Chapter 27: The Fortune Teller
A few days later, in Yiguo's Yaocheng, because the horses couldn't support it anymore, we had to find an inn to stay.
It's really a little unaccustomed to staying on the rocking carriage every day and suddenly stepping on the flat ground, but I feel that the sky is spinning for a while, and the mud behind me helped me, and wondered: "Sister tassel, is this too drunk?" ”
"Aren't you dizzy?" After asking, he turned his head to look at Wei Luo and Xiao Ran behind him, and the two of them followed very normally.
I'm alone?
After so many years of riding in the carriage, I actually started to get motion sickness......
In the hall on the first floor of the inn, we sat down around the table and called Xiao Er to order some wine and food. At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a cyan robe and a cloth hat walked in slowly holding a white cloth flag.
The words "divination, fortune telling" written on the white cloth banner attracted me. Many, many years ago, Lou Guo has banned the fortune telling, the specific reason I can't remember clearly, probably the fortune teller calculated the time when King Lou died, King Lou was furious and beheaded this person, and then issued an edict that all fortune tellers were detained. Therefore, there has never been a fortune teller in Lou Guo for so many years.
The man in the blue robe sat down at the table next to us, leaned on the bamboo pole with the white cloth banner on the table, asked for a cup of tea, and drank it alone.
Seeing that I had been staring at this fortune teller in a daze, Xiao Ran flicked my head and said strangely: "So you like to be a little older and like that?" ”
He glanced at him, and before the words of reprimand could be spoken, Willow was the first to get angry, "Who do you say is old?" ”
"Ahem...... Xiao Ran choked a few times, waved his hand at him, and pointed to the fortune teller on the side to explain: "I'm talking about him." ”
"Huh! Tassel looked at him at most because he thought it was a little strange that he could tell fortunes. Willow said and waved at the fortune teller, "Sir, can you help us calculate a hexagram?" ”
When the man in the green shirt and cloth hat heard this, he put down the teacup and walked over with the white cloth banner beside him.
"If this son wants to divinate or look at his face?"
Willow didn't answer, but just turned his head to look at Jiuli, who got up very cleverly and added a stool to come over, motioning for the fortune teller to sit down.
"Childe's heavenly court is full, and the earth pavilion is round, he is really not an idle person, but Gongzi has a sick face, I am afraid that it will be caused by the disaster." The fortune teller stroked the inch-long beard on his chin and said with a burning voice.
The cause of the catastrophe?
"What do you mean, sir?"
The fortune teller turned his gaze to me, then took out six copper coins from his sleeve, gently threw them on the table, and after some hexagrams, replied: "It's the peach blossom tribulation, if the hexagram is correct, this son's calamity is all caused by the girl." ”
"Get out!" Before I could speak, Willow suddenly raised his hand and slapped it on the table, "Disappear before I can kill you." ”
The fortune teller turned pale, got up and walked to the door of the inn, and left a sentence before stepping over the threshold.
"If you want to escape the peach blossom catastrophe, you must cut the peach blossom and break the fate."
Wei Luo and Xiao Ran threw the cups in their hands towards the door at the same time, only to hear a heart-rending scream and the sound of the cup breaking.
"Don't take his words to heart, he's just a liar." Xiao Ran saw that my face was a little strange, and said comfortingly.
"Well, it's okay, I just thought of someone out of the blue." I shook my head slightly, and then looked at Wei Luo: "Where is Xiahou Ying now?" ”
Wei Luo looked at me with some puzzlement, and only after a moment did he say, "I didn't know about her in the prison before, but after the throne was passed to my righteous brother Su Che. ”
"I don't know that Weishenme suddenly remembered her...... Hehe, it's okay, let's eat! ”
"You must have been too tired lately, wait until you finish eating and go upstairs to get some rest." Willow poured some food into my bowl and admonished.
He must think that I am very confused, even I feel that my mind is a little abnormal recently, the appearance of a fortune teller I actually think of Xiahou Ying, is there no her to rob me of the father-in-law, I am lonely?
He shook his head desperately and shook this boring thought out of his head.
In the room, I was lying alone on the bed with my eyes closed, tired but never sleepy. The fortune teller's words have been echoing in my ears, "If you want to avoid the peach blossom disaster, you must cut the peach blossom and cut off the bad fate."
Is my fate with Willow a bad fate?
If he hadn't met me, he would have dominated the eastern corner of the land by now and become the supreme king of this land, and I was the one who blocked his path and made him what he is now, right......
A slightly cool finger touched my frown, and Willow whispered in my ear: "Fool, I always love to think like this, no matter what I become, it's not your responsibility, all right and wrong cause and effect have a definite ......"
His gentle kiss landed on my forehead, and a wave of sleepiness came over me, and I gradually sank into sleep.
When I woke up, I felt warm, and Willow slept beside me, covering her with the big bulge she had used to be. Looking up slightly at the dark window, I slept a little dazed, and I didn't know what time it was.
"Awake?" Willow closed his eyes and suddenly spoke.
I was startled, patted my heart and asked, "Did you not sleep, or did you just wake up?" ”
"I just woke up, I'm only ugly now, let's sleep for a while!"
"Hmm......" turned over and got into his arms, sniffing the faint smell of medicine on his body, and suddenly thought of one thing, "Did your mother give you that bottle of painkiller?" ”
"......" Willow was stunned, wrapped his arms around me, and his voice trembled inexplicably: "Yes, what's wrong with you lately, you feel that there is something wrong with everything." Is it too stressful? ”
"I don't know what's wrong with me...... Willow, I'm so scared, really scared......" Nestled in his broad arms, his body trembled slightly. Ever since I knew that Willow had been poisoned by Gu poison, I had survived every day in fear, and now the closer I got to Cangliao, the more scared I became......
In case we don't find Shirasawa......
What if there was no Bai Ze in the first place......
In case Bai Ze's blood can't live and die flesh and bones......
So what should I do?
"Don't be afraid, you have to have faith in me. Anyway, I promise you, I will definitely live and watch Jing'er grow up with you, okay? Willow stroked my long hair and said softly.
"Well, let's watch Jing'er grow up together, watch him marry his daughter-in-law, and then we will have grandchildren, and grandchildren will grow up slowly...... If we are lucky, maybe we can still see the grandson taking the daughter-in-law...... "Looking at the layers of light gauze curtains beside the bed, I look forward to a better life in the future." As long as I can save Willow's life, I'm willing to give me anything in exchange.
