Jiang Yanxu didn't expect her to react like this. He frowned slightly and kept calculating with his fingertips.

This action looked particularly ethereal on him. He Ruixue held her chin and watched quietly. His hands were also perfect, with distinct joints and light blue veins hidden under the snow-white skin, like a turbulent ocean current under an ice field.

"Indeed, I can tell that you are destined to be an orphan, so there is really nothing to be nostalgic about."

He sat up straight again and advised, "Young comrade, you can't be so pessimistic. Look at me, I'm the exact opposite of you. I've been abandoned by heaven since birth, and have been entangled in all kinds of work since childhood. I can't keep any luck at all. I can be said to have a body with five leaks."

So I have to stay here the whole time, suppressing the evil spirit and setting up a magic circle to deceive the heavens in order to survive... It's so difficult, and I don't even think about dying, let alone you?"

He Ruixue was horrified. This was not the original owner's fate, but her own. This person was really something.

His face was nonchalant and mocking, "You are such a good Taoist priest at deceiving people, how come you didn't anticipate the sudden disaster that would befall your profession?"

As she spoke, she glanced him up and down. "It's already this hour, and you still dare to wear your Taoist robes and openly promote superstition. I think you're staying here not to deceive heaven and earth, but because you're afraid someone will come and arrest you and parade you through the streets, right?"

Jiang Yanxu smiled bitterly, "Who said he didn't predict it? My master even warned me several times a few years ago that a disaster was about to happen, and he took all my fellow disciples and fled to Southeast Asia for refuge."

The master also said that he was plagued by bad luck. If he took him along, he would either be stopped or have car problems along the way, or even have his ship capsize while crossing the ocean.

They didn't dare to gamble with the lives of their entire sect, so they simply left him alone in the city and exchanged most of their assets for gold as a preparation for making a comeback in a foreign country.

As compensation, a small portion of the assets were transferred to his name, so that he would have a place to stay when he returns to his hometown.

No way, can you really calculate it?

He Ruixue already believed him a little at this time, but he also understood that there was no kindness without reason, so he asked, "What do you want from me?"

"The layman is indeed a wise man."

Admiration flashed in his eyes, "Your luck has fluctuated greatly recently. I think you used some external objects, but you are too wasteful.

If you use it incorrectly, most of the luck stored in it will dissipate, and you'll only be able to use one-tenth or one-twelfth of it. If it were me, I'd use it sparingly and it would last at least a year."

Jiang Yanxu's eyes were filled with condemnation, and he was deeply saddened.

It's really a disaster. When he was a child, he had a master to protect him, so it was okay. But when he was first left behind, he choked when he drank tea and almost fell when he walked.

The bird droppings in the sky were aimed at his head, a wild cat rushed over and scratched his leg, and also cursed at him, and even wild dogs involved him in a fight, chasing him and biting him. What did he do to offend anyone?

Later, he could only use the cover of a funeral home to secretly perform the business of salvation for people. With the merits and the little luck of the dead, and the use of the evil spirit to deceive the world, he finally managed to recover to the level of a normal person.

But after changing his mind, he said, "Actually, this approach is not without benefits for you. Your flawless body is not tolerated by heaven and earth, because your luck is solid and cannot be stripped away. Even if heaven is murderous, it cannot directly eliminate you.

But everyone around you will be implicated, either dead or injured, and you will eventually be deserted by everyone until you suffer a mental breakdown and commit suicide, only then will it be considered as fulfilling its wish.

If you disperse most of the external luck, it is equivalent to giving back to the heaven and earth, and temporarily reconciling with it. Although this method only treats the symptoms and not the root cause, it is already the most effective way. It seems that you have a master behind you to help you. "

He Ruixue's face was grim, and she tried hard to remain calm. So even if she came, the fate of the He family would still be unchangeable?

No, she didn't believe that what she was doing now was in vain. Should she just wipe out the entire Sun family?

No, the problem lies with myself. If there is no Sun Lai Yi, there will be Li Lai Yi, Zhao Lai Yi... It is better to keep her and deal with her as she moves. It is much easier to deal with a person with a known background than to deal with an unknown existence.

Noticing her quickening heartbeat, Jiang Yanxu cleared the table and poured her a cup of tea. "Our conditions are limited, so I picked all the tea leaves from the mountains. They may not be very fragrant, but they have a good refreshing effect."

He Ruixue had no time to drink her tea at this moment. She took two sips and asked him, "How did you know I had the thing you wanted?"

"Really? I just wanted to trick you."

He blinked in surprise, looking somewhat lively. "It doesn't matter if there isn't one. You're different after all. We'll slowly but surely gain something by practicing inaction... Perhaps we have a common enemy."

"You mean..." She pointed to the sky.

"No, the Way of Heaven is to reduce the excess and provide for the deficiency, while the Way of Man is to reduce the deficiency and provide for the excess. The Way of Heaven is inherently heartless, originating from rules and operating within them. Yet, it is exploited by man and tainted by human greed.

I had a fortune-telling done earlier when I was free, and it might not be very accurate, but since you are here, I will do it again. Considering the cause and effect, the result might be more accurate."

As he spoke, he took out a few old copper coins and threw them forward casually. The coins rolled a few times before landing on the ground.

He glanced down at the hexagram and snorted solemnly, like an immortal in anger, overturning Mount Jade. "The wind from the marsh is too strong, Nine Three, the beams are crooked, it's ominous, too much is as bad as too little, the marsh water will flood the boat, and that will be a big mistake."

He counted on his fingers again, "It's hard to overdo it, and it's hard to walk on thin ice. The situation is changing and dangerous, and one wrong move will put the whole game at risk.

In March, the lucky ones will return, depriving everyone of their luck and turning it into their own. The public will be furious and their accumulated resentment will finally be released."

Jiang Yanxu looked at He Ruixue steadily, his eyes bright and clear as a deep pool. "Perhaps, you are the one who was born to meet this calamity."

"Bang!"

The cup next to He Ruixue was accidentally knocked over, and half of the tea spilled out.

His upper body remained motionless. He reached out to straighten the cup. Seeing the water stains on the table, he felt bitter and resentful. "Layman, could you please be more careful? Those lazy people in the hall don't listen to me. I'm the one who cleans here."

Then, Jiang Yanxu complained to her about how difficult it was to manage the funeral home and how everyone was ostracizing him. This was completely different from the charlatan who had just been in charge.

He Ruixue narrowed her eyes, trying to figure out which one was the real him.

"I'm just an ordinary person. I don't have that much ability. If you want to cooperate with me, you have to let me see your sincerity first, right?"

"Alas, it's not easy to fool female Buddhists nowadays. In the past, those people would force any medicine into her mouth as long as they were told that they were guaranteed to give birth to a boy."

He muttered in a low voice, and He Ruixue heard it clearly, "Humph, how smart is that male lay Buddhist you mentioned?"

"That's right. Otherwise, how could my master's aphrodisiac become such a hit? People are always vying for it everywhere. Oh, they are the breadwinners of the underworld. We rely on them for our livelihood. Don't slander them in your heart. It's a sin."

He Ruixue really couldn't understand why a banished immortal had a mouth.

I thought it was a silver wolf, but it turned out to be a Husky. Its funny temperament really can't be hidden.
