Chapter 110 Metaphysics Live Broadcast + Raising Children 34
The question is, even if it is difficult for a doctor to heal himself and a Taoist priest is averse to fortune-telling for himself, if he wants to tell fortunes for his adopted grandson, there must be a way to circumvent it, right?
As if he could read Xiao Yan's thoughts, the old man said with a hint of amusement, "Do you think everyone has your talent? It's as if God is chasing me and feeding me. I'm quite capable now, and as the saying goes, everyone has their own specializations, and my cultivation is not limited to this."
The old man didn't say much about this, but judging from the performance of the Ning family from generation to generation, it must be inseparable from the national destiny. So it is reasonable for the Ning family to be valued by the country.
Liu Deyi was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this old man was actually in the same industry as Xiao Yan, and from what the old man said, Xiao Yan was quite capable.
"Why are you still standing there? Although you are more experienced than me, in terms of age, I can shamelessly call myself your elder. There are many people here, come, let's find a place to have a good chat."
Xiao Yan: “…”
Actually, he is not that old.
Xiao Yan thought to himself.
Amidst the various gazes of the crowd, Xiao Yan and the old man came to another teahouse. In addition to the two of them, there were also today's protagonists Ning Qi'an, Liu Deyi and Ms. Sun, which shows the old man's status.
After pouring the tea, the old man dismissed them like swatting away flies: "Alright, you're all the stars of today. We'll have plenty of time to chat later. I've finally met some fellow friends today, so let me, an old man, enjoy some free time."
He looked at Ning Qian'an: "Xiao An, go play with your parents."
Go play...
Everyone who came today is an important person. In the eyes of the old man, are they just for fun?
Liu Deyi closed the door with a somewhat awkward look on his face, and finally said, "There's someone at the door. If you need anything, just call out!"
The old man muttered, "These people just like to torment me. I'm already this old, how can it be easy for me?"
Xiao Yan: “…”
Why is it different from what was rumored?
Xiao Yan asked the question he wanted to ask: "Just now, I heard you say that people in our line of work are rare?"
After knowing about Xiao Yan's existence, someone had already presented him with Xiao Yan's information.
Judging from Xiao Yan's growth trajectory, this person has never been involved in metaphysics, but after his family got into trouble, he seemed to suddenly awaken his talent in this area, which is very strange.
However, the old man has seen too many people, and there are many people who awaken certain talents after major events, such as many in the National Security Bureau. But compared to these people, more are passed down from their ancestors, such as their Ning family.
The country has also conducted research on this, but there is still no pattern to be found. It is okay for those who have family bloodline inheritance, but for those who don’t, it is as if God is compensating these people after they have suffered severe hardships, opening another window for these people.
Although these people did not want this "compensation", because no one wanted to suffer such severe hardships, many of them lost their loved ones.
As for outsiders who were not part of the organization, the old man didn't say much, but instead jokingly said, "Those with ability have long been hired by the country and are busy all day long. How can those who are lazy often come out and walk around? That's why I, the old man, rarely see new faces anymore."
Xiao Yan didn't think much about it. Even though he received knowledge about this world, such secret things were not among them. He only knew that the old man was hiding something, but he had no intention of prying into other people's privacy.
The two talked about metaphysics for a while, and they were very similar in terms of views and opinions. The old man even wanted to add him on WeChat and asked him to visit him when he was free.
After all, he was old, and after about forty minutes, the old man felt a little sleepy.
"People still have to accept their age! I used to be able to stay awake for days and nights without any problem, but today I just got up early and worked for a while, and I'm already feeling sleepy."
"I'm going to lie down for a while, see you later."
Xiao Yan said goodbye to this new old friend and immediately understood Chen Zhao's "loving the new and disliking the old".
It does feel different to have someone you can talk to, not to mention that this old man's thoughts have already surpassed the consciousness of this world, which is also helpful to his understanding of spiritual practice.
What Xiao Yan didn't expect throughout the entire banquet was that in addition to thanking him publicly, Liu Deyi also wanted to give him 5% of the shares of Shan Yao Group as a thank you.
You have to know that the shares of Shan Yao Group are not ordinary. Xiao Yan originally wanted to refuse afterwards. After all, the reward was too much and had long exceeded the scope of gratitude.
If he accepted these shares, it would be equivalent to a large dividend every year. Xiao Yan couldn't even imagine how much money it would be.
Most importantly, if he accepted the shares, his interests would be tied to those of the Liu family, which would not be conducive to his ability to convince others with reason in the future.
To put it bluntly, if there was a bad person in the Liu family, would he just sit back and do nothing?
That's impossible!
Xiao Yan politely declined Liu Deyi's kindness, and he also knew that Liu Deyi's actions were not only out of his sincere gratitude to him, but also because of the old man of the Ning family.
But he did not refuse the 10 million check that Liu Deyi gave him as a concession. After all, the other party was also willing to make friends with him, and it would be unreasonable to refuse again.
Xiao Yan accepted the check and planned to donate some money to a more reliable charity fund when he returned, and then arrange the car and house matters.
No wonder everyone likes money. The feeling of having money is different. He even wanted to lie down, but when he thought about how he could play freely in this world and how many outlaws there were, he immediately gave up the idea of lying down.
When he left the banquet hall and returned to the guest room, a familiar-looking yellow-haired young man stopped him.
The other party was very excited: "Master! Do you still remember me, Master? I am Brother Guo from the live broadcast room!"
Xiao Yan naturally remembered this person and asked, "Remember, what's the matter?"
Brother Guo seemed to be a little anxious. "I told you about my uncle before, but he didn't remember it. He still has dreams every night, and his condition is very bad. He has to be hospitalized and take medication. Can you help me take a look?"
His father had originally agreed, but who knew there had been no movement for so long? Then he saw that the master had not been live streaming in the past few days, and all the people he saw were from the business circle. His family was naturally invited by the Liu family, and he instantly knew that the master must have been invited, so he rushed here without stopping, but he did not dare to wait until after the banquet to disturb the master.
Xiao Yan was also helpless: "If he can't remember it himself, there's nothing I can do, unless he's in front of me in person, I can help cast a spell to make him remember it."
Brother Guo quickly said, "My uncle is at Tongren Hospital in Beijing. Can you please see when he's free and can help me take a look? Master, don't worry. I'll have my uncle pay for the travel expenses and the ritual. I really beg you!"
He made a pleading gesture, almost hugging Xiao Yan's thigh.
Xiao Yan: “…”
Xiao Yan thought for a moment and said, "I have something to do tomorrow, so let's do it the day after tomorrow."
Brother Guo also knew that there would be a banquet for the Ning family tomorrow, and their family was not invited because the Ning family had not reached that level yet.
Although he was very anxious, Brother Guo felt somewhat comforted.
"Thank you, Master. Could you please leave me your contact information? I'll pick you up when the time comes?"
After leaving, Xiao Yan went to see Chen Zhao, then prepared to wash up and go to bed.
Because of the high regard of the old man of the Ning family, he was also added to the contact list at the banquet. Regardless of whether it was for the old man's sake, those people were very nice to him. Of course, he also knew that this was just a polite remark, but there is a saying that goes, good wine needs no bush, and he will become famous sooner or later.
Everything was quiet. It was probably late at night when Xiao Yan was awakened by a phone call.
When I opened my phone, I saw that it was just past twelve o'clock, and the person calling was Liu Guangyu.
Xiao Yan picked up the phone with some suspicion, and heard Liu Guangyu on the other end of the phone sounding a little embarrassed to disturb others and also a little anxious.
The person on the other end stated his purpose, saying that a relative of the Liu family had gotten into trouble and seemed to have run into something evil. He said that Xiao Yan had warned him before, but the relative had not listened and was now hiding in the room, not daring to go out, and was regretting his decision and calling for help.
Xiao Yan didn't need to think much to know that the person Liu Guangyu was talking about should be the person with bad manners during the day.
"I know he deserves it. Who told him not to listen to you, Brother Xiao? But I'm a relative. His mother is my aunt and she has done a favor for my father. So could you please help me?"
Xiao Yan didn't expect that the man would be so unwilling to listen to advice and insist on dying, but since Liu Guangyu said so, of course he would help.
"Brother Guangyu, you're too polite. But let me make it clear first. Your relative can survive, but he has committed too many sins and will be punished in the future."
Liu Guangyu hesitated and asked, "Has he ever killed anyone? Or done anything wrong?"
Although I didn't think that the timid relative would do such a thing, since the master had said it, it must be true.
“No, but I did commit verbal offenses.”
Liu Guangyu breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it's not an unforgivable crime like murder, "If you do something wrong, you must be aware of the consequences. This is the retribution he deserves. But Brother Xiao, my relative doesn't deserve to die, what do you think?"
"I'll change my clothes, wait for me."
After changing clothes, Liu Guangyu was already waiting downstairs.
Liu Deyi, who was standing by, was furious: "Retribution! This is his retribution!"
But no matter how angry he was, Liu Deyi did not say anything to ask Xiao Yan not to go.
Xiao Yan could understand this, and this was also the reason why he was unwilling to be tied to the same boat with others.
Humans are social animals and have weaknesses. If they commit a principled issue, they will be swept away by interests and do things that go against their will and violate the law and moral bottom line.
Fortunately, he had foresight and did not make the wrong choice because of immediate interests.
Beijing is indeed a first-tier city and is also the lifeline of the national government. At this time, there are still many cars on the streets, unlike the slow-paced N City, where usually after 10 o'clock in the evening, there are almost no shops open.
The location is in a luxurious villa complex somewhere in the suburbs.
The Liu family also has several villas here, so it is easy to get in.
When I arrived in front of a villa, I could see that the lights were on and the door was closed, but the strange thing was that there was no movement inside at all.
You know, according to that relative, he invited more than a dozen friends, plus the staff hired in the villa, there were at least twenty or thirty people. With so many people, how could it be so quiet inside?
