Chapter 52 You're gambling, aren't you?
"I will go with you." Zhan Beiyuan was a little curious about this matter.
"Whatever." Jiang Yunxi would not refuse. It would be good for him to broaden his horizons.
When the two arrived at the slums of East City, the street was very busy, almost the same as the main street. There were all kinds of stalls on both sides of the road, which were much cheaper than those on the main street.
When the people around saw Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan, they all looked at them. To them, these two people seemed to be from a different world.
They were obviously from wealthy families.
Because he had been there before, Jiang Yunxi went straight to the innermost part. When he arrived at the familiar place, he found that it seemed particularly deserted inside compared to the outside.
Most of the shops on both sides of the street were closed, with only a few stalls scattered around, and it was obvious that the nightlife had not yet begun.
"You came too early. You should come back at 11:00 PM." A stall owner not far away said kindly.
Jiang Yunxi walked over. The man was selling snacks, sweetened glutinous rice cakes. "Give me two skewers."
"Four coppers."
"I'll give you six and ask you something."
"Just ask." The stall owner took it with a smile and immediately handed two strings of sugar-coated rice cakes to Jiang Yunxi.
Jiang Yunxi took it and handed one to Zhan Beiyuan, "Do you want to eat it?"
"Yeah." Zhan Beiyuan didn't want to eat it at first, but when he saw her handing it to him, he reached out to take it.
Jiang Yunxi asked as he ate, "You often set up a stall here, so you must have seen a beggar with skin like tree bark, right?"
"This kid is pretty miserable. I don't know how his skin became like that. Everyone calls him a monster and ugly, and many people bully him." The stall owner knew who she was talking about as soon as she heard it.
"How long has he been here?"
"It's probably been quite a few years."
Jiang Yunxi raised her eyebrows slightly, "What does he usually eat?"
"Strangely enough, this kid is quite picky about his food. He doesn't eat ordinary food but pig's trotters. There's a noodle stall in the alley, and he often goes there to beg for food."
"The stall owner is very nice and often gives him pig's trotters to eat," said the stall owner.
"That old couple looks very kind." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
The stall owner sighed, "They are pitiful too. I heard that their sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren and granddaughters are all dead, and only these two old people are left in the family."
"Now that you put it that way, it's indeed pitiful." Jiang Yunxi said lightly. In fact, she had already seen it a long time ago, but she could only say it was karma.
"Yes, they have no descendants, but the old couple still set up a stall there every night. I don't know why they still have to suffer so much." The stall owner expressed his incomprehension.
Jiang Yunxi smiled faintly. She knew why. "By the way, are there any powerful Xuanmen masters here?"
"Yes, there is a very powerful fortune teller." said the stall owner excitedly.
"How powerful is it?" Jiang Yunxi looked very interested.
"I heard that she can talk to the dead. Usually there are a lot of people looking for her, but she only receives five customers a day. If you want to see her, you have to line up and make an appointment in advance." said the stall owner.
"Where is she?"
"Follow this road to the end, then turn right, then left. There's a sign there."
"Thank you." Jiang Yunxi said and left.
Zhan Beiyuan followed.
Following what the stall owner said, the two soon saw a small sign. At this time, there were many people queuing at the gate of the yard. They all looked quite wealthy judging by their clothes.
Jiang Yunxi walked over quickly and saw a sign posted at the door. It detailed the various services provided, all with clearly marked prices.
At this price, it’s no wonder that they only accept five people a day.
The money from these five customers, accumulated day by day, was enough for her to be rich for the rest of her life.
At the gate of the yard.
Someone was holding a notebook to register names and collect money.
Jiang Yunxi walked over and saw an old woman in her sixties sitting at a table in the yard, telling fortunes for people.
"What are you doing? Go line up at the back!" Suddenly, a middle-aged man said sternly with a stern face.
"I don't tell fortunes." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile, looking at the old woman, and soon realized that she was not the one who could control forbidden techniques.
"What are you doing here if you don't want to tell fortunes? Go away." The middle-aged man said in an unfriendly tone.
Jiang Yunxi smiled and said, "Remind the mother-in-law inside not to spend money that you shouldn't spend, otherwise you will suffer backlash sooner or later."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Zhan Beiyuan followed and asked, "Is there something wrong with that witch?"
"She has abilities, but not very powerful ones. She is not the one who controls the forbidden technique." Jiang Yunxi said meaningfully. This was why she came over to take a look.
"Where to now?"
"We should be able to find Wuming near the noodle stall last night."
"Why do you think you'll find it around there?"
"If I say that it was the old couple who cursed Wuming, would you believe it?" Jiang Yunxi looked at him with a smile in her eyes.
Zhan Beiyuan's face was filled with surprise. "They look like an ordinary couple. The stall owner mentioned earlier that their descendants are all dead. Why would they do something like that?"
"Revenge." Jiang Yunxi said two words.
"Why do you know so much after just one meeting?" Zhan Beiyuan was full of curiosity. Even the national master of Tenglong Country probably couldn't do what she did.
"I am from the Xuanmen sect."
"None of the Xuanmen people I know are this powerful."
"Now I see it." Jiang Yunxi had a lively smile on her face, and her smiling eyes were dazzling.
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
She is so shameless to brag like that!
Jiang Yunxi said, "I have a pair of special eyes that can see some of the causes and effects of some people without having to look at their faces, palms, or birth dates."
This is her innate ability.
It can be seen from the memory of the first life.
Face and palmistry are very common, and most people can learn them as long as they are willing to learn.
"Can you see anything from me?" Zhan Beiyuan asked.
"Your fate is very special, it's hard to tell." Jiang Yunxi said truthfully, otherwise she would have seen it long ago.
"Have you looked at your own?" Zhan Beiyuan asked deliberately.
Jiang Yunxi shook his head and made up an excuse, "Fortune tellers don't tell their own fortunes."
Zhan Beiyuan naturally didn't believe it. If she hadn't calculated for herself, how would she know that she was about to die? She didn't look sick.
Then why did he die?
When the two were almost at the noodle stall, they saw Wuming huddled in a corner. He was wearing a dirty white robe, and his body was twitching as if he was in extreme pain.
"Wuming." Jiang Yunxi squatted down beside him.
Wuming suddenly opened his eyes and was very surprised when he saw Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan. His lips trembled, "You, why are you here?"
"I'll take you back." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
"I, I won't go back, I won't go back..." Wuming's voice trembled, and his body curled up, as if he was afraid of something.
Jiang Yunxi said slowly: "I can save you. You were willing to go with me last night, and you were also betting on whether I could save you, right?"
