Chapter 24: His Little Prisoner Has This Side to Him (With Divination)
Lin Yuan immediately frowned.
He looked up at Old Feng on the screen.
He discovered that Old Feng’s expression was also somewhat off.
Old Feng picked up the bamboo tube from the altar table, shook it slightly, and a lot fell out.
He scrutinized the text on the stick, performed a series of calculations on his fingers, and a deep furrow formed between his eyebrows.
“Brother Zhang, the hexagram indicates that your parents have encountered a Disaster Star. It is a Great Omen!”
Hearing this, Zhang Jiaxing’s footsteps paused, and the bright smile on his face vanished instantly.
“What? Master Old Feng? You said… encountered a Disaster Star? A Great Omen?”
Old Feng nodded. “That’s right! There is a karma involving human life attached to them!”
Zhang Jiaxing was terrified. “Then, is it my dad or my mom?”
“Both of them!”
Zhang Jiaxing’s face turned dark.
“Master Old Feng, th-this… what should I do? Is there any way you can help break it?” he asked anxiously.
At this moment, someone in the comment section started making snide remarks.
[These masters are the best at swindling people! If they don’t scare you, how can they make money?]
[Agreed with the above! Just like doctors who say you’re sick when you’re not, or turn a small illness into a major disease, just trying every way to cheat people out of money!]
[Master Zhang from the ‘Daoist Zhang Calculates Everything Under Heaven’ next door is the truly accurate one! Little brother, you might as well go look there!]
Zhang Jiaxing looked at the comments in the livestream room and wavered slightly.
“Master Old Feng, you… are you really accurate?”
Old Feng was unhappy. “Do not use someone you suspect, and if you suspect someone, do not use them! If you don’t believe me, then this hexagram ends here. I won’t charge you, you can go offline!”
Seeing him say this, people in the livestream room started mocking him again.
[Look at that, this fake master is chickening out, he doesn’t dare to get serious!]
[I just came from ‘Daoist Zhang Calculates Everything Under Heaven’ livestream room. Master Zhang’s calculations are truly accurate!]
Looking at the foul atmosphere in the comment section, Lin Yuan understood that among these people, quite a few must be the paid trolls of that “Daoist Zhang.”
Running to someone else’s livestream to poach viewers and step on others to elevate oneself was truly shameless.
He immediately posted two comments.
[Master Old Feng’s calculation is not wrong at all! Both hexagrams are Great Omens!]
[Those calling him a fake master, can you divine? Spouting nonsense without any basis, aren’t you ashamed of yourselves as grown adults?]
These two comments were undoubtedly a rhythm for starting a war.
The netizens who were puffing up “Daoist Zhang” immediately pointed their spears at Lin Yuan.
Landscape Painting: [@Qingzhou Who are you saying is shameless? What kind of manners is that!]
Lin Yuan retorted: [@Landscape Painting I speak directly, don’t mind me. I was talking about you, don’t be polite!]
Loves to Eat Potato: [@Qingzhou Who are you? Can you divine? Are you a master?]
Lin Yuan: [@Loves to Eat Potato I studied under Master Qingxu of the Jiaojing Yi School for fifteen years. What do you think you should call me?]
See You When Waking from Dreams: [Just because you say the calculation is correct means it’s correct? Which clove of garlic do you count as!]
Lin Yuan: [@See You When Waking from Dreams Naturally, I am not garlic. You are the garlic, born to be smashed!]
Lin Yuan was unhurried, retorting one by one.
Shen Yanzhou, watching Lin Yuan’s small mouth act as if it were smeared with arsenic, couldn’t help but hook his lips into a smile.
So this little brat was so sharp-tongued.
Although he often cursed at him too, it was always just those same few phrases back and forth.
It seemed he was still terribly afraid of him.
It even affected his performance!
Shen Yanzhou lowered his eyes slightly.
Was he too strict with him?
But, if he didn’t make him afraid, how could he make him behave, make him obedient?
While Shen Yanzhou’s mind wandered, Lin Yuan’s face had already appeared in the livestream room on the screen.
He applied to connect with the streamer, and Old Feng agreed immediately.
“Little Brother Qingzhou, welcome!” Old Feng said.
Lin Yuan greeted him. “Hello, Anchor!”
“Brother Qingzhou, did you also calculate that both hexagrams are Great Omens?”
Lin Yuan nodded. “Uncle Feng, your calculation wasn’t wrong at all. Furthermore, Little Zhang’s parents are both entangled with human lives.”
Old Feng gave a thumbs up to Lin Yuan. “Little Brother has good skills!”
Zhang Jiaxing’s face was deathly pale at this moment.
“Two Masters, then can you help my dad and mom?”
Old Feng thought for a moment. “To break the karma on them, we must know the sequence of events.”
“My dad and mom have been honest farmers all their lives; it’s impossible for them to murder anyone!” Zhang Jiaxing’s entire face crumpled.
Lin Yuan said, “Entangled with human life doesn’t necessarily mean they are murderous gangsters. Sometimes, unintentionally, one can also forge karma.”
Old Feng added, “For example, abortion.”
Zhang Jiaxing frowned. “I don’t know about that! But I know I have an older sister above me who passed away due to an accident!”
As he spoke, he took out a small cloth bag from his chest pocket.
“Look, when I went into the city to work this time, I specially went to the temple to set up a longevity tablet for my sister!”
Lin Yuan looked thoughtful and said, “Little Zhang, why don’t you tell us your birth date as well? Let’s cast another hexagram!”
Old Feng seemed to understand Lin Yuan’s intention and nodded repeatedly. “Right, right!”
Zhang Jiaxing hurriedly reported his birthday.
Lin Yuan and Old Feng cast their hexagrams simultaneously again.
A moment later, the two looked at each other. “He is also entangled with human life!”
Zhang Jiaxing’s body shivered uncontrollably.
Lin Yuan: “The difference is, he has not encountered the Disaster Star.”
At this time, those water army trolls who were intent on tearing down the stage started clamoring again, accusing Qingzhou of being a shill hired by Old Feng.
Lin Yuan’s elegant brows furrowed, and his voice turned cold.
“You barking netizens, if you’re not convinced, go call your Daoist Zhang over right now!”
His beautiful little face was cold. “Connect and show his face. The three of us can compare notes together and see who actually has the superior skill!”
“If he doesn’t dare, then shut up! Don’t bark at the sun here and disgust others!”
Looking at Lin Yuan on the screen, with his serious little face and cold aura, Shen Yanzhou chuckled lightly.
He really hadn’t expected his little prisoner to have this side to him.
This must be the real Lin Yuan.
He couldn’t help but think of how he trembled with fear in front of him, crying and begging for mercy beneath him.
Shen Yanzhou felt a pang of reluctance in his heart.
Maybe he really pushed him too hard?
Shen Yanzhou couldn’t help but feel a bit lost.
How should he treat him so that he would understand his feelings, accept his feelings, and stop running away from the bottom of his heart?
In the livestream room, challenged by Lin Yuan, those troublemaking netizens chickened out.
They knew in their hearts that the two people in front of them were true experts.
They had only taken twenty yuan as a promotion fee from that “Daoist Zhang” to run soft ads in various metaphysics livestreams.
The snide voices in the comment section gradually died down.
At the same time, the number of viewers in Old Feng’s livestream began to climb.
Some netizens who happened to see Lin Yuan in the “Master Bai Divination” livestream yesterday started making noise.
[Hey, isn’t this Little Master Qingzhou? Seeing him again. What a coincidence!]
[Little Master Qingzhou is connecting with Old Feng? Looks like today’s hexagram is worth watching!]
[Qingzhou, start your own stream quickly! Sister will be your top donor!]
The livestream room was bustling with noise and excitement.
However, the client, Zhang Jiaxing, wasn’t in a good mood at all right now.
“Two Masters, what on earth is going on?”
“Why have me and my parents… all ended up like this?” Zhang Jiaxing’s breathing was a bit rapid.
Old Feng said, “Brother Zhang, don’t panic. How about this? Aren’t you almost home? We’ll go home with you and check your parents’ situation?”
“We’ll cast another hexagram at your house to confirm the direction of your parents’ Disaster Star. What do you think?”
Zhang Jiaxing thought about it and nodded.
“Well, alright then!” He pointed forward. “That, up ahead, is my home.”
Zhang Jiaxing hung the phone around his neck, dragged his luggage, and quickened his pace toward a small courtyard with a large green iron gate not far ahead.
