Ever since she met Lin Yu and had her malignant sores cured by him, Feng Hongye made a vow.
I will marry no one but this man in this lifetime!
This trip out of Beijing was to fulfill this vow and get my hands on this man.
Although she is usually carefree, she is filled with hesitation and anxiety when it comes to matters between men and women, so she wants the old blind man to tell her fortune.
When the time comes to act, you'll have a clear idea of what to do.
The old blind man nodded, picked up the tortoise shell on the table, and started shaking it vigorously.
Ding-dong!
A few copper coins were scattered out from inside.
The old blind man picked up the copper coins and felt them one by one. His brows furrowed deeply.
Seeing his expression, Feng Hongye quickly opened the car door and got out. She came to him and asked in a worried voice, "Old man, how is this divination? Is it unlucky?"
"No! No!"
The old blind man waved his hand, then sighed, "A divination is just a number, it doesn't represent destiny. Some things, although the process may be difficult, will eventually have a good result through one's own efforts!"
Feng Hongye frowned. "What exactly do you mean, old man? Just tell me, is it a success or a failure?"
The old blind man remained calm and simply coughed twice.
Feng Hongye rolled her eyes, then pulled out a card from her pocket and said irritably, "This card is the Longxing Card, which covers eighteen catering and entertainment businesses. As long as you are within Yandu, you can eat and drink as you please without spending a penny. Is that alright?"
The old blind man smiled and quickly tucked the card into his sleeve before saying calmly, "What I mean is, young lady, your fate is quite good! However, this guy has a tough fate; any woman who's with him will become unfortunate, either dying or getting hurt. Only those with a strong destiny can bear it. I don't know if you can handle it!"
Feng Hongye froze instantly, then couldn't help but purse her lips. "Trying to scare me? Do you think I'm easily frightened? He's tough, but I'm tougher. Even if he's straight, I can still bend him!"
The old blind man nodded. "I sensed your confidence, young lady. The divination I just performed was the Jian hexagram, which means you are in a dilemma. Whether you advance or retreat depends entirely on your will. If you are determined, there is nothing you cannot accomplish. Just go for it!"
"real??"
Who doesn't like to hear good things when it comes to fortune telling?
It was clear that Feng Hongye had been completely under the old blind man's control, and she was so excited that she almost jumped up.
"Old man, I'll take your good wishes! If I really get what I want this time, I will definitely repay you!"
After Feng Hongye finished speaking, she returned to the car, choked out a sound, and drove away.
The old blind man smirked and shook his head, saying, "Men fear the Lonely Star, women fear the Widow Star. Putting these two together is like finding a hidden dragon and a young phoenix. Tsk tsk, kid, you're in trouble!"
...
Achoo!
On the highway to the Protectorate, Lin Yu couldn't help but sneeze.
"Young Marshal, it's chilly at the Protectorate, why don't you wear more layers?" Feng Jiu, who was driving, comforted him.
Lin Yu glanced at him. "With my cultivation level, do you think I'd feel cold? When I sneeze, it's usually because someone's cursing me behind my back, like... that old guy!"
Feng Jiu paused for a moment, then fell silent.
Because he knew who Lin Yu was talking about.
That must be the old pavilion master who has been missing for many years.
In the entire Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, only Lin Yu dared to call the former pavilion master an "old fellow."
"Hmph! I wonder how that old fellow is doing now?"
When Lin Yu mentioned the old blind man, there was a hint of resentment in his voice.
After all, his vital points had been sealed and he had been abandoned by the Lu family for three whole years, so you can imagine how much resentment he felt.
However, recalling the past bond between master and disciple, Lin Yu couldn't help but feel a pang of longing.
If it weren't for the old blind man back then, I would have been a pile of bones at the bottom of the river long ago.
Although this old man is usually cynical, he treats me quite well, like a mentor and a father.
"Young Marshal, the old Pavilion Master is invincible. He's probably just traveling around. He'll be fine!" Feng Jiu said with certainty.
As the founder of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, the old blind man has displayed too many amazing skills. He is proficient in everything from medicine and divination to fortune telling, and his martial arts skills are unparalleled.
Whether they were global tycoons or heads of state, they were all very polite to the old blind man back then.
Lin Yu nodded.
"That old guy has lived too long and has long since become indifferent to worldly fame and fortune. He only has the path to immortality in his eyes. He has already bombed Dragon Phoenix Island several times in order to study how to refine immortal pills. I guess he is hiding in some blessed land right now, studying the pill formula!"
"But it's good, at least it saves him from causing trouble. Every time I see him, nothing good ever comes of it!"
Lin Yu said irritably.
"Young Marshal, we've arrived at the Protectorate!"
At this moment, Feng Jiu called out.
Lin Yu looked up and saw a huge stone tablet standing beside the national highway in the distance.
The territory of the Protectorate!
Although the Protectorate General is called a "prefecture," it is under the jurisdiction of the Feng Prefecture.
But it is also quite independent.
Take, for example, the relationship between a prefecture-level city and its subordinate county-level cities.
Beyond the boundary marker lies a vast, desolate land.
It was getting late, and looking along the horizon, there was a sense of desolation.
“Young Marshal, we are still several hundred kilometers away from Xidu, the main city of the Protectorate. The county ahead is Shiping County, where Wang Dalei, the garrison commander, is stationed. He has been looking forward to seeing you. I informed him when we set off from Fengtian. I guess he has already led his troops out to greet you!” Feng Jiu said with a smile.
Lin Yu frowned. "I'm just traveling incognito, why make such a fuss?"
Feng Jiu chuckled awkwardly, "I had no choice. Da Lei said he'd blocked the main roads into Xidu and insisted on stopping you so we could have a drink first!"
Lin Yu gave a helpless wry smile, "This Brother Da Lei is truly a man of character! Now that you mention it, I'd like to meet him!"
A moment later, the Jeep pulled into a gas station.
There's only one gas station within a hundred miles, and the line is incredibly long.
Feng Jiu drove her car to the back to wait in line, when a Toyota Land Cruiser suddenly rushed over and squeezed to the front of the line.
Squeak!
The car door opened, and a middle-aged couple in their forties got out of the car.
The woman was fat, with big perm and a face full of fat; she looked quite domineering.
The man, carrying a black leather bag, sported a buzz cut, wore a thick gold chain around his neck, and had a cigarette dangling from his mouth. After getting out of the car, he adjusted his belt, spat out some phlegm, and approached the gas station attendant.
He said in a commanding tone, "Fill it up, 92!"
The female gas station attendant didn't move while holding the fuel nozzle. Instead, she glanced at the cars behind her and said, "Excuse me, sir, you came later. Please go to the back of the line!"
The man paused for a moment, then his eyes widened instantly. "I'm in line with you, you fucking don't know who I am?"
