Chapter 519
Master Lou only felt that he was fixed in place and could not move.
But clearly, there was no sign of wind anywhere else except where he was standing.
This was a formation!
It was still possible for trigram tellers to use the formation to perform some simple calls for wind and rain.
Just like some ancient actions to pray for rain.
But he hadn’t even noticed when there was an additional formation here!
Master Lou was shocked and appalled.
At that moment, Ying Ziji’s hand moved.
“Ka-ching.”
There was a crunching sound, and the wooden sword cracked in response.
And at this moment, the wind suddenly increased.
The surrounding trigonometrists could clearly see that Master Lou’s short black hair was turning white again at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This was the depletion of his body essence!
Lou Wenhai was 72 years old, but his hair was black, but now it was back to its normal appearance.
His future luck had really been taken away from him.
So accordingly, his body’s origin had been consumed in advance.
“You, you-” Master Lou naturally sensed it, and he looked up sharply at the girl, shocked and angry, “Who are you? Who the hell are you?!”
Ying Ziji did not move her eyebrows, her voice suppressed, and she gave a light laugh, “Who am I?”
“I will know even if you don’t tell me!” Lou Wenhai’s fingers kept on counting, faster and faster, but in the twinkling of an eye, he suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood.
The people around him shouted out in alarm, “Master Lou!”
Master Lou opened his mouth, blood flowing down the corners of his mouth, and he stared in disbelief, “For-”
He didn’t finish the rest of his question, and his body collapsed heavily.
Before pa*sing out completely, Master Lou had only one thought.
Why, he couldn’t calculate it?
And, why would he suffer such a severe backlash just for counting a person’s name?!
Even in the past, when he helped a family change the qi of an entire family, nothing like this had ever happened.
“……”
There was dead silence all around.
And from the beginning to the end, Ying Ziji had only broken a wooden sword.
She did not bother to look at Master Lou, who had fallen to the ground, and walked towards the outside.
The others subconsciously gave way to a path.
And it was only when the girl had gone that the crowd came to their senses, and now they were all in a hurry.
“Master!”
“Master stay!”
“Master! Please take me as a disciple!”
But when they went after her, the girl had long since disappeared.
A middle-aged man stopped where he was, sucked in a breath backwards and muttered, “This is a real master ……”
Compared to that, what is Lou Wenhai?
This time, the whole Chinese trigonometry world was going to shake.
**
Under the mountain.
The fifth moon smoothly took away the refreshments from the party and followed Ying Zigui out.
She had seen all of what had happened earlier.
“Crap!” Fifth Moon suddenly blurted out, “Miss, he didn’t become like this just because he forgot your name, did he?”
Ying Ziji stroked the dust off her sleeve and raised an eyebrow, “That’s why I told you to count less and not to count me.”
She had easily changed Fifth Moon’s fortune, and didn’t want Fifth Moon to follow Fifth Shao-string’s old path again because of the calculation of her.
“Ughhhhhh.” Fifth Moon choked on the snack, “Not counting not counting, I don’t count you until the critical moment.”
After thinking about it, she asked again, “But when did you set up a formation?”
The fifth moon is most annoyed with setting up formations, because the book about this
“Didn’t you notice that I walked around after I took you in?”
“Wow. I thought you were taking me for a walk to make me consume more and eat more, Miss, but it turns out you were setting up a formation.”
“Mr. Chuan Lao, I think Fifth Moon could have memorized more books.” Ying Zigui held her mobile phone and called Fifth Chuan, “What do you think about the House Sutra and the Poor Tong Bao Jian?”
The “House Sutra” is about reading feng shui, and the “Poor Tong Bao Jian” is about fortune telling.
When the fifth Chuan on the other end of the phone heard this, he nodded his head repeatedly, as if he had found a soulmate: “Is that what the master thinks too? It’s the same as what the old man was thinking.”
“I’ve printed all my books for her, originally I planned to wait for Little Wind, Little Flower and Little Snow to memorise them together when they returned from their training, but when Master Ancestor said so, it would be better to let Yue memorise them first in advance.”
After all, Fifth Moon was really too disobedient and had to be forced to memorise the book.
Over here, Fifth Moon had just eaten her second piece of dim sum when she received a call from Fifth Chuan.
After listening to it, she smiled reluctantly, “Grandpa, it’s so windy, I can’t hear-”
“There’s no wind today.” Ying Ziji looked thoughtfully at the sky and his voice was soft, “It’s appropriate to recite the book.”
“……”
**
The news that the Hall of Justice was going to re-elect a new confessor had also spread among the major clans of the ancient martial world.
The three families, Lin, Xie and Yue, each had a candidate to run for the consecration election as well.
The Lin family’s candidate was Lin Jinyun’s younger brother.
Lin Jinyun attached great importance to this offering election.
When he returned from the Hall of Justice, he immediately called his housekeeper over, “Where is Lou Wenhai? I have something to see him.”
Ever since Fifth Hui had offended someone and was abolished from the Fifth Family’s ability to tell fortunes, the Lin Family had one less imperial fortune teller.
And Lou Wenhai, too, was one of the Lin family’s imperial fortune-tellers.
The Lin family was not as lucky as the Xie family to have a strong fortune teller like the Xie family’s Grand Elder, so they could only go about recruiting people.
There are actually not many existing trigram tellers in China, most of them are secluded, and it is likely that there is a powerful trigram teller in some small county.
Back then, the reason why people from the Lin family ran into An Roujin and Lin Qingjia’s mother and daughter outside was that they had actually gone to recruit a Guaoshu practitioner and had not expected to meet an ancient martial arts genius.
The butler was respectful: “Your family head, Master Lou is in the secular world, a while ago a star in the secular world invited him, he went out and hasn’t come back yet.”
A trigonometric calculator of Lou Wen Hai’s level was not lowly known in the circle, and quite a few people would invite him.
“Good.” Lin Jinyun nodded, “You tell him to come back as soon as possible and do the calculations about the election of the offerings this time.”
The butler immediately went to contact Lou Wen Hai.
Ten minutes later, he ran back with a panicked expression, “Family head, something has happened, Master Lou is in hospital!”
Lin Jinyun frowned, “What’s going on?”
The butler recounted what had happened on Yusong Mountain and shivered, “The trigonometry world is all in an uproar.”
This time, not only Lin Jin Yun, but even the Grand Elder was taken aback, “Is there really such a person?”
Without moving a muscle, to crush Lou Wenhai, a trigonometry master, in such a way, could only be a trigonometry practitioner as well.
To be even stronger than Lou Wenhai!
Even, more powerful than that Grand Elder of the Xie Family.
The Grand Elder looked grave: “Is it the junior of the Fifth Family?”
There was actually nothing wrong with the saying that the older a trigram teller was, the stronger they were, because they had so much to learn.
Only the Guaoshu family had a lot of resources to train them.
“Your Honorable Grand Elder, no.” The steward wiped his sweat, “But according to some of the trigrams and calculators at the gathering at that time, it seemed that they had seen the figure of the Fifth Family’s Miss Yue, but that master was definitely not.”
The Grand Elder’s brow furrowed.
It wasn’t the Fifth Family, when had such a young trigonometrist appeared in the trigonometry world again?
According to the steward’s description, it wasn’t a diviner from the O Continent side either.
“Jin Yun, this master, he must be invited into the Lin family.” The Grand Elder turned his head to look at Lin Jin Yun and paused, “If we don’t move, the Xie family and the Yue family’s side, will definitely make a move as well.”
“The Moon Family doesn’t need to worry, but we definitely can’t let the Xie Family add another booster.”
Lin Jinyun nodded, “Definitely.”
**
The fifth family’s ancestral home.
Li Han waited until Ying Zidian returned, she got up: “Sister Ying, the master you were talking about?”
Ying Zigey nodded slightly: “He vomited blood and fainted in hospital, I don’t know how he is now.”
Originally there was karma, she had done it, and it only made Lou Wenhai less lucky and unlucky.
Who knew he was going to count her name.
Li Han: “???”
Forgive her for being a university student, she really didn’t understand metaphysics.
Li Han spoke again, “Schoolmate Ying, it’s getting late, let me take you back.”
“No need.” Ying Zidian shook his head, “I’ll walk you.”
“I don’t need to.” Li Han waved her hand as she glanced at her phone, “Tsk, look, you’re calling me again.”
“Younger sister Ying, do you want to go to the hospital? I’ll perform a one-person debate for you.”
Ying Zidian raised her eyebrows slightly, “I’d like to see that.”
“Let’s go.” Li Liang smiled, “I’ll go and see what they’re going to do after they can’t borrow their luck.”
Thirty minutes later, the two arrived at the Imperial City Hospital.
Li Wenxuan was still in a coma, but was finally out of danger.
Li’s father had gone to contact Master Lou, but he couldn’t get in touch with him at all, so he was furious.
Li’s mother sat by the bedside, wiping her tears.
Inadvertently, she saw a few cracks on the jade pendant hanging around Li Wenxuan’s neck.
Lai’s mother changed her expression, “Honey, look, look, borrow luck ……”
Lai’s father looked over and froze, before he could say anything, applause rang out from the entrance of the ward.
“What, you can’t borrow luck anymore, it’s like this?”
Mother Li’s heart thumped: “Little cold, we ……”
“I thought how big a deal.” Li Han tsked out, “He’s dead, and you guys are here crying about mourning?”
Li’s father’s face was blue: “b*****d! What are you talking about?”
“One word with you all, don’t try to borrow my luck.” Li Han wasn’t angry, instead he smiled, “You won’t be able to borrow it in the future, your family has nothing to do with me, remember that clearly.”
At this, Lai’s father understood, and he was shocked and angry, “It was you who lifted the borrowed luck?!”
“It’s just a bit of luck for you, ah, your brother’s life isn’t important anymore?” And Li’s mother even cried out, “You just need a little less luck, what your brother lost was his life, how can you be so cruel?”
Chapter 520
Now that Li Wenxuan was lying unconscious in bed, Li Han came over here to show off his strength, and Li’s mother’s heart instantly went cold.
Especially when she thought of her father-in-law and mother-in-law suppressing and despising her after she gave birth to Li Han, all her resentment towards Li Han exploded in her heart.
If her first child had been a son, she wouldn’t have been looked upon with disdain by the people around her.
Li’s mother wiped her tears: “Are you happy that your brother has become like this now? Little Han, mum always thought you were kind, I really didn’t expect you to turn out like this.”
“So powerful, moral kidnapping.” Li Han clapped his hands again, “Sorry, schoolmate Ying, this woman has watched too many dramas from her childhood.”
“Hm.” Ying Zidian turned her head, “I can see that.”
After a pause, she said lightly, “It’s a bit disgusting.”
“Isn’t it?” Li Liang laughed, “You’re pretending to be aggrieved and crying at me. If you keep crying, you’ll really send your son away.”
Ever since she knew that she had been borrowed for three years and would one day die because of it, she no longer had any attachment to this family.
In the past, when Li’s father had beaten her, Li’s mother would still protect her, but now it seemed to be nothing more than a superficial act.
In her father’s and mother’s eyes, only Li Wenxuan was their child.
Li’s mother’s face turned white.
“Shut up!” Li’s father jerked up and interrupted directly, laughing scornfully, “How do you compare to your brother? Can you pa*s on the family name? If you have children in the future, that’s not Lai’s surname either!”
“Article 1,015 of the Civil Code states -” Hearing this, Ying Ziji raised his eyes, his voice light, “A child should take the father’s or mother’s surname.”
Father Li was poked and prodded, and his face changed: “I don’t care about the Civil Code, Li Han, you ……”
“If you haven’t read, don’t cross there, what a mess of dross.” Li Han didn’t care at all about this impotent rage of Li’s father, she just laughed, “I don’t necessarily want to have children yet, I live for myself, what do you care?”
Li’s mother, still crying, heard this, “How can you not have children? You’re a woman, you ……”
Before she could finish her words, a small book was heavily thrown at her face.
Mother Li froze.
On that book, there was a sum of money written down.
From skewed to neat handwriting, many years of this book, the paper was yellowing.
“You guys haven’t spent a single penny on me since I was in junior high school, and now you want my life.” Li Han held up a finger, “This is the money you have spent on me, I will give it to you when the time comes, but I will not be obliged to support you in the future.”
“Right, I forgot to tell you guys, I’ve applied for an exchange program to go over to o continent, you guys don’t want to find me, you don’t even have pa*sports and you can’t leave the country anyway.”
Li’s father’s face turned blue: “Li Han, what do you mean? I raised you, you have to pay for my old age!”
He also knew that Li Wenxuan was untalented, but that was his son.
He was still counting on Li Han to earn money to support Li Wenxuan.
But he also knew that for Lai Han to be able to say that, it was absolutely true.
“Leave the inheritance to your son though, ah, it’s not even a five figure inheritance, I’ll be able to earn it back in a month with a few codes, seriously, you’re two old trash.” Rihan pointed to the bed again, “And him, he’s a little loser, you three hug it out.”
After saying that, she pulled the girl over, “Schoolmate Ying, let’s go.”
Father Li was completely furious: “Li Han! Li Han, come back here!”
The door closed with a bang, blocking him out.
Mother Li was dumbfounded.
Outside the door.
Li Han followed Ying Zidian down the stairs, slowly letting out a breath of relief, wiping the sweat from his face, his voice dropping coldly: “After all the scolding, I finally feel more comfortable.”
Xue Guohua treated her like a granddaughter anyway, and she didn’t lack affection.
“Schoolmate Ying, I forgot to ask you about that thing with Professor Helvin.” Li Han thought for a moment, “This …… doesn’t count as me helping you, is there anything else I can help you with?”
This life of hers was all given by Ying Zigui.
Let her die because of an experimental accident, she didn’t even want to give Li Wenxuan a bit of luck.
Ying Zidian shook her head slightly, “You’re helping me if you can agree to take part in the experiment.”
Li Han was stunned and wrinkled her brows, “Why do you say that?”
Ying Zigey raised her head and looked into the distant sky, her eyes clear: “Because this project will most likely not be finished in ten or even twenty years.”
“And with your ability, if you don’t take part in this project, you will still be able to make a name for yourself in the research world in five years.”
“Oh, this.” Li Han didn’t care, “Isn’t scientific research a constant battle? You don’t say, I’m interested in the space carrier project. I’ll be happy to be the driving force behind the development of human civilization by then.”
Ying Zidian nodded, but asked, “Do you need any legal help?”
“No.” Rihan waved her hand, “I’m prepared for that.”
She took a few steps forward and found the girl still standing in place, wondering what she was thinking about.
Rihan stopped and raised her hand to shake it, “Schoolmate Ying?”
“I was thinking that I could make a play and use it to give more girls a warning.” Ying Ziji thought about it, “Where is your village? I’ll have my staff go on location.”
Li Han: “???”
Was she indirectly offering a position to the students from the film school next door?
She suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment again.
**
The following day.
Lin Jinyun took someone to see Lou Wenhai.
There were indeed many disciples under Lou Wenhai, one group left and another came, and the ward was packed with people.
Most of these disciples had only been in the path for a short while and did not know the existence of the ancient martial arts world yet, so naturally they did not know Lin Jinyun.
Lou Wenhai had woken up, but was stiff and unable to move.
“Wen Hai, who is that master?” Lin Jinyun got straight to the point, “And which school of formation was the one used?”
Unlike Ancient Medicine and Ancient Martial Arts, Gua Arithmetic had existed before the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, only that it had been pa*sed down to this day and many schools of thought had disappeared.
Who knew, upon hearing these words, Lou Wenhai looked like he had encountered some serious stimulus, his eyes rolled over and he directly pa*sed out.
Lin Jinyun frowned and looked at the person next to him.
That person was Lou Wenhai’s closed door disciple, he shivered and hurriedly returned, “Your Excellency, Master this is in the process of trigonometry, he has suffered a serious backlash, I don’t know when he will be able to recover, it is also possible ……”
His voice was difficult, “It won’t recover for a lifetime.”
“So serious?” Lin Jinyun was slightly shocked, “What did your master trigram calculate?”
Lin Jin Yun didn’t know much about trigonometry, but he also knew that not everything in this world could be calculated.
Moreover, according to the different abilities of fortune tellers, there were differences in the things that could be calculated.
But Lou Wenhai was able to calculate even a family’s fortune, what else could he be reversed for?
“I’m not sure.” The man was in a difficult position, “I wasn’t in the same place as Master at the time, I only know that he became like this after he fought with that master.”
Lin Jinyun nodded, got up, and led the men to the fifth family’s ancestral home again.
But in the end, there was still no useful information.
Fifth Chuan even said that he didn’t know who this master really was.
Lin Jinyun pursed his lips, “Keep checking, and make sure to invite in the Lin family as instructed by the Grand Elder.”
**
Li Wenxuan had been lying in the hospital for almost a week and was all set to be discharged, but suddenly another condition occurred and the hospital issued a critical illness notice.
Li Wenxuan only had a month to live.
Li’s father also knew about Lou Wenhai’s collapse and was going crazy as he couldn’t contact Li Han.
Li’s mother kept crying, “Honey, what can we do?”
“We’ll go to Imperial University!” Father Li gritted his teeth, “If she doesn’t come out, I’ll publicise her disregard for her family and see if she still has a face!”
Mother Li hesitated, “Is that a good idea?”
“Do you want to see Wenxuan die like this?”
Mother Li stopped talking.
Li’s father rushed off to Imperial University in a rage, then realised he didn’t even know what Li Han’s major was, nor did he know the dormitory number.
It didn’t take long for a student volunteer to spot him and Li’s mother and take the two to the student union.
Yan Anhe was discussing things with some ministers and didn’t even look at Li’s father and mother.
That was until she heard Lai Han’s name.
Yan Anhe’s gaze sized up Li’s father and mother with scrutiny and condescension, “Are you Li Han’s parents?”
The clothes Yan Anhe was wearing were high-fashion and her aura was full.
Li’s mother was very formal: “Yes, it’s us, you and Xiao Han are?”
“My name is Yan An-Ho, and I’m friends with her.” Yan Anhe smiled, meaning it, “You guys said that Li Han doesn’t care about you guys?”
“Yes, that’s right!” Li’s father added oil and vinegar to everything, except for borrowing luck, “She has blacked out both me and her mother, we have no choice but to come to the school for help, can you help us call her out?”
Yan Anhe faded, “Li Han is very stubborn, even if I call her out, she won’t listen to you guys.”
Li’s mother was even more panicked: “Then, what should we do?”
“It’s useless for you guys to give me the word, you still have to give it to the other students.” Yan Anhe said, “With so many people around, there’s no way Li Han will brush you off and will go back with you.”
Father Li’s eyes lit up, “Miss Yan, that’s what I mean too, but there’s no way to gather so many students.”
Unfiliality, that was a big transgression.
If Li Han dared to break off his relationship with them, he would make it infamous that Li Han couldn’t stay in Imperial University.
“You guys are really lucky that there happens to be a lecture in the a*sembly Hall today in your junior year.” Yan Anhe stood up and smiled, “Let me take you there, just tell the truth, there are so many people for you to watch, no need to be afraid.”
In the a*sembly Hall of the Imperial University, the junior students were basically all there, there were nearly five thousand people.
Today it was originally a professor from abroad who had come to give a lecture, and the students had all arrived half an hour early.
But before the lecture started, a middle-aged man appeared on stage, dressed in a very slovenly manner.
The bottom whispered.
“Who is this?”
“Who is it, with a fierce face and unkempt clothes how did he get in?”
“Xiao Han!” The roommate was shocked and lowered his voice, “Isn’t that your father?”
Li Han’s face was expressionless.
She knew that Li’s father and mother wouldn’t let it go.
Just as well.
On the stage, Lai’s father was constantly wailing.
“Her mother and I are at our wit’s end, her brother is about to die and she won’t even come to see him, and she says she’s going to break off relations with us.”
“She can’t look at us poor people anymore after she went to Imperial University here.”
The students were also a bit shocked.
After all, Li Han had a good reputation on campus, and many of her schoolmates admired her.
“Lai Han is such a person? It can’t be. ……”
“This, not even going back when your brother dies, is a bit too cold-blooded and heartless.”
Knowing the inside story, the housemate was furious and rolled up his sleeves, “Little chill, I’ll go kick him down.”
“No need.” Li Liang smiled and opened a video that she had edited a long time ago.
At that moment, a WeChat dialog box popped up on her phone.
It was Ying Ziyi.
[Send me the video, do your parents have a job?
Before Li Han could even think about how Ying Ziji knew she had the video, she forwarded it to her and quickly typed down two addresses and company names.
There, Ying Zidian took a look.
She opened her computer, opened three more windows and started typing in the program.
These three windows, respectively, docked to the Imperial a*sembly Hall, Li’s father’s and Li’s mother’s companies.
There was no buffering, a direct invasion.
So, just as Li’s father was impa*sioned and vocal, berating Li Han on stage for not being filial to his parents and not caring about his brother’s death, the big screen behind him descended.
Yan Anhe, who was sitting on the stage, saw it but didn’t care, just thinking that someone in the backstage control room had accidentally pressed the wrong button.
She turned her head slightly, looked at the sullen and cold looking Li Han, and smiled again, “Li Han, I really didn’t see that you were able to abandon even your parents.”
After today, in the Imperial University, Li Han’s reputation was ruined, how could he still compete with her?
And at that moment, the image appeared on the big screen.
It was a video, edited from several videos.
The main character in several of the videos was the same, it was Li’s father.
Obviously, it was taken from the perspective of another interlocutor.
The grim and twisted face of Lai’s father was clearly magnified.
“I’m telling you, from now on, you don’t want any of the family’s property, it’s all your brother’s.”
“Also, what kind of school are you going to as a girl? What’s the point? Hurry up, no volunteering, go straight to work to pay for your brother’s schooling.”
“Stomach ache? Hold on to your stomachache, your brother is going to the amusement park today, you can fix it yourself.”
“Girls are money losers, do you understand?”
The whole room was silent.
All eyes, all eyes fell on Lai’s father.
