Ji Heng asked in disbelief, "Are there really people who are born unlucky?"
Lin Xi blurted out, "You're pretty unlucky too."
In just one month, there was one instance of a soul leaving the body and another of a terrifying experience with a Ouija board.
Ji Heng was speechless. "I'm really unlucky, brother, I understand you."
Deng Ren scratched the back of his head. "Master, I've had bad luck before, but not this bad. It won't affect my normal life."
He pulled up his trouser leg. "Master, look."
My thighs are covered in bruises; when I press down hard, the skin dents in large patches.
Deng Ren lifted his shirt again, revealing that his navel area was covered with purplish-red patches.
"The doctor said I have livor mortis on my stomach and pitting edema all over my body, and suggested I have my kidney function checked."
Deng Ren yawned. "But they didn't find anything wrong. All my indicators are normal."
“My uncle consulted you before, so he recommended me to come here.”
Qian Fugui raised his hand, "Master, I see that this young man's condition is very serious, so I specially arranged for him to be first in line."
"You did the right thing; saving a life can't be delayed."
Lin Xi walked closer to take a closer look.
It's impossible for a normal person to be full of bad luck, but Deng Ren is covered in bad luck, and his luck is about to disappear.
She reached out and grabbed a strand of bad luck, saying, "Your luck has been stolen."
Deng Ren didn't understand, "I'm already unlucky, who would steal my luck for no reason?"
Lin Xi explained, "It wasn't that I deliberately stole your luck; it was just a random selection, and it just happened to be you."
The person who stole the luck was very cautious and only extracted a small amount of luck.
If someone has normal luck, they won't notice anything at all.
Deng Ren was already unlucky, and with his last bit of good fortune stolen away, he became even more unfortunate, even developing lividity.
The person who stole the luck probably never imagined that they would accidentally steal the luck of the unlucky person, and then get caught.
Lin Xi asked, "Stealing luck requires the aid of something. Think about when your bad luck started? Have you recently had anything new or unusual at home?"
"About two weeks ago," Deng Ren said uncertainly. "Nothing was added to the house, and nothing was missing..."
"Oh! I remember now."
Deng Ren clapped his hands excitedly, "One day, I was strolling in the park when I suddenly found ten yuan. That was the luckiest moment of my life."
Lin Xi said calmly, "Where's the money?"
Deng Ren pried open the phone case and took out a brand new ten-yuan note.
He chuckled foolishly, "Master, I always carry it with me to commemorate my good luck."
Lin Xi was speechless. "Don't pick up money from the roadside."
The onlookers discussed the matter animatedly.
"I've heard people say there are three kinds of money on the roadside: one dropped by the dead, one for buying luck, and one for buying life."
“My mother taught me from a young age that if I found money, I should either hand it over to the police or spend it right away.”
"Young man, you actually carried the money you found on your person, you're really lucky to be alive."
Deng Ren was heartbroken. "This is a symbol of my good luck, and I can't bear to part with it."
"Master, is the money okay?"
Lin Xi directly shattered his fantasy, "Someone has cast a spell on the money. The person who finds the money will become increasingly unlucky, and the good fortune will flow to the person who cast the spell."
Deng Ren was heartbroken. "What I thought was good luck turned out to be even worse luck."
Lin Xi held out her hand. "Give me the money."
Deng Ren obediently handed her the ten yuan, looking heartbroken. "Master, please tear it up."
Lin Xi gave him a strange look. "Destroying RMB without permission is illegal."
There was a very thin black thread on the banknote. She held the thread and wrapped it with a yellow talisman.
Deng Ren felt much better instantly, and his whole body felt refreshed.
He lifted his clothes and saw that the lividity was gradually fading, and the bruises on his legs were also disappearing.
Deng Ren exclaimed in surprise, "Master, I'm healed, I'm really healed!"
Lin Xi hummed in agreement. "This formation is very simple. Remember not to pick up things from the ground in the future."
She returned the ten yuan to Deng Ren, saying, "You can go now."
Deng Ren dared not accept the money, saying, "Master, you don't need to repay it."
"no."
Lin Xi forcefully shoved ten yuan into his hand, saying, "My teacher taught me in school that if you find money, you should give it to the police."
Deng Ren nodded obediently, "Thank you for your teachings, Master. I will not pick up things randomly again in the future."
He held the ten-yuan note in both hands and walked step by step toward the door, afraid of bumping or damaging the banknote.
Lin Xi took out the yellow talisman that had been wrapped with black thread.
She wanted to follow the direction of the flowing fortune and destroy the formation that was stealing fortune, so as to prevent more people from being harmed.
This time, the unlucky guy did a great job.
...
A certain place in the capital city.
There was a complex pattern on the ground, and two men in black sat in the middle, their eyes closed as they silently recited incantations.
Suddenly, a man in black coughed up a mouthful of blood, "Pfft—! Cough cough cough..."
The other man in black suddenly opened his eyes. "Shi Long, how are you?"
Shi Long clutched his chest, "My formation... has been destroyed."
"Pfft—!" He spat out another mouthful of blood. "Who? Who on earth is it?"
Shi Hu was equally puzzled. "We just threw in a few coins to test the luck-altering formation. Before our plan even started, the formation was destroyed."
"In today's world, who has the ability to destroy a formation remotely?"
Shi Hu sighed, “In this era of Dharma decline, the Xuanmen sect is in decline, yet China still produces many talented people. Even without the help of the Divine Lord, their strength is still so great, and they have even established a Special Administration Bureau.”
Shi Long scoffed, "We were careless this time."
"I will definitely get my revenge. I'll catch this guy and tear him to pieces, so he'll see the power of a top-notch feng shui master!"
Shi Hu frowned. "Don't forget how Cai Wen and Cai Wu died. The God Lord sent us to find the fragments, not to fight."
Cai Wen is skilled at concealing his presence, while Cai Wu is skilled at manipulating ghosts and monsters.
This duo was a formidable combination in both offense and defense, yet they were ultimately wiped out.
Neither Shi Hu nor Shi Long are good at fighting; they are better at finding things.
If a real fight breaks out, they absolutely cannot win.
Shi Hu remembered something: "The top feng shui school is Jin Suo Yu Guan. We are very likely to encounter a successor of Jin Suo Yu Guan, which would be troublesome."
Shi Long wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "The Golden Lock Jade Gate has long since lost its lineage. Now, the Burial and Divination Sect is the strongest feng shui sect."
Shi Hu was taken aback. "You know him?"
Shi Long laughed heartily, "That old man Qian Jin died at my grandfather's hands. If you want to see the Golden Lock Jade Gate, I can help you find the secret manual left by Qian Jin."
"By stealing the secret manual of the Golden Lock Jade Gate, I will become the most powerful Feng Shui master in the world, hahahaha..."
He laughed maniacally, but Shi Hu was very worried. "The master told us not to cause any trouble and to focus on finding the fragments of the sacred artifact."
Shi Long frowned deeply. "The Qi Luck Array has been broken. I don't have Cai Wen's ability to conceal my aura. If this continues, the Special Administration Bureau will find out sooner or later."
"Qian Jin was once known as Qian the Half-Immortal. Jin Suo Yu Guan is quite something, so he should have a way to find things."
Shi Hu agreed, as he, as a feng shui master, also longed to obtain the Golden Lock Jade Gate manual.
The two decided to first find the secret manual left behind by Qian Jin, and then go find the fragments of the sacred artifact.
