Alchemy

Zhuangzi said: Therefore, Zhi's disciples asked Zhi, "Does a thief have a way?" Zhi said, "What's the right thing to do without a wrong way? I mistakenly thought that what is hidden in the room is holy; entering first means bravery; coming out after it means righteousness; knowing whether it is possible means knowing; dividing evenly means benevolence. There is no one in the world who can become a great thief without being prepared for the five."

This is a quality set of stories. Legendary. The content is easy to understand and the artistic conception is profound. This is a rare positive reading in recent times.

This book is so interesting! Especially in the story "The Art of White Physiology", the Thousand Magician in it is so cool! I like the plot of "Double Dragon Club". The duel between two masters is really exciting! Just like what is said in the book, "Despicable means can also save people, and upright justice can also kill people." It made me see the dangers of the world. This book is well worth reading!

Very good. Very well written! Principle is like water, simplicity is the great way, goodness is like water, pure water is colorless and tasteless. But in the pursuit of the highest path, it is ever-changing, and its interest is just the flavor of narrative? Otherwise, for hundreds of years, after Wu Chengen, his grandchildren would not be poor. Admire the author. Ashamed of myself. Interesting and informative, read it in one go.

Bai Xiang is divided into two factions: the innocent and the dirty. The dirty ones traffic in men and women, kidnap and extort money. It can be said to be the most despicable industry in the 360 ​​industries. However, there are various ways in it, which are horrifying to talk about. For example, the Bai Xiang abducts women and coaxes them with sweet words, and the Tongzi Xiang specializes in targeting children who have not yet developed their minds. The Qing sect is a little more sophisticated. They go to various social occasions with well-dressed clothes and specialize in coaxing the wives of wealthy families with unfortunate families. Ding Jiu was once the White Prime Minister. He was retaliated for washing his hands in a golden basin and lost his wife and daughter. He was also a pitiful person! When he was confused, he was taken in by Zheng Nanshi, who gave him a house and a touch of warmth. When Ding Jiu rescued Zheng Nan, his daughter was abducted by Bai Xiang. Zheng Nanshi sent Ding Jiu away to please the director. Ding Jiu came back to take revenge, but adopted Zheng Nanshi's daughter. The whole story is tightly linked, without being sloppy, and the writing is clear and concise, just like a casual conversation in the market, and it is interesting to listen to.

This book starts from the "anti-trafficking" during the Republic of China. The protagonist was abducted by traffickers when he was a child, and his life took a complete turn. As an adult, he tried to wash his hands in a golden basin, but was poisoned and his entire family was destroyed. Under the author's indomitable spirit, he clearly distinguished his grievances and finally became a good person after many setbacks. This book is a collection of short stories with rich and tortuous plots, short and concise length, and the author's language is vivid and accurate. This book is a book that cannot be put down and is so hearty that it is definitely a book that lovers of novels should not miss.

These old articles are better than those written by young people. They don't describe too many side things and go straight to the topic. I like this style. I can even say that this is the best novel I have read in two or three years.

Despicable means can also save people, and upright justice can also kill people. Thieves also have their ways, and the intrigues and mysteries in the rivers and lakes are intertwined. Has "Bajie", a light lit for others, shined into your heart? The author's writing is beautiful and the story is detailed, but the strange thing is, what does alchemy mean? Are the stories mentioned in the book true? We don't know, but if we read this book carefully, we will have the answer. The combination of mystery and Chinese horror gives people shocking power.

Write about heretics, the scenery of the city, the world, and people's hearts. There is no absolute black or white in this world. The short stories bring together the subtle humanity. Worth reading.

Why doesn't anyone read this book? 😡😡😡These short stories are so beautiful! 😍😍😍

Although the article is short, it is comprehensive and can be read

The story is short and concise, but the character descriptions are very vivid! Especially the last two, the old story has a new feel! The psychological description is spot on! There are also some Zen tricks in there. Worth recommending!

Reading this book for the first time feels like reading a story, which is very interesting. Because we Chinese all like to listen to stories and don't like to read descriptions. But this story has a deep meaning. If you think about it carefully, you will find that it has another deep meaning, and the plot is very cleverly set up. Especially the chapter about the con man, it really feels like fate is arranging everything, but the final ending says that people can actually change their destiny by seizing the opportunity at a certain moment. That is, it is a process of reversal, reversal and reversal, much like the diversity of life. I feel it is worth reading again and again to savor life. Then the previous short stories are about human nature and kindness. A person will reveal a lot of kindness at one moment, but will reveal cruel humanity at another moment. You can't say that he is wrong, but when viewed from another perspective, he seems to be wrong again. It feels like everyone has made mistakes, but everyone's mistakes can be forgiven. All in all, this book is worth reading again and again.

This book made me see human nature clearly and reshaped my world view. From strangers to life-and-death best friends, and then to ruthless betrayal for a small profit; in the trap, but overflowing with compassion and secretly being manipulated, and finally breaking the trap; making friends with strange methods, setting up a trap for ten years, and taking away countless treasures with one thought; influenced by his mother in the early days, he only lit lamps for others throughout his life, ignoring what he really wanted; an innocent seed was planted with ulterior motives, and was used, and finally understood that true strength lies in capacity rather than winning or losing. It really moved me deeply, and it truly corresponded to the sentence in the introduction: "Despicable means can also save people, and upright justice can also kill people."

Why is it white? When you open this fantasy novel, you will realize that this is the most despised profession among the 360 ​​professions. It focuses on confusing the public with lies, selling men and women, and cheating. The white physiognomy is similar to that of thieves, and it focuses on the professional ethics of these black industries. This book also contains anecdotes about Qian Sha (gamblers) and Guo Ji (robbers); the latter two are new compilations of Journey to the West, focusing on the Ming and Qing Dynasties and the Republic of China, and the writing is full of ancient flavor.

What do you want to express? When I first started reading it, I had such doubts, but after reading these short stories, I understood the author's intention. Do you value the result or the means, do you care about the ending or the process? Do you feel lucky or despised to be saved by a method you despise? Everyone has his own yardstick in his heart. We don't need to judge other people's standards, but what we do must at least be meaningful. Just like what is said in the book, "There is no meaning in being strong, and it is not even as good as being weak. Only when you understand why your strength exists will you be truly powerful."

Very meaningful, okay

Only the sun and the human heart cannot be looked directly at

We all have a side that is not recognized by the world. There is a confused monster living in our hearts. We can clearly see the flowers blooming in the four seasons, but we cannot see the origin and decline. We can see the appearance clearly, but we cannot see the true self. We have explored the vastest world, but we often get lost in the distance between people. I think this book is probably about such a story.

Although this book is small, its shape and sound make people think deeply. Different people have different feelings after reading this book, but the only feeling is that they have aroused idealism and a little bit of comfort from reading the book. This book is truly one of the must-reads

The storyline is compact, interesting, and philosophical.

A book about human nature, very in-depth and worth reading

Yes, it is like the story telling that I often watched when I was a child. Each story is inspiring and can be regarded as a reading to pass the time in leisure time.

Like watching a movie Tomato is not a platform for this book

I would like to know if the author is from the Yangtze River Delta. I feel that his knowledge is so broad.

Many things are not black and white. Maybe he didn't want to do that, but he was forced to make a choice. Some people use normal principles to criticize, but it is not their true intention.

The legend among thieves, the three religions and nine streams, the five elements and eight works, the various deception methods in the old days were difficult to guard against, but now they have been renamed and said in a different way, and they still exist, but there are fewer knights who act chivalrously and rob the rich and give to the poor. Maybe it's because now that poverty has been completely eliminated in our country, there is no need for so many heroic and courageous people. Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong in the back are a bit far-fetched, and the dog's tail continues the mink.

Time is not in vain, it is a bit of a modern version of Yilin or story telling. The short stories are very interesting and want to be read to the end.

A very nice short story, fascinating and thought-provoking...

It's good to watch. I like this. There is no very annoying plot. Good reviews.
