Jinzhou is located in the southwest, not far from Mengzhou, as soon as possible, it only takes about seven or eight days.

Lu Zhaoling and Shen Fengjiu did not delay any longer, and hurried to Jinzhou on the afternoon of the seventh day.

This southern town is small in size, but it is sophisticated at every turn. In the streets and alleys, whether it is buildings or pedestrians, they all show a lazy and enchanting attitude.

The two entered the city and led their horses to find Shen Fengjiu's master.

"Does your master live in Jinzhou City?" Lu Zhaoling asked curiously.

She originally thought that people like Shen Fengjiu were all living in seclusion in the uninhabited mountains.

"Hmm." Shen Fengjiu nodded.

I don't know what his master will be like if he can teach an apprentice like Shen Fengjiu? Maybe it's even more difficult to get along with than Shen Fengjiu? Will it be very harsh?

Lu Zhaoling was a little apprehensive in his curiosity.

As he was walking, Lu Zhaoling lowered his head and saw clusters of flowers carved on a green brick under his feet, and was about to sigh at the fineness of this Jinzhou City, when suddenly a pair of grass shoes stepped on the green brick.

Out of nowhere, a fortune-telling old man jumped out, closed his eyes, grabbed Lu Zhaoling's arm, and shouted exaggeratedly: "Ouch! This girl, have you been having trouble lately? I, Shen Banxian, am blind, and I can see this frustration on you from afar. Fortunately, you met me today Shen Banxian and relieved the disaster-"

The old man who suddenly jumped out was wearing a tattered Taoist robe, holding a banner with an "iron mouth" in one hand, and grabbing Lu Zhaoling with the other, shaking his head and talking endlessly.

What's the matter with this man......

Lu Zhaoling subconsciously took half a step back and pulled his arm back.

But the old man's hand was so strong that he grabbed Lu Zhaoling tightly and refused to let her go.

She looked at Shen Fengjiu at a loss, and was about to speak, but Shen Fengjiu preemptively said, "Open your eyes and see, it's me." ”

Interrupted by Shen Fengjiu, the old man smacked his lips, lowered his head, opened a slit in his eyes, glanced at it, and quickly closed it.

"Oh, it's you." The old man said, and finally let go of Lu Zhaoling.

Lu Zhaoling involuntarily retreated towards Shen Fengjiu's side.

"People brought it." Unexpectedly, Shen Fengjiu said such a sentence to the old man.

Lu Zhaoling glanced up at him, and always felt that he was going to be abducted and sold to charlatans by this person.

She grabbed Shen Fengjiu's sleeve and smiled stiffly: "This is your friend?" ”

Shen Fengjiu glanced at her obliquely, and said lightly, "It's my master." ”

…… Yes?!

Lu Zhaoling looked back and forth at the two in front of him in disbelief.

This fortune-telling old man and charlatan is Shen Fengjiu's master?!

Lu Zhaoling almost blurted out this sentence in his heart, but forced it back.

"Hmm......" The old man stroked his unkempt beard, obviously with his eyes closed, but he looked Lu Zhaoling up and down, "Take a closer look, people are right." Why are you so depressed? It's all dazzling for me, tsk. ”

The old man looked like he thought she was too unlucky, and shook his head in disgust.

"Forget it, let's go back and talk about it."

After speaking, he raised his feet and got into a small alley on the side of the road, Shen Fengjiu followed without saying a word, Lu Zhaoling hesitated for a moment, and had no choice but to follow with a sad face.

The three of them, led by the old man, turned around in the winding alleys of Jinzhou City for a long time, and finally stopped outside a courtyard gate. The yard was deep in a narrow alley, and there were no other homes around.

The old man took out a key and unlocked the door, letting the two in.

This courtyard is far away from the downtown area, the courtyard is simple and quiet, but there is a little bit of a hidden high-level residence.

The three of them entered the main hall, although the old man was Shen Fengjiu's master, he didn't put up any shelves, he casually made a pot of fragrant tea, poured it for the three of them, and then sat opposite Lu Zhaoling, finally opened his eyes, and stared at Lu Zhaoling carefully.

"It's unremarkable." The old man came to a conclusion, "There is no scheming, and no kung fu is good." It's hard to do. ”

"Good cooking." Shen Fengjiu seemed to add very seriously.

…… I thank you for speaking for me.

Lu Zhaoling looked at Shen Fengjiu and secretly rolled his eyes.

"Seeing that she is so mournful, you have already told her about the Ryuk Kingdom?" The old man asked.

"Yes." Shen Fengjiu replied.

"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?" The old man suddenly turned to Lu Zhaoling.

Lu Zhaoling wanted to ask a lot of things, and now he was stared at by this strange old man, and he was a little stunned in his mind for a while.

The old man narrowed his eyes and sighed, "Why are you still a little stupid." ”

"I'm not stupid!" Lu Zhaoling said angrily.

The old man ignored Lu Zhaoling's rebuttal, took a sip of tea, and chattered to himself: "Let me introduce myself first, the old man is Shen Fengjiu's master, named Shen Lingyan, that is, he speaks very smartly and can tell fortunes. ”

"Hmm......" Lu Zhaoling nodded slowly and suspiciously, "Then you are a teacher...... Is it a fortune teller? ”

Shen Lingyan glanced at Lu Zhaoling, with a look of this girl's incomprehension: "This master is only an old man and this rebel, and only one person is inherited in each generation, this is the rule of the master." As for what we do," he stretched out a finger and nodded at Lu Zhaoling, "It's about you." ”

"So why the hell are you helping me?" Lu Zhaoling asked the question she had been wondering for a long time.

"Every once in a while, or a few years, or decades, or even hundreds of years, a 'destiny' is born in this world. Our teachers have passed down from generation to generation in order to protect the 'Mandate of Heaven' that was born in the world. This time, the 'destiny' is you. Shen Lingyan said.

Lu Zhaoling heard it in a fog, but he still didn't understand why and said: "What does the so-called 'Mandate of Heaven' refer to......?" Is it the one who wants to save the world? ”

"It doesn't have to be people. It's hard to explain this clearly, and you don't understand it. Besides, no one can know what the 'destiny' you are carrying is, you can only slowly experience it yourself. Shen Lingyan didn't bother to explain, "You can ask something else." ”

How does this old man look like a charlatan......

Lu Zhaoling was secretly speechless.

"And where is my brother now, do you know?"

"It's still in the northwest."

"Can you figure out a more specific direction?"

"I can't." Shen Lingyan said simply.

"Aren't you a half-immortal?" Lu Zhaoling rolled his eyes.

"If I can figure out everything, why don't I become an immortal? Still doing half-immortals here? Shen Lingyan said confidently, "Fortune-telling is very random, people can only calculate what God wants people to know, and this has nothing to do with the complexity of the matter itself." So don't think it's easy to calculate a position, God doesn't want people to know, even if it's a half-immortal, it can't be counted. ”

Shen Lingyan was right-headed, and Lu Zhaoling was confused when he heard it.

"Anyway, your brother can only be found by yourself. All I can do is send this rebel with me and do me a little help on the way. Shen Lingyan said.

"Tsk." Lu Zhaoling pursed his lips.

This trip was simply nothing.

"Then we'll leave tomorrow morning and continue west to find my brother." Lu Zhaoling felt that he couldn't ask anything from Shen Lingyan, so he decided to go west as soon as possible.

"Impulsive, reckless." Shen Lingyan commented, "Now the west is very chaotic, just with your little ability, if you go, you will be sent to death, even if my apprentice has the ability to go to the sky, he can't protect you, you are too weak." ”

Lu Zhaoling choked with anger, but he couldn't refute it.

“…… So what do you say? ”。

Shen Lingyan smiled and said, "Don't be impulsive, the old man has his own plans for this." ”
