What do you mean by not needing to point fingers? What do you mean by not believing in fate? What nonsense! It's all because you think it's expensive!
On the long street, the old man took a few steps back, as if he was getting to know this world-famous young man Tianjiao again. He said with emotion, "You're quite capable to be able to cut me down to the price of a half-immortal!"
Half-immortal?
Jiang Wang smiled but did not say anything.
This mysterious old man finally started to "work". He looked at Jiang Wang from head to toe for a long time, then looked again and again.
"Please hurry up. I do have something to do," Jiang Wang reminded him.
The old man did not take it to heart. He only said with emotion, "Looking at your face, you're in the prime of your life now. Your identity is extraordinary!"
Jiang Wang said, "You don't have to look at my face. Just look at my horse and you'll know!"
The old man said again, "I see that your treasure light is restrained, and you're born with divine splendor. If you can forge ahead, your future will be limitless!"
Jiang Wang said with a smile, "You should have already known about me before you came. As long as you know my name, you won't have a bad future. "
"But …"
"But?"
"You're like a dark cloud in the Heavenly Court. Your karma swims in your soul. Your treasure light is dim, and your divine splendor hides evil." The old man said in a low voice, "I see that you lost your mother when you were young, and your father when you were young. Before you turned 20 … almost all your friends and neighbors died!"
These were truly shocking words!
Moreover, it was indeed what he had encountered before.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have been convinced.
Jiang Wang's expression did not change. "Will there be a bloody disaster in the near future?"
"Eh?" The old man looked surprised. "You can predict too?"
"Then why did you save me?" Jiang Wang asked, "Do you want to buy something to ward off disaster?"
"Uh." The old man said, "Of course I do. I have a protective talisman here. It's bathed in the essence of the sun and moon and woven from the spirit threads of the Netherworld. I held it on me and recited all kinds of scriptures. I wrote the proverbs to ward off disaster. I burned incense and prayed every day for a total of ninety-nine years and received countless merits. It can ward off disaster and protect you! "
Jiang Wang looked troubled. "It's such a precious thing, but I only have a thousand vitality stones on me. I don't know if it's enough …"
"Enough, of course it's not enough!" The old man sighed. "But who asked this old man to be so soft-hearted and unable to bear to see the world suffer? Especially when you're so young and have a great life ahead of you. Fine! As long as you give me a thousand primeval stones, I'll sell this talisman to you! "
As he spoke, he took out an amulet from his bosom and handed it to Jiang Wang.
It looked no different from the amulets sold to ordinary people in Taoist temples. The price was about two to three coins. The stitches were especially unbearable and even came off the thread!
When Jiang Wang was practicing martial arts in the outer sect of the Dao Academy, he had also sewed his own clothes. Although his craftsmanship was not as good as Ling He's, it was not an exaggeration to say that his craftsmanship was better than that of this amulet!
"No, no." Jiang Wang shook his head and said, "I'm a man, how can I take advantage of you? It should be worth as much as it should be. Old man, wait a few years for me. When I have enough primeval stones, I'll come back and buy it from you! "
The old man sighed and said, "I can wait, but you can't. There's a disaster recently, how can I not be worried? Let's not talk about it too much. If this old man suffers a little loss, then so be it. You can have this amulet for a thousand primeval stones. "
As he sighed, he stood on tiptoe and stuffed the amulet into Jiang Wang's bosom.
Jiang Wang stepped back and said, "Old man, you can't do that. You've already worshipped it for ninety-nine years. Why don't you take it back and worship it for another year to round it up and sell it for a higher price?"
The old man snorted and frowned unhappily. "What do you mean by selling it for a higher price? Why would this old man care about that? This old man sees that we're fated, so I'm helping you. Do you think this old man is blinded by greed? Take it quickly and eliminate the disaster as soon as possible! "
"Sigh." Jiang Wang also sighed. "But I just remembered that I left in a hurry today and didn't bring that many primeval stones with me."
The old man glared at him and said, "Then how many did you bring?!"
Jiang Wang raised a finger.
"A hundred? A hundred? Not one, right? You're going too far! I've worshipped it for ninety-nine years and used the essence of the sun and the moon … "
He suddenly stopped. "Sigh, forget it. I'll give you a discount. One primeval stone it is. "
He held the amulet in his right hand and handed it to Jiang Wang. He stretched out his left hand in front of Jiang Wang. "Give me the money and I'll give you the goods."
From a thousand to a hundred, this discount was so fierce that it fully explained the value of this amulet.
However, Jiang Wang just shook his head. "Old man, you misunderstood. I only brought one Dao Primeval Stone with me. "
Dao Primeval Stone and Primeval Stone were only one word apart, but the difference in value was ten thousand times.
The old man took back the amulet and looked up at Jiang Wang on horseback. "As expected, you still think this old man is a swindler, don't you?"
Of course, the person in front of him was unfathomable, but no matter who he was, it was impossible for him to take a thousand primeval stones from Jiang Wang with a broken amulet.
Jiang Wang smiled but didn't say anything.
Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was clear.
The old man snorted and suddenly turned around to face Jiang Wang. He grabbed Yan Zhao's reins. "I'll call you ignorant brat. Look carefully! "
He led Yan Zhao and took a big step forward.
Before Jiang Wang could react, he was already on horseback and moving forward.
The entire street suddenly fell silent.
The pedestrians on the street were all frozen in place. Everyone's expression was frozen at the previous moment.
The old man casually pointed at a young man in front of him and said, "This person's life expectancy is no more than thirty-seven."
This man looked strong and strong, and his complexion was excellent. No matter how one looked at him, he didn't look like he had a short life.
Jiang Wang was still in a state of shock and didn't say anything.
"If you don't believe me, then come and see."
As the old man spoke, he led Yan Zhao and took another step forward. However, he brought Yan Zhao and Jiang Wang and crashed into the young man together.
The entire street was gone.
In the flash of light and shadow, Jiang Wang rode a horse and appeared in a room.
From the layout, it seemed to be a bedroom.
A person was lying on the bed.
A woman was sobbing beside the bed.
A slightly younger child was giggling in the cradle.
Sorrow and joy were in the same room, and life and death were in the same place.
Jiang Wang looked forward. The sickly man lying on the bed was the young man he met on the streets of Linzi!
He was slightly older than before, but there was no way that he was in his early forties!
The people in the room didn't notice the sudden appearance of the two people and the horse.
The man on the bed pulled the woman's hand. "After I leave, don't stay here. If you find a suitable family, go and remarry. My parents are still alive and have some money. They can raise a child. You don't have to … "
His words were cut off at this point, and his soul had already left his body.
The woman immediately cried.
The old man led Yan Zhao and turned to the side.
When he looked again, he was already on the streets of Linzi.
Jiang Wang fell into a deep shock.
Illusion? Really?
If this was an illusion, why didn't he investigate at all? Why did what he saw and felt feel so real?
If this was real, how powerful would it be to see the future of others?
It was simply unimaginable!
"How is it?" On the streets of Linzi, which had regained its hustle and bustle, the old man turned around and looked at Jiang Wang. "You should believe me now, right? I'm a half-immortal in the human world. How can my reputation be undeserved? "
After this incident, he was still the same person and old, but suddenly he was like a mountain, making people feel terrified.
Jiang Wang said, "Elder's strength is not something Jiang Wang can estimate. This kind of magical power is really … "
"Alright, it's boring to change from arrogance to deference. There's no need to flatter me. "The old man raised his hand and interrupted him. He was very imposing." Do you want to buy the amulet? "
Jiang Wang looked at the old man seriously and said, "I'll pay a knife at most."
