Chapter 195: The Down-and-Out Beggar
"What can you do with a turtle shell?"
In the base space of the phantom, follow the little girl to Yu Fan in the house. After listening to the phantom's explanation, he looked at the little girl in the house who was holding the little turtle in her hand and looked left and right, and asked with great joy, and asked suspiciously.
"Hee-hee, I don't know. ”
Hearing this, the phantom replied playfully.
"Okay, let's wait a minute. ”
Seeing the phantom's rare direct saying that he didn't know, Yu Fan said a little surprised.
"Little tortoise, the book says that as long as you can use your abdominal armor as the core, and your tortoise shell as the complete weapon, and draw the essence of heaven and earth into the body, you can call the weapon and cast the spirit.
However, although I succeeded in casting a spirit for you, I didn't have any copper coins, and if I couldn't find three copper coins, I wouldn't be able to learn Hetu and Luoshu.
If I can't learn Hetu and Luoshu, I can only stay at the introductory stage of human arithmetic, and I will never be able to learn the method of calculating heaven and earth.
Woo~ What can I do?"
Rummaging the little turtle in her palm, the little girl muttered to herself with a sad face.
"Hee-hee, I know why she used a tortoise shell to cast a spirit. ”
Not long after the little girl finished speaking, Yu Fan's ears suddenly heard the sound of phantom laughter.
"Oh? ”
After listening to the little girl's self-talk, Yu Fan also had some speculations in his heart, and he said thoughtfully.
"Hehe, the tortoise was revered as one of the four spirits by the Xia people in the tribal era thousands of years ago.
During the tribal period, the Xia people believed that the turtle had spirituality. At the same time, on the shell of the turtle, because of the special texture:
There are three squares in the center of the turtle shell and turtle pattern, which correspond to the three talents of heaven, earth and man in Yixue divination, and there are 24 squares next to the turtle shell, which correspond to the 24 mountains in divination.
There are 10 squares on the top of the turtle shell, which correspond to the 10 heavenly stems in Yixue divination, and 12 squares at the bottom of the turtle shell, corresponding to the 12 earthly branches in divination.
During the tribal period, human priests used the combination of turtle shells and copper coins to perform divination according to the correspondence between these lines on the turtle shell.
Therefore, I speculate that this little girl is also trying to use the method of turtle shells and copper coins to practice the oldest practice of divination and prophecy. The phantom replied playfully.
"I didn't expect that there are so many mysteries in a small Wang Bahu'er, it's really amazing. ”
After listening to the phantom's explanation, Yu Fan looked at the little turtle in the little girl's hand, revealing a surprised gaze.
"Hehe, young master, what do you want to do?"
Hearing this, the phantom asked.
"How to do it... Well, hehe, of course, it's what it likes. ”
After being stunned for a moment, and after understanding the meaning of the phantom's question, Yu Fan's eyes rolled and showed a sly smile.
With that, Yu Fan asked the phantom to transfer him from the two-room house to the outside.
With his hand grabbing the ground, a small ball of yellow-white dust appeared in Yu Fan's hand. He used his star power to control the small ball in his hand like powder, rubbing it unevenly back and forth on his face, clothes, and shoes.
After doing this, he used his star power to crumple the clothes on his body. In the end, he still didn't seem to be satisfied, so he used his star power to simply punch a few holes in his pants.
After doing this, Yu Fan turned the phantom into a mirror. Looking at himself in the mirror, his unkempt hair and tattered clothes like a beggar, a thick conspiratorial smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Oops~"
Walking outside the dilapidated wooden door of the little girl's house, Yu Fan leaned forward and fell on the dilapidated wooden door.
"Bang!", the wooden door almost fell apart.
"Are you alright?"
Startled by the sudden noise outside the wooden door, the little girl jumped off the wooden bed, ran two steps to open the dilapidated wooden door, and looked out of the door.
When she saw a man who was clearly a beggar, lying outside her door, she covered her mouth and exclaimed.
"Water... Water... I'm going to... Drink... Water ......"
Yu Fan, who was worried that the little girl would see the flaws, temporarily changed her mind the moment the little girl opened the wooden door. used the ability to shrink bones and deform, and made some changes to his face and figure, making him look more like a middle-aged uncle in his thirties and forties.
"Water, uncle, drink it. ”
Hearing Yu Fan's hoarse voice saying that she wanted to drink water, the little girl hurriedly ran back to the house, poured a cup of cold white water and gave it to Yu Fan to drink.
"Ahem, cough, cough~
Thank you, little doll... Goo~"
drank a few big mouthfuls of water, seemed to choke Yu Fan, and thanked the little girl with difficulty.
But before he finished speaking, an empty hunger sound came from his stomach.
"Hey~ Uncle, you must be hungry, you wait here for a while, I'll get you something to eat." ”
Amused by Yu Fan's sudden belly "grunt", the little girl laughed, turned around and ran back to the house again.
Not long after, the little girl returned with a white porcelain bowl. In the porcelain bowl, there is a white steamed bun and a dried salted radish.
"Come, uncle, give. ”
Handing the porcelain bowl to Yu Fan's dirty hand, the little girl's smiling eyes bent into two crescents.
“… Not... Woo......"
Seeing the little girl take out a steamed bun and a dark gray unknown object, Yu Fan was dumbfounded. He has been pampered since he was a child, how has he ever seen this posture?
But in line with the principle of completing the task, he finally ate the steamed bun with a sad face and ate the pickles.
"Uncle eat slowly, don't choke, if you don't eat enough, I'll get it for you." ”
Seeing Yu Fan eating steamed buns, he also made a "woo" sound. The little girl thought that Yu Fan hadn't eaten for a long time, and she was so excited to cry when she saw the steamed buns and pickles.
"Enough... That's enough. ”
Feeling the sour and salty feeling coming from his mouth, Yu Fan resisted the urge to vomit and reluctantly said.
"Huh?!
Yan'er, what's going on?"
While Yu Fan was talking to the little girl, a surprised female voice suddenly came from a distance.
Following the direction from which the voice came, Yu Fan turned his head to look. It was discovered that the person who came was none other than the little girl's mother.
"Mom, why did you come back so early today?"
Hearing her mother's voice, the little girl threw Yu Fan down and ran towards her mother.
"I forgot to take the scale. Yan'er, who is this?"
After answering, the little girl's mother looked at Yu Fan, who was dressed as a beggar and obviously had more air in and less breath, and asked in a low voice vigilantly.
"I don't know who this uncle is, I was playing in the house just now and I heard someone banging on the door outside the door.
When I opened the door, I saw this uncle lying on the ground, saying that he wanted to drink water, and I poured him a glass of water. I brought him a steamed bun and pickles. ”
Seeing that her mother suddenly looked nervous, the little girl replied innocently.
"Yan'er, my mother said no before. Mom is not at home, you can't go out easily on your own, you can't open the door to strangers. ”
After listening to the little girl's narration, the little girl's mother pulled the little girl aside and reprimanded her in a low voice.
"Mom, I know it's wrong......"
Seeing that her mother was angry, the more sensible little girl, like a child who had done something wrong, stood in front of her mother and said with her head bowed.
"If you know you're wrong, don't do it again. Let's go, go over with mom and see the man. ”
Feeling sour by the little girl's aggrieved appearance, the middle-aged woman gently rubbed the little girl's head and said gently.
"Oh. ”
Hearing this, the little girl responded obediently, followed behind the middle-aged woman, and walked towards Yu Fan, who was still lying on the ground.
"Sir, sir, you... Are you alright?"
When she came to Yu Fan's side, she saw Yu Fan holding a small piece of steamed bun in her hand and spit white foam in her mouth, and the middle-aged woman's heart directly raised her throat and eyes, and she asked in a trembling voice.
"Water... Water ......"
The middle-aged woman asked for less than two seconds, and it looked like she was about to lose her breath, and said with difficulty.
"Oh, okay, you hold on, I'll get you water!"
Hearing Yu Fan's voice, the middle-aged woman replied with great joy, and then hurriedly turned around and returned to the house.
More than ten seconds later, the middle-aged woman ran out at a trot with a kettle.
Handing the kettle to Yu Fan, the middle-aged woman helped Yu Fan drink a few sips of water.
After drinking the water, Yu Fan slowly opened his eyes in the expectant gaze of the middle-aged woman.
"Ahem~ Thank you so much today, if you hadn't saved me, I would probably have starved to death on the streets. ”
Yu Fan, who looked very weak, struggled to sit up from the ground. He said with a weak smile on his face and a staggering body.
"Sir, I see that your body needs it so much, why don't you go to my house to rest for a while, and then talk when you are better?"
Seeing that Yu Fan was very weak and reluctant to speak, the middle-aged woman's face struggled for a few seconds, and then asked with a smile.
"That's a real nuisance. ”
Hearing this, Yu Fan's eyes flashed with a gleam, and it was justified to go to the little girl's house for a period of time, which was the real purpose of his long-time acting.
With the support of the middle-aged woman, after more than three minutes, Yu Fan lay on the only double wooden bed in the two rooms.
"My tricycle and vegetables are still in the vegetable market for people to help watch, Yan'er, you take care of this gentleman at home, and my mother will come back after selling the vegetables." ”
Seeing Yu Fan lying on the bed, it didn't take long for him to close his eyes and fall asleep. The middle-aged woman smiled, suddenly remembered what was going on, and hurriedly explained a few words to the little girl.
Then, she took out a scale under the bed, hurriedly opened the old wooden door, and went out.
After the middle-aged woman walked for a minute or two, the little girl quietly walked to Yu Fan's bedside, looked at Yu Fan's uncle's face that had been "made up" by dust and deformation, and slowly frowned.
"Uncle's facial features are so strange, how do you look like someone forcibly installed it, it's not natural at all. ”
After observing Yu Fan's facial features for a while, the little girl couldn't hold back the doubts in her heart, and carefully opened Yu Fan's right hand a little.
"Wow! This is the palmistry of the rich and the powerful. ”
As soon as she broke Yu Fan's hand a little bit and glanced at it hurriedly, the little girl couldn't help but exclaim.
"Hmm, what's wrong? What are you doing with my hands?"
Yu Fan, who pretended not to know anything, slowly opened his eyes, looked at the little girl's movements, and asked in a hoarse and puzzled voice.
"It's okay, uncle, go on and rest. ”
was hit by Yu Fan, the little girl didn't dare to look at Yu Fan's eyes, her little face turned red, and she replied in a panic.
