If you don't count, you will die

After the silence, there was a gust of wind, and the canopy of the trees was rustling. The shops on both sides kept screaming, and they kept rescuing the small objects that were blown away from their shops.The dust blown up by the strong wind covered his face, Mo Mo raised his sleeve to cover it, and then with a bang, the tattered fortune-telling banner fell to the ground and was covered in dust.

When the wind gradually stopped, there was no one in front of Shen Mo, only a silver leaf carved halfway into the table was left on the table, reflecting the sporadic sunlight and flickering slightly.

Shen Mo stretched out his hand and pulled out the silver leaf with a little force. The silver leaf was extremely lifelike, thin and delicate, and the veins on the leaf were clearly discernible. Ordinary wealthy businessmen did not have the time to get such a delicate silver leaf.There is no need to worry about temporary food and clothing, but a familiar picture appeared in my mind, "If you are a king, the fate of the country will be subjugated-please explain the hexagram", so in the end, it was another useless effort.

Except for these two unsolvable businesses, no one else came to the silent fortune-telling booth until sunset, and silently closed the stall, leaving the broken table behind, and left slowly with only the fortune-telling flag on his shoulders, heading outside the city.

Zhantian Kingdom is a country that doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas. It's not that the people don't believe in it, but that the current emperor doesn't believe in it, and there is no national teacher in the court.

It is rumored that there used to be a national teacher in Zhantian Kingdom, but that national teacher was daring and committed a felony.

It is said that on the first day of the current emperor's ascension to the throne, there was a vision from the sky, and the dog eclipsed the sun. The national teacher ran up and down madly, shouting "a bad omen from the sky, the emperor has lost his virtue, and the world is in chaos", and then he was executed by the emperor , peeled and cramped, the intact human skin dangled in the Jiuzhong City Gate for seven days, until it was rotten, it was picked off and thrown in the wilderness, where wild animals gnawed.

Since then, Zhantian Kingdom has no national teacher, and Jiuzhong has no divination operator.

Therefore, although the arrival of silence is curious, few bold people go up to make a divination. The king's heart is unpredictable.

The divination old man and the man named Lin Mu are both different numbers.

According to what Mo Mo learned in the past few days, Zhantian Kingdom is the largest country in the world, with a vast land and rich resources, and prosperity, and the capital of this country, Jiuchong, is at the foot of the emperor, and it is even more law and order, rich and healthy. Mo Mo's tattered table was thrown on the corner of the street Not to mention that no one is willing to pick it up, but people probably dislike it as a hindrance. Besides, don’t look at the broken and decayed table. If someone has nothing to do and picks it up and uses it as firewood. It's really not worth the candle to be charged with theft.

Jiuzhong has good law and order, not only because it is the capital of the country, but also because the criminal law of the Zhantian Kingdom is extremely severe, and it is a country with heavy punishments. It is not the largest country in the world, nor is it considered a powerful country, nor is it rich. Today's emperor will wash the court with blood when he ascends the throne, and all rebels and rebels will be wiped out. The world, five years of war, led the army to conquer, although it has conquered thousands of miles, the treasury was exhausted early, causing the people in the war to live in poverty, the people complained, and many rebels sprung up again, just as the people and the court were in panic When uneasy, the emperor issued a decree to cease the war.

Like a slap in the face, during the two years of the truce, the current emperor has reformed legislation several times, introduced the old and brought forth the new, and dragged the dying Kingdom of Zhantian out of the mud. In just two short years, it has reached its present prosperity. Ankang, let those complaints disappear completely.

And looking at Jiuzhong today, if the harsh and terrifying criminal laws were not still there, the people would almost forget how cruel and tyrannical the emperor of Zhantian Kingdom was.

There are three major taboos about the emperor in this battle heaven.

First, the identity of the current emperor.

The identity of the current emperor is a mystery. According to rumors, he is not the orthodox prince, nor is he a member of the rebel army. Throne of blood.In private, there were also rumors that this emperor was actually a prince who was not valued by the previous emperor, who was sent to other countries as a proton when he was young, and it was also said that he was the son of a certain general who rebelled against the emperor and won the throne.In private, there were different opinions, but on the surface, everyone tacitly kept silent.

Second, the name of the current emperor.

Now that his identity has become a mystery, his name is also a mystery. No one knows his real name. Only when the emperor ascended the throne, he called himself Zhan.

Third, the current emperor is disabled.

When Dijun Zhan appeared, he was sitting on a wheeled cart, his left leg was empty from the knee down, even so, his kung fu and body skills were extremely good, it seemed that the missing half leg had no effect on Dijun Zhan .You know, it was this crippled emperor who finally won the throne after bloodbathing the court, led elite soldiers to fight for five years, and won the title of the world's most powerful country Zhantian.

Mo Mo spent the past few days staying in a ruined temple outside the city. The ruined temple was built at some time, and there was only a dilapidated and peeling Buddha statue inside, but it was a place that could keep out the wind and rain. residence.

Walking to the front of the temple, there was a silent pause, there were people in the temple.

At this time, the sky was dark, and an old man in the temple bowed and bowed with a hunched figure, and he was actually praying to the Buddha statue.

Zhan Tianguo doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, this dilapidated temple has been abandoned for a long time, it's really strange that someone came to worship at nightfall.

The old man noticed someone behind him, turned his head suddenly, and was stunned when he saw the silence.

"Young man?"

Silence was also taken aback, but this old man was someone who had done divination with him during the day.

The old man looked at Shen Mo's eyes covered with black cloth but moved swiftly. It was obviously not an eye disease. Except for the initial moment of stupefaction, he didn't talk too much.

Shen Mo ignored him as if he was nothing, went to a pile of straw scattered in the corner and lay down with his back to him. Seeing this, the old man turned around, continued to silently bow to the Buddha statue, and then walked in front of Shen Mo Bending down to put down something, he left the ruined temple.

When the sound of the old man's footsteps faded away, he turned over silently, and saw clearly what was in front of him, which was a piece of broken silver the size of a fingertip.

Leaving this piece of silver is because of kindness?

He picked up the broken silver with two fingers, put it on his nose and sniffed it lightly, and after a while, he stuffed it casually into his waist.

At si o'clock the next day, Mo Mo slowly got up, went to the small river to wash up briefly, then slowly walked to the corner of the market with the fortune-telling flag on his shoulders, and continued to set up his fortune-telling booth. Today is the fourth day, and his birthday There are three days left.

When we arrived at the market, we found that the market is crowded with people today, twice as many as other times, but it is extremely quiet. The shops on both sides are neatly organized. Passers-by want to walk on their toes without making any noise. The uncle who has always opened and closed is also quiet.

But for a moment, only three bells were heard, melodious and crisp, the sound spread far away, and swayed away.

Then, a deep voice with strong inner strength came from afar.

"The emperor's tour of the city——"

After the words fell, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and the lingering sound was melodious. In the distance, a neat team was moving forward slowly. All the people stopped their movements and stood quietly on both sides, watching the front quietly.

In front of the queue are guards riding tall horses and holding heavy soldiers, accompanied by beautiful and fragrant musicians on both sides, and among them are embroidered and carved Luan chariots, with veils fluttering and swaying slightly with the wind.

As the luan chariot moved forward, the people on both sides knelt down one after another, bowed their heads and silenced their voices, very respectful.

When the convoy slowly approached, Uncle Baozipu immediately knelt down, while Shen Mo was still sitting behind his tattered table, looking up through the fluttering veil and looking into the car.

The veil brushed past, and only a faint glimpse of the cold and hard corner of the mandible under the dark and treacherous half mask.

At this time, the uncle next door came kneeling, and yanked Shen Mo hard, forcefully pulling him off the seat, and fell to his knees on the ground.

Kneeling silently, his gaze drooped, and he saw a brocade gold-patterned boot wrapped around a straight and powerful calf on the luancart in front of him, but there was only one.

The movement on Silence's side did not attract the attention of anyone in the team. It seemed that in the eyes of this group of people, the two of them were nothing more than ants, not worth mentioning.

As the Luan team continued to move forward, what fell behind the last few horses in the team appeared.

Dust was flying under the horse's hooves, and the few objects that were constantly turning and rubbing on the ground were dripping with bloody red liquid, and the stench was suffocating, which was in sharp contrast to the fragrance in front of the team.

It's a few people who don't know whether they are dead or alive.

He bowed his head silently, staring at the people who were slowly being dragged away in front of him. Most of them were already dead and turned into dilapidated corpses. Layer thin skin connection.

And the one who fell at the end was actually a living person.

Although his whole face was rotted for some reason, his eyes were still amazingly bright. He held the rope around his neck with both hands, and struggled to maintain the last bit of breathing space. The meat and bone dregs seemed to be eaten by some wild beast, and they had little to live on.

Seeing that Shen Mo didn't bow his head like the others, this person immediately opened his mouth and yelled a few times, let go of his hands holding the rope, waved towards Shen Mo and then hung down.The uncle who was kneeling next to him was trembling, he didn't dare to raise his head when he heard the voice, and he didn't know what was happening in front of him.

Silence could see clearly that there was no tongue in that mouth, and he lost his breath soon after he let go of his hands holding the rope around his neck.

The team walked far away, leaving bloodstains all over the place. The bloodstains were stained with mud and condensed into lumps. Silence slowly stretched out his hand, pulled out something from the blood mud, and hid it in his sleeve.

Not far away, the emperor of Zhantian Kingdom with a black mask on his face in the luan chariot turned his head slightly, and the corners of his hooked lips curved almost invisibly.

It wasn't until the team disappeared that the people around stood up one after another, and the market gradually became lively again, gathering in twos and threes, pointing to the bloody mud and internal organs in the middle of the road to discuss and tremble.

The uncle at the steamed stuffed bun shop next door started tinkering with his shop again, squinting at the silence along the way, dissatisfied with his words.

"You boy! I don't know what's good or bad, why don't you have any rules! The emperor and the enemy's spies are patrolling the city to demonstrate. If you don't kneel down and be rude when you see the team, I'm afraid you will die! If it weren't for Lao Zhang, I would be kind, you, hum!"

After hearing this, Shen Mo remained silent and didn't respond much. He covered his hands in his sleeves and carefully rubbed the thing thrown by the man who ruined his face. The underside of his fingers was undulating delicately, with rounded corners, and it was a piece of carved jade pendant.

Seeing the silence, Lao Zhang from the Baozi shop didn't appreciate it at all, and was even more annoyed, thinking that he was meddling in his own business, and the noise of fiddling with the noodle table was louder.

Shen Mo bowed his head, before the man threw the jade pendant to him, he screamed, but his lips opened and closed, as if he was afraid that he would not understand.

He said, "Give it back to him for me."

But I don't know if the man died and went to the doctor in a hurry or something, he was silent and blindfolded, but he was a "blind man", how could he understand what he said?

At this point, Shen Shen took the jade pendant, continued to watch the people coming and going in front of him, and listened to the noise in his ears.

Not far away, there was another confusion, and several teenagers dressed as students hurriedly passed by, leaving behind a few broken words.

"Mr. Shi is going to beat the drums! He is going to sue Senior Brother Lou's parents!"

And the hexagrams of the previous divination in Shen Mo's mind shook.

"Water and mountains - the solution to the hexagram is not over yet."

The author has something to say: "The emperor is married——"
