Chapter 17

• Yang Yu studied everything in the first story of the house and looked at the red-faced deity statue that was being worshipped placed in front of him. He continued to add, “It’s a good thing that you have the Four Symbols[1] and the Guan Yu[2] statue guarding your family, or otherwise, he’d have been in danger.”
• The idiot’s father had now completely prostrated himself before Yang Yu in admiration. He had first guessed the weather, mirror and tree correctly, then he had even accurately predicted his son’s possession by the black magic. Not only that, this fortune teller even refused to take his money! What a saint this person was! Now, he could even tell that these four pillars were actually the Four Symbols. How amazing could this person be?!
• Yang Yu continued to work out the calculations with his fingers, with his brows furrowed tightly. The idiot’s father had already become a dog, tailing closely behind him, turning every corner that Yang Yu took, and coming to a halt whenever Yang Yu stopped in his tracks. The idiot’s father wanted to open his mouth to ask but he always stopped himself in time, afraid that he would disturb the master.
