Li Xiuyuan is bold, and he is not afraid of being accompanied by an equally courageous fortune teller.

The five-mile journey may or may not be far, it depends on the intention of the person traveling on the road.

By the time the two of them led the horses into Niujiao Town, the bustling long street had already calmed down. Passers-by went home, and even bandits and killers hid.

After all, there is only one intersection, so they only need to send people to guard the intersection.

Night fell quietly, and the wild dogs wandering on the streets also hid.

Holding the horse, Li Xiuyuan checked into the most remote inn in Niujiao Town where he had stayed before.

In his opinion, such a secluded inn might allow him to stay quietly for a night without being disturbed by bandits or killers.

When the guys saw the business coming to their door, they naturally liked it very much. While helping the two of them hold the horses, they took Li Xiuyuan into the yard behind.

The courtyard is still very clean, even the peach trees from back then are still there.

Li Xiuyuan and his waiter ordered a few dishes they had eaten before, and then took the fortune teller and sat down in the living room in the backyard.

After thinking for a while, he said: "I stayed in this inn back then, and it feels nostalgic to come here again."

The fortune teller nodded. He believed that the young man in front of him was definitely not the grade he saw. Otherwise, if he heard that a killer was concerned about him, he would just twist and run away.

The fortune teller didn't stop either. He lit a fire and boiled water while chatting with Li Xiuyuan.

Li Xiuyuan stared at the pair of white hands in front of him, a pair of female hands growing on a man's body,

Let him believe that maybe this is the only way to be a fortune teller, right? Otherwise, how can a pair of fat hands calculate the good and bad fortune for people?

The peach blossoms in the yard have faded, and there are a lot of peaches. It's a pity that he will leave here tomorrow.

The fortune teller smiled and said: "In winter, the bandits in Niujiao Town and the killers in Snow White City all learned that there was a big deal in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and wanted to hunt down a blind young man."

Li Xiuyuan didn't know that the fortune teller in front of him was the guy who wanted Wang Qiang's life in the first place.

The fortune teller in front of him didn't even know that the young man in front of him was much more terrifying than Wang Qiang at that time.

However, the divine fortune teller did not despise Li Xiuyuan because he was blind. He knew very well how capable the young man who dared to be chased by the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain was.

The most important thing is that since the death of old man Mihaoshi, he has sworn not to be a killer again.

He believes that he can make money with his own skills. As a result, he had great luck today. He soon met Li Xiuyuan and earned the money he wanted to earn.

He did not rush to tell everything, but followed the boy to Niujiao Town. He wanted to see how the boy killed the bandits in the town and made the killers afraid.

In his opinion, the old man Sanhao lost his life because he did not listen to his advice, and he took advantage of it.

Now, he no longer has to be a killer and can live a good life.

It wasn't until he stopped thinking about being a killer that he realized that he could still see everything in this world extremely clearly.

Being able to discern many good and bad fortunes, he discovered for the first time that he could be comfortable being a fortune teller.

After hearing what the fortune teller said, Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly: "Yes, I am the blind man someone in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain is looking for. How about you give it a try too?"

Shaking his head, the fortune teller found that for the first time he couldn't figure out the young man in front of him. He could neither see clearly the young man's cultivation nor whether he could overcome the difficulties in front of him.

So he smiled: "I am a fortune teller, not a bandit or a killer."

The pressure that Li Xiuyuan put on him was even more terrifying than that of his neighbor Sanhao. This was his intuition as a fortune teller.

In the past, he would have definitely killed the boy in front of him and walked away, just like drinking a glass of wine.

It was only when I gave up the thought of being a killer that I realized that I was becoming less and less sure. This kind of intuition never appeared when I was a killer before.

Otherwise, he would not have been stupid enough to chase Wang Qiang.

Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and said, "You finally found the prey, but you gave it to others. Do you feel unwilling to do so?"

The fortune teller poured him a cup of hot tea and said with a smile: "If I can't keep my heart, I'm afraid I will die in that wilderness like my companions."

Holding a cup of hot tea, Li Xiuyuan waved his hand to disperse the tense atmosphere in front of him.

He smiled and said, "That's right. At your level of cultivation, if you don't cultivate your state of mind, I'm afraid it will become more and more troublesome in the future. I'm afraid you will really get stuck at the last threshold."

When the fortune teller heard this, he almost poured out the hot tea in his hand.

Just like what Li Xiuyuan said, the piece of fat in front of him was obviously bitten in his mouth. According to his previous temperament, he would not let go until he died.

But for now, I can only pretend not to see it.

Unexpectedly, the blind young man saw through his cultivation at a glance.

He was so anxious that he blurted out: "Am I the fortune teller, or you? How can you see my cultivation when you are blind?"

In Li Xiuyuan's eyes, the fortune teller in front of him was a powerful killer, but he didn't care.

Seeing the anxious look on the divine fortune teller, Li Xiuyuan smiled: "Don't you know how to tell fortunes? You can do the math. How do I know your cultivation level?"

Seeing the young man's calm appearance, the fortune teller was immediately discouraged.

The expression on his face changed, and he decided to take a gamble, the last gamble in his life. Although, the probability of him winning may be very low.

Taking a deep breath, the fortune teller laughed.

"My home is in Baixue City. I could go home after earning the young master's money. However, I want to follow you to Loulan for a walk. You won't dislike me, right?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled: "No."

...

The road was long, and the journey alone was lonely and boring. Besides, Li Xiuyuan no longer had any burdens.

It doesn't matter to him even if there is an occasional thunderstorm around him. It will take a lot of time to get to Loulan, so it would be nice to have a fortune teller as a companion.

The waiter brought the food, Li Xiuyuan invited the fortune teller to have a few drinks, and he poured himself a glass of wine.

Now that he has entered Niujiao Town, he cannot drink more.

In the eyes of the fortune teller, the wine the young man gave him was like a magical elixir. Swallowing it in one gulp would also be of great help to his cultivation.

Thanks to his strong physique, an ordinary person would probably be drunk to death.

Think about it, old man Sanhao didn't give up even though he failed once. He had to chase that guy all the way to Niujiao Town, but he ended up playing himself to death.

If I were still like him, I'm afraid that the two courtyards would only make others easier.

After drinking a glass of spiritual wine and eating a few pieces of meat, the fortune teller smiled bitterly and said: "Since you are not afraid of these guys, why give me spiritual stones? Do you have a lot of money?"

He wouldn't have said this originally.

Somehow, the young man actually invited him to stay at the inn and treated him to meat and wine, so he couldn't help but chatter.

Li Xiuyuan smiled: "Before coming here, I encountered countless assassinations, and even the elders of Yinchuan City came to trouble me."

"If I were afraid of death, I would not come to Niujiao Town alone, let alone go to Snow White City or Loulan."

In his opinion, no matter how powerful the killer is, he will not be stronger than Ouyang Chongming.

The fortune teller shook his head and said with a smile: "Your reputation has spread thousands of miles, and countless killers have smelled the smell of blood. Will this journey be safe?"

In the eyes of the fortune teller, he is just a fortune teller.

Since he had made up his mind not to be a killer, he naturally would not block the upcoming killers and bandits for the young man in front of him.

If the young man is really defeated, he can only wait for death.

What he has decided will not change again. He can eat meat and drink with the young man, but he does not want to get involved in the grievances of the world again, so Li Xiuyuan can't expect to get his help.

Li Xiuyuan sighed quietly and said with a wry smile: "People are afraid of being famous, but pigs are afraid of being strong. There's nothing I can do about it, right?"

The fortune teller nodded and said with a smile: "No matter what, strength is the most important guarantee for walking in the world."

After thinking about it carefully, the fortune teller still wasn't optimistic that Li Xiuyuan could defeat the killers and bandits in Niujiao Town.

However, now that he has become a spectator, he can no longer do anything.

Li Xiuyuan thought differently. There was a stormy sea in front of him. Even if he had to fight here tomorrow, it would be something he would have to face tomorrow.

At the moment, he has no worries about his debts, and he has made it clear to Wu Suyun and the Seventh Elder of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

If someone comes to trouble him again, it will only be the plum garden in Baixue City that contributes. He will not refuse the money that comes to his door.

After drinking a few glasses of spiritual wine, Shen Suanzi felt that his strength was much stronger, but something else suddenly occurred to his mind.

The fact that the young man in front of him has such spiritual wine means a lot of problems. I am afraid that the bandits and killers in Niujiao Town are really here to kill the young man.

"Bandits are human beings too, sir. You don't need to be afraid of them."

The fortune teller murmured: "If I hadn't sworn not to get involved in the world, I would have slapped guys like this to death."

Li Xiuyuan showed a faint smile and looked towards the night sky outside the living room.

When I came to Niujiao Town with Monk Buli, I had a fight with Yun Ziyi's senior sister in the living room. This time I didn't see that woman in Meishan.

Could it be that he went down the mountain to get married?

Frowning slightly, he scanned the Niujiao Town with his consciousness and found that there was not even a dog on the street, let alone a pedestrian.

He sighed and said calmly: "What I'm afraid of is not bandits and killers. What I'm afraid of is trouble."

The fortune teller didn't understand for a moment and smiled slightly: "Really? If you slap them to death, those troubles will no longer be troubles?"

But Li Xiuyuan didn't think so. He could take the road in two days, but because of these bandits and killers, it might take him three days or even more.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed in Niujiao Town.

When he came back here again, it seemed that nothing had changed. It was still the same as before. The killers still liked to chase blood, and the bandits still wouldn't let go of the windfall that passed by.

There was deathly silence on the street, and there were countless pairs of eyes staring at the empty street in the dark night.

Whenever there is any disturbance, someone will immediately rush out from the darkness.

After being stunned for a long time, Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "It's still troublesome."

The divine fortune teller glanced at him, took another sip of wine, and then said: "When I just entered the inn, I made some calculations silently. I'm afraid that there will be a river of blood here tomorrow."

Li Xiuyuan suddenly smiled when he heard this and asked: "Then have you calculated whether the blood is the bandits, the killers of Yinchuan City, or the blood flowing from my body?"

The fortune teller looked at the wine in the glass silently and said nothing.

Li Xiuyuan sighed quietly and said, "Even if I leave overnight, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of Niujiao Town. Tell me, if they come to kill me, what can I do?"

The fortune teller was startled by what he said. After thinking about it, he replied, "I don't know either."

Having said that, he was also thinking about it silently in his mind.

If he were a young man, if there were a group of bandits and a group of killers surrounding him who wanted to kill him, he would have killed them with one sword without even thinking.

Li Xiuyuan felt his emotions silently and smiled: "Me too."
