Magic Jianghu
by Tang Sifang
About This Novel
Magic was called illusion and sleight of hand in ancient China and has a history of more than 2,000 years. In the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, entertained visitors from the Western Regions with the "fish dragon manyan"; Zuo Ci in the Eastern Han Dynasty teased Cao Cao and Sun Quan with "fishing with an empty pole"; Du Qisheng in the Song Dynasty made his name in the annals of history with his "killing and resurrection" trick; in the Ming and Qing dynasties, magic performances have penetrated into the streets and alleys. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Western magic was introduced to China. Tianjin's "Jihua Luo" and Beijing's "Kuaishou Lu" became famous at home and abroad. In 1940, Shan Yi Tang, a gathering place for artists from all over the world, was brutally wiped out, and the legendary magic "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun", which combined ancient and modern wisdom, was lost. More than fifty years later, 13-year-old Luo Siliang, heir to a family of magicians, was tricked by an eccentric old man into the world of martial arts. He learned skills, traveled to western Hunan, fought against heroes, experienced life and death, and uncovered half a century of secrets... Open this book and let you see the cultural heritage behind magic and the inside story of the world!

Gain knowledge
After reading this book, I gained knowledge! There are all kinds of things, magic techniques, and sects and families. They are all explained clearly and logically, and most of them are true. This author is amazing.
very good
Not bad. Come on. Keep it up!
What method did Old Man Lu use to perform tricks with coins? ! So curious
Seeing Luo Siliang's confusion about Old Man Lu turning into coins, he suddenly had the urge to watch a good show and wanted to know how Old Man Lu changed. Generally speaking, juggling uses people's visual blind spots to perform magic tricks, but it stands to reason that Luo Siliang could see through the mystery at a glance when he asked Grandpa Luo to do tricks with coins. Why couldn't he see through Old Man Lu's movements? I hope the author will decipher it as soon as possible, and I am very curious. I didn't know anything about tricks before, but I remember the teacher said that all tricks have a "process", just like the "face-changing" trick in dramas. When an actor changes his face, he always performs some preparatory actions, including one hand behind his back, a quick bow of his head when changing his face, and a cloak prepared in advance for blocking. With this set of procedures in place, viewers who are not particularly serious and observant will not easily discover the mystery. However, forgive me for my incompetence. I am just like Luo Xiaozi, who cannot see the mystery behind Old Man Lu's tricks. I still hope that the author will reveal the answer~

Confirmed by the eyes, it is a book that reveals the secrets of magic!
Magic! When I saw these two words, I inadvertently remembered something. When I was volunteering once, one of my teammates was tasked with playing a magician. It was also during that activity that I discovered that anyone can do magic as long as they master the tricks! But what is certain is that today's magic no longer gives people a very mysterious feeling. Today's magic relies more on some preliminary preparations, thus giving a very mysterious feeling to the audience who do not know the truth. The "Yulongmanyan", "empty pole fishing", "stealing the sky and changing the sun", etc. Mentioned by the author are really very advanced. Anyway, I was stunned when I saw the old man's operation and didn't understand what the principle was. Www, the author is too troublesome! Looking forward to the reveal later. The eyes confirmed that this is a book with cultural heritage! When it comes to the topic of cultural inheritance, I can't help but want to say a few words. Chinese history and culture are profound and profound, which is the foundation of life. Traditional culture cannot be lost, and we must also introduce advanced ideas! !
