Chen Yingying will knit sweaters and tie the soles of her shoes on weekdays, after all, she is an orphan girl, and she can't do heavy work, so she can only find another way to support herself. Chen Yingying also knew that I would go to her house to play after the market, so every time I went to the market, I would buy some snacks and bring them back, naturally they were prepared for me, and then give me three or five cents or two yuan a piece as pocket money, which is already a lot of money in my eyes, for which my grandfather often scolded me, saying that Chen Yingying herself is not easy and can't ask for her things.

After that, my grandfather gave me his savings, which was a huge amount of money in my eyes, but Yuan Shouyi now told me that this money can't be solved by a single meal, which makes me shocked.

Grandpa thought that a few hundred yuan could be used for them to live well outside, but not long after his father wrote back, saying that he couldn't even afford to live outside for a few hundred yuan, so he could only sleep on the bench outside, and then he could afford to live in a house, but he couldn't afford to eat meat.

I used to think it was alarmist, but now it seems that I am out of touch with the world, and the more beautiful things often hide many risks.

I looked at Yuan Shouyi, "Didn't you take back the money for the credit?" ”

Yuan Shou smiled and said, "There are only a few knives in total, and they are not worth much." "Yuan Shouyi then asked us to find a place to wait for him, and he went to look for money.

The two of us then stood in a bustling square and waited, because Chen Yingying and Huang Yunqiu were not alive, and there were very few people who could see them, and even if they did, they wouldn't feel strange.

The three of them waited for about half an hour, Yuan Shouyi came over with a piece of yellow cloth, came to us, spread the yellow cloth on the ground, and then stood on the ground, the yellow cloth was a hexagram plate with ink not dry, and the hexagram plate was written on one side of the hexagram plate, 'Measure good fortune and evil, calculate good fortune and misfortune', and then he took out six copper coins from his body and put them on the hexagram plate, and then stood like this.

I asked him, "What are you doing?" ”

Yuan Shouyi, "Fortune tellers make money, otherwise we will all starve to death if we can't wait to go to Qinglongyan." ”

I sighed, I didn't need to do anything anyway, just stand next to me, I thought that with Yuan Shouyi's ability, there would be countless people looking for him to tell the hexagram, but after standing for a while, people passing by didn't even look at it.

We all frowned and looked at Yuan Shouyi, Yuan Shouyi smiled embarrassedly, "Atheism is believed outside, only older people believe in these, and the people who are wandering around at this point are all young people, and there is no way." ”

I said quietly, "You use the method of recruiting the elderly to attract young people, no one will want to count, grandpa told me before, adults care about food, clothing, housing and transportation, young people care about eating, drinking and having fun, you have to use the method of recruiting young people." ”

I had no intention of saying a word, but Yuan Shou stared at me a few times when he heard it, and then immediately took out the pen and ink he carried with him, squatted down and wrote a word 'bet' on the yellow cloth, crossed out the previous sentence, and then put a stack of yellow table paper on the hexagram plate.

Not long after I finished writing, someone came over, looked at the hexagram and interrogated Yuan Shouyi, "What are you gambling on?" ”

Yuan Shou smiled and said, "You write, I will test the identity deeds, whether it is your identity deeds or the identity deeds of the person you want to ask, by the way, you give me money, and I will give you money if you lose." ”

As soon as I heard this, many people immediately gathered around and discussed the price, and soon a young man in his twenties stepped forward and picked up a brush and wrote the word 'Li'.

After writing, he looked at Yuan Shou and smiled, "Old man, what kind of identity do you calculate for me?" ”

I said in my heart that fortune telling can't be so powerful, right, you can calculate other people's identities and deeds by writing a word? Anyway, I don't plan to take out the money on me, otherwise I will really starve to death. 【】

Yuan Shou glanced at this word a few times, and then looked up at the young man, the onlookers were waiting for a strange look, and when they saw that Yuan Shou didn't speak for a long time, they thought he couldn't figure it out, and laughed.

After about a minute and a half, Yuan Shouyi said, "You are a scholar, did you just take the school entrance examination this year?" ”

The man was stunned, "How do you know?" ”

Yuan Shouyi, "When you write, there happens to be a person standing next to you, and the person plus one is a single digit, saying that your status is high, at your age, only reading can you be promoted, am I right?" ”

The young man was amazed and nodded in response, "Yes, yes, it's really a god." Without complaint, he gave Yuan Shouyi the money.

Some of the people around were convinced, some were not convinced, and after a while, a young man about twenty-seven or eighteen years old stepped forward, picked up a pen and wrote down the word 'melon', and looked at Yuan Shouyi with a smile on his face after writing, "I won't let you guess my identity and deeds, I will let you guess my father's deeds, I don't believe you can guess right." ”

We looked at Yuan Shouyi, the head of state has been staring at this young man, I found the clue, I am afraid that he is not measuring words at all, but looking at the face of fortune telling, when the time comes, as long as it is related to this word, with Yuan Shouyi's ability, such a bet is simply a sure win.

Huang Yunqiu also saw that Yuan Shouyi said that he was measuring words, but he was actually facing each other, smiling but not speaking.

Yuan Shou looked at it for a while, and the young man said, "If you can't figure it out, forget it." ”

Yuan Shouyi, "Your father has died, hasn't he?" ”

The onlookers were a little surprised, and said that this old man couldn't speak, and others tested words, especially to test their own father, where could they say that other people's father had died.

But the young man froze, "Yes, he died last month, how do you know?" ”

When they heard it, everyone was even more surprised, but this young man was not kind, and he used a dead person to test him, didn't it make it clear that he wanted to trick people.

Yuan Shouyi, "You wrote a melon character and asked your father about his deeds as a son, this is a 'lonely' word, which means that your father is more auspicious and less auspicious, and seeing you with a depressed face, it means that your family has just had a funeral not long ago, and I conclude that your father has passed away." ”

The young man was convinced, and gave the money again.

Since then, several people have wanted to give it a try, every word has been measured by Yuan Shouyi, this night made a lot of money, Yuan Shouyi is not greedy, when he was about to close the stall and take us away, but there was a woman in her twenties who stood in front of the hexagram plate, bent down and held down the hexagram plate, and did not let Yuan Shouyi put it away.

This man is good-looking, and his clothes are quite gorgeous, and he thinks he is a rich man.

We didn't see why, Yuan Shouyi and Huang Yunqiu frowned when they saw this woman.

The woman also wrote the word 'Li' with a pen, and then raised her head and asked Yuan Shouyi, "You calculate my identity, and then calculate what I have experienced." ”

Yuan Shouyi stared at the woman, looked at it for a long time, and asked, "Do you really want me to count?" ”

The woman smiled slightly, "Forget it." ”

Yuan Shouyi hummed, stared at the woman for a while, and said, "Then take a step to speak." Yuan Shouyi turned around as he spoke, and the woman also followed, and when he reached a quieter place, Yuan Shouyi said, "You are dead, but you are a wandering ghost, aren't you?" ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be shocked, this woman obviously had three fires on her head, and I couldn't tell that she was a ghost.

But the woman was not surprised, and nodded, "Yes, you calculate how I died." ”

Yuan Shouyi, "You drowned, when you were writing, there happened to be a person next to you carrying water, and the water was a 'weeping' word, combined with the words you wrote, you can naturally guess the cause of your death." ”

After hearing this, the woman looked back, and there was really a person standing and watching next to her writing just now with a bottle of water, her face changed slightly, and she said, "You can calculate my identity again." ”

Yuan Shouyi, "I see that you are vigorous and powerful when you write, and now there are very few people who can write with a brush, most of them are people who learn occult arts, or specialize in calligraphy, and people who learn metaphysics need to draw talismans all year round, and the way of writing talismans is different from calligraphy, and your writing method is exactly the way of writing talismans, so you have a great relationship with metamagic." ”

The woman was no longer as cold as before, frowned at Yuan Shouyi, and continued to test him, "There are Fangshi, Taoists, Warlocks, as well as folk Duangong and Shenwu who know occultism, you only guessed that I know mysticism, but you didn't guess my specific identity." ”

Yuan Shouyi smiled, "Most of the Fang Shi inherited from the Dan Dao, and now they are almost extinct, you are not a Fang Shi; Taoist priests have requirements for clothing and dress, and you don't meet them, so you are not a Taoist priest; Duangong Goddess is alone, and although you are dead, you have three fake fires on your head, which requires others to help you do it, so you are not Duangong Goddess, you are a folk warlock! ”

The woman was stunned when she heard this, obviously all of them were said by Yuan Shouyi.

However, Yuan Shouyi did not stop, "Warlocks do not abide by the rules of Taoism, they can start a family, and the mystics they have learned will be passed down from generation to generation, and there will be a situation where the whole family will be able to do mystics, and over time a warlock family will be formed, most of these families are relatively wealthy, and you should be a member of the warlock family depending on how you dress." If you know how to do mysticism, it's unlikely that you'll be drowned, unless you encounter something you can't resist, as far as I know, the only one who can drown a warlock in this neighborhood is the 'Qinglong Weir', so you drowned in the Qinglong Weir. ”
