If you want to guess where the strange fish hides the ruler, you must figure out the psychology of the strange fish before death, if you want to figure out the human mind is relatively easy, because most of the human thoughts are similar, but the strange fish is not human, its thinking must be different from that of humans.
After a short period of silence, Mo Wen identified this strange fish as a loyal minister of the South China Sea, the reason why it made such a determination was because it carried out a mission alone, and whether it was ordered to come or take the initiative to ask for help, it could be determined that it was a loyal minister, if it was not a loyal minister, it would not take the initiative to ask for help, if it was not a loyal minister, the South China Sea would not have sent it alone.
In addition, the reason why it was judged that it came alone is because stealing is different from robbing, stealing must be secret, if the South China Sea sends a large group, then it is not stealing but robbing, the ruler wood is extremely important to the dragon clan, and the East China Sea will definitely try its best to protect, so robbing is absolutely unworkable.
Identified as the loyal minister of the South China Sea, you can speculate on its psychology and actions according to the psychology of the loyal minister, the loyal minister in order to complete the task, will go all out, even if he gives away his life, driven by this psychology, the strange fish will hide the ruler wood at the same time will leave clues, for the South China Sea to come to find in the future.
After a few months, the South China Sea did not come, which shows that the strange fish has not yet cultivated to the state of the soul, and cannot use the soul to go back to report the news, and the clues left can only be the clues that the South China Sea Dragon Clan can feel after coming here.
Thinking of this, Mo Wen suddenly thought that this strange fish did not have a Neidan, and its skull was intact, so it can be inferred that its Neidan was not taken away by the giant horseshoe crab, but spit it out on its own, and it was precisely because it spit out Neidan that it was unable to suppress the deteriorating injuries, resulting in a quick death.
And its intention to spit out Neidan is self-evident, in order to guide the South Sea Dragons who came to find it in the future, and guide them to find the ruler wood smoothly.
In other words, as long as you find the strange fish Neidan, you can find the shakuki.
Although this point has been deduced, it is still very difficult to actually implement it, because before the strange fish dies, in order to prevent the giant horseshoe crab and the East China Sea dragon clan from finding the ruler wood according to its inner dan breath, he will definitely try to reduce the external dispersion of the inner dan aura while spitting out the inner dan to guide the way, so that the East China Sea dragon clan cannot detect it and the South China Sea dragon clan can detect it.
If you want to do this, you must start from the five elements of the East China Sea Dragon Clan and the South China Sea Dragon Clan, the East China Sea Dragon Clan's five elements return to wood, and the South China Sea Dragon Clan's five elements return to fire, if you want the East China Sea Dragon Clan to be undetectable and the South China Sea can be perceived, the strange fish must find a kind of five elements thing as a cover, this five element thing cannot be wood, and it is impossible to fire.
After deducting these two, only water, earth, and metal remain.
The water is excluded first, because it clashes with the fire of the South Sea Dragon Clan, and if it is hidden in the water, the South Sea Dragon Clan will not be able to perceive it.
The soil is also excluded, because the invisible Muke soil, if it is hidden in the soil, the East China Sea Dragon Clan can keenly perceive its inner dan.
Most likely, there is only gold, and among the five elements, Jin Kemu, if it is hidden in a metal container, it can avoid the perception of the East China Sea Dragon Clan.
And among the five elements, the fire is golden, hidden in a metal container, and the fire dragon of the South China Sea can ignore the metal container, keenly perceive its inner dan, and find the ruler wood that is placed with the inner dan according to the guidance of the inner dan.
In addition, the metal container can also shield the breath emitted by the wooden ruler wood, so that the East China Sea Dragon Clan cannot perceive the breath of Neidan and the wood qi emitted by the ruler wood.
With this in mind, Mo Wen came to the final conclusion that the ruler wood was hidden in a metal vessel by the strange fish.
Although he came to a conclusion, Mo Wen's heart was not stable, because he had not dealt with the strange fish, and he did not know if it was completely enlightened, and if it was a dull fool, then all the previous inferences were in vain.
However, after thinking about it, Mo Wen was sure that his inference was correct, because the South China Sea Dragon Clan would definitely select smart and brave subordinates when they sent people to carry out important tasks, and it was impossible to send a fool out.
You know, if you can't steal, it will be a very shameful thing.
It was determined that the ruler wood was hidden in the metal utensils, and the scope of the search was greatly reduced, first of all, the field could be excluded, at this time, copper and iron were controlled by the imperial court, and in recent years, the army has been vigorously raised, and the metal must be more scarce, and no one will abandon the metal on the mountain at will.
The wild was excluded, and only the countryside remained, but the countryside was not right, because the strange fish did not have time to enter the countryside that day, and taking a step back, even if it won the time to enter the countryside, pushing the door into the house would alarm the householder, there are impermeable walls in the world, but there is no mouth that does not leak secrets, if it is seen, it will definitely be publicized.
Excluding the wilderness and the countryside, it seems that the inference has fallen into a dead knot.
But there is an exception to this dead knot, which is the abandoned houses in the villages, or the abandoned temples or Taoist temples in the wilderness.
The former possibility should also be ruled out, because it is impossible to leave iron tools in abandoned houses in the village, and the owner will not leave metal objects in the abandoned house when he moves, otherwise they will be stolen.
Even if the owner's family is extinct, there will be no metal utensils left in his house, and there are not a few scoundrels in the village who lift pots and steal chickens.
Therefore, there is only one last possibility left, and that is that Shakuki and Neidan were hidden by the strange fish in abandoned Taoist temples or metal vessels in temples in the wild.
As long as people can calm down and think quietly and carefully, they can avoid taking a lot of detours.
It only takes a moment or even a half to deny an idea that has not been implemented, but if you want to correct a mistake that has been implemented, it will not only cost the people and money, but also take a lot of time, but unfortunately the world is chaotic, always do more and think less, do not want to think ahead, always blindly try the road, resulting in frequent detours, a short life, most of the time is busy making up for the mistakes caused by impulsiveness and thoughtlessness.
After figuring out where the ruler might be hiding, Mo Wen opened his eyes.
It was not early or late, and at this moment, Lao Wu pushed the door with a wooden plate and entered, "Master, let's make do with some food." ” Mo Wen glanced at the food on the wooden plate, and found that he still had an appetite, so he made a gesture to the fifth child, and the fifth child understood and put the wooden plate on the table.
Mo Wen took the chopsticks handed over by Lao Wu, and ate with a bowl, in order to greet him and Lao Wu, the Zhao family has been eating dry food instead of gruel for the past few days.
"Master, is there a score" Seeing that Mo had a good appetite, the fifth man guessed that he already had a way to deal with it.
"It's hard to say."
Mo Wen waited until the corn in his mouth was completely swallowed before he answered, the ancient precept of eating and sleeping silently was mainly to prevent choking and save food, and as he grew older, he became less and less concerned about those stereotypes.
"It's hard to say what it means," Lao Wu picked up the kettle and poured water for Mo Wen.
"Go and call your father."
Mo Wen smiled and waved his hand at Lao Wu.
Lao Wu knew that Mo Wen was teasing him, but he didn't care, and turned around and went out to call the shopkeeper.
After a while, Shopkeeper Zhao came, Mo Wen raised his hand to invite him to take a seat, and glanced at Lao Wu again, Lao Wu would understand and pour water for Shopkeeper Zhao.
Don't ask to eat all the meals, as long as you are full, immediately put the chopsticks, so often leftovers, this kind of behavior that seems to outsiders to be very wasteful is actually out of health considerations, the food contains the essence of grains, and you can't live if you don't eat.
However, the food also contains turbidity from grains, and if you are reluctant to throw away the leftover food after you are full, you will force yourself to eat it, which will lead to an increase in turbidity in the body, and the lungs and intestines will be affected, and it will inevitably become a disease over time.
Shopkeeper Zhao didn't think that Mo Wen was wasting grain and rice, but through this action, he saw that Mo Wen had a casual extravagance, nobility comes from wealth, without rich backing, people worry about their livelihood all day long, have no time to study, no time to meditate, and they can't raise nobility, at most they can only raise a sour body.
Expensive and cute in wealth, long in edification, into the fragrance of books, if the last two are missing, even if the family wealth is not born.
Mo Wen naturally didn't know what Shopkeeper Zhao was thinking, and after rinsing his mouth, he asked Shopkeeper Zhao, "May I ask the good man, what Taoist temples are there within a hundred miles of this radius?"

"Adults want to ask someone to help" Shopkeeper Zhao wanted to say that he would ask someone to help, but suddenly felt that this sentence was suspicious of contempt and don't ask, so he changed it to help.
"No, it is enough to restrain the monster and the poor Dao, and there is another side reason for seeking the Taoist temple."
Don't ask, he took the pen and ink from the wooden table, "Good people don't worry, think about it carefully, and write them down one by one." ” Lao Wu had the eyesight, took away the wooden plate, and made room for the shopkeeper Zhao to write.
Shopkeeper Zhao held the brush in his hand, dipped it in ink and wrote, at first he wrote very quickly, and later he was slower, frowning from time to time and recalling, and after a quarter of an hour, he put down the pen and said, "As far as I know, there are only these eight Taoist temples within a radius of 100 miles. ” Mo Wen said, "The abandoned ones should also be written, as well as the land temple and the mountain temple, and don't leave it out." ” Hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhao picked up the pen again, wrote five or six more places, and shook his head after a long time, "It's really gone." ” Mo Wen took the piece of rice paper and found that there were a total of fourteen Taoist temples and mountain temples and land shrines, and the location, whether the incense was at its peak, and the approximate number of people were recorded.
"The good ones rest early, and we'll go out in the evening."
Mo Wen accepted the paper and said to the shopkeeper Zhao, who said yes and left his seat.
"Master, what are you going to do?"
asked the fifth in confusion.
"The thing that the strange fish stole from the East China Sea is called Shakuki, and it is a sacred relic of the dragon clan, and it is very likely that this thing is hidden in abandoned Taoist temples and temples in the mountains."
Mo Wen packed up and walked out.
Lao Wu lifted the filial piety stick, grabbed Mo Wen's long sword, and went out with him.
"Master, what is the shape of the ruler wood?"
asked the fifth child.
"I don't know."
Mo Wen shook his head and said, "Then how to find it" Lao Wu waved to his mother-in-law who was cleaning, once the marriage was settled, Zhao Yingying was the Wu family, and Lao Wu did not allow her to come out to greet the guests again.
"I have my own way."
Mo Wen raised his hand and said.
After going out, Mo Wen went straight north, and there was an abandoned Taoist temple in the mountains twenty miles to the north, where the possibility was the greatest.
Taoist temples and temples are auspicious places when they receive incense, but once they are abandoned, they become evil places, and no one dares to go there at will.
The Taoist temple in the mountain on the north side is not large, only two acres square, due to the abandonment for many years, most of the houses have collapsed, only the main hall is still half left.
The two of them pulled grass into the main hall, only to see that the statue was only left with mud tires, and it was impossible to identify which immortal was enshrined.
"Look, sir."
Lao Wu squatted down and picked up a piece of broken tiles and handed it to Mo Wen.
Mo Wen raised his hand to take it, only to see a large blackened blood stain on the tile.
Mo Wen threw away the broken tile, looked around the hall, and found that there were no metal utensils such as incense burners and bowls in the hall, only an inverted copper urn on the left side of the door, which should have been a purifier for the Taoist temple to hold water.
Mo Wen walked to the copper urn and straightened it, only to see that there was nothing inside, but there was a heavy fishy smell left in the copper urn, which was somewhat similar to the breath of the fish bones on the seaside, but it was not exactly the same.
"Master, what's wrong" Seeing Mo Wen, Lao Wu frowned, and walked over to look down at the copper urn.
"Chiki and Neidan were originally in this copper urn, but they have been taken away at this time":
