Chapter 2: Descendants and Evils
"Ni Ge, what is that circle you drew for? Why did Mr. Feng shake his head when he went in?" My cousin walked up to me and asked curiously.
"Cousin, there are things to be seen in this circle. Mr. Feng should understand it by now." I said with a smile.
My cousin didn't believe it, so he trotted over and stood in the circle. He was immediately shocked by the cold air and shivered. Then he shouted, "Ah! Why is that big willow tree still there?"
My second uncle also went in curiously. Sure enough, at the location where the willow tree was originally moved, a large willow tree was swaying its branches in the wind. There was nothing outside the circle.
Now, everyone looked at Mr. Feng strangely.
Old Master Feng frowned, and after a long while he said unconvincedly: "Well, even if the spirit of the willow tree remains here, I will use a red rope to suppress it, lay a foundation, and then dig out the roots. This place can still be inhabited, right? This still doesn't mean that this is a place where yin gathers."
This is stubbornness! I sighed, "Mr. Feng, I respect you as an elder, but there can be no mistakes in Feng Shui. If I had allowed you to suppress it with the red rope before, it would have been impossible to rearrange this area! Not only is my second uncle's family constantly in trouble, but your descendants will also be unable to escape bad luck!"
Old Master Feng's face turned ugly again: "Little kid, don't think that you can talk nonsense here just because of the little skills you learned in Qingyun Temple. This is not a place where masters are killed. Even if it is, I have never heard that it will have an impact on the descendants of Feng Shui masters!"
Humph! I was once again irritated by this stubborn old man: "This is not a place to kill a master, but you have turned Yin and Yang into a place where Yin gathers. If Yin and Yang are not connected, Qian and Kun will naturally be reversed. In other words, noon is the time when the Yin energy here is the heaviest. According to the five palace directions, the circle belongs to Qian. It is already mid-morning, but the willow spirit can still be seen. This is the proof."
"You used a red rope to suppress it! How ridiculous! The red rope can drive away evil spirits, but the world is turned upside down. What's the difference between the red rope and the soul-calling flag? Are Feng Shui flags for ghosts? What's even more ridiculous is that you moved the willow tree and brought disaster to your descendants without realizing it."
These words stunned everyone around. What could this Descendant Demon have to do with the willow tree?
I looked at Mr. Feng who was also stunned, and then continued, "Sui Sha, stays in the four seasons for a long time, and becomes the Yin energy of the four seasons. It wanders around the world, and cannot be penetrated in the places where it is governed. If you accidentally offend it when building a camp or migrating, your descendants and livestock will suffer. Mr. Feng should have seen all this."
"You you! Alas! Secretary Fu, your nephew is the real expert. I am ashamed. Goodbye!" Old Master Feng kept saying "you" for a long time, and finally had nothing to say, so he just threw his sleeves and was about to leave.
I stopped my cousin who was about to argue and said, "Forget it, cousin. Mr. Feng is old. After what happened today gets out, I guess no one will go to him for feng shui anymore."
Looking at Mr. Feng's back as he left alone, I didn't feel happy.
Mr. Feng has been studying Feng Shui all his life, but in the end it was all in vain.
But I didn't regret it. Chinese people believe in leaving a way out for others, and don't do anything to the extreme. But in the field of Feng Shui, if you don't master the skills, you will only harm others. If I don't point it out today, I will harm my second uncle's family. I'm afraid that more people will be harmed in the future.
My second uncle was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. My relatives and friends looked at me with admiration. Even my second uncle felt proud.
"Hahaha! Ni Ge, it's true that a good teacher produces good students. Students from Qingyun Temple are different!" My second uncle smiled happily and patted my shoulder.
"Uncle, look at what you said. No matter how different I am, I am still your nephew."
After hearing my reply, my second uncle sighed with great relief: "It's a pity that my poor sister and brother-in-law can't see our Ni Ge's ability."
"Uncle, is the big willow tree that was moved still there?" Thinking about Uncle, this homestead has to be built eventually.
"Oh, I know. I was the one who had the big willow tree moved away. Now it is in the backyard of the old house. I had originally planned to chop it up and use it as firewood. How come it is still useful?" My cousin jumped out and said.
"Cousin, take me there."
This willow tree has been off the ground for a week. If it dies alive, there will be no room for maneuver on this homestead. If the descendants are born with bad luck, even the best house will be eroded by bad luck.
Seeing my anxious look, my cousin realized that something was wrong, so he immediately got in the car with me and drove straight to my second uncle's old house.
In the backyard of the old house, the willow tree, which was more than ten meters tall, lay on the ground. Its branches were limp and weak. Most of its leaves had already turned yellow. Even the mottled bark had mostly fallen off.
"Ni Ge, this willow tree looks like it's almost dead. What are you looking at it for?" my cousin asked curiously.
"Cousin, stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and get a brazier. Light a fire and put a brick on it." I quickly stopped my cousin. With just one sentence, the willow tree withered even more.
If it was just an ordinary willow tree, it would be fine. But this willow tree had spirit and human nature. After hearing what my cousin said, even its will to live was weakened a little.
If this willow tree is completely dead, then it will be a real problem. There is a saying that a willow branch will make a ghost three inches shorter after hitting it. You can imagine how powerful the willow tree is. What's more, it has cultivated its spirit. If the descendants become evil spirits, there is almost no solution.
Fire basins are not rare in the countryside. Even in cities, they are common in places like funeral homes. Stepping over a fire basin can separate yin and yang and remove evil spirits from the body. When walking on the road at night in the countryside, or when feeling unlucky, people will take out a fire basin and step over it to get rid of the bad luck.
"Okay!" My cousin turned around and came back with a brazier and bricks.
I bent down and placed the bricks on the burning brazier. I stood up and looked at the willow tree in front of me solemnly.
"Many sentient beings have grievances, and the grievances are deep and difficult to resolve. They are formed in one life and cannot be resolved in three lives. I will now pass on a wonderful Dharma to resolve all grievances. If you listen to my recitation with a sincere heart, the grievances will dissipate by themselves."
I finished reciting the spell to resolve the grudges. I stepped on the Seven Star Steps. I pinched my fingers and circled the fire basin. I stomped my feet and shouted, "Hurry up and break it!"
I heard a cracking sound, and the bricks on the brazier were instantly covered with cracks by my finger, but there was no sign of them breaking.
Alas! I sighed. It seems that the resentment of this willow tree is too deep.
"Willow tree, willow tree, I know they shouldn't have left you here. They were wrong. Now I'll ask them to move you back to your original place and let your best gardener take care of you day and night. After you recover, the descendants of the Fu family will take care of you for a long time. What do you think?" The curse of removing the grudge did not remove the willow's grudge. I had no choice but to discuss it with the willow tree. Fortunately, the willow tree has understood human nature.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a soft "puff" sound. The bricks on the brazier finally broke.
"Cousin, please call someone to replant the willow tree as it was before." I breathed a sigh of relief. The evil of descendants had finally come to an end.
My cousin was already impressed by what I had done, and he immediately took out his phone and shouted in no uncertain terms: "Hey, Xiao Wang, drive your crane to my old house quickly. Bring back the big willow tree."
My cousin put down the phone and said to me, "My cousin, you are really a living god with this ability! I was jealous of you before, but now it seems that I was overestimating my own abilities! You are really amazing!"
Haha! My cousin's words made me chuckle. "Cousin, it's almost noon, let's go back quickly so as not to delay the foundation-laying time."
A few minutes later, we returned to the open space of the homestead.
The second uncle ran over happily and said, "Ni Ge, you take charge now. Everyone will listen to you."
"Uncle, it's nothing. Ask the mason to move the house to the southeast. The original gate can be used as a side yard. The big willow tree will be delivered soon. Uncle, I'll trouble you to find the best carpenter to take care of it. Just make the tree come alive. From now on, the tree will be in the backyard to protect the family. Of course, Uncle will also need to take care of it over a long period of time."
My second uncle looked at me with approval, then turned to look at my cousin. He sighed, "Look how capable your cousin is. It would be nice if you had half of his ability!"
After sighing, the second uncle patted his butt and went to direct the masons, leaving the cousin with a bitter face, sighing there.
"My cousin is not human, how can I compare to him?"
Hehehe! I burst into laughter immediately.
Everything was ready. The Feng Shui flag was inserted smoothly at the gate. A string of firecrackers crackled, accompanied by the roar of machinery. The foundation construction finally began.
"Ni Ge, it's okay now. Let's go to the VIP building and wait." My cousin came over and whispered.
I knew that my cousin was worried that my second uncle would be free in the future, so he rolled his eyes again. This was an excuse to run away. I immediately followed my cousin to the VIP building.
This VIP building is the most luxurious restaurant in the county. The lower three floors are used for dining. The upper seven floors are not accessible to everyone.
My second uncle was the county magistrate's secretary. He reserved a small hall on the sixth floor.
Ten minutes later, my second uncle sat down in the small hall with his relatives and friends. He happily picked up a glass of wine and said, "Today is the day I lay the foundation for my new house. Thank you all for coming to support us. We are all family, so everyone should eat and drink well! Haha, I have something to do, so I won't accompany you all."
My second uncle works in the government, so it was not surprising for these relatives that he was so busy with work.
I am not at home all year round, so there is nothing to talk about with these relatives. When I was about to leave after eating and drinking with my cousin, my second uncle called. "Ni Ge, come out and go with your second uncle."
When we came out of the VIP building, a black sedan was already waiting at the door.
"What's up, Uncle?" I asked in confusion while sitting in the car. I didn't think I could help with my uncle's work.
