Chapter 275 Becoming the Number One Scholar
Lin Qingxia saw him holding her hand.
Like the lotus in early summer, a hint of blush blooms on the face, but in an instant a sweetness appears in the heart.
After pulling it gently and seeing that she didn't break free, she stopped struggling and let him hold her hand.
Li Shaoan felt her relax and said with a smile:
"Do you want to do the math?
Come on, let's go over and have a look. "
She was still a little embarrassed, lowered her head slightly and said softly:
"Let's not go, there are still people ahead."
Knowing her girlish mind, she wanted to go but was shy.
"Come on, we'll go check it out, it's okay."
After hearing what he said, Lin Qingxia followed him obediently.
The origin of fortune tellers is very early, and can be traced back to the time of Fuxi, the ancestor of human civilization.
But the real records of fortune tellers began in the ancient Qin Dynasty.
It tells the story of the most famous fortune teller in the Qin Shihuang era, Xu Fu and Xu Mo Fu.
Her name is very interesting, and it is rumored to come from an allusion:
Xu Fu, also known by his courtesy name Mo Fu, was a famous fortune teller during the Qin and Han dynasties, renowned for his extraordinary physiognomy and predictive abilities.
It is said that she was born with visions.
It is said that he was born holding a beautiful jade in his hand, on which the Eight Diagrams of King Wen could be vaguely seen.
Xu Fu was very smart since he was young and could remember everything he saw at the age of four.
When her mother gave birth to her, there was a bright green light in the room, and a piece of crystal clear jade was tightly held in her hand. The yin-yang fish on the jade was rotating continuously, forming an ethereal Bagua diagram.
These strange phenomena made Xu Fu be regarded as a blessing from heaven since his birth.
One day, Ying Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this.
He personally ordered to reward Xu Fu with 100 taels of gold, and asked her father Xu Wang to train her well.
And Xu Fu did live up to everyone's expectations.
Her predictive ability has been verified many times and has been widely recognized and respected. Legend has it that even Ying Zheng respected her.
Her predictions included her identification of Liu Bang, Yu Ji, and she had also calculated for Zhou Yafu, Deng Tong and others.
These predictions were verified one by one decades later, without any error.
Of course, the most important thing is that she predicted the death of Qin II.
So after Ying Zheng's death, he ignored his family's fear and opposition and changed Xu Mofu's name to Xu Fu.
The two came to the fortune teller.
Seeing that he was wearing sunglasses, Lin Qingxia thought he was blind and whispered in Li Shaoan's ear:
"Brother An, why are so many fortune tellers blind?"
Li Shaoan shook his head slightly when he heard this.
Others don’t know, but this blind man is not blind. He just has some low vision and is pretending to be blind.
He smiled at Lin Qingxia and said:
"I'll tell you later, let's take a look first."
"Uh-huh..."
She nodded obediently and watched quietly.
The fortune teller was seen shaking three copper coins on the back of a turtle, and soon he scattered the coins on the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams diagram on the table.
Then slowly touch the copper coins and their corresponding positions with your hands.
In less than a minute, he seemed to have understood the hexagram and shook his head and sighed.
When he felt that the woman was getting nervous because of his actions, he immediately put on a smile, pinched his fingers and began to interpret the hexagram:
"Your husband is a monkey and you are a rooster. Actually, your horoscopes are very compatible with your husband's.
only..."
"Just what?"
His pause allowed the woman to react immediately.
He took out a thick red envelope from his bag and placed it on the table, and said nervously:
“Master, here are two thousand Taiwan dollars.
This is just a small token of my respect, I hope you can guide me out of this maze.”
Lin Qingxia was shocked when she saw this scene. Why would it cost so much money to tell a fortune?
Nowadays, a senior engineer only earns 2,000 to 3,000 Taiwan dollars a month, and ordinary people earn even less, with a maximum income of 600 Taiwan dollars a month.
She went to see Deng Lijun’s concert before.
In addition to the change she saved for two months, her father also sponsored NT$600.
Otherwise she wouldn't be able to go see her idol, let alone buy a ticket for the front row.
Thinking of this, she whispered in Li Shaoan's ear:
"Brother An, let's go. This is too expensive."
Feeling her gentle breath beside his ears, Li Shaoan sighed in his heart:
"Lin Qingxia, 18 years old, is so amazing."
He held her hand and shook his head slightly.
"It's okay, Brother An, I have plenty of money, let's take a look first."
As long as the fortune teller could say a few good words to deepen Lin Qingxia's favor towards him, he wouldn't mind giving him a few hundred Hong Kong dollars to spend.
Two thousand Taiwan dollars is less than five hundred Hong Kong dollars.
When is a man most handsome?
Besides being handsome, he is even more handsome when he spends money like water.
Although Lin Qingxia was not a materialistic woman, when she heard Li Shaoan say this, she still felt that he was extremely manly and handsome.
The fortune teller pretended to refuse, then put the money in his pocket and smiled even brighter:
"Your husband's fate is full of peach blossoms, and he is very prone to peach blossom evil.
Even if he doesn't mess with those women, there will be women who will mess with him."
As he spoke, he took out a small copper talisman from his arms and handed it to the woman opposite him.
"Here I have a lucky charm that can cut off peach blossoms. Take it back and let your husband wear it.
It will definitely cut off all his emotional ties."
The woman took the copper talisman with a pious look and said gratefully:
“Okay, okay, that’s great.
Thank you Master, thank you so much.
How much will it take for me to take this lucky charm back?"
The fortune teller looked very dignified and said calmly:
"As for the intention, it's naturally about the heart, not the money, just be casual.
But the more thoughtfulness you give, the more pious you are, and Mazu will be able to feel that piety.
The effect will naturally be better.”
Li Shaoan was watching this scene from the side, and he was somewhat impressed:
“It’s true that there are 360 professions and every profession has its top talent.
Such obvious lies were actually believed by the woman under his performance.
Kill two birds with one stone and bring in more goods.”
When the woman heard what he said, she immediately rummaged through her bag and took out all the cash and put it on the table:
"Master, this is all the money I have, a total of NT$3,300.
I wonder if my intention is enough?"
The fortune teller was so happy when he heard this that he grinned so hard that his gums almost showed:
"Enough is enough, Mazu will surely be able to sense Ms. Wang's devotion.
This money was not spent by me, but was used to decorate the golden statue of Mazu."
Through his sunglasses he saw that there were several other guests, and fearing they might misunderstand, he quickly added the following sentence.
Ms. Wang held the copper talisman in both hands, still unable to hold back her excitement, and thanked:
“Master, thank you so much.
I will definitely bring my husband here to fulfill my vow in the near future."
The fortune teller smiled faintly and waved his hand:
"You're welcome, the most important thing is that you two get along well.
Mazu will be very happy if she knows this.”
Seeing that he talked about Mazu every other sentence, Li Shaoan knew how fanatical the people of Wandao were in their belief in Mazu.
Touched his chin.
Seeing this, he always felt that this scene was a little familiar.
