Su Baiyi rolled his eyes at the old Taoist priest, picked up the bamboo tube from the table, and handed it to Nangong Xier: "Senior Sister, you shake it."
Nangong Xier nodded, took the bamboo tube, and began to shake it gently. After shaking it a few times, a bamboo stick fell on the table. Su Baiyi picked it up and read: "Three rows and eleven columns."
"Three rows, eleven columns." The old Taoist turned around and found a small wooden grid on the wooden cabinet behind him. He opened it, took out a fortune slip from it, and handed it to Su Baiyi. Su Baiyi took it and saw that it was indeed a blank piece of paper. Nangong Xier took the fortune slip from Su Baiyi's hand, then walked to the stream and dipped the fortune slip into the water. Sure enough, the words on it soon appeared slowly.
"Interesting, interesting." Nangong Xier said with a smile.
Su Baiyi looked at the words that slowly appeared above, and his brows relaxed immediately: "Good luck, it's a good luck!"
"Good luck." Nangong Xier held up the fortune slip and read the words on it, "Only when you look at the rock can you find jade, and only when you wash the sand can you find gold. There is always hope in the blue sky, but I am afraid that my heart will not be firm."
"This fortune stick means that everything has just begun and good things have already begun. As long as you can hold on to your original intentions, everything in the future will be extremely bright." The scholar who had just spoken to them saw the fortune stick and began to explain to them.
Su Baiyi was already grinning from ear to ear: "Good luck is always good, good luck is always good."
"Congratulations, both of you. I wonder where you live in the city? When the wedding is over, I would like to go and have a drink of wedding wine." The scholar said with a smile.
"Ah?" Su Baiyi blushed and then she remembered that this was a place to pray for love, and the meaning of the fortune stick was naturally about love.
"We are just travelers passing through, not people from Qianxun City." Nangong Xier answered calmly.
"I see. Where are you two from?" The scholar continued to ask without hesitation.
"Shili Langyao, the academy." Nangong Xier placed the slip in Su Baiyi's hand and said, "Let's go."
"Shili Langyao..." The scholar thought for a moment before reacting, "Xuegong!" For every scholar, these six words represent more than just a place name. But when he wanted to ask more, the man and woman in front of him had disappeared.
"No matter what the fortune says, it's at least a good omen." At the entrance of the Taoist temple, Nangong Xier said softly to Su Baiyi, "You're going on a long journey soon, so take it with you for good luck."
Su Baiyi folded up the signature, put it in his arms, and nodded: "Yes."
As they were talking, a red carriage stopped in front of them, and the one holding the whip was none other than Naraku, the little maid on the Golden Wind.
"Senior Sister, this carriage is here to pick you up. Follow Naraku and wait for me in Qingzhou City. I will come to pick you up soon." Su Baiyi said in a deep voice.
"I'll be waiting for you." Nangong Xier said softly, then jumped onto the carriage.
Naraku raised his whip and swung it fiercely: "Go!"
Su Baiyi turned around and shouted, "Senior Sister, I will be back soon!"
"I know." Nangong Xier said loudly while sitting in the carriage, then stretched out her finger and gently wiped the corner of her eye.
Su Baiyi watched the carriage go farther and farther away, feeling disappointed. He sighed and turned around to find Su Jian standing on the roof opposite, also staring at the moving carriage. Su Baiyi immediately put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and the sword energy on his body suddenly rose. He had just absorbed all of Nangong Xier's internal energy into his body a few days ago, and now he didn't need to take the last pill, and he still had the strength to fight.
Su Jian retracted his gaze, looked at Su Baiyi below, and sighed: "You don't believe what I say."
"Senior sister is so weak now. You said you want to go to Kunlun. How can she hold on with the vast ice fields and endless snow-capped mountains?" Su Baiyi asked back.
"Forget it. I didn't lie to you. The ancestors of the Su family on Kunlun Mountain did have a way to save her. But you are right. In her current state, it is difficult for her to cross the ice field. Letting her go to Qingzhou City to recuperate is also a good idea." Su Jian jumped down from the roof and shook his head helplessly at Su Baiyi. "Put away your sword energy. Even if you have learned the Tian Ning sword technique, it is still ten years too early for you to use the sword against me!"
Su Baiyi released his hand from the hilt and said hesitantly, "Senior, are you willing to let my sister go?"
"Do you think I lied to you to take my sister with me to Kunlun because I wanted to use her as a threat? Yes, I did have this idea at first, but then I thought that even if I didn't take you, you would want to go with me." Su Jian patted Su Baiyi's shoulder, "In fact, I now feel more and more that you are like me when I was young."
"I'm a good person!" Su Baiyi defended.
"They call me the Demon Lord, but that doesn't mean I'm a bad person. I mean your persistence is like mine sometimes." Su Jian said with a smile, "Now you want to avoid those people's pursuit, but don't want to cause trouble to your friends. Then Kunlun, which is far away in the sky, is the best choice. And there, you can find a way to deal with these people. There is no reason for you not to go."
Su Baiyi let out a long sigh of relief: "Senior, you should have told me earlier. I have been secretly planning this with Mu Nianhua, and I was afraid that you would find out."
Su Jian walked forward and said, "Don't think that I don't understand the ways of the world just because I have been in the Nether Prison for so many years. But having said that, your sister is really good. She can be the mistress of my Su family."
"Madam?" Su Baiyi curled her lips in disdain, "These two words really make you look old."
"The mistress of the Su family is an unparalleled honor." Su Jian said seriously, "This is the highest evaluation I can give to a woman."
Su Baiyi didn't want to talk about this with Su Jian, so he immediately changed the subject: "By the way, Senior, didn't you say you don't like Qianxun City? Why?"
"I once met a girl here, but she left me." Su Jian said calmly.
Su Baiyi frowned: "Isn't the girl you like the female musician in Xuanwei City?"
Su Jian said impatiently, "Our Su family's son is famous all over the world, how could there be only one!"
"Then I don't agree with what you just said about me being the same as you!" Su Baiyi patted his chest, where the slightly damp signature was placed, "I am very determined!"
Su Jian looked up at the moon in the sky and said, "I am very loyal to every woman. Although my heart has been torn apart and given to many women, my love for each piece is stronger than gold!"
