Chapter 171 Marriage Sign
Under Dong'er's strong request, Jiang Chengfeng had to "reluctantly" interpret the fortune for the little girl Dong'er.
But Jiang Chengfeng was talking so much that Dong'er was actually flirting with Shen Yao . Jiang Chengfeng couldn't help but feel angry and amused. It turned out that these two guys had been hooking up with each other for a long time, and they were even pretending to ask for divination for marriage!
After he finished speaking, Deshun actually applauded and praised Jiang Chengfeng for his good interpretation. He even glanced at the old monk who was chanting with his eyes closed as if in a defiant gesture.
"Brother Dazhu, why don't you also draw a fortune stick?" Deshun suggested.
Jiang Chengfeng thought about it, and in line with the principle of adapting to local customs, he also went to draw a fortune stick, which said: Just like a crane out of a cage, it escapes the cage and leaves nothing behind. There are no obstacles from north to south, east to west, and you can go straight up to the Ninth Heaven Palace.
Jiang Chengfeng frowned. When interpreting the divination for others, he could speak eloquently, but when it came to himself, he didn't dare to draw a conclusion easily.
"No, let me help you!"
Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind. Jiang Chengfeng turned around and saw Shen Ruoyan with a beautiful smile.
Jiang Chengfeng hesitated, and Shen Ruoyan smiled and said, "Don't you believe me?"
Jiang Chengfeng shook his head, "How is that possible? I'm just worried that my signature is too good! You're jealous and envious!"
Shen Ruoyan's beautiful eyes rolled back as she took the bamboo stick from Jiang Chengfeng and glanced at it. She couldn't help but said happily, "This is a very good stick. It not only predicts good fortune, but also helps with marriage!"
Jiang Chengfeng's eyes widened, "Is there such a thing?"
Although he said this, he was actually wondering in his heart, could this girl be lying to him?
Shen Ruoyan explained with a smile: "As for wealth, it says here that your career path will not be smooth, but after the difficulties, you will have good fortune!"
Jiang Chengfeng nodded, as if it was really the case.
"And this marriage—" Shen Ruoyan took a deep breath and said seriously: "It probably means that your good marriage has not come yet, you must wait patiently! And your future wife will help you become rich and powerful, and will be your benefactor! Isn't this a good fortune?"
Jiang Chengfeng looked at Shen Ruoyan in astonishment, thinking that this girl is more deceptive than me, she might consider coming to the temple to do a part-time job interpreting divinations!
After thinking about it, Jiang Chengfeng smiled and said, "Why am I so entangled in this? I should be more concerned about how to make money and marry a wife!"
"Miss, what's the fortune you're asking for?" Dong'er stretched her neck and exclaimed with her hands covering her mouth.
Shen Ruoyan glared at Dong'er, her cheeks flushed, and she covered the bamboo stick in her hand with her sleeves. Jiang Chengfeng was sharp-eyed, thinking that this girl didn't know what she wanted to ask, so he smiled and said, "Miss, why don't I help you?"
Shen Ruoyan's cheeks turned even redder. "I don't want to! I'll go ask the Zen Master!"
Seeing the young lady’s blushing face, Jiang Chengfeng was a little puzzled. Could it be that she was not asking about the Shen family’s fortune?
In fact, Shen Ruoyan had just asked for this fortune and hadn't had time to take a look at it. Just as she was about to take a look, Jiang Chengfeng stretched his neck to try to take a peek. Shen Ruoyan quickly put it away, glared at Jiang Chengfeng, and turned away.
Jiang Chengfeng shrugged helplessly. Isn't it just a fortune telling? Is it necessary to be so mysterious?
Not knowing what was written on the bamboo stick, Shen Ruoyan was confused after reading it. After a moment of daze, she went to find a Zen master to interpret the stick.
After a while, the interpretation came back, but the smile on Miss Shen's face disappeared, and her brows were full of sorrow. Jiang Chengfeng thought to himself, could it be that the old Zen master was also a big liar like himself, and what he said was ambiguous, because it was ethereal, so it made people feel more real and credible, human heart!
After returning from Lingyin Temple, Shen Ruoyan told Jiang Chengfeng and others to move freely tomorrow but not to run too far, and then she locked herself in the room.
Shen Yao and Dong'er were naturally overjoyed, as they were in love! They were just worried about not having time to be alone, so the eldest lady was helping them out!
Jiang Chengfeng was very puzzled. He was not puzzled about why Miss Shen looked so sad, but about the middle-aged uncle he met in Lingyin Temple. He was very confused about the origin of this uncle. Moreover, he actually forgot to find a buyer for this painting of mist and waves. He had to try his luck tomorrow!
The next morning, Shen Ruoyan got up early. Her previous sad expression disappeared and she regained her true nature as a strong woman in the business world. After breakfast, she went to look for local socialites and ladies in Huazhou to sell her products.
It was a rare free time, so Jiang Chengfeng simply went out for a stroll alone. Huazhou City was not very big, but it was very lively. Jiang Chengfeng walked around for most of the time, but he didn't feel tired at all.
However, when he strolled to the west city, he saw hundreds of people gathered beside Su Causeway, three layers inside and three layers outside, and all of them were kneeling on the ground, shouting that the Red Fairy Goddess had come down to earth.
When Jiang Chengfeng heard the words "Red Fairy Queen", his heart sank suddenly. He was very sensitive about the Red Fairy Sect now, so he immediately trotted forward to check it out.
When I looked closer, I saw a pink statue standing in an open area. It was surprisingly similar to the Queen Mother of the West, with a peaceful and calm expression.
Jiang Chengfeng took a closer look and discovered that this statue was different from any other Bodhisattva statue in the Buddhist temple. As for the Red Fairy Goddess, he had never heard of it before.
What surprised him was that a small part of the statue of the Red Fairy Goddess was buried in the soil. However, the statue was surrounded by various fruits and vegetables as offerings, and there were many incense burners with smoke rising from them. The believers shouted to the Red Fairy Goddess to save the suffering and enlighten all living beings.
At this moment, a big man with a curly beard came up to the top and shouted, "My fellow believers, the Red Fairy Goddess who saves the suffering has come down to earth!"
After he shouted like this, the believers below immediately became fanatical and shouted that the Red Fairy Goddess had come down to earth.
Jiang Chengfeng took a quick glance and immediately discovered that among these hundreds of devout believers, there were actually quite a few "devout believers" who were looking around with a sneaky look on their faces.
Jiang Chengfeng couldn't help but sneer. Isn't this the legendary assassin?
"I believe everyone has seen that the Red Fairy Goddess has boundless magical powers ! Now the statue of the Goddess is buried underground, but it can grow two inches every day. Do you know why? This is the Red Fairy Goddess showing her supreme magical powers to all believers! Now, the Red Fairy Goddess has come down to earth to save us, the suffering people, and we, the Red Fairy Dharma Assembly, are the messengers under the Red Fairy Goddess's seat, promoting the Red Fairy Goddess's kindness to save all living beings!"
"As long as you join the Red Fairy Dharma Assembly, the Red Fairy Goddess can ensure that everyone has enough food to eat, clothes to wear, and land to farm!"
After the bearded man said this, the believers below became agitated. Most of them immediately swore to join the Red Fairy Ceremony and kowtowed to the statue of the Red Fairy Goddess.
Grow two inches every day? Are you kidding me? Jiang Chengfeng stroked his chin lightly, his eyes wandering over the bearded man, thinking that this Red Immortal Cult must be the Red Immortal Cult!
