I used Xiaoye Rosewood's chopsticks to clip a piece of fish meat, and was about to put it in my mouth, when I suddenly heard that the sixth master said that the departure time was set for tomorrow morning, I was quite shocked, and simply put the meat of the money duck on the plate, and said, "So anxious? ”

Gu Yixin also frowned slightly, looked sideways at the sixth master, and said, "Time is indeed a bit rushed!" Can't you be two days late? ”

The sixth master explained with a smile: "It's too late, I have checked the yellow calendar and calculated the auspicious time, and there is no suitable time for travel in the last five or six days, only eight o'clock tomorrow is considered a semi-auspicious day." ”

People who trade in feng shui generally believe in the auspiciousness of the date, the auspicious date is smooth, and the date is bad for life. In ancient times, when the army went out, it would generally choose an auspicious day of the zodiac, in order to win the flag and return triumphantly.

Calculating auspicious times is a very complex process that needs to be inferred based on the specific matter, the direction of the act, and even the personality of the person doing it. Inferring the auspicious day is relatively simple, and the most basic is according to the song of the twelve gods: "Build a full flat to collect black, except for the danger and the yellow, it can be used when it is opened, and it is not quite closed and broken." The day set by the sixth master is the founding day, which has the meaning of healthy and prosperous spirit, and it is advisable to march, go out, and seek wealth...... But in combination with the season, this vigor has been reduced a lot, and it can only be regarded as half an auspicious day.

Hei Niu didn't know how to do it, and when he heard the sixth master say this, he shouted: "It's according to the auspicious time set by the sixth master, we are not a big girl to marry, and we have to take care of it." Last time, I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out, so I almost ended up underground, and this time I must pick a good time! ”

Tom. Li echoed in blunt Mandarin: "Mr. Niu makes sense! To make a big deal, be sure to pick a good time! ”

Zhang Xuefeng sneered and said in a disdainful tone: "What a fucking auspicious time!" Lao Tzu never believed in these things! Now, our team is not ready, and we will set off again in three days! ”

Zhang Xuefeng's tone was unquestionably firm.

When the sixth master heard this, his face showed embarrassment, and he forced out a smile, and explained: "Chief Zhang doesn't know, in addition to the auspicious time, there is another reason that forces us to leave tomorrow. ”

Gu Yixin held the wine glass, the corners of his eyebrows raised, and asked curiously, "What is the reason?" Please also ask the sixth master to make it clear! ”

The sixth master slowly explained: "The Hades Palace we are going to this time is in the desert Forte, and according to the hints on the map, after we enter the Taklamakan Desert, we have to go up along an above-ground river. However, according to the observation of investigators over the years, this river, which has been on the surface for hundreds of years, has gradually disappeared into the ground under the influence of desertification, and only returns to the ground during the heavy rain at the end of the third lunar month every year, and will return to the ground after flowing on the surface for about a week. When the time comes, the wind and sand will cover the riverbed again, and the shadow of that great river will be hidden in the vast sea of sand! We will have no trace! ”

Ancient maps were not as specific as today's maps, and were marked with latitude and longitude. Although we do not have the map itself, it can be inferred from the sheepskin rope that binds the map that this map is much older than Gao Mo's sheepskin map of the Qing Dynasty, and its age should be at least in the Ming Dynasty. Most of the maps in ancient times used mountains and rivers as landmarks, and even if the location of the Hades Palace was clearly recorded, the route needed to be determined by referring to the landmarks along the way.

Gu Yixin pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, it is very close to the time when that big river appeared, in order not to miss the best time, we will set off according to the time set by the sixth master, as for our team, we can leave two days later." ”

After Gu Yixin finished speaking, she turned her eyes to me again, this is the third time she has seen me tonight, compared to the number of times I have seen her, it is simply pitiful. Her gaze fell on me, as if asking for my opinion.

In fact, for us, it doesn't matter which day we set off, even if we leave after eating, we will pat our butts and follow. As for the equipment, the sixth master must have prepared it a long time ago.

I nodded to Gu Yixin, picked up the wine glass in front of me, raised it, and said, "Since Miss Gu has spoken, then let's follow the leader's instructions and leave tomorrow morning!" ”

Everyone sitting around the round table, except for the Divine Medicine Woman, raised their glasses and raised them towards the middle to sign agreement.

A birthday feast, when you eat it. During this period, the sixth master told us about his route planning and the allocation of the accompanying handymen.

Hei Niu asked for the sheepskin map that recorded the Shahai Hades twice, and each time the sixth master excused himself, saying that there were many people here, and he would definitely show it to us when he got on the train.

Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the chips are staggered, and in a blink of an eye, the three jars of aged wine were drunk by us. Hei Niu's tongue was big, and he took the sixth master's hand and asked his second uncle about the inverted fight nine years ago. The sixth master drank a few glasses of rice wine, touched the scene, and told the failed inverted fighting operation again and again, and its general meaning was similar to what we knew before.

I was slightly drunk, and looked at Gu Yixin in front of me with a more touching expression than before. One night, the two of us made sporadic eye contact, and other than that, there were polite words. Gu Yixin raised his wine glass and gestured to me. I can't remember how many times this was the first time she had drunk without a word, but she smiled and drank the aged wine from the glass, then turned the glass upside down with her fingers, as if to demonstrate to me.

I secretly complained in my heart: I didn't expect Gu Yixin's amount of alcohol to be so amazing, she was on a par with me tonight, I had to pick up the wine glass and prepare to drink again.

Gao Moli blocked my wine glass with his hand, and said slowly in a tone that could not be disobeyed: "The last glass." ”

I was stunned for a moment, and replied with a smile, "Okay, one last cup." Anyway, it's time to leave. ”

Gao Moli withdrew his hand, and I raised my glass to Gu Yixin and drank it all. Like a warm spring, the wine glides down the throat and reaches the chest.

At the end of the birthday banquet, the three of us were arranged by the housekeeper Miao Yiding to live in Longxing Inn with other guests.

Before parting, Gu Yixin smiled at me, and then got up with Zhang Xuefeng, preparing to walk towards the side hall.

Countless questions in my heart suddenly came to my heart under the influence of alcohol, I hurriedly stood up, chased after me tremblingly, and called Gu Yixin.

Zhang Xuefeng turned his head and glared at me fiercely, Gu Yixin motioned for him to go first, Zhang Xuefeng hesitated, but left on his own.

Gu Yixin looked at me, and under the effect of fine wine, her cheeks were slightly red, like morning glow, like peach blossoms. She said, "Say it." ”

My mind was groggy and chaotic, and I felt that there were countless questions, but I couldn't find a single incision, and I asked thoughtlessly, "How did you get involved?" This...... What the hell is going on? ”

Gu Yixin smiled, stepped forward, kissed me on the face, and then whispered in my ear: "In the future, I will explain to you." ”
