Chapter 451: Calculation
I hadn't gone far from the gate of the Thirteen Societies when I felt something following me behind me, and I jerked my head back, and a yellow skin followed me.
The yellow skin had already cultivated into a human form, but this human form was too stumbling, with sparse hair on the top of his head, a sharp-beaked monkey cheek face, and two mustaches shrugging on both sides of his mouth. The more I look at it, the more it looks like a yellow skin.
"What are you doing with me?" I said.
The little old man came to me and said with a smile, "You don't know me, you just ...... inside."
I immediately understood that this yellow skin was the old man Xiao's Baojia Immortal.
Being able to cultivate a human form shows that the cultivation of this yellow-skinned man is not low, and I can be regarded as knowing why Old Man Xiao dared to stand up.
"Isn't the matter in there already over, do you still want to try it with me?" I said lightly.
"No, no, I don't dare to do anything with Mr., I just want to follow Mr. in the future and serve Mr." The little old man said very earnestly.
I hurriedly waved my hand, "It's a new society now, and you don't want to serve people anymore, so you should go where you want." ”
I don't want to take this yellow skin with me, his appearance is really uncomfortable to look at. Moreover, this is the first time I have met him today, and who knows what he has in mind.
Hearing me say this, the little old man did not get angry and did not leave, and continued, "Sir, don't you wonder why I have to follow you? ”
"If you want to say it, just say, don't sell it here, I'm also very busy." I said it directly.
The little old man smiled awkwardly, "Because I feel something different in my husband, my husband will definitely be a person who can enter the Tao in the future, and I also want to follow the light." ”
I have never thought about entering the Dao, it is not an easy task, when Ye Tian entered the Dao, there were nine thunder punishments in the sky, each of which could kill people, Rao is that he made a lot of preparations in advance, if I didn't make a move, he wouldn't have been able to enter at all. I don't have the stuff he saved to rely on.
Besides, with my current cultivation, even if I want to enter the Dao in the future, it will be a few decades later, and it is not something I should consider at all now.
"Are you finished, I'm leaving." With that, I walked straight ahead.
The little old man didn't follow this time, but when I turned, out of the corner of my eye, I saw that he was still standing there looking at me.
I didn't even have money for dinner, so I scolded the old man Zhuge in my heart for being stingy and not borrowing a hundred yuan, while thinking about how to earn some money for eating.
In the end, I could only find a place with a lot of people to tell people to tell the hexagram, when I left Huilongguan, in order to make a living, wasn't it just to set up a stall for people to tell the hexagram.
I inquired with a few people on the road, and they pointed me to a way, saying that there was a place in the north of the city, and that place had a fortune teller and a looker, and asked me to go and have a look.
Following the instructions of passers-by, I arrived at the place, which was a very lively street, with shops on both sides of the street, and stalls on both sides of the street to buy small items and artists. I didn't go far and I really saw a fortune teller, and it was an old man. The old man sat on the horse with his eyes squinted, as if he were asleep.
I didn't set up a stall next to the old man, there was not much wealth there, and this old man was far worse than the old man I met in the provincial capital before.
I walked about a hundred meters and came to an old man with an erhu. The old man was wiping his erhu with a deerskin cloth at the moment.
"Hello, uncle." Said with a grin.
When the old man heard someone talking, he raised his head, looked at me and said, "Young man, do you want to listen to erhu, you can order a tune, a song costs five yuan, it's not expensive." ”
I couldn't help but smile embarrassedly, "Uncle, I'm sorry, I want to set up a stall next to you." ”
"You're setting up a stall to sell things?" The old man said.
"No, I'll tell people hexagrams." I said.
The old man gave me a lot of advice, and persuaded him, "Young man, I didn't hit you, you should have seen it on the way here, the old Xu Tou who told people fortunes in front of him hadn't seen Zhang for a month, you see that this place is full of people, and now there are a few people who believe in that." ”
"I see that you are young, it is better to find a job, do you see the restaurant over there, recruit waiters to take care of food and housing, and you can give 2,000 a month, not better than you doing this."
"Uncle, I'm used to being lazy, and I can't do the work of being restrained." I said with a smile, I naturally knew that the old man also had good intentions.
"In that case, you can put it if you want." As the old man spoke, he moved Mazar to the side to make my side a little more spacious.
I smiled at the old man as a sign of gratitude.
After writing the word fortune-telling on the ground with a branch, I saw that the old man was fine, so I chatted with the old man.
The old man's surname is Zhao, and he is a local. When he was young, he played erhu in a troupe, but later the troupe dispersed, and he had no livelihood so he set up such a stall here.
"Sometimes when I meet a rich person, I play a song for someone, and the other party will give more if it sounds good, and once I do more, the person will give a tip of 500 yuan. However, such cases are relatively rare, and they don't happen ten times a year, and they can barely eat enough in a day in normal times. Old Zhao said.
As the old man spoke, he wiped his erhu with a deerskin cloth. But when he spoke, I looked at his face from time to time, how I felt that this old man was a little unsimple, but I couldn't see anything.
I kept an eye on my heart and hid my cultivation.
The two of them chatted for a while, and a man came over, he came to the old man, took out five yuan and threw it into the box in front of the old man.
"Uncle Zhao, I'm in good luck today, let's have a little New Year's greeting." The man said.
Uncle Zhao put the erhu on his lap, and with a movement of his fingers, the voice came out of the erhu.
"It's the New Year in the first month, and it's ...... New Year."
I have to say, this old man's skills in playing erhu are quite high, and I don't know much about music, but I think it's very good.
After a small New Year's greeting, the man took out another five yuan and ordered a song.
After the song was finished, the man was just about to leave, and Old Man Zhao said, "Zhou Yue, this young man is a divination for people, and his calculation is quite accurate." You let him calculate your fortune for you. ”
After listening to Old Man Zhao, the man who called Zhou Yue glanced at me, and said with some disbelief, "Uncle Zhao, don't pit me, I used to find Lao Xu Tou to calculate a hexagram, and Lao Xu Tou said that I was lucky the next day, but I lost thousands of yuan in one day." Old Xu Tou is so old that he is unreliable, you ......"
I didn't expect that Old Man Zhao would introduce me to business, hearing Zhou Yue say this, I gritted my teeth and smiled, "The world doesn't believe in cause and effect in fate, and the husband and wife are separated." ”
After I finished saying this, Zhou Yue's steps stopped, looked at me stunned and said, "What were you talking about just now?" ”
"It's okay, big brother, since you don't count, you can do it yourself." I said with a smile.
Zhou Yue didn't leave, looked at me and said, "No, what did you just say about husband and wife Lao Yan Shuangfei, are you talking about me." ”
I laughed, "I can see something from my face, if you want to listen, I'll talk to you, if you don't want to listen, I'll talk nonsense." ”
Zhou Yue squatted directly in front of me, "Tell me what you mean just now." ”
I said, "If I'm not mistaken, your daughter-in-law only returned to her parents' house a few days ago, and he insists on divorcing you. ”
Hearing my words, Zhou Yue looked at me with a very complicated gaze, and said for a while, "How do you know?" ”
"Didn't I just say it, I can see it from your face."
"Since you can see it, then tell me if my daughter-in-law will divorce me." Zhou Yue sighed and said.
"Whether this can be divorced or not, it depends on you, when you are fine, you like to play with people after work, and your daughter-in-law especially hates you playing this."
"Your left cheekbone is high, your right is slightly shorter, and the location of your conjugal palace is extremely dark, this is the ...... of being without a wife for the rest of your life."
I was talking endlessly, Zhou Yue's face was getting more and more ugly, and he didn't seem to want to divorce his daughter-in-law.
"Sir, you have to help me, I don't want to divorce my daughter-in-law, but this time he is determined to divorce me, I came to the door several times to beg her, but he didn't come back with me, I even knelt down for him, still no." Zhou Yue pleaded.
Judging from Zhou Yue's physiognomy, although his conjugal palace is dim, it is not completely impossible.
"In fact, the solution is very simple, as long as you quit this hobby, your daughter-in-law will naturally come back." I said.
Zhou Yue had a bitter look on his face, "I also want to quit, but I just can't control my hands, once I become addicted, the whole person is like a ghost." ”
I took out a talisman from my body, "This is a meditation talisman, you can carry it with you at all times, so that your mind can stay awake at all times." ”
Zhou Yue took the rune paper in my hand and said, "Does it really work?" ”
"This little brother's hexagram is so accurate, how can it not work." Old man Zhao said on the side.
Hearing Lao Zhao Tou say this, Zhou Yue put away his things, took out a hundred-yuan bill directly from his body, and said with some hesitation, "I don't know if this money is enough?" ”
"It's okay to give as much as you want." I said.
Zhou Yue took the things and left, I looked at the hundred-yuan bill in my hand, and said to the old man Zhao, "Uncle Zhao, it's not too early now, you brought me this business, I invite you to drink." ”
Old man Zhao said with a smile, "Okay, it's not interesting for my old man to go back alone." It's very expensive to go to a restaurant to drink, you are going to be alone, go to my house, and if you drink too much, you will stay at my house. ”
I always feel that there seems to be something behind this old man Zhao, but I can't see it, he is now inviting me to his house, and I have no excuses, I just want to go over and have a look.
Old man Zhao packed up his things, put the erhu on his back, and the two of them left the place.
The old man's home is in a bungalow in the old city, the bungalow here is a little dilapidated, it seems that it should be a long time, and the roads are full of potholes.
"The house here is not short of years, right?" I said.
"It's going to be decades." Old man Zhao said.
Under the leadership of Old Man Zhao, we stopped in front of an old house. The courtyard wall of this house is very high, and the courtyard wall is made of fine green bricks, which can be seen that it must have cost a lot of money to build this house, because in those days, green bricks were very luxurious building materials.
The fence is very high, almost more than two meters, and the gatehouse is about the same height as the courtyard wall. There were also two stone lions in the doorway, and the lions were carved very hideously, and their protruding eyes seemed to be staring at everyone who passed by.
There is also a sign hanging on the gatehouse, on which are written the four big characters of the old house of the Yang family.
"Uncle Zhao, is this your home?" I couldn't help asking.
I never thought that Lao Zhao Tou would live in such a place.
"This is my family's ancestral home, which was built by my father." Old man Zhao said.
In the habit of it, I looked around, and my eyes not only moved, because there seemed to be a problem with the feng shui near the house, but the problem didn't see anything.
I didn't use my cultivation to sense it, and I sensed a cool air, but that cool air was not that kind of yin energy. This is a little strange, and I can't help but add two points of caution.
Old man Zhao pushed the gate open, made a gesture of please, and I went directly into the courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, I frowned even more, because the courtyard was very strangely built, and the general courtyard is a spacious courtyard after entering the door, but here we are above the ceiling, which blocks the moonlight.
It should have seen that I showed a strange expression, and the old man Zhao said, "After my father built this house, there were a series of accidents in my family, first my grandmother died inexplicably, and then my mother was bedridden, and then I was also sick, and my father invited a doctor to come over, and I couldn't see it well." Later, my father invited a Mr. Yin and Yang, and Mr. Yin and Yang said that the feng shui of my house was in conflict with me, and he said that he would build this place like this. Old man Zhao said.
I nodded, I don't believe Old Man Zhao's words at all now. However, I didn't say anything, and followed him into the house.
It's normal in the room, but it's a little dark.
Old man Zhao turned on the electric light, the house lit up this time, we put the food we bought on the table, old man Zhao went to the kitchen and brought the dishes and chopsticks, poured out all the food, the two sat down facing each other, and began to eat.
I bought the food and wine, so I ate it with confidence.
I have to say that this old man Zhao is really good at drinking, and after a while, the two of us drank a bottle of 50-degree liquor, and then opened another bottle.
After the two of them drank two bottles of liquor, Old Man Zhao said, "I haven't drunk so much for several years, little brother, let's forget about the New Year." ”
"Yes, yes, forget the New Year." I deliberately pretended to be drunk.
"Why don't we have some more, I still have a good bottle of wine in my cabinet." Old man Zhao said.
"Drink, drink......" I said, but my head was deliberately lying on the table.
I can see that this old man Zhao has actually been pouring me wine all the time when he is eating, and his intention is obviously to get me drunk on purpose. I wanted to see what he wanted to do, so I took the opportunity to pretend to be drunk.
"Little brother, wake up, wake up. Sleepy and go to bed. "Old man Zhao pulled me twice.
I didn't move, and deliberately snored.
I heard Old Man Zhao say coldly, "I thought you were a capable person, but I didn't expect it to be like this." ”
