During the Republic of China period, there were many people, and strange people were also born. Just like liu congyun liu shenxian who is known as the first "demon" of the Republic of China, he is a very legendary person. So what is so special about Liu Congyun, how did he become Liu Shenxian?
Abandon the text from Xuan
Liu Congwen was born in 1883, his hometown was in Weiyuan County, Sichuan, although his family was not particularly wealthy, but he was also a well-off family at that time.
The children of this kind of family also have the opportunity to study, which makes Liu Congwen eat cultural meals from an early age.
After growing up, Liu Congwen was already in a chaotic world, and in order to support his family, he entered a private school as a private school.
At that time, Mr. Private School's status was not high, and the most prominent in the chaotic world were still those big warlords.
Liu Congwen initially thought that he should be a teacher for a lifetime, after all, he would not do anything else. But I didn't expect the appearance of a person to change the fate of Teacher Liu.
This person is not famous, just a fortune teller who is half a pound and eight or two, but in this small place in Weiyuan County, there are not many people who can read and write, and this fortune teller and Teacher Liu are also some topics, and they are familiar with it when they come and go.
After understanding, Teacher Liu found that people now believe in fate, because in the chaotic world, fate cannot be decided by themselves, so many people believe in such a thing as counting.
Teacher Liu summed up the fact that the errand of teaching by himself is becoming less and less popular in the current era, and it is better to change careers as soon as possible. So he began to study with this fortune teller, and soon Liu Congyun changed from a teacher to a master Liu.
In fact, Master Liu also learned some small tricks of pit deception, really saying that the five elements of gossip measure fate, even the real master does not have this ability.
However, Teacher Liu has several advantages, such as a flexible brain, seeing people talking about people and saying ghosts, saying the same as the real thing.
Another example is that he has a strong memory and basically never forgets it, which lays a good foundation for him to continuously upgrade on the road of "master".
After studying for a while, Master Liu Congyun Liu had already decided to become a teacher, and he chose an auspicious day of the zodiac to officially establish himself.
The year he chose to go out was the year of the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution, the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty, the collapse of the feudal dynasty for more than two thousand years, and the impact on people was enormous.
In this context, even those who are high-ranking officials and dignitaries cannot see the future direction clearly, and Liu Congwen, a "master", has become a "bright light" for them to guide the way.
At the beginning, Master Liu only told fortunes to the people, because he had already learned the ability to observe and observe colors, and he could use language to say things, so his fortune telling hit rate was still very high.
Soon Master Liu became famous in their county, and as his income increased, Master Liu recruited several more apprentices. From then on, every time he was telling fortunes, Master Liu had to let the disciples stand on both sides, and he sat in the middle, looking like he was calm and idle.
Such a master pomp and circumstance, let people see it and believe in three points. In fact, Master Liu has only been doing fortune telling for two or three years, and he has not yet touched the fundamentals of this line, and he can calculate actuarially accurately, all because he is good at looking at people.
In addition, Master Liu has already let people feel the bottom of the people in the ten miles and eight townships, and it is naturally more accurate to calculate their fate.
In this way, Master Liu Congwen's reputation grew bigger and bigger, from Weiyuan County to the whole of Sichuan, and At this time, Master Liu also had a new identity, that is, "Liu Shenxian".
"Contemporary Zhuge " Liu Congwen
If Liu Shenxian only told fortunes to the common people, he would not cause any harm, but as his reputation grew, his ambitions became more and more ambitious, and later he even became the warlord godfather of the entire Sichuan region.
Liu Congyun's fame grew, and he accepted tens of thousands of disciples throughout the Sichuan region, but Liu Congyun was not satisfied, because his ambitions had already swelled to a terrible point.
Soon, through the channels of some of his disciples, Liu Congyun took the "Liu Xiang Clique", one of the five major warlords in Sichuan.
At that time, Sichuan had more than forty warlords, large and small, thousands of small, and tens of thousands of large.
Among them, the five most powerful warlords are the Liu Xiang Group, the Liu Wenhui Group, the Yang Sen Group, the Deng Xihou Group, and the Wang Lingji Group.
Liu Congyun first took the Liu Xiang Group, but it was not easy to gain Liu Xiang's trust.
Fortunately, the time soon came, once Liu Xiang purchased a batch of ordnance from abroad, but this batch of ordnance had just arrived in China and was confiscated by the Kuomintang, which made Liu Xiang very distressed, so Liu Xiang sent his younger brother to ask Liu Congyun for advice.
After Liu Congyun listened, he asked Liu Xiang's birthday eight characters, and asked some questions that were not, and finally he told this little brother: "You tell Liu Xiang, don't think about this batch of arms, you will definitely not come back."
What is most important now is not this batch of arms, but to seize the time to prepare for war, because there will be a big war in the near future. ”
The younger brother told Liu Xiang about Liu Congyun's words one by one, and Liu Xiang was half suspicious after listening to it, but he still seized the time to prepare for the war with the mentality of preferring to believe that he had no trust.
As a result, it really did not come out of Liu Congyun's words, and several major warlords broke out in the next year to encircle and suppress Liu Xiang. Fortunately, Liu Xiang had already prepared for the battle in advance, so he calmly coped with this encirclement and suppression.
After this incident, Liu Xiang fully trusted Liu Shenxian's words, and even set up a special military division position, just like Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms period, the internal affairs and military asked Liu Shenxian for advice.
In order to make his "Liu Junshi" more belonging, he bought a mansion for Liu Congyun in Chongqing and allowed Liu Congyun to open a venue within his jurisdiction.
If it continues to develop, it may even form a relationship between medieval European states and religions.
In the following years, there were chaotic battles between large and small warlords in Sichuan Province, and more than 40 warlords gradually merged, leaving only Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui, two major warlords.
Originally, the two were also evenly matched, but because Liu Xiang's side had the support of Liu Congyun and Liu Shenxian, all the small forces in Sichuan threw themselves into Liu Xiang's side, and Liu Wenhui had no choice but to seek peace.
For Liu Wenhui, Liu Xiang did not kill them all, after all, the two still have certain relatives and blood relations. After the last battle, the power of Sichuan was basically controlled by Liu Xiang, and Liu Xiang was behind Liu Congyun.
At this time, Liu Congyun was equivalent to the godfather of the largest power in Sichuan, and most of the officers at or above the division level in the army became Liu Congyun's apprentices, and as long as Liu Congyun went to the army to "inspect", the whole army had to bow down and pay homage to him.
A private school gentleman, a jianghu warlock, has become the absolute controller of Sichuan step by step, which has to be said to be a big joke.
However, Liu Congyun's life did not go smoothly, and soon he ushered in the trough of life.
The chaotic world is empty
A jianghu warlock, with his three-inch tongue and the ability to observe the color, became the actual controller behind the major warlords in Sichuan. How did such a powerful figure continue to decay?
Liu Congyun Liu Shenxian was happy and happy in Sichuan, and after gaining power, he even used the power in his hands to do nothing wrong.
However, his glory did not last long, and in 1934, Liu Congyun ushered in the most powerful enemy of his life, the Red Army with a tenacious will.
At that time, the Red Army was gradually developing and growing in the Sichuan region, and Liu Congyun was very angry in his eyes, and he decided to gather the Six Roads Army to encircle and suppress the Red Army, and he himself served as the "Chairman of the Sichuan Bandit Suppression Military Committee" for this operation, a position that was to be at the same level as old Jiang.
Before the official start of the war, Liu Congyun also pretended to calculate a good time, determined the good time and auspicious time, and said that he would definitely win a big victory.
However, Liu Congyun was only a fortune teller after all, without any war experience, and the reason why he was able to succeed repeatedly in the past was because he clearly saw what the warlords in Sichuan thought, which made him become the king of sichuan underground because of the situation.
However, now in the face of the Red Army, he did not have the slightest understanding, coupled with indiscriminate command, resulting in heavy losses to the major warlords under Liu Congyun.
After this great battle, those who were fascinated by Liu Congyun finally began to wake up, and coupled with Yan Xiaohu, who had always believed that Liu Congyun was a demon, became the commander of the Chengdu garrison, Liu Congyun's good life finally came to an end.
Liu Congyun smelled the killing intent of himself in the situation in Sichuan, so he rolled up his own covers, fled Sichuan with a few of his disciples and came to Shanghai, claiming to be Yunyou.
Speaking of Liu Congyun, he does have a good eloquence, and after coming to Shanghai, he is still mixed up like a fish.
Although it is not so powerful, it is still active in the upper class. Initially, after being introduced by his disciples, he became acquainted with Du Yuesheng, a big gangster in Shanghai, and with the help of Du Yuesheng, he took root in Shanghai.
Liu Congyun picked up his fortune-telling business and opened a xiangguan called "Xiangtian Corporal".
However, Liu Congyun still only gave fortune telling to dignitaries and dignitaries, because he did not look at the money of ordinary people at all.
Liu Congyun made a rule, one life per phase, one or two gold. This price can definitely scare off most people.
Although Liu Congyun's fortune telling is expensive, the big guys don't care, what they want to know is their fate.
Under the support of many big men, Liu Congyun seems to have made a comeback and become one of the top stars in Shanghai. Soon, however, the Kuomintang authorities collapsed, and Liu Congyun had to pack up his bags again and flee to Hong Kong.
At this time, Liu Congyun had lost his former glory, and as he grew older, his homesickness became more and more serious, so in 1953, Liu Congyun returned to Chengdu in anonymity.
But at this time, China was already a new China, and Liu Congyun, a god who had done all kinds of bad things, had no place to stand, and soon he was arrested by government agencies and sentenced to death for counter-revolutionary crimes.
However, unfortunately, this Liu Congyun did not wait for the execution, and he fell ill and died while on medical parole.
Looking at Liu Congyun's experience, it can be found that the chaotic world can indeed lose people's minds, and such a charlatan can actually stand on the heads of major warlords and drink five or six, and they are convinced.
In addition to eating the loss of schooling less, people's confused psychology in the chaotic world must also account for a large part of the reason.
