Chapter 1 Plum Blossoms Easy to Count

"Yi Xingchen, help me calculate a hexagram, I'm chasing a boy from another class, will I have development with him?"

In the classroom of the third year of high school, during recess, several male and female students gathered around Yi Xingchen's desk, and a girl with a few freckles on her face said to Yi Xingchen with excitement.

Yi Xingchen is a senior in high school, and he likes to read some fortune-telling books since he was a child. If you have nothing to do, you can learn to tell fortunes for others. His classmates also like to surround him in their spare time and let him tell fortunes.

Yi Xingchen took the pen and paper and said, "Okay, tell me your birthday." ”

The girl said the eight characters of her birthday. Yi Xingchen drew the hexagram on the paper and said, "Use your birth date and add the current hour, and you can start a hexagram." -- The upper hexagram is the redemption hexagram, and the lower hexagram is the Kan hexagram, and this hexagram is called the Zeshui Trapped Hexagram. The moving line is in the second line. Discharge the original hexagram, the use hexagram, the two mutual hexagrams, and the change hexagram, oh, that's it. ”

Yi Xingchen pointed to the five hexagrams drawn on the paper with a pen and explained: "The first one is called 'body hexagram', which represents you, and it is a hexagram, which belongs to gold, and the second one is called 'use hexagram', which represents the boy, which is a kan hexagram, which belongs to water." Jin Shengshui, this is called leaking, which means that you are pursuing him, but he does not shy away from you. ”

The surrounding boys and girls all laughed, and the girl who told the fortune blushed and glared at Yi Xingchen: "Who said that?" He likes me! ”

A girl next to her smiled and said, "Okay, don't put gold on your face, I know you handed someone a note three times, and they didn't give you a reply." Hee-hee, --Yi Xingchen's calculations are quite accurate. ”

Yi Xingchen was a little proud, in fact, this was calculated by him with common sense: since the girls in this fortune teller said that she was chasing a boy, and asked them if they had developed? That is to say, the other party has not liked her yet, so she will be worried and want to ask for a divination. If the man also likes her, the two of them have already been patted and dragged away, even if she wants to come to divination, she will only ask whether the two of them will last long in the future and whether they will get married.

Yi Xingchen is good at observing words and feelings, and can hear information related to the things asked by the divination from other people's words, so his fortune telling is also somewhat accurate. It's just that most of it was taken out of other people's words.

The girl who told the fortune gave the girl who exposed her shortness a blank look: "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" He turned around and said to Yi Xingchen with a red face: "You go on, is it possible for me to talk to him?" ”

Yi Xingchen looked at the hexagram on the paper, and pretended to pinch his fingers with his left hand, and read "wood, fire, earth, gold and water, dry one to two, three shocks and four" and the like, as if he was calculating something.

After a while, he shook his head, dragged out his tone and said: "The original hexagram of this hexagram is called Zeshui Trapped Hexagram, and it becomes the second hexagram. In the Book of Changes, the second line of the Hexagram is written like this: "Trapped in wine and food, Zhu Fu Fang comes, uses the sacrifice, collects evil, and is not to blame", and the "Book of Changes: Xiang Biography" further explains: "Ninety-two, trapped in wine and food, there is a celebration." ’”

The girl and the onlookers looked at each other, not knowing what they were saying, but their faces were full of awe.

Yi Xingchen likes to tell hexagrams, and he has already memorized a "Book of Changes" well, and reciting a few sentences when he is telling hexagrams can make people feel very mysterious and increase his confidence in divination. Now that it has really taken effect, I am very happy, and I shook my head again, and then I continued: "The meaning of this sentence is that there will be a great joy between you and him, so that you will be so happy that you will have a wine banquet to celebrate, and you will eat until your stomach is uncomfortable, hehe." ”

"Huh? So I have a play with him? The girl asked in surprise.

"Of course, look at your hexagram, this hexagram represents your result, the hexagram is the kun hexagram belongs to the earth, and it represents your body hexagram to the hexagram is gold, the earth is born of gold, the lord is auspicious, - congratulations, you will definitely succeed!"

"Really?" The girl leaned over excitedly and glared at him, "You must not coax me!" ”

"Of course it's true, but don't be happy just yet, although you will eventually be together, there will be many twists and turns in between. Because the two mutual hexagrams that represent your procrastination process are not very good, the first mutual hexagram is that the hexagram belongs to fire, fire and gold, and the main culprit, which means that you are pursuing him hard, but he doesn't like you at all, he is not moved by your true feelings, and he will not pity the jade at all, and will even be angry with you, and will say that he hates you, so that you don't pester him, and the words he says are very difficult to hear, and you will be very hurt about it. You have to be mentally prepared. ”

The girl who told the fortune was dumbfounded, opened her mouth wide, and looked at Yi Xingchen: "Then ......, what happened later?" ”

"After your unremitting efforts and cheeky stalking, he finally changed his mind and reconciled with you. - You see, the Shang Hu hexagram is the Xun hexagram wood, Jin Kemu, which means that in the end you have conquered his fortress, but you will be very tired of pursuing, pay a lot, and your feelings will be very hurt. Thankfully, you have a happy ending. The prince and princess finally lived together without shame. ”

Hahaha!

The onlookers burst into laughter.

The girl who told the hexagram had a red and white face, bit her lip, snorted in her nostrils, and looked at Yi Xingchen with a pair of peach blossom eyes: "Are you accurate in this hexagram?" ”

A girl next to him said: "He is very accurate in his calculations, last time I asked him to calculate whether I could pass the exam, he did, and said that he barely passed." Sure enough, I scored 62 points. Very accurate! ”

"Really?" Several classmates widened their eyes.

The fortune teller girl said: "Since you are accurate, then tell me, what does the boy I like look like?" ”

Yi Xingchen smiled, thinking that this is not easy to calculate, pointing to the hexagram on the paper and saying: "His hexagram is the Kan hexagram, the Kan hexagram means a middle man, his stature is medium, not tall or short, not fat or thin......"

"Yes, yes, absolutely!" The divination girl nodded excitedly, and the freckles on her face were much brighter.

Yi Xingchen continued: "The Kan hexagram belongs to water, and at the same time, the middle of the Kan hexagram is yang, and the two yin hexagrams on the outside prove that he is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, giving people the impression that he is personable and gentle, especially for girls." However, in fact, he is very assertive in his heart, absolutely unambiguous about things he doesn't like, and don't want to force him to accept things he doesn't like. ”

"That's right!" The divination girl looked at Yi Xingchen with admiration on her face, "He is very handsome, cool, and gentle, especially with a touch of sadness, he is fascinated!" The freckled girl held her hands on her chest and looked up at the ceiling, as if looking at the boy who fascinated him, looking like a nymphomaniac, "He is really assertive, those girls who chase him, he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it, and it's useless for anyone to say." - You're really accurate! ”

"Of course!" Yi Xingchen said triumphantly: "Tell you, I will have a lot of ways to calculate hexagrams, and the one I will give you now is called 'Plum Blossom Easy Counting', referred to as 'Mei Xinyi', which is the most famous Yi Xue Immortal Master Shao Yong in the Song Dynasty according to the principle of Zhou Yi founded the method of divination, which can be said to be the most accurate of all the methods of fortune telling." ”

Yi Xingchen glanced at the classmates who were surrounded by astonishment and awe, and then said mysteriously: "Do you know why this method of divination is called plum blossom easy counting?" According to legend, during the Song Dynasty, one day, Shao Yongxian went to the plum garden to enjoy the plum blossoms, and saw two sparrows arguing on the plum branches, so he calculated a hexagram, saying that there would be a woman to pick plum blossoms the next night, and the gardener mistook it for a thief chasing, and the woman fell down in panic and broke her knee. And the next night it came to pass. As a result, Shao Yongxian's reputation was great, and people called his method of divination as plum blossom easy counting. ”

Several classmates nodded frequently: "Listening to what you say, this plum blossom easy to count should be very accurate." ”

"Of course, and besides, I have studied plum blossom numbers since I was a child, and I am proficient in this way. If my hexagram is not accurate, then no one can calculate it accurately! Hey. ”
