90,000 Years of Longevity

Chapter 165: Fortune Telling

In the morning, the breath was very cold.

In the alley, the door of the courtyard had never been opened.

In the courtyard, an old man with sparse hair was sitting cross-legged on a dust-stained pad, and there was no one beside him.

The herb field still exuded a faint and refreshing fragrance.

However, at this moment, the old man did not pay attention to the herb field but looked at the silver stone in front of him faintly.

A lion pattern was carved on the stone.

There were also two lines of ancient texts from the age of mythology.

The old man took it seriously.

After not moving for dozens of minutes, his mouth murmured, "Knowing the past events in this life, and the surname is left on the Stone of Three Lives. It's unknown who she will be in the next life, one bowl of soup to forget the events of the past three lives."

This was exactly the meaning of the words on the stone.

...

In Hebei, there were a lot of pedestrians on a street.

On both sides of this street, there were many old people sitting on the ground.

Among the elderly, there were men and women.

Someone was wearing a black robe, holding a black cloth strip in his hand which read "Iron Gate Breaking the Heaven's Secret", sitting cross-legged with eyes closed, looking very high and deep.

Someone had a mole on his chin with several long hairs on it, and a piece of shabby white paper was spread on the front. The brush writing on it was very vigorous, "There is nothing in the world that can't be seen through."

Someone was gray-haired, wearing a pair of black sunglasses, and still holding a cane in his hand. There was no paper in front of him. Instead, he wrote a line in white chalk with the words "Knowing astronomy at the top, and geography at the bottom."

There were too many people like this. Looking at the whole street, there were hundreds of them...

Plus, the street itself looked very old, so many pedestrians passing by were really bewitched by this atmosphere.

Many fortune-tellers were in front of them, and some guests were asking...

Ye Bei was walking slowly on this street.

From time to time, there were some free fortune-tellers who called out to him.

"Sir, I think your temperament is extraordinary, but your complexion is as pale as paper, do you have any concerns? Just 100 Yuan is enough. I, Master Li promises to help you find your destined partner, seize good luck, and solve your troubles."

"Young man, you look expressionless, but in fact, you have a lot of thoughts. 58 Yuan will do, and this old man will solve all doubts for you."

"Young man, do you want to know your fortune? I am the most accurate on this street. I am called God Fortune-Teller. There is nothing in this world that I can't see through."

When Ye Bei walked to this place, such similar voices were buzzing in his ear.

However, he did not pay attention to it, his eyes were still very indifferent.

These sounds couldn't pique his interest at all.

Ye Bei didn't walk fast but was not slow either.

After a few seconds, he saw an empty seat in the middle of the street.

His pace stopped immediately.

Next to him, a fortune-teller with sunglasses looked ahead and muttered, "Young man, are you going to fortune-telling? I have been blind for decades, but I faintly feel that you are the one I am waiting for. With just a minute, I guarantee to tell you an infinitely useful idea."

Ye Bei said nothing.

A fortune-telling master with a white beard next to him looked curiously, "Don't listen to the blind man, in this fortune-telling street, I'm more famous than him. I think you have an extraordinary temperament. You are not mediocre but will go far, it's a pity..." At this point, the master deliberately climaxed his words.

If it was on other weekdays, the person being said would definitely ask him why it was a pity.

But a pity, today he met Ye Bei.

Then the master turned sideways and looked at Ye Bei...

Rustle!

He was that Ye Bei not only ignored him but moved casually, then a strip of white cloth appeared from Ye Bei's hand.

That master tilted his head, and after seeing the words on the white cloth, the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely.

"Knowing the past, knowing the future! Young man, your tone is really big, although this pretense is bluffing, you are really still too young. I guess there will be no business even if you stand for a day." Next to him, the blind man with sunglasses also looked sideways. Seeing the words on it, he took off the sunglasses, staring at first, then his voice was full of sarcasm.

Ye Bei remained silent.

He just spread the white cloth on the ground and stood there with his hands on his back.

Occasionally the breeze blew, his black hair flutters and it looked otherworldly...

The two fortune tellers next to him saw that Ye Bei ignored them and stopped talking. They sat down again, one put on sunglasses, and the other continued to yell at the pedestrians passing by.

There were a lot of pedestrians, so the two masters next to each other had business from time to time.

But Ye Bei's side was deserted.

Occasionally someone stopped in front, but it was purely for watching the excitement and talking.

"These days, liars are too stubborn. Who believes such a young fortune-teller? Does he think he looks sophisticated in ancient costumes? Do you want to cheat this old lady?" An old lady who was carrying a vegetable basket staggered by, and when she saw Ye Bei, she stopped for a few seconds, then shook her head, and murmured something like this in her mouth.

"Oh, now fortune-telling masters are starting to idolize? He is so handsome and he came out to set up a stall, this world has really changed." A middle-aged man came with a young woman in his arms, and his eyes were full of disdain. When he walked over, he jokingly said to the woman next to him, "Honey, do you see it? Born with a handsome look is useless. Now, it's a money society. Without money, you can only stand by the side of the road and cheat people."

"Tsk tsk, which school does he come from? Not going to study, but comes here to make trouble? He still knows the past and knows the future? Does he think he is a god?" A guy in casual clothes, short hair, and looked like a student walked by. After he saw Ye Bei, he dropped his words and left quickly.

"Pfft!"

Next to him, the "blind man" finally couldn't help it. After making a pop, he quickly covered his mouth with his hand.

The white-bearded fortune-telling master lowered his head, the muscles on his face kept twitching, wanting to laugh but suffocating fiercely.

Ye Bei was still very indifferent.

He treated the two guys next to him and those "uneducated" people earlier as air.

With that deep gaze, he faintly looked at the pedestrians passing by the street.

Those who had passed might not find out for a lifetime that there was a great opportunity before them, but they chose to ignore it.

Cause and effect.

This was often the case.

It inadvertently appeared and many people could see it but couldn't catch it.

Only a few people could hold it and change their lives completely.

Time flew.

The sun started from the east and gradually set to the west.

For a whole day, there were at least thousands of pedestrians passing by Ye Bei...

The two fortune-telling masters next to each other had received five or six guests, but none of them were found by Ye Bei.

The sun finally set to the west.

The "blind man" wearing sunglasses stood up, cleaned up the stall, and saw that Ye Bei was still standing, opened his mouth, and persuaded in a deep voice, "Young man, you are not suitable for this business, I think you should go home. People in this era are not stupid."

"That's right, fortune-telling needs to be very skillful and knowledgeable. What do you know at such a young age? You should go to a teacher and study hard for decades before coming back!" The white-bearded old man stroked his beard and said like a wise old man.

Just after the two of them had finished speaking, there was a fierce voice on the street.
