Chapter 7 You spend my money to pick up girls!
Samantha originally thought Leonard had broken Richard's arm.
She dragged the man out of the car and found that fortunately it was just his arm that was accidentally dislocated and there were no broken bones.
"Hold on."
She grabbed Richard's arm and quickly reset the dislocated bone.
Richard moved his arms a few times and found that he was fine. He asked in surprise, "Mrs. Smith also studied medicine?"
Samantha remained silent.
The five arts of metaphysics are divided into mountain, medicine, physiognomy, destiny, and divination.
Mountain, also known as immortal, is a method of spiritual practice, including cultivation, alchemy, talismans, and health preservation.
Medicine refers to traditional medicine, which includes prescriptions, acupuncture, spiritual healing, etc.
Fate, or numerology, is a technique that uses the time of birth and the theory of yin and yang and the five elements to predict a person's fate, and thus to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.
Physiognomy, or physiognomy, includes physiognomy of heaven, of man, of the earth, and geomancy is one of them.
Divination means fortune-telling, choosing auspicious days, and predicting the situation.
She has mastered the five Taoist arts taught by her master.
Thirty years later in her previous life, she had become a world-renowned master of metaphysics. Countless dignitaries were scrambling to meet her, including, of course, members of the Smith family.
Leonard stared at Samantha silently, his deep eyes flashing with a thoughtful look.
He has been frail and sickly since childhood and has come into contact with countless doctors.
Samantha's technique for reattaching Richard's arm just now showed that she was an expert. My grandfather once said that Tai Xuan was not only a master of metaphysics, but also a miracle doctor.
It seems that Samantha has indeed learned some tricks.
He had great faith in medicine, but as for metaphysics... He was an atheist and firmly believed that there were no ghosts in this world.
If ghosts really exist, why has his sister never appeared or entered his dreams?
When a person dies, it is like a light going out, and everything will become nothingness.
Leonard lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze dim.
Richard glanced at his watch and suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my god, it's almost one o'clock. Let's not hang around outside. Come on, Mrs. Smith, I'll take you home first."
Samantha gave him a death stare.
"No need, the scenery over there at the artificial lake is very beautiful, I'll go take a look."
Richard was surprised and said, "It's the middle of the night, and the artificial lake is pitch black. What's there to see? Besides, someone committed suicide by jumping into the lake a year ago. Aren't you afraid?"
Samantha's lips curled up slightly. She wanted to find a place with a strong negative energy and where people had died. She looked up at Leonard who was silent , thought for a moment, and said to him, "Give me your hand."
Leonard's eyes were deep and his tone was calm: "What's the matter?"
"If you don't want to stay with me for three days, then give me your hand and I will help you resolve the White Tiger Evil."
As soon as these words came out, Richard burst out laughing, "Hahahaha, so you are a little charlatan!"
Then he couldn't laugh anymore, because Samantha said darkly, "Hospitals are full of negative energy, and are most likely to encounter ghosts. Doctors have great merits, but they also need to be careful. Richard, be careful of bad luck in love from the underworld."
Richard trembled all over: "Stop it, I'm honest, please let me go!"
Although he is not as firm as Leonard in believing that there is no God in the world, he is also skeptical about ghosts. After all, he works in a hospital and has heard many supernatural rumors.
For example, when you take the elevator at night, it will automatically descend to the morgue level.
In the middle of the night, strange crying sounds were heard from the abortion room.
Someone dies in a specific intensive care bed every Friday.
At twelve o'clock, the bell and instruments in the unoccupied ward will ring together.
etc.
Although there were many rumors, he had never experienced it personally, so he was always skeptical about such things and just listened and passed them by.
But now Samantha said in a grim voice that he was going to be haunted by a ghost, and he couldn't help feeling a little scared.
"Hands!" Samantha urged Leonard impatiently.
Seeing that he didn't react, she bit her fingertips, pulled his hand over, and before he could react, she quickly drew a rune on the back of his hand.
" Don't wash your hands within three days." Samantha warned, "This is a protective spell. Other than that, don't go out casually, stay at home and come back to me after three days."
Leonard's face darkened as he stared at the blood on the back of his hand, his brows furrowed.
"dirty."
Samantha said unhappily, "I'm already running low on energy and blood, and I'm drawing a protective spell for you, and you actually think I'm dirty?"
Leonard said slowly, "It's dirty if it's not washed for three days."
"He has severe mysophobia." Richard laughed, "Not washing hands for three days is killing him."
Samantha shrugged. "That's nothing I can do. I'm broke now. Even if I do ten somersaults, I won't get a penny. I can't afford yellow paper and cinnabar. I can only use blood to draw the curse for now."
Leonard's eyes just showed a trace of sympathy.
Samantha's eyes suddenly lit up, "By the way, the protective spell is not free, three thousand per ticket, cash or mobile phone payment?"
"Cash is better. I don't have a cell phone."
Leonard: “…”
Richard was stunned: "Aren't you the adopted daughter of the Smith family? How come you are so poor that you don't even have a cell phone?"
Samantha smiled faintly: "There was an old phone, I didn't take it."
She lived in her adoptive father's home in the countryside for the first eighteen years and didn't even know what a mobile phone was. It was not until she came to the Smith family a year ago that she discovered how wonderful the outside world was.
She was also ridiculed by Josephine for not knowing how to use a smartphone.
Afterwards, Franklin handed her an old-fashioned phone that could only make and receive calls.
Leonard turned around, took Richard's wallet out of the car, and silently pulled out a wad of bills and handed it to Samantha.
Richard : “?”
Okay , okay, you are generous and you use my money to pick up girls!
Samantha took the money with a smile on her face when she heard Leonard say coldly, "If I'm safe and sound within three days, I'll give you three thousand."
"If I get sick or encounter any accident, you will compensate me tenfold."
Samantha's fingertips froze, and her face instantly turned dark: "Is this how you earned your fortune?"
Leonard curled his lips slightly, and seemed to be in a better mood. "As expected of a disciple of the master, you are smart."
Samantha: “…”
His smile was so enchanting that she felt as if she had seen the dead Leonard.
Samantha decisively took the money and left.
Although she was rich, she had developed a habit of frugality since she was a child. Even if she became a master of metaphysics, she would not spend money recklessly, and every penny had to be spent wisely.
She walked towards the artificial lake, intending to rest on the bench for a night and look for a house when it was dawn.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the artificial lake, I saw a group of teenagers on motorcycles secretly lighting cigarettes.
Samantha immediately spotted the brightest one among the yellow-haired ones.
Suddenly, his name was called out.
"Theodore!"
Theodore was startled, and the hand holding the cigarette shook violently, and the burning cigarette butt poked into his palm.
It was so hot that he cried out.
"Who's there?!"
Samantha slowly walked out of the darkness and under the street light.
Theodore saw that it was her, and his panicked expression suddenly turned into anger. "You country bumpkin, you're following me again?"
He swore a curse word and rushed forward to push her as usual.
