Chapter 14: The Blue Coat's Accession to the WTO
When Ji Beichen arrived at Gukou, Mu Xiyao had been rescued by the disciples of the Cangxu faction, and he chose to escape in the face of his former classmates.
Ji Beichen dodged and hid behind the big tree, and couldn't help but say sadly and angrily: "Hehe, she's right, I'm just a waste......"
The long sword was taken off, Ji Beichen collapsed to the ground, and the emotions that had been pent up for many days gradually collapsed, and he closed his eyes weakly and no longer held on.
Everything that had happened in the past few months flashed before his eyes......
Lin Yuanfeng betrayed with the same door, he was seriously injured, his reputation was ruined, Yan Yuezong rescued him, and after that, he was fated to be healed by the ghost doctor mound in Soul Valley.
Now the body and bones have recovered as before, and they act like ordinary people. Coupled with Yan Yuezong's many "cares", the soul loss after the serious injury has also been cured.
In just a few months of experience, Ji Beichen went from a peerless sword cultivator of the First Immortal Gate to a wasted person who couldn't condense his qi, as if he had fallen from the Yaochi Fairyland to the bottom of the cold ice valley, and he actually gritted his teeth and survived, which was really sad and lamentable......
For a short time, Ji Beichen was able to breathe, which was not a compassionate nature, since he was lucky enough to survive in this world, he naturally had no reason to continue to be decadent.
Ji Beichen took a deep breath, clenched the Cangxu Sword again, straightened the blue robe on his body, picked up the Cangxu Sword, and resolutely walked out of the Soul Valley.
Unconsciously, Ji Beichen had been away from the valley for more than half a day, and the surrounding dense forests were gradually thinning, but he didn't know where he was going.
Ji Beichen felt a little tired, so he stopped, found a vacant place, and leaned over to sit on the stone slab in the clearing. With his legs crossed, he raised his palms to concentrate, silently reciting the familiar "Cangxu Dayan Heart Method", and sensing the breath of the dantian with his heart.
When he was young, Ji Beichen opened his eyes, shook his head, sighed lightly and said, "There is really no hope at all!" The sword heart is broken, and there is no other way to even treat the ghost medicine mound, and I am afraid that no one in this world can heal it. ”
Ji Beichen is not a person who likes to be in shape, he has long forgotten the feeling of joy, anger and sorrow since he was a child. Just like the sword trick of the ruins, there is no self and no other, no sorrow and no joy, all emotions are just the expression of mortal desires.
Even after the Great War, he did not shed a single tear. At this time, in the face of the fact that he could no longer build a foundation, he just felt regretful.
"Miss Shen is as true as her predecessor and a disciple of Yan Yuezong, how could she deceive her, she is really an unbeatable character......"
Ji Beichen muttered softly, remembering once again that Yan Yueli knew that he couldn't get married, and he still insisted on going to the Soul Valley, and inadvertently, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up a smile.
Ji Beichen put his hands on the stone slab, supporting his slightly tired body. The rush of the whole night made his current mortal body a little unbearable, and his stomach was also a little empty, and he couldn't help laughing at himself: "It's been a long time, but I have forgotten the taste of hunger." ”
After Ji Beichen entered the Jindan period at the age of sixteen, he began to open the valley and rarely ate. When he was recuperating at the foot of the Nine Tribulation Mountain, he had never been hungry, and now that he had only been away from the valley for half a day, he was already a little tired and hungry.
This made Ji Beichen laugh at himself: "For today's plan, I can only temporarily enter the world, seek food and clothing first, and then make another plan." ”
Ji Beichen had already made up his mind at this time, so he didn't stay longer and set off for Cangzhou City, which was not far from here.
Dongcang has a vast territory, and the realm of mountains and rivers complements the spirit of the gods. Cangzhou City, located in the plain, is rich because of its unique geographical location.
Ji Beichen stood outside Cangzhou City, pinched his fingers, felt the current orientation and luck of Cangzhou City, and felt that it was different from before: "Before the water and behind the mountain, sit in the north and face the south." The Canglan Sea is in front, the Nine Tribulation Mountains are behind, and the Blue Dragon is the Soul Valley, but this White Tiger is ......"
When he went down the mountain to practice, Ji Beichen went to this Cangzhou City. He remembered that his little sister Lu Xinrui, because he was worried that he had secretly followed, and at that time he also met Yan Mingxiu, the younger brother of the master, and his disciple Yan Nianxin.
The four of them stayed in Cangzhou City for a few more days, and Senior Yan forgot to report to the fifth uncle Lu Shenji, and after returning to the mountain, the two were inevitably punished by Uncle Lu.
This time, he was seriously injured and left the mountain for some time, and I don't know what the situation of Qingtan Peak is, and I don't know what Lu Aotian said about him Yan Yueli saving him? Should I send a message back?
Ji Beichen immediately thought that now he was already a "wasted man", his sword heart was broken, he couldn't get married, and there was no hope of returning to the mountain. It seems that it no longer matters what people say about themselves, but it is better to stay in this world.
Thinking about it like this, Ji Beichen was no longer entangled, and his heart calmed down a little. Although he has no true qi in his body, he still has some means of making a living by entering the WTO, and there is no difficulty in surviving.
During his training in the mortal world, he read a lot of books in the mortal world, learned some deduction methods, and the way of diagnosing diseases, which now came in handy.
Originally, sword cultivation originated from the Taoist cultivation of immortals, and he was also half a Taoist. In addition, Ji Beichen is now dressed in a blue robe, with his hair tied, and the Cangxu Sword that hides the sword behind him, and he is dressed as a Taoist cultivator.
Thinking about how to fill his belly, Ji Beichen moved under his feet and strode towards Cangzhou City.
In Cangzhou City, people are moving. I don't know what festival I caught up, and the streets were crowded, so it was not lively. The doors of the shops on both sides of the street are wide open, and people come and go, and the business is very hot.
When Ji Beichen was in the Nine Tribulations Mountain, there were only the head of the mountain and the elders and brothers of the peaks, and they had never seen such a scene, and they were suddenly infected by this joyful atmosphere, and their mood was much better.
Ji Beichen walked around the street at random, but did not see the divination stall. I thought about finding a peer to observe and learn first, but because of the unbearable hunger in his stomach, he had to put away these thoughts.
Ji Beichen immediately entered a pharmacy called Xuanji on the corner of the street, borrowed paper, pencils, tables and stools from the guys, and set up a hexagram stall in front of the pharmacy.
"Hey, where did this come from, it's still a Taoist, it's not allowed!" There was a loud noise from far and near, Ji Beichen didn't expect that as soon as his hexagram stall was set up, business would come to the door.
He followed the sound and looked over, and the person who came was dressed in brocade clothes, and at first glance he was from a rich and noble family, but this person looked extremely ugly.
I only saw that the man had a crooked mouth, hanging triangular eyes, a sunken nose, a hook on the tip of his nose, and a pockmarked face. There is a saying in the face that "if the nose has three bends, the person will be raped", and at first glance, this person is not a good person.
Then look at the man with a knife in his hand, and the knife has a lot of evil on it. Ji Beichen thought to himself, is this person planning to enter the pharmacy?
It stands to reason that the person who came to the pharmacy either came to grab medicine or come to see a doctor, but this person was carrying a knife in his hand, and he was afraid that the person who came was not good.
After Ji Beichen carefully looked at the work of the "triangular eye", the "triangular eye" had already sat down opposite him with his legs crossed and said, "Count a hexagram!" ”
"Triangle Eye" raised his arm, reached into the left cuff with his right hand, dug it out of the sleeve, took out five cents, and slapped it on the hexagram table with a "snap".
Ji Beichen couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he saw that the "Triangle Eye" had already sat down, after all, this was his first transaction. He straightened his robe unhurriedly, cleared his thoughts, sat upright, tightened his throat, and said loudly: "Split the characters or criticize the eight characters?" ”
When the "triangular eye" saw the words of the Taoist priest in front of him, he saw that he was a person who often divined hexagrams, and immediately replied: "Split the words." ”
He immediately threw down a few copper coins, and without looking up to ask questions, he picked up the knife in his hand and rubbed it.
Ordinary people were already frightened into a cold sweat when they saw this posture, but Ji Beichen was not afraid, raised his finger and pointed to the pen and paper on the hexagram table, and motioned to the "triangular eye" to write down the words in his heart.
"Triangle Eyes" looked embarrassed, he couldn't write! Thinking of asking the little Taoist priest on the other side to write for him, he raised his eyes and looked at the opposite side, and he was really surprised.
This little Taoist priest is very handsome!
With fair skin, peach-colored lips, handsome and prominent facial features, and smiling eyes, he is born plump and chic, with a lofty atmosphere, and a dusty appearance.
Facing him with a big knife, the little Taoist priest sat there neither humble nor arrogant. Although he was only wearing a blue robe, he exuded fairy wind and bones all over his body, and he was full of righteousness.
"Triangle Eyes" knows that he looks ugly, even if he is wearing a brocade dress, he seems to be wearing a monkey. Now that he saw Ji Beichen smiling, he only felt that he was "laughing" at himself, and he suddenly became angry.
The tone of "Triangle Eye" immediately turned cold, and he laughed: "Little Taoist, people are drawing words to dismantle, why do you still let people write by themselves, do you understand it or not!" ”
Ji Beichen didn't expect that the "triangular eye" couldn't write, and now he stared at him angrily, very worried that the business in hand would run away.
He hurriedly reassured: "This patron, don't be impatient. In this way, I write on this piece of paper what is in your heart. If I write it wrong, I will compensate you, and if I write it correctly, you can see if you can add two more pennies! ”
Seeing that Ji Beichen was so confident, the "Triangle Eye" became interested in him, and replied loudly: "Okay, don't say two things, I can afford one or two silver masters!" ”
As he spoke, he raised his right hand, pulled his sleeve, and didn't look at the taels of silver that he took out, and slapped it on the table casually.
Ji Beichen saw that "Triangle Eyes" was a bold character, and he didn't say much. Raised his hand to take the pen and paper, wrote the word "knife", and handed it to the "triangular eye" after writing.
"Triangle Eyes" was a little unconvinced, raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Heh, I really made your little Taoist fool right." But it's nothing, I'm holding this knife in my hand, and anyone with a little brain can guess it! How to solve it? ”
This "triangular eye" is a person who can't hold his breath, and the reason why he can't leave the knife today is because the master asked him to go to the Hanging Ji Pharmacy to "invite" people, and asked him to do everything possible to invite people. He didn't come up with a way to do it all the way, and he acted according to his previous methods, and he would have gone in directly with a knife to "please".
Ji Beichen already knew the hexagram well, but he still had to do enough, only to see him calculate in front of the "triangular eye".
He raised his right hand unhurriedly, his fingertips kept touching, thought for a moment, raised his wrist pen, and wrote a delicate "wood" character on the paper, and then said: "Swords and soldiers must prevent harm when they meet, and they may gain advantage when they meet wood." Customers need to be cautious in their actions these days, so they may want to try other methods, such as ......"
"Triangle Eye" hadn't finished listening to Ji Beichen's words, and slapped the table and suddenly realized: "Wood! How could I not have thought of it! Little Taoist, you have helped a lot! ”
I don't know what he remembered, before he could finish listening to the hexagram, and the silver on the table was gone, the monkey jumped up from the stool in a hurry, and ran away with a puff of smoke.
To say that this divination is all about observing words and feelings.
Ji Beichen knew at a glance that this person was here to trouble the Hangji Pharmacy. Coincidentally, this person did not go directly to the pharmacy, but came to ask for a hexagram.
Ji Beichen knew that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy was a good person. Just now when he entered the store to discuss the matter of the hexagram stall, the shopkeeper saw that he was a foreigner without the slightest suspicion, and he was not afraid that he would block his fortune from the hexagram stall in front of the store, but was very enthusiastic to lend him things.
Now that divination can relieve the siege of the pharmacy, how can Ji Beichen not help?
After the "Triangle Eye" left, Ji Beichen's hexagram stall came to several female customers one after another, which was nothing more than a matchmaker and a woman seeking marriage.
They saw that Ji Beichen was outstanding, and several matchmakers didn't care about Ji Beichen's identity as a Taoist priest, and insisted on protecting him from the matchmaker, which made Ji Beichen cry and laugh, and they all refused one by one.
As I saw that the sun was rising in the middle of the day, scorching the earth, the hustle and bustle of the market gradually calmed down. Ji Beichen only felt unbearably thirsty and hungry. Thinking that this day is so poisonous, no one should come to divination, so he got up and collected the hexagram stall, planning to find some food......
