Chapter 2 The Fortune Teller

"It turns out that their business is good!"

"Maybe it's all a scam!" the fat man said with disbelief, then turned to me and said, "My young prince, do you think this old man looks like a reliable person?"

"Whether it's reliable or not, you'll know just by looking at it."

More and more people gathered in front of the old man's shop, and we managed to squeeze in. At this time, the old man was looking at people's palms. After looking at them for a long time, he said: "This boss, your life is very strange. You have been with us since you were young."

You should have been an orphan when you were young. This was your misfortune, but fortunately you have met a noble person. Now you have a happy family, full wings, and children. Now you don't have to worry about the future. You only need to remember one thing.

Don’t overdo anything, and it should make your life worry-free.”

The man who looked like a middle-aged boss nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and casually took out a hundred yuan and handed it to the old man. But the old man was very weird. He tore the hundred yuan into two halves, kept one half for himself and handed the other half to him.

He gave it to the middle-aged man, and then said: "I only know half of the money. I only take half of the money. When you come again next time, either you give me the other half, or I return the other half. If you don't come, you will be treated as a child."

This time I will read your photo for free!"

"What does he mean by this, little prince?" the fat man whispered.

"It means that if his calculation is accurate, the person will come and give him the other half of the money. If he is not accurate, he can come back and get the money back." Monkey explained on the side.

But my understanding was different from his, and I immediately said: "The old man said that he was half-informed, which meant that he was not sure whether his reading was accurate. If it was accurate, next time someone comes, he can use the other half of the money to do the calculation again.

If it is not accurate, next time he will not only do the calculation for free, but will also return the other half of the money."

"Like this? Damn it, then how much money does he make? This old man is so stupid. If he doesn't make money and does this kind of tricks, isn't he making himself miserable?"

Unexpectedly, the old man's ears were very good, and he actually heard the fat man's words, looked over immediately, and said with a smile: "I'm not here to make money, as long as I can have enough to eat, I will be very happy, and we are all doing this."

It’s about competing with God for fate and losing fortune and longevity, not just for myself. Just like me, I am almost 70 this year. If I have no children and no children, I will be satisfied if I can have a coffin after my death."

The fat man curled his lips, obviously not believing the old man's words, and said: "When you say you are fighting against the sky, do you mean that you have revealed too many secrets and will be punished?"

The old man nodded and smiled without saying a word. But the fat man looked at me and said, "How is it? My little prince, most magicians will say this when they are bluffing people. This makes them look very mysterious and makes people think that he is very capable."

It’s gone. I’ve never believed in any secrets.”

I smiled and nodded, maybe out of curiosity, and I said to him: "Don't say anything to death. If you don't believe it, the last way is to ask him to calculate it for you, so that everything is clear."

Is it done?"

"That's right!" The fat man rolled his eyes and said to the old man: "Old man, since what you said is so vivid, can you calculate it for me? I won't let you calculate the past and future, so just do it.

Tell me what will happen to me now, preferably in the next few days?"

After hearing this, the old man immediately shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, not now."

"Oh? Why? Is it possible that everything you just said was false?"

"It's not false, it's not false. What I mean is that this person's fate is destined by God, and the cycle of cause and effect has already been determined, so there are traces, and it is not difficult to calculate. But right now

The situation is different. The so-called "first three, last five" means that the past three days and the next five days have been covered up by heaven, because these days are the most variable, and God does not allow mortals to peep.

So it’s not that easy to calculate. Even I can only give a rough estimate, whether it’s accurate or not is beyond human control.”

"Really or not?" The fat man looked at him suspiciously, rolled his eyelids, smiled, and said, "Then you can tell me your general guess. I will know whether it is accurate or not."

There was a look of hesitation on the old man's face, but he finally nodded awkwardly: "Okay then, please ask this boss to write down a word on the paper."

"Testing words? That's it." The fat man grabbed a pen and paper, thought for a while and then wrote the word "wai" on the paper.

The old man took the paper and read it for a while, then said leisurely: "Everyone has a kind of measure. If the amount is small, the person will be evil; if the amount is large, the heart will be kind. This word is big in mouth but small in Wei. Judging from this word,

This boss is a person with a lot of talent but a bad heart. He often talks what he means. This sharp-edged word means that your words and deeds are as sharp as a sword and leave no room for error. However, he is an upright man who values ​​love and justice. Although he has some bad habits, he is

I can also get forgiveness from my friends, but it’s easy to offend people.”

The fat man's expression was very unnatural when he said it. After holding it in for a long time, he couldn't help shouting: "Hey, old man, the second half of what you said is somewhat meaningful, but what do you call the first part? What's the big thing and bad intention?"

There is no room for duplicity. I have a good heart and a good reputation, Mr. Gua. What you said is wrong, absolutely wrong."

"Fat man, what he said is quite accurate." I patted his shoulder and said.

The monkey next to him also echoed: "Yes, yes, what he said is so right. I really admire him. He is the kind of person who is duplicitous and has a bad heart. I absolutely agree with this."

"Get out of the way, Mud Monkey." The fat man cursed, and then shouted to the old man: "Old man, you are so unreasonable. I let you decide your future. Why are you guessing about people's personalities? No wonder you have been married all your life.

If you don’t have a wife, you will know everything about them as soon as they meet, who would dare to live with you?"

The old man smiled and was not angry. He thought about it and said directly: "You came here to ask for something."

The fat man was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said with some confusion: "Of course I have something to ask for. Not everyone who comes to you for fortune telling has something to ask for."

"No, I mean what you really meant."

"Oh, you mean the original intention of me asking you to tell your fortune, right? Nonsense, you see we are all busy people. We are obviously busy people. We came to Beijing from other places. Of course we have something to ask for. Even a fool can do this.

Guessed."

"Haha, I just interpret it from the literal meaning. The square shape of the word '口' is exactly like the city of Beijing, and the word 'Wei' and 'Wei' are homophones, which means you are here because of your efforts.

The city of Beijing has nothing to do with speculation."

"Oh, then why did we come here, and will it go smoothly?" I couldn't help but ask.
