A leisurely life: I have a scenic area

As soon as Zhao Mingxin arrived at Qingfeng Mountain, he immediately began to stroll around and familiarize himself with the environment.

He saw Little Butt Mountain and thought it looked good, so he started climbing up from the east side of the mountain.

Climbing the steps to the top of Leifeng Pagoda, I happened to meet Huijue.

The two faced each other, then bowed to one another before parting ways.

Zhao Mingxin found it interesting when Qi Yue mentioned Huijue.

This was the first time he had ever seen a monk practice his spiritual cultivation through carving.

However, everyone has different beliefs and different ways of doing things, and he respects all those who are devout.

When Huijue first saw Zhao Mingxin, he was also quite curious.

"Is the monk going to do some carving? That's quite unusual, but a good idea."

Zhao Mingxin took the initiative to greet him.

He traveled far and wide, and saw many people and things.

What I like most is communicating with these pure people; it feels comfortable and brings me closer to my true self.

"I'm going to do some carving to complete today's practice."

"How should I address you, Taoist priest?"

Huijue inquired.

“My name is Zhao Mingxin, and my Taoist name is also ‘Mingxin’. I used to practice under my master in a small Taoist temple on Qinglong Mountain. Later, my master passed away, and I traveled all over the world. Now I have settled down on Qingfeng Mountain.”

"Master Mingxin."

"Master Huijue".

The two greeted each other, and Zhao Ming thought to himself that he had come to visit Leifeng Pagoda. The pagoda was magnificent and seemed to truly suppress the White Snake Lady.

Huijue still needed to carve, so the two parted ways.

Zhao Mingxin is a carefree person. He also recites scriptures, but not in a strenuous way. He can practice swordsmanship, but only when he feels like it.

He thought Huijue was good, and that he might be able to chat with him more often in the future.

Since both of them were alone, they didn't need to care about the opinions of those sects.

He toured Leifeng Pagoda for a while and then left.

Qi Yue was quite concerned when he heard that Zhao Mingxin had gone to Leifeng Pagoda.

After all, the two have different beliefs, so it's best to avoid any friction.

However, as expected, Zhao Mingxin was still all smiles after coming down.

He tidied himself up, washed his Taoist robe, and looked even more capable now.

In the afternoon, he planned to practice with his longsword.

When they arrived outside the Taiji Hall, they found it was full of tourists.

How do you practice this?
Besides, there's a Tai Chi enthusiast group practicing Tai Chi here, so he can't very well take over the square's space.

What happened?

Just then, Qi Yue came over, so Zhao Mingxin went over to talk to him:
"Boss, there are too many people here. I don't feel comfortable being watched while I practice my sword."

"Who has such thick skin?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yue's expression stiffened slightly.

After all, Qi Yue had previously practiced Tai Chi during a live stream.

At that time, there were many onlookers.

Zhao Mingxin was unaware of these matters.

"It's okay, just do what you feel like. If you don't want to train, then don't train."

Qi Yue nodded.

Zhao Mingxin felt he had to do something for the scenic area, and he had a plan.

"Boss, putting everything else aside, isn't it just about attracting visitors to the scenic area? That's easy enough."

"I'll prepare something in a bit and arrange a performance outside the Taiji Hall."

Zhao Mingxin added.

"Okay!"

Qi Yue naturally agreed.

At this moment, Zhao Rou came over to Qi Yue with a bright smile, saying that she had rehearsed a new dance and wanted to see it.

Qi Yue was naturally happy to receive such a good offer.

For him, Zhao Rou was truly a good person.

Good looks and a good personality—that's rare.

Nowadays, top beauties are never short of admirers, so they are all arrogant and haughty.

Of course, they also have the resources.

A good personality is rare.

After Qi Yue left, Zhao Mingxin immediately went to attend to her own business.

He moved tables and chairs from inside the shop and placed them at the entrance of the Taiji Hall.

Then they placed a chair in front of the table and hung a banner on it.

Just sitting there, he looked extraordinary.

He had just sat down when a young couple came over.

"Hello, are there any activities here? Can I earn silver coins?"

The girl asked her.

"I don't do any promotions here, I do fortune telling."

"We'll count 50 people per day, first come, first served."

"If you're interested, you can give it a try."

Zhao Mingxin said with a profound and inscrutable expression.

Upon hearing this, the couple looked at each other in bewilderment.

But since she was already there, the girl sat down.

"What kind of fortune telling? Face reading? Marriage? Wealth?"

Zhao Mingxin looked at her and asked, "Let's talk about my fortune. What do you think of my fortune?"

The girl's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked with great interest.

The boy standing to the side looked rather helpless.

These days, predicting one's fortune is far more important than predicting one's love life.

"Okay, here's a calligraphy brush. Write a character on the paper, anything will do."

Zhao Mingxin handed her a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Although the girl had never practiced calligraphy before, she still dipped her brush in ink and wrote the character "钱" (money) on the paper.

"The forceful strokes indicate that unexpected wealth has recently arrived."

"A round face indicates the potential for accumulating wealth."

"If you cherish your money and hold onto it, then your wealth will flow in continuously and you will have good fortune."

"If you overspend, your wealth may become like a trickle, or even dry up."

"Therefore, we must be careful to safeguard our wealth."

Zhao Mingxin looked at her and explained.

Hearing Zhao Mingxin's words, the girl was extremely surprised, "My God, you even know that."

"I recently won a 12 yuan prize in a scratch-off lottery. We were so excited about it for a few days before we finally went on vacation!"

"You're amazing!"

The boy next to him secretly gave a thumbs up.

That's a great way to put it.

It can also encourage girls to spend less money.

Indeed, a master is a master.

"Truly a master, amazing!"

The boy thanked him.

Zhao Mingxin smiled slightly and said nothing more.

Soon, tourists noticed the situation and came over, forming a queue.

Zhao Mingxin is quite skilled at fortune telling.

He does know a lot.

Just then, another girl arrived. She was quite pretty, wearing a crop top and jeans, and could be considered a pretty girl.

Girls need to have their marriage prospects calculated.

"There are many potential suitors, but the road to love is not always smooth."

"You must be facing a decision in your heart, so your current relationship is in a state of flux."

"To be happy, you need to understand your partner and make a commitment as early as possible."

Zhao Mingxin calculated it for her.

Upon hearing this, the girl nodded quickly.
"The master's prediction was really accurate. I have a lot of people pursuing me, but I don't really like any of them."

"Recently, I've been torn between a programmer and the son of a county leader."

"The programmer graduated from a top-tier university (985), is a good person, and earns a decent income, but he's quite frugal and spends very little. He's saving money to work hard and buy a house."

“The son of a county leader has a family that can afford a motorhome and a government job for him in the city, but he spends all his salary on drinking every week.”

"I really have a hard time making this decision."

"I've thought about it for a long time."

Zhao Mingxin had seen too many people; he knew what this girl was thinking the moment she blinked.

If you ask about marriage, it's definitely a case of someone having two relationships at the same time.

"I can only help you analyze, not make the decision for you."

"It's best to make a decision as soon as possible; dragging it out won't be good for your marriage."

"That's all the analysis can do. Please leave now."

Zhao Mingxin said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the girl hesitated, then turned and left to ponder her choice.

Believe it or not, once people started lining up here, it immediately became a hit.

The key is that the calculations are extremely accurate.

As word spread, Zhao Mingxin's reputation really did begin to grow.

There is a fortune teller in the Taiji Hall who can understand Yin and Yang, know destiny, and predict fortune.

That's what people say.

As a result, more and more people came to him.

But Zhao Mingxin was also straightforward, only counting a maximum of 50 people per day, and not counting any more than that.

That's also carefree.

When Qi Yue finished dealing with Zhao Rou, he was a little confused when he passed by the Taiji Hall.

Why is there a queue at the Taiji Hall?

There aren't any performances here.

When I went over to take a look, I found that Zhao Mingxin was telling fortunes.

He was even more surprised.

Wait, there's this skill too?
This was an unexpected surprise.

A large crowd had gathered around the table, all listening to Zhao Mingxin's analysis.

Qi Yue was quite interested, so he stood to the side and listened.

To be honest, what Zhao Mingxin said was quite reasonable; you could tell he had some real knowledge.

The key is that he always gets to the point, leaving those being told fortunes in awe.

Everywhere you look, you see expressions of someone who's "met a master."

"Talent!"

Qi Yue clicked his tongue in amazement and couldn't help but admire it. (End of Chapter)
