Chapter 60 Shu Yu the Great Deceiver
Shu Yu sighed, looked up at Master Yu standing in front of him, and said, “Please don’t make things difficult for me, benefactor. Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, otherwise I will also suffer a backlash. Before I left, my master repeatedly told me not to go against the will of Heaven. Please make way, benefactor. I am leaving now. Please just consider me a charlatan and not to be trusted.”
The more she said that, the less likely Master Yu was to let her go.
Even if Shu Yu really is a con artist, as long as what she says is inaccurate, Master Yu has plenty of ways to deal with her.
But if what she said is true, then wouldn't he have missed a chance to save his life?
Master Yu became respectful, "As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Since I have met the Taoist priest, it means that this is the will of Heaven. How can you say that it is against the will of Heaven?"
"This..." Shu Yu frowned, still looking troubled.
"Please enlighten me, Daoist Master, where does this malevolent energy come from, and what is the cause and effect behind it?"
Shu Yu finally let out a deep sigh, "Never mind."
She looked around and then at the Yu family shop behind her. "Please write a character so I can test your skills."
Master Yu naturally had no objection. After entering the shop, he took out paper and pen and wrote a single character.
Shu Yu looked up and exclaimed, "A child? It's truly an ominous sign." She really had been longing for a child.
"What do you mean?"
Shu Yu pointed to the characters above, "Please look, benefactor. The character '孩' (child) has a '子' (child) on the left, indicating that the cause and effect of this evil energy is related to offspring. The character '亥' (pig) on the right is the last of the twelve earthly branches, corresponding to the Qian trigram, the sixth yin. At this time, everything is pure white; earth becomes cold here, and metal becomes chilling, which is inauspicious. Furthermore, the character '亥' combined with '马' (horse) forms '骇' (shài), meaning horrified or startled. It implies something shocking, like raging waves, all signs of an unfavorable situation. I think this evil energy is also related to the horse. Those who want to harm you either have the zodiac sign of the horse or the surname 'horse,' indicating a close connection with the horse."
Master Yu was stunned. He hadn't thought anything of it before, but now, looking at the word again, he felt a chill run down his spine.
"Does the Taoist priest know where the person who wants to harm me is right now?"
Shu Yu continued pointing to the character, "Hai belongs to the northwest, so this evil energy comes from the northwest. It also belongs to water, so the place where evil people are must be not far from water. The numbers corresponding to the character Hai are 1, 4, 6, 10, and 12. You can check the doorman's number to see if it contains one of these numbers."
She looked at the top of Master Yu's head again and suddenly frowned. "This evil aura is getting stronger and stronger. It's an evil aura that seeks to kill for money. Someone is after your family's property. You should head northwest as soon as possible. It might not be too late."
She spoke with such conviction that even though Mr. Yu had previously suspected her of being a fraud, he became worried under her urgent expression.
"Would you mind coming with me to take a look, Taoist priest?" Master Yu asked, wanting to verify whether Shu Yu's words were true or false. Having someone by his side would provide some protection.
Shu Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded solemnly, "Please, benefactor."
Master Yu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked out of the shop.
Then they started walking northwest. The northwest of the county town is near the water, which is the area around the Wenmo River.
Wait a minute, it seems Master Geng also lives in that area.
Therefore, it would be a good opportunity to visit Master Geng and ask him to take a look at the Taoist priest beside him. If he is a fraud, Master Geng will definitely be able to tell.
