After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 28 Every strand of hair is screaming

"what?"

Li Yaoyao was greatly disappointed and almost let out a groundhog scream.

But she could only tell herself that the master had his reasons for doing this, and at this moment she certainly didn't dare to be arrogant. She could only pitifully plead, "Master, we're just two weak women, we can't withstand a vengeful ghost! You have to come quickly—yes, yes, I'll transfer you 50,000 yuan for travel expenses first, buy a business class seat and come over comfortably!! Hurry up! Please! Waaaaah—"

Because Huang Sen wanted her to stay overnight, Wang Ting was "invited" out, and then they lost contact.

She now only has her best friend who has been cursed and her niece who has turned into a vengeful ghost by her side—the key is that both of them are out of control!

She can't leave Liu Meiqing, or she'll be easily swayed by her ghost niece. But Meiqing is under a curse. If Huang Sen comes back and gives her some instructions, she'll only have a little more humanity than her ghost niece!
My life is so miserable!!!
Li Yaoyao really wanted to cry herself to death in the toilet.

But he was in such good health that he was full of energy.

"WeChat payment received - 50,000 yuan".

The QR code for paying for groceries last time wasn't turned off, and Li Yaoyao's transfer was announced so clearly. Bai Lu raised an eyebrow, Bai Chen's body trembled, and he felt a chill run down his spine, from head to toe. He almost couldn't hold onto the steering wheel!

Even though Bailu didn't turn on the speakerphone, she was sitting in the passenger seat!

He couldn't hear everything on the phone, but he caught bits and pieces of what the woman was saying, and it was definitely not something that happened in the mortal world!
In addition, he clearly heard his sister say—

Ghost baby!

What a ghost!

reincarnation!

Sorcerer!
Raising a ghost child!
Fierce ghost!

He can understand each word individually, but when they are put together, his brain's defense mechanism resists his ability to comprehend their meaning!
What do you mean?
He had only just found out that his sister might be a fortune teller, and now it sounded like she could also catch ghosts!
His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was completely dead!

The world has completely turned upside down!

Bai Lu glanced at Bai Chen, who was trembling like a leaf, patted the top of his head, and channeled a wisp of spiritual energy into him to prevent him from losing his composure and causing her to fall into the ditch.

He then comforted Li Yaoyao, saying, "Don't cry. Take it easy. The master that the domestic abuser first sought out couldn't do anything to your little ghost baby. He went out to find someone again today and won't be back until noon tomorrow. Don't worry, I'll find you before he comes back. Send me your address."

Finally, he assured her twice that he would definitely be able to get there the next day, and even taught her a way to temporarily save her life before hanging up the phone. Then she saw the address that Li Yaoyao had sent over very quickly.

At this moment, Bai Chen had already pulled over and was looking at Bai Lu warily: "Who are you! Where's my sister! Don't try to deny it, my sister is just an ordinary person, so timid that she needs a nightlight to sleep at night, how could she dare to catch ghosts! You—are you human or ghost! Get out of my sister's body right now! Otherwise, I'll be very rude to you!!"

He shifted his position, leaning against the car door and holding onto the doorknob. If anything went wrong, he needed to make sure he could grab the car and escape immediately!

Before Bai Lu transmigrated, she was indeed afraid of ghosts, so much so that she couldn't sleep without a blanket to seal her feet. However, after going out for trials with her fellow disciples a few times, she became immune to them.

Don't be afraid of the little devils, the big devils can't escape.

Afraid of a hammer!

"Oh?" Bai Lu looked at Bai Chen, who was all bark and no bite, and wanted to laugh. She raised her eyebrows, curled her lips into a wicked smile, and twirled a strand of hair behind her ear. She chuckled, "Then I'd like to see how you're going to treat me rudely!"

Ah ah ah ah ah!

This person is definitely not a good person!

Every single strand of Bai Chen's hair seemed to be screaming!
But he was also choked by these words. He had just transformed from a clear-headed college student into a miserable corporate slave who had been beaten down by society for a year. How could he deal with someone who could tell fortunes and catch ghosts and who didn't even know if they were human or ghost?
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. No matter what, he had to fight to the death and find out where his sister was!

"Alright, with your skills, you can't even pluck a hair from my head. Use that new brain of yours worth a hundred million. If I weren't your own sister, what would I be staying in your house for? For your elderly father? Your sick mother? Your debt-ridden second sister? And you, penniless? For your family's two hundred thousand in debt? For me having too much money and nowhere to spend it, so I'm just watching you desperately pay off Bai Wei's loan?"

Bai Chen paused as he threw his punch, a sudden thought flashing through his mind. He realized that the person in front of him was right. If she wasn't his own sister, how could she possibly have spent 80,000 yuan on Bai Wei all at once?

He immediately grinned, revealing eight big white teeth, and scratched the back of his head with a silly grin: "Yeah!"

He released the doorknob and rushed towards Bailu, his eyes brimming with tears: "Sister! Dear sister! I thought you'd been possessed by something like in those novels!! How terrifying! Tell me honestly, how did you learn fortune telling and ghost catching! To be honest, I almost peed my pants!"

"Since you read novels, you must know about time travel, right? I'm just a nobody who took a trip to the cultivation world and came back!"

The egret gently raised its chin, waiting for its little brother's admiration!
Bai Chen's eyes lit up: "The cultivation world?! Wow—novels often say that after ascension, one can shatter the void and travel back and forth between various small worlds! Is that true? Then you must be incredibly powerful, sister! In the cultivation world, do people affectionately call you Ancestor White Egret?!"

Egret: "..."

The filter doesn't need to be this heavy!
Don't you know what kind of person your sister is?

Your blind worship only makes me feel awkward!
Bai Lu coughed lightly and mumbled, "That's all in the past! My current body has no cultivation, so I have to start cultivating from scratch!"

"Cultivation!!" Bai Chen's eyes shone like torches: "Yes, yes, you can tell fortunes and catch ghosts, of course you can cultivate! Teach me, teach me! Holy crap! I'm quitting my job, quitting right now! I'm going to cultivate immortality, why would I need a job!"

He said it himself: his sister never does anything without a certainty; how could she possibly quit her job and come back to farm with nothing to her name?
So she knows how to cultivate immortality!
Just think about the 50,000 yuan that just arrived in my account!
Bai Chen's heart immediately calmed down.

God knows how much pressure he's been under these past two days!

My second sister is in debt, my eldest sister quit her job without notice, and I only earn five thousand yuan a month!

Are you under so much stress that you're going bald?
Now it's all good!

His sister can cultivate immortality!
Oh ho ho ho ho!
Cultivating immortality!!!
"You and your second sister both have dual spiritual roots, so you can cultivate. I'll teach you when I get back."

Bai Lu originally wanted to impress him, but failed. Since Bai Chen already knows, she'll just teach him. It's no big deal!

Once you can cultivate, you'll become a perpetual motion machine, an ox or a horse!
value!
Bai Chen knew nothing about his future life. He was extremely excited when he heard that he could cultivate immortality, but he was a little worried when he heard that Bai Lu had to go out on business: "The vengeful ghost is not easy to deal with, is it? What level is your cultivation now? Can you win? Why don't I go with you?"

Bai Lu completely ignored Bai Chen's last sentence and said, "So now you have to take me to Sanqing Mountain."

"Huh? What's the connection between these two things?"

"Mount Sanqing is imbued with spiritual energy; I need to go there to break through my current limitations."

Bai Chen was impressed but didn't understand. Although Bai Lu didn't plan to include him in this ghost-catching game, he didn't make a fuss. After all, he really wasn't prepared to see this kind of thing.

He had no choice but to immediately drive her to Sanqing Mountain. Before getting out of the car, Bailu instructed, "The wild vegetables we sell now are all grown by me using spiritual energy. To exaggerate a bit, they're like the spiritual plants from novels. Eating more of them will definitely strengthen your body and prolong your life. Besides the area in Black Stone Pit, I also grew a patch in White Stone Hollow not far away, about two hundred bundles in total. I can probably pick another fifty bundles the day after tomorrow. After that, you'll have to wait for me to come back." Bai Chen: "!!!"

Spiritual plants!!
What a huge loss!

"Why didn't you say so sooner!" Bai Chen was extremely upset: "Spirit plants! How much money did we lose out on!"

"Let's take it slow at the beginning. It's not too late to raise the price once our farming plan is on track!"

"Okay, it's up to you!"

Bai Chen imagined his own spiritual plants being sold for exorbitant prices, and living a life of luxury, and couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, you can go back."

Bai Lu waved goodbye, bought a ticket on her phone as usual, and headed up the mountain.

Because she was in a hurry, she cast a small invisibility spell on herself and sped away, arriving at the ancient ginkgo tree in no time.

Bai Chen felt a blur before his eyes, and his sister, such a big person, disappeared brightly before him. His heart, which longed to cultivate immortality, jumped up and down. In the future, he would also cultivate to be like that!
Without saying a word, he took out his phone and tearfully complained to his boss that his second sister's condition was deteriorating and she was about to pass away, so he was going to resign to take care of her!

His leadership of silence was a wake-up call.

-

"We meet again, little ginkgo."

The egret gently stroked the leaves of the ginkgo tree, and the branches of the small ginkgo tree swayed: "Hello, little egret! It's so nice to see you!"

Egret: "..."

How polite, how formal! The last time she saw such a standard greeting was in an English book.

After chatting with the little ginkgo tree for a while, the egret asked it for some branches and set up a spirit-gathering array next to the stone. Once the array was complete, spiritual energy surged in from all directions. The egret sat cross-legged on the stone and slowly disappeared, so that even if tourists came by, they wouldn't be able to see her.

The ancient tree itself contains spiritual energy and can also be used as a material for setting up formations. The spiritual energy that Bai Lu felt in the formation was unprecedentedly rich. She continuously absorbed it into her body, circulated it, compressed it, and returned it to her dantian, repeating the cycle endlessly.

Sanqing Temple.

A young Taoist priest had just returned to the temple after finishing the Xuanmen Exchange Conference. His master, Taoist Qingxu, and two junior brothers still had some matters to attend to, so he came back first to handle the temple's affairs, since he hadn't been back for more than a month.

Before he could even touch the prayer mat, he suddenly felt all the spiritual energy in the mountain rushing towards the location of the ancient ginkgo tree. Startled, he thought the ancient ginkgo tree had broken through its cultivation level, and hurriedly rushed over there.

To their surprise, upon arrival, they discovered that the place was actually set up with an array, and at the center of the array was a beautiful young girl they had never seen before.

She is cultivating within the formation!

The young Taoist priest was startled. Xicheng was under his jurisdiction, and he knew almost all of the eighteen cultivators in his area, but there was definitely no one like this among them!

Could it be that she is a cultivator from another jurisdiction?
But we haven't received any reports of any cultivators coming to the West City!
Or is she a newly initiated cultivator who only began to cultivate Qi during the days they were away from West City?!
No, no, this is definitely no ordinary cultivator!

If he wasn't mistaken, this was a spirit-attracting array. With his cultivation level, even if he used the finest spirit jade to set up a spirit-attracting array, he could only draw the spiritual energy of one mountain peak, and it would only last for an hour. But she used only the branches of an ancient ginkgo tree. Looking at the cut surface, there were still thorns. It was obviously broken off by hand!
It actually stirred up the spiritual energy of the entire Sanqing Mountain!
Sanqingshan, how many peaks there are!
The young Taoist priest was filled with regret, feeling like he had missed out on a treasure. He wished he could immediately include her in the list of cultivators in the West City, but unfortunately, that would be against the rules!
Bai Lu knew about the young Taoist priest's arrival but didn't sense any malice from him, so she ignored him. However, when she felt his increasingly ardent gaze, she had no choice but to open her eyes.

"What does this fellow Taoist do for you?"

The person in front of her was three levels higher in cultivation than her, and he could easily see through her invisibility technique, so it was not surprising that he could see her.

The ancient ginkgo tree swayed its branches, its voice cheerful: "Little egret, this is Xiao Songfeng, the disciple of Xiao Qingxu that I told you about!"

"So it's Master Songfeng, a pleasure to meet you." Bailu nodded politely, but didn't get up; she was still eager to cultivate. "Is there something you need, Master?"

Master Songfeng didn't care about these formalities and asked in a gentle voice, "Is this the spirit-summoning array you set up?"

Bai Lu was puzzled. Why would anyone ask such a pointless question? Wasn't it obvious? She was all alone here!

“It’s me,” Bailu said. “However, this is a Spirit Gathering Array, an improved version of the Spirit Summoning Array.”

In the cultivation world, spirit-summoning arrays can only attract a small amount of spiritual energy and have long been phased out. She hadn't heard the name in a long time. Could it be that spirit-summoning arrays are still in use in modern times?
Is Taoism really that outdated?
"Spirit Gathering Array?"

I've never heard of such a formation before. It's only one word different from the Spirit-Guiding Formation, yet the effects are worlds apart.

If such a formation were set up in the Sanqing Palace, even without cultivating, simply staying there would yield twice the results with half the effort!

"May I ask which district you belong to, fellow cultivator? I am the head of the Western City Xuanmen stronghold. I wonder if you have any thoughts about transferring districts? Our district offers many benefits and rewards!"

This sentence was incredibly informative for Bailu. She immediately focused on the words "mystical sect stronghold" and perked up instantly.

"Are you referring to a non-governmental or official organization when you say the Xuanmen stronghold is a civilian organization?"

"It's official, of course!"

After saying that, Master Songfeng realized something was wrong: "You...don't know?"

"I do not know!"

"You're not from another jurisdiction?"

"I'm from the village next to Sanqing Mountain."

Ancient Ginkgo Tree: "The little egret was breathing in energy right under my tree, I saw it with my own eyes!"

This is what it means to find a treasure!

Master Songfeng almost burst out laughing, but then he thought better of it: "Then who taught you your spirit-gathering array?"

Such an advanced formation couldn't have been learned without a teacher!
