Chapter 325 Not afraid
Bai Shu turned around suddenly and felt aroused in his heart when he saw Xunmei's eye-catching appearance. At the same time, Bai Shu had a deeper question in his heart. It was originally a 500 taels of silver at a loss, so how did Xunmei get enough?
Just as Bai Shu was thinking, Xunmei had already come up, took out the silver notes from her arms and handed them to Lu Jingxiu, and said politely: "Old sir, please look at it, is it enough for 500 taels of silver?"
Lu Jingxiu took the silver notes and nodded with satisfaction for a while and said, "Yes, it's exactly what I want."
"Then can you go and save your aunt?" Xunmei was a little anxious.
Lu Jingxiu stood up calmly, cleaned up the hexagram stall, and shook his clothes and said, "Little girl leads the way, let's go over and take a look."
Xunmei then breathed a sigh of relief and led Lu Jingxiu to Shanzi's house. Other onlookers were also curious about how Lu Jingxiu would cure the patient with tuberculosis. They all followed and prepared to find out. So in the end, the group was so powerful that it was so powerful.
Walking on the road, Bai Shudekong grabbed Xunmei and asked in a low voice: "How did you raise enough silver? Even if you sell your maroon pony, you can't sell so much silver."
Xunmei smiled at Bai Shu, revealing a small silver teeth and said, "Of course I have my own way. As long as I have enough money, I'll be able to save my aunt."
Xunmei's smile made Bai Shu feel inexplicably painful. You should know that it is Xunmei's sad situation, but she can ignore her own affairs, but instead worry about other people's life and death, happiness and pain. This is very similar to Bai Shu, because Bai Shu himself has many things to solve, but now that he is in Wuqu, he unconsciously thinks about the poor people here first.
The two of them didn't gossip all the way and rushed to Shanzi's residence soon. Before they could get close to them, they shouted, "Brother Shanzi, we have invited the old man here, and my aunt is saved."
After shouting like this twice, Shanzi refused and everyone walked closer to the house.
Bai Shu was about to push the door open, but suddenly the door of the house opened from inside. Shanzi walked out with red eyes. Bai Shu had seen that look, so he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Shanzi said only one sentence: "I'm sorry, you have to worry, my mother...my mother has left." Shanzi suppressed his emotions, but after this sentence, he couldn't help crying.
The dozens of people in front of the door looked at Shanzi's tears, and their hearts were filled with sorrow. Life and death were the most tormenting things since ancient times, and it was no exception when it was time.
At this moment, Bai Shu felt deeply his powerlessness and even felt a sense of self-blame. Because if Bai Shu had knelt down and kowtowed Lu Jingxiu from the beginning and did not try to treat Shanzi's mother by herself, Shanzi's mother might have been cured long ago.
But Bai Shu was unwilling to bow his head like Lu Jingxiu. In the end, Bai Shu was helpless. When Shanzi's mother was terminally ill, Bai Shu finally wanted to surrender, but it was too late at this time. Even if Bai Shu kept his dignity in front of Lu Jingxiu, he solved the problem by searching for eyebrows, but Shanzi's mother died in the end.
Bai Shuru was hit hard, and felt a little dazed in consciousness. Xunmei still didn't give up. He grabbed Lu Jingxiu's arm and begged: "Old sir, think of another way, please."
Lu Jingxiu sighed and said, "Child, do you know that people cannot be resurrected by death. Some things are already fixed. Even if you have the ability to be astonishing, you cannot really change your fate against the will of heaven!"
Xunmei burst into tears by this sentence, but Bai Shu understood the meaning of Lu Jingxiu's words. Lu Jingxiu returned the five hundred taels of silver in full, and Shanzi's mother was also hurriedly cremated and burned to ashes.
Afterwards, Bai Shu heard that Xunmei brought the money to her, she went to Mu Mansion. After that, Qingwazi didn't know how she got into Shanzi, who was in a very bad mood, and was beaten with a bruised and swollen face.
There was no words for three days, and there was another three days of haze.
There has been too long since the sunlight fell in Wuqu, but it was cold and autumn rain continued. Many old people sighed that they were afraid that the season would change, and there would be abnormal movements in the water on land. Even if it would cause disasters, it would be nothing strange.
The entire Wuqu is like an old tree root soaked in moisture. It is already old. In his late years, people still suffer from the torture of this dampness and coldness. They will decay in the dark little by little, and they will never see any light again.
It was cloudy again this day, and Lu Jingxiu was still out of the hexagrams, and Bai Shu watched from the side, feeling speechless.
A middle-aged man lowered his eyebrows and pleased Lu Jingxiu and said, "I have been waiting here for three days, but it's my turn to calculate this hexagram." This middle-aged man is the third hexagram today and the last hexagram.
Lu Jingxiu nodded and was about to ask questions, but Xunmei, who had been living in seclusion these days, suddenly walked up and asked Lu Jingxiu: "Can you tell me a fortune?"
The middle-aged man was robbed of the hexagram by Xunmei, and he was about to get angry when he was angry, but he suddenly remembered that Xunmei would soon marry Mu Chunhu. His aura was weak, and he didn't dare to say anything, so he walked to the side with a drooping head.
Lu Jingxiu glanced at Xunmei casually and shook her head.
Xunmei said unconvincedly: "Last time I came to tell fortunes, you said that you only looked at the three hexagrams in a day and refused me. Now you have not calculated the three hexagrams yet, why don't you calculate it for me? Could it be that you have changed the rules again?"
Bai Shu was also very curious about what Xunmei was thinking. Why didn’t Lu Jingxiu ask Xunmei for divination, and also echoed: “Yes, why didn’t you ask Xunmei for divination?”
Lu Jingxiu's tone was calm, but what he said made everyone gasp.
Lu Jingxiu said: "I never read the hexagrams to the dead, and the little girl has no time to go."
Xunmei was stunned and froze without saying a word. However, Bai Shu was furious and scolded loudly: "You fart!"
Lu Jingxiu was not angry either and said tepidly: "If you don't believe me, tell the little girl a fortune."
After Lu Jingxiu said this, everyone realized that Bai Shu could tell fortunes. Everyone's eyes were all focused on Bai Shu's body, and even Xunmei looked at Bai Shu with a little fear and fragility in his eyes.
Bai Shu explained: "I don't have the ability to tell fortunes, but I can still tell you the good or bad luck."
After Bai Shu said that, he took the copper coin and handed it to Xunmei and said, "Let's throw a Liuyao hexagram, be more accurate."
The final result of the Liuyao hexagram is not certain, but there is room for room for it, so Bai Shu wanted to ask Xunmei to ask Liuyao hexagram.
But Xunmei shook her head and shook a hexagram from the signboard.
The hexagram words in the hexagram signature may not leave room for anything, and sometimes even a judgment on life and death can be determined.
Bai Shu saw the sign flashing and flying out, and suddenly pressed the sign back with his hand, and held the sign tightly on the table and said, "This is all a trick of being fooled, it's better if we don't play it."
Bai Shu's move disappointed everyone, but Lu Jingxiu said before that Shanzi's mother was in trouble, but now she said that Xunmei had no time to go, and her tone was even more certain. Everyone was confused, and even the look of looking at Xunmei changed a little.
Bai Shu quickly called the middle-aged man who had just been snatched by Xunmei, and counted Lu Jingxiu's last hexagram today. Finally, he fooled Xunmei's matter and turned everyone away.
Looking for the eyebrows and tactfully, he did not chase Bai Shu and Lu Jingxiu to ask about the truth, but left alone and walked towards Qiu Xinyuan.
In the afternoon, Xunmei led his maroon pony to the sand field again, found Bai Shu, and said he wanted to go outside and relax, and asked Bai Shu if he would go.
Bai Shu thought of what Lu Jingxiu said to Xunmei before that time, and was afraid that Xunmei would not be able to think about it, so he came down and walked out with Xunmei, preparing to find an opportunity to enlighten Xunmei.
Bai Shu let Xunmei lead him and walked all the way to a valley deep in Wuqu.
There is a large area of flat grass in the valley. The grass has been moistened by the rain for a long time. It seems that water is about to drip out. The soil is soft and it seems to be walking on cotton when you step on it.
Xunmei let go of his pony and let the horse run around, eat grass and draw water. He took Bai Shu to a lake that was as clear as a mirror.
The breeze by the lake is intoxicating, the grass and flowers are fragrant, Bai Shu finally felt a trace of hard-earned warmth and comfort in the wet and coldness of the days.
"This place is really good. If the weather clears up again and you will see some sunlight, it will be even better." Bai Shu exclaimed in admiration.
Xunmei stood in front of Bai Shu, facing the lake, but when she heard Bai Shu's words, she turned her head and looked at Bai Shu. Her face on her side was shocking.
Xunmei said: "In previous years, autumn was sunny, but this year it was really strange. When it rained, it was not even open for the moon."
Bai Shu comforted her eyebrows and said, "It's just that for the time being. There will always be a day when the rain passes and the sky clears."
Xunmei laughed at herself and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for that day."
After Xunmei said that, she lowered her head, didn't dare to look at Bai Shu's eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Little Taoist, is your grandfather's words true? Am I going to die?"
Bai Shu didn't hesitate at all: "He is talking nonsense, don't believe him."
Xunmei was silent for a moment, then pulled her forehead, which was blown away by the wind, and said, "Since it's nonsense, why do you press the one I shook out of the sign in the sign?"
Bai Shu had known Xunmei to be smart, but he didn't expect that he was so smart. He didn't know how to answer at the moment, so he just said: "I'm asking for advice to be at ease, but it's an illusory thing in the end and can't believe it."
Xunmei did not answer this, but instead talked to Bai Shu about his pony: "Look at how comfortable that horse is. There is such a grassland that can rush around. My favorite thing on weekdays is to ride it here to play."
"You are the only one?" Bai Shu seemed to see Xunmei riding on the lakeside, wearing a gorgeous sunset and smiling.
Xunmei sighed, "How could it be myself? There are horses with me, mountains and rivers with me, the breeze and bright moon, the morning dew and sunset are all with me, and then I will dance to them."
When Xunmei said this, Bai Shu remembered that she liked dancing very much and went to Qiuxinyuan to learn dance. But she didn't know how good the Xunmei danced.
Xunmei smiled and said in a daze: "I think about it carefully that life and death are just like this. Sometimes, it will be easy after death. Do you think I will become a horse or a bird without any restrictions after death?"
Bai Shu murmured, "You won't die."
Xunmei said resolutely: "I'm not afraid of death!"
