Chapter 29: Fate is hard to defy



Chu Changzui was sitting in a guest room.

He didn't know why he walked in inexplicably, and why he sat here inexplicably.

It can only be said that fortunately few people saw him when he came here today, and the elders of Huashan Sect were not here today, otherwise it would be easy for something to happen.

Feng Qing made a cup of tea and brought it over. She didn't know why she followed him inexplicably, and then sat opposite Chu Changzui inexplicably.

She just wanted to take a picture of the other person's hand, but she forgot about it when she was nervous downstairs, so she had no choice but to follow him here again. Now sitting opposite to him, she got nervous and forgot what to say again.

Chu Changzui secretly glanced at the shopkeeper's face, and he couldn't help but secretly admire him in his heart.

Fair skin, red lips and white teeth.

A truly beautiful face.

If it weren't for the eyes hidden under her long hair that gave her an inexplicable sharpness, the shopkeeper could really be said to be a beauty of national beauty.

But it was precisely those hidden eyes that made the shopkeeper distinguishable from other beauties at a glance.

There was only one problem.

...If you didn't know the true identity of this person, I'm afraid no one would dare to believe that he was actually a man.

Chu Changzui drank a sip of tea silently.

This is probably the peak of a man who looks like a woman.

Speaking of which...this is a bit similar to the group of people in Jieyi Pavilion. I don't know who is better, the shopkeeper or the group of people in Jieyi Pavilion.

...

Feng Qing really didn't know how to respond to the person opposite so as to find a chance to pat his hand. He was racking his brains to think of an opening remark.

However, before he could open his mouth, he suddenly heard the person opposite say: "I...there is one thing I can't figure out now."

"...Huh?" Feng Qing was suddenly at a loss.

Why did this guy start talking to himself so skillfully?

Is this a very normal thing? Has she been suffering from social phobia for too long and no longer understands the world of normal people?

Although Feng Qing didn't understand, she didn't dare to ask more.

Chu Changzui didn't think so much. He simply thought that since the shopkeeper called him in, the shopkeeper must know what happened to him.

Since the shopkeeper could see his destiny at a glance, it would be ridiculous to hide it.

"I know how much I offended you before." Chu Changzui did not forget that he had followed the elders of Huashan Sect to test you. "This time I came here to apologize. I hope you can forgive me."

Feng Qing suddenly realized it after hearing this.

This handsome guy actually came here to apologize for the previous incident. It was really unexpected. Who is that greasy-looking middle-aged man? Is it worth asking this handsome guy to apologize for him?

Uh, by the way, that middle-aged man couldn't be his relative or elder, right?

Feng Qing suddenly remembered this.

In an instant, she and this handsome guy felt a sense of sympathy.

Nowadays, every family has a few excellent elders. People like Xie Guangkun are already considered good people. If there is a more outrageous one, you can't even cry.

That eldest master looks like the kind of person who is very capable of making trouble. Now he has to let the younger generation clean up his mess. I don't know how many times this handsome guy has apologized.

"I have prayed to the gods for so many days, but there is no result. I know that fate will not go against my will." Chu Changzui took another sip of tea and finally said this sentence with a slightly heavy voice.

When he said this, he felt that a shackle on his heart was unlocked, but at the same time, his heart sank to the bottom again.

——Fate will not go against my will.

Countless times, Chu Changzui had seen people he knew die under the fate, no matter how high their status, how much wealth they had, how powerful their skills were, or how beautiful their faces were, they could not escape. No

one understood the weight of these four words better than him.

The stars in the sky rise and fall, and occasionally a meteor streaks across the sky. They look so beautiful, but in Chu Changzui's eyes they are so cruel. Often

the falling of a star represents the death of a person. Chu Changzui once thought about defying the fate of heaven, but he knew more and more clearly that this was a very difficult thing to do.

King Yan asked you to die at three o'clock in the morning, how dare he keep you alive until five o'clock.

Chu Changzui suddenly wanted to drink.

Then he really did it, using tea instead of wine, and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

Many people thought that Chu Changzui was always drunk, but in fact only he himself knew that he seldom got drunk, and being drunk was just a way to show himself to the world.

"Always drunk" actually means being sober.

But... if God really wants to take him away, there is nothing that can be done about it.

Chu Changzui suddenly laughed.

After all, he has been calculating people's fate for a lifetime, and today someone told him his destiny in advance, and this is the last mercy God gives him.

Chu Changzui is actually a very carefree person. Even if he feels that his life may be in danger now, he only thinks it through in a short moment.

As soon as he figured it out, Chu Changzui's clear temperament suddenly became more obvious, and he even looked a little ecstatic. Feng Qing, who was facing him, was more and more confused by his handsome mind.

"Maybe I can't escape this time, but... never mind, thank you."

The sound of his laughter was so pleasant that Feng Qing felt as if his whole body was electrified.

Hiss... I can't stand it, I can't stand it. Feng Qing secretly touched the goose bumps on her arms.

But even so, she still didn't forget to ask a question that confused her.

"What does it mean that destiny cannot be defied...? What does it mean that you can't escape...?"

And why should he thank her?

Feng Qing always felt that she didn't understand what this person said just now at all. She felt that he was talking nonsense and full of all kinds of feudal superstition.

What about asking gods for divination? This sounds too inappropriate to come out of a handsome guy's mouth. He doesn't look like a feudal and superstitious person. Why is he suddenly talking about this?

Chu Changzui smiled. The shopkeeper asked knowingly, but he couldn't pretend to be confused.

He remembered the elders of Huashan Sect who kept pestering him before he came, so he said, "Well, actually I didn't want to, but the senior kept begging me, and because of the relationship between the elders, I couldn't refuse."

Oh, the elders asked him to calculate? Feng Qing raised an eyebrow.

She thought about it herself, and it was true.

Generally, older people believe this the most, and the more unreasonable the elderly are, the more they believe it.

It seems that this handsome guy didn't come here for no reason, but... is he worried about something?

——In ancient times, feudal superstition has always been a topic that cannot be avoided.

Before, Feng Qing thought that this place was beautiful with green mountains and clear waters, and it seemed that the atmosphere was quite good. Who would have thought that he would meet one in the blink of an eye.

There is no escape from the fate... Such words sound very unpleasant. When he was a child, the fortune teller who often set up a stall in front of Feng Qing's door often used such words to deceive the guests, and he especially liked to deceive old men and old women. It was more like intimidation than deception.

Often people would pay money to the fortune teller in order to get him to say a few auspicious words, and then the fortune teller would use the money he earned to buy rice and noodles, and buy candy for his grandson. In the end, it was just a business.

According to Guo Degang, fortune tellers and crosstalk performers are in the same profession, both of which require one to practice their tongues.

Was the person opposite forced by his elders to have his fortune told, and then something bad was told? Because of the prevalence of feudal superstition in ancient times, he might have believed it, and that’s why he looked so unhappy?

Feng Qing suddenly felt that she had connected all the clues.

——Why was this guy wandering around the door of the inn in broad daylight, and why did he suddenly start talking to her for no apparent reason?

Sometimes when people think too much, they will especially want to find someone to have a good chat.

Perhaps because Feng Qing has always been socially anxious, although she has never had good relationships with people since she was a child, she always inexplicably attracts some mentally abnormal people to confide in her.

Like depression, anxiety, bipolar rebellion and menopause, Feng Qing suspects that this is the so-called social anxiety tree hole theorem.

Maybe it's because her temperament looks like a strict mouth, so many people like to tell her some strange things, even if sometimes she doesn't really want to listen.

Besides, isn't there a saying that people who have suffered from mental illness will be more adept at being psychologists?

The person in front of him must have suffered a great trauma. Feng Qing used her excellent social phobia radar to guarantee that she always felt that the person opposite her felt sad now, which was probably caused by feudal superstition.

And... Feng Qing suddenly remembered the middle-aged man who pushed her mobile phone inexplicably in the guest house that day. The guy looked very abnormal.

It is really a tormenting thing to have an annoying elder at home.

Feng Qing had seen an elder who forcibly separated a couple because of the incompatibility of the man and the woman. Then the young couple cried every day, and their life after marriage was not very happy, but the elder still firmly believed that he was doing the right thing.

No, she had to find a way to help this man.

Although Feng Qing didn't know what happened to this man, she had to start by breaking his feudal ideas. First of all, she had to start by breaking his superstitious things.

Chu Changzui was drinking when he suddenly heard the shopkeeper opposite him ask, "How do you usually calculate... destiny?"

"This." He was stunned for a moment. This... is considered a secret of Guigu Sect, right?

But if the person asking the question is Feng Wuhen, then he doesn't think it's a secret, Chu Changzui thought.

After all, these little tricks of his might be just tricks in his eyes.

"Generally speaking, it's fortune-telling." Chu Changzui picked out a few of his specialties and said, "There's also Feng Shui, fortune-telling... Of course, the most important thing is stargazing."

He was a little nervous when he said this, because it felt like his senior was testing him.

Ever since he was invincible in Guigu Gate at the age of ten, he really never had this feeling again. He didn't know why, but in front of Feng Wuhen, he always had a vague feeling, as if he had returned to the time when he was still studying in the valley, innocent and naive.

Stargazing?

What stars to watch?

Feng Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip, and the expression hidden under the teacup was extremely serious.

The twelve constellations? Sun, moon, and rising constellation?

"Stars..." Chu Changzui suddenly heard the shopkeeper opposite him say, "I started liking these things when I was very young, but these things are meaningless when you think about them carefully."

Feng Qing was most fascinated by this thing when she was in elementary school. At that time, Feng Qing memorized the corresponding personalities of the twelve constellations, and asked everyone she saw to have their

fortunes read. The pencils and pencil cases she bought all had pictures of the twelve constellations on them. Then after she entered junior high school, her enthusiasm for constellations began to recede instantly, and she turned to tarot cards, which are more metaphysical and look better. Crystals...

To be honest, if the crystals were not so beautiful, there would not be so many people buying them. These days, most people only look at the appearance of the things they buy to join in the fun.

Forget it, let's not talk about this.

She didn't know what the ancient Chinese stargazing was all about, but she thought the principle was almost the same, it was just a different way of saying the stars.

Chu Changzui looked up in surprise when he heard

this. If he was second to none in his talent for stargazing, then no one would dare to say he was first, and he had always felt that the stars were something mysterious and elusive.

But the shopkeeper said it so lightly, and there was even a hint of disdain in his tone.

"Something I only liked a long, long time ago", does that mean the shopkeeper has already abandoned stargazing to pursue something more advanced?

The shopkeeper has lived for two hundred years, how much does he know now?

Hiss...

seriously.

If Chu Changzui hadn't known that his death was approaching... at this moment, he really wanted to ask the shopkeeper for advice.
