Chapter 133: Sect Competition (Qing Chen)
The three people who had left the villa heard the crying, stopped, sighed, and left.
It was already noon, and they decided to have a meal first, and Qing Yanrou would go back to continue the competition of "Xiang" and "Divination".
There are many classifications of "Xiang", generally including five types such as "Seal Xiang", "Name Xiang", "Human Xiang", and "Tomb Xiang (Feng Shui)".
Due to the tight time schedule and heavy workload this time, the Daoist sect only set up the 'human appearance' type of competition.
Physiognomy is divided into two categories: face reading and palm reading. By observing the lines and complexion on the face and hands, one can know a person's fortune and health status.
Just like when they competed for their lives, they invited pilgrims from Baiyun Temple to serve as volunteers.
This time it was also in a private room, with a table and two stools.
Before Qing Yanrou entered, there was already someone sitting inside.
The person sitting there had his back to her, but he turned around when he heard the noise at the door.
When she saw clearly that it was Qing Yanrou, she was petrified.
After realizing what was happening, he stood up and was about to leave.
"Hey, isn't this Madam Bai? Why are you in such a hurry to leave when you see me?"
"Have you done anything wrong? Didn't you affectionately ask me to call you Aunt Yun before?"
Qing Yanrou closed the door, leaned against it, and looked at the somewhat flustered woman with a frivolous look.
"Yanrou, what are you talking about? I'm here to have my palm read. You're not a Taoist fortune teller, so of course I have to go out and find a Taoist fortune teller."
When Mrs. Bai saw that the door was blocked by her, she quickly suppressed the emotions on her face, and spoke with a forced calmness while pulling the corners of her mouth.
"What a coincidence! I am the Taoist priest who is here to read your fortune. Please take a seat."
Then she stood up straight, walked to the stool opposite her, sat down, and looked at her with interest.
When Mrs. Bai heard that she was the Taoist priest who came to read fortune-telling, the expression on her face was even more shocked than when she first saw her.
After all, when I first saw her, I thought she was here to have her fortune told, just like me, but she just walked into the wrong room.
But who would have thought that she was actually a Taoist priest?
So, could the sudden downfall of the Bai family be her doing?
Thinking of this, her body trembled involuntarily.
But then I thought that she was just a little girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, how could she know so much?
It's just a superficial understanding.
However, this was arranged by the famous Baiyun Temple in Beijing.
In just a few tens of seconds, Mrs. Bai's mind was in a thousand turns, and all kinds of guesses went through her mind.
Qing Yanrou guessed what she was thinking at the moment from her face.
But she is not in a hurry, she has plenty of time.
"Mrs. Bai, please take a seat."
"I, I can't do it. I'll go find other Taoist priests to see." After saying that, she was about to leave.
"sit down."
Qing Yanrou's voice lost its smile. Although she was very calm, just by saying "sit down" softly, Mrs. Bai felt a little more nervous.
She really didn't dare to go forward. To calm her inner panic, she turned around and went back to the stool.
But when she sat down, she finally came to her senses.
She didn't know why she took Qing Yanrou's words seriously and came back to sit down.
The more I couldn't figure it out, the more scared I became.
Her hands on her legs were stirring restlessly, and her palms began to sweat.
She couldn't control this feeling of panic.
Of course she couldn't control herself. It was Qing Yanrou who released a trace of spiritual energy that disturbed her mind.
Keeping her on edge will help her with what she's about to do next.
The people from the Taoist sect have always paid special attention to her. Every time the surveillance video of her room was shown, there would be a group of prominent people from the Taoist sect sitting behind them.
This time, they noticed through surveillance that the atmosphere here was a little strange. They wanted to come in and ask, but were stopped by an elder.
"Don't go. This little Taoist friend has some connection with this donor. Let her solve it herself."
"But wouldn't this be against the rules?"
The people nearby couldn't help but speak up when they heard this.
“Rules are dead, but people are alive.”
The leading elder said this lightly, and the others did not dare to raise any objections and could only echo him.
In the side room, looking at Mrs. Bai who was fidgeting in front of her, Qing Yanrou didn't expect her to be so uneasy.
Originally, she had only used a little trick to make her less guarded, but judging by her appearance, she still had something to hide.
"Madam Bai knows palmistry, doesn't she? Then extend your hand."
"Uh, I, I, I suddenly don't want to watch it anymore."
Mrs. Bai's hands, placed on her legs, were clasped together tightly with tension, and her fingers were turning white.
"Okay, then let's talk about eighteen years ago. Did Madam Bai know my mother, Qing Chen?"
"I don't know, I don't know—"
Hearing her question, Mrs. Bai's pupils shrank slightly and she bit her lower lip lightly with her teeth, although she had already controlled her emotions.
But when he said that, you could still hear the nervousness and anxiety.
"Then why do you want to hide when you see me? It was the same at the mall before, and it's the same here today. I haven't done anything wrong, so why are you hiding?"
Qing Yanrou's gentle tone made her heart tremble and she glanced around in panic.
"If you don't say it yourself, then don't blame me for being rude. Oh, and by the way, there's also your precious daughter Bai Xinyi."
"You don't know, she was targeted by the monster mandrill before, she was terrified. You said I'm going to randomly recruit another little ghost..."
"No, no, no, you can't! She's your sister!"
Mrs. Bai was completely frightened by her words, especially since it involved her only daughter, she became even more anxious.
"I'm not from the Bai family, my last name is Qing!"
She has never liked others linking her with the Bai family.
It was because of this relationship with the Bai family that he suffered a loss at the hands of Black Dragon last time.
"Blood ties cannot be erased, you—"
"Shut up! If you keep talking nonsense, don't I suggest you hire a little ghost to keep you company right now? Or do you think I'm kidding you?"
As Qing Yanrou finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew into the room.
Mrs. Bai, who was completely frightened by this scene, did not dare to say anything else this time and quickly said:
"I, I know Qing Chen!"
Qing Yanrou suppressed the evil spirit and motioned for her to continue.
"I, she and I were roommates in college. We were very close back then and we called each other sisters."
As the words came to her mind, Mrs. Bai recalled the memories buried deep in her heart. Following her memory, she saw the girl with a bright smile and always positive attitude - Qing Chen.
Just like her name, she is as beautiful as a flower and stunningly beautiful.
As soon as she entered the campus, she attracted the admiration of many male classmates.
At that time, Mrs. Bai's name was Li Yun and she was assigned to the same dormitory as Qing Chen. Unlike her who came from a poor and remote area, Li Yun came from a wealthy family and had been spoiled since childhood.
Li Yun was used to everyone's attention being focused on him. After entering university, other people's attention was no longer focused solely on him.
That was the first time she tasted the word jealousy.
