Chapter 469 Wei Beicheng meets a master
This feeling of flying freely in the sky was Xu Xia's first experience, and it was really cool!
Although Xiao Huang was deliberately flying slowly, it was still not as fast as riding a horse. At dawn the next day, they had already arrived at Weibei City of Wei State.
Yuanxiao put away Xiao Huang and went into the city with Xu Xia. They chose a breakfast shop and ate and chatted leisurely. Yuanxiao could go without food and drink for a long time as long as he had spiritual energy. But Xu Xia was a mortal warrior, and three meals a day were indispensable.
"Brother Yuan, where shall we go to get news later?" Xu Xia asked.
"Wait and go to the most crowded place on the main street. If you see a fortune-telling stall, just go and ask. Brother Zhaiyue likes to set up a stall to tell fortunes. He has come all the way this way. Before, in Songnan City and Songbian City, I could always ask him about his news, and he was always right." Yuanxiao said with a smile.
"Brother Yuan, is fortune-telling reliable?" Xu Xia chatted casually.
"According to the common saying, if you believe it, it exists, if you don't believe it, it doesn't exist. But for some predictions about Feng Shui, the Five Elements and the Eight Diagrams, there are many people who really have this skill, which is still admirable. It's just that this industry is full of mixed people, and there are also many unqualified people, so it is inevitable that the reputation of the entire industry has been affected." Yuan Xiao said.
"I once met two people who were good at divination. One was called Sanhua, who was only a few years older than me; the other was called Sikong Chunfeng, who was also a master of fortune-telling. People like this are masters with Taoism!" Yuan Xiao explained with a smile.
"That's true! There are all kinds of people in every industry. For example, in the profession of heroes, there are also many people who seek fame and reputation. They appear to be chivalrous and righteous, but in fact they are dirty inside, and even secretly collude with bandits and robbers!" Xu Xia also said.
Yuan Xiao laughed when he heard Xu Xia regard heroes as a profession. Maybe Xu Xia really regards chivalry as a career and a lifelong pursuit!
After finishing breakfast slowly, the two walked side by side along the street until the sun was high in the sky, and finally saw a fortune-telling stall under a big locust tree in the center of the city.
There were many people here, which was a good place to attract customers.
And what was special this time was that there were two fortune-telling stalls under the big locust tree.
A thin middle-aged man, with a stall on the left. An old man with a smile on his face, with a stall on the right.
There were no customers on the side of the thin middle-aged man, who looked resentful. There were actually several people queuing up for fortune-telling at the smiling old man's place. It was clear at a glance whether the business was good or bad.
"Brother Xu, this may be what I said before, the difference between having Taoism and not having Taoism. It just so happened that we met these two kinds of people together. But we are just looking for someone, not really wanting fortune-telling, so it's okay to ask this middle-aged man first!" Yuanxiao said with a smile.
Because there was no one in front of the middle-aged man's fortune-telling stall, it was relatively free, so Yuanxiao was going to ask him first.
"Master, may I ask you about someone? An old man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks and a mustache also set up a fortune-telling stall in this city a few months ago." Yuanxiao asked with a bow.
The thin middle-aged man smiled when he heard the words. It turned out that he was looking for that old man! Of course he knew that old man. He had set up a stall next to him at that time and robbed his business for two days, which made him very angry!
Unexpectedly, the old man left, and today a new old man came and still robbed his business. How could he not be angry?
"I don't know anything and understand nothing. The old man next to him is a living god who can calculate everything. You should ask him! See if he can calculate the person you are looking for!" said the middle-aged stall owner.
The middle-aged stall owner knew who Yuanxiao was looking for, but deliberately did not tell him the situation and insisted that he go to the old man next door to tell fortunes. He wanted to deliberately make the old man next door look bad. He didn't think the old man next door had the ability to calculate the person he was looking for.
As a result, the old man next door has noticed the conversation here, and he smiled and took the initiative to say: "Young man, if you are not in a hurry, wait until I finish the fortune-telling for the people in front, and then I will tell you a fortune alone! You must pay for it!"
"In this case, I will trouble you, old man!" Yuanxiao was of course not in a hurry, so he chatted with Xu Xia on the side while waiting.
"You are just bragging! You lied to those people before, forget about this. I don't believe you can even calculate this person!" The middle-aged stall owner said sarcastically.
"Whether it is accurate or not, whether you believe it or not, it will all be decided by this young man. If he is not satisfied, he can overturn my stall!" The smiling old man laughed and didn't care.
Yuanxiao suddenly found that this smiling old man had a problem with fortune-telling. Whenever he told fortunes to aunts and grandmas, he would grab people's hands and say he wanted to read their palms. Whenever he told fortunes to little girls or men, he didn't need to read their palms. Obviously, he treated people differently!
Wait, I seem to have heard of such a fortune teller, who is he? Yuanxiao suddenly remembered this.
After a stick of incense, the old man who loves to laugh finally finished the fortune telling for the previous few people, and it was Yuanxiao's turn.
"This young man, I have heard what you said just now. You want to find a fortune teller with a pointed mouth, monkey cheeks and a mustache. I guess it is someone like me, but not as handsome as me!" The old man boasted.
"It is true that you are not as handsome and suave as the old gentleman, but your temper and mouth are comparable!" Yuanxiao laughed.
These two old men love to brag, are mysteriously confident, and are also narcissistic. In this respect, they are really evenly matched!
"First of all, it goes without saying that the old man you are looking for must have been here some time ago, as can be seen from the expression and reaction of the stall owner next door." The old man who loves to smile began to say.
"Secondly, the old man you are looking for must have some fortune-telling skills, otherwise he would not have angered the stall owner next door."
"Thirdly, you have a Song accent and came from the north of the city to the south, which means that the old man you are looking for must have gone from Song to the southeast. Young man, do you think the above three points are correct?" asked the old man who loves to smile.
"The old man is smart, and these three points are all reasonable." Yuanxiao admitted.
"So what do you want to calculate now? Do you want to ask where and when you can meet this old man?" The smiling old man asked directly.
"The old man is really amazing. He actually said all the questions I wanted to ask in advance, which really surprised me!" Yuanxiao said. I sighed in my heart. Although this old man is a bit boastful and narcissistic, he is indeed not simple!
"Give me two words for each of these two questions, and I'll try to answer them!" said the smiling old man.
"Qun, a group of people; Shan, the mountain of a high mountain. Just these two words, old man, please explain them." Yuanxiao said casually, because the destination was the Qunshan Island in Donghaizhou, so Yuanxiao said the two words Qunshan.
"Good answer! Qun, you will see you next to the sheep, so I guess the young man and this old man must have met where they met the sheep; Shan, pronounced three, today is the first day, tomorrow is the second day, and the day after tomorrow is the third day, so the day after tomorrow is when you meet." The smiling old man said confidently.
Yuanxiao was shocked!
Good guy! This old man is more powerful than Sikong Chunfeng!
