I swallowed and killed gods in a strange world

Chapter 221 Blank Playing Cards
"Divination?" Makino looked hesitantly at the young girl who was clearly pretending to be old outside the small tent.

It can be seen that this girl conceals her age with heavy makeup intentionally or unintentionally.

The makeup on her face was not very uniform, and the floating powder was very serious.

"No need." Makino replied shaking his head, he didn't have the time to do divination.

The girl in the pointed hat smiled, the confidence on her face was as dazzling as the foundation floating on her face.

"My Tarot divination is very accurate."

"Tarot." Makino was stunned.

The syllables of this strange but familiar name were almost exactly the same as the Tarot he was familiar with.

After living in Nanjiang City for so many years, Makino has seen praying and praying, and even fortune-telling. This is the first time he has encountered Tarot divination.

Not knowing whether this Tarot divination is the same as the one he is familiar with, Makino thought for a moment, then nodded: "Then help me do the calculation."

Seeing that Makino agreed, the girl with the pointed hat clenched her small hands behind her back tightly,
Nodding to the little boy who handed out leaflets to him, Makino followed the girl in the pointed hat into the small tent.

The light in the tent was very dim, and only an orange oil lamp was used for lighting.

The girl in the pointed hat seemed to be used to such a dim environment and was not affected at all. She sat at the short table in the happy tent facing Makino.

The girl motioned for Makino to sit opposite her.

The orange oil lamp flickered dimly, the tent flickered, and a sense of mystery shrouded it.

Makino sat cross-legged across from the girl calmly, his gaze swept over the three stacked decks of cards on the table.

The six-pointed star is dotted with many reflective star points printed on the back of the card, which is somewhat different from the Tarot cards that Makino is familiar with.

The girl sitting opposite Makino didn't speak for a long time and seemed to be brewing mysterious emotions.

"Come on, you shuffle and cut the cards." After waiting for a while, the girl said.

"I wash it myself?" Makino asked back.

The corner of the girl's mouth was slightly raised, it seemed that Makino's question was in line with her wishes.

"Everyone's fate can only be predicted by themselves, and I am just an interpreter."

Makino nodded, the girl seemed to be very familiar with the procedure with her orderly look.

Taking a deck of cards on the table casually, Makino quickly shuffled the cards and handed them to the girl: "Okay."

The girl spread her hands, looked at the cards in front of her seriously, and said in a low voice, "What do you want to divination?"

"Past, present, and future." Makino said three questions that novices who learn Tarot must ask.

Past, present and future represent the three sets of tarot cards.

Asking for divination draws three cards in turn, and these three cards represent the past, present and future.

The girl was stunned when she heard the words, and then she raised the corners of her mouth, showing an imperceptible smile, and said, "Then you shuffle the cards again. Only when you know what you want to ask, can you shuffle the correct set of cards."

Makino took a deep breath and took back the cards, shuffled and cut them again.

Putting the shuffled cards in front of the girl again, Makino said, "Is it okay this time?"

"Yes." The girl animal took out a card from the top of the deck and put it on Makino's left hand, and said in a low voice, "This is the past."

"This one is now." The girl placed the second card directly in front of Makino.

When she picked up the third card, she suddenly saw Makino's empty cheating. It seemed that her emotions had been affected. The girl's voice was as low as a mosquito: "This is the future."

"Okay, which card do you want to look at first?" The girl calmed down her emotions, raised her head and met Makino's naked eyes.

"Let's look at it first." Makino pondered for a while.

The girl nodded, and turned over Makino's watch cards.

The moment they saw the flipped cards, Makino and the girl froze at the same time.

The flipped card was empty, a blank card.

It seems that when all playing cards are first opened, there will be a blank playing card inside, so that when a card is lost, it can be marked as a replacement.

Makino thought that the girl in front of him was not very professional, but he didn't expect that she would come out to do business without even finishing the deck.

"This..." the girl with the pointed hat looked into Makino's eyes, with a embarrassed expression: "I just bought a new card today, and forgot to take out the blank card."

"No, do it again."

The moment the girl's voice fell, the curtain of the tent was lifted suddenly, and the bright sunlight shone in, making Makino, who was used to the dark, instinctively squint his eyes.

The moment the curtain of the tent was lifted, the girl in the pointed hat visibly panicked and hurriedly put away the cards on the table. She accidentally pushed the other two decks of cards to the side, and suddenly three decks of cards were piled up.

"Xiao Ni, you are pretending to be me again!" A familiar female voice sounded from behind Muye: "Go back quickly, your mother told you to go back and look at the stall!"

Hearing the sound, Makino turned his head in surprise and looked at Jing Xiran who was standing in the sun, wearing a long black dress and a pointed hat.

"Uncle?!"

"That little girl is the child of Aunt Mi who sells cakes next door. I asked her to come over and help me look around the shop first." After sending off Xiaoni who was pretending to be a fortune teller, Jing Xiran sat down in Makino's seat rather embarrassed. opposite.

The light and darkness in the tent were still uncertain, and Makino looked straight at the bag of cooked food and a long loaf of bread that Jing Xiran was carrying.

"I didn't think about waking you up this morning, uncle, because you haven't woken up yet." Jing Xiran put the things on the table.

"Are you a fortune teller?" Makino asked curiously.

"Well, this is my profession." Jing Xiran looked embarrassed, obviously this profession did not bring her a good life.

It seems that business is not very good.

Makino nodded, not planning to comment on Jing Xiran's career.

Looking at the scattered cards on the table, when Makino was about to help tidy up, Jing Xiran said, "Uncle, are you interested in this? How about I give you a divination."

"It's still not necessary." Makino shook his head, the previous farce made him lose interest in this.

If fate and the like can really be calculated, then what fun is there in a fixed future.

"It's already here, uncle, I won't take your money." Jing Xiran patted his shriveled chest and said, "I'm pretty accurate."

While speaking, Jing Xiran directly stacked the cards on the table into a large pile.

"Uncle, what do you most want to ask?"

Makino opened his mouth, and seeing Jing Xiran's eager eyes, he simply repeated what he asked earlier: "Past, future and present."

"Hmm..." Jing Xiran nodded, and directly pushed the deck of cards in front of Makino: "Uncle, draw three cards."

"This is three decks of cards, and" Makino was interrupted by Jing Xiran before he finished speaking: "This is the arrangement of fate. Every road we have traveled is affected by the distant past, and so is the future." in this way."

When Jing Xiran spoke, his dark brown eyes looked deeply at Makino.

Makino nodded hesitantly and reached out to draw three cards from the scattered deck.

Jing Xiran didn't go through the process, but directly took the three cards drawn by Makino.

Seeing the three cards drawn by Muye in his hand, Jing Xiran's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Muye in disbelief.

At the same time, she spread out the three cards in her hand.

The three cards are all blank cards without exception.
