Who Moved My Mountain Chapter 17 Part2

White Taoist robe

             "This little girl, how can your memory be so good!" Lu Nan Xian couldn't help but stiffen, and then laughingly poked Yuan Yuan's forehead. It wasn't that he wasn't able to do it. Nevertheless, it still took him a few hours, from 11 am to 1 pm to build this simple miniature wooden house, and damaging quite a few blocks of wood in the process.  

　　If it weren't because his baby granddaughter had suffered a fright and how he kept being compared to other grandfathers who could do this kind of things… As the stately chairman of the Lu Group, when would he have the time to make this kind of thing? 

　　Seeing Yuan Yuan playing happily, Lu Nan Xian turned around, his face already resuming its usual sternness. He walked towards Jiang Shu Hua and sat down beside her to ask: "During the call you said that a young lady saved Yuan Yuan. How are you planning to thank her?"

　　Lu Hua Nian frowned when the topic of Yun Rong was brought up. "I did want to thank her, but that young lady left when I wasn't paying attention. At that time I gave her a 50,000 yuan bank card to hold. Originally, after handling Yuan Yuan's matter, I wanted to invite her to a meal……"

　　"How could you just give money to the person?" Lu Nan Xian had not yet opened his mouth that Jiang Shu Hua had already objected: "That person saved a life, it's our family's saviour. And you directly gave them money, isn't it an insult to the person?"

　　"Mom, I really didn't mean it like that." Lu Hua Nian promptly explained, "I can't thank her enough. At that time, I asked her if there was anything that she wanted me to do. When she opened her mouth, she was just asking for 5,000 yuan. Looking at her appearance, she didn't seem to be too well off. I was afraid that she needed that money urgently. That's the reason I directly gave her the bank card with 50,000 in it to use. Anything else had to wait until Yuan Yuan was discharged from the hospital. Unexpectedly, she didn't even leave her phone number behind……." 

　　"My heart also felt uncomfortable with this matter." Lu Hua Nian sighed, "I asked He Nian to help me look for her. If he can find her, I will definitely express my grat.i.tude properly."

　　Hearing her daughter's explanation, Jiang Shu Hua raised her eyebrows and said: "You seem to like this young lady very much?" She still understood her own daughter, she was not the kind that was a very enthusiastic and pa.s.sionate person. The person had already left and was given some money, yet she still wanted to find that person back. It truly didn't resemble her usual practice. 

　　"Mom, you have no idea; that young lady looks bright and beautiful. Her manners were also clean and neat. I had a good impression of her, there was a kind of feeling as if looking at one's daughter." When saying this, Lu Hua Nian let out a smile and her gaze turned gentle, "I have already met many people but n.o.body has ever given me this kind of feeling." 

　　Jiang Shu Hua also felt unusual and smilingly said: "If she is found, I would also like to meet her. There's a young lady who sounds so charming?"

　　As the Lu family was in the middle of their conversation, the housekeeper entered to inform: "Mister, Madam, Master Zhang is here." 

　　Master Zhang?

　　Everyone showed a solemn expression. Master Zhang was actually the Bureau Chief from Hais.h.i.+'s special office. In the circle of the paranormal, he was considered one of the best and the average person wouldn't be able to invite him. However, 30 years ago, through some matters, coincidentally Lu Nan Xian saved Master Zhang's life and was able to climb into haveing a relation with him.  

　　When Jiang Shu Hua gave birth to Lu He Nian, thunder and lightning kept rumbling and flas.h.i.+ng; and inside the hospital, strange sounds kept sounding, like the wailing of ghosts and the howlings of wolves. It was thanks to Master Zhang's prompt arrival that she was able to deliver smoothly. 

　　At that time, when Master Zhang first saw Lu He Nian, he was greatly alarmed. Afterwards, he told them of the inauspicious aura surrounding Lu He Nian's body, a hard and lonely life unable to marry. So many years had pa.s.sed but Lu He Nian's inauspicious aura grew even more grave. To suppress it, they could only rely on Master Zhang's visit every month, when he would create a peace and safety talisman2for him.    

　　That's why, when Mister Zhang came to visit, everyone's heart was very nervous, fearing that Lu He Nian's aura would have become even heavier. 

　　Lu Nan Xian personally went to the door to welcome Master Zhang. A moment later, he led a lean old man wearing a white Taoist robe who gave out a detached feeling, just like an immortal. In contrast, he had crew-cut, white hair, yet his facial features still resembled a 40-year-old middle-aged man.  

　　A 30-year-old man was following behind him, his hand carrying a bag. It was his disciple, Wan Bo.

　　"Mister Zhang, how come you came over at this late hour? Is He Nian's life characters showing any problems?1" Jiang Shu Hua, as a mother, was very worried. Waiting for the person to sit down and she promptly opened her mouth to ask.  

　　"Madam Lu doesn't have to worry, I have good news to tell." Mister Zhang showed a comforting smile.

　　Good news?

　　The heart of every member of the Lu family was startled and Lu Nan Xian hurriedly asked: "What good news?"

　　"Last night when I was making the peace and safty talisman for He Nian, I once again calculated his life character. I have told you before that when He Nian reached the age of 30, it would be his checkpoint. If he could get through it, his life fate would change. Perhaps there is hope that he could live a normal person's life. However, if he could not get through it, it would be difficult to protect his life."

　　"I have continuously looked for ways to help He Nian to pa.s.s this checkpoint but I have not found it yet." Mister Zhang paused: "I calculated and in the middle of the hopeless situation, a life force appeared." 

　　"Hopeless situation?" Jiang Shu Hua's complexion turned deathly white, "Before, when you told us about this 30-years-old checkpoint, it was actually a hopeless situation?" 

　　It was based on Lu He Nian's request that Master Zhang had concealed this from Jiang Shu Hua and Lu Nan Xian before. He himself had actually just  found out about it last year. And he was very calm when he knew that he only had 20 percent chance of staying alive when he reached 30. He merely asked Master Zhang to keep it to himself.   

        Mister Zhang nodded his head seriously: "It was a hopeless situation before, but now he could try to fight his way out3!"

1: This is like fortune telling, so the master 'reads' the person's life character to tell if there would be any problems or good things coming into their life.
2: This talisman is a good quality piece of jade which then is infused with spiritual power, gaining these peace and safety attributes.
2: 置之死地而后生 (zhì zhī sǐ dì ér hòu shēng) – lit. to place sb on a field of death and then they would fight to live (idiom based on Sunzi's “The Art of War” 孫子兵法 孙子兵法). Idiom meaning to fight desperately when confronting mortal danger.

So, we have tried monetizing the blog because, why not?
