Soul Lamp
he future. My father said that the neighborhood aunts, daughters-in-law, mothers-in-law, and young girls all liked him.He turned eleven soon, and my dad was running around checking out private schools...Since Xiao Shanming was in the car, I didn't feel comfortable asking Jiang Qiyun why he was acting so "abnormally".
I stared at him, but he just gave me a smirk and leaned against the car door, closing his eyes to rest. He ignored me.
...
He was now being housed in a villa complex in a secluded, quiet neighborhood.
Wǔjīnglǐ was so flustered that he broke out in a cold sweat. He, along with the official's wife, Master Hé, and Master Liúdào, stood outside the gate.
This is a small space for an elevator entrance. As soon as we opened the elevator door, all four of us were startled.
"Well, well, what brings you esteemed 'elders' to such a state" My brother raised an eyebrow and asked with a hint of mockery.
As soon as Master Wu saw us, he hurried forward and whispered, "How come you're only here now We just went in to check. Master He and Daoist Liu wanted to use magic to exorcise the evil spirit, but my nephew managed to break free and ran out of the room! He was smashing things around inside, and attacked us whenever we got close. We were afraid of provoking him further, so we retreated..."
I hurriedly asked, "Aren't you afraid he'll jump out the window How could you leave him alone inside"
Wǔ Jīnglǐbushi said hurriedly, "I have already closed all the security bars!"
I stood by the window and looked down. This is the third floor, not particularly high. There's a green lawn below, so even if I fell, I wouldn't be in too much danger.
"Open the door, let's go in and have a look," I said to Wu Jingli.
As soon as the anti-theft door swung open, a faint chill emanated from behind. My brother, as usual, pasted three talismans to form a triangular formation to seal off the sinister spirits entering and exiting.
He drew out his Qiankun Sword and, biting down on the copper talisman, plunged into it.
I tilted my head slightly, catching a glimpse of the person standing in this "entrance garden" out of the corner of my eye.
The Madam's face was ashen, she clenched her trembling hands tightly and remained silent; Wu Jingli was sweating profusely, his breathing erratic. Just now, he called us, but it was Liu Daochang who told us to come quickly, I guess he was stuttering.
Master Liu wore a solemn expression. He saw my gaze and lowered his head slightly, seeming a bit embarrassed.
As for Master He, he remained impassive. I saw his eyes narrow slightly and flicker with a glint of light.
He definitely knows something… I frowned slightly, keeping my eyes on him.
My brother and Xiao Shanming went in one after another. I stood at the door and beckoned to Wu Jingli: "Wu Jingli, please come over here. I have some things I want to ask you."
Wǔ Jīnglǐ, trembling with fear, walked to the door. Seeing that there was no danger in the hall, he let out a breath of relief and asked, "Miss Mù, what would you like to know"
I turned around and closed the door, then asked in a low voice, "Which layout for attracting wealth and prosperity was designed for you"
"Master He, didn't I already say that"
"Is he really a famous master here Did you know him before"
"Wujingli said with some difficulty: 'Where would ordinary people like us get to know these masters of esoteric arts We hear about them from various sources, through friends' introductions. My friend told me that Master He was very famous, but how exactly... who can say for sure'"
This is indeed the norm in our line of work. True masters are unknown, while fame-seeking and profit-driven "masters" can be found everywhere.
I took out my phone and pointed at the planning map I had just taken: "This is the planning map I just took in the park area. The so-called 'wealth gathering' layout does indeed require a 'treasure trove,' which is commonly known as the feng shui wealth spot."
Wu Jingli narrowed his eyes, squinting at my phone under the dim hallway lamp.
Industrial zones, startup parks, and similar areas are often designed with logistics in mind. This means they tend to have more roads and entrances than other types of developments.
The current design mainly focuses on creativity, features, and convenience. Feng shui is not a primary concern.
"You have three questions here. The first is the door, the second is the road, and the third... is this golden acupuncture point being split in two." I pointed at the blueprint.
"Gate...what's wrong with the gate What's wrong with the road" Wu Jingli looked at me in confusion.
"Any establishment, especially yours with a factory area, becomes a large character formation like "井" for the sake of convenience in transportation. Your main road directly connects to the back gate and side door," I said.
This is a placeholder.
"Isn't this normal" Wu Jingli was probably just starting to act like a "businessman" after becoming his brother-in-law. He still lacked experience.
“This is not normal. Wealth does not gather here because the main entrance has two side doors and a back door, with fewer entrances than exits. Wealth does not gather here because things come and go quickly. Moreover, your sales department building is located in a bustling street area with constant comings and goings. This creates an unfavorable feng shui where wealth cannot accumulate. Even at home, money should not be placed near doors or windows, let alone in such a large industrial park.”
Wǔ Jīnglǐ listened, dumbfounded. After a long pause, he asked with a hint of doubt, "Is that really true"
"If you don't believe me, you can go to the south, a region known for its attention to feng shui, and investigate. Many large industrial parks and material markets have open areas as soon as you enter, with roads branching off to the sides rather than straight ahead." I said seriously.
"Then I've already built the entire city... The early stages weren't bad either..." Wu Jingli wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"The AB area is good, but what about the CD area It's pitch black and cold and desolate. Because the CD area is near the back door and two side doors, and construction is still ongoing outside the back door, it leaks wealth and energy. Even if you move in, at best your business will be slow, at worst..." I looked at the dark living room without lights and whispered, "Sir, are you planning to move your office to the C area"
Wǔjīnglǐ, that big man, shivered and asked in a hoarse voice: "Is C District really haunted!"
“I haven't gone in to see for myself, so I wouldn't dare to speak out of turn. However, this young master's behavior and mannerisms, in our words, are strange and erratic. He must have provoked something.”
Wujingli was a little afraid, but also a little excited. He raised his hand as if to shake mine, Jiang Qiyun glared coldly at him from behind me. He was knocked back half a meter by an invisible force and crashed into the dressing mirror next to the shoe cabinet!
With a crash! The mirror shattered into a thousand pieces.
I was taken aback and turned to look at Jiang Qiyun.
The Emperor coldly snorted, as if he thought he had been too lenient.
"You, you, Miss Mu, what kind of superpower is this!" Wu Jingli was covered in shards of glass, so scared his legs went weak, he tried to crawl up several times but couldn't.
I dare not pull him, I'm afraid that His Majesty would have him fly a few more meters.
"Hissss..." a strange breath, we both turned our heads, looking towards the room.
This is a spacious single-story house, at least two hundred square meters. We were talking in the entrance hall, and the sound of broken glass seemed to startle something —
At the far end of the spacious living room, there was an open kitchen. Above the refrigerator, a shadow loomed, its eyes reflecting the light from the hallway, stealthily watching this way and that.
"Damn it, where is it!" My brother just searched the whole room and surprisingly found it on top of the fridge!
That space is so small, how could it possibly fit an adult!
"Ahhhh----!" Wu Jingli was so scared that he peed his pants. His legs were weak and he couldn't stand up after several attempts. His hands were also scratched with glass shards, blood staining the tiles.
"Hiss... hiss..." The blood of the living always stimulates the evil thoughts of a beast.
My brother and Xiao Shanming flanked it, hoping to seize the opportunity to capture it.
But the space on top of his refrigerator, so small and narrow, how could he possibly make it work
"Brother Yunfan, why don't you step on my shoulders to get up" Xiao Shanming said honestly.
My brother gave him a look: "You think this is catching a cat He's not going to run away, is he A grown man charging down like that could just knock us over."
"What shall we do"
“Push the fridge, I bet he won’t move. If he doesn’t move, he’ll be knocked down by the door frame.” My brother, teeth gritted on the hilt of his sword, pressed against the wall and entered the kitchen.
The refrigerator hummed. The thing on top immediately became tense, letting out a "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…" sound like a broken fan.
“Get your ass down here!” My brother and Xiao Shanming shoved the refrigerator, sending it crashing into the door frame. The things on top of it came tumbling down, bouncing once before flying over the sofa and straight toward me—u've been working too hard and depleted your vital energy. You should take good rest... A woman should cultivate her essence and prepare for childbirth, avoiding overexertion before giving birth.""The...
