Zhang Shaozhong only stopped, still feeling apprehensive, after being quite a distance from the mobile phone store.
"My two ancestors! Please! Say less! What do you mean by 'a demon general giving a reward'? People will think I'm crazy!"
Ling Qingxue's face was cold:
"Am I wrong? This person is wicked, with lewd eyes, and is definitely not a good person."
Night Enchantress also hummed:
"Exactly! They only gave us that little bit of money, who do they think they are!"
Looking at these two big shots who had no concept of money and danger in modern society, Zhang Shaozhong felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
He squatted on the curb, looking at the few dozen yuan he had left in his hand, so worried that he kept pulling his hair out.
Money, oh money!
Identity, oh identity!
Are we really going to take these two to the construction site to carry bricks?
Or should I go wash dishes at a restaurant?
He imagined Ling Qingxue washing dishes with a cold face and wearing gloves, and Ye Meier twisting her waist to serve guests, possibly even putting the plates on their heads... He couldn't help but shudder.
no!
Absolutely not!
But what else can we do?
Just when he was at his wit's end, his gaze inadvertently swept over the various small advertisements pasted on the street corner.
Suddenly, a relatively new-looking "seeking a child for a large sum of money" advertisement caught his attention...
He quickly shook his head, trying to shake off the dangerous thought.
Keep reading, and you'll find things like "unclogging drains," "lock picking," and "traditional Chinese medicine doctors specializing in treating difficult and complicated diseases"...
etc!
"Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor"?
Zhang Shaozhong suddenly remembered the scene last night when Ling Qingxue accurately described his younger sister's symptoms at the front desk!
A bold idea, like a flash of lightning in the darkness, suddenly illuminated his despairing heart!
yes!
These two... although they're not from this world, they're really skilled!
Ling Qingxue clearly understands medicine!
Night Enchantress... uh... although she doesn't seem like she can cure diseases, she should be able to fool people, right?
A plan that was utterly absurd, riddled with flaws, yet somehow seemed sliver of possibility, gradually took shape in his mind…
He suddenly stood up, his eyes fixed intently on the two bewildered bigwigs.
"You two! I might... have thought of a way to make money... uh, to earn spirit stones!"
Zhang Shaozhong's intense gaze made the two big shots feel uneasy.
Night Enchantress took a half-step back warily, glancing sideways with her alluring eyes:
"Hey kid, what are you up to? You've got such a sneaky look in your eyes, you're definitely up to no good!"
Ling Qingxue frowned and said coldly:
"If it's something that involves showing one's face in public and is beneath one's dignity, don't mention it again."
"No, no! This is a technical job! We'll have to utilize your expertise!"
Zhang Shaozhong quickly waved his hand, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously.
"Think about it, what are you two best at?"
Ling Qingxue and Ye Meier exchanged a glance, both somewhat puzzled.
"Naturally, it is about cultivating oneself to attain enlightenment, and slaying demons and monsters."
Ling Qingxue raised her chin and said matter-of-factly.
"Murder, arson, and turf grabbing?"
Night Enchantress put it more directly.
Zhang Shaozhong almost spat out a mouthful of blood:
"...You two! Let's be realistic! Say something that can be used right now! For example... Fairy Qingxue, do you know medicine? The kind that heals the sick and saves lives?"
Ling Qingxue was slightly taken aback, then calmly said:
"A basic understanding of traditional Chinese medicine, alchemy, medicine making, regulating qi and blood, and exorcising evil spirits are the foundation of a cultivator."
She spoke casually, but her confidence was undeniable.
"That's right!"
Zhang Shaozhong slapped his thigh and looked at Ye Meier again.
"Well... Sister Mei'er... what about you? Besides fighting, do you know anything else... um... like face reading? Fortune telling? Predicting good or bad fortune?"
He remembered that the Demonic Cult seemed to be quite good at these mystical things.
Ye Meier chuckled and tossed her hair:
"What I'm skilled in is the art of captivating souls and controlling inner demons! Fortune telling? That's the tricks of a blind man on the street! But..."
She changed the subject, with a hint of smugness.
"When it comes to understanding people's weaknesses and predicting good and bad fortune, I am indeed better than those fake Taoist priests!"
"That's enough! That's enough!"
Zhang Shaozhong became excited.
"Let's do this!"
What are you going to do?
The two bigwigs asked in unison, their faces full of suspicion.
"Set up a stall! Tell fortunes! See a doctor!"
Zhang Shaozhong was going all out; his eyes were shining.
"Right here in town! Let's set up a small stall! Fairy Qingxue, you'll treat your illnesses, and Sister Mei'er, you'll tell your fortunes! We'll combine Chinese and Western... ugh, let's combine immortals and demons! We're sure to make money!"
"What?!"
"You want me to go out and have my fortune told on the street?!"
Ling Qingxue and Ye Meier exclaimed simultaneously, their faces filled with shock and rejection!
"Outrageous! I am a respectable man... how could I stoop to the level of a quack doctor and swindle people?!"
Ling Qingxue turned pale with anger, feeling deeply insulted.
"Exactly! I'm being asked to set up a stall?! And with this hypocrite?! Kid, are you tired of living?!"
Ye Meier was so angry she wanted to hit someone.
Zhang Shaozhong had anticipated their reaction, and quickly tried to reason with them and appeal to their emotions:
"My dear ancestors! Think about reality! We're broke! Where are we going to stay tonight?"
What are you going to eat? Do you still want to sleep on the streets and eat compressed biscuits?
He pointed to the bustling crowd on the street:
"Look! There are so many people here! Surely someone has a headache or fever!"
There are definitely some superstitious people who want their fortunes told!
Fairy Qingxue, your medical skills are superb. Just showing off a few of your techniques would benefit the people!
Sister Mei'er, you have a sharp eye and a keen eye for people. A few words of advice from you are like saving all living beings... uh, or helping people avoid disaster.
