Chapter 303: Frightening Bad Luck
# 303. Frightening Bad Luck
*A young friend is in trouble… is it Five, or some other junior acquaintance of Daoist Jinlian?*
Xu Qi’an showed an appropriate expression of confusion: "Where is your young friend, Daoist? Do you need me to mobilize the court’s forces?"
Daoist Jinlian shook his head and replied, "She’s in Xiangzhou."
*Xiangzhou lies to the south of the capital, about 400 kilometers away... not too close, but not too far either.* Xu Qi’an frowned, saying, "Daoist, if you have business, I have no choice but to assist. However, I’ll need to request a leave of absence from the yamen first, since the journey is long."
Daoist Jinlian nodded, “You can have a servant request leave on your behalf tomorrow. We’ll depart tonight to save time… Oh, by the way, what about the Master of Prophecy?
"If we want to locate someone, we’ll need the help of her Qi-watching technique."
"She’s at the Sitianjian..." Xu Qi’an sighed, then added jokingly, "Alright, I’ll go to her mum’s house and drag her here."
*This Master of Prophecy must be a woman…* Number Six Hengyuan and Number Four Chu Yuanzhen both made this mental deduction.
