Chapter 316: Encounter with Jiang Li
After returning home, Dai Qing simply prepared the dishes and marinated the lamb chops with spices.
I went back to the living room, sat on the sofa, and practiced my skills with my legs crossed.
I have been very busy these past few days and have not practiced my mental skills for two or three days.
After a short Zhoutian, a layer of sweat appeared on my forehead and I felt refreshed.
Dai Qing took a hot shower and since it was still early, she went out for a walk with her small bag.
The place where she lives is very close to those cultural ancient streets, characteristic alleys, and some ancient buildings and other attractions, and you can walk there.
Just strolling around, you can feel the simplicity and heaviness brought by the ancient buildings.
When passing by a triangular park, Dai Qing found many people gathered together, seemingly arguing about something.
He leaned in closely and listened to a few words, then he understood clearly.
"Aren't you a liar? You asserted that he would get rich, but now he has a broken head and is looking for you to settle the score. It's all your fault."
"Of course you are. You are not a good fortune teller, yet you dare to stay here. You are really brave. Aren't you afraid that someone will come after you?"
"You are overconfident. It's too late to regret now. With your level, you should just move on and avoid being attacked by others."
Listening to the chaotic tone of the crowd, the old man who was surrounded in the middle stroked his beard and looked at everyone calmly, without any sign of anger.
When Dai Qing saw him through the gap in the crowd, she couldn't help but be stunned. Isn't this the fortune teller Jiang Li?
After we parted in Hangzhou, I didn't expect that he would come to the capital, set up a fortune-telling stall here, and was besieged.
At this moment, the man with the gauze wrapped around his head pointed at him angrily.
"Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"
The divine fortune teller Jiang Li looked up at him.
"The day before yesterday, I saw that your Wealth Palace and Silk Palace were rosy and bright. You will have some money coming in recently, but you will have such money only if you meet a noble person. But you became greedy and wanted to keep it all for yourself."
"You were greedy and offended the noble, which led to the bloody disaster. As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. This is your fate."
Listening to Jiang Li's analysis, the gauze man was stunned, with a guilty look in his eyes, but he still held his head high, looking a little timid.
"You're talking nonsense. You said you were going to make money and I was waiting to receive it. But now I'm not only injured, but I've also spent a lot of money. A liar is a liar. No matter how cunning you are, you can't change the outcome of your miscalculation."
"I won't argue with fools. The money has already passed through your hands, and it is your greed that has caused you to lose it. You should ask yourself, the noble helped you make money, not only did you not appreciate it, but you also wanted to embezzle the share that was promised to you in advance. You are the one who caused this situation."
After hearing Jiang Li's reminder, the people watching the excitement were suddenly stunned. They turned to look at the gauze man's red face and were speechless for a moment.
There are still such shameless people?
It's such a miserable situation, I thought it was so pitiful, but now I think about it, there are only two words to describe it: it's what I deserve.
"As the saying goes, appearance is determined by the mind, and circumstances change with the mind. Your wealth palace is moist with a bright yellow color, which is indeed a sign of wealth, but you have evil thoughts in your heart, which led to your financial loss and disaster. In the final analysis, it is all your own fault."
Dai Qing stood in the crowd with a cold tone.
When everyone heard her speak, they immediately made way and looked at her.
The divine fortune teller Jiang Li looked at Dai Qing who suddenly appeared, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he stood up leisurely.
"My dear Dai, how are you?"
"Master Jiang, we are destined to be together."
Seeing his indifferent expression, Dai Qing chuckled. The area around his forehead and mouth was red, so he would be troubled by gossip in the near future and it would be unfavorable for him to go out.
The gauze man looked at Dai Qing who suddenly appeared and immediately glared at her fiercely.
"Where did you come from? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was ready to fight at any time.
"I just can't stand your greedy face, so I stand up for justice."
Dai Qing looked at him with an indifferent expression.
She didn't take this aggressive attitude seriously at all.
"Master Jiang is right. It was your own impulsive decision that led to your financial ruin. Everything stems from your greed."
Dai Qing stopped talking and turned to look at everyone.
"If you don't believe it, just go and find out what he did these past two days. Since he was beaten, he certainly couldn't hide it. After asking, it will become clear."
"People who have confidence are naturally not afraid of being called upon to settle accounts."
Everyone listened to Dai Qing's explanation and thought it made sense. They all looked at the gauze man with contempt.
"You guys are greedy, and you want to find someone else to take the blame. Isn't that too immoral?"
"That's right. If they are just talking nonsense, they won't be waiting for you to come here. If they dare to stand here, they must have confidence."
"This guy is a disgrace."
The gauze man watched the wind change direction and his mouth trembled with anger.
"You know nothing. Making money is making money, losing money is losing money. What does it have to do with a change of heart?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone became dissatisfied, especially the young men, who rolled up their sleeves and wanted to beat him up again.
"Asshole, we just can't stand people like you who bully the weak and fear the strong. If you have the guts, why don't you practice with us? I don't believe that we can't clean up your dirty heart."
The gauze man noticed that everyone looked unfriendly, and with a red face he took a step back, pointed at Master Jiang, and turned away angrily.
The excitement died down, and people offered a few words of comfort before dispersing.
Jiang Lichong bowed to Dai Qing and said, "Thank you, Dai, for helping me out."
"You're too polite, Master Jiang. You can handle it even if I don't show up."
Dai Qing really doesn't dare to take credit for this.
It's obvious that this old man is a man with rich life experience, and it must be common for him to travel around the world.
He knows better than anyone how to handle any matter, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is a seasoned expert.
"After we parted in Hangzhou, I didn't expect that Xiangshi Jiang would come to the capital."
"I have always been a casual person. I have been traveling for many years and I am used to traveling between cities."
Jiang Li looked at Dai Qing and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
"It seems that Miss Dai left the Hangzhou Cultural Exchange Conference early. Did something happen?"
Originally, he didn't care whether Dai Qing was at the meeting, but when he accidentally heard someone talking about her, he realized that the little girl had already left.
Dai Qing smiled as she listened to Jiang Li's question.
"I went to Hangzhou originally because of an invitation from Taoist Zhen You to broaden my horizons. After seeing it, I stopped bothering him and set off on my way back."
"You are a blessed person, having avoided some unnecessary troubles."
Jiang Li nodded, with a smile in his eyes.
This girl is really sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. She heard the news early and left early. Otherwise, with the Yushan Sect's entanglement skills, it would be difficult to escape.
Hearing Jiang Li's pointed tone, Dai Qing was silent.
"Trouble? I don't quite understand."
