True Feng Shui Master: She Really Knows How to Read the Hexagrams

A powerful Feng Shui master wakes up in the body of Lin Zhiluo, a tragic supporting character who is so poor she can't even afford to eat.

To survive, she reluctantly starts a live stream...

Chapter 55 Possessed by Gu

"Your name is Xia Wenlan? That's a very nice name," Lin Zhiluo complimented.

"Thank you." Xia Wenlan nodded.

"The divination indicates that you like each other. You like her, and she likes you. You're just one step away from making your relationship official. There's no problem. Go for it."

Behind the camera, Xia Wenyun had a headache. Looking at his younger brother, who was tied to the sofa, he asked with some hesitation, "Master, what happens if a man has someone he likes, but suddenly changes his affections to someone else?"

“It’s simple, he’s fallen for another woman,” Lin Zhiluo said.

"There are some strange things I can't say here. Master, can I say them in private?" Xia Wenyun was a little troubled. His younger brother was so concerned about his reputation. He didn't know how uncomfortable he would feel if many people knew about the joke he had made.

Lin Zhilu nodded: "Of course."

Lin Zhiluo said to the viewers in the live broadcast room: "That concludes today's three divinations. See you all tomorrow."

[Hmm? Is there anything my esteemed fans can't hear?]

[You won't let me listen? I'm going to throw a tantrum! I have absolutely no resistance to guys with nice voices, and now you're telling me you want to chat alone?]

[I can't allow this! My daily happiness comes from watching Master Lin's live stream. Why did today go by so fast?]

Lin Zhilu ignored the comments trying to persuade her to stay and immediately closed the live stream.

Xia Wenyun immediately sent her Green Bubble's contact information to Lin Zhiluo in the background and added a note: Master Lin, I am the third fortune teller tonight.

Lin Zhiluo readily accepted Xia Wenyun's green bubble.

Xia Wenyun immediately posted a video showing a handsome, tall boy tied to a sofa.

The boy seemed to be in great pain, trying to break free of the ropes but with limited ability.

Xia Wenyun sent a voice message: "Hello Master Lin, this is Xia Wenyun, and this is my younger brother Xia Wenlan. He has been acting very strangely lately. He has a girl he likes, and our two families know each other, but one day he suddenly fell in love with another girl."

“At first, his behavior was just normal liking, and my family didn’t criticize him too much. We just thought it was because he wasn’t meant to be with the girl he knew.”

"But my brother changed later. He became irritable and even said hurtful things to the girl he used to like."

“If I hadn’t come back and seen them arguing, and my brother’s expression was so pained and distraught, I wouldn’t have noticed the problem.”

Lin Zhiluo asked, "Why are you tying him up?"

"Because he not only gave the family property to the girl he was madly in love with, he also took the family's household registration book to marry her."

"Just lock him up, why tie him up?" Lin Zhiluo kept watching the video Xia Wenyun sent, and she slowed down the video speed.

Sure enough, one time when Xia Wenlan was turning around, she noticed that Xia Wenlan's eyes looked strange.

She had seen people like that before.

Lin Zhiluo replied to Xia Wenyun: "Your brother is under a spell."

"Gu?" Xia Wenyun was startled. "The kind of Gu from novels?"

"Yes." Lin Zhiluo saw that Xia Wenyun knew, so she didn't have to give him a detailed explanation.

"But your brother is in more danger right now," Lin Zhiluo told Xia Wenyun the truth.

"Master Lin, please speak." Xia Wenyun's gentle voice remained unchanged, but his eyes were icy as he looked at his younger brother on the sofa.

This is their younger brother, whom they spoiled growing up. The only reason he's in this state is because his parents aren't home. If they were, I don't know how much they would pity him.

His younger brother had always been a well-behaved child, so he knew that these outrageous things weren't his true intentions.

"The other party is very domineering. They used the Heartless Gu on your brother, which is the most poisonous type of all love Gu. Your brother currently only likes her and only listens to her."

Now that things have turned out like this, Xia Wenyun can't even imagine what the future will be like.

Lin Zhiluo continued to ask, "You said your brother has someone he likes, and he always speaks coldly and sarcastically to that person, saying things he doesn't mean. Have you noticed any physical discomfort he experiences after doing these things?"

“He keeps saying his heart hurts, but when he went to the hospital for a checkup, they found nothing wrong.”

"It's the Heart-Eating Heart-Severing Gu." Lin Zhiluo felt a pang of jealousy. How could such a vicious thing exist in this world?

"As the name suggests, if the person under the Gu curse goes against the will of the one who cast the Gu curse, then she will suffer the pain of having her heart devoured, and over time her heart will become empty."

Xia Wenyun suddenly stood up, clenching her other fist. "If his heart is empty, my brother will die?"

"Yes and no," Lin Zhiluo said ambiguously.

“Once your heart is empty, your brother will completely lose his will and become a walking corpse under the control of the one who cast the Gu. As long as the one who cast the Gu is willing to take care of him for one more day, he can live one more day.”

Lin Zhiluo's voice suddenly turned cold: "If the other party gets tired of your brother, it would be easy to kill him. The Gu worms in his body will still survive, and we can use them again next time."

Having understood Lin Zhiluo's explanation, Xia Wenyun said, "Once you're infected with a Gu worm, it's like signing an unequal master-servant contract. If I want you to die, you have no choice but to die."

"Yes," Lin Zhiluo affirmed.

Xia Wenyun suddenly asked, "Since Master Lin knows these things, can he also help my brother get rid of the Gu worms?"

Lin Zhilu thought for a moment and asked, "I'm in Beijing now. Where are you? If you're in another city, it might take some time."

“I live in Beijing. If you don’t mind my intrusion, Master Lin, please come over tonight. My home is a 20-minute walk from Jinghua Community.”

Knowing he had been somewhat presumptuous, he said, "Master Lin, I'm very worried about my brother. You can name your price." As long as Xia Wenlan could recover, his family wouldn't hesitate to offer fifty million or even a hundred million.

"Okay, the sooner it's resolved, the more convenient it will be." Lin Zhiluo agreed with him, after all, he had someone he truly liked and there was still a misunderstanding.

She got up to tidy up and realized she didn't have much, except for her cell phone, which was the most valuable thing she had.

She thought to herself that the income from live streaming was quite considerable, and she had a lot of money on hand. This weekend, she would first go to the antique market and then buy some cinnabar and yellow paper.

None of the ones she had were very useful, as they could only hold a limited amount of spiritual energy. What she wanted were talismans with abilities that could last longer.

A short while later, Xia Wenyun sent word that she was already waiting at their doorstep.

Lin Zhiluo went downstairs at a leisurely pace. She didn't know much about cars in this world, but when she entered the car and saw the starry sky ceiling, she knew that this car was very valuable.

"Master Lin, thank you for your help today," Xia Wenyun said politely, showing no disrespect for Lin Zhiluo because of her youth.
