During a livestream, I connected with a top celebrity filming in Southeast Asia. He was hiding in his hotel room, looking sickly green, his expression terrified: "Streamer, I think I've encountered something unclean!" I pondered for a moment: "Indeed, there is something unclean..." Fans frantically flooded the chat, begging me to save their idol. I dipped my brush in cinnabar, drew a talisman with fluid strokes, and held it up to the camera: "An anti-diarrhea talisman. Screenshot it and use it as your phone wallpaper; it will protect your stomach in Southeast Asia. "The director told you to do a light fast, not to lightly bite off unclean food at the night market, okay?" 1 Hearing me say this, the celebrity visibly tensed up, repeatedly making a "shh" gesture at the camera. "Julian Thorne! "Didn't you say you went to the gym last night?!" A hand as white as porcelain reached into the frame, expertly twisting Julian's ear half a turn, making him yelp in pain. "Sis, Sis, I was wrong! "I just went to eat some raw marinated seafood. It didn't have an ingredient list, and you said if it doesn't have a label, it's zero calories!" Julian twisted and dodged, accidentally bringing his sister into the frame. 【Oh my god, my carb-loving idol. Have you guys forgotten how he warned everyone right after debut to cherish the time while he was still thin?】 【Stop laughing, guys. Dieting is really hard. Only our brother knows the spicy and savory joy in that food!】 【Sister Thorne has such an authoritative face! Petition for Julian to switch to mukbang and let Sister Thorne debut!】 Seeing she was also on camera, Sister Thorne resentfully released her grip on Julian. Julian covered his ear with a mournful face and asked me for help: "Streamer, it's true I ate something bad, but I really encountered something unclean. "Last night, I got up in the middle of the night with diarrhea. The TV was on, the screen full of smoke, and I could faintly hear people screaming. I thought I forgot to turn off the TV before sleeping, and couldn't find the remote, so I just unplugged it. But when I got up again for the bathroom, the TV was still on, showing the same scene!" I explained: "The south side of your room corresponds to the Li trigram, meaning excessive fire energy, and the Five Elements belong to Wood. Such a building is best balanced by being built near water. But there is no sign of water around you. This kind of hotel location, if it encounters the Flying Star of the year, is prone to 'fire disasters.' This place must have suffered a devastating fire in the past, causing great loss of life." Julian's face grew uglier as he listened. He took out another phone to search online. "Damn, a tanker truck overturned downstairs before, exploded, and caused a huge fire that burned hundreds of people to death!" Julian's face turned pale, looking at his sister in disbelief: "Sis, I'm your biological brother. How could you set me up like this?!" Sister Thorne rubbed her forehead, unable to force a smile: "Did you forget we're filming a horror movie? The director designated this location for shooting! When you were interviewed, didn't you look forward to staying in a haunted hotel?" Julian clutched his head and wailed: "I thought it was just hype! Other camping variety shows film in the wild but go back to sleep in hotel suites. How was I supposed to know that filming a horror movie meant actually staying in a hotel where a fire happened?! We don't need to be this immersive!" 【Go! Go! Go! Let's go, see how strong the ghost hotel vibe is...】 【First time seeing a team not revolving around the artist but playing the artist like a fiddle.】 【You guys really have no heart. Am I the only one worried about my brother's safety?】 Seeing too many anxious comments, I spoke up to comfort them: "Don't worry, the fire was many years ago, and the hotel has been renovated. Your Fortune Palace is full, your Yintang is wide and upright without lines, indicating a life of prosperity. If it weren't for your physical discomfort depleting your Yang fire, you wouldn't see these things at all. "Use the anti-diarrhea talisman. After a sleep, you won't be affected anymore. Just place your slippers, one facing forward and one backward, in front of the bed. This indicates you are just passing through, and they won't disturb you again." Julian gripped his sister's arm tightly, shaking his head like a rattle drum: "I won't listen, I won't listen. I absolutely refuse to stay in this room tonight!" Sister Thorne was helpless: "Then let's swap rooms, okay?" The boy nodded vigorously. Sister Thorne broke free from his grip and solemnly thanked me facing the camera: "Thank you so much today. When Julian's movie is released, we'd like to invite you to the premiere. Is that okay?" As she spoke, a necklace accidentally revealed from her collar caught my attention. 2 "Point the necklace you're wearing at the camera. Let me take a closer look." Sister Thorne obediently took off the necklace, held it in her hand, and brought it close to the lens. Two trapezoidal jade pieces formed a rectangular gilded locket, intricately carved with a figure of a shapely woman, with fox tails faintly visible behind her. "You'd better not wear this necklace anymore." Sister Thorne looked troubled: "I just got it from an Archan (Thai master) yesterday. He said after bonding, I must wear it every day." I frowned: "Your Career Palace is ruddy and full, indicating career success. Look at you, daring to bring your brother into a haunted hotel for a more perfect horror movie. Such determination and courage confirm this. "But your Marriage Palace is dim and gloomy, indicating separation. Don't blame me for being blunt, but whenever you fall in love, you inevitably meet a scumbag." Julian forgot his fear and nodded repeatedly: "Master, you are so accurate. The boyfriends my sister dated... one was a mama's boy who asked his mom what to wear, one seamlessly moved on to his first love, and the current one... mmm..." Julian, having his mouth covered by Sister Thorne again, started struggling in vain. The chat room was buzzing. 【How pretty do you have to be to be loved?】 【The value of the phrase 'the result is the same anyway' is still rising.】 【Am I the only one curious why Sister Thorne shouldn't wear the necklace?】 "When you requested this necklace, were you told it was a Fox Immortal amulet, a highly spiritual wild nine-tailed fox that would make your love life smooth and your boyfriend devoted to you?" Sister Thorne blushed slightly and whispered "Mm-hmm." I gave my conclusion directly: "It's impossible for fox fur to be sealed inside the pendant. Think about it, is the climate in Southeast Asia suitable for wild foxes? If we're talking about Fox Immortals, Northeast China haven't even spoken up yet, and somehow Southeast Asia produced a nine-tailed fox?" A faint embarrassment colored her exquisite brows, but she suppressed her temper: "But right after I put on the necklace, he immediately apologized and begged for my forgiveness!" "That's because the Archan used the method for making Yin amulets. With such heavy evil energy, what's sealed in the pendant is either the hair of a woman who died tragically unmarried or corpse oil refined from a premature fetus. Either one has the ability to let you feel the effects immediately. "The more effective they are, the bigger their appetite. Ordinary offerings cannot satisfy them at all. You will only sink deeper step by step to meet their demands, eventually reaching a point of no return. Is it worth it for a man?" Hearing this, Sister Thorne took a deep breath, barely controlling her trembling hands, and carefully opened the pendant. Inside rolled a bead filled eighty percent with a brownish-black liquid, in which strands of hair were indeed visible. Seeing this, even I couldn't help but sigh: "Small workshops really go hard on ingredients. Corpse oil and corpse hair, a double dose." Fear flickered in Sister Thorne's eyes, and she flung the necklace away violently. Taking advantage of his sister being distracted, Julian secretly sent me a photo of her boyfriend. I clicked on the photo, scrutinized it for a moment, and shook my head even more: "The person you are dating now has sunken temples, indicating he is often a groom. Even wearing ten necklaces won't make him loyal to you." Sister Thorne hadn't recovered from the shock of wearing a corpse oil necklace close to her body and looked at me blankly. A new message notification popped up on her phone. Julian snatched it before she could react and read the content word by word: "If you trust me, check, check, your boyfriend." With one shock after another, Sister Thorne calmed down instead, but her voice was icy cold: "Ask the other side—you three, me three?" Julian looked at his sister with some worry before replying as instructed. The other side seemed to be waiting by the phone and replied immediately. "I'm three, you're four. The eldest is taking care of the kids back home, the fifth is a junior schoolmate." The chat exploded. 【Hello, I am Netizen Number Six.】 【I know three and four, but together they seem a bit unfamiliar.】 【Anything discovered before marriage should be treated as good news. Cut it off early, grow early!】 【Does this scumbag's family run an antique shop? Why does he call everyone 'Baby'?】 At this point, Sister Thorne calmed down a bit more, pressed the angry Julian into the chair in front of the camera, and said to me: "Master, thank you so much today. When our work here is done, we will definitely come to thank you in person." After speaking, she slapped the back of Julian's head again. Julian subconsciously put on his business smile: "That's it for today's livestream, babies don't worry. See you in our work in 2025!" 3 【Little Tang, is Sister Thorne's boyfriend really that scummy?】 As soon as I went offline, my best friend Grape sent a gossipy WeChat message. 【Not only is her boyfriend a scumbag, but the guy chasing you isn't a good match either.】 Speaking of this, I couldn't help but lecture her. After I came down from Heming Temple, I briefly set up a stall at a suburban night market. She was my first fortune-telling customer. I was the one who dealt with her scum ex-boyfriend back then. Later, when she came to visit me at Heming Temple, a handsome guy with vertical pupils diligently picked her up and dropped her off. If she hadn't told me in time that the guy was a professional cosplayer and actually a girl who was just tall and loved wearing unique colored contacts, I would have almost summoned lightning to strike. 【Don't worry, a relative introduced him. It's just going through the motions to placate the parents. Little Tang, did you calculate some gossip about him? Tell me quickly!】 I found typing troublesome, so I sent a voice message, concise and comprehensive: "That man claims he studied abroad when he was young, and his parents were lonely so they had a second child. Actually, the little son is his. The child's biological mother is a hostess at a nightclub who gave birth and dumped the child on him before running away. His parents are getting older and don't have the energy to raise the child for him anymore. The family then discussed getting married quickly to find a nanny who can take care of both the old and the young." "Oh my god, that's great!" "?" "This is a ready-made excuse. I'd like to see who dares to introduce me to a blind date again!" "Don't worry. When you meet your true love, when the Red Phoenix Star moves, I'll tell you." "You're the best!" ... 4 After reciting the morning scriptures, I started the livestream on time. As soon as I went online, a user named "Heaven Rewards Diligence" bought the link. After confirming via private message that he was willing to show his face, we started a video connection. "Hello, what would you like to divine?" "Heaven Rewards Diligence" was a simple and honest middle-aged man, his eyes full of hope: "Streamer, can you help me look at the fruit orchard behind me? I want to contract it." I carefully examined his face and gave my conclusion: "Your cheekbones are ruddy and your eyes are like stars, indicating your career will gradually prosper. Judging by your age, you should be over thirty. From thirty-five to forty, you rely on your eyes for luck. With your phoenix eyes and high eyebrows, I won't say you'll own vast lands, but at least your family will be well-off, with no worries about food and clothing..." Despite the good words, "Heaven Rewards Diligence" seemed increasingly disappointed. Hearing "no worries about food and clothing," he couldn't help but smile bitterly, shaking his head to interrupt, showing his lunch to the camera—a plain steamed bun with preserved vegetables. "Streamer, you seem to have misjudged this time." 【Oi, the famous Daoist Master Fang Tang flipped over? What, ran out of scripts?】 【Actually, taking a step back... taking ten thousand steps back is pretty tiring...】 【Don't play abstract. Watching Fang Tang's stream for so long, this is the first time she's been inaccurate. There must be something strange!】 I ignored the netizens' doubts and continued: "Your face was originally very good, but that scar on your left eyebrow cuts through the Sun Horn. Coupled with the uneven height of your Sun and Moon Horns, it indicates your father should have passed away. And your chin is round but forehead narrow, meaning you left your hometown for study and work after growing up, unable to show filial piety at your parents' knees." A flash of pain passed through "Heaven Rewards Diligence's" eyes, and he spoke with some shame: "Sorry, streamer, I was rude to say you misjudged earlier. "I indeed left home young to study in Beijing, and stayed there to work and start a family after graduation. I brought my parents to Beijing to live for a while, but they were never accustomed to it, so I paid for them to build a house in our hometown. "After the house was built, I brought my wife and child back for a short stay. Unexpectedly, within half a year, my father... "I couldn't accept the blow of losing a close relative, living in a daze all day, and accidentally made a big mistake at work, getting fired. My wife, in anger, took the child back to her parents' home. I thought it would be good for everyone to separate and calm down, so I returned to my hometown." Several major hardships of middle age pressed on "Heaven Rewards Diligence" simultaneously, leaving him almost breathless. "Can you film the self-built house you mentioned?"
