Chapter 1577 Master Knows (One More)
After discussing with Bai Li, Ruan Qi told old Davis about the lifeline.
Of course, she didn't say that she possessed a divine weapon, but made up a reason, saying that her fate was peculiar, and an expert once promised her a chance of life.
Old Davis has a deep study of the metaphysics and numerology of Huaguo, and he also knows that the mysterious crouching tiger, hidden dragon in the east hides many capable people and strangers. Therefore, without any doubt, he believed Ruan Qi's words.
"Since there is a glimmer of life, then this card may be able to be solved. It's just that it will take some time to crack the card and catch the life. Miss Seven Kills, you may have to leave later."
It's okay for Ruan Qi to go back today, and it's not a problem to stay in Davis Manor for a few more hours.
However, she had to tell Xi Jiu.
Ruan Qi felt a little headache at the thought of telling Xi Jiu the prediction result.
Xi Jiu has already worried about her physical and mental state, now if she tells him that she has drawn a super fierce card, what will he worry about?
Ruan Qi didn't want Xi Jiu to worry too much, but when things got to this point, she had to say it if she didn't want to.
Ruan Qi controlled the wheelchair and left the divination room with old Davis.
The door opened, and Xi Jiu who had been guarding outside stood up immediately.
"Are you okay?" He walked up to Ruan Qi, knelt down on one knee and looked at her face.
Ruan Qi shook her head: "Jiujiu, we may have to leave later."
leave later?
Xi Jiu froze for a moment, suddenly a bad premonition welled up in her heart.
"Is there a problem with the prediction?"
Ruan Qi hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Well, there is indeed such a small problem. It's not serious, it's just a small problem."
Ruan Qi tried to minimize the matter, but when Xi Jiu noticed the serious expression on the old Davis' face, her heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
He stood up slowly, turned to look at the old Davis: "Old Duke, what is Xiao Qi's prediction?"
Old Davis glanced at Ruan Qi, ignored her pleading eyes, and said truthfully to Xi Jiu, "Thirteen bloody stars are sure to die."
Xi Jiu's head seemed to be hit hard by a heavy hammer, and there was an instant 'hum'.
Ruan Qi saw that he reacted so strongly, and quickly grabbed his hand: "Jiujiu, don't be nervous. Mr. Davis just said it was scary, but the situation is not so bad. I still have a chance to catch... ..."
Xi Jiu's mind was buzzing, and he couldn't hear anything clearly, but he clearly caught the word 'vitality'.
He grabbed Ruan Qi's hand with his backhand, and made a difficult voice in his throat: "What vitality? How to catch it? Can capturing the vitality resolve the predicted result?"
Xi Jiu has experienced countless lives and deaths. Even though her mind is in a mess at this time, she still maintains a trace of reason and grasps the key points accurately.
Old Davis glanced at him appreciatively, and explained: "Theoretically speaking, as long as we can catch this ray of life, the cards can be resolved. However, Miss Seven Kills has a peculiar fate, and I have to wait for the result. Grab that line of life, and then make a conclusion."
Xi Jiu had already forced himself to calm down, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "When will you start grabbing life? What do I need to do?"
"I don't need to do anything. As long as Miss Seven Kills is by my side, that's enough. The vitality is uncertain, and no one knows how long it will take to catch it. The two of you should be prepared to leave later."
Xi Jiu naturally had no objection.
As long as he can help Ruan Qi grab that chance, let alone leave later, he is happy even if he is allowed to lay a shop on the floor of Davis Manor.
After several people discussed, Ruan Qi followed old Davis into the divination room.
The heavy door of the divination room was slowly closed, blocking Ruan Qi's figure and Xi Jiu's eyes on her.
Xi Jiu stood outside the door silently, her figure was straight, but her expression was cold.
Time passed by every minute and every second, and an hour passed quickly.
Xi Jiu was like a tireless stone statue, still standing straight in place, without moving a step.
A servant from Davis Manor passed by here, and came up to ask him if he needed drinks and snacks.
Xi Jiu seemed to have her facial features closed, and she didn't respond to the outside world, only a pair of eyes fixed on the door of the divination room.
In this way, another two hours passed.
The sun gradually slid towards the west, and the huge ancient clock in Davis Manor slowly struck sixteen times.
It's four o'clock in the afternoon.
Ruan Qi and old Davis haven't come out yet.
The blood all over Xi Jiu's body gradually turned cold, and his eyes, which had barely blinked, were stained with bloodshot streaks.
The servant of the manor came up again and asked him if he wanted to rest.
Xi Jiu still didn't respond, it wasn't impolite, but he really couldn't hear the outside world at this moment.
Suddenly, a 'ding dong' sounded in the quiet air.
Seeing that he was not moving, the servant standing beside him couldn't help but remind him: "Sir, your cell phone is ringing."
Xi Jiu didn't hear it, and was still staring at the door of the divination room.
At this moment, the cell phone in his trouser pocket rang again and again.
The servant couldn't stand it anymore, so he bravely patted him on the arm.
"Sir, your phone is ringing!"
This time, Xi Jiu finally sensed the touch from the outside world.
He blinked very slowly, as if a figurine statue that had been dusty for thousands of years was gradually waking up. He turned his head and looked at the servant.
The servant was startled by the bloodshot eyes, "Sir, your phone has been ringing all the time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in his trouser pocket rang again.
Xi Jiu thanked the servant with a hoarse voice, and then took out the phone slowly.
On the screen of the phone was a series of WeChat messages, all sent by Nie Beilou.
Xi Jiu unlocked the screen.
[Mr. Beilou: Xiao Qi has recovered his memory? 】
[Mr. Beilou: What happened? You talk about it carefully. 】
[Mr. Beilou: Where are people? Why don't you answer? How is Xiaoqi's mental state now? 】
[Mr. Beilou:? 】
[Mr. Beilou:? ? 】
[Mr. Beilou:? ? ? 】
Nie Beilou sent more than a dozen WeChat messages in a row, and the urgency in his mood was obvious.
Xi Jiu looked up at the closed door of the divination room, lowered her eyes, knocked on a message and sent it.
【Xi Jiu: Mr. Beilou, Xiao Qi and I are in Davis Manor. 】
Nie Beilou should have been guarding the phone all the time, and replied very quickly.
[The nobleman who told fortunes on the Tianqiao? What are you guys doing there? 】
Xi Jiu hesitated for half a second, and told Nie Beilou exactly what happened today.
It may be that the amount of information is too large, and Nie Beilou has not responded.
After waiting for about five or six minutes, he made a direct phone call across the ocean.
Xi Jiu pressed the connect button.
"You said that Xiaoqi's fate is peculiar, and old Davis can't predict what will happen to her in the future?" Nie Beilou cut to the chase on the phone, but the focus was not on the results of divination, but on Ruan Qi's fate. Old Davis said it himself?"
I had something to go out this morning, and I started writing when I came back in the afternoon. The first chapter is released, and the second correction is being written. It is estimated to be updated in about an hour.
