Chapter 876: A Foreigner Who Understands the Metaphysics of Feng Shui
The alley behind Qingniuguan is very narrow, and there are many people, so it is not easy for the car to come out, and after explaining the situation to Li Sichen, the taxi driver parked the car at the mouth of the alley.
After getting out of the car, Li Sichen walked into this narrow but high-traffic alley.
Because it is close to the Qingniu Temple, all the shops in this alley are engaged in feng shui-related trading. Of course, the people and things in this are really mixed. There are good and real things, and there are deceptive things. When tourists come here, whether they really find the right person to buy the right thing, or they are slaughtered and pitted, it depends on both luck and eyesight.
It is the New Year's Day holiday, there are quite a lot of people who come to Qingniuguan to burn incense and pray for blessings, and this alley is famous for fortune telling, physiognomy, and feng shui surveying, and it is also crowded. Some came to measure the New Year's fortune, and some came to ask for amulets to prevent Tai Sui.
Maybe he felt that Li Sichen was young and easy to cheat money, and just after entering the alley, an old man who was setting up a fortune teller on the side of the road took the initiative to talk to him: "Little brother, I see that your Yintang is black, and I am afraid that you will be haunted by bad luck in the new year." Come, come closer, and let me take a closer look at you. Don't worry, I just want to do a good deed and accumulate some public virtue, and I won't take your money. ”
Li Sichen smiled dumbly.
He hasn't seen too many of this kind of charlatans.
Like this old man, he is not a real feng shui master at all, at most he has learned a little bit of the "Book of Changes", and he relies on his ability to observe words and colors and speak skillfully, so he comes to fool people and cheat money.
The most common trick used by these charlatans is to claim that they don't need money to look at the fortune of the fortune scheme, first attract you, and then lure out some of your information, say some ambiguous words, and adjust them according to your affectionate changes, so that you will finally feel that what he says is accurate, so you will be afraid of the bad luck he says.
By the time you ask him how to crack it, you have already fallen into the pit, and how much money you have been cheated out of in the end depends entirely on the number of banknotes in your pocket and his mood.
Li Sichen's pace did not slow down at all, he just turned his head and replied with a smile: "Uncle, you don't need to look, I already know that I have not had good luck in the past few years." Besides, you saw that I was unlucky, why didn't you see that you yourself should not go out today, and that there would be a disaster of blood, money, and prison?"
The old man's face changed instantly, he cursed in a low voice, turned his head, no longer paid attention to Li Sichen, and turned to find a new target.
Not long after Li Sichen left, several people appeared in front of the old man.
Buying and selling ****.
The old man was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was very calm, and he said, "Do you want to tell fortunes? Well, you should indeed do a fortune telling." I see that your Yin Tang is black, and in the new year, I'm afraid there will be bad luck!"
Without thinking about it, one of them pointed at him and scolded: "This is the person who cheated my mother out of her money and caused my mother to get sick and be hospitalized." Brothers, let's beat up this old liar first, and then send him to the police station!"
When the old man saw that something was wrong, he got up and was about to run, but unfortunately the other party had already expected him to do this, so he rushed up and blocked him, not only beating him up, but also smashing his fortune-telling stall.
On the way to the police station, which was covered in blood and twisted by these people, the old man remembered what Li Sichen had said to him earlier. Before, he thought that Li Sichen was cursing him, but at this moment, he realized that he had met a real feng shui master, and it was the fake Li Ghost who met the real Li Kui!
"I knew I wouldn't go out today...... the old man regretted it, but it was too late.
At the same time, Li Sichen walked into the magic shop where Ma Xiaoling took him last time.
At this time, the magic shop has changed from the cold and deserted scene last time, and it is crowded.
Uncle Qi, the boss, was holding a piece of inferior jade pendant, and was recommending to the two blonde foreigners: "look, talisman! good Hetian jade! verygood! good thing! really good thing! can make you turn evil into good luck and keep you healthy...... Damn, Xiao Liu, hurry up, my English level is too high, these two foreigners can't understand it. You're a little weaker, so let's introduce them. The money of these foreign devils is better fooled. Remember to call me a higher price!"
Before the clerk Xiao Liu came over, he saw the girl among the two foreigners and said, "We know Chinese!"
"!" Uncle Qi was depressed at this moment, he originally wanted to pit these two foreigners, but he didn't expect that the other party knew his thoughts, this Nima was too embarrassing, how could he make money? At this time, he glanced at Li Sichen out of the corner of his eye, as if he had found a life-saving straw, and immediately left the two foreigners and strode up to meet him: "Ouch, isn't this Master Li? What do you want to buy this time?"
As a person in the feng shui circle, Uncle Qi's news is quite well-informed, and he now knows that Li Sichen is a strong man with the strength of a heaven-level feng shui master, so he naturally does not dare to slack off.
Li Sichen replied: "There is not enough rune paper and copper coins, so I came to you to purchase a batch." How's it going, it's in stock, right?"
Uncle Qi slapped his chest with a 'snap' sound: "Yes, yes, yes, of course there is." Master Li spoke, even if not, I have to find a way to get it together for you! Otherwise, my shop will not be laughed to death by my peers? Hey, that's right. Recently, I happened to have a batch of good things here, would you like Master Li to take a look?"
"What kind of good thing? can we also go and see it together?" The two foreigners standing on the side heard this and immediately came up.
Uncle Qi waved his hand impatiently and said, "What are you making a fuss about? ”
Li Sichen glanced at the two foreigners, saw their unhappy faces, smiled dumbly, and said, "Uncle Qi, when did your attitude towards customers become so bad? This is not the way to do business." ”
Uncle Qi led Li Sichen and walked towards the courtyard behind the store, humming and chirping: "Hey, don't mention it, these two foreigners have been looking at things in my store for a long time, and they are curious about everything, and they will ask for a long time when they see something, but they won't buy it." No matter how good my attitude is, if I am tortured by them for a long time, it will get worse, right?"
Li Sichen said with a smile: "It's normal for people not to buy those things you have outside. Because people can see that those are counterfeit goods and defective products. ”
Uncle Qi was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Master Li, what do you mean by this? Could it be that those two European and American ghost animals still understand the metaphysics of feng shui?"
