Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters
#555 - Unreliable fortune telling
After she left, among the passersby, some cast covetous glances at the tattered kitchen knife.
The fact that she could produce so many tokens from great clans meant her identity was certainly extraordinary.
The kitchen knife she left behind, though appearing worn and damaged, was definitely no ordinary object.
Harboring such thoughts, someone stealthily observed the surroundings, pretending to casually approach Shen Lin's stall.
These actions, naturally, were seen clearly by some observant individuals.
"There really are fools."
"Shhh... keep quiet, just watch the show."
"That knife... heh heh."
The man's supposedly discreet actions were incredibly obvious to some who were paying attention.
However, these people seemed to recognize the origin of the knife; although equally envious, they did not take action.
"Ah!!!"
Just then, the fellow who had harbored wicked thoughts had already touched the kitchen knife.
Immediately, he let out a miserable scream.
His arm, originally covered in black scales, was severed at the shoulder, bleeding profusely.
He ran away screaming in pain, his eyes filled with terror, not even caring about his severed arm.
Among the nearby people, those who were originally hesitant were instantly startled by this scene.
"Hahaha, a knife bestowed by the Slaughtering Saint, how could it be so easily obtained."
"Indeed, that person from before clearly made arrangements on this knife. Anyone who touches it, except for the designated person, will be counterattacked by the knife."
"The Slaughtering Saint's knife... If this thing is activated, anyone below the Saint Realm will be instantly killed. Even ordinary Saints would probably be seriously injured, right?"
"That's for sure. After all, the Slaughtering Saint is known as the most murderous among the Saints. However, the greatest use of this knife isn't for chopping people. Holding this knife allows you to ask the Slaughtering Saint to do something within his power. That's a promise from a top-tier Saint!"
"Speaking of which, what exactly is the background of this fortune teller? Why did that person just now entrust such a valuable item to him?"
Amidst the surrounding people's discussions, they finally talked about Shen Lin.
These people were knowledgeable and had long recognized the origin of the knife through the character 'Slaughter' on the knife handle.
Therefore, although Shen Lin's stall was currently unattended, they didn't think they could get their hands on the knife.
What puzzled them was, how could that young lady so easily leave such a valuable item at Shen Lin's stall?
At this moment, someone suddenly said, "Is it possible that this fortune teller's predictions are very accurate?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately felt that it was very likely.
After all, the value of a prediction is not fixed.
For some people, it might just be one or two spirit crystals.
But for some people, it is a favor worth repaying even at the cost of their lives.
However, all of this has one prerequisite.
That is, the prediction must be accurate!
Thinking of this, those passersby who were originally preparing to leave suddenly stopped.
They all came to Shen Lin's stall and lined up.
Who doesn't have something they want to know?
By the time evening arrived, Shen Lin returned with a yawn and was immediately stunned.
He looked at the dozen or so people lined up in front of his stall, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Only one business came to his door in the morning, how could there be a line in the afternoon?
Shaking his head in confusion, Shen Lin returned to the stall, looked at the extra kitchen knife on the stall, and the severed arm with dried blood beside it, and frowned.
He did know the origin of this kitchen knife.
It was probably a gift from the person who told fortunes in the morning.
At that time, when he observed the other party through the Intercepting Heaven Dao Principles, he discovered that the other party's Dao Principle fluctuations were intense, clearly encountering a life-or-death crisis.
Shen Lin observed for a long time before finally seeing a Intercepting Heaven Dao Principle.
The Intercepting Heaven Dao Principle represents a path to survival. Generally, when people do not encounter a life-or-death crisis, their own Dao Principles and surrounding Dao Principles influence each other, and many Intercepting Heaven Dao Principles will appear.
The fewer Intercepting Heaven Dao Principles that appear, the more intense the crisis the other party is facing.
That person this morning, Shen Lin observed for so long before discovering a Intercepting Heaven Dao Principle, it could almost be said that half a foot had already stepped into the underworld.
He helped the other party figure out a way to survive, so this little thank-you gift was not surprising.
Casually putting away the kitchen knife, Shen Lin sat behind the stall and started working.
"What do you want me to predict?"
"That... I want to predict my marriage..."
"Do you have money?"
"Uh... it's okay..."
"Then walk east for an hour, and you'll find it."
"Really?"
"Can I still lie to you? Go, go, go, next!"
At the beginning, Shen Lin encountered a problem.
Through the changes in the Intercepting Heaven Dao Principles, he could calculate how the other party could resolve a life-or-death crisis.
But how could Shen Lin calculate something like marriage?
He could only casually spout a few words and point the other party in the direction of Gentle Valley.
Anyway, isn't a marriage bought with money still a marriage?
And the next one was in line with Shen Lin's specialty.
"I met the love of my life on this Drifting Leaf Sailboat. Tomorrow is the tenth anniversary of our meeting. Please help me calculate what gift she wants to receive..."
This was a beastman with a bull's head.
However, the other party, who was originally burly and whose physical strength could rank in the middle among the myriad races of the Chaos Sea, was now thin, pale, and even his two horns were cracked.
Shen Lin was not in a hurry to answer, but carefully looked at the other party for a long time.
He even spent more time than he did this morning.
When the other party finally became a little impatient, Shen Lin saw a fleeting Intercepting Heaven Dao Principle suddenly appear around the other party.
Good fellow, this brother is really on the verge of death.
Shen Lin felt that the other party's life-or-death crisis might be in the next two days.
At this critical moment, he was still thinking about celebrating his wife's anniversary...
Tsk tsk.
Shen Lin's eyes flickered, and he pointed to the north and said, "Three hours later, walk three thousand miles in that direction, and then knock on the second broken tree you encounter."
"One long, three short, don't forget this rhythm."
Although the bull-headed man didn't understand why Shen Lin didn't directly tell him the answer but instead asked him to go around in such a circle.
But after thinking for a moment, he still nodded and left.
"Next!"
Shen Lin continued to tell fortunes.
And as he continued, most of the fortune tellers felt that something was wrong.
How did it feel that this guy was a bit unreliable?
Because the things Shen Lin calculated later were completely irrelevant.
People wanted you to calculate how their luck would be tonight, but you told them to go to Gentle Valley tonight.
People asked how to break through the bottleneck in their cultivation, but you still told them to go to Gentle Valley.
What, are you sent by Gentle Valley to solicit business?
