Chapter Forty-Nine: Three Tarot Cards

……

"Aurora, my dear darling, are you alright?"

As soon as the old woman came in, she took the little girl who was sitting on the sofa next to her into her arms.

"It's all right, grandmother. It was my uncle who saved me!"

After the little girl struggled for a while, she raised her little finger and pointed at Guo Shouyun, who was sitting opposite.

The old woman kissed her granddaughter's forehead excitedly before turning her gaze to Guo Shouyun. After a brief look, he took a few steps forward, and said gratefully: "Fidel told me on the way back just now. Thank you, good sir, for risking your life to save my granddaughter, and please accept the sincerest thanks from the Gypsy Lucero family!"

Looking at the family with his right hand on his left chest, half-bowed, and his expression was solemn and sincere, Guo Shouyun hurriedly stood up.

"You're welcome!hiss...!"

The action was too big, and Guo Shouyun, who was involved in the wound, couldn't help frowning.

"Aika, give me the medical kit!"

After taking the black box in the hand of the young woman Aika, the old woman walked up to Guo Shouyun and sat down.

"I'll take care of your wounds. ”

Guo Shouyun nodded and did as he said.

Soon, the old woman took out some medical tools from the open medicine box. However, Guo Shouyun found that there was not much Western medicine in it. Instead, there are a lot of bottles and cans with labels and different colors. He couldn't read the words on it, and he didn't understand the effect of the potions.

After cleaning up the filth near Guo Shouyun's wound with clean water. The old woman took out a small brown vial the size of a baby's fist from the many bottles and jars, pulled out the stopper, poured out some light gray powder from it, and gently sprinkled it on Guo Shouyun's wound.

Soon, a cool and slightly tingling sensation was introduced into Guo Shouyun's nerves from the location of the wound.

"This is our own gypsy healing medicine, which has a good hemostatic and healing effect. In a week at most, your elbow will be back to normal!"

"Thank you!" Guo Shouyun nodded and said.

"We should be most grateful! Without Aurora, our family would have no hope of survival!" After shaking her head slightly, the old woman carefully bandaged Guo Shouyun's wound with white gauze.

"Mr. Guo, your clothes are a little dirty. Don't worry, I just bought it from the supermarket and haven't worn it yet!"

Looking at the gray shirt Fidel held in his hand, and the sincerity in his eyes, Guo Shouyun nodded. He didn't want to refuse someone's kindness, and his clothes were dirty and torn.

After thanking him, Guo Shouyun changed into clothes, although the clothes were a little small compared to his body, they could barely be worn. However, the 187cm sturdy man is strong, and he puts on a normal dress that was originally 175cm, as if he is wearing a crop top tights, which looks quite funny and makes people laugh.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Guo Shouyun pulled the corners of his mouth. However, funny is funny, and it is better than dirty, old, and blood-stained holes.

"Thank you for bandaging me, it's not too early, I should go back too!"

Now Guo Shouyun just wants to return to the hotel as soon as possible and change out of the clothes that look a little funny.

"Wait a minute, please. Mr. Guo, we have prepared a sumptuous dinner, please stay and taste it with us. Fidel said sincerely.

"Please give us a chance to express our gratitude!" said the old woman.

Guo Shouyun hesitated for a moment and nodded, after all, it was difficult to refuse.

Coming out of the caravan, he was invited to the campfire. Maybe it was because he knew about his rescue, so the gypsies around him were extremely friendly to him.

Roasted beef and wine, as well as some gypsy food, were piled up on Guo's plate. Although they are not as pure as the well-crafted cuisine of Michelin-starred restaurants. But while eating food, you can enjoy a gypsy dance that resembles a Spanish flamenco under a bonfire.

After eating the food and the night was dark, Guo Shouyun offered his farewell.

"Wait a minute!"

Fidel stopped him again. And just when Guo Shouyun was about to ask the reason, he saw that the surrounding crowd got out of the way. Under the support of two gypsy middle-aged women, a woman wearing a light gray robe, with a ribbon on her head, and the skin on her face seemed to be dry orange peel, looking almost 100 years old, walked over with some trembling.

The surrounding gypsies have a special respect for the old woman. As she walked by, they all hung their heads reverently with solemn expressions.

"I've heard them about Aurora. Thank you, kid!"

The old woman walked to a place one meter in front of Guo Shouyun and stood still, her dim pupils revealed a kind of wisdom after reading all the vicissitudes of life, which made people feel respect after seeing it.

"You're welcome!"

Whether it was out of politeness or respect for the elderly, Guo Shouyun was extremely humble at this time.

The old woman looked him up and down, smiled and nodded, and waved her hand to the person next to her. The latter understood, and soon, under Guo Shouyun's curious eyes, moved a table covered with red flannel cloth and two wooden stools with soft cushions from the caravan in the middle.

"Please be seated!"

Guo Shouyun didn't know why, but he still sat down on the wooden bench.

Then, in his astonished eyes, the old woman took out a small bag with pink embroidery from her cuff. After opening the packet, a beautiful tarot card was taken out by the old woman.

Regarding the tarot card, which is equivalent to the Oriental Zhou Yi, Guo Shouyun heard a lot about it in his previous life. In this life, I also received a part of Bruce Kwok's memories of playing tarot cards. So, there is a certain understanding of the basic meaning of the tarot cards, as well as the 22 big Arcana cards and the 56 small Arcana cards. Of course, it's all half-understood.

After taking out the tarot cards, the old woman handed the small bag to the middle-aged woman standing next to her, and then put her hands together and began to shuffle the cards quickly. Compared with her body in her old age, the old woman's hands shuffling cards are extraordinarily stable and powerful. The speed and skill of shuffling are in no way inferior to those young people.

"Son, as a token of gratitude to our gypsies, I would like to do a divination for you. Now, please close your eyes and meditate, and when you feel like you can open your eyes, open your eyes and draw three cards from my deck!"

Looking at the old woman's black and white, as pure as a baby, but with a strange look that has gone through the vicissitudes of the world, Guo Shouyun nodded.

In both his past and present lives, he was in awe of mystical powers.

After taking a deep breath, closing his eyes, meditating for a while, and feeling that all distractions had been eliminated, Guo Shouyun opened his eyes and quickly selected three cards from the card array.

"Emperor, Death, Scepter!"

Guo Shouyun's pupils shrank, and he quickly recognized his three cards.

"What do you want to ask?" said the old woman.

After contemplating for a moment, Guo Shouyun said solemnly: "Future!"

The future is a broad topic, but the strange thing is that the old woman did not refuse. After nodding, he picked up Guo Shouyun's three cards and looked at them. But as time went on, the old woman's brows became tighter and tighter, and an old face like an orange peel seemed to be squeezed together, making people feel a little hideous.

"Why is this happening? Death or rebirth?"

Guo Shouyun's heart was shocked, he knew best what was going on with him.

Soon, the old woman put the three cards back into the tarot and shuffled them again. But this time she clearly took a different approach.

"Kid, please smoke again!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, and smoked again as he said. But what made his pupils constrict was that the cards he drew were still the same as before.

"Emperor, Death, Scepter!"

However, this time the order has changed, becoming the Emperor, the Scepter, and the Grim Reaper.

"What the hell is going on, is there really a god in this world?" Guo Shouyun was full of shock.

Because, when the old woman asked him to draw cards for the third time, it was still these three. It's just that the order of the cards is changed to Death first, Emperor and Scepter last.

Winning the same three cards three times in a row is hard to explain by coincidence.

Moreover, Guo Shouyun obviously found that the gypsies around him had a kind of shock in their eyes.

"Death and rebirth are pregnant with great power and wealth, but the gods have hidden your future destiny, and I can't see through them all, but I can only tell you a few bits and pieces of information to express our gypsy gratitude!"

Looking at the old woman with a trace of exhaustion on her old face, Guo Shouyun hurriedly said, "You are polite, thank you very much for your efforts." ”

The old woman smiled and nodded.

"Kong Sang, go to my room and take out the innermost things that are placed at the bottom of the medicine cabinet. ”

An old man of about sixty or seventy years old was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and his face showed a trace of hesitation, as if he wanted to say something. But after snorting, he didn't say anything, turned and walked out of the crowd.

After a short time, an old man named Kong Sang walked back with a clay vase about the size of an adult's palm and some crimson patterns on the surface.

After taking the clay bottle, someone next to him handed over a cup the size of a wine cup. The old woman pulled out the stopper from the clay bottle and poured some fuchsia viscous liquid into the small cup.

"Child, this is our Gypsy secret medicinal wine. Drinking it will be good for your wounds to heal. Let's count it as our reward for you!"

He took the small cup handed by the old woman and glanced at the fuchsia viscous liquid in it. Guo Shouyun hesitated in his heart whether to drink this thing of unknown origin. However, when he brought the cup close to his mouth, a faint and somewhat strange fragrance came to his nose, which instantly lifted his originally somewhat sluggish spirit. A strange longing for the liquid in the cup rose in his heart.

Looking at the dozens of eyes around him that focused on him, Guo Shouyun found that most of them, especially the men, actually had a deep envy in their eyes.

Guo Shouyun was very smart, and he instantly understood that the purple-red liquid in the small cup in his hand was a good thing. At the moment, he no longer hesitated, opened his mouth and raised his head to drink.

I felt a cool liquid sliding down the stomach pouch, and in an instant, a warm stream of heat flowed through my body, and the warmth was extraordinarily comfortable. The pain caused by the bump when saving people seems to have been reduced a lot.

"Thank you!"

Putting down the cup, Guo Shouyun said sincerely.

The old woman smiled and nodded.

"Kid, after you leave here, you go 12 kilometers to the east, where there is a bar called 'Rose of the Night'. You wait for 25 minutes at the alleyway to the right of the door. The luck that God has arranged will come to you!"

Looking at the old woman's incomprehensible smile and what she said just now, Guo Shouyun was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"Thank you, I'm leaving!"

"Fidel, send off the guests!"

"Yes!"

After Guo Shouyun left, the old man who had taken the medicine before couldn't help but speak: "Mother, why did you give him 'Angmar'!"

"Are you reluctant?" said the old woman indifferently.

"Of course not. We Gypsies have never been stingy with those who have been kind to us. But once 'Angmar' has an attack, if there is no one around...!"

After waving his hand to interrupt his words, a mysterious smile like a chrysanthemum bloomed on the old woman's old face.

"Have you forgotten what I said to him last?"

"But what if he doesn't understand, doesn't understand, doesn't obey?"

"No!" the old woman shook her head, "though I can't see through his fate, I can spy on his character. He's going to do what I tell him to do!

The old man hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"But that's not all Angemal does?"

"Don't worry, no problem. Besides, I already had you when I was nineteen...!"
