It’s strange to say!

Although the old Taoist pretended to be mysterious, he still sat there cross-legged all the time. This situation was a bit weird and not like the behavior of ordinary charlatans.

If you are an ordinary charlatan, he usually puts on a sophisticated posture, and after attracting others' attention, his purpose will soon be revealed.

However, this old man was different. He just sat there cross-legged.

You must know that it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and there is thick snow everywhere on the ground. The weather is very cold, and it is even colder in the snow. Even a strong young man, let alone an old Taoist priest, cannot last long sitting on the ground.

Gu Tianya thought for a moment and vaguely guessed a possibility. He believed that the reason why this veteran was like this was just to show a higher demeanor. Sitting in the snow in the cold weather could indeed give people a sense of inscrutability.

.

However, it is too cold to sit like this.

If you sit for a long time, you may get cold and get sick easily.

After all, Gu Tianya was kind-hearted and didn't want to see people like this. He sighed helplessly, lowered his voice and said to everyone: "If you brothers are so determined, you might as well go and calculate a hexagram..."

This is to help the old Taoist priests attract business.

The old Taoist priest squatted by the roadside in the cold weather, pretending to be an expert sleeping in the snow. As soon as someone came by, he immediately sat cross-legged. This was obviously because he couldn't bear the cold, so he took the opportunity to lie down.

Sit down instead... Why do you suffer this in such cold weather?

It is nothing more than the pressure of life and wanting to earn a bite to eat and drink.

Even though he knew that the other party was a charlatan, Gu Tianya still couldn't feel any resentment. The reason was actually very simple. This veteran was really old. If it could make the other party earn a bite of food and drink, Gu Tianya wouldn't mind giving some kindness.

He went out in person to help solicit business, and the twenty tough soldiers naturally wanted to give him a face, so Yan Jiu was the first to step forward and said with a smile: "You old Taoist priest, you don't have to sit down, give us one

Hexagram, how many copper coins are needed?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and tried to pull the old Taoist priest up from the ground. Unexpectedly, the old Taoist priest shook his head repeatedly and said seriously: "No, no, I am feeling the coldness of the world. This general must not destroy my achievements."

Uh-huh?

Everyone was startled.

Yan Jiu frowned and said with some displeasure: "Old Taoist priest, don't be shameless. In fact, everyone knows that you are a low-ranking person in the world. If it were normal, who would look at you? We, Brother Gu, are afraid that you will freeze.

I wanted you to take over some business and leave early, but you didn’t know what to do and wanted to sit on the ground and pretend to be superior?”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand again to pull the old Taoist priest up.

Unexpectedly, the old Taoist priest shook his head again and again, waved his hands hurriedly and said: "No, no, absolutely no, this poor Taoist is feeling the severe cold of the world, this general must not destroy my achievements..."

Yan Jiu's face turned cold and he opened his mouth to yell and curse.

Gu Tianya suddenly spoke and said with a slight smile: "Brother Yanjiu, just pull him up. Don't pay attention to what he says. This old Taoist priest must have numb legs."

He smiled again, looked at the old Taoist priest very interestingly, and said again: "He pretended to be an expert for a long time, but in the end his legs were numb and he couldn't stand up. He was afraid that after being pulled up by you, his legs would become weak and they would break.

Lose the superior demeanor that you try so hard to pretend to be..."

Yan Jiu was stunned by these words.

Everyone was amazed when they heard this.

Everyone looked at the old Taoist priest together, and sure enough they saw that the old Taoist priest's face was red with embarrassment. Although his face was red, he was still quibbling, waving his hands and saying, "No, no, my legs and feet are very nimble. I am feeling the severe cold in the world."

, don’t destroy my achievements..."

Unfortunately, this time Yan Jiu didn't listen anymore. He suddenly stretched out his hand and said to Qinghe: "Stand up."

He directly grabbed the old Taoist priest and pulled him up.

Only then did I realize that the old Taoist priest's legs were indeed trembling, and everyone burst out laughing, surrounding the old Taoist priest and making fun of him.

Cheng Chumo and others were amazed. The three little guys stretched their heads in front of Gu Tianya and said with puzzled faces: "How did you guess it? How did you guess it? Why didn't we find it, but you knew it?

Is his leg numb?"

Gu Tianya smiled slightly and said: "This is just common sense in life. You can guess it if you pay a little attention. It is the cold weather in the twelfth lunar month of winter. A young man in his prime cannot stand sitting in the snow. He is an old Taoist priest.

The Qi and blood of the muscles and bones have long been weakened. If he sits cross-legged and meditates like this for half a day, there is at least a 50% chance that his legs will become numb."

"It's only a 50% chance, so you dare to be sure?" The three little guys' eyes widened.

Gu Tianya glanced at the three of them, and for some reason suddenly started teaching earnestly, saying with hints: "There are thousands of things in the world, and there are always traces to be found. As long as you think hard, you can trace back the origin. I really only had a 50% guess at the beginning.

, but I saw him constantly rejecting Yan Jiu's kindness, so I secretly wondered why he would reject other people's kindness? Is it really because he felt the severe cold in the world? I'm afraid it's just because it's inconvenient to stand up! So, it's 50% possible.

It becomes 70%..."

The three little guys looked at each other in confusion, obviously their minds were still in a daze. After a long time, Cheng Chumo stammered and said: "Even...even if it's 70% possible, it's not 100% certain."

Gu Tianya suddenly smiled, as if he was trying to instill some truth into the three little guys, and said leisurely: "If you can be 70% sure about things in this world, you can already give it a try. You are from Suwei of the Tang Dynasty."

, you are likely to go to the army for training in the future. As a leading general, you must have a heart that dares to risk everything. Once you are sure that something is 70% certain, you must immediately muster the courage to attack quickly. This is the way of a fierce general, and you must not be pretentious.

hesitate."

The three little guys nodded repeatedly, couldn't help but puff up their chests, and said loudly: "That's that, we will definitely dare to burn the boat."

As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Gu Tianya and asked very curiously: "Are you like this too?"

Gu Tianya smiled again and said slowly: "Of course I can't do this. I have to be 120% sure before I take action."

The three little guys were stunned.

After a long time passed, the three of them spoke with strange expressions on their faces, and said blankly: "You asked us to take action when we were 70% sure, but you had to be 120% sure before you would do it. This...this...how does this feel like you are treating us as fools?"

coax?"

"No way!" Gu Tianya smiled all over his face, suddenly reached out and patted the three little guys, and joked: "How can smart children like you be easily coaxed? In my opinion,

The person in this world who can deceive you may not have been born yet."

"Hey, this sounds very exciting. Hahaha, you are right, we are as smart as monkeys, how can we be easily coaxed by others."

The three idiots were so proud that they had forgotten to understand the difference between 70% and 120%.

But their servant Ding Buqu's face was red, and everyone had an embarrassed and helpless look on their face. Someone suddenly raised his hand towards Gu Tianya and said sincerely: "Please, don't do this, please give us

Young Master, please tell the truth and tell them you were just teasing."

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianya's face turned solemn, and he shook his head solemnly and said: "I am not joking, but I am sincere. Saying that you are 70% sure is actually the way to be a strong general. There are even people who are willing to fight even if there is a 50% chance.

If you really care about your young master, then let them remember my words at all times."

The servants, Ding Buqu, were obviously startled, as if they were dissatisfied with Gu Tianya's remarks.

But Gu Tianya no longer explained, there were some things he couldn't explain to these servants Ding Buqu.

At this time, I suddenly heard three boys shouting, and said in a surprised tone: "Look, look, the old Taoist priest is no longer trembling. Sure enough, her legs were numb just now, and it took her a long time to recover, hahaha

, fun fun, really fun.”

Everyone was interrupted by this and immediately looked at the old Taoist priest again.

But I saw the old Taoist priest's face flushed, and he kept arguing: "How can it be numbness in the legs? It's not numbness in the legs! Can it be called numbness in the legs when it comes to cultivators..."

Everyone was laughing and joking, and the atmosphere was full of joy.

Only Yan Jiu was still thinking about Gu Tianya's kindness and suddenly asked: "Now that you have calmed down, let's get started. Brother Gu asked us to take care of your business. We have to sell his face. Old Taoist priest, tell me.

, if I ask you to calculate a hexagram, how many copper coins should I give you."

It seems that because he heard about the copper coins, the old Taoist priest finally stopped being the toughest one, but he still pretended to be a master, put on an esoteric posture, and said crookedly: "A straight cut with an iron mouth counts a person's life.

A poor person is playing games in the world, only giving relief to those who are destined to be..."

"Stop nagging!" Yan Jiu shouted sharply, and said with a certain amount of anger: "If you dare to nag again, believe it or not, I will chop you with a knife."

The old Taoist priest quickly changed his words and said: "The so-called fate means that we are destined to meet each other. Since we are already destined, we should do divination and interpret the hexagrams. Ahem, this general, a poor Taoist, needs five essays to interpret the hexagrams for others."

When he talked about Gua Zi, his eyes seemed to be shining brightly. There was no hint of a noble demeanor, but he was clearly a charlatan.

Yan Jiuqiang held back his disgust and said directly: "Then you do the math for me."

The old Taoist priest nodded and asked, "What is it?"

Yan Jiu hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "You can calculate whatever you want. I'll give you the money after the calculation."

Unexpectedly, the old Taoist priest suddenly acted rogue and stretched out his hand directly in front of him and said with a smile: "Chenghui, five articles."

Yan Jiu was stunned for a moment and said in astonishment: "You have to give money before we start?"

As a result, the old Taoist priest slowly shook his head, smiled and said again: "It has begun, it has ended. General, please don't default on your debts. The hexagrams have the following five articles."

This rogue behavior finally made Yan Jiu angry. He was about to roar, but suddenly he stood there stunned, because the old Taoist suddenly spoke leisurely and looked at him with a deep look on his face: "The poor Taoist has just shouted

, you are a general..."

"Ah hahaha, so funny!"

The male duck voices of three little fools suddenly sounded next to them, and they said in a loud voice: "You can also call this fortune telling? You are obviously lying with your eyes open. Old Taoist priest, you have to watch carefully, this woman from the Women's Army

Although the uncle is tall and tall, the armor he wears is that of a soldier. You actually said he was a general. Why didn't you say he was a general..."
