After Lei Zhenzi left, the group did not dare to stay for a long time. They rushed all the way and finally arrived at Xiqi.

Putting aside the exchange of greetings after Ji Chang's family reunited, they returned to Xiqi and rested for two days. Ji Chang immediately began to advertise for talents.

With the reputation of a virtuous prince, talents from other princely territories also came to Xiqi to recommend themselves when they heard that Ji Chang had posted a list of talents.

However, it is said that there is a small village outside Xiqi City called Xiao'an Village. There is a fortune-telling parlor outside the village. The owner of the parlour, who calls himself Fei Xiong layman, gives fortune-telling fortunes to people every day.

Over the past few years, he has accumulated quite a reputation.

It's just because since the fortune-telling parlor opened, every fortune teller will have bad luck, and nine out of ten will die soon. Therefore, as time goes by, no one dares to tell fortunes anymore.

After all, who would do the math even if they knew the result was not good?

Passers-by also walked around the fortune-telling parlor, for fear of being exposed to bad luck.

It's just that the fortune-telling parlor is located on the only way into the village. If one bypasses the fortune-telling parlor, it will be inconvenient. The head of Xiao'an Village did not dare to offend Feixiong, a layman with strange tricks, so he stepped in to build a new road into the village.

As time goes by, people rarely see people walking on the original road.

On this day, a young man was walking on the way to the fortune-telling parlor.

The young man held a hatchet and carried a basket on his back. In the basket were some daily necessities that he had just bought. He walked into the fortune-telling parlor with a face of joy:"Master, that's great. Then Xibohou has started to advertise for talents. With Master's methods, he will definitely be able to find an official position when he comes back.、"

"oh!"The Master Wu Ji said was secretly happy when he heard this, but on the surface he replied in a neutral tone.

This Flying Bear layman is Jiang Ziya who escaped from Chaoge City.

He took Ma's family from Chaoge with him. After running out, Jiang Ziya didn't even dare to go back to Song Yiren, and fled with Ma family all the way. After several months, when he stopped escaping, he found that he had arrived at the border of Xiqi. So he relied on his"divination fortune telling""" method, Jiang Ziya has temporarily settled down.

Wu Ji is an apprentice he has taken in in the past few years since he came to Xiqi, and he is also the only one who is not considered dead. In the early years, he was a woodcutter on the mountain, and one day he happened to meet Jiang Ziya. I went up to the mountain to fish when I had nothing to do. I saw Jiang Ziya fishing with a straight hook and chatted a few words. Jiang Ziya didn't take it seriously at first, but he didn't want to bring him a fishhook and fish when Bukit went up the mountain to chop firewood the next day. Son.

When Jiang Ziya saw that this man was sharp-tongued and kind-hearted, he developed a love for talents and helped Wu Ji make a fortune. He said that Wu Ji would become a murderer in the near future and asked Wu Ji to be careful.

Wu Ji became angry at the moment, thinking that Jiang Ziya took revenge, cursed himself, and left angrily.

As a result, he accidentally killed a guard guard at the city gate two days later. Wuji panicked.

Fortunately, Minister Xiqi left that day. Yi Sheng was also there. Outside the south gate, he saw a woodcutter who had beaten the gate army to death. He immediately sent someone to bring it and asked,"What's the name of that woodcutter?" Why beat the king to death? Wuji heard the words and quickly replied:"The villain is called Wuji. Because he saw the king coming and the road was narrow, he exchanged the firewood on his shoulder and accidentally injured the king."

Upon hearing this, San Yisheng immediately judged:"Since Wu Ji killed the king, he should be spared his life."

When Wu Ji heard this, he burst into tears and said,"The villain mistakenly beat the king to death, and he deserves to pay for it with his life." Unfortunately, the villain has a mother who is more than seventy years old, and has no brothers. It is expected that after the villain's death, the mother will not survive. I beg the prince to let the villain go home for three days. After the villain has settled his mother, he will return home. Come and take the blame!"

San Yisheng nodded when he heard this and said:"In that case, I will let you go back to resettle your mother. Three days later, you will go to the government office in person to accept the crime and rectify the national law."Then he ordered his entourage to give Wu Ji silver coins to help him settle his mother.

Wu Ji kowtowed quickly after hearing this:"Thank you, sir, for your great kindness. Then he rushed home, knelt down and worshiped his mother:"Mother!" If the child doesn't take the exam, he can no longer serve his mother. If my mother is tired, you will feed me in vain." Then he told his mother what had just happened.

When Wu's mother heard that her son had been sued for his life, she was so frightened that she pulled Wu Ji and choked with grief. She sighed to the sky:"My son has been loyal for half his life and filial to his mother. How can it be that? No one can save my son's life. Wu

Ji's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said:"My child was walking to Panxi yesterday carrying firewood. He saw an old man fishing with a pole in his hand and a needle tied to the line, fishing there." The child asked him why he didn't turn around and fish with scented bait? The old man said:"I would rather take it from the straight line than to seek it from the curved line; if it is not for brocade scales, I will only catch princes." The boy laughed at him. You want to be a prince, but you don't look like a prince. You look like a living monkey. Today I was kind enough to pass by the creek with a hook and bait for him. The old man looked at the child and said,"I think your face is not good either." 'I asked him what's wrong with me? The old man said to the child:"The left eye is blue and the right eye is red. Someone will be killed today.""The child really beat the king to death today. The old man knew things like a god and thought he could save the child's life."

Upon hearing this, Wu's mother hurriedly asked:"What's the old man's name?"

Wu Ji hurriedly replied:" The old man's surname is Jiang Shang, and his Taoist name is Fei Xiong."

Upon hearing this, Wu Mu hurriedly said:"This man has a Taoist name and is good at reading faces. He must be an expert hermit. My son hurriedly went to ask for help, and he will definitely escape with his life.."

After hearing this, Wu Ji felt that it was reasonable and hurried to Panxi for help. Jiang Ziya relied on yellow cloth to tell fortunes. He didn't know how to escape. Wu Ji was so anxious that he had to ask Wu Ji to disguise himself and fake his own death.

However, due to the fate of heaven, Wu Ji was a person with a surname on the list of gods, and he was not supposed to die at this time, so he deceived the soldiers who came to check. Wu Ji didn't know the reason, and thought it was Jiang Ziya who had great supernatural powers.

Then he became a disciple of Jiang Ziya. Although he didn't learn anything, he often visited Jiang Ziya and provided food and drink for Jiang Ziya and Ma.

……

"Master, you have unparalleled skills in fortune-telling and fortune-telling. Why don't you go down the mountain to assist Xibohou in seeking wealth?"Wu Ji regretfully said to Jiang Ziya

"It doesn't matter, when I fish, I always take the bait to those who are willing. If Xibohou is really thirsty for talents, he will naturally come to me."Jiang Ziya said pretending to be profound.

Although he said this, he was secretly complaining in his heart.

It's not that I don't want to go, but I am a fortune teller and I can't predict anything good.

If I go to seek refuge, it will take two and a half days. Even if Xi Bohou is dead, can I still live?
