Chapter 215: The Prodigy Fortune Teller
Thinking of Zhu Xiaodan, Yan Wuping naturally felt worried, I don't know how Xiao Dan is doing in Zhaoyao Town now?
That day, I left the Valley of Death in a hurry, and I didn't have time to say goodbye to the two little girls, well, this is Xiao Dan's sister's hometown, and Du Father's Mountain is where she has lived since she was a child, and she hesitated to go to the mountain to have a look.

When he first met Zhu Xiaodan, Zhu Xiaodan told him that since her eldest brother died, she was left alone in the Zhu family, and she had been out for a long time, and the house was probably full of dust and cobwebs.
Yan Wuping looked up, only to see that Du Fu Mountain really lived up to its name, the mountainside was full of greenery, but the mountainside was icy and white, this mountain was really very high! It was worthy of being the highest mountain peak in a radius of hundreds of miles, and when he looked up from the ground, he saw that the clouds surrounded the mountain, and he did not see the top of the mountain at all.
If you ride up the purple wave lin, I'm afraid it will take more than an hour to reach the top of the mountain, right? Yan Wuping sighed, forget about going to Dufu Mountain, now the top priority is to cross the opposite group of mountains and go to the East China Sea to do business.
Although Dufu Town is not as lively as Zhaoyao Town and Feilong Town, but this town has existed for a long time, and naturally all kinds of industries are neat, Yan Wuping rode Zi Bolin to wander around the town, and found that there seemed to be many more pedestrians on the street than yesterday.
During the flood period, the market calendar in various places was important, and it was a big day for the surrounding residents to exchange goods and buy and sell in a centralized manner.
Today's market is located on the largest street in Dufu Town, Luochuan Street.
Yan Wuping went to Luochuan Street, sure enough, there were people surging here, lively and abnormal, he got off the beast, led Zibolin all the way to see, this Du Fu Town is the border of the Central Plains, the market is crowded with merchants from all directions, some clothes are strange, it doesn't seem like people from the Central Plains, even the goods they sell are rare in the Central Plains, Yan Wuping bought a lot of things on a whim, he bought a large bag of dried shark belly, ready to make dry food, and also bought a bed made of python skin, which may be used in the mountains at that time, after all, there must be beasts in the mountains, and there is a bed that can climb to the tree to rest, which is much saferγ
After shopping for a long time, Yan Wuping found that his stomach was growling, and then he remembered that he had been shopping in the market for nearly two hours, and it seemed that it was past noon, so he walked outside the market with great satisfaction, thinking about finding a tavern to eat.
As soon as he walked to the gate of the market, he suddenly found that there was a large group of people in front of him, almost blocking the road to the exit of the market, and they seemed to be talking about something, Yan Wuping couldn't help but feel curious, so he pushed aside the crowd and squeezed in, it turned out to be a fortune-telling stall.
There was an old man in the crowd, about sixty years old, short in stature and extremely obscene, wearing a ridiculously wide gray cloth coat, the cloth was full of stains and holes, it seemed that he had not been washed for many days, he was squatting in front of a small wooden table and arguing with a few people next to him, and there was a long bamboo pole on the side of the table, on which a flag was hung.
This flag is also considered to be a delicate fabric, but it looks old, and it has turned a little white, and there are still a few holes on the flag, which reads "Fortune divination, no free money." "Eight big characters, the handwriting is quite vigorous and powerful, it seems to be written by a master craftsman.
And under these four big characters, there is a word "Tong" written, but this word is written crookedly, unsightly, compared with the eight big characters, just like a child drawing a rhyme.
The old fortune teller blushed, the green tendons on his neck bulged, he was emotional, and he slapped the table vigorously and said: "I cheated money? What are you kidding? Who doesn't know that my prodigy has been doing everything in the world since he opened his stall for more than 30 years, and he has never received a cent of money with a bad conscience!"
He shouted to a middle-aged woman at the table, this middle-aged woman was about forty years old, and she seemed to be a native of Dufu Town, and she was also full of anger at this time, glaring at the old fortune teller and shouting: "Hmph! You are still a prodigy? You old shameless person who wants to go into the coffin, you still dare to call a prodigy? I think you are a god liar! Come to our Du Father Town to swagger and abduct you! Give me back the money!"
"Why should I give you back?" The prodigy said angrily: "I told you yesterday that a silver coin can only be counted once, and it is not allowed to not collect money.
The woman sneered and said, "You don't want to, old lady, I'm going to expose you liar today!"
Seeing that there were many onlookers at this time, she pointed to the nose of the prodigy and said to the crowd: "Neighbors! This old liar set up a fortune teller here yesterday, and I happened to pass by here, and he was desperate to tell me a hexagram, and said that if he was not allowed, he would never accept money! I couldn't let him calculate a hexagram, and yesterday he received a silver coin from me, but now he refuses to give me back the money, and I hope that the neighbors will call the shots for me!"
Someone among the people knew her and asked: "Aunt Xi, if he is really not accurate, we will help you get back the money, and we will never let the swindler abduct and deceive people in our town! But if he is accurate, Aunt Xi can't ruin the reputation of Dufu Town, right?"
The rest of the people nodded yes one after another, and some of them said: "Aunt Xi, you are clamoring for him to return the money, but what is the hexagram he is telling you? How can you not be allowed? You also say it and let everyone break it." β
Yan Wuping saw that the fortune teller old man looked obscene, and he also claimed to be a prodigy, he couldn't help but feel a little funny, there are too many fortune tellers who are abducted and abducted, there are everywhere, and it is common for them to eat for mixed meals, and ordinary people don't care if they come to fortune telling, because it doesn't cost much to count once.
But this prodigy actually collects a silver coin at a time, you must know that a silver coin is really not a small amount, enough for the living expenses of an ordinary family for ten days and eight days, if it is so expensive, it will naturally be troubled, and Aunt Xi looks like a fool, and she will be fooled if she counts a silver coin once.
Yan Wuping shook his head, it was really a big forest, and there were all kinds of birds, he really had no interest in these, it was still important to eat, and he was about to turn around and leave.
But I heard the West Lady say: "My son went into the mountains two days ago to hunt, saying that he came back at noon yesterday, but he didn't see him back at noon yesterday. β
Hearing about that group of mountains, Yan Wuping was a little curious again, and couldn't help but stop and continue listening.
The onlookers were also curious and asked, "What did this old man say?" (To be continued.) )
