Chapter 10 Fortune Teller

Just stop and go, a master and a servant have seen almost every corner of the city, and when the night market gradually comes to an end, Qiu Xin beckoned Xiaobai to go back, at the mouth of an alley, he saw a stall in front of a long queue, business is very good, other stalls have begun to close the stall, and this stall is overcrowded, so he is very curious, his heart is okay anyway, it is better to go over and take a look, so he stepped forward to take a look.

I saw two bamboo poles standing on both sides of the stall, on which were written in cloth:

The five fingers count all the things in the world, and one hexagram plots to determine the ancient wonders

It turned out to be a Xiangshi, Qiu Xin also saw this kind of fortune teller in the book, but basically they are all cheating people money, nonsense, most people just spend money to buy peace of mind, but like today, it is rare to boast so much, fortune tellers are endless, but it is very weird, this Xiangshi looks fairy, caressing his beard, smiling, all the people who have finished the fortune telling are satisfied and left, nodding and thanking, it seems that this Taoist priest does have some real skills.

However, these have nothing to do with him, and this person can't be counted as the good fortune and misfortune of going to Mount Tai here, so he was about to turn around and leave, at this moment, the words suddenly came from his ears, "This little brother, please stay." But it was the priest who spoke, and everyone around him looked at him.

"Dao Chief, what's the matter?" Qiu Xin stopped, turned around and walked to the table.

"I think my little brother is very close to me, can you let me tell you a fortune. As he spoke, he opened the fan and saw four big characters written on it, "Xiaogu Tongjin", and he was looking at himself with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not interested in fortune-telling and divination, I only care about the things in front of me, and the fortune-telling is still over. With that, he clasped his hands into fists and turned to leave.

I heard the Taoist priest say loudly, "Sixteen years alone, when Mount Tai is looking for relatives." Qiu Xin turned his head abruptly and looked at the man with a solemn face.

"Forgive the boy for not knowing Taishan, dare to ask the question, where did you know these things?"

"I'll just say that you have a relationship with me, now you can be trusted, sit down first, let me make a divination for you, these things, we will talk about these things later. Then he said to the people who were waiting for the fortune teller, "I have a guest today, and you will come back tomorrow." After speaking, he made a gesture of invitation to Qiu Xin and motioned for him to sit down.

Those who were waiting were not angry because of Qiu Xin's troubles, they just looked at him curiously, and then they went home, and the prosperity of the empty street was scattered, and only the two of them were left.

Qiu Xin moved to the table, sat on the chair, and heard the Taoist priest say, "Draw lots or divination?" Qiu Xin didn't know anything about this matter, so he casually said a divination, only to see the man take out a bag of things from under the table, and after opening it, he found that it was nine pieces of tortoise shells, neatly stacked in his hands, probably for a long time, the surface of the tortoise shells were ground very smooth, and after he finished reciting an obscure incantation, he threw the tortoise shells in his hand into the air.

I saw that the nine pieces of tortoise shell fell neatly on the table, just forming a gossip pattern, and the remaining piece fell steadily in the center, as if it was a pattern made by someone's heart, quite mysterious, Xiangshi looked at the pattern on the table, and then looked at Qiu Xin, his expression changed in a row, and finally said, "I can't imagine that I will meet this kind of ancient hexagram twice in my lifetime, and it is not in vain." ”

Qiu Xin didn't know anything about this, so he asked, "What's wrong with this hexagram?"

"There is nothing unusual about the hexagram, but this hexagram is very rare, I have been a fortune teller all my life, and I have only met one person who has obtained this hexagram, and there are two different sayings about this hexagram, do you want to hear it?"

"I also ask the Taoist chief to give me some advice. ”

"Ordinary people divination, these nine pieces of turtle pieces are either disorganized, or the gossip is lacking, and this kind of Qiankun gossip is complete, indicating that the divination person has a smooth life, a peaceful family, if he is an official, all the way to the sky, rising every day, if he is born in the royal family, then Jackie Chan becomes a phoenix, is the image of the emperor, if it is a person who reads, it must be a person who is a scholar, he must be able to learn more martial arts, and win the world, so explained, can you understand?"

"Since this hexagram is very complete, isn't it a good omen, then what is the second explanation that Mr. said?"

"The ancients had a saying, too much profit is a loss, or the pole Tailai, this hexagram is all complete, it seems to be a good omen, but it is actually a sign of great evil, one wrong step, one wrong step, the person who gets this hexagram is doomed. ”

The words of the Taoist priest set off a storm in Qiu Xin's heart, if in normal times, he would definitely not believe this, but this Taoist priest can tell his own origin and whereabouts in one sentence, presumably it is a hermit master, so he has to believe it, but there are still doubts in his heart, his future is unknown, how can he conclude that it is a great omen of great evil just by a hexagram, so he asked, "Since the two statements are completely different, how do you know whether it is good luck or evil, disaster or blessing?"

"Good luck and evil are determined by heaven, and good and bad are dependent on each other, the two sayings seem to be different, but in fact there is a hidden mystery, whether it is a blessing or a curse or a good fortune or a bad luck can not be determined by my mouth, but God has the virtue of a good life, leaving a glimmer of life, fortune tellers can only show good luck and evil, how to choose can only depend on yourself, life and death are all in your thoughts. ”

The words of the Taoist priest are exquisite, implying heavenly principles, listening to Qiu Xin's heart only panicked, but there is still room for his own choice, that is, there is still a place to maneuver, no one can say the road in the future, thinking too much will not help, can only deal with the things in front of him first, after all, living in the present is the most important thing, and the future can only take one step at a time, although he comforted himself so much, he still secretly remembered the words of the Taoist priest.

So he continued to ask, "There is still something unclear below, and I hope that the Taoist chief will give me some advice." ”

"You want to ask how I learned about your origins?"

"Exactly. ”

"Because of the half of the jade pendant on your waist, this jade pendant is the treasure of the Tianshan Mountains, the only one in the world, can not be faked, sixteen years ago I was a person to tell a hexagram, that person claimed to be Taishan people, the waist also wears the same jade pendant as you, and he is holding a baby boy in his arms, counting the time should also be your age, the baby boy must be you, and the pet around you is the Tianshan Snow Embarrassment, presumably you are from the northwest to this place, must be going to Mount Tai, as for whether to visit relatives, it is completely my nonsense. ”

"I see, thank you to the Taoist for solving Qiu Xin's doubts, Qiu Xin's identity is also expected to be mentioned by the Taoist Wan Mo in front of outsiders, Qiu Xin thanked him again. With that, he got up and saluted with his fists and left the stall.

After Qiu Xin left, the Taoist priest looked in the direction Qiu Xin left and said to himself, "What a poor child." After speaking, he looked up at the sky, at this time the moon and stars were scarce, and the night was just right.

The road in the city is winding, and when I came out, I only looked at the night view on the street, but I forgot the route, but fortunately Xiaobai recognized the road, and returned to Feifu by moonlight.

When she returned to the room, but there were still bursts of light in the opposite room, Qiu Xin remembered that during the day, Miss Fei said that it was her room, and she didn't think much about lighting the oil lamp and preparing to meditate and practice, at this moment, Fei Linglong's voice came from outside the house.

"Did Childe sleep?"

"Not yet, I don't know if the girl is here, but what's the matter?"

After waiting for a half and not replying, Qiu Xin felt strange in his heart, as if the person had left, so he got up and opened the door, only to see that the woman was dressed in plain clothes, and was standing in front of the door at a loss. ”

"Linglong sees that the child's pet is very cute, I don't know if I can, can I let it go to sleep in my room?" Fei Linglong was already flushed after saying these words, very charming, she was raised by her parents in the boudoir since she was a child, and she was very pampered, where did she mention such a request to others, she was already shy.

"......" Qiu Xin was speechless for a while, turned to look at Xiao Bai, I didn't think that this guy was already eager to try, just to say goodbye to the master, and was about to follow, seeing this, Qiu Xin asked angrily, "Xiao Bai, are you willing to sleep with this girl?" Where is the reason not to go, Xiao Bai couldn't help nodding, his eyes were full of color.

When Qiu Xin saw it, he cursed secretly, how could he do such a scourge with this pervert, so he said casually, "Since it is willing to follow you, then let it go, but remember to bring it to my room tomorrow morning to bleed." Speaking of the last two words, Qiu Xin deliberately accentuated his tone, but Xiaobai still pretended not to hear it, and just wanted to leave quickly.

Qiu Xin saw Xiaobai's appearance, hurriedly drove it out, said go to bed quickly, and closed the door.

After Xiaobai left, Qiu Xin lost the interest in meditating and practicing, and fell asleep alone.

Nothing happened overnight.

Early the next morning, Qiu Xin only felt that the figure outside the door was shaking, and was also woken up, after dressing and washing, it turned out to be Fei Zhong and the three of them who pushed the door, Fei Linglong was still holding Xiaobai, presumably came to their mouth early in the morning to wait, Qiu Xin said sorry and invited them into the house, ready to take medicine.

After washing Xiaobai's front paws, Fei Zhong took the wine cup containing blood and put it on the table, and Fei Linglong held Xiaobai, at this time it also looked like a spring breeze was unaware, when Qiu Xinyong used to cut its claws, Xiaobai screamed in pain, and the blood was received into the wine cup drop by drop, after it was full, Fei Linglong's face was full of regret, and he wanted to bandage Xiaobai, Qiu Xin said, "Don't worry about it, such a small wound will heal if you don't take care of the tea, don't bother the girl." ”

Xiaobai stopped doing it, kept lifting his front paws, and had no choice but to wrap the wound, cut a sea cucumber, and wagged his tail happily.

In the following month, Xiaobai was tired of being with Miss Fei every day, almost forgetting him as the master, and Qiu Xin had to hand over the work of collecting medicine to the Fei family father and son, and found a secluded place in the house to make up for the homework he had pulled down in the past few days.

Xiaobai's blood does have a miraculous effect, after drinking three cups, Mrs. can open her eyes, and after drinking five cups, she can speak, Qiu Xin saw that Mrs. Fei's situation was no longer in trouble, regardless of the Fei family's thousands of ways to stay, only brought some scattered silver taels, and took Xiaobai on the road.
