Chapter 113 How about a fortune telling, young man (I)

Almost all the powerful people in the venue were bidding. Who would have thought that such a heated bidding scene would appear in an unpopular category.

They were bidding almost frantically, just to snatch the pure and holy woman who was commanding the beasts on the field.

"One hundred thousand gold!"

A pot-bellied man, whose eyes turned red and whose breathing was heavy due to the atmosphere, stretched out his arms and shouted.

This passionate and fierce shout startled all the people who were bidding, and they were also shocked by his wealth and power.

One hundred thousand gold! This is something that not everyone can afford.

Who is this person?

They looked at him with curiosity and jealousy, and saw that the man was about thirty years old, with broad shoulders and a big waist. He was wearing a fragrant silk robe, a beaded hat, and a row of valuable ornaments around his waist.

My goodness, other people don’t show off their wealth, but he is just the opposite. He exudes the distinct temperament of a nouveau riche.

It's just that the face was too unfamiliar, not the wealthy businessman they were familiar with.

Seeing that no one could compete with him anymore, the man patted his belly and laughed heartily, "Haha, they are mine! These beasts and beauties are mine!"

When Wu Yi heard the word "one hundred thousand gold", she sat down. The situation was out of control and she was afraid that she would miss out on the birthday gift she had always dreamed of.

She didn't understand why the Dark Emperor was unwilling to bid for her now that he was here? He clearly knew that she...

Wu Yi clenched her fists tightly, feeling angry and resentful. She wanted to question but felt that she would lose face. In this game between a man and a woman, she was already worried about gains and losses, and she relied on her pride and self-esteem to hold on and refuse to admit defeat.

Could it be that he is... interested in that pretentious woman on the field?

When Qi Shangyue heard the 100,000 gold, his heart was filled with excitement. You know, all the profits from all the games tonight combined are not as much as this one.

As soon as the gong sounded, Qi Shangyue spoke up and took control of the whole situation: "If no one bids the 100,000 gold, then..."

"Wait a minute."

The sound was like a trickle of water, the sound of soft willows and misty rain. It was not coming from the sidelines, but from within the court.

After being interrupted, Qi Shangyue looked at "Wen Xue" in the direction of the voice, not knowing what was going on.

Logically speaking, someone of her status had no right to interrupt, but she was too special, so everyone stopped and waited for her to speak.

"I'll pay two hundred thousand gold..."

The woman slowly sat on the python's huge body, and it automatically coiled up for her to sit on. "What will be the fate of the people who came to buy the gold and silver shop?"

Everyone looked at her in a daze, not knowing whether they were captivated by her casual attitude at the moment, or confused by the weirdness implied in her words.

There was an uproar in the lobby. They thought that the Gold and Silver Shop was up to something new. They did not look frightened but waited for her next words with great interest.

"What is Miss Wen up to now?"

"You asked for 200,000 gold just by asking for it. Do you really have it?"

"How dare a mere salesperson speak like this? I think the claim of this gold and silver shop that it is the best at training is just a gimmick."

And no matter what the people in the Gold and Silver Building said, it could not change the woman's expression. She lowered her eyes and smiled faintly. The night wind was light, and the ice strings were broken.

"Tonight, the sky is in the seventh sign of the Sun, and the Tai Sui restrains the Sun's master and stem. The five elements are in water, and it is very easy to suffer a disaster. If you are unwilling to give up money to avoid disaster, your life may be in danger."

The first part of what she said was incomprehensible, but the second part was easy to understand.

She was cursing that they would die tonight.

If you were to ask what these businessmen in power fear the most, wouldn’t it be poverty or death?

Seeing that she was becoming more and more untactful and her words were becoming more and more absurd and excessive, their faces suddenly fell cold and they no longer had the enthusiasm and admiration they had before.

"Master Qi, what's going on? Your Gold and Silver House is no longer doing business, but is now engaged in murder and robbery?"

"That's right, what does she mean by that? What does it mean to sacrifice money to avoid disaster, or else your life will be in danger? Do you think the people in your gold and silver building dare to kill people?"

Qi Shangyue was unable to react to the sudden change for a while, especially when he thought that "Wen Xue" was not only a teachable child, but could also bring greater fame to the Gold and Silver House, but she suddenly changed her attitude and caused such a scene.

He immediately stepped forward to apologize to the guests in the building: "No, no, that's not the case..."

He turned around again and said to "Wen Xue" in a stern voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and get off!"

The woman looked at him, without any extra emotion in her eyes. Instead, she asked, "Qi Shangyue, how much do you think your life is worth?"

Qi Shangyue looked into her eyes, which were like green jade, and felt a little dazed. She immediately frowned and said, "Wen Xue, what do you want to do? No matter what you want to do, I advise you to stop. Those who cause trouble in the Gold and Silver Building will not have a good ending."

"Answer me," she ordered emotionlessly.

Qi Shangyue suddenly felt that he could not disobey her order. He opened his mouth and said angrily, as if he was forced to answer: "One thousand gold!"

"That's a low price." The woman smiled warmly. Although she was so gentle, Qi Shangyue shuddered. "Master Qi owns ten shops and five wine shops, and manages a place that makes a lot of money for the owner of the Gold and Silver House. You think too little of your life."

His heart skipped a beat when he heard that. An inexplicable tension and panic surged into his throat. He lowered his voice and asked, "What are you going to do?"

He questioned again, but there was less of a threatening and superior tone in his voice, and instead there was an air of helplessness and anger.

But her next words made the color drain away from Qi Shangyue's face.

"Your fate is dark, your luck has run out, and a thousand gold coins cannot buy back your life."

Qi Shangyue felt a rush of blood to his head. In a ridiculous rage, he planned to call on the experts in the cabin to forcibly take down "Wen Xue" who was suffering from severe hypochondria.

But before he could move, it was as if a sharp sword mercilessly pierced his chest and penetrated deep into his soul. He staggered and lost strength, and fell heavily to the ground, without moving or making a sound.

Everyone exclaimed in confusion, and someone stepped forward tentatively.

"Master Qi, what's wrong with you?"

"Did he fall?"

"No, he didn't fall hard, but he didn't get up for such a long time...ah - he's dead -"

A scream resounded through the sky, and Qi Shangyue's exposed skin was seen being cut bit by bit by a knife, with blood oozing out of the tiny cracks. The amount of bleeding had slowly turned him into a bloody man.

The woman slightly closed her eyes and leaned against the cold snake, her eyes clear: "And my name is Xu Shanshan... I don't like others to randomly change my name."

"died?!"

"How did he die? He was clearly standing there and talking just now, how could he suddenly die?" Many people took several steps back in fright, watching the sticky blood soaking the carpet, just as their hearts were soaked by the coolness and coldness at this moment.

"It's her! She just said something about how fate has ended, and Qi died last month. She also said that we must give up our wealth to avoid disaster, otherwise we will die too."

"I don't believe her lies. She must have used some means to assassinate Qi Shangyue. This woman must have a questionable background!"

"Do you think we will believe you if you do this? The death of Qi Zhangshi was either an accident or you were the one who murdered him in secret. Tell me, who are you and who ordered you to come to the Gold and Silver House to cause trouble?"

"Yes, I felt that something was wrong with this woman. How could a prostitute who was being sold have the ability to command all the beasts to obey her?"

Seeing that they were getting more and more excited, they wanted to drag her down and torture her to force her to confess her background and origins. The shop assistants and thugs in the gold and silver shop didn't know what to do when they saw that Qi Shangyue's death was suspicious.

Xu Shanshan did not move. The beasts crawling at her feet saw the people stirring. They were keenly aware of the ill intentions of humans and their killing instinct was awakened. Once they showed their ferocious and violent side, those good-for-nothings were frightened so much that their faces turned pale and they dared not act recklessly.

"Strange, what is this on my hand? I can't wipe it off no matter how hard I try."

A man suddenly found a red mark on the palm of his hand. It was like a maple leaf, as bright red as a ghost bride's wedding dress, eerily and disturbingly red.

“Why can’t it be wiped off!”

The man eagerly spread out his palm and showed it to everyone: "What is this? It's so hot, no, it's so cold, I feel so uncomfortable--"

Before he could finish his words, he seemed to be hit by something heavy. His neck suddenly tilted, his head became twisted and abnormal, and then he fell backwards to the ground.

"What's going on? Master Xu, what's wrong with you? Wake up."

"No, why don't you touch his neck and feel for his pulse?"

This touch frightened the man so much that he immediately crawled away using his hands and feet.

"He, he's dead!"

died?

Why did he die?

At this moment, the other young man's body went limp, his arm knocked over the wine glasses, and then he slipped to the ground, never having a chance to get up again.

Those who knew him rushed forward to check, and upon seeing this, they were also frightened out of their wits.

"He, he's dead too!"

One after another, people died suddenly for no reason, and their deaths were not all the same. The horrifying aura of death suddenly enveloped their heads.

If the man was really killed by this woman named "Wen Xue", she had clearly been on the stage the entire time. She had no chance to do anything in front of everyone. Even if she did, so many people should have noticed something...

But if it wasn't her, how did these people die? Was it really bad luck, disaster, and the death of the devil?

Was what she said true or false?
"I am a fortune teller and a celestial master. I can help you get rid of disasters and misfortunes. You all have a chance to bid for your life. But if you misjudge your worth, even gods can't save you."

Regardless of whether they believed Xu Shanshan's words or not, the matter before them was imminent.

"You can take your time to think about it, but if you have a red mark on your palm, you should hurry up, because once it turns deep red, you will have no chance."

As she described, they suddenly felt a cold wind blowing, and a chill rising from the soles of their feet, making them feel creepy.

"Don't spread rumors here!"

"That's right. We won't believe you at all! What red mark? Who has a red mark on their hand?"

Xu Shanshan still smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. When the last one of you dies, you will believe it."

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and kill this woman for me!"

Those present were all rich and powerful people. For their own safety, they were always accompanied by experts wherever they went. At this time, dozens of figures rose from the ground and turned into "black whips" to whip Xu Shanshan, revealing their murderous intent.

Seeing that the situation in the Gold and Silver Building had become chaotic, the shop assistants and thugs immediately took action. Arrows were shot from the dark, and murderous intent from all directions was focused on Xu Shanshan alone.

But she was not in a hurry. With just a wave of her hand, the beasts communicated with her and let out dull roars. The huge python swung its long tail, the agile black panther and the tiger looked majestic, and the manic white wolf let out a shrill cry. A protective barrier was formed in the sky and on the ground, which was indestructible.

There were no flaws or gaps. The attackers and the sneak attackers only felt a shadow approaching. They huddled together closely to protect the woman in the white dress.

At this time, another guest fell down silently.

This time, everyone couldn't wait to step forward and spread out the dead man's palm, and sure enough, there was a red mark on the palm, but with his death, the red mark disappeared again and moved to someone else's hand.

"Hurry, hurry and take a look at your hands!"

Before, they sat in the high seats, admiring the killing and buying on the field, feeling so proud and superior.

But now it is their turn to become objects to be slaughtered, living creatures to be evaluated, and only then can they understand how uncomfortable and frightening this thing is.

Wu Bi was dumbfounded above: "This is not a beauty at all, this is clearly a carnivorous plant. So many people died in the blink of an eye, and she is not panicked at all."

"How did she do it? I don't believe these people died because of their destiny." Wu Yi frowned.

A guest stared at his palm nervously and breathlessly, fearing that a red mark would appear in the next second, but sometimes the more you don't want something to happen, the more it will happen.

His pupils dilated as he looked at the red marks gradually appearing on his palms. He finally couldn't stand this torture anymore and screamed, "I'm willing to pay five thousand gold coins. Can I buy my life?"

Xu Shanshan glanced at him and said regretfully, "Your life is worth only five thousand gold? The price is too low."

The guest's eyes and mouth opened wide, and then he fell straight to the ground.

"You can compete with others to buy a beautiful beast for thousands of gold, torture it to death, and then continue to spend a large sum of money to buy it to satisfy your own sadistic hobby, but you are so stingy with your own life. It seems that your life is nothing more than this in your eyes."

Seeing that all those who did not believe in evil had died, the psychological defenses of the remaining people were gradually collapsing.

"I don't want to die. I am willing to pay ten thousand gold, no, fifteen thousand gold to buy my life." A frightened man rushed forward and pleaded with Xu Shanshan.

"But I don't have that much money on me, but I will definitely send the remaining amount to make up for it when I return... Is that okay?"

Obviously, the price he offered was fair. Xu Shanshan accepted this "deal". She said, "You should know that if you violate the life contract signed with the Heavenly Master, you will be killed by the backlash of the contract, right?"

He didn't know it before, but he knows it now.

The man assured again and again: "I will never disobey you! Master, please rest assured that I will definitely send you the money after I return."

Xu Shanshan never believed in any verbal promises. Her eyes were so clear and sober that people dared not look directly at her, as if she could see through everything.

"It doesn't matter. If you don't give me money, you will die."
