Chapter 1071: Easier than Fortune Telling

Lin Shen had no intention of fortune-telling right now, but with this person in the hall, he couldn't do his own thing.

After a brief hesitation, Lin Shen walked over, sat opposite the old star priest and asked, "How much does it cost for a fortune telling?"

"It depends on fate." The old star priest took out a card swipe machine and placed it in front of Lin Shen.

Lin Shen took out his card and swiped one hundred Taixu coins.

Money can make the gods know what is happening, so he directly paid one hundred Taixu coins. In addition to wanting to hear some nice words so that the old star priest would not say some nonsense to upset him, he also wanted the star priest to leave quickly after the calculation.

When the old star priest saw the 100 Taixu coins that Lin Shen had swiped in, he didn't react at all. He just smiled and asked, "Sir, what do you want to ask?"

"I want to transfer jobs recently. Can you help me calculate whether my transfer can be successful?" Lin Shen said casually, but he was thinking in his heart: "I have given you a hundred yuan, you have to say a few nice and auspicious words to me."

After hearing this, the old star priest picked up a tortoise shell next to the table, stretched out his right hand from his sleeve, and held three copper coins between his fingers.

He put three copper coins into the tortoise shell, then held the tortoise shell with both hands and shook it a few times. When he stopped, the old star priest's expression became a little strange.

Lin Shen looked at the tortoise shell in the hands of the old star priest and felt a little strange.

Lin Shen had also seen this method of fortune-telling using copper coins and tortoise shells in his hometown. At this time, the copper coins in the tortoise shell should fall out from the opening of the shell.

However, the opening of the tortoise shell in the hands of the old star priest was clearly facing downwards, but the copper coins inside did not fall out of the opening.

Lin Shen thought that the methods of the Star God Palace were different from those of his hometown, but he saw the old Star Priest shaking his hands again, and he could hear the sound of the copper coins rolling and colliding inside, confirming that the copper coins were inside.

When the old star priest stopped again, the opening of the turtle shell was facing downwards, but still no copper coins fell out.

The old star priest's expression became more and more strange. He couldn't help but lift up the tortoise shell and took a closer look.

"That's right, the copper coin is inside and it's not stuck, so how come it can't fall out?" Shi Zhongqing's mind was full of question marks. He had never encountered such a thing in his life.

He shook it again, trying to pour out the copper coins inside, but he couldn't. The three copper coins seemed to be stuck to the tortoise shell.

Shi Zhongqing put down the tortoise shell and reached inside. He easily took out the three copper coins, which were neither stuck nor stuck.

"What's wrong?" Lin Shen noticed something was wrong and asked Shi Zhongqing.

"Wait a moment." Shi Zhongqing looked at Lin Shen deeply, then put the copper coins back into the tortoise shell, shook it a few times again, and when he wanted to pour out the copper coins, he found that they still could not be poured out.

After trying a few more times, no matter how Shi Zhongqing shook it, the coins inside would not come out. But when he reached in to take them out, he was able to take them out easily.

Shi Zhongqing put down the tortoise shell, looked at Lin Shen with a strange look and said, "What's your name, sir?"

"Ah Tian." Lin Shen directly gave his name.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to leave your name. I just want to know your surname." Shi Zhongqing shook his head and looked at Lin Shen and asked again: "Is your surname Zhang?"

Lin Shen shook his head and said, "My last name is not Zhang, and I have nothing to do with anyone with the last name Zhang."

"That's strange." Shi Zhongqing looked at Lin Shen with some disbelief, but with his experience, he could tell that Lin Shen was not lying.

"Why is it strange that my last name is not Zhang?" Lin Shen asked curiously. Shi Zhongqing did not answer Lin Shen's question, and said thoughtfully: "I can't tell this fortune, but the money has been taken, there is absolutely no reason to withdraw it, otherwise it will be very unlucky. How about this, don't you want to transfer your job? I will help you transfer your job."

Lin Shen found it a little funny. A fortune teller who couldn't even tell the fortune correctly actually wanted to help him transfer jobs. No matter how he listened to this, it didn't sound very reliable.

Shi Zhongqing was so experienced that he could see through Lin Shen's distrust at a glance. He smiled and said, "You are the Star God Officer, right? What department do you want to be transferred to? I have been in the Star God Palace for so many years, so I still have some connections."

"I am the Star Priest of the South District." Lin Shen did not explain the words, but he made them very clear.

"You want to be transferred from the Changsheng Star Palace to the Zhongtian Star Palace?" Shi Zhongqing was a little surprised, but not shocked.

"Not bad, is it okay?" Lin Shen asked.

"Of course I can. This is much easier than fortune-telling." Shi Zhongqing laughed, "Why do you want to be transferred out of the Changsheng Star Palace?"

"I've offended someone. I want to be transferred, but I'm afraid they won't let me go so easily." Lin Shen said half-truthfully.

"It's simple. I have taken your money and I must get this done for you. What is the name you registered with the Star God Palace?" Shi Zhongqing asked.

"A Tian is my name." Lin Shen replied.

Shi Zhongqing nodded, took out a device that looked like a tablet, swiped around on it and asked, "Who did you offend?"

"Wu Qing, the acting high priest of the South District." Lin Shen didn't know whether this old star priest was fooling him or he really had the ability.

But there's no harm in trying, and he can't do anything to himself.

With this old star priest here, it is impossible to use the intelligent computer here.

Shi Zhongqing paused while swiping the tablet, raised his head and looked at Lin Shen and said, "No wonder you were so anxious to be transferred. You actually offended the high priest."

"Can this still be done?" Lin Shen asked calmly.

"Yes, I've taken your money and I will definitely get the job done for you." Shi Zhongqing lowered his head and continued to swipe on the tablet. No one knew what he was doing.

Lin Shen was anxious, but there was nothing he could do but wait here.

"I don't know how much time Deng Kuang can delay. If this old star priest doesn't leave, there will be no hope today." Lin Shen didn't believe that this old star priest could transfer him from the South District. He was thinking about what to do. He didn't know if Deng Kuang could bring him here again tomorrow.

Just as he was thinking about it, he glanced outside the hall and saw Deng Kuang and a nine-star priest walking towards him.

"It seems like it really won't work today." Lin Shen sighed in his heart.

After the two of them entered the temple, Deng Kuang saw Lin Shen and was about to say hello, but his eyes fell on Shi Zhongqing behind the table.

"High Priest?" Deng Kuang looked at Shi Zhongqing and said with some surprise.

The Nine-Star Priest standing by also saluted Shi Zhongqing.

Lin Shen looked at Shi Zhongqing in astonishment. He did not expect that this old star priest would be the great priest Shi Zhongqing of the Zhongtian star region.
