Chapter 53
In order to verify whether this tactic works, Wei Chi and the manager who presided over the meeting also came to Yifeng's live broadcast observation room.
Compared with Li Zaiming, an outsider, Wei Chihe and the manager looked much calmer.
The two looked at each other.
"Maybe she saw through our plan?"
"Nothing. Even if she saw through it, it's useless. We didn't leave any traces here. I want to see how she responds."
At the critical moment, Li Zaiming still noticed Wei Chi's unusual behavior and looked at the two of them with inquiring eyes.
But the two of them stopped talking.
But they had a tacit understanding. Ordinary practitioners of the esoteric sect typically relied on face reading, palmistry, and birth charts for divination. Even Yu Lanlan, with her extraordinary talent, could only use mathematical calculations at best. But this situation was incredibly complex. Even if Yu Lanlan could deduce part of the answer, the rest, unknown even to the patient himself, was unknown. How could she handle it?
Thinking of this, the two of them smiled in tacit understanding. Li Zaiming felt as if he had been excluded, but he knew in his heart that if Yifeng hadn't been there, he wouldn't have been able to say anything, so he tactfully kept his mouth shut.
-
In fact, it was the same as what Wei Chi and others thought.
When Yu Lanlan said that this was not the patient's birth date, the patient admitted it directly.
"You might be right, because I grew up in an orphanage. This is the rough guess of my birth date by the orphanage's mother after she happened to pick me up."
After hearing this, the audience's restless hearts calmed down instantly.
[So that's how it is...]
But what no one noticed was that after hearing what the patient said, Yu Lanlan shook her head gently again.
Afterwards, Yu Lanlan carefully observed the patient's face and found that the traces of plastic surgery completely covered the patient's real facial features, making it extremely difficult to see anything from them.
"Can you show me your hand?"
The patient paused for a moment and obediently extended his hand to Yu Lanlan.
Yu Lanlan took it and looked at it. Sure enough, the other party's hands were also full of traces of high technology.
After looking at both hands, Yu Lanlan frowned.
"Why did you even get plastic surgery on your hands?"
The patient showed an awkward expression and said, "Because... because I think my hands are ugly, and I want them to be more perfect."
Yu Lanlan realized that the other party seemed to be hiding something, but she did not get to the bottom of it.
The audience also noticed the clues.
[Shh… Why is this so weird? Facial plastic surgery is fine, but what's so special about the hands? The problem is, the birth date and horoscope are also fake.]
[Why do I feel like someone has set a trap for Lanlan?]
When this was mentioned, many people became suspicious.
When Li Zaiming saw this situation, he immediately sent out the navy to guide them.
As a psychologist, I should be able to help patients solve problems no matter what the situation. If I can't calculate the results, I can't even do my job as a psychologist, right?
If I can't tell fortunes, can I even help patients solve their problems? What's the point of being a psychologist then? ...
What he said is indeed not a fallacy, so even Yu Lanlan's fans cannot refute it.
Seeing that the barrage was speechless due to the online comments, Li Zaiming smiled victoriously.
In the past, these people were stubborn and always held on to some of Yifeng's points. Now it's Yu Lanlan's turn, what should they say?
At this time, Yu Lanlan also started to use the numerical method to interpret the hexagrams in accordance with Wei Chi and others' ideas.
"Can you give me two numbers at random?"
The patient remains very cooperative.
After getting the number, Yu Lanlan began to count with her fingers and interpret the hexagram in her mind.
Soon, she told the hexagram.
"You have a friend who's also passionate about plastic surgery. That friend came from the same orphanage as you, and you both planned to pursue the same career. But one day, she suddenly found a more suitable job, leaving you alone. You felt a little scared, so you signed up for this live competition in the psychological zone..."
"Yes, yes, yes..." The patient finally understood how amazing Yu Lanlan was. She was able to calculate so much based on just two numbers.
"You're still in touch with that friend, right?"
"Right. What? Will contacting that person affect me? But my friend is still trying to persuade me not to have plastic surgery. She said she's been through some things and thinks plastic surgery is addictive and could even lead to disfigurement. She's the one who's been urging me to seek psychological counseling!"
Yu Lanlan immediately analyzed a lot of information from it.
According to the patient's words, this friend is a key figure. However, she doesn't think that the people on Shen Shi's side have gone through all means to set up such a crude trap.
This friend must be just a bait. It can even be said that he is just the most insignificant person in this matter. There must be many things behind it, which even the patient himself may not be aware of.
Yu Lanlan seemed to see a dark fog behind the patient, which involved the fate of many people and could not be solved by ordinary methods.
If the root causes of the problem are not fully identified, even if the patient's current symptoms are resolved, they will definitely relapse in the future.
Moreover, the clue of relapse is in the hands of Shen Shi's people. They can pull the thread whenever they want. By then, something like what happened to Yi Feng when she passed the final test but was overturned will definitely happen to her.
The people in Shenshi are probably looking at her now as if she is a turtle trapped in a jar.
But if they knew her cards, they probably wouldn't think so.
A hint of smile flashed across Yu Lanlan's eyes.
Of course, she wouldn't reveal her cards in front of the live camera.
"How about this? I'll give you acupuncture first. It can calm you down and alleviate your desires. Once you've adjusted your mindset, we can discuss in depth how to successfully resolve the problem."
The patient didn't know that she was actually in the game between Yu Lanlan and Shen Shi. Her current idea was just to solve the psychological barrier of not being able to suppress her desire even though she knew she couldn't indulge in plastic surgery.
When she heard Yu Lanlan say that she wanted to give her acupuncture, she did not have any doubts and agreed without hesitation.
Yu Lanlan asked Chen Li to step aside, and Wan Qing and others pushed the screen up.
In front of the camera, she began to perform acupuncture seriously.
Seeing this scene, Wei Chi and the manager's expressions relaxed.
"Sure enough, nothing special."
Li Zaiming finally realized something from the manager's words.
"Yu Lanlan has no other options now. She's stalling for time, right?"
Wei Chi glanced at him, then glanced at Yi Feng in the live broadcast room, and nodded with a patient smile.
After learning this, Li Zaiming could no longer control his joy.
When he looked at Yu Lanlan again, his eyes instantly became superior.
"Yu Lanlan, you have come to this day!"
Thinking that Yifeng would finally win the game this time, he couldn't control his excitement.
They had been suppressed by Yu Lanlan for too long. In the past month, there had not been a single day that made him and Yifeng feel happy.
As long as they know Yu Lanlan's weakness, they will be able to remove this obstacle sooner or later!
Wei Chi and the manager felt a little disgusted when they saw his smug look on his face.
They did not remind them that even if Yu Lanlan was forced to leave the live broadcast industry, she would be a guest of honor wherever she went because of her identity as a metaphysical teacher, which was something Li Zaiming could never achieve in his entire life.
Although Yu Lanlan now looks to be in a state of decline, in order to make sure that Yu Lanlan really has no chance of recovery, Wei Chi and the manager still insist on staying in front of the screen.
-
Yu Lanlan’s acupuncture had been demonstrated before, but for some viewers, it was no longer very attractive, so they switched to Yifeng’s live broadcast room.
Yifeng looked out of shape today. He had obvious dark circles under his eyes and his reactions seemed a little slow.
However, what surprised the audience was that his patient in the seventh level was exactly the opposite of Yu Lanlan, and was actually a man.
Women undergoing plastic surgery seems to have become a stereotype, making many people forget that in addition to women, there are actually many men who like plastic surgery.
The patient in front of Yifeng is one of them.
When the other party was sent to the door of the live broadcast room by the staff, Yifeng reacted and stood up to greet him.
"Hello."
Before Yifeng had even finished looking at the other person, he subconsciously greeted him first.
Then, the other person's appearance came into his sight.
Opposite him was a boy who was about 1.7 meters tall, thin and weak, but had a "peerless" snake-like face, and his every move was full of effeminateness.
When the other person saw Yifeng, his expression seemed to become more lively, but his face had been injected with too much hyaluronic acid, so his expression could not change much at all. He opened his pouty smile and replied to Yifeng: "Hello, anchor."
Yifeng could see a hint of appreciation in the other person's eyes.
If such appreciation appeared in the eyes of a beautiful woman, she would definitely sigh at her own charm, but when this expression appeared on the face of a plastic surgery man, his originally dizzy mind instantly became clear.
After seeing this patient, all thoughts of heartbreak and white moonlight disappeared from his mind in an instant. If he hadn't remembered that he was still under the camera, he would have wanted to quickly call Li Zaiming and drag the man away.
His expression paused for at least three seconds.
How could the audience not see this rigid change? They inexplicably felt like watching a good show.
[This patient is a bit strange, let’s take a closer look]
[Suddenly, I had a bad feeling for Yifeng...]
Even the audience felt the bad premonition, so how could Yifeng not feel it?
He gritted his teeth and invited the patient to sit across from him.
Fortunately, the patient opposite did not do anything out of the ordinary except for some strange words and actions.
Yifeng gradually felt relieved.
He began to ask the other party his routine questions.
"What led you to start plastic surgery?"
When the patient opposite heard this question, he subconsciously glanced to the side.
"Because I was so ugly before, I wanted to look better."
Yifeng really wanted to curse. Is this how you make yourself look better? A good-looking man, but now he has a cone-shaped face, apple cheeks, pouty smiling lips, and a chin that's so pointy it feels like if he lowers his head, it will poke through his chest.
However, Yifeng knew that he could never say these words out loud, so he just covered it up with an awkward smile.
"What kind of environment do you usually come into contact with?"
What kind of environment could create such a weirdo?
When this was mentioned, the patient opposite him looked sad.
"It's like this. When I was born, I was abandoned in an orphanage. The orphanage adopted me, so I never felt the love of my parents. This also led to my lack of love in my personality. I especially long for the care of others..."
Having said that, he looked at Yifeng with a meaningful look, which almost gave Yifeng goosebumps all over his body.
The patient continued, "Growing up in an orphanage, everyone around me seemed to dislike me. I thought it might be because I wasn't good-looking enough, so when I grew up, I fell in love with plastic surgery. Until I met a girl who was disfigured by plastic surgery, she persuaded me not to be obsessed with plastic surgery, but I always couldn't control myself..."
Although his behavior and appearance are very unusual, many viewers began to understand him after this explanation came out.
Unfortunately, Yifeng couldn't empathize with the situation at all.
In particular, after the other party finished speaking, he suddenly felt something extra next to his trouser leg.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that the other person's feet had stretched out from under the coffee table to his side at some point, and were rubbing against his legs.
Yifeng almost gasped.
Thinking that he was still under the camera, he was afraid of becoming a laughing stock and didn't even dare to show that he was being harassed by the other party. He could only move aside calmly.
Then, he found that the other person's feet were following him.
Yifeng almost wanted to call the police.
But he can't!
This level is the key to defeating Yu Lanlan, he will not allow any mistakes!!
He suddenly had an idea and moved his legs to the side and crossed them, so as to avoid being entangled by the other party.
Seeing how cold and ruthless he was, the patient opposite him began to look increasingly resentful.
Yifeng was almost dumbfounded.
He could only pretend to be calm and continue asking the other party questions.
Because of the angle, the audience and Li Zaiming and others did not notice that there was anything wrong with the two people. They just felt that the patient was quite cooperative this time.
Li Zaiming even felt that according to this trend, Yifeng would definitely be able to cure the other party this time!
Yifeng's "outstanding performance" attracted the attention of Li Zaiming, Wei Chi and others.
What they didn't know was that on the other side of the ring, when Yu Lanlan was removing the needle from the patient, she quickly made a gesture with her hand facing away from the camera, and a golden light invisible to the naked eye covered Yu Lanlan's forehead.
Her mind moved, her third eye opened, and she directly saw through some of the cause and effect relationships attached to the patient.
Through her third eye, she saw something that really happened.
Twenty years ago, a patient who was still an infant was abandoned outside an orphanage. The person who abandoned her left quickly, but unlike what the patient said, the door of the orphanage was opened almost as the person who abandoned her left. A kind-looking woman came out and immediately picked up the child. She looked around and made sure that no one saw her before she took the child in.
After entering the room, she quickly rummaged through the patient's swaddling clothes, and then found a jade pendant of very good quality, and then put it in her arms.
She claimed to other staff members of the welfare home that she had just accidentally discovered the patient, an abandoned child, outside the door. The child might have been abandoned by his family and planned to stay in the welfare home first.
After naturally keeping the child, the people from the welfare home soon picked up another child, also a girl.
The director placed the girl together with the patient, and when no one was looking, he hung the jade pendant he had found from the patient's swaddling clothes around the other girl's neck...
The golden light flickered, and the duration of the Heavenly Eye had run out. Yu Lanlan came back to her senses in an instant.
With this third-eye review, she was certain that what happened to the patient was definitely not simple. It was a trick of replacing the prince with the cat!
At this time, the patient didn't know what was happening. After Yu Lanlan pulled out all the acupuncture needles, she really felt relaxed all over. A lazy energy appeared in her heart, making her feel less restrained.
If she continued to feel this way, she felt that she would not be so desperate as to have plastic surgery.
However, Yu Lanlan knew that her acupuncture could not cure the root cause. If she wanted to completely protect the patient from future problems, she had to get to the bottom of the whole matter.
So, after acupuncture, she invited the patient to sit down again.
"How do you feel now?"
"Thank you, host. I feel very good now and relaxed all over." The patient's trust in her increased from 8 points to 10 points.
"How about we do another divination now?"
The patient was stunned, then agreed.
"Please give me two more numbers."
The patient thought about it and gave her two numbers.
Yu Lanlan acted as if she was doing the divination seriously, making the uninformed patients and the audience think that she was just doing it again.
Wei Chi also noticed Yu Lanlan's action.
Li Zaiming, who knew nothing, didn't think anything of it, but Wei Chi and the manager were shocked instantly.
The two looked at each other quickly, with the same surprise in their eyes.
What's going on? Why is Yu Lanlan performing divination again?!
You should know that in the world of metaphysics, there is a saying that goes "one divination per event, one hexagram per divination." This means that the same event can only be divined once within a certain period of time. If you divine repeatedly, the divination will fail.
By doing this, Yu Lanlan won't be able to predict anything more, and it may even have the opposite effect.
Is it because the other party comes from a wild background and doesn't understand these rules at all?
The two of them had such doubts in their minds and felt that there was something unusual about the matter.
They decided to wait and see.
And the much-anticipated Yu Lanlan finally finished her second divination.
She began to clarify.
"Your friend who had plastic surgery with you must have met a benefactor. With their help, she was able to get this suitable job. And that benefactor must have a complicated relationship with you."
"Ah? What do you mean?" The patient was a little confused.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I want to ask you another question."
"You say."
"In the orphanage where you grew up, was there a girl who entered the orphanage on the same day as you?"
The patient thought about it carefully and his eyes lit up.
“It really exists!”
"Was he later found by his family and brought home?"
"That's right." The patient nodded.
Yu Lanlan looked thoughtful.
But the patient felt very strange, “Does this have anything to do with my psychological disorder?”
Yu Lanlan did not answer, but asked the patient to come back tomorrow.
At this moment, Wei Chi and the manager both widened their eyes.
"How is it possible?! How could she possibly calculate so much?!"
