。

Huangnan Village is not far away, located in the east of Zhuo County, and it didn't take long to arrive. There are two big locust trees at the entrance of the village, some years old, swaying their branches in the wind. The village is an earthy yellow, the flat-cornered huts are dusty, and every house has a yard that is piled up with stones. As they walked, a few yellow-colored dogs barked and shouted behind them.

In this way, the whole village knew that an outsider was coming.

The common people were waiting outside the village, Yuan Xi brought Zhao Yun and Lu Fang in, and as soon as he entered the village, he found a very serious matter. The old man of the Lu family only said that there was a sage in Huang Nan Village, but he didn't say what his name was. It's blind.

Yuan Xi saw an old man sitting on a tree stump at the entrance of the village resting, so he walked over and asked, "Uncle, do you have any particularly virtuous people here...... Hermit! Great Confucian! Sage! ”

Ask one, and the old man shook his head.

Yuan Xi finally collapsed and said, "Who is the most famous in your village?"

The old man suddenly turned around and shouted: "Someone is looking for Huang Blind!" ”

I heard someone not far away also shouting: "Someone is looking for Huang Blind - son!" ”

Then, like a relay, the voices came and went, and they spread far away, better than text messages.

Yuan Xi grabbed the old man and said: "I'm not looking for a blind man, I'm looking for talents, do you understand?"

The old man shook his head, returned to his previous stunned appearance, and opened his mouth at him, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and smirked.

Yuan Xi gave up talking to him and was ready to ask someone else. I saw a child running out of the village, dressed very thinly in winter, and a section of the skin on his trouser leg was exposed, but the little boy's face was flushed, and he didn't feel cold at all.

He saw Yuan Xi and the others, and said, "You come to find the yellow blind man, I will take you there, and each person will charge five yuan!" ”

It's also going to take money who came up with it

Yuan Xi said: "Won't we go to find it ourselves, besides, I'm not looking for a blind man, I'm looking for a sage, do you know who is the most virtuous in your village?"

In this era, if you want to be famous and want to be filial piety, you must either be talented, that is, "virtuous", or have the righteousness of loyalty and filial piety, that is, "virtue", and talents with both ability and political integrity are the people who everyone looks up to. Virtue and talent, virtue is still on it, if a person has talent but no virtue, then he will be scolded behind his back. But if there is no talent alone, then everyone will still give a thumbs up, or even praise more.

The kid spat on the ground and said, "Bah, don't you look for the yellow blind man, will you make me run for nothing...... and then turned around to leave.

Yuan Xi hurriedly stopped him and said, "Child, tell me, what kind of person is the yellow blind man?"

The kid patted his chest and said, "Yellow blind man, that's famous." Hundreds of miles nearby, who didn't know, everyone rushed to our village to let the yellow blind man tell his fortune. If it weren't for the familiar faces of you, I wouldn't have earned your money. ”

It turned out to be a fortune teller. Yuan Xi couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, he was looking for a virtuous person to govern the country, and he was not here to tell fortunes. Let's not talk about whether fortune-telling is accurate or not, even if it is a god operator, what use is it to himself, can he still tell fortunes for this country?

I heard that it was called "Yellow Blind Man", and a street warlock with a guide rod, rolling his eyes, and wearing a Republican-style coat and shirt appeared in his heart, most of them pretended to be blind and cheated money, although there were also people who knew how to do it, but most of them scared you first as soon as they opened their mouths, "This lady, I see that your Yintang is black, I am afraid that there will be a bloody disaster in the near future." Then "I'd rather leak the secret of heaven and damage my own life" will also come to help you. When the money is in place, the scourge will be solved.

"Could it be that there are already fortune tellers in this era"

The child glanced at Yuan Xi, still had hope in his heart, and asked, "I'll ask again one last time if you want to go, and forget if you don't go."

Yuan Xi was also a little curious at this time, whether ancient fortune telling and modern fortune telling were the same, so he said: "Go, you take us to meet the yellow blind man, but each person only gives three yuan, a total of nine yuan." ”

The child gritted his teeth and said, "Cheng, three dollars is three dollars." ”

Lu Fang and Zhao Yun both glanced at Yuan Xi with disdain, and the characters with thousands of dollars in their pockets actually negotiated the price with the children.

Yuan Xi muttered: "I knew that he was so refreshing, he should have been cut into two dollars." I think this yellow blind man is also average, if the business is really good, this kid who leads the way will not be willing to discount......"

No matter how you look at it, he is a charlatan, and as soon as he entered this village, he was blown to the sky by the sentence "yellow blind man" on the left and the "yellow blind man" on the right. Do you believe that whatever you say, everything is packaged!

I followed the child and walked a short distance, just about fifty meters into the entrance of the village, there was a mud house, the courtyard was cleaned up very neatly, a mill was placed next to it, and there was a garden in it, and some vegetable seedlings were planted. The style of an ordinary pastoral home.

The child led them here and shouted: "Yellow blind man, someone is a fortune teller!" Then he asked Yuan Xi for money, and left happily humming a small tune.

The door panel of the mud house was removed from the middle, and sure enough, it was a blind old man with a small rag hat, a tattered cotton jacket, and rolling his eyes.

The man's forehead was full of wrinkles, his eyebrows drooped, his beard was yellow and forked, and three small pinches hung down on his chin, and when he got closer, there was a sour smell on his body. Yuan Xi hurriedly covered his nose.

The yellow blind man raised his head, opened a pair of eyes without pupils, and said, "Which fortune teller please sit on the stone pier." With that, he pointed to a natural stone in the courtyard.

Yuan Xi pushed Zhao Yun and said, "You sit up." ”

Zhao Yun muttered, and when he saw Yuan Xi's resolute attitude, he didn't shirk it, and sat down directly.

Yuan Xi said: "Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, Huang Blind, you tell him a fortune"

The yellow blind man said: "Cheng! Count thirty dollars at a time. He spread out his palms.

Yuan Xi said in his heart: This is still an advance payment service, so he took out the copper coin and put it in his spread hand. The yellow blind man's hands were covered with mud, his fingernails were sallow, and there was mud in them. If he had grown like a fairy wind and bones, Yuan Xi might have thought that he was really the wise man that the old man of the Lu family said, but now that he thinks about it, it is estimated that he is not talking about him.

The yellow blind man accepted the money, checked it, and smiled with satisfaction. Then he touched his hands forward until he touched the corner of Zhao Yun's clothes, then he grabbed him on the shoulder, and then stretched a paw towards his face.

"Wait!" Seeing this, Yuan Xi hurriedly asked: "You are a fortune teller, why are you still touching your dirty hands?"

"Nonsense! The old man's eyes can't see, if I don't touch him, how can I tell fortunes, this is called touching the bones, do you understand that it is reasonable to touch the whole body, but the old man only needs to touch his face, you can forget it, you are too troublesome"

It makes sense. Yuan Xi couldn't refute for a while, but asked: "Then if there is a yellow flower girl to tell fortunes, you still touch the face of other people's daughters"

The yellow blind man said: "Of course the yellow flower girl also wants to touch it, but people beg me to touch the whole body, and the old man is still troublesome......"

Yuan Xi stuck out his tongue, this old man has a way of bragging.

Zhao Yun was touched by him, and then touched his facial features. Those five black and shiny fingers were too terrifying, and they all left black marks on Zhao Yun's little white face.

Finally, the yellow blind man stopped, shook his hand, and said, "Okay, it's over." ”

"How do you say that," Yuan Xi asked curiously.

"The young man's life is good, the first half of his life is running around and working hard, and after meeting a nobleman, he will rise to the top, if he is a literati, it is no problem to be a scholar, if he is a martial artist, the position of the commander of the army will not be able to run away. If you finally grasp the opportunity, you can still be a founding minister. However, the life is fire, so you must avoid being upright and make good connections. ”

Yuan Xi and Zhao Yun looked at each other.
