C1699 A true master
The old man was startled, Zhou Hao was also a little speechless, even if he could count his fate, he could only do so based on his appearance and palm, could he not calculate his name, was he not purposely making things difficult for him? However, the old Daoist was quite fierce previously, so there was nothing that he did not know. If he could not calculate what Yu Kexin was called, then it should be considered as boasting.
Yu Kexin naturally knew that her request was difficult, but she still smiled: "Dao leader, if you can't even calculate this out, how can we continue to calculate? Tell me about it."
The old Daoist thought for a moment, then said, "Fine, although I don't want too many people to know about my abilities, since this young lady wants me to be your name, I can only give it my all. I just hope that you won't tell anyone else about what happened today."
Seeing the old man's serious face, even though Zhou Hao knew that he was putting on a show, he could not help but nod his head, and Yu Kexin said in a serious tone: "Don't worry, I will keep this a secret."
The old Daoist didn't care how much credibility the two of them had promised, suddenly, he started to calculate with both hands, as if he really could calculate. Zhou Hao couldn't find anything special about him, but Yu Kexin seemed to look at the old Daoist with interest.
After a while, the old Daoist's eyes suddenly lit up, and said to Yu Kexin in a low voice: "Little miss, I've already figured it out, I'll tell it to you now, how about it?"
"It can't be. You already know my name, so tell me, what exactly am I called? If you're wrong, I won't give you money!" Yu Kexin was startled, she did not expect the old Daoist to truly know his identity.
Zhou Hao was also surprised. If he did not take the initiative to tell the other person his identity, he would not have known about it, unless he was a famous person, but Yu Kexin was obviously not a famous person. How could this old man know about Yu Kexin's identity?
The old Daoist looked confident and said, "Alright, since it's like this, then I will say it. The young lady's name is Yu Kexin, she is from Tianjin, is there a problem with what I have said?"
Zhou Hao frowned. Could it be that such a strange person existed in this world, without him saying anything, the other party could already recognize his name, and even guess where he was from. Yu Kexin had always used Mandarin to speak.
From the looks of the two, it was clear that the old Daoist priest's divination was correct. However, this sort of calculation was something that most people had never seen or heard before, and they didn't even say anything. They only needed to calculate a bit to know the old Daoist's name.
"Dao leader, you're too amazing. You can actually calculate my name directly. You really are a capable person. Let's continue with the calculation." Yu Kexin didn't think as much as Zhou Hao. She only felt that since this old Daoist was so beneficial to him and could even satisfy such unreliable demands, he should be an expert.
Zhou Hao thought the same, and laughed: "Dao leader is truly powerful, you go and calculate for Yu Kexin first, I am also interested in finding Dao leader to calculate for me later."
"Haha, these two children are really simple." The old Daoist thought he should start his fortune telling, but suddenly laughed out loud and took out a purse from his bosom. The pink color was extremely cute and did not match with his appearance.
When Yu Kexin, who was originally waiting to find the old Daoist to tell her fortune, saw this purse, she immediately exclaimed: "Ah, why is my purse in your hands, Taoist, what's going on?"
"Little girl, do you really believe that there is someone in this world who can calculate? You didn't even say anything and I can already guess what your name is. You really think I'm some sort of god?" The old Daoist smiled and handed the purse over to Yu Kexin, then explained: "The reason I know your name is because I found your wallet, and your identity card is inside."
Zhou Hao laughed involuntarily, the old man had played tricks on him for so long, he was actually trying to return the purse to Yu Kexin, even though he was certain that the old man was not an ordinary person, otherwise, he would definitely take a purse seriously.
Yu Kexin had already accepted the purse and checked it. It wasn't that she wanted to see how much money was inside, but rather, she had her identity card inside, so when she realised that everything was in place, she heaved a sigh of relief.
When she thought about how his wallet was just for the old man to retrieve it, and how the old man had predicted that he would not pay, Yu Kexin said somewhat embarrassedly: "Dao leader, thank you for bringing the purse back to me. Otherwise, it would be a problem even if I were to go home." She wanted to take out two hundred-dollar bills, but she smiled and said, "Dao leader, this is just a small token of my appreciation. Although it's not much, don't reject it."
The old Daoist shook his head and smiled, "Little lady, you don't need to thank me. We cultivators place the most importance on cultivation. If I swallow your purse, it will become a barrier to my mental state in the future. I won't especially help you because of fate."
Yu Kexin did not have any special feelings towards the old Taoist's words, but Zhou Hao knew very clearly that, not to mention cultivators, even his own Martial Arts Master had strict requirements for one's mental state. If one's mental state was unstable, when one's cultivation rose, it was very likely that they would experience Qi deviation.
Even though he could not be sure of what kind of martial arts this old Daoist cultivated, he was sure that this old Daoist was a true expert. How could ordinary people care about matters of the heart?
"Little girl, you keep the money. If I really want to earn money, I will directly find someone to tell my fortune. Didn't you just say that you would find me to do some divination?" Now let me calculate for you. " Seeing that Yu Kexin still wanted to persevere, the old Daoist laughed and changed the topic.
Yu Kexin could tell that this old Taoist truly did not want to take his money, so he could only smile embarrassedly and say, "That's right, Taoist, let's continue with our fortune telling."
Even though the Daoist had previously said that he was not deducing Yu Kexin's name, just based on his character alone, it was normal for the two of them to find the old Daoist and calculate their fates to take care of his business.
He only stared at Yu Kexin's confident observation. This time, he did not look like last time, but rather, he looked very carefully, as if he was looking at a martial artist looking at a comedian. Although it was also a bit ethereal, at least, it was more reliable than the previous time where he could be considered as a name.
After the same moment, she slowly said, "Little girl, your parents are healthy and there is nothing wrong with them. Furthermore, your father's luck is not bad, and your mother is doing business. Your family should be relatively well-off."
"Hmm, Taoist-sir, you're right. My father just got promoted recently, so his official luck is pretty good. My mother is also doing quite a bit of business right now." Yu Kexin's eyes lit up, her identity card could only show stars, she could not see the situation of her family, this was definitely seen by the old Taoist, as for how she saw it, no one else knew.
This time, Zhou Hao was truly shocked. The old Daoist did not have any reason to be clear about these things, it looks like he really did have some ability, and he was not just simply speaking about Jili, others could already clearly explain what Yu Kexin's parents did.
He only frowned slightly as he continued: "You are not the only child in your family, you have a younger brother, but your brother's health is not too good, especially in the past two years, he has been having illness from time to time."
"Ah, Taoist-sir, you can even see that. My little brother has been a bit down on his luck lately, he's been listless all day, and occasionally he would even talk nonsense. My family has already found many doctors, but they were of no use, I've taken care of him for a long time, and now I'm out on a trip to relax." Yu Kexin opened her beautiful eyes wide, and said with a face full of shock.
The old Daoist shook his head and continued, "I won't explain to you the specific reason. I saw your brother's condition from you. Your brother's illness can't be cured by ordinary people. His condition is rather special."
Zhou Hao's heart moved, and asked: "Could it be the so-called hysteria?"
"Hey, little brother, you are really knowledgeable. This is what ordinary people say. Actually, it is more common to say that you have been possessed by evil, that is, that you have been contaminated with something unclean." The old dao was surprised by Zhou Hao's words, but he did not refute him.
Yu Kexin was a girl, after all she was a little timid. Hearing the words of the two, her face became a little pale as she said: "Leader, don't scare me like that, what do you mean by that?"
"You don't have to worry too much, there are always some unexplained phenomena in this world, like gods and ghosts, experts always say something about magnetic fields, this is the thing that they don't have an excuse for. In fact, there have been things like being possessed by evil and ghosts since ancient times, but it's not always fatal." The old Daoist tried to console Yu Kexin not to be afraid, but to explain slowly.
If the old Taoist hadn't given him back his wallet, Yu Kexin would have thought that he was some kind of scammer. Even now, with society saying that he was an atheist, he would actually proclaim that he was a ghost and god. However, thinking about it, fate was also a kind of superstition, and he felt relieved.
After he had seen the Special Ability User, he had once thought about the existence of ghosts and gods in this world. The Western countries already had the Night Race, which meant that they were only in the vampire race.
Furthermore, Isabella Sler had once said that he had met Mao Shan's descendant, Mao Xiaofang, the descendant of the Heavenly Master Dao's descendant Zhang Daoling. They were not normal people, and all of them knew some methods to capture ghosts.
Other than the Special Ability User, if there were any other ghosts and gods in this world, he wouldn't dare believe that she had returned to the world from her previous life. Even though there were myths and legends about the Special Ability User in that world, she had never heard of them being true.
The old Daoist naturally did not know what Zhou Hao was thinking, and continued to speak for Yu Kexin: "Based on your own appearance, I can tell that you're not considered long-lived, and naturally, you're not too short either. There's no problem for you to be seventy or eighty years old, but because of this Evil Qi, you can say that it will affect you."
"You can't see with your eyes. Because you've been with your brother for a long time, you've naturally been contaminated with something that doesn't belong to ordinary people. As for how to confirm it, it's actually very simple." In order to prove that what he said was correct, he directly asked Yu Kexin.
Yu Kexin's heartbeat quickened as she stammered, "Dao Leader, I, I have been like this lately. I always wake up in the middle of the night as if I was having cold air.
"It's not that simple." The old Daoist shook his head and then continued, "I will now perform a trick on all of you. This is something that must not be known by anyone."
As he spoke, he took out a small mirror from his bag that he carried with him, and placed it in front of Yu Kexin. Then, he smiled and said, "Looking at the mirror now, and recall the feeling of coldness all over your body, the more real the better."
Zhou Hao and Yu Kexin didn't know what the purpose of the Taoist was, but Yu Kexin followed the Taoist's instructions and tried her best to recall the feeling of waking up in the middle of the night.
The mirror was facing Yu Kexin, so it was fine at first, but there was only one Yu Kexin in the mirror.
A faint shadow slowly appeared behind Yu Kexin. If it wasn't for the special mirror, no one would have noticed the shadow's existence. Even Zhou Hao felt chills down his spine when he saw this scene.
"Look, this is the Evil Qi that is being emitted from your body, although it is too weak and cannot cause too much harm to you, but with the accumulation of time, your originally seventy to eighty years' lifespan might be shortened by a period of time, as for how many years it is, it will depend on how long the Evil Qi on you can last."
"Daoist leader, since you are able to find out about my situation, can you help me get rid of him? With this thing by my side every day, I have no way to live a normal life." Seeing that the old Daoist understood so much, Yu Kexin immediately asked for help.
Although Zhou Hao's strength exceeded the power of his Extreme Stage, he was helpless in the face of such a strange matter. Even if he wanted to help Yu Kexin, he was powerless to do anything, and right now, the only thing he could do was to place all of them on the old Daoist.
The old Daoist looked around and realized that no one was paying extra attention to his side, so he said directly, "Actually, I was just able to pick up your wallet, we can be considered to be fated to give you a piece of divination. If we find out about this, maybe I can only do it once, just like I said before, you guys must not tell anyone else."
"Don't worry, Taoist. I will definitely keep my mouth shut." Zhou Hao knew that it was time for him to make his position known, so he hurriedly said with certainty.
Yu Kexin was even more anxious as she said, "Dao leader, I will definitely not speak carelessly. I hope that you can quickly help me."
The old Daoist nodded his head as a yellow paper suddenly appeared in his hand. Even Zhou Hao was unable to see how it appeared clearly.
