The live fortune telling is so accurate that the whole network is waiting to watch.

At this moment, the lake has returned to calm.

A full moon is reflected in the water, quiet and beautiful.

Bai Jun stood by the lake and looked left and right, but couldn't see anything wrong. He couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"Did I see it wrong? Or did the monster hide quietly for fear of being discovered?"

At this moment, a golden-red fish tail suddenly emerged from the water and fell heavily onto the water surface. The bright moonlight instantly turned into pieces of gold.

Huge splashes of water rose into the air like a water column, splashing all over Bai Jun's body.

Bai Jun was so scared that he fell down on the shore. Just as he was about to scream, he saw Zhang Xuexue popping her head out of the water and laughing.

Amid the rippling water and fleeting shadows, her long, shiny black hair was wet and spread out, half sinking and half floating on the water, like unruly water plants.

Drops of water were sliding down her bright and beautiful cheeks, falling on her collarbone, adding a bit of charm.

Bai Jun was stunned for a moment, but Zhang Xuexue's face darkened: "You peeked at me taking a bath?"

Bai Jun was horrified and explained hastily: "I heard some noise here and thought it was a monster coming out... Well, it really is a monster... Zhang Xuexue, you are quite pretty, even more beautiful than the imperial concubine emerging from the bath on TV..."

Zhang Xuexue was about to change her anger into joy when she heard him praise her, but then she heard Bai Jun add without knowing the consequences: "She just suddenly emerged from the water in the middle of the night with her hair disheveled. I almost thought she was a female ghost."

Zhang Xuexue's face suddenly changed, and she swung her lower body with force, creating another huge wave that directly knocked Bai Jun over.

Bai Jun got up, wiped the water off his face, and said angrily: "Zhang Xuexue, a gentleman should talk, not fight!"

Zhang Xuexue sneered: "I'm not a gentleman. Besides, I moved my tail, not my hands."

After saying that, she dived into the water again and disappeared.

"Zhang Xuexue, Zhang Xuexue!" Bai Jun lay on the shore and called her, "Okay, I'm sorry! I apologize to you, don't be angry. How about we come out and talk? I've been holding it in for half a month - Lao Qiu flirts with his wife every day and doesn't tolerate me at all. You don't know how I got through the past half month!"

With a "splash", Zhang Xuexue emerged from the water again.

Her upper body is still in human form, wearing a two-piece swimsuit, and her lower body is shaped like a fish tail, just like the mermaid in fairy tales.

In other words, she is a mermaid.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" She leaned against the shore, paddling the water casually with her tail.

"Chat... A-choo! A-choo!"

The temperature in the mountains was very low at night, and Bai Jun was soaked all over. He sneezed several times when the cold wind blew.

Zhang Xuexue waved her hand gently, a flash of light passed by, and Bai Jun's clothes were dried. He felt warm all over and not cold at all.

Bai Jun was surprised and sad at the same time: "Hey, why can't I practice?"

Zhang Xuexue said: "It's good to be a human. Many monsters have gone through untold hardships but still cannot become human. What's more, you are the son of a wealthy family. Your life is enough to make the world envious."

Bai Jun laughed and said, "That's right, one should not be too greedy."

"Zhang Xuexue, I have a few questions that I am curious about. Can you help me solve them while no one is around?"

"what is the problem?"

"I heard that you can't touch water, because your true form will be revealed if you touch water?"

"Is this what you are wondering?" Zhang Xuexue glanced at him.

"Yeah! I've been wondering for a long time! If you can't touch water, how do you wash your face? And sweat? And drink water?"

"So if you sweat a drop, you snap into a fish? If you drink a sip of water, you snap into a fish again?"

"When you are on set filming, what should you do if you feel hot? What should you do if you sweat?"

"And washing your face...you're not going to wash your face, are you?"

"Bai Jun!!!"

"Why are you mad? Just chat casually. If you don't want to talk, then don't say it! Ahhhh, the fish monster killed someone!"

Although Zhang Xuexue beat Bai Jun up, she still helped him solve his doubts after she felt relieved.

"I usually wash my face and drink a small amount of water, so it doesn't affect me. It's okay to get caught in a little rain occasionally, but it won't work if it's a heavy rainstorm. If you get soaked, your true colors will show."

The koi's big tail sometimes floats on the water, and sometimes creates circles of ripples.

"But I won't be afraid anymore! My cultivation has improved, and I can maintain my human body even when swimming in the water. But when I'm in the water, I still prefer the body of a fish. It's more comfortable to swim with a big tail."

Bai Jun was also happy for her after hearing this: "That's good, we don't have to worry about being exposed in the future. By the way, Lao Qiu said tonight that he would take his wife to the county town to play tomorrow. Do you want to go?"

Zhang Xuexue said, "Master Yu only agreed to let me stay for half a year. This place is quite far from the county town. If I go out, it will take at least two days to go back and forth. It's a bit of a waste."

Bai Jun said quickly, "Then we can remove these two days and not count them in the six months. I'll go and tell my grandmother that Master Yushan will give face to the Buddha instead of the monk."

Zhang Xuexue agreed: "Sure!"

The next morning, several people set out together and headed for the county town at the foot of the mountain.

It took four or five hours to climb the mountain.

It was much easier to go down the mountain. Lao Qiu took them by water, and they drifted down the mountain in half an hour and reached the foot of the mountain.

Bai Jun was stunned: "I thought it would take several hours to get down the mountain. I didn't expect that there would be a shortcut!"

Lao Qiu said, "This waterway is turbulent and we can only go downstream, not against the current. So we can only go out, not in. When we return to the mountain, we have to walk for several hours."

When we got to the foot of the mountain, our cell phone signal started to work again.

Bai Jun immediately took out his cell phone to check.

He had a lot of messages, including 99+ missed calls and 99+ unread messages. Zhang Xuexue was urging him to hurry up, but he didn't have time to check them one by one.

He only had time to take a look at Bai Chengfeng's messages, which were mostly asking him where he was, and some of them were in a rather urgent tone.

There is no overnight grudge between father and son. During this period, Bai Jun took the time to call Bai Chengfeng back.

Bai Chengfeng didn't know what he was busy with. He hung up the phone in a hurry without saying a word.

Bai Jun was a little puzzled: "His biological son has been missing for so long, and he doesn't even talk to him for a while?"

Not long after, the group arrived at the county town.

Lao Qiu was preparing to take his wife to the movies. Before buying the tickets, he secretly glanced at Zhang Xuexue and Bai Jun several times.

Bai Jun asked stupidly, "Old Qiu, you have stye, why do you keep squeezing your eyes at me?"

It was Zhang Xuexue who reacted first and said tactfully, "Old Qiu, Bai Jun and I are going to go somewhere else and we won't watch the movie with you guys."

Lao Qiu said hurriedly, "You guys should walk around for a while longer, preferably until dark. I'll meet you at this intersection at 7pm, and we'll go back to the mountains together."

After Lao Qiu walked away, Bai Jun finally realized, "Is Lao Qiu reluctant to buy two more movie tickets, or is he afraid that the two of us will disturb his date?"

Zhang Xuexue said: "Of course, they are afraid of spending money, but they also don't want to take care of two of us light bulbs."

Bai Jun said: "Old Qiu has saved a lot of money, and he married a rich woman who doesn't need to marry into the family, so why is he still so stingy?"

Zhang Xuexue analyzed: "Maybe he has been poor all his life and is used to being stingy, so he can't change it in a short time."

Bai Jun sighed, "Although Lao Qiu has a bad fate, he can only donate the money he earns from exorcising evil spirits and catching ghosts. But even if he can only work to make money, he shouldn't be that poor, right? Is it difficult to make money? Can't he make millions in a few minutes?"

"Listen to what you say, are you talking like a human being?" Zhang Xuexue glared at him. "If you weren't a second-generation rich man, relying on the business your father built, how could you make millions every minute?"

Bai Jun shook his red hair confidently: "Even if I don't rely on my father, it's easy for me to make money. Zhang Xuexue, do you believe it?"

Zhang Xuexue chuckled: "I really don't believe it. So, today you don't have to rely on your father, go out to work and earn a thousand a day. Do you have the ability to do it?"

Bai Jun pinched his waist and laughed wildly: "Zhang Xuexue, you underestimate me, don't you? One thousand yuan, don't take it too lightly! My grandmother read my fortune and said I was born to be rich!"

Zhang Xuexue sneered: "That's because you built your wealth on your father's foundation. To put it bluntly, it's just that you were born into a good family. You're really capable!"

Bai Jun was annoyed: "Okay, I'm going to show you my abilities today! Just wait and see!"

So Bai Jun started thinking of ways to make money.
