Southwestern mountains.
Deep in the desolate mountains.
Somewhere on an unnamed mountain range, hidden in the lush forest, there is an ancient Taoist temple.
Perhaps this place is too desolate, the Taoists in the temple have left long ago.
The buildings in the Taoist temple have fallen into disrepair over the years and most of them are in ruins.
However, the ancient trees inside are very lush and look very spectacular.
Such a remote place, usually not even a pilgrim, even the nearby hunters rarely know about it.
A few years ago, a blind old Taoist priest suddenly came to the Taoist temple.
A young Taoist boy came with him.
An old man and a young boy stayed in this deserted Taoist temple. Live a poor life every day.
Until this day.
The arrival of a group of strangers broke the tranquility of the Taoist temple.
The little Taoist boy was sweeping fallen leaves in the yard with a broom when he suddenly looked up at a group of men in suits who came in, his expression full of surprise and shock.
"Who... who are you looking for?"
Behind the group of men in black suits, two bodyguards came over carrying a wheelchair.
A pale young man was sitting in the wheelchair.
If Chen 꼎놇 was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this guy at a glance.
White cloud boat.
Ever since Bai Yunzhou had his legs broken some time ago, he almost disappeared from everyone's sight.
No one expected that the Baiyun Boat would appear in such a dilapidated Taoist temple deep in the mountains.
The bodyguard put the wheelchair aside and pushed Bai Yunzhou in front of the Taoist boy.
Bai Yunzhou took a look at the Taoist boy and estimated that he was only about ten years old.
"Little Taoist priest, I want to draw a fortune stick."
The Taoist boy seemed to have not yet reacted to the scene before him. After hearing these words, he spoke with a trembling voice.
"This... this is just a dilapidated Taoist temple. There are no... no Taoist priests anymore."
"We don't provide fortune-telling services here. Please go back, pilgrim."
Bai Yunzhou smiled and said, "It's okay. 놖 is here to see your master. Can you take 놖 to see him?"
The little Taoist boy was a little nervous.
"Master is in retreat and does not see outsiders."
"Haha, don't worry. You are not a stranger. You and your master are old acquaintances."
After saying this, he gave a wink and the bodyguards around him immediately set off and began to explore deeper into the Taoist temple.
The little Taoist boy was a little anxious.
"Hey, you...you can't go in."
"Master is in retreat, no visitors are welcome!"
Unfortunately, the bodyguards didn't listen to him at all, and his frail body couldn't stop anything.
In this way, the group passed through three courtyards and two squares.
Finally, we came to one of the relatively intact Taoist temple buildings.
A bodyguard stepped forward and pushed open the tightly closed wooden door. Bai Yunzhou was carried to the door, over the threshold, and gently placed into the hall.
At this moment in the hall, an old Taoist priest with white hair was sitting quietly on a cushion with his eyes closed.
During the whole process, the old Taoist priest did not react at all. It seemed as if he had no idea that a group of people had broken in from the beginning to the end.
Bai Yunzhou pushed the wheelchair slowly and finally came in front of the old Taoist priest.
He first glanced at the old Taoist priest in front of him.
To be honest, as a member of the Bai family, Bai Yunzhou had more or less heard about this old Taoist priest.
It's just that over the years, except for Bai Banshan, no one in the Bai family has had the opportunity to see the true face of this old Taoist priest.
Seeing that he was right in front of him, the old man didn't react at all.
Bai Yunzhou laughed and took the initiative to speak.
"I have heard of the Taoist priest's reputation for a long time. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed a Taoist priest with a Taoist aura that is not to be missed."
After a few seconds, the old Taoist priest in front of him finally responded.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The two eyes had completely sunken into two scary-looking holes.
His eyes were blind and he could not see at all.
The foolish Taoist priest spoke slowly, his voice a little hoarse.
"May I ask where this layman comes from?"
Bai Yunzhou smiled faintly: "Come from the north."
"What are you doing here?"
"Of course it's for the purpose of seeking divination."
"I haven't told fortunes for anyone for many years, please forgive me."
"Please go back."
Bai Yunzhou smiled and said, "Master, why are you so anxious to get rid of me?"
"After all, you've come all the way here. You should have time to talk for a few minutes, right?"
The old Taoist remained silent.
Bai Yunzhou continued, "If you don't want to ask for divination, then don't ask for divination. We can talk about something else."
"What do you want to talk about, sir?"
"I want to know how to read a person's fate."
The old Taoist priest was silent for a while, then shook his head.
"Sorry. I can't watch this."
Bai Yunzhou smiled and said, "That's not right. Just a few years ago, you helped me read my fate..."
The old Taoist priest's body trembled slightly.
"May I ask your name, sir?"
Bai Yunzhou smiled.
"My surname is Bai. I came from the capital."
"The Bai family in Beijing?"
The old Taoist's expression changed.
“That’s right!”
Bai Yunzhou smiled and said, "So 놖 just said that 놖 and the Taoist priest have a connection."
The old Taoist priest quickly asked, "Which branch of the Bai family are you from?"
"Aren't you from the eldest house?"
Bai Yunzhou laughed: "To be honest, I should be considered as the third branch of the Bai family."
"White Cloud Boat!"
The old Taoist priest suddenly said his name. There was a hint of surprise on Bai Yunzhou's face.
"The Taoist priest actually knows 놖?"
“No.”
The old Taoist priest answered straightforwardly: "But I know the Bai family better. I only need to think a little bit to guess your identity."
"Haha, as long as the Taoist priest admits that he has a connection with the Bai family, it will save us a lot of time in the subsequent conversation."
The old Taoist priest's expression returned to calm and he spoke slowly.
"Why do you come to see this old man whose body is half buried in the earth?"
"I want to ask the Taoist priest for his name."
"who?"
"Do you still remember this person, Chen?"
The old Taoist's body trembled slightly again.
“No.”
"You see. This is where the Taoist priest is wrong."
"I was praising you just now but now you're not telling the truth."
"Master, since you know that you are from the Bai family, you should understand that lying to you is meaningless."
The old Taoist priest was silent for a while, and finally spoke.
"Please state your purpose directly."
"Okay. I want to know Chen's fate."
The old Taoist shook his head.
"I'm sorry. I don't understand his fate."
"You're lying!"
"I'm not lying. A few years ago, Mr. Bai from the Bai family asked you to tell Chen's fortune."
"At that time, I calculated Chen's fate based on his birth date and time, and found that he had a very special fate. But as for his future, I couldn't see through it at all."
"His fate seemed to be covered with a layer of gray fog. No matter how hard he tried, he could not see the future clearly."
"If you tell fortunes to someone like this, your life will be shortened."
