Ten years of cold windows, you tell me that people are deadlocked?

"Master, dinner is ready, do you think we should eat it downstairs, or ask Xiaoer to bring it up?"

After driving for a day, Wang Bozhen was exhausted.

After thinking for a moment, he replied.

"Call them up!"

After Xiao Er delivered the food to the room, the housekeeper Fu, while serving his master to eat, asked in a low voice:

"Master, I heard that this Qingyun Town is quite different from our Zhuxian Town. The night here is very beautiful, especially the cruise ships on both sides of the river at night. It is very elegant to go boating on it. I don't know if the master wants to go. shopping?"

Hearing what the other party said, Wang Bozhen became interested in an instant.

I heard that the women in Qingyun Town are very watery, if you can go boating with them on the lake at night, it will be really special.

He has no other hobbies, except for beautiful women.

Although there are already six concubines in the family, when Wang Bozhen goes out to do business in other places, he will still bring back those who meet his eyesight.

But in a blink of an eye, thinking about what the master said before, he began to hesitate again, and lost interest in an instant.

"Forget it, master, I've been tired all day today, and I want to rest early! If you want to go, go by yourself!"

Hearing what his master said, Ah Fu secretly thought it was a pity.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the other party's favor and take a tour along the way.Now that the master is not going, he is naturally embarrassed to go.

Wang Bozhen slept until midnight when she was suddenly woken up.

"Master, master is not good!"

Anyone who is woken up in the middle of the night will not be in a good mood.

Seeing his master's ugly face, Ah Fu felt a little guilty.He didn't dare to hide what happened.

"What's the matter? Tell me now!"

Seeing Wang Bozhen get angry, the butler swallowed, and then said hesitatingly:

"Before, didn't I suggest you to take a boat trip at night, sir? Later, you said that you were too tired and let us go by ourselves. Of course I would not go to take care of you, but the four servants did.

I just got the news from the innkeeper downstairs that a bridge by the lake collapsed, and the colorful sheds on both sides of the bridge also collapsed, killing many people, including our four servants.

Fortunately, they are good at water, seeing that the situation is not right, they jumped into the river and escaped by chance, otherwise, they might have to explain where they are! "

"What? What did you say!"

Wang Bozhen was awakened instantly.

At this time, the housekeeper was also very disturbed.

It was he who suggested before, to go on a boat trip on the lake.Fortunately, the master didn't go. If something happened, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this moment, Wang Bozhen was thinking the same thing.

If it wasn't for him, following the master's advice and not going on a cruise, maybe he really wouldn't be able to come back.

Those servants know water, but he can't!

Thinking of this, Wang Bozhen broke into a cold sweat.

He is very grateful now, glad that he has recovered his life.

I just don't know, is that the master calculated it himself, or is it really a coincidence?

What happened at night completely frightened Wang Bozhen.

Early the next morning, he went directly to the creditor and demanded the money back.Even when the other party wanted to invite him to a restaurant for dinner, Wang Bozhen politely refused, without staying for a moment, and rushed back to Zhuxian Town directly.

After returning home and receiving the tea offered by the servants, Wang Bozhen felt completely at ease in her heart.

This time, whether it was a coincidence or not, he was taken aback.

He has already decided to bring another 50 taels of silver tomorrow to thank the master.

At this moment, the butler A Fu rushed in anxiously.

"what happened again?"

Seeing the other party's pale face, Wang Bozhen's heart skipped a beat.

"Master, I just heard from people that at noon yesterday, in the Xinghua Forest in Xinghualing in the suburbs, merchants from other places were robbed. A group of bandits looted all their belongings, and all the merchants' families were killed!"

boom!

The teacup in Wang Bozhen's hand fell to the ground, ceramic shards splashed everywhere, and the tea also wet the hem of his clothes.

But he didn't seem to see it, and the hand holding the teacup couldn't help shaking.

Yesterday, at noon, Xinghualing, Xinghualin...

If he didn't choose to detour, would he be the one who died?

Thinking of this, Wang Bozhen looked up at her butler with a pale face.

Unexpectedly, the other party also looked directly at him.

"The master is really blessed and lucky. He has avoided two catastrophes in a row. He is really blessed by God!"

Hearing the butler's words, Wang Bozhen fell into deep thought for an instant.

Detour when encountering mountains, but not crossing when encountering water!

The fortune teller directly foresaw his two catastrophes. The previous one could be said to be a fluke, but the two consecutive times can only show that the other party has real skills.

Thinking of this, Wang Bozhen's eyes lit up.

"Ah Fu, hurry up to the cashier and pay 2000 taels of silver. In addition, find someone to order a pair of plaques, and on the plaques will be written the eight characters of iron mouth and magic calculation!"

Hearing his master's words, Ah Fu's expression was shocked.

"Sir, you mean..."

He wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by his master.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and eat! This time, your master and I have met an expert!"

Before, he was still feeling distressed at spending 50 taels of silver for twelve characters.

But now, he just wanted to shout in his heart: It's worth it!

After finding a noodle shop and having a casual meal, Ye Xiaotian was still sitting at the booth, lazily looking at the book in his hand.

These are real ancient books.

In the past in Xiangcheng, if you want to see it, you have to go to a museum, and it may not be true.

In addition, he discovered that some ancient books were very different from those he saw in later generations.

For example, the Taoist classics he sees in his hand are very different from those he saw in later generations.

It is said that the "Tao Te Ching" unearthed at Mawangdui in later generations is very different from the earlier silk books.

The most typical one is that what is said in the handed down version is late blooming, but what is recorded in the silk script version is that the great implement is never matured.

The difference in this word, but the meanings in it are very different.

As the saying goes: people follow the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.

Chapter 220 The Goodness Is Like Water, Water is Good to Everything and Still

What is achieved by nature is the real great talent.Uncut plants and trees are the most attractive.

And those that have been carefully crafted, no matter how delicate they are, always lack a natural beauty.

After the change, the late bloomers emphasize more on the hard work of the day after tomorrow, accumulating over time, and finally achieving talents.

The revised "Tao Te Ching" obviously runs counter to the advocacy of nature pursued by Taoism.

In addition, there is another place, which is recorded in the silk book version, "the highest goodness is like water, water is good to all things and there is tranquility."

And in the current version handed down, this was changed to "The highest kindness is like water, and water is good for all things without fighting for it!"

One is quiet and the other is indisputable, although the meanings seem to be very close.But obviously, Youjing is more in line with Lao Tzu's superior wisdom.

Ye Xiaotian was watching with relish, when suddenly there was a loud sound of gongs and drums.

The sound was getting closer and soon became a little noisy.

Ye Xiaotian frowned slightly, and looked up.

It turned out that it was the wealthy businessman whom he had told his fortune before, who was leading a group of people to beat and beat in front of his booth.

Seeing that there was something lively to watch, the crowd of onlookers immediately surrounded his small stall.

Wang Bozhen, who was smiling, waved his right hand down lightly, and the sound of beating gongs and drums around him stopped instantly.

"Master's ingenious plan, saved my life twice in a row? I am very grateful, and I will prepare a small gift. I hope you will not dislike me!"

As he spoke, he motioned to the servants behind him to lift up the plaque he had prepared earlier.

At this time, the plaque was covered with a red cloth, and everyone couldn't see what was written inside.

But despite this, the surrounding crowd still stood on tiptoe and tried to look inside, as if they wanted to see a big hole in the plaque.

Wang Bozhen uncovered the red cloth on the plaque.

[Tiekou Shenduan, magical calculation] The eight words appeared in front of everyone in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, he took a tray from the butler.

Gently put the tray on Ye Xiaotian's table, and after he lifted the red cloth covering the tray, there were bursts of inhalation sounds from around.

On the tray was a full 2000 taels of silver!

In this day and age, an ordinary family spends only a few dozen taels of silver a year. How have they ever seen so much money?

With his expression still calm, Ye Xiaotian pushed the tray away.

"You don't get paid for nothing, the previous transaction between you and me has been completed, you should take it back!"

Wang Bozhen originally wanted to establish a good relationship with him, how could he take back the money.

"Master's words are wrong. As the saying goes, the favor of saving life should be repaid by the spring! You saved me twice in a row, and you deserve these.

The master's means are as high as the sky, and I would like to ask you to count it.It would be great if you can get one or two magic tools to keep you safe. Of course, these prices are calculated separately! "

Ye Xiaotian fell into deep thought.

He now needs to increase his reputation and let more people know about him, although he will not let this opportunity go.

"Well, as I said before, I will charge you 50 taels of silver for one favor! I will add another hexagram for you, and add five safety symbols, and I will charge you a total of 100 taels of silver. I will accept the plaque." , take back the rest of the money!"

Hearing what the master said, Wang Bozhen had no choice but to nod and agree.

In his heart, he was also very happy at this time.

Unexpectedly, there were unexpected surprises.

This master is so powerful, his safety talisman is definitely not ordinary.

Ye Xiaotian looked at the other person's face carefully, and then spoke.

"Once this catastrophe is over, although there will be minor twists and turns in the future, as long as you do good deeds, your life will be safe and smooth!"

As he spoke, he took out five peace charms from his cloth bag and put them on the table.

Hearing Ye Xiaotian's words, Wang Bozhen was extremely happy.

In order not to delay the master's business, Wang Bozhen left the silver and plaque and left with gratitude.

Before leaving, he also reminded him that the master can go to the king's house in the east of the town to find him at any time if he has an order.

When Wang Bozhen left, the crowd of onlookers, who had been densely packed before, dispersed with a lot of interest.

Today, they can be regarded as seeing, seeing how the rich spend their money.

They even got to know the fortune-teller in front of them again.

In the past, he was only regarded as a liar, but today, even the local wealthy businessman Wang Baizhen highly respected the master, how could he be a liar? !

After this matter fermented, Ye Xiaotian's business miraculously began to improve.

Although his fees are still very expensive, some people in the town can't afford the money, but they don't believe that he has the ability.

Now that he has proven his strength with practical actions, of course someone will come to him.
