Chapter 847: The Master Stays
On top of their donkey cart, a large sign was specially written and hung, and the four big characters of Lingyu Second Division on it were vigorous and powerful. And under these four words, there is a row of small words: Destiny Dao Holy Master, three people are measured for free every day, and the Dharma is only practiced five times.
The meaning of this is very clear, you can calculate the life path for three people for free every day, but each person can only ask one thing. And the total number of fortune tellers in a day does not exceed five.
Walking to a small village, two children playing in Zhuangkou are hopscotch. Chu was interested in seeing it, and asked Xiang Bei to stop and come down, took out two pieces of candy in his pocket and gave them to the two children, and asked what was the name of this village?
The two children ate candy and replied, calling Shangshuitou Village.
Xiang Bei looked around and said that this village is good, the vein of Shunshui is a treasure of feng shui, and there must have been big officials in the village.
Chu took out the poker with pity, shuffled the cards in his hand, and finally pulled out a card of hearts and nodded: "Old man, you are right, there should have been a big official here." ”
Xiang Bei said that he was a civil official and a three-book official.
Chu nodded pityingly.
Xiang Bei really looks at feng shui, and Chu pity is to follow as a nursery. At this time, a woman at the entrance of the village heard their words, took the melon seeds in her hand and ran over, staring at their carriage for a while: "Uncle and aunt, are you a master of destiny? How do you know that there is a big official in our village?"
Xiang Bei's eyes rolled, the compass in his hand turned, and he didn't answer directly whether it was or not, but said: "Woman, you should be the mother of these two children, but it's a pity that you can't read, otherwise this is the morning of the day, the best time to learn, and the easiest time for people to memorize knowledge." You can teach them to learn, not to have fun. ”
The woman's eyes lit up when she heard this: "You are really a life master, and you are so powerful, even I can count if I can't read, and you know that I am the mother of the two of them." ”
Xiang Bei said that it was nothing, it was all a slight skill.
Chu pity was secretly disdainful, as soon as this girl came up, she asked if the two of them were destined to be Daoists, but it was written on the car, and she still had to ask, which was naturally illiterate. Do you still need to ask if you are literate? This doesn't need Xiang Bei to calculate, he can calculate it himself.
The woman took out a cloth bag from her waist, took out two Tianli coins and handed them to Xiang Bei: "Can the master help me do the math?"
Xiang Bei used a cane to push her hand to hand over the money: "The first three calculations of the two of us every day are free, and my husband and wife have not calculated for others today." So we can't ask for this money, you can ask a question and we will answer it for you, but there is only one. ”
"Okay, thank you so much, let me think about it. The woman was very happy, and secretly said that she had met a real master now, and she didn't even want money, and this would definitely not be a liar.
The woman thought about it seriously: "I wonder if I can count it for my husband?"
Xiang Bei said yes, the two of them, since the day of their union, their lives have been connected, and the wife is the husband, and it is not a big problem. But it should not involve celestial chances.
The woman said that she was asking about wealth, asking when her husband would have a windfall, and when would the windfall leave his hands and not invite disaster?
Xiang Bei frowned slightly, his five fingers were counted again and again, and he suddenly looked at the woman: "Your husband has already had a windfall, and he picked it up without hard work." But you still want to ask for money like this, are you fooling me?"
The woman was shocked: "Master, I was wrong, as the master said, the husband has indeed found some money, I want to ask the master if this money can be spent?"
"The reason why you ask this question is because the coins are all 100 coins, which are not available to ordinary people, so you don't dare to spend them, am I right?"
The woman said yes, he was so good that he knew everything.
Xiang Bei told him: "This kind of money can't be used, you actually know who the owner is, you know." Therefore I beseech you to pay it back and avoid calamity. If it is not returned, there will be officers and soldiers who will search for it, which will be a fatal disaster. ”
The woman was gloomy: "Sure enough, Master Xie pointed out, and I will go and pay back the money." ”
The women were not happy, and they didn't want to pay back the money anyone who picked it up.
Xiang Bei nodded: "You have to earn money by yourself, don't think too much." ”
Saying that, he returned to the donkey cart, and Chu pity also looked like he couldn't walk, and climbed up with great difficulty. Xiang Bei waved his whip, and the donkey cart opened the way.
On the way, Chu asked Xiang Bei with pity, did he really calculate those? Cultivators are fierce fortune tellers, but can they be counted together? These are related to the way of fate?
Xiang Bei laughed: "Is this still worth it?" When he opened the cloth bag, I saw that there were hundreds of Tianli coins in it, a peasant woman, where did this kind of coin come from. Then she asked another question, which was naturally his man who had picked up the money. ”
"But how do you know someone she knows?"
"The place where the money was picked up must not be far from the village, otherwise he would not dare to spend it. The road we walked was so remote that the rich people generally didn't go, and that was the official in the village who went home and threw it away. ”
"I'll go, is this a lie?"
"Of course not, I answered all the questions she asked, in fact, her question is nonsense, she knows in her own heart, this money can't be spent, but she is reluctant to pay it back, I say this, I can help her decide to come down, it can be regarded as saving her life. Let's go slowly, people love to be cheap, it's rare to catch up with us two free masters, and she will definitely let her relatives and friends chase us fortune telling. If we want to go to a village, we have to be famous once, and it is not enough to give it alone. ”
Chu said with pity, this is very funny, why didn't I think of playing like this before, how interesting, instruct others to be a magical person.
As the two of them were talking, an old man's voice sounded behind them: "Master, master stays." ”
Xiang Bei pulled the donkey to stop, and saw an old man trotting all the way from a distance, and the old man ran to the two of them panting: "Master, I heard Zhuzi and her daughter-in-law say that there was a master at the entrance of the village, so I chased it out." Can the two masters come home with me?"
Xiang Bei asked him what he wanted to count?
The old man replied: "My daughter-in-law is pregnant, and my family is looking forward to a male baby, can the master help me to see if I am pregnant with a man or a woman?"
Xiang Bei said that this was a happy event, and of course he was willing to go and see it.
The old man asked, is it really free?
Xiang Bei said that there were two free calculations today, and he could be regarded as earning it.
The two followed the old man back to the village and came to the old man's house. The old man invited them into the house, and they saw a woman with a big belly lying on the bed, and a man guarding beside her, feeding the woman soup, and it was obvious that this man was the woman's husband.
Seeing them coming, the man hurriedly got up: "Master, is it a man or a woman, I don't know if it can be counted or not?"
Xiang Bei glanced at the woman on the bed and said, "Boy, and it's two." But I advise you to go to the midwife now, and the joy has appeared, and in half an hour at most, these two children will be born. It's all about this time, what do you still think of me? ”
After Xiang Bei finished speaking, the man was stunned on the spot, and her father slapped him on the head: "What are you still doing in a daze, the master said that he was going to give birth, hurry up." ”
"Eh, I'll go. The man said yes and ran away.
