The imperial capital is particularly refreshing after a heavy rain. There are little drops of water hanging on the willow trees on the roadside, shining brightly in the morning light. A breeze blew by, swaying, and the water drops on the leaves immediately danced with the wind, causing pedestrians passing by to scream, occasionally accompanied by a few cheerful birdsong.
A sudden noise disturbed the tranquility under the morning breeze. Si Wulu looked around and saw a girl wearing a burgundy uniform riding a white horse on the street, galloping towards her at extremely fast speeds.
Immediately, everyone was so frightened that they all ducked and screamed. For a time, the whole street was in chaos.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way quickly!" A clear and proud voice came from the horseback.
Seeing this, Si Wulu quickly pulled Xiao Yuer beside him to the roadside. Suddenly, as he turned around, a little girl came into view. It was a beautiful little girl about seven or eight years old who looked like a porcelain doll. At this time, she was standing blankly in the middle of the street, at a loss.
Suddenly seeing someone in front of her, the girl in uniform hurriedly reined in the horse and leaned back as if to stop the horse. Suddenly, the horse stopped moving forward, and at the same time, its front legs rose into the air and let out a neighing sound.
Unfortunately, because the speed was too fast before, the horse's hooves still stepped forward uncontrollably due to inertia.
Seeing that the little girl was about to die under the horse's hooves, Si Wulu no longer held back, and at a speed that exceeded that of ordinary people, he quickly flew forward and hugged the little girl, and then rolled and crawled to the side of the road.
The girl in military uniform on horseback glanced at Si Wulu. Then, without saying a word, he rode away on horseback.
In this imperial capital where powerful people are everywhere and there are countless capable people, although he sympathizes with the little girl, in the face of life and dignity, Si Wulu chooses to remain silent and just comforts the little girl in a low voice.
"It's so rude to blind such a beautiful girl and not even say sorry when you hit someone."
"Alas! People's hearts are not as old as they used to be, and the world is getting worse."
"What an unreasonable and uneducated girl."
After the girl in military uniform disappeared completely, passers-by began to criticize her. Obviously, everyone in the big city is a human spirit, and the era of being passionate has long passed.
"Si Wu Lu, let's take her home. Little sister, where do you live? My sister will take you home." Finally, Xiao Yu'er said something more reliable.
Under the guidance of the little girl, the two walked through several alleys in twists and turns. After walking for a while, they arrived in front of the Imperial Martial Arts Temple. Si Wulu and Xiao Yu'er looked at each other. Could it be that this little girl usually lives in the Martial Arts Temple?
Before Si Wulu and Xiao Yu'er could react, the little girl walked straight to a stall in front of the temple.
I saw a white-haired old man sitting in the stall. At first glance, he looked a bit fairy-like. At this time, the white-haired old man was sitting upright and drawing complicated talismans on the paper, looking like a virtuous man. There is a bamboo pole standing next to the stall, and a piece of white cloth is hung on the bamboo pole, with four large black characters written on it with a black brush: Divine Plan.
But at this time, Si Wulu's attention was entirely focused on the white-haired old man at the stall, with a hint of anger in his eyes. This white-haired old man was actually the old liar who defrauded Si Wulu of 4 silver coins to buy a peerless skill.
Although 4 silver coins was nothing to Si Wu Lu who had robbed a big thief, being defrauded of money was always very affecting his mood.
Sensing someone coming to the booth, the old liar stopped the cinnabar pen in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Two guests, do you want to ask about marriage or future?"
Before Si Wulu and Xiao Yuer could answer, the old liar suddenly frowned, looked Si Wulu up and down, and then said: "Little brother, I see that your hall is dark, dark clouds are covering the sky, and you are plagued with bad luck. Recently, There will be a bloody disaster."
"Grandpa!" the little girl shouted with a red face.
"My dear, go aside and play. Grandpa is busy." After finishing speaking, the old liar looked at Si Wulu seriously.
It turned out that the old liar was older. Si Wulu no longer planned to pursue this matter, but after hearing that the old liar was still talking nonsense, Si Wulu could no longer hold back his anger and said with a playful expression: "Old man, you claim to be a scheming strategist, so you have a good plan when you go out today. Are you going to suffer physical pain?"
This sentence immediately stunned the old liar. After a while, the old liar asked cautiously: "Little brother, have we met before?"
"I am the only one in heaven and earth who has the highest authority." Si Wulu said through gritted teeth.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yu'er was already laughing regardless of his appearance. But seeing that the old liar didn't blush, he said without a beat: "Little brother, you recognized the wrong person. I don't know what kind of skills in heaven and earth."
"Big brother." Huahua timidly pulled at the corner of Si Wu Lu's clothes.
"Si Wu Lu, forget it." Xiao Yu'er also advised from the side.
When Si Wulu saw this, he stopped pursuing it.
"Big brother is a good person." Then Huahua told the old liar everything that had just happened. After hearing that his granddaughter was almost trampled by a horse, the old liar stepped forward to check Huahua in a panic. After finding nothing, he returned to his calm and composed appearance like a Taoist master in the blink of an eye, and turned Si Wulu and the little girl beside him. Yu'er immediately calmed down.
"Little brother, thank you for your generous help." It was rare for the old liar to say thank you.
When Si Wulu was thinking about saying you're welcome, he saw the old liar suddenly looked serious and said seriously: "Little brother, I see that your destiny is exactly the legendary destiny of Luohu. This destiny The most taboo thing about killing is..."
Halfway through his words, the old liar noticed that Si Wulu was looking at him with suspicion and disbelief in his eyes. Thinking that he probably had no image in this young man's heart, he couldn't continue talking.
Then, the old liar sighed and walked back to the stall and sat down.
"Huahua, sister and eldest brother are gone. Stop running around and stay with grandpa." After saying goodbye to the little girl, Xiao Yu'er took Si Wulu away.
The two of them had just taken a few steps when they heard the old liar calling them from behind. Then, the old liar directly stuffed a ceramic statue of the God of War into Si Wulu's arms and whispered: "When you get home, smash this statue of the God of War to pieces. There is a universe inside. Remember not to let anyone see it."
Si Wulu was thinking about what to say to refuse, but he saw that the old liar had an unusually serious look on his face, and he couldn't say the words for a moment. Finally, Si Wulu asked weakly: "Does the statue of the God of War cost money? "
This time, the old liar replied very generously: "I give it to you for free this time as a reward for saving Huahua."
After hearing what the old liar said, Si Wulu accepted it with confidence.
The old liar watched the two people walking away until they disappeared. At this time, he stroked his white beard with a relaxed face: This statue that had been placed in Tianjimen for thousands of years was finally sent out, to this unique person with the Luohu destiny. It doesn’t count as living up to Master’s dying trust.
Not long after Si Wulu and Xiao Yu'er left, a pair of feet wearing the most common military shoes of the Imperial Military Department appeared in front of the old liar's stall.
"It's you." The old liar was shocked.
"It's me. If you think about it carefully, you and I haven't seen each other for more than seventy years." The person said in a low voice.
"Is it convenient for us to chat?" The visitor continued. Although he was asking, his tone was undeniably domineering. Obviously, the person who came here was very distinguished, and he was already accustomed to giving orders on weekdays.
The old liar was silent for a while and nodded. Then, pack up the stall and end the business for the day.
"Have you lived here all these years?" The man held a tea cup and looked at this simple and dilapidated house, asking in disbelief.
"My family is poor and cannot afford expensive tea and fine wine. We can only provide boiled water, so you can make do with it." Although he said this, the old liar did not show any shame.
"When I was in the army, let alone water, I drank horse urine several times in order to survive." The man blew on the teacup, took a slow sip, and said nonchalantly.
"Are you still blaming me for not protecting Suanxue back then?" The man suddenly looked at the old liar and asked.
"It's all over. Can Suanxue come back?"
"As the only living disciple of the Tianji Sect, and the only inheritor of the secret art of stargazing and qi-gazing, you have lived with peace of mind over the years." The man seemed to be feeling something and couldn't help but sigh.
"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. It is already difficult for me to use my ability alone, and it is too far to help the world. To revitalize the Great Wilderness Country, we still need to rely on capable people like you." The old liar retorted with peace of mind.
"You are making excuses. If the art of stargazing and qi reading is useless, why would Emperor Martial Ancestor call it the number one secret art of the Wilderness Kingdom thousands of years ago." When mentioning Martial Ancestor, the man's tone also had a rare tone of respect.
"If this stargazing technique is really useful, why couldn't we calculate the death of Marshal Zhao Qingyang three hundred years ago, why couldn't we calculate the changes in Qinghua Terrace, and why couldn't we calculate the crisis in the Great Wilderness Country." The old liar's eyes were filled with sadness.
Obviously, the huge change three hundred years ago caused the Great Wilderness Kingdom to fall into the abyss, and also caused the Tianji Sect, which was once famous all over the world, to completely withdraw from the center of the political stage of the Great Wilderness Kingdom and disappear from the scene.
"There is nothing in the world that can be predicted 100%. If it is omnipotent, it is not a human being, but a god."
"In the past, you predicted that I would be destined to be a lone star in the sky. I would be destined to have no children. All the people around me would be killed by misfortunes, and I would end up alone all my life. Now it seems that everything has come true." The man smiled bitterly. ,road.
The old liar closed his eyes slightly and was silent for a moment. He shook his head and said, "I won't hide it from you now. What I said back then was all nonsense that I made to deceive you. I have always been annoyed by those who look at the situation since I was a child. At that time, I just pretended to study the theory of numerology seriously just to spend more time with Suan Xue. I didn’t understand this theory of numerology at all. In the past, I liked Suan Xue, but Suan Xue was only interested in it. You simply regard me as your senior brother as your elder brother. In addition, you have achieved great success at a young age and have become famous all over the world at a young age. I said it deliberately because I was angry."
After saying what the old liar said, the man was stunned. After a long time, he pointed at the old liar and laughed loudly: "Suan Shi, as expected of you, you are still so stingy and so careless."
After a while, after the man stopped laughing, the old liar said seriously: "Speaking of destiny numbers, today, I saw a legendary Luohu destiny number in front of the Wu Temple. people."
"Luo Hou, the legendary demon king who lives in hell, an evil god full of ominousness." The man's face changed and he said seriously.
The old liar ignored him and said to himself: "It is rumored that people with Rahu's destiny are destined to spend their lives in killing, their lives will be burned, and their blood will flow like rivers. Ancient books record that people with such a destiny, They are all insidious, cunning, demonic, cruel and cold-blooded people, but it just so happens that such a person has great luck. Maybe, just maybe, he is the person you have been waiting for."
"You mean?" The man's eyes lit up and he murmured.
"People from ZTE Great Wilderness Country." The old liar replied in a low voice.
"Where is he? I want to see him." After hearing this, the man asked urgently, without any trace of the calmness he had at the beginning.
The old liar shook his head and said: "Since ancient times, the king has not seen the king. Otherwise, he will surely die."
The man sighed softly, and then his expression returned to calm and majestic.
"This is the best news I've heard in these years." The man put down the tea cup with a rare smile on his face.
"Such a person is too scheming, too murderous, and too lucky. These three things all violate the will of heaven. Therefore, disasters will definitely be retributive on those close to him." The old liar next to him suddenly sighed. road.
Then, the old liar walked around the man, muttering something in his mouth, suddenly vomiting blood, and then said: "You should avoid going north recently, especially if there is no snow, otherwise there will be a disaster."
"It's a pity that I really have to go to the north," the man smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "If we are really going to be robbed, even if I risk my life, I will fight for the future king of our Great Wilderness Kingdom. Years of peace and quiet.”
Then, the man gently picked up Huahua and said softly: "Grandpa came in a hurry this time. If there is a next time, grandpa will buy a lot of gifts for Huahua."
After saying that, the man gently put down Huahua and walked away.
"Grandpa, who is that young grandpa?" Huahua asked curiously, looking at the retreating figure.
The old liar was silent for a long time, and after a while, he replied: "He is the only powerful person in the Great Wilderness Kingdom, the general of the military, Lin Xiao."
But the old liar couldn't say the word "Master" no matter what.
