Chapter 474: Smoke
Qin Yong was stunned for a moment, but Guo Yu sneered: "I just asked casually, I'm not interested in your affairs."
After saying that, he walked around Tan Yong and left.
Qin Yong stood there in a daze. Although he still felt guilty, he did not feel the obvious palpitations compared to the first time.
Weekend, Mount Li.
In the open space at the foot of the mountain, Shen Ci slowly parked the car and got out of the driver's seat wearing sunglasses.
It was not even nine o'clock in the morning, and the scorching sun had already baked the temperature to 32 degrees. Since they had to climb a mountain today, Chen Ci did not dress up deliberately. She put on a thin sun-protective suit to prevent herself from getting tanned.
"It's too hot today!" The passenger door opened and Shen Yuzhen got out of the car: "This is my first time here in my life."
Mount Li is very large, and Shen Yuzhen's grandfather could not possibly own the entire Mount Li, but only one of the peaks.
Just the hilltop itself is incredibly large, enough for anything you do.
Shen Ci raised her little head and looked around casually. In her opinion, this was just an ordinary mountain, and there was obviously nothing special about it.
"The master that Boss Su introduced should be here soon, right?"
Shen Ci glanced at the time and nodded. The next second, he heard the sound of wheels rolling over the sand.
They both looked up at the same time and saw a luxurious Bentley slowly approaching at the end of the road.
Shen Ci couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, and Shen Yuzhen exclaimed: "This master drives a Bentley?"
"Don't make a fuss, be careful not to offend the master." Shen Ci reminded quickly.
Shen Yuzhen nodded and shrank obediently behind Shen Ci.
As soon as the car stopped, Shen Ci took the initiative to step forward and open the back door for it: "Hello, Master, I am Shen Ci."
The other party slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of slightly cloudy eyes, the whites of his eyes were almost blue, which caught Shen Ci off guard and scared him.
But Shen Ci didn't show any abnormality, just his heart skipped a beat.
Master Yu smiled and nodded slightly: "I know."
As he spoke, he stepped out of the car, his slightly thin body covered with a pure black robe, and he also put on a pair of black sunglasses.
His entire demeanor changed instantly.
Like a fortune teller.
The kind of liar.
Shen Yuzhen was suspicious, but didn't dare to say much. After all, Boss Su said that Master Yu was very famous in Longcheng.
Besides, you can't judge a person by his appearance.
At this time, a young man walked down from the driver's seat. He looked to be in his early twenties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked very energetic.
He walked around to the back of the car, opened the trunk, took out a backpack and held it in his hand, then walked to Master Yu and bent down slightly.
Master Yu climbed onto the boy's back without saying a word. The boy only needed to exert a little force to lift Master Yu's slender body up.
"Is it just above this?" the boy turned and asked Shen Ci.
Shen Ci nodded quickly.
There is a way up the mountain, but it is very winding and it takes a lot of effort to climb up.
But the boy walked on flat ground, carrying Master Yu on his back as if there was nothing on his back, leaving Shen Ci and Shen Yuzhen far behind.
Shen Yuzhen finally had time to speak: "Aci, is it reliable? This old man looks like he can hardly take care of himself."
"Hush." Chen Ci quickly signaled her not to talk nonsense: "Don't use people you doubt. You'll know whether he has the ability or not in a moment."
Shen Yuzhen curled her lips, but in fact she herself did not believe these.
The two of them climbed breathlessly for a long time and finally reached the top of the mountain. Master Yu and the boy who arrived earlier had already started to work.
The boy was lighting a small copper-colored cauldron, and he was using a fire starter that you only see in TV dramas.
Master Yu was circling on the top of the mountain, holding a compass, and calculating back and forth with his fingers seriously.
Shen Ci and Shen Yuzhen looked at each other and stepped aside silently.
After a while, Master Yu put away the compass, came to the side of the small cauldron, and stared at the smoke coming out of the hole above the cauldron in a daze.
The smoke was just ordinary white smoke, nothing special.
"Little girl, what do you want to do with this hill?" Master Yu suddenly asked.
Chen Ci was still in a daze, and after a while he reacted, he said, "I would like to ask the master to see if this hilltop is a good place for Feng Shui, how about using it to build a cemetery?"
Shen Yuzhen's facial features suddenly magnified, and her eyes widened as big as light bulbs as she looked at Shen Ci: "You..."
Build a cemetery?
How could she think of that!
Shen Ci quickly explained in a low voice: "It's just an idea, we still need to listen to the master's opinion."
When choosing a place to build a house, people have to consider Feng Shui.
The dead pay more attention to this when choosing a place to rest, so Shen Ci must ensure that the cemetery she builds here has excellent feng shui, otherwise it will definitely not be sold.
Upon hearing this, Master Yu actually looked at Shen Ci a little more.
"Master, it's time to light the smoke!" the boy suddenly said.
Several people looked over at the same time and saw the smoke from the furnace drifting towards the front of the mountain. It didn't look like anything special.
Shen Yuzhen frowned slightly. After hearing the word "inducing smoke", she felt that these two people were deliberately being mysterious.
As a result, Chen Ci suddenly touched her lightly and raised his chin towards the black flag standing next to the furnace.
Shen Yuzhen looked closely and was instantly covered with goose bumps in the 32-degree weather.
Because the flag was flying in the exact opposite direction to the smoke...
The flag is blown by the wind, and it flutters along the wind, but the smoke is actually fluttering against the wind?
How is this possible?
"Don't be afraid. This is basic Feng Shui. It's not some supernatural event."
Master Yu slowly stood up and looked in the direction where the smoke was drifting. Over there was Longcheng, and he could vaguely see the prosperous city.
"Wanhu, explain it to them." Master Yu said.
"Yes, Master."
The boy named Wan Hu walked up to Chen Ci, raised his hand and pointed over there, saying, "From our current perspective, that side is south for us, right?"
Shen Ci nodded.
Wan Hu continued, "But the direction the smoke just drifted was in that direction, which means that's north."
"Ah?" Shen Yuzhen suspected she was hallucinating: "Didn't you just say Nan?"
"To humans, that's south." Wan Hu looked at Shen Yuzhen and explained in more detail, "But the smoke leads to the direction of the deceased, and that direction is north for the deceased."
The other party's words began to smear some metaphysics. Shen Ci himself was reborn, so he was not afraid.
Shen Yuzhen was really a little scared, and even though she was curious, she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Wan Hu went on to explain, "According to Feng Shui, if there are people living in the north and a Jade River in the south, then that is a Feng Shui treasure land suitable for eternal rest."
