The girl was overjoyed when she heard this. He could not have thought that Yi Xingchen had really agreed to help her with a penny to do a fortune. Her heart was full of gratitude, and her eyes were a little wet. She hurriedly placed the penny carefully on the wooden box in front of Yi Xingchen. Then she sat down on the stool next to her, sniffed, and said, "I want to calculate, can my father have high school in this college exam?"

The college entrance examination was the lowest level in the Ming Dynasty imperial examination. Yi Xingchen still had some understanding of the ancient imperial examination system. The Ming Dynasty imperial examination was generally divided into three levels. The lowest level was the exam hosted by prefectures and counties, called the college entrance examination. The scholars who took the exam were called Tong Sheng, which did not refer to children. Among them, they might be an old man in his seventies and eighties who never passed the college entrance examination in his entire life.

The father of this girl should be only in his thirties or forties, and it is normal to take the child voice exam. It is really sad to have a person who has not passed the exam until he is thirty or forty. Judging from his daughter's miserable appearance, I am afraid that life at home will be very difficult.

Yi Xingchen really hoped to calculate for the other party that his father could pass the academy exam and become a scholar this time, so his family situation would be improved. Therefore, Yi Xingchen nodded and signaled to her, "You pray first, then pick up rice, I'll tell you a fortune and you'll know."

The girl nodded gratefully, folded her hands together, turned around to watch the fairy pavilion, closed her eyes and prayed silently. Then she turned around and picked up three small pieces of rice and put them on the plate.

Yi Xingchen counts the number and adds the hour to a hexagram, but Xun is the wind hexagram. The moving line is in the fourth line. After this hexagram flashes in Yi Xingchen's mind, he sighs because this hexagram is Xun Wood hexagram, and the change hexagram represents the result is Qian Jin hexagram. Gold overcomes wood and is very bad, which means that this thing cannot be accomplished. Therefore, his father cannot pass the exam this time.

Seeing Yi Xingchen stunned at the moment, the eager hope in the girl's eyes soon disappeared, tears began to fill her eyes and she whispered: "Banxian, is there no hope?"

Yi Xingchen really couldn't bear to make this girl so sad. Life was already so miserable. Eliminating her last hope was not a good thing for her and her family. Although honesty is a virtue, sometimes it will hurt people when they tell the truth. Therefore, Xingchen decided to tell a kind lie.

He said: "No, your father will definitely become a scholar, because the moving line of this hexagram is in the fourth line. The line in the Book of Changes says, "Repentance will lead to the third grade of the field." It means that there is no regret, and you will get a variety of animals when hunting. Of course, the meaning of the hexagram is not to let your father change his career and become a hunter, but to change his ways and do other things. You can also gain something through other ways. He has to change his thinking, not study hard, and perhaps he can become a scholar through other efforts."

After Yi Xingchen explained the hexagram like this, he just wanted to comfort her before this. After this, he couldn't help but feel moved, thinking that the explanation of the hexagram is not bad. Maybe he changed his thinking and didn't study hard, and he couldn't live until he was thirty or forty. He was afraid that the hope of living would be slim, and changing careers and doing something else might bring life to the family again. It might be a good thing to find a way to change the family and change the family's situation. He felt a little complacent about his thoughts on such a way to help her get out of trouble, although he didn't know if this would work.

Being a scholar is the greatest hope of this girl and his father. In that case, the family will not have to be corvee-service or pay taxes, and they will not have to kneel down when they see the county magistrate. Life will also get better, no matter what means you get such treatment, so the girl's face rejuvenated, wiped her tears, and smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you, then, what should my father do to become a scholar?"

Yi Xingchen just said this casually before and just wanted to comfort her and change her thinking, so he didn't think about what to do. Therefore, he smiled and said, "The hexagram only shows that he can change his thinking. He can achieve his goal by working hard from other ways. As for what method, the hexagram is not so clear. It's okay if he really wants to hunt. However, I guess he has been studying for so many years, but he is afraid that he can't even pull the bow open. He should not think about hunting. Other ways are also possible. If he thinks about it again, maybe he can think of a way and go back to discuss it with your father."

After hearing Yi Xingchen's words were so smooth and without giving a specific direction, the hope in the girl's eyes slowly disappeared. She lowered her head silently and turned around to leave.

Yi Xingchen saw the disappointment in her eyes. She probably thought in her heart that she must have made up things and wanted to coax her a penny casually, so she had no ability at all and couldn't figure out what to do. She was full of disappointment.

This aroused Yi Xingchen's competitive spirit. He didn't want people to think that he was an ignorant person. So he smiled faintly and said, "Girl, if there is nothing to do, go back early. There is a cemetery next to your house. You may be scared if you go back late, so you should go home early."

The woman was shocked, turned around and stared at Yi Xingchen in a daze. She didn't know why the fortune teller could accurately say that there was a grave next to their house? The housing prices in the city were very expensive, and they couldn't afford a good place. Because there were several tombs that had not been moved away, the land prices were very cheap, so they lived here.

Seeing her surprised look, Yi Xingchen knew that she was right, and smiled and said, "If I guess correctly, there is a well in the southeast of your house. And I also know that your name is on the head of the word "cao". Am I right?"

The girl was even more surprised and her eyes widened. She had never seen this fortune teller before, and had never seen him set up a stall here before. Why did she know exactly where she lives?

When Yi Xingchen saw her expression, he knew that he was right. He saw the disappointment from the girl just now. Yi Xingchen felt competitive in his heart. He didn't want the other party to look down on him, thinking that he was ignorant. Therefore, he grabbed three small handfuls of rice and raised a hexagram, which was Fengshui Huan hexagram, which was split. The lower hexagram is Zhenmu hexagram, which represents the southeast, and the upper hexagram is Genzu hexagram, which represents the tomb. The hexagram that represents the specific location is Kanshui hexagram, which means that there is water next to his residence.

Yi Xingchen smiled and said, "I said this, not for other purposes. I just want you to know that my fortune-telling is very accurate. So, you go back and discuss with your father as I said before. It should be able to help your father realize his dream of being a scholar, that's all. There is no other meaning. Okay, girl, you can leave." After that, Yi Xingchen sat down, stopped looking at her, and looked back at the Xian Pavilion.

The girl stayed for a while and walked back. Fuli said, "Young Master tells fortunes so accurately. The little girl admires her very much. She is also glad that she can get the advice of her master. Thank you. When you go back, you will definitely report this to your father and say goodbye." After that, Fuli turned around and lowered her head and walked quickly.

Yi Xingchen only thought this was an episode, so he didn't think about it anymore, and didn't know if his words could help the other party. In the next two days, he continued to stay at home, but he had gained something in the past two days. He found that some people from the martial arts world obviously entered the Taoist temple and had not come out yet.

Taoist temples often accommodate some wanderers in the world. However, if they were to be replaced by other places, Yi Xingchen ignored it. But he was the target he was watching, so he was of course alert. So he asked the shops behind to help take care of the stalls, and then went in and took a walk. As a result, he found that the few tourists in the world were missing, and they didn't know whether they left while they were away or hid in the house and didn't come out. Yi Xingchen felt that the latter was more likely.

Then, he saw a Taoist priest coming out to post an announcement. On the wall next to the door of the Taoist temple, a pilgrimage surrounded him and talked in a low voice. Because he couldn't see clearly what was written, Yi Xingchen walked to the notice and looked up carefully. However, it was a recruitment notice. The Taoist temple wanted to hire a secretary, requiring neat handwriting to be written fluently, and the salary was thirty words a day. He was responsible for two meals a day.

The price of 30 ci is much better than telling fortunes with my master on the street before. In the past, I used to calculate fortunes for one day with my master. I could earn five or ten ci. Sometimes I couldn’t even open the fortunes and didn’t make a pen. I could earn 30 ci. It seems that I still make money by playing pen than talking.

The next morning, he set up a divination stall and prepared to continue to squat.

Because he found that more and more tourists from the Taoist temple were coming to the Taoist temple, he began to believe that something might happen here.

He was squatting across the Taoist temple, staring at the Taoist temple opposite, and suddenly heard the voice of a weak woman from behind him: "Half-Immortal Young Master!"

Yi Xingchen turned around and saw a girl standing next to him who was about the same age as him, had a slutty face and a thin figure. She was the girl who had previously paid her a penny to tell her fortune.

Behind him was a thin middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life. He had a look of sorrow in his eyes. He held his fists and bowed to Yi Xingchen and said, "Banxian, I am Yan Hongzhi, this is the little girl Yan Guling. The day before yesterday, the girl went home and said that Banxian had made a fortune, so I could find another way to achieve my goal and become a scholar. It was just that the little girl did not understand the principles of the hexagram, so I couldn't explain it clearly. I have thought of some tricks according to what Banxian said in the past few days, but there was no progress. I heard that Banxian's fortune telling was very accurate, and he could actually figure out that there were graves and wells around the humble house. It was really amazing, so I would like to ask Banxian for advice, thank you." After that, he bowed.

The girl next to her also followed her father's blessing, but her eyes were eagerly looking at Yi Xingchen.

Yi Xingchen didn't expect that this girl had invited her father. She had just seen her pitiful before, and she had a fortune telling for her on a whim. In fact, she was just talking casually. But now that people are asking for it, it seems that they have to take it seriously, help people to the end, and send Buddha to the West.
