I can calculate everything

Chapter 9 I Want All These Things

After careful consideration.

Xu Huan decided to play word games and demonstrate the art of language.

"My inheritance is not about cultivation, but about the art of divination, like fortune-telling. In other words, I can now calculate and deduce some things." Xu Huan said slowly.

He didn't mention the Bagua Immortal Mirror, but what he said about fortune-telling was indeed true.

After all, saying only half of the sentence is an elliptical sentence.

Strictly speaking, every word is true, and it can't be considered as lying to Lin Youwei.

"Fortune-telling? Isn't that all a scam?" Lin Youwei murmured, somewhat unbelieving.

But these words were said by Xu Huan, so Lin Youwei naturally believed them 100%.

Lin Youwei rolled her beautiful eyes, pondered for a moment, then relaxed her brows and said happily, "Doesn't that mean that Brother Xu Huan will become a lousy fortune teller in the future?"

Hearing this, Xu Huan's face turned dark.

"Is there anyone who teases people like you?"

"Lululu~ It's Brother Xu Huan's fault for hiding it from me, causing me to cry in vain."

Facing Xu Huan's slightly unhappy words, Lin Youwei gently sucked her tongue, rolled her eyes slightly, and made a face.

Hearing the word "sister" in the words, which only comes with the feeling of being wronged, Xu Huan supported his forehead with his left hand and said with a little helplessness: "I only found out today after completing the inheritance."

Hearing this, Lin Youwei took a few more sips of the sugar water. Her watery eyes rolled around as she said with a hint of cunning, "Hehe~ Since Brother Xu Huan is so good at fortune-telling, why don't you tell me about Youwei? Tell me the reason for my frailty, the reason that so many doctors can't figure out."

Xu Huan had already thought about this problem before he went out today.

But it is obvious that he has to pretend in front of this girl so that it will be easier to act in the future.

With his mind racing, Xu Huan chuckled, then straightened his body, raised his left hand, and placed it on the left side of his body, at shoulder level.

Under Lin Youwei's curious gaze, Xu Huan closed his eyes tightly and pinched his left hand repeatedly, pinching his middle finger with his thumb, then his index finger, and then his little finger...

After a moment, Xu Huan pretended to let out a long breath.

"How about it? Xu Banxian, have you finally figured out the reason?" Lin Youwei said with blinking eyes.

"Haha~" Xu Huan pretended to be profound and smiled, then slowly opened his eyes and said, "My dear Sister Lin, you are not sick at all! It's just that your water spirit root is too excellent. There is no negative impact at all. And as long as you improve your cultivation, you will be fine."

Across the table, Lin Youwei paused when she heard Xu Huan say for the first time that she was his Lin Daiyu. She didn't know what she was thinking about, and her already fair and rosy face was quietly given a barely perceptible blush.

Then, she heard Xu Huan say that he was not sick and it was because of his water spiritual roots. The cloud of sorrow that had been lurking in a corner of Lin Youwei's heart also disappeared with Xu Huan's words.

"That's really great! No more wasting money on bitter medicine!"

Compared to the doctors' words, Lin Youwei obviously believed Xu Huan's words more. If he said he was not sick, then he was definitely not sick.

After all, my brother Xu Huan can tell the truth...

"Haha~ You believe everything I say, right? If I sell you out someday, you might even take the initiative to help me count the money." Xu Huan teased as he looked at the cheerful Lin Youwei across the table.

"Counting money?" Lin Youwei's eyes turned again and she smiled, "Since Brother Xu Huan is good at fortune-telling, let's set up a stall and tell people's fortunes. I'll count the money!"

As for the fact that Xu Huan never asked his father for money, Lin Youwei knew that he had his own persistence, and his father also said that according to the ancient saying "raise sons poorly and daughters well", and that was how they had always lived in the past.

Now Xu Huan can make money with his own ability, and even earn money from those Qi Refiners. Lin Youwei finds it very interesting just by thinking about it.

Besides, counting money is really fun!
She often poured out the coins from the storage gourd in her boudoir and counted them for fun.

"Help me count the money? We can talk about it later. Now hurry up and finish the last bit of tofu pudding, then go shopping."

Looking at the increasingly bright spring light outside the window, Xu Huan calculated the time. It was almost three quarters past noon, so he urged immediately.

"I've never seen Brother Xu Huan urging others. Tell me, did you predict something good and rush to grab it?" When Lin Youwei heard Xu Huan urging her to eat faster for the first time, an idea flashed in her mind. She thought of those fortune-tellers who often cheated people on the streets, and how they often said that whatever they predicted would be good, and whatever they predicted would be good.

Lin Youwei suddenly felt that Xu Huan was rushing to Taobao to pick up a bargain.

Looking at Lin Youwei with a look that said, "I see through you," Xu Huan frowned slightly, sighed deeply, and said, "You are so smart, no wonder you don't have many friends."

“Slurp~Slurp~”

Lin Youwei ignored her ladylike image and swallowed all the sweet and sour tofu pudding in the bowl in two or three mouthfuls like a gust of wind.

"Don't try to change the subject, just tell me."

Looking at Lin Youwei's extremely excited expression, Xu Huan curled the corners of his mouth, slowly finished his portion of tofu pudding, and then slowly uttered five words.

"I do not know either."

It is another elliptical sentence, omitting: what exactly is the good thing.

I only know that it is a good thing that can make one become an immortal, but I really don’t know what exactly it is.

"Don't know? Then hurry up and leave. If you're late, it will be gone."

Lin Youwei gracefully took the bamboo napkin from the table and wiped her pink lips. Then she stood up immediately, pulled Xu Huan up with a slightly anxious look, and hurried downstairs.

Xu Huan let Lin Youwei, who was even more anxious than himself, pull him away.

After all, it was only a quarter to noon, and there was only a cup of tea left.

……

The stall three hundred feet to the east that the Bagua Immortal Mirror mentioned.

It's not far from the Pure Love Spring Water Shop. Turn left when you go out and it's ten feet behind.

Xu Huan stood under the peach tree, looking down at the empty stall in front of him with no one there.

"Fairy mirror, fairy mirror, are you sure this is the right place?" Xu Huan called out in his mind with some doubt.

Before the fairy mirror could reply, Xu Huan saw a middle-aged man coming under the tree.

He was wearing grey clothes and had grey hair, with a big “rat” character printed on his chest, a mustache, a rat-like face, and shifty eyes.

Xu Huan and Lin Youwei recognized him as the Rat Boss, who had alien blood.

Boss Rat reached out and patted the withered yellow storage gourd hanging around his waist, and a large sack instantly appeared in front of him.

Then, one, two, three, four, five, six small tripods covered with green rust, and more than ten stones of different sizes were poured out.

Seeing this, Lin Youwei took the lead in speaking to Xu Huan, opened her pink lips slightly, and said skillfully: "Boss Rat, I want all these things. Name a price."

I saw that they were old customers, Xu Huan and Lin Youwei.

So Boss Rat narrowed his small eyes slightly, raised his left hand, gently stroked his beard twice, and greeted with a smile.

"Miss Lin, I'm a regular customer! Ten gold coins in total. I just dug this out after traveling a long way across mountains and rivers and risking my life digging it out in a cave. I hope you don't think the price is too high."

Lin Youwei didn't bargain. She just thought about it, waved her sleeves, and put all the small tripods and stones into the storage gourd.

Then he waved his hand again and took out ten gold coins from the storage gourd and placed them in front of Boss Rat.

Boss Rat chuckled and with a wave of his hand, he put all the ten gold coins into his storage gourd.

"Every time I do business with the young lady, it's so refreshing! It's so refreshing!"

Not far away, a young man in black wanted to come closer to take a look, but when he saw that everything had been bought by Lin Youwei, he had to give up the idea and turned to look at other stalls.
