Hong Xiaosha was stunned for a moment, wondering if the old man was just teasing them. After all, children in their teens don't know anything about state affairs and family affairs. It is unusual for them to be willing to listen to this old man's nonsense today.

"You guys, no matter what you want to count, the essence is to ask about state affairs..." the old Taoist continued to say quietly.

Hong Xiaosha remembered that her father had always told her to live an ordinary life in this Huacheng, don't be an official or a businessman, just learn a craft and live in peace, so she had a "future" at a young age. Slight misgivings.She looked at the Taoist priest and said, "Master Taoist, what I want to count is the future."

"You can't mess up the order, let this girl finish the calculation first." The old Taoist reached out his hand to signal Lin Xiao to continue shaking the hexagrams.

Every time Lin Xiao threw the front and back of the copper coin on the ground, the old Taoist would use a branch to mark on the ground, namely one point, two points, one circle, and one fork.Hong Xiaosha and Lin Xiao looked at it seriously, but they didn't quite understand what these figures represented.

In the end, the results of the six times were placed on the ground, and the old Taoist made serious calculations for a while, and said to Lin Xiao: "This hexagram is in Jingmen, and it is about falsehood."

"False things? What do you mean?"

"Girl baby, I just said that what you want to count is the state affairs. You should understand the meaning of this hexagram after looking at the current state affairs. However, everything is about a 'change'. The heart of heaven is smooth, the officials are clean and the people are at ease, and the old Taoists never dare to jump to conclusions."

Lin Xiao didn't want to admit that she was really thinking about the fate of the country and the country, but how could a country be so big that a few copper coins could tell the way, and was about to ask more details, but the old man said: "What did you ask?" It is someone else's business, but you can still see your own future in it, do you want to know?"

"What do you think."

"The tiger is prosperous and the official holds the world, and the nobleman takes the military position."

"Martial arts?" Lin Xiao was puzzled, and looked up at the old man.According to her status, the future is already a foregone conclusion, but martial arts is definitely not in the plan of her parents.

The corner of Lao Dao's mouth raised a faint smile, as if to say "the secret must not be revealed".He picked up the copper coins on the ground and handed them to Hong Xiaosha. "It's your turn." Hong Xiaosha took the copper coins from those dirty hands, closed his eyes and said in his heart: Don't think about it, don't think about it, let it go, and you will surely get what you want.

After a while, the result came out. The old Taoist looked at Hong Xiaosha solemnly, and said word by word: "Only prospering official stars, making meritorious deeds, parents are not in prosperous places, but official stars are prosperous alone, or the sun and the moon are officials." Stars are born, tigers are in motion, and ghosts are in motion, and those who are in harmony with the world will become famous." The old man clapped the copper coins in his hand and put them back in his pocket, "Little children, it will be terrible in the future." After finishing speaking, he said: Turning around and leaving, he disappeared into the street in the blink of an eye.

Hong Xiaosha was still in a daze, holding the hem of his clothes tightly - the hexagram was quite different from what his parents expected.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the market where the Taoist disappeared, and immediately after, the boy beside Hong Xiaosha screamed: "Father! Mother!"

Not far away, the bustling market turned into a sea of ​​flames, and the sky was filled with the sound of crying and crackling flames.Following the boy's gaze, a couple was lying in a pool of blood, and their gray clothes had been dyed vermilion.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Lin Xiao asked in a panic. It was the first time she saw such a scene.

Hong Xiaosha's pale face was reddened by the flames in the distance. She didn't hear Lin Xiao's words at all. She raised her legs and was about to run towards the scene of the fire. After she ran a few steps, her footsteps were unsteady and she almost fell down. Before she could stand still, she suddenly heard a whistling sound behind her, and turned her head to see that her younger brother who was standing not far away had collapsed to the ground, and when another loud whistling sounded, her vision was also darkened, her breathing gradually became difficult, her head ached like a splitting pain, her body Once soft, I don't know where I am.

At this time, Lin Xiao was in exactly the same situation. Before she fainted, she softly called out: "Hong Xiaosha..."

After Hong Xiaosha woke up, he found himself lying in the darkness, his body was almost frozen.After a while, he got used to the darkness, looked around, and found that he was in a not-so-spacious woodshed.

She felt that there was someone leaning on her lap, and she didn't dare to move, and she couldn't identify who it was in the dark. Could it be someone who was imprisoned together?

Suddenly, the man moved and pushed his body deeper into Hong Xiaosha's arms.Probably feel cold too.

Just as Hong Xiaosha was about to push it away, she suddenly remembered Lin Xiao who was together before she fell into a coma.Could it be her? Thinking so, he stretched out his hand to touch the head resting on his lap, and soon touched a hairpin, and touched a huge pearl as soon as he touched it.After confirming that this person was Lin Xiao, Hong Xiaosha shook her, "Lin Xiao, get up."

Lin Xiao snorted lightly, but didn't wake up in a daze.Seeing this, Hong Xiaosha didn't continue to call her, but gently moved her to the nearby haystack and got up to find a way out.

Hong Xiaosha groped around, but she couldn't find the door to go out. She continued to grope around, but this room was like a dry well, with solid walls on all sides, and only a faint light came in from the top of the head.

But here is indeed a firewood house - firewood all over the ground.Hong Xiaosha was puzzled. Walking around in the small space, she had completely adapted to the darkness. Although her eyesight was not as good as that of nocturnal animals, she could already see the general situation clearly.

It is certain that the two of them were definitely not thrown from the mouth of the well when they came here, because falling from such a high well mouth would not be uninjured.Moreover, since it is a firewood room, someone will come to cook with firewood, and the cook will not be so troublesome as to jump down to get the firewood and then climb out of the hole.Moreover, is there really someone who can go straight up and down such a smooth wall?

After much deliberation, Hong Xiaosha couldn't think of the reason for being arrested, let alone the countermeasures, but her stomach growled. She didn't know the day and day outside, but she was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back. It must have been a long time since she had eaten any rice. .

Look at Lin Xiao lying on the haystack, whether he is in a coma or in a sweet dream, his face is peaceful and his breathing is even.I couldn't see very clearly in the dark, but I still felt that her petite and juicy, huddled body was a source of pity.Hong Xiaosha got up, took off his coat and put it on Lin Xiao.With a trembling of his hand, he touched the cold hand of the other party. Lin Xiao slowly woke up and turned around. He opened his eyes and looked at Hong Xiaosha puzzledly, "Huh? Where is this?"

"I do not know either."

"Ah?" Lin Xiao was at a loss, "Who arrested us? Why did they arrest us?"

"You asked me, but I don't know anything." Hong Xiaosha shook her head. She really didn't know anything. Brother... Recalling these, Hong Xiaosha was in pain and hatred, his hands were gathering the corners of his clothes, and his teeth were almost biting his lower lip to bleed.

Lin Xiao had just woken up, he couldn't figure out the situation like a little hand who had been ignorant all the time, tremblingly leaned against Hong Xiaosha, "Xiaosha, I'm cold."

Although it was early summer, the place was chilly.Hearing the words, Hong Xiaosha glanced at Lin Xiao, and sure enough, the clothes looked a little thin, so she handed over the slipper that she had taken off a long time ago and wanted to cover Lin Xiao, "Put it on."

Lin Xiao took it and put it on, "Xiaosha, what are you doing?"

"Find the exit." Hong Xiaosha held onto the wall and groped inch by inch.Suddenly, my finger touched a bump, but it didn't move when I pressed it, "Lin Xiao, come and help me."

After a rustling sound, Lin Xiao's thin figure appeared beside Hong Xiaosha, "What do you want me to do?"

Lin Xiao hadn't adapted to the darkness yet, and couldn't tell the distance, so he blindly leaned over, only to be within walking distance of Hong Xiaosha in a blink of an eye.

Hong Xiaosha felt that the warmth from Lin Xiao's words almost rushed to his face, and quickly took a step back, his cheeks were actually burning a little.

"Where are you?" Lin Xiao asked.After waiting for a long time, Hong Xiaosha didn't get an answer. He just said that he was going in the wrong direction in the darkness, and he was getting farther and farther away from Hong Xiaosha.Thinking about moving his feet and preparing to go to other places in this way, he didn't want to trip and almost fall, but fortunately the hands behind him held him so that he didn't fall down.
