Chapter 129 The Fish Hooked
The younger brother immediately handed over the wooden stick in his hand.

The gangster boss slapped the younger brother on the head: "Who told you to take the stick? Did you take the stick? Silver! Do you understand silver?"

The little brother quickly took out a few pieces of broken silver from his arms.

The bastard boss picked it up, changed his previous arrogance, held the pieces of silver in both hands, and handed them respectfully to Chu Qing: "Master, I'm so small that I don't know Taishan, it makes you tired, it's a small thing , please accept it."

"Let's leave it there." Chu Qing didn't pick it up, she looked like a fairy, and looking at it, one couldn't help but believe that it was really a living god.

"Then... I don't know if I have a way to crack it?" the gangster boss lowered his voice and asked.

"Good and evil are rewarded, it's not that the time has not come for not reporting, understand?" Chu Qing raised his eyes, and his clear eyes were fixed directly into the gangster's black eyes.

He was silent for a while, nodded: "Understood. Thank you, master, for your reminder."

After speaking, he took a few steps back, respectfully bowed to Chu Qing three times, and asked the younger brother behind him to bow too, and then left.

After the three gangsters left, the crowd surrounded them with a clatter, chattering.

More can't help but guess, does this master really have some skills?Otherwise, how could the famous bastard Li Decai on this street just forget about it, and still have a day to take money out of his pocket?
There were those who were eager to tell a fortune, but couldn't squeeze in, so they couldn't help but yelled and asked, "Master, how do you charge?"

Chu Qing's calmness made people more convinced of his guess: "Five hexagrams a day, you are not allowed to take nothing."

"Does that mean everyone counts it?"

"For those who are eye-catching, a penny is counted; for those who are not eye-catching, thousands of gold are not counted."

Master, you are so capricious!
Chu Qing said five hexagrams a day, but it is really just five hexagrams, and one more hexagram doesn't count.After adding the one hexagram that was calculated earlier, after only four hexagrams were calculated, the stall was closed and people left.

And the four people who were fortune-telling by her couldn't help but stared at Chu Qing's leaving figure in admiration, and kept saying "really accurate", "Master is really a god", "Oh my god, how could it be so accurate"...

It was Zhong Xuan's confidant who was pretending to be a Taoist boy. After walking away, he couldn't help whispering: "Then, that Mr. Yu, you... really know how to count?"

The corner of Chu Qing's mouth raised: "How is it possible?"

If she really knew how to count, she wouldn't be here.

"But you just..."

"The first one is Trust." Otherwise, he really thought it was such a coincidence that someone came to find fault just as she was setting up a stall?

Anyway, this is the capital city, and it is also under the feet of the emperor.

Li Decai is not stupid for being so aboveboard.

The confidant was full of admiration: "Then, how many of them came later?"

Chu Qing said: "They are not."

"But how can it be so accurate?"

"Pay a little attention, then look at his face, ask a few questions, it's not difficult to guess." A person's face will change obviously due to the surrounding environment and his past experience, and it will also be reflected.As for the other things, from the clothes she wears, smelling them, distinguishing their sounds, watching their faces, and fooling around a few words, it's basically the same.

The confidant is completely convinced now.

On the third day, I finally waited for Uncle Zhong to pass by. At that time, there was a long queue in front of Chu Qing’s booth. Wait until the next day to come again.

Uncle Zhong frowned, looked at it strangely, and grabbed a person who regretted leaving: "What's going on?"

Never seen this hexagram booth before.

"Ah, you ask Master Chu's booth. Master Chu is really accurate in divination, so there is no inaccuracy. If you want to calculate it, you have to do it as soon as possible. Five hexagrams a day, if you are late, you will have to wait until tomorrow..." The man hurried back I'm planning to queue up before dawn tomorrow, but I don't believe I can't go to the front.

Uncle Zhong had a simple and honest face, and couldn't help but glance at Chu Qing's stall.

He has excellent hearing and can hear everyone's discussion.

They all praised it, saying that the master's calculation was accurate, she really had a small disaster, and she was almost hit by a piece of wood that fell from the sky.

But all of them are saying that this Master Chu is really accurate in his calculations.

When Uncle Zhong passed by again the next day, he couldn't help but look again, and found that there were still a lot of people.

He stood watching for a while before leaving.

After four or five days of repeating this kind of day, Uncle Zhong finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Early the next morning, I was the first to come to line up.

Chu Qing noticed Uncle Zhong as soon as he appeared, and she was not in a hurry, she waited for Uncle Zhong to find him, then raised her lips and smiled calmly.

The fish is hooked.

Chu Qing raised her eyes, looked at Uncle Zhong, raised her hand, and brushed her beard: "Fortune-telling or fortune-telling?"

Uncle Zhong: "How about fortune-telling and fortune-telling?"

Chu Qing: "If you're not sure, you won't get a penny, if you're sure, you'll get double the reward."

Uncle Zhong took out a piece of silver from his pocket and put it on the table: "Forget it."

Chu Qing's face remained unchanged, and Daotong immediately put away the money.

Chu Qing raised her hand, signaling Uncle Zhong to write a word.

Uncle Zhong thought for a while, raised his hand, and wrote the word "loyalty".

Chu Qing waited for Uncle Zhong to put down his pen, then raised his head to look at Uncle Zhong again, with a rather meaningful expression.

Her fingertips traced the character Zhong, stroke by stroke again, and finally touched the heart with her fingertips.

"Up and down, it seems that this master's position in the family is very important."

Uncle Zhong was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

He didn't speak, but admitted it.

He is Zhao Kuiwu's housekeeper, and he is highly valued. Almost all the big and small things in the house are under his control, so he is naturally in a very important position.

"However... the word loyalty is good when taken together, but it's not good if you look at it alone and have a heart."

Uncle Zhong's heart skipped a beat: "What?"

Chu Qing looked up at Uncle Zhong, and couldn't help shaking her head: "Congxin is at a disadvantage, and it's easy to do bad things with good intentions."

This sentence "doing bad things with good intentions" completely convinced Uncle Zhong. For the past six months, he has been worried because he might have done bad things with good intentions.

He leaned forward anxiously: "Master, is there a way to crack it?"

Chu Qing shook his head: "It's difficult, this master was originally short-lived, and he should have died unexpectedly, but he was able to resolve it when he met a noble person. However, although this master's fate is gone, it is changed. It’s on your nobleman, so your nobleman has to suffer like this, it’s difficult, I’m afraid there will be a bloody disaster.” After finishing speaking, Chu Qing seemed unwilling to get involved in this matter, and asked Daotong to take the money back. Pushed it to Uncle Zhong again: "My lord, you should take the silver back. Your Guayin will not be accepted by the poor."

"Why? Is there really no way to solve it?" Uncle Zhong was in a hurry. He heard the short life, and he believed it completely. He almost died back then, but the master saved his life. Otherwise, he would have died by now. up.

Chu Qing couldn't help chuckling: "Master, it's not that the poor are unwilling to help you, but... that nobleman of yours has done too many bad things and damaged his morality. It's nothing at all. He has the blessings of his ancestors to protect him." , and you can live this life in peace and stability. But this Lord, you have done something bad with good intentions, and this cause has already occurred, which has changed your nobleman's life. This... is unsolvable."

After Chu Qing finished speaking, she took a deep look at Uncle Zhong, and said directly to the back: "Next."

The others were anxiously waiting to find Mr. Chu, the fortune teller, for a fortune telling. Seeing that the loyal uncle had been sitting still, the impatient people behind couldn't help but urge him.

When Uncle Zhong said from Chu Qing, "You have done bad things with good intentions, you have already changed your nobleman's life", he was completely dumbfounded.

He was so flustered that he ignored the people behind him, stood up suddenly, and knelt down in front of the hexagram booth: "Please help, sir!"

The master did this for him, he can't just harm the master like this!

Even if it is to exchange his life for the master's life, he is willing!

Uncle Zhong regrets so much, it would be great if he hadn't been coerced by his wife at the beginning, if he hadn't done that thing!I knew it earlier, I knew it earlier... But money is hard to buy, I knew it earlier.

In the past six months, he has often been anxious, unable to sleep day and night, because he is afraid of hurting the master.

The people queuing up behind were also taken aback by Uncle Zhong: "What's the matter with you? Master Chu doesn't even care about it. You are still begging for nothing, don't you think it's embarrassing?"

"Why does this person look familiar?" Someone behind him suddenly said.

Uncle Zhong trembled all over, and suddenly woke up.

I am the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion, so I can't embarrass the master.

So, he gritted his teeth, looked up at Chu Qing, stood up, and quickly left with his head down.

Such a small episode was quickly forgotten, and the people behind hurried forward to seek a hexagram to ensure safety and solve doubts.

Chu Qing still counted the five hexagrams for a full day, and then left.

Although there were many people to stay, Chu Qing still left.Everyone didn't dare to force them to stay, because they were afraid of offending the master.

Chu Qing had instructed Dao Tong in advance today, fearing that this loyal uncle would come to them today, so even though the confidant dressed as Dao Tong noticed that someone was following them along the way, he didn't care.

Walking all the way to the inn where Chu Qing stayed, Chu Qing went upstairs and entered the room, while Dao Tong went down to serve the meal.

Dao Tong came up, arranged the meals, and said to Chu Qing in a low voice: "The fish is here."

Chu Qing nodded, picked up the bowl and began to eat.

The door knocked at this moment, and Chu Qing asked Dao Tong to wait for a while before letting Dao Tong open the door.

Dao Tong opened the door and saw the respectful Uncle Zhong: "Why is it you? The master has already said it, and we will not count your hexagrams in the future." Saying that, he was about to close the door directly, and was caught Uncle Zhong put his foot in the door and blocked it.

"Don't, don't, let me say a few words to the master, just a few words are enough!" Uncle Zhong was afraid that Chu Qing would really miss him, so he shouted at Chu Qing through the crack of the door: "Master, master, I just say a few words, really Just a few words!"

Chu Qing looked up at him: "Let him in."
