Chapter 67 Excuses

Mei Lengxiang bowed and said, "Thank you for your help. Fortunately, you will be helping me, otherwise we will be in a little trouble."

"Who else besides you?" Huang asked curiously.

"It's Yi Xingchen, the apprentice of Mr. Gongsun, who tells me through fortune telling, the person I'm looking for is in this direction. After I went, I found the thieves like the White Lotus Sect. So, I controlled the two incense masters and were about to ask their hall masters whereabouts, but the officers and soldiers suddenly came and didn't know what was going on. I originally wanted to catch these two incense masters to break through, but the officers and soldiers were very powerful, especially the archers. I couldn't escape their arrow rain. So I returned, but I didn't expect Yi Xingchen. He said that he found that this hexagram was still dangerous, so he chased me here and wanted to tell me, but he didn't expect that he was also involved in it. Thanks to him, he found a place to hide, so we avoided the Jinyiwei. He was really good at fortune telling. In the future, as long as he was willing to help, it would be much more convenient to find these thieves, and I must kill all of them to avenge my father!"

Huang Langzhong said: "Are you sure that Yi Xingchen made the fortune-telling this time?"

"Can be sure! Because he didn't know who I was looking for, I didn't tell him or even had any prompts. I just told him that I was looking for someone and asked her to help me figure out which direction I could find. He figured out and told me that I could find it after I went. What's the point of telling fortunes?"

Dr. Huang nodded frequently and said, "I can't tell that this young man is so capable. His master's fortune-telling skills are ordinary, but he teaches such an apprentice."

Mei Lengxiang said: "That's nothing strange. I heard that fortune-telling is very talented. Different people understand different hexagrams in the same hexagram, and some are even completely opposite. I heard that only those who are truly spiritual can understand the secrets of the hexagrams. Perhaps, they have this ability."

"Yes, it is of course a good thing for us to have this ability. I hope that he can rely on him and finally find the White Lotus Sect leader who killed your father and use his head to pay tribute to your father's spirit in heaven."

"I think so too. However, I am afraid that the important person like the White Lotus Sect Master can't tell fortunes. Today I have a good chance to follow the clues to find the master of the Tunzhou Hall. I originally caught two incense masters, just to ask the master for the news, but unexpectedly, the officers and soldiers came, and I couldn't take the two incense masters away, so I had to leave them. As a result, they fell into the hands of the official army. Later, the Jinyiwei tortured one of the incense masters, and I heard in secret that the master was tortured and said a lot of things, but could not tell the exact whereabouts of the master. It can be seen that the master himself did not know where the master went. In addition, the master was the host of Xuantian Temple. Judging from the reaction of the Jinyiwei today, it should not be able to ask the master's whereabouts."

"What are you going to do now?"

"I'm going to go to Yi Xingchen later and ask him to help calculate the position of the master and even the leader. If he can calculate it, it would be great. I originally wanted him to calculate it just now, but he didn't sleep all night last night. He must be very sleepy and cared about his master, so I want him to go back and rest for a while, and after seeing the master, he feels at ease, then go to him. In this way, he has no worries and should be more accurate in calculations. I hope he can help me in this matter."

"I hope it's not too big. It's impossible to have a hexagram like a fortune teller."

After Yi Xingchen and Mei Lengxiang broke up, he did not go directly to find Li Xuehao, but went home first. He had to wait until it was dark before going to see Li Xuehao, otherwise the goal would be too obvious if he went during the day, and it would be dangerous if someone saw it. Besides, the master would definitely be anxious to death if he didn't go home all night.

Yi Xingchen quickly returned to the yard and saw his master Gongsun He standing at the gate of the yard. When he saw him coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief, stomped his feet and scolded him again, asking why he didn't come back all night.

This lie cannot be made up casually, otherwise the master would be very sad because he regarded himself as his own son, so Yi Xingchen decided to tell half the truth and show the Jinyiwei, so that he would not dare to say anything else. So Yi Xingchen said: "That's right. Last night, the little Lord Qi Peng from the Jinyiwei came to me and invited me to dinner."

When Gongsun He heard this, his eyes immediately widened: "What did you say? Lord Xiaoqi, was the one who I met in the morgue last time?"

"Yes, he invited me to a meal, and then said that he had a friend who had something important to do to make a fortune..."

When Gongsun He heard that the Jinyiwei was involved, he did not dare to talk about such a big thing in the alley. He quickly waved his hand and signaled him not to say anything, pulled him into the yard, closed the door, went straight back to the house, and closed the door. This was to say: "Okay, continue to say, what's wrong next?"

"After he invited me to dinner, he said that last time, Master, you told me, you told me, who killed the murderer of Apricot Flower Girl. He was very grateful, so he invited me to dinner. By the way, there was another thing, saying that he had a friend who wanted to find a fortune teller to calculate some things. He thought Master, we were okay to tell fortune, so he wanted to ask me to tell fortune. But his friend lived outside the city, a countryside with more than ten miles. I dared not refuse that when their Jinyiwei said that, although I said that I couldn't tell fortunes and asked him to find Master, he didn't do anything, and he just wanted to let me go. At that time, I said I had to come back and talk to Master, but he said no, and he just asked me to say it. So I went with him. I was busy until now. - What? Didn't that Lord Xiaoqi send someone to tell Master you?"

Gongsun He said in surprise: "No? I waited until dawn last night and no one came to knock on the door. - Have you really gone to tell fortunes for the friends of Jinyiwei?"

Yi Xingchen nodded, took out the two taels of silver given by Peng Qingchen and the dozens of cents from his body from his arms, and handed them all to the master: "This is money for fortune-telling. Actually, I don't know if it is accurate. I just said it according to the hexagram, but they were very happy and were generous. Because they said it was unsafe to go back when it was dark, they lived there and sent me back this morning. I thought they had told you? I had known that I would come back and talk to my master so that my master would not worry about it all night in vain."

When Gongsun He saw the white silver, he was suddenly overjoyed. He knew that although his disciple was a bit dull, he was very kind and would never do anything stealing. The disciple had no other skills except to teach him fortune-telling. Therefore, the money should be obtained by fortune-telling. There is no doubt about it. He smiled and took the money and said, "This family is so generous. After calculating a few fortunes, he actually gave so much money. However, judging from their rewards, it proves that the fortune-telling you should be in line with their wishes, so he was so happy. Oh, if our master and apprentice can meet such a customer once a month in the future, then we will have a better life and we can tell you a wife in the future. The master can also give you a safe fortune, live a life and hold your grandson. By the way, have you eaten?"

Yi Xingchen really didn't eat, and he didn't sleep all night. Although he hugged a beautiful woman and was beautiful, he couldn't fill his stomach. Although he was beautiful, his stomach still kept roaring and his eyelids were fighting, saying, "I didn't eat. I didn't sleep well last night. Now I'm sleeping. I'll eat something and sleep for a while. Master, let's go and tell fortunes!"

Yi Xingchen smiled and said, "Okay, it's okay. The money you made last night is equivalent to what we earned for several months. Even if you sleep for a day today, there will be no problem not setting up a stall. You should go to bed."
