Chapter 84 I suspect there's a monster hiding in my house



Divine Calculation Hall.

Lin Xi rested for a while, then said, "The last divination."

“Master, it’s me.” Li Changyu rubbed his hands together, standing awkwardly.

Lin Xi raised her hand, "Sit down, there's no need to be so nervous."

"Okay, sure." Li Changyu sat up straight with his legs together, like a good boy.

A unique aroma of wine permeated the air, as rich and intense as a fine aged liquor.

Qian Fugui took a light sniff and couldn't help but utter that sentence.

"Bro, you smell so good."

Li Changyu: "..."

What does this fat guy mean?

He shrank back a little in fear, "My family has been brewing wine for generations, so I have a bit of the smell of wine on me."

"So that's how it is." Qian Fugui moved closer to him and sniffed hard. "It smells so good. I've never smelled such a fragrant wine before."

Li Changyu was even more frightened. He looked at the fat man as if he were a pervert, and his voice was trembling.

"Stay away from me, I'm already married."

Qian Fugui was completely confused. "Didn't I ask you if you were married?"

Ji Heng grabbed his ear and dragged the idiot aside. "People think you're a pervert. Why are you getting so close? Your mouth is practically touching their clothes."

Qian Fugui blurted out, "It smells so good."

Li Changyu's face turned bright red, and he really wanted to escape from this place immediately.

Ji Heng was speechless. "Fatty, you scared someone."

Qian Fugui then realized what nonsense he had said, and he was embarrassed to laugh.

"Sorry, bro, I'm straight. I apologize for what I just said."

Li Changyu gave a few perfunctory replies, "Mhm, mhm."

After calming himself down, he quickly apologized, "Master, I'm sorry, I'm a rather introverted person, and I blush easily when I'm nervous."

Lin Xi waved her hand, "It's nothing, what do you want to calculate?"

Li Changyu slowly began, "I suspect... there's a monster hiding in my house."

"monster?"

Lin Xi glanced at him and said, "You smell too strongly of alcohol and have no demonic aura. Even if you do, it's very faint. A demon like you has no power to harm people."

Li Changyu frowned. "I saw that monster. It was very long, its body was soft, and it was a bit cold."

Qian Fugui and Ji Heng exchanged a glance. "A snake spirit?"

"It doesn't quite seem like it." Li Changyu bit his finger. "It's very strange, I don't know how to describe it?"

Lin Xi asked, "It didn't do anything to you, did it?"

"No, I was very scared at the time and accidentally touched the monster's tail. It really didn't hurt me."

Li Changyu tried desperately to recall that day.

The Li family has been brewing wine for generations. His grandfather and father were both famous winemaking masters in the area, so he naturally inherited this business.

My father suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and passed away too early and too suddenly, before he had fully mastered the art of brewing wine.

The wine he brewed couldn't compare to his father's, and customers said it had lost its original flavor, causing Li's business to decline day by day.

Li Changyu stays up all night in the winery, studying the art of brewing, because his father's skills must not be lost.

One morning at five o'clock, he was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes.

A long object rushed toward the wine jar, and Li Changyu instinctively spread his arms to protect it.

This was the last jar of wine his father left behind before he passed away, and he couldn't bear to sell it.

A long white shadow touched him and then disappeared.

Li Changyu blinked hard, wondering if he was hallucinating from staying up all night.

Later, he saw the long white shadow several more times, but each time it disappeared quickly.

He suspected that an unidentified creature was hiding in the bar.

Li Changyu didn't understand, "Why is the monster staying in my house?"

Lin Xi said calmly, "It sounds like a good demon. It's either here to repay a debt of gratitude or to find something. Has anything changed in your house recently?"

Li Changyu's eyes lit up. "After the monster came, the wine I brewed became more and more fragrant, just like the wine my father brewed."

Ji Heng guessed, "The monster likes to drink your wine, but the wine you brew is too awful. The monster couldn't stand it anymore and came to teach you how to brew wine himself."

Li Changyu nervously gripped the hem of his clothes, "My wine may not be as good as my father's, but it's not as bad."

Ji Heng pondered, "What exactly is a monster that likes to drink transformed from?"

No one could have guessed; they had never heard of a monster with such unique tastes.

Li Changyu sighed, "Master, my daughter also saw this monster, and she talks nonsense every day."

"I would like to ask you to go and see my daughter, and to take this monster away and let it go where it belongs, so that it will not bother our family."

Lin Xi nodded. "Let's go."

The onlookers dispersed on their own and cleaned up the area.

"Master, we'll come again tomorrow."

Master Lin waved, "Goodbye, everyone."

Qian Fugui closed the door and stood silently to the side.

Li Changyu laughed awkwardly, "Master, I dare not drive because of the smell of alcohol on me."

Qian Fugui raised his hand, "I'll take you there. I'm a ten-year veteran driver."

Lin Xi agreed, "Thank you for your help."

"It's no trouble at all."

Qian Fugui's face was full of excitement. He could finally go to the scene and not have to watch the drama end halfway through.

He immediately ran to the car, saying, "Master Lin, please get in the car."

Lin Xi and Li Changyu got into the car, and Ji Heng shamelessly squeezed into the passenger seat.

Qian Fugui glanced at him and asked, "What are you doing up here?"

"Hehe." Ji Heng chuckled, "Brother Fugui, I want to go too."

Qian Fugui rolled his eyes. "Call me Brother Fugui if you need something, otherwise call me Fatty."

Ji Heng pretended not to hear, "Hurry up and drive, don't keep the big boss waiting too long."

Qian Fugui started the car and drove towards Li Changyu's winery.
