Chapter 157: The Mysterious Old Taoist Diviner (Part II)
"Hey ......"
"What is this talking about? Why is this old Taoist priest so strange?"
Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan looked at each other, but they were quite unhappy in their hearts, and the shopkeeper saw that he was busy patting Song Xianyuan with his hand, and shook his head, sighed and said: "I said these two guest officers, you guys, are you really a good person......?
After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper sighed again, and then followed the old Taoist priest who told fortunes, took him to the back, and arranged a room for him. This Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan saw that many of the lively guests who lived in the hotel also dispersed, so the two of them also returned to the room, and after entering the house, this Shangguan Xiaowan said to Song Xianyuan:
"I said, little master, what do you think of this old Taoist priest with an unknown surname? You said that at noon we took care of his meal, and in the evening we took care of his accommodation, this person is really strange, like torn pants wrapped around his legs, to stick to us, and the most annoying thing is that if he is old, he doesn't understand human feelings, and he doesn't even say the least word of thanks, as if we should be, isn't it the slippery liar in the rivers and lakes, the kind of inferior people who come to cheat and eat and drink......
Song Xianyuan heard this, thought about it for a while, and then smiled:
"Sister Xiaowan, you are too worried, maybe this old Taoist priest who tells hexagrams is really short of silver taels, but in order to be able to fill his stomach, he deliberately came here to write a song, I think when he opens the hexagram and earns the silver taels, he will leave us......"
"Hey....."
"I hope so, my kind and loyal little master....."
"If that's what you say, that's fine......"
"It's not early, sister, I won't accompany you, I'm going back to my room to rest....."
"That's good, Sister Xiaowan, see you tomorrow morning....."
In this way, there was nothing to say all night, and when they got up the next morning, Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan had breakfast, and continued to explore and look for clues about the Great Seal and Shang Fang's sword. Time flies, it's three days in a flash, and there are still no clues, the sunset on the fourth day, Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan have been running around all day, are they back in the store, okay? The two of them just came back, and the shopkeeper of this store hurriedly came over, Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan didn't know what was going on with the shopkeeper?
"I said, two guest officers, originally, this matter, hey, you say, I can't say it, but I can't say it, so I can only say it....."
When Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan saw each other, they said in their hearts that what was wrong with the shopkeeper of this store today, how to talk and spit out, so he said:
"Shopkeeper, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't lose face......"
When the shopkeeper saw it, the two of them spoke, so he sighed and said:
"Well, since the two guest officers are so cheerful, then I can say, you must not be angry, why is this the case? Three days ago, you helped to give the silver taels, let me live in the room of the old Taoist priest, in my store is eating and drinking, but also eat the best feast, after eating on the plate and bowl, I roughly calculated, about these three days, even eat and drink with fall, there are as many as one hundred taels of silver, the two guest officers were you spent silver two to let him live in my inn, now these silver taels, anyway, this old Taoist priest said that he did not have a penny, but he asked me to come to you two to ask, I also know that you two were just good, so I was a little embarrassed to come to you two, but not to find you two then I this meal money, drop plates, drop bowl money, then who can you find to ask for itSo..... you two look at ........"
The shopkeeper's words didn't wait for him to finish, and then looked at Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan, who were already trembling with anger, especially this Shangguan Xiaowan, she is usually a cheerful and witty girl, but today she is also out of shape, I have seen a thick-skinned person in this world, but I have never seen such a shameless person, we have never known you in our lives, we have never known you, we have to eat and drink and you live, it is enough to do it, you still want a first-class banquet, and you have to break the plate and bowl after eating and drinking, what are you going to do? Look at the two of us who are young and careful, and we are easy to bully, no, it is not okay to do this......
Shangguan Xiaowan was angry, and she pulled Song Xianyuan's hand with her hand and said:
"Little Master, let's go, let's find this old Taoist priest who tells fortunes, and drive away this guy who cheats and cheats, it's just too much for him to do this, if it goes on like this, it won't take three or two days, and our entanglement will be tossed away by him, which is too bullying......"
"Shopkeeper, we won't be short of your silver, we will give it for him, but please lead the way, we want to meet this old Taoist priest who tells fortunes."
"Okay, two guest officers, in fact, I also complain for you, I will lead the way, please come with me....."
In this way, Shangguan Xiaowan took Song Xianyuan's hand, followed behind the shopkeeper, and went to find the old Taoist priest who told the fortune, while Song Xianyuan was angry while walking, but no matter how angry Song Xianyuan was, he was still relatively kind in his bones, so he also persuaded this Shangguan Xiaowan to say:
"Sister Xiaowan, you suppress the fire, although this old Taoist priest who tells fortunes has a bad character, but for the sake of his age, our words should not be too intense, we must reason with him lively, and talk to him about our difficulties, if he can make a difference, we can stay, and it is not too late to drive him away if we can't stay!"
Shangguan Xiaowan heard Song Xianyuan's words, she snorted, and laughed again: "My little master, you! I really have no way, your heart is too kind, okay! Then let's talk to him and reason......
After a short time, the three of them came to the room of the old Taoist priest, and entered the room to take a look at the Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan in the house! I saw this old Taoist priest, next to a table of sumptuous banquets, and meat and wine, which were still done by monks, and the monks paid attention to not touching wine and not eating meat, but this one was good, and it was wine, and meat, not only that, he was next to the banquet, and there was a chessboard on the other table, and there were chess pieces on the chessboard, and I saw this old Taoist priest, who was drunk and smoky there at this time to play chess with himself, he would be in this side, and then run to that side, and his mouth was a strong praise: "Wonderful! Wonderful! This move is really wonderful, high! It's too high, hahaha......"
When he was happy, he couldn't help but be excited, so he picked up a wine bowl and threw it to the ground suddenly.
There was a "snap", it was a smash.......
"Okay, okay, I said this Taoist master, don't fall anymore, you're falling, I'm afraid my small shop is not far from Guanzhang"
"Look up, two friends have come to see you......."
The shopkeeper's words:
"Two friends, let me see ..... there......"
Speaking, looking at this hexagram teller again, one eye was open, and his eyes were closed, he slowly raised his head, looked around, and saw Song Xianyuan and Shangguan Xiaowan at a glance, but this old Taoist master of the hexagram suddenly laughed hahahaha, and said:
"The night owl enters the house, it is nothing to come, since it is here, then accompany my old man is the next game, you lose your treat, and if you win, I have a treat......."
