Chapter 682: Chapter 682: Kneel Down and Call Father!
The first strand of mortal willpower that Huang Xiaolong collected from the mortal world ca from this beautiful girl “Qinxue”.
Of course, a single strand of mortal willpower has limited applications. If Huang Xiaolong had the contributions of thousands or tens of thousands of people, his jade pendant could evolve into a super magic artifact, capable of unleashing incredible power.
Now Qinxue carefully placed three sticks of incense into the censer, her hands pressed together in prayer.
Suddenly, Huang Xiaolong saw images resembling a mirage appearing in the satin-like smoke above Qinxue’s head!
In these images, a moon-white Maserati was speeding along a mountain road. Ahead, the road branched into two routes, with the one on the right flanked by a mountainside.
Without any signs of slowing down, the Maserati took the right route.
...
Suddenly!
Boom~~~
A few large rocks tumbled down from the mountainside!
Landslide!
One of the boulders landed in the middle of the road, blocking the Maserati. Monts later, another boulder smashed on top of the car, flattening it in an instant!
In the car’s front seats were a man and a woman. The man was Mu Yunfan, and the woman was Qinxue. Both were squashed into unrecognizable forms!
“Eh…” Huang Xiaolong’s heart stirred.
What Huang Xiaolong saw was not an illusion.
Once the temple’s divinity was activated, if believers ca to offer incense and pray earnestly, as the temple’s master, Huang Xiaolong could foresee their fortunes and misfortunes for the next three days without resorting to any magic artifacts!
‘Heh~~~ You’re about to get into a car accident today. Your body will be shattered into pieces, how tragic… Fortunately, you’re clever. You ca here to offer incense and you’re sincere…’ Huang Xiaolong watched Qinxue, who was as beautiful as a jade sculpture and graceful as a lotus flower. It’s such a pity that such a gorgeous girl has to die, he thought.
“Ahem~~~” Huang Xiaolong cleared his throat, “Miss.”
“Hm?” Qinxue raised her head to look at Huang Xiaolong.
“I need to tell you sothing. You’d better listen carefully,” Huang Xiaolong said calmly.
“I’m all ears, the temple keeper,” Surrounded by the pleasant aroma of incense, Qinxue looked at Huang Xiaolong, finding the seemingly nonchalant young man possessing an inexplicable master’s deanor.
“After you leave, if you plan on driving sowhere, bear in mind that when you encounter a fork in the road, always take the left route, never the right one. Rember, rember.”
“But…why? Can you explain more clearly?” Qinxue asked, furrowing her brows.
“Hahaha~~ Secrets of heaven must not be revealed. That’s all I can say, you need to figure it out!” Huang Xiaolong replied with a laugh.
Qinxue stood up, puzzled, and took her leave.
“Fraud! I know you’re a fraud! You’ll pay for this, I’ll have soone investigate you!” Mu Yunfan threatened Huang Xiaolong in a cold voice before leaving resentfully.
After the pair had left, Miao Erfang laughed and said, “Master Long, you were quite impressive just now. What did you an when you told them to take the left route on the mountain and not to take the right one?”
“If they take the right route, they’ll get into a car accident. They’ll be killed.” Huang Xiaolong laughed.
“Um~~~ But… why didn’t you tell them that explicitly? If they didn’t pay much attention to your vague warning, things could turn disastrous,” Zhou Mi asked, looking worried. She, however, believed in Huang Xiaolong’s words without a doubt.
“Such things can’t be said directly. Cause and effect have their own laws. Giving a hint to that beauty is a great blessing for her,” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “If she doesn’t heed my words and doesn’t act according to my instructions, resulting in her unforeseen death, it only ans that it was her fate, and I couldn’t have saved her.”
“Huang, did you manage to gather the so-called mortal willpower? According to what you’ve said, the smoke from the incense rising straight up represents the piety of the believers. The smoke just now indeed acted strangely, it didn’t dissipate in the wind but extended beyond the main hall. It’s quite magical,” Xia Ying asked curiously.
“Heh, I’ve only gathered a slight amount. I still need many more believers. However, my temple can grant any wishes and surely it will have a good reputation. There will be plenty of believers, there’s no need to worry, hahaha!” Huang Xiaolong laughed, “Alright, co with now. I’ll solve the water problem at the temple.”
“Solve the water problem? Master Long, are we going to find a mountain spring? Yay! This feels like a wilderness survival adventure!” Zhou Mi said excitedly.
But Xia Ying shook her head, “Huang, I’ve searched in the nearby mountains for wild vegetables and fruits this morning, but I couldn’t find any water source. Not even a small spring.”
“Follow , the mountain man has an ingenious plan!” Huang Xiaolong laughed.
They didn’t bring any tools and just headed outside the temple.
Once they ca out, there were a few more cars on the grass outside.
There were sedans, vans, and even a truck.
A group of people holding maps got out of the cars and started discussing. They seed to be engineers or sothing.
“Master Long, have these people also co to offer incense?” Miao Erfang asked curiously.
“Er~~ I don’t know. But it doesn’t look like it,” Huang Xiaolong laughed.
Then he heard their conversation. It turned out that these people were from a local bottled water company in Dong’an city. They were planning to find a sweet mountain spring in the suburban mountains to produce a brand of mineral water, just like Farr’s Spring － “We don’t produce water; we’re only the carriers of nature.”
A short and chubby man shook his head, “We have explored this area before. Although there are mountains and trees, and the natural scenery is beautiful, there are no water sources.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mi laughed, “Who says there’s no water source? We’re about to search for one nearby.”
The group looked up and seed impressed by the majestic temple.
But the short and chubby man scoffed, “Young lady, don’t make baseless claims. We have already explored this several miles radius area and found no water sources. Our team is composed of several excellent geologists. Frankly, even if you drill a well, you won’t find water.”
“Humph~~ If Master Long says there’s water, then there must be,” Zhou Mi retorted disdainfully, “All your ‘expert’ professors are nothing compared to a single word from Master Long.”
“Young lady, what are you talking about? Master Long?” The group of geologists seed offended.
“Hehe, yes, there is a water source here,” Huang Xiaolong smiled. He tapped the ground with his foot and said, “Look, there’s a water source here.”
The place Huang Xiaolong was stepping on was a piece of bluestone step.
“Hahahaha~~~~~hahahaha~~~~~~~” the group of geologists burst out laughing as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world.
“Young man, do you understand geology at all? Can there be water here?” The short and chubby man mocked, “Let put it this way, if the place you’re stepping on has water, I’ll kneel down and call you my father today!”
