I really am a fortune teller
Chapter 43 The Laughing Buddha's Request
But he couldn't fool Jiang Hanyi.
Jiang Hanyi gave Wei Chen a thumbs up, both amused and exasperated.
This was the first time he had ever seen something so outrageous.
Wei Chen waved his hand.
Jiang Hanyi pretended not to see it.
Wei Qingshan was incredibly excited: "In that case, how about we have a big party tonight and a proper meal?"
Wei Chen touched his head, glanced back at Jiang Hanyi, and asked, "Doctor, can I attend a party looking like this?"
Wei Chen's words made Jiang Hanyi laugh heartily: "Of course I can, I want to attend your banquet too."
Wei Qingshan originally intended to invite Jiang Hanyi.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Hanyi agreed so readily.
He was truly flattered and overwhelmed.
You should know how difficult it is to hire a nine-star psychic doctor.
Now this nine-star psychic doctor has become his son's subordinate. Just thinking about it makes Wei Qingshan want to laugh out loud.
While tidying up the hospital bed, Wei Qingshan discovered that Wei Chen's cultivation level had reverted to that of a Star-level fortune teller. Wei Qingshan stared at Wei Chen in disbelief: "What's going on with you? Did your body have another problem and you dropped a level?"
What kind of bizarre idea is it to be demoted?
Wei Chen shook his head helplessly and said, "No, this is just a technique that Jiang Hanyi taught me. After all, I was a one-star fortune teller before, and suddenly I became a four-star fortune teller, which would inevitably arouse suspicion."
Wei Qingshan nodded and put a hand on Wei Chen's shoulder: "Son, you must cultivate hard in the future, accumulate more points, and exchange them for more things in the family. Go to Kunlun again in a year and bring Lin Xueyao back."
Wei Chen nodded heavily.
The banquet was quite grand, because in addition to inviting the neighbors from the tenement building and the managers and staff of Xingchen Pavilion, Wei Qingshan also invited a lot of random people, who were said to be Wei Qingshan's friends.
But when Wei Chen had health problems, he never saw these so-called friends.
These friends seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
However, Wei Qingshan was very happy and didn't care about so much.
Everyone enjoyed the banquet immensely.
Among Wei Qingshan's group of friends was a man named Cloth Bag Monk, who looked Wei Chen up and down with a smile: "Young brother, you look extraordinary. I heard you shone brightly in the martial arts arena back then. I have a job for you, young brother, would you be willing to help me out?"
Wei Qingshan shielded Wei Chen behind him like a protective father, and pointed at the cloth bag monk's nose with annoyance, saying, "You bastard, don't try to take advantage of my son."
“I’m innocent,” the Cloth Bag Monk said with a wry smile. “I’m doing this for your son’s own good. Doesn’t your son need to develop in the future? The Star Pavilion is just dealing with trivial matters all day long, and it doesn’t have much of a future. But what I do can make a lot of money, and most importantly, it has a lot of cultivation resources.”
The words of the Cloth Bag Monk caused Wei Chen's face to freeze. He couldn't quite understand what the Cloth Bag Monk meant by "big job," but judging from Wei Qingshan's trembling expression, it must be something quite impressive.
Wei Chen smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind offer, but I haven't had much time to do such things lately."
The Laughing Buddha looked at Wei Chen with a smile and said, "Don't rush to answer me. I'll put it this way first. If you've thought it through, come find me later." As he spoke, the Laughing Buddha took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Wei Chen.
What Wei Chen needed was merit, something the Laughing Buddha probably never imagined in his lifetime. Therefore, Wei Chen didn't care at all what the Laughing Buddha was trying to do.
However, since he had a system, he cautiously asked, "Can the Cloth Bag Monk bring me a lot of merit points?"
100%
"The job that the Laughing Buddha did can bring me more than 1000 million merit points."
100%
Holy crap! Actually, Wei Chen was just asking casually, and he even just came up with the number on a whim. But he never expected it to be so accurate. He just casually mentioned a number, and it turned out to be the correct one.
Wei Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He swallowed back the words he was about to say in refusal. Looking at the monk with the cloth bag in front of him, Wei Chen's eyes were filled with unprecedented sincerity: "These are all small matters. If I have time in the future, I will definitely help. However, I am only a one-star fortune teller right now, and I don't know how to improve my level."
Wei Qingshan put his paw on Wei Chen's shoulder: "Don't worry, the Cloth Bag Monk is my friend, we're good brothers. If you go with him, you'll definitely be able to improve your level, and he won't look down on you."
The Laughing Buddha smiled and said, "That's natural."
Although the Laughing Buddha didn't understand why Wei Chen changed his mind so quickly, for him, it was a good thing no matter what.
The monk with the extra bag didn't bother to pursue the matter further.
Wei Chen smiled and said, "Then let's have a good time."
This time, everyone had a wonderful time.
The next morning, the Laughing Buddha took Wei Chen away.
The monk with the cloth bag said that he would take Wei Chen with him to train for a period of time, and after a month, he would let Wei Chen join his great cause.
Wei Chen readily agreed.
After all, they can all increase one's merit.
The system also said, "This Cloth Bag Monk can provide you with a lot of merit, although he also has some ulterior motives."
The so-called "unspeakable secret" finally became clear to Wei Chen after he followed the Cloth Bag Monk to that legendary little shop. He finally understood what the Cloth Bag Monk actually did.
This cloth-bag monk was actually a tomb raider.
The legendary tomb raider.
The reason he wanted a particularly skilled fortune teller to accompany him was to ensure the tomb raider's life; these days, tomb raiding was a very high-risk profession.
What reassured Wei Chen was that Jiang Hanyi had also come along this time. According to Jiang Hanyi, he was worried that Wei Chen's meridians might still have problems, or that something might happen to him. Moreover, Jiang Hanyi had stated from the beginning that he wanted to stay with Wei Chen.
Although being pursued by a man every day was indeed a bit strange, for Wei Chen, it was a source of warmth. Finally, someone acknowledged him.
Wei Qingshan originally wanted to follow as well, but his father didn't worry too much and gave Wei Chen all the choices, letting Wei Chen soar and choose his own life.
The Laughing Buddha took Wei Chen to a neighboring city.
On the city's antique street, there was a huge "treasure pavilion," which was actually just an antique shop. It belonged to the Laughing Buddha, or more precisely, to his friends.
Before Wei Chen even entered, he could see a huge black cloud floating on the roof of the Treasure Pavilion. Above the cloud was a skull, and as Wei Chen glanced at it, he saw a silver claw sprout from the skull.
This is no good stuff.
It's obvious that it was done by a feng shui master.
I wonder who the Laughing Buddha has offended.
