10 Ancient Jianghu deception, with elegant name and brutal means!

Have you ever been cheated? Touch porcelain, honey trap, fortune telling, magic ... show you the ancient wisdom behind metaphysics and the tricks in the rivers and lakes.

Wind, horse, swallow, sparrow, porcelain, gold, criticism, skin, color and hanging are the top ten tricks in the Jianghu, which refer to the top ten tricks, and more importantly, to ten kinds of swindlers or gangs.

Feng, also known as "bee", is a kind of gang crime.

Like bees, they swarmed in and suddenly dispersed, coming quickly and walking fast. For example. In the late Qing Dynasty, officialdom was corrupt, and many officials who committed crimes would manage from top to bottom and spend huge sums of money to eliminate disasters. A governor in Shanxi was reported to be corrupt, and the whole family was in a rash. I was about to operate silver when I suddenly found a group of strangers coming to the city and secretly staying in an inn. These people are all dressed up and speak with a Beijing accent. The governor understood at a glance: "This is the Beijing Inspector Group! Come and investigate me! I understand this number. "

The next day, the governor sent a messenger to the inn and asked for a visit. After the dispatched people entered the inn, they also checked the situation of those people while delivering letters. The group of people deliberately showed an alert look, saying that they had something important and it was not convenient to see guests. The messenger was turned away and hurried back to report. As soon as the governor heard this, he prepared two hundred and two thousand silver tickets and gave them to others the next day. The man sent 220 thousand silver tickets in and brought back a "three-foot white silk" When the governor saw it, he was shocked: "That's what it means-hang yourself." The governor tried his best to scrape together 202 thousand and sent someone to send it in before dawn. This time, the man brought back a bunch of flower feathers and a bunch of safety buckles on his head. When the governor saw it, he breathed a sigh of relief and his head was saved: "Take off the flower feathers on the top and cut them into civilians." But I spent four hundred and two thousand pieces of silver, so I can't become a civilian, so I can move again, and take out Yu Pei's cat's eye jade bracelet and dredge it, even if I get a magistrate to Dangdang. After a long time, the scattered money came back.

After receiving these things, the group knew that the governor had taken out all his things and soon lost them. The governor was still waiting for news, and soon the real inspector came. When the warden saw that all the supervisors had arrived at the door, he naturally understood the whole story and greeted him with a smile: "I don't know if Brother Nian has arrived, long time no see!" Everyone in Douchayuan thinks this governor is incredible. He is so happy when he is dying, and his psychological quality is extraordinary. He is an old fox.

"The Governor himself!" The inspector wants the governor to turn himself in. Hearing this, the satrap was beaming, thinking that he was letting himself choose an official: "Miss Brother, knowing the state with five flavors is enough! If you really can't, go back to your hometown and be a magistrate. " Everyone in Duchayuan was shocked: "What are you talking about?" "What do you mean by missing brother?" "This person is confused and sent back to Gyeonggi for retrial!" At the governor's command, the Qing soldiers came up and tied the governor up. At this moment, the governor suddenly realized and shouted, "You are so cruel, you eat black! I received 402,000 silver tickets, but I still turned my back on people! "

The detective was so angry that his nose was almost crooked: "Don't you dare tell a dirty lie, give it to me!" " "At this time, the group of scammers had already gone away. Later, the whole country wanted for a long time and did not catch this group of people. This is the "wind", which comes and goes suddenly.

The horse is a single person, and one person cheats, which corresponds to the cheating of the "wind" gang.

This kind of person either pretends to be a Taoist or a monk, giving people a sense of superiority. There is such a case in Qiantang in the late Qing Dynasty: there was a large family named Zhang, who was kind and charitable. One day, a man dressed as a monk came to Zhang Dashan's door and shouted, "Give me one hundred and twenty pieces of silver!" " Zhang Dashan opened the door and saw: "Who are you?" Why should I give you one hundred and twenty pieces of silver? ""Don't leave until you give it to me! " Said and sat down in front of Zhang Dashan. It was a cold winter day, with a cold wind and heavy snow.

Zhang Dashan said, "The monk has something to say." "No" The monk sat cross-legged and closed his eyes. For three days and nights in a row, I didn't move, and neither water nor rice entered. People think that monks were frozen to death. As they approached, they saw him breathing evenly and his face was red. Everyone was surprised and said, "What a monk! Most people starve to death rather than freeze to death! " Zhang Dashan still refused to pay. The monk opened his eyes and said to Zhang Dashan, "Do you believe I killed you with the palm of Tathagata's hand?" "The monk is merciful, and the monk will not shoot me to death." Zhang Dashan said with a smile. The monk glanced at Zhang Dashan: "Let me show you!" Then he put his hands together and rubbed them violently. His hands were immediately wrapped in a blue flame, and the monk didn't feel any pain.

Everyone around was shocked: "Oh, my God!" Zhang Dashan still refuses. The monk finally gave up, took out a ball of rope, tied it to Zhang Dashan's knocker, lit it, and shouted, "I will burn you to death with Samadhi!" " "Say that finish, I will walk with my ass up. People were surprised to find that the rope kept burning, but it kept burning. They couldn't help telling Zhang Dashan, "This is a real fairy, so you'd better follow him." Zhang Dashan still smiling without a word. One night two days later, the monk quietly came back and knocked on Zhang Dashan's door.

"How did you see through it?" The monk asked. Zhang Dashan smiled and said, "If you don't use these technologies, maybe I will give you some money. I want to play with you after you get it. I am not a fool to be a good person. If a person comes, I will give money foolishly. Isn't that a fool? " "Hehe." The monk smiled. "You didn't eat or drink for three days and three nights. You didn't starve to death or freeze to death. Others don't know what happened, but I found it. When you first came to my door, you wore a circle of arhat beads around your neck. I counted 36, and three days later, they became 30. Those beads are made of ginseng, which have the effects of dispelling cold, keeping warm, resisting diseases and prolonging life. You eat two every day, so it's no problem. Most people won't notice the number of beads around your neck, but I will. " "Ha ha." The monk smiled again.

"Your Tathagata palm is actually wrapped in batter on your hand, mixed with yellow phosphorus, which spontaneously ignites and can't be burned; We all know that you only burn the rope by soaking it in salt water first. " "Ha ha ha ha!" The monk laughed heartily. "No discord, no concord, Zhang Dashan. Because I lied to you so hard, you have to work hard without credit. You can reward two! " Zhang Dashan smiled: "What's wrong with doing something with this IQ?" Then he took out a silver ingot and handed it to him. "Get down to business." The monk walked out with a smile and a silver face. Afterwards, Zhang Dashan thought carefully: "Alas, I was cheated."

Yan, also known as "Yan", refers to beauty, which is taken from Yan Ruyu.

"Yan" refers to people who cheat with beauty, not only beautiful women, but also handsome men, women cheat men and men cheat women. As long as the color starts, they are taken in. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, many children of the Eight Banners idled around, and some Baylor's masters idled around the eight hutongs all day, drinking Huasan and sleeping in brothels. At this time, the female liar can take advantage of it. This kind of liar has a high accomplishment and knowledge, knows piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, can recite poems and write lyrics, and occasionally can talk about national affairs and the world pattern, and from time to time make a state of helplessness. Lord Baylor likes this sentence: "Why does the girl sigh?"

"I don't know, but my daughter, a native of XX, came here only because of her poor family and became a dusty person." Lord Baylor had a brainwave: "What if I redeem you?" "Dare, dare, my daughter is a modest person." "The girl laughs at herself, and the girl can't come into my main house. I can only buy a house in the suburbs of Beijing, and the girl can only be a wing. " Lord baylor planned it. "So ... my daughter is willing to be a cow and a horse for me!" The female liar knelt down with tears in her eyes.

"Get up! I have five hundred and twenty silver tickets here. Take them away and redeem them! " "Thank you!" The girl went out with a silver ticket and ran out. The husband waiting outside quickly helped her change clothes and put on makeup, and the two fled the capital overnight. When it was almost dawn, Lord Baylor saw that the girl didn't come back and realized that something was wrong, but it was already late!

Bird, this is the most calculating one!

Sparrow, also known as "lack", means gap and refers to its position in officialdom. Where there is a shortage of children, there are people on stage to block them. Such an overall situation needs to mobilize many elements, contact many people, and the game producers plan and plan, and only after the game is completed will they leave with a lot of money. The people in this bureau are generally composed of the following kinds: young and beautiful women, beautiful, knowledgeable, gentle in appearance and extremely vicious in heart; Beloved, this person's true identity is often the husband or concubine of a beautiful young woman. In short, they colluded with each other. Prop master, good at lettering, being an official and official seal; Black boy, this position is often held by the master himself, and there are also special killers, but it must be a close friend of the beautiful girl and the master, usually an apprentice or a biological son; Stupid bird, lonely scholar, empty ambition to serve the country, but no door to serve the country.

In the early years of the Republic of China, such a scam appeared in western Sichuan. Touts first collect clues and see where the county magistrate is going to move. Once there is a vacancy, it means that a new county magistrate will fill this position. At that time, it was commonplace to buy and sell officials. Sometimes a person serves as the county magistrate of seven or eight counties, and new and old county magistrates come and go, and the people simply don't know who the county magistrate is. Moreover, when the county magistrate took office, there was a power of attorney, and he could cooperate with a tout. No one can tell whether this is true or not. Favourite first inquired about the place where the county magistrate was going to take office, and then collected the information and addresses of some poor scholars nearby, and then began to do business. On the day when the new county magistrate took office, touts arranged for the killer to ambush on the way to the county magistrate's office, buried the land and waited for an opportunity to kill the county magistrate, and then left with the official certificate. After killing the county magistrate, he began to look for the impoverished scholar who had been eyeing in advance. The scholar was idle at home when he knocked at the door. The scholar opened the door and the master came forward and said, "Sir, my wife is in trouble. Can you spend the night at your house? " Scholars are generally affectionate, and then look at the enchanting figure of the young woman behind them, and it is a pity: "Let's talk about it first." "What do you do? Why did it end like this? " The scholar asked.

"Alas ..." The lady came into the back room with tears in her eyes. "alas!" Touts began to speak, "Sir, listen to me. I have been waiting for this opportunity to be the county magistrate. My grandfather spent 42 thousand silver to buy the position of this county magistrate. I am the master's teacher. Accompany the master's family to take office today. I didn't expect to meet bandits in the mountains and blow up the owner's sedan chair. My master was killed and my money was robbed. Now only my wife and her underage son are left. " Said and pointed to the murderer who killed the county magistrate during the day. "Oh," the scholar nodded sympathetically. "Poor thing."

"Now that the master is gone, we don't know what to do." The master cried and immediately asked, "What did a gentleman do?" The scholar sighed: "I am the last scholar in the Qing Dynasty. Later, the imperial examination failed, and later it was cancelled. Now I am in my twenties and have accomplished nothing. " "Oh?" Bao Wen said in surprise, "Mr. Wang is a man who has read many poems!" " ""dare, dare. " The scholar blushed. Bao asked and pretended to think for a while, then suddenly shouted, "Madam, it's saved, it's saved! "The scholar was surprised:" What did the old man say? " The master said with tears, "Sir, only you can save my wife."

"Why did the old man say that?" "Listen to me, Sir. My grandfather spent half his life's savings to buy this official, and he died after a day's work. This is so wrong. Our money is gone, our relationship is clean, and we just took office. Today, my wife is an orphan and widowed mother. She needs money but has no money. She doesn't need anyone. She is helpless. If ... if Mr. Wang doesn't mind, she can marry my wife and take office with Shangguan. Mr. Wang is a man who has read many books. He will know how to govern the country and make it safe. Governing this small county is like cooking small and fresh! In this way, our money will not be wasted, and our wife will be relied on. After taking office, Mr. Wang Can gave full play to his talents and showed his ambition to serve the country. Isn't it kill three birds with one stone? " Touts said and looked at the book. Hearing this, the scholar almost peed with joy, but said coldly, "Old man, what are you talking about? When your wife is in trouble, what is your intention as a host to solve this tragic thing without considering expedient measures? " This group of swindlers thoroughly studied the psychology of poor scholars. The master said, "What are you pretending to be?" At this moment, the lady opened the curtain and came out in tears. She said to the master, "Teacher Wang is a man who has read many poems and is upright. I don't deserve Mr. Wang in the broken house. "

As soon as the scholar saw it, he couldn't hold it any longer and flew away. He said, "madam, this is killing me." I didn't mean to dislike my wife ... just ... just ... "My wife wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and gave a deep cry." The first day-"The scholar was crisp. The master smiled and said, "God never shuts one door but he opens another. God is beautiful, and God is beautiful! " In this way, the scholar and his wife got married, and then took office, full of ambition, looking for power everywhere, eager to display all their talents at once, in order to realize their long-standing lofty ambitions. In the accounting office, the touts and his wife plot against each other. After the scholar took office for a few months, he searched for more than 2,000 yuan under various excuses. Scholars handle cases during the day and sleep with beautiful women at night. They are extremely happy. Later, the tout presented a bong, saying it was refreshing and aphrodisiac, and the scholar smoked another bong cream.

In this way, for a year, I was tired of handling cases, fighting in bed, and smoking hurt my health. The scholar is as thin as a bone and dying. The touts and his wife saw that the child was useless. He was sleepy at night, so they smothered him with pillows and ran away with all the silver tickets. The local people have not seen the county magistrate for several days in a row, and they are full of complaints. When they heard the wind above, they quickly sent people down to make a surprise investigation, pushed open the gate of the county government, and there was no one. Then they went into the backyard, and a stench came to their faces. The scholar magistrate had rotted and maggots were breeding.

This is a real case. Later, the national government also investigated this matter, and finally failed to find the group of swindlers. Alas, all the evil deeds created in the past were greedy and ignorant from the beginning. The Buddhist scriptures are absolutely right. Human nature is fragile. Together with greed, delusion and resentment, it opens the door to evil. There is a saying in "Four Seasons from Fan": Life is in nature, life is in people's success, there is no way to be blessed or ill, and only people call themselves. All disasters are of your own making. "

Porcelain means touching porcelain.

This thing is very popular in Tianjin. You were walking in the street, and an old woman rushed over with a porcelain bottle on her arm, and then you two bumped into each other. The old woman fell to the ground, the porcelain bottle was smashed, and the old woman was unconscious. At this time, the old woman's eldest son, second son, third son and even great-grandson will suddenly appear from her side, crying for mom and dad and calling for being an official!

At this time, a good-hearted person will come out of the crowd and tell you to treat such poor people and spend money to eliminate disasters, otherwise once you report to the government, it will be a big deal. You can give her dozens of taels of silver to get rid of her. When you empty your pockets and give them all the money, they will pick up the old woman and leave, saying that they are going to see a doctor, but in fact they secretly share the money.

But if these people who touch porcelain really meet the official, they can only admit that they are unlucky! Once, some idiots met Li Hongzhang traveling incognito in Tianjin and couldn't get up on the ground. Finally, the officers and men came and said that since you don't want to get up, you should never get up! When those people saw something bad, they quickly got up from the ground, hugged Li Hongzhang's thigh and said, We're just kidding you. Is Li Hongzhang a casual joke? Bring these birds to justice!

Gold means a fortune teller.

Fortune telling is a common name among the people. The academic title is Zhouyi prediction, and the academic study of fortune telling is called Yi Xue, also called Shu Shu. The core of this theory is the branches of Yin-Yang and Five Elements and the Eight Diagrams Yijing, and the theoretical system is complex and profound. Fortune-telling in a narrow sense is a prediction of the date of birth, while fortune-telling in a broad sense includes reading numbers, palm reading, eight diagrams and six hexagrams, Taoism, geography, geomancy and so on. Ancient divination and divination belong to fortune telling. Fortune-telling, China's prediction has a long history, and its origin can be traced back to Fu, the highest city. Then Zhou Wenwang played gossip, and fortune-telling began to improve gradually. You can also refer to the Book of Changes. Shi Tian's descendants, fortune-telling experts, the space is in the geomantic omen, and the time is in the horoscope.

Blind man: For fortune telling, the blind man is the main force. People believe in blind people, because everyone thinks that it is amazing that blind people can judge good luck just by a birthday. But as long as you consider it carefully, you can still understand the inevitability behind some magic.

Rhetoric: the key to fortune telling. A fate (birth time and fate) depends on rhetoric. It can not only make a character come alive in the mouth of a fortune teller, but also resonate with the seeker.

Disaster elimination: the purpose of fortune telling is to seek good fortune and avoid evil. If a disaster is counted and cannot be removed from others, wouldn't it increase people's troubles? So, in the end, if there is a disaster, it must be solved, just like when you go to the hospital for examination and find that there is no cure for the disease. And disaster relief is the place to make money. Often it can't be solved in the street. One is that there are many people in the street. If you say a word, he will often spoil the good thing. Besides, people don't have much money to tell fortune on the street.

Comment is the storytelling on the street.

In order to win more people to listen to them, to talk for a longer time, and to earn two more porridge money, they often tell a joke of three to five years and a short story, which they embellish. Unofficial history, official, made it up, some didn't, just made it up. The purpose is to deceive the people, so that the financial resources will not be broken.

Skin, that is, selling wild medicine.

The gourd contains all kinds of Dan medicine, which claims to cure all diseases. For the poor who look down on the disease, this is a life-saving straw, and for the liar, this is a magic weapon to deceive people.

Color is magical.

Westerners call it magic. A pigeon flies out of the sleeve for a while, smoke comes out of the head for a while, taking things from a distance and spitting white lotus are all deceptive methods.

Hang, that is, a street performer.

Selling wild medicine while performing art, first breaking a big stone in the chest with a sledgehammer, then inserting a sword into your throat, or opening bricks with one hand, or collecting copper coins in an oil pan, and then showing off how powerful your qigong is, in addition, it is all thanks to the' Hercules Pill' and then selling medicine, which is all deceptive. ...

Later, these tricks were exposed one by one by a kind-hearted person named "Cloud Tourists" in Jinghua Times, and then compiled into a book named "River Lake Congtan". This "cloud tourist" is the famous storytelling artist Lian Kuoru. Over the years, the content of "A Talk on the Rivers and Lakes" has been repeatedly interpreted, forming traditional crosstalk such as "Swallow's Journey", which has been passed down to this day.
