My understanding is incredible: I gained enlightenment and immortality in the Kunlun Demon Kingdom

"Actually, this jade bracelet was a gift from a master," Lin Wanqing said slowly.

"A master? What kind of master?" Chen Ze asked curiously.

Lin Wanqing smiled and said, "A fortune teller. He can predict the future and foresee good and bad fortune. He is very accurate, and he is also proficient in various esoteric arts. It is said that he can even understand the secrets of heaven!"

"That's amazing? Where is he now?" Chen Ze pressed.

Lin Wanqing shook her head and sighed, "He has been dead for several years, otherwise I would definitely have taken you to visit him."

"I see, what a pity," Chen Ze said regretfully.

"Mr. Chen Ze, do you believe in divination?" Lin Wanqing suddenly asked.

"Well, it's better to believe it's true than not to believe it's not," Chen Ze replied ambiguously.

Lin Wanqing smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Chen Ze, if you are interested, I can give you a fortune reading, free of charge!"

"Really? Then I'll have to trouble Miss Lin." Chen Ze's interest was piqued upon hearing this.

Lin Wanqing smiled slightly, reached into her bag and took out a tarot card, handing it to Chen Ze and saying, "Mr. Chen Ze, please draw a card from here."

Chen Ze took the tarot cards and randomly drew one.

Lin Wanqing took the card, examined it carefully, and suddenly frowned, as if she had encountered some problem.

Seeing this, Chen Ze asked in confusion, "Miss Lin, what's wrong? Was the divination result bad?"

"Mr. Chen Ze, I'm sorry, this divination is a bit complicated, and I can't interpret it in a short time," Lin Wanqing said, frowning.

“It’s alright, Miss Lin, take your time, I can wait,” Chen Ze said with a smile.

“Mr. Chen Ze, based on my current understanding, you may be facing a major calamity soon, and this calamity is related to the people around you.” Lin Wanqing hesitated for a moment before stating her divination results.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ze's expression changed slightly, and an ominous premonition immediately rose in his heart.

"Miss Lin, what should I do?" Chen Ze asked hurriedly.

"Mr. Chen Ze, please don't worry. This is just my initial assessment. The specific situation still needs further analysis. Please wait patiently," Lin Wanqing comforted him.

Chen Ze nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll leave it to Miss Lin."

"Mr. Chen Ze, you're too kind. It's my honor to serve you," Lin Wanqing said with a smile.

The two continued chatting, but the topic had shifted to divination and the art of Qimen Dunjia.

Chen Ze was very interested in divination and the art of Qimen Dunjia, while Lin Wanqing was very knowledgeable about these subjects. The two chatted enthusiastically, seemingly forgetting the time.

Before they knew it, it was already noon. Chen Ze glanced at his watch and said, "Ms. Lin, time flies. We've been chatting for over two hours. I'm sorry to have bothered you."

"Mr. Chen Ze, you're too kind. I'm very happy to chat with you," Lin Wanqing said with a smile.

“Miss Lin, how about we have lunch together? It’s on me,” Chen Ze suggested.

Guiyue breathed a slight sigh of relief, noticing that Chen Ze seemed somewhat puzzled by the villagers' attitude.

She understood that this unfamiliar and terrifying environment was already putting Chen Ze under immense pressure.

Tian Siyao and the others arrived at the entrance of Lotus Village.

They could sense a sense of oppression and unease permeating the entire village.

Tian Siyao was immediately filled with a desire to explore the unknown.

She knew that if she wanted to uncover the secrets hidden in Lotus Village, she had to stay there for a while.

Chen Ze was filled with curiosity about this unfamiliar yet mysterious village, but he also felt a little uneasy.

He looked around, trying to find some clues in the layout of the village.

He couldn't help but ask Tian Siyao, "Are you really sure we should stay here?"

"This place doesn't seem very friendly."

Tian Siyao glanced back at Chen Ze and found the answer in his firm and courageous expression. "We've decided to investigate the truth."

"Whether it's to heal your injuries or to uncover the secrets hidden here, we need to stay here."

Tian Siyao turned to Qin Miyue, "We need to find the herbs needed to treat Chen Ze's injuries; this is essential."

Qin Miyue smiled and replied, "The lotus grass has special properties; it can treat injuries and also has a certain effect on lifting curses."

"Now we need Guiyue to guide us so we can find out the exact location of the Lotus Lake Grass."

Upon hearing this news, Tian Siyao understood.

She realized that her decision was the right one.

Looking at the villagers' gloomy expressions, she knew they were being controlled by something, so she felt even more compelled to help them.

“Not just for ourselves, but if the lotus grass can really lift the curse, I will do my best to help this village.”

Guiyue listened to Tian Siyao's words and felt her kind heart.

"Thank you so much for your help!" A hint of gratitude flashed in her eyes.

Gui stared at Tian Siyao and the others, her tightly furrowed brows revealing her inner struggle.

She calmly asked, "When do you need lotus grass?"

Tian Siyao looked at Guiyue with sincere eyes: "Our friend's injuries are serious; he was injured by an evil spirit."

"The black substance produced by the evil spirit seems to possess otherworldly power, which makes the wounds difficult to heal."

Hearing these words, Guiyue's worries grew even more.

She found an open space to sit down and gestured for Tian Siyao and the others to surround her.

"It's not a good thing that this black substance is generating abnormal power."

“I know that there are many mysteries and dangers in the tomb, and if we are not careful, we may suffer the consequences.”

Qin Miyue clenched her fists and said with determination, "I understand, but those evil spirits are all inside the ancient tomb now, so you don't need to worry."

Guiyue nodded. "Okay, you can find a large area where lotus grass grows if you go north along the mountain.

"But remember, this precious plant can only be harvested at specific times and is very difficult to find."

"After all, they possess healing power and are treasures that many people yearn to obtain," she solemnly warned Tian Siyao and the others.

Tian Siyao nodded solemnly, "Please rest assured, we will be careful, it's all for our friends."

"If we succeed in obtaining the herbs, will the village help us unravel the secrets of the black substance in the ancient tomb?"

Guiyue turned her gaze to the starry night sky.

"If you can help us unravel the mysteries of the ancient tomb and ensure that the tomb no longer poses any danger to the outside world."

“I assure you that the entire village will be open to you and we will do everything we can to help you achieve your goals.”

Tian Siyao and Qin Miyue exchanged a glance; they could sense the kindness hidden beneath the utilitarian motives.

“We promise you!” they said in unison.

At this moment, Chen Ze was extremely anxious, and he quickly walked towards Gui Yue.

Her eyes pleaded for help: "Sister Guiyue, my injuries are getting worse, and I'm afraid that delaying will be dangerous."

Guiyue gently grasped Chen Ze's hand: "Don't worry, we'll find a way to save you."

She turned to Tian Siyao and Qin Miyue and said, "This is Water Mist Cliff, the place where lotus grass grows most commonly and is most concentrated."

"But the cliff face is very steep and therefore very slippery."

"We must proceed with caution to ensure our safety," Tian Siyao indicated that she understood. (End of Chapter)
