Journey to the West: I want to be sanctified

Chapter 132 Heading to the Temple of the City God

Chirp chirp.

The melodious bird call woke up Yuan Shoucheng who was sleeping on the balcony.

"Oh, my head, what's wrong with me, why am I sleeping on the ground?"

Yuan Shoucheng rubbed his head and slowly got up from the ground.

Looking at the pool of blood on the ground, he remembered what happened last night.

I was on the balcony, watching the sky at night, and saw a cyan shooting star, which was extremely strange, and I tried to calculate it forcefully, but was backlashed.

"What exactly is that star? It's backlashed so badly? That's all, let me teach myself a lesson, and I won't force my calculations anymore. Is this also a warning from the heavens?"

Yuan Shoucheng is only in his twenties, and he has learned divination since elementary school.

In his hometown, he came out to set up a stall when he was ten years old, and told people fortune-telling.

The folks in the village with a radius of hundreds of miles, if they lost something, they would look for him, and he would make sure of it, and look for it according to the place he calculated, and if they found it, they would get a little reputation in their hometown.

However, the young Yuan Shoucheng has high ambitions and is unwilling to help people find lost things in his hometown.

With a dream in his heart, he was determined to make a big career, so, carrying his bags, he came to the largest city in the world: Chang'an City.

Learn divination, goods and the emperor's family.

Yuan Shoucheng made many calculations and saw that the Sui Dynasty was about to end, but for him, this was an opportunity. If he won the trust of the emperor, he could rely on his divination skills to extend the life of the Sui Dynasty for another hundred years!At that time, he was the mainstay in turning the tide.

My own feather fan and scarf are high above the sky, and when the emperor sees me, he has to bow his head in humility to pay tribute to him!
How exhilarating this must be!Men are born like this!

With such a beautiful ideal in mind, Yuan Shoucheng wanted to meet the emperor.

It's a pity that Yuan Shoucheng counted the whole world, but he couldn't figure out his own destiny. He couldn't even see the Chang'an county magistrate, and he was kicked out of the county government office as a charlatan.

Yuan Shoucheng had no choice but to accept his fate, lamenting that the destiny cannot be violated.

I also feel sorry for the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, because the last chance to save the Sui Dynasty was missed by the emperor.

Sighing is sighing, Yuan Shoucheng, who had wandered in Chang'an City for a year, suddenly found that he had no money to eat.

Only then did he return to his old business, setting up stalls around Chang'an City to tell people fortune-telling.

Yuan Shoucheng, who has been severely beaten by the society, has become more clever and smooth-talking. In addition, his calculations are accurate and he has earned a lot of money. In just half a year, he bought a second apartment with a balcony in Chang'an City. In the small attic, life is very comfortable.

Every night he would lie on a chair on the balcony, watch the sky, practice his calculations, and enjoy himself.

Unexpectedly, last night, she actually passed out.

This is the first time in Yuan Shoucheng's life.

"Wash up, have breakfast, and then go to Chenghuang Temple to set up a stall."

Yuan Shoucheng rubbed his sore neck and went downstairs slowly.

……

Outside Chang'an City God's Temple, there was a steady flow of people, and the exuberant incense was constantly curling up.

Tao Yaoyao and Jiang Yingying each held a bunch of candied haws and followed behind Zhou Yin, looking curiously at the vendors on both sides.

The street in front of the Town God's Temple can be called the commercial street of Chang'an City.

The wide streets are crowded with pedestrians, and there are various businesses on both sides.

Some sell candied haws, and some sell sugar people.

Some sell rouge and gouache, and some sell silk cloth.

Some sell furniture and equipment, and some lead camels to collect junk.

The shirtless blacksmith here is banging on the iron.

Over there, the owner of the food stall wearing a white towel is calling and drinking to greet the guests.

There are countless merchants of all kinds selling gadgets.

There is a lot of people, and it is very lively!
Of course, there are fortune tellers.

Yuan Shoucheng was a newcomer in the fortune-telling circle in Chang'an City, but because his calculations were accurate and people knew the rules, the fortune-telling circle gradually recognized him and allowed him to set up a stall at the gate of Chenghuang Street.

Of course, the location wouldn't be too good, but the huge flow of people was enough to bring him a lot of business.

After setting up his small table and bench, Yuan Shoucheng put the canvas with seven big characters of "Fortune Teller Yuan Shoucheng" beside him.

After finishing all this, Yuan Shoucheng sat on the stool, held a feather fan, and waited for the guests to come.

After a while, a young man came out of the Town God's Temple. His sad face showed that he had encountered great difficulties.

The client is here!

Yuan Shoucheng immediately shouted loudly, "You can't see clearly in the clouds and fog, and you will know nothing when you look back!"

The young man was really attracted by these words, and turned to look at Yuan Shoucheng.

Yuan Shoucheng put away his fan and said with a smile, "Brother, why don't you count it as a hexagram, maybe there will be a solution."

The young man thought for a while, and walked forward slowly, probably with the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Sitting opposite Yuan Shoucheng.

Yuan Shoucheng looked at the face of the young man in front of him. His facial features were well-balanced. He was originally a face of wealth and honor, but there was also a look of ruin on his face.

Yuan Shoucheng smiled slightly and said, "Brother, did you lose your belongings?"

Hearing this, the young man was startled, hope was rekindled from his despairing expression, he immediately grabbed Yuan Shoucheng's sleeve, and said eagerly: "Master, that's right, I did lose a large sum of money. Money is all my property, Master Wanwang saved me, helped me guide me, and retrieve my belongings, I will be very grateful!"

Yuan Shoucheng nodded, took out six copper coins, and began to sort out the hexagrams.

After a long time, Yuan Shoucheng nodded with a smile, "The thing you lost is in the Lichun Courtyard in the south of the city."

When the young man heard it, he was pleasantly surprised, stood up immediately, and said while running, "If you find it, you will definitely come back and thank Master!"

Yuan Shoucheng looked at the young man running away in surprise, he didn't chase him, and he didn't chase him.I had no choice but to pray in my heart that the young man could get back his belongings, and then send the hexagram gold up.

While Yuan Shoucheng was telling others fortunes, Zhou Yin took his two daughters into the Temple of the City God.

As soon as Zhou Yin entered the Town God's Temple, he saw Yang Chenghuang emerge from the ground respectfully, "Zhou Daxian, why do you have time to come here for inspection today?"

The people around couldn't see Yang Chenghuang, only Zhou Yin, Tao Yaoyao and Jiang Yingying could see it.

This is what Yang Chenghuang intentionally did.

"Oh, I have nothing to do, I want to pay homage to the Jade Emperor."

After Yang Chenghuang heard this, he sighed in his heart, this Zhou Daxian is worthy of being the favorite of the Jade Emperor, even in the lower realm, he can still remember to show loyalty and flatter him, it is really worth studying hard!

"That Zhou Daxian, I will take you there."

Yang Chenghuang led the way while chatting.

When Zhou Yin introduced Jiang Yingying, Yang Chenghuang hurriedly apologized to Jiang Yingying: "It turned out to be Miss Jiang. Yesterday, I blamed me for being lax, but two little ghosts sneaked out and accidentally alarmed Miss Jiang. I am really ashamed! "

Zhou Yin listened and wanted to laugh, this Yang Chenghuang deserved to be the Chang'an City God, and he spoke with such a level.
