Lonely Lamp in the Desert Chapter 1 Fortune telling

After being busy, it must be a vacation, and Mazi came back from the grassland for more than a week and didn't do anything, the old grandson's side came and went, and he did a few big deals one after another after recovering from a serious illness, I don't know how much he earned, it seems that it shouldn't be a problem to spend him in the coffin.

Seeing that the two of us are now unemployed vagrants at home, he asked us to go to his store to help continue to work, not only to make a little money, but also to learn some knowledge, why not.

The small shop has not changed much, but the door of the store has been brushed with a layer of red paint by the old grandson in the past few days. I saw that he seemed to be involved in this fortune-telling thing, and I felt that I had recently committed Tai Sui, and I didn't like what I was doing, so I asked him to calculate it for me when he came to inspect the store.

When the old grandson heard that he asked him to help me tell my fortune, he squinted his eyes and smiled: "Where can I calculate my fortune, this is all paid to ask someone to tell me the fortune teller!" ”

I was a little prejudiced against this fortune teller, and I always felt that nine out of ten fortune tellers were cheating, and few of them had real magical powers, so I asked: "Is this fortune teller really that smart?" It can't be just a charlatan, right? ”

The old grandson found the Taishi chair that Mazi loved to sit on before, sat upright, waved his hand with me and said: "This fortune telling, believe in the spirit, if you don't believe in it, it will not work, but you just say me, I was sick to death a few days ago, and I can't do business. ”

Hearing him say this, I also became interested in this fortune teller, and I inquired about the address and prepared to get off work to ask for a hexagram for him to transfer qi. It's not so much about getting off work, in fact, it's just taking advantage of the old grandson to go home for a while, sneaking out and it's over, anyway, he only has a business in this store every three or five days, and just two big businesses came a few days ago, I'm afraid that the business should be cold for a few days recently.

Sure enough, the old grandson sat for a while, and then planned to go back, this person is going to be older, so he prefers to stay at home more, and he is no exception, watching the two of us take care of the store quite safely, patted his ass and left.

I stuck my head out of the crack in the door, made sure that the old grandson was really gone, called up the pockmarked man who was sleeping in the back room, and asked him if he would go to tell a fortune together, and turn around the gas, who expected that the pockmark was woken up by me, got up quite angry, and scolded the mother: "I don't fucking go, where is the fortune teller comfortable to sleep, don't call me if there is this thing in the future, I am the successor of Marxism, don't believe in these!" After saying that, he leaned back and fell asleep.

Seeing that he was "incorrigible", I shook my head and went out on my own. The address that the old grandson wrote to me is very detailed, and it is not too far from the location of our store, and it took half an hour to walk to the "Chengxi Department Store" written by the old grandson, and the fortune teller has his reason for setting up a stall here, the Chengxi Department Store is a place with a large flow of people on our side, and the people who come and go are some uncles and aunts, which also confirms the words of the old grandson: the age is old, and it is not good to believe in fate.

Uncles and aunts are not like young people, they have been educated in orthodox Marxist atheism, so most of them disdain such fortune-telling behavior, and they are different, very superstitious about this, here can not only buy cheap things, but also talk to fortune tellers, so this city west department store has become a "paradise" for aunts and uncles, but young people rarely come here, and my appearance is more abrupt.

According to what the old grandson said, the fortune teller is at the door of the department store in the west of the city, and there are quite a lot of fortune tellers on weekdays. I saw that there were old men and women in their sixties and seventies all around, and their gray hair was dangling in front of me, which made me a little confused, and rubbed my eyes to relieve myself, and went straight to the door of the department store.

The door of the department store is crowded, it is difficult to have a place to stop, I don't know where the fortune teller is, and then walk a few steps to the right, and suddenly see a road flag at the corner above the crowd, which seems to be quite eye-catching, I think this is the fortune teller's stall. With my own vigorous posture, I passed through a group of uncles and aunts, squeezed to the front of the crowd, squeezed too quickly, and accidentally stepped on a gossip plate under my feet, which shocked the fortune teller in front of me and apologized again and again.

Fortunately, the gossip was metal, not so fragile, and it was not damaged in the slightest if he stepped on it, so the fortune teller picked up the gossip, wiped it with his sleeve, and put it back into the distance, and then looked up at me: "The young man is here to tell fortunes, right?" ”

I don't want to tell fortunes, why don't you come to you? Seeing that he was still staring at me, he replied, "Mr. Jiuwen's name, I am fortunate to visit today, can I ask for a hexagram?" ”

I didn't say this, but I amused the fortune teller: "As long as you have money, you can manage enough!" ”

Sure enough, it's a charlatan, and he looks good, and I don't know why the old grandson fell for your way? I thought so in my heart, but since I came, even if it was a hexagram, I pretended to be calm: "There is money, just ask for a way to transit!" ”

The fortune teller glanced at me: "If you do too many things that damage yin morality, can that life still be good?" ”

His words penetrated into my heart like an arrow piercing the heart, there is really such a god in this world, I don't dare to continue to ask, I can only laugh and say: "This so-called prodigal son will not change his money, now he will reform his life and seek a good plan, is it not too late?" ”

The fortune teller picked up the gossip and said: "It's not too late, it's not too late, their Buddhists pay attention to a 'put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground', our Taoist also makes sense, you give me your birthday, and the old Tao will calculate it for you!" ”

I am now convinced of this fortune teller, seeing that he wants my birthday eight characters, I dare not slack off, pick up the pen on the ground and write down my birthday eight characters, this old way is also refreshing, weighing the gossip in my hand, closed my eyes, there are words in my mouth, and it didn't take long to open my eyes and say: "Now hurry up where to come from, where to go back, will be a source of wealth!" ”

When he said this, I was very happy, although most of the fortune tellers were to pick good words to tell customers, coaxing them to be happy to earn them more rewards, but I feel that this old way is by no means an ordinary warlock, since he said it, there is a certain truth, a thousand thanks, give him five yuan as a reward, turn around and run to the antique shop, run back late, miss this fortune.

Ran all the way, half a step did not dare to stop, more than half an hour of the journey did not reach ten minutes I ran back, into the antique shop, I wanted to tell Mazi to quickly clean up the house, a while may have fortune to come, but I pushed the door of this room, did not wait for the opening, I saw a middle-aged man in his forties in the room was talking cordially with Mazi, so that I quickly swallowed the words in my mouth.

When Mazi saw me coming back, he motioned for me to sit down quickly, and said to the middle-aged man: "Boss Li, this is Mr. Xu Kesong Xu, our big shopkeeper!" ”
