When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...
"It's alright, I'll use divination to give you a proper reading!"
Seeing that the Little Six Ren divination method wasn't working, the proprietress took out a few more copper coins and was about to throw them on the ground when Jiang Yuan quickly stopped her, saying, "Proprietress, there's no need to bother with the divination. If you want to tell my marriage fortune, just do it directly. I'll be resting after that."
He couldn't stand the crazy landlady, so he simply agreed to her request so he could get rid of this big shot as soon as possible.
"You really want me to do the math?" The proprietress still felt that her performance just now had not convinced the other party.
"It's just a matter of fate, there's no problem." Jiang Yuan nodded.
"Great idea, then stretch out your hand!" The proprietress was ready to show off her skills.
However, Jiang Yuan frowned when he heard that there would be physical contact. Although he extended his hand, he also ordered the Tortoise Shell Immortal to interfere within his body. If this person really had the power of divination, some secrets would inevitably be discovered.
When the proprietress saw Jiang Yuan extend his hand, she became serious. When their palms touched, she solemnly tossed out a coin. However, four of the five coins cracked after landing, leaving only one standing upright and intact.
"Hmm..." The proprietress fell silent.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan said with interest, "You're lucky! You even managed to stand a copper coin upright!"
The proprietress looked at Jiang Yuan with disdain, then gave up the coins and got up to leave.
"No, isn't this considered a predestined marriage?" Jiang Yuan stopped the proprietress. Wasn't this just deliberately teasing people by divining the divination but not interpreting it?
"This... won't work!" The proprietress shook her head repeatedly as she looked at the divination results.
"Is it because I'm not good enough, or is it because of my bad luck in marriage?" Jiang Yuan pressed. This time, with the interference of the Tortoise Shell Immortal, he wasn't worried about any secrets being exposed.
"None of them are quite good!"
The proprietress spoke in a very serious tone, but Jiang Yuan's lips twitched as he listened. It's one thing to say that my marriage prospects are bad, but to say that I'm a bad person is a huge insult.
"Come here, look!" The proprietress came back and pointed to the divination chart, saying, "These five copper coins were divined according to your destiny lines. Four of them are broken, and one is still standing. According to the divination chart, none of them are normal."
"What's wrong? Could it be that your copper coin is of poor quality?"
Jiang Yuan reached out to touch the copper coins, and the proprietress did not stop him, but just watched him touch them. When he touched them, each copper coin emitted a milky white light, especially the broken copper coin with its face up, whose light echoed his.
"This is the hexagram reflected by your destiny line!" The proprietress grabbed Jiang Yuan's hand to stop him from touching the coins. She continued to explain, "There are four broken coins in total, one head and three tails. The head represents yourself, and the remaining three tails represent the number of your marriage opportunities."
"Then why are they all broken?" Jiang Yuan asked, puzzled.
The proprietress gave me a knowing look, then finally fixed her gaze on the only standing coin, "And this!"
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan stopped asking whether it was broken or not.
"According to the mapping of your destiny lines, the copper coin with a circle on the outside and a square on the inside corresponds to the world of a round heaven and a square earth. In other words, the breakage of your main destiny line will establish a new world. As for the specific reason, it is not clear because there is a problem with your destiny itself, and your destiny line is also obscured by a force."
Jiang Yuan knew perfectly well that the problem with his destiny was because neither his physical body nor his soul belonged to him, and the fact that his destiny markings were concealed was due to the Tortoise Shell Immortal. As for the landlady's analysis of the previous sentence, he simply muttered, "The world isn't flat and round; your theory is flawed."
As the saying goes, knowledge changes destiny, and here comes another forceful change of destiny.
"Your fate is very strange. I can't divine it, but if it were my senior sister Zhong Litong, perhaps she could help you!" The proprietress casually swept her hand, destroying the divination result.
"Zhong Litong!"
Jiang Yuan was startled. Although the name appeared very rarely, it had left a deep impression on him. This person had frequently appeared around Ning Yanlan back then.
Jiang Yuan remained calm, merely displaying normal curiosity, and asked, "Where is your senior sister? How can I find her?"
"Find her? Forget about it. She's got good taste and good luck, and she works directly for big shots. She wouldn't even look at someone like you with your life line shattered! Besides, I don't get along with her, and I won't introduce you to her." The proprietress's tone left no room for negotiation.
"How big of a big shot? Is he as big as the principal of our Huasheng Academy?" Jiang Yuan asked tentatively.
"Heh, you're quite the troublemaker, aren't you? Is there even a difference?" the landlady said speechlessly. This guy's question was really tricky, but it hit the nail on the head.
"How can there be no difference? They're not the same person!" Jiang Yuan asked, still dumbfounded, but he was already pretty sure who Zhong Litong was that the landlady was talking about.
What intrigued him now was that the proprietress was several hundred years old, so how old was Zhong Litong, whom the proprietress called her senior sister?
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you! You're wasting my time, give me back my food!" The proprietress arrogantly snatched back the food that Jiang Yuan hadn't even started eating, and even took the bowl and chopsticks from his hands.
"Damn, does it have to be this realistic!" Jiang Yuan was speechless. Are people so fickle these days? Just a moment ago they were treating him so warmly, and now, only a few minutes later, they won't even give him a meal.
"If I weren't realistic, I'd be eaten out of house and home by all you lucky folks!" The proprietress ate a couple of bites of food, then got up and walked out, saying irritably, "Goodbye!"
"Hey, at least introduce yourself!" Jiang Yuan had never seen such a strange old woman before.
