This fox fairy is too inhuman

Chapter 290 Divination and Tribulation
  "I love it! I love traveling so much!"

After hesitating for less than a breath, Jiang Mingzhi decisively added a new hobby to himself: traveling.

I love traveling so much.

I love traveling!

"Okay, I didn't expect you to like traveling so much. You see, I am also traveling now. Do you and I want to go together?"

“It’s my blessing to be able to walk with Taoist Master!”

Upon hearing this, Ren Yidao patted Jiang Mingzhi on the shoulder and nodded with satisfaction.

The young man is very sensible.

There is a future, I am optimistic about you.

There was a slap on the shoulder, and the sincere smile on Jiang Mingzhi's face became more natural.

Ah yes yes yes.

Everything you said is right, just say it is, I won't refute it.

Anyway, after talking like this, Jiang Mingzhi gradually got better and patted his chest and said:
  "I really like it! Taoist priest, just ask anyone in Jiang Guo. Who in the Jiang Kingdom doesn't know that my favorite thing, Jiang Mingzhi, is traveling."

"Oh? Since you are so confident, should I really ask someone?"

"Cough cough cough! That, what, I remembered something!"

Jiang Mingzhi stopped Ren Yidao, who was about to randomly select a lucky audience, and changed the subject: "Taoist Priest, you don't have a place to stay in the city yet? Why don't you stay at my house for a while?"

As the host, Jiang Mingzhi should treat guests as he should.

But unexpectedly, Ren Yidao refused without even thinking.

"No, we won't stay any longer in Jiangcheng."

All night long?

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Mingzhi asked: "Then when will we set off?"

"Just today, um, we'll set off in an hour!"

It’s been two lifetimes, it’s time to take a quick trip!
  Senior sister is so big, I want to go... Oh, the world is so big, I want to see it!

"Akechi, what do you think?"

"I……"

To be honest, Jiang Mingzhi was a little hesitant about this invitation.

Logically speaking, Jiang Mingzhi didn't have to be so groveling when it came to treating Ren Yidao.

Even if you are not an enemy, you don't have to turn into a licking dog.

Really unnecessary.

He is Tianhuang nobleman, the future King Jiang. No matter how strong Ren Yidao is now, he may not be able to provide him with anything in the future.

And the reason why he, Prince Jiang Guochang, is so sensible and obedient is actually not that complicated.

Jiang Mingzhi had a reason to do this.

intuition.

After Jiang Mingzhi gave up his stubborn resistance, he actually saw a vague omen in Ren Yidao.

Jiang State's status in Donghuang is somewhat different from that of other vassal states. Even among the first echelons, it is considered aloof.

Because a long time ago, when the entire Eastern Wasteland was still a tribe, the Jiang family was famous for their witchcraft and sacrificial techniques.

The Jiang family is good at divination, stargazing, and sacrifice... King Jiang was the head of the Jiang family and the high priest of the tribes in the Eastern Wasteland at that time.

The masters of the Eastern Wasteland have changed from generation to generation, but the position of high priest has always been held by members of the Jiang family.

Even today, the tribes in the Eastern Wilderness are divided and their respect for the King of Chu is only superficial, but most of them keep a respectful distance from magicians like the Jiang family.

You don’t have to be in awe, but you won’t provoke them either.

Nowadays, although the Jiang family no longer relies on the art of witchcraft to establish itself, the secret method has still been passed down.

Among this generation, the eldest prince Jiang Mingzhi is particularly good at divination.

Relying on the astrolabe based on fate, he can calculate some of the disasters that will happen to him.

In so many years, Jiang Mingzhi only failed once!
  That time in the East Wasteland, he originally thought that he would encounter a great fate, so he happily searched for it, but in the end he met Ren Yidao, a man who could kill a thousand swords and threatened him. …

No, that counts as two times.

Just today, before bringing people to surround Ren Yidao, he habitually did a divination to show that everything would go well for him.

Judging from the results, the matter was indeed resolved smoothly... for Ren Yidao.

After conscientiously choosing to kneel down, Jiang Mingzhi subconsciously made another prediction.

And this hexagram was the fundamental reason for him to change his attitude.

Jiang Mingzhi calculated that he would have a fatal disaster in the near future!

As shown in the hexagram, not only will his body and soul disappear, but all his possessions will be used as wedding clothes for others, and everything will be in vain!
  This hexagram seems to be alarmist. How could he, a dignified prince, be killed so easily?
  The answer is... yes.

As the eldest prince, Jiang Mingzhi's life is not as stable as outsiders imagine.

Even if you put aside the hundreds of brothers who are always watching your position, King Jiang's attitude is the most important.

Jiang Mingzhi's father, Jiang Wanxiong, has not delegated power and has always firmly held the real power in his own hands.

As the eldest prince, the only forces Jiang Mingzhi can mobilize are those who surrounded Ren Yidao just now. Those above him only obey the orders of King Jiang.

Jiang Mingzhi would never sit back and watch something like this happen, and the way he figured out to break the situation... lies with the person in front of him.

Ren Yidao is the one who breaks the situation!

Therefore, no matter what Ren Yidao says and wants, this thigh must be held tightly.

No matter where you are traveling, I don’t know and I don’t dare to ask, so just go with me.

"Okay, I'm willing to go with the Taoist priest."

Thinking clearly about the gains and losses, Jiang Mingzhi nodded with a smile.

Seeing Jiang Mingzhi's straightforward agreement, Ren Yidao did not press ahead, but reminded:

"Why don't you go back and tell your family? We'll be leaving in an hour."

Jiang Mingzhi thought for a while. Although it was not a big deal to go out privately, he still had to make arrangements.

"Then, Taoist Master, please follow me to your house first. I will arrange some trivial matters and we will set off in an hour."

"No, you go ahead and make arrangements. I will naturally come to you then."

"That's fine too."

……

……

The Prince's Mansion.

"Please be more agile with your hands and feet! If it delays the young master's schedule, no one can escape!"

Yu Qiu put her hands on her hips and directed her maids to quickly pack clothes and daily necessities in the room.

After working for a long time, I finally managed to prepare everything needed before the stipulated time, and let the waiting servants carry it to the eldest prince's study.

After finishing their work, several other maids left to do their own work. Only the little maid Hu Zhuzhu, who had secretly chatted with Yu Qiu before, approached her again.

"Sister Yu, what's going on?"

She first looked around guiltily, and then asked in a low voice:

"Is the young master about to go out?"

The girl's face was flushed, her eyes seemed to be twinkling with little stars, and she looked like a nymphomaniac.

"Well, the eldest young master told us about this when he returned to the house just now, and arranged for us to prepare everything we need within half an hour."

"Oh~"

Hu Zhuzhu blinked and then asked:

"Did the young master say where he was going?"

But this time, Yu Qiu showed a change of expression and sternly reprimanded:
  "Hu Zhuzhu! Do you understand the rules? Is this what you should ask!?"

"Do you know what you want to do with this? Are you planning to murder the young master with outsiders?"

Hu Zhuzhu was startled, his whole body trembled, and he bit his lip hard.

"Sister Yu, I, I'm not, that's not what I meant..."

The little maid was obviously frightened, and subconsciously moved backwards. As a result, she accidentally tripped to the ground and sat down on the ground.

"Alas!" Seeing Hu Zhuzhu's attitude, Yu Qiuyi felt a little soft-hearted, sighed and reached out to help her up.

While patting the dust on her butt, he said:

"I know you didn't mean it that way, but what if your words fall into other people's ears? What will they think?"

"How many times have I told you, ask what you should ask and don't ask what you shouldn't! Do you understand?"

Hu Zhuzhu was comforted for a while, and finally put away the tears in the corners of her eyes, lowered her head and admitted her mistake:
  "I'm sorry, Sister Yu, I shouldn't have made it difficult for you."

Yu Qiu waved her hands indifferently and said seriously:
  "I don't have anything here, but you must never ask such sensitive questions to other people in the future."

"You and I are family friends, so I just gave you a few words of advice. If it weren't for this relationship, I wouldn't bother to care about your life or death."

Yu Qiuyi looked at the stupid girl in front of him and snorted coldly, turned around and walked out, leaving her alone in the room.

Hu Zhuzhu was obviously a very smart girl when she was a child, but why did she become so stupid when she grew up?
  Are you really carried away by love? Or is there someone behind her back?
  "Oh, no matter what, it has nothing to do with me anyway."

In the last year of her stay at home, Yu Qiu did not seek merit but no fault. She just wanted to leave here peacefully and did not want to get involved with other things.

After Yu Qiuyi left, Hu Zhuzhu's expression gradually changed.

Squinting as she watched Yu Qiuyi walk away, the girl put away her pitiful expression and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from her eyes.

"Ah!"

Hu Zhuzhu sneered, his whole temperament changed, he shook his hair, curled his lips and said:
  "Just a nosy guy."

"If it weren't for the fact that you really treat me well, I would have made you understand what would happen if you talked to me like that!"

Hu Zhuzhu looked outside the room and closed the door after making sure no one noticed.

Hu Zhuzhu raised his hand and took off the hairpin, letting his long hair fall loose.

She let her hair down, put her spiritual thoughts into the hairpins, and silently conveyed the message.

"Urgent news! Jiang Mingzhi is about to leave Jiangcheng! The destination is unknown!"

"Urgent news! Jiang Mingzhi..."

click!
  And just when Hu Zhuzhu was delivering the news, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open!

!!!

who is it! ?
  Hu Zhuzhu was startled, clutching her hairpin tightly, and turned back in panic.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

He thought his behavior was seen by someone, but when Hu Zhuzhu turned around, he found that it was an unexpected person.

Jiang Mingde.

Why is he here?

Jiang Mingde, who had a wound on his face, was about to untie his belt and let the water go out, but he found someone in the room, looking at the disheveled maid with wide eyes.

"I, uh, I am a servant of the house..."

"Go, go, who asked you this! What are you doing here?" Jiang Mingde waved his hands impatiently and frowned.

Hu Zhuzhu had an idea, raised the hairpin in his hand tremblingly, and said in fear:

"The villain's hairpin fell off, and he was about to put it back on..."

"Tsk!"

Jiang Mingde smacked his lips impatiently and waved people away roughly.

"Get out of here! Go wherever you like, don't get in my eyes here!"

"Yes, yes! Thank you young master..."

Hu Zhuzhu's heart felt relieved, he thanked him anxiously, lowered his head and walked quickly outside.

But just when she was about to walk out of the room, Jiang Mingde spoke again.

"stop!"

!!!

goo.

Hu Zhuzhu paused, but did not look back. He clenched the hairpin in his hand and narrowed his eyes.

Did he find out?

If it gets worse like that, then we can only...

"No matter who asks you after that, you have never seen me here, do you understand?"

It turned out to be this!
  Feeling completely relaxed, Hu Zhuzhu whispered again and again:
  "Don't worry, sir, I understand."

"Hmph! I'm sorry you don't have the guts, okay, get out of here!"

Hu Zhuzhu, who was finally freed, didn't stop for a moment and strode forward, closing the door on the way.

Not long after she walked out, she heard a strange laughter coming from the room behind her:

"Hey hey hey! Jiang Mingzhi! I'll let you humiliate me today! See if I don't leave you a painful memory!"

Then, there was a sparse sound of water...

Hearing this, Hu Zhuzhu frowned tightly, walked faster, and curled his lips in disgust:
  "As expected of a dandy, he is indeed a loser!"

"Jiang Mingzhi is also a top-notch talent. How could he have a brother like him?"

Quickly tying up the hair, Hu Zhuzhu returned to his usual innocent appearance, thinking in his mind:

"The news has been passed on, they should be ready, and the rest of the matter is out of my control."

"Tsk! How long do I have to stay here?"

Thinking of this, Hu Zhuzhu licked his tongue in disgust, his eyes turning gloomy.

"How can I sneak into King Jiang's side?"

……

……

"Father, he... looks less and less like a king."

After reporting his whereabouts to King Jiang, Jiang Mingzhi walked out of the palace and recalled the conversation he had just had with his father.

"He actually didn't ask anything, he just nodded."

King Jiang did not open his eyes to look at his eldest prince from beginning to end, but nodded without looking back, indicating that he already knew.

"Compared to the king, my father is more and more like a shaman priest."

Mysterious, weird, powerful...

Although Jiang Wanxiong has not entered the heavenly realm, he gives Jiang Mingzhi the feeling of being more dangerous than many heavenly realm monks.

Jiang Mingzhi knew clearly that this showed that Jiang Wanxiong's shamanic ritual method was about to reach a higher level.

"Witch Priest Master of the Heavenly Realm, how many years has it been since there was no Heavenly Witch born in the Eastern Wasteland?"

Shaking his head to dispel these thoughts from his mind, Jiang Mingzhi should consider one thing more than caring about the legend of Tian Wu.

"Once my father becomes the Heavenly Witch, he will definitely step down from his position as king. At that time, I will be the new King Jiang."

"But, if I were not in Jiangcheng at that time, would anything happen?"

Thinking like this, Jiang Mingzhi felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

"Akechi, are you ready?"

Behind him, Ren Yidao asked enthusiastically with a bright smile:

"Let's go!"

what are you waiting for?

Let's go catch jellyfish together!

Looking at Ren Yidao's face, Jiang Mingzhi suddenly figured out something.

"Rather than thinking about the future, let's get over the current crisis first and then talk about other things."

Since there is no way to break the situation, the only way is to deal with it.

If this calamity cannot be overcome, the future will be nonsense.

I just hope that this time, I won’t make a mistake again.

Jiang Mingzhi smiled and said easily:
  "I'm ready to go."
