Lu Zhizhi thought for a while and shook his head.

"Sister, you know that our profession has committed 'five evils and three shortcomings', and you don't know where the retribution will be."

"I heard one of Master's Taoist friends say before that Master also had a wife and children before."

"Later, for some reason, the child died, and his wife hated him and divorced him."

"After that, Master never got married again and was always single."

"And those who work in our profession will probably die young."

“The more secrets are leaked, the easier it is to suffer backlash.”

Lu Zhizhi raised his hand and shook the Xuanyin Bell.

"So, I only meet people who are destined to meet me, and I won't say much."

"If they believe in me, I will have to bear less karma."

"Then I use the money they pay to do good deeds, accumulate good fortune, and try to live longer."

Lu Yufu's voice was choked up.

"If you know it, why don't you just be an ordinary person?"

"Get married, have children, and live an ordinary life."

Lu Zhizhi shook his head.

"Once you enter the Taoist gate, which is as deep as the sea, and start to practice, you will see all kinds of suffering in the world, and you will not be able to be alone. There will be some cause and effect on you."

"As long as I don't get involved in marriage and leave no assets, there should be no problem if I live to the end of my life."

Lu Yufu asked doubtfully.

"Then don't you feel lonely?"

Lu Zhizhi thought for a while.

"Before I went back to Lu's house, I didn't really know what loneliness was."

"Now that I have my parents and brothers and sisters by my side, I don't feel lonely."

Lu Yufu felt that this topic was a bit heavy, and the timer happened to sound.

She wanted to end this topic.

"I know, let's go out. Steaming for too long is not good for your health."

Lu Zhizhi got up and took off his facial mask to take a shower.

After drying my hair and returning to the room, the raindrops outside the window rustled the glass like stones.

The strong wind bent the willow trees by the lake.

Lu Zhizhi counted with his fingers.

Something will happen tomorrow.

Sure enough, just after dawn, Gu Yanzhou's phone call came.

Lu Zhizhi was still confused when he pressed the connect button.

"Fifth Master Gu, what's the matter?"

Gu Yanzhou's voice was calm.

"Wu Rui is in the hospital and may be dying. Her wife asked to see us."

Lu Zhizhi never thought that Wu Rui would be responsible for the major event calculated yesterday.

Gu Yanzhou offered to pick her up, but she refused and asked the driver to take her to the hospital.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the hospital, he saw Gu Yanzhou waiting for him at the entrance.

Gu Yanzhou was sitting in a wheelchair, and Chongjiu stood behind him to push the wheelchair for him.

Lu Zhizhi walked forward in two trots, raised his hand to press his heart, and used his spiritual power to explore his meridians.

"The Guiyuan Pill is not in your body properly. Although you may not be as healthy as a normal person, you should have no problem walking."

Gu Yanzhou blinked unnaturally.

"I...I'm just a little tired lately and don't want to move around."

Lu Zhizhi nodded blankly, and then walked forward as if nothing had happened.

"Then you should take a good rest."

"I read what Lawyer Han gave me that day. The list of properties under your name was as thick as a book. It was really scary."

"You have dozens of money and you won't be able to spend it all in your lifetime, so why are you working so hard?"

Gu Yanzhou's expression returned to his natural state.

"I know that what I am doing now is no longer for myself. It is somewhat involuntary."

"My uncle needs a strong backing. If he is not careful, he will be stepped on."

"If it fails, it won't be as simple as bankrupting the family. No matter how serious it is, I can't say anything about it."

"Also, the Gu family's industry is huge. How many people have to rely on the Gu family to support their families."

"If I don't run it well, many people will lose their jobs, which will have an impact on the entire society."

Lu Zhizhi never thought of this.

She seemed to know something.

"No wonder you have such heavy karma. It turns out that you have many people's hopes on you!"

Gu Yanzhou nodded.

"I was born into a wealthy family and have enjoyed all the blessings I should have. There is nothing I can't give up."

"I don't even care about clowns like Xu Ping and my second uncle."

"If they are worthy of a big job, I will not monopolize the Gu family."

"But it's not me they want to destroy, but the entire Gu family, so I have to be on guard."

The two of them were chatting, and while they were talking, they arrived at the place where the nurse was guiding them.

This time, the person in the corridor was not the haggard Wu Rui, but a woman.

Seeing them coming, the woman wiped her tears and gathered her emotions.

"Mr. Gu, Miss Lu, hello."

"I am Wu Rui's wife, and my name is Song Jia."

Lu Zhizhi pointed inside the ICU.

"What happened to Wu Rui?"

Lu Zhizhi couldn't see sadness in Song Jia's eyes, but only anger.

"It was very windy last night. Wu Rui was hit by a billboard blown down by the strong wind and was admitted to the ICU."

Before Lu Zhizhi could say anything, Song Jia spoke first.

"Miss Lu, I know it's presumptuous to ask to meet with you today, but I still do it."

Song Jia bowed deeply to Lu Zhizhi, then raised her head with firm eyes.

"I have made an appointment with Lawyer Han to discuss the house acquisition."

"Let me express my position first. No matter what, I will sell this house."

"I invited you here today just to ask if my daughter's matter has anything to do with Wu Rui!"

Lu Zhizhi subconsciously looked at Gu Yanzhou beside him, and it happened that Gu Yanzhou was also looking at her.

The two people blinked at each other, indicating that they were not sure what was going on.

Song Jia took two steps forward and looked at her daughter inside through the glass of the ICU.

"I was transferred by my employer to work in other places. I have been working in other places for the past two years and have very little time to go home."

"Last week, I had a routine video chat with my daughter, but Wu Rui used the excuse that my daughter went to bed early, and every time he just took pictures of her sleeping with her eyes closed."

"Later I felt something was wrong, so I called my daughter on Sunday and asked to meet. Wu Rui then said that my daughter was hospitalized."

"But she said her daughter had acute appendicitis and had just been operated on. She didn't want me to worry, so she didn't say anything."

"I originally asked for leave and planned to come back for a visit, but last night, the doctor informed me that Wu Rui was rescuing her and the child was in the ICU, so I rushed back overnight."

Song Jia's eyes were full of anger.

"Wu Rui has a very good idea. He never listens to me and refuses to tell me the truth."

"I had a vague feeling that he was doing something bad, but I couldn't get a word in."

"When I got his cell phone, I looked through the WeChat chat history and found that my daughter had a problem for a long time, and it seemed to be related to him!"

"Miss Lu, was it because of Wu Rui that my daughter's accident happened?"

Lu Zhizhi didn't know how to answer.

She didn't want to get involved in other people's housework, and she didn't want to be involved in this kind of karma.

But seeing Song Jia's helplessness as a mother, she couldn't help but feel soft.

"Yes."

"Wu Rui and Sun Shengcai colluded to create a formation in Anxin Garden."

"As the person holding the battle, he provided convenience for Sun Shengcai."

"I broke this formation and it backfired on Wu Rui, so something happened to her and your daughter."

"I originally thought something would happen to you too, but you are working out of town and have not been affected by the foul smell, so you are fine now."
