Isn't This Just a Message in a Bottle?

Lu Changsheng was completely dumbfounded.

You just said it offhand, and it actually came true?

Is my luck really that good?

"Shopkeeper, you didn't just give us a perfunctory response because you saw how fierce we were, did you?"

Liu Qingfeng couldn't help but ask, "He's been guessing for so long and still couldn't figure it out, but his Eldest Senior Brother can guess it so easily?"

Are you kidding me?

Qian Qiye also thought it was too fake.

"No, no, this young master is indeed exceptionally talented. Please look, the answer is on the back of this note."

The shopkeeper opened his mouth and took off the lantern at the same time. The white paper on the back did indeed have the answer, but it was stuck to a piece of white paper as big as a fingernail. When he tore it open, it turned out to be dry writing.

Did I really guess right?

Lu Changsheng was somewhat taken aback; the probability of this happening was truly unbelievable.

"Could it be that what Master said was true?"

Lu Changsheng couldn't help but recall the six-word mantra his master had spoken on Red Peak.

Being handsome brings good luck!

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but put it to the test.

"Shopkeeper, is the answer to the second lantern the character for 'moon'?"

Lu Changsheng asked.

Upon hearing this, the latter exclaimed in surprise, "Young master is indeed a man of great talent! The answer to the second lantern is indeed the character 'moon'!"

Is that really true?

"The third one is the character Lin? The fourth one is the character Leopard? The fifth one is the character Xiang?"

Lu Changsheng casually uttered a few words.

However, the shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, revealing an expression of utter surprise.

"Yes, yes, yes! I never expected you to be so clever, young master, guessing everything in one go. This item will be yours, young master. Speaking of which..."

The shopkeeper was shocked and began to explain the origin of the stone, but Lu Changsheng ignored him and went to a nearby stall, asking, "Can this be used to solve riddles?"

Lu Changsheng asked.

He was trying to verify whether what the Qingyun Daoist said was true or false.

"It is possible, but my riddles are different from others. Each riddle has three characters, so please read the riddle carefully, young master."

The shopkeeper spoke, having witnessed Lu Changsheng's performance at the first shop, and thus appeared somewhat confident, advising Lu Changsheng to carefully read the questions and pay attention.

"Three words?" Lu Changsheng replied without any hesitation, "Short and weak!"

Since the answer is three words, Lu Changsheng will try to say four words.

He refused to believe it; the answer was three words, how could he possibly get it right if he said four?

As expected, everyone shook their heads upon hearing this, and Liu Qingfeng immediately spoke up.

"Senior brother, the shopkeeper already said it was three words, why did you say four?"

However, the stall owner stared at Lu Changsheng with a look of utter shock and disbelief.

"Sir, you are truly talented. I thought my riddle was flawless, but I didn't expect you to guess it correctly. In that case, I accept my defeat wholeheartedly. You may choose any item from this stall."

The shopkeeper's words stunned everyone.

They were also dumbfounded, unsure whether Lu Changsheng was just lucky or truly capable.

Lu Changsheng was the most confused.

This works?

Is this really necessary?

Wasn't the answer supposed to be three words?

Can you keep your promise?

Is there still any trust between people?

At this moment, Lu Changsheng finally understood the six-word mantra spoken by Qingyun Daoist.

Sure enough, being handsome brings good luck.

With a sigh, Lu Changsheng reluctantly accepted this situation.

"Let's go!"

Lu Changsheng didn't pick anything out, except for the color-changing pebble, which was quite nice. At the second stall, Lu Changsheng didn't pick anything out either and left immediately.

Liu Qingfeng and Qian Qiye followed behind Lu Changsheng with expressions of extreme admiration.

"Do you think the teacher is just lucky or really talented?"

Qian Qiye couldn't help but ask Liu Qingfeng.

"That's not nonsense, you definitely have the strength. Do you even know what realm our Eldest Senior Brother is at?"

Liu Qingfeng said irritably.

"What realm?" Qian Qiye asked curiously.

"Then I'm telling you, you can't tell anyone," Liu Qingfeng said in a low voice, appearing very cautious.

"Don't worry, I won't say anything wrong."

Qian Qiye nodded seriously.

"The Eldest Senior Brother has actually Mahayana Realm. The reason he went down the mountain to travel is to temper his Mortal World Heart. Otherwise, do you think you would have been able to see the Eldest Senior Brother?"

Liu Qingfeng said earnestly.

"The Mahayana Realm? It seems I was short-sighted. I thought Master Changsheng was at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm."

Qian Qiye said this.

"Don't you have any doubts at all?"

Seeing Qian Qiye's expression, Liu Qingfeng couldn't help but feel curious.

He had originally planned to wait for Qian Qiye to show shock and then say he didn't believe it, and then use the same method he used to attack those Great Luo disciples to further shock Qian Qiye. But to his surprise, Qian Qiye actually believed it directly.

This gives me a feeling that's hard to describe.

"What doubts do you have?"

"I'm not stupid. From the moment I met Master Changsheng, I knew he was an unparalleled master."

Qian Qiye said earnestly.

"Why?"

Liu Qingfeng became curious.

"It's very simple. From the first moment I saw Master Changsheng, I noticed that there was not a trace of Spiritual Qi fluctuation in his body. For example, when Master Changsheng performed his extraordinary phenomena in the palace, there was no fluctuation of Law Power. I once read an ancient book that said that the stronger a person's realm, the more stable their control over Law Power."

"You are in the Core Formation Realm, and I am in the Golden Core Realm. When we are slightly agitated, our internal Law Power will naturally surge. However, even when Master Changsheng performs extraordinary phenomena, there is no feeling of his Law Power surging."

"Those who can control their own Law Power fluctuations at will are either at a very low level or at a very high level, so I naturally have no doubt that you are talking about the Mahayana Realm."

Qian Qiye's words were reasonable and well-founded, causing Liu Qingfeng to fall into deep thought.

"Don't you know?"

Qian Qiye noticed Liu Qingfeng's thoughtful expression and couldn't help but ask him this question.

"Of course I know. If I didn't know this, what kind of immortal would I be cultivating?"

Liu Qingfeng spoke first, then immediately changed the subject.

"By the way, didn't you say the most anticipated part was the lantern festival? Take us to see it! This lantern festival is totally boring."

Liu Qingfeng said this.

Qian Qiye glanced at the sky, then nodded excitedly and said, "Yes, yes, sending off the lanterns is the most fun! Master Changsheng, the lantern-sending will start in half an hour. Let's hurry over, or there won't be any spots left by the river."

She said this, and at the same time enthusiastically pulled Lu Changsheng over.

His eyes were full of anticipation.

Seeing Qian Qiye's anticipation, Liu Qingfeng, for some reason, also revealed a look of anticipation.

Led by Qian Qiye, the three hurriedly arrived at a riverbank.

At this moment, the entire riverbank was already packed with people.

Most of them were men, and there were very few women.

"Qian Qiye, didn't you say you could find your soulmate? Why are they all men?"

Liu Qingfeng glanced around at the people, who were almost all men.

"My beloved is up there."

Qian Qiye said with a smile.

"Up there? There?"

Liu Qingfeng looked up, but there was nothing there.

"Upstream." Qian Qiye said with a hint of helplessness, pointing ahead.

"Why are you going there? What's the point of giving out colored lights then?"

Liu Qingfeng became even more curious.

"The lanterns aren't delivered directly to you. Instead, people upstream buy some lanterns and slip a note inside with a poem or a question. When you find a lantern, you open the note, answer the question, and leave your name and address. The lantern will then automatically return to its original owner."

"If the other party is satisfied with your answer, they will come to you. Of course, you'd better pay attention: red ink means all the lanterns are for men, and purple ink means they are for women. Got it?"

Qian Qiye explained it this way.

After thinking about it carefully, Lu Changsheng suddenly realized!

Isn't this just a message in a bottle?
