Chapter 128 Heavenly Secret Test

In Beicheng, Sifang House slowly opened its door in the morning light.

An old man gathered up his slightly white but neatly washed double-breasted coat and went out to the east.

A cargo man walked up to me with a clanging sound, and said hello with a smile: "Good morning, old master."

"morning."

The old man nodded slightly and walked sideways.

The alley is not big, and people come and go, mostly neighbors, saying good-bye to each other.

This is probably the most common sight of all living beings in the early morning in the capital city of Dali.

The old man walked to the entrance of the alley and saw a woman rolling up her sleeves to do laundry. He stopped and advised her, "Mother Xi'er, don't roll up your sleeves too high."

The woman looked up at the old man and continued scrubbing.

The old man hesitated for a moment and then tried to persuade her: "Xi'er, my mother-in-law, my sleeves are too high."

"Look at the feet!"

The woman put away her clothes in the basin, picked up the basin and poured out the water with all her strength.

The soapy water splashed at the old man's feet, causing the latter to run away in shock.

"A dog takes a mouse, bah."

The woman came in with a basin in her arms and spit before closing the door.

The old man shook the water from his clothes and feet, and said angrily: "It's an insult to politeness, it's an insult to politeness."

After taking a few breaths, the old man walked out of the alley and onto the street.

In the early morning, the streets are even more lively, with people buying and selling.

The old man walked and looked around, and if he saw someone whose clothes were not neatly dressed, he would give him advice.

This person is none other than Li Huaian, a master of Cheng studies in Dali. He was dissatisfied with the darkness of the court and served as an official for many years, so he was known as the "Old Master."

Cheng Xue started in the Song Dynasty and took "preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires" as its academic core. It initially had the Three Cardinal Guidelines and the Five Constant Virtues, and later developed the Four Dimensions, Eight Virtues and Ten Meanings.

The so-called five constant principles are benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, and trust.

Of these rites, clothing rites are the first.

The arms are not visible when lifting the hands, the feet are not visible when lifting the legs, the clothes cover the body, and the hair is tied into a crown, this is the beginning of etiquette.

Along the way east, the old master persuaded no less than ten people.

The collar is unbuttoned, which is an insult to elegance.

Rolling up your sleeves and showing your arms is an insult to gentleness.

Improper crowns and scarves are an insult to elegance.

Lifting one's legs to see what is enough is an insult to politeness.

As soon as he recognized the old master, he quickly pulled off his clothes and covered himself. Waiting for the old master to go away, he picked up the papers that needed to be picked up.

Fireworks are all living beings, too much is not enough.

Although they didn't recognize him as an old man with a gentle manner, most of them didn't dare to get angry casually, so they did as he was told and watched him leave with a confused look on his face.

Going all the way east, the old master left the city and arrived at the dock.

Suddenly, in the middle of the cross street, I saw a young man wearing a thick linen jacket and short pants, but his lower body was half-length trousers. His thighs were bare and exposed, and the hair on his legs stood up in the cold wind.

The man lowered his head, put his fist on his face, and made a particularly strange posture with the man.

The old master suddenly felt the thunder, his face changed drastically, and he screamed: "In broad daylight, the sky is bright, it is shameful to shame people, it is shameful to shame people!"

As he spoke, he walked forward quickly, secretly thinking that this person was so contemptuous of human etiquette that he would be punished by being whipped and exiled, and would not be spared.

At this moment, the young man turned around and grinned, "Old sir, what's the matter?"

When the old master saw the young man clearly, the anger on his face gradually turned into inexplicable anger. He stared at Qin He hesitantly and shook his head for a while, "Hey...it's nothing."

"Do you think I'm a little strange?" Qin He asked. He had just finished setting up when someone came.

"Of course it's strange. It's freezing. You should wear more clothes to avoid getting frostbite. Even if you're young, you don't dare to do this." The old master shook his head and left, looking back many times in the process, with doubts in his eyes.

In the middle of the street, Qin He was left wearing shorts and posing in the middle of the busy street, with his long leg hair swaying in the wind.

People come and go, and people passing by will look at Qin He twice, but they only look at Qin He twice and will not stop.

Everything is so ordinary.

Everything is so unnoticed.

Occasionally someone will murmur, "Aren't you afraid of freezing if you wear so little clothes?" The focus is so skewed.

But that's all.

No woman blushed when she saw him.

At this time, several more carriages carrying goods came from behind. Seeing Qin He standing at the intersection, the two leaders shouted loudly: "Get out of the way."

Qin He then silently made a note in his mind: The so-called unremarkable means that people's focus has been distorted, from being eye-catching to "fairly normal", thus becoming inconspicuous and normalized.

Standing in the middle of the road is just as abnormal as standing in the freezing cold and not wearing any clothes, but it's not very abnormal either.

However, there are exceptions, such as children.

When several children saw Qin He naked, they immediately ran over and pointed at Qin He and laughed.

Upon seeing this, Qin He took out a handful of melon seeds and asked, "Is there something wrong with me?"

"Of course there's something wrong with you, shameface, shameface~" a child said loudly.

"If you don't wear pants, you will be spanked." Another child also said.

Qin He then silently made another note: The secret concealment technique seems to be ineffective on children.

After a while, no one came forward, so Qin He simply took a stroll.

He wanted to thoroughly test what this secret concealment technique was like.

Sliding away, two people walked towards each other. The first one had a long face, like a donkey's face. He was stunned when he saw Qin He, then pointed at Qin He and scolded: "You Qin He, in broad daylight, the world is bright, you...

…You sweep the floor politely!”

Qin He looked up and said, "I'll go."

Wei Wu?

My heart skipped a beat, as this secret concealment technique seemed to still be working, so I asked knowingly: "What's wrong with me?"

"What’s wrong with you?"

Wei Wu's face turned red and he said angrily: "Why don't you wear pants in broad daylight? You have lost all the dignity of the corpse-burning party! Believe it or not, I will seize you in the Feiyu Guard Prison and torture you?"

Qin He was speechless, and immediately made another thought in his mind: the secret of heaven's secret concealment technique, it is suspected that some fish may have slipped through the net.

"Hurry up and put on your pants, it's so cold."

At this time, Wei Yuanji, the follower behind Wei Wu, also said something.

Wei Wu was angry and turned to look at Wei Yuanji and said, "What are you talking about? Is this a question of coldness?"

Wei Yuanji's eyes were full of confusion and he hesitated: "What else?"

"Otherwise?" Wei Wu opened his eyes wide and said, "This is a matter of shamelessness!"

Wei Yuanji looked at Qin He, looked up and down, shook his head and said: "I didn't realize it, there are a lot of beggars without clothes."

"Is this the same thing? No clothes were given to the crematorium? Where has your focus gone?" Wei Wu almost roared.

After he finished roaring and looked back, Qin He was gone.

Looking around, at the other end of the street, Qin He was running very fast with his bare legs.

Apparently he escaped.

What a joke, the secret is not hidden, what are you waiting for if you don't run away?

"If you dare to run, chase me!"
