Chapter 153: Crisis Warning
After running around Beicheng District and shaking off the Dongsheng warriors who were chasing all the way, Shan Hui finally found an opportunity to join Li.
"Like...... It went pretty well. "I thought they would stay at home because it was a demon who informed the news, but it seems that I was too worried." ”
"Definitely. Li was also a little surprised, she knew how big this group of people were against demons, and in line with the idea of doing her best and obeying the destiny of heaven, she tried her best to tell everyone the news of the temporary lifting of the blockade, this is what she could do. As for how many people will follow her guidance in the end, it is beyond her care.
However, in reality, it seems that the residents of Beicheng only hesitated for a short time before they began to rush to the west, and it is estimated that most of the people will be able to return to the area controlled by the princess before the invaders reimpose the blockade.
Not only that, but the two also noticed that several street entrances had been cleared before they arrived, and that the enemy in charge of guarding them had either disappeared or died on the side of the street, as if someone had come to their aid.
"Now that the matter here is over, let's go to the east to see if Xia Fan needs any other help. ”
Just as Li and Shanhui were about to retreat, a voice suddenly came from the alley ahead.
"Two, please stay. ”
The two couldn't help but be taken aback, and immediately put on a posture to meet the enemy.
"Don't worry, I'm not an enemy of the two. ”
A figure of a man with a folding fan slowly appeared at the entrance of the alley, followed by a short little girl, "Below-"
"Fang Xiandao?" Li said in surprise.
Fang Xiandao also showed surprise, "You know me?"
"I don't know. It's just a glance from a distance in Qingshan Town. The fox shrugged.
"Qingshan Town, I see—at that time, you were secretly helping Xia Fan. Fang Xiandao suddenly said, "That's why he can change Luo's mind and turn an exam that was destined to eliminate most people into a carnival of mediocrity." ”
"I don't know what you're talking about. ”
The corner of Li's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of Shan Hui constantly glancing at her.
He seemed to be reminding himself to look up......
The fox demon suddenly remembered that after he took off his headscarf, he didn't seem to have put it on again.
She reached out and touched it, and sure enough, both ears were sticking out.
"Don't worry about that, I've seen you before. Fang Xiandao said disapprerovantly, "If it's a demon that harms people, I might even get rid of it, but you obviously aren't." As a wise man who is good at understanding the black and white of the world, he should never use his birth as the basis for his judgment. ”
"Qianzhi, good at insight!" the little girl shouted.
"Oh, I didn't expect there to be an outlier like you among the alchemists. Li raised his eyebrows, "So you received an invitation letter from Xia Fan and came to Jin Xia to help?"
"Ahem, ahem—what kind of invitation letter, I didn't say I wanted to help him!" Fang Xiandao covered his face with a fan, and muttered in a low voice, "Why does she even know about such a trivial matter?"
Kitsune and Tengu shook their ears almost in unison.
The only thing the two have in common as demons is that they both have extremely keen hearing.
"Xia Fan is now fighting against Dongshengguo, do you need me to introduce you?"
"I said that I didn't come at his invitation!" Fang Xiandao emphasized, "All of this is the guidance of hexagrams—and I am just a bystander." ”
"I understand. The diviner should not enter the hexagram in person, otherwise he will be easily punished by heaven. Li said lightly.
"So you also know the art of hexagrams?"
"Master has taught one or two. ”
"Teach the magic to the demons...... Probably a monk from the Sanmon Sect. Fang Xiandao said with a little regret, "It's a pity, there are very few people who are proficient in this technique, if you come from a famous family, maybe we can have a good discussion." For example, my master, although he does not serve in the Privy Council, has a level that is not inferior to that of the guard......"
"Oh, my master, the equivalent of the green sword. ”
"What-" Fang Xiandao almost didn't choke, "Qing, Qingjian?"
"But I didn't delve into it. Because Master said that it is a luxury to want to find the only direction of destiny in the infinite possibilities. Unless the soothsayer is tight-lipped about the outcome and ignores it, a simple hint, or even a glance at it from a distance, will cause things to change and become a factor in the hexagram. Li spread out his hands, "What is the use of such a spell to keep a secret, to spend a life in possible silence?"
Fang Xiandao opened his mouth, "What did your master say...... It's too one-sided......"
"Maybe. But you're not prompting and waiting, are you? The Dongsheng warrior at the northeast corner of the street was helped by you?"
"It's Qianzhi who did it! I don't care about the young master!" the little girl stepped forward and made her debut.
"And you were the one who led people to escape, right? I must say thank you for helping us a lot. You've done a step, and you don't seem to be following the rules you said, "Don't go into the hexagram yourself." ”
"Young master, do you want to recognize what others have done?"
"You shut up first!" Fang Xiandao cleared his throat and forcibly reversed the topic, "It has nothing to do with me to guide or anything, as for those attackers, I am just defending myself and fighting back, not to mention that this is all trivial matters! The reason why I am here to see you is to make the two of you Her Royal Highness...... Or bring a message for Xia Fan. ”
"Your prediction?" Li asked.
"Yes, the water sign in the hexagram is dark and viscous that I have never seen before, which means that there will be a disaster in Jinxia City. Fang Xiandao put away the folding fan and said in a deep voice, "Although I don't know what it means, this level of warning is definitely not something that a person like you and me can deal with. So my advice is to leave Jinxia City before nightfall today, and go as far as possible. ”
"Chichi, good at warnings!" the little girl echoed.
Li was silent for a moment, "I think, this shouldn't be your first divination after coming to Jinxia, right?"
"Of course. Why do you ask this?"
"So did you calculate that Xia Fan and the princess would enter the city before the local army arrived, and confront the enemy of Dongsheng Kingdom head-on?"
"......" Fang Xiandao was speechless for a while. Hexagram could not predict Xia Fan's actions, so he deliberately set aside Xia Fan's factor when divination, and only performed spells on the changing conditions of Jinxia City. But even so, he still couldn't find clues in advance from the muddy hexagram. In the end, it was my own eyes that witnessed the answer.
Could it be that it was because he had never considered that possibility that he indirectly affected the outcome of the hexagram?
"Since you don't plan to see Xia Fan, then let me leave. Li politely arched his hand, "But after meeting you, I now think that this divination may not be useless." ”
Fang Xiandao looked up at her unexpectedly.
"At the very least, it can help us anticipate the danger and then intervene with the outcome in anticipation. Li said slowly, "Even if the price is to get involved." ”
