The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 226 What a coincidence! (2nd update)
"Yes, that person must be lying to me. How could Yunran be my child? My child should be enjoying a life of luxury in Kyoto."

Qu Ying refused to believe it, or rather, she was unwilling to believe it.

It is said that great kindness can turn into great enmity. In fact, guilt can also become great enmity. If Yunran is really her child, then what have she done all these years?

When guilt becomes unbearable, some people resort to self-deception, or even worse, to make their conscience at ease.

With a creak, the cellar lid was opened, and someone jumped down and dragged Qu Ying out.

"What are you trying to do? Let me go! I am the eldest wife of the Yun family! If you dare to do anything to me, the Yun family..."

Qu Ying was knocked unconscious by a blow, but she knew in her heart that the seemingly righteous Taoist priest was going to take her blood again.

Qu Ying, who was dragged out of the cellar, had clothes worth tens of thousands of yuan that were no longer recognizable, and there was even a faint stench emanating from her body.

"Master, the person has been brought over."

The middle-aged Taoist priest looked at Qu Ying, who was being dragged over, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes as he covered his nose.

"Draw blood, and remember, don't kill the person."

The young Taoist priest picked up a knife and cleanly slashed Qu Ying's arm. Her arm was already covered with numerous crisscrossing wounds, all traces of blood being drawn from her.

The bowl was quickly filled with blood, and the young Taoist casually picked up some medicinal powder from the side and sprinkled it on the wound. The bleeding stopped immediately.

Qu Ying, who was lying on the ground, had been knocked unconscious, but the pain in her arm still made her frown.

Perhaps because she had been given a lot of blood these past few days, her face had turned pale and lost its previous rosy hue.

"Master, the blood has been collected."

The middle-aged Taoist nodded, then took out a folded triangular talisman from his person and handed it to the young Taoist.

"Burn it to ashes and drink it~"

The young Taoist priest trembled violently, his hands shaking slightly. His senior brother's inexplicably charred corpse was still in the courtyard.

Being a substitute for your master might grant you access to more resources, but it truly means you could die.

"What, you don't want to?"

Hearing the dissatisfaction in his master's tone, the young Taoist quickly took the talisman. If he hadn't acted as his master's substitute, he would probably be dead by now.

Seeing that the young Taoist priest had accepted the talisman, the middle-aged Taoist priest was satisfied and casually gave the young Taoist priest a bank card.

“Take this money back to your parents. Although we are now people of the outside world, I am not a stingy person.”

The young Taoist priest's face turned a shade paler instantly, and he dared not show any more reluctance.

Obediently, in front of his master, he burned the substitute talisman to ashes and swallowed it with water.

The middle-aged Taoist was satisfied. He took the bowl containing Qu Ying's blood and quickly went into the house.

At this moment, Yunran sat on the bus, her fingers constantly making hand gestures and calculating, while she muttered incantations to herself.

This caused the people around her to instinctively move away from her position.

Some people even looked at her with pity, as if she were a sick and pitiful person.

Ginseng Fruit, ever the embarrassment freak, immediately resurfaced: [Host, haven't you figured it out yet? The people on this bus are practically treating you like you're crazy.]

"I already figured that out. I'm calculating other things now." This is unbearable. This system is like a mother hen, constantly worrying me!
Yunran then added, "I'm calculating lottery numbers. There's a lot to do, so I've only figured out the winning numbers for six draws."

[Does the host want to buy lottery tickets?]

Yun Ran resolutely refused: "I won't buy it. Lottery tickets only cost a few dollars. I'm very rich now. Besides, doing something like this to profit myself would disrupt the balance, and the heavens would punish me."

Ginseng fruit: ...

Haha, now the ginseng fruit truly understands what it means to have nothing better to do than to be full.

When the bus reached its final stop, only a few people remained on board. Yunran picked up her bag and got off.

Haicheng truly lives up to its reputation as one of the top cities in China in terms of GDP. Even though this is the suburbs, it is still bustling with traffic and a large population.

Yunran lifted her foot and slowly walked in a specific direction, expecting to arrive in about half an hour.

As for whether it would take up time or cause Qu Ying more suffering, that was none of her business. She had already shown her conscience by coming to save people.

As she walked, Yunran had already taken quite a few street food snacks into her hands, and her empty stomach was soon filled.

With less than 500 meters to go, Yunran suddenly stopped and looked in another direction.

The water dragon spirit, who was picking its toes in the courtyard, suddenly stiffened and mechanically turned its head to the back.

"No way, that vicious woman is here too!"

The door was pushed open, startling Long Ling so much that she shrank back. When she saw that it was A Liang who came in, she was overwhelmed with a strange sense of shame and indignation.

Ah Liang, the lean man, was carrying a box of fried noodles. He lowered his voice mysteriously and said, "I got a good price for it!"

Upon hearing that it had sold for a good price, Long Ling's eyes immediately lit up, her expression mirroring Yun Ran's greedy one.

Just because others can't find things in the sea doesn't mean Long Ling can't. With a wave of his hand, he got a huge pile of natural pearls and conch pearls, all of top quality.

He was truly fed up with being broke.

"Quick, let me see how much money there is."

At this moment, Long Ling perfectly demonstrated what it means to have money and guts; his earlier hesitation upon noticing Yun Ran's presence nearby vanished instantly.

The Ghost King cautiously poked his head out and looked in the direction Yun Ran was looking: [Master, so Dragon Spirit is here too! What a coincidence!]

The current female ghost queen, after working as a ghost dealer for a while, has become quite shrewd.

Even though she is now on Yunran's side, she will never leave any reason to offend Longling.

Yun Ran speechlessly reached out and shoved the Ghost King's head back in: "Stop popping your head out every now and then, look how scared you've made that black cat over there."

Ren Shenguo looked over, and good heavens, that black cat that looked like a stray cat was now acting like it was stressed, its fur standing on end, and it was cursing horribly in Yun Ran's direction.

Fortunately, it was far away, so Yunran didn't hear what it was cursing.

Yun Ran withdrew her gaze and continued towards the target courtyard. As for Long Ling, with her two restrictions in place, that guy couldn't cause any trouble.

After finishing the last piece of grilled squid, I carefully threw the skewer into the trash can.

Yun Ran then stepped forward and knocked on the door. In any case, it's always better to be polite first and then resort to force.
