Chapter 172 The King of Bullshit
Bai Yi: [Then let’s start the video.]
Li Zhi's eyelashes were dark and drooping, and her porcelain-white face was delicate and beautiful. "Okay, but if you ask me to see it, the price will be different."
Bai Yimei's heart skipped a beat. She was indeed a money-grubber. Even a million dollars wouldn't be enough to feed her. [How much?]
Li Zhi: [One hundred thousand per divination, is the price acceptable?]
Bai Yi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He could already take out one million, so one hundred thousand was nothing. He even asked him if he could accept it.
[Okay, I'll turn you now.]
Li Zhi glanced at the bank card payment notification that popped up in the window and directly called him via video using the musical note.
The next second, Bai Yi's face appeared on the phone screen.
He saw Li Zhi's face also appearing on the screen, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. He subconsciously blurted out: "Are you using the beauty filter?"
Li Zhi raised an eyebrow. "What does it have to do with you whether I use beauty filters or not? Isn't that the point of our video call?"
Bai Yi coughed lightly and said, "It's okay. Can you see if someone is borrowing my luck?"
Li Zhi stared at him for a few seconds, frowned, and said seriously, "Have you ever borrowed someone else's luck?"
Bai Yi was slightly stunned for a moment, then reacted with a look of surprise. It was obvious that he didn't expect that she could even see this.
His eyes flickered and he denied it: "You must be mistaken. How could I possibly borrow someone else's transportation?"
"Are you questioning my ability?" Li Zhi paused and continued, "You borrowed Qin Huan's, right?"
Bai Yi: “…”
"Don't be so quick to deny it. You are suffering the backlash now," said Li Zhi.
Bai Yi's breathing stagnated, "What backlash?"
"That's because you're the one who's starting to get unlucky, like someone else's luck is being borrowed." Li Zhi paused, then continued, "Otherwise, how could the second male lead role that belonged to you be replaced? It's already started."
Bai Yi couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, with disbelief in his brows.
He had only just learned about this news a short time ago, and the crew hadn't posted the news online yet, yet she managed to know about it.
"Borrowing luck is a sorcery. If you break it, you'll suffer the consequences. Not only will it bring you bad luck, but it could also threaten your life," Li Zhi added. "I see a deathly look on your face right now. I'm afraid you'll die in an accident soon."
Bai Yi was frightened and really panicked. "This, the person who helped me borrow the luck to perform the ritual never said it would be like this!"
"They say it's a sorcery, but will they tell you the consequences of breaking it?" Li Zhi said quietly.
"Can you solve this backlash problem?" Bai Yi asked hurriedly.
Li Zhi nodded, "It can be solved."
With the previous experience, Bai Yi had guessed that she would definitely charge him more, so he asked unconsciously, "How much?"
Li Zhi raised an eyebrow imperceptibly. "Give it to me as you see fit. After all, this is a matter of life and death."
Bai Yi thought for two seconds, "Is one million enough?"
"Okay," Li Zhi replied, "but I have to make one thing clear to you. I can only save your life. As for the bad luck caused by the backlash, I can't solve it."
Bai Yi couldn't care about anything else right now. His life was more important. "It's okay. As long as you can save me, that's all."
Li Zhi raised her fair chin slightly, "Okay, then transfer the money."
"Okay." Bai Yi responded, immediately switched to the background, and transferred another million to her.
After receiving the money, Li Zhi said, "Give me your address and I'll send you a talisman. Burn it into ashes, soak it in water, and drink it. This will resolve the backlash."
Bai Yi's eyelids twitched. Why did he feel like he was being ripped off? "Is it that simple?"
"You think it's simple, but my talisman paper is not ordinary." Li Zhi's eyelashes moved, and he said nonchalantly: "You set the price yourself. If you think it's not worth it, then I will return the money to you, and you should find another expert."
Bai Yi's expression tightened, "No, I understand. I'll send you the address."
He paused, pursed his lips, and continued somewhat unwillingly, "Is my bad luck really unsolvable? Since drinking this talisman paper in water can resolve the backlash I've received, why can't this bad luck be eliminated at the same time?"
"No, haven't I already told you? This can only save your life, it won't solve any other problems." Li Zhi sighed softly, "Maybe it's because I'm not very skilled. This is all I can do. Later you can go find other masters in this field. Maybe they will have a solution."
"Do you have any recommendations for any experts in this field?" Bai Yi asked.
"No." Li Zhi said.
“…”
Bai Yi thought about it and decided not to dwell on it for the time being. Saving his life was more important. "Okay, I understand. Can you mail the talisman paper today? Or should I send someone to get it from you?"
"No need, I have someone to deliver it. Just send me the address." Li Zhi replied.
"Okay." Bai Yi responded.
Li Zhi had laid so much groundwork, and now she finally got to the point. "By the way, where did you find someone to help you borrow the luck? This person is totally trying to harm you."
"I met him once when I was coming out of dinner. He suddenly came up to me and stopped me, saying that I would have a bloody disaster soon and asked me if I wanted to resolve it," said Bai Yi.
"Of course I didn't believe him at first. I thought he was a liar trying to cheat me out of my money, so I ignored him and got in the car."
"The car didn't go far before it collided with a truck that suddenly rushed out at the intersection. Fortunately, it was nothing serious. I only suffered some minor injuries and my arm was cut by broken glass and bleeding."
"When I got out of the car, I immediately thought of the bloody disaster that person had told me about. I never thought it would actually come true."
"I was just about to go back to where we were having dinner to find him when I heard his voice behind me, asking me if I believed what he said now."
"After that, I added his contact information and he said that if I needed his help in the future, I could contact him."
"Later, things were not going well for me at work, so I went to him and asked if he could help me improve my career luck."
"He told me I could solve this problem by borrowing luck. He asked me to give him the birth date and time of the person I disliked, as well as the nails and hair that matched their body. He would help me borrow all the luck from that person and transfer it to myself. That way, no matter what I do in the future, everything will go smoothly."
Bai Yi pulled the corner of his mouth and began to confide in himself, "I've always been jealous of Qin Huan. I don't understand why. Whether it's singing, acting, or looks, I'm obviously no worse than him."
