MTL - I Have Unparalleled Comprehension-Chapter 14 Straight to the point

  Chapter 14 Iron mouth straight off

   The smell of blood is very faint, almost inaudible.

  Xu Bai had also experienced life and death in Tiger Village, and he had a lot of lives in his hands. In addition, he had already become suspicious of Yun Xiang, and under various preparations, he smelled blood.

  In the middle of the night, a woman ran around, and when she came back, she smelled of blood. If there was anything to say, it would be a lie.

   "Guest officer, go slowly, the shop will be closed too." Yun Xiang said, not intending to continue the conversation.

  Xu Bai glanced at the dark street, then subconsciously glanced at Yunxiang's right hand.

   The progress bar rose again.

   It got a little more.

  The other party didn't want to chat, and it didn't make sense for him to stay here, so he turned and left the inn.

  Yun Xiang kept watching Xu Bai leave, and only walked into the inn when Xu Bai reached the end of the street.

   "吱—"

  The door of the inn was closed, and the street returned to tranquility.

  …

  Xu Bai walked to the corner of the alley, and instead of going home, he stood in the corner and looked at the inn with its closed door.

   Weird, so weird.

  To be honest, Xu Bai is not a nosy person.

   Logically speaking, this matter is strange, and the world is not as peaceful as he thought, so it is best to leave at this time.

  But... the progress bar is not finished yet.

  After several days of testing, and after visiting almost half of Sheng County, Xu Bai realized how harsh the things that can trigger the progress bar are.

  Currently, apart from the "Kidney Strengthening Essentials" obtained from the bookstore and the "Tu Xin Fa" from the middle-aged man, only the maple leaf tattoo on the back of Yun Xiang's hand has been found.

   "Don't waste it..." Xu Bai thought.

   "From tomorrow onwards, come to collect the wool every day."

  He glanced at the inn again, turned and left.

   As long as the progress bar is full, he will stop.

   No!

   Putting it this way, why is it a bit like a general singing an opera, with flags all over his body?

   Isn't it so unlucky?

  While walking, Xu Bai was thinking.

  The streets are dark, and the night is as dark as water.

   Except for one or two gongs, the street returned to silence, and there were two meows from time to time.

  …

  The next day.

  Xu Bai got up early, washed up, and came to the inn again.

   Still eating and drinking as usual, looking at the back of Yunxiang's hand from time to time.

  The progress bar is rising, and he is also happy, even the wine in his hand has become better.

  Yun Xiang still stood at the counter, acting as the accountant as usual.

  Plump women are full of charm, Xu Bai is not the only one who sees this inn, Yun Xiang seems to have gotten used to it, busy with the things at hand.

  I thought it would be business as usual today, but just as Xu Bai put down his wine glass, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

  There are people coming and going in the inn, and there is no reason for the sound of footsteps, but this footstep is different.

   In addition to the sound of footsteps, there is also the sound of bells shaking.

  Xu Bai turned his gaze to the door.

   I haven't seen anyone yet, but what I saw first was a long flag.

  The long flag is dilapidated, with several patches, very shabby.

  On the front of the long flag, there are four large characters embroidered.

  —The iron mouth is straight off.

  Even if it is embroidered, the handwriting is still vigorous and powerful. This handwriting alone is enough to make people look sideways.

  The long banner gradually approached, and a man wearing a tattered moon white Taoist robe came in holding a long banner.

  Yuebai Daoist Robe is not only worn out, but also has patches on it, especially the sleeves, which have been mended.

  From beginning to end, there was a sense of embarrassment.

  The man looked to be in his thirties, and he looked handsome, except for his eyes.

  From the moment he entered the door, those eyes kept looking around, and he never had a moment to rest.

   It is normal to look around at first, no matter who is in an unfamiliar environment, they will look at it subconsciously.

   But this man is different, his gaze has an uncomfortable feeling from the beginning to the end.

   It was as if he was seriously ill and ran to see a doctor, but the doctor sighed and shook his head.

   Probably that is what it means.

  Xu Bai reckoned that the fortune teller would have been beaten up if he hadn't been at the inn.

   While he was thinking about these things, the fortune teller didn't find a seat to sit down, but went directly to the counter.

  He seemed to know Yun Xiang, and the two communicated in a low voice.

  The inn was too noisy, and no one could hear what was said.

   After a while, the fortune teller left.

   Before leaving, he looked around as he did when he came in.

  When he saw Xu Bai's position, he paused slightly.

  Xu Bai noticed the gaze and frowned slightly.

  The eyes are very vivid, different from the previous ones, with surprise.

  The fortune-teller didn't leave either, holding a long banner, changing direction, and walking towards Xu Bai.

  Xu Bai drank up the wine in his glass and watched with interest.

   When the fortune teller walked in, Xu Bai heard a voice.

   "Hello, brother, I'm calling Tie Suanxian." Tie Suanxian greeted, the slightly swaying sleeve robe, and the patches were even more conspicuous.

  Xu Bai didn't speak, but looked up at Tie Suanxian with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

   "I see that there is a faint ominous omen between the eyebrows of my brother, and there may be a **** disaster recently..." Tie Suanxian sat beside him familiarly, and said to himself.

  He doesn't care whether Xu Baili understands it or not, as if everything is in order.

   "Why?" Xu Bai said.

   "It's strange to say that I have seen a lot of **** disasters, but it's strange if they are looming. It seems that they can be resolved in the next moment, but they can't be resolved. It seems that there is a lack of opportunity." Immortal Tie Suan frowned.

   "It is said that fortune tellers can solve fortunes, how can I solve them?" Xu Bai poured another glass of wine and drank it with his head raised.

  Tie Suanxian shook his head and said: "Your fate is very strange. The **** disaster is either resolved or not resolved, but you are in between. It is too strange."

   As he spoke, Tie Suanxian stared at Xu Bai's face again.

  But after looking at it for a while, I didn't see why.

   "I see you know the boss, but do you know what kind of person the boss likes?"

  At this time, Xu Bai said something abruptly.

   Chatting last night, the waiter gave him a reason instead.

  He simply plays the role of Yunxiang's suitor now, and there is a reason to dawdle the progress bar here.

  This fortune teller is very strange, he talks to Yun Xiang as soon as he comes in, it seems that he should know him.

   So he said something along the way to deepen this reason.

   Unexpectedly, Tie Suanxian was stunned when he said this sentence.

   "How would I know what kind of person the boss likes?"

   "Huh?" Xu Bai frowned and said, "Then what were you doing at the counter just now?"

   "Repay the money, I borrowed money from the boss a few days ago, and today I am paying back the money." Tie Suanxian pointed to himself and then to the counter.

  In fact, Tie Suanxian also found it strange.

   At first, he just saw that Xu Bai's face was abnormal, so he ran over to take a look.

  But Xu Bai's words confused him, and he couldn't understand it at all.

  He is a fortune teller, not a red line for people, so what's the use of asking him?

   But now, Tie Suanxian also understands.

   It turned out to be a person who admired.

   No wonder... the **** disaster appears and disappears from time to time.
