Hearing Beitang Wang Chuan say that he was a customer, Cao Cao could only helplessly look at him and put his hands on his waist, "Alright, you're a customer. Interpreting dreams is 100 gold coins, not a single copper coin less. Hand over the money!"
100 gold coins?
Beitang Wang Chuan smiled slightly. Even if it was 1 million gold coins, it was nothing to him. He casually pulled out a 100 gold coin banknote and handed it to Cao Cao, "Can I go in now?"
Cao Cao took the banknote and did not forget to warn Beitang Wang Chuan, "If you mess around, I'll tell Father Emperor that you bullied me!"
"Don't worry, I'm just divining a dream. There are too many scammers among the dream diviners in Shang Jing. Many people only know a little about the art of divining dreams and go around swindling people, saying that they are dream diviners. I want to see if the shopkeeper of this Duke Zhou building is a scammer!"
"Wait here. I'll go inside and take a look. I'll call you when I'm done!" After Cao Cao finished speaking, he put away the banknote and walked towards the inner hall. After a while, Cao Cao walked out, "Alright, follow me. Only you can go in!"
Beitang Wang Chuan smiled and had the person following him stay in the outer hall. He then followed Cao Cao into the inner hall. After passing through a door and a corridor, they arrived at a small pavilion in the bamboo forest, where they saw Xia Pingan.
The "Seven Steps to Compose a Poem" realm pearl provided Xia Pingan with 30 points of Shen Power. The Seven Steps to Compose a Poem had 30 words, and each word was one point of Shen Power. After fusing with it, Xia Pingan silently experienced the "Lotus Steps" skill in the pavilion.
The mystical aspect of this "Divine Skill Realm Pearl" was that once fused with it, Xia Pingan would be able to use Shen Power to activate this footwork skill. This skill seemed to be a supplementary skill for summoners to fight and escape. Just now, Xia Pingan silently tried it out in the courtyard. This skill actually allowed him to step on the lotus leaves in the courtyard as if he was flying. His entire person felt like he was floating in the air. It was truly useful.
Xia Pingan originally thought that no one would come to his door to steal his dreams today. He did not expect that there would be business early in the morning.
Sitting behind the desk and looking at Beitang Wang Chuan, who was walking behind Caocao, Xia Pingan blinked. This Caocao's face was a little similar to Beitang Wang Chuan's, especially their noses. They were tall and straight, as if they were made from the same mold. This man was older than Caocao. He couldn't be Caocao's older brother, right …
If he had a younger sister who ran out of the house for half a month, he would probably go and take a look, right?
Xia Pingan seemed to have understood something.
Compared to Xia Pingan, the moment she saw Xia Pingan, a mysterious light flashed in Beitang Wang Chuan's eyes. The shock in her heart was even more indescribable.
There would naturally be people to investigate who Caocao had been with these past few days. The imperial family of Da Shang would not allow a person of unknown origin to get close to the princess. It was just that the people who investigated were unable to find any information about this "Yang Cheng" before he came to Shangjing. They only knew that this Yang Cheng did not seem to lack money. Previously, he had rented a courtyard in Changle Alley near Ping Mountain. Yang Cheng did not deliberately get close to Caocao. Instead, Caocao was deliberately getting close to this Yang Cheng. Furthermore, Caocao was rather happy with him these past few days.
Today, Beitang Wang Chuan heard that this Yang Cheng actually considered himself to be a dream seer and opened a dream seer house. Coincidentally, Beitang Wang Chuan left the palace this morning to handle some matters and went to visit a sick official. When she passed by Tianyuan Bridge on her way back, she could not help but want to take a look at the identity of this man who made Caocao so obedient.
And once she saw Xia Pingan, Beitang Wang Chuan's "Eye of Truth" divine skill was activated. With a glance, she saw through the wishful mask on Yang Cheng's face. And the face under the mask, if it was not Xia Pingan who had joined the Judgement Army, who else could it be?
Xia Pingan had made a great contribution last time and could be considered to have saved her once. These days, the Judgement Army had been looking for Xia Pingan all over Shangjing. It was just that this Xia Pingan seemed to have disappeared. Beitang Wang Chuan even thought that Xia Pingan had already escaped Shangjing. She did not expect that this guy had actually changed and become a dream seer.
Interesting, interesting …
Seeing Xia Pingan's true face under the mask, Beitang Wang Chuan's expression did not change, but her gaze became even more profound.
"Does this young master want to divine a dream? Please sit!" Xia Pingan gestured for Beitang Wang Chuan to sit across from him.
Hastily closing the door and leaving, before leaving, she used her gaze to warn Beitang Wang Chuan not to cause trouble.
Hastily warning Beitang Wang Chuan's gaze was noticed by Xia Pingan. In his heart, he was even more certain about the relationship between Beitang Wang Chuan and Caocao. Caocao and this man should be siblings.
Inside the room, there was a burning sandalwood incense. It was quite peaceful and very lively. Xia Pingan was about to ask Beitang Wang Chuan what dream he wanted to divine when the boy of fortune jumped out from Beitang Wang Chuan's secret mandala and onto the table in front of the two. The boy of fortune's face transformed into a figurine mask. The boy of fortune took off his mask and pointed at Xia Pingan. Then he pointed at his own eyes and pointed at Beitang Wang Chuan, making a series of hand gestures.
Xia Pingan was also stunned. What the boy of fortune meant was that the man opposite him had already seen through the mask on his face and knew his true face? How could this be …
Then, the boy of fortune wrote three words in the air in front of Xia Pingan — — Crown Prince.
Fuck!
If this man was the crown prince, then wasn't Caocao the princess of Da Shang?
Beitang Wang Chuan did not notice at all that the boy of fortune had appeared in front of him and had already revealed his true identity to Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan quivered and looked at Beitang Wang Chuan again. Xia Pingan's gaze also became deep.
The two people in the room looked at each other for more than ten seconds. You look at me, I look at you. The atmosphere was a little strange. Finally, it was Xia Pingan who broke the silence. He pretended to not know anything and asked, "Does this young master want to divine a dream?"
"That's right. I came today to divine a dream!" Beitang Wang Chuan also spoke, "Why is the price of a dream divination here so much higher than other places? There are many famous dream divination masters in Shang Jing. Even if they divine a dream once, it's only a few dozen gold coins. You want to divine a dream for a hundred gold coins. Why?"
"This young master has asked a good question. I divine a dream based on my ability. Since young master is the first customer of Duke Zhou's Building, I will divine a dream for young master for free. Young master can take back this hundred gold coins!" As Xia Pingan spoke, he took out the hundred gold coins banknote and placed it on the table, pushing it over.
Beitang Wang Chuan laughed, "Haha, as long as the divination is accurate, this hundred gold coins is nothing. I can give you ten thousand gold coins …"
"Alright, then I ask young master to tell me which dream you want to divine. I will divine it for young master!" Xia Pingan said.
Beitang Wang Chuan's expression became a little more serious. He thought for a while and said, "I had a dream the day before yesterday. I saw the army being defeated. I was in the midst of the defeated army. There was a raging flame beside me, burning my body. I wonder if this dream is auspicious or inauspicious?"
"Let me perform a dream for young master …" Xia Pingan stretched out his hand and pointed at Beitang Wang Chuan's forehead. That hazy dream appeared in front of Xia Pingan like a projection.
In the dream, Xia Pingan saw the army being defeated like a landslide. Beitang Wang Chuan was dressed in armor and was in the midst of the defeated army of the Shang Dynasty. He wanted to salvage the situation, but suddenly, the ground in front of Beitang Wang Chuan burned with a raging fire. That fire began to burn Beitang Wang Chuan's body. Beitang Wang Chuan's body glowed with a bright red light, like a furnace. And in that fire, Beitang Wang Chuan did not seem to feel much pain …
The strange thing about dreams was that everything in the dream did not appear according to logic. It was grotesque and variegated. Just like Beitang Wang Chuan's dream, he did not know how the army was defeated, but in the midst of the defeated army, a fire suddenly ignited beside him. It came without a beginning or end.
"How is it?" Beitang Wang Chuan asked.
"Young master's dream is split into two. There is inauspicious and auspicious!" Xia Pingan said.
"What do you mean?"
"Seeing the defeated army, there is inauspiciousness. This is an ominous sign. But young master is in the midst of the defeated army, there is a raging fire burning his body. This is the sign of a noble person helping you!" Xia Pingan was interpreting the dream. This interpretation of the dream was not made up by him, nor was he trying to flatter himself. It was Beitang Wang Chuan's dream that really had such a meaning.
Hearing Xia Pingan say this, Beitang Wang Chuan's expression became more serious, "Apart from this, what else does this dream foretell?"
"In young master's dream, the army was defeated without any reason. It happened completely suddenly. Once it appeared, it involved young master. This means that the ominous event will also happen suddenly, catching young master unprepared. Perhaps it will happen in the near future, or perhaps it has already happened and young master has not discovered it …"
