Chapter 951 There's a Problem with the Feng Shui
What else could "Dad Ji" mean?
He has been troubled by the affairs of the museum these past few days. Although he doesn't know the extent of the problem with these two people, more people means more help. As long as they can help, everything else is negotiable.
Since none of the parties involved had any objections, the opinions of others could be disregarded.
Ji Yueling was also surprised that the master invited by Ji Xiangli was acquainted with Ye Wanxi, and that this person seemed to have a great deal of respect for Ye Wanxi.
After the initial surprise, all that remained was a sense of satisfaction and schadenfreude.
Qiu Yuerong wasn't very clear about Ji Yueling's family situation either. Sensing that her relationship with this cousin seemed a bit off, she quietly moved closer to her and asked, "What's up with this guy? I've never heard you mention him before?"
Ji Yueling glanced at Ji Xiangli, whose expression was slightly gloomy, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "He is my aunt's son, and he also has the surname Ji."
At first, Qiu Yuerong didn't understand what Ji Yueling meant, but after a moment her eyes widened suddenly: "Taking your aunt's surname?"
“Yes, he didn’t have this surname before. He’s my aunt and uncle’s only son. They’re not divorced, and my uncle didn’t marry into the family back then.”
This statement contains a lot of information, especially considering that Ji Yueling is the only girl in her family.
Qiu Yuerong's eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't ask any more questions.
The little incident between the two did not attract the attention of the people present. After accompanying Ye Wanxi and the others on a tour of the funeral home, Mr. Ji said somewhat anxiously, "Masters, you have all looked through this venue. Did you notice anything wrong?"
Ye Wanxi glanced at Zou Yuanhe, nodded politely to him, and gestured for him to speak first.
Zou Yuanhe's heart skipped a beat, but he managed to stay calm: "Then I'll make a fool of myself. The reason why Director Ji's funeral home has suddenly become so eerie is because the souls of the deceased he has been handling lately have been lingering here."
Upon hearing Zou Yuanhe's words, the members of the Ji family all shuddered in unison.
Mr. Ji's face turned deathly pale: "This... Master Zou means that my temple has... has..."
Although Mr. Ji works in this line of work, he must be very brave. But even the bravest man will panic when he encounters something unseen!
“Yes.” Zou Yuanhe looked at the compass in his hand and frowned. “And quite a lot.”
"Then what about all those people in my building...?"
Zou Yuanhe frowned and pondered for a moment: "They probably didn't suffer their misfortune because they were haunted by these ghosts. It's just that they had been in contact with these things for a long time and their bodies were tainted with yin energy. When the yin energy is heavy, they naturally have bad luck."
When Zou Yuanhe said this, he glanced at Ye Wanxi as if seeking confirmation, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her nod.
It's strange, even though he's older than Ye Wanxi, he just can't bring himself to act like an elder when he's standing in front of her.
Even when Ye Wanxi was present, he felt a strange pressure when he talked about these things, a feeling that was very similar to when his master took him out to broaden his horizons and test him.
I always feel like if he says something wrong, he'll get a beating!
"I see." After hearing Zou Yuanhe's explanation, Mr. Ji's expression was complicated, and he didn't know whether to feel relieved or distressed.
Ji Xiangli rolled his eyes and stepped forward to ask, "Now that Master Zou has found the root cause of the anomaly in the temple, do you have a solution?"
Zou Yuanhe frowned slightly and said seriously, "The matter of souls lingering in the hall can be a big deal or a small deal. I did not sense any murderous intent in the hall, so I guess these souls did not linger here intentionally."
Mr. Ji was also confused when he heard this: "If they didn't intentionally stay here, then what is the reason?"
"It's highly likely that there's a problem with the feng shui inside your building."
Mr. Ji was slightly taken aback: "Feng shui?"
"Yes, funeral homes, especially those with crematoriums, require extra attention to feng shui. Generally, a professional feng shui master is consulted before construction to set up the 'life gate' and 'death gate' according to the location of the funeral home, thus ensuring that the living people inside are not disturbed by evil spirits or tainted by yin energy, but..."
"But?" Mr. Ji's heart jumped.
Zou Yuanhe looked embarrassed: "I am only good at catching ghosts, and I have not studied Qimen Dunjia or Feng Shui for good fortune in depth."
The subtext is: Your questions are not my area of expertise; this is all I can see, and I can't help you.
Mr. Ji's face immediately turned ashen, but a faint glimmer of light flashed in Ji Xiangli's eyes.
Just as the atmosphere among them froze, Ye Wanxi, who hadn't spoken since the beginning, suddenly said, "The path to the underworld is blocked."
"The Path of the Underworld?"
"The so-called Path of the Underworld is the two gates of shock and injury. In the case of your funeral home, it is the east and west directions." Seeing that the group was confused, Ye Wanxi raised her hand and pointed to the approximate location.
“Your funeral home must have been specially arranged by a master when it was first built. According to the geographical location, the northwest is the entrance and the northeast is the entrance to life. The entrance to life, as the name suggests, is for the living. People enter through the entrance to life and exit through the entrance to life. In this way, although the living enter the yin place, they will not be contaminated by yin energy, so it will not harm their health.”
After listening to Ye Wanxi's explanation and thinking about it carefully, Ji's father and the others realized that this was indeed the case!
"Then what is the 'Death Gate' that Master Zou just mentioned?"
"The location of the Death Gate is the location of your crematorium. The Life Gate is in the northeast, and the Death Gate is the opposite, so it is naturally placed in the southwest. This location corresponds to the Kun trigram in the Bagua. Kun is the Earth trigram, which encompasses all things and is great because it is tolerant. Placing the crematorium in this location can more effectively dispel the resentment of the deceased, allowing them to pass away peacefully."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yueling exclaimed in surprise, "I never knew there were so many intricacies to this cremation tower alone!"
Mr. Ji nodded in agreement; he only knew the general outline of these matters.
Now that I've actually encountered something, I realize that there are always people more capable than you in this world. Just because they don't understand something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. That's why we say that we should always have some respect for others when dealing with people.
Only Ji Xiangli, upon hearing Ye Wanxi's detailed analysis of the feng shui arrangement of the funeral home, had a complicated expression, and his hands hanging at his sides tightened unconsciously.
"And what about the Underworld that you just mentioned, Miss Ye...?"
Mr. Ji's address to Ye Wanxi has changed from "you" to "you (formal)," and his tone has become more expectant and respectful.
"The so-called underworld path, also known as the two gates of shock and injury, is simply the path taken by the underworld messengers."
Mr. Ji and the others couldn't help but gasp: "Yin... Yin messengers? Yin messengers really exist in this world?"
