Chapter Seventy-One: Guessing and Shooting
After the young man came to the stage, he first gave incense to the incense burner, and then the old man grabbed the chess piece in his hand again and put it on the red cloth for him to guess.
The young man put the six copper coins in the tortoise shell, shook them and threw them, and after seeing the arrangement, he quickly drew the lot from the holder, and then wrote down the number. The old man bowed his head, and he had passed it.
Sun Yan saw him win so easily, and he was also very admired. After the two went out, Sun Yan asked, "Dude, how did you guess that he had three chess pieces in his hand?" ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "How does my brother know that there are three in his hand?" ”
Sun Yan said to the bottom of his mind, and hurriedly said nonsense: "I can see it from your actions when you write." ”
"No," the young man shook his head, "I'm writing in capital letters, how can you tell?" ”
Sun Yan saw that he didn't believe it, so he had to say: "Don't hide it from my brother, I have had some premonitions since I was a child." ”
"Really?" The young man was overjoyed and said, "My brother just asked me how to guess, and that is also the ability I have had since I was a child. ”
Sun Yan wondered, "Didn't you use tortoise shells to calculate?" ”
The young man shook his head and sneered, "Brother is joking." Do you think I'm one of those street scammers? Divination is a technique derived from innate ability, and it is applied on the spot, all in the word sincerity, and the heart has a feeling, so that things can be expected to be seen. As for gossip and easy reasoning, it's just an algorithm; Tortoiseshell yarrow is more rotten wood and dry bones, what is the effect? I can deduce it with a chopstick. ”
Sun Yan had never heard of these words, but they sounded the same as the principle of the talisman he saw in his notes, everything in the world can become a talisman, just wait for sincerity and spirituality. Hurriedly asked: "Then brother, did you directly guess how many pieces he had in his hand?" ”
"Not really," the young man explained to him, "for example, just now, I first shook out a hexagram, and the hexagram is six or nine. And the number of six or nine, the only one can hold is three, six, nine, and fifteen. I drew lots again, and got the fifth lot, five is not in the number of births, the number of numbers, so I can only touch with fifteen, and get three and ten two numbers, and three is exactly in the six or nine, I am sure that he has three in his hand. ”
After hearing this, Sun Yan's eyes had already turned in circles, and he asked in a daze, "Then isn't this still calculated?" What kind of innate ability do you say? ”
The young man smiled, "Didn't I say it? No matter which method is used for divination, it is just a set of formulas, and my ability is to make the arranged hexagrams accurate, so that I can substitute the formula to solve the problem, which is not learned. ”
Sun Yan set up a stall in the City God Temple, and saw a lot of fortune tellers, so he couldn't help asking: "You mean that those stalls on the street are all deceitful?" ”
The young man snorted coldly, "The blind fortune-telling is just a word game of 'father dies first and mother dies first'." ”
He paused and said, "But there are real masters among them, and they can't all be killed with a stick." As for whether it is really capable, it is also easy to test. ”
"Can you still test it?" Sun Yan asked.
"Why not? It's just guessing, and there's also shooting. If the fortune-teller can't do even these two things, do you believe he can calculate your future? He can just see what you look like. The young man smiled and shook his head.
"Shoot over...... What is it? "Sun Yan really doesn't know anything about divination.
At this moment, the moon is bright, and it is also a special feeling to enjoy the moon in this suburb. The organizers of the dark market also understood the amorous feelings, only lit a few small lights, and did not compete with the moonlight, so the two went to bump into the shopkeeper Feng while chatting, and did not deliberately look for it.
When the young man heard Sun Yan ask about the shooting, he also said with admiration: "The diviner called the guess in the box to shoot over, even I can't do this." I heard that there is a strange man in the provincial city nicknamed 'Chang Fugui', and only he can guess things out of thin air. ”
"Chang Fugui?" Sun Yan smiled, "Then he must have the surname Chang?" Why don't you just call it that? ”
The young man shook his head, "He is not surnamed Chang, I really don't know what his surname is, there is a saying that he knows three days before, and he will be rich for thousands of years." How could he have expected three days later? That's why it got such a nickname. The two strange people in divination and arithmetic, that is, the 'Chang Fugui' in the north and the 'early know' in the south. So you can't guess the shot, and you can tell people's fortunes? Don't believe that. ”
"Chang Fugui, I already knew ......" Sun Yan silently read the names of these two people, and asked again: "So the two of them are also born with divination ability?" ”
The young man nodded solemnly, "I think it must be so. By the way, brother, you just said that you have a premonition since you were a child, aren't you just one of my generation? If you don't like it, why don't you learn divination with me? ”
Sun Yan was dizzy when he remembered what he had just said, "Raw and ripe", and said with a smile: "Spare me." ”
As he was talking, he stopped again, and suddenly asked, "If you can dream about what will happen in the future, do you also have the ability to divination?" Sun Yan thought of Li Jinnan.
"What?" The young man was very surprised, "Brother, you have such an opportunity?" This is the ability of foreknowledge, which is completely beyond the realm of divination and arithmetic, and I have heard of it before, but I can't explain it to you. ”
"Foresight ability ......" Sun Yan wrote down, but he seemed to have seen the word somewhere, but he couldn't remember it at all.
This young man's name is Gu Bo, and he is also from a small artificial family, and the two of them only ran into Shopkeeper Feng when they were about to announce the results of the competition.
"Brother Feng, I delayed your reunion with your family." Sun Yan said apologetically.
Feng Jing waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Sun, what are you talking about, I heard before that the selection of the corpse control technique will be carried out in the cemetery on the mountain over there, but when I ran over to take a look, no one signed up." ”
"Brother Feng is interested in that?" Sun Yan actually expected that the corpse control artist was not as bad as his kung fu, so he was playing with his life. Since the kung fu is not bad, it would be good to participate in the martial arts directly, why bother with that effort? Besides, Sun Yan has not seen a single corpse on his body until now.
"I haven't seen anything new, let's go over Brother Sun, we're going to announce the results."
At this time, the headlights were lit up in the entire central competition area, and many people who had been eliminated in the competition, fighting and divination had left early and gone home for the holidays, and there were less than 500 people left on the field.
Sun Yan saw that although alchemy was a grading system, there were only seven people standing there in total, and the number of primaries could not even be reached, no wonder people said that there were many places for talisman refining after seeing the rules in the afternoon.
As soon as the scores of the written test came out here, twenty people each were left in martial arts, medical skills, and divination. Then there are ten people left for spells, five people for alchemy, and there are still five people missing for controllable corpses? From among the eliminators in the other five subjects, one person with the highest score was proposed, which was enough for 80 people. As for the overlapping scores, the level has already been determined by lottery when I brushed it down just now, so I don't have to bother anymore.
Others Sun Yan didn't know, anyway, he, Gu Bo, and Liu Qi were all selected. The organizers gave the 80 people vouchers to participate in the league, and asked everyone to gather at the city stadium two days in advance next month, that is, the 13th day of September of the lunar calendar, and make unified arrangements to go to the Central Plains Dark Market.
Sun Yan and Gu Bo exchanged phone calls, and then went back with Feng Jing.
"Brother Sun, have a drink? Celebrate your selection. Feng Jing was quite interested.
Sun Yan smiled: "I'm a lonely person, your brother should hurry back to accompany his family, it's too troublesome for you." ”
"Hey," Feng Jing rolled down the window, "You and my brother are also old friends, don't be polite to my brother in the future." ”
Sun Yan happened to be hungry, so he didn't refuse. The two found a restaurant that was still open and had a good drink, which was also a holiday.
He asked for a substitute driver to send the drunk Feng Jing back, and then he walked home alone. But at this moment, Sun Yan actually felt that something evil was approaching the jade talisman he gave to Li Jinnan.
Sun Yan didn't dare to delay, and took a taxi while releasing stones to go over to inquire about the situation first. The location is on the street near the Polytechnic University, could it be that Xin Jinxin?
……
Xin Jinxin was blocked by two men in the alley opposite the west gate of the school, she looked at Wang Jie in the distance in disbelief, and couldn't figure out why she lied to herself.
"You can just throw away the jade pendant around her neck, it's not a crime." Wang Jie commanded the man, her face a little unbearable.
"You ......" Xin Jinxin didn't understand why Wang Jie wanted this jade pendant. She originally lived in a single apartment at school, but not long ago, her good friend Wang Jie suddenly called, saying that she had quarreled with her boyfriend and was kicked out, and asked Jinxin to come to the hotel to accompany her.
Xin Jinxin was led here after leaving school. She actually wanted to return the jade pendant to Li Jinnan for a long time, and the two also talked on the phone after the night of the dance, but every time they made an appointment to go shopping, it rained. They thought they were going to see each other all the time, so they didn't take it too seriously.
The man quickly approached, quickly pulling away the two arms that Jinxin protected in front of his chest. One of them ripped off the zipper of her tunic and tore the long-sleeved shirt directly from the neckline before tearing off the necklace around her neck.
"Give it back!" Jinxin struggled angrily, only wanting to get the necklace back, and didn't even care about exposing her own corset completely. Because it wasn't hers, and she knew that this jade pendant was very important to Li Jinnan.
The stone was watching dryly, but he was staring at Xin Jinxin's white and tender neck, and swallowed several times of saliva. He can't help it, the four here are all alive, and he can't help.
At this time, the man who took the necklace also looked at Jinxin's chest, he couldn't help it, and even reached out to pull Jinxin's corset.
"Chestnut," the other man grabbed his hand and said, "Let's go when we're done, this can't be done, it's easy to tease, rape is not a joke." ”
It's a long story, but it's just a matter of a moment. Wang Jie also just reacted from the fright, and hurriedly said: "Yes, if you throw this pendant on the wall, it won't be considered a robbery, let's go." ”
The man named Chestnut also thought about it, and this was not a wilderness, so he dared to think of anything else, so he threw the necklace behind the wall and said, "Go." After saying that, the two of them pulled their legs and ran.
Jinxin didn't look at the man, nor did she pay attention to Wang Jie, she wrapped her coat tightly, wiped her tears and ran into the alley, because the gate of this partition wall was in front.
The stone that was about to follow suddenly looked at Wang Jie, and then pounced, his capture of breath was close to a conditioned reflex.
Wang Jie sneered: "It's just in time, do you think it's last time?" Saying that, she had studs on her ears, and the stone was sucked directly into it.
