The second day of the exam was a little more pleasant than the first day, and the sun hid in the clouds. It's a little cooler, but it's still stuffy. The temperature of more than 30 degrees is also a test of the candidate's physique. Li Hongyi calmly completed all the subjects. The school teacher explained that after the exam, he would go to the school in the afternoon to arrange the graduation ceremony. Many students threw their books and test papers directly into the sky after taking the exam, and they were finally liberated! However, Li Hongyi did not do this, but packed all his bags and took them home. He knew that his parents were at home and hoped that he would go back soon to give the good news.

In the classroom, everyone's face was full of smiles, no matter whether the test was good or not, this should be no pressure at noon during this time. The class leader is organizing a dinner party with the teacher tonight, and each student will have five yuan. Li Hongyi touched the only one yuan and five dimes in his pocket, and felt that his face couldn't hold it for a while, and he planned not to go, but he thought again, this may be the last time they met, and he was in a dilemma. Zhao Xuande, this kid, walked over and stopped his shoulder, "Hongyi, our high school friendship is iron, I gave this money, but there is a condition." Li Hongyi looked at Zhao Xuande's eyes, "What?" Zhao Xuande continued, "I'll tell you when I'm ready." Li Hongyi was directly full of black lines, but this is also a favor owed to him.

In the evening, the students at the party were all free to their heart's content, had a lot of fun, and drank a lot of wine. Li Hongyi also drank some wine, and kept the love letter he wrote to Zhang Lei two years ago in his pocket, and planned to give her the love letter tonight with the strength of the wine, if he can confess, even if it is not a pity. However, there are several boys in the class, some are handsome, some are talented, and some have good family conditions...... are all attentive one by one, which can make Li Hongyi depressed, hey! Forget it, if you don't have a chance, you won't have a chance. But he didn't notice that at the same time, in one corner of the room, another girl also looked at him affectionately.

The next morning, it is also the day when the boarding students leave the school. Li Hongyi packed up his bedding roll and put it on his bicycle with daily necessities. I plan to go to Wang Wenming to ask about choosing a school for the college entrance examination.

When I came to Yinqiao Street, the old face of the old place said, "Brother Wang, I will go home today after the college entrance examination, I don't know when I will be able to meet again after this time, this is for you." After speaking, I gave Wang Wenming the walkman I used to learn English in my three-year high school career, which I felt I could still use to learn English, "This can listen to the radio, and it is good to relieve boredom when I am lonely." After Wang Wenming took the walkman, he picked up the very quaint little bowl from the stall, and there were three old blackened copper coins in the small bowl, "My name is Xiao Liuyao, let's give your kid a hexagram." "Liuyao, put the three copper coins in his hands, clasp his hands tightly, think about the things he measured, let the measured information melt into the copper coins, shake his palms together and put them into the hexagram plate, and throw them six times to form a hexagram. Liuyao originated from Zhou Yi and is a commonly used divination and prediction method among the people.

Six times into a hexagram, this smooth operation, Li Hongyi who read it felt as if he had seen it in a book. "Kun is shocked and shaken, and the hexagram is repeated. Wang Wenming looked at Li Hongyi and said, "Boy, I don't know if this should be said." "Brother Wang, let's be born twice at a time, just say it if you have something to say, don't beat around the bush, I'm in a hurry." Wang Wenming continued, "If you can go, you can go back, and we will meet again soon." Go back and forth, call for revenge, the kid can be admitted to school, but I don't know if you want to. ”

As soon as Li Hongyi heard this, the stone in his heart was half lowered, and it would be good if he could be admitted to university. "I'll see you again in the near future, then I'll go to college and I can only come to you on vacation, Brother Wang. Wang Wenming didn't say much, "Go back quickly, if you want to come to me, I'll be in this old place." In fact, Li Hongyi plans to learn some of these magical divination techniques from Wang Wenming after the holiday, but he doesn't know if others teach him or not, so he should wait for the opportunity.

When he returned home, the first thing his parents asked was: How did they do in the exam? Li Hongyi thought about what Wang Wenming said that he could go to university, "If you do well in the exam, you can go to university." As soon as he heard this, his father shouted at the top of his voice, so that he was afraid that the neighbors would not hear, "Old woman, chop meat and make dumplings, my son is going to college!" The heartfelt joy could not be concealed. I drank some wine with the old man at home, as if I remembered that when I was 6 years old, my father took a very old book to read to himself, but many of them are traditional characters, so I was not interested in reading them, but I thought about it, it seems to be related to these mysterious metaphysics, "Dad, I remember that when I was a child, we had an old book, you showed it to me and let me see it, is that book still there?" "Which one......?" Think about it. Isn't it in the wooden box at the bottom of the bed, it was left by your grandfather, and I can't read a word, thinking that you were literate and left it to you, and you put it back when it wasn't hot at that time. As soon as Li Hongyi heard that he was interested, what his grandfather left should be an ancient book, so he put down his chopsticks and went to the bottom of the bed to rummage through the box.

Pull out a big red lacquered wooden box at the bottom of the bed, some of the lacquer on the top has fallen off, lift the lid of the box, a burst of camphor wood aroma rushed to the face, there were a lot of things in a mess, all of which seemed to be very simple and old, I don't know when my father stood behind him, still wearing the dark blue overalls, "The red cloth at the bottom is wrapped in it." This statement frightened Li Hongyi's spirit of being silent looking for books, "Dad, you scared me." He took out the book-sized book wrapped in the red cloth that my father said, and lifted the red cloth to show a very quaint old book with yellowed pages in front of him, and the edges of the book were already damaged. On the front of the book, the three brush words are sonorous and powerful, "Plum Blossom Yi", Li Hongyi, who has been admitted to university, can now understand this kind of ancient text, and I feel that this book is not ordinary, but what is Plum Blossom Yi? Is it how to grow plum blossoms? With these questions, I put the box under the bed again.

"When your grandfather was alive, I was only a few years old at that time, at that time, many people in the family came to your grandfather every day to ask about things, not to mention that life was much better than now, but suddenly your grandfather didn't know who offended and was arrested and imprisoned, at that time, those people were still holding your grandfather in the parade, turning the house into a mess, your grandfather was arrested a few days ago, he calculated that he had a big hurdle, so he hid this book behind a big stone on the wall of our toilet, and told me alone, if this hurdle was taken out in the past, I didn't even go to school, and I was able to live until now thanks to your grandma's family。 Speaking of this, Dad took the dry tobacco pouch from his waist, pressed the yellow tobacco leaves, lit it and smoked it. It was as if his thoughts had returned to the past, and the deep furrow-like wrinkles on his earth-colored face seemed deeper.

I took the book and our grandfather returned to the dinner table, "Then my grandfather was a fortune teller back then, so didn't my grandfather plan to pass on this book, so I will keep it well from then on, and I will study it well." "Well, let's study it well, as long as you don't miss the study, it can be regarded as a last wish of your grandfather, no matter what you do in the future, remember to go to the Xishan woodland every year to burn some paper money for your grandfather." "Got it, Dad, this pepper is so spicy. Li Hongyi didn't want his father to think about the unhappy things in the past, so he quickly changed the topic.

After eating, he couldn't wait to run back to his house, took out "Plum Blossom Yi" and opened it carefully, this book is a manuscript, the font is very beautiful, there are a lot of traditional characters, but Li Hongyi feels that this book is very kind, and he thinks that he must read this book, which may be a stepping stone to step into the magical door of easy learning. "A congenital plum blossom number, a day after tomorrow, a plum blossom number, a continuation of plum blossoms, easy to count...... Shao Kang Festival "is said to be written by Shao Yong, a scholar of Yi in the Song Dynasty, the plum blossom Yi number originated in Han Yi, is a book based on mathematics in Yi Xue, combined with the "elephant science" in Yi Xue, according to legend, Shao Yong used every hexagram must be in the middle, tried and tested. After looking at the introduction in front of me, I realized that this is a book for predicting divination, not a book for planting plum blossoms. Li Hongyi unconsciously became excited, great, what my grandfather passed on to me was what I wanted to learn. Is this just fate?

From today onwards, I must carry this book with me, study when I have time, and study it while I have nothing to do during the holidays, maybe in the future, like my grandfather, someone will come to the door to ask me to see things. This is also a way out for myself in the future. Although Li Hongyi's life has not changed because of the appearance of this book, he will be greeted with a more wonderful life, and the nobles who rewrote his life have taught him far more than this book. That's all for later, but this book laid the foundation and determination for him to go down this path.
