After Yixiu disappeared with Qiqi, Lu Xiujin and Augustine followed closely behind and left the space.

They returned to Auston's room, looked at each other silently, and stared at each other for a long time before Lu Xiujin said dryly and resolutely: "Augustine, since you possess Auston, you will be harmed by your own soul. If it has a bad influence, then I should do it myself."

Hearing this, Augustine was unmoved. He didn't even bother to raise his head to look at Lu Xiujin again, but asked lightly, "Are you coming? I can't even control it. Do you think you can?"

Lu Xiujin blushed all of a sudden, and he stammered, "I didn't mean that, I just thought it was too dangerous to let you..."

"Don't make decisions for me." Augustine impatiently considered Lu Xiujin's words, and seeing his bewildered look, he sighed and said, "I don't mind." He said flatly: " You can’t avoid it just because it’s in danger, right? And if I don’t come, and your strength is not enough, how can you pass through this world?”

Lu Xiujin opened his mouth and lowered his head embarrassingly.He was silent for a long time before whispering: "Then, when I am strong enough, let me do it myself."

Augustine smiled and patted his head: "Okay."

In the following time, Lu Xiujin's cultivation of magic was indeed much more diligent than before.When Augustine woke up in the middle of the night, he could always see Lu Xiujin sitting alone in the room, honing his magic with a serious face.

During this time, Arnold has not been idle.He led a group of people he had cultivated privately for many years, and Augustine ran around in the capital, hoping to find the person who kidnapped Ophelia, but unfortunately, Ophelia seems to be no longer in Kyoto, even though They searched the entire capital with people, but did not find any trace of Ophelia.

Anxious and angry, Arnold ignored Augustine's obstruction for a while, and determinedly decided to summon his companion beast again, using the companion beast's ability to find Ophelia.

However, this search was in vain.This time, Arnold was not even able to successfully summon his companion beast due to being injured in the previous battle.

Faced with this situation, Arnold's face darkened instantly.He stared at Augustine for a long time in a daze, and saw that Lu Xiujin beside him was a little hairy, so he moved his eyes to the side, and said lightly: "Then let's go to the fortune teller in the city." He paused, and added: "The one who lives in Flower Street."

The famous fortune teller in Huajie has always been mysterious. No one has ever known her name, and she has never shown her true face to others.However, probably because of her mystery, this fortuneteller became more famous. Even Arnold, who stayed in the church all year round and didn't pay much attention to these things, knew about this person.

The fortune teller lived in the depths of Flower Street. Arnold took a map he got from nowhere, led Augustine and Lu Xiujin around seven times, and walked for a long time before finding her residence.

Arnold took a step forward and knocked lightly on the door of the fortune teller's residence. The door opened in response, and a clear female voice came from inside: "Come here, is the one from the church, and Your Excellency the Prince?"

"Yes," Arnold's answer was neither humble nor overbearing, even if he asked for help from others: "Arnold Rudolph of the church, and Auston Lewis of the royal family."

The female voice inside the door was silent for two seconds, then asked again: "Is there no third person?"

Hearing this, Arnold gave Augustine a meaningful look, and replied solemnly: "Of course not, it's just the two of us."

"Okay," the fortune teller seemed to understand what was happening immediately, she sneered, and stopped dwelling on the question, and instead made her own request: "I know why you came this time, but you also understand my rules... ..." She deliberately prolonged her voice, and seeing that Arnold still didn't answer, she continued to say with a smile: "What you want to know, it is still difficult to divination," she said with a faint smile: "I'll just say it straight Well, I need the longbow your parents left you."

As soon as the fortune teller's request was made, Augustine clearly felt Arnold's body stiffen.

As if seeing Augustine's confusion, Lu Xiujin hurriedly leaned into his ear, holding the document in his hand, and explained to him: "Arnold's parents passed away, and the longbow was handed over to him by his father before his death. The thing in his hand." He said, glanced at the information again, and then continued: "Over the years, Arnold has cherished this longbow so much that even his beloved sister accidentally took this bow He threw it on the ground, was scolded by him, and was asked to think behind closed doors."

Augustine nodded knowingly.He turned his gaze to Arnold, thinking that even if he wouldn't refuse, he would hesitate a little bit, but he didn't expect that he would react a bit when he first heard the request, and immediately replied: "Okay."

Soon, Augustine took the longbow hanging in the study to Huajie as Arnold said.

This longbow was as tall as a person, and the bow was pure black, with intricate patterns engraved on it, and a row of characters were written inside, probably the characters of this world. Lu Xiujin studied for a long time but couldn't figure out what was written.

After handing the bow to the fortune-teller, the fortune-teller was silent for a long time. After carefully looking at the bow up and down, after a while, she said with a sigh: "It's really... very careful. It’s a bow.” She handed the longbow to the servant, and after the servant set it up, she looked at Arnold and said to him, “Please wait here, divination also takes time.”

Arnold nodded in agreement.He sat in the living room in an orderly manner. Lu Xiujin looked around and saw that Augustine was also sitting in the living room. He endured and endured, but still couldn't hold back, and said to Augustine: "I want to follow..." He blinked Eyes, looking at Augustine, asked: "Can you?"

Augustine smiled inaudibly, nodded slightly to Lu Xiujin, and watched with a smile as he carefully followed the fortune-teller's route up to the second floor, and suddenly heard Arnold next to him ask, "Auston," he said. Turning his head, he looked at Augustine seriously and meaningfully: "Tell me, who is the third person mentioned by the fortune teller?"

Augustine's face remained unchanged: "Even if you ask me, I don't know."

The waves downstairs were turbulent, so Lu Xiujin, who followed the fortune teller to the second floor, naturally didn't know about it.He stood next to the fortune teller, watching the fortune teller take out props one by one from the drawer on the table, constantly changing the positions of props in his hands, and kept chanting something.It's just that he listened for a long time, but couldn't figure out why. Lu Xiujin curled his lips. Just as he was about to leave, he saw the fortune teller standing up.

She thought about the direction Lu Xiujin was in and smiled slightly.

This smile always makes Lu Xiujin's heart inexplicably terrified.He froze, watching the fortune teller laughing and walking away, he was stunned for a moment before hurriedly chasing after him.As soon as he walked downstairs, he saw the fortune teller standing in front of Arnold, holding a heavy book in his hand, and said, "I know you are still troubled by something, but," the fortune teller Looking at Arnold, he said solemnly: "What you have been pursuing and what you want to know will gradually surface in front of you in the end."

……

The result of this divination is the same as not having it.

Lu Xiujin cursed in his heart, he raised his head to look at Arnold, but was surprised to find that Arnold actually looked thoughtful.He stood up, and was about to thank the fortune teller and take his leave, but saw the fortune teller raised his head slightly, revealing her white forehead that had been hidden under the cloak.

The fortune-teller snorted mysteriously, looked at Augustine and said: "You, you," her meaningful eyes swept across Lu Xiujin's side, and then immediately said: "Different words from different people, there are Whether it’s true or not. As for whether it’s true or not…you need to judge for yourself.”

After finishing speaking, she smiled slightly, and put on a gesture of seeing off the guests: "This is my advice to you because I have a destiny with you. The result of today's divination is like this. You can go home and think about it."

Lu Xiujin was completely confused by the fortune teller's unclear answer.Not to mention the "advice to myself and Augustine" from the fortune-teller later on, together with her glance upstairs, it made Lu Xiujin realize with horror: its existence, shouldn't it be exposed?

This is not impossible: after all, Augustine in the first world not only saw Lu Xiujin, but also stretched out his hand to directly drag him out of the space.

Because of this worry, Lu Xiujin seemed particularly quiet on the way back.Even when he returned to Oston's room, he still frowned and looked worried.It wasn't until Augustine asked him what was the matter suspiciously that Lu Xiujin hurriedly came back to his senses, and responded perfunctorily: "Well... I was thinking, didn't Arnold value that longbow very much? He didn't feel reluctant to give it away at all. And nostalgia?"

Augustine sneered, and said casually: "What is there to be reluctant to part with?" He kept playing with the exquisitely crafted puppet on Auston's bedside, and said, "No matter how much you are reluctant to part with, it's just a dead thing. How can anyone compare to a living person?"

Augustine lowered his eyebrows, stared at the puppet in his hand seriously, and continued: "Even if the things left by the deceased are really lost, the memories of him and you cannot be erased without one thing."

"However, once the living people are gone, it is really gone."

The author has something to say:

Today... No, it should be yesterday. There are a lot of things, and I didn't catch up.This must be the last time, sorry orz
