Tang Xin was dragged into the living room by the old man again in a daze, looking a little dazed.

"Grandpa, it's great that you're back so soon." Xia Jiuying saw that the old man came back safe and sound, and stepped forward happily and said.

"Grandpa has worked the West Coast of the United States for decades, and he has never seen any scenes, just a few policemen, and it can be done in minutes." The old man sat down and said unashamedly.

"Grandpa......" Tang Xinxin was caught very tightly by the old man, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, she saw Xia Jiuying call the old man Grandpa, and she also called her like this.

"Stop!" The old man interrupted Tang Xinxin's words and said, "Little girl, I see that your face is full of blood, obviously a dead person, call my grandfather and I will lose my life." ”

Tang Xinxin was suddenly a little embarrassed when she heard this, and even more frightened, after all, she was just a girl in her twenties, and she was said by an old man to be full of blood, she was a dead person, and she didn't lose her temper on the spot.

"Tang Xinxin, this old gentleman has no malicious intentions, and his physiognomy skills are very powerful, the reason why he said this must have her reason, don't panic." Xiao Yuan saw Tang Xinxin's frightened face, and cast a look at him for help, so he explained with a smile.

"Ahh Tang Xinxin listened to Xiao Yuan's explanation, and felt even more frightened, his face instantly turned pale, and he couldn't help screaming, wanting to pull his hand out of the old man's hand.

"Don't move." The old man was spreading out Tang Xinxin's palm to look at her palm prints, and naturally she was not allowed to withdraw her hand, so she snorted coldly, Tang Xinxin was startled, but the action of pulling her hand also stopped, and she reluctantly let the old man look at her palm prints.

The old man looked at it for a while, let go of Tang Xinxin's hand, and then stared at her pretty face again and again, and the puzzle on his face disappeared.

"Understood, understood, I see."

"What do you understand, old man?" Because it was about his own body, Tang Xinxin couldn't help but ask.

"Do you have a twin brother, or brother?" The old man asked.

"Yes, I have a twin brother." Tang Xinxin replied.

"He's dead." The old man said bluntly.

"Ahh Tang Xinxin stood up when he heard this, his face changed greatly, and then he grabbed the old man's clothes with some eagerness, and asked, "Old man, are you...... Are you telling the truth? ”

"You and your brother are twins, and the twins have an electric induction in the underworld, so his blood-light disaster appeared on your face, the old man just looked away, ashamed, ashamed, little girl, you stretch out your hand, the old man gives you the number of pulses." The old man said.

Tang Xinxin's eyes were already full of tears, and he sat down next to the old man again, and obediently stretched out his hand, he had already believed most of the old man's words, because her brother had been missing for a long time, and she had a period of time before, she would often wake up in the middle of the night, inexplicably sad and crying, vaguely she already felt that her brother might have had an accident, but she didn't want to admit it.

"You are weak and have not had enough sleep recently, and the reason for this has a lot to do with your brother's death, but the old man still advises you, the deceased is gone, and the living should look forward, so that the respect of the deceased." The old man explained, sighed lightly as he spoke, and said with a look of remembrance, "I think that if the old man's granddaughter hadn't had an accident, she would have been about the same age as you, but it's a pity, alas-"

Xiao Yuan and Xia Jiuying heard the old man talking about his granddaughter, and they glanced at each other, and they both saw nervousness in each other's eyes, obviously they were both worried that the old man would get sick again because of the mention of sadness.

"Sir, can you see how my brother died?" Tang Xinxin asked again.

"Heh, do you think the old man is a fairy?" The old man smiled and asked rhetorically.

"I'm sorry, I took the liberty of it, sir, if you have nothing to do, I'll go first." Tang Xinxin stood up and said.

"I hope you will be happy and go." The old man didn't stop Tang Xinxin, waved his hand and said.

"Goodbye." Tang Xinxin said goodbye to Xiao Yuan again, and then left in a hurry.

After Tang Xinxin left, the old man saw that Xiao Yuan and the others had been standing in the living room without sitting down, so he waved his hand and said, "What are you doing standing, sit down, little girl, you go and make a pot of tea, the old man is thirsty." ”

"I'm going to make tea?" Lin Ran pointed to his nose and asked.

"Yes, you are the youngest here, can you still let the old man make you tea?" The old man asked rhetorically.

"Oh, okay." Lin Ran pursed his lips and went to the kitchen to make tea.

Xiao Yuan and Xia Jiuying sat opposite the old man, and the old man asked, "Where is my book?" ”

"I've put it away, you'll see me take it out for you." Xiao Yuan said.

"No need." The old man waved his hand and said, "Boy, from today onwards, if the old man wants to urge you to study, start with the introduction to the Book of Changes." ”

"Okay." Xiao Yuan replied happily.

"Well, since you also agreed, then the first task that the old man gave you was to memorize the book word for word in three days."

"Ah, memorize it!"

Xiao Yuan was shocked when he heard this, when he was in junior high school and high school, what he was most annoyed about was reciting ancient texts, at that time the ancient texts were all short stories, and they were relatively easy to understand classic chapters, and the difficulty of getting started to the Book of Changes was far more difficult than those ancient classics, not to mention the length of the text, so when the old man asked him to memorize the introduction of the Book of Changes in three days, his face was bitter.

"What, do you have an opinion?" The old man's face sank and he asked.

"Isn't it okay to understand, why do you have to memorize it?" Xiao Yuan asked.

"Of course you have to memorize it, not only the primer, but all the books I brought you, you have to memorize it, this is not negotiable." The old man waved his hand and said something that made Xiao Yuan even more creepy, that box of books had to be memorized, it was terrible.

"I protest, you are cramming, even if I memorize it, what's the use of not understanding." Xiao Yuan protested.

"The protest is invalid, boy, don't be dissatisfied, my old man rarely has the time and mood to train you, you should feel fortunate in three lives, if this kind of thing is heard by the boys in Hongmen, it is estimated that the eyes of envy will fall." The old man dismissed Xiao Yuan's protest.

"They envy you for teaching them, my learning method is based on understanding, supplemented by memorization, if you want to do the opposite, it will cause serious interference to me." Xiao Yuan continued to argue.

"Boy, don't struggle, I have already discussed this matter with your master yesterday, if you are not willing to be obedient, go to your master to reason." The old man said proudly.

"My master agreed?" Xiao Yuan asked unexpectedly.

"Agreed, my old man offered to train his disciples for him, does he dare to disagree, boy, it's so decided, starting tomorrow, you start to endorse me, no matter what method you use, in three days, you must memorize the I Ching, otherwise the old man will punish you." The old man said.

"But ......" Xiao Yuan still felt unwilling, the most important thing was that he was unwilling to endorse, so he wanted to argue again.

"Boy, you're still not a man?" The old man interrupted his argument with a snort.

"Of course I'm a man." Xiao Yuan replied.

"There is a famous saying, it is a man, and it must be endorsed." The old man said.

"I've never heard of this, and it doesn't make sense." Xiao Yuan asked rhetorically.

"I said this sentence, and the truth is also what I said, that's it, if you mess around again, be careful that the old man beats you." The old man glared at him and said loudly.

"Xiao Yuan, you just promise to come down, grandpa is also good to you." Xia Jiuying sat on the side and saw that the two of them were arguing, and she was a little worried that the old man would be sick, so she pulled Xiao Yuan's arm and persuaded her.

"Okay." Xiao Yuan originally wanted to continue to resist, but Xia Jiuying's opening softened him instantly.

"Well, goodness is like water, and softness overcomes rigidity, boy, the old man can see it, you are a typical example of eating soft and not hard, haha......" The old man saw that Xiao Yuan agreed, and laughed proudly.
