Without a second thought, I thought, "This person must be trying to achieve some ulterior motive, so he used the excuse of mining copper to disrupt the Feng Shui blessings of Tianluo Mountain."

The uncle nodded in appreciation and said, "Okay, the fact that you can think of this shows that you are not stupid."

I didn't think it was that great. In fact, I had already thought about this during the conversation with Chu Sen's father. Since Feng Shui can be built by people, it can naturally be broken by people. And since some people can build good Feng Shui for the sake of blessings, naturally there will be people who can break other people's Feng Shui and ruin their good deeds.

To put it bluntly, wherever there are people, there will be conflicts of interest, and this is unavoidable in any industry.

Chu Sen was a little confused and asked, "If the copper miner is here to destroy the Feng Shui of the Heaven and Earth, what benefit will he get from doing this?"

The uncle said, "There must be some benefit to him doing this. As for what exactly that benefit is, we're not involved, so we can't say for sure. But I personally think it's because the feng shui of Tianluo Mountain offends his taboo."

"Can Feng Shui violate people's taboos?" I asked.

"Of course, let's take the simplest example. If I repair Chu Sen's grandfather's tomb and his descendants benefit from it, this may seem like a good thing to Chu Sen's friends, but it would definitely not be a good thing to someone who is jealous of Chu Sen. And if that person is Chu Sen's competitor, he will definitely do everything he can to ruin the feng shui around the tomb ."

I nodded and said, "I understand. The taboos you are talking about are other people's taboos, not Chu Sen's."

The uncle said, "That's right. Of course, competitors are the most direct reason. But there's another, more terrifying reason. If the feng shui of Tianluo Mountain shows signs of a head-on collision, it means this place is likely to produce a great figure in the future. If someone doesn't want this to happen, the first thing they have to do is destroy the local feng shui. This is called severing the dragon vein. Throughout history, every time a dynasty changed, the newly formed court would sever the dragon vein of the old one, and they would do it at any cost."

I was shocked and said, "Could it be that the feng shui of Tianluo Mountain is..." I didn't dare to say anything more. This was really taboo and not something an ordinary person like me could say casually.

The uncle waved his hand and said, "It's not that Tianluoshan will definitely produce a great figure. Although the feng shui of this place has been completely destroyed, the general outline can still be seen. It is definitely not a place where dragons rise. Those who destroy the feng shui of Tianluoshan must be rich, but not necessarily powerful. I guess the feng shui of this place must have violated some taboo of his. However, it is difficult to say that a deserted place is dangerous. I advised your father to move the old man's grave for this reason."

"So we have to leave?" Chu Sen said.

"Your bad fortune this year is not due to the unrest in your ancestors' graves. The relocation of the graves is not because of something that has actually happened, but to avoid it."

"I understand, but you've seen my dad, he's very stubborn. What should I do if he refuses to move?"

"In traditional Chinese thought, relocating graves is something that should be avoided if possible. The dead are most important, and disturbing their spirits is considered unfilial. I understand your father's insistence, but if your grandfather's grave can be moved, it should be moved without delay."

As soon as I finished speaking, my phone rang. It was actually "Old Lump's Mom" who answered the phone. Her tone was filled with sorrow and misery as she said, "Little Big Brother, I know I shouldn't have provoked you, but seeing that my child is about to be sentenced, I can't bear it. Please, have a hand and help us mother and mother. Old Lump is my only child, and I can't live without him."

"Auntie, I'm going to say something you may not like, but I do think it would be a good thing if the government could help cure your son's temper. Otherwise, he might get into big trouble in the future, and then you'll never see him again."

"Well, you may not believe it, but this old boy of mine actually has a very good temper. He has been a three-good student and an outstanding student union cadre since childhood. I don't know how many awards he has received. After joining the bus company, he has been an advanced worker for several consecutive years. It's all thanks to his wife that such a good boy has become what he is today." The woman became more and more angry as she spoke.

I couldn't help but secretly laugh and said, "Auntie, no one would think that their son is inferior to others. I saw your son stabbing someone with a knife in the shower. Even if your wife did have an affair, it's not appropriate to put all the blame on her, right?"

"It was that bitch who harmed my son. I'm not shirking responsibility. Ever since he started having affairs with her, she hasn't been a good wife for a single day. She's been seducing other men everywhere. Not only is she a despicable woman herself, but all the women in her family are also not decent. Even the women in her village are not decent. They're a famous whore village in our area."

The way this woman slandered my daughter-in-law was really crazy. I became more and more annoyed and said unhappily, "It's not that I don't want to help with your son's matter. I have also told you where the difficulties are. Please don't call again. If the police are willing to accept my testimony, they will exonerate your son. If they don't use my testimony, it will be useless for me to go to court. You should understand this." After that, I hung up the phone.

"The mother of the perpetrator?" asked the uncle.

"Yes, I finally understand what 'protecting one's own son' means. Not only does he call his own son a bastard, but he also blames the woman for being unfaithful. He simply can't tell right from wrong," I said.

"Oh, is that what you think?" asked the uncle.

I immediately realized that he was talking about something else, so I asked tentatively, "Do you think what that woman said could be true?"

"I would rather believe what his mother said." said the uncle.

"I'm not trying to refute you, but I don't think it's appropriate to blame the woman for this. Look at the tattoos on his body, and the fact that he stabbed people with a knife. He doesn't look like a good person at all."

"Knife-wielding is definitely excessive, but you can't judge a person by their tattoos. People with tattoos are not necessarily gangsters."

"I'm not saying he's a bad person. I just think it might not be a bad thing for a young man like him to spend a few years in jail."

"I can assure you that the tattoos on his body are not meant to intimidate people. They're called 'Sui Fu,' similar to talismans, but expressed in the form of tattoos. Besides warding off evil spirits , some people in the Northeast also worship the Thunder God to protect their homes. A stable marriage is naturally a factor in family peace."

"Do you really believe what that woman said?"

"Carving the zodiac is an extremely painful process. It's not just a simple tattoo. The dyes used are special, even containing rosin water. Carving it on the body is excruciatingly painful, and this intense pain lasts for a long time. He has the fortitude to carve the words on his body, which shows that he loves his family very much, otherwise he wouldn't be so angry and irrational."

Uncle kept speaking up for "Old Lump," and I couldn't quite figure it out, so I said, "Uncle, are you saying I should testify for him? But Fatty has already threatened me. What if he really uses some dirty tricks?"

"As long as you do things with a clear conscience, why worry about these shameless villains?"

"You're right, but what if these people really resort to ruthless tactics, like hiring a few thugs to secretly hack me to pieces? What should I do?"

"Xiao Zhen, in this line of work, you have to believe that evil will be punished and good will prevail. You're scared when someone just threatens you. How are you going to make a living in this industry if you're so timid?"

"Uncle is right. If they dare to come and bully us, we will fight them until they are defeated." Chu Sen shouted at the top of his voice.

"Can you calm down? Are we the type of people who like to fight and kill?" I said.

"The hooligans are just a bunch of bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong. Why should we take them seriously?" said the uncle calmly.

"Even if we're not afraid of hooligans, this woman only knows how to shift all the blame onto her daughter-in-law. She can't be considered a good person, right?"

"What did she say about her daughter-in-law?"

So I repeated what the woman had said and said, "Uncle, even if her son and daughter-in-law have a feud, they wouldn't go so far as to scold everyone in the other village, right?"

"I really didn't think he was cursing." After saying that, the uncle thought for a moment and said to Chu Sen, "Let's put the matter of relocating your ancestral grave on hold for now. Let's go back to Shanghai and meet that mother. I think this matter may still be related to Feng Shui."

I was completely stunned and asked, "What does a knife attack have to do with Feng Shui?"

The uncle said: "I didn't say this matter has anything to do with Feng Shui. I was talking about the Bitch Village where his wife's family is."
