Chapter 173 Sowing discord
"Open your Qi-observing Dharma Eye."

Li Daoxuan muttered to himself, and his vision suddenly changed.

He looked above the old village chief's head and saw a wisp of black smoke rising.

The black smoke was very thin, and it was constantly entangled with a ray of golden light. The two were fighting each other, and the ray of golden light would grind away the rising black smoke.

"Golden light of merit?" Li Daoxuan observed the aura above the old village chief's head and unexpectedly discovered that the old village chief could actually be protected by the golden light of merit. This was the first time he had seen such a sight.

There are not many good people in the world, and most ordinary people are neither good nor evil.

There are even fewer good people who can do good deeds and accumulate merits. Li Daoxuan has seen so many people, but has only come into contact with a few of them.

And those who are blessed with the golden light of merit and virtue are even rarer.

If one wants to be protected by the golden light of merit like the old village chief, one must probably do good deeds every day for decades to get even a little bit.

Li Daoxuan never thought that the old village chief could actually have the golden light of merit to protect his body.

He did not observe the aura of others, and the number of people he observed the aura of in a day was limited. He had just thought of something, so he opened his Dharma Eyes to observe the fortune of the old village chief. He did not expect that the old village chief had merits and golden light protecting his body, so this evil aura did not affect him.

"Grandpa Cheng is really a kind man, but why is Grandpa Cheng surrounded by black smoke? Is there some unlucky karma?" Li Daoxuan sighed, and then doubts arose in his heart.

The people from Li Changde's family had already carried the body away, and the onlookers were still chatting under the locust tree.

He looked towards the edge of the pond and was about to put away his magic eyes when he saw Li Laosan and Li Yanming coming towards him.

It was not a big deal, but he was startled by the bright red blood mist above Li Laosan's head, and a look of surprise appeared on his originally calm face.

Seeing Li Daoxuan staring at his head in surprise, Li Laosan was also confused for a moment. He touched his head unconsciously and felt puzzled: "Third Young Master, is there something on my head?"

"No, nothing." Li Daoxuan retracted his Observation Eyes and suppressed his emotions. He just stared at Li Laosan and took a deep breath and asked, "Uncle San, have you been to any unknown place today?"

"An ominous place? I haven't been there." Li Laosan thought about it, recalled the places he had been to, and couldn't think of what the so-called ominous place was, so he shook his head and answered.

"Have you ever met any strange people? Or done anything unusual?" Li Daoxuan asked again.

"That's not the case either." Li Laosan was getting more and more confused. He scratched his head and thought hard for a while before continuing. "Third Young Master, why are you asking these strange questions?"

"You may encounter a bloody disaster in the near future." Li Daoxuan's words made Li Laosan stunned for a moment.

The third young master of the Li family in front of him grew up in Maoshan since he was a child. Li Laosan didn't know what he had learned over the years, but his own son was the third young master's servant and was always by his side. This time when he came back to visit, he admired the third young master even more in front of his parents.

How could I not be nervous when the Third Young Master suddenly said this to me?

"Third, Third Young Master. Please don't scare me." Li Laosan said in panic.

"Young Master, is it true that my father is in danger of a bloody disaster?!" Li Yanming was also frightened by Li Daoxuan's words. He had only followed Li Daoxuan for a short time, but he knew a thing or two about the Third Young Master's abilities and even admired him. He knew in his heart that although the Third Young Master was not much older than himself and looked like a child like himself, his abilities were no worse than those Taoists who had practiced for decades. His calculation skills were not amazing, but they were accurate enough.

So when Li Daoxuan said this, Li Yanming's heartbeat slowed down a beat, and then he looked at Li Daoxuan nervously, trying to learn something from him.

"I just observed your father's complexion and fortune, and there are bad omens. If I'm not mistaken, your father will have a bloody disaster in the near future. So you must pay attention and be careful in your daily life." Li Daoxuan said earnestly. Seeing Li Yanming's face suddenly turned pale, he felt a little uncomfortable.

The truth is often not pleasant to hear, and no one wants their loved ones to be in danger of their lives.

However, he did not comfort Li Yanming, because temporary comfort is futile for some things.

He looked at Li Laosan and continued, "Uncle San, please tell me your birth date and I will go back and tell you a fortune. Although you are haunted by evil spirits, there may be a way out. Maybe there are some ways to help you avoid this disaster."

"Okay, okay, I'll tell the Third Young Master your birth date and time right away." After hearing what Li Daoxuan said, Li Laosan immediately told him his birth date and time. He was not like those rich masters in Jinling City who did not have so many entangled details. What's more, the Third Young Master had already said that he might be in danger of his life.

Then, according to Li Daoxuan's request, he left a lock of his hair. Li Daoxuan was about to leave with Li Laosan's hair, but after a few steps, Li Yanming gently pulled his sleeve.

"Master, will my father really be okay? Master, you must think of a way to save my father." Li Yanming looked at Li Daoxuan expectantly, his words full of pleading emotions. "As long as you save my father, I will repay you by working like a cow or a horse."

"Who needs you to work like a cow or a horse? I don't have any cows or horses to sit on, right?" Li Daoxuan scolded with a smile, and then touched Li Yanming's head. "Go back first, I will help your father think of a solution."

"Master, thank you! Thank you, Master!" Li Yanming expressed his gratitude repeatedly, then trotted to catch up with Li Laosan who was walking away.

After seeing the father and son walk away, the smile on Li Daoxuan's face faded.

He looked at the handful of hair in his hand, and his thoughts became darker.

"Why is it Uncle San?"

Li Daoxuan muttered to himself as he returned to the Li family's old house.

As soon as he stepped over the threshold, he saw Gong Youwei sitting in the hall in a daze, with her hands on her chin, staring dully through the window at the clouds floating in the sky.

Even though Li Daoxuan had walked in front of her, she remained motionless. There was no expression in her pair of large eyes, which were clearly black and white, as if her mind was wandering somewhere far away.

"Hey?" Li Daoxuan stretched out his hand, waved it in front of Gong Youwei's sight, and spoke to wake her up.

Gong Youwei gradually came back to her senses, pursed her lips slightly, and turned her gaze towards him.

"What's wrong?" Li Daoxuan asked curiously when he saw Gong Youwei looked unhappy.

"I miss home a little." Gong Youwei said softly.

"There's no one else in your home except you, so why do you suddenly miss home?" Li Daoxuan was surprised by the change in the rabbit spirit. He was a cheerful spirit before, so why did he suddenly become sentimental?

"Did someone say something to you?"

"Yeah." Gong Youwei nodded and responded with a frustrated look, then puffed her cheeks and said, "The girl here asked me where I came from and where my parents were. I told her that my parents were dead and that I lived in a cave. Then she said that I was not worthy of you and could not live with you. I was unhappy."

"Which maid is gossiping?" Li Daoxuan felt a little annoyed and felt that the people in this old house were really talkative.

He said something to the little rabbit for no reason. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel even more distressed for Gong Youwei.

Although this little rabbit does not understand many common senses of the world, she is a hundred-year-old fairy after all, and she still understands some human emotions and some social conventions.

Saying such things to her face was obviously intended to sow discord.

Li Daoxuan asked Gong Youwei who said this, Gong Youwei shook her head: "I don't know, it was a woman who just came in, not a maid. She said she wanted to find you, and when she saw you were not there, she spoke to me."

"Don't believe that person's nonsense. I just like to raise a rabbit." Li Daoxuan said seriously. "In the future, I will take you to many places and see the sea together."

"really?"

"Really." He nodded affirmatively.

After comforting Gong Youwei, Li Daoxuan went to look for Aunt Sun.

The only women in this courtyard were the maids, Aunt Sun and Gong Youwei. If it was Aunt Sun, Gong Youwei would recognize her.

Unless an outsider comes.

He wanted to know who had been here today, and who had entered the hall and dared to say such divisive words.
