After hearing the news, his feelings for Xiaoqin were completely turned cold.
The shadow that once lingered in his mind gradually faded away.
He and Xiaoqin hadn't really started together, they had just had a lingering relationship of joy and sorrow in their dreams. Now that they had found a satisfactory destination, he could only stay away from them and wish them well from afar.
He hoped that Xiaoqin would live well, but when he thought of that shadow, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Putting aside this thought, he began to concentrate on his studies, and his performance became better and better. When Zhang Kuanren was proud, he often praised him in public and declared that he was a role model for other students. This made all the students feel envious and jealous, and they all commented:
"Hey, brother, what happened to this little man? He suddenly became thin and tender, and his mind suddenly became sharper. Could it be that he took some magic pill?"
"Hey, what you said makes no sense! Is there any panacea in our barren mountains and mountains? If there is, we should get it first. How can we just take advantage of him?"
"Brother, don't believe me when I say this! If you think about it seriously, how exhausted he was before your husband punished him to dig in the soil, and what he looked like after he came back from digging in the soil. After such a comparison, the answer is no. Are you ready to come out?"
"Brother, according to what you said, it's really possible that he took some kind of miraculous medicine. If this kid really has such a good fortune, he will definitely prosper in the future. We must fawn over him and let him take care of him."
"Bah! If he really made up some mystery, I'm going to expose him so that he can be embarrassed! The mystery he created will definitely not last forever. Let's just follow him and see. From now on, I have to keep an eye on him from time to time to see what kind of tricks he is doing!"
Xiao Mizi didn't know and didn't pay attention to these discussions behind the scenes. He went to and from school step by step. When he had nothing to do, he went for a walk on the mountain to have fun and relax.
That day, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a robe on his back walking from a distance. As he got closer, he took a closer look and saw that the man had a big white face and black shiny hair. He obviously didn't do hard farm work.
When the man saw that Xiao Mizi kept looking at him, he grinned and asked with a foreign accent: "Little brother, how to get to Zhangjiacun?"
When Xiao Dizi heard this, he thought the man was going to Xiao Qin's house. People in Gain's village rarely interact with outsiders. Except for Xiaogazi and his mother, Lianxin, who often go to other places, Xiaoqin's family recently asked a matchmaker to go to other places to talk about marriage and have some contact with outsiders.
"Uncle, are you going to Xiaoqin's house?"
Xiao Lizi then asked.
The man smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about whose house I'm going to. Just tell me where Zhangjiacun is."
"I am from Zhangjiacun, I will take you there!"
Xiao Dizi volunteered, and while chatting with the stranger, he took him into the village and came to the door of Xiao Qin's house.
"Well, this is Xiaoqin's house. Go in by yourself."
Xiao Mizi stubbornly thought that the man was here to see Xiaoqin's parents, so after bringing him here, he left.
After returning home, after lunch, he sat at the kang table and did his homework. During this period, Zhang Kuanren assigned him a lot of homework, and he had to take advantage of his rest day to get it out as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, while he was busy writing, he heard a sudden noise outside his house. When he went out, he saw a large group of people standing in front of the house. In addition to the men and women in the village, there was also the foreign man with oily hair and pink face.
When he came out, Mrs. Xiao was frowning and looking at those people suspiciously. When she saw him coming out, Mrs. Xiao turned around and asked, "Sir, what trouble did you cause outside to cause such a large group of people?" Call the door?"
Xiao Mizi ignored Mrs. Xiao and said to the foreign man: "Hey, aren't you going to Xiao Qin's house? What are you doing here?"
The stranger laughed and said, "Little brother, I came here to find you, but you took me to someone else's house. How interesting!"
"Looking for me?" When Xiao Dizi heard this, he was very puzzled for a moment, pointing to his nose, as if asking for confirmation, "We are strangers, why are you looking for me?"
Before the outsider could respond, the villagers rushed to say, "Sir, I came to see you for no other reason than to compete with you in fortune-telling to see who is better at fortune-telling and who is better at fortune-telling!"
Another villager continued: "Yes, Mizi, they said they were looking for Zhang Xuan. We didn't know your name was Zhang Xuan at first. We asked several people before we knew it was you. It was obviously Xiao Mizi, but suddenly it was changed to Zhang Xuan. , making us very uncomfortable!"
When Xiao Lizi heard this, he became more and more confused. Only Zhang Xiaoyu and a few others knew about his calculation skills. How did this outsider know about it? Could it be that this stranger was a friend of Zhang Xiaoyu, and Zhang Xiaoyu accidentally revealed to others that he helped find the big yellow dog?
But I heard the foreigner say: "Little brother, my name is Bu Xiang, and I am a hexagram master in Liancheng. I suddenly heard that there was a hexagram master named Zhang Xuan here. I was very curious for a while, so I temporarily gave up in the city. Xing Gua, I came to you specially. Since you are a Gua Immortal, can you compare your skills with me, an ordinary Gua master?"
What, Gua Xian?
When Xiao Dizi heard this, his heart trembled, and he thought: It turns out that my reputation has spread to the city, and it is not just an ordinary reputation, but a Gua Xian! A title like Gua Xian is not worthy of ordinary people, but I got it out of thin air. What on earth is going on?
After being stunned for a while, he suddenly realized that this must be the work of those guys Zhang Xiaoyu and Zhang Xiaohai! Those guys once said that they wanted to publicize his ability to pinch and calculate. He didn't care at the time, but who would have expected that they actually did it.
This fortune teller named Bu Xiang left his business and came here to compete with him, it must be because he was not convinced. Bu Xiang should be a famous divination master for a long time, but even an old divination master like him doesn't claim to be a divination celestial being. However, he was touted as a divination celestial being by Zhang Xiaoyu and others at a young age. No wonder he is angry!
Thinking of this, he subconsciously wanted to deny that he was some kind of Gua Xian, but when he saw Bu Xiang's aggressive expression and the mocking demeanor of the villagers, he immediately changed his mind.
He couldn't compete with the steamed buns for his breath, and he couldn't lose his breath.
So, after calming down his mind, Xiao Dizi said: "divination master, you traveled such a long way to compete with me, aren't you afraid that you will lose and lose the face to go back?"
Bu Xiang shook his head with a smile, then turned to look at the villagers, and said: "Zhang Xuan, even though you are young, you should know that sentence, the way is that those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come. I debuted For decades, I have never encountered a real opponent on the hexagram path. If you can beat me, it will be my luck, so that I can taste the taste of failure that I have never experienced before. Of course, you won, That is also your luck, because you can have a good time in the village. However, I firmly believe that I do not have this luck, and you do not have this luck. This win-win result is impossible to produce in any case. "
"What you are going around like this is just saying that you can beat me, but I can't beat you." Xiao Jizi frowned and said, "The problem is, I don't think so. In my opinion, you will definitely lose. .”
The villagers who were watching the excitement couldn't help but frown when they saw Xiao Mizi saying such harsh words. One of them said: "Sir, competing with the hexagram masters from the city is not child's play. You'd better give in to them, say a few nice words, and send them back happily! You have always been a bitter person." Children, who can't even read books, how can they deserve the title of Gua Immortal and have the ability to compete with the Gua Masters from the city? It's not shameful to give in. If you insist on competing with others, you will lose. It’s embarrassing!”
