After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 48 Your mom is calling you home for dinner.

"Ma'am, do you think the underworld is your home? You think you can just walk away from the ghost realm whenever you want?"

Bai Lu was speechless: "The Ghost Path is the path for ghosts; you souls without cultivation cannot traverse it!"

"Huh?" Bai Xiao pouted. "That's a real shame!"

The egret chuckled and shook its head.

If mortals could walk the ghost realm, wouldn't the ghost realm be in chaos?

"However, if you really want to leave, I'll extract your soul?"

After all, I should try to fulfill my best friend's wish.

"You—you're so far away from the plains!"

Bai Xiao hugged herself tightly, shaking her head so hard it almost fell off, looking at Bai Lu with a humble and weak expression: "I don't want to leave, not at all! After I die, I can walk every day! By the way, can you come see me when I die?"

Bai Lu was truly exasperated by Bai Xiao's divergent thinking: "You should focus on living your own life first!"

"alright."

Bai Xiao's eyes sparkled; she really was lucky!
The little green plum became a master—no, a fairy!
My little green plum has become a fairy, who can understand this feeling!

Bai Xiao felt that she had reached the pinnacle of her life!

"Tell me quickly, what happened? Didn't you say it was just a dead snake spirit? How could it be so powerful? How could a monster come back to life after it died? How could it cultivate? Where are the people?"

Bai Xiao was extremely curious.

Egret: "That's a long story! In short, there's a thousand-year-old female ghost in this ancient building. The two of them are in cahoots and have hit it off. They want to kill all of you in order to improve themselves."

Bai Xiao clicked her tongue and said, "Shameless! Pah!"

Improve yourself?

Doesn't someone else's life matter?

Bai Lu explained to Bai Xiao: "When people die, they become ghosts. Ghosts also have different levels, such as fierce ghosts and ghost generals. If a cultivator can still cultivate after death, he will become a ghost cultivator. Naturally, a monster can also become one after death."

“This ancient building has been uninhabited for a long time. A ghost and a snake have been eyeing you for a long time, but they heard you talking and knew that there were still some of you who hadn’t arrived yet, so they didn’t attack you at the beginning.”

Bai Xiao: "We're all here today, so they want to wipe us all out!"

"Hmm—but the situation here is a bit complicated. The matter of this vengeful ghost and this python spirit is unusual. Don't ask too many questions, just focus on filming your movie."

“Okay!” Bai Xiao replied.

After the two finished their private conversation, Lin Saisai seized the opportunity and rushed forward: "Master! I'm Lin Saisai. Thank you so much for saving us this time! May I add you on WeChat?"

Adding each other on WeChat is obviously for easy contact in the future!

She still has to act in movies in the future. What if there are more supernatural events?
Bai Lu felt that these celebrities were high-income earners, which would help her sell agricultural products in the future, so she readily added them on WeChat.

The male protagonist, Chang Xin, also came up and scanned the QR code. Then, as if a switch had been flipped, everyone present added Bai Lu on WeChat, including Bai Xiao.

Their thinking was simple: Bai Xiao was the master's friend, and if something happened and the master was unwilling to help, Bai Xiao could put in a good word for him.

Bai Xiao is completely overwhelmed by this victory.

She received the same treatment as the lead actress in this production team. The author and screenwriter even added a lot of scenes for her, relentlessly adding more scenes!

But that's a story for another time. Right now, the talisman paper from the egret has been sold at a high price!
It was Director Wang, who witnessed the whole process, who started by asking, "Master, are the talismans you use... for sale?"

Bai Lu's eyes lit up slightly: "You can't use this talisman, but would you like a peace talisman? It can ward off evil and disaster."

"want!"

Director Wang immediately said.

Bai Lu nodded, mentally calculating the cost of drawing a peace talisman. Only the cinnabar was a bit expensive, costing about eight yuan. She secretly set a high price that was both auspicious and extremely profitable: "Then... eight hundred..." eighty-eight!

"Cough-cough-"

Master Qingxu suddenly coughed lightly, his lips moved slightly but no sound came out, but Bailu, who was not far from him, clearly heard him say: "Fellow Daoist Bailu, the wholesale price of the amulet blessed by Sanqing Temple is 18888, and the retail price is 20000."

Egret: "..."

She always felt that she was too petty and out of place in the modern world of cultivation!

What kind of thing costs 18888 or 20000?
No way, do you think money is so easy to make in your Taoist temple?
Don't you feel guilty about quoting that price?
Master Qingxu seemed to understand Bailu's gaze, and then transmitted his voice, "The talisman is merely a carrier; its efficacy is what matters!"

In other words, a good luck charm must truly ensure safety!

Bai Lu's expression turned serious, and she changed her words to Director Wang: "Twenty thousand a ticket! Even if you crash your car while driving at 200 km/h on the highway, it will save your life!"

Director Wang: "!!!"

He pulled out his phone: "Give me twenty!"

Looking at the 400,000 yuan that had arrived in her account, Bai Lu wore a deathly smile—there are so many rich people in this world!!!

However, the next second, she saw the even richer Lu Lin, a handsome singer and dancer who was the second male lead, politely ask, "Can I have two hundred bills?"

Before Bai Lu could even speak, Bai Xiao couldn't suppress the smile on her lips. If she weren't so powerless, she would have loved to say on Bai Lu's behalf: "Sure! No way!"

Four million!

I can't afford to cultivate so many acres of land!
Bai Xiao's heart was screaming like a groundhog!
Once she calmed down, she realized that Lu Lin was an idol who was usually very low-key. How could he spend four million at once? Could he be a rich second-generation heir who came out to pursue his dream in the entertainment industry?

Others also looked at Lu Lin one after another, but many of them didn't find it surprising. In their minds, the entertainment industry was a place where you could get rich quick, and making money there was like picking up money off the ground. Four million was nothing to them!

Lin Saisai and Chang Xin could easily produce these!

Indeed, Lindsay also wanted a hundred!

If you can survive a car accident while driving at 200 mph, what's the difference between that and having an extra life?!

Cats have nine lives, but she has a hundred!

Go all out!
Bailu received the transfers one after another, ranging from two to two hundred. There were about two hundred people involved, and roughly three thousand in total!
Egret: "..."

Do you consider cabbage to be your life-saving talisman?

Can it be drawn so easily?

Spiritual power and mental power are both indispensable!

More than three thousand talismans, you could draw them all and still not finish!
She had to intervene: "Two tickets per person! Pre-order, shipping in seven days!"

"Two? That's a bit too few..."

Someone muttered something unpleasantly.

Bai Lu didn't mind: "No more." Drawing hundreds of talismans is tiring enough!
Although Director Wang and others didn't have a lot of tickets, they didn't try to persuade the egrets to increase their numbers. Instead, they honestly signed up to buy two tickets.

Bailu returned the money she received to the original payment method. Of course, she didn't do it one by one; with a thought, all the refunds arrived at the same time.

"Master Taoist...do you sell talismans?"

Suddenly someone asked about Master Qingxu. Some people with quick minds naturally set their sights on Master Qingxu. This master seemed to be familiar with the master. Capable people like to associate with other capable people. The talismans drawn by this master must be quite good too!
Life!

Who wouldn't want one more rule?!

However, Master Qingxu refused outright.

How could we Taoist priests steal other people's business?
Those who had harbored such intentions all returned empty-handed. They secretly observed the egret's expression, as if worried that the egret might be angry because of their actions.

Bai Lu was naturally not angry about these things. She said to Director Wang, "We still have some things to take care of. You take them out first, and we'll postpone today's filming!"

"Ok, no problem!"

As the only person who watched the live broadcast, Director Wang was extremely obedient to Bai Lu and immediately led his people out.

The day off was arranged for tomorrow. Some people went straight home, while others waited outside the ancient building, chattering and asking Bai Xiao about the egret.

Bai Xiao is so tight-lipped. She's been a tight-lipped person since she was little, and after being in the entertainment industry for the past two years, she knows even better what she should and shouldn't say!

After going around in circles, apart from the name "White Egret," they hadn't managed to gather any useful information.

Inside the ancient building, Bailu and Daoist Qingxu carefully studied the formation in the basement. Finally, in the basement on the next floor, they found a bead the size of an egg. The bead was dull and unremarkable.

Master Qingxu stroked his beard: "Is this what the snake spirit is guarding? How come there's not a trace of spiritual energy?"

Bai Lu didn't know either, and couldn't tell anything just by looking at the surface. In the end, Bai Lu put the bead away and repaired the long-neglected formation, restoring it to its proper function and eliminating its sacrificial function. As for the snake, it was taken back to the Sanqing Temple by Daoist Qingxu for disposal.

"Now that this matter is settled, I shall take my leave."

Taoist Qingxu said.

Egret: "Okay."

Like Bai Lu, Master Qingxu also walks the path of the underworld.

When they taught him formations at the Sanqing Temple last time, they told him a lot about the current state of the Xuanmen sect, one of which was that they had a partnership with the Underworld and could use the Ghost Path to travel between the mortal and immortal realms.

Watching Master Qingxu's figure disappear into the dark Ghost Path, Bailu thought about telling Bai Xiao that she was also going back. She wondered if her uncle and the others had seen her disappearance, and whether Bai Chen had handled the situation properly.

However, before she could even open the door to the ancient building, her phone rang.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

It was Bai Chen who called her.

As soon as the call connected, Bai Chen's hushed voice came through: "Big sister! Where have you been?! Your mom's calling you home for dinner!"

Bailu said, "Your sister Xiaoxiao had some things to take care of. I just finished and I'll be back in a bit!"

"Huh?" Bai Chen was taken aback. "You went all the way to the capital? That's so far! You're already here? Don't tell me you flew there?"

Bai Lu chuckled: "I'll explain it to you in detail when we get back. You can do it later too!"

Bai Chen said, "Can we not say anything now? Next time, can we please not just disappear like that? Or at least give me a heads-up before you disappear, you scared me to death, you know!"

"This happened so suddenly, I didn't mean to! Did no one see me disappear?"

"No, it's just that my uncle asked a couple more questions, and wow, the person was talking to you just fine, and then he turned around and he was gone!"

"Ha ha ha ha--"

The egret found the scene amusing: "Alright, I'll be back in a bit."

To everyone's surprise, Bai Chen said, "Forget it, why don't you stay with Xiaoxiao tonight? They're going to shake you off, so it must be no small matter. She must be terrified. I've told Mom and the others that you have something to do and won't be coming back."

Bai Lu thought about it and realized that Bai Xiao was still a young girl, no matter how capable she was. It was normal for her to be scared after experiencing such a dangerous situation today.

But since Bai Chen had said so, she wasn't in a hurry to go back.

Upon opening the door, Bai Lu saw that there were still quite a few people in the courtyard, especially Bai Xiao, who was talking animatedly. Bai Lu raised an eyebrow.

Was Bai Xiao terrified?
I didn't notice that.

She stepped out of the ancient building and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"

At this moment, Director Wang immediately stepped forward: "Master, thanks to you today, we are safe and sound. To express our gratitude, I would like to invite you to a meal. Would you do me the honor?"

Bai Lu initially wanted to refuse, but seeing Bai Xiao being "the center of attention," she nodded and said, "Then thank you very much for your hospitality, Director Wang!"

"No, no, no, Master, you're too kind. It's my great honor that you agreed. Please—"

Director Wang brought Bai Lu, Bai Xiao, and the male and female leads into his van, where he personally drove them.

The group arrived at a high-end restaurant, where Director Wang specially booked a private room and led the way for Bailu.

Director Wang must be a regular at this restaurant. Seeing how much he values ​​someone, many waiters cast admiring glances at Bai Lu and her group.

Although Bai Lu wasn't dressed as the old farmer she initially appeared in, she had changed into Bai Xiao's clothes before arriving—a simple dress.

Since she was just going out to eat, her outfit was indeed inappropriate. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble and avoid a forced confrontation, she could only have a simple meal.

"Lulu?"

A tall woman walked towards them and exclaimed in surprise when she saw the egret.

Bai Lu glanced at her, paused slightly, and then immediately quickened her pace with a blank expression.

For a moment, the woman thought she was seeing things, but then she realized it was impossible, so she quickly walked a few steps to catch up: "Egret? Egret!"

Bai Lu squeezed her eyes shut. Seeing that she couldn't hide it, she pretended that she had just heard it, turned around, and showed just the right amount of surprise on her face: "Cousin Fei Fei, it's you!"

Qin Fei retorted, "Come on, you clearly saw me just now!"

"Oh dear, it's because you've become even more beautiful, I didn't recognize you!"

The egret secretly thought to itself, "This is bad."

I didn't consult a fortune teller before going out today. The capital city is so big, how could I possibly run into her cousin!

Qin Fei is the younger sister of her cousin who used to lend money to her family. She has also helped her family a lot. She is an actress, and her status is slightly higher than Bai Xiao's, but only slightly.

"Stop flattering me. Why didn't you tell me you were coming to the capital? Didn't your mother say... Director Wang?"

Qin Fei was so surprised when she first saw Bai Lu that she didn't even notice the people around her. Seeing Bai Lu with Director Wang and Lin Saisai's group, she was utterly astonished.

Could it be that my cousin also wants to pursue a career in the entertainment industry?
Looking at her pretty face, she's not a bad candidate!
