Chapter 938: Free Medicine (1)
Shen Miao had never imagined that the so-called master was actually the strange Taoist priest she had met once at Mingqi Putuo Temple. The strange Taoist priest's words that day had troubled Shen Miao for a long time, as if this person had discovered the secret of her two lives. However, when she later sent people to search for the Taoist priest's whereabouts, they searched the entire Dingjing City but could not find any trace of him.
Now that I think about it, it’s no wonder that I couldn’t find him. This Taoist priest actually traveled all the way to Longye in Daliang.
This made things a bit strange. According to Benyue, the brother and sister had met this Taoist priest several years ago. He had actually been in Longye a few years ago. It seemed as if he had been there for quite some time. Could he be from Daliang? Then why would he appear in Dingjing, the capital of Mingqi? He couldn't have traveled all the way back just to read those two fortune sticks for her, could he?
Shen Miao said: “Master…”
The strange Taoist priest looked at her, stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "My name is Chiyan. Madam, you are here to save someone, right? I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Luo Tan was startled and asked, "Master Chi Yan, did you know we were coming back to find you?"
Taoist Chi Yan smiled complacently, shook the fortune stick box on his waist, and the fortune stick box made a "crackling" sound. He said: "I also read my own fortune."
Shen Miao thought, this Taoist priest may be a bit eccentric, but he seems to have some real skills. For example, what he said at Putuo Temple makes a lot of sense. If he is the so-called master, it doesn't seem surprising. She said, "My husband is seriously injured. I heard that the Taoist priest can change fate, so I came here specially. I also ask the Taoist priest to save my husband's life. After the success, I will definitely reward him handsomely."
Fennel and the others were standing behind Shen Miao. After hearing what Shen Miao had just said, they seemed to know this strange Taoist priest. Although they were suspicious, now was not the right time to ask. Listening to Shen Miao's words, they suspected that she had gone crazy. "Defying the will of heaven and changing fate" was too mysterious. This Taoist priest looked like an ordinary person who grew up eating grains. Could it be that Shen Miao had been deceived by a swindler?
However, Shen Miao knew that the person who could tell that she had lived two lives, the person who could tell that she had been a queen in her previous life, and this strange Taoist priest, probably could not guess based on nonsense.
Hearing Shen Miao's words, the strange Taoist smiled and shook his head. As they got closer, everyone could see clearly that he was carrying a foreboding on his back and holding a fish basket in his hand. It seemed that he was going fishing. However, there was a line on the fishing rod, and the fish hook was straight. It would be strange if he could catch any fish like that. As expected, the fish basket was empty, which was really pitiful.
Seeing that he was still not responding to Shen Miao's question, Luo Tan became anxious and asked, "Master, can you save my brother-in-law?"
The Taoist priest placed the fish basket against the door, then straightened up, looked at Shen Miao deeply, and said, "The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. I cannot even reveal the secrets of heaven to my wife, so how can I dare to defy heaven and change my fate and suffer such a disaster?"
"But you saved Benyue's friend, that little brother." Luo Tan was puzzled: "Wouldn't that also be considered defying fate?"
"That's because the boy's life was not meant to end. God destined him to meet me, and also destined me to save his life." Taoist Chi Yan said.
Fennel and Star Anise were all stunned. They originally thought that it was just the hysteria of the brother and sister, but they didn't expect it to be true. Moreover, the Taoist priest in front of them also admitted that it was he who did it.
Shen Miao frowned slightly: "Then may I ask, Taoist priest, what is the fate between us?"
The Taoist priest chuckled and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."
