Chen Xiao raised his hand to put away the pen, turned his head and looked at Shen Yanxing with a smile: "This is a test question given to Yanxing by the teacher. Come and see if you can figure out what kind of Feng Shui situation it is?"
Shen Yanxing frowned and said in distress: "There are only three circles, how can you tell?"
Chen Xiao said: "You should know that most Feng Shui features are pictographic and semantic, and the names are determined by the similarities with the appearance of mountains, rivers and water. The same is true for today's question. In this way, I will make it more obvious."
Chen Xiao then dipped the brush in tea and drew many small squares in the largest circle to represent the houses that were demolished and rebuilt. This made it more vivid, and Shen Yanxing immediately understood: "The moon is surrounded by many stars!"
Chen Xiao looked at Shen Yanxing with appreciation: "Yes, this is a perfect Feng Shui game."
Under Chen Xiao's supervision, the pit was reinforced in three days, and then it was backfilled in just one day. In the past, to backfill such a large pit, a large truck had to go to other places to bring in the dirt and dump it in. It was much easier for a cultivator to do this. With a few spells, the collapsed area was restored to a flat surface.
The square was built very quickly. The capital prepared bluestone slabs and plaster in advance, compacted the ground the next morning, and paved the ground with stone slabs in the afternoon. They worked late into the night and completed the square in the early morning.
Long, the chief steward of the city guard, strictly followed Chen Xiao's instructions and did not let anyone in for five days. It was not until the morning of the sixth day after the accident that the city guards evacuated and the local residents immediately rushed home to pack up and move out. Originally, they were afraid to continue living here, but later they heard that this area was going to be demolished and the immortal cultivators would rebuild it into some kind of magic circle.
Common people blindly worship the abilities of immortal cultivators, believing that they are omnipotent. Anyone who has any connection with immortal magic is considered a lucky person by the neighbors. So upon hearing this, almost all residents happily emptied their houses and waited for the immortal cultivators to rebuild before moving back.
People in the neighborhood were busy carrying horses and going in and out. Only the location of the original pit was avoided by people, and no one dared to go there. After all, the accident had just happened, and it felt that the bad luck had not yet dissipated.
Chen Xiao was not affected by external things. He sat quietly and adjusted his state. Xi Yunting stood closest to him to protect him, while Tong Nuonuo explained the various magical aspects of Feng Shui to Tang Ru, who was watching Chen Xiao arrange Feng Shui for the first time.
Shen Yanxing accompanied Shen Yonghe and Shen Yongqing who had been notified to come and watch. In order not to cause a commotion, the two of them went out incognito and brought no one with them.
The pit gave the evil spirits an outlet, and within a few days, the evil spirits gathered thickly on this open space. Fortunately, it was backfilled in time, otherwise people and animals near this place would have been killed or injured in the future.
The influence of the evil spirit was greater than Chen Xiao expected, and he couldn't find the most suitable place to suppress it. Chen Xiao was not discouraged. He stood up and said to Xi Yunting: "Brother, please give me a hand."
Xi Yunting thought that he could not help Xiaodi when he was doing Feng Shui, so he immediately said, "Tell me, how can I help you?"
Chen Xiao thought for a moment before saying, "I still remember that in the cave of the poisonous snake, my brother was able to simulate the attacks of the evil cultivators."
Xi Yunting hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes." That was his unique way of attack. Because it was difficult to explain, Xi Yunting never told Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao simply didn't intend to ask further questions today. He just said, "Then can you use the completely opposite ability to dispel it?"
Xi Yunting was startled. He had been working hard to control bad luck before and had never thought about this. His obsidian eyes showed a little regret: "I have never tried it before. I don't know if I can succeed."
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "I'm sure you can do it." Xi Yunting had never noticed before that his aura could be controlled by consciousness. Although he didn't take the initiative to do it, the auras collided with each other wherever he went, showing suppression, which was enough to prove that he could do it. "Brother, your aura is righteous and can resist all evil spirits. I would like to ask you to stir up the evil spirits in this aura so that I can find a suitable place to place the Feng Shui stone."
Xi Yunting felt complicated. He had always thought that he could only bring bad luck to others, but he never knew that he could also dispel this bad luck. Now that he thought about it, he realized how wronged those people who had been affected by him must have been.
This was because Xi Yunting had been wary of this ability since he was young, and even if he tried to control it, it was just to suppress it. It was also from this time that Xi Yunting faced up to this special ability of his and understood how to truly control it.
Xi Yunting walked away and took out the Snow Front Heavy Sword. He tried to feel the energy that was completely opposite to bad luck. This was his first attempt, but with his previous experience in controlling bad luck, he successfully directed the aura that Xiaodi called righteousness to the sword.
Xi Yunting shook the heavy sword in his hand and swung it as if it were nothing, performing a set of grand and powerful heavy sword techniques in the square.
"Good swordsmanship!" Shen Yongqing praised.
Chen Xiao was dazzled by what he saw. Xi Yunting was like a swimming dragon, with a sword at the head, seemingly shuttling through the clouds, but in reality he was cutting through the thick evil spirits. Chen Xiao stared at him for a few more times, deeply imprinting Xi Yunting's figure in his mind. He hurriedly walked into the square, and while Xi Yunting was stirring up the evil spirits and weakening the obstacles, he went to place the Feng Shui stone.
There is only one chance to place the Feng Shui stone, and the evil spirit must be suppressed at once. Otherwise, the rebound will be even worse, and it will not be as simple as the square collapsing.
The further he went, the greater the pressure. Fortunately, Xi Yunting's stirring relieved a lot of it. Chen Xiao took one last step forward and finally came to the right place. Without any hesitation, Chen Xiao immediately released the Feng Shui stone from the storage box.
"Boom--" there was a loud noise, like thunder rolling in the sky, or rocks collapsing from the top of a mountain. The loud noise was accompanied by vibrations, causing the ground under people's feet to shake constantly, making people mistakenly think that an earthquake had occurred.
The shaking didn't last long, and it stopped in a moment. The huge stone fell on the square, and the smoke and dust were rolled up in all directions. The evil spirit gathered in the square was immediately swept away. Everyone present felt their bodies lighten, and the air was refreshed.
Shen Yonghe was surprised and delighted. He walked quickly to the boulder and said, "Master Chen, is it done?"
Chen Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The Feng Shui position of the square is complete. What remains is to build the surrounding houses to form a Feng Shui situation of many stars surrounding the moon. If there is only this huge stone to suppress the evil spirit, it may be insufficient. The surrounding houses need to be divided into nine blocks according to the number of 108, with twelve households in each block. These houses can provide support for the huge stone and form a protective layout."
Shen Yonghe nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay. I will give an order to the capital city government to complete the construction of the house as soon as possible."
Chen Xiao said: "There are Feng Shui stones here to dispel the evil spirits, which will greatly delay the occurrence of disasters. But this time will not be too long, generally only two to three years."
Shen Yonghe restrained his expression and said, "Two or three years is enough."
As the king, Shen Yonghe was very busy. After watching the placement of the Feng Shui stone, he hurried away with Shen Yongqing.
At this time, Chen Xiao found that Xi Yunting had been standing still in one place for a long time. He was surprised and walked over to take a look.
Xi Yunting held the heavy sword Xuefeng in one hand behind his back, and beat his legs with the other hand. His eyes were half closed, and his expression was indescribably strange. It felt as if he had figured out some mystery and understood some truth.
Tang Ru and Tong Nuonuo also came over. Tang Ru said to Xi Yunting, "Congratulations to Brother Xi for your sudden enlightenment. You will surely reach a higher level in seclusion soon!"
Chen Xiao finally understood that asking Xi Yunting for help just now had actually made him reach the threshold of breakthrough. Xi Yunting looked at Chen Xiao's face, which was full of surprise because of the sudden incident, and nodded with a wry smile: "I need to retreat immediately."
