The universe is vast and vast, and the avenue is long and modern. I don't know when, people, gods, devils, and spirits jointly dominate the ancient and modern, up and down the eight walls, since the ancient people and demons after the melee of each other, they agreed not to invade each other, divide the autonomy, and divide the world into five countries, the country of China, the chieftain, the country of the spirit Zhongli, the country of the elves Youyi, the kingdom of God Zhulan, and the kingdom of the devil. The country of China is bordered by the emirate to the west, and is separated by large rivers and swamps. Zhongli Kingdom is located in the north of Huaxia Kingdom, half of the year is the severe cold season, and the border with Huaxia Kingdom is the high mountains and high city walls. The country of Zhulan is located in the vast sea in the east, facing the other five countries across the sea, and most of the residents are mages and practitioners, enlightened people seeking immortals. The kingdom of Youyi is close to the southern part of the kingdom of Huaxia, separated from it by a huge ravine, and is only connected by a few steep mountain ranges, and the border passes between the two countries are guarded by military soldiers. Located between Huaxia and Zhongli, the Demon Kingdom is vast, and the twelve states that make up the Demon Kingdom are widely covered with deserts, wastelands, shrubs, and forests. The demon kingdom is entangled in a river of flames, gushing and rushing day and night. Located in the central zone, China is the richest, with lush forests and mountains. The mountains are home to countless exotic beasts and tall ancient trees, and there are many rivers and lakes that merge into the eastern sea.

A large river of Yiluo winds at the southern end of the country of China and flows east into the sea, and the land on both sides of the river is vast and fertile. The Great River flows through Changqing Province, a province in the southeast of China. The capital of Changqing Province is Ninghua City, and the Yiluo River flows under the cliff opposite Ninghua City. Although Ninghua City is a remote place in China, the vast land is very fertile and prosperous because of the nourishment of the Yiluo River.

On this day, Ninghua City is the same as in the past, the market is crowded, the shops are lined up one after another, the signboards can be seen everywhere, the shouting and selling are endless, and the stalls, hawkers, and jugglers are busy with their own businesses on both sides of the street, a busy and prosperous scene.

An old man walked on one of the most prosperous streets in the city, this person was about fifty years old, dressed in brocade clothes, smiling, and looking very happy. When he was young, he was a scholar who read poetry and books, and now he is also a respected gentry in the local area, surnamed Li Mingche.

Li Che originally had three sons, the first two sons were all in the martial arts, but unfortunately fate was impermanent, and the two sons were killed in the battle between the two Chinese chiefs and sacrificed their lives for the country. Now Li Che only has one son under his knees, and the word Yunbin is named Yuebai. This Li Yuebai is extremely handsome, and read and never forget, Bo Gu Tong Jin, since childhood to learn riding and archery swordsmanship, look burly and strong, have the courage of ten thousand people, some of the poems and articles he wrote have been circulated in China.

In view of the fact that Li Che's two sons were recruited as military generals by the imperial court because of martial arts, and died on the battlefield, he only hoped that Li Yuebai, the only seedling, would take the road of official career like his grandfather Li Kai, get a Beijing official, stay away from the war, marry a wife and have children, and continue the incense of the Li family.

Seeing that the day of the Beijing Master Hall examination is approaching, Li Yuebai has won the provincial examination, and if he goes to Beijing for the scientific examination, the title of the gold list will naturally not be a problem. Thinking of this, Li Che was very happy, so he walked out of the mansion and wandered around the streets.

Suddenly, there was a commotion, and there was a banner not far ahead, and a group of people were clustered, as if they were watching the excitement, blocking Li Che's way.

"Knowing the heavens and the earth knows the ghosts and gods, counting the men and the bad is the good and the bad, the future of marriage is destined, and the rich and poor have their own share!" There was a shout from the crowd.

"Sir, how about you help me with numerology?" An old man asked.

"Not counting, not counting! The guest officer didn't listen carefully! Not too little, not too old! What are you at your age? ”

"Sir, what kind of family will my daughter marry in the future?" An old woman asked.

"No, no, no! You are also a fool, you didn't listen to me, men are counted as good luck, women are not counted! ”

"What a strange person, how can there be a fortune teller and pick and count, people are afraid that there are fewer people, you are good, pick the fat and pick the thin, either idle to take my pastime or crazy!"

"Look at the fortune telling also to talk about a fate, you can't force it, the old decay has always been like this, if I can't calculate accurately, there is a trace of error, I will pay you a hundred taels of silver, which is not convinced to try, everyone is proof! It only takes two taels of silver to calculate once, which is not expensive or expensive! The man shouted.

Li Che listened, and thought that his son would go to the Beijing Palace immediately to take the test, but he didn't know how many people would be in the meeting, and after listening to the words of this fortune teller, his son Li Yuebai met his requirements. He pondered: "This fortune teller also talks about conditions, maybe he is really a master!" You might as well try it and see what the future of my son Yuebai comes to the Sun Temple to try! ”

The old man squeezed closer, got into the wall, and saw an old man dressed in quails, looking like a beggar, sitting on a broken straw mat, and standing a flag behind him, which was exactly the line used to tell fortunes.

The old man was blind in one eye, skinny and skinny, with a shriveled face and a scorched head, like a skeleton. He kept looking Li Che up and down with his only remaining eye, and frightened Li Che.

"Count it for yourself or for someone else?" The old man asked.

"Calculate for my son, I'm about to go to Beijing to catch the exam, and ask about the future." Li Che replied cautiously.

"How old is Ling Lang?" The old man asked.

"Nine times out of ten this year, Dragon." Li Che replied.

"You're born in time, right?" The old man asked again.

"Huh?! How do you know?! Li Che was surprised.

"Of course I know, the old decay sees the subtle knowledge, looks at the present and the future, if this is all wrong, you can cut down the flag behind you and drive the old decay out of Ninghua City!" The old man's expression was a little arrogant.

"Then you give me the math, and I will be rewarded!" When Li Che heard him say this, he felt that the old man in front of him was a real master. It is a side skill handed down by Venerable Qiu Meng of Huaxia, but there are very few people who are really proficient in this way, and most of them rely on deception to eat.

"It's not much, the silver given is enough for a meal of wine and food!" As he spoke, the old man took out a few yarrow plants and tortoise shells from the cloth bag beside him and placed them in place.

Li Che moved a few of the yarrows and a piece of tortoise shell as the old man instructed.

"Huh?! Woe to you! "The old man said.

"What does the old gentleman say?" Li Che was taken aback when he heard this, and he didn't want his only remaining seedling to have another accident.

"Ling Lang will have a bloody disaster in a few months!" Count the old man's way.

"Huh?! How is that good! The old man is only here under his knees, and I hope that Mr. will come to the rescue! Li Che begged.

"Don't panic, the old man will give you something, you will take it home, hang it under the window of Linglang's room, and after a full month, you will resolve the disaster!" The old man took something out of the cloth bag.

Li Che took it and took a look, but it was a silver glass mirror. The mirror is crystal clear, bright as new, not to mention very valuable, but also unusual.

"Old gentleman, how dare you easily store such a valuable thing?" Li Che said nervously.

"Take it, and when it helps you to remove the calamity, I will take it back. Ling Lang is a unicorn talent, worthy of this thing, make! Make! Mr. Zhansuan smiled.

"Thank you, old man, then I'll take it later. By the way, there's something I don't know where to ask? Li Che said.

"What's the matter? Just ask, if you can help you, you will help. Mr. Zhan said.

"Sir is clever, but why do you live a life of sleeping in the open and wandering around?" Li Che said. He was still a little skeptical, it was unusual for such a poor person to have such a precious treasure mirror.

"Hey, I don't like to hear what you say, how can I look at the old man with a vulgar eye!? The old decay has always liked to be free and happy, with the sky as the bed, the bright moon as a friend, and the breeze as a companion, and has no right to be fetters to the name, away from the net of wealth! Forget it, the old decay doesn't have anything to do with you, and it's in vain for a fool like you to talk too much! If you believe, then take the mirror and give it to the old man two taels of silver to buy wine. If you don't believe it, return the mirror to the old decay! If the future is unpredictable, don't regret it! Mr. Zhan Shu was a little angry and said impatiently.

"The old gentleman has misunderstood, how dare you despise it! In that case, do what you tell you to do! If my son is safe and sound in the future, I will be grateful! Li Che said.

"Thank you no need, the old man will get this mirror back in the future! Ha ha! Mr. Zhansuan smiled.
