divination

"Long'er, you don't need to talk about it! I know it well!" The blind Taoist priest's body froze immediately, and a scene he would never forget appeared in his mind!The fire made Ding Yi lose his light, and even made him lose something more cherished than life.Shaking his head slowly, Ding Yi thought that only by solving the eight strange hexagrams can he solve the mystery of Xiangzhi hexagram and know his life experience, so he stomped on his withered wooden crutches and walked out the door with a firm expression.Seeing that the young master is so resolute, Long Er doesn't try to stop him, he puts down the meal money, and quickly catches up with Ding Yi.

The roadside of the street is covered with bluestones of different sizes, and there are patches of lush green grass and trees on the side. The single cicada sings like a bird, and the mottled white butterfly flies up and down. At this time, many people walked by talking and laughing on the road, and the most numerous of them were the gods in Taoist robes. They all walked in the same direction, Dongfang Haige, the mansion of the Dongfang Family. .

Ding Yi was walking forward when suddenly his body froze like an electric shock.Long-term blindness made Ding Yi's sense of hearing different from that of ordinary people, but it was not difficult to hear the slight noise just now as a master of lightness kung fu.Ding Yi sighed, thinking to himself that Mufeng City was indeed hiding a dragon and crouching tiger, and was about to leave when he heard a strange movement.Ding Yi guarded his mind, his eardrums beat slightly like a pulse, his ear wings stood up like thin bat wings, and the subtle sound waves as weak as a mosquito's sound were absorbed into his heart.

"Tang Yu was guarding the west side but was seriously injured due to the fierce battle. Now he is recuperating in the Tang Mansion outside Mufeng City. We use people's money to help people eliminate the disaster. Today, the crowd flocked to Dongfanghai Pavilion, which is a good opportunity to make a move. "

Even though Ding Yi heard the voice on the floor a hundred meters away, he still could not hide his cold and murderous aura, and he thought to himself: "Tang Yu is a famous general of the Cangyun Kingdom for generations, and he is a loyal and brave marquis. I have a relationship with him once. , Its brilliance can be seen among the generals. If there were such famous generals guarding the north at that time, my life might not be here. Now it is a time of war, and such famous generals are needed even more. How could General Tang be killed by Xiaoxiao? Give him a hand."

Ding Yi thought to this point, then turned around and lowered his ears to Long Er, Long Er frowned when he heard this, Shi immediately returned to normal, bent slightly, bowed his hands respectfully and said: "Young master, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

As soon as Ding saw Long Er's figure disappearing like a gust of wind, he sighed softly: "It's easy to hide from a sharp spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow! I hope Long Er can help General Tang escape this calamity!" After Ding sighed, everything was as usual, and he leaned on his shoulders. Walking on crutches to Dongfanghai Pavilion.

Dongfanghai Pavilion is located at the estuary of Yunhe, the mother river of Cangyun Kingdom, which flows through Mufeng City. It has been engaged in water trades such as Yunhe, Cangjiang, canals, and coastal waters for generations. Famous and prestigious in the whole country, there are few people who can stand up to it, and there is a couplet in the imperial script of the former emperor hanging in front of the gate: The Oriental Pearl Lingling all over the world, and the Haige Temple Xiao Cangyun.

Two roaring dragons carved from natural rocks are erected near the sea in Dongfanghai Pavilion, looking majestically at the rippling Xiaoyao Sea with both eyes, surrounded by evergreen ancient trees. There are only a few fork roads, and the fork roads are connected to well-arranged pavilions, terraces, lakes and lakes.

Ding Yi walked along the avenue, and the intoxicating fragrance wafted from his nose, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, his expression immersed in attachment, there seemed to be a faint memory of forgetfulness floating in his brows, it took a long time before he moved forward Come to the front yard of Dongfanghai Pavilion.

The eaves of the front yard are floating with dark golden dragon patterns, extending to both sides and upwards like a conch shell upside down to raise the wrathful sea blue dragon. The golden jade dragon beard flashes between the blue dragon's nose, and a translucent crystal pearl hangs under the slightly protruding lip. The glazed jade tiles, like dragon scales, are pleated and shining like stars in the vast sky. From a distance, they are majestic and majestic like a real dragon reborn.

At this time, the front yard has already gathered an endless stream of people, most of them are famous hexagrams from all over the world. In the huge courtyard, they are whispering and guessing the strange hexagram that Dongfang Yun offered a reward of ten thousand taels of gold, with different expressions .Some looked eager, as if they were full of anticipation for Yigua to become famous, while others showed curious faces, as if they were full of anticipation for the ending of this grand event in the trigram world.However, there are a few people in the crowd with normal faces, some are indifferent, some are disdainful, and some are there like an old monk in meditation, it seems that they are not easy people.

"Yo! Xu Banxian, are you here to solve this strange hexagram today?"

"I have used divination to tell fortunes for half my life. Although I have gained some fame, I am always lucky. I am still impoverished. I heard that the Patriarch of the Dongfang family spent ten thousand gold to find a virtuous person to solve the divination. Let me try my luck!"

"Xu Banxian laughed at this remark! Such a heavy hexagram gold is indeed rare in a thousand years. If you can really solve this hexagram, you will surely enjoy endless prosperity and wealth in the future! However, since this hexagram has so much gold, it must be An extremely difficult hexagram! According to seniors, what kind of hexagram is this hexagram?"

"Hmm! I guess this hexagram must be one of the 64 big hexagrams!"

"There are 64 hexagrams, and with the six lines of each hexagram, there are 380 four changes. If supplemented with current events, situations, orientations, and sentiments, many other factors can play out thousands of different numbers. It is difficult to explain one or two of them in a lifetime. If It is the hexagram in this, I am afraid it is extremely difficult to understand!"

Ding Yi who had just stepped into the front yard heard Xu Banxian's answer, stopped for a while, then shook his head and walked along the stone path, sighing in his heart: "It's another hexagram interpreter for wealth! Wealth is like floating clouds, why is there always someone Do you like this? Alas..."

Ding Yi shook his head slightly when he heard the words, and was about to walk to the corner of the yard, but suddenly heard a sneer, and looked around, only to see a person stepping forward and saying: "Xu Banxian, I have heard for a long time that your hexagram skills are among the rare in the world." , but from what you just said, not only can’t see any cleverness, but it’s even suspected that the name doesn’t match the truth, maybe because you think this hexagram is simple and easy to understand, so you don’t care about it!” At that time, I saw a man with a thin body like bamboo wormwood and a complexion. The lax-yellow young man was holding a centipede-shaped yarrow, his body swayed left and right, squinting at Xu Banxiandao.

Ding Yi stopped without realizing it, put his hands on the top of the dead wood crutches, turned his head to look at the young man, and then a mysterious breath with taste but texture rushed into his nose, the taste cells were stimulated and surged like a tide.Ding Yiqing moved his vitality, absorbed these breaths like a sponge absorbing water, and penetrated into his brain for layer-by-layer analysis. After a while, he already had the answer in his heart, and thought to himself: "Yarrow! It seems that this person's fortune-telling method is a pile of divine grass It's a hexagram."

At this time, Xu Banxian looked at the young man, his expression caused several ripples like a stone falling into the water, his eyes flashed with anger, and he went up to him after a long while and said: "Look, what Xiongtai is holding is the magic grass to perform hexagrams." The yarrow used is supposed to be a person who is proficient in hexagrams, I don’t know what is your relationship with the yarrow god?"

"I am the yarrow god!" The young man was very proud when he heard the words, then he tilted his head and squinted at Xu Banxian and said.

"It turns out that the yarrow god who is famous all over the world is so young, so he must have extraordinary attainments in hexagrams. The old man has been famous for a long time, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation. Even the casual talk of the old man can tell one from the other. Your general insight really makes me admire you, and I think there is only heaven in the world that can compare with you." Xu Banxian bowed slightly with a half-smile, but his expression turned dark. "It is said that Tianji once solved most of the 64 hexagrams in the world. I don't know if the divination can be solved a little bit, and let me and other ordinary people see and see."

Although the yarrow divine divination has a small success in hexagram skills, but it is not enough to solve the big hexagrams. How can it solve any strange hexagrams? I have never tried to solve the hexagrams when I came here today. I just wanted to show off in front of the Eastern Patriarch. Just to make myself famous.Hearing what Xu Banxian said, Shen Bu of Yarrow blushed for a while, then turned black for a while, and was speechless for a while.Everyone laughed secretly when they heard it, as if they were saying that the yarrow god was too ignorant of current affairs, so young to casually criticize Xu Banxian, who had been famous for a long time.

The yarrow god divining both eyes, took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "How can we be compared with the heavenly secrets, the hexagram technique is originally sixty-four, but you said that today's strange hexagram must be here 64 big hexagrams." Among them, such a well-known matter in the hexagram circle, but you let Xu Banxian come here to show off, but you don’t see any hexagram theory, just blindly take it off, I don’t know if it’s powerless, or the name doesn’t match the truth?”

"The name doesn't match the truth? Ha... ha... Sure enough, there are talented people from generation to generation. Such a young man is really extraordinary. He can point out that the old man's name does not match the truth. This old man admires him. However, I have to ask Your Excellency, as the so-called attributive words, Changes are born freely in the world, and the old man thinks that he can integrate into the hexagram of heaven and earth, but whether the divination of yarrow has already entered into the hexagram of heaven and earth, is it born from the heart?" Xu Banxian bowed slightly without a smile, but his face darkened.

"Senior is an old Jianghu, famous in the hexagram circle, but I heard not long ago that there was a hexagram master in Longevity City who claimed to be Xu Banxian, but he made a wrong calculation of yin and yang, which caused a wealthy businessman to die in a foreign land. Those who ruined the reputation of the senior like this should be recognized by everyone. Execute it." Yarrow God Bu raised his right eye and said casually.

"You..." Xu Banxian blew his beard and stared angrily, his facial muscles twitched repeatedly, stroked his chest with his right hand for a moment, and said calmly, "Okay! The yarrow god, since you said that my name does not match the truth, then we will Let's have a fight, how about it?"

"Fight, just fight! Is it possible that I am afraid that you will not succeed!" The yarrow god Bu shot his eyes indifferently, and then shook his yarrow in a serious manner: "Tell me, how do we fight!"

Xu Banxian thought for a while and then said: "I, Xu Banxian, are famous for performing hexagrams with easy numbers of plum blossoms. Your yarrow god Bu stands out for performing hexagrams with piles of divine grass. We perform hexagrams according to our respective good at performing hexagrams. , whoever wins!"

"The hexagram techniques include Yao Xiangyan, Four Pillar Prediction, Bare-handed Guessing, Liuren Thaumaturgy, Plum Blossom Yishu, Shencao Judui, and Plum Blossom Yishu and Shencao Yangua are both superior techniques for hexagram performance. , but I don’t know how well they acted!” Ding Yi thought to himself when he heard this.

Xu Banxian's battle with the yarrow god, this incident immediately attracted crowds to watch, and they all sniped who would perform more accurately.At that time, the yarrow god Bu squinted at Xu Banxian with his right eye and said, "Xu Banxian, as you say!"

"Okay! The yarrow god divination, I have determined the method of fighting the hexagram. The title of the hexagram has not yet been decided. For the sake of fairness, you will come up with the title of this hexagram!" Xu Banxian looked at the yarrow quietly, and his expression was quite like a master.

Everyone looked at Yarrow with burning eyes, wondering what kind of hexagram he would ask.After a long time, the yarrow god Bu raised the eyebrow of his right eye, twirled the yarrow and said, "Today, we all come here for the Patriarch of the East to ask for a virtuous solution to the hexagram. Why don't we ask who can solve the hexagram as the question?"
