Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!

Lu Qiu turned around, his gaze slowly rising, his eyes involuntarily trembling. The person speaking to him was the person in the photograph...

He was indeed the same type as Confucius.

He had a refined appearance and a tall, robust build, looking almost two meters tall.

Judging solely by appearance, one might assume the other person is capable of reasoning with you, but judging solely by physique, one might assume the other person only knows how to use force.

Taken together, it would be like this: I understand some principles, but I also have some knowledge of martial arts.

This was indeed a standard feature of Confucius's travels throughout the states.

"Sir?" The eldest brother asked the person in front of him again.

"I..." Lu Qiu paused slightly, his mind racing. He had no idea that his senior brother would come and talk to him.

However, after following Xia Xia for a long time, he had gotten used to it, and in a flash, he sighed softly: "It seems like I've been stood up."

"Standed up? You?" The eldest brother's tone was surprised for a moment, his expression full of disbelief. "You get stood up too?"

Lu Qiu kept smiling.

He suddenly remembered that Master Li and Master Yu always said that he was incredibly noble whenever they saw him. So his senior brother must also have the ability to see his destiny at a glance.

"If you don't mind, would you like to come to my shop for a while?" After saying that, the senior brother pointed to a small shop in the distance that sells peace charms and fortune telling. "To be honest, you are the most valuable person I have ever met, but at the same time, I also think your fate is very, very strange."

After saying that, the eldest brother quickly muttered to himself, "It's really strange. Ziwei is pressing down on him, his life is not long, but there is a glimmer of hope. He should be destined to survive, but now his face shows that he has already found a way out, but the power of life has not yet begun to be implemented. It's like he hasn't been shot yet, but he already has a healing master by his side... It's too strange."

The senior brother spoke quickly and in a low voice, but Lu Qiu had good hearing and was with Xia Wange, so he heard everything clearly.

"I don't have any money with me, so I'm afraid I can't afford to pay for your fortune telling." Lu Qiu used a feigned retreat to advance.

Thanks to this period of time, mobile payment was not yet widespread.

"It's free, just come in and sit down, let's chat." The eldest brother waved his hand magnanimously. "Besides, my shop isn't far from here. If the person you're waiting for comes, you can see them from my shop. I feel an instant connection with you, and I believe that the person you're waiting for will definitely come. I won't stand you up."

"Wouldn't this be too much trouble?" Lu Qiu asked reservedly, looking embarrassed.

"No trouble at all, my business is just so-so." The eldest brother waved his hand repeatedly. "I'm relatively free today, and I just happened to run into you. Let's have some tea together."

After being repeatedly invited by his senior brother, Lu Qiu finally entered his senior brother's shop. As soon as he entered, he sat down by the window, fully embodying the act of waiting for someone.

The senior brother brought him some snacks and then went about his own business.

Just then, Lu Qiu's phone rang. He glanced at it and saw it was a message from Xia Xia.

Xiaxia: [How's the battle going?]

Lu Qiu: [Entering the Main Hall]

Xiaxia: [Awesome!]

Lu Qiu: [Oh, not at all. What's the next step?]

Xiaxia: [Just follow along.]

Lu Qiu: [Okay]

"Sir, may I ask your surname?"

At this moment, the senior disciple brought over a pot of hot tea, sat down opposite Lu Qiu, glanced at him putting away his phone, and asked, "Have you contacted the person you're waiting for?"

"Yes." Lu Qiu nodded, "They definitely didn't stand us up. Master, you were right."

The eldest disciple waved his hand casually, "I haven't said anything yet..."

"But there's still a problem. She can't come right now, and I don't have any money on me..." Lu Qiu said with a troubled expression.

"It's alright, it's alright, I'll take care of your lunch," the senior brother quickly said. "I cook at the shop, it's just a matter of having one more person and one more pair of chopsticks, you can eat here for lunch."

"That's too much trouble," Lu Qiu said, feeling very embarrassed.

"It's nothing, it's nothing," the eldest brother said with a smile.

"My surname is Lu," Lu Qiu introduced himself.

"Mr. Lu," the senior disciple poured Lu Qiu a cup of tea, "have you ever been exposed to metaphysics before?"

Lu Qiu smiled. "I am a staunch materialist."

once.

Before meeting Xiaxia, he was a staunch materialist.

"Ha." The senior brother laughed, "Metaphysics and science are inseparable. Scientific learning is also metaphysical learning. For example, I study face and palmistry a lot. I rely on the predecessors to summarize the fate of people with the same characteristics. It is also scientific big data analysis. I am actually a big data analyst. This matter is all about probability."

Lu Qiu: "..."

Indeed, they are of the same lineage.

"Take Mr. Lu for example. Judging from your face, you probably have loving parents, a harmonious family, and an older brother. You have a very good relationship with your brother, and he loves you very much. You probably had a hurdle when you were five years old. Although you got through it, everything went smoothly afterward. However... sigh."

The eldest brother sighed, his tone regretful, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Before Lu Qiu could ask, he said, "Of course, nothing I say is accurate, but based on your facial features and my big data analysis, you may start to have leg problems in two years, becoming unable to walk properly, without any warning signs. However! There is a chance for things to turn around."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qiu paused for a moment, then pursed his lips and didn't finish speaking.

"I was just saying, so please take it with a grain of salt. Big data can be subject to error..."

Just as the eldest brother was about to say something more, someone came to the shop, and he quickly got up to greet them.

Lu Qiu glanced at his senior brother's retreating figure and silently sent a message to Xia Wange.

Lu Qiu: [I feel like my underwear is about to be stripped off.]

Xia Wange: [After all, he's my senior brother. If he wants to discuss things more deeply, you can ask him to calculate when our eldest brother will get married.]

Lu Qiu: [Is it okay?]

Xia Wange: [Don't worry, it's all taken care of.]

Soon, the eldest brother returned. Before he could speak again, Lu Qiu said, "You said you're good at palm reading. May I ask you when my older brother will get married? I'll pay you. I'll give you the money when my friend arrives."

"It's nothing, just a small problem, no problem at all, it's free." The senior brother said very magnanimously, "Mr. Lu, please extend your left hand, let me take a look."

So Lu Qiu stretched out his left hand.

The eldest brother glanced at it casually for a while, then frowned slightly, staring intently at the palm lines of Lu Qiu's hand.

Seeing his senior brother's reaction, Lu Qiu felt more confident. "If you can't figure it out, how about we look at something simpler?"
