Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now! Chapter 1322 - 392: [Reverse Fortune Telling]

Chen Yan had already taken out a pack of tissues, pulled out a sheet, and wrapped the copper mirror with it, then stood up and left.

The middle-aged boss finally reacted: "Hey! Young man, not going to check out anything else? I’ve got some good stuff here!"

Chen Yan waved with a smile, then pulled the still dumbfounded Gu Qingyi, turned around, and walked away.

After walking a few dozen meters and turning a corner, Gu Qingyi grabbed Chen Yan, looked at him with a strange expression, then reached into his pocket and took out the copper mirror wrapped in tissue.

Could this thing be peculiar, or is Chen Yan’s Qi Observation Skill better than mine and he saw what a treasure it is?

"Wait, let me see this thing, let’s see what’s going on!"

Gu Qingyi couldn’t wait to tear off the tissue, holding the copper mirror, looking it over.

Chen Yan calmly said beside her: "Don’t bother looking, this thing is just garbage, worthless scrap metal. The rust on it was soaked out with chemical agents — hmph, being soaked with chemical agents is actually good compared to before. In those days, those unscrupulous merchants would just toss it in a manure pit to rust."

Hearing the last part, Gu Qingyi suddenly changed color and threw the copper mirror to the ground as if it were a hot potato.

Chen Yan walked over with a smile, picked it up, took a few more steps, and casually tossed it into the roadside trash bin.

"What, are you seriously ill or something?

Knowing this thing is garbage, you still spent twenty-eight hundred to buy it? Are you just giving money to a scammer?"

Gu Qingyi frowned, asking again: "Didn’t you use Qi Observation Skill to look at this thing just now?"

"Hmm, I didn’t look at it, I was staring at the boss the whole time."

Staring at the boss?

Gu Qingyi was even more surprised.

That boss, a skinny middle-aged man, what’s so interesting?

Not like he was some charming boss lady, why stare at him?

Chen Yan chuckled, took Gu Qingyi a few steps back to the corner they just passed, and they stood by the roadside. Chen Yan pointed to the middle-aged boss who had the stall far away.

"Take a closer look at him, use your Qi Observation Skill to check his luck."

Gu Qingyi steadied herself, looked over with concentration, and after a few glances at that deceitful boss, she couldn’t help but let out a soft "hmm?"

"Did you notice anything?"

"That guy, he’s having a stroke of good luck recently. His fate indicates that he should be getting some unexpected wealth soon."

Chen Yan laughed: "Isn’t that right."

Pausing, he slowly said: "I was browsing back and forth among the stalls earlier, and heard this boss chatting with someone nearby about buying lottery tickets or something. Seems like he’s a veteran lottery player.

I checked his luck and noticed he actually had a hint of unexpected wealth. He’s probably going to get lucky soon, likely win a lottery or something. Judging by the magnitude, it’s not much, probably win about ten or twenty thousand."

Gu Qingyi frowned: "Then, what does that have to do with you?"

Chen Yan blinked: "Heaven-Licking Dao."

After a pause, seeing Gu Qingyi’s confused expression, Chen Yan gathered his smile and slowly explained: "The fortune decreed by the Heavenly Dao, that’s karma!

When karma exists but hasn’t happened yet, if I comply with the karma set by the Heavenly Dao, making it happen!

Then, the Heavenly Dao’s merit must fall upon me!

Those who follow the Heavenly Dao will prosper, those who go against will perish!

So, by helping to follow the Heavenly Dao, this means conforming to the Heavenly Dao, assisting in executing the Dao!"

Gu Qingyi was dumbfounded!

Is there such a Heaven-Licking Dao method?

Chen Yan sighed: "I have no choice either, there’s no harm in trying. Let’s indulge a bit and see if this path works.

Accumulating a lot of merit, maybe the Heavenly Dao will spare me in some way."

·

For the next three days, Chen Yan didn’t go anywhere else; he settled down in this cultural street district.

He even set up his stall at the crossroads!!

Fortune-telling and palm reading!!

Spent two hundred yuan to have a shop make a banner and set it up with a stick, then put on a traditional Chinese garment.

Also used a Transformation Technique to age his appearance a bit, making him look about thirty or forty, then found an eyeglass shop, spent twenty yuan to buy a pair of very old-fashioned, cheap sunglasses to wear.

Bought a small folding stool and squatted down at the south entrance of the street.

Chen Yan has ventured through this area; around here, those who practice fortune-telling and face reading are mainly formal shops run by people like Luo Qing, selling things like Protective Talismans or consecrated items, while dedicating a separate room with a master to fortune-tell and interpret words.

These are the regulars, the storefront businesses.

While at the roadside intersections, there were some drifters too, well, considered lower-level Loose Cultivators, they just hover around the roadside, spot a passerby, think there’s a chance, then approach and offer their services.

Gradually forming a trend, a group of people occupied the south entrance, setting up their "stalls," waiting for people to seek readings.

Chen Yan tried to join the first day he went there but was driven out.

But Chen Yan wasn’t fazed; he directly showed his cards.

Young Lady Gu intervened, pulling a few stall owners to the side alley, shared some physical and martial moral lessons with them, and Chen Yan smoothly set up his stall there.

Gu Qingyi even asked Chen Yan: "You could have beaten them all with just a finger, why did you need me to beat them?"

Chen Yan squinted his eyes and chuckled: "Their fate doesn’t show any disasters recently, they’re not supposed to be beaten. If I hit them, it would go against the Heavenly Dao’s karma. You handling it, that sin rests on you, not me."
