Chapter 7 Peach Blossom Tribulation
Wow, that explanation about body pain sounds pretty reasonable.
【Huh? Is that how it's explained? While it makes logical sense, how do you explain the baby crying that Almond Milk heard?】
So, does the so-called "bad romance" refer to that gambling-addicted, debt-ridden ex-boyfriend? Could it be that the voices Almond Dew heard were all his doing, created with recordings or something?
Lu Yao had no idea what recording was.
But in her previous life, she had seen far too many similar things.
After learning extraordinary skills from her master, he earnestly advised her:
"To become a Celestial Master, being proficient in divination and skilled in drawing talismans is merely the first step. True cultivation lies in seeing through all the phenomena of the world and understanding the subtleties of the human heart, so that one can find that sliver of divine secrets in the universe."
So, Lu Yao, who was only fourteen years old, resolutely went down the mountain.
She disguised herself as a young Taoist priest and embarked on a journey through the streets and alleys, telling fortunes and answering people's questions.
At that time, she encountered many tricks and gimmicks.
In the scheming and jealousy-filled inner court, a favored concubine deliberately hired a skilled ventriloquist to create the terrifying illusion of a vengeful spirit seeking revenge.
The eerie sounds and strange atmosphere drove the already guilty wife, who was burdened with the guilt of murder, to the brink of madness.
Lu Yao understood that in this new era she had just arrived in, new and exciting things were constantly emerging.
Take the phone she's currently fiddling with, for example; it can make all sorts of strange and wonderful sounds.
Making a baby cry shouldn't be too difficult.
So, following the comments in the live chat, she calmly said, "That's right, it's... something like a recording. Girl, you need to search your house carefully, examine your usual food and utensils one by one, and you'll definitely find some clues. The other party is taking advantage of your emotional vulnerability to break you down."
[That makes sense. Besides checking under the bed for a recording pen, it would be best to also examine your drinking cups. They might have been laced with hallucinogenic drugs. That would make everything make sense. We should trust science!]
[Seriously? This is too scientific! Are you here to combat feudal superstition?]
[I checked the ID, it's called Lonely Wolf, right? Not Xuanmen Anti-Fake Office?]
Master Xuancheng watched helplessly as the tide in the live stream began to turn in favor of exposing the frauds of the Xuanmen sect, and he was immediately displeased.
He coughed heavily and suddenly swung the peach wood sword in his hand. The Three Pure Ones Bell on the offering table rang out crisply without any wind.
Master Xuancheng glared angrily and shouted, "How dare this brat spout nonsense about the Peach Blossom Tribulation here!"
He steadily picked up a yellow talisman with two fingers, and the talisman spontaneously combusted in front of the camera without any flame.
The wisps of smoke rising from the ground mysteriously transformed into billowing black smoke.
Seeing the crowd of viewers exclaiming in amazement in the live stream, Master Xuancheng couldn't help but feel smug. He said sternly, "That young lady's life palace is afflicted with evil spirits, and her forehead is filled with yin energy. This is clearly caused by the resentment of aborted fetuses! This, uh... Lone Wolf, please stop misleading people here!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yao's lips curled up slightly.
"Just now, I observed that girl's face. Her life gate was reddish, her earlobes had a rouge-like blush, and the veins behind her ears were dark and intertwined with the threads of love. Her eyes had hooked tails, and the lines at the corners of her eyes slanted into her temples, resembling upside-down peach blossom branches. Her eyes had a winding, meandering quality, and her eyebrows concealed lines of heartbreak. What else could this be but a love triangle? If you can't even see these things, then I can only say that your skills are not yet refined enough, and you need to practice more."
Her series of professional and profound words instantly stunned everyone in the live broadcast room.
I've never heard so many technical terms before. I don't quite understand them, but they sound amazing.
[Who just took a screenshot? I didn't notice so many details when we were on the live stream—earlobes, veins behind the ears, wrinkles at the corners of the eyes? Is this for real? Can someone check it?]
[Me! Me! Me! I just took a screenshot and shared it with my friend! Let me see... it really does match what Lonely Wolf said! But it's really hard to spot if you don't look closely!]
[In just that short time, the lone wolf noticed so many details? What kind of eagle eyes do they have?]
[I'm speechless. My ex-boyfriend just cheated on me, and I just looked in the mirror and seem to match those facial features she described. Luckily, I broke up with him back then, or I probably would have been even worse off!]
I believe it now; it must have been that scumbag's doing.
Even LuLu Almond Milk, who had been connected with us earlier, chimed in, sounding surprised and uncertain:
[Thanks to this girl's suggestion, I found my ex-boyfriend's old phone hidden in the crack of the bed. It still had a little battery left, but I couldn't unlock it, didn't know the password, and wasn't even sure if the sound was from that phone! I found my cup, cosmetics, and other things, and I'm going to take them to the lab for testing tomorrow!]
Seeing that things had progressed so quickly, everyone in the live stream perked up instantly, and the chat exploded with a torrent of comments.
Wow! I think the truth is pretty obvious! That jerk probably set an alarm on his phone that's a baby crying, going off precisely every night. That's such a sneaky trick; he's practically trying to scare people to death!
[I also think it's possible the jerk set his phone to a baby crying sound as his ringtone and called the girl whenever she was home alone. That's incredibly malicious!]
I'm eagerly awaiting the test results for the cup; I can't wait a moment longer! I really want to know if it was drugged!
Wait a minute, are we still going to buy that top-grade talisman from Daoist Xuancheng?
When this question was raised, the chat in the live stream paused briefly.
Now it seems that it was most likely a scumbag man who was behind it all, so where is the vengeful spirit of the infant?
Since that's the case, there's naturally no need to buy talismans...
Regardless of whether the talisman in Xuancheng Daoist's hand is real or fake, there's a high probability that the money for Lulu Almond Milk can be saved.
Almond Milk didn't say anything more, probably focused on figuring out how to unlock the phone.
Master Xuancheng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
He was about to unleash his fury on the girl who had sabotaged him when he suddenly realized that while the discussion in the live stream was in full swing, the "Lone Wolf" had quietly left the live stream.
Master Xuancheng stood there, stunned, somewhat incredulous.
I was starting to wonder: Why aren't they taking advantage of my data usage?
Could he really be a hidden master?
Thinking about it this way, Master Xuancheng felt inexplicably apprehensive.
