When the curtain was lifted, the guests let out a burst of exclamations.

Imprisoned in a cage is a half-human, half-ape monster,

Its skull is inverted in shape, its forehead is flat and broad, its brow bones are protruding, and its eye sockets are sunken.

collapsed flat nose bridge, connected to a large, wide nose that turned outward,

The cheekbones protrude, covered with a light layer of brown hair, transitioning to the entire face as well as the whole body,

His chin arches forward unusually, his lips are thin, and when he grins, he can see his pale and messy teeth.

This half-human, half-ape, slightly shorter than normal people, has no clothes, only a layer of thick brown fluff covering the surface of the body.

Sitting cross-legged, with a bent back, two relatively slender arms resting on the knees of both legs,

The wrists and ankles each were wrapped in a pair of heavy, solid metal shackles.

It ignores the cries of astonishment and fear, ignores the inquisitive gaze,

Sitting in silence in the cage, staring at the palm of his hand, and occasionally hooking his slender fingers, he looked indifferent to everything in the outside world.

There is no doubt that he, or rather, has wisdom that is not inferior to that of humans.

"Is this it, Xiangrui?"

The King of Shu sat on his seat, straightened his neck to look at the half-man and half-ape in the cage, and muttered to himself: "It's a little different from what this king imagined." ”

The auspicious rui that the king of Shu has seen is either a pig with gold leaf and disguised as a unicorn,

Either it is the four dislikes, giraffes and other animals that overseas natives pay tribute to,

I've never seen an ape-man yet.

The King of Shu turned his head to look at the thin old monk Annan and asked, "Monk Fade, this auspicious rui can speak human words, right?" ”

An imperceptible look of sadness flashed on the face of the monk of Annan, his palms were folded, and he said in a deep voice in the Central Plains language: "Returning to the prince, Xiangrui can indeed understand and speak human words. ”

"Then why are you stunned?"

The king of Shu asked: "Is it possible, you have to prepare some livestock to worship in order to win the favor of Xiangrui?" ”

The old monk Annan shook his head and replied in a low voice: "Xiangrui is beyond the mortal world and does not care about ordinary etiquette. It is up to him to decide whether to open his mouth or not. ”

Decide for yourself?

The King of Shu frowned slightly, and he still had a temper in his feelings, and he couldn't ask or answer anything.

One of the purposes of his banquet was to see the so-called auspicious skills, and in that case, it seemed that he had to find some good questions to ask first.

"Hmm..."

The king of Shu thought for a moment and asked the ape, "Where are you from?" ”

The ape-man looked up at him, "Heavenly." ”

"Heavenly? Are you a fairy? ”

"It's not."

"Demons?"

"It's not."

"Gods and Buddhas?"

"It's not."

"And what are you?"

"Monk."

"Monk?"

The king of Shu glanced up and down at the ape-man, this auspicious man was short in stature, his body was covered with messy hair, his facial features were ugly and hideous, and even the ugly man with a face full of flesh was better looking than him.

The King of Shu shook his head: "Since you are a monk, how can you be reduced to being trapped in a prison?" ”

“...”

The ape-man was silent for a long time, and said a little dazedly, "I forgot." ”

Can you forget this?

The king of Shu rolled his eyes, and just as he wanted to ask again, he heard the ape sitting in the cage whisper: "It's time to rain..."

The ape raised his palms and covered his ears, waiting for something.

Everyone subconsciously looked out of the hall, only to see that the moon and stars were sparse, and there were no clouds floating in the night sky, so it didn't look like it was about to rain.

"Where's the rain..."

Before the King of Shu spoke, he heard a nameless wind howling,

The silk roller shutters on all sides of the hall were violently lifted and flew wildly.

A flash of thunder flashed in the distance,

Two or three seconds later, there was a deafening "Boom! "A bang.

Fine raindrops fall to the ground and immediately turn into moderate rain, heavy rain, and even torrential rain.

By the time everyone had reacted, there was already a strong wind outside the hall, thunder one after another, and heavy rain that seemed to overturn the heavens and the earth.

It's raining!

Everyone was stunned, except for the monk Annan, who was silently reciting the scriptures with his head bowed, completely cut off from the outside world.

"It's... Kind of accurate. ”

Bai Yongyan muttered to himself, stretched out his palm and patted the ground,

On the floors at the edges of the hall on all sides, wooden steps suddenly grew to keep the rain out.

The ape-man silently raised his head and glanced at everyone present,

Every time I stare at a person, my lips squirm for a while, and I have a word.

The King of Shu couldn't hear it really, so he hurriedly asked, "What is he talking about?" ”

"Time..."

Song Shuqing's face changed slightly, and he repeated in a low voice: "Half an hour, fifty years, thirty-one years, eleven years...

Every time he looked at someone, he told a time. ”

Known as the "Lian Gong", the counselor of the Shu Wangfu Lu Army showed a strange look on his face, "This... What is the meaning? ”

"Could it be that he is calculating the marriage time of everyone present?"

Bai Yongyan gasped, "Don't hide it, in addition to feng shui, Bai is also good at looking at faces."

The time reported by this auspicious rui is exactly the same as the number of marriage fates that Bai Mou obtained from everyone's faces.

Fate is predestined, happiness is your own, do you want to know when you and TA got married? Edit the letter with the name of the man and the name of the woman, such as Guo Jing and Huang Rong,

Send a letter to the Shu King's Mansion Keqing Bai Yongyan to receive,

The letter contains a copper coin or a silver ticket,

You can know the marriage index of you and Ta and the auspicious day of the zodiac for marriage. ”

？？？

Everyone present, including the King of Shu, was all confused, why are you still playing an advertisement for matchmaking?

As if he hadn't heard Bai Yongyan's words, the ape man was still scanning the guests and reporting the time, "Seven years, eighteen years, six months..."

"It's not marriage."

Song Shuqing heard the ape-man evaluate his 'fifty-five years', and his gloomy expression eased a lot.

Yu Yu said: "He reported that it should be our death date..."

Death?

The guests present looked back on their faces, and their faces changed sharply after a short check-in time.

The report time is long, and the expression is also strange, and the desire to talk is still resting.

The ape-man reported the time by himself, and occasionally skipped a few people, such as Bai Yongyan, King Shu, Annan monk, Yu Qingqiu, and so on.

When the ape-man had spun around, he lowered his head again and fell silent again.

"This, this..."

The King of Shu opened his mouth and looked at the monk Annan, "Master, what Xiangrui reported just now is really the death period?" ”

"The poor monk doesn't know."

The thin old monk shook his head slowly, "Xiangrui is beyond the ordinary, far from what we can guess. It may or may not be. ”

"Nonsense!"

The old man of the dancing spider had an extremely ugly face, and said hatefully: "The beings of the Three Realms, the six pleasures of reincarnation, are like the wheel of fire.

The number of life and death, I'm afraid only the book of life and death can say accurately,

How dare a mere brown-haired ape-man talk nonsense? ”

It's no wonder that the old man of the dancing spider is so excited, the evaluation that the ape gave him just now was only half an hour.

"If you want to know if the auspicious report is a dead date, you can just try it."

Bai Yongyan laughed in a low voice beside him: "If Brother Wei dies strangely and violently after half an hour, then it is."

If there is no violent death, then it is not, or not allowed. ”

"Bai Yongyan!"

The old man turned around, his hair was open, and said gloomily and angrily, "You'd better keep your mouth shut." ”

Bai Yongyan smiled: "Brother Wei, don't be angry, I haven't finished my words yet,

If you are worried that Xiangrui is talking about the time of death, you may die violently after half an hour,

It is better to do it before the end of the time limit and take your own life in advance.

How about breaking the auspicious death prophecy in this way? ”
