Fortune Teller

But what if the life extension fails?

The white-haired young man turned his head and looked deeply at the girl, as if looking at his lover. His eyes were complicated, filled with excitement, expectation, helplessness, and guilt.

The two of them have reached the foot of Kunwu Mountain, but the girl still doesn't know what Master Xi Ming is planning in his heart.

"Girl, let's go up the mountain!" The white-haired young man's eyes returned to calmness.

Kunwu Mountain is majestic and majestic, surrounded by continuous mountains. Deep in the mountains, a palace stands faintly.

The two of them walked forward, climbed over two mountain peaks, and finally arrived in front of the palace.

The girl looked up and saw the palace gate towering, three feet high, no more, no less.

Behind the palace gate, there is a vast platform, which is paved with white marble and intricate patterns are carved on the jade.

"There is such a huge palace in Kunwu Mountain. Could it be the emperor's palace today?" The girl looked surprised.

She originally thought that this palace was hidden in the mountains and should be a Taoist temple, but when she walked in front of it, she found that there were no Taoist priests here at all, only thousands of craftsmen, busy hammering on the jade platform.

Seeing the young man and the girl appear at the gate of the palace, a bald man in a green shirt walked over quickly and said impatiently: "Leave quickly, don't you know this is Master Qin's territory?"

"Master Qin, who is Master Qin?" the girl asked.

"Of course it's Master Qin, the most famous and wealthy man in Yongzhou!" The bald man looked proud.

"It turns out it's him," the girl frowned immediately, "Brother Xi Ming, Qin Baishou was the richest man in the world twenty years ago. Later he retired to the mountains and forests and disappeared without a trace. Unexpectedly, he was hiding in Kunwu Mountain."

"Yes, this old guy is already seventy-three years old!" The white-haired young man's tone was full of envy.

Although he had divine powers, fifty years of his life were cut off because of this. Who can tell the gains and losses?

"Please tell me that an old friend is here," the white-haired young man said solemnly. "If Mr. Qin asks for his name, he will say that he has no name and no surname. He is just a man who cherishes his life."

The bald man looked suspicious. The young man in front of him had white hair but no wrinkles on his face. He was indeed different from ordinary people.

Perhaps, this person really has an old relationship with his master.

"You two, wait here for a moment."

The bald man left in a hurry, crossing the white marble platform and entering the palace at the back.

Just a moment later, the bells in the palace rang loudly, and hundreds of slaves and maids came out. The leader was an old man with white eyebrows and a long beard, wearing a purple-patterned gold robe. After seeing the white-haired young man, he suddenly laughed, " I haven’t seen you for so many years, but I can’t believe that you still have the same style. You are indeed a member of the Destiny clan!”

"Master Qin is joking. I have always had a hard life. I am no better than Master Qin. I have billions in wealth and thousands of servants. Even in this deep mountain and old forest, I can live a life like a god." The white-haired young man glanced at it. The servants and maids on both sides showed a bit of envy.

"Sir, what you said is going to upset me. Come follow me in!"

Qin Baishou seemed to be particularly familiar with the young man, so he pulled his robe and invited him into the palace.

"Hu Laosan, who is that person who can actually make Master Qin be so polite?" The craftsman on the platform asked the bald man quietly.

"I didn't know that this person said that he was nameless and just a man who cherished his life." The bald man also looked confused. "After I reported the truth to the master, the master hurriedly came out."

"Master Qin is the richest man in the world and has many masters under his command. He doesn't even look down on the celebrities in the world, but he is so polite to the white-haired young man. Is he from the imperial court?" The craftsmen whispered.

"Don't say a few words. Have you finished carving the jade?" A servant walked out of the palace and saw the noisy craftsmen. He immediately scolded: "That person inside is the distinguished guest of the master. You are not afraid of the master's punishment for your discussion. Come on." Are you going out?"

The craftsmen quickly closed their mouths and continued to hammer the jade.

Although this place is located deep in the mountains and old forests, the pay is also extremely generous. One month of work can pay for half a year, so the craftsmen work extremely hard.

Inside the palace.

Green smoke curled up from the incense burner. Qin Baishou and the white-haired young man sat opposite each other, with a game of Go between them.

"Sir, we haven't seen each other for many years, how about we play a game of chess?" Qin Baishou said with a smile.

"No need, Mr. Qin knows that I never like playing chess." The white-haired young man shook his head, picked up the tea beside him, and drank it in one gulp. "On the contrary, your Dahongpao here is very nourishing. If you can drink more, A few drinks will not waste your life.”

"Although I don't like chess, sir, I have played chess with you several times, but I can't beat you." Qin Bai winked, and the maid beside him quickly added new tea.

The white-haired young man smiled lightly.

The Destiny clan understands the secrets of heaven and plays chess with him. Every move is calculated clearly. How can they win?

The girl on the side looked at the two people and couldn't help but yawned.

She had followed Gu Yuncong since she was a child, and she knew a lot about ancient books and martial arts, but when it came to playing chess, she knew nothing about it.

"I was busy playing chess with my husband, so I almost forgot to ask, could this person next to my husband be your confidante?" Qin Bai glanced at the girl and couldn't help joking.

"Master Qin, please don't ruin this girl's reputation," the white-haired young man said repeatedly, "This is Miss Gu Yue. Her grandfather, Gu Yuncong, the Splitting Mountain Master, has a very high reputation in the world."

"It turns out she is the granddaughter of Pi Shanzhang," Qin Bai said with a strange look on his eyes, "Gu Yuncong has superb legs and hands. If he were here, where in the world would he not be able to go?"

"So I am here to ask Mr. Qin's craftsmen to work harder and complete the deceiving hexagram array within three months."

"I see."

Qin Baishou understood clearly.

There was a hidden edge in the words of the two people. The girl who listened was confused and had no idea what on earth they were talking about.

…

After more than two months, the white-haired young man lived with the girl.

At the same time, Qin Baishou posted martial arts posts widely and invited countless martial arts heroes to enter Kunwu Mountain one after another, including the miracle doctor Lu Xiang and the sword master Gai Zhen.

The white-haired young man has always lived in a simple way. In addition to breathing with the girl and practicing Taoism and Seeking Truth, he also taught her the way of deduction.

"Little girl, I have never loved reading or writing, nor have I ever loved music, chess, calligraphy or painting. My only achievements are fortune-telling and fortune-telling," the white-haired young man said with far-sighted eyes. "No one in the world can do this. Comparable to the Destiny Clan.”

The way the Destiny clan practices deduction is completely different from that of ordinary people.

The reason why fortune-telling is so mysterious and difficult for the world to understand is because there are infinite possibilities in the future, and each possibility represents a method of deduction.

And how many methods can be recorded in the world's classics?

Deducing the mysteries of heaven and earth with limited secret methods is like feeling the magic of the vast ocean from a drop of clear water. It is simply wishful thinking.

The Tianming clan is just the opposite. They first understand the cause and effect, and then trace back to the source. Once they have the Tao, they can inversely deduce the law, and naturally they will not make mistakes.

"Brother Xi Ming, the Destiny Clan has insight into the secrets of heaven and can see the past and the future. Do you still need to learn how to deduce?" the girl asked curiously.

"Do you really think that the Destiny Clan is omnipotent?" The white-haired young man sneered, "If it is true that it is omnipotent, why can't it even extend its own lifespan? The Destiny Clan's magical powers are given by heaven and are also controlled by heaven. It is only useful for mortals. Once it involves seeking immortality, it loses its power completely."

"And the way of deduction is a great way between heaven and earth. It is infinitely mysterious and contains all the changes in the world. If it can be understood, it can break the curse of destiny. Therefore, for countless years, the people of the destiny tribe have devoted themselves to understanding the method of deduction."
