Chapter 4 Being Bewitched
As soon as Wei Liang saw Liu Shiyou's ferocious eyes, he knew he was in trouble. He was so scared that his face turned pale. He couldn't believe that Xu Shanshan could even say this. He didn't dare to say anything anymore.

"Liu Shiyou, I owe you a favor. I just did a fortune-telling for your Liu family for free, but if you want to interpret the fortune-telling to help you get out of trouble, according to the rules of the fortune-teller world, there will be another price."

Liu Shiyou knew Xu Shanshan's greed too well, and he sneered: "Oh, tell me, how much do you want?"

Xu Shanshan shook her head: "It's not about money."

He was suspicious. No money?
"Then what do you want?"

Xu Shanshan's black pupils were quiet and mysterious, and the light that shone through them was unpredictable: "The opportunity in you."

"what?"

"Your Liu family has encountered an unexpected disaster. If it hadn't happened, you would have a prosperous career in the future. You would have been promoted to a high position if you hadn't received the official title in the year and the wealth in the month."

Liu Shiyou: “…” I didn’t quite understand.

"What I mean is that you will surely be a high-ranking official in the future... and now, are you willing to take this opportunity to help your Liu family overcome the difficulties at this time?"

When Liu Shiyou suddenly heard that he would have a high position and a generous salary in the future, he was stunned at first, and then he was ecstatic.

But Xu Shanshan's next words made his face turn pale again, and he fell into crazy entanglement again.

I don't know whether what she said is true or not, but what if it is true?

"Can't I exchange it for something else?"

Even if he had to trade impotence for it, he would accept it! After all, he still had an older brother at home.

Xu Shanshan just smiled and said nothing.

She once sat high in the temple, accompanied by the sun, moon and stars. As time went by, she felt that she was so pure and unselfish that she was like an immortal, detached from the world.

But is she a saint?

No, she is as vulgar and dark as a sinner, and the "reward" she receives is also the price required to erase the knowledge of her destiny.

Liu Shiyou took a deep breath, and finally clenched his teeth: "Okay! I'll give it to you! As long as my Liu family is safe and sound, I will pay any price!"

Liu Shiyou is willing and willing to exchange an illusory possibility for a real Liu family!
Maomao happily crawled out from Xu Shanshan's sleeve and stood on her shoulder. A wisp of white mist flowed out from Liu Shiyou's head and left and right shoulders, and finally entered its belly.

belch!
So full!

"Shan, the contract has been signed. And who knows, if I take advantage of this great opportunity, your Taiyi Divine Numbers might be able to break through the bottleneck of the eighth level of 'Heaven and Man Return to Oneness'!"

Xu Shanshan was stunned, and couldn't hide his surprise.

Why?

She has been cultivating her mind and understanding the world for many years, but she hasn't gained as much as this time when she used her disabled body to tell fortunes in the world?

-

"Little girl, the quarter of an hour has passed. It's time to fulfill your promise to me." The old man's deep and powerful voice sounded at this time.

After Liu Shiyou's affairs came to a temporary end, Xu Shanshan put Maomao back into her sleeve and took out a tortoise shell from her sleeve pocket.

"Old General, please shake the plate six times first. When shaking, you must focus on what you are measuring in your heart."

The word "old general" made the old man's eyes tremble, but he didn't say anything. He just accepted the title, squatted on the ground, and shook the ball six times to make a hexagram.

He is actually a general.

It was not surprising, as they had previously felt that he looked like a veteran who had fought on the battlefield for many years.

Everyone on the Liu family's side pricked up their ears and listened, and Liu Shiyou stared even more intently, wanting to see what skills Xu Shanshan could display to impress the old general.

Xu Shanshan looked at the hexagrams that had been shaken six times and asked, "His birth date."

He reported it immediately.

"how?"

Xu Shanshan was silent for a moment, and said, "The person in the coffin is the old general's legitimate son. He was 22 years old and died in a great victory half a year ago. I guess the old general couldn't figure out the reason for his death."

Everyone listened with bated breath and observed the old general's expression. Was the former charlatan making accurate predictions or was he just guessing?
But seeing the stunned look on his face as if he had been hit by something, they were all secretly surprised.

"Yes, I can't understand it! Everyone has returned, but why did my son die on the battlefield?"

The old general became more and more excited as he spoke, his voice hoarse: "Everyone said that he went alone to eliminate the enemy general, so he was ambushed. But at that time, he was accompanied by many soldiers and had sufficient manpower. Why did he go alone? I know my son. He is cautious by nature and never rushes into anything to gain merit!"

Xu Shanshan agreed: "What the old general said is very true. The death of the young general was not caused by God's will, but by human will."

He stared at her blankly, his eyes as hot as magma: "Man-made? Who was it! Was it the troops he trusted who betrayed him, or the deputy general who followed the army, or the enemy army..." He must have suspected all these people.

"neither."

The old general was stunned, and asked urgently and angrily: "Who killed my son?"

Xu Shanshan looked at the black coffin.

A heroic general seemed to appear before her eyes. He was standing sadly on the battlefield in the strong wind, with a row of hidden arrows from behind aiming at the soldiers following him.

No one saw it, no one suspected it, because behind them were friendly reinforcements.

Only him.

In his hand, he tightly grasped the spear that had accompanied him through countless battles. The tip of the spear trembled slightly, but his eyes revealed firmness and determination.

For the sake of his soldiers and his family, in the end, he chose to be willing to die.

When he rushed to the battlefield of blood and fire alone, the army that was preparing for a secret attack in the dark quietly put away their murderous intentions.

Some things cannot be said openly, and some things cannot be discussed in public.

Xu Shanshan said: "The young general is a loyal and heroic soul. He was willing to die for justice. The general may as well open the coffin and take a look. The truth is on the inside of the young general's arm."

The old general was startled and rushed towards the black coffin with great speed.

"Open the coffin!"

The soldiers opened the coffin lid and found that the person inside had been preserved intact by a secret method. However, as soon as the coffin was opened, a strange and foul smell still wafted out.

The people from the Liu family quickly covered their noses and retreated.

The old general's eyes were red. He untied the young general's shroud, lifted his arm, and checked it... He almost collapsed.

Fortunately, someone behind him quickly stepped forward to support him.

What is the truth?
Why didn't she just tell him clearly what the old general saw that made him feel so sad and as if the sky was falling?
At this moment, Liu Shiyou just felt an itch that was tickling her heart and lungs. Didn't she know that people would go crazy if their curiosity was not satisfied?

It was unknown how long it took before the heartbroken old general recovered a little.

He ordered people to carry the coffin down the mountain, and before going down the mountain, he bowed solemnly to Xu Shanshan and said, "Thank you... Master Xu, your divination is equivalent to saving my Huo family and Huo Tinglei. I have no way to repay you, but please keep this Huo family token. If you have any problems in the future, just come to Longdong to let me know."

Xu Shanshan took it with his hand, and said meaningfully: "General and the mountain are destined to be together, we will definitely meet again in the future."

-

“Are you moving?”

Liu Shiyou noticed that Xu Shanshan was carrying an exaggeratedly large package on the carriage, with a red-eyed green-feathered parrot standing on his shoulder. He asked curiously, "You still keep birds?"

Xu Shanshan sat upright and didn't talk to him.

Liu Shiyou looked at her upright sitting posture and said yin-yangly, "Others say that a person with a righteous heart has an upright body, but I guess they have never seen a person with a crooked heart and an upright body."

"If my heart is crooked, then your Liu family will be swallowed up by the Tang family, the number one family in Jiangling."

Liu Shiyou immediately swallowed his anger.

The Liu family is considered wealthy and prominent in Jiangling City, but they have always been second to the Shangqiu Tang family.

"Fool, fool."

Shit, this stinky bird can curse?!

-

The Jiangling area is now a desolate and dilapidated scene. After the flood, fields were destroyed and houses collapsed. After the severe flood, there was a severe drought, which made the people in the Jiangling area miserable.

Due to the recent influx of a large number of refugees into Jiangling City, which exceeded the city's accommodation capacity, the city was closed to outsiders and was also worried about the outbreak of an epidemic.

But with Liu Shiyou, the God of Wealth, leading the way, they can naturally enter the city smoothly.

When entering the city, Xu Shanshan saw a porridge stall set up under the city wall. The guards in the city immediately dispersed to maintain order. Among them, a monk in plain robes immediately caught Xu Shanshan's attention.

She looked puzzled: "Mao, I think I saw one of my fiancés."

At the same time, she also remembered one thing, Jiang Ling Tang family... the Tang family that had an engagement with the original owner, the Tang family and the Liu family, this matter is quite interesting.
