After Qiu Qingkong listened to Chu Qianli's science popularization, she was a little dazed for a while, and asked in surprise: "Why do the goddesses care about giving birth?"

"You asked this question..." Chu Qianli, as a believer in Marxism, didn't know how to explain the division of labor between gods and gods, so she said casually, "Male gods don't have this ability?"

Qiu Qingkong thought it was reasonable, she finally offered incense to Bixia Yuanjun, and murmured: "Then what, Bixia Yuanjun, forget about your wish, I just wish you well, don't give me anything... "

Chu Qianli was confused when she heard it. She waited for Qiu Qingkong to finish offering incense, and then accompanied him to leave Yuanjun Palace, and then said: "You didn't make a wish, why did you offer incense?"

Qiu Qingkong plausibly said: "This is a goddess, we have to call her, we can't let her be compared in the Taoist temple! Male gods have incense, female gods must also have, this is the power of support!"

"..."

Chu Qianli's eyes were dazed, she didn't know whether Qiu Qingkong believed in this or not, but if the other party really believed in this, why did he apply the rules of fan circle voting to the gods

Outside the hall, Tan Muxing was standing waiting, and the three of them went to Wenchang Hall again. After Qiu Qingkong prayed for success in the midterm exam, she ran to join her friends and prepared to walk slowly down the mountain.

The environment in the Taoist temple is quiet and sparsely populated. Chu Qianli looked around curiously and asked, "Are there any houses here that used to be yours?"

Tan Muxing shook his head: "This is the area of the Taoist temple, and the buildings left by the family are on the other side. Now it is the place where the staff of the scenic spot work."

The three of them walked along the path, but suddenly heard the sound of arguing.

In the low building next to the bamboo forest, a Taoist priest was surrounded by several people, and he was struggling with entanglement and could not escape.

A group of people wore brand-name clothes, and the middle-aged man at the head had thinning hair and a big belly. He pulled the Taoist priest with anxiety, and said hoarsely: "Taoist priest, I beg you, just let me see the master, this will save my life." You can't just let my family die!"

Taoist: "Hey, what you said is serious..."

The people next to him chimed in: "How many times we have gone up the mountain, the situation is serious now."

"Yes, yes, you are also a practitioner, so show kindness!"

The Taoist priest was troubled by a group of people. He walked out helplessly, but was blocked by the group of people again.

Tan Muxing noticed the chaotic situation ahead, and recognized the middle-aged man at the head at a glance, his face changed slightly and his brows frowned. He sighed softly and suggested, "Shall we change the way?"

Qiu Qingkong stopped, and she looked into the distance: "What's going on in front?"

Chu Qianli was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked suspiciously: "It should be a matter of the Taoist temple, and it has nothing to do with us?"

Tan Muxing said with a headache: "No, those people came to my house not long ago, I'm not sure if he remembers me, so it's better to walk around..."

"Is it someone you know?"

"I can't say I know each other." Tan Muxing scratched his head, "My family is not very familiar with the Taoist temple, but people always come to ask my family to find the masters on the mountain. My grandfather later got bored and moved to the middle of the mountain, because he just didn't want to talk to these people. people."

Wealthy people are often superstitious about feng shui fortune-telling, and change their lives by changing their names when they have nothing to do, and they are especially particular about doing business. The northern part of the country is famous for its dry mountains, but not everyone has connections, of course they will ask the Tan family to find a master of the dry door.

He Jianping was one of them at the beginning, and was later introduced to Chu Qianli by Tan Muxing.

Qiu Qingkong: "I heard that they are very urgent? Why don't you help?"

Tan Muxing looked embarrassed. He glanced at the crowd not far away to confirm that the other party hadn't found them, and then he whispered: "Don't believe this kind of person. This boss Zhang is from the south. It is said that he is a local beggar. If you don’t find people, you will come all the way to the north.”

"He now says that his family will die, but my family says that he was not a good person before. Once he got rich, he abandoned his wife and daughter and found someone else. He also cheated many old friends in business. Anyway, his reputation is very bad."

Tan Muxing lowered his eyes and said: "That's why I don't believe in incense. If anyone's wish for incense comes true, then the gods are too utilitarian?"

"Isn't this just like people, whoever pays can do things for them, what kind of god is that?"

Another important reason for Tan Muxing's indifference to metaphysics is that he has seen too many people who want to rely on fortune-telling to pursue fame and fortune. He thinks this is too ironic, as long as you have money, you can change your life. It turns out that a person's life can be quantified by money, so he still doesn't believe it.

Chu Qianli: "I can understand your thoughts, but a fortune teller is also a human being. If he is really willing to spend a lot of money to calculate, there is no reason to ask from the south to the north, right? There must be a reason for this?"

"I don't know." Tan Muxing thought, "But he was indeed looking for a master from the south before, I don't know why he came to the north now."

Boss Zhang is still leading people to pester the Taoist priest. Chu Qianli and the others hid behind the bamboo forest. They stood behind and chatted, but they were not found.

In the low building on one side, the fragrance of tea is overflowing, and the chess is played silently. The old man casually put down a black chess piece. He looked at someone by the window and urged, "It's your turn."

At the window, the young Taoist priest looked at the situation across the window and said, "Master, they haven't left yet."

The old way: "Don't panic, your little uncle can beat five with one."

"They went up the mountain every day of the week."

"It's useless for them to go up the mountain every day this year. This is the hexagram of life and death, otherwise someone would have picked it up."

Boss Zhang is willing to spend huge sums of money to find masters, as long as the financial ability is in place, not to mention whether there are masters, scammers should come to him. This matter has not been resolved until now, entirely because of the involvement of human life.

People who practice metaphysics also love money, but they still have some taboos, and they should not touch the hexagram of life and death casually. Life or death is a complex cause and effect, not everyone can handle it.

Seeing the young Taoist priest not coming back to play chess for a long time, the old Taoist also strolled to the window to look across, looked at Boss Zhang and others in the front left, and glimpsed Tan Muxing and others in the rear right, and said in a daze: "Yo, how could I bump into you?" The little friend at the foot of the mountain, and the friends of the little friend..."

"Little friend at the bottom of the mountain?" The young Taoist asked suspiciously, "Is that the family at the bottom of the mountain?"

"That's right, this mountain used to belong to other people, but later it became the country's." The old man stared at Tan Muxing with a bitter smile, "Oh, when it comes to karma, I'm still carrying his karma."

"What cause and effect?"

"It's nothing more than doing bad things with good intentions. Some bad things should not be known by the person concerned, but they are just heard. This is called good fortune. I have been reflecting on it, but I don't know how to make up for it." The old man sighed.

Young Taoist priest: "Why can't the person involved know? If he knew in advance, wouldn't he be able to avoid evil."

"Zai Yuan, you are still too young. There is a saying that all drowned people can swim. You think you can seek good luck and avoid bad luck, but what if there is a hint?" But one day the result is unacceptable, what should I do?"

The young Taoist priest was silent for a moment, then replied: "Then find a way to crack it."

The old way: "To put it bluntly, what should you do if you can't figure out the solution?"

The young Taoist said nothing.

The old Taoist saw his apprentice fell into hard thinking, he couldn't help laughing: "People at the bottom of the mountain can still say that they don't believe it, but you haven't miscalculated, so you can't believe it!"

The young Taoist was helpless: "Then what should we do?"

"It's nothing to do, it's just like this. Some people can live smoothly without touching these things all their lives, and some people can't end well if they study spells all their lives. It's so easy to understand, so can it be called life?"

The old man waved his hands freely: "What are you counting? It's all in vain. It's all blind calculations. You even spend money to go up the mountain to find a master. The master may not be able to figure himself out!"

Beside the bamboo forest, Chu Qianli peeked out, but the person in front hadn't left yet.

Tan Muxing proposed to change the course and go down the mountain in another direction.

Qiu Qingkong worried: "But isn't it very miserable for the priest to be surrounded? Does the people in the scenic spot care?"

Tan Muxing: "Shall we call the security guard?"

Chu Qianli was watching the play and eating melons, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, don't worry, the Taoist priest is rolling up his sleeves!"

Not far away, the Taoist priest was very annoyed by being disturbed, he finally rolled up his sleeves, put on a capable posture, and said seriously: "Boss Zhang, there is something I didn't tell you just now, Pindao was a Lianjiazi before he entered the Taoist temple. of."

Seeing that the situation was not right, Boss Zhang and the others dispersed like birds and beasts in an instant, making way for the Taoist priest.

Chu Qianli regretted: "I haven't seen the Taoist priest's martial arts yet."

Tan Muxing led her away feebly: "Don't watch the excitement and you won't be afraid of big troubles."

The three of them finished their tour of Ganshan, and they went home by car not long after.

The weekend before the midterm exam was quite short, and Chu Qianli was very nervous because he had the exam in two days.

On the day of the midterm exam, the students who arrived early gathered outside the teaching building. They stood on the playground and chatted. When the exam room opened, they entered the building and went to different classrooms.

Chu Qianli was wandering in the corner in a daze, holding the review materials in her hands, looking extremely anxious.

It was rare for Tan Muxing to see her so tense, and asked doubtfully, "Are you not so panicked before?"

"Oh, I didn't do well in the exam before. It can be said that I didn't study. Now I have no excuse!" Chu Qianli sighed, "Are you finally going to expose the fact that I'm not smart?"

Talking about Mu Xing: "..."

Seeing her anxiously wandering around, Tan Muxing suggested in a good voice: "Why don't you calculate the result and find some psychological comfort?"

"I deliberately didn't even look at the astronomical chart this morning. If the calculation is not good, my mentality will completely collapse."

Chu Qianli just finished her daily divination. She didn't even dare to pay attention to the astronomical chart. The main reason was that she processed information too quickly, so she didn't need to do divination occasionally.

This is her strength and weakness. Fortune-telling and divination are very accurate, but all kinds of information are pervasive, and it is difficult to block it.

Tan Muxing thought for a while and said, "Then you say 'I will definitely do well in the exam'?"

"I'm sure I'll do well in the exam." Chu Qianli followed suit subconsciously, and asked strangely, "Is this to cheer yourself up? Or is it like in the cartoon that you have to shout before you zoom in?"

Tan Muxing smiled and said: "The number one astrologer in the world said that you will do well in the exam, so there should be no problem. You have been studying the exams recently, and you will definitely improve."

Chu Qianli muttered: "... you are coaxing children."

She didn't even dare to count the test results, and it was useless to say this now.

However, when Chu Qianli was interrupted by her deskmate, her psychological pressure was relieved. When she heard the bell ringing in the teaching building, she rushed into the examination room with the crowd.

The classmates in the class were completely disrupted. Everyone was distributed in different examination rooms, and they didn't even know the people around them.

In the classroom, all the tables and chairs have been rearranged and disassembled into single seats. The distance between adjacent seats is also very far, and the front and rear tables are not even close to each other.

Qi Yan pushed his glasses, turned to look at Chu Qianli, and smiled kindly: "Long time no see."

Qi Yan hasn't met Chu Qianli for a long time, one is because they are not in the same class, and the other is that He Shichen is obstructing, so there is really no chance to strike up a conversation. She did not expect that the two of them would have the opportunity to communicate in the same examination room.

Chu Qianli didn't wait for Qi Yan to say more, she thought about the identity of the heroine of the original book, and immediately looked solemn: "Can I shake hands with you?"

Qi Yan's eyes were puzzled, but facing Chu Qianli's hanging hand, she still stretched out her hand and gently shook it back: "It's possible, but is there a reason?"

Chu Qianli said earnestly: "Fate is in my hands, I shake hands with the first grader, so it should be regarded as my destiny?"

Qi Yan: "?"

When the others heard Chu Qianli's speech, they immediately got up and shouted: "Then I want to shake hands with you too! We also want to learn from God to bless you!"

Qi Yan: "???"

Qi Yan planned to chat with Chu Qianli for a while, but he didn't expect that there would be a handshake meeting in the examination room, and a group of people would shake hands with him for good luck.

She really wanted to persuade everyone not to be superstitious, but when she thought of Chu Qianli sitting next to her, she was afraid that the master would be sensitive to the word superstition, so she could only deal with the other candidates with a stiff smile.

Qi Yan begged Chu Qianli to let her do things, Chu Qianli begged Qi Yan to want to be a student, and he didn't know who was superstitious who.

There were three days in the mid-term exam, and Chu Qianli was dizzy after the exam. He didn't know what day and night it was, so he fell asleep when he returned home.

The school's machine-reading card grades the papers very quickly. The first half of the week is the exam, and the second half of the week is the ranking. There is no time delay. The first in the new grade is He Shichen, and the second in the grade is Qi Yan. I don't know if the latter has too much luck.

Chu Qianli looked at his own ranking and asked in confusion, "Is this good or bad?"

Her grade rank has risen a lot, but it is not clear which range she falls into.

Tan Muxing glanced at his grades and rankings. He couldn't say bluntly that he was middle-class, so he said euphemistically: "Forget it, your graduation certificate will definitely be fine. If you stick to it, you will have a good university. You have a lot of room for improvement."

Chu Qianli was originally at the bottom of the grade, but now he is slowly coming to the middle and lower classes, and he is making rapid progress. However, the higher the grade ranking, the more difficult it is to improve. The main thing is that there are gods fighting in front of them, and it is definitely not easy to make a surprise attack.

Chu Qianli only came here this semester, so how could she understand school rankings? Naturally, she would believe whatever her deskmate said, and she couldn't help cheering up in an instant: "That's okay."

Tan Muxing hurriedly said: "At the end of the term, you must persevere."

Chu Qianli flirted with each other as soon as she finished the exam. After she got rid of the bottom three in her grade, she was even more arrogant at home than He Shichen, who was the first in her grade, and the money printing machine couldn't help but want to reprimand her.

However, He Shichen couldn't scold him directly. After scolding, she started to get tired of studying again. Tan Muxing's persuasion plan failed, so he could only swallow his anger and not speak.

In the living room, He Shichen was sitting on the sofa quietly looking at his phone, but Chu Qianli came over suddenly, wanting to surprise him from behind, and shouted, "Hey, what are you looking at?"

When He Shichen heard her making a noise on purpose, he was not frightened. He frowned and said in a muffled voice, "Look up information online."

"Check what?"

"It's related to pedagogy." He Shichen added coldly, "How can you educate your children well without beating or scolding them?"

"..."

After the mid-term exam, campus life became more relaxed. Chu Qianli started to return to his old business, forming a magic card girl team with his partners, and even familiar old customers came to him.

Tan Muxing received He Jianping's voice, so he simply released the voice and sat on the playground with Chu Qianli to listen.

He Jianping said with a bit of embarrassment: "Mu Xing, and the little master, I want to ask you for help with such a matter. A boss from the south who has worked with me has been looking for the master everywhere, and now the question is coming to me..."

Tan Muxing immediately understood, and said softly, "It's that boss Zhang, Uncle Jianping, don't ask questions for him."

Nanfang Boss Zhang has almost annoyed everyone in the industry, and now Nanfang has been hurt by this person.

"Hey, understand, understand, your family must have been troubled, but he was really reluctant to ask everywhere. I didn't want to talk to the little master about it, so I just introduced him to the six-year-old man and sent him off on the spot. I just don’t want to take it because I think it’s bad luck!”

He Jianping sighed: "At first it was said that this matter would be over, who would have thought that he would inquire somewhere, and insisted that my affairs were not handled by those who counted as Liu Yao."

He Jianping knows how to measure, it is impossible for him to introduce bad people to Chu Qianli, but someone spread the news, and he will be entangled by scoundrels again.

He Jianping considered his words, and tentatively said: "That's what I'm thinking now, otherwise, the little master will meet with him, and then reject the person surnamed Zhang on the spot. Anyway, all the masters in Beijing reject him, so he will directly break his mind. haunt me..."

"Of course, I will definitely not let the little master come out of the mountain in vain. I will give any introduction fee and appearance fee, but it's up to you whether you want it or not. The person surnamed Zhang said that he wanted to meet now, but he was rejected by the six-year-old. There's no other way." He Jianping said cautiously, "It's such a thing, what does the little master think?"

Chu Qianli asked curiously, "Is there still an introduction fee and an appearance fee?"

Tan Muxing: "Why did you focus on this after listening?"

"Of course there is. I only found out recently. I heard that Nanfang Master asks for a higher price. It doesn't count that he has to pay just to see his apprentice! Just rush to see him!"

Chu Qianli looked at Tan Muxing and exclaimed, "Qiu Qingkong will still have a hidden side job in the future."

Talking about Mu Xingsi and the level of astrology apprentices, he felt that this was simply a scam: "..."

He Jianping carefully asked Chu Qianli for his opinion, but Chu Qianli agreed very happily: "Okay, then I will meet you. Maybe he didn't let me count after the meeting. He thinks I am young and unreliable."

He Jianping thought about his first impression of Chu Qianli, and he couldn't help feeling overwhelmed, and said awkwardly: "Oh, what did the little master say, how could such a thing happen? How could there be such a person?"

Tan Mu Xing smoothed things over: "Then let her and I go over on the weekend, are you still in the teahouse?"

"Yes, yes, you can come to the teahouse, we will cooperate with your time!"

He Jianping got a good result and quickly hung up the call.

Chu Qianli hesitated and said: "Are you going too? But didn't you say that you were in Qianshan last time, and I'm not sure if he still remembers you?"

Tan Muxing avoids Boss Zhang and the others in Qianshan, but now he has to go to the teahouse on weekends. It will be very troublesome if he is recognized.

Tan Muxing hesitated for a moment, and with a worried expression on his face, he whispered: "But I can't let you go alone?"

"What's the matter?" Chu Qianli said casually, "It's not like I haven't been to a teahouse before."

Tan Muxing saw her carefree, his eyes dropped to one side, he hesitated to say: "I'm afraid."

Chu Qianli was taken aback when he heard the words, he didn't understand, so he said, "What are you afraid of?"

Tan Muxing peeked at her uneasily, he struggled again and again, and confessed in embarrassment: "... I'm afraid you will be beaten."

Chu Qianli was stunned: "?"

Tan Muxing said worriedly: "Uncle Jianping is a reasonable person, but Boss Zhang is about to be pushed into a hurry, you may be beaten if you say a few words casually..."

Chu Qianli can usually drive He Shichen crazy, but she is really easy to be beaten when she is out of the house.

Tan Muxing didn't dare to let her go out alone, there was some reason why she was always pinched by her peers.

He really shouldn't go to the teahouse again, but her safety is more important.

Chu Qianli: "..."
