Chapter 120 Ji Cheng
West Yue is one of the "Lingnan Five Kingdoms" located in the east and south of Tianfu.
Unlike Chu, Yan and other large countries located in the Central Plains of Tianfu, Western Yue is a small country. Although the contemporary monarch is not very capable, he is good at flattery, paying tribute to the surrounding great powers year by year, and constantly changing the object of his country's attachment. In the long run, Western Vietnam has avoided the worries of war and won many years of peace.
In order to satisfy the insatiable greed of the surrounding countries, Western Vietnam has made a lot of miscellaneous taxes, although the people are still suffering. However, compared with those whose families were destroyed by the war, the people of West Vietnam seem to be extremely happy, so they have no complaints about the national government. Instead, they think that the monarch of the country is a generation of wise kings.
When the king heard that the people's evaluation of him was so high, he was so proud that he simply changed the name of the calendar to "Holy King". Since the promulgation of the calendar, it has been the winter of 11 years for the Holy King of Western Vietnam.
Because it is located in the south, the winter in Western Vietnam is not very cold. In addition to the occasional light snow in the thirteen counties near the north, the ten counties in the south are very cool.
Although West Vietnam has thirteen counties, there are only a few cities that can really be compared with the capitals of those major countries. One of them is naturally the "Guanqi City", the capital of the middle country.
Guanqi City is a city with abundant water. The river in the city intersects and stretches like a cobweb. Bridges and archways made of stone or wood span the river, and countless boats come and go.
On this day, Lin Xiao and Xie Qinghou stepped into the gate of Guanqi City.
Two days ago, Xie Qinghou had already sensed Zhang Jixian's whereabouts near Guanqi City with Zhang Jixian's command card in his hand. However, when the two arrived in Guanqi City, the token became silent and could no longer feel Zhang Jixian's breath.
Xie Qinghou judged that Zhang Jixian should be hiding in a hidden place near Guanqi City. And that place must be arranged with a magic array with the breath of the monks, otherwise this command card will not be silent.
When they came to this city full of water vapor, Lin Xiao and Xie Qinghou felt wet all over, and it was difficult to find Zhang Jixian's whereabouts for a while. So the two wanted to find a place to settle in Guanqi City before making plans.
While the two were walking on the wide street and looking for an inn to stay, Xie Qinghou suddenly stopped.
Lin Xiao, who followed Xie Qinghou, almost bumped into Xie Qinghou, stopped quickly, and then asked, "What's wrong?"
Xie Qinghou did not answer immediately, but pointed to a young man in sackcloth sitting in an inconspicuous corner near the city wall who was setting up a fortune-telling stall.
Lin Xiao looked carefully at the young man in sackcloth and saw that he was loose, very young, dressed in sackcloth and shoes, sitting behind a square table, closing his eyes to refresh himself.
And beside the young man in sackcloth, there stood a white flag, with four big characters written on the flag - one word!
"A word for life! Hey, this guy has such a big tone, but I don't think there are any customers around him. I guess those magic sticks are first-class goods, right? Lin Xiao shrugged his shoulders and didn't know why Xie Qinghou would pay special attention to this street fortune teller.
However, to Lin Xiao's surprise, Xie Qinghou, who had always been indifferent to anything, shook his head rarely and then walked towards the young man in sackcloth.
Isn't the monk fighting for his life? Why do you believe this? Lin Xiao was a little strange, but he still followed Xie Qinghou.
The two walked to the young man in sackcloth and stood there. The young man in sackcloth realized that someone was approaching, so he opened his eyes.
It's okay that the young man didn't open his eyes. Lin Xiao was shocked when he opened his eyes. He saw that the young man's pupils were pale, and there was no focus at all - the young man in sackcloth was blind.
"Do the two guests want to measure good or bad luck?" The young man in sack smiled and said politely.
Unexpectedly, Xie Qinghou directly said something that surprised Lin Xiao and the young man in sackcloth, "Are you a disciple of the 'Tianji Palace' in Liulijing?"
Lin Xiao was surprised, and the young man's face suddenly became very unnatural, but he quickly calmed down and regained his composure. "I didn't expect that when I was born and practiced, I could be recognized by others. Do you dare to ask which sect you belong to?"
"Kunlun Lingxu Palace, Xie Qinghou." Xie Qinghou said lightly.
Xie Qinghou just said his name casually, but these three words seemed to have a special magic, which made the young man in sackcloth change his face again and again. Obviously, he has been familiar with Xie Qinghou's name for a long time.
After a long time, the young man spit out two words from his mouth, "I have been looking forward to you for a long time."
Xie Qinghou nodded and then asked, "Which family are you from?"
When the young man saw that his identity had been exposed and there was no need to continue to hide it, he said the truth: "My surname is Ji, my name is Cheng."
Unexpectedly, Xie Qinghou became silent at this time. He meditated for a long time before slowly saying, "I don't know what level you have reached?"
This time, the young man could no longer calm down. He jumped up directly and asked in surprise, "Do you know that?"
But then the young man seemed to figure out something, sat down again and sighed, "But 'Tianji San Calculation' is not a big secret in our Tianji Palace. It's not surprising that he can know as Brother Xie..."
Then, the young man honestly replied, "There are three calculations, which are divided into 'man calculation', 'earth calculation' and 'heaven calculation'. I just know a little about 'earth calculation'."
When Xie Qinghou heard the words, there seemed to be a trace of disappointment on his face, but it soon returned to normal. "Three calculations of heaven and earth can be regarded as good or bad as the monks under Jindan, and heaven can change their lives. I'm already a Jindan cultivation, but you are really only involved in the method of calculating the land for the first time, but I can't count it.
Hearing that Xie Qinghou was already a Jindan monk, Ji Cheng's expression became humble. He originally wanted to say a few polite words, but unexpectedly Xie Qinghou suddenly turned his head and said to Lin Xiao, "Brother Lin. The disciples of Tianji Palace have always rarely traveled, but now they have finally met one. Why don't you calculate your destiny?
Since Xie Qinghou respected that Tianji Palace so much, Lin Xiao naturally couldn't refuse, so he came forward and smiled at Ji Cheng, "In this way, the Lao Ji brothers will predict the future good or bad luck for me!"
Ji Yuanlai was unwilling to use land to calculate magic power for Lin Xiaodong, but Xie Qinghou looked aside and was deterred by Xie Qinghou's reputation among the young generation in the fairyland. Ji Cheng had to sell it to Xie Qinghou and took out a gossip life plate from the precious and important place in his arms. .
Ji Cheng first pinched a formula, urged the life plate magic weapon in his hand, and then applied several magic formulas to the life plate one after another according to a certain mysterious trajectory. The life plate suddenly glowed and emitted a white light.
At this time, Ji Cheng's face was already flushed because he wanted to maintain the operation of the life disk, and there were dense sweat beads on his forehead. It was obvious that the method of calculating was still a very reluctant thing for Ji Cheng today.
Ji Chengjian successfully stimulated her fate and was overjoyed.
You know, although his cultivation in fortune-telling has barely reached the threshold of earth calculation, the number of successful calculations is still very small, and sometimes it is common that he can't use the method of earth calculation once and a half a month.
Because he felt that his experience was not enough and the method of earth calculation still needed to be improved, Ji Chengcai resolutely asked his master for him to go deep into the world to experience, so that he could go further in his mental perception.
It was hard to start a calculation, but unexpectedly it was a fortune-telling for an unknown guy. Although Ji Cheng felt sorry in his heart, he still handed the fate plate to Lin Xiao and said, "Please drop a drop of blood on the fate plate."
Lin Xiao nodded, bit his index finger, and dripped a drop of blood with a trace of golden blood on his life plate.
Seeing Lin Xiao's unique blood, Xie Qinghou couldn't help but be stunned and took a look at Lin Xiao, thinking that his younger brother's body had been cultivated to the point where even his blood began to change. It seemed that he had really underestimated him before.
Ji Cheng naturally couldn't see the color of Lin Xiao's blood. After sensing that Lin Xiao dripping blood into the life plate, he began to run the life plate with all his strength and began to calculate Lin Xiao's fate through a set of mysterious trajectories.
A quarter of an hour passed, Ji Cheng's forehead was sweating profusely, but there was no result.
Two quarters of an hour later, Ji Cheng began to feel weak all over, and his whole body was about to fall, but there was still no result.
Three quarters of an hour later, Ji Cheng suddenly shouted and spewed out a mouthful of blood. His whole face suddenly collapsed on the chair and looked at Lin Xiao in a daze for a long time.
Xie Qinghou frowned, "What's wrong?"
Lin Xiao also looked at Ji Cheng with a puzzled face, thinking that this guy was just telling people's fortune-telling. It's okay if he couldn't figure it out. He made it like this. This is no longer fortune-telling. It's terrible!
However, Lin Xiao suddenly recalled that when he used the divination function in the Qingming mirror, he seemed to have encountered this situation. Does the magic weapon in Ji Cheng's hand also have the same function and side effects as the Qingming mirror?
When Lin Xiao was meditating, Ji Cheng finally recovered at this time. He pointed to Lin Xiao and asked Xie Qinghou, "Brother Xie, is your brother also a monk above Jindan Realm?"
Xie Qinghou shook his head when he heard the words, "He hasn't even condensed yet. How can he be a Jindan monk?"
Ji's face became more ugly when he heard the words. He doubted several times whether he had miscalculated, but he felt that it was unlikely. So he held the table in front of him with both hands, reluctantly stood up, and said with a wry smile, "I'm really sorry. I can't figure out his life."
"Can't you figure it out?" This time, Xie Qinghou finally changed his face, "I can't even calculate his fate. What's the reason for this?"
Lin Xiao was also heartfelt when he heard the words, and he quickly looked at Ji Cheng.
Under the gaze of the two, Ji Cheng shook his head with a bitter smile, "This is the first time I have encountered this situation since I practiced the divination method of Tianji Palace, but I once heard my master say that there are three kinds of people in the world who can't calculate their fate."
"Which three kinds of people?" Lin Xiao asked in a low voice. Do you think you are among these three kinds of people?
Ji Cheng replied: "The first kind of person is a monk with excellent cultivation. The monk above Jindan is already a different number of the five elements of reincarnation, and the general algorithm can't calculate the fate of this kind of person at all. The second kind of people are people of God's punishment. As soon as they are born, they will not be in reincarnation. Most of them will be punished by heaven. Most of them will be prematurely. Some people who are lucky enough to survive are either heroes or demon kings. As for the third category of people, it is a more special existence. This kind of person is a person who has been changed by the great power Yi Tian. Their fate was artificially distorted, and from then on, they were detached from reincarnation and could no longer calculate their development trajectory.
