Chapter 17 Asking for Signatures

There was a young monk in the hall, smiling as he watched the two come in.

Su Xiao asked, "Master, I ask for a signature, do I want money?" ”

"No, the donor only needs to bow sincerely, and then silently recite his name, birthday, and request, and then shake the sticker to wait for the sign to fall."

Su Xiao thanked the monk, and then solemnly knelt down and kowtowed three times to the Buddha statue.

Put your hands together and carefully report your name, birthday, and request.

Finally, happily and expectantly, he picked up the stick holder and shook it.

In this moment, seven or eight sticks came out and fell to the ground one after another.

Suddenly said in a hurry, "Oh, what can I do about this, which one is it?" ”

The young monk smiled and said, "It's okay, count the first one to fall." ”

Then he stepped forward, picked up one of them, and said, "This is it, the poor monk just showed it to the benefactor." ”

Su Xiao was happy again, "That's good, what is written on the sign, can Master help me read it?" ”

The young monk stared at the sign and suddenly frowned slightly.

Then asked Su Xiao, "What is the donor asking for?" ”

"Academics are whether you can be admitted to the ideal university in this college entrance examination."

The young monk's brows furrowed more and more, and he muttered for a second, and after typing a draft, he said, "This sign...... The poor monk said truthfully, if it is for study, this is a sign. ”

Su Xiao suddenly looked disappointed and unhappy, and asked, "What is written on it?" ”

The young monk handed the sign to Su Xiao, and Gu Yun also walked up to take a look when he saw this.

I saw that it was written, "The clouds open without seeing the moon, and the fire does not see the wind." The reeds paint the sandy land, and the clothes hoe the new field. ”

It doesn't look like a good sign.

The young monk explained, "Yunkai does not see the moon, which means that although the clouds have dispersed, there is still no moon coming out, and the fire does not see the wind, which is to borrow the metaphor of Zhuge Liang borrowing the east wind, which refers to the fact that although there is a plan to burn the ship, but the east wind does not come, it cannot be done." The latter sentence of reeds painting sand, everyone knows that the painting on the sand will eventually be smoothed out...... So, the first three sentences are all about one thing, that is, a lot of efforts may be in vain. ”

Su Xiao's face became even more ugly, and he didn't say a word in a dull manner.

The young monk continued, "The last sentence is a bit of a reversal. ”

Su Xiao regained some hope and hurriedly asked, "How do you turn around?" ”

"It should be...... Prepares you to repeat and do it all over again. Maybe after repeating it, there will be a big turnaround. ”

"Repetition?" Su Xiao was even more disappointed, "How can that work!" ”

Su Xiao's mood became more and more depressed, and he bit his lip unconsciously, and there was still a trace of indignation in his eyes.

Gu Yun, who had not spoken on the side, saw Su Xiao's appearance, feeling cute on the one hand, and a little unbearable on the other.

She wanted to be admitted to Coastal University.

After living for so long, Gu Yun knew that although the matter of divination and asking for a sign may not be accurate, there is one thing that is very accurate, that is, it can give people psychological hints, thus affecting people's behavior.

In 636 B.C., he accompanied his long-exiled son Chong'er back to the Jin Dynasty, but when he arrived at the Yellow River, Chong'er suddenly hesitated, worried about whether he would be able to take power and whether he would be killed after returning to China.

So after discussing with the minister Dong Yin, he gave a hexagram to Chong'er. Dong Yin can also say that this hexagram is out of the blue, and he insists that Chong'er will be able to take charge of the Jin Kingdom when he returns to China, so Chong'er's confidence has greatly increased.

After returning to China, he swept away his hesitation and fear, showed strong political self-confidence, swept away all obstacles with a devastating momentum, and finally killed Jin Huaigong and became one of the five tyrants of Jin Wengong.

It can be seen how much psychological suggestion affects people.

The college entrance examination is imminent, no matter how much this hint affects Su Xiao, it will always be negative, so it is necessary to help her eliminate it.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the signature again, thought for a moment, and then stepped forward.

He chuckled and said to the young monk, "Master, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding of this sign. ”

The young monk's face suddenly stiffened slightly, as if a scholar was suddenly said by an ordinary person to be "not good at learning", revealing an unconvinced look.

I couldn't help but say, "Then I don't know what the donor thinks?" ”

Su Xiao also glanced at Gu Yun in surprise, thinking that this guy would still be released?

Gu Yun took the bamboo stick and said with a smile, "Yunkai doesn't see the moon...... When there are no clouds, there are only two situations, one is to see the moon at night, and the other is to see the sun during the day, so the clouds do not see the moon, then the sun must be seen. ”

As soon as these words came out, the young monk's face stiffened even more.

He wanted to refute, but he couldn't think of anything to refute, because what Gu Yun said was common sense!

Su Xiao's face suddenly brightened, and her beautiful eyes gradually brightened again.

Hey, it seems like that's going on!

couldn't help but excitedly leaned over to Gu Yun's side and said, "What else?" ”

Gu Yun continued, "The fire does not see the wind, which means that although the fire is burning, because there is no wind, there are only a few things that can be burned. It means that although there are a few twists and turns, you don't have to be afraid, it will pass soon. This sentence, Ji! ”

Su Xiao couldn't stop nodding, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

"As for the reed painting the sand, this sentence is going to mention an allusion, called 'painting the ground with Ogi', which means reed in ancient times. It is said that Ouyang Xiu's family was poor when he was a child, and his mother used reeds to draw the ground to teach Ouyang Xiu to read, write, and draw. Hardship is hardship, but what happened to Ouyang Xiu later? ”

"I've become a great writer!" Su Xiao said.

"Congratulations, the answer is correct! So this sentence tells you that hard work will definitely pay off, Daji! ”

When Su Xiao heard this, he was already smiling, and his beautiful eyes were bent downward, as beautiful as a crescent moon.

"What about the last sentence?"

She happily reached over with one hand and held the sign, but with the other hand, she was dragging Gu Yun's short sleeves, with the intention of also wanting to take a good look at the sign, but she unconsciously got close to Gu Yun and almost pasted it.

Gu Yun asked a vague fragrance, and couldn't help but chuckle at her, "Buddhism is pure, pay attention to the image." ”

Su Xiao realized that he was so close to Gu Yun, so he quickly retreated some distance, a trace of crimson flew on his face, but he glared at him again.

Then he said, "That's fine, say it." ”

Gu Yun continued, "The last sentence of "Xintian obviously means that you are going to enter a new field to cultivate, and the new field of course refers to the university. Therefore, this sentence is still good. ”

Su Xiao happily clenched his fist and asked, "Then isn't this sign signed?" ”

Gu Yun said seriously, "It's not just signing!" In these four sentences, there are also five elements of dark alloy, wood, water, fire, and earth, which is simply signed! ”

Su Xiao suddenly smiled like a flower and said, "Really, you didn't lie to me, did you?" Then this is a sign-up! ”

Then, she shifted her gaze to the young monk.

His eyes were clearly full of questioning and doubt.

The young monk was already like a sculpture at this time, he only felt that his face was hot, but his mouth was open but he couldn't speak for a long time.

This, this sign can still be solved like this?

So the explanations I gave to those pilgrims were all wrong?

That's not right, that's not what Senior Brother said!

But why is what he said so reasonable and flawless?

He now wants to make a phone call to the senior brother who taught him to unsign and tell him that someone smashed the field, and the scene was very embarrassing!

But after being silent for a while, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a flaw that could save some face.
