I remember not long ago, I read a sociologist's book about a social research company in the United States that investigated the lives of 20 winners who had won the lottery in the United States. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info thought that these lucky people, with a generous bonus, should live a happy life without worrying about food and clothing, but a survey found that nearly eighty percent of people, only after a period of drunken days, they encountered all kinds of accidents, there are victims, there are car accidents, there are investment failures, there are fires, and there are incurable diseases, even if there are those who have escaped the catastrophe of life, they will soon lose the bonus and return to the original state of life. But the huge contrast between the front and back made these people collapse.

Only a small number of people, some donate part of the prize money to welfare institutions or private schools, and some divide the prize money into many parts to share with family and friends, and this kind of people will have a good death. The survey was a sensation in the United States because it touched on the core values of the Western gold standard. But in our opinion, this result could not be more normal, "Woe is where blessing depends, and blessing is where misfortune lurks." Who knows the extreme: it is not right. It is strange to be reinstated, and good is to be a demon. The mystery of people is long-lasting. Thousands of years ago, Lao Tzu summed up the dialectical thought of blessing and evil.

But it's all based on agnosticism, because we can't predict who Lady Luck will favor or whether Lady Luck herself is a devil with makeup. Therefore, naturally, "the mystery of man is long-lasting." "But what if it all became controllable?

Suppose that Lao Zhang really has a way to predict the winning number, then in essence he stole the jackpot that should belong to someone else, but at the same time inherited the result of the blessing and misfortune that may occur later, ordinary people may not realize anything, but Lao Zhang is not, he can predict the result, and he must know the outcome behind the result. Pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages and returning the fate that has deviated from the track to normal must be the primary factor he considers.

Then he has a direct motive for accepting the evil magic of renewing his life, but in terms of Lao Zhang's life experience, this huge and orderly plan is definitely not something he can devise. But thinking about it from this aspect, there are reasonable answers to many incomprehensible things, such as, why Lao Zhang has always kept a low profile, why he never won the grand prize, and why did he always run into some life-threatening accidents?

Seeing that I had been bowing my head and contemplating and no longer speaking, Xiao Lei stood up, pointed to the notebook in my hand and asked, "Uncle Chang, have you found anything about these numbers?"

I smiled at him and handed over the notebook along with the books on the table. "Xiao Lei, I thought that there would be Lao Zhang's winning number in these numbers, but after checking carefully, there was no. But think about it, if Lao Zhang cracks the winning numbers from these numbers, the seven numbers must be remembered in his heart, and there is no need to write them out. I think the code to unlock these numbers is in "Zhou Yi", and Lao Zhang had been studying it before the accident. Although I have some research on "Zhou Yi", I am not proficient, I'm afraid you have to find an expert to take a look. ”

In fact, I said that, but I knew in my heart that there were people in the capital who should be able to read and understand this number, Jia Jiming of the Jia family in the five surnames of Wuzhu was such a master, but I couldn't in my life, and I didn't want to have anything to do with him, of course, there might be a breakthrough in finding the Zhao family, but I don't know if the Cao team has this understanding.

I was thinking about how to dial Team Cao, and he came forward to find the Zhao family to unlock the secret of these numbers, but Team Cao's phone rang suddenly, Team Cao pinched the cigarette in his hand, walked to the middle of the courtyard, and said brotherly. In a moment he beckoned to me, a satisfied expression. When I walked up to him, he had already hung up the phone, fiddling with his brick-like mobile phone in his hand, and asked me with a smile: "Lao Chang, which restaurant do you say is the most high-end restaurant in Beijing now?"

"Yo, this doesn't look like your style, what's the matter, who are you going to invite to dinner to prepare such a fee?" I also replied with a smile, the sunlight in the yard shone down through the branches and leaves of the big locust tree, making people warm, and the gloomy atmosphere in the old Zhang Dong's house was swept away. The cicadas in the trees were not as restless as they used to be, at least much more pleasant than the noise of the radio.

"Don't care who you invite, tell me which one is good first, isn't there often some big money to eliminate disasters and avoid disasters, please have a good place to rub it?" Team Cao still looked like he was giggling, which made me suddenly have a sense of foreboding.

"Of course, the most famous is three knives and one axe, Hong Kong Food City, Da Sanyuan, Pearl Seafood, these are the three knives, the price is the blackest. But what is more convenient for us is the Shanpu restaurant in Jishuitan, which is the axe. Close to the lake, next to the hill is Guo Shoujing Ancestral Hall, winding paths are secluded, the lake and mountains are beautiful, the decoration is also high-grade, the most suitable for dinner. I replied in his accord.

"Cheng, that sounds good, it's going to be a hill pot this Sunday. ”

"The price of that place is more hateful than the "three knives", who are you inviting to spend so much money?"

"Who do I invite? It's always the case that you invite me, Xiao Lei to accompany you. ”

"Why?"

"Hey, I just got an important thing done for you, the captain of the Shijiazhuang Detective Brigade came forward and asked Wu San to have tea with us tomorrow afternoon, without him, where can we find that Wu San? You said that your curiosity is not worth the money for a meal?"

We were arguing in the yard, but Xiao Lei in the house told us to hurry in.

When Team Cao and I entered the door, we saw Xiao Lei squatting on the ground by the wall, digging things out of a garbage can. The garbage can is estimated to have not been poured for a week, and the leftovers in it have already rotted and deteriorated, so that Xiao Lei planed it like this, and the pungent smell came to our faces, and we were so smoked that our tears were about to come down, and I regretted the food we had just talked about for a long time.

"Xiao Lei, what are you looking for?" asked Team Cao covering his nose.

"Team Cao, don't block Liang'er, there are two audio tapes in this trash can. Xiao Lei said, while digging out a plastic box that could no longer be seen in any color from the innermost part of the trash can, and the long core in the plastic box was pulled outside, but it looked like it had gone overboard and was completely twisted together. And in front of Xiao Lei, there is a completely deformed, black thing that has been burned, which is probably another audio tape that Xiao Lei said.

"Team Cao, these two tapes were torn out of the belt core, and they were burned with fire, one plate was completely wasted, and the other plate was probably burned in a hurry, and it was lit and thrown directly into the trash, and it was extinguished before it was burned, and there were still some left. Xiao Lei said, carefully took out a ball of cores, and found a piece of paper to wrap it.

"It is estimated to be Lao Zhang's thing, I said that I just saw an old-fashioned brick in the pile of radios (the common name of the old-fashioned single-card recorder), opened it and looked at it, it was empty, and the dare was destroyed by the corpse, Xiaolei, tomorrow morning we are going to Shijiazhuang, will meet that Wu San, you work hard, go back to the bureau, send everything to the technical department, and see what you find. As soon as Team Cao's words fell, Xiao Lei had already stood up, nodded to us, held the ball of newspapers, and hurried out of the house.

Team Cao and I came out of Courtyard No. 89 and walked in a secluded and quiet alley, each with our own thoughts. Team Cao asked me as he walked: "Lao Chang, do you really think that this Teacher Zhang received the information from those radios and decoded the winning numbers of the lottery after cracking them? I don't think it's possible, who did you say sent that radio signal? Don't tell me about ghosts, gods, how can they have the time to predict lottery numbers? They don't even know what a lottery is. ”

I smiled at Team Cao, but I didn't want to bother with this question, and said to him: "Old Cao, a friend brought me two catties of fine rock tea from Wuyi Mountain in Fujian Province a while ago.

Team Cao stopped, looked at me vigilantly, and muttered, "Lao Chang, if you ask me to choose between the mountain kettle and rock tea, I still choose to rub it for a good meal." ”

"It's not a multiple-choice question, it's a multiple-choice question, I'll invite you to the rice of the mountain cama, and you can also take the rock tea and drink it. Team Cao, Lao Zhang cracked those radio signals, using "Zhou Yi", he only has these two types of books in his house, it can't be wrong, those recorded numbers should be solved with Zhou Yi's gossip. There is a master of Zhou Yi that you recognize, but you are willing to go to him. "I ordered Team Cao.

"Lao Chang, do you mean that Zhao Jiuming of the Zhao family? I don't understand, you two families, sometimes they are intimate, fighting side by side, sometimes they are like passers-by, they don't get along with each other, what age are you, you are still the same as thousands of years ago, are you tired?"

"Who says it's not, but the family is getting older, like people, they also have their own temperament, and it is difficult to change, so they can only respect each other and adapt. If it's just the Chang family and the Zhao family, that's it, the Fang family can't find it now, but the people from the Liu family and the Jia family are here, if I go to find it, they will definitely think about it more, this relationship is not easy to handle. ”

Team Cao nodded at me with some understanding, and said in a somewhat deep tone: "Lao Chang, no matter what, I still only choose Shancao, most people don't have a little immunity under the temptation of money, although you and Xiao Lei said today, I don't believe it very much, but if it's right, it means that there will be a second Lao Zhang, a third Lao Zhang appears, I believe that there is more than one genius in the world, Lao Zhang, but what is the result?" Not to mention the chaos and destruction caused by human greed, you think, many things give people hope, because of its unpredictability, through continuous dedication, there is a sense of achievement. But everything has become transparent, it has become an unchanging fate, and who else will work hard to fight for it? Won't this life be boring?"

Team Cao patted me on the shoulder as he spoke, "I think that some things make it a secret forever, but it is the best choice, I won't go to Zhao Jiuming, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better, and there will be so many temptations." So, I'm going to go with the Yamaguma restaurant. ”

The moment Team Cao spoke, I suddenly realized that in fact, the real wise men are those who can resist temptation.

(If you are confused, the sea of happiness becomes a sea of suffering, like water condenses into ice; when you are enlightened, the sea of suffering is a state of happiness, like ice as water.) It can be seen that there is no difference between bitterness and happiness, and the confusion is not two hearts, but only in a blink of an eye. --"Caigen Tan")
