Chapter 75: Divination
To tell the truth, when I came to Luoyang alone, I was originally just to return a piece of jade pendant, and I never thought of making a living errand in this prosperous eastern capital, let alone whimsically making a big show in the talented eastern capital.
However, the gods looked at people with their nostrils, maliciously speculated on people and thought too much about people, and really did not take into account the self-esteem of a scholar, so that I could only swallow my anger to live in this strange foreign land, and this anger forced me to be cautious and forbearant, and at the same time I had to improve myself, otherwise whether I could survive or not was a big problem.
No matter which dynasty or generation, strength is always the most advantageous pass to dominate the world.
If there had been no major epidemic in Ezhou, I think I would have worked the road of study according to the established trajectory, and would have a job in Ezhou in the future, so that I would be a scholar in peace and stability, marry a wife and have children, which may be my unpretentious life.
All kinds of experiences in Luoyang have changed the trajectory of my life, my choices, and even my conscience.
I have a hunch that this change will change me dramatically one day, and I just hope I don't lose my heart in the process.
After getting a job as a guest, I now have a full and peaceful life in Taoliu Lane and the Phantom Sword Book Alliance every day.
I know very well that in this place of Taoliu Lane, there is Lu Yao's existence, and the silence is just the darkness before dawn and the tranquility before the storm.
Nowadays, there is one more person in the small courtyard who wants to blow the suona and the horn for me at every turn, and the word tranquility is gradually moving away from me.
What surprised me was that when I came to the small courtyard, the whole courtyard took on a new look, and even the atmosphere was changing.
At the same time, there is also a new look of Yi Diandian himself, after he washed, the vitality of the whole person is bright, no wonder people often say that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles.
At the same time, the sloppy rhubarb in the past has been changed, and after being patiently cleaned, it not only becomes soft and supple, exuding a unique temperament, but also shows a more round and lovely body.
I have only joined the Phantom Sword Book Alliance for three days, and the entire small courtyard has undergone unimaginable huge changes, if I stay here for a little longer, I am afraid that the perception of the entire Taoliu Lane towards us will change dramatically.
On the third day of coming to Taoliu Lane at Yidiandian, he saw Zhang Mazi, who went out early and returned late, and often disappeared during this time.
Zhang Mazi's cultivation has made rapid progress during this time, and I have faintly noticed that his true spirit fluctuations are extremely powerful, and there seem to be signs of breakthroughs, and I haven't heard Lu Yao talk about Zhang Mazi's recent improvement in swordsmanship, probably because the focus of this guy has been on the storyteller recently, and he has no time to care about Zhang Mazi's situation.
"Which of them is your eldest apprentice?"
Yi Diandian asked the dog master's question, I am still in a state of confusion, whether I am the apprentice of the dog master or not, I myself are ambiguous, judging from his attitude towards me, it seems that he is not cultivating as a disciple.
The sun was setting, and the stone table in the small courtyard was rarely full of people, and I looked at everyone a few times, and Zhang Mazi also looked at each other with everyone, probably never thinking about this problem.
In order to alleviate the embarrassment, the dog master coughed lightly: "Cough, I just pointed out the two of them, why do you care which comes first." ”
"And what should I call them?" Yi Diandian thought about it for a while, and said to himself: "They are all junior disciples, and it really doesn't matter which comes first." ”
It may be that he hasn't understood Lu Yaoqi in the past few days, so he asked the dog master curiously: "What about him?" Uncle is also your apprentice? ”
The dog master shook his head, of course, anyone with a discerning eye knew that he had not sold himself to Lu Yao as an entourage.
Who knew that Lu Yao was very uninteresting, and he didn't plan to save even a little face for the dog master, so he directly blurted out the delicate relationship between him and the dog master.
"The relationship between the two of us is master and servant, master, I am the master, and you Luojia Mountain, the third young master, are servants!"
Yi Diandian asked the dog master with his eyes: "Uncle Shi, is what he said true?" ”
The dog master covered his face and didn't speak, and Lu Yao said righteously: "The little master spent three gold ingots, but there is a deed!" ”
Yi Diandian continued to look at the dog master, and he refused to stop when he wanted to see the dog master answer affirmatively.
"This is what the little old man is willing to do, selling himself to help this pockmarked young man buy a coffin to bury his mother, and the deed is written in black and white." Saying that, Lu Yao also pointed to the small courtyard and said: "This courtyard is also mine, and now the four of them, along with Rhubarb, are all working under the command of the young master." ”
Military advisor, vanguard, chief bookkeeper, tiger general, this is the name of the three of us together with Rhubarb, the four of us have no one to refute, who made us cornered, Lu Yao gave us a roof to live on?
Seeing Lu Yao's smug and proud face, Yi Diandian came to Lu Yao and looked up and down for a while, and let out a surprised smacking sound on his mouth, seeing that Lu Yao was at a loss, just when he was covered in hair by the other party, Yi Diandian smiled and asked Lu Yao: "How about Bu Yihexagram?" ”
Lu Yao was stunned, he had only been with the dog master and nephew for only three days, and he probably couldn't understand the other party's heart and temper.
Lu Yao hesitated: "What kind of hexagram for no reason?" ”
"Besides...... Why do you suddenly divinate for me? ”
Yi Diandian's explanation makes people feel far-fetched, but the expression of the speech makes people feel sincere.
"I always feel bad when I eat and drink for nothing here, and I have no money when I secretly go down the mountain, but you can rest assured, I will never try to redeem my uncle."
Lu Yao didn't believe it, but he was happy to cooperate with Yi Diandian, and was suggested to divinate for no reason, this kind of thing is difficult to encounter even if he walks on the street.
I can't help but think, our small courtyard is really a nest of wonders, could it be that Yi Diandian in front of him can be more proficient in divination and astrology than his senior brother Chu Zhaoqi?
I don't look like I'm joking or joking, so I watched quietly, so Zhang Mazi is the same, maybe everyone wants to hear what secrets Yi Diandian can divination?
Yi Diandian took out a few copper plates, I took a closer look, the copper plates are no different from the copper coins regulated by the round sky, but they are not the current currency of the Great Zhou, there are only wonderful patterns on them, and there is no Tongbao imprint.
There are nine copper plates in total, and the number of copper plates used for divination is much higher than that of the blind elephant who makes a living on the streets.
The copper plate in his hand passed through the palm of his left hand, and then suddenly flipped into a graceful rolling straight line, along the back of the tumbling hand, with the change of body shape, from the left hand to the back of the right hand, and then flipped into the right palm.
The whole process went smoothly, and everyone present was stunned and amazed!
Immediately afterwards, Yi Diandian slammed the nine copper coins in his hand on the stone table, and then pushed them out and arranged them neatly in front of us.
There are three patterns of copper plates, which means that there are nine copper plates, three of the same color, and the hexagram in front of me is chaotic and complicated, and before I can understand it, the dog master asked: "Who is strong and who is weak between you and Chu Zhaoqi now?" ”
Yi Diandian patted his chest, and the expression showed that he was certainly better: "In addition to the fact that I can't perceive the disaster of the sun and the moon now, and the disaster of the stars, the number of people's lives can almost calculate what will happen within three days, and there is no last resort." ”
Lu Yao felt that Yi Diandian was a little tricky, and asked him with a bit of playfulness: "What does this hexagram mean?" ”
After Yi Diandian patted and washed, the clothes that he had been wearing for less than a day seemed to be patting the dust on his body, but he was actually observing Lu Yao's complexion and expression.
"Those who are vigorous mourn, there will be a bloody disaster in the near future!"
"Hahaha~~~" Lu Yao laughed and pointed to his cheeks, which were still a little puffy: "My encounter is so obvious, do you still use you for divination?" ”
"It is not a bloody disaster to be stung by a wasp and have a blue nose and swollen face." Yi Diandian deliberately accentuated his tone, and said with a serious face: "My hexagram is very accurate, last month I calculated the number of cubs of female dogs waiting to give birth on the mountain, and deduced that the cubs will die three, sure enough, the day before I went down the mountain, three puppies accidentally slipped off the cliff, fell into a blur of flesh and blood, and finally were picked up by the mountain eagle, and the bones were gone. ”
These words couldn't help but make Lu Yao laugh even more happily, only the dog master and Zhang Mazi looked calm.
I smiled slightly, not as exaggerated as Lu Yao's smile, but I saw that Yi Diandian didn't care about Lu Yao's ridicule, and softly echoed: "My divination copper plate is different from others, it is my original nine-turn astrology method, although with my current level, I can only guess the three-day fortune of ordinary people, but this is enough to remind you to pay attention to your own safety." ”
Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh wildly, and said another sentence while covering his stomach: "Then ask me more, who is the source of my bloody disaster?" ”
Yi Diandian replied earnestly and firmly: "Woman! ”
The dog master looked at his nephew with a determined expression, and began to wonder if he was angry for himself, angry with Lu Yao, or if he was trying to get back the little face he had left for his little uncle in Luojia Mountain.
Zhang Mazi was expressionless throughout the whole process, neither caring nor participating in the-for-tat confrontation between the two, nor caring whether Yi Diandian's divination was accurate or not, and now except for practice, Zhang Mazi couldn't be overly enthusiastic about anything that happened in this courtyard.
"Woman? Which woman? Don't talk about Taoliu Lane, what about the entire Eastern Capital, which woman can make me encounter a bloody disaster? Lu Yao's tone was obviously unbelieving.
The only time we have dealt with many women is the last time in the Luohe Poetry Club, in order to invite many beauties to mess with their hearts and make them go out of the river, we have only dealt with many beauties once, it can't be that the girl in the Red Mansion of Luohe Huafang has a grudge against the events of the day, and gives Lu Yao a hard lesson, right?
First of all, they have to have the opportunity to go ashore, and secondly, they have to have that strength.
Except for the nobles in the Red Mansion in Huafang, I really can't imagine what kind of woman can make Lu Yao, a well-known little demon, see blood, and he can't be a man who is broken and has to be popular, right?
"I know you're not afraid, and it's because you're not afraid that you've been living unpopularly, and you've kept the people around you away, but even so, the calamity of your life can't be changed."
"What you say is reasonable, but I am not the kind of rich man who is arrogant and easy to be bewitched by people's words, otherwise with your confident attitude, I should be rewarded!"
Lu Yao's words have an element of banter, his character is like this, he has always been self-centered, and behind the seemingly heroic and righteous squandering of wealth, there is a heart that is calculating all the time.
Yi Diandian was not in a hurry, he didn't mind our questioning and Lu Yao's ridicule, and his next words surprised everyone present.
"I have two purposes for going down the mountain this time, one is to win back my uncle, and the other is to compete with the mud bodhisattva to see whose astrology is better."
