Masterful appearance

() (National Day, I wish all book lovers a happy holiday and all the best... I have made a good recommendation, and it should be a holiday gift for Tanhua--)

The person who stepped out of the crowd participating in the competition was called Teng Guoyuan.

The name of this person came from Gu Anqi's mouth, and he is quite famous in the Hong Kong metaphysics circle. Gu Anqi told everyone that Teng Guoyuan's metaphysics status in Hong Kong is not as bad as anyone here.

As the No.4 shooter, the onlookers sitting in the courtyard hoped to see more exciting divination predictions.

Like Lu Yong before, after Teng Guoyuan chose a dish, he also made a hexagram in his palm, the only difference was that he repeated it three times.

"Aunt Lan, why is it getting more and more cumbersome to start the hexagram at the end? I think Chang Leyuan and Yan Tongfu were very relaxed just now, but this Teng Guoyuan seems to be unable to do what he wants." Xiao Lianshan asked idly.

"For divination, you can't ask the same thing more than three times, otherwise it won't work. The reason why Teng Guoyuan's divination is cumbersome is because he happens to be the fourth divination person. He has to consider changing, wrong and moving divinations. The changes and connections between them, this is the time to test your skills." Lan Qing answered while staring at the front.

"Then why did he repeat the hexagram three times?" Yue Qianling slowly became interested after reading the divination predictions of the previous people.

"Taoism emphasizes that Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things. This is also the truth that things do not exceed three. Divination and divination, the same thing cannot be asked three times. Compared with the previous few people, Teng Guoyuan's difficulty this time is much higher. It is much bigger, so he deduces the three hexagrams to see the changes."

After Teng Guoyuan finished hexagram, he paused silently for a moment and then spoke loudly.

"I start with three hexagrams, the first hexagram Huotiandayou hexagram, the second hexagram Tianzelu hexagram, and the third hexagram Lvyu hexagram."

When Lan Qing heard Teng Guoyuan report the hexagram, she was stunned and whispered in surprise.

"What An Qi said is indeed correct, this Teng Guoyuan does not seem to be an ordinary person."

"Didn't you start trigrams? Can this be called powerful?" Yue Qianling asked in great perplexity.

"Usually the same method is used to form the hexagrams, but the three hexagrams of Teng Guoyuan actually used three different methods to form the hexagrams: Zhouyi Bagua, Wenwang 64 hexagrams and Meihua Yishu respectively, so that the mutual deduction of the three hexagrams will be more accurate. But this is definitely not something that ordinary people can do, it can be seen that Teng Guoyuan has mastered all kinds of divination methods, he is really a master!" Lan Qing said with admiration.

Teng Guoyuan raised his head and said plausibly to Gu Xiaotian.

"Tianze Lu Gua Hexagram Speech: The phoenix landed on Xiqi Mountain, and the sages came out after a few long sounds. The king of Wen descended from the sky and opened his foundation. He has been rich and prosperous for 800 years, and those who walk on his feet are also creeping. The elephant, the husband phoenix singing Qishan, is the auspicious bird of the phoenix, which is not often seen by people. It suddenly sings on the Qishan mountain, followed by King Wen Zhiye, also known as Shengde, and greatly promoted the Zhou clan."

Lan Qing lowered her head and thought for a while, then nodded thoughtfully and whispered to herself.

"This hexagram and the first hexagram Huotian Dayou hexagram really complement each other..."

"Good birds choose trees to live in. Fengming Qishan must live in good trees. The first hexagram, Huotian, has a big hexagram. If there is a big one, all big ones, the image of the upper and lower phases, so there is a sign of cutting down trees and touching birds. A person who touches a bird in a tree is a person who sees a sparrow on a tree by chance, wants to touch it, and cuts down the tree for fear that it will suddenly disappear." Teng Guoyuan continued with confidence. "The last hexagram is the Lu hexagram. The bird burning its nest is a great evil. The combination of the three hexagrams is the phoenix falling on the good wood. Someone wants to chop down the wood to catch him, but the phoenix destroys his nest by himself, so that person can't get his wish."

Speaking of this, the corners of Teng Guoyuan's mouth slowly turned up, and he looked at the dish he had chosen in front of him confidently and said.

"This dish should be Phoenix's nest!"

Gu Xiaotian nodded with a half-smile, signaling his subordinates to open it.

Under the silver cover is indeed a plate of delicious and delicious phoenix nest!

"Phoenix Pai Wo is a famous dish in the palace. It is even included in the Manchu Banquet. The main ingredients are..."

Before Gu Anqi could finish speaking, Xiao Lianshan interrupted her by shaking his hands.

"Gu nainai, please don't talk about it. No matter how expensive the dish is, it's useless to see if you can't eat it. If you keep talking, I can't bear it anymore."

After Teng Guoyuan sat down, there were still three seats left, and the others still did not move. Chu Tianci seemed to be watching the fun, and still stood there indifferently. Although the other contestants had backgrounds to some extent, But today’s divination is real, if you make a mistake, it’s not a big deal, and it’s troublesome if you fold your own signboard, not to mention that it has been occupied five times, and the difficulty is getting more and more difficult. If you don’t have absolute certainty, you don’t dare to try it rashly. .

Except for Ouyang Cuo, Song Hui was the only one among the contestants who knew something about Chu Tianci. Before Song Hui, he was not in a hurry, as if he was waiting for something. The moment he saw Teng Guoyuan sitting down, Song Hui left come out.

"I'm also here to show my ugliness." Song Hui walked to the table and didn't make a fuss, but looked at the people who had already sat down and said relaxedly. "Congratulations to the four people in front of you who have already sat down. The four of you sit on one side, accounting for the largest number of them. Up, down, and six are just the 37 hexagrams in the gossip of the Book of Changes, the Fenghuo family hexagram!"

Lan Qing muttered to herself in surprise.

"Unexpectedly, Song Hui is even more powerful!"

"Mom, Song Hui didn't even get up, how do you know he's good?" Yue Qianling asked curiously.

"It's not that he can't afford hexagrams, but he has no way to start them. The people in front of him have occupied one thing more than three times, and it's useless to occupy it again. During the Song Hui trial, he used the sitting person to make hexagrams, which became variables. Well, it seems that Song Hui's practice in divination and hexagrams has reached the realm of making hexagrams at will."

Song thought about it and slowly raised his head and said decisively.

"The hexagram of the Fenghuo family, a woman cooks well, and the family is auspicious. This time is the time of Hai, and Hai is pig. It can be seen that the cooking ingredient is pork. The dish I chose faces east, and the east is wood. Wood is the main liver, which is pork liver. , the four people in front look like **, hehe, this dish is pork liver!"

**Pork liver is a famous dish in Quanzhou, just as Song Hui calculated, under the untied silver cover, there is indeed a plate of delicious **pork liver.

There were still two seats left, Chu Tianci did not move, but Ouyang Cuo finally walked out, Chu Tianci seemed to have known that Ouyang Cuo would make a move at this time, raised his head to watch his every move.

"Heavenly gift...why doesn't this kid choose dishes?" Lan Qing said anxiously, unable to sit still. "The further you go, the more difficult it is to get the right one. If Ouyang takes the wrong one again, there will be only one position left. The last one is too variable. I'm worried..."

When Yue Leiting heard what Lan Qing said, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and Yue Qianling rubbed his hands involuntarily below, his anxious palms were full of sweat.

Only Xiao Lianshan remained calm all the time, and said disapprovingly.

"Don't worry about it, my brother won't lose. He's just watching the fun. Waiting for the finale, how majestic it will be."

"You put it simply, you really think he is a fairy, and you can see what's inside through the silver cover." Yue Qianling said angrily.

Ouyang Cuo stood in front of the table, looked at the five people who had already sat down, and even bowed his hands and said lightly.

"Ouyang Cuo thanked everyone in advance, plus me, a six-person, I am the sixth divination, with six variables, yang over 60 years old, yin under 60 years old, according to the order of seating, just right Come up with a divination for me!"

Yan Tongshou didn't speak for a long time, and nodded sincerely when he heard Ouyang's wrong way of making hexagrams.

"Although I don't know much about divination and divination, I heard my elder brother Yan Tongfu mention that everything in the world is the Tao, and the Tao is free in it. Ouyang Cuo can have no divination in his hands, but the divination is at his heart, and he can do whatever he wants All things are hexagrams, and this level of skill is far above the other five people, there are heavens and people outside the sky, there are people outside the world!"

"What I took out is the 27th hexagram of Zhouyi, the Yi hexagram, and the elephant said: Sheer spirit turtle, watch me eat, which means abandon my spirit turtle, come and watch me eat with my cheeks down..." Ouyang made a mistake speak slowly.

"There's nothing else to think about here. It's mentioned that there are turtles. This dish must have something to do with turtles." Xiao Lianshan whispered disapprovingly.

"How can it be so simple? If you rely on the meaning of the hexagram to understand it, then everyone will know how to divination and ask the hexagram. It is far more difficult to break the hexagram than the hexagram. It all depends on one's understanding of Zhouyi gossip and reference to things. Enlightenment." Lan Qing said very calmly.

As expected, Ouyang Cuo shook his head lightly and said meaningfully.

"This hexagram is a false hexagram, trying to cover up the real hexagram. There are five people in front of me. I am the sixth to start a hexagram and change it to the ninth five. For example: Xianbi, the king uses three drives, loses the front poultry, and the townspeople do not warn, auspicious, which means that the king hunts and surrounds the poultry on three sides, but allows the poultry to escape and will not be hunted."

After Ouyang Cuo finished speaking, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then slowly smiled and said calmly.

"If you don't hunt, you don't see blood. This dish should be a beast or something, but when you cook it, you can't see blood. My zodiac sign is chicken, and the dish made of bloodless chicken... Hehe, I just know one, this The dish should be air-dried chicken!"

When the silver cover was lifted, there was indeed a plate of skinny and dried chicken inside.

"After seeing so many dishes, this one has nothing to eat, and it can still serve a banquet?" Xiao Lianshan said very dissatisfied.

"This is a well-known Tibetan dish. When making this dish, you need a certain technique and the speed must be very fast. The whole process of plucking the hair, removing the viscera, stuffing the seasoning into the belly of the chicken, sewing it, and hanging it in a ventilated place is extremely fast. Bloodletting is not allowed, at this time the chicken must still be alive, and then it crows like a wind chime in the wind and snow, and the scene is very comforting.” Gu Anqi said like a few treasures.

Xiao Lianshan was horrified when he heard that, he never thought that such an ordinary dish could be so cruelly prepared.

There was one last seat left, and when Ouyang Cuo sat down, Chu Tianci sat down too.

All the people in the courtyard became noisy at the same time, Yue Lei Ting was stunned, and Lan Qing looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Gu Xiaotian was as calm as ever, and with a wave of his hand, the courtyard became quiet again.

"Did you understand the rules I just said?"

Chu Tianci nodded, didn't even choose a dish, pointed to the silver mask in front of him and said with a smile.

"Mapo Tofu!"

Gu Xiaotian frowned, and exchanged glances with Kong Guan and Wei Yu beside him. Compared with the previous six people, Chu Tianci did look relaxed, even a little bewildered, he didn't raise or reason. Without even thinking about it, I blurted out.

The silver cover was slowly lifted, and almost everyone in the courtyard stood up at the same time, wanting to know whether what Chu Tianci said was right or not!
