"Oh..." Qi Yu lowered her head thoughtfully, smiling as she patted each child's head.
The children no longer looked as frightened as when they were displaced, and the two elderly people came over, took her hands, and expressed their gratitude.
Qi Yu had never seen such a scene before, and kept repeating the same old phrases like "You're welcome" and "It's my pleasure."
He finally managed to escape their encirclement by making an excuse that he had something to talk to Yi Xiangfeng about. He also tucked the little black bird and the green bird lying on the ground into his arms and walked into Yi Xiangfeng's room with a dry laugh.
Yi Xiangfeng seemed to have guessed what was going on, and looking at Qi Yu's still slightly red eyes, he asked, "Fairy, have you encountered some trouble?"
Qi Yu glanced at him and said, "It's already been resolved."
"That's good."
The room became quiet for a moment.
Qi Yu lowered her eyes and pondered. Chu Mo was indeed a cunning person. Even if he was not sure if it was her, he still called Li Daogu. Even after watching Li Daogu chase after her substitute, he was not at ease and stayed in the same place to wait for her to come to him.
She only managed to escape because Chu Mo didn't know much about her as a transmigrator. Next time, she probably won't be so easy to fool.
besides……
Another beautiful face appeared before Qi Yu's eyes.
Heart-burning.
It's unclear whether it's because when she watched "Burning Heart," she only used the perspective of the female protagonist, Burning Heart.
She always thought that Fenxin was a simple, kind, and naive girl, but in the original owner's memories, the female lead seemed to occasionally show some aspects that were not in line with her character.
For example, suddenly turning cold or showing a provocative smile to the original owner.
Otherwise, the original owner wouldn't have become so thoroughly corrupted.
That's weird, really weird.
In the novel "Burning Heart Calamity," the female protagonist always treated the supporting female character "Qi Yu" with warmth and gentleness, like a younger sister. So why did she act in the original owner's memories in a way that was even more vicious than the original owner, the vicious supporting female character?
There must be more secrets hidden here that she doesn't know.
But one thing is certain: neither Chu Mo nor Fen Xin are people she can afford to offend right now.
Even if we want to explore the reasons behind this, we should wait until she is fully capable before making any plans.
I should focus on my cultivation first; who knows how long I'll have to live like this, constantly hiding and running away...
"Fairy."
Yi Xiangfeng suddenly spoke, interrupting Qi Yu's thoughts.
Qi Yu suddenly looked up and asked, "What is it?"
“I once studied some divination techniques and am quite accurate. Fairy, we are destined to meet. Why don’t I take a look at your fortune?” Yi Xiangfeng took out a few tortoise shells from his sleeve and smiled slightly. “The two times I’ve met you, Fairy, you have given me a sense of unease. Perhaps I can answer your questions.”
"Divination?"
Upon hearing these two words, Qi Yu immediately thought of modern tarot cards, astrology, fortune telling, and the like, automatically associating them with scammers who only spout nice-sounding platitudes.
but……
Qi Yu glanced at Yi Xiangfeng from head to toe. This was the world of cultivation, so if it were really about divination and fortune telling, there was some truth to it.
I just didn't expect this scholar to actually know...
"If you don't mind the trouble, could you help me calculate it?"
Despite saying that, Qi Yu didn't actually intend to believe it too much.
"Alright, please close your eyes, fairy. Open them only after I say the divination is over. Please also release these two little pets."
"Don't you need my birth date and time?"
Yi Xiangfeng's lips curled up. "No need."
So mysterious...
Despite inwardly complaining, Qi Yu still left Xiao Hei and the green bird outside the door and obediently closed her eyes.
A rustling sound arose.
The young man raised his hand and removed the blindfold covering his left eye.
In the dimly lit room, the young man's left eye shone with a deep blue like the sea.
He tossed the tortoise shell aside, his hands gesturing wildly, making several mysterious and complex hand gestures before he stared intently at the girl with her eyes closed, his eyes shimmering as if he could see her future through her.
Countless illusions appeared in his eyes.
The young man's eyes widened suddenly, filled with disbelief.
Yes...that is...
Qi Yu, whose eyes were closed, heard his rapid breathing and was about to open them when Yi Xiangfeng covered her eyes with his hands.
Qi Yu asked with some concern, "Young Master Yi, what's wrong? Did the divination predict something bad?"
The young man was panting heavily, tears welling up in his eyes. A few tears fell from his eyes, but miraculously they turned into lustrous silver-white pearls and rolled to the ground.
He ignored the pearls, calmed his breathing, and said softly, "No, it's very good, very good."
The girl curled the corners of her lips and let out a soft "Aww".
I knew she was just good at saying nice things.
The large hand covering his eyes was removed. Qi Yu blinked and looked at Yi Xiangfeng, who was wearing an eye patch. Still curious about what he would say, she asked, "What did Young Master Yi foresee?"
“Many.” Yi Xiangfeng lowered his eyes, then suddenly smiled, his eyes crinkling as he looked at the girl in front of him. He pointed to the tortoise shells arranged in strange shapes on the table and said, “But the diviner cannot reveal the secrets of heaven. I can only tell the fairy… the road ahead is arduous, but it is also bright and promising.”
Qi Yu looked at the strangely shaped tortoise shell for a while, nodded to confirm that she couldn't understand it, "The way it's arranged is so strange, it really makes me feel that my road ahead is difficult, but it's also bright and promising, so I'll just take your good wishes as a blessing."
"I've been bothering you for quite a while now, so I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, Qi Yu turned to leave.
"If possible, please..."
Suddenly, the young man's voice came from behind her again. Qi Yu turned around in confusion, "What?"
Yi Xiangfeng stood still, his eyes seemingly filled with countless words he wanted to say, but were blocked by some invisible force.
The young man, with a frail appearance, opened and closed his lips, trying hard to say something, but Qi Yu couldn't hear anything.
Her eyes flickered, and suddenly a possibility occurred to her.
Could it be that Yi Xiangfeng really foresaw her future and wanted to give her a hint?
However, due to the laws of the world, these words are not allowed to be spoken!
Qi Yu excitedly took two steps closer, staring at the young man's moving lips, trying to discern what he was saying.
But that won't work!
No matter how she looked at it, she couldn't understand what Yi Xiangfeng was saying.
Yi Xiangfeng looked at her and sighed deeply. This time, Qi Yu finally heard what he said.
"I cannot defy the will of Heaven, but, fairy, please hold onto hope. You bear an unimaginable burden on your shoulders. Please, do not let it crush you."
The young man's gaze was distant and seemed to hold a deep meaning.
"I will... stay at the starting point and wait for you."
Qi Yu stood there, staring at him blankly for a long time, before walking out without saying a word.
She grabbed the green-feathered parrot and the little black dog that had been eavesdropping by the door, one sentence echoing in her mind—
Riddler, get out of my world!
