Hard to be a master

Guan Jingxuan led Shen Ziliu across the street, went straight to the fortune-telling booth of the man in Tsing Yi and sat down on the only small square stool, while Shen Ziliu stood obediently and quietly behind him.

There was business coming, but the man in Tsing Yi didn't seem to care much about it, he just put down the hand that was supporting his head, and straightened his lazy sitting posture a little.Lightly glanced at Guan Jingxuan, then at Shen Ziliu, the man in Tsing Yi raised his eyebrows, and said, "Fortune-telling? Asking divination?"

Guan Jingxuan didn't mind his negligence, and said with the same smile: "Sir, why don't you guess?"

The man in Tsing Yi rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily, "Can you guess me or not?"

Guan Jingxuan smiled and said, "How is your business today, sir?"

The man in Tsing Yi said expressionlessly: "It's okay."

Shen Ziliu was a little speechless as he listened to him. They had stood beside him for a long time and they hadn't seen anyone interested in his stall. How could it be "good"?

Guan Jingxuan didn't seem to doubt his words, but suddenly said: "I wonder if the last hexagram of today's sir is still there?"

Shen Ziliu couldn't help showing a little surprise and bewilderment when he heard the words, and the man in Tsing Yi's always lazy expression finally perked up a little after hearing these words.

He looked again at the gentle and deceitful guest in front of him, and said, "What's your surname?"

Guan Jingxuan said: "Must your surname be Guan."

The man in Tsing Yi raised his eyebrows again, and after lingering on Guan Jingxuan's eyebrows for a while, he said frankly: "Decades ago, the fourth-generation descendants of the Guan family, a big family in Yangzhou, were forced to leave home and go to the fairyland when they were young. It’s the only remaining blood of the Guan family, but their fate with the Guan family has been exhausted. Um... now I’m just passing by in Kunlun—”

Guan Jingxuan coughed twice, and said with a little embarrassment: "Retreat, meditate."

The man in Tsing Yi glanced at him, and said emphatically, "——goof off."

Guan Jingxuan helplessly supported his forehead, why can't he save some face in front of his apprentice...

Shen Ziliu, who was standing behind him, raised the corner of his lips quickly.

The man in Tsing Yi seemed to be pleased by Guan Jingxuan's troubled appearance, and his tone became lighter, saying: "There is no chance of forming a golden core in fate—tsk, I can't tell that you are still a golden core monk—but because there are noble people help..."

Guan Jingxuan coughed again and again and forcibly interrupted the man in Tsing Yi, and said: "You are really capable, fellow daoist!"

The man in Tsing Yi gave Guan Jingxuan a meaningful look, and did not continue as he wished, but instead asked, "How did you find out?"

Although he didn't ask very clearly, Guan Jingxuan immediately understood what he meant, and said: "Yesterday, I happened to meet that Master Liu Xianshi, and just now I found that the willow tree on the opposite side had some master's spiritual power on it. There are also traces of the puppet technique."

The man in Tsing Yi looked at Guan Jingxuan with a more energetic gaze. He nodded and said: "It can be seen that he is just a puppet, and he can also detect my spiritual power. It seems that your real name is not entirely incompatible. Reality."

Guan Jingxuan said modestly: "It's just a coincidence. Haven't asked Taoist friend Gao's surname yet?"

The man in Tsing Yi leaned back on the chair carelessly, and said: "You and I only have this one-sided relationship, why do you need to know, you just call me 'Liu Xianshi' like everyone else. It's rare for someone to see my identity. Immortal Master is in a good mood today, so I will do a fortune-telling for you for free. Tell me, what do you want?"

Just as Guan Jingxuan was about to speak, "Master Liu Immortal" said first again: "Okay, you don't need to talk, I know what you are going to do."

Guan Jingxuan: "..."

"Master Liu Xianshi" turned his head and glanced at Shen Ziliu, and then spread out a piece of slightly yellowed oil paper on the stall in front of him, on which were densely packed with strange runes like spider webs, and ten days of dryness were written chaotically and disorderly among the runes. and the twelve earthly branches. "Master Liu Xianshi" took out three ancient coins of unknown dynasties from his sleeve, and threw them on the oiled paper seemingly casually. The moment the ancient coins landed on the paper, they stood up steadily as if they had been infused with life, and chased each other stand up.After chasing nine laps on the oiled paper, the three ancient coins suddenly stopped chasing, and turned to spinning slowly on the paper and moving in different directions on their own.After a while, the three ancient coins each settled down at a certain point, and their rotation became faster and faster, until "Master Liu Xianshi" snapped his fingers, and the ancient coins suddenly stopped, and then fell to one side at the same time as if they had lost their lives. down.

"Master Liu Xian" looked at the position of the three ancient coins on the oil paper, and then put away the ancient coins one by one, and said to Guan Jingxuan: "The person you are looking for is not far away, and he also has what you want in his hand. From here, go west for two hundred miles and then go north for fifty miles, and you will find a piece of white sand by the river, and there will be someone there who will tell you how to go."

Guan Jingxuan wrote it down carefully, and then said to the man in Tsing Yi: "Thank you, Master Immortal, for your guidance, I don't know about gold..."

"Master Liu Xianshi" shook his head, and said: "It's free if you say it. By the way, you'd better leave quickly, otherwise the guide will leave."

Guan Jingxuan immediately stood up from the stool upon hearing the words, asked Shen Ziliu to thank "Master Liu Immortal", and immediately drew out the Floating Cloud Fan, and the master and apprentice stepped on it together.

Before leaving, Guan Jingxuan turned to "Xianshi Liu" who had regained his laziness and said: "It is difficult for ordinary people to understand the true meaning of the immortal master, why should the immortal master bother with them?"

"Master Liu Xian" snorted softly and said, "I am willing."

Guan Jingxuan shook her head and laughed, thanked him again and stopped staying. With a thought, the Floating Cloud Fan carried the master and apprentice straight into the sky.

After flying for a while, Shen Ziliu, who was sticking behind Guan Jingxuan like a brown candy, leaned into his ear and asked, "Master, aren't we afraid of being seen by ordinary people if we go directly from the city to ride the wind?"

Guan Jingxuan turned his head and said, "Xiaoliu, haven't you noticed that 'Liu Xianshi' has set up barriers around us since the fortune-telling?"

Shen Ziliu was stunned for a moment, and said: "I am ashamed, but I didn't realize it at all. But how did the master know that he is Master Liu Xian? We clearly didn't come to Qianmo Lane yesterday."

Guan Jingxuan smiled slyly, and said, "Actually, Senior Brother Sun told me."

Shen Ziliu said: "Isn't Uncle Sun not in Kunlun recently?"

Guan Jingxuan said: "Senior brother gave me a sound transmission ring before, so that I can contact him at any time. Senior brother has many disciples and grandchildren, and there are many times when I need to buy spiritual weapons. Naturally, I know how to find that grocer. The one just now 'Liu Xianshi' is actually not named Liu, or it should be said that this 'Liu' is not the other 'Liu'. In fact, he called himself 'Liu Yi Gua', and was misrepresented by ordinary people, so everyone thought his surname was Liu."
