Chapter 32: Hexagrams

In the city, the oppressive atmosphere was even more terrible in the cold winter, Yeyang tied the carriage to the pillar in front of an inn, and then took Zuo Qiuyan to the inn, sat on a table relatively inside, and said to the shopkeeper who greeted him: "A pot of soju, plus some home-cooked food." ”

"Twenty taels of silver. The shopkeeper was expressionless, stretched out his hand and stopped in front of Yeyang

Not surprised by the terriblely expensive price, Yeyang took out twenty-five taels of silver and put it in the hands of the shopkeeper, and said with a smile: "Please hurry up and serve it quickly, I'm tired." ”

"Hmm" received the tip, the shopkeeper's face improved, but it was only for a moment, and then he regained that poker face, it seemed that the tip of five taels of silver could not win his favor, not just their inn, but the entire city, the shopkeeper who had almost no cultivation could not even pay the cost of passing through the teleportation array, they could only wait for the arrival of the demon gate and be killed

In October, Zuo Qiuyan, who had just turned ten years old, was already one meter five meters tall, and her originally immature face seemed to have matured a lot, and when she saw the gloomy face of the shopkeeper with a blank gaze, she also frowned slightly, she seemed to have noticed something, and looked sideways at Yeyang, with a confused face

Shaking his head slightly, Yeyang didn't answer, but his eyes were full of pity

Soon, two pots of soju and a roast chicken and a few side dishes were sent to Yeyang's table, Yeyang looked at the shopkeeper Xiao Er who put down the food and put down two taels of silver again and then left, and couldn't help sighing

After Zuo Qiuyan got Yeyang's consent, he poured a small cup of soju for Yeyang and also poured himself a small glass, and then waited for Yeyang to move the chopsticks before moving the chopsticks himself

Nodding slightly, Yeyang drank the glass of soju, a warm air came down his throat, and his whole body warmed up, Zuo Qiuyan was eating, while Yeyang was drinking all the time... It's just that his eyes are wandering, and he doesn't know what he's thinking

After dinner, Yeyang bought some hay in the inn, although the black wildebeest is an omnivore, but the hay can be prepared for emergencies, and then moved his muscles and bones and walked outside the inn with Zuo Qiuyan, and at this time the snow outside has stopped, but the street has not become lively because the snow has stopped

Outside the inn, several old grandfathers and grandmothers took advantage of the snow to stop and swept the snow on the street to both sides, and then put it in bags, not knowing where to carry it

At the end of the street, an old man with a child sat at a wooden table, next to which a cloth flag with the word "fortune telling" hung down to the ground, looked at the two Yeyang who walked not far in front of him, paused, but did not stop the movement in his hand The movement with the words written with the brush, and seemed to be talking to himself: "Is it a reborn person or a reincarnation?"

"Sir, what can you count here? Of course, Yeyang also heard his words, but the waves in his heart did not fluctuate much

Yeyang stood in front of the old man, but he didn't sit down, took out ten taels of silver and put them on the table

The old man smiled, his eyes were slightly curved, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were dense, conniving like this, but it gave Yeyang a wonderful feeling of facing the peak in the clouds, and the old man pointed to the chair in front of him and responded: "Fate is also okay, people are also acceptable, the little brother is looking for someone or fate." ”

Hearing this, Yeyang nodded and turned to the side, and said to Zuo Qiu Yan who was standing behind him, "Yan'er, come on." ”

Stunned, Zuo Qiuyan, who reacted quickly, sat on the chair and wrote an almost invisible "left" character on the black paper that the old man took out, and in the process of writing, his eyes, which had been very indifferent, changed slightly, and said to the old man: "Trouble the old man, looking for someone." ”

The old man nodded, and then called to the child who was playing with the snow on the ground, "Xiao Li." ”

The boy heard the old man call him, stopped playing with the snow in his hand, walked to the table, and stood on tiptoe, but could not see the word because of his height

The old man picked up the child and let him sit on his lap, then moved the paper forward and let the child touch the word, looked in the direction of Zuo Qiu Yan with those white eyes, and said, "Sister, the person you are looking for is fine, but he seems to be in a hurry, and he is with many people, they seem to be looking for someone, but the approximate location..."

In the end, Zuo Qiuyan actually found that she couldn't hear, but after the child finished speaking, her ears seemed to have changed for the better, Zuo Qiuyan was very puzzled by this but didn't ask, because in her eyes, there was a scene that was too wonderful

The child just touched the word, and then his eyes began to glow until they turned silver, and then he just blinked his eyes and told her the result

Unlike Zuo Qiuyan, Yeyang saw a pair of huge and terrifying eyes rising to the sky at the moment when the child's eyes began to shine, patrolling the world, and at the moment when the child's eyes were closed, Yeyang saw a vertical eye suddenly appear on the child's forehead, but only for a moment

Taking advantage of Zuo Qiu Yan's practice of talking to the child sitting on the table, the old man stood up, walked to Yeyang's side, patted Yeyang's shoulder, and persuaded: "If you encounter a place in the wilderness of the ancient gods in the future, remember not to enter." ”

As soon as the old man's words fell, the wind and snow stormed, and the thunder crossed the sky on a dry day, as if warning the old man

Yeyang didn't ask the old man why, he just nodded, his instinct telling him that the old man, who looked poorly dressed and had a seemingly blind child, was a terrible, mysterious person

And Zuo Qiuyan, who was sitting on that chair, asked again: "Can you tell me again, where is that person?"

The old man knocked on the child's head and interrupted his slightly open mouth to say the words, and then said to the night sun: "If he is destined in the future, I will give you a hexagram of your life experience." ”

After a while, Yeyang smiled and then touched Zuo Qiuyan's hair and said, "Let's go, go to the Heavenly Domain to find your father, maybe you can find the person I'm looking for there." ”

Despite her doubts, Zuo Qiu Yan got into the carriage and followed the night sun towards the Heavenly Realm

A cold wind blew the paper off the wooden table, and the paper fell into the snow, and the falling snow covered the paper, and then the paper melted into the snow and disappeared again

But in a small house, the old man seemed to see the scene of the night sun heading towards the heavenly realm, knocked on the child's head and scolded with a smile: "Bastard boy is making his own decisions again! Say, what have you seen?"

The child smiled and shook his head, his face a little pale, and the old man did not ask any more questions, and fled into the void with the child
