Shadow of the Mandrill

Chapter Five: The Twelve Astrological Techniques

I wasSuddenly rushed outI was startled, and rushedI instinctively shook my head and said it was nothing, butIt was still staring at me, and slowly walking towards me, as if it wanted to beat me up. I hurriedly...Back off.

"If I hear those last three words again, I'll tear you to shreds."!He said coldly.

I hurryNodding, I realized I could no longer...They made eye contact.His eyes were terrifying.Even saying it's the eyes of a venomous snake is a compliment.Then, I subconsciously asked, "Then I..."What?

I remember the man who came yesterday.What Mr. Qingyue? Could this be the death of...?peopleQingyue? I think...Qingyue, estimatedoneThe palm came flying straight at me.

"Owner!"

Turning aroundBack in my room, I stood there stunned, completely unprepared.The fact that those two words were actually said made me...oneMaster? I may be young, but don't I have any shame?

"Aren't you going back to sleep? If you delay my plans tomorrow, I'll deal with you!"The sound came again.

I shuddered, and hurried...He ran inside, closed the door, and crawled into bed to sleep.This startled me, as if I'd been hypnotized, and I completely forgot I was still gurgling.She slept soundly through the night until dawn.

I got up early in the morning, pushed open the door and went out, and found...He was already seated in a chair in the lobby, wearing a casual long-sleeved white shirt.Despite the sweltering heat, her arms and neck were completely covered, and her long hair was simply tied up.Her slightly wavy hair hung down beside her ears, giving her a very approachable, girl-next-door look.

I just sawOne glanceThose terrifying eyes stared at me. "From today onwards, you'll follow me wherever I go. If you dare to leave my side even for a moment, I'll interrupt you."!

I froze, not yet able to react.The cold voice followed, "Listen carefully to every word I say when I'm reading someone's face, and remember it well. If you get even one word wrong when I ask you, see how I deal with you."

I wanted to speak, but was...The terrifying eyes blocked my view, rendering me speechless. I could only nod blankly.He ran out and went to the kitchen to cook a few...He ate the egg without a second thought, I couldn't be bothered to care.Well, I only left the kitchen after I was full.

I looked at the road at the village entrance with a mixture of anticipation and hope. Why hadn't that man from yesterday come yet? If he did, I'd make a few hundred bucks and leave, then come back a few years later to die with him.When people start calculating, this thought in their minds makes them eager to get started.

As soon as I entered the main room, I saw the deadFor the first time ever, he looked me up and down a few times, his brow furrowed.The lock said, "Your dad never bought you one."Clothes? "

I nodded and said, "Of course! My father would give me food first, even if he himself wouldn't eat it."He would wear the same clothes for four or five years, until they were worn out, but he couldn't bear to replace them. And every year he would buy me two...I really like this outfit.

But I do knowWhy ask that?onewhiteThe child appearsVery elegant, clearly a city dweller at first glance.Washed until it turned whiteThe clothes were not only worn, but also severely deformed and loose, standing...Leaning to one side is really inappropriate.Yes, it is saidNo one trusts the lackeys who boss them around.

But I don't care; I don't care about these things.

"Change your slippers, keep things neat, don't...""That's terrible."He looked down and continued looking at his own work.

I grunted in agreement, ran back to my room to change my shoes, and then came out. I heard death.A cold voice said, "Come here."

I hesitated for a moment before walking over, I thoughtHe was about to tell me what to do, but I sawOpenHe picked up the bag, then took out a yellow book that looked old but was well-preserved.The book was tossed to me, and I instinctively caught it. It was titled "The Twelve Phases of the Zodiac."The four large characters are 》.

"For me?" I asked.It's incredible.

"Give it to me? You're shameless! If you lose it, tear it even a little, or even get it a little dirty, see how I deal with you! Show it to me right now!"He said coldly without even looking up.

quiltWith that shout, I rushedThis book, "Twelve Phases"The film begins, first showing...What's in front of your eyes is a person's fiveThe image depicts the five elements of a person.It is divided into twelve parts, each with a detailed description, known as the Twelve Palaces of Face Reading. (Yesterday, someone died...)The person only mentioned two of them, the Life Palace and the Wealth Palace, and didn't mention the other one. I thought there were only two.

After looking at it carefully for a while, I was deeply shocked.Wow, it's incredible how much can be revealed from facial features!I was lost, I didn't know how much time had passed, and suddenly I heard the sound of death.A cold voice cameIn my ears, I heard, "i***t, didn't you see someone coming? Put the book away."

I jolted awake, and hurried...I put the book away, looked up, and saw a black car parked by the door sometime during the night.I don't know the brand of the car, but...It feels very expensive.

The car door opened, and a man in his early thirties...A person rushed in, looking very anxious. Seeing that it wasn't the man from yesterday, my heart immediately sank.Alright.

However, when someone walked in, the twelve zodiac signs of face reading came to mind, and I subconsciously began to analyze this.It comes from a person's facial features.

I was the first to see this.On the forehead, one can findA dark patch between his brows, plustooThe area where the spouse palace is also dark is...Emerging, and this blackIt also implies division, I think.When someone is down on their luck, they might get divorced or someone in their family might die.

That's what I was thinking, but I didn't know if it was right or wrong.Watching DeathOne glance at a personJust the goalLooking at this indifferentlyA person walked in, but then...His brow furrowed slightly.

thisWhen a person sits down, the first thing they do is introduce themselves, saying...Zhang Fen, introduced by someone, came all the way here. She then went on and on about how bad this place was, saying there were no sofas or air conditioning, and the chairs were....

"With Mr. Qingyue's reputation, he could easily find a place in the city to set up a storefront. Why did he move to such a poor and remote place? It's hard for me to find. Look, there isn't even an air conditioner..." Zhang Fen said.

I was wondering about it too.

"Then you don't need to come next time."The man said calmly.

Zhang Fen was a little embarrassed and said..."Yes, I want a glass of water." This was obviously said while looking at me. I was about to go get some water, but...He said, "The water in the village isn't disinfected; if you don't like it, tell me."

dieWhen people said that, I naturally stopped.

Zhang Fen frowned, clearly displeased, but didn't react, clasping her hands together.TheZi leaned back, his tone becoming rude, "Mr. Qingyue is so capable, can't you see it? Why do you need to ask me?"

That statement carries a hint of questioning and provocation; I reckon if I said that, I'd be in deep trouble.Someone kicked me right away, and I couldn't help it.I watchedOne glancegodNo oneThe change, however, showed no sign of life.She speaks softly and gently to others, but when she talks to me, she's like a tigress, and that's how she treats others too.Pretending not to hear, I was inwardly angry with...His disgust deepened even further.

dieWithout saying a word, it was started.He took out a small bag, then took out paper and pen, and quickly wrote a series of words, which seemed to be some kind of medicinal herb, probably, because there were strychnine seeds, centipedes, and other things on it.

How could this happen?People have become doctors and started prescribing medicine?

Without a word, he handed it over. Zhang Fen frowned as she took it, glanced at it, and then became displeased. "What is written on this? I came to you for fortune telling, and you're just writing this to fool me? I came all this way to see you, and it turns out your reputation is just hype, a bunch of charlatans!"fraud……"

He then disgustedly placed the dead object in his hand.The things people wrote were torn up, and then...He was about to storm outside.

I saw deathThe person quietly put away the paper and pen, then spoke softly, "You're too..."The place, that is, the couple"There's a splitting black aura emerging from the doorway, and your forehead is also dark. Simply put, you betrayed your husband a month ago, and this act led to..."

dieBefore she could finish speaking, Zhang Fen immediately stopped and hurriedly...Turning his head, he stared at the dead.The man said threateningly, "I'm warning you, don't...""Speak! Or I'll have someone deal with you."

I canRealizing Zhang Fen was serious, and seeing her walk back and stare intently at the dead...It seems that all that's left for people is death.If he utters another word, he will be killed.As if struck by lightning, I couldn't help but look at the dead again.One glance revealsThere is still no table.Emerging, just like that faceCalm...
