Chapter 2 The Altar of Fortune

"Eye of the Sky!"

"Altar of Luck!"

"Sacrificing luck can guide opportunities!"

"Cien Temple, Diamond Sutra!"

Chen Yuan stayed in place stiffly. At this moment, under the influx of cool air, he vaguely saw the incomplete altar covered with blood lines in his mind.

"It turns out... I have a golden finger!" Chen Yuan flashed this idea.

"Chen Yuan, you did a good job!"

Head catcher Huang Xing praised him, stepped forward and patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder, causing his consciousness to turn around instantly. After that, he saw the blood flowing down the blade of the knife and onto his hand.

Tie Shou's eyes widened, as if he didn't expect that he would die in the hands of a small government servant.

The long knife was inserted into Tie Shou's left heart, and the blade was half-deep.

Chen Yuan gasped slightly and felt a sense of joy in his heart.

Fortunately, I was smart and had already prepared a bag of lime powder and hid it in my chest.

Otherwise, seeing how Iron Hand blasted Wang Ping away with one palm, he would definitely not be much better.

"What a boy, I actually hid a bag of lime powder." Huang Xing didn't pay attention to Chen Yuan's dull expression.

It was thought that he was under the oppression of an iron hand and could not recover for a while.

Chen Yuan forced out a smile: "Finally, we killed this villain!"

"After you go back, I will ask the county captain for you."

Huang Xing was very happy, he killed Iron Shou, and the county magistrate and the county lieutenant also came to an explanation.

The head catcher seems to have an official status and a local background as the Huang family, but if the county magistrate is unhappy, it will be very uncomfortable to handle him.

"Uh...uh..."

Wang Ping's subtle voice came from not far away. Chen Yuan quickly reacted, released the knife in his hand, and went to help Wang Ping.

Without support, Tie Shou's body collapsed to the ground.

"How... can you still move?" Chen Yuan supported Wang Ping and asked.

"Don't...don't move, it's broken...it's broken..."

"A few broken ribs...his damn iron hands...are really cruel!"

Wang Ping gasped.

Head catcher Huang Xing checked the iron hand and confirmed that there were no problems. He turned around and walked to Wang Ping and said:

"This time I will mark your merits. Don't worry, you will be rewarded."

"Thank...Thank you, sir."

Huang Xing's eyes became darker, he glanced at several white servants and said calmly:

"Send Wang Ping to the hospital."

He didn't criticize them too much. These white servants were just a type of corvee. They could do their jobs and bully the common people, but when it came to risking their lives, they had no courage at all.





late at night.

Chen Yuan was lying on the bed, thinking about the consciousness that came to his mind today.

Goldfinger!

He also has a golden finger!

The only difference is that his golden finger is a bit special and needs to absorb luck to activate it.

Otherwise, even if Chen Yuan follows the instructions for the rest of his life, there will be no reaction.

And today, he absorbed the mysterious luck from Tie Shou.

Only then did Goldfinger react.

His golden finger is called the Altar of Luck, and as long as it absorbs luck, it can guide him to opportunities.

As for the Sky Eye...

It was a pupil technique that was introduced into Chen Yuan's mind after the Altar of Luck was activated.

As long as you practice this pupil technique, you can detect people with good luck within a hundred meters.

Kill him and his luck will be absorbed by the luck altar.

Ci'en Temple, Diamond Sutra.

It was the opportunity to receive guidance from the Iron Hand Luck.

"This...doesn't it mean I'm going to hunt down all the children of destiny in the world!"

Chen Yuan felt scared for a while.

This is the path to becoming a great villain, and it doesn’t take much to think about it. Most of the people who are blessed with luck are geniuses with top martial arts qualifications.

There is a background behind these geniuses!

This kind of thing like beating a young child to become an old man is already a routine in novels where the old man can grow old again!

"And... today, I killed someone!"

At close range, a knife stabbed into the chest, and the iron hand refused to rest in silence.

But what really shocked Chen Yuan was that he didn't show any abnormal behavior and was even...a little excited.

Bloodthirsty.

This is a word that flashed through Chen Yuan's mind.

After a quarter of silence, Chen Yuan closed his eyes.

...

In the early morning, everything was quiet, and a ray of light appeared on the eastern horizon, carefully infiltrating the sky.

Ping'an County, North Gate.

A man wearing a government uniform, riding a brown horse, left Ping'an County.

This person is none other than Chen Yuan.

The purpose of his trip was the message from the altar of luck in his mind, Ci'en Temple, and the Diamond Sutra.

The sky is as big as the earth, not as big as a golden finger!

This is the realization of a certain ten-year-old bookworm.

He didn't sleep well last night, and his mind kept thinking about the moment when Tie Shou was stabbed to death by him, and the information that came into his mind.

Therefore, as soon as it was dawn, we couldn't wait to rush to the destination of our trip.

Ci'en Temple, located ten miles north of Ping'an County, is a small temple. Two hundred years ago, Buddhism spread to the Central Plains in the Western Regions, and Buddhist temples began to bloom throughout the Jin Dynasty.

Ci'en Temple is one of the most inconspicuous ones.

Ci'en Temple is nothing in the world, but on weekdays it is still popular.

In the past, my predecessor often followed his uncle to burn incense and worship Buddha, so Chen Yuan was no stranger to the road.

Along the way, Chen Yuan was thinking about the information coming from the broken altar in his mind, and words such as luck and opportunity were constantly pondered by Chen Yuan.

After nearly half an hour, Chen Yuan rode his horse and arrived in front of Ci'en Temple.

Nowadays, disasters are everywhere in the world, and people's lives are more difficult. There are also many fewer people going to Ci'en Temple to burn incense.

After leaving the horse to the care of the monks and nuns in the temple, Chen Yuan found a familiar monk and wanted to enter the Sutra Pavilion to have a look. The scriptures in it did not contain any magical secrets, but were all Buddhist scriptures.

So pilgrims are not prohibited from entering.

"Are these all the Diamond Sutras in the temple?" Chen Yuan asked, looking at the dozen or so sutras in front of him.

The green-robed monk smiled and nodded:

"The Diamond Sutra in the temple is all here, what is the main use of Chen Shi?"

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yuan explained:

"My uncle liked the Diamond Sutra the most during his lifetime. It will be the anniversary of his death in a few days. Chen wants to take all these scriptures away and burn them to his uncle. I hope the master can..."

The monk frowned slightly and shook his head:

"Donor Chen, if you take away only one copy of these Diamond Sutras, the poor monk can still make the decision, but taking them all away requires the approval of the presiding officer."

Chen Yuan smiled and handed over a tael of silver.

"I hope the master will be accommodating to me for the sake of my filial piety."

The monk looked around, quietly put the money into his sleeves, clasped his hands together and said:

"When old benefactor Chen was still alive, he often came to the temple to burn incense. Naturally, the poor monk would not be unkind, and I think the host would agree."

"Thank you, Master."

Chen Yuan put away the scriptures and chuckled in his heart.

The law of true fragrance will never go out of style.

Even monks are no exception!
