Chapter 142 Young man's trigram
Yi Xingchen called Gao Zhugan and Ai Donggua over. When the two of them assassins first, they were lucky. One was on the head and the other was on the tail, so they were not injured by hidden weapons, saving their lives. The fifty subordinates of the Jinyiwei brought by Yi Xingchen also followed the two to guard the head and tail, so no one was injured.
Yi Xingchen told Gao Zhugan and Ai Donggua that he had an important task to complete and asked them to lead the team to guard the governor to Tunzhou. Of course, the two of them did not dare to ask too much and quickly agreed.
Yi Xingchen changed into casual clothes, left the military camp in a carriage, and headed to Jinzhou.
I had nothing to say along the way, and came to Jinzhou City one day.
Yi Xingchen got off the horse, bowed farewell to the Jinyiwei's disguised handlebar style, and walked into Jinzhou City.
He had been to Jinzhou City, and Mei Lengxiang was waiting there in Tang Yiwen's mansion outside the city. He was not in a hurry to see Mei Lengxiang, and was about to go to Jinzhou to explore the situation.
Yi Xingchen found an inn in the center of the city to stay. It was convenient to go to the four cities from here. There were people living on the inn building, and there was a restaurant downstairs, which was convenient for eating, drinking and sleeping, and could also find out the news.
After he settled down, he ordered wine and food in the restaurant downstairs and ate slowly. He didn't hear any useful news after the meal. He thought that this was not a solution, and he needed to find an opportunity to get in touch with the Tianjie Sect.
But where to find the Tianjie Sect? This may be difficult for others, but it is a piece of cake for Yi Xingchen, who has inherited Guiguzi's divine skills. He decided to tell him after he decided to do a fortune.
Now, I washed my hands and stood by the window. After praying silently, I took out a small bag of rice for fortune-telling, picked up three small pieces in a row. I counted the number, added the number of hours, divided by eight and six respectively, and got a hexagram. However, it is the Tianshui Jue Gua. The moving line is in the second line. After being separated, the lower hexagram is the Lihuo Gua, which represents the south, and the upper hexagram is the Xun Wood Gua. It represents the temple, Taoist temple and tower, that is, the hexagram should go to the south to find out the news where there is a temple or Taoist temple and tower, and the hexagram representing the specific target is the Kan Water Gua, which means that there should be water next to the place where the specific information is inquired.
Yi Xingchen understood in his heart. However, if he just kept his hands behind his back, it would be fine for a short time. If he stood for a long time, he would be afraid that he would attract attention. He had to have some cover to wait for the news.
Yi Xingchen turned his eyes and thought about why not set up a fortune teller stall? In that case, wouldn’t it be natural? Besides, there are many people who tell fortunes outside the temple and Taoist temple, but anyone who goes to the Taoist temple has more or less wishes. Many people go to make wishes and fulfill their wishes. After they come out, they will see the fortune teller stall and then calculate the fortune teller to see if their wishes can be realized. This is also a common sense. Therefore, no one will be surprised at the fortune teller stall. It is a natural thing to cover up the truth. Moreover, people from the temples and Taoist temples can hear the news. Moreover, the teachings of the Heavenly Tribulation Sect and the Maitreya Sect actually come from Taoism. Therefore, it is easier to find relevant information in the Taoist temples.
So Yi Xingchen came out and found a ready-made garment shop and bought a pair of white cloth. His own brush and calligraphy were not very good, so he asked a gentleman who was writing a fortune teller to help write a fortune teller sign, and then bought a box and a stool. These were the things he used to tell fortunes with his master in the past, so he understood it very clearly, carried it on his shoulders, and walked towards the south.
People like those who carried flags of fortune telling on the street were very common in ancient times, and no one looked at him curiously. He was just an ordinary pedestrian and would not attract anyone's attention on the street. He was just too young, and he was afraid that no one would come to him to tell fortunes. Of course, this was a good thing, because his main purpose was not to tell fortunes for people, but to use this as a cover to find out the news.
Along the way, I saw Taoist temples and towers, which were consistent with the display of the hexagrams, but they did not have the Kan water displayed in the hexagram just now, so they were not completely consistent. Of course, Yi Xingchen did not stop and continued to move forward.
After about an hour of walking, I almost arrived at the edge of the city. Then I saw a Taoist temple. People coming and going at the entrance of the Taoist temple were lively. I saw a plaque from afar, which read "Xiange Temple". There was a stream in front of the Taoist temple, winding by.
Finally there is water! This is probably the place where the hexagrams are displayed.
Yi Xingchen glanced at the front of the Taoist temple, and there were several stalls with fortune-telling, but they were all in the open space at the entrance of the Taoist temple. He did not go there to join in the fun, but set up a divination stall under a tree on the side of the stream that was about a hundred steps away from the Taoist temple, and then sat down on a stool. From here, you can observe the entire Taoist temple and the surrounding scenes. Although it is not close to the entrance of the Taoist temple, it is not a good port for divination, but it is a good place to observe.
Yi Xingchen sat at the hexagram stall and watched. Until the evening, the sun had set, but no one came to tell him the fortune, nor did he see anything strange. However, Yi Xingchen was not in a hurry. After all, spying on the news is not as simple as being able to capture it, but what is required is patience.
The next morning, Yi Xingchen came to the gate of Xian Pavilion again, and still set up a divination stall under the tree, and then looked at the opposite side lazyly.
After all, he is too young and no one believes that his fortune-telling is effective.
Several curious old ladies asked him with concern why he came out to tell fortunes before he was a grown-up? Of course, Yi Xingchen did not want to tell fortunes for others. For this kind of question, if he wanted to make a sympathetic story, maybe these old ladies would ask him to tell fortunes based on sympathy, which would affect the observation situation. So he deliberately said, "What? Can't you tell fortunes before he became an adult? Which king's law stipulates?"
Of course, his attitude would not make people happy, so the kind-hearted old ladies ignored him, threw him a few glances and left.
This day was spent in vain. No one asked him to tell fortunes, nor did he find anything unusual. He even found no matter what was related to the White Lotus Sect and the Heavenly Tribulation Sect, and he could not hear any relevant statements.
In the evening, he asked the people from the stall next to him to help take care of his stall, and then walked into the Taoist temple to see what was going on inside.
This Taoist temple is quite large. After walking around, I didn’t find anything. It gave people the feeling that it was an ordinary channel view. When the Taoist priest was chanting scriptures or chatting, there was nothing strange about him. The incense burner did not say anything related to the Heavenly Tribulation Sect, which made Yi Xingchen feel a little puzzled. What was going on? Did he calculate it wrong?
It is impossible. Yi Xingchen is not discouraged. He believes that the ancestor’s hexagram will not be wrong, and what he needs is time.
On the third day, he came here to tell fortunes again, but he stayed until the afternoon, but he still found nothing.
At this moment, a young woman came out of the Taoist temple and attracted Yi Xingchen's attention.
The woman was thin, with a garlic and dressed in coarse clothes. Yi Xingchen noticed that she was not because of her appearance, but because after she came out of the Taoist temple, she went to find someone to tell fortunes by following several divination stalls. However, it was obvious that she had no money, and those people shook their heads and waved their hands to do it for her. This attracted Yi Xingchen's attention. It seemed that this person should have something difficult to solve in his heart and wanted others to help her. Judging from her clothes and face, she was afraid that she was a child from a poor family with no money and could not even pay for the fortune-telling money. She was really pitiful.
The girl with a garish face was full of frustration. After slowly crossing the stone bridge, she saw Yi Xingchen sitting on the hexagram stall under the tree. When she saw Yi Xingchen, she was obviously disappointed. Of course, Yi Xingchen knew what she was disappointed. Looking for someone to tell fortunes is like finding someone to see a Chinese doctor, which all depends on experience. In other words, fortune-telling would rather believe the old man. After all, he had rich experience and could calculate accurately. Just like he liked to hire an old Chinese doctor when he was a doctor, he always felt that he was old and experienced and could see accurately. The girl found that she was just a teenager of fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was about the same age as her, so she naturally would not give too much hope. Therefore, she looked disappointed and looked down and wanted to move forward.
Yi Xingchen was determined to tell her a fortune and help her solve the problems, but if she didn't take the initiative, Yi Xingchen would certainly not take the initiative to greet others. What's more, the other party was a girl, and he had more important things to do.
So he watched the woman slowly walk past his detention stall, still looking at the fairy pavilion opposite him.
At this moment, a weak woman's voice suddenly came from his ears: "Banxian, can you tell me a fortune?"
Yi Xingchen hurriedly turned around and saw that it was the girl with a savory appearance just now. She probably felt uneasy when she walked out, so she still wanted to find someone to tell fortunes. Maybe she thought that although she was young, she was going to tell fortunes. Maybe she had some skills, and the charges for such a young age should not be too expensive, so she might be able to pay. So she turned around and came to find herself.
When Yi Xingchen heard him call him a half immortal, he was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that the banner of the fortune telling stall behind him was written on the iron-mouthed half immortal, and the gods were killed. No wonder he wanted to call him a half immortal, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Okay, what do girls want?"
The girl was so happy when she heard Yi Xingchen's words. He had wanted to ask the man to help tell the fortune teller, but the first sentence was five or eight words per divination, and even ten words were asked for ten words. She didn't have that much money, so she waved her hand and asked her to walk away. However, the boy didn't say much money, but asked him directly what he was. This made her feel hope suddenly. However, she was cautious and cautious, trying hard to squeeze out a smile and said, "Brother, I, I only have one penny. Can you help me tell the fortune?"
Yi Xingchen nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, since the girl believes in me, I will tell you a fortune. What are you going to do?" (To be continued)
