Chapter 51: The Fortune Teller

Xu Tianci was a little curious, and it happened that Aunt Liu, the proprietress of the fried noodle shop, was also amazed that she had passed by him, so he asked: "Aunt Liu, what's going on over there, so lively?"

"A fortune teller from a foreign country is more accurate than Hu Blind Man from Dongwu and Zhao Banxian from Xiwu!" Aunt Liu's tone was full of admiration.

When Xu Tianci heard this, his heart was a little gloomy, when his adoptive father picked him up, he didn't have any tokens or notes with eight characters written on them.

He didn't know his birthday.

Hu Blind in Dongwu and Zhao Banxian in Xiwu before fortune-telling, they all have to ask others about their birthdays, and without this, they can't be calculated.

He changed the topic and asked Aunt Liu, "How many fried noodles are there in front of you that haven't been fried, how long will it take?" It seems that he is the last guest in this room to come in.

Aunt Liu said: "Yo, at least you have to wait for more than ten minutes, I'm too busy today, and I don't have time to send it to you, so you just wait, and when you're done, you can bring it back yourself - otherwise, you will also listen to other people's fortune telling and pass the time?"

Xu Tianci only nodded, but he didn't gather around to listen to the excitement, he looked at the crowd of people coming and going on the street outside the door in a daze. A middle-aged man walked up to him and sat down and asked, "Still haven't thought about what gift to buy for your adoptive father?"

Xu Tianci was shocked, who is this person, how do you know what gift you are struggling with?

He once tested his adoptive father and asked him if he had anything he particularly wanted, but as soon as his adoptive father heard it, he knew that he had a little calculation in his heart, and said to him with a smile that he would never forget in his life: "You don't need to spend money to buy me a gift, you are the best gift God has given me!"

When Xu Tianci heard this, his nose was sore, his eyes were red, and his heart was so soft that he was confused. Then it took him a lot of effort to hold back his tears, and his adoptive father loved to see him laugh, but he didn't like to see him cry.

But he still secretly saved money to buy a gift for his adoptive father. But if my adoptive father says no, he won't buy it.

Because after fifteen years of getting along, he really didn't find any outstanding hobbies for his adoptive father, so he struggled for a long time about what kind of gift to buy, and he still hasn't made up his mind.

But he never told anyone else about this plan, how could this person in front of him know?

Because he was in shock, when the middle-aged man opposite reached out to touch his face, he didn't stop it in time.

The middle-aged man first touched his cheekbones, then his forehead, and when the middle-aged man touched his jawbone, he reacted, and he shouted angrily: "What are you doing, what are you doing? Pick up animals? Do you want to look at my teeth?"

He bared his teeth angrily and said, "My teeth are good!" After speaking, he rolled his eyes several times.

The crowd of onlookers burst into laughter.

One of them asked, "Is this a fortune teller by touching bones?"

The middle-aged man didn't answer yes or no, only smiled faintly, and then said to Xu Tianci: "Your life is so good!"

Xu Tianci rolled his eyes again and said, "Of course I have a good fate!" "If my fate is not good, how could God arrange such a good adoptive father as Xu Youren for himself?

The middle-aged man was a fortune teller from a foreign country who was surrounded by everyone before, and he seemed to hear Xu Tianci's heart, and said to Xu Tianci leisurely: "But no, your adoptive father is the best person in the world, but he gave you three lives! You are not bad, you are a good child with filial piety!"

Xu Tianci was stunned again, how could this person know what was going on in his heart? Also, how did he know that he owed his adoptive father three lives? Could he really be a master?

The fortune teller smiled faintly and said, "I'm not a master, just a fortune teller with some chance!"

The fortune teller continued: "I just calculated that you were born fifteen years ago on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, and at the age of seven there was a great calamity, which was committed by fire, and at the age of nine there was a small calamity, which was committed by water, and because of the help of your adoptive father, you were spared, and if you do not die, you will have financial luck at the age of twenty, and official luck at the age of thirty, and the wife you will marry will be virtuous, and the children you will give birth to will be filial, which is really a good life!"

The onlookers have long admired this fortune teller from a foreign country, and when they heard the fortune teller say this, they all looked at Xu Tianci with envy, this Xu Youren's kid has a very good future!

Xu Tianci was so frightened that he couldn't speak, he was also skinny when he was a child, and in the autumn of the year when he was seven years old, he accidentally lit a few straw stacks gathered around people, and the fire was together, but he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and he was almost burned to death, but it was his adoptive father who rushed over to rescue him.

In the summer when he was nine years old, he swam in a large pond, and in order to show his ability, he swam alone to the deep water area where a group of friends did not dare to go, but his foot cramped and almost drowned.

Just when he was speechless, the fortune teller pinched his fingers again and said: "It's a pity, your hardship is over, but your adoptive father has reduced his longevity because he interfered with your life too much, and good people don't live long!

After the fortune teller sighed, he didn't wait for everyone to react, so he paid two yuan for fried noodles, packed up his things and planned to leave.

Xu Tianci grabbed his arm: "What did you say?

The fortune teller only nodded, and then, without saying anything, walked through the crowd of people on the street in three or two steps, and stood at the corner of the street.

Xu Tianci was in a hurry, and hurriedly chased in the direction of the fortune teller, and when he was about to catch up, the fortune teller who was standing still teleported a few meters away.

He kept chasing, and the fortune teller kept teleporting, until he got out of the crowd and stood in a secluded and uninhabited cul-de-sac, and the fortune teller didn't move anymore as if he was moved by him.

He approached the fortune teller gently, slowly, step by step, for fear that if he made a violent move, this living immortal with magical powers would turn into a butterfly and fly away.

He finally came to the fortune teller, but he didn't rush forward to grab the fortune teller like a butterfly, but endured his breath, stood still in an orderly manner, bowed respectfully to the fortune teller, and asked: "Living immortals, is there a way to make up for the life loss that my father has lost for me?"

The fortune teller took out the satchel he was carrying, took out a beckoning cat, and said to Xu Tianci: "The lost life span cannot be regained, but for the sake of your filial piety, I will give you a small magic weapon, you put it in your adoptive father's shop, it will attract the vitality of heaven and earth, slowly nourish your adoptive father's body, and ensure that he will be free of disease and disaster for the rest of his life." ”

After the fortune teller finished speaking, he stuffed the beckoning cat into Xu Tianci's hand, and teleported to the distance in three or two steps, disappearing into the crowd and disappearing.
