The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 27 Shadow Devours its Master
The girl paid the original price directly, then quickly squeezed out of the crowd with her bag.

"No, is this really not a shill? Aren't shills these days so unprofessional? They could at least say something, but they just run away like that, what kind of behavior is that!"

"I never knew making money could be so easy! This is 2000 yuan!"

……

Faced with these comments, Yun Ran remained completely unfazed; this was nothing at all.

In the past, her master's uncle was even more unscrupulous, charging 10 yuan for a fortune telling, while she only charged 2000 yuan. This was a very reasonable price!

Seeing that the sun was shining in their direction, Yunran set up a parasol and placed a small fan on her stall.

Meanwhile, the onlookers all had faces that looked like monkey bottoms from being tanned by the sun.

Qu Ziwei hesitated for a while before finally making up her mind to take pity on Yun Ran's small business.

Just then, a pale-faced man sat down directly in front of Yun Ran before she could.

Qu Ziwei cursed her bad luck inwardly, someone else had beaten her to it again!
Despite the sweltering heat, the man was wearing thick long sleeves, and his lips were even a little purple. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought he came from the freezing cold.

"Master...please, I..."

Yun Ran's gaze darkened, and she shouted at the man behind her, "Get out of the way!"

The onlookers immediately got excited.

"Oh my goodness, who tells someone to get out of the way as soon as they sit down!"

"Just waiting to be proven wrong!"

"whee……"

……

As Yun Ran roared, the man suddenly felt his body lighten, and the freezing sensation he had just felt disappeared.

The man looked at Yun Ran with sparkling eyes, clearly delighted.

Yunran turned her head and called out to the chubby boy not far away, "Bring me a cup of hot water!"

The chubby boy was stunned for a moment, then immediately exclaimed "Hey!" and scurried over to pour a cup of hot water, while also bringing Yun Ran a cup of ice water.

Yun Ran reached out, grasped the cup of hot water, squeezed it firmly, and then handed it to the man: "Drink it!"

The man didn't question it at all, picked up the water, and gulped it down.

The physical discomfort disappeared immediately after drinking the cup of hot water.

He started sweating soon after, and quickly took off his coat.

Seeing that the man's complexion had returned to normal, Yun Ran's gaze swept over the location of his shadow before looking at the man himself.

He then pointed to the sign standing next to him: "Is the price acceptable?"

The man patted his chest, still shaken, and said, "I can accept it. I came here specifically to see you."

This piqued Yunran's curiosity.

The man took out his phone and found a video of Yun Ran that had gone viral: "I saw your charity event banner, so I looked it up specifically."

Yun Ran nodded: "Tell me what you want to be counted as."

The man's face was somewhat bitter: "Master, my family has been in the funeral business for generations. I just finished a deal the day before yesterday, and since then I've gotten myself into trouble."

Despite the sweltering heat, I felt like I was in an ice cave. If I weren't afraid of being stared at, I would have worn a down jacket. My family knows quite a few so-called masters, but when I sought their help, they were terrified and told me to find someone else. You are my last hope.

Yunran carefully examined the man's face. He had no karmic debts and had not recently been involved in any sinful karma. She could help him.

However, those methods are no longer very effective on men.

Yunran rummaged through her bag and finally pulled out a small bell, one of her most handy magical artifacts, the Three Pure Ones Bell.

This wouldn't normally be a big deal, but the ginseng fruit emitted a sharp, popping sound: "Holy crap, how did this thing get here too! Where did you get it from?!"

Yunran completely ignored the squeaking of the ginseng fruit.

She picked up the Three Purities Bell and waved it in front of the man.

Hearing the clear and ethereal sound, the man closed his eyes and fell into his memories. Yun Ran, holding the Three Pure Bells, also jumped into the man's memories.

two days ago.

The man had just delivered a paper villa and a series of other items to the client as requested.

On the way back, I somehow got lost, and the navigation on my phone didn't work.

The amulets he had placed in his car lit up briefly before quickly dimming again, so fast that the man didn't even notice.

As dusk approached, the man grew anxious and accidentally hit a rock with his car.

A crack accidentally appeared in the stone, and a toad suddenly jumped out.

The toad jumped onto the car without him noticing.

Fortunately, he finally found the way, but after returning, he developed health problems.

The masters the man consulted only saw him entangled in countless black lines, as if there was a huge black hole behind him that was about to swallow him up.

When they tried to save the man, the black lines seemed to come alive and directly threatened them.

Those so-called masters were naturally terrified; with their methods, they were nothing more than easy prey.

Having witnessed what had happened, Yunran immediately exited the man's memories, and the man opened his eyes.

He had no idea what had happened before; he only knew that he seemed to be entangled by something until Yunran entered his memory just now.

He then realized what he had encountered before; those eerie black lines sent chills down his spine.

"Master, please save me!!!"

"Those black lines you see are your shadows. The ones that want to devour you are also your shadows. Have you ever heard of a shadow devouring its master?"

Although I don't know what great fortune your shadow has received, it has indeed developed sentience and even wants to replace you.

Your ancestors must have done many good deeds; that blessing has protected you. When your shadow tried to devour you, you saved the sealed toad, and it saved your life.

The man was covered in goosebumps. He had just relived his memories from God's perspective and seen the toad.

He thought he was being entangled by the toad, but it turns out that it was the toad that saved him?
"Master, what should I do!"

Before figuring out why the shadow developed sentience, using simple and crude methods could very well harm the real thing.

Yun Ran immediately drew a talisman on the spot and handed it to the man: "This talisman will keep you safe for a month. Only after we find out what made your shadow develop sentience can we completely solve the problem that is bothering you."
