Chapter 231 My Mother is a Fortune Teller 16
Lu Yingniang's peace charms, priced at a thousand yuan each, spread rapidly throughout XX County with explosive news coverage.
Countless people flocked to the scene, and even more people dug out old talismans they had bought from Granny Lu and took them out to sell at high prices.
Some people even obtained yellow paper themselves, imitated Lu Yingniang's handwriting, and sold counterfeit goods.
For a time, things became chaotic, with all sorts of people involved.
The news quickly reached Lu Yingniang's ears, and she immediately realized something was wrong.
They hastily announced that all old talismans would be recalled.
You can trade in your old talisman for a new one. In accordance with national policies, each old talisman will receive a subsidy based on the month of issue.
In addition, all the talismans she sells have special markings, reminding everyone not to buy them from secondhand dealers.
Beware of buying counterfeit goods.
This made the villagers somewhat dissatisfied, but after being reprimanded by Village Chief Lu, everyone accepted it.
After all, if anyone in the family has any trouble in the future, Lu Yingniang will still need to lend a hand.
They've made quite a bit of money these past few days, so they should be content.
This incident also alerted the police, who immediately sent people to investigate.
However, in such cases, it's a matter of mutual consent; the more the police tried to persuade them, the more they angered the worshippers who were queuing to buy talismans.
Point your finger at them and tell them to get lost!
We're happy to fall for it, so what's it to you?
Go stay wherever it's cool.
The police then questioned Lu Yingniang, who replied that her work was a painting or calligraphy piece, an artwork.
The price of an artwork is determined by the client.
After all, art is priceless!
The police looked at the crooked pattern on her talisman and said, "How does this have anything to do with art?"
Lu Yingniang said, "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
I didn't see the chairman of the calligraphy association; his handwriting looked like scribbles.
They dare to put them openly in the exhibition hall and even auction them off for high prices.
At least this was drawn by a human. If you really have the time and inclination, why don't you go and do something about that?
The police knew that Lu Yingniang was making excuses, but they couldn't stop the crowd from egging them on.
They said we were just here to buy art, so what? What law did we break?
The policeman was furious and gave Lu Yingniang a severe scolding before leaving.
The little girl, with her hair in a small bun, wearing newly bought plastic sandals, ate candy and curiously watched the people queuing outside.
So many people!
In the past few days, villagers from the surrounding area have also started setting up stalls outside to do business.
There were vendors selling mung bean tea, jianbing (Chinese crepes), and fans.
Business seems to be doing quite well.
She was a little worried, though, because if she left, the original owner of this body wouldn't have the ability to do so.
In the end, the family of three will still be unable to escape their fate.
"Auntie, do you have any cultivation manuals?"
The system auntie's lips curled up, revealing a smile she had been unable to suppress for a long time.
"Yes! An introductory cultivation manual for 8,000 yuan, and an intermediate cultivation manual for 10,000 yuan, all produced by the Underworld, no bargaining."
"It's so expensive! Auntie, can you make it cheaper? I'm a third-party partner, after all!"
After some haggling, I finally got the two cultivation manuals at a 20% discount.
As night fell, Xiaoxiao woke her mother up to go to the toilet.
Lu Yingniang was half asleep when her daughter woke her up with a slap from her chubby hand.
She skillfully picked up her daughter, carried her to the yard, and helped her daughter relieve herself.
As I stood up, I suddenly saw a flash of red light in the southeast corner of the yard before disappearing.
She was surprised, thinking she had misread it, and looked down at her daughter, asking:
"Baby, did you see that just now?"
"I saw it, it's flashing on the ground."
The system aunt buried it; how could she not know?
Lu Yingniang immediately went into the room and woke up the man who was still fast asleep.
Finally, the couple carefully picked up their shovels and picks and began to dig.
Sure enough, they dug something out from one meter down.
An old-fashioned wooden box wrapped in oilcloth, with a brass lock hanging on it.
After Hu Ziqiang broke it open, there were two books wrapped in oilcloth inside.
The two opened the book and found two copies of the "Chaos Heavenly Record," one a beginner's guide and the other an intermediate-level manual.
Their eyes lit up, as if they had found a treasure.
Even buried a meter underground, it can emit light at night; how could it be an ordinary thing?
It is truly a miracle from the ancestors of the Lu family.
Inside the house, Lu Yingniang excitedly flipped through the pages while chattering away to Hu Ziqiang:
"This must have been passed down from my ancestors."
When I was a child, my grandfather told me that his great-great-grandfather had a son who was unfilial.
His aversion to women and his preference for alchemy and Taoist cultivation must have been a consequence of his ancestor's actions.
Unfortunately, Lu Yingniang practiced for half the night but still couldn't get the hang of it.
Xiaoxiao asked the system auntie, and the system replied:
“Your mother has too many selfish thoughts and is getting old. Her meridians are blocked, so she can't cultivate as well as a child who is as innocent as a blank sheet of paper.”
Xiao Xiao thought to himself, "Then I might as well start practicing too."
The next day, Xiao Xiao started practicing with her mother.
Lu Yingniang couldn't help but laugh when she saw the little girl imitating her, sitting cross-legged with her palms facing upwards.
He even taught her step by step with great interest, watching his daughter wobble unsteadily.
She laughed out loud several times, but soon she couldn't laugh anymore.
A thin mist had risen from the floor inside the house, surrounding the girl.
A flash of spiritual light appeared on Xiao Xiao's body, and she instantly entered the Qi Refining stage. Her aura then surged, and she broke through all the way to the late stage of Qi Refining.
Lu Yingniang stared in disbelief, unable to react for a long time.
Only after Xiaoxiao opened her eyes did she close her mouth, swallow hard, and ask in surprise:
"Honey! How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?"
"No! I'm perfectly fine, Mom."
With just a little effort, Xiao Xiao's entire body sprang up, three meters off the ground, almost hitting the roof beam.
Startled, Lu Yingniang hurriedly stood up and caught her daughter in a flurry of activity.
Xiao Xiao was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter.
so fun!
If I had known, she would have started cultivating long ago.
Lu Yingniang was overjoyed and quickly picked up the manual to check it. Then she hugged her daughter and kissed her repeatedly.
"My goodness! You're amazing! You've reached the late stage of Qi Refining."
She started teaching her mother, but unfortunately, Lu Yingniang never received any divine inspiration.
Xiao Xiao remembered what the system aunt had said about her mother's veins being blocked, and she suddenly remembered that she had a red fruit.
If it can cure cancer, this meridian blockage is nothing.
After exchanging for a red berry, she ate two bites herself, and while her father wasn't looking, she crushed the rest and threw it into the rice porridge.
That evening, the couple took a sip of rice porridge and found it exceptionally sweet. A warm current immediately rose from their lower abdomen and spread throughout their limbs.
My whole body felt warm and cozy, like I was soaking in a hot spring; it was incredibly comfortable.
While cultivating at night, Lu Yingniang attained enlightenment overnight, entering the mid-stage of Qi Refining.
She made a hand seal and chanted an incantation, then flicked her wrist, and a talisman exploded in mid-air.
Haha, I've succeeded! I've finally mastered it.
The next day, as dusk approached, Lu Yingniang saw off the last guest.
As she stretched and strolled in the yard, a woman who seemed dazed came to her house.
Lu Yingniang looked at Zhang Yumei in front of her and saw that her face was sallow and her eyes showed fatigue and anxiety.
Zhang Yumei immediately asked Lu Yingniang to tell her fortune and find someone.
Her daughter, Su Yan, went out to play with her classmates during summer vacation and went missing when she returned.
She called the police, but they couldn't find the body and therefore couldn't file a case.
"Please, fortune teller, is my daughter still alive?"
Zhang Yumei was at her wit's end; her daughter had been missing for seven or eight days.
The whole family searched all the places she frequented, but there was no trace of her.
The police also conducted a visit and investigation, and found that there was no conflict between him and his classmates.
The scene of the fight was not found, nor were any bodies discovered.
Ultimately, it could only be treated as a missing person case.
Lu Yingniang paused slightly upon hearing this; she hadn't actually considered this before.
She didn't intend to use ambiguous statements to fool people as she had done before.
She wanted to test her skills.
But I need to look it up in the book first, and it's obviously inappropriate to do that in front of the guests right now.
"Do you have any of your daughter's personal belongings or other frequently used items?"
I need this as a starting point to perform the calculations.
