this king; that king

The next day, everyone planned to leave in the afternoon. Wang Weifu inspected the situation of the textile industry, and chatted with the local workers for a while based on his recent experience in learning textile and embroidery.

Ye Song suddenly realized that the little flowers embroidered on the clothes he wore when he went out were made by the king himself. It turned out that he planned to learn about new industries a long time ago.

The inspection ended as early as around nine o'clock, but the king still decided to leave in the afternoon, on the grounds that "he came out to inspect in the identity of a fortune-teller, so he had to pretend to do a fortune-telling."

Ye Song also realized that he hadn't learned new spells for a long time, so he planned to follow the king to experience them.

"I've told you first, don't make trouble when I'm doing the spell." The king said while using spells to set up a tent on the street.

"What's the trouble with this? Isn't it said that many divination techniques are deceitful? Probably not many people would believe it." Ye Song shrugged and helped move the table into the tent.

"It's not absolute. After all, unknown domestic fortune-tellers are legal professions, and there are special fortune-telling qualification exams, so those who have the courage to come out to tell fortunes may not necessarily be half-baked." The king shook his head and explained, "You major in Water elementals have a set of advanced spiritual spells, which are a bit like divination, and you will have to learn them in the future."

"Does Ah Jin want to teach me how to dance the Great God?"

"Uneducated!" The king rolled his eyes and pointed to the chair in the corner, "Although there seems to be some rules in divination, saying that you can't bring idlers, but it shouldn't matter?...No, it should matter, but ...Forget it! Hold the snowball over there and sit down!"

"Gee-chi!" Snowball stretched out her little paw and applauded the king softly.

The king put on a blackout cloth and added a layer of purple tulle to increase the mysterious effect. He set up candlesticks, lit three and a half candles, and put on a wine-red cloak to wait for customers to come in.

"I'm sorry... I want to come to divination." Sure enough, after a while, a female voice came from outside the door.

Ye Song raised his head, and saw a quiet, long-haired woman holding a book, she looked very young, followed by two men of about the same age, one with short hair and one with long hair, with an expressionless expression willing.

"Please." The king didn't look at it, and didn't say anything else, "What do you want to ask?"

"Is the fortune of love... okay?"

"Of course." The king nodded, conjured a full copper basin from nowhere, and symbolically poked a few times into the water with his finger.

"Excuse me...are you going to use water divination?" the woman asked tentatively.

"Not exactly, I'm far from the kind of half-wizard mage who only knows about water elements." The king glanced at Ye Song secretly as he spoke, and the latter turned his eyes away, as if he didn't hear the king scolding him for his incompetence.

The king drew a little flame from half a candle, and saw it wobble like a spirit snake, trembling at his fingertips, and quenched into the water.Immediately, circles of ripples arose on the surface of the water, which turned out to be snow-white, like waves on the sea surface, and like a beach shimmering under the sun.

The three customers opened their eyes wide in surprise, but the water surface became more and more hazy, like a cloud of gray fog. The king asked the woman for one of her hair, and threw it in neatly.

Ye Song was fascinated by this, Xueqiu shook suddenly, which made him startled, thinking that he had pinched him, but found that it was not, Xueqiu just curled up into a ball, his watery eyes blinked once and for all.

"Girl, I can't tell you too much." The king looked up at the basin and said.

"I know, just tell me." She was a little nervous.

"You need to think carefully about your sincerity, and you also need to think clearly about what can be discarded. Keeping your heart is the most important thing. In addition, I suggest you buy a mirror and keep it with you," the king said.

The woman didn't seem to believe it, but she nodded: "Okay, thank you...how about the cost?"

"I have taken your hair." The king laughed.

The woman stood up slowly and left accompanied by two men, the long-haired man turned his head and glared at the king.

"What happened to Xueqiu just now?" Ye Song asked.

"Monsters are particularly sensitive to the fluctuations in the magic power of divination, which is why I never bring light bulbs for divination. Snowball's defense is nothing to do with it. Instead, I need its breath barrier to prevent people from feeling suspicious of me." replied the king.

"Ah Jin, can I ask a question?"

"You can speak directly."

"Sure enough, I still think that divination is not very accurate, because what you just told her seems to be ambiguous words that every fortune teller on the roadside would say. Asking her to buy a mirror seems to be just taking advantage of people's psychology, right?"

"You're only half right," said the king. "I see one of her futures, so that's all I can say."

"Then... what did you see?" Ye Song asked.

"Those three people just now." The king pointed at the door, "Long hair likes women, and women like short hair. The parents of short hair and long hair know each other, and they don't know that they are the other party's marriage target next week. Female I want to ask myself if I have a relationship with short hair, but she has a weak personality. If I give her a definite positive answer, I will take the initiative to confess my love. Short hair will be with her, but in the end I will break up with her because he likes her face , not interested in personality. Then she fell in love with long hair, but at that time she no longer believed in love, and the result was a loss for both sides. Long hair and short hair would be forced to marry, and then I have no authority to continue reading .”

"...God, that mirror?"

"It's fake, it's just something that promotes a psychological effect."

"Then you did nothing to help it!"

"That's exactly what I want to say," the king returned to the table, "You will also learn divination one day. I want you to understand that divination is not about helping others, but letting them live their own lives. Fortune tellers always have the right to peep, and the right to interfere is actually very little. You must be worthy of the remuneration paid by every guest."

"But she gave you only one hair."

"It's just a pretense, it's just a mysterious feeling. I'll let the light bulb take the corresponding money directly from her wallet, anyway, it's only a copper coin." The king said indifferently.

"Just now I said that I should be worthy of every customer, why are you stealing other people's money now?"

"That's about you, not me. I'm a profiteer. Before you can be honest with others, you have to be honest with yourself." The king rolled his eyes and began to pack up his utensils.

Ye Song stopped talking, he was thinking about the meaning of the king's words, and even began to suspect that the three people were entrusted by the king to say this truth.It's not that he has more hearts, but that he knows that the king has more hearts than anyone else.

So, who is the king going to live with?who is it?Light bulb?Own?The common people of the nameless country?

He couldn't figure it out, so he could only ask: "You set up this tent, do you only calculate the hexagram once?"

"Three counts, using a different prop each time," the king replied casually.

In fact, the king's heart exploded long ago.Did he figure it out?Probably not, he didn't think so deeply.But what would he do if he guessed it?Will you ignore yourself?Of course that would be the best, but not right now, he hasn't completed his plan yet.Besides, do you really feel the best?If it was true, I should have told him long ago——

I like you, but I am sorry for you, but I have to follow myself first.

Hypocritical!

The king gritted his teeth indifferently, and he thought of an idea, which was to pick on Ye Song's shortcomings.

Incompetent, noisy, annoying!Don't know anything and still act like you want to help people out of suffering, boring!The eyes are not big enough, the eyelashes are not long enough, and the skin care is not enough!

It's very cute to be short of roots. I am optimistic to help others every day, so I am also influenced by myself!The eyes are not big enough, but when you smile, it makes you feel like the whole world melts, but it's so gentle!

The king realized that it was his reason and his body struggling, so he shook his head irritably, and said, "I've changed my mind, pack your things, it's time to go."

"Ah...Okay." Ye Song also came back to his senses. He didn't know what he was thinking just now. When he took a closer look, he found that the snowball had already jumped to the king's shoulder.

"Master!"

The sound of light bulbs?

The king ran outside the tent, and it turned out to be a light bulb, and Morris was there.

"Didn't I tell you not to come in?" the king asked dissatisfied.

At this time, the king saw the light bulb supporting a dirty brown-haired woman to the door. The clothes on her body were made of linen and were in tatters.Her lips were pale, her face was pale, and her hair trembled slightly with tired and heavy breathing.

"What's wrong? Who is she?" Ye Song followed behind and asked.

"I don't know, she just fell here, as if she wanted to get into the tent but couldn't make it through." Morris replied.

"But we have to go, Ah Jin, do you want to send her to the relevant authorities?" Ye Song asked.

The king paused, shook his head, and said, "She can go to the town office to seek help, but she still wants to wander around and come to my tent. There must be some difficulties. Bring her in first, and give her a cup of sugar water."

"Isn't that bad...?" Light Bulb hesitated.

"What's wrong?"

"Look, there is a government mark on her arm. Although it has faded, it is still enough to show that she is a criminal and has been locked in a prison." The light bulb pointed to the purple prison mark.

"Shouldn't that send her straight to the police station?" Morris asked.

"Tie her hands and feet first, and then give her sugar water." The king didn't care, and waved his hand to the light bulb to put her on the portable bench where the guests sat, "When she wakes up, let's collect the things first alright."

Unexpectedly, less than a minute after drinking the sugar water, the woman opened her eyes as if having a nightmare, looked around in a hurry, struggled with her eyes wide open, and screamed at the king:

"Your Majesty! Is it His Majesty the King of the Nameless Country?!"

The king was taken aback, took a breath, and suddenly turned around in horror, once again confirming that the woman was indeed him, and it seemed that he was not mentally ill.

"Who... do you want to find?" The king didn't know what to ask her.

"Is it really His Majesty the King?" She confirmed again, obviously not wanting to avoid the question.

The king wanted to find an excuse, but the other party seemed to be looking for him, and he was speechless for a while because of conflicts.

"Tell me what you want first, and then I'll tell you who he is." Light bulb said seriously to the woman.

"I..." The woman swallowed, "My mother is from the Eastern Kingdom. After giving birth to me in the Wuming Kingdom, she got sick and died soon after. A family picked me up and raised me as a maid, so that I could be a maid for a lifetime. Free labor, I have never been given an ID card, nor have I been naturalized... Some time ago I heard that they wanted to sell me to the Northland army for a sum of money, so I ran out, but was caught back and almost entered After leaving the prison, I heard that no matter how difficult it is, you can go to the king, so..."

"Then how do you know where the king is?" asked the bulb.

"I heard it in the jail when Your Majesty was interrogating the bandit leader, and I knew you were in this town, so I tried to follow you out." The woman smiled weakly and said.

"Okay, I will help you." The king nodded, "But this situation is not easy to deal with. You should wash and change your clothes first, and then go on the road with us first. Are you... an omega?"

"Yes."

"Then you have to take medicine to cover up the smell," the king reached out to get out the bathtub and water, "light bulb, untie it."

"Yes..." Bulb untied the rope for her vigilantly, and the four of them went outside the tent to wait for her to freshen up.
