Looking at the simple business card, Xiao Yefeng carefully placed it in his bag after receiving it. Then he said, "Old Master Mei, I—" 0
 
"It doesn't matter. If it weren't for the fact that I have urgent matters to attend to, I would definitely invite you over for a meal!" At this point, Mei Yulou's eyes were filled with concern, occasionally glancing at the Silver Medical Case in his hands. 0
 
Seeing Mei Yulou's expression, Xiao Yefeng furrowed his brows and continued, "Old Master Mei, I will always remember your help today. However, it seems that I can still assist you a bit!" 0
 
"Oh?" Mei Yulou looked at Xiao Yefeng with confusion. 0
 
"Old Master, having lived in Huaxia for so long, do you believe in fate?" Xiao Yefeng asked Mei Yulou. 0
 
However, this statement was somewhat redundant; anyone who had cultivated Mingjing in Huaxia would believe in fate, let alone someone like Mei Yulou who had already developed Inner Force. 0
 
Sure enough, Xiao Yefeng's words startled Mei Yulou. He then looked at Xiao Yefeng thoughtfully and said, "Could it be that you can see Fate?" 0
 
At this moment, Mei Yulou was indeed puzzled. Over the years, while many people in Huaxia had stopped believing in fate, there were still a significant number who did. Mei Yulou was one of them; he not only believed in fate but also firmly believed in Feng Shui. Otherwise, he wouldn't have traveled to the remote city of Tu'an to seek out a renowned Metaphysics Master. 0
 
Under normal circumstances, Mei Yulou wouldn't believe that a mere child of twenty could possess knowledge of metaphysics. However, having traveled to Tu'an to find a master of great renown and obtained a Divination Text that stated: "The True Dragon Is Trapped in a Cage," "The Phoenix Descends at the Wutong Tree," "Family Grievances Require a Traveler," and "Soaring Upward with the Wind, Spreading Wings and Feathers," he had been compelled to reconsider. 0
 
Though these phrases seemed straightforward, the meanings behind them were ever-changing. Especially after receiving the items from the suitcase six months ago, everything had changed for Mei Yulou, leaving him sleepless for nights on end. This time he finally managed to meet with the master and brought along his precious items to Tu'an. 0
 
Little did he expect that right after meeting the master and receiving the Divination Text, he would be shown the door without even being asked for the customary fee of a hundred gold pieces per divination. This left Mei Yulou feeling quite frustrated before boarding his flight. 0
 
However, upon discovering Xiao Yefeng's injury and feeling an overwhelming urge to help as a healer, after performing acupuncture on Xiao Yefeng, he found that his mood seemed to lighten considerably. This pleasant feeling led him to attribute his newfound good spirits to the recently met Xiao Yefeng; thus he gifted the rarely shown business card to him. 0
 
Moreover, after hearing Xiao Yefeng mention fate and recalling his previous discoveries about him, Mei Yulou immediately regarded Xiao Yefeng as someone with some ability but lacking refinement—a person being pursued by others. 0
 
"Old Master Mei should be able to tell that I don't possess as profound powers as you do; how could I possibly see Fate?" Xiao Yefeng said. 0
 
 
"It is said that there are no distinctions in learning; the accomplished are our teachers. In the vast land of China, many talented individuals emerge. It is evident that you rarely return home; otherwise, you would surely know the name of a young master," Mei Yulou said with a smile. 0
 
"Oh! If it’s not too much trouble, I would love to hear more!" Xiao Yefeng replied curiously. 0
 
In truth, due to his previous profession, Xiao Yefeng was quite knowledgeable about some extraordinary individuals in China and even around the world. However, two years in prison had left gaps in his information. At least regarding the young master mentioned by Mei Yulou, Xiao Yefeng had no recollection whatsoever. 0
 
"His name is Lu Zhan, known as the Young Master in China. He excels in divination and Feng Shui," Mei Yulou said, his eyes filled with admiration as he spoke of Lu Zhan. To earn such respect from this Master of Hidden Strength, Lu Zhan must possess remarkable abilities. 0
 
However, as the saying goes, "rivals are often colleagues." Xiao Yefeng had crossed paths with Mei Yulou in acupuncture. He believed he could not surpass Mei Yulou's understanding of acupuncture due to his inferior internal strength. Yet when it came to Feng Shui, Xiao Yefeng was confident he could hold his own. 0
 
Taking advantage of the time before the plane landed, Xiao Yefeng requested a piece of white paper from a flight attendant and then said, "Old Master Mei, do you recognize divination?" 0
 
"Of course!" With that, Mei Yulou took the paper and almost instinctively wrote a Chinese character. 0
 
"Cold!" Looking at Mei Yulou's writing, Xiao Yefeng exclaimed in surprise. 0
 
"What did you ask?" Xiao Yefeng inquired. 0
 
"I asked about fortune and calamity!" After writing, Mei Yulou relaxed back into his seat. 0
 
In truth, upon meeting Mei Yulou, Xiao Yefeng felt little emotion. However, the events leading up to this moment made him sense a subtle connection between himself and Mei Yulou during this journey—a feeling that seemed to stem from fate or destiny. 0
 
Gazing at the character "cold" written by Mei Yulou, Xiao Yefeng furrowed his brow and then said, "Old Master asked about fortune and calamity. Given your status and strength, while I am unsure of your financial situation, it is clear you do not lack money. Thus, your inquiry about fortune must be for your family. The character 'cold' has a cover above and a well below; one person has two hearts. To be frank, I dare say you have two sons at home, and your family rose from humble beginnings." 0
 
Unlike most who focus intently on their counterpart during divination, Xiao Yefeng merely looked at the characters on the paper. Just as he finished speaking these two sentences, Mei Yulou's suitcase trembled slightly in his hands. It was common knowledge throughout China that Mei Yulou had two sons; thus, Xiao Yefeng's initial words did not surprise him. However, the last statement about rising from humble beginnings truly made Mei Yulou take notice of Xiao Yefeng's divination skills. 0
 
 
Mei Yulou originally thought that Xiao Yefeng was just joking, but the mention of starting from a well brought back memories of his youth. Indeed, at the same age as Xiao Yefeng now, Mei Yulou had already mastered the ancestral Divine Needle Seven Techniques. In no time, Mei Yulou's name became renowned throughout China. However, during a challenge, he was easily crushed by a Wandering Doctor in his most proud area of Acupuncture. 0
 
After losing the contest, the young and arrogant Mei Yulou broke the Silver Needle that had been passed down for generations. According to the wager, he donated all his savings, leaving not a single penny behind, and he understood that he was bound by an agreement not to practice medicine for a year. 0
 
Thus, Mei Yulou lost the medical skills he took pride in and instantly became an ordinary person who knew nothing—worse than an ordinary person, as they could still work hard to earn a living. Without his medical skills and Silver Needle, he felt like he was nothing. 0
 
With no money and unwilling to lose face, Mei Yulou fled to another place. Eventually, he collapsed on an abandoned hillside. Cold and hungry, he was awakened by the chilling night wind. However, in his desperation, he accidentally fell into a dry well. 0
 
To his surprise, the Wandering Doctor who had defeated him was at the bottom of that well. It turned out that this dry well connected to a muddy pit below the hillside. The Wandering Doctor rescued Mei Yulou after he fell. Faced with the Wandering Doctor right in front of him and the food laid out before him, Mei Yulou ultimately set aside his pride and admitted his mistakes. 0
 
This challenge stemmed from Mei Yulou's carelessness. In his youthful arrogance, he had treated a mother who came seeking help without asking about her condition first. In his negligence, he almost caused her to lose her unborn child due to a mistake with one needle. Although Mei Yulou acted quickly to protect them and both mother and child were safe in the end, he blamed the mother for not being clear about her situation. 0
 
This angered the Wandering Doctor nearby and led to their agreement and subsequent challenge. Strangely enough, after admitting his mistakes, Mei Yulou lived peacefully for decades. He smoothly entered Inner Force after practicing Mingjing for a lifetime and married and had children—all because of that moment of acknowledgment in the well. This was something Mei Yulou had never mentioned before; even his wife did not know about it. Now that Xiao Yefeng brought it up, it startled him and made him serious. 0
 
"As for the second question regarding disaster, this can be seen from its literal meaning; the old man has been troubled by something lately. The 'cold' word likely comes from this matter. As for disaster, I cannot speak fully about it; however, fortune and misfortune are intertwined and will eventually be resolved." 0
 
"Then please enlighten me!" At this moment, Mei Yulou respectfully bowed with his hands clasped together. Xiao Yefeng's abilities had earned Mei Yulou's recognition; addressing him as "sir" was a sign of respect for the Geomancer. 0
 
"A thousand-year Treasure lies deep in obscurity; opportunities should not be forced. Spiritual treasures will reveal their solutions when fate aligns; let the snow drift gracefully welcome your door." 0
