Chapter Ninety-Eight: The hexagram has its own rich and noble appearance
Leng Pengcheng's memories go back to when he was the second-in-command of the Gaohan Palace Society in Jiangdu County.
On that day, the secretary, who was already familiar with Leng Pengcheng as a brother, said when chatting with Leng Pengcheng:
"In the mountains to the south of us, there is an old man who is particularly good at fortune-telling, if you are okay, let's go and have a trip, let him calculate a hexagram for you, it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, just go to observe the people's feelings, if it is good, amuse you, if it is not good..."
The secretary paused, smiled and began to flatter blindly: "Your life, it is impossible not to be good, look at your full heavenly court, round earth, square face, straight nose and wide mouth, you will definitely be able to rise to the highest place in the future." β
When Leng Pengcheng heard this, he was really flattered: "I think you are like a fortune teller." β
As soon as the secretary saw that there was a door, he immediately went to prepare the car, and then ran away with Leng Pengcheng.
It was an hour before they reached the door of the old fortune teller's house.
Leng Pengcheng and his secretary got off the army-green 212 jeep from a distance, and saw a plainly dressed woman with short hair in her forties sitting under a big jujube tree, looking at them and asking:
"Are you here to tell fortunes?"
"Exactly," the secretary hurriedly stepped forward.
"I can't count it today, my old fairy is sick," said the woman, holding the soles of her shoes.
"Sick?" the secretary immediately looked depressed when he heard this.
"Yes, I'm really sick, go back quickly," the woman continued.
The secretary looked at Leng Pengcheng helplessly, and after Leng Pengcheng smiled and waved his hand generously, he went around to the right side of the jeep, really planning to get in the car and prepare to go back.
But he was about to pull the car door, when another gray-haired old lady came out of the room, and she trembled and strode over with a wooden cane, and said:
"Come in, the old man said, "It is a man of great wealth and nobility who has come to-day, and it is to bring calamity to the detriment of the whole family by letting the noble man run the wrong way. β
When Leng Pengcheng heard this, he immediately became happy again, he turned around and walked to the old lady, supported the old man with both hands, and said with a smile: "Auntie, do you think I look like a nobleman?"
The old lady looked at Leng Pengcheng, who had entered middle age, and saw that he was not only simple but also a little naΓ―ve.
Then look at the secretary next to Leng Pengcheng, who is a little child with a big face and a small head, and the old lady shook her head at them.
She really didn't know which one the old man was talking about, maybe both, so the old lady felt that she couldn't mess with the noble face.
"Please come and sit in the house " The old lady was also dexterous, in order not to offend the nobles, she simply threw away her crutches, pulled one in one hand, and dragged Leng Pengcheng and the secretary in.
These are three dilapidated mud-walled houses facing north and south, the east gable is a little inclined to the east, and the west gable is also a little sloping to the west, and it seems that it will definitely not be able to withstand a gust of secondary wind.
In the hall of the old house, it was dark at this time, and there was some musty smell, if you didn't go out and throw a little light in, you would basically be out of sight.
At this time, after a violent cough came from the east wing, another old and deep voice came: "Please come to the east room!"
This time, Leng Pengcheng didn't wait for the secretary to stretch out his hand, he lifted the door curtain, raised his legs and went to the east house first.
This east room is a little stronger than the one in the hall, and there are newspapers on all four walls.
It's probably a long time, and these newspapers, which I don't know which dynasty or generation, are already dirty and black.
However, it is much stronger and cleaner than the black muddy wall.
"Old man, how old are you this year?" Leng Pengcheng went directly to the kang as he had gone to the countryside before, and then sat cross-legged.
The old man, who seemed to be skinny and skinny, had only a few sparse white and half-yellow hairs left on his head, and was wearing an old cotton jacket that was shiny and shiny, and he couldn't distinguish the color, and leaned on several old bedding that was also indistinguishable.
"Dare to ask the two of you, where did you come from," the old man raised his head and swept Leng Pengcheng and the secretary with his blazing little thief eyes with a few points of.
"We're from the Gaohan Palace," Leng Pengcheng replied brightly.
"Oh, our Gaohan Palace, when will we have a car?" the old man asked with some doubts on his face, he was probably afraid that Leng Pengcheng would panic.
"Uncle, this car is borrowed from the county," the secretary hurriedly replied.
The old man bowed his head and snorted, and his gaze immediately dimmed.
The secretary immediately felt the change in the old man's expression, and was so annoyed that he was about to speak, but this time Leng Pengcheng took the lead.
"Old man, how is life at home?"
"Hey, what can I do, there are only two laborers in the family, and I have to suffer all year round, and if I can't get back to the team, then the life will be like this," said the old man listlessly.
"How many people are there in the family?" Leng Pengcheng asked again.
"There are four people in the family, we are two old with a daughter-in-law and a granddaughter, I am not in good health, I can't get off the kang for three days, and the old woman can't do anything, thanks to the daughter-in-law's filial piety, widowhood has not left for more than ten years, and I am willing to take care of the old and the young, which is also a blessing in misfortune. β
The old man looked out the door, and then said:
"But my daughter-in-law, it's a little more powerful, the family is afraid of her, when she is usually fine, she sits at the door, and even the old relatives who come to the door are not allowed to come in, let alone come to tell fortunes and ask for signs.
But this is also to blame me, I tell fortunes to others, never mention money, if you feel spiritual, the body is convenient, just put a few, if it's not convenient, say thank you, you can also raise your legs and go,
Later, the daughter-in-law was unwilling, and whoever came to tell the fortune must give money first, otherwise he would not even be allowed to enter the door. β
The days of the countrymen in the mountains are really bitter, Leng Pengcheng felt sour in his heart, and was busy relieved: "Don't worry, old man, our days will definitely get better and better." β
The secretary saw that Leng Pengcheng had chatted with the old man, and he was in a hurry, so he hurriedly handed five yuan to the old man:
"Uncle, this is five yuan, if you accept it, let's give us Director Leng a hexagram. β
The old man took the banknote, his eyes immediately regained his strength, and he hurriedly said: "Okay, you see that we are only chatting, and we have forgotten the purpose of the guests here, Director Leng, right?
"Yes, that's right," the secretary was a little impatient.
"What kind of director are you?"
"Director of the Gonggong," the secretary was already so anxious that he patted his legs.
When Leng Pengcheng saw it, he hurriedly waved his hand to him, asking him to calm down for a while.
"Hehe, don't say it, I have figured out who this noble man is, he is the former county Yaleng!" This time the old man patted his thigh happily.
"Don't mention the past, don't mention the past," it seems that he has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the corners of Leng Pengcheng's mouth raised a smug smile, and he said in a voice.
The old man first checked Leng Pengcheng's past, and he was also a little proud, he was more energetic at the moment, and he also sat cross-legged, straightened his waist and said:
As the saying goes, a gentleman asks about misfortune and does not ask about happiness, and ordinary people ask about wealth but not about longevity, Lord Leng, I will directly calculate your blessings and longevity. β
"I am born in **year*month**, belonging to horses," Leng Pengcheng saw that the old man suddenly became serious, and he also straightened up and reported his birthday.
"What time?" asked the old man.
"Ah, I don't know about this, my parents are dead, and there is no place to ask. β
The old man was stunned for a moment, thinking, why can't you remember your birth date when you are such a big head, but after thinking about it again, people are big heads, and they may not believe these at all.
"That's it, Lord Leng, you can just say a word to me, there is no birthday, I can only calculate it for you from the word. β
"Phase, that's the word for phase," Leng Pengcheng blurted out.
After reporting the word 'phase', Leng Pengcheng saw the old man's right thumb and began to connect the index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little thumb fingers, and pinched it quickly.
The old man pinched and calculated, and from time to time put his head close to Leng Pengcheng's face, as if he was smelling, as if he was listening, and even more like looking.
After about five or six minutes, the old man finally spoke: "You have two children at home, a boy and a girl, the elder brother and the younger sister. β
"Yes, yes," Leng Pengcheng nodded in surprise.
"Well, this girl in your family is the real noble, she is a phoenix species, there will be some ups and downs and mental torment in the future, and after experiencing the fire nirvana, you can reap the greatest happiness. β
"Mmmm, you continue," Leng Pengcheng nodded repeatedly.
The old man still pinched his fingers and continued to tell:
"Your daughter-in-law and you have a normal relationship, there are no stumbles between you, but there is nothing to talk to each other, both of you seem to be dealing with each other, there is not much common language, your married life is very peaceful, calm like a pool of stagnant water. β
"You can even figure this out!" Leng Pengcheng was even more surprised this time, and he hurriedly asked in surprise.
"These are just episodes, I'll give you a calculation," the old man raised his eyes and whispered as he calculated:
"Ninety-two, ninety-two, see the dragon in the field, see the lord, Junde also, the dragon virtue and the middle of the person also, good omen!
Further down, the hexagram shape is opposite up and down, the exchange between the upper six and the ninety-five is completed, and the six-five corresponds to the ninety-two, which is to say that the strong and strong are solid and glorious, and the day is new and virtuous, just up and up the sage, not the family eats auspicious, and the virtuous is also,
Good hexagram! Lord Leng, look at your hexagram, there is no risk in this life, the career is gradually promoted, the middle-aged is ambitious, the old is beautiful, this life is full of friends, and the righteous friends support,
But Lord Leng, you have been a night list Beidou for a while, the light is hazy in the dark, you can't see it, the stars don't fall, you have to suffer some small setbacks!"
"Uncle, you are not bad, but Director Leng's setback has come to an end, and it is almost over," the secretary interjected anxiously.
When the old man heard this, he didn't make a sound, but he lowered his head and closed his eyes vigorously, and began to pinch his five fingers again, and after a few minutes of recalculation, he suddenly raised his eyelids and said:
"Oh!oh! I finally figured it out, it turns out that Lord Leng's fate is more and more prosperous in the future, and the more prosperous it is, the more unclear it is, whoever can block my hexagram, the first is that the fate is hard, and the second is that the future will be able to rank nine or five, and the fate will be brilliant and shining, which is not something that I can predict and deduce from the ordinary flesh mortal fetus!"
Listening to the old man's nonsense, Leng Pengcheng was happy in his heart.
Haha, brilliant and shining!
Aren't these predicted futures exactly the ideals and dreams of the future!
Originally, Leng Peng Chengbei was suspicious of these things, but he had already heard of this magical old man, and everyone said that his hexagram was particularly accurate.
Leng Pengcheng was curious, in fact, it had been a long time, and when he heard what the old man said today, it seemed that everything was well-founded, and it was an excellent omen, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart.
So Leng Pengcheng smiled heartily:
"Old Hetou, I have heard of your name for a long time, I am passing by here today, by the way, I came to see you, fortune telling, it's just a joke, these feudal superstitious things, you should also throw them away, when it is shabby, it is probably your old man's house is missing!"
As he spoke, Leng Pengcheng looked up and laughed again, he took out a ten-yuan ticket from his pocket, stuffed it into the old man's hand, and said again:
"In the future, you can't promote these things anymore, beware of the above, really catch you a model, and send you to labor education!"
Old man He looked at Leng Pengcheng's back as he walked out of the house, and was dumbfounded all of a sudden:
What kind of temper is this man?
It's all yin and yang?
The secretary walked up to Old Man He again, and whispered in his ear: "You must keep it secret, and you are not allowed to mention the matter of Director Leng's fortune telling to anyone, otherwise you will really be arrested!"
Old man He is not confused about this, he really knows how powerful it is, no matter who asks in the future, he will keep his mouth shut, shake his head and shake his hand without saying a word.
Leng Pengcheng had a serious expression, and after formally thanking Old Man He, he was about to leave, and as soon as he walked to the middle of the courtyard, he saw a girl wearing green army pants and a goose yellow shirt coming in from outside the door.
He Lingzhi appeared...
