Chapter 242: Probably around 40 years old
Yu Qingtang rolled for a distance like a baby bear and happened to hit a soft obstacle and stopped.
The man with shoe prints on his fingers cried out in bad luck. He was not the only one being tailed today, but he was the only one who was discovered twice.
He will definitely be punished when he returns. Oh my God, how could this happen!
When Cheng Wuyang rushed over, he was silent when he saw the familiar, painful face.
Yu Qingtang realized that he had bumped into someone. He tried to get up and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
When Yu Qingtang saw the man's attire, he suddenly didn't know whether he should continue talking.
"Are you OK."
A young, unfamiliar voice said, "I'm sorry, I ran too fast. Are you okay?"
Yu Qingtang turned around and looked at the person who suddenly ran out from the corner and bumped into him.
A very handsome young man, with a handsome face and an elegant temperament that is not in line with this era.
Yu Qingtang stared at it in a daze.
"Comrade, are you okay?"
The jade-like, white and slender fingers swayed in front of his eyes, and Yu Qingtang subconsciously grabbed them.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Cheng Wuyang coughed heavily several times.
Yu Qingtang came back to his senses, let go of his hand, and smiled embarrassedly.
"Comrade, where are you going?"
"My name is Bae Joo Hyun, and I'm here to see you."
The young man looked at Yu Qingtang and smiled, and Cheng Wuyang quickly pushed Yu Qingtang behind him.
"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to hurt her."
The gentle smile on Bae Joo-hyun's face seemed to be embedded in it, but it was surprisingly not disgusting.
"My master used to be a Taoist priest, and I came here with him."
Cheng Wuyang still stood vigilantly in front of Yu Qingtang.
Yu Qingtang poked his head out from behind him: "Why are you looking for me?"
"Trying to find my way home through you."
"???"
A question mark could no longer express her doubts.
Seeing her doubts, Bae Joo-hyun is not the kind of person who likes to keep people in suspense.
"The gray-robed Taoist you met before was my master's junior apprentice. When my master was fighting, a shrapnel got stuck in his brain. He forgot some things, but he still had his abilities. He figured out that he still had a junior apprentice still alive, and he also figured out that through you he could find his junior apprentice and eventually find his way home."
Yu Qingtang's mouth opened wide when he heard this.
"Is your master called Xiao Qingxuan?"
Pei Zhuxuan nodded: "My master's name is indeed Qingxuan."
That would match her dream.
Yu Qingtang fell into a nightmare after being knocked unconscious by the gray-robed Taoist priest. In the dream, she possessed a young man.
After being kicked out of the house by his family, he went to a Taoist temple where there were two Taoist priests, one old and one young. The younger one was named Qingxuan and he was his senior brother.
Yu Qingtang had been wondering from the beginning whether this dream was the gray-robed Taoist's past. Now he had confirmed from this person that his master was the young Taoist Qingxuan in his dream, thus confirming his initial guess.
"You said you could find him through me?"
Pei Zhuxuan shook her head: "I thought so at first, but after meeting you, I know it's not true."
"what?"
"After the master's brain injury, he still has the ability, but he still makes mistakes occasionally."
The smile on Bae Joo-hyun's face faded a little.
Yu Qingtang inexplicably felt that he was a little sad.
This Bae Joo-hyun and his master must have a very good relationship.
Pei Zhuxuan took out five copper coins and shook them in his hand, and said to Yu Qingtang: "The one who can help my master find his junior brother is not you, but the people around you."
"She/he is right here."
Bae Joo-hyun opened her palm, placed five copper coins on it, and used her other hand to gently fiddle with the position of the copper coins.
"The true opportunity is hidden by a divine secret, and the final result can only be attributed to you."
The more Yu Qingtang listened, the more confused she became. She subconsciously looked at Cheng Wuyang.
Is what he said true?
Cheng Wuyang didn't expect things to become more and more bizarre, so he nodded.
Not lying.
Yu Qingtang crossed his arms and looked at the young man who was obsessed with fortune-telling.
It’s no wonder, his ethereal temperament, coupled with the action of using coins to tell fortunes, makes him look more and more like a charlatan.
The people lying on the ground thought the same thing.
There were two people standing close to each other, communicating with each other.
"Is this really the person hired by the higher-ups? He looks like a liar."
"How should I know? Anyway, the people above said not to bother with him."
"This is promoting feudal superstition."
"We are not from the Revolutionary Committee. We don't care whether he is promoting feudal superstition or not. Besides, we have been doing missions for so many years and have seen all kinds of weird things."
"..."
Yu Qingtang and Cheng Wuyang stood there watching Pei Zhuxuan fiddling with the coin faster and faster until he spat out a mouthful of blood on his hand.
Yu Qingtang was startled: "Ah...are you okay?"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Cheng Wuyang took out the toilet paper he carried with him and handed it to Yu Qingtang before he could.
"Thank you."
Bae Joo-hyun took it and carefully wiped the blood off her lips and hands.
He raised his head and said to Yu Qingtang, "I can't predict who the opportunity will lead to, but I can be sure that she/he is a person with great luck."
Hearing him say this, Yu Qingtang thought of Jiang Yuanyuan first.
Yu Qingtang was not the kind of person who did not show her emotions. Pei Zhuxuan keenly noticed her micro-expression and said with a smile: "It seems that you already have the answer."
Yu Qingtang: ...
Suddenly I felt that his smile was so ugly.

"How are you going to find the Taoist priest in gray robes through her?"
"Qing Jie."
"Ok?"
"The Taoist priest in gray robe you mentioned, his Taoist name is Qing Jie."
Yu Qingtang responded: "Okay, then how do you find Taoist Qingjie through that person with great luck you mentioned?"
Bae Joo-hyun: "Just sit back and wait."
Does this mean that Taoist Qingjie will take the initiative to find people with great luck, and they can catch him just by staying beside the person with great luck?
Yu Qingtang: "I think I understand what you mean, but..."
Yu Qingtang took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Can you explain it a little more clearly, so that we don't misunderstand and cause misunderstandings."
Pei Zhuxuan smiled and nodded: "Okay, now can you tell me who that person with great luck is?"
As long as he asked around in the brigade, he could find Jiang Yuanyuan.
Yu Qingtang said directly: "Come with me."
Since we knew that Taoist Qingjie would come to capture Jiang Yuanyuan, of course we would quickly send an expert to protect her.
On the way, Yu Qingtang asked Pei Zhuxuan: "Why does Taoist Qingjie want to capture the person with great luck?"
Pei Zhuxuan asked back: "Do you know how old he is this year?"
Yu Qingtang recalled how Taoist Qingjie looked when he saw him before.
"Although his hair and clothes are all white, judging by his face, he should be around 40 years old."
