Chapter 387: Sedan Chair

He wanted to perform a divination, but it was not easy to find human bones in this little fishing village on Apricot Island. Li Huowang could only use his own—fortunately, after the divination, the bone wasn't damaged.

After using his own arm bone to complete the divination, Li Huowang carefully reinserted the cracked bone back into the flesh.

"Next is to go and find the place where the bone is cracked..." Li Huowang muttered to himself as he walked towards the seaside village.

The village was small; a short walk was all it took to encounter an acquaintance.

He saw a sallow-faced woman with her daughter buying mantou in the distance. She hesitated for a long time and finally bought herself a coarse grain mantou, and a half-piece of brown sugar mantou for her daughter.

Seeing how destitute the mother and daughter were, Li Huowang's heart softened. With a light flick of the reins, he steered the horse carriage closer.
