Fortune-telling verse

Lu Tingyun looked at me, I failed! What do you mean?

Lu Rongting is not good-looking, but I am not!

In April 10, 6 years of the Republic of China, Lu Rongting accepted Li's appointment as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, occupied Guangdong and Guangxi, and supported 50,000 troops, becoming the largest warlord in Guangdong and Guangxi.

When Lu Rongting was in Guangdong, there was a physiognomist stationed in the street. It is said that physiognomy is very good. In fact, it was an era of war. It's unlucky to see physiognomy. He wants to seek some psychological comfort from God. Therefore, the general trick of warlocks is to deliberately ridicule people who come to visit fortune-teller, such as "you are unlucky, you are going to be unlucky" and so on. Then the conversation changed: "It's a good thing you found me. I can show you the way. " Then lie and make yourself feel guilty. One of the fortune tellers, nicknamed "big sandbag" (named after a big sandbag on the table), swore at everyone and took the lead in making trouble, so his business was booming and he was quite famous.

Lu Rongting had long heard that there were many fortune-telling magicians in front of the Town God Temple, so he thought, I am a great person. I wonder if these magicians can see their "expensive faces"? He wanted to try it, so he disguised himself as a businessman, followed Ma Mi as a servant, shook it three times and put it in the Chenghuang Temple. He casually walked to a fortune teller's booth and sat down, saying that he wanted to see the fortune teller. The fortune teller naturally didn't know that the man in front of him was a warlord, so he used his usual trick to ridicule him first: "Look at you, you loser, walking around when you are dying!" " Within three days ... "Lu Rongting was inexplicably teased, furious and about to attack. His Ma Bian motioned at once, asking him not to reveal his identity. Then the fortune teller "pointed out the maze" and made up a story. Lu Rongting had to submit to humiliation, saying nothing and leaving angrily.

The story spread from one word to ten words and became an interesting story. After that, Guangzhou people have such a saying: "Lu Rongting looks at each other-well (don't) decline (find) decline!" That is, asking for trouble and asking for it. Since then, "the portrait of Lu Rongting" has become a common allegory among the people.
