energy to help people pray for blessings and perform mass.  ¡­ ¡­ Now, with Liu Wenyang¡¯s fame and prominence, the new house he moved into has a completely new look.  The red lacquer door was renovated, and there was a large plaque on it that read "Liu Shen Prime Minister's Mansion".  The two broken stone lions were also replaced with a pair of brand new majestic jade unicorns. According to the words of his father Liu Da, the jade unicorns are better than the stone lions, which means that the unicorns send children and spread their branches.  leaf.  It seems that after the old man solved the problem of food and clothing, he began to think about having a grandson.  As for the original big locust tree, which had long been burned down, out of respect for the silly python and for his shameless personal promotion, Liu Xiaoshen thoughtfully erected a stone tablet on the spot, similar to the one on the left.  "Taishan Shigandang" corresponds.  As for this new stone tablet, there are five big characters written on iron paintings and silver hooks, "The Divine Appearance of the Subduing Dragon and Willow", which makes a pair: Taishan Stone Gandang, the Divine Appearance of the Subduing Dragon and Willow.  And behind the stone tablet, Liu Shenxiang even paid someone to engrave his great achievements of "burning a locust tree and bringing down a giant python", with pictures and texts. Liu Daguan was riding on the python, invincible and high-spirited, without any trace of it.  There is a suspicion that he peed his crotch.  After moving home, with a huge house, the first thing that came to the door was not the neighbors of the new office, but the matchmaker who could talk about it.  This matchmaker's surname is Wang, and she is called Mama Wang. She is known for her eloquent talking skills, and can turn the dead into living things, and the living into flowers. She is known far and wide. It is said that no matchmaker can be as good as her, and nothing can be done without her.  right.  Matchmaker Wang had already inquired about the new "rich family" whose surname was Liu. His son was young and handsome, and he had good fortune-telling and fortune-telling skills. So he came to the door and found his father Liu Da and said that he wanted to tell Liu Wenyang.  A marriage.  At first, Liu Da was very happy, thinking that this was a great joy. If his son married a wife, he would be able to let go of his worries. In the future, he would be waiting to burn incense and hold his grandson.  But the women Matchmaker Wang was talking about were either the daughters of goddesses, girls from coffin shops, girls from pork shops, or maids from beef soup shops. In the words of Matchmaker Wang, "This is called a 'match'!"  "I'm sorry for you!" Dad Liu Da immediately drove the matchmaker out. In his opinion, although his son was a great scholar, he was also a scholar, a scholar, and a sensible person. How could he be with those who were not?  Get married into a popular family.  Matchmaker Wang didn¡¯t expect that she would be a matchmaker with good intentions, but she would be chased away before her butt was even warm, and this old man didn¡¯t know how to praise her.  So when he was kicked out of Liu's house, he pointed at the old man's nose and said: "With your family like this, why do you expect your son to marry a wealthy lady? I think you should let him be a bachelor for the rest of his life!" Liu Da picked up the copy directly.  Broom, that Matchmaker Wang ran away, running faster than a rabbit It can be said that "The Matchmaker said marriage" is the first episode after the Liu family moved, and it can also be regarded as a household chore of the Liu family.  Now that these household chores have been taken care of, it¡¯s time to put fortune telling on the agenda.  Originally, my father was still thinking about whether to accept the invitation from the Chenghuang Temple and set up a fortune-telling stall in the Chenghuang Noodles, so as to replace the iron mouth and become the big-name magic stick there.  But in Liu Wenyang¡¯s view, why should we sacrifice the near for the far?  It is better to open a "viewing room" directly at home and open the door to do business. In this way, manpower, material resources and foot power are saved.  Father Liu Da still has some doubts, fearing that the place is too remote and no one will come.  Liu Wenyang didn't care. As a superior time traveler, he knew the effect of advertising, so he spent a lot of money, hired fifty painters with high salaries, and painted more than 3,000 self-portraits of himself in one go.  I didn¡¯t tire out those painters¡ª¡ªOf course, in order to maintain his handsome and extraordinary personal image, he was inspecting the goods.At this time, get rid of all those things that slightly vilify yourself, get rid of them all!  As for those who deliberately beautify themselves reward them!  Reward them all!  After the reward, a stern warning will be given: You must draw like this again in the future!  With paintings, there must also be words, that is, advertising slogans. In order to distinguish it from other low-grade unscrupulous magicians, Xiaoliu Shenxiang¡¯s advertising slogans are as follows: Liu Shenxiang provides guidance, fortune-telling and fortune-telling.  Croak!  In the painting, the "beautiful" Mr. Liu is smiling and giving a thumbs up ¡ª¡ª Of course, such an outstanding advertisement must be combined with those unscrupulous wanted notices for arresting criminal thieves and adulterous thieves.  The difference is that they cannot be posted randomly like those things, but they must be selectively found in densely populated areas and posted in a very special way.  But then, three or four men with loud voices took the paintings and put them up, while singing in unison: "There is a name between heaven and earth, and those people are the common people. Who is the most clever in fortune telling, eh eh eh eh yo, you can't  There is no need to ask about what is dark, what is bright, what is good, what is bad, he can judge it with his fingers, yin and yang" It can be said that Liu Xiaoshenxiang's self-promotion is in this song.  The song shows it vividly, and its shameless behavior is enough to make many senior idols feel ashamed! ? ################ ??????????
