Chapter 171 Villa

Architecture has a great impact on people, but this influence is a long process, and it often takes several years or even decades to see the results.

This is what Feng Shui masters often say: blessings and misfortunes will affect future generations.

In order to quickly determine the winner, the geomantic competition between Yi Tiancheng and Tao Nanfeng was divided into two rounds.

The first session is about Feng Shui. The second round is to break Feng Shui.

In the first scene, we will solve the Feng Shui mystery of Yu Haonan’s new home.

Yu Haonan's family is huge. His grandfather Yu Mingtang has three brothers in his branch. They are all hard-working people. The brothers are loyal to each other and help each other. Everyone's career is developing very well. In Yu Mingtang's words, the Yu family's ancestral tomb is backed by Guanyin Mountain and faces Guanyin River. It is surrounded by mountains and waters, and is protected by real dragons. It welcomes and sees off the ancestors, protects the children, and brings long-lasting blessings.

In the past two years, as the mainland's policies have been relaxed, Yu Mingtang and his family of three returned to their roots, with their only son Yu Chengze, to build a clan temple and compile a family tree. They are very famous in Hai County in northern Guangdong.

But since returning to Hai County and moving into their newly built three-story villa, Yu Haonan's family has been having troubles.

First, Mr. Yu Mingtang got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and fell, damaging his femoral head. He had to lie in the hospital for three months before he could walk.

Then Yu Chengze and Mei Hui began to feel unwell, often experiencing sleep paralysis in the middle of the night. They would wake up around two or four o'clock in the morning, breaking out in cold sweats, feeling dizzy and numb in the mouth, and unable to move for a long time.

Soon after, Yu Haonan met Yi Zhenghao in Shenzhen City, who used the soul-locking technique on him, causing him to fall into a coma. He only woke up after the master he invited helped him collect his soul.

There were only four people in the family, and everyone had suffered an accident. The whole Mei family felt that the feng shui of the new house was bad. However, after inviting several Feng Shui masters to take a look, none of them could explain the problem, and after randomly changing a few furnishings, the situation did not improve.

Just when he heard that Yi Tiancheng and Tao Nanfeng were going to have a geomancy competition, Yu Haonan suggested that the first competition be held at the Yu family's new residence in Hai County.

Reporters from Hong Kong and Shenzhen showed great interest in this folk competition.

One is a famous geomancer and feng shui master in Hong Kong, and a guest of countless wealthy and powerful people; the other is a young architect who graduated from the class of 1978 with a degree in architecture from Jiangcheng Jianzhu University and won the first bidding project in the country.

Metaphysics versus science, who wins?

Feng Shui versus professionalism, which is better?

The showdown between these two people will definitely be very exciting and a hot topic.

Therefore, when Tao Nanfeng and Yi Tiancheng stood together in front of the Yu family's new house in Guanyin Town, Hai County, a bunch of cameras and video recorder tripods had been set up at the door, and countless pairs of eyes were cast on them, excitedly waiting for the two to compete.

"Master Yi, may I ask why you would accept the challenge from a small mainland architect?"

"Tao Nanfeng, how do you feel about being able to compete with the master?"

"Tao Nanfeng, do you have the confidence to win this game?"

"The master's style is unmatched, Hong Kong City will win!"

All kinds of voices came up, making it noisy.

Tao Nanfeng walked side by side with Xiangbei, looking straight ahead, calm and composed. Instead, Yi Tiancheng looked a little exhausted and his face was stiff.

This gave the Hong Kong reporters a bad feeling. They exchanged looks and started whispering to each other.

"Master Yi, what happened today? Didn't you get enough rest?"

"He usually has four disciples with him, why did he only bring one this time?"

"The pretty girl who competed with him was the one who beat up the Yi Sect disciples at the Lanyu Hotel, right? The fierce spirit next to her was the one who beat up Master Yi!"

"Is there some inside story here? Has our Hong Kong City's master been treated unfairly?"

A brave one spoke loudly in Cantonese: "Master, are you in trouble? We will help you speak up!"

Tao Nanfeng smiled softly. Although the laughter was small, it sounded like a soul-stirring sound to Yi Tiancheng's ears.

He turned quickly and looked at the reporter who was speaking.

"No nonsense, Tao Nanfeng and I are friends on equal terms, so what's the problem with this friendly exchange?"

Yi Tiancheng cheered himself up and tried to sort out his mood. Under the guidance of Yu Haonan, he slowly walked into the new home of the Yu family.

Finding dragon points, observing Feng Shui, fortune-telling, physiognomy and fortune-telling are Yi Tiancheng's most proficient skills.

He once read the fortune for a Hong Kong businessman and only slightly changed his wife's name, and the next year he had a son.

He once helped a government official with feng shui and added a feng shui wheel ornament in his office. Since then, his official career has been smooth and he has risen to a high position.

Today, there was just a problem with the feng shui of the Yu family’s new house, and he was confident that he could solve the mystery.

Although Tao Nanfeng's level of metaphysics was higher than his, he still looked young and generous, and was willing to give him a chance to compete with him in his best geomancy skills.

If he loses, he will lose land worth tens of millions. It’s painful, but what if he wins? You can learn new skills from Tao Nanfeng, it’s worth it!

People who practice metaphysics have strong sense of sect and will never easily pass on their skills to others. Tao Nanfeng practiced as a spirit body, and his beautiful magic skills made Yi Tiancheng salivate. Even if she is unwilling to teach you any core skills, more contact with her will be beneficial to your cultivation.

Thinking of this, Yi Tiancheng, who had been suppressed by Tao Nanfeng and felt a little depressed, became energetic. He straightened his waist and shoulders, and walked more briskly.

Yu Haonan had a good relationship with Tao Nanfeng, and he whispered in her ear: "Why do you want to compete with this old man? What if you lose? Do you really want to take him as your apprentice? He will teach his apprentice to starve the master to death. This man is very bad, don't let him fool you."

Tao Nanfeng shook his head: "I won't lose."

The theory of geomancy and feng shui is actually a combination of geography, meteorology, ecology, architecture, etc. It is just hidden in abstruse expressions, which confuses ordinary people and makes them feel it is magical and brilliant.

The reason why Tao Nanfeng wanted to compete with Yi Tiancheng was to learn his brilliant expression on the spot.

What if you lose?

Tao Nanfeng never thought that he would lose.

Metaphysics is just a means. What truly reveals the laws governing the operation of all things is professionalism and science.

She has special powers and professional knowledge, so she has a say more than anyone else on the relationship between architecture and the environment, and between architecture and people.

The Yu family’s villa is in a great location.

Guanyin Mountain stretches down, with two small hills on the east and west, one for the Golden Boy and the other for the Jade Girl. It symbolizes the golden boy and jade girl under the seat of Guanyin, guarding all the residents of Guanyin Town.

From Guanyin Mountain to the north, there is a road that runs through the entire town, called Wufu Road. The Yu Family Villa is located on the west side of Wufu Road. From a distance, it looks like it is being embraced by a golden boy and a jade girl, with winding mountains and lush greenery.

The Yu family villa was obviously carefully designed by a designer. When you push open the heavy iron gate at the entrance, the circular pool at the entrance and the green trees and flower walls on both sides are obviously a feng shui formation.

Yi Tiancheng turned around and whispered to his apprentice: "Did you see it?"

The disciple Yi Zhengqing's eyes flickered: "There are two new bricks on each side of the gate, one white and one black with the word tiger engraved on them. The rockery in the garden is like a tiger's den. This is the Double Tiger Blessing Formation."

Tao Nanfeng looked carefully, but did not find that the two new bricks and several rockery had any beneficial effect on the villa. He shook his head and thought, what feng shui formation? It is just a psychological suggestion to the owner and is neither helpful nor harmful.

After walking around the villa, Tao Nanfeng did not find anything unusual.

Yi Tiancheng did find some problems, and expressed his opinion while standing by the pool: "The pool is a big flaw, it is the so-called dragon's lair and tiger's den. Since there is a double tiger fortune-increasing formation, this pool cannot exist. Otherwise, the fight between the dragon and the tiger will definitely affect the owner's luck."

Yi Zhengqing nodded repeatedly and took out a notebook from his pocket and wrote down everything.

Tao Nanfeng listened from the side and found it funny.

There's nothing wrong with the pool. It is often said in Feng Shui theory that "Qi stops when it meets water". There is spiritual energy and the Qi can be gathered when there is water, which is not without reason.

A person's mood and the surrounding environment are in harmony with each other. There are mountains, water and beautiful scenery, which naturally makes you feel happy. If you are in a good mood, your family will naturally prosper and your career will be successful.

Looking up, he saw that the building had three floors, with a safe structure and a solid foundation, but there were three faint red areas on the roof, which surprised Tao Nanfeng.

She raised her hand and pointed to the roof and asked Yu Haonan: "What did you do on the roof?"

Yu Haonan: "That is the Three Stars Auspicious Array specially set up by Master Miao in the town for my grandfather. He said that with this Three Stars Auspicious Array, my grandfather will be healthy and live a long life."

He glanced at Tao Nanfeng: "Is there a problem with this?"

Tao Nanfeng frowned: "It's hard to say, I'll know after I see it."

A group of people went straight to the rooftop.

When you reach the top of the building, the red area becomes more distinct.

Three large lamps stand on the roof, with big round bulbs and large lampshades in the shape of bright red flowers, looking very festive.

Yi Tiancheng walked around the rooftop and nodded slightly: "It is indeed a three-star auspicious formation, with three flowers gathering at the top of the head and stars shining brightly. It is good feng shui and good meaning."

Tao Nanfeng signaled to the Yu family to turn on the lights.

Although it was daytime, the beam was very bright.

Three extremely bright beams of light shot straight towards the road in front of the villa.

The projection angle is 60 degrees, and part of the light is directed at the two old houses across the street, and two rays of light are reflected from the glass on the first floor.

The reflected light was too dazzling, and Tao Nanfeng subconsciously closed his eyes.

Yi Tiancheng looked down, pointed at the doorpost covered by the beam of light, and exclaimed loudly, "Ah!"

"The good Feng Shui formation has been ruined by people like you!"

Yu Chengze was busy asking for advice humbly. Yi Tiancheng stamped his feet and shook his head while sighing, "Three Stars Shining High and Two Tigers Bringing Blessings, two auspicious formations superimposed, but you see, these two beams of light are facing the door head, and the two tiger bricks are illuminated and nailed firmly. How can they increase blessings and longevity? This is the light evil!"

Yu Chengze suddenly realized: "Master is worthy of being a master!"

Yu Haonan pulled his father's arm and winked at him, signaling him to stand firm and not blindly praise Yi Tiancheng. After all, they and Tao Nanfeng were from the same country.

Yu Chengze cleared his throat, turned around and asked Tao Nanfeng: "Boss Tao, what do you think?"

Tao Nanfeng smiled slightly: "Xiangbei and I will go down to take a look, and meet in the lobby on the first floor in two hours."

After saying that, Tao Nanfeng pulled Xiangbei straight down the stairs, leaving a group of people on the rooftop looking at each other in bewilderment.

Xiangbei followed Tao Nanfeng downstairs, walked across the road in front of the villa, and stood in front of the two houses opposite.

Through the fence, you can see fruit trees and vegetables planted in the yard, and a one-story blue brick house that has been beautifully renovated.

Xiangbei looked around and saw that there was no one else around, so he asked, "Nanfeng, what did you find?"

Tao Nanfeng raised his hand and pointed at the Yu family villa behind him. The three big lights on the roof had been turned off, but a strong presence was still visible: "If there were three lights like this across from your house, and they would be as bright as the sun at night, what would you do?"

Xiangbei suddenly realized: "You think this is not Feng Shui, but a man-made disaster?"

Tao Nanfeng nodded, pushed open the fence and walked inside.

Two hours later, everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor of the Yu family villa.

Old man Yu Mingtang, dressed in a Tang suit and leaning on a cane, sat in the host seat and asked the two masters to talk about how to solve the current Feng Shui problem.

Yi Tiancheng spoke first: "When the Yu family's new house was completed, they invited a Feng Shui master to carefully build it, but unfortunately they didn't get the essence of it. The tiger bricks guarding the door are called the double tiger blessing formation. The eight trigrams in the circular pool are called the dragon pool fortune formation. The three big lights on the roof are called the three stars shining formation.

It’s just a pity…what a pity. When a dragon and a tiger fight, one of them is bound to be injured; the starlight traps the tiger and locks the dragon. The superposition of these three auspicious formations will affect each other, destroying their original effects and bringing disaster to their owners. ”

Yu Tianze's hair stood on end when he heard this, and he asked hurriedly, "Then according to Master, how should we break this Feng Shui situation?"

Yi Tiancheng said: "In this geomancy competition, I can only interpret the situation, not break it. I have already told you the problem, as for how to proceed later..." He was calm and composed, stroking his beard and smiling.

His subtext is: As for the subsequent breakthrough, that will be another price.

Yu Tianze was about to say that the price was not a problem, but was stopped by Yu Mingtang: "Tianze, be quiet and listen to what Tao Nanfeng has to say first."

Yi Tiancheng nodded and looked at Tao Nanfeng: "Master Tao, did you find anything when you left the villa just now? Why not tell us so we can discuss it. If you don't find more critical factors, then I'm afraid I win. You are still young, and it's understandable that you are not familiar with these Feng Shui formations."

Tao Nanfeng looked towards Yu Mingtang with confidence.

"Mr. Yu, you returned to your hometown to build roads and ancestral temples, and did a lot of good things. Are the people of the clan very grateful to you?"

Yu Mingtang smiled kindly, "That's true. I have been blessed by my clan for many years, and it is my duty to give back to my clan members after returning home."

“After building this villa, do you feel that the attitude of the tribe members has changed?”

Yu Mingtang looked a little confused and let out a long sigh.
