He spent five hundred taels of silver to buy the last note without blinking.
After sitting down, Shen Ning asked him whether he wanted to test characters or read faces. He thought for a moment and said, "Let's test characters." His voice was low but powerful.
He thought for a moment, picked up the pen and wrote the word "hui", and then pushed it in front of Shen Ning.
His strokes were vigorous and smooth. Shen Ning glanced at it and asked, "What do you want to write?"
The scribe said: "I have something that I have been looking for but can't find. I want to calculate the whereabouts of such a thing and when it will come back to me. Is it possible that the fortune-telling girl can figure it out?"
Shen Ning couldn't help being stunned and asked: "What is it?"
The scribe shook his head slightly and remained silent.
Shen Ning knew that this thing must be something unspeakable, and he could not speak in front of everyone.
But in this way, the scribe was tantamount to posing a huge problem for her.
She is not a god in the sky. It would be incredible if she could even figure out the whereabouts of the other person's missing things, not to mention that she doesn't even know what the missing things are.
When Xiao Si heard this, he couldn't help it anymore and shouted: "Hey, you don't know why you are making things difficult for me? This girl is not a member of your family. If you don't go to your own home to find something after you have lost it, this is just fortune-telling." Can you figure it out?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, many people around him immediately echoed in unison.
"This little brother is right."
"It's really hard to force someone to do anything, so the divine girl should just ignore him."
"That's right, if you drop something, go home and look for it yourself!"
There was a commotion in the crowd and they all chased the scribe away.
The scribe ignored everyone's ridicule and sarcasm. He just looked at Shen Ning and said solemnly: "I know this matter is too difficult, so I just try my luck with the girl's calligraphy test. If the girl can't calculate, what will happen?" It’s God’s will, alas.”
Shen Ning originally thought that this person was deliberately causing trouble, but after observing the scribe's demeanor and behavior, she found that this was not the case.
He must have really encountered trouble and was desperate, so he thought of fortune telling.
It's just that she really can't help with this matter. If she can even calculate this, then she is really a god in the sky.
She smiled apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I can't figure out your hexagram."
The scribe originally had a glimmer of hope in his eyes, but when Shen Ning said this, the light in his eyes quickly dimmed.
"I took the liberty of disturbing the girl."
He sighed, stood up, flicked his sleeves, touched the corner of the table, made a soft "ding-dong" sound, and a rattle rolled out of his sleeves.
He leaned over to pick up the rattle, gently brushed off the dust on it, then lovingly hid it back in his sleeve, and turned around to leave.
Seeing this scene, Shen Ning's eyes flashed, and something touched her heart.
She lowered her gaze and landed on the word "Hui" written by the scribe, and her two beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.
"Please wait!"
The scribe turned around and looked at Shen Ning doubtfully: "What else can I do, girl?"
Shen Ning's eyes flashed, her eyes were as bright as autumn waves, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Although her face was painted yellow and her beauty was hidden, the smile on her face immediately ignited hope in the scribe's heart.
"Could it be that... the girl figured something out?" he asked in a trembling voice.
