Siheyuan Fortune Telling: Starting from a Buyer to Become an All-rounder

From Daoxiang Village to returning to the capital, Xu Dongsheng stayed in the countryside for four days. During these four days, Xu Dongsheng told himself a fortune every day. When leaving the capital, he told himself the Mountain and Earth Peeling hexagram, which meant that he would have good luck in his trip.

During the next few days in the countryside, Xu Dongsheng got the Di Feng Sheng, Shui Feng Jing and this morning hexagram, Shui Di Bi.

The divinations for the first three days were all auspicious, allowing Xu Dongsheng to make a fortune. In these three divinations, in addition to some miscellaneous junk, Xu Dongsheng also gained two skills, one was leatherworking proficiency, and the other was pickling proficiency.

These two skills came at a very timely moment, which is why Xu Dongsheng dealt with all the rabbits in one go and only left more than 30 breeding rabbits.

With these two skills, Xu Dongsheng can preserve the rabbit skins intact to avoid them being wasted. Moreover, his mastery of leathermaking not only allows Xu Dongsheng to preserve the fur, but also to make other things from the fur, such as making paper, silk thread, etc.

Xu Dongsheng's mastery of pickling also allows him to make rabbit meat into a secret jerky, which can then improve the quality of his rabbit jerky and chicken jerky. It is also convenient for him to eat it himself.

The hexagrams in the past few days were all good and auspicious, except today, when Xu Dongsheng shook out a Water-Earth Bi hexagram. After Xu Dongsheng explained the hexagram, everyone understood. He had been away for three or four days, and Old Xu at home was worried. He had been planning to go back today, so this was no problem.

But this divination also said that his return journey today might not be smooth. However, compared with water on the ground, the water on the ground would eventually be restrained. In addition, Xu Dongsheng himself was strong, so he had nothing to be afraid of. Xu Dongsheng put most of the things into the hemispherical space, and then rode back with 20 kilograms of eggs and 50 kilograms of food.

"Brother in front, don't go any further. We are all poor people. Don't make it difficult for us, and we won't make it difficult for you. Leave the things on your bike and your money on the ground. Then ride your bike and find another way to leave.

Take the fork in the road next to it, and there is a village no more than 20 miles ahead. You won’t starve to death when you get to that village.”

Xu Dongsheng rode his bicycle with his stuff and arrived at a crossroads. There were bushes all around. In front of him was a steep slope, and the road was blocked by a big log. After seeing this, Xu Dongsheng knew that the hexagram had come true. Xu Dongsheng stopped the bike. At this time, a voice came from the other side of the road. Xu Dongsheng listened to it and heard that the voice was full of energy, so he should not be a poor person.

They must be people who rob people all year round, and they must have been fed, otherwise, they would not have been able to shout out such powerful words. And among these people, there were obviously people from the villages that Xu Dongsheng had passed by before, and even if there were not, there must have been people who reported the news.

Otherwise, how could they block him here? It could also be a coincidence. But no matter what, the meaning is the same: Xu Dongsheng encountered robbery.

"boom!"

"Brother in front, what are you thinking about? The village is at least ten miles away from here. Even if you want to call for help, there is no way. Just put the things in the middle of the road and we will pretend that we have never encountered them.

Otherwise, if we come out and you see our faces, we will have no choice but to let you live in this Feng Shui treasure land forever."

Xu Dongsheng just hesitated for a moment, and at this time a small tree next to Xu Dongsheng was smashed by iron sand. Xu Dongsheng immediately understood that they should have guns loaded with iron sand in their hands. It seemed that as long as Xu Dongsheng dared to say no, he would have to die.

"Okay, I'll keep the things and all the money I have. I'm a buyer for the steel mill, and I know my route. It doesn't matter if I give you the money. I'll find a way, but if you hurt me, you can't get away.

I believe you are aware of the difference between murder and robbery. I am also a poor man, and I hope you can show some mercy."

Xu Dongsheng didn't know the situation, so he could only give in. Then, while shouting, he opened all his pockets, took out some small change from them, put it on the ground, and then took off the things on the bicycle and put them on the ground.

Seeing that there was no movement over there, Xu Dongsheng rode his bicycle in the opposite direction of the road they had just pointed out. The reason why he went there was because it was more open and he could see this side. There was no place to hide.

In just a few minutes, he left with only his back figure. Then Xu Dongsheng immediately threw his bicycle to the ground and ran into the jungle nearby.

Soon, four people came out from the direction where Xu Dongsheng had just heard the sound and from the opposite direction where he left. Four of them were holding shotguns, and they looked like they would leave no one alive if they started fighting. The reason they chose to let Xu Dongsheng go that way was to watch him leave and avoid a confrontation with him and killing him.

"Damn, this bastard deserves our attention as we followed him for a whole day and night."

"Yes, Liu San, this time you have done a great deed, and I will give you two more kilograms later."

"hey-hey."

Those people came to the things left by Xu Dongsheng, opened the things Xu Dongsheng left on the ground, looked at the things inside and the money on the ground, and first cursed Xu Dongsheng, and then the corners of their mouths curled up and couldn't be suppressed. If Xu Dongsheng heard the voice, he would definitely know that this was the person from the third village he went to.

However, Xu Dongsheng didn't care who they were, because in Xu Dongsheng's eyes, they were all dead. In those days, so many things were robbed, 20 kilograms of eggs, more than 100 kilograms of food. Although the money was not much, only about 30 yuan, if it were someone else, it would be a life-threatening mistake. That was the salary for someone who didn't eat or drink for a month.

Owing so much money all at once, isn't that forcing people to die? It can crush people, and these people all used guns. Although they didn't do anything to Xu Dongsheng, it was obvious that these people were not the first time to do it. Even if Xu Dongsheng didn't have a pistol and a hundred-step arrow, he would definitely report them to the police to arrest them.

However, now Xu Dongsheng was holding a sharp weapon and was filled with murderous intent, so Xu Dongsheng looked at the surrounding environment and immediately had an idea.

"Bang bang bang!!"

"Bang bang bang!!"

"Bang! Crack!"

"boom!!"

When several people were preparing to carry their things and leave, Xu Dongsheng did not expect that the pistol would jam once on its first use. However, it did not affect Xu Dongsheng's accuracy. Eight gunshots were heard and eight people fell to the ground, but none of them left in pain.

Except for the last one who was frightened before death, the others were fine and passed away peacefully.

"Fortunately, I paid attention at the time, otherwise the food would be stained with blood."

When Xu Dongsheng saw that everyone had fallen, he rode his bicycle back and came to the side of the eight people. He looked at the food and eggs on the ground, and fortunately they were all clean.

Xu Dongsheng looked at the eight people on the ground. Each of them was dressed neatly with only a few patches on them. They were much better than those old farmers in the village.

"This person? Is he from Xiahe Village?"

Suddenly, Xu Dongsheng looked at the eight people and found that one of them seemed to be from Xiahe Village, the third village Xu Dongsheng visited. The reason why he remembered this person was because he was very enthusiastic at that time. After the village party secretary notified the villagers that they could purchase things for him, it was he who took Xu Dongsheng to purchase. Although Xu Dongsheng did not need it, he could not refuse the kindness. He did not expect that this person was so cunning.

But all that is in the past. Xu Dongsheng tied the things back to the bicycle, then took out a shovel and a hoe from the hemispherical space and started digging a hole directly under the hillside not far from the intersection. Originally, Xu Dongsheng was going to dig the hole on the spot, but because he was worried about someone passing by, he chose a Feng Shui treasure land. With Xu Dongsheng's current physical condition, it only took him half an hour to dig a hole that was two meters deep, two meters long and one meter wide.

After the pit was dug, Xu Dongsheng burned all the money he had found on them and sprinkled it on them. Although the money totaled two hundred yuan, Xu Dongsheng did not want to make money from the dead. Moreover, Xu Dongsheng felt that it would bring bad luck if he kept it on his body, so he gave it to them as a bribe.

Then Xu Dongsheng filled the soil back in and planted two saplings on top, hoping that future generations would enjoy the shade.

After packing up, Xu Dongsheng felt that no one should be able to detect his traces, so he set off again.
