Chapter 215 There is a True Taoist
When I find a suitable opportunity, I will quit my job and focus on fortune-telling. I will have more free time.
"Girl, let's make a good relationship."
Dai Qing looked at the old Taoist priest standing in front of her curiously. She almost laughed at the tuft of hair on his head. The few strands of hair were gray and so sparse that her scalp could be seen. The hair was not as thick as his beard.
The old Taoist priest was carrying a cloth bag with a peach wood sword in it, and holding a string of beads in his hand. His face looked pretty good, with a rosy glow.
Just by looking at him, Dai Qing couldn't help but be stunned. She thought he was a liar who made a living by doing this, but she didn't expect that he really had some luck.
They are both in the same line of work, but they do different things.
The Taoist master is good at Yin and Yang Feng Shui and is also an expert at catching ghosts.
A physiognomist mainly focuses on reading one’s face.
However, the man in front of me looks kind and gentle at first glance, but upon closer inspection he looks so mysterious that it is easy to overlook his appearance.
After making this discovery, Dai Qing was stunned and subconsciously focused her observation. From the moment she decided to become a fortune teller, there was no face that she could not see clearly.
After concentrating, I found that this person's Fortune Palace was round and full, with a faint golden glow, like five stars shining on him, and he actually had merits and virtues.
The Fude Palace is located above the Tiancang, or eyebrow corner, and corresponds to the Dige, or chin, and belongs to people with noble virtues.
"Master, is this karma?"
Dai Qing looked at him and curiously looked at the equipment on him. She was very curious about how this person earned merit.
"Please give me a favor, young lady." The old Taoist smiled slightly and nodded.
"Avoid any food?"
"Taoists do not eat cows, dogs, turtles, and wild geese, but everything else is fine." The old Taoist said softly, his tone gentle.
"That's easy. There's a good stir-fried noodle restaurant up ahead. I'll take you there." Dai Qing didn't ask too many questions and led the group forward.
The old Taoist followed Dai Qing and looked at her graceful demeanor with a gentle expression. "I think you are very smart and intelligent, not just an ordinary person."
"Oh, what's so special about it?" Dai Qing glanced at him with a surprised look.
"The luck of the young friend from the Poor Taoist Temple must be that of a person from the Xuanmen sect." The old Taoist looked at her and cupped his hands. "My common name is Liang Zhiming, and my Taoist name is Zhen, the abbot of Quanzhen Temple."
Dai Qing: “…”
Really?
Is this name serious?
"Master Liang, I am just a physiognomist, not a Taoist."
"You're actually a fortune teller. There are so many talented people these days. My trip down the mountain is well worth it." Master Liang looked at Dai Qing with shining eyes.
An outstanding astrologer and geomancer can complete his studies in twenty years, but for a physiognomist to become a physiognomist, it would take at least forty years, and at most fifty years or even longer.
He didn't expect that he would meet such a talented young fortune teller in the market. It was really a coincidence.
"Next month, the Xuanmen will hold a seminar in this city. Are you interested in participating?"
"Seminar?" Dai Qing was curious.
"In recent years, the Xuanmen sect has been in decline, and the talents of each sect have dwindled. However, as a folk culture, a seminar is held every year, which is actually the day for the people of the Xuanmen sect to get together."
"Studying how to exorcise demons?"
You know what, Dai Qing was really curious. She had never seen anyone like him since she was reborn.
I wonder where those people are hiding in the deep mountains and forests?
"My friend, you are joking. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is not allowed to become a spirit. The policy does not allow it. But it is still possible to do feng shui or something like that."
"Alas, ever since the emphasis has been placed on science, our profession has been regarded as feudal superstition and is not allowed to be widely spread. It was only last year that a folk culture museum was established as a folk culture, and we old folks finally had a legitimate identity."
"Now, our folk culture is not only funded by the government, but most importantly, we all have certificates and can be invited to attend various activities as heavenly masters and earthly masters."
Liang Guanzhu looked at Dai Qing's curious eyes and couldn't help laughing. It had been a long time since he met such an interesting person.
I really want to take it back and show it to my old friends.
There are still talented people in Xuanmen physiognomy.
"Here, here's the invitation. Take it. Even if you don't attend, you can still go for a stroll."
He is a member of the Folk Culture Museum and can come and go freely even without an invitation.
Dai Qing took over a gold-plated invitation card with a Bagua diagram printed on it, which looked very strange.
There is still half a month left.
“I may not have time to go.”
After Dai Qing read it, she handed it back to him.
"Don't waste resources on unpredictable things. Give them to those in need, right?"
"If it's given to you, it's yours. This is fate. It's your freedom to go or not."
Liang Guanzhu smiled and shook his head.
"However, I still suggest you go and take a look. Maybe you will get a different idea. Of course, apart from the seminar, you are welcome to come to me anytime. Even if I am not there, someone will notify me."
"Thank you very much." Dai Qing took the invitation and the two walked to the noodle shop. Dai Qing ordered him a bowl of shredded pork hot pot noodles. "Eat slowly. We'll see you again if we're lucky."
"Don't worry, little friend. We will see each other again."
Listening to the other party's hearty answer, Dai Qing couldn't help but sigh. Apart from anything else, people who know how to read faces don't worry about being deceived when it comes to judging people.
It is much easier to judge the quality of a person by looking at his or her facial features.
After returning home, Dai Qing put the invitation on the table, washed up and went to bed.
The night shift is much quieter. Apart from a few older sisters sitting together gossiping, the rest of the security workers would hide in the corner and take a nap after finishing their work.
After two night shifts, it's time to rest.
Dai Qing returned home in her work clothes, took a shower, did laundry, and cleaned. After completing the whole process, she fell asleep.
When I looked again, it was three o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as he walked out of the yard yawning, he was stunned, "He Ning? How did you get in?"
"Hey~, I knew you were sleeping after the night shift, so I didn't disturb you. I climbed over the wall to come in." He Ning sat up from the rocking chair and chuckled.
Seeing Dai Qing's furrowed brows, he quickly raised his hand.
"Don't worry, I sat down right away when I came in, without even moving from my bed. If you don't believe me, ask Xiao Hei? He looked at me and went back to sleep, too."
Dai Qing: “…”
Xiao Hei, the traitor, didn't even say a word when a stranger climbed over the wall and came in.
"We are friends. We are so familiar with each other that Xiao Hei will definitely not disturb your sleep."
Dai Qing crossed her arms, hugged her shoulders, glared at Xiao Hei, and turned to look at him, "The bike is covered in dust, let's get rid of it quickly?"
I heard that this type of motorcycle needs regular maintenance, otherwise it will rust if left alone for a while.
"We are friends after all. How can someone just come and chase us away?" He Ning said, and then he just slumped down in the rocking chair. "Let's go out for dinner together tonight. You don't have many friends anyway."
Dai Qing was silent for a moment. What nonsense! Who said she had no friends?
Juanzi is her childhood friend and they have a very good relationship.
