Chapter 31 Host, you are too shameless

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the old man subconsciously glanced at the gathered crowd, his face flushed as he said, "Don't exaggerate. I've never made a mistake in my fortune-telling. How can you say you're feeling guilty?"

At this time, the argument between the two became more and more intense, and many people gathered here.

The system then reminded: [Host, stop while you're ahead. Attracting too many people is not good for you.]

【knew. 】

The reason why he had made such a scene with the old man was to create momentum, and now it was almost done.

So he said to the system: [I will designate someone, please take a look.]

As he spoke, he pointed to a middle-aged woman in a waistcoat at the front of the crowd: "This is her."

【good! 】

The system quickly searched for relevant information about this woman, and then told Tang Xiaoyun: [Someone in her family just died, and her son is bedridden.]

[Okay, I understand.]

After that, Tang Xiaoyun pretended to be mysterious and called the woman over, saying, "Sister-in-law, please stay."

The woman stopped and turned to look, then asked, "What's going on?"

"I see that my sister-in-law's face reveals the aura of death. May I ask if anyone in the family has died?" Tang Xiaoyun asked in a deliberately mysterious tone.

Sure enough, the woman, who had originally refused to believe the liars, was stunned and said hurriedly, "How do you know? My husband just passed away not long ago."

Tang Xiaoyun nodded, pointed to the small stool in front of the wooden table and said, "Come here, I'll calculate it for you again."

The woman hesitated for a moment, then sat down in front of him.

To convince her that he wasn't a liar, Tang Xiaoyun continued, "Not only did your husband pass away, but you also have a bedridden patient at home. Am I right?"

Being right once might be a coincidence, but being right twice is no longer just a coincidence.

Another person traveling with the woman couldn't help but exclaimed, "How did you know that? Her son has been ill for several years and has never left the house. Even many of his fellow villagers don't know about it."

[How else can you tell? It's cheating!]

When the system heard this, it really wanted to complain: Host, host, you really show your shamelessness to the fullest.

Of course, it wouldn't say this out loud to offend people.

The woman who had been skeptical before immediately became respectful in even addressing Tang Xiaoyun when she heard that his calculations were so accurate.

"Master, do you have any way to save him? I only have this one son. If anything happens to him, I won't live anymore." The woman said, lowering her head and sobbing.

When Tang Xiaoyun heard this, he was stunned.

He tells fortunes by cheating on the system, how can he cure diseases and save lives?

But to avoid being exposed, he pretended to tell fortunes by counting on his fingers. After a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he gazed outwards of Ning'an Town. His voice was eerie and seemed to come from ancient times: "To save your son from his misfortune, you must follow the path westwards to the ancient Leiyin Temple. There, opportunities will naturally lead you to the path of life."

After saying this, he pretended to be mysterious and closed his eyes to rest.

The woman pondered his words carefully and asked, "Master, I am a common person and cannot understand you. Could you please explain it in more detail?"

Hearing this, Tang Xiaoyun laughed inwardly: [I just want you to not understand.]

But he said mysteriously: "The secret cannot be revealed, go ahead."

"But……"

"Oh, the master has already said so. Let's go back and ask a scholar and we'll know." The man who was traveling with her pulled the woman and urged her.

"Oh, okay."

The woman quickly stood up, took a step, and then stopped. She took out a few coins from her pocket and placed them on the table, saying, "Thank you, Master, for clearing up my doubts."

Seeing that Tang Xiaoyun's fortune-telling was so accurate, the onlooker also wanted to give it a try.

This made the old man beside him very angry. As he packed up his stall, he muttered: "It's really unpredictable. There are all kinds of people in this world. Pah!"

With Tang Xiaoyun's disruption, I'm destined to have no income today. I might as well close the stall and go home to sleep.

Seeing the old man being driven away in anger, the system couldn't help but speak up for him and said, "Host, you are too shameless."

[Listen to your bullshit. If I had any moral integrity, would I be here? ]

That’s right, what kind of good person would travel through a book just because of a comment?

"Master, please help me calculate."

At this time, a middle-aged man was sitting at the table. Judging from his clothes, he looked like a farmer and probably couldn't come up with any money.

He won't do anything that's thankless.

So he said, "I only tell fortunes for people who are destined to be with me. You..."

He paused deliberately, opened his eyes and looked at the other person.

Although the man was a farmer, he was quick-witted and immediately reacted. He took out a few coins from his pocket and said, "Master, can you help me calculate now?"

When Tang Xiaoyun saw the money, his eyes widened unconsciously: "Hehe... ahem, since we are destined to be together, I will naturally help you."

【System, it's time to work. 】

The system cursed him as a scumbag in its heart and started working.

"I see that you are full of worry between your brows. Is someone in your family going to take the imperial examination soon?" Of course, this was told to him by the system, but he just said it out loud.

When the man heard this, he said excitedly, "Master, you are amazing! My son has an exam tomorrow. Can you help me calculate whether he can get into high school?"

Tang Xiaoyun counted with his fingers and said ambiguously, "If it's destined to happen, it will happen. If it's not destined to happen, don't force it. Just treat it with a normal mind. Next one!"

"Oh, a normal mind?" The man pondered and stood up to make room for him.

Another woman sat in front of him and said to Tang Xiaoyun anxiously, "Master, can you help me calculate how many piglets my old sow can give birth to this time?"

"Thirteen, next!"

"Master, what should I do if my old cow refuses to eat grass recently?"

"Then feed it, next one!"

"Master, my family..."

“…”

Tang Xiaoyun was speechless as he had gradually evolved from fortune-telling to veterinary medicine.

After talking for a whole day, he was hungry and thirsty.

He weighed the copper coins in his purse, his lips almost cold to his ears. "Finally, I can fill my stomach. I'll change my clothes before eating."

As he spoke, he walked towards the clothing shop.

Now that he didn't have to cover his face or wear women's clothes, he naturally bought a set of men's clothes and put them on, which made him feel comfortable and natural.

After spending fifty cents on clothes, he still had some money left. He planned to fill his stomach first before thinking about where to escape.

On the other side, the fortune-teller greeted Tang Xiaoyun's eight generations of ancestors as he walked.

In the long and narrow alley, two men wearing the same clothes and holding swords were walking towards them.

The fortune teller was walking with his head down and did not see the two people coming towards him, and bumped into them without paying attention.

"Which blind bastard is this..."

He had just opened his mouth to curse, but when he looked up and saw the two people, his curses stopped abruptly.

He timidly stole glances at the two men's faces, and the other one, with a cold face and a tightly gripped sword in his hand, frightened him so much that he quickly apologized: "Yes, I'm sorry."

After saying that, he quickly moved aside and quickened his pace to leave.

After just a few steps, he was stopped by the other party: "Wait!"

"What else?" the fortune teller asked stutteringly.

One of them took out a portrait from his bosom, spread it out, handed it to him, and asked, "Have you seen this person?"
