Chapter 358: Divine Separation of Small Feng Shui

Cherry had no real evidence to prove anything, but he was not a policeman, so a slight suspicion was enough.

Whether it was true or not, he believed that he would gain something if he talked for a while longer.

However, a few drunken hooligans staggered over, and when they saw the stall, they were not happy about it and kicked over the stove, causing the boiling water to steam.

After smashing the stall, the hooligans were satisfied and walked away arm in arm. The stall owner, with a furious look on his face, chased after them with a rolling pin in his hand to argue with them.

The two sides pushed and shoved each other, and soon they walked away from each other.

"Hey~ You haven't paid the bill yet~" Cherry shouted while holding the bowl of noodles, but there was no response and they disappeared into the dark street.

Cherry was the only one left, eating her noodle soup without going back to the inn or chasing after him.

After he had finished eating, he tightened his cotton jacket and spoke softly.

"Master Gong, where do they come from?"

The cold wind blew up the dead leaves, which fell on the wall and vaguely formed a blurry face, but the obvious small eyes could still be seen.

"A scoundrel is not a scoundrel, and a fellow is not a fellow."

Cherry reacted as if it was a matter of course.

It would be strange if the route was simple. Even if they were scoundrels in big cities, they would go to busy areas for a walk at midnight, right? There were not even a few mice to be seen in this area in the late night, so how could they go straight to the noodle stall?

That guy's acting was always good. Maybe he was afraid of being asked something and finally revealed his fear. How could he dare to be so bold as a small businessman? Not to mention kicking your pot, you have to bear the consequences of kicking you.

"Are they here targeting Zhao Sanyuan and the others?"

"I'm not sure yet, but I'm sure there are several experts inside, with magic on them. As long as I get close enough, they will notice me."

Cherry's expression finally changed. He frowned slightly, thinking that he knew best what level his old immortal was at. It was indeed not easy for him to be discovered even when he was following closely.

Isn't Yuan Wenqiu just a big scoundrel? Where did he find such a powerful master? Didn't Master Qi say that any old master would have some moral integrity?
"One more thing."

"Master Gong, that's what you said."

"The cart driver who brought you here before is dead."

"where!?"

"He was three blocks away. What could you do? He was chopped into several pieces and stuffed into the swill bucket. I couldn't do anything."

Cherry stopped in her tracks, with a look of unremovable anger between her brows.

Chopped into several pieces?
What's the grudge?
"Master Gong, have you captured his remaining soul? At least let him be led to the underworld smoothly. No matter how much, I will owe him a favor."

There is a slight difference between such a tragic death and an unexpected death. Although both are likely to turn into evil spirits after death, the former's soul will be "torn apart" to a much greater extent. Sometimes, it cannot even become a ghost, and the broken soul will gradually dissipate between heaven and earth.

"Alas, both the person and the soul are gone. Judging from the condition of his body, he was tortured severely during his lifetime. After his death, his soul was either extinguished or taken away. In any case, I can't find it anymore."

There was a long silence.

Perhaps the cold night breeze can ease Cherry's anger a little.

The white fairy also known as Gong Ye remained silent. As the second-generation repaying fairy, he followed Cherry to protect her as soon as she landed on the ground in this life. He understood his disciple's feelings best.

There is nothing wrong with him except that he is a little narrow-minded. Hidden beneath his cynicism is a sense of righteousness and a typical hero of Qi and Lu who will repay a drop of kindness with a spring of water.

Although he was suppressed by his grandfather since he was a child, he actually never suffered any setbacks. Everything went smoothly all the way. Therefore, he cannot accept failure, nor can he accept that the things or people he cares about are hit.

The death of the rickshaw driver is an obvious example.

Even though it was just a business deal, giving Cherry a ride when she was in trouble was love in his eyes. Now that man-made disaster had happened, it was hard for him to get over the hurdle in his heart.

"Damn it! Zhao Sanyuan and his gang didn't just offend Yuan Wenqiu, right? A big gangster is still a gangster no matter what, is it necessary to be ruthless to a small person? Even if you want to ask something, you don't have to ask me, what kind of evildoer did Zhao Sanyuan offend? If this continues, many innocent people may be implicated."

"No matter who they are, they will find a way to solve it themselves. Even if they can't solve it, Zhao Sanyuan and Kang Muang's master will always find a way."

Cherry was skeptical of this statement.

Jian Jue Mo Wenshan. When I was a child, I heard my grandfather talk about how Mo Wenshan secretly took away two pieces of good material to make a fire and barbecue. He would grit his teeth every time he mentioned it.

Apart from this, I know nothing about Mo Wenshan.

Is he really that awesome?

Although I don't want to admit it, it must be not easy to teach a powerful character like Zhao Sanyuan.

But the hero is old and the beauty is gray-haired. No matter how powerful he is, given his age, he may not be able to regain his former courage.

"You want to intervene?"

Cherry didn't answer. He walked straight forward and came to a back alley three blocks away. He could smell the pungent smell of slop from a long distance away.

He took off his coat as he walked, and in the cold wind, he was shirtless and reached his hands into the huge swill bucket. He fished out piece by piece the corpses that were still bleeding, and then carefully placed them in his coat.

The next morning.

In the backyard of Three Trees, Liu Mangfan and Kang Muang were brushing their teeth. When they saw their younger brother with dark circles under his eyes, they knew he didn’t get enough rest.

I wanted to say, "Brother, why don't you stay here and recuperate while we go explore Suluo Garden," but everyone knew that this was useless.

"An enemy showed up last night and I almost got into trouble. You all should be careful."

Liu Mangfan, who was about to spit out the mouthwash, swallowed it back, foaming while speaking.

"What? Someone came to our door? If it wasn't for you, brother, why didn't you say anything earlier? Did he think we were made of mud? And where did he come from? You almost got into trouble."

Zhao Sanyuan did not hide anything and told every detail of what happened, even mentioning the red mole on the thigh of the woman in his dream.

This is a serious matter, he doesn't want his brother to fall into the ditch. Yes, I'm talking about you, Brother Liu.

In this world, you have the desire but not the courage to do something evil, and you may be able to control yourself in the end. But it’s hard to say what will happen in the inner world. If you really get carried away, who knows what the consequences will be.

Kang Muang groaned for a moment, "It seems that the other party's inner vision has been practiced to a certain level, and he can put people in it without them knowing it."

"What are you afraid of? Isn't this right in your hands, Brother Kang?" Lu Xiucai came over with breakfast in his hand, his face full of confidence, "Except for Master and Grandpa, you are the best at practicing Inner Scenery among all the people I have seen. When he wants to play Inner Scenery again, Brother Kang, you don't even have to lift a finger, you can take him down with Inner Scenery."

Zhao Sanyuan gave a thumbs up and said, "No problem, brother. Let Lao Kang deal with him. But I have been worried that there will be accidents on this trip."

"Brother, were you hit on the head by cherries? This is not what you would say." Liu Mangfan said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "During our journey together, there has never been a time when there were no accidents. It is an accident if there are no accidents, right? I am used to it, but you are not?" "That's right, let's eat, if you are not a scholar, why did you buy so much? Can't you hold back the style of the young master again?"

"I also brought some for Zhang Linyi and Cherry, but the shopkeeper said they left early in the morning and left a message to apologize for leaving without saying goodbye."

Zhao Sanyuan wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth and said, "Let's go. After all, what we have to do is not small. Don't drag outsiders into this. If things go wrong, half of the underworld in Tianjin will come to hunt us down."

The words have not yet fallen.

Zhang Xiaogou, who had just arrived, laughed out loud after hearing this.

"Don't be afraid, brother. If it really comes to that, the other half of the dock in Tianjin will take action."

"Don't be so full of words, it's almost time, let's go check out that Laozisuluo Garden!"

It is said that seeing is believing, and doing is worse than seeing.

At noon, the Suluo Garden was already crowded with visitors of all kinds.

Although it is impossible for the mainstay Nalan Rongcuo to perform on stage at this time, it is always a good idea to come early to grab a seat, otherwise you won't be able to squeeze in at night. Besides, the troupe of Suluoyuan is very good, and the red flowers look even more beautiful against the backdrop of green leaves.

Zhao Sanyuan and the others didn't even enter the door, and they all had frowns on their faces.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

From the perspective of Feng Shui, ordinary people look at the land, while experts look at the Qi. Only when you see it with your own eyes will you know that what the scholar said last night was still conservative.

It was as if a tangible evil aura filled every corner, and there seemed to be a dark cloud pressing down on the sky above the Su Luo Garden. It was a sunny day, but not much of the scorching sun could get in. Except for living people, any insect, ant, cat, or mouse would run away in fear if they got within a certain distance.

If he had to describe it, Zhao Sanyuan would say that Suluo Garden was like a large coffin that was lifted up, and underneath it were bloody piles of living things.

Among the brothers, Liu Mangfan is the best at this. Looking at him shivering from time to time, you can know how strange the Feng Shui of Suluo Garden is.

"On the seventh day, the snake spews fire; on the twenty-eighth day, the rabbit falls asleep; on the thirty-ninth day, the ox looks west; on the fortyth day, the pig fulfills his wish; on the fifty-first day, the cock crows; on the sixth day, the sheep returns to the pen. It's a waste of effort to pray to the gods; there's no effect. This is a setup by the gods, damn!"

Liu Mangfan talked a lot, and except for Lao Kang, Zhao Sanyuan and Lu Xiucai were all confused.

How many of you know the rhyme for funeral ceremonies?
"Brother Liu, can you translate what I mean?"

"This thing cannot be explained in a few words, but you are an insider, so you will understand it immediately. The Feng Shui of this layout is based on the Jinhua Sutra, which emphasizes the twelve gods, namely Tiangang, Daocai, Daoku, Jingli, Daosha, Hekui, Xiaoshi, Huagai, Daolu, Ziyi, Daoxing and Daofu. Tiangang is added to the Suizhi to follow the twelve gods."

It is indeed not something that can be explained in just a few words. Liu Mangfan spent more than half an hour just to give a general explanation.

Translated into layman's terms, the feng shui layout of Suluo Garden is somewhat similar to building a temple, but also slightly different.

The temple emphasizes the falling of the gods, but Su Luo Garden has created a separation of gods.

This means that fairies are not allowed to approach, not even the local city god.

Such a heaven-defying feng shui arrangement is extremely rare. Liu Mangfan has heard of it but has never seen it. It is said that the Imperial College in the Tang Dynasty was almost like this.

Zhao Sanyuan exhaled a heavy puff of smoke and said in a deep voice, "You mean you can't bring your Li Xian'er and I in, right?"

"Brother, you still don't understand." Liu Mangfan smiled bitterly and said, "Have you forgotten that there are so many living stakes underneath? Combining the two, I guess outsiders who go in to perform spells will be seriously disturbed or weakened, while the host can get twice the result with half the effort. Just imagine what the result will be when this is weakened."

Zhang Xiaogou next to him seemed to have understood roughly what was said.

What this means is that even a good man would have to keep his legs weak and clamp his crotch together when he enters, because even an old lady opposite him can show off all kinds of skills.

How the hell is this going to work?
"brother."

"Ok?"

"Why don't we set him on fire?"

"Then Li Dasen lit a sky lantern on Liu Guanghai to appease his anger? Brother, you are a big shot now, can you think about it? I didn't even dare to say to set a fire. Besides, we have to solve the fundamental problem. If the people run away, what's the point of burning down a restaurant?"

After that, Zhao Sanyuan lit a cigarette for Brother Liu and asked, "Is there any way to break its trap?"

"Let me think about it." Liu Mangfan looked around with a cigarette in his mouth, and then began to walk around Suluo Garden to observe the terrain, sometimes digging and licking the soil, and sometimes scraping the base of a wall with a knife.

After all this trouble, no definite answer was given after dark. Instead, Lao Liu's brows became deeper and deeper, and he grinned from time to time.

"Build, level, full, complete, harvest, open"

"Gongyin belongs to earth. Shiyin is water, which is insufficient."

"Brother, do you have any cigarettes left? Damn, thinking about things consumes too much cigarettes, brother, brother?"

Kang Muang handed over two candied haws and said, "Stop shouting. Use these to relieve your craving for cigarettes first."

"Where are Sanyuan and Xiucai?"

"Alas, they both have short tempers. When they heard that Nalan Rongcuo was going to go on stage, they went in first."

"What the hell!? Didn't I say the situation inside was too weird? If we really start to do it, it will definitely be a disaster!"

"Then let's just pray that they don't do it. What do you think? Have you thought of a solution?"

Liu Mangfan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I can figure out the Feng Shui of Su Luo Garden, and I understand what it is, but I can't think of a way to break the impasse. What does impregnable mean? What does forbidden to enter mean? This time I have really opened my eyes. I just need to listen to the songs honestly when I go in. If I really have any intentions to make trouble, I will never end up well."

"Well, I've been following you for so long, and I have an idea. How about you listen to it?"

"Tell me something. My brain is spinning so fast that I need a break."

Kang Muang took off his glasses and wiped the frost off them, and said softly, "Everything must have yin and yang, positive and negative. I have heard a little about the situation of the gods being separated, but there is another situation that I don't know if you, Brother Liu, have heard of? The seventh is in Shen, the second is in Wu, and the third is in Chen, and the fourth is in Yin."

Liu Mangfan immediately took over the conversation, "Fifty-one, six days of Lashio, sacrifices are offered to evil without integrity, this is a situation of ghost separation, Xiaokang, you do know a lot, but Suluo Garden is only separated by gods and not ghosts, do you want to invite the five ghosts or mobilize the ghost soldiers? I have thought about all these, it's useless, it's useless unless the situation of god separation is broken."

"Don't get stuck in it. If you can't break it from the inside, why not open up the structure?" Kang Muang pointed to the unfinished foundation opposite the Suluo Garden. It looked like the ground had just been broken not long ago.

call--

After slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air, Liu Mangfan suddenly felt enlightened.

"Well-off."

"Ok?"

"You've become a bad person."

"People have to make progress."
