There was only one table on the stall. On the table, there was a bamboo tube filled with lots of signatures. There wasn't even a sign. It was too simple.
Perhaps it was because his attitude and arrangement was different from the red flames elsewhere, but in front of him, it was cold and cheerless. There were no guests.
Even as the three of them approached, he slept soundly, oblivious to the presence of business.
Mo Nuan smiled at Lu Chen. It was really the first time seeing such a cold and aloof person.
Lu Zi Tong waited for a while, then lost her patience, she knocked on the table in dissatisfaction and said: "Old grandpa, if you want to sleep, you can go home and sleep, why are you dozing off here?"
Hearing this, the old man lifted his eyelids, snorted coldly, and looked at Lu Zi Tong with dissatisfaction. His pair of eyes were as sharp as a mountain, "I feel that sleeping here is better than sleeping at home, it's not good. Why do you care so much, little girl?"
After the old man finished speaking, he closed his eyes, laid down on the chair and fell asleep again, even snoring softly, as if he was doing it on purpose for Lu Zi Tong to see.
Lu Zi Tong was so angry that he could not speak for a moment, and only said after two or three seconds: "We want to calculate our divination."
"Draw it yourself. Call me when you're done." The old man said snappily.
Lu Zi Tong was so angry that he almost died, but this attitude made her want to know what abilities the old man had. He angrily grabbed her straw stick and placed it in front of Mo Nuan, "Pretending to be a powerful master, sister-in-law, you smoke one."
Mo Nuan did not believe that this was all a joke, she only took it as a casual smoke. Just as Lu Zi Tong was about to hand it over to him, the old man who was sleeping spoke again, "If you're asking about marriage, both husband and wife only need one person to draw it."
Lu Chen's hand that was just about to draw stopped. Lu Zi Tong glared at the old man who was sleeping, and smashed the bamboo tube onto the table, producing a loud noise.
Mo Nuan opened up the signature in her hand and saw that it read: Destroyed by fate.
Unlike the other obscure signatures he had seen, the one he had written was very simple.
Lu Chen could not help but stick her head out to look, after looking at the words, she frowned, this was not a difficult phrase to understand, most people described how people's fates were close to each other, then slowly drifted apart, hinting at the fickleness of the world.
Mo Nuan's face did not look good either, she did not know how she managed to get such a draw.
Lu Chen held tightly onto Mo Nuan's hand and comforted her, "There's no need to believe it is real, it's not a big deal."
Mo Nuan gently nodded as she consoled herself in her heart, but her emotions were still affected a little.
Lu Zi Tong and the others had odd expressions on their faces, as they directly snatched the bamboo sticks from Mo Nuan's hands. Looking at the old man who was still sleeping, their faces were filled with unhappiness, and they knocked on the table, "Hurry up and get up, what nonsense is this supposed to be talking about?"
"This young lady is so impetuous at such a young age, you should be careful not to get married."
After the old man finished speaking, he put his feet down from the table and sat up, then said to Lu Zi Tong: "Hand over the lot."
Lu Zi Tong glared at him, "Think carefully, don't speak nonsense."
The old man still gave a cold snort, he took the bamboo stick and glanced at it, his eyes flashed a little, then raised his head and looked at Lu Zi Tong, "You drew it?"
"Didn't you not fall asleep? Why didn't you hear our conversation? This isn't me, but my sister-in-law." Lu Zi Tong pointed to Mo Nuan.
The old man looked in Mo Nuan's direction. Without saying anything, he said to Lu Chen, "Go and smoke another cigarette."
Lu Zi Tong was truly speechless, she had already determined that they had met a charlatan, "What do you mean just give it a try, what are you saying, do you think it's possible to give it a try? Didn't you just say that you only need to smoke one when asking for marriage?"
Lu Chen didn't know what this old man wanted to do either, but he still smoked a cigarette following his orders.
Compared to Mo Nuan's signature, it was much better. The old man took it and read it out loud together, "Destiny is destined, and finally complete."
The moment he said it, Lu Chen's and Mo Nuan's eyes lit up at the same time. The moment the two lots connected, the meaning was completely different.
Mo Nuan smirked, "Master, how do you intend to solve this?"
The old man looked deeply at Mo Nuan, and said with a straight face: "Don't joke with this old man, you look like a person who had already read a book. There's no reason why you wouldn't understand such a simple word.
Mo Nuan choked, then asked: "Master has misunderstood my wife, we do not know much about the Buddha family, and we are worried that it might lead to death, thus we patiently asked master about it."
The old man nodded, "Yes, your attitude is good, but it's literal. There's no other meaning to it. The two of you were a little bit off in the past, but it's all over now."
and Lu Chen looked at each other and revealed a relieved smile. Regardless of whether they believed it or not, it was still much better than that signature.
Lu Zi Tong always thought that the old man was a liar, and asked again, "Then do you know of any happy events recently between my brother and my sister-in-law?"
"Since little miss thinks that I'm a swindler, why do you keep asking me all the time? Even a fool would know that they must be happy, there's no need to ask such things."
Mo Nuan laughed. It was not hard to guess at the thoughts of this young couple. There were only two possibilities, they were begging their son to marry and be happy.
Lu Zi Tong's heart was filled with anger, she also drew a lot, it was also a simple phrase, everything was up to fate.
The old man took it and looked at her face. He asked, "Do you understand?"
Lu Zi Tong curled her lips, "If it really means that, of course I understand."
The old man nodded, and did not speak further. Lu Zi Tong could not help but ask: "Could it be that telling me that this is also literal, and has no other meaning? All of these are principles that can be applied to the entire world. It doesn't matter who it is placed on top of, you are just playing with me? "
"This old man isn't in the mood to tease you. Hurry up and go, don't wander in front of me. I get annoyed whenever I see you."
After saying that, just like before, he lied down on the chair and slept. Lu Zi Tong was so angry that she almost jumped to her feet.
Mo Nuan gave her a comforting look, signalling her to calm down. Lu Zi Tong took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, not saying another word.
Lu Chen took out her leather armor, preparing to take out some money, but the old man who was sleeping started to chase him away, "I'm not doing business, I just came here to play around.
No money? Lu Zi Tong spat out a few words, "It's weird, sister-in-law, brother, let's go."
Lu Chen did not speak anymore, and pulled Mo Nuan away.
After walking far away, Mo Nuan couldn't help but say: "She's an interesting old man, no wonder she kept sleeping. It turns out that it's not for the money."
