A Feng Shui Master’s Guide to Cultivation

Chen Xiao was a Feng Shui master before his death. He changed his fate to save his master, but died of old age.

When he opened his eyes, he came to a world of immortal cultivation where there...

Chapter 120 Spiritual Tea for Guests

The host and the guest sat down, and the servants served new tea. Hu Qingyun started the conversation. He said, "I wonder where the two of you are in heaven? Why did you come to Jincheng?"

It was the first time that Chen Xiao was asked where his hometown was when chatting with a cultivator. It must be said that this was an excellent way to inquire about someone's background indirectly, and it was not very offensive.

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "I was born in Dai Country, which is thousands of miles away from here. I am a casual cultivator. This time I passed by Jincheng while traveling. I plan to stay in your country for a while and continue on my journey after the cold winter."

Hu Qingyun nodded, "So Master Chen is from Dai Country. It is said that Dai Country has many mountains and trees, and is rich in various precious trees. Master Chen, who was born as a casual cultivator, has traveled thousands of miles. It is really admirable." Then he turned to Xi Yunting and smiled kindly, "Is this Immortal Master Xi also from Dai Country?"

Xi Yunting would naturally not let the scene hosted by Chen Xiao get cold. He said calmly: "I am from another realm. I met Brother Xiao during my training and then traveled together."

Although he said this, he did not reveal any information. Hu Qingyun was not annoyed, but praised Xi Yunting's demeanor and bearing. But he secretly guessed that Xi Yunting must have a good background. Chen Xiao was a casual cultivator and also came from a mortal country, so it was unlikely that he had a deep background. Then the one who could take out the top-grade spiritual tea for daily use must be this mysterious Master Xi.

Hu Qingyun stopped when he saw that the other party was not willing to reveal too much about himself. If he asked too much, it would only cause resentment. Hu Qingyun said seriously: "In addition to apologizing, I came here today to ask Master Chen to help. How to perform this Feng Shui technique?"

Speaking of his business, Chen Xiao also looked serious: "It depends on what the client wants, so that we can make targeted arrangements."

Hu Qingyun hesitated for a moment, then thought that Director Hong had already revealed most of the information, and it was meaningless for him to hide it in front of these two people. He said, "My father is about to step down as the Lord of Jincheng, and the preferred successor has not yet been determined. I really want to know what to do to benefit me the most."

Hu Qingyun's words were very clever. He did not directly say that he wanted to be the city lord. And although he wanted to take the position of city lord now, if he could not get it, he would accept a result that was beneficial to him.

Chen Xiao had seen clients like Hu Qingyun before. He only had a vague understanding of Feng Shui masters and always thought that using Feng Shui would be a panacea. Chen Xiao said, "Mr. Hu, you asked me about this matter, but I'm afraid you found the wrong person. You should find a wise man to give you advice. I'm just a Feng Shui master, and all I can do is to arrange the Feng Shui according to the client's requirements. After all, Feng Shui can only play a supporting role, and if the client has no intention and no action, even if Feng Shui is arranged, it will not have any effect."

Hu Qingyun was a little disappointed when he first heard what Chen Xiao said. Then he thought about it and realized that Chen Xiao was telling him the truth. Although Feng Shui has some miraculous effects, it also depends on people's will and actions. Feng Shui is not a wish. If you have a goal but no action, pie will not fall from the sky.

After the disappointment, Hu Qingyun gained some confidence in Feng Shui. If people could just make a wish and wait for it to come true, it would not be a magic trick, but a crooked way of taking shortcuts.

Hu Qingyun smiled and said, "It turns out that I misunderstood. Then, Master Chen, if I want to go one step further and become the new master of Jincheng, can Feng Shui help me?"

Chen Xiao said: "There is a category in Feng Shui called "promoting official promotion and nobility", maybe it can help Mr. Hu."

Hu Qingyun said, "Then please ask Master Chen to help me get promoted to an important position. I wonder how much Master Chen wants as a reward?"

Chen Xiao smiled faintly and said, "When a Feng Shui master does Feng Shui for others, he provides a Feng Shui plan. The client needs to cooperate with him on how to arrange the situation. He can dispatch his subordinates or find the required items. As for the reward, it depends on whether the client thinks it is worth it."

Although Chen Xiao didn't say it explicitly, Hu Qingyun still understood his implication. The fee for hiring a Feng Shui master to do Feng Shui would probably be very expensive. Hu Qingyun nodded calmly and said, "Master Chen, please rest assured. I still have a lot of wealth."

After all, he is the son of the city lord, how could he not even come up with such a sum of money? Regardless of whether it is effective or not, it is worth investing to make friends with these two people.

Chen Xiao said: "How to arrange Feng Shui depends on Mr. Hu's birthday and spiritual root attributes. The best place to arrange it is Mr. Hu's house. It is best to be the study or bedroom of the house."

Once the first step is taken, the rest is nothing. Hu Qingyun quickly informed Chen Xiao of the information he needed, and also told Chen Xiao about the innate spiritual roots of the rest of the family, especially his two brothers. He had top-grade water and wood spiritual roots, Hu Qingzhi had five middle-grade spiritual roots, and Hu Qinglu had the worst three spiritual roots, middle-grade.

Judging from his spiritual roots alone, everyone would think that Hu Qingyun was wasting his talent if he didn't focus on cultivation. However, Hu Qingyun was not interested in this at the moment, so Chen Xiao had no choice but to do what the client asked.

After Chen Xiao took note of it carefully, he said to him, "If possible, arrange for me to go to your residence in the near future to take a look. Only by knowing the actual location can we calculate which position is suitable. Also, if there is an artifact that is needed at that time, we must also go to find it specifically."

He had the new star positions calculated by the compass in hand, so it was relatively easy for him to find the location to place the Feng Shui objects according to the corresponding star positions. The difficulty now lay in the Feng Shui instruments.

Hu Qingyun frowned in embarrassment, and finally said: "Okay, I will arrange this matter, and ask my servant to come and deliver the message when the time comes."

After saying this, Hu Qingyun took Manager Hong and left. He needed to make arrangements in advance to bring the person back. Bringing a Feng Shui master and a Jindan-stage person home so suddenly would provoke the sensitive nerves of his two brothers.

After seeing the two off, Chen Xiao relaxed a little. He slumped down in the chair. Xi Yunting, who was sitting next to him, saw his lazy look and then looked at his own upright sitting posture. He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he didn't follow his example.

Chen Xiao took a sip of the tea on the table and praised, "The tea that big brother brought is really delicious. It's better than what I had at the Hanshan City Restaurant and at the banquet hosted by City Lord Han Yuanchun."

Xi Yunting pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "This spiritual tea is picked from the peak of the Chongxuan Mountain. The tea trees can only be picked once every ten years. After picking these spiritual teas, I stir-fry them myself. If you like it, I will make more for you next time."

Chen Xiao looked at Xi Yunting in surprise and swallowed the tea in his mouth. He sat up and asked hurriedly: "So this tea was made by big brother himself? If I had known, I would not let the people below use it to show off when entertaining guests!" Chen Xiao was immediately annoyed. How precious is the spiritual tea made by Xi Yunting himself! He should just keep it for himself.

Xi Yunting was too honest. He asked the other party if he had any good things to improve his taste and increase his bargaining chips in front of Hu Qingyun, and the other party directly took out the tea and gave it to him.

Xi Yunting smiled and said, "For show, this spiritual tea is the best. It is full of spiritual energy and cannot be compared with the spiritual tea in the Lesser Heaven Realm."

Not to mention the spiritual tea made by Xi Yunting himself, which is also a famous treasure in Chongxuan. Every time it is made, only the teacher and several heads and elders of the head office can share some.

Chen Xiao jumped up and said, "We can find other ways to keep up appearances, but we can't waste brother's tea like this." After saying that, he hurried to the tea room and was so stingy that he wanted to take back all the tea leaves.

Xi Yunting found it funny, but he had to get up and follow him to the tea room.

The tea room and the kitchen were in the same courtyard. When the servants working here saw Chen Xiao coming, they all bowed. This master was their breadwinner. If Xi Yunting hadn't rented this house, they wouldn't know where to find food.

Chen Xiao rushed into the tea room quickly. Unexpectedly, Tong Nuonuo and Tang Ru were there. One of them was holding a teapot and drinking water, while the other was putting tea leaves into a box.

"Why are you two here?" Chen Xiao was quick-witted and rushed over to hold Tong Nuonuo's hand. "What are you doing?"

Tong Nuonuo looked at him innocently and said, "A Rou said this tea tastes good. We've been running around outside these days and can't even have a sip of hot water. I thought since she likes this tea, I'd bring some with me so she can make some to quench her thirst when she's thirsty. What? Can't we take the tea leaves from the tea room away?"

Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting were busy, and Tong Nuonuo, who was used by Tang Ru as an assistant to help with the accounts, was also running around and disappeared. In fact, the two of them had to sell things while also looking for the evil cultivator who had disappeared without a trace. They didn't eat or drink well, and they went out early and came back late every day. They were much more tired than Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting. Chen Xiao had no way of saying no to such a reasonable request as wanting to bring some tea leaves from his residence to make water.

I can only blame myself for coming a little late.

Chen Xiao reluctantly took his hand back and asked, "There's not much tea here. I'll buy some more for you and some snacks."

Tong Nuonuo showed a warm smile on her round face, and said with great emotion: "No need, this little tea is enough."

Chen Xiao was feeling depressed, but Tang Ru was still saying, "This tea is not only delicious, but also contains a lot of spiritual energy, which can replenish some of the energy consumed. It's much better than what's sold on the market, and I don't know where it's produced."

Chen Xiao forced a smile. How could it be bad? It was produced in the back mountain of Chongxuan in Luochen Great Heaven Realm. He said weakly, "This tea comes from Great Heaven Realm, so it is naturally rare."
