After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

Faced with Ye Bai's question, Shen Zhuxiao's face showed a conflicted expression.

Finally, after looking around furtively for a while to make sure no one else was nearby, he whispered, "I can tell you, but you absolutely mustn't tell anyone else."

Seeing Shen Zhu's appearance, Ye Bai and Shen Lu became even more curious and quickly nodded, promising not to tell anyone.

It must be said that gossip is not only human nature, but also one of the few genuine pleasures.

Ye Bai didn't have this habit before, but recently he's been spending a lot of time with Shen Lu and has clearly been infected by this little girl.

Although Lulu isn't very bright, she's far more gossipy than most people.

"There's a treasure in that Buddhist supplies shop!"

Shen Zhu said mysteriously.

"baby?"

Ye Bai and Shen Lu looked at each other, both somewhat dumbfounded.

If it were an ancient temple with a history of thousands of years, it would be understandable if it contained treasures or something similar.

It's just a Buddhist supplies shop; they mainly sell handicrafts, and I doubt many of them cost more than a hundred yuan to buy.

"Look, look, I told you and you still didn't believe me! Let me tell you, I paid a whole thousand dollars for this information!"

Shen Zhu started grumbling, somewhat annoyed.

"A thousand yuan? You bought it?"

Ye Bai found it increasingly unbelievable, and even Shen Lu looked at him with suspicion, saying, "Shen Zhu, you haven't been scammed, have you? If there really was a good treasure, would someone sell it to you for a thousand yuan?"

My silly Lulu has finally figured it out!

Upon hearing these words, Ye Bai felt a surge of emotion, his eyes welling up with tears.

It evokes the feeling of a devoted, hardworking father seeing his mentally challenged daughter finally able to attend primary school...

"Lies my foot! If you don't believe me, fine! I wouldn't even bother explaining it to you!"

Shen Zhu rolled her eyes angrily and turned to leave.

Clearly, the little girl was angry because of Ye Bai and Shen Lu's distrust.

But thinking about it, it's understandable. Someone considers you a good friend and shares such confidential information with you, but you don't believe them. That's really hurtful.

Fortunately, Ye Bai is best at comforting a little foodie when they're heartbroken.

A cup of milk tea, plus a bucket of popcorn.

So Shen Zhu, who was originally angry about gaining weight, was happy again and smiled broadly.

When faced with delicious food, anger is nothing but fleeting clouds, ultimately turning into appetite.

Subsequently, Ye Bai finally figured out what was going on with the "treasures in the Buddhist supplies store".

Shen Zhu wasn't lying; she really did buy this information for a thousand yuan.

But it didn't come from reality, it came from the internet.

Because of her short video live streaming, Shen Zhu, although not yet a major internet celebrity, now has tens of thousands of followers.

Moreover, she has a good personality, is usually easygoing and doesn't have any ulterior motives. She also gets along very well with her fans, and they often chat and joke around together. You could say they talk about anything.

Over time, her fans also learned that she was from Jingzhou and lived in the Eighth District.

Just recently, a fan nicknamed "The Number One Handsome Man of Xuanmen" suddenly sent Shen Zhu a private message, asking her if there was a Buddhist supplies store on Mining Street in District 8.

Shen Zhu didn't know at the time, and even went to the mining street to take a look the next day.

I really saw the result.

So she sent a message to the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" and asked curiously if he also lived in the Eighth District.

Unexpectedly, the "Number One Handsome Man of Xuanmen" said that he was not in the Eighth District, and was not even from Jingzhou.

He had just been to Jingzhou a while ago and happened to visit the Eighth District, so he noticed that Buddhist supplies store.

Upon discovering that the other party was not in Jingzhou and that they could not meet in person, Shen Zhu immediately lost interest.

But then the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" suddenly asked her if she wanted to make a fortune.

Shen Zhu retorted angrily, "Isn't that just stating the obvious? Who doesn't want to get rich these days? If it weren't for earning a few coins, would I be getting harassed by you animals online every day?"

The "Number One Handsome Man of the Mystic Sect" said, "That's quite a coincidence. I happen to know a way to make a fortune. Are you interested? If you are, I can sell you this information."

Not three or four thousand, not even one or two thousand, just 998!

You won't lose out, you won't be cheated, but you can buy a lifetime of prosperity...

Listening to the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" rambling on and on, Shen Zhu almost blocked him.

Finally, she couldn't help but yell, "Are you trying to fool me like I'm an idiot? This advertising slogan is so outdated! If you want to scam people, at least come up with something more modern and professional!"

Unexpectedly, after being scolded by Shen Zhu, the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" was not angry. He simply asked Shen Lu to find an opportunity to go to the steps of the Buddhist supplies shop and see if there was a Bagua diagram on it.

Moreover, it is not the same as the normal Bagua diagram.

Shen Zhu figured she had nothing better to do, so she went to take a look.

Sure enough, the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" was right; there was indeed a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) pattern in the corner of the lowest level of those steps.

The center of a normal Bagua diagram is the Taiji Yin-Yang fish, which is one black and one white.

But this Bagua diagram only has two black fish, and they're the kind without eyes!

Shen Zhu initially thought that the Bagua diagram had faded due to wind and rain, but after looking at it carefully for a long time, she found that this was not the case.

The Bagua diagram on the steps is clearly drawn in this way.

Even so, Shen Zhu didn't think much of it.

These days, there are all sorts of strange things happening. A pure black Bagua diagram is nothing special; it might just be some mischievous kid drawing it as doodles.

It's even possible that the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" secretly drew it on himself.

If drawing a Bagua diagram could earn 998 yuan, Shen Zhu felt she could draw a thousand a day.

The "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" has no chance of tricking her into spending a thousand yuan on information with such clumsy methods!

But Shen Zhu didn't expect that this was just the beginning.

The "Number One Handsome Man of the Xuanmen" seemed to know very well that this small detail alone was not enough to convince Shen Zhu, so he began to throw out one "god-level prediction" after another!

First, they said that the Buddhist supplies store only opens at 3 pm every day and doesn't close until midnight, which is completely different from normal stores.

Shen Zhu didn't believe it, so she specifically checked during those two time periods, and it turned out to be true.

Then, the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" said that this Buddhist supplies store only serves male customers and will refuse entry to women.

Shen Zhu was immediately filled with righteous indignation and wanted to seek justice for women and condemn the gender discrimination of the Buddhist supplies store.

As soon as she stepped onto the stairs, the Buddhist supplies store closed down...

At first, she thought it was a coincidence, but after going several times and experiencing the same thing, she had no choice but to accept it.

However, it wasn't these things that made her decide to spend a thousand yuan to buy the information.

Instead, the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen" told her that the Buddhist supplies shop would be sold in three days, and gave her the exact prices.

Shen Zhu, on a whim, asked one of her brothers, and it turned out to be exactly the same.

Now the little girl was completely convinced and readily transferred 998 yuan to "the most handsome man in the Xuanmen Sect"...

After receiving payment, the "most handsome man in the Xuanmen sect" finally told Shen Zhu that there was a priceless treasure in the Buddhist supplies shop.

There's a hidden compartment in the shop, where the treasure is kept.

As for how to get it, that depends on Shen Zhu's abilities.

So Shen Zhu thought it over and decided that it wouldn't be too late to take over the shop first and then slowly look for treasures.

But because of his hesitation, someone else beat him to it.

"...Didn't you ever think that this 'most handsome man in the Xuanmen sect' is actually the owner of this Buddhist supplies shop, trying to trick you into buying something at an inflated price, and then also scamming you out of 998?"

Ye Bai looked at Shen Zhu and felt a pang of heartache.

This girl and Shen Lu are truly worthy of being sisters; they're both incredibly intelligent.
