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 30 Dangerous

"Dong Yu" refers to the Feng Shui school that Chen Xiao belonged to in his previous life, and "Fang Gu" is the name of Chen Xiao's master.

In the world where Chen Xiao lived in his previous life, Feng Shui had already gone abroad. Not only did it flourish in Southeast Asia, but it also had many followers. In the European and American countries across the ocean, some Feng Shui masters had crossed the ocean in their early years, and later took root and formed new schools.

Dongyu is not a very famous school among the dozens of Feng Shui schools. Because there has never been any famous Feng Shui master in history, nor has there been any achievements. The most outstanding one is probably Fang Gu, who was famous throughout the country.

When Fang Gu was young, the domestic environment was complex and changeable. Many people sought help from Feng Shui, and the entire Feng Shui industry was quite active. Therefore, the manufacture of Feng Shui instruments was also particularly prosperous. Fang Gu's compass was made for him by a master at that time.

When Chen Xiao was born, the turmoil ended and the Feng Shui industry, which had suffered a severe blow, began to regain vitality. However, the lost inheritance of the masters who died in the hardships would never come back. This led to the fact that when Chen Xiao became famous, no one could make a fine compass like the one used by Fang Gu.

Chen Xiao's compass is not bad, but it is still not as spiritual as the compass used by Fang Gu. Chen Xiao once shamelessly pestered his master to borrow it. As a result, the master who usually took good care of him, held the compass childishly and refused to let go. He even joked that this compass was his half body, and he would not give it to anyone while he was alive, and he would take it into the coffin after his death.

Chen Xiao knew very well that a good compass that had been with a Feng Shui master for a long time would even be tainted with the master's fortune. Perhaps his master was not joking at that time, but really wanted to bury the compass with him. So, from then on, Chen Xiao never mentioned the idea of ​​using it again, and instead treated his compass with great care.

Chen Xiao was very confused at this moment. Why did he suddenly dream about his master's compass?

He was thinking when he suddenly heard a faint sound. The slight sound was like the muffled sound of a thick-soled cloth shoe falling from a height.

Chen Xiao's heart skipped a beat. He cautiously took out a dagger from the secret compartment of the bed frame, and grabbed a rope on the side of the bed with his other hand.

Apart from the first sound, no matter how hard Chen Xiao listened, he could not hear any other sound. However, Chen Xiao did not dare to relax his vigilance, but instead became more focused.

The weather was not very good that night, it was a little cloudy, which made the clouds in the sky diffusely reflect the light from other places, so it didn't look very dark.

Chen Xiao stared at the window with bated breath, and found a dark shadow slowly projected onto the window screen. It looked like an unidentified person with bad intentions was approaching. The person's hand was groping on the window, and he was about to use some tricks. It was probably smoke, or simply poison. Anyway, Chen Xiao didn't believe that this person had any good intentions.

Suddenly, the person outside the window cried out in pain, which attracted the panicked voice of another person. Chen Xiao's heart skipped a beat. There was not only one person outside, but also an accomplice.

He pulled the rope decisively, and the gong hanging in a hidden corner on the side of the wall made a series of loud and rapid "bang! bang! bang!" sounds.

Chen Xiao jumped off the bed with a dagger in his hand, without even putting on his shoes. He ran to the door and shouted at the top of his lungs: "There's a fire! There's a fire!!!"

It was late at night and the sound of the gong could be heard from far away, which immediately alerted the security team on duty at night. In addition, Chen Xiao's yard was not big, and there was a wall on both sides of the neighbor's house. On weekdays, any quarrel in the family could be heard by the neighbors. He shouted so loudly that the sleeping neighbors were immediately awakened.

Two people outside the yard cursed, and one of them shouted angrily: "The wind is strong, run!" Then they ran towards the gate with the sound of hurried footsteps.

Hearing that the two people outside were running out and had no intention of rushing in to take him hostage, Chen Xiao finally felt relieved.

He was shocked and frightened, and at the same time very angry. How could a robber dare to break into a house and steal, or even kill and rob! Chen Xiao was particularly unwilling to let these people get away for nothing. He opened the door, ran to the kitchen, and lit the torches that he had prepared for night lighting. He held one in each hand, and the fiery red light immediately illuminated the courtyard.

The two robbers had already opened the gate and ran out. Chen Xiao rushed out of the open door. He stood on the street, waving a torch and shouting loudly: "Catch the robbers! There are robbers——"

By this time, because he was beating the gong and shouting "the fire is gone", almost everyone in the street, young and old, was alarmed. The doors of every household were opened, and many men ran out carrying basins of water and torches.

The scene seemed quite large, and the fleeing robbers were frightened. They dodged and dodged all the way, and their speed slowed down. As a result, they ran into the hands of the security team who came over. None of them escaped, and all of them were caught.

Many people did not sleep well that night. This neighborhood was inhabited by peaceful people, and there had not been such a vicious incident of robbery in the past few decades.

Aunt Huang and her family, who were on good terms with Chen Xiao, surrounded Chen Xiao and showed concern for him. Other neighbors gathered outside, talking at once, cursing and condemning the gang of bastards.

Fortunately, the security team caught the man quickly, otherwise no one would have been able to sleep peacefully again.

As the victim, Chen Xiao was invited by the security team to cooperate with the investigation. He stayed at the security team's station for half a day, and the robbers who were caught and interrogated confessed everything.

There were not two people in this group, but three. In addition to the two who jumped into the yard, there was another person outside who was keeping watch. These three people were three idle rogues in the county town who liked to visit brothels and casinos on weekdays.

The eldest brother was in bad luck and owed a large sum of money to the casino. If he didn't pay it back within the deadline, the casino owner would sell him to a dark mine to dig. He didn't want to be threatened by the casino owner anymore, and wanted to run away but didn't want to suffer. The eldest brother made up his mind and discussed with his two younger brothers. He planned to make a big fortune in the county city and run away with the money. After choosing and choosing, the three of them set their sights on Chen Xiao, who was alone.

It was also because Chen Xiao had attracted too much attention recently. There were so many people coming and going, and all of them were wealthy people. The three low-level thugs had no idea about housing skills. They only knew that Chen Xiao was a celebrity in the circle of wealthy businessmen in the county city and had made a lot of money. After further investigation, they found out that Chen Xiao had no relatives or friends, so they chose him as their target.

The security team found a bayonet with a blood groove on it and a pack of poison cigarettes on them. They were determined to kill without mercy!

Pang Hemu, who had rushed over after hearing the news, was also terrified, and kept complaining to Chen Xiao: "I told you to move to a bigger house and hire a few martial artists to guard the house. If you had listened to me, this wouldn't have happened!"

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm single, there's no need to live in a big house."

Pang Hemu slapped the table angrily and sat down next to Chen Xiao. He said, "Then you should at least hire a martial artist to protect you. With your current wealth, you can give him double the treatment and you won't have trouble hiring a powerful martial artist. Although you have set up traps on the doors and windows and installed a gong in the yard, what if the next time you meet someone who is not after money but specifically after your life? No matter how many heads you have, they will not be enough to lose!"

Chen Xiao sighed and said, "This time it was indeed dangerous. I didn't think it through."

Although he hid a dagger in the secret compartment, and also arranged safety devices such as mechanisms, traps, and a gong that would automatically ring when a rope was pulled, as Pang Hemu said, if the other party was determined to cause both sides to suffer losses, no matter how many tricks he had, it would be useless.

"Don't worry about this matter. I will make sure to find a highly skilled martial artist for you." Pang Hemu said with a big heart.

"Then I'll leave it to you, boss." Chen Xiao had no choice but to agree.

When he got home, the hired help had already cleaned up the house. Chen Xiao sat on the chair in the study with a gloomy face. If he was frightened last night, then now Chen Xiao only felt angry and powerless.

A group of ignorant robbers rushed to the Feng Shui master's house and killed people without any scruples. This would have been impossible in the previous life. That's because Feng Shui has been deeply rooted in people's hearts and in every aspect of life for thousands of years. The people's understanding of Feng Shui masters has formed an invisible force. Let people know that Feng Shui masters are not easy to mess with. If you hurt a Feng Shui master, you will face the revenge of his fellow masters.

Although there are many schools of Feng Shui masters, and they are divided by region, they are still very united when it comes to problems that directly endanger human life.

In the final analysis, those people dared to attack Chen Xiao because Chen Xiao no longer had that invisible and powerful force behind him. He was alone and easy to bully!

This made Chen Xiao, who was proud of his identity and historical heritage as a Feng Shui master, particularly angry. He thought angrily that one day he would make the name of Feng Shui masters resound throughout the world, letting everyone know that Feng Shui masters are not to be trifled with!

Perhaps his inner desire was too strong. Even though it was broad daylight outside, he did not sleep and his consciousness returned to the dark place in his dream yesterday.

However, this time he opened his eyes, and his vision was divided into two overlapping layers, one of which was the furnishings in the study in front of him, and the other was darkness.

After a while, a bright light appeared in the darkness. Chen Xiao, who had already noticed something was wrong, was not awakened this time. He slowly approached, and the golden compass was getting closer and closer.
