Chapter 698, Fortune Telling
"Be specific."
I opened my mouth to ask, Master Huang on the other side was frightened, his body trembled vigorously, nodded and explained: "About 30 years ago, although I didn't have much ability in Taoism, I was very talented in some formations in the sky, and I learned a lot of wonderful formations that have been lost from a master in Laoshan back then. Later, I was summoned to the headquarters of the Ten Permanent Servants by the boss of the Ten Permanent Servants to design the headquarters defense system of the Ten Permanent Attendants for him. I kneaded together the five formations to form at least twenty-five normal changes and as many as hundreds of abnormal changes. ”
Hearing this, I didn't think it was so powerful, there were not many big factions I had been to, when I first went to Maoshan Mountain, the huge formation covering the entire Maoshan Mountain had almost infinite changes, so it was called awesome.
"Is your formation like this considered a pass? I don't think the boss of the Ten Standing Servants is so easy to fool. ”
I spoke directly, with a lot of doubts in my tone.
Master Huang's face froze, and then he let out a long sigh before he said, "Actually, the defense system I am responsible for is only on the periphery of the headquarters of the Ten Standing Servants, and the real core area is in charge of another person. Even back then, we hadn't met a few times, I only knew that he was a warlock and had a deep practice, but after so many years, I can't tell if he is still alive. However, I still remember his name, his surname is Tan, and his single name is a phoenix, and no one in the circle has seen him over the years. ”
Sure enough, the boss of the Ten Standing Servants would not rest assured that the safety of his lair would be handed over to an unreliable Laoshan Taoist.
The enchantress first escorted Master Huang to the fifth group of the national brand, while I went back to the hotel first.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the hotel, I saw that on the opposite side of the road, someone set up a small stall, a fortune teller, who looked not very old, about 35 years old, wearing a tattered robe, and set up a very small desk, looking like a cottage.
But this guy dares to set up a stall near the city center, and he is bold enough, and if a batch of chengguan is washed away, he will be fined and squatted for a few days.
I got out of the taxi and was about to walk back to the hotel, when I heard the fortune teller whisper, "It's a terrible thing." ”
It was supposed to be a very light sentence, but for some reason it got into my ears, and I was startled, and I glanced back at him, but he smiled at me, made a gesture of please, and motioned for me to sit down.
This makes me feel novel, if I am an ordinary person, then these fortune tellers' tricks may be able to deceive me, now many fortune tellers walking around the market, almost all of them are liars, few have real skills, mainly to grasp the mentality of the person who wants to tell fortunes, can speak, can cheat other people's money.
However, most of the fortune tellers have good eyesight, and they can see which people are easy to deceive and which people are shrewd.
I smiled and shook my hand and said, "I am indeed a murderer, I know." ”
After finishing speaking, I raised my foot and was about to cross the street, but he spoke again: "You have a dangerous face, red on the top and black on the bottom, there is a red light between your luck, come to me, you have killed someone recently, am I right?" ”
He said these words to a certain level, and he succeeded in arousing my interest, I smiled slightly, walked over, and sat down across from him.
The fortune teller in front of him has not long hair, and the skin on his face is also pimpled, and he is even more different from those fortune tellers on the street, but he reveals a poor sourness.
"Then I'll do the math, how to calculate? What are you good at, looking at faces, looking at hands, or measuring words? ”
There was some ridicule when I spoke, but he didn't move, just shook his head slightly, and said, "You and I are both people in the circle, so why bother each other." I don't look at your eight characters, I just help you make a divination, that's all. ”
As he spoke, he took out nine copper coins, stuffed them into a turtle shell, shook them slightly, and poured them into a porcelain bowl.
Of the nine copper coins inside, only one fell out, I was stunned, laughed and said, "Your turtle shell is too bad, I'll give you one when I go back." ”
However, as soon as I finished speaking, the fortune teller on the other side also smiled, shook the turtle shell in his hand, there was no "jingle bell" sound in it, I was shocked, just poured in nine copper coins, how did I pour out one, and the other coins were gone? Could it be that this guy is a trickster?
I reached out and took the turtle shell, and there was really nothing in it!
"Please be uneasy, I'll take a look at this copper coin for you."
He stretched out his hand and took the copper coin out of the porcelain bowl and placed it on the table, and I looked at it and was taken aback at the fact that the copper coin, which looked like a hole square, had been replaced with a copper plate with a different pattern printed on it.
There is a sword engraved on the front and a person carved on the back, which surprised me to look at it.
"Can you play tricks?"
I opened my mouth to ask, but he still didn't move, and said, "I think someone told you that you are alone in this life after all, and I am afraid that the only thing that will accompany you is this long sword." I see you with a bad omen on your face, but not just for this period of time, but for your whole life. After all, it's bloody and bloody, after all, it's swords and swords, what a poor person, Duanmusen. ”
He knows me! I immediately got up from my chair, took a step back, and looked defensively at the fortune teller in front of me. He laughed and said: "Don't be nervous, I said before, you and I are both people in the circle, your fame is too loud, it's hard to think about it." ”
As he spoke, he stood up and began to tidy up his stall, and looked at the sky, as if counting the time.
"It's going to rain, eh, it's time to call it a day. If you and I are destined, we will meet again, oh, it should be tonight, hopefully, when we meet again, you will not show so many surprised expressions. ”
He carried the packed box, slowly walked into the distance, all the way, the pedestrians around him pointed at him, he seemed to be a person out of place, completely different from this society, this world.
When he came to the intersection and turned around and disappeared, the sky of Beijing was rarely exposed to black clouds, the wind blew, and the heavy rain fell a few seconds later.
It's just that I don't know his name yet, but he said that I will see him again tonight, and I don't know if it's true or not.
After walking back to the hotel, the enchantress was not there, turned on the computer, received the email, and asked Heidan to leave for Beijing to find me in the next few days. After that, I started asking some of my friends in the circle if there was a wandering fortune teller in Beijing.
However, many friends in the circle told me that there are many fortune tellers in Beijing, and there are a few who are Taoist, but they are all good, and I have never heard of anyone setting up a stall on the street.
This makes me very puzzled, could it be that I am thinking too much, this person may know some things about our supernatural circle, and also know my name, and deliberately said some mysterious things to lead me to the bait.
But since I couldn't figure it out, I simply didn't think about it, and was about to get confused and continue to sleep, but Niu Lao came to my room, looked a little dissatisfied with his face, and put a report on the table.
"This is the Enchantress's report on what you did in the Tongtian Society in Beijing, do you know how many people you killed last night? And right under our noses, I don't want you to continue to be so impulsive in the future! ”
Listening to Niu Lao's words, I just nodded, the demon came too quickly last night, I didn't even notice it, to be honest, this thing actually really makes me wonder, why did I have something to do with the devil?
"By the way, you went to Fengtai District to run once in the evening, and several of our team members were killed there, I hope you can do better this time, don't let me down, and don't poke out the big basket!"
After Niu Lao finished speaking, he shook the door and left.
I sat in front of the computer and saw a new email from the Enchantress, and when I opened it, it was the result of the interrogation of Master Huang by the fifth group of the national brand, as well as the portrait of Tan Feng drawn according to Master Huang's memory.
It's just that Master Huang's memory is blurred, and the description is not good, so the portrait of Tan Feng drawn should not be reliable. However, the Enchantress pointed out in the email that Master Huang said that Tan Feng was a wandering warlock and was good at divination, he looked very ordinary, but he didn't love fame and fortune, he just liked to get in touch with new things.
And I looked at the portrait attached to the email, and for a moment I was a little stunned, although the facial features are different, although the portrait is very blurry, but I feel that this portrait is somewhat similar to the mysterious fortune teller I saw before.
But strictly speaking, Tan Feng should be about the same age as Master Huang, or even older, but the mysterious fortune teller I saw before was 35 years old, and on closer inspection, the two were very different.
I can only blame myself for being too tired for this illusion.
In the evening, accompanied by Enchantress, I went to the bottom of a factory dormitory building in Fengtai District, which had been cordoned off by the police, and entered two members of the fifth group of national brands, but in the end they were thrown out.
I walked over to the corpses, pulled back the white cloth, and at first glance I saw the bite on their necks, two distinct circular bite marks! The deceased's face was even bluer, his eyes were dark, and his nails seemed to be getting longer.
I frowned and said, "Zombies did it." ”
