Yunbai Old Lady actually wanted to add another condition.
Master had sent me to borrow the tail, surely in preparation for the next seven days.
Master hadn't explained its purpose, so this tail had to be of immense use.
If possible, it wasn't unacceptable for me to pay some price in exchange for borrowing her tail.
So I spoke again:
"Grandma Cloud White, tell me what your condition is first.
If it's something I can do, I'll do my utmost."
Upon hearing this, Grandma Cloud White let out several cackles. Her laughter and expression had clearly turned a little strange.
Looking at her, she definitely had no good intentions.
Then, Yunbai Old Lady spoke:
"Grandma's condition is very simple!
Just give this old woman a few strands of your hair, then clip off some of your nails for me."
My heart trembled at those words.
She wanted my hair and nails. I remembered the first time I came here.
Yunbai Old Lady had wanted the hair and nails of Mao Jing, Pan Ling, and me. Master had smoothed things over at the time, saying that if Yunbai Old Lady wanted them, we could just grab a handful and give it to her. Yet Yunbai Old Lady had refused.
Now, at this moment, she was making this condition.
Should I agree, or not?
First of all, hair and nails were parts of the body. If they were willingly given to someone else,
in fate divination, it carried the meaning of "giving away one's lifespan" and "giving away one's fortune."
Giving one's own fortune and lifespan to another person...
Yunbai Old Lady wanted my hair and nails because she wanted my fortune and lifespan.
Although I really wanted the cat tail, and I was willing to give her some of my fortune
