n“Master, I’m here to get an amulet.”
nIn other words, he did not want to listen to nonsense.
n
n
nCould Master Blue Lotus refuse him?
nHe handed an amulet to him. “Nothing can be hidden from Buddha. I hope this amulet can help you.”
nLu Yaohua accepted it happily and said, “Can I ask for another one for my son?”
nMaster Blue Lotus gave him another amulet and reminded him, “I already said this before. I…”
n
n
n“Thank you! Thank you, Master!”
nLu Yaohua thanked him impatiently and left.
nHe was not interested in listening to this person’s nonsense.
nAs Master Blue Lotus watched him leave, he shook his head and muttered, “Everything has a cause and an effect.”
n
n
nHe did not see any curse on Lu Yaohua. He only saw karma. In his opinion, no matter how many amulets he took with him, it was useless.
nHe had wanted to advise Lu Yaohua to repent, but it seemed like Buddha wanted him to suffer!
nAfter getting the amulets, Lu Yaohua did not ponder too much. He thought that everything would be fine, so his footsteps became much lighter.
nJust as he was leaving the main entrance, he passed by someone, and a lazy voice stopped him in his tracks.
n“This gentleman hasn’t been doing too well recently, has he? What you want most now is… money? Because you’ve lost a lot of money recently, you have sold everything you could.”
nLu Yaohua looked over and saw a middle-aged man in a gray Daoist robe taking a nap on a chair.
n
n
nHe did not even open his eyes.
nHe shook him suspiciously.
n“I’m not blind.”
nThe middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes and said, “As I expected, it looks like you’re my big boss today.”
nLu Yaohua had never believed in fortune-telling. He asked curiously, “Why? Are you waiting for me?”
nHe pressed his hat. “This person knows that I lack money without opening his eyes?” he thought.
nPerhaps he had guessed it.
n“I’ve been waiting for you all morning.”
n
n
nThe middle-aged man said confidently.
nLu Yaohua snorted disdainfully. “Are you lying to me? Who would come here if they are doing well? Besides, everyone in society lacks money nowadays.”
nThe middle-aged man was not angry. He waved at him to get closer.
nWith the intention of giving it a try, he leaned forward.
nThe middle-aged man pointed at his eyes and said, “Your eyes are bloodshot. One look and I can tell that you didn’t rest well. You are constantly in an angry state. Because of this, you are short of breath and have fainted before. Look at your nose and over here.”
nHe pointed at the mole on the right side of Lu Yaohua’s face and said, “You’ve been spending money and suffering recently. Bad things are happening, one after another. If you’re not careful, not only will you face a bloody disaster, you’ll also be thrown into jail.
nIn addition, there are some shortcomings among your people. They are arrogant and I’m sure they gloat whenever they accomplish something. However, such fleeting successes won’t last long. Sooner or later, it will be game over, but that’s not the biggest problem.
nThe more he said, the more Lu Yaohua frowned.
nHe had hit the nail on the head, but he suspected that this person had seen him on television.
nHe asked, “So what’s the biggest problem?”
n“There’s Yin Qi surrounding you, which is why you’re getting more and more unlucky. Did you take something unclean?”
nThe middle-aged man said seriously.
n“Something dirty?”
n
n
nLu Yaohua knew that he had never taken anything from the grave, but he suspected this person. “What do you think I took?”
nThe middle-aged man rubbed his chin and said, “It feels like a cemetery.”
n“Could it be that piece of land in the suburbs?” he wondered.
nLu Yaohua looked at this person suspiciously. Then he took out his phone and said, “Can you take a look at her face?”
nThe photo was of Tang Wenyi.
nThe middle-aged man thought for a moment and said, “Her nose is round—she was born into a rich family. She has high brows—strong self-esteem and action-oriented. Her eyes are also slightly sharp.
n“She conceals her own faults and is intolerant of little things. Her fate will affect the fortune of her son. I’m sure your son’s health is not good, right? However, you two do look like a married couple.”
nAll correct.
nLu Yaohua took out another photo and asked, “What about him?”
nThis time, it was Lu Ze.
nThe middle-aged man thought for a while and said, “His providence isn’t good! His brows are sunken and everything doesn’t go smoothly. Furthermore, he’s too scheming and offends others easily. His forehead is also sunken. He has a big temper and is erratic.
nIn addition, his eyebrows are shorter than his eyes. He’s often sick and has a short lifespan. He doesn’t look like he will live for long. Doesn’t his mouth look like a rat’s? Such a person is selfish and heartless like a rich second-generation heir. Is he your son? You two are very alike.”
nLu Yaohua actually wanted to show him Lu Ming’s photo, but he only had Tang Wenyi and Lu Ze’s photos on his phone.
n“Strange,” he thought.
n“How does this person know everything?”
nHe thought of a possibility and his eyes narrowed. “Tell me! Who sent you!? Did Lu Ming send you!”
nThe middle-aged man looked at him strangely and said, “Who is Lu Ming?”
n“Why else would you know so much?! Didn’t you investigate me beforehand?”
nLu Yaohua grabbed his collar and said, “Why did Lu Ming send you here?!”
nThe priest looked at Lu Yaohua like he was crazy. Then he pushed him away and said, “I thought that the big boss today is a normal person and I wanted to help you. It seems that you don’t need it.
nWhat an unlucky year. Let’s close the stall!”
nWith that, he took his chair and left.
nA colleague at the side said, “I think it’s better for you to believe his words. This person came here recently. However, he has business every time he comes over. When he packs up and leaves, business will stop immediately.
nWe also benefited from him and got quite a few more clients. When he came over this morning, someone wanted him to tell his fortune but he refused. I asked him curiously why, and he said that he was waiting for a big boss.”
nHe paused for a moment before continuing, “He was waiting for you, right?”
n“Is he really that amazing?”
nLu Yaohua was puzzled.
nThe other party nodded. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the other stall owners. They all know about this.”
nHe looked at the other onlookers and asked, “Am I right?”
nThey all nodded.
nLu Yaohua thought of the traveling Daoist priest that his wife mentioned. “Could I have met someone with real abilities?!” he wondered.
nAt the thought of this, he immediately chased after him. “Wait! Master! Wait!”
