Chapter 275
Even Ying Yuexuan did not believe this statement when she said it herself.
But she did remember this number.
She had seen it in the student contact book in the head teacher’s office.
It was Ying Zidian’s phone number, and she had written it down, but she had thrown it away.
However, her memory was not bad and she was still able to recall it.
Zhong Manhua froze for a moment, and only after a long time did she turn cold: “How could it be her phone number? This was given by Shao Ren Hospital, if this was her phone number, wouldn’t she be a divine doctor?”
I don’t know what the reason was, but she had been hearing this name more frequently recently.
Zhong Manhua was a little bored.
Ying Yuexuan thought about it and pursed her lips again, “Then maybe I’m mistaken.”
It was understandable that Ying Ziji studied well because she had worked hard and seriously, but to be a doctor?
This was really too ridiculous.
“Don’t mention her anymore.” Only then did Zhong Manhua dial the number down.
However, only after two rings, the phone was hung up.
Zhong Manhua was stunned again.
When she dialed it again, she couldn’t get through.
It had been hacked.
Ying Yuexuan sensed that Zhong Manhua’s face did not look right: “Mom, what’s wrong?”
“I suspect that the hospital has given the wrong number.” Zhong Manhua naturally wouldn’t say such a humiliating thing in front of her juniors, “I’ll ask again.”
With that, she dialed Shao Ren Hospital’s overcoming phone number again and told them the problem.
“This is the divine doctor’s phone number, you didn’t call the wrong number, as for not answering?” Customer service thought about what the dean had said at the time and smiled, his tone detached for a few moments, “Not answering proves that you don’t have a medical connection, the divine doctor won’t make a visit.”
Zhong Manhua laughed: “What medical karma? Isn’t a doctor just saving lives? How can you talk about karma? What superstition?”
“Sorry, this is the divine doctor’s request.” The customer service’s voice cooled down, “Since the divine doctor has already rejected you, I have to prepare to notify the next number.”
Without waiting for Zhong Manhua’s reaction, the phone hung up over there.
Zhong Manhua’s face sank bit by bit as she snorted, “If you don’t treat, then you don’t treat, is it hard to say that in the vast country of China, you still can’t find a divine doctor who can see the sick?”
She would befriend Madam Mu, also because she wanted to use this to get to the Meng family.
Zhong Manhua did not know about the affairs in the imperial capital, so she simply did not know that Madam Mu was not even qualified to go to see a direct member of the Meng family.
Zhong Manhua took a deep breath before she could barely calm her emotions down, “Xiao Xuan, study, I’ll go ask the Fu family side who cured Master Fu.”

Internet dating car.
Ying Zidian once again blacked out all the contact information of the Ying family before she got off the bus after Fifth Moon.
This was her new number.
If Zhong Manhua hadn’t called this time, she would have forgotten that there was still a Ying family.
“This is our original family mansion.” Fifth Moon pointed to the plaque above, “Our Fifth Family is not as old as the Mu Family, but it was there during the North and South Dynasties.”
“This mansion, which was given to the old ancestors by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, has been kept until now.”
Ying Zigui looked slightly stoned and whispered to herself, “It’s still the same.”
The last time she was on Earth, she had followed Fifth Shao Xin to the Fifth House.
She hadn’t been in China for very long, just five years.
At that time, it was already the Qing Dynasty.
For generations, the Fifth Family had originally served in the imperial palace.
The so-called Qintian Supervisor in ancient times was actually in the same category as the Astrology Department that has been opened at Norton University until now to play.
The astrological chart was read to predict good and bad fortune.
This ancestral home of the Fifth Family was so big that Ying followed Fifth Moon for twenty minutes before she arrived at the easternmost courtyard.
The Fifth Family also had a large villa in the city, and most people would live there.
The people who lived there were people who were completely devoid of trigonometry skills, all of whom had gone into business.
So although the ancestral house was spacious, very few people lived there.
Ying Zigui didn’t say anything else and pointed to the ground, “Sit down and close your eyes.”
Although Fifth Moon felt strange, she did as she was told.
Although she had big nerves, she was not so stupid as to listen to anyone.
But Ying Ziji gave her a very affectionate feeling, and she didn’t resent it in any way.
Fifth Moon didn’t know what this was about.
Just as she wasn’t sure why Ying Zidian had to come to the ancestral home and not the villa in the central district.
Ying Zidian sat opposite her and closed her eyes as well.
**
The other side.
West courtyard.
A middle-aged man is lying on a rocking chair in the middle of the courtyard, squinting his eyes and smoking an old-fashioned pipe.
A servant hurriedly came in from outside and walked up to the middle-aged man: “Second Master.”
Another whispered something in his ear.
The middle-aged man opened his eyes suddenly, “Really?”
“A thousand times true.” The servant replied, “Fifth Moon brought an outsider in, but nothing happened to that outsider.”
The fact that so few people lived in the Fifth Family’s ancestral mansion now was also because there were fewer and fewer people in the family who possessed the ability to do trigonometry.
Without the gift of trigonometry, one would become unwell after living in the mansion for a long time.
But it is different for outsiders, who cannot even enter without the Fifth Family’s bloodline.
Unless, of course, one also has the gift of trigonometry, whether it has been developed or not.
This was something that was still unclear to the Fifth Moon’s generation.
The middle-aged man slowly exhaled a layer of smoke rings and asked, “Where are they, the family head?”
“They went to the ancient medical world yesterday evening.” The servant replied respectfully, “The Fifth Wind and the others aren’t here either, there’s not much in the old mansion today, I don’t know why Fifth Moon has suddenly returned.”
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, “That’s good, wait a little longer, don’t rush now, tell the people below to close the gate first, don’t let anyone leave.”
**
Two hours later.
Only then did Ying Ziji open her eyes.
She slowly got up, clenched her fist against her lips and coughed violently.
After a few seconds, she lowered her hand, having fresh blood dripping down her fingertips.
There was also a brilliant red on her lips.
It looked shocking against the white, almost transparent skin.
Fifth Moon’s expression changed dramatically and she stepped forward to hug the girl, “Are you alright?”
“Fine.” Ying Zigui was faint, “Can’t die.”
Karma was already weak by Fifth Moon’s generation.
But she was still a bit reluctant to forcefully erase it now.
But if she didn’t erase it now, Fifth Moon would definitely be in danger within this month.
“I have medicine here.” Fifth Moon was busy rummaging through the box, “It’s from the ancient medical world, so you should take it quickly.”
“No need.” Ying Ziji coughed some more and took out a few pills he had made himself from his pocket and took them, “Do you feel anything has changed?”
Fifth Moon was stunned and really felt it seriously, she hesitated, “It seems that my body has become lighter and my head is not so dizzy.”
“I’ll sleep for a while, if I don’t wake up by eight o’clock, you call this number.” Ying handed her phone over, “Tell him where I am.”
She didn’t have the strength to even support her to walk out.
She had never been able to count her own things, nor did she do so all the time.
After all, people who played the game didn’t always put their skills to work.
Moreover, the closer one was to the person, the harder it would be to count.
Such as Wen Fengmian, Wen Listen Lan and Elder Zhong.
But if they encounter a life and death crisis, she will have a sense, and this sense can remind her to count.
But she herself could not.
She wasn’t sure if anything would happen to her in the Fifth Family.
But there was no way out, only in the ancestral home could she change Fifth Moon’s destiny for her.
Fifth Moon took it: “Okay da, okay da.”
She glanced down at the number’s mobile note.
It wasn’t a name, but an appellation.
Brother.
Fifth Moon didn’t think much of it, just a*sumed it was Ying Zigui’s family.
But she also saw that there was an emoji of a pig in front of the title.
Other than that, the rest of the contacts were missing.
Fifth Moon was curious: “Miss, what does this pig mean?”
Ying Ziji was already lying on the bed, she closed her eyes and her voice gradually weakened: “Someone who can hand her back over with confidence ……”
Fifth Moon scratched her head, somewhat not understanding this sentence.
She closed the bedroom door behind her.
Then sat down in the courtyard to keep watch.
This courtyard was where the four of their siblings lived.
Only today the other three were not there.
When Fifth Moon kept such a vigil, she did so for another three hours.
When she looked at the time, she saw that it was already half past seven in the evening, but Ying Zidian had not yet woken up.
She took the mobile phone given to her by Ying Zidian and thought about it, but decided to make the call now.
But she had only just clicked on the name “brother” when there was a knock on the courtyard door.
Fifth Moon immediately became alert: “Who is it?”
Outside the door, it was the voice of a middle-aged man.
“Your fourth uncle, Fifth Hui, needs to see you.”
“My brother and the others are not here today.” Fifth Moon had no intention of letting Fifth Hui in and did not open the door, “You’d better go back.”
She was going to call out to Fourth Uncle, but Fifth Hui and her were not in the same faction and did not have any dealings in normal times.
Who knew what Fifth Hui was looking for her at this time?
Fifth Moon didn’t care and dialled the number out.
But the door was kicked open at that moment.
Fifth Fai was spinning his Buddhist beads, with a few servants behind him, he didn’t care about Fifth Moon either, and raised his chin: “Go, bring the person in the bedroom out for me.”
Fifth Moon didn’t expect that Fifth Hui was coming for Ying Zigui, but she immediately made her move.
She blocked the bedroom door, “Fifth Hui, what do you want? I’m warning you, she’s not an ordinary person, how dare you move?”
“Just kidding.” Who knew that not only was Fifth Fai not surprised, but he smiled lightly, “Of course I know that she is not an ordinary person, how can she stop a disaster if she is ordinary?”
Chapter 276
If one did not have the gift of trigonometry, one would not even be able to enter the ancestral home of the Fifth Family.
And if one could have it, it would prove that one would not be an ordinary person.
Naturally, Fifth Hui was clear about this, otherwise he wouldn’t have made this trip.
He didn’t even bother to know who Ying Zidian was and what his name was.
All he knew was that Ying Zigui must have the gift of trigonometry and could stand in the way, and that was enough.
Fifth Moon’s expression changed again, “What did you say? Blocking disasters?”
“Fifth Moon, no wonder the family head would let you go out for an adventure.” Fifth Hui put his hands behind his back and shook his head, “How old are you? You’re 17 this year too, right? Still don’t know the truth about the five evils and three deficiencies?”
No matter who is in the field of trigonometry, there will be one of the five disadvantages and three shortcomings.
The five disadvantages are “widowhood”, “widowhood”, “loneliness”, “loneliness” and “disability”.
The three shortcomings are “lack of wealth”, “lack of power” and “lack of life”.
Most of the magicians in the ancient o-continent were poor or physically handicapped because of this reason.
Of course Fifth Moon would not be unaware of this.
Heaven’s mysteries were not to be pried into.
If you pry, you will be punished accordingly.
It sounds mysterious, but it is true that it exists in the underworld.
She had not yet formally embarked on the path of trigonometry, so there was no such thing as five evils and three defects.
Generally speaking, members of the Fifth Family are formally initiated into the Way at the age of 18.
When they enter the path, they have to choose one of the five evils and three defects.
However, her grandfather had always told her that their lineage was already short-lived, so if she chose the “lack of life”, she would not have to live.
So, she had to choose something else.
“What about Mo’er, she’ll be 18 this year.” I don’t want her to be trapped by the five evils and three shortcomings, so I need to find someone who also has the talent of fortune-telling to help protect her from disasters, do you understand?”
Fifth Mer, the biological daughter of Fifth Hui, was likewise a direct member of the Fifth Family.
Families like the Mu family and the Fifth Family, which had stretched down from the time of the ancient imperial dynasty, had too many family members.
Said to be siblings, some had never met each other.
Fifth Moon had heard of Fifth Mer, but had never met him.
For them as trigram tellers, the Five Maladies and Three Deficiencies was indeed a calamity.
It was a natural calamity.
“Her natural calamity and let others block it?” Fifth Moon all but laughed at this, her eyes cold, “Fifth Hui, you’re not sick in the head, are you?”
“There’s nothing to say to you.” Fifth Hui didn’t even put Fifth Moon in his eyes, he just instructed the people behind him, “Bring them out first.”
Those few servants nodded, “Yes, Second Master.”
Fifth Moon was still at the door of the bedroom, not moving, just looking at Fifth Hui coldly
The servants looked at each other and could not help but look at Fifth Hui.
No matter what, Fifth Moon was still a member of the Fifth Family’s direct line.
If they really made a move against Fifth Moon, it would be them who would be unlucky.
“Fifth Moon, I advise you to be more sensible.” Fifth Hui’s face slowly sank as he twirled his Buddhist beads and sneered, “The family head has gone to the Ancient Medical Realm, and your other three siblings are also absent.”
“A few of your other uncles and uncles, were asked to go out for a trigram forget it, today in this ancestral mansion, just you and I are here.”
“These few men of mine, have also practiced in the ancient martial world for a while, you, a young girl, don’t try to block it for nothing.”
This was a true statement.
Unlike ancient medicine and ancient martial arts, there was more than one family.
The Fifth Family was the only remaining family of Gua Arithmetic and Feng Shui left.
Those few major clans in the ancient martial world also had deals with the Fifth Family.
The Fifth Family is responsible for divination and fortune-telling, while the ancient martial arts families are responsible for protecting their safety.
Of course, the prerequisite is that they can do the calculations.
Fifth Moon had not yet entered the Dao and did not even have a name in the Ancient Martial Arts Family, so naturally she did not have any Ancient Martial Artists with her for protection.
And Fifth Hui, after Fifth Moon’s father had pa*sed away, was considered one of the few in his generation with the strongest trigonometry ability.
Fifth Moon was still blocking the door, she gritted her teeth and suddenly spoke, “Isn’t it just for Fifth Mo to block in? I’ll block, it’s okay, right?”
Fifth Hui’s eyes suddenly narrowed and he suddenly laughed, “Fifth Moon, who is that person of yours? Can you say something like that?”
Blocking a disaster is not just a joke.
If you blocked a disaster for someone else, then you would be hurt even more.
If Fifth Moon had blocked the disaster for Fifth Mo, then she would be tied to Fifth Mo in the future.
Fifth Mo would not suffer any more harm, and all the karma caused by prying into the heavens would be doubled for Fifth Moon to bear.
“Anyway, just say if it’s okay.” Fifth Moon didn’t answer, “I’m from the Fifth Family and still have a bloodline relationship with her, wouldn’t I be a better candidate?”
“A better candidate indeed.” Fifth Hui nodded and smiled again, “But I don’t dare to touch the family head’s granddaughter yet.”
Fifth Moon pursed her lips and bowed her head, “It’s not like I’m powerful, even if I enter the Dao in the future, I won’t be able to become any master, on Grandpa’s side, I can go and talk.”
Hearing this, Fifth Hui’s hand spun the Buddhist beads even faster, as if he was carefully deliberating something.
In this line of Fifth Moon, there were four siblings.
Fifth Moon was far less outstanding than Fifth Flower, and having one less was really not a problem.
Fifth Moon was indeed a better candidate than an outsider.
Fifth Hui nodded, “Good, then you-”
He did not finish his words.
The door creaked at that moment.
The girl had one hand on the door and a pair of legs that were long and straight.
Her face was still pale, and her lips were still tinged with a bit of red that had solidified.
It added to the flamboyant colour.
The girl’s voice was hoarse, obviously short of breath.
But her tone was unquestionable: “Fifth Moon, get out of the way.”
Fifth Hui looked up and narrowed his eyes, sizing the girl up carefully.
He looked emphatically at her doorway, her features and other parts.
Very ordinary.
Not someone of great wealth or power.
Reading faces and palms, this was the most fundamental ability.
Originally, Fifth Hui had thought that it might be the offspring of another divination family, and that he still needed to be careful to prevent retaliation.
Now it seemed that it was him who had overthought.
“Young lady, you’re awake.” Only then did Fifth Moon let out a sigh of relief, “It’s alright, you go, he only wants someone to block the disaster, I’m fine with that.”
“I don’t like to say it twice.” Ying coughed a few more times as she walked down the steps, “Fifth Moon, get out of the way.”
Fifth Moon was anxious, “Young lady, do you know about blocking disasters? You’ll die!”
She didn’t know what Ying Zidian had done earlier, but she could guess that I was afraid it had something to do with her.
For her sake, Ying Zidian had hurt her body.
The blood that she spat out was clearly visible to her, it was heart blood.
If she went back to block the disaster under such circumstances, she would be seriously injured without dying.
“I know.” Ying Ziyi coughed, her expression was calm as she looked towards Fifth Hui, “Let’s go.”
“Sense.” Fifth Hui was actually still partial to using outsiders to block disasters, so he stopped looking at Fifth Moon as well, “Take the people away.”
The two servants immediately stepped forward and were about to tie the girl up.
“Don’t touch.” Ying Ziyi faded, “I’ll go by myself.”
Fifth Hui frowned and looked at the girl’s features, “Just let her go by herself, she’s physically injured, badly, just right.”
That way, there would be no resistance.
Ying Ziji wiped the blood from her lips and went out of the courtyard door.
Fifth Moon was blocked by two other servants who knew ancient martial arts and couldn’t even get past.
She suddenly remembered that she still had Ying Zidian’s mobile phone, and hurriedly found the name with the piggyback logo and called it out.
“Hello, Missy’s brother?” Fifth Moon struggled to steady her voice, “Something’s happened to her, I’m sorry I couldn’t protect her.”
“This is Fifth Moon, I’m at the Fifth family’s ancestral home at ……”
**
Outside the courtyard.
“Second Master, Fifth Moon seems to have called someone.” The servant who had gone to ventilate earlier hesitated, “You don’t stop it, in case ……”
“Let her call.” Fifth Hui spun the Buddhist beads in her hand, quite contemptuously, “Who could she know?”
Fifth Moon’s talent for trigonometry was not strong, not even as good as Fifth Wind’s.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the current family head, Fifth Fan, was their own grandfather, Fifth Moon would have been expelled from the Fifth Family long ago.
He also had two ancient martial artists with deep internal energy by his side, and no one within the secular world could be a match.
Ancient martial artists of this level, although they did not have the gift of trigonometry, would not be affected by entering or leaving the Fifth Family’s ancestral home.
Fifth Moon didn’t know any ancient martial arts families, so calling in someone would just be sending them to their death.
Fifth Hui spun his Buddhist beads and stepped away, “Go.”
**
This way.
Nie Yi was discussing important matters with Fu Yunshen, when he saw the smile on his lips fade from appearing to instantly converging after answering a phone call, and then stood up.
The aura was terribly low.
Nie Yi’s eyes were faintly a hundred years old: “Yun Shen?”
“The fifth family, the fifth Hui.” Fu Yunshen didn’t bother with the tricky things anymore, he just walked outside, “Who is this?”
He had a layer of frost wrapped around his brow.
The peach blossom eyes, which were naturally smiling, also froze inch by inch.
As if it was a cold spring, cold and intimidating.
“Fifth Hui?” Nie Yi frowned, “A direct member of the fifth family, not in business, just an old trade, and many people in the empire still ask him for help with fortune telling.”
There were fewer trigram tellers, which was why they were more cherished.
Even those ancient martial arts families in the ancient martial arts world, who were not even involved in mundane matters, would spend a lot of money to hire a trigonometrist.
If they can divine the future and tell what will happen, they can avert many disasters.
The ones hired in the entertainment industry are also from the Fifth Family, but they are not as strong as the Fifth Fai.
Casual fortune tellers who can tell the fortune and point out the mystery of the future can also be used by those who are new to the Tao.
“Well, there’s no need to know.” Fu Yunshen smiled, “In the future, there will be no such person in the empire.”
