Chapter: 1712

At the same time, he couldn't help but ponder the old man's previous words.

It appears that the predicament at Dragon's Swamp had already formed when he got married to Shouxun in Jinling.

The old man just said it was because he had become a household by the riverbank, and Jinling is located on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which coincides with this.

Moreover, one's fate has been bumpy from the very beginning, until last spring when Tang Si Hai's sudden appearance brought a turning point to oneself.

However, the greatest stroke of luck in life is not being found by the Ye family again, but rather accidentally obtaining the "Nine Heavens Scripture" at that time, which was also last spring.

As a result, it can be seen that the entire sequence of events has its cause and effect. First, I was stuck in Dragon Swamp, which led to the entire Ye family being affected by it as well.

Then, the Ye family found this old man and tried to get him to help resolve the trouble.

The old man divined for himself and saw that there was a stroke of luck in the east that could add 10 years to his life. So he didn't hesitate to return to his homeland at any cost to help the Ye family, while also waiting for his own share of good fortune.

He spent four years finding the Ye Ling Mountain and setting up a feng shui array there, which broke down the constraints of being stuck in Dragon Swamp, allowing the Ye family to overcome their crisis. As for myself, I benefited greatly from it as well.

And I've been waiting for my own turn, because I am the door of life that opens in the divination chart.

Thinking about this, Ye Chen slightly bowed towards the old man: "Old master, you have worked so hard on all these things, and your descendant has indeed gained a lot! Please accept my gratitude!"

The old man hurriedly stepped forward to block him, with an extremely humble attitude, saying: "I am unworthy of such grandeur, I dare not receive it from you!"

Ye Chen persisted: "You should! If it weren't for you, I might still be stuck in the shallows!"

The old man shook his head: "In a person's character, the dragon pattern is the highest and most supreme existence, so being stuck in the shallows is not a dead end, but rather a predicament. The shallows can confine the dragon, but it cannot kill the dragon. Therefore, breaking free from this predicament is just a matter of time. If I didn't come to break this cycle, someone else would have."

He then looked at Ye Chen with a sentimental tone: "The heavens know good and evil, and the law of karma will surely give back to him who breaks your predicament. No matter who it is, it's a tremendous merit."

Subsequently, the old man glanced at Ye Chen, smiling slightly: "According to the chart, if I help you get out of this predicament, you might regain ten years of yang life. Perhaps during these ten years, the judge of hell has already added me to the register of the living and the dead! So, below still needs to thank you."

Ye Chen smiled faintly: "Old Master, I believe in feng shui, fate, and the way of heaven, but not in ghosts and the afterlife. There won't be a judge of hell or any register of the living and the dead in this world."

The old man nodded without expression, smiling: "Oh, this is the mystery of heaven, which I cannot penetrate. To be honest, I don't even know what the door of life in the chart means."

Ye Chen nodded slightly: "Old Master, if you helped me, then I should help you too. You take this elixir and increase your yang life by ten years; it's not a problem."

The old man was taken aback, as if struck by lightning, staring at Ye Chen before looking at the elixir in his hand, exclaiming: "What is this?"

The old man nodded vigorously, though he had no idea what the Revival Elixir was about, but he was still thrilled and nodded repeatedly.

Next, he suddenly dropped his staff and knelt down tremblingly on the ground, holding up both hands towards the heavens.

Ye Chen placed the Revival Elixir in his hand and then helped him to his feet, saying, "Mr. Old Master, why don't you take it now? Given your age, there shouldn't be any noticeable effects from outside, but the real efficacy should be felt by someone with great wisdom like yourself."

The old man was incredibly grateful and blurted out, "Thank you, Young Master Ye!"

After that, he no longer hesitated and put the Revival Elixir into his mouth. JrNovels.com
