Chapter 127: 127: The old ancestor is a lemon spirit Chapter 127: 127: The old ancestor is a lemon spirit Jiangli was puzzled, “If you can’t eat the grapes, you say the grapes are sour, just say that. Why mention being a ‘jealous lemon’?”
Xia Xin pondered for a moment and replied, “Well… it’s probably because lemons are inherently sour, so that’s why people say it. Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore, great ancestor. Haven’t I told you before? It’s best not to comment on the internet. Nowadays, these bloggers all have their own fans, just like devout pilgrims who can’t stand others saying anything bad about the people they like.”
Jiangli clicked his tongue, “You modern people are too hard to understand. I was just telling the truth. Her facial features really are quite bizarre.”
Xia Xin glanced at the video Jiangli was talking about.
The video featured a beauty vlogger teaching makeup. In Xia Xin’s view, the vlogger was indeed beautiful and quite attractive.
Moreover, Xia Xin looked closely and said, “Great ancestor, it seems she really didn’t use a beauty filter…”
Whether she used it after applying makeup, Xia Xin couldn’t tell.
But she definitely didn’t use it before makeup.
Acne scars and red rashes were all visible.
And today’s video keyword was about teaching people how to correct flawed skin.
The video before makeup was likely unfiltered.
Hearing this, Jiangli stroked his chin and said, “That proves her features are even more problematic. Lifeless eyes, redness at the bottom of the eyes, money papers hanging from her ears—it’s clearly a sign of impending death.”
The knife in Xia Xin’s hand nearly cut his own finger as he exclaimed, “Crap, great ancestor, you can’t just say that kind of stuff!”
Jiangli gave him a deep look, “Do you think I’m speaking carelessly?”
Xia Xin felt an unexplainable pressure and shook his head repeatedly, “How could that be?” He said with a sycophantic smile, “With your incredible abilities, great ancestor, you definitely aren’t speaking carelessly. There must be a problem with her features!”
Jiangli sniffed disdainfully and returned his gaze to the phone, “Her features really do have a problem. She’ll definitely die in the next two or three days at the latest.”
Xia Xin shivered inwardly and looked closely. He could only notice that the vlogger’s eyes indeed seemed wrong, like someone who was seriously ill, her gaze dull and listless.
Indeed, there was a deficiency in vigor and spirit.
The redness and abundant blood vessels at the bottom of the eyes were also noticeable.
All these were inauspicious signs.
However, one needs to consider all aspects together; looking at just one doesn’t mean much.
As for a darkened area between the eyebrows and money papers hanging from the ears, these were true tests of a Xuanmen person’s Cultivation Base.
The test is of the initial flash of Spiritual Light and the feeling you get from the first glance; staring too long actually dulls the perception.
Thus, Jiangli’s initial reaction should be accurate.
Despite knowing these, Xia Xin was still somewhat confused, “Great ancestor, what does ‘money papers hanging from the ears’ mean? I don’t see it.”
“What could you possibly see with your level of cultivation base?” Jiangli said with immense contempt.
He shouldn’t have asked.
Jiangli explained, “Having ‘money papers hanging from the ears’ is just a way of describing it. At first glance, if we see money papers hanging from someone’s ears or paper shoes on their feet, it means that person is going to die because these are items that appear with the deceased. If at first glance, you see their head and feet reversed, that also indicates their impending death.”
Xia Xin seemed to understand but not quite.
Jiangli glanced at him, “However, the Taoist must have told you about this, right? It’s all about the Spiritual Light of the eyes and the first moment’s reaction. The longer you stare, the less accurate it becomes. That’s why people always say in Xuanmen that those born with Yin Yang Eyes are more suited for the Xuanmen, because their eyes are more perceptive.”
Xia Xin responded with an ‘oh’ and said somewhat dejectedly, “But I don’t have Yin Yang Eyes…”
