Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor
Chapter 46 Refusal to Take In
Li Mu had encountered similar con artists who pretended to be pitiful before.
Once, he met a woman holding a child. She pitifully said that the child hadn't eaten for several days and didn't have the money to go home.
Li Mu offered to buy them some food, but they said they only wanted money, so he gave them 20 yuan.
But after Li Mu came out of the supermarket, he saw the woman holding the child asking another person for money, for the exact same reason he had given.
Li Mu realized that he had been deceived.
He felt that these scammers who relied on playing the victim to gain sympathy and swindle money were extremely hateful.
These people not only swindle money, but also corrupt social morals, making people afraid to sympathize with others and causing their hearts to grow increasingly cold.
"I don't want money, I just want to find a place that provides food and lodging. Sir, you have a kind face and seem like a good person. Please, could you take me in?"
Shi Tang shook her head vigorously and looked at Li Mu with pleading eyes, asking the question.
Seeing that the country girl didn't want money, Li Mu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He hadn't expected that she really wasn't a scammer.
But just to be on the safe side, he silently circulated his primordial spiritual energy, intending to cast a divination.
According to tradition, one should not cast divination too often or without a reason, as this can easily disrupt the secrets of heaven and incur divine retribution.
Generally speaking, it is only suitable to cast a divination when one sees something unusual or encounters a problem. Encountering a problem is easy to understand. Seeing something unusual means seeing something unusual.
Either someone is seeking divination, or someone else is seeking divination because they've encountered a problem.
Ok?
The divination failed?
Li Mu found it strange that he couldn't use divination to calculate the girl's background and information.
This was the third time he had encountered someone who couldn't be divined, following Mingyue and the little stray girl who was mauled by a vicious dog.
Mingyue is unable to perform divination because she is the primordial spirit host of the Heavenly Eccentric Saint Venerable.
The fact that the little homeless girl's soul could absorb his returning spiritual energy indicates that the other party was not an ordinary person either.
But why can't this country girl cast a divination?
She is clearly not a primordial spirit progenitor.
Otherwise, with Li Mu standing so close to her, the spiritual energy in his dantian should have already shown signs of movement.
Moreover, Li Mu didn't think he was that lucky to encounter two Yuan Soul Spirit Protons so quickly.
"Girl, it's not that I don't want to help you, but my family really doesn't need a nanny. Why don't you ask around?"
After hesitating for a moment, Li Mu decided to refuse, since he didn't know the other party's background.
Although he does feel lonely and isolated living alone now, hiring a nanny or something wouldn't be a bad thing.
But he still dared not take in someone of unknown origin.
After Li Mu finished speaking, he turned and left.
Shi Tang did not follow, feeling that if she continued to beg, it might arouse the other party's suspicion.
Ma Tao reminded her not to be too proactive or eager, to be as natural as possible, and to retreat if the first request was unsuccessful, and to think of another way.
After watching Li Mu walk away, she took out her phone again and called Ma Tao.
"Let's retreat for now. We'll think of another way," Ma Tao said on the other end of the phone.
"Oh well."
Shi Tang hung up the phone and left the park.
As soon as Li Mu entered the community gate, he was immediately spotted by a thug who was lying in wait nearby.
This scoundrel is naturally one of Bald Qiang's men.
Crackling sounds!
He quietly followed Li Mu to the entrance of the apartment building, when he was suddenly startled by a burst of firecrackers.
It turned out that Fang Zhengwen was setting off firecrackers.
Li Mu was also startled by him.
The sound of firecrackers also attracted many neighbors to watch.
"Old Li! You're truly a miracle doctor! I never imagined you could actually cure my illness! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say you're my second parent!"
With tears in his eyes, Fang Zhengwen grasped Li Mu's hand and said excitedly.
"Hey! Old Fang, what are you doing? Setting off firecrackers? Aren't you making too much noise?"
Li Mu said with a wry smile.
"I'm going to make a big fuss! I want the neighbors to see that Li Mu isn't some jinx or a jinx! He's our patients' savior!"
Fang Zhengwen spoke loudly, then took out a brocade banner from a bag behind him and handed it to Li Mu.
The red banner bore eight large golden characters: "A divine physician of our time, saving lives and helping the world."
Although Li Mu was somewhat amused and exasperated by Fang Zhengwen's grand gesture, he was also deeply moved and warmed.
He knew that Lao Fang not only wanted to thank him, but also wanted to clear his name of being a jinx.
"Old Fang, you actually made a banner! Hahaha..."
Li Mu accepted the banner with a hearty laugh, but was deeply moved.
"Everyone, Old Li cured my serious heart disease! He gave me a set of acupuncture needles yesterday, and when I went to the hospital for a checkup, my coronary arteries were completely healed! Even the doctors were incredulous! Old Li isn't some jinx; he's a highly skilled and miraculous doctor! From now on, everyone must stop smearing Old Li!"
Fang Zhengwen excitedly told his neighbors.
When the neighbors realized that Teacher Fang didn't seem to be lying, they all looked surprised.
Even the thugs secretly following Li Mu were stunned by this scene and blinked in disbelief.
However, the large number of people gathered there actually provided him with excellent cover.
"Old Fang, you're saying Old Li cured your heart disease with just a set of acupuncture needles? How is that possible?!"
"Yes, heart disease. That's no ordinary illness. How could it possibly be cured with acupuncture?"
"Absolutely! If that were the case, all the hospitals would go out of business!"
……
Soon, people began to question Fang Zhengwen's statement.
Fang Zhengwen was furious at everyone's doubts, and he wanted to go home and show everyone the diagnosis and test results.
"I can vouch for the truth of what Teacher Fang said! My daughter Cai'er's congenital heart disease was also cured by Uncle Li!"
At that moment, a woman stepped out from the crowd and spoke loudly.
This person was none other than Yang Yuxiu, who lived across the hall from Li Mu.
"Besides, Uncle Li never charges us for medical treatment! He's a very kind person, so how did he become the jinx and nemesis you're talking about? It's true that Uncle Li's family has suffered one tragedy after another over the years, but shouldn't Uncle Li be the one who is most saddened and pitiful? As his neighbors, instead of comforting and caring for him, we're calling him a jinx, excluding and isolating him. Isn't that too cold and inhumane?"
Yang Yuxiu continued speaking loudly to her neighbors.
Her words deeply moved Li Mu, and his eyes even reddened.
Sure enough, the neighbors didn't say anything more and dispersed.
Although Fang Zhengwen and Yang Yuxiu's actions may not completely dispel their misunderstanding of Li Mu, especially those superstitious old ladies.
After all, prejudices in people's hearts are like a mountain, and it's very difficult to move them.
But at least, what happened today will make everyone look at Li Mu in a new light.
After everyone dispersed, Li Mu followed Yang Yuxiu and Lao Fang upstairs, while the hoodlum secretly followed and memorized Li Mu's floor and apartment number.
"Brother Quan, I've found that old man and pinpointed his exact address. He hasn't spotted me."
After leaving the neighborhood, the thug immediately called Bald Qiang's confidant.
"Okay! You must remember his building number, unit number, and apartment number."
"Don't worry, Brother Quan, I've got it all figured out. When do we make our move?" the thug asked.
"Let me ask Brother Qiang for permission first. You come back first."
……
Ding Dong!
Just as Li Mu finished lunch and was about to take a nap, the doorbell rang suddenly.
He wondered if Yang Yuxiu from across the hall or Old Fang downstairs was looking for him.
But when he opened the door and saw the person standing there, he was so shocked that he froze on the spot.
