Chapter 879 Guests
The next morning, Xia Pingan drank the fragrant golden millet porridge and ate the fried golden beef patties. He sighed with satisfaction. This is breakfast...
I haven’t had such an authentic Chinese breakfast in a long time.
In the kitchen, the "aunt" summoned yesterday is busy. "Aunt" is the name Xia Pingan gave to the summoned maid. Today's breakfast was made by that aunt. At this moment, Xia Pingan is eating breakfast. Auntie I am still making kimchi and pickles in the kitchen using some vegetables I just bought this morning. With kimchi and pickles, I can make more delicious food.
The aunt was diligent and capable, and she immediately freed Xia Pingan from the trivial matters in the villa.
In just one night, the entire villa changed its appearance. Everything was in order, all the furniture and floors were spotless, and all the tableware in the restaurant were neatly placed. Nothing that should be washed or tidied was left behind. It has been prepared, not to mention her own breakfast, and even the water that the Green Messenger and the Black Dragon drink every day, Auntie has taken it into consideration.
Seeing how capable his aunt was, Xia Pingan finally experienced the fun of being a summoner again.
"Brandy Daily" was placed neatly on the edge of the table. There was no wrinkle on the newspaper. Every word on the newspaper was clear, neat and flat, and had been ironed.
"By the way, where did you buy this millet?" Xia Pingan asked Long Wu who was standing next to him while eating breakfast, because ingredients like millet were not available in the villa before.
"Well, there is a Chinese fruit shop not far from Binhu Street. My aunt went to buy it this morning..." Long Wu replied.
Chinese cuisine is unique no matter where it is, because the ingredients required for Chinese cuisine are somewhat different from those required by most people in Kelland. Therefore, as long as it is a larger city, there are Chinese gatherings. You can see Pagoda stores, special food and medicinal materials stores specially opened for Chinese people, everywhere.
After breakfast, the aunt brought over the morning tea and cleared the table. Xia Pingan was in the restaurant and picked up today's Brandi Daily.
Unsurprisingly, the front page of today's Brandi Daily reports on the wax museum with a horrifying headline, "The Hell Wax Museum Hidden in Coland". The photo that goes with this headline, It’s a photo of the Drover Wax Museum. Countless police officers are guarding the outside of the wax museum. Some police officers, wearing protective clothing, are carrying body bags out of the wax museum one by one. The atmosphere in the photo is gloomy and very scary.
Xia Pingan glanced at it. There was nothing new in the reporter's report. The whole report was full of exaggerated descriptions, such as "There is a bloody hell hidden in the basement of the wax museum... The owner of the demon museum uses the organs of living people and... When the door of the wax museum opened, the strong corpse odor could be smelled a hundred meters away from the Drover Wax Museum. Mandy, a veteran police officer who had handled many murder cases, saw the wax figure. The scenes in the museum made me vomit..."
In addition, the report also deliberately exaggerated some suspenseful atmosphere and left a lot of suspense. Today's report did not mention the corpse robbery case, and it also paved the way for the subsequent series of reports.
This kind of news is definitely the favorite of those who work in newspapers and media. Xia Ping'an can imagine how easy it is to sell these newspapers on the streets of Corland today. Such topics can make these media hot as long as they continue to explore. Fry for a month.
"These newspapers should pay me a salary..." Xia Pingan, who was holding the newspaper, muttered. He probably wouldn't be able to receive the newspaper's benefits. However, the boundary beads that Mr. Coin gave him yesterday were perfectly integrated and added 24 to him. points of divine power and the upper limit of divine power, so his current available divine power has changed from 678 points to 702 points.
Having said this, Xia Pingan gently touched the top of his head again and whispered to himself, "It would be great if there were a few more world beads..." He is now the first level two-star god's favored person, far away from If you add another divine bone and become a first-level three-star divine favored person, you will only be short of the upper limit of 57 points of divine power.
If there were enough World Beads, Xia Pingan was sure that he could gather 99 divine bones within a month and reach the final step of becoming a god. But now, he could only endure it, patiently waiting and looking for opportunities for the World Beads to appear. .
Mrs. Margaret’s friend will come to visit Divination this morning, which is a good start, and Mr. Coin said that the Ahrens family, the Dark Moon Club and Franco Petrarch will work together to compensate themselves and give themselves a batch of enough If you want to upgrade yourself to a realm bead, just wait patiently.
There was no news about Mr. Coin in the back of the newspaper.
…
Just as Xia Pingan was reading the newspaper, a somewhat dazzling golden carriage had stopped in front of No. 169 Binhu Street. Almost as soon as the carriage stopped, a man in green clothes was standing on the big tree on the roadside outside. The messenger immediately noticed the carriage, and so did the magic vines in the soil of the flower bed outside the door.
The coachman, who was as strong as a bear with a thick beard and a faint scar on his left cheek, got out of the car and opened the door of the carriage respectfully. A snow-white calf wearing a golden high-heeled shoe stretched out from the carriage. Then, Lady Caitlin, who was wearing a long white dress and a fox fur shawl, put a hand on the coachman's wrist and stepped out of the carriage gracefully.
Lady Catelyn changed to another carriage today. She felt that this golden carriage matched the high heels she was wearing better.
After seeing that the "Going out on business" sign was no longer hanging outside the door of No. 169, Mrs. Caitlin finally showed a graceful and elegant smile.
Lady Catelyn just signaled with her eyes, and her coachman stepped forward and rang the doorbell of No. 169 Lakeside Street.
A few seconds later, Long Wu opened the door of the villa and glanced at the coachman outside. Their eyes collided twice invisibly. Mrs. Caitlin's coachman explained his purpose, and Long Wu politely let the two of them go. After entering the villa, he asked the coachman to wait in the living room of the villa, and took Mrs. Caitlin directly to the tea room on the first floor of the villa near the back garden. The tea room had been renovated and decorated, making it look relaxed, comfortable and quiet. It was Xia Pingan who gave people fortune telling. studio.
When Xia Pingan and Mrs. Caitlin met, they were both stunned for a moment.
"Ah, it's you..." Mrs. Caitlin suddenly covered her mouth and smiled, full of charm.
"Madam, this world is really small. I didn't expect to meet you again!" Xia Pingan also smiled.
When Mr. Coin asked Xia Pingan to meet at the Lord's Temple for the first time, Xia Pingan left the confession room and happened to meet the woman in front of him, and then participated in the worship at the Lord's Temple together. It was just that the two of them were I don’t know anyone, I just looked at each of them twice and left an impression.
Mrs. Caitlin's first impression of Xia Pingan was that of a rich woman. Unexpectedly, the first customer who came to the door today would be her.
After the two got to know each other again, Xia Pingan asked Mrs. Caitlin to sit down and personally poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Caitlin. As soon as Mrs. Caitlin sat down, she untied her fox fur shawl, revealing her graceful upper body. curve, sitting lazily on the sofa.
"It's hard to believe that you are so young and you are actually a fortune teller..." Mrs. Caitlin said with a smile, "I basically know all the famous fortune tellers in Corland. As a newcomer, you seem to be very confident. I hope you won't disappoint me. !”
Xia Pingan naturally knew what Mrs. Caitlin meant by confidence, because his charges were indeed not cheap, so Xia Pingan asked directly, "What does Madam want to divine?"
"Of course it is dream interpretation. Dreams are revelations given by the gods. Only fortune-tellers who can interpret the revelations of the gods can gain a foothold in a place like Corland..." Mrs. Caitlin said with some arrogance.
"What dream did Madam have?" Xia Pingan asked directly.
"A very strange dream, um, related to the weather. There was a black rainbow in the dream, and there was a strong wind..." Mrs. Caitlin frowned slightly, her eyes showing memories, "I had the same dream recently. I’ve done this many times, but I don’t know what this means!”
"Oh, is that so? Let me take a look..." Xia Pingan said, pointing at Mrs. Caitlin's eyebrows. After consuming two points of divine power, the dreaming spell was activated...
In order to build up his reputation and reputation, Xia Ping'an also invested in the first customer who came to his door. This dream-casting technique requires divine power, and it is not necessary to perform it. However, using the dream-casting technique can establish the relationship more clearly. It’s just your image in other people’s minds.
As soon as the dreaming spell was cast, Mrs. Caitlin naturally closed her eyes as if falling asleep.
The scene in the dream is that Lady Catelyn is standing on the cliff. The dream is misty, there is rain in the sky, and the wind is strong. The strangest thing is that there is a black rainbow hanging in the sky of the dream. The strong wind blew Lady Catelyn's long dress, making this woman look lonely and helpless in such a dream.
Looking at such a dream and interpreting the messages that appeared in the dream, Xia Pingan's expression suddenly became serious.
With a wave of her hand, Mrs. Caitlin's dream dissipated in front of Xia Pingan. Mrs. Caitlin also opened her eyes again. Looking at Xia Pingan, she suddenly showed some respect. Mrs. Caitlin sat upright, her eyes flashed, and she was full of joy. Out of curiosity, "Ah, what you just performed was a dream-acting spell? I feel like I've entered that dream again!"
"Yes, that's exactly the art of dream acting!" Xia Ping'an nodded.
"What does a dream like that portend?"
"That dream is not a good omen. Madam, please forgive me. Your life is now facing a huge crisis, and this crisis will be related to your health!" Xia Pingan said to Mrs. Caitlin with a serious face. .
