"Fortune-telling, fortune-telling of dead people!" The old man's expression remained unchanged and he spoke clearly every word.
My face darkened.
Since I opened a fortune-telling shop for so long, I have encountered all kinds of weird things. Some people even want to tell how big their penis will be in the future.
But... this is the first time I have encountered this person who tells fortunes for the dead.
Fortune-telling for living people only predicts the future and the past, but the dead are already dead and have no future to speak of. There is no way to tell fortunes at all!
I decisively refused, "No, fortune telling can only tell the lives of living people, there is no such thing as telling the lives of dead people."
The old man looked at me unwillingly, "Can't you give it a try... If it can be calculated..."
"No, I don't tell the fortunes of dead people." I repeated with a cold face, "Yin and Yang are separated, so I'm sorry and don't be too nostalgic."
The old man licked the blood on his lips and said, "Then... okay."
After the words fell, he stood up and walked towards the door without any intention of continuing to persuade.
I slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at his leaving figure, I always felt that he would never give up so willingly!
Someone who can say something like telling fortunes to dead people must have some obsession deep down in his heart, especially for an old man of his age, this obsession is even more difficult to eliminate!
Anyone who knows something about telling fortunes to a dead person would probably not tell fortunes to him if he saw it.
At this time, Sister Bai walked downstairs with a cold face, glanced at me, and then looked at the empty room, "I seemed to feel a corpse aura just now. Have you dealt with corpses?"
"What did you say?" I was stunned and said in disbelief, "I deal with corpses?"
Sister Bai nodded, "Well, it is indeed corpse aura. It looks like he has been dead for a long time."
Instantly, waves of chills rushed down my back, and my whole body was covered with goosebumps. I quickly ran out of the door, but in the bustling street, the old man was nowhere to be seen... ..
I hesitated for a few seconds and asked uncertainly, "Sister Bai, do you really feel the corpse energy?"
I can usually detect some yin, evil, and resentment, but only corpse qi... I rarely have contact with corpses, and I have no idea what corpse qi smells like.
Sister Bai nodded seriously, "It's corpse energy!"
I was completely stunned.
Corpse gas is generally only emitted by corpses, and it is impossible for it to be contaminated on clothes. Thinking about it this way...could the old man just now be a dead body?
But he clearly looks normal. Apart from being weird, he is no different from a normal old man!
I unconsciously recalled what he had just said about fortune-telling to the dead. I felt uneasy in my heart and felt a chill on my back!
This matter is like a demon in my mind. It pops up in my mind from time to time, making me feel agitated and completely losing my mind to keep the store normally.
I simply closed the door and went to the antique city to find Xia Rou and Li Yingying to look at their stalls.
At noon on weekdays, the flow of people in the center of the antique city gets bigger. The two of them rented a stall in the market specifically to sell craft ornaments.
The streets were crowded with people and the sounds of hawking were heard all the time, which made me even more irritable. After passing through a number of crowded stalls, I finally found Li Yingying.
But the strangest thing is that I actually saw the old man here!
He was wearing a gray and black linen clothes, his head was drooped, and he stretched out his rough palms to touch back and forth on a fish-shaped jade pendant, as if he was nostalgic for something.
I glanced at the fish-shaped jade pendant.
The jade pendant is milky white overall, with a writhing koi carving carved in the center, which symbolizes good fortune!
But this jade pendant is obviously fake, just an ordinary handicraft. I don’t know what the old man is thinking. Touching this jade pendant is like touching a treasure.
Li Yingying turned around and saw me, and shouted happily, "Brother Ming, why are you here!"
I nodded in response, "Come and take a look."
The old man in front of the stall seemed to hear my voice and turned to look at me. His face was very dull, as if he had never seen me before.
This made my curiosity even more intense. When I walked to him, I picked up the fish-shaped jade pendant and looked at it. I asked curiously, "Why do you keep staring at this jade pendant? What's so special about it?" Place?"
The old man stared closely at the jade pendant in my hand. He was silent for a while and then slowly shook his head. "If this jade pendant is real, it will kill many people..."
"Oh?" After hearing what he said, I picked up the jade pendant again to see what was wrong, but after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't see anything, so I simply put it down and asked what happened just now, "What did you just say to me?" I said fortune-telling for dead people, but whose fate was it specifically being told?"
"He's a friend." The old man didn't seem to expect that I would ask him that. His face was dull for a few seconds before he said, "He has been dead for a while."
I nodded, "It's really not okay to tell the fortune of a dead person, but...if you want, I can help you tell your own fortune."
What Sister Bai told me was a bit too bizarre. Corpse energy only appears on corpses.
But this is the second time I've seen this old man, and I still haven't found any signs related to the corpse. He even looks more like an ordinary person than an ordinary person, so... I want to find out what he is through fortune telling. people.
The old man's expression was indescribably calm, especially the gloomy look in his eyes, which looked a little too weird. He slowly shook his head and said, "No, I just want to settle it for my friends."
"That's... okay." Seeing the other party's appearance, I couldn't continue talking. After putting down the jade pendant, I walked towards Li Yingying behind the stall and rubbed her little head, "Today How is your business? Have you encountered any difficult customers?"
The Antique City is a mixed bag, especially beautiful and delicate girls like Li Yingying and Xia Rou. They are easily targeted by people with evil intentions, which is very dangerous!
Li Yingying held my hand and shook her head, "Business is not bad, I made a lot of money today, but... if I want to talk about a strange person, then it's the old man you were talking to just now."
"Huh? What's wrong?" I frowned.
Li Yingying shrugged, with an indifferent attitude, "It's nothing, it's just that he has been coming to our stall in the past few days, and every time he has to stand in front of the jade pendant and look at it for half an hour."
I was stunned, and subconsciously looked back towards where the old man was standing just now, but he had already disappeared.
Although there are many people in Antique City, there is probably no one who can be so elusive except Sister Bai.
My face instantly became serious.
This old man comes to see this fake jade pendant every day and asks about fortune telling for dead people. What exactly does he want to do?
