"Sir, after I throw this old lunatic out, can you tell me if you can help me?"
"No, I mean... look at him." Dick pointed at the old man and said, "He is wearing so little. If you don't care about him, he might freeze to death in a while."
"But he's just a madman, sir."
"Let's do this. Prepare a thick blanket for him and get some food. Don't worry, I won't let him in. I'll pay for it."
"You are such a kind gentleman. In fact, he can't freeze to death. There is an abandoned house nearby that belongs to him. I don't know why he dared to run wild here today."
"Forget it, it's easy."
Dick actually thinks that he is not a very kind person, but he is just happy to see him.
The old man in front of me is crazy and what he says is quite interesting.
There are extraordinary things in this world, and it is very possible that there really is Deity, just like what the barbarian woman 'Pipi' said before [Manslayer] is Messenger of the Mountain God.
[Manslayer] is extremely powerful and can defeat a hundred, so Mountain God is probably some kind of Deity.
Seeing that this old man has no respect for the gods, is commendable for his courage, and dares to commit suicide, let's just give him some points as a reward.
Just as he was thinking about it, the old man in front of him suddenly broke free from the waiter's restraints, pointed at Dick and laughed:
"Witcher, it's really rare in this world that you have such a kind heart. In this case, I will give you a divination for free."
"It turns out you are a witcher. It was dark, so I couldn't see clearly. Why do I feel like there is light in your eyes?"
The waiter first looked at Dick and smiled apologetically, then muttered to the old man, "You are crazy, how can you predict fortune?"
"What do you mean?" Dick looked at the waiter.
"Master Demon Hunter, he used to be a fortune teller. He has been passed down from generation to generation for three generations and is very good at telling fortunes.
"If someone's pig is lost or a woman runs away with someone else, he can calculate the exact location.
"But he went crazy after receiving a lady a few days ago."
Dick became interested after hearing this. "You said he is a fortune teller?"
"Yes, he always brings some gadgets that we don't recognize, like shells, cards, etc. to give us divination.
"The fees were quite expensive at that time. I even asked him to calculate when I would be able to open a store and become the owner. He actually said that I would be working hard all my life. Do you think this person is a bad person?"
Dick smiled, "Then do you know who the lady he received is?"
"Then I don't know. Judging from the way that lady is dressed, she is not an ordinary person."
"I happen to be interested, can you help me with divination?" Dick looked at the old man.
"Okay, okay." The old man on the side said happily.
Then he stretched out a dirty and skinny hand and pressed it towards Dick's forehead.
Dick was about to hide when the old man said seriously, "Don't be afraid, this is just a way to tell your fortune.
"I used those props to tell fortunes before, just to have a sense of ritual and make those fools trust me more.
"Actually, my real ability is that I can know the future fate of the other person just by putting my hand on the other person's forehead.
"Now, let me take a good look at you."
There is no hint of madness in his words.
The waiter on the side secretly spat. "This madman."
Then he entered the house and bought some food and blankets according to Dick's instructions.
Dick also became interested after hearing this and did not avoid the old man.
When his hand touched his forehead, Dick could clearly feel the coolness and sour smell emanating from the skinny hand.
"Yes, good boy, that's it, let me take a look at you, take a good look at you."
The old man looked over closely, and Dick didn't have any uncomfortable feeling in his mind like when Ruiwen cast the spell before.
This made him relax a little. The old man looked relaxed at first, but gradually became more and more excited. At the same time, his pupils dilated, as if he wanted to write down the whole picture of Dick. Finally, he put his hand down and shouted:
"So, you are not from this world?"
Dick's eyes were slightly narrowed, but his face was otherwise expressionless, but his heart was already filled with shock.
At the same time, cold sweat covered my back:
How does he know that I am not from this world?
What other secrets did he discern?
Fortunately, there was no one else in the dark yard, so Dick was not worried about being exposed.
Just as he was trying to organize his words to ask some questions, the door of the hotel was pushed open again, and the waiter came out carrying a string of food wrapped in oil paper and a blanket under his arm.
The old man in front of him started to open his arms again, looked up to the sky and laughed, and said in a cadence:
"The path of destiny is set,
"Those with gray hair will be punished.
"Lead everyone to fear the evil shadow,
"Hopefully the dawn will come.
"But you fell from the sky,
"The peace of the troubled world.
"The fire is all around me,
"It's hard to understand how good and bad are dependent on each other.
"The road ahead is foggy,
"Chaos governs all living things."
After saying this, his body straightened up and fell backward.
It hit the ground with a "bang" and stopped moving.
Dick took two steps to come to him, squatted down and put an index finger under his nostril.
He shook his head regretfully, gently closed his wide eyes, and stood up.
"This old madman died like this?" the waiter on the side said hurriedly, "Hey, he died in front of our store, and his body has to be disposed of.
"Master Witcher, we have already prepared this food. Look..."
"Don't worry, I'll pay for it.
"As for this man's body, help him find a good place to bury it. I also paid for his funeral expenses."
"You are such a kind person." The waiter complimented.
Then he walked into the door again and asked others to deal with the old man's body.
Dick entered the hotel, ordered some food, sat down and ate the rice in the bowl, thinking about the old man's words:
This old man is not simple. Although he is crazy, he can see that he is not from this world.
The extraordinary powers in this world are many and complex, including monsters, demon hunters, warlocks, druids, and now even diviners.
That poem is very interesting. "The track of destiny is determined" is easy to understand. The trajectory of all things in the world is clear and has been determined;
And the [white hair] he said before he died, according to his understanding of this game [The Witcher], should refer to the protagonist Geralt.
But [Nai Hejun died from the sky], what should be said is that I suddenly came to this world.
So what exactly is [Fire] he is talking about?
As for the remaining sentences...
Dick is puzzled.
After eating, we went to the bar again.
At this time, the waiter was still here, and Dick said, "Has the old man's body been disposed of?"
"Don't worry, we have found someone to temporarily put his body outside and wrap it in cloth. We will officially dig a hole for him in the cemetery early tomorrow morning, and then buy a good coffin and bury it."
"Okay, I want to ask you something. Can you tell me more about the lady this man received before?"
"I really don't know this, not only I don't know, but people nearby don't know either.
"Because at that time we only felt that the woman was very beautiful, but we couldn't see her face clearly."
