Chapter 9: Becoming an Apprentice! (Seeking Collection and Recommendation)

  The blind old man seemed to have felt his gaze and suddenly looked over, which made Yi Tian's heart inexplicably shocked!

  However, even stranger things were yet to come. The blind old man slowly stood up, closed his eyes, and walked forward with his hands behind his back. As he walked, he effortlessly avoided all obstacles in front of him, including pedestrians.

  Yi Tian's mouth was agape, staring at the somewhat eccentric old man in disbelief. If he hadn't heard earlier that the old man was indeed blind, Yi Tian would have thought he was just being mysterious on purpose.

  Not to mention him, even the fellow villagers around saw the old blind man's move and were completely stunned.

  The old man Wang beside Yi Tian's body was trembling from time to time, as if he had received some kind of stimulation.

  "Mr. Wang, are you alright?" Yi Tian asked.

  "Nothing... nothing, this person is not simple, it seems that today I've met a superior!" Old Wang hastily stood up, straightened his clothes and stood upright, excitedly looking at the blind old man walking towards him.

  Yi Tian also quickly got up, and when he heard the two words "high person", he didn't dare to be slow. Although he was still young, he had heard many strange stories from Xu Lao, who raised him, especially after experiencing things in the Sea of Recognition, he only understood that there were many things in this world that he did not understand and could not reach.

  Just as the old man came closer, Old Wang said respectfully: "Junior Wang Jun, greetings to senior!"

  Yi Tian also had a lot to say: "Junior Yi Tian has seen his senior!"

  Although the old blind man had his eyes closed, his demeanor and expression were no different from those with their eyes open. He slightly waved his hand and smiled: "Hehe, you two don't need to be polite!"

  Then he said to Yi Tian: "Yi Tian? En... good name! However, Yi Tian is easy, Yi Tian is difficult. Young man, I have been waiting for you for many days. Do you want me to take a look at your fate?"

  At this point, Yi Tian involuntarily furrowed his brow, 'What a load of nonsense, I don't understand at all. Fortune-telling? This is not necessary, after all, I am also a fortune teller! Besides, who knows if you're just trying to cheat me?'

  Just as Yi Tian was muttering to himself, the blind old man burst out laughing: "Haha, it's indeed a bit hard for you to understand now, but you'll come to realize what I'm saying in the future! You seem to not quite believe in my fortune-telling abilities, how about we make a bet?"

  Yi Tian hesitated for a moment and asked: "What are we betting on?"

  "If I'm wrong with my calculation, I'll pay you 500,000 yuan. But if I'm right, you just need to agree to one condition!"

  When he heard 500,000, Yi Tian's eyes lit up, and Zhang opened his eyes wide in disbelief, "Are you talking about RMB?"

  The old blind man smiled slightly and shook his head.

  Yitian's face suddenly turned black, and he thought that if it wasn't RMB, then it wasn't something for human use. Thinking of this, he felt that the old man was either ill or looking for trouble!

  Just as he was about to get angry, the old blind man said: "I'm talking about dollars! How about it? Dare you bet?"

  "What? Beautiful... dollars!"

  At this time, it was not only Yitian who was surprised, but also Old Man Wang and some of his fellow villagers around him stared at the blind old man in astonishment.

  However, Yi Tian calmed down at this time, and coldly hummed in his heart, 'This old man is boasting too much, 500,000 US dollars converted to RMB is more than 4 million. With so much money, why are you still running around here?'

  Now he doesn't care about the money anymore, his face calm and composed as he says: "Let's talk about your conditions first!"

  The old blind man chuckled and said, "My condition is simple, I want you to be my apprentice!"

  "Is this the condition? Is there no other way?" Yi Tian's head was spinning now, what did this old man want to do?

  The old man with a serious face said: "That's all!"

  The old man Wang beside him stared blankly at the conversation between the two, not daring to interrupt. From his experience and knowledge, the blind old man was not talking nonsense, but why did the other party do this, he couldn't quite understand.

  "Alright, I agree!" Yi Tian responded after a moment of thought. This was also his serious analysis and decision, anyway he wouldn't lose out on anything, since the blind old man wanted to read his fortune, then let him do it.

  "Alright, stretch out your hand, I'll take a look at your bone structure!"

  Through the content of Shenxiangpu, Yitian also has a preliminary understanding of bone divination. Among all physiognomy, bone divination is the most difficult to understand and master. This physiognomy has a disadvantage, that is, it cannot be used for children under six years old.

  Because children's skeletal development is not yet complete, even if it appears now, with age growth, there will be a big difference.

  At this time, a lot of people had already gathered around, all wanting to see what strange thing was happening here.

  Yitian stretched out his arm to hand it over to the blind old man, letting him take a look. However, he didn't think the other party could really see anything, and at the same time, he was secretly plotting that if the blind old man couldn't see it, he wouldn't be able to get the $500,000 back, and he would definitely make the other party suffer!

  The old blind man's eyebrows relaxed and furrowed repeatedly for many times before he finally let go of Yi Tian's arm.

  He saw his lips move slightly, "Yi Tian, I'm using internal force to transmit sound and talk to you now, don't make a sound!"

  Yi Tian was staring at the blind old man in shock, who was standing there motionless, with a thoughtful expression on his face. He hadn't said a word, but his voice had already entered Yi Tian's ears.

  "You were originally a lone star from birth, adopted by others since childhood, and just turned eighteen this year. Recently, you had a serious illness that almost took your life! Is what I said correct?"

  Yi Tian nodded blankly, the current situation was too magical, he almost didn't dare to believe that this was real.

  "I can't see the specific reason for your illness, but from your bone structure, you should have only had an 18-year lifespan. However, you miraculously crossed over the threshold of death, and your appearance has already exceeded the heavenly numbers. I can see your past clearly, but as for seeing your future, there is no one in the world who can do that!"

  "Eighteen years ago, you were harmed by someone, and eighteen years later, you miraculously survived. I think that person with a grudge will not let it go when they find out. Now all the evidence has disappeared, and I don't know who was behind your attempted murder either. Otherwise, I might have taken matters into my own hands to help you resolve this!"

  "And your parents..."

  At this point, Yi Tian's heart violently fluctuated twice, his expression extremely complex, and he shouted in his heart: "Enough, I believe everything you said is true! I'm willing to admit defeat!"

  Then he made a move that shocked everyone, suddenly kneeling down on the ground and saying to the blind old man: "Master is above, please accept my bow!"

  The old man hastily helped Yi Tian up and laughed heartily, saying: "Haha, good! Let's go find a quiet place to have a good chat!"

  Under the gaze of everyone's suspicion, the two left everyone's sight.

  They took a car and arrived at the only three-star hotel in the county town, where the blind old man had been living for days.

  Inside the room, Yi Tian asked in confusion: "Master, who are you exactly? You said earlier that you've been waiting for me for some days, but we've never met before. What do you want from me?"
