Fortune telling? How do you explain your hand-drawn lightning magic and sword flight?

As soon as Xiaolin sent a Carnival gift, a live chat request appeared.

Chen Xuan accepted the live call, and the screen was split in two.

It can be seen that the person on the live stream is a young man, dressed simply, with dark skin, but for some reason his lips are very dry, as if his body is extremely dehydrated.

Chen Xuan frowned slightly when he saw Xiao Lin.

Meanwhile, the fans in the live stream started sending barrages of comments and making a fuss.

Wang Dachui: [Hey bro, are you here to ask Xiaowen about her future marriage prospects?]

[I'll offer 50 for your chance to win this lucky bag. Are you interested? I need to ask about Chang Xiaowen's future marriage.]

[Damn, I'd be willing to pay 100 million if I could transfer the chance to win a lucky bag!]

"This shouldn't be allowed, right? Master, is what they're doing against the rules?"

……

Many fans in the live stream were asking, "Wouldn't it be a windfall if this could be transferred?"

When Xiao Lin saw someone in the live stream offer 100 million yuan for his chance to win a lucky bag, he was tempted, but he didn't dare to say much because he was in a difficult situation.

Chen Xuan naturally saw the content of the live stream chat and immediately shook his head, "Scalpers are not allowed in my live stream."

As expected, Chen Xuan's words caused some opportunistic nouveau riche to sigh.

Before Chen Xuan could ask a question, Xiao Lin on the screen pulled a strange object out of his pocket in front of hundreds of thousands of fans in the live stream.

The object appeared to be a pebble, small and oval-shaped, with fine, uneven textures on its surface. At first glance, it looked no different from an ordinary pebble.

"Master, could you please tell me what this is?"

Xiaolin seemed to still be a little worried about Chen Xuan, so she kept him in suspense for the time being.

Chen Xuan examined the stone in Xiao Lin's hand carefully and immediately asked in surprise, "Where did you get this?"

Instead of answering, Xiao Lin asked, "Master, someone offered 200 million to buy this thing. I'm afraid of losing a lot of money, so I came to ask you for advice."

However, before Chen Xuan could give an answer, knowledgeable people in the live stream made bids directly.

Wow, Haidong! [Holy crap, holy crap... this can't be real, right?]

Old Hai is a collector; [Damn, I can't believe I'm still seeing a spirit! Brother, I'll offer 300 million to buy it. If you agree, I'll come over to your place right now, and we'll exchange money for goods!]

Good job, Hai Dong; [Collecting Lao Hai, that's not fair of you. Trying to buy this for less than a thousand pieces? That's outrageous!]

Collect Lao Hai's post; [Teacher Hai Dong, cutting off someone's livelihood is equivalent to killing their entire family, what do you mean?]

As the tone of the two people's comments changed, some fans who love antiques clicked on the profile picture of "Hao Huo Hai Dong" to enter the homepage.

This is incredible.

It turns out to be Mr. Haidong, who does live-streaming appraisals of antiques on Douyin.

Immediately, Haidong's fans flooded the live stream with comments.

[Teacher Haidong, what's the deal with this stone? Is it worth a thousand W?]

[This is outrageous! Even a rough sapphire of this size from the Moxi Sha natural gemstone collection would cost more than ten million, right?]

[I just chuckled. It's all hype, so boring. I think the Taoist priest's words are more convincing.]

[Yes, are those two putting on a show? I bet they're shills. They see a lot of rich people in the Taoist priest's livestream and want to stage a scene to scam some suckers.]

Clearly, Haidong's online reputation for appreciating antiques is not high, and only a small group of people are familiar with antique appreciation.

Seeing that many people in the live stream were doubting him made Hai Dong feel that his professionalism was being questioned.

Good job, Haidong! [Holy crap, I'm a blogger with millions of followers, I wouldn't stoop so low as to act out a script with a collector. To be honest, I've only ever heard my master mention this thing, I know roughly what it looks like and what its purpose is. At first, I thought my master was just telling me a story, but I never expected to see the real thing in the Taoist priest's livestream.]

Immediately, many people tagged Hai Dong Xiao Lin and asked what the stone in his hand was.

Seeing this situation, Hai Dong shifted the pressure. Although he could vaguely tell what it was, he dared not speculate on which type it was.

You have to understand that his words carry a certain authority; how could he dare to speak recklessly about something he wasn't sure about?

Good job, Haidong! [Haha, what are you guys thinking? Even if I knew, I couldn't say! This is the Taoist priest's live stream, not mine. I wouldn't dare ruin the Taoist priest's livelihood.]

Upon seeing this comment, many fans in the live stream sighed and then sent comments asking Chen Xuan.

At this moment, Chen Xuan's divination also ended.

He looked at Xiaolin, who was slacking off in the live stream, and asked, "Are you really planning to make a move?"

Xiao Lin hesitated upon hearing this, "At first I didn't plan to sell it, but I didn't expect it to be so valuable. You've seen my house, Daoist. It's in the Northwest. Do you know how harsh the environment is here? I'm already thirty-two and I don't have my own house yet. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll definitely be a bachelor for the rest of my life."

Chen Xuan was not surprised to learn of Xiao Lin's decision; it was only human nature.

"Master, can you tell me what this little stone is?"

Chen Xuan observed that although Xiao Lin, who was known for his honest and simple appearance, was actually quite cunning.

"If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be an inner core."

"Moreover, the carp that lost its inner core is still living a painful life."

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Lin and said, "This thing is indeed a windfall for you, and you can certainly sell it for wealth. But I must remind you that the carp will die sooner or later after losing its life essence inner core."

Chen Xuan's words were impartial, and he continued, "That carp is quite powerful and has never done anything evil. It has even saved children from drowning while swimming in the Xiangshui River in your mountain village many times. She is a spirit with merits. You have essentially killed her. While you have gained a large amount of wealth, you will also suffer a great deal of karmic entanglement."

When Chen Xuan publicly revealed that the pebble in Xiao Lin's hand was actually an inner core, and a carp inner core with auspicious attributes and meanings, many wealthy viewers in the live stream couldn't sit still.

"I like Dai Jinlian"; "Xiao Lin, I'll offer ten million for the little stone you have! If you want to sell it, I'll send someone to take it right away!"

[Founder of Shanghai Venture Capital]: "Little Stone? Are you kidding me, little brother upstairs? That's the inner core of a red fish that can change people's luck. I heard a top business tycoon in Shanghai mention it casually. He said that as long as you get your hands on it and have it blessed by a high-ranking Taoist or monk with a carved talisman array, it can bring you at least 60 years of good fortune."

"To be honest, there were quite a few people in the Taoist priest's live stream. The moment Xiao Lin took this thing out, some real business tycoons had already secretly entered. Xiao Lin, tell me the truth, have your private messages been flooded?"

[I like Dai Jinlian] "@Shanghai Venture Capital, is it really that exaggerated? Even the founder of Shanghai Venture Capital is talking about a top business tycoon, what level must that be?"

[Founder of Shanghai Venture Capital]: "Let me put it this way, there's something even more amazing than this. Li Jiacheng not only has a magical artifact made from a small dragon's inner core, but I also heard that he built a fox spirit manor in a secret place in Xianggang, where he goes to pray for blessings every week. What do you think all that is for?"

The so-called "not being on the same level" means that you will never know things beyond your understanding unless others tell you.

Seeing the two people's comments in the live stream, everyone felt their eyes were opened.

Then everyone started sending comments asking Xiaolin if her inbox was flooded with private messages.

Chen Xuan didn't say anything, just quietly watched Xiao Lin wait for the final decision. After all, how to choose is a matter of personal destiny, and he had already made the gains and losses very clear.

At this moment, although Xiao Lin was dressed in a disheveled manner, everyone with discerning eyes knew that as long as this person was willing to hand over that small stone, he would transform into a true billionaire.

Moreover, judging from what the venture capital founder just said, it seems that the competition among several big names will be fierce, and it's estimated that it won't be possible to determine the winner without spending tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

"Master, everyone in the live stream, the venture capitalist is right, I do have 99+ private messages in the background now."

Xiao Lin glanced at the list and clearly saw the offers from those big shots; one person had even offered 200 million to buy the inner core in his possession.

"Someone offered 200 million to buy it."

When Xiao Lin said this, everyone in the live stream except for a few real government officials stared wide-eyed.

Chen Xuan spoke up at this moment, looking at Xiao Lin and asking, "So, what is your final decision?"

"This will be the most important turning point in your life and even for generations to come. You need to think it through carefully."

Seeing all sorts of comments in the live stream, Xiao Lin looked at Chen Xuan and smiled wryly, "Daoist Master, I'm really torn about whether or not to sell this thing?"

Upon hearing Xiaolin's words, the fans in the live stream all asked what had happened.

Seeing that Chen Xuan remained silent, Xiao Lin decided to tell him the whole story, including the cause and course of events.

"Let me first tell you how I got this inner core. Then, everyone in the live stream, please put yourselves in my shoes and decide what to do."

Upon hearing this, countless fans in the live stream exclaimed, "We want to hear the story!"

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded slightly at Xiao Lin, "Alright, then tell me about the cause and effect between this inner core and you."
