Chapter 103: Hexagram

The park near the company is usually overcrowded in the afternoon. There are aunts dancing in the park square, mothers pushing children to play in the park, and occasionally some students holding drawing boards. All in all, the park is very lively.
It's just that the weather was too hot today, and there were no people in the park. Lu Qingjiu and Bai Yuehu went to the old tree and sat down on the flowerbed next to the old tree.
The scorching sun shined through the luxuriant branches and leaves of the old tree, casting a mottled light and shadow on the ground. Lu Qingjiu reached out and touched the trunk of the old tree, calling his friend's name.
Old Shu never responded. When Lu Qingjiu was a little anxious, Bai Yuehu stood up and said that he would go to other places first, and gave Lu Qingjiu time and space.
Lu Qingjiu looked dazed, not understanding why Yuehu did this, and Bai Yuehu explained: "It may have felt my breath and dare not speak."
Lu Qingjiu: "Huh?" He didn't think of this at all.
"It's okay, you talk." Baiyuehu said, "I'm waiting for you at the gate of the park."
Then he turned and left.
After Bai Yuehu left, about five or six minutes later, the voice of the old tree really rang behind Lu Qingjiu, but there was a trembling smell in this voice: "Jiuer, are you, are you alright?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "I'm fine."
The old tree said: "Why did you come back with the dragon, such a terrifying creature..."
Lu Qing Jiuxin said that not only did I come back with the dragon, but I also fell in love with the dragon. Of course, he did not dare to stimulate the old tree, but explained that the white moon fox is different from the normal dragon. The temper is very good, and he has never Done something that hurt him.
The old tree was noncommittal about Lu Qingjiu's remarks, but he kept saying that dragons are very dangerous creatures, and from the memory of inheritance, humans who have good relations with dragons have no good end.
Lu Qingjiu just listened with a smile, and the old tree also tasted a certain determination from his silence. After a long sigh, he did not continue the topic and talked about other things.
A year’s time, for the longevity of the old tree, is just a finger-pointing effort. It is just different from the previous years. The old tree also has a partner to accompany him. It seems that life has also become more interesting, unlike the previous ones. So boring. Lu Qingjiu was a little worried about Lao Shu and Wu Xiao, but now it seems that the two are getting along well, so he is relieved.
Speaking of Wu Xiao, the old tree seemed to open the chatterbox and said that he was a knife mouth tofu heart. Although he said it was not good, he was actually very empathetic. He spent a lot of time chatting with him and had such a partner. , I am very happy. However, the disadvantage is that after Wu Xiao can hear him, he can also hear some other non-human creatures, and even see them occasionally. This situation will add a lot of trouble to Wu Xiao.
Lu Qingjiu quietly listened to the old tree's muttering, feeling as if he had returned to the most difficult time of those years. At that time, he had just joined the company and was unfamiliar with other colleagues, but he knew him by accident. The tree, the old tree likes to talk very much. He told Lu Sake to bring an umbrella on rainy days and put on clothes in cold weather to help Lu Sake through the worst years.
At this moment, the old tree's old problem has committed again, and it took a long time to realize that I seem to talk too much, a little embarrassed: "Oh, you don't remind me, I have been talking about this for almost an hour. ."
Lu Qingjiu smiled: "It's okay, you say, I would like to listen."
The old tree whispered: "No, don't let that dragon wait in a hurry."
Lu Qingjiu said: "It's okay." He finally came back, and I believe Bai Yuehu can also understand his occasional waywardness.
The old tree said: "You really don't plan to come back?"
"Not coming back." Lu Qingjiu's tone was very positive, "but I will come to the grave every year, and we can see each other once a year."
The old tree sighed regretfully.
Lu Qingjiu glanced at his phone, and now it was almost the dinner time appointed by Zhu Miaomiao. He got up and planned to bid farewell to the old tree, saying that he had finished the meal and then came over to chat with the old tree for a while.
The old tree murmured for a while, as if he had something to say.
"Is there anything you want to tell me?" Lu Qingjiu asked, "You tell me, I'm listening."
The old tree said: "It's..."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Huh?"
The old tree said, "Do you remember the trigram that I calculated for your parents?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "Naturally remember." It's a coincidence that if the old tree hadn't forgotten his parents, he would not return to Shuifu Village, let alone know Baiyue Fox.
The old tree said: "Do you... think this hexagram is accurate?"
"Quite accurate." Lu Qingjiu said, "My parents did not die by accident."
The old tree was silent for a moment, but his voice was a little low. He said, "In fact, a few days before you came back, I also gave you a fortune."
Lu Qingjiu said: "How is it?"
The old tree said: "Not very good."
Lu Qingjiu sighed, "Very bad?"
The old tree said: "I don't quite understand..." He murmured, "The Guaxiang said, let you stay away from the water, but it happened that the vitality is in the water. Isn't this contradictory?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "What did the Guaxiang say?"
The old tree read the hexagram image: "When the inherent water is exhausted in the poor land, it will be difficult for the village of willows to retain flowers tomorrow. It is inevitable if you do not enter the water, and the landscape is difficult to recover." This hexagram image is different from ordinary hexagrams. The hexagrams are hidden in the poems calculated using the unique methods of their tribesmen. This method generally consumes a lot of their vitality, so the old tree rarely calculates the hexagrams. At present, I have only counted three times, two for Lu Qingjiu and one for Wu Xiao.
The previous hexagram was done after the calculation was completed, but after the calculation of this hexagram, the old tree felt fear, and he felt a sense of crisis that he was almost discovered by spying on Heaven. The old tree didn't understand why Lu Qingjiu had a relationship with Tiandao. He didn't understand the reason until he saw the white moon fox who came back with Lu Qingjiu.
The dragons were born in response to the Dao of Heaven. To be precise, they are a race that defends the Dao of Heaven. Lu Qingjiu, who has a relationship with the dragon, is naturally inextricably connected with the Dao of Heaven. So this is probably the last time he tells Lu Qingjiu. Up.
Lu Qingjiu read his hexagram once, and felt that there was an unknown aura in it, but after reading it carefully, he felt a little confused. The hexagram image in the front seems to be saying that the next road is very difficult, but the next few sentences hint at the vitality.
Lu Qingjiu tasted it for a while and said, "I know, I will be careful afterwards."
"Yeah." The old tree muttered, "You have a good temper, and you must be rewarded with good people, and nothing will happen."
Lu Qingjiu smiled.
Seeing that it was almost time, he said goodbye to the old tree and went to pick up the white moon fox at the gate of the park.
Bai Yuehu asked them what they were talking about, and Lu Qingjiu told Bai Yuehu the hexagram of the old tree. Bai Yuehu frowned and fell into silence.
In this way, the two of them walked downstairs to the company with a strange atmosphere, and happened to meet Zhu Miaomiao who was downstairs.
Seeing that they were silent, Zhu Miaomiao asked in confusion, "What's the matter with you two, why are you not talking?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's okay, isn't this just asking you to buy me something to eat?"
Zhu Miaomiao said, "Ha, you don't come here. I have already thought about it. With the white moon fox, we must go to the buffet."
Lu Qingjiu: "..." It seems quite reasonable.
Zhu Miaomiao rolled up her sleeves, saying that she had fully inquired about the famous self-service in the city a few days ago, and chose one with the right price and good taste, waiting for them to come. Lu Qingjiu accepted the challenge.
This buffet is not the same as the Japanese ingredients used by Tai Fung Chong last time. It is hot pot and barbecue, with a hot hot pot in the middle and a barbecue plate next to it. The food here can be considered fresh, some cooked or raw, all of which are taken by yourself. After they were seated, they were soon piled up with various foods, and the waiters passing by were so surprised that they were probably worried about their waste.
But soon, the puzzled gaze of the side turned into a stunned look, because the plates with food on the side began to decrease rapidly. Lu Qingjiu and Zhu Miaomiao quickly ate, and both began to feed the white moon fox, and one of them blanched the hot pot. , Barbecue alone, Baiyue Fox is responsible for eating with chopsticks.
"My god, Baiyue Fox's appetite is too big." Zhu Miaomiao exclaimed, "Now that there are so many big stomach kings, I think he is also a way out for eating and broadcasting..." Baiyue Fox looks like, and then Coupled with this huge appetite, no matter how you look at it, it is the new favorite of the eating broadcast world.
Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "You have to find something to eat first if you want to make food and broadcast."
Zhu Miaomiao said, "Isn't this self-help?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "It's fine for one meal, and I have to eat the self-service boss every day."
Zhu Miaomiao glanced at the way the white moon fox was eating, and felt that it made sense. To be honest, she really doubted that he would be blacklisted by the restaurant owner next time.
With the piles of plates next to the Baiyue Fox, the eyes of the people around them became more and more surprised. Some even picked up their mobile phones to take pictures. Lu Qingjiu quickly told Baiyue Fox to leave, fearing that he was going to take pictures. If you continue to eat, you will be watched by the people in the restaurant, and it will close at nine o'clock.
When the three of them left, they seemed very guilty as the thief who had stolen things. They didn't even dare to look around and left the restaurant quickly.
When he got outside, Lu Qingjiu asked Zhu Miaomiao if he wanted to eat a cone to eliminate food, and Zhu Miaomiao happily agreed. Baiyue Fox still looked a little unsatisfied, Lu Qingjiu cheeky leaned forward and touched his belly, feeling that there was still no bulging touch. Several abdominal muscles were clearly shaped under the t-shirt, and they did not seem to be soft at all.
Lu Qingjiu touched his stomach again, feeling a small bulge in his stomach, and he felt vomiting when he pressed the key slightly, so he quickly closed his hands.
"Shall we find a place to sit and digest, right?" Zhu Miaomiao suggested. "There are several good bars in the neighborhood."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Do you still go to play often?"
Before going to work was stressful, Zhu Miaomiao liked clubbing when he was resting, drinking and dancing, and if he was lucky, he could meet a few cute little brothers. Sometimes when she is drunk, Lu Qingjiu will help send her home, because of this, every time Lu Qingjiu will tell Zhu Miaomiao to be safe when letting her go to play alone.
"No." Zhu Miaomiao shook his head, "I am too old and can't jump anymore. Now I have to add wolfberry to a glass of beer. By the way, I think of a bar with red dates and wolfberry beer that is super delicious, go?"
Lu Qingjiu thought that it was still early anyway and there was nothing to do when he returned to the hotel, so he agreed.
The three of them walked towards the bar. Zhu Miaomiao chewed on the cone and answered the phone. After a long time, he hung up and said, "Mr. Wu knows that you are here, and wants to come over for a drink, do you mind? ?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "Wu Xiao?"
Zhu Miaomiao said: "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Well... it's okay." He also wanted to talk to Wu Xiao about his current situation. When chatting with Lao Shu in the afternoon, he learned from Lao Shu that Wu Xiao was in poor condition recently. I was disturbed by nightmares. Because the old tree couldn't leave the park, I didn't find out the reason for a while, and I was quite worried. Lu Qingjiu thought that since the White Moon Fox is here anyway, it is better to let the White Moon Fox help Wu Xiao take a look, maybe he can find the reason.
Zhu Miaomiao talked about Wu Xiao, saying that his temper has been much better since Lu Qingjiu left, and he is also kind, and the atmosphere in the team has improved a lot.
Lu Qingjiu thought that this might be the reason why people feel refreshed during happy events...
Walking into the bar, Zhu Miaomiao ordered drinks and snacks. This time she chose a quiet bar. The atmosphere was quite quiet. A singer with a guitar sat in the center of the stage and sang niche songs that no one had heard. Lu Qingjiu drank the wolfberry and jujube beer that Zhu Miaomiao said. He didn't expect the taste to be much better than he expected. He always felt warm in his mouth.
Zhu Miaomiao ate potato chips and said, "Wu Xiao is here."
Lu Qingjiu followed Zhu Miaomiao’s sight and saw Wu Xiao. He changed into a formal suit and wore a white shirt and cowboy. His upright posture attracted a lot of attention when he entered the bar. Of course, they are here. The best-looking is the white moon fox, although all the attention of the white moon fox is on the fruit plate in front of him.
"Long time no see." Wu Xiao sat down beside Lu Qingjiu and greeted enthusiastically.
"It's been a long time since Mr. Wu." Lu Qingjiu smiled.
Wu Xiao frowned: "Don't make fun of me, whoever is your boss after you have resigned, call me Wu Xiao."
Lu Qingjiu responded with a smile.
I don’t know if it’s my own psychological effect, or the lighting here is too dim. After Lu Qingjiu looked at Wu Xiao, he felt that his face was a little ugly, and his eyes were blue, and he smelled a little haggard. Lu Qingjiu Said: "Why, haven't you had a good rest recently? Why do you look so tired?"
Wu Xiao squeezed the corner of his eye and said helplessly, "Yes, I haven't had a good rest recently." He said and glanced at Zhu Miaomiao.
Lu Qingjiu understood what Wu Xiao meant, and said, "She knows all about it, just tell it straight." Wu Xiao was probably worried that Zhu Miaomiao didn't know about non-human things, so he gave Lu Qingjiu a look.
Wu Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words. He raised his hand and unbuttoned his shirt. He didn't maintain a tall sitting posture, and then slumped on the sofa: "I can't sleep lately, and I always hear something in my ears. Whisper."
Lu Qingjiu: "Talking?"
"Yes." Wu Xiao said, "it's a human voice, but I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm going to be weakened by talking about it."
Lu Qingjiu said, "How exactly is it?"
Wu Xiao said, "I can't say that, anyway, it's like talking to my ear."
Lu Qingjiu ate the apple that Baiyue Fox fed to his mouth: "When does this sound usually happen?"
Wu Xiao said, "Before I went to bed, I was fine on weekdays, but as long as I went to bed..." He rubbed his head irritably, "I also asked the old tree, and it said it didn't understand."
He can hear what non-human beings say, both good and bad for him. The advantage is that he can communicate with old trees unimpededly. The downside is that he will be forced to hear a lot of sounds that he doesn't want to hear, and sometimes he will get confused. Something to mess with.
Lu Qingjiu said, "Is this sound only in your house, or when you sleep in other places?"
Wu Xiao said: "both, it will be louder when you are at home." His expression was helplessly mixed with pleading, apparently using Lu Qingjiu as a savior, "Sake, you must help me. I can't handle it, I'm going to have schizophrenia."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Yuehu, what can you do?"
Bai Yuehu was still fighting with Guopan. Hearing Lu Qingjiu's question, he reluctantly put down the toothpick in his hand and looked at Wu Xiao.
Wu Xiao's back was chilled by the cold eyes of Bai Yuehu. It was the first time he saw Bai Yuehu. As soon as he sat down, he noticed the unusual aura on Bai Yuehu. He was still thinking about it. Do you want to say hello to Baiyuehu, but seeing Lu Qingjiu didn't mean to introduce him, he just gave it up. At this moment, Bai Yuehu stared at him with bad eyes, and he actually had a sense of crisis with a thorn on his back.
"Ah... I forgot to introduce it." Lu Qingjiu said, "This is my boyfriend, Bai Yuehu."
Wu Xiao was stunned, as if he was taken aback by Lu Qingjiu's straightforward introduction. He was quiet for a while before he said in a low voice: "Are you gay?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "It should be."
Wu Xiao: "Then you used to..."
Lu Qingjiu said: "I only found out that men seem to be fine when I met him."
Bai Yuehu stared at Wu Xiao coldly and said, "What's the problem?"
Wu Xiao quickly shook his head to indicate that there was no problem at all. He also saw that he had to help White Moon Fox in this matter. Not to mention that White Moon Fox was a man. Even if White Moon Fox was a grass on the side of the road, he had to express two things. People are really good match...
Lu Qingjiu smiled and told Bai Yuehu not to scare Wu Xiao, and Bai Yuehu withdrew his eyes.
Wu Xiao felt that his back was wet, and he didn't know what was going on. He was obviously used to seeing a lot of big scenes, but he was abruptly frightened by the eyes of the person in front of him. It was as if the survival instinct engraved in the bones told him that he must not move. If he does, he will be bitten off his head...
"I can't see why." Bai Yuehu said, "The breath on his body is messy." He raised his eyelids lazily, "Go where you shouldn't be."
Wu Xiao laughed awkwardly.
Lu Qingjiu hurriedly asked where Wu Xiao had gone, Wu Xiao hesitated a few words, and had to confess when he saw that he couldn't get past the confusion, saying that after he could understand non-human conversations, he found a very interesting place. Time will open a market, and the non-humans inside will sell many gadgets at the market. After he found out, he was worried that the old tree would not let him go, so he concealed the incident. He went there secretly a few times. The first few times there was no accident, but after coming back last month, his ears started There was a strange sound, and he didn't dare to tell the old tree, he could only bite the bullet and hold on. Originally planned to find time to come to Shuifu Village to ask Lu Qingjiu, but he found out that Lu Qingjiu would be back in August, so there was no past.
After listening, Lu Qingjiu and Zhu Miaomiao showed a look that you would really die.
Zhu Miaomiao said very rudely: "Mr. Wu, I didn't see it, you still have this kind of childlike innocence in a calm person like you?"
Wu Xiao gave a dry cough, his expression was very embarrassed, and said, "Isn't this curious..."
Zhu Miaomiao: "But you can't be curious about your life."
Wu Xiao said: "Miaomiao..."
Zhu Miaomiao: "Huh?"
Wu Xiao said, "You asked me about the cleansing seaweed. I bought it from that market."
Zhu Miaomiao: "..." She was silent for half a minute, and then whispered, "Mr. Wu, next time you take me to see if you miss it?"
Wu Xiao: "Heh."
Lu Qingjiu can't listen to it anymore, saying that you two are almost done. What kind of cleansing seaweed can be replaced with your life?
Zhu Miaomiao is still beeping, saying that the cleansing seaweed is particularly useful. After using it once, the blackheads are gone. With the honey from the Lu Sake house, it is simply a beauty artifact. The sisters and sisters in the company are all rushing to ask for it. , Unfortunately there is only a small pot...
Lu Qingjiu heard the melancholy in her tone, and immediately couldn't laugh or cry.
But Wu Xiao was excited, and introduced several interesting little things, such as a giant comfortable cushion, a sachet that can make dreams after smelling it, and an apple that can never be eaten... Lu Sake clearly noticed that when he introduced the unfinished apples, the eyes of the white moon fox sitting next to him lit up very clearly, and the little stars called anticipation began to flash inside.
Lu Qingjiu: "...It's almost enough, are you here to sell Amway, or to solve the problem?"
Wu Xiao quickly stopped and said that he was here to solve the problem.
"Otherwise, let's go to your house and see those gadgets?" Zhu Miaomiao has already started gearing up. "Didn't you say that the situation at home is the worst? The source must be at home!"
Wu Xiao: "...go?" He looked at Bai Yuehu and Lu Qingjiu.
Bai Yuehu didn't say a word, but Lu Qingjiu already knew what his vixen was thinking at this time, and there was a bit of helplessness in his tone: "All right, go and see."
Zhu Miaomiao: "Yeah!"
Wu Xiao: "Yeah!"
Baiyue Fox was not reserved, but the gleaming eyes had already come out for his mouth.
So the four of them checked out and got into Lu Qingjiu's minivan. Wu Xiao sat in the back seat and asked casually when Lu Qingjiu bought this car. It was quite new.
Lu Qingjiu honestly said that this car was not bought, but an animal.
"What has changed?" Zhu Miaomiao said excitedly, "Is it a horse?" It's like a white dragon horse drawn in a cartoon.
Lu Qingjiu said, "No."
"What is that?" Zhu Miaomiao asked.
Lu Qingjiu said: "It's a slug."
Zhu Miaomiao and Wu Xiao were dumbfounded, as if they were digesting the name slug.
Lu Qingjiu was afraid that they didn't understand, so he explained intimately: "The common name is slug."
The next moment, Zhu Miaomiao screamed sharply in the car: "Ahhhh, shut up, stop talking, I don't want to listen!!! I don't want to listen!!!"
