Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

Chapter 731: With Senior Brother Zhang here, I have the advantage
Zhang Zhiwei began to paint a rosy picture for the "national teacher", telling him that as long as he worked hard and harmonized the yin and yang and the five elements in the human body, there would be great benefits in the future.

They might even consider helping it reshape its body and severing its connection with itself, allowing it to become an independent being.

Seeing that the "national teacher" did not believe it, he also used the example of Zhenwu Emperor.

The two generals, the tortoise and the snake, under the seat of the Great Emperor Zhenwu were the result of the Great Emperor Zhenwu's delusions.

When faced with false thoughts, inner demons, the three corpses and other delusions, most people would choose to destroy them if they could, but the Great Emperor Zhenwu did not do so.

He stripped them free and cut out his own stomach and intestines to reshape their bodies.

Among them, the stomach turned into a divine turtle, and the intestines turned into a divine snake, which were the two generals, the turtle and the snake, under his command.

As for whether cutting out the stomach and intestines would have any effect on the Great Emperor Zhenwu...

Maybe there are some, but it shouldn't be a big deal. When ordinary people get sick, they have their stomachs and intestines cut out. Aren't they fine? Not to mention this legendary figure.

Take Zhang Zhiwei for example, he could quickly grow back his hands and feet even if they were lost, let alone his intestines.

If Zhang Zhiwei could completely cut off his delusions, he wouldn't mind reshaping a body for the "National Master" like the Great Emperor Zhenwu.

But now, he is still a little short of this step. He can only destroy the evil thoughts in his heart, but cannot cut off ties with it.

After hearing the "big pie" that Zhang Zhiwei had drawn, the "National Master"'s expression kept changing.

Although its first goal is definitely to suppress the big-faced thief, take charge of its own affairs, and gain control of the body.

But ideals are full and reality is very skinny. After being hit several times in succession, this obsession is no longer as strong as it was at the beginning. In fact, the longer the time, the slimmer the chance seems.

Now it is just trying to protect itself, submitting to the tyranny and living in disgrace.

But it felt unwilling to work wholeheartedly for the Big-Faced Thief, so except for working hard at the beginning to show its value, it became more and more lazy.

Instead of helping the Big Face Thief to adjust the five elements and help him become stronger, it is better to summon the two younger brothers Lu Jin and Lu Ci into the inner scene to train them well and vent their pent-up energy.

And now, receiving another big pie from the big-faced thief, the "national teacher" couldn't help but feel conflicted.

On the one hand, it wanted to give up. Since the chance of replacing the other was slim, it would be nice if it could really break away like the two generals, the turtle and the snake, and start its own business.

But at the same time, it is very unwilling to give up. After all, how can it just let go of the obsession that gave birth to it?
Maybe... I should hold on a little longer, the "National Master" began to feel conflicted again.

Zhang Zhiwei talks a lot but thinks little, so he has fewer distracting thoughts.

As his inner demon, "National Master" speaks little but thinks a lot in his mind.

Little did he know that Zhang Zhiwei knew all of its thoughts. Seeing that this guy was wavering, Zhang Zhiwei was ready to give him a fire.

What Zhang Zhiwei meant by "bringing fire" did not mean to use the Samadhi True Fire to burn it. Zhang Zhiwei was a person with very stable emotions and would not get angry easily.

Even if the "national teacher" is not doing well in this aspect, his other aspects are still remarkable. He would not do it for such a small thing.

Let me show you how I can adjust myself... Zhang Zhiwei thought to himself.

Then he leaped up, turned into light and came to the top of Tianmen Peak. The big tree on the top of the mountain still welcomed him warmly.

Zhang Zhiwei greeted the big tree, then sat cross-legged under it to practice. The big tree was also very attentive and dropped down starlight to create a suitable environment for him.

When he first started to adjust the five elements of the human body, Zhang Zhiwei was a little confused as he only had a concept but no method, so it was difficult to get started. However, the breakthrough point was the "National Master".

He relied on the heart of the "national teacher" which belongs to the fire element to achieve harmony, which is equivalent to the fire among the five elements taking the initiative to mediate. This is a shortcut.

However, Zhang Zhiwei did not act like a hands-off boss. When the "national master" was blending the five elements, he was also secretly observing through the ability of his heart's true nature. He was not completely ignorant of blending the five elements.

In addition, since the "National Master" was in a slump some time ago, he has also practiced some adjustments and has gained a lot of experience. He has also reached the critical point of a small level and can break through at any time.

This is also the reason why he made promises to the "National Master" this time. Among the Thirty-Six Stratagems, attacking the heart is the best one, and using the Samadhi True Fire to burn it is really a joke.

He wants the "national teacher" to recognize his position. I can do it with or without you. You'd better think this through.

In the previous few times, Zhang Zhiwei had achieved the harmony of gold and fire, water and wood, and this time, he adjusted water and fire.

As the saying goes, water and fire cannot coexist. Water and fire are the most conflicting of the five elements, and are also the most challenging.

It can be said that as long as water and fire can be harmonized well, everything else is basically just a matter of hard work and will come naturally.

In fact, the essence of the harmony of the five elements is the harmony of yin and yang. Once you understand this, it will be easy to get started.

Among the five elements, fire is the sun and water is the sun. We need to follow the principle of harmony between yin and yang and start with the principle of Tai Chi's rotation.

Of course, to harmonize yin and yang, one must start from the stronger side, just like practicing Yin Five Thunders and Yang Five Thunders, in order to achieve a balance.

In Zhang Zhiwei's body, although the yin and yang tend to be stable, they actually have an emphasis. His yang attribute is actually higher than his yin attribute.

Fire is the sun, so he starts with fire and comprehensively adjusts water to make the two tend to be balanced, achieving the effect of fire being strong and water being mutually beneficial.

Once achieved, the water and fire energy spread around Zhang Zhiwei's body, and his left half turned aqua blue, while the right half turned fiery red.

Then slowly, the aqua blue and fiery red began to twist and rotate with his middle dantian as the center, and his complexion kept changing between fiery red and aqua blue.

The rotation speed is getting faster and faster, the distribution of red and blue is becoming more and more even, and the rotation speed is becoming slower and slower.

The fiery red and aqua blue are like the yin and yang fish in the Tai Chi diagram. They rotate in an orderly manner in a way that conforms to some principle of heaven and earth, and blend into it little by little, with the colors becoming lighter and lighter.

Until he could no longer see the red and blue, Zhang Zhiwei suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were shining brightly and his gaze was as real as substance. It was quite intimidating. Even the big tree behind him was so frightened by the strong sense of oppression that its branches tightened and dared not shake.

At the same time, in the inner space, the "national master" who witnessed all this could not calm down, and was amazed that the big-faced thief could do such a thing?
Even for it, it is difficult to achieve this step, just like those who play the balancing act, it is not realistic to expect to achieve it in one go, it requires many attempts and explorations, but the big-faced thief actually succeeded so easily? !
Moreover, he could even harmonize water and fire, so doesn't that mean that harmonizing the other five elements is a natural thing? ! Oh no... The "national teacher" suddenly felt a pang in his heart. The big-faced thief could do it himself, so if he just slacked off, wouldn't it be worthless?

How would the big-faced thief deal with worthless people? The "national teacher" didn't dare to think about it. Anyway, if it were him, he would definitely not keep worthless things.

At this moment, it thought of the big cake Zhang Zhiwei had just painted for it, and suddenly felt annoyed. What was it pretending to be? !

It couldn't sit still anymore, so it jumped out quickly. Its previous majestic form was gone, and it turned into a fist-sized white-haired ball, telling Zhang Zhiwei that it agreed. From now on, it would definitely help him practice well, without any ulterior motives, and ensure that the task was completed.

Zhang Zhiwei looked at the "national teacher" who had changed his expression and said with a smile:

"Hou Za, you are a man of great wisdom and wisdom. What I said before still stands, but it depends on your performance!"

"Squeak!"

How could the white-haired ball dare to refuse? He nodded rapidly.

If other people in the hall saw this scene, they would be shocked. Who would have thought that the usually majestic deputy leader would be so different in front of the leader?

Zhang Zhiwei could read its thoughts and knew that it was really scared and not just pretending to obey, so he waved his hand and told it to go to "work" now.

The "State Master" disappeared from the hall space in a flash, appeared in the small world of the human body, and began to adjust the five elements of the human body, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwei nodded in satisfaction, thinking: "Although he is working very hard now, this guy is a veteran. I wonder how long this beating can last? This time it's an attack on his heart, next time, I'll have to use fire."

After adjusting the balance of the five elements and knocking on the "National Master", Zhang Zhiwei felt very happy. He looked at the sky and saw that the sun had already set, so he continued to sit cross-legged and began to absorb the moonlight and starlight.

On the other side, in the Magic City, in the foreign concessions, in a luxurious private room in Fengming Building.

Wang Ai, Huoyun Evil God, Huo Tianhong, Lu Yusheng, Huang Jiuye, Huang Liuye, and Xiao Aqiao are in a meeting.

"I have some bad news to tell you. One of my elder sisters sent me a message saying that because you no longer sell opium and prohibit people from selling opium in your territory, which affects the interests of the Shasun family, they have already arranged for people to uproot you!"

Xiao Aqiaoqiao, the big sister of Fengming Tower, said seriously that although Fengming Tower is not strong, it is well-informed and has a wide network of contacts.

"Big sister, which big sister? In the whole Magic City, is there anyone who can be the big sister's big sister?" Wang Ai asked in surprise.

"The wife of the richest man in the Far East, her information should be accurate!" said Xiao Aqiao.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ai immediately knew who it was. Having been in the Magic City for so long, he naturally knew all the forces here well.

The richest man in the Far East generally refers to Hardoon, a Hebrew who was once the doorman of the Sassoon family.

The Sassoon family was the largest opium dealer in China. It can be said that they were the biggest driving force behind the Second Opium War. After the war, they occupied nearly 70% of the opium market share in Great Britain. In order to purchase goods from the Sassoon family, many people bribed his doorman.

Over time, Hotung accumulated his first pot of gold in life. Then he quit his job as a doorman and started his own lucky life. Thanks to several wars, he became the richest man in the Far East.

Even the extremely valuable Nanjing Road, a place in the foreign land under his feet, was occupied by him alone, nearly half.

The reason why he was able to achieve such success, besides having the support of the Sassoon family, was also because he married a good wife.

This wife was a mixed-race. It was said that she had fallen into brothels in her early years, but she managed to make a name for herself. It was said that many of the decisions that doubled Hardoon's assets were made by her.

"Madam Luo is actually my eldest sister's elder. No wonder Fengming Tower is so stable and not many people dare to move!" Wang Ai sighed. Although his Wang family is rich, they are still a little inferior to this kind of people.

"Although Mr. Hatong is not a member of the Shasun family, he has connections. The news he gave is probably true!" Huo Tianhong, the eldest of the three tycoons, frowned and said, "Ever since the ban on the sale of opium, I knew this day would come. The Shasun family is so powerful that they want to crush us. I'm afraid it's as easy as crushing an ant..."

"boom!"

Before Huo Tianhong could finish his words, Fire Cloud Evil God slammed the table, turned his head to look at him, a ferocious smile on his lips.

"Who are you calling an ant? You are one, not me. Let the Shasun family come. I will kill as many as they come."

Huo Tianhong swallowed his saliva and did not argue with Huoyun Evil God. Unlike Zhang Wanlin before, he was afraid of this new third brother from the bottom of his heart.

The second brother, Lu Yusheng, said: "We are naturally aware of the third brother's strength, but our territory is too vast. If the other party attacks, we will not be able to defend it."

"Moreover, since our Yongxin Company stopped doing the opium business, we are not only under external pressure, but also under internal pressure from the Caoqing Gang and even the Hongmen. Once a fight breaks out, I am afraid that the whole body will be affected!"

Yongxin Company is composed of the elite members of the Caoqing Gang, which also sells opium. Yongxin took the lead in banning smoking. There were also great internal conflicts within the Caoqing Gang, and they even proposed to dismiss Huo Tianhong and Lu Yusheng and send new people to take over the company.

However, they were suppressed by Fire Cloud Evil God, and the original gang leaders were killed and replaced. However, this method was never popular with the people. Although the rebellion was suppressed on the surface, once something happened, chaos would definitely arise again.

Lu Yusheng looked at Wang Ai and said, "Our current situation is like Xiang Yu being trapped at Gaixia, attacked from both sides. Xiao Ai, have you consulted the Little Heavenly Master? What did he say?"

Wang Ai said: "Brother Zhang said that it is better to strike first than to passively take a beating!"

"Who will be attacked?" Huoyun Evil God asked hurriedly.

"Evil God, you should stay in charge of the company. If you leave, I'm afraid the company will be taken over by others!" Wang Ai said, "Now the Shasun family wants to take action against us, so we must naturally take action against the people of the Shasun family."

Xiao Aqiao reminded: "It is not easy to behead the people of the Shasun family. They must have a lot of guards around them, and they have close ties with the British royal family. If you touch them, you will offend the British royal family."

"There is a rumor that the British Royal Knights have also come to the Magic City. We don't know why."

The Royal Knights... Wang Ai inexplicably remembered the Royal Anglican Knights, a joint effort of the Catholic Church and the British royal family that Zhang Zhiwei had mentioned before. Their cathedral was destroyed last time, so he was afraid that the newcomers had ill intentions, so it was a good opportunity to get rid of them all at once.

Wang Ai waved his hand and said loudly: "I don't understand why they say we are Xiang Yu trapped at Gaixia, as if this demon city is very dangerous for us."

"A long time ago, Senior Brother Zhang and I went north to destroy the Japanese pirates. We even killed the general of the Japanese pirates. No one could stop us wherever we went. The scene of our heroic spirit is still vivid in my mind."

"Although the forces in the Demon City are complicated, no matter what, if a war really breaks out, I have Senior Brother Zhang here, so I have the advantage!"
