Wan Ketan opened his mouth to scold, but coughed violently. He was out of breath, and once bowed and twitched, like a freshwater shrimp struggling on the shore.
Chu Qianli's tone was casual just now, she was a little flustered at this time, subconsciously looked at the door, and reminded: "Wait a minute, don't touch Ci, the day I count is not today, don't make trouble for me, at least wait until I leave Sick?"
"I have to go to class on Monday, so I can't be questioned by the police!" Chu Qianli was afraid that Wan Ketan would faint on the spot, so she jumped into the Yellow River and became a suspect inexplicably.
Wan Ketan coughed even worse when he heard this. He took a deep breath, and it took him a long time to calm down. He sneered and said, "Then your level is not very good, and you still suspect that you are not accurate?"
"It's not that I suspect that I didn't calculate correctly, it's that I suspect that you want to act to defeat fate and directly advance the date."
"..."
Wan Ketan has never seen such an impolite child. If he hadn't been in poor health recently, he would be beating people with a cane in anger.
Wang Ping's previous evaluation was very accurate. If Chu Qianli's words made people unhappy, it was definitely not because she had low EQ. It was because she deliberately made people angry.
Wan Ketan was too lazy to bicker with the little girl, he pondered for a long time, and asked, "How long has Chu Yili been dead?"
Chu Qianli answered vaguely: "In recent years."
"Hmph, he had a great reputation among his colleagues back then, but in his later years he was nothing more than that." Wan Ketan mocked, "I thought he was capable!"
When Chu Qianli heard him belittle grandpa, her eyes flickered slightly, and she raised her eyes and said, "What do you mean by 'not so much'?"
"I can't break through my own lifespan, isn't that just that?"
Chu Qianli teased coolly: "Don't you think it's easy to break through your lifespan? You still follow others to light seven-star lamps. Zhuge Kongming hasn't changed your lifespan. Do you think you deserve it?"
"Everyone is going to die. After learning these things, I have seen so many births, old ages, illnesses and deaths, and it's my turn not to accept it?" Chu Qianli said, "It's an old double standard. Grandpa understands better than you anyway, but you are the one who is like this."
Wan Ketan tried to light the seven-star lamp in vain to continue his life, but Chu Qianli just wanted to laugh after watching it on the second floor.
Wan Ketan was punctured, but he was not annoyed. Instead, he said coldly: "Little girl, it's easy to say, then I will let you die now, can you be willing?"
Chu Qianli was silent for a moment, then replied: "Yes, I can't."
"That's right, no one can be reconciled!" Wan Ketan suddenly became agitated, his voice panting, and he said loudly, "Others don't understand, but you should know what it feels like to have few days, we all Practitioners must of course find a way to change."
Wan Ketan's eyes were shining brightly, like a person drifting at sea, trying to grab the last survival board.
Seeing this scene, Chu Qianli tilted her head slightly, and said calmly: "Sure enough, the book is right. Hope to feel that you are important is also one of the differences between humans and other animals."
"what?"
"In the life of heaven and earth, people are the most precious. Of course, these are words written by humans. If you let cats write them, it may mean that in the life of heaven and earth, cats are the most precious." Chu Qianli said calmly, "You feel that you are the one who cultivates. People, those are even more precious people, it’s normal to have such thoughts.”
Numerology researchers have a big problem, which is to predict and deduce their own affairs. They are easy to divination for others, but if they speculate about their own affairs, it is easy to add emotional color, which is a big taboo in divination.
Once things touch one's own emotions and interests, people will fluctuate violently, which is human nature.
When people are chaotic, the hexagram is chaotic.
"My expression just now may have misunderstood you. It should be changed to 'I can't, but I can'. From the subjective emotion, I can't accept death; from the objective law, I can accept it." Chu Qianli added, "It doesn't mean I'm pessimistic, but what I've learned tells me that maybe my death was justified."
"Unlike you, I've already died once, so I know I'm special, but it's really not that important."
If it was Chu Qianli in the previous life, she might be like Wan Ketan, anxious and impatient all day long, unwilling to believe that she, who is so talented, must disappear. She also racked her brains to change, but under the giant curtain of heaven, no matter how special people are, they are so small.
Because of this, she can now calmly look at life and death, analyze all this more objectively, and regain the ability to ask herself.
The room fell silent, and the air seemed stagnant.
After a while, Wan Ketan's eyes were slightly cold, and he stretched out his hand to Chu Qianli, and said lightly: "That's just right, since you don't want to live anymore, return the compass to me, and leave the opportunity to those who want to live people."
Chu Qianli complained: "...When did I say that I don't want to live? You have a problem with your comprehension. Why is it always black and white?"
Chu Qianli said that putting aside personal emotions to think, Wan Ketan directly blocked her from wanting to live.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Wan Ketan said angrily, "The compass is originally the token of the head of Haomen. It was left by the first head of Haomen, and it carried what the ancestor master had learned all his life. It’s all about benevolence and righteousness, and you’re not from Haomen, so why are you holding a compass!?”
Chu Qianli: "...Does that mean you don't want to pursue it? That means you can't find grandpa?"
"It's ridiculous, I just explained a big truth, but when it comes to life and death, why don't you just hold on to the compass!"
"No, old man, let's talk about the truth. Inheritance must follow the rules. You are not related to my grandfather, so why ask for a compass? You don't know the law!" Chu Qianli said anxiously, "Besides, you are half One foot into the coffin, it will be troublesome for me to get back the compass after you die, why bother?"
Wan Ketan was so excited by her that he almost jumped up, and said angrily: "Shut up! When I get the compass, everything will be different!"
"If this thing is useful, grandpa and I would have changed our fates long ago. Will it be your turn?"
"That's because you are ignorant and have limited ability. Naturally, you can't understand the essence of the patriarch. I am different from you!"
"Tsk, it's really different, more confident than us." Chu Qianli raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, I will burn paper to tell you when I have researched the results in the future. It is really useless for you to use a compass, so you might as well rely on me."
Wan Ketan is obsessed with obsession without a compass, just like a drowned person who wants to hold on to straws and refuses to believe Chu Qianli's words.
The two choked on each other, neither of them convinced the other, and the dispute became fierce.
Wan Ketan's eyes were sharp, he cast his gaze to one side, narrowed his eagle eyes slightly, and said sharply: "The compass should be in your bag, right?"
Chu Qianli's expression changed slightly, she touched her bag subconsciously, and suddenly became quiet.
Wan Ketan said confidently: "Since we disagree with each other, why not use the compass as a bet and compare who is more accurate? If anyone wins the competition, he will take the compass away."
Chu Qianli muttered: "You are really good at calculating, and you still want to be a white wolf? The compass is mine, why do you have to bet with you?"
"Of course I won't let you gamble in vain." Wan Ketan put a few old books on the table casually, and said calmly, "This is the secret method of Ziwei passed down by our sect, and the deeds of the patriarch. If you are really better than me, I will offer it with both hands, willing to bow down."
When Chu Qianli heard the words, he opened a book suspiciously, and found the familiar handwriting on the ancient book, his heart moved slightly, and he looked at it seriously.
After a while, she could only burst out laughing: "Old man, who are you fooling, these are my grandfather's words, I dare you to learn what is left of him!"
Wan Ketan said angrily: "You..."
"If you like these, I'll send you another box another day. I can't see that you have a deep affection for my grandpa." Chu Qianli clapped his hands and sighed, "I don't even bother to tidy them up, but you kept them well, it really amused me .”
What Chu Qianli didn't say was that even though the old book was written by her grandfather, she hadn't read the contents of it. They only talked about Ziwei Doushu at the beginning, but not about the history of the sect's fortune. These pamphlets recorded Haomen.
Hearing her wanton laughter, Wan Ketan couldn't tell how much Chu Yizheng had revealed for a while, so he said in a deep voice, "Then what do you want to bet on?"
"These are not enough, we need to add more." Chu Qianli glanced at the old book and asked, "Gambling?"
Wan Ketan immediately stared: "Why are you acting like a vulgar mortal!?"
"Hey, let's save some coffin books. Now if you don't have money, you won't have a cemetery. You can't even afford to die. Don't you have to make some money?"
"..."
Wan Ketan had already left the stage of chatting about money. He took out a whole set of emerald Taoist Eight Treasures and put them on the pile of old books as a bet for fortune-telling.
Chu Qianli stared blankly at the vivid jadeite. The combination of expensive jade and Taoist culture is really full of ancient charm and ingenuity. She said with emotion: "Your burial object is really good, but it will be mine later."
Wan Ketan: "It's really shameless."
"Just to be on the safe side, let's record it. If I take away the emerald, you call the police." Chu Qianli lifted the schoolbag and reconfirmed, "Use the compass in these gambling bags?"
"right."
"Compared to what?"
Wan Ketan moved his fingers slightly, he stared straight at Chu Qianli for a long time, and smiled maliciously: "Little girl, you still have two years to go, others may be able to make good fortune by doing good deeds, but you..."
Chu Qianli said calmly: "Do you want to talk about this again? I didn't go to elementary school and I figured this out. Let's talk about things I don't know, such as the exact date, what kind of accident, and the way to solve it. Then I might give you a high opinion."
Wan Ketan heard that she had no fear of life and death, but fell into silence for a while, not understanding why she was so big-hearted.
Chu Qianli smiled and said, "Can't you figure it out? Then why do you keep mentioning this, but if you're curious, I can help you count the day when you died of some kind of illness."
"You can't figure out mine, but I can figure out yours, because I'm afraid you won't dare to listen." Chu Qianli wrote lightly, "...do you want to listen?"
Regardless of Chu Qianli's young age, she can be regarded as a senior in matters of life and death, and her mentality is far better than that of Wan Ketan.
Wan Ketan stared at her, he clenched his fists stiffly, but in the end he didn't speak.
Wan Ketan pretended to be calm and took a copper coin, didn't mention the matter of life expectancy, and said, "Don't make it so complicated, just use the simplest one, guess heads and tails three times in a row, how about it?"
Wan Ketan suggested that the two of them write out the results on paper, and then throw copper coins three times in a row to see if there is any discrepancy with the prediction.
"The most superb skills are shown in the simplest way?" Chu Qianli nodded, "Yes, but what if the guess is the same?"
"Then choose another method."
The two finished writing in just a few seconds, and put the note aside casually. The time was so short that they couldn't figure it out, it was all based on their feelings at the moment.
Once the pen is written, it cannot be changed, and it is useless to continue to count.
In any divination, you have to look for things to enter the hexagram, and the most difficult thing is nothing more than a sudden inspiration. This feeling is similar to the inspiration of painting and sculpture, which has nothing to do with techniques, but spirituality.
The ancients saw two sparrows arguing on a branch and felt it, and predicted that someone would fall from the tree the next day. This is the principle. The results of divination have nothing to do with the hexagram questions, it is simply a person grasping the vision in the environment.
As soon as Chu Qianli entered the room, she knew that Wan Ketan had already made preparations. This is the place where he cleans up and he is most familiar with all kinds of displays. Even the place where she sits may be included in the hexagram.
Competitive divination itself is information warfare, to see who can obtain more information with a small amount of information, and predict the opponent's prediction first.
The time for the copper coins to fall is extremely short, not to mention guessing the hexagram three times in a row, the accuracy rate is even lower.
"coming."
Wan Ketan raised his hand to indicate that the copper coin was spinning in mid-air, then circling on the table, and finally stopped steadily, which was exactly the front side with the words on it.
Wan Ketan glanced at his note, just in time for the predicted result, and became more composed. He pushed the copper coins on the table towards Chu Qianli and said, "You throw it instead."
Chu Qianli picked up the copper coin and asked curiously: "What did you guess?"
After both parties have finished writing the answers, it is meaningless to cover up.
Wan Ketan said generously: "Pros and cons."
Chu Qianli was stunned: "Two flowers and one character are Shaoyin, it's not good to cast this."
"Isn't that what you guessed?"
Chu Qianli threw the copper coin in the air, and said casually: "No, people who are about to die don't guess this kind of result."
The second time the copper coin is spinning in the air, this time falling is the opposite of the flower.
Seeing this, Wan Ketan became even more certain that his prediction was correct, and said with a sneer, "Then you're doomed. I didn't expect you wouldn't even make it to the second round."
"Ziwei's divination always pays attention to precise prediction, and sometimes the process may be more important than the result." Chu Qianli returned the copper coin to the other party, and suggested, "You can come for the third time."
"I can let you vote, but the result will not change anyway."
"Don't, I'm afraid you will say I cheated later."
Wan Ketan took the copper coins suspiciously, pondering Chu Qianli's words in his mind, and even missed the coin insertion, which was not as smooth as last time.
The spinning copper coin knocked on the tea table, but it didn't stop steadily. Instead, it jumped up and flew directly to the incense altar next to it, inserted obliquely into the incense ash, and stood at a slight angle!
Wan Ketan saw this scene, he stretched out his hand to take the copper coins: "This time it doesn't count, next time you come."
Chu Qianli quickly blocked the opponent's hand. She did not allow him to touch the copper coins, and stopped him with a startled voice: "Are you kidding me? Why doesn't it count?"
Wan Ketan looked at the copper coin standing in the incense altar, he immediately frowned, and reminded: "You can see clearly, it didn't fall, if it is really counted this time, it is also the opposite!"
The copper coin is tilted on the incense altar. If it falls flat, it may be tails. Three times it happens to be "heads and tails".
"Who said it's tails?" Chu Qianli flipped over the note in his hand, and it read "Head, Tail, Neither" on it, which was exactly the same as the result of a copper coin.
She smiled and said: "One positive and one negative, one yin and one yang, it's undecided, just perfect."
Wan Ketan saw the contents of her paper clearly, he got up in disbelief, and said angrily: "You didn't write like that! That's obviously the opposite!"
"Be anxious, be anxious, even if you renege on your debt..." Chu Qianli argued, "It didn't fall at all, so why do you say it is against it?"
"Then throw it again, this time it won't count!"
"I wrote it clearly, and now you're starting to be lazy again, so you can throw it away no matter how many times you throw it away." Chu Qianli reached out to hug the old book and the eight emerald treasures next to him, and said disdainfully, "I'm too lazy to be as knowledgeable as you, so I packed up and went home , I haven't written my homework yet."
Wan Ketan saw that she was trying to run with something, and he was about to pull it while leaning on crutches, but suddenly seeing her take out the compass from the schoolbag, he couldn't help but froze in astonishment!
Chu Qianli waved the compass high in one hand, and stuffed old books and jadeite into her schoolbag with the other. She was still jumping up and down actively, and whispered deliberately: "Look at this? What is this?"
Wan Ketan saw the compass being thrown back and forth by her. He was so startled that sweat broke out on his forehead and his back felt cold. He hurriedly shouted: "Don't lose it like this, don't lose it like this, are you crazy!? This is an old thing!"
The compass pays attention to precision, and it will not be allowed if it is slightly bumped, and it needs technology to repair it.
Chu Qianli was just like a child with a bad personality, she didn't know how to cherish it at all, and played acrobatics with a compass on the spot, only to make Wan Ketan jump in anger!
Chu Qianli tossed the compass flamboyantly, and she raised her chin quite complacently: "Is my skill okay?"
Wan Ketan stared at the compass, fearing that she would miss it, his voice trembled in panic: "Don't throw it around like this, don't play around like this..."
"You lost when I entered the house, but you didn't know it. You want to live too much, but I don't want to live that much. Whoever is read first will lose."
Chu Qianli threw up the compass at will, she looked into the air, and said thoughtfully: "Actually, it doesn't matter if I die or not, but I don't want to wait for my people to be sad, and I don't want them to feel sad for me one day..."
Chu Qianli caught the compass steadily, and she slammed it against the wall in front of Wan Ketan, and said with a smile, "I don't like others to lose face for me, so choose to live!"
The compass made a dull sound on the wall, and then it fell apart like sparks exploding!
Wan Ketan's face was pale and white, he almost didn't come up in one breath, his eyes were cracked and he said: "No——"
Wan Ketan rushed to rescue the wreckage of the compass, Chu Qianli picked up his schoolbag and ran out without even bringing his head back.
Outside the house, Tan Muxing saw her rushing out, he had been waiting for a long time, and said in surprise: "It's over?"
"Slip away, the old man has gone crazy." Chu Qianli gloated, she waved her hand to urge Tan Muxing to follow, and rushed downstairs in a hurry.
Tan Muxing didn't know why, he only heard Wan Ketan's hissing and roaring, and he didn't know how the bear boy provoked him.
The people outside originally wanted to stop the two high school students, but Uncle Qi had already rushed up with people, and the scene was chaotic.
Wan Ketan in the house yelled to find a repairman. Others couldn't care about Chu Qianli and others anymore, so they could only let them go and go into the house to appease Master Wan.
Chu Qianli and Tan Muxing went downstairs easily under cover, even passing the dimly lit second floor of the villa.
When Chu Qianli saw the Seven Star Lantern, he was still in the mood to take a look, before leaving.
"If he really believes this, he has to watch the lights after he's busy today, and he has to turn off two lights tonight." Chu Qianli said lightly, "I respect the elders and don't play with other lights, but don't go to me if you want to turn off the lights yourself." Lay on your head."
The others looked at each other when they heard the words, not knowing how to respond.
After Chu Qianli finished speaking, she got into the car with Tan Muxing, and the car door was closed to block the two of them.
The convoy started slowly and drove away from the community one by one. No one dared to stop the scene.
In the car, Chu Qianli opened her schoolbag. After checking her things, she reached out to Tan Muxing.
Tan Muxing didn't wait for her tablemate to speak, so she took the initiative to return the red crystal compass to her. He found that her bag was messy, and said helplessly, "I said, why do you think it's too heavy, and you actually carry so many things?"
Other high school seniors pretended to be homework, and their deskmates also pretended to be other things.
Chu Qianli's schoolbag is filled with all kinds of tarot cards. She has recently studied the red crystal compass and started to buy Taoist furniture frequently, which is exactly the same as the habit of astrology apprentices.
No matter what the research results are, the two of them never buy a lot of research tools. Chu Qianli said that expensive Tarot cards harvest IQ tax, and at the same time, he started to buy new cards or new versions when he saw them, and bought them while scolding them perfectly.
"Hee hee, I used up one compass today, and I can buy a new one." Chu Qianli took out her mobile phone, touched her chin, and began to ponder, "Let me see what I can buy this time."
"What are you talking about in the house?"
"Exchange the funeral objects." Chu Qianli raised his head and asked, "By the way, what kind of tea does the old man like to drink?"
"Everyone has different tastes. My grandpa likes Pu'er, and my grandma likes black tea." Tan Muxing scratched his head and said, "The price of tea is also different. You can also subdivide the grades, depending on what you use it for."
"It's just tomb-sweeping, it's cheaper, or milk tea."
Tan Muxing: "?"
