Chapter 0004: Soul Locking Stake
Master He Jiu inquired eagerly: "How is it?"
Liu Feihe clapped his hands and said: "The reason this residence has been plagued by strange occurrences is that someone has tampered with it! Let’s go, let’s see if we can dig up anything around the perimeter of the residence. If my guess is correct, we should be able to unearth the Soul Locking Stake!"
Liu Feihe was taken aback: "Does Ninth Master know who is scheming behind the scenes?"
What has happened?" As soon as Liu Feihe entered the room, he noticed the unusual situation in the living room
Liu Feihe was momentarily taken aback: "Are you saying that the Soul Locking Pillar has already been excavated? And who is this young gentleman?"
As soon as I heard this, I realized that this person was Liu Feihe, whom Master He Jiu had mentioned before. It is said that he is a renowned feng shui master in Zhengzhou, and accompanying him are his four major disciples.
A Biao rushed forward with a sullen face, preparing to place down the paper figure, when suddenly, a burst of flames erupted with a "hiss" sound
Life-sized and quite realistic, it wore a pitch-black wig, had a noose of hemp rope around its neck, and was suspended from a brass chandelier
However, Master He Jiu suddenly crumpled the paper figure's head into a ball, jumped up, and shouted angrily towards the door: "So it was you, this beast! Come on, come and kill me! Let's see today whether I die or you, you beast!"
Is the face painted on this paper figure that of Master He Jiu's daughter, the second young lady of the He family?
Master He Jiu was filled with a mix of sorrow and anger. He shouted loudly and lunged forward to embrace the paper head, gritting his teeth, his whole body trembling.
Liu Feihe smiled and nodded: "A few days ago, Liu came to consult with Master Jiu about the feng shui. At that time, I felt that Master Jiu's ancestral home had an exceptional layout, and there were no issues regarding the feng shui. However, there were a few concerns lingering in my mind.
"Ninth Master, who has angered you?"
Who is it? Who did this? Lord He Jiu was furious, with veins bulging on his forehead.
"Miss Second, it is Miss Second!" A maid screamed in terror
Liu Feihe stated: "It can be said that some people are using feng shui techniques to harm others"
A Biao immediately exclaimed with joy: "Ninth Master, Master Liu has arrived!"
I just poked him and laughed, saying: "At least it's better than some people who can't even guess it."
When we arrived in the living room, we saw a glaring white object hanging from the large brass chandelier, while several servants huddled in the corner, trembling and displaying expressions of fear
This young friend, despite their youth, turns out to be a peer; I am surprised that you even discerned the Soul Locking Stake. Liu Feihe looked at me with some astonishment and asked, "I wonder how you figured it out?"
The other party set up a Soul Lock Array using a Soul Lock Post, which quietly disrupted the feng shui of the ancestral home of the Ninth Master, and formed a corridor for wandering souls. As a result, the negative energy proliferated, malevolent entities caused disturbances, leading to various incredible illusions that captivated the mind
Fortunately, A Biao reacted quickly and retreated in time. The paper figure ignited spontaneously without any wind, starting from the feet and in a moment it had burned up to the neck, with everything below the neck turning into black ash.
I was slightly taken aback; my impression of Lord He Jiu has always been one of considerable composure and calmness. Even when he previously dealt with the soul-locking stake, he did not exhibit such a loss of demeanor.
No wonder Master He Jiu would be so angry
Each stroke and line is surprisingly formed from the black ash gathered from the burning of paper figures
I see that the person speaking is tall, with a narrow forehead and long eyebrows, displaying an air of arrogance. According to the introduction by Master He Jiu just now, he is the chief disciple under Liu Feihe, named Meng something.
Behind him, there were four younger individuals, their expressions solemn.
After returning and reflecting on it thoroughly, I finally came to understand it. How do you see it, Ninth Master?
To discern the Soul Locking Pillar relies entirely on experience; even the master needs to ponder for three days. How much can this young lad, at his age, possibly perceive?
Master He Jiu was taken aback: "Important matter?"
I turned around and saw four large black characters on the floor, which had been polished to a shine by the servants
I sat in the position to the left of Master He Jiu, took a sip of hot tea, and selected a piece of mung bean cake. I saw Liu Feihe walk under the chandelier, turn around a few times, and then crouch down to closely examine the pile of paper ash on the ground.
This is the first time I have encountered a peer. Just as I was about to say a few humble words, I heard someone snicker and say, "Master, this person must have stumbled upon a dead mouse by chance, and just happened to hit the mark!"
That person trembled and said they did not know either, as most people had run outside to dig in the ground, leaving only a few of them busy in the living room and kitchen
I glanced at Master He Jiu, only to see his brows tightly furrowed, showing no signs of joy
I was just curious about who that beast he mentioned was, when the light outside the door flickered, and a black business vehicle drove through the courtyard gate and entered.
Master He Jiu immediately introduced me to the other party with a cheerful smile
The individual with the surname Liu demonstrates commendable proficiency, and their explanations are accurate without any omissions or errors
Master He Jiu invited everyone to take their seats, then instructed someone to serve tea and snacks, and only then did he carefully recount the strange events that had just occurred
Liu Feihe was slightly taken aback: "What?"
Blown by the wind, it turned around unsteadily, revealing a face that was painted with great detail, clearly depicting a beautiful woman with delicate features. However, placed on this paper figure, it appeared particularly eerie and sinister.
You ... ... '' The man with the surname Meng was furious and made a move to step forward, but was suppressed by a cold grunt from his master
Master He Jiu also regained his composure, revealing a smile as he stepped forward to greet the visitor, engaging in a round of pleasantries
In the blink of an eye, this thing appeared, and no one could see exactly how it was hung up there
The time of death has come
Look quickly! Suddenly, someone exclaimed in horror.
Master He Jiu slammed the table and said, "So, are all the strange occurrences in the room previously the result of someone's schemes?"
Liu Feihe shook his head and sighed: "However, the person who acted this way is truly malicious, actually using such a deadly feng shui formation to annihilate an entire family, not fearing the retribution that may befall them!"
Master He slammed his hand on the table with a loud bang and said sternly: "This person is not merely malicious; he is truly worse than a beast! Back then, I knew this scoundrel would not die so easily. Heh heh, he has indeed returned, very good, very good!"
"Ninth Master, let's set aside other matters for now and attend to the important business first!" Liu Feihe said, pulling Ninth Master He by the hand.
Master He Jiu is busy mediating, please invite both parties to enter the room for a detailed discussion
I observed that the situation was unusual, so I called over a servant and asked him when this paper figure was hung up.
At this point, he paused for a moment and then reassured, "However, since the Soul Locking Pillar has been removed, the Wandering Soul Corridor will gradually disintegrate. At most, in half a month, this residence will be restored to its original state"
Master Liu indeed possesses extraordinary foresight
A group of people got off the vehicle, at the forefront was a man with a square face and medium build, approximately in his fifties, with a small tuft of white hair on his forehead. His appearance was quite imposing, and upon hearing the scolding from He Jiuye, he smiled and inquired in a soft voice.
Strangely, the fire suddenly extinguished, leaving only a paper figure's head that rolled down and was blown around on the ground by the wind
A Biao said with a smile: "We have just unearthed three Soul Locking Stakes. According to the young gentleman, there should be thirty-six in total, and my subordinates are still busy over there."
Everyone was stunned by this magical and mysterious scene
Upon closer inspection, good heavens, this turns out to be a paper figure
