There were four locations on the question board where Gao Zhi had written the correct answers in advance, corresponding to the four bloody incidents that had occurred in this old house.

Twenty-five years ago, his parents were both burned to death in a fire in the main hall on the first floor;

According to eyewitnesses, Gao Zhi's father suddenly and mysteriously set himself on fire, affecting his mother who was anxious to put out the fire. He was only thirteen years old that year.

Not long after, his grandmother accidentally fell down the stairs and hit her head while going downstairs. Due to her old age, she was sent to the hospital but died after failed rescue efforts.

Just one year later, his little sister fell down the stairs and broke her neck when she leaned out of the third-floor corridor window to grab flowers from the tree outside the window due to the nanny's negligence.

The sudden death of his wife and granddaughter deeply shocked Mr. Gao at the time. He hastily made a will to divide his property, and died suddenly of an acute cerebral hemorrhage at home one day.

When the servant found him, the old man was already cold.

In just a few years, the young Gao Zhi lost all his loved ones, and he went from being the ambitious grandson of the richest man to an ordinary person full of pain.

The audience watching the live broadcast were truly shocked by his tragic experience.

[This family is so miserable. No wonder the head of the household looks so bitter and resentful. Anyone who goes through this will definitely have some psychological trauma! ]

[What on earth did the householder's family do to deserve such a fierce curse? ]

After nearly five hours of observation, those who wrote relatively accurate answers were No. 1 Xun Yiqing, No. 2 the spirit horse Bai Ci, and No. 9 a young man named He Mi Tu.

They all accurately wrote down these four places and rooms, saying that these places were the most deadly and where people had died.

Other contestants, such as Daisy No. 6, also found three or two correctly.

Among all the contestants, only Gu Zhisang answered all the questions correctly.

She clearly and concisely marked on the board the exact location where the incident occurred, as well as the repressed past corresponding to each place.

All of the contestants looked in her direction at once, either examining her or expressing curiosity, especially Xun Yiqing, whose face was filled with disbelief.

Liu Da was also puzzled. "I want to interview Sangsang. Why did you write down six events? The correct answer was provided by our owner, Mr. Gao. Could it be that something happened in this villa that he doesn't know about?"

In addition to the four questions, there were two more lines of words on Gu Zhisang's question board.

'Kitchen - a bad omen, disfigurement or disability.'

'Storage room - the air is thick and purple, it must be death from poison.'

"I wrote it down after I figured it out. These two incidents have little connection with the homeowner, and the victims are definitely not his relatives." Gu Zhisang frowned slightly, "But didn't the program ask 'what happened in this house'? There's something wrong with your question setting."

"That's true. I just remembered it when I saw the answer written by Master Gu." Gao Zhi pursed his lips and glanced at Gu Zhisang with a complicated expression. "When I was a child, there was an explosion in the kitchen at home. The cook was right next to us at the time and got scalded by the splashing boiling water..."

After the accident, the Gao family gave the cook a large sum of money for surgery and compensation, and the cook left and never came back to work.

The person who died of poisoning in the warehouse was not a human, but a pet that Gao Zhi raised when he was young.

It died because it accidentally ate the cheese sprinkled with medicine that the servant had placed outside the warehouse to poison rats. Gao Zhi was very sad at the time.

These things had long been forgotten by him due to the blow of the death of his family.

"So that's how it is!" The host, Liu Da, nodded and said, "The bizarre incident that happened many years ago has been revealed, and our contestants have completely different guesses. Mr. Gao, as the owner of this old house, which contestant's answer do you think is the most satisfactory and closest to the truth?"

Gao Zhi hesitated for a moment, then said firmly, "I choose Master Gu. She has seen through everything here, just like she has experienced it herself, even things that I am about to forget."

What he didn't tell anyone was that after his parents spontaneously combusted, his grandfather invited the master who had set up the feng shui layout for the family to take a look. The master said that the person who was cursed and committed a sin was his father!

Even when my grandmother slipped and fell down the stairs and my mother was burned to death, it was also due to the influence of my father's evil power.

At that time, Gao Zhi was determined not to believe it. In his impression, his father was kind, smart and capable, the pillar of the Gao family, and he was very kind to his mother and his brothers and sisters. How could he be such a vicious person? !

But with the sudden deaths of his sister, grandparents, and the misfortunes he himself had suffered over the years, he had no choice but to believe it.

Many times he wanted to ask his father in his dreams, "What did you do? Why did the family become like this?"

Gao Zhi had been suffering for decades, and just today, someone firmly told him that the person who did the evil was not his father, and that their family was harmed by someone!

How could this not excite him?

Liu said: "Based on the accuracy of your answers and the choice of Mr. Gao, the head of the household, contestant No. 7 Gu Zhisang will be awarded 1 point."

The program crew was very playful and gave Xun Yiqing a close-up shot to capture his reaction.

[This is a bit too mysterious, Gu Zhisang has become a semi-immortal! ]

[Oh my god, Master Xun's face is about to turn purple with anger.]

Liu then continued: "Each of our contestants also selected a special item. May I ask why contestant No. 10 chose this purple clay cup?"

Number 10 is a round-faced girl who looks to be about 18 or 19 years old. Her name is Xi Haihong.

She coughed lightly and said, "I am a wandering ghost. I can sense the negative energy lingering in the world of the living. I can sense the negative energy of the dead souls on this purple clay teapot."

Liu asked, "Is this the cup, Mr. Gao?"

Gao Zhi studied it for a moment and shook his head. "I remember now. You must have taken this purple clay cup from the study on the second floor, right? This is indeed the cup my grandfather used when he had a cerebral hemorrhage. Perhaps for this reason, it is stained with evil spirits, but this is not the most special item in the house."

The items chosen by other people were also revealed one by one, and there were all kinds of things.

Liu unveiled the last question board, and the real special item was the word "Quiet" hanging on the wall of the main hall.

There were two people who answered correctly, Gu Zhisang and Daisy.

"This is impossible!"

Seeing that the item was answered incorrectly, Xun Yiqing's already gloomy expression became even more serious. He raised his voice and said, "Host, Mr. Gao, I doubt the result and authenticity of your competition. The feng shui of the main hall is excellent, with a wide view, and the calligraphy is located where the aura flows. There is nothing wrong with it at all!"

The scene was quiet and awkward for a moment.

Liu laughed dryly: "Mr. Xun, our program is absolutely fair and just this time. Even I, the host, just found out the answer."

If he had been questioned in the previous two seasons, Liu would not have dared to be so decisive, because he had indeed sold the answers.

But the director didn't reveal any information in this episode. It was not until Gao Zhi came that they found out who the owner of the villa was.

Daisy spoke up to break the deadlock: "I can testify that this painting has a very ominous aura in my eyes, very much like something demonic."

Generally speaking, black witch families have the heritage of African voodoo. They are good at communicating with the dead, like to use spells, and are very sensitive to darkness and bad energy.

As the most promising successor to the Norwegian dark wizard lineage, although Daisy does not understand the principles of Feng Shui formations, she can discover evil forces in a simple and crude way.

Xun Yiqing sneered: "What do you, a foreigner, know about metaphysics?"

The contempt in his tone made Daisy very unhappy. When she was about to speak again, her shoulder was patted. Gu Zhisang, who had been expressionless all the time, curled the corner of his lip:

"The problem has been pointed out, but you still can't find any clues. Haven't the people of Xuanmen fallen to this point now?"

Ignoring Xun Yiqing's angry look, she asked, "Do you have any handy little things? Take a few more."

Gao Zhi asked: "How about chess pieces? They were collected by our elders."

"Can."

"Pretending!" Xun Yiqing scolded, "I want to see what you, a yellow-haired girl, have seen!"

After receiving a box of jade-white chess pieces, Gu Zhisang ignored him;

She picked up the white pieces with two scallion-white fingers and placed them on the empty table. Every time she placed a piece, she said a sentence: "Gan Yimen Qinglong Wanyue, Kan Sanmen Ruize, Kun Zhengmen..."

Both the audience and most of the contestants were confused, but Xun Yiqing frowned.

He has seen that Gu Zhisang is using the Eight Palaces of Qimen as the direction, and the point where each chess piece falls is the reflection of the location of the small feng shui layouts in the villa on the Eight Palaces of Qimen!

Xun Yiqing asked himself if he could do it, but he would have to use a compass to compare, which was a little hard for him to accept as he was always so proud of himself.

The six pieces fell down, forming the embryonic form of a constellation.

When Gu Zhisang raised his eyes again, his expression was stern. "There are six active offices in this house, which is already extremely prosperous. The painting on the wall of the main hall is at a central point, gathering the spiritual energy of the entire mountain here. In other words, this house is like being roasted on the fire of fortune. In ancient times, this kind of house layout required kings, princes, generals, and people with great achievements. Ordinary people simply cannot withstand this kind of momentum, and will instead decline from prosperity."

Xun Yiqing disagreed, "So what? You don't want to say that these blessings killed this family, do you?"

"It's fine if it's just Fukuzawa, but there are two problems with the main formation point."

Gu Zhisang smiled faintly, "Hang a word 'jing' at the point of the array. Jing sounds the same as 'mirror'. In numerology, it means the moon in the mirror and the flower in the water. It will make the reality and illusion reversed and the yin and yang disordered, and the truth will turn into falsehood and blessings turn into disasters. The surface of the glass on which the word is mounted will deepen the turning point of the mirror. All the spiritual energy and blessings gathered will be reversed into yin energy!"

"This extremely Yin formation point merges with the other six formations to form an interlocking living formation - the Seven Killing Absolute Yin Formation."

The so-called 'Seven Killings and Absolute Yin Formation' is a combination of large formations in Feng Shui classics, used to rob money and kill people. In this world with scarce spiritual energy, it can be used with the help of numerology. This Feng Shui master is indeed quite capable.

She looked at Gao Zhi standing aside and said, "That calligraphy was written by your father, right?"

Gao Zhi nodded repeatedly, "That's right! The antique shelf was originally a cabinet for storing documents. When my father...died in the fire, all the documents were burned, but this calligraphy remained intact. Later, after we repainted the place, we hung this calligraphy on the wall of the main hall at the suggestion of the Feng Shui master who designed the layout. So this is a truly special item."

Gu Zhisang smiled, "Your father died in a fire, and the words he wrote were hung at the scene. This is like a soul-locking medium, suppressing your father's soul in these words, and preventing him from entering the underworld to reincarnate."

"This is also the point where the fortune turns the worst. The endless negative energy will tear the locked soul apart, causing it unbearable pain. The descendants will also be implicated. I think this is the reason for the tragic death of your family."

Gao Zhi didn't know what he was thinking about, his face turned pale.

Gu Zhisang continued, "Before your father died, the feng shui of this villa was very good. At that time, your family was prosperous and wealthy. From the day this calligraphy was hung after his death, fortune and misfortune began to reverse. I think you should know who it is."

Yes, the tragedy in their family did start with the death of their parents.

Gao Zhi did think of someone, but he was unwilling and dared not to believe it.

"In addition to the formation points and the killing formation, the Feng Shui master should have changed a few places." Gu Zhisang put down the chess box and recalled the layout he saw today.

"Have all the windows of your villa facing the south been modified?"

Gao Zhi thought about it carefully, and only vaguely remembered some fragments. "It seems that this is the case. The master said that it is unlucky to have a dead person in the house, and the windows need to be changed to disperse the evil spirits. Master Gu, is there any trick to this?"

Director Li Chenghe, who had been paying attention in the studio, asked people to run to the south and take pictures of the windows of the villa as soon as Gu Zhisang opened his mouth.

Looking out the window from this position, you can see endless mountains and shade trees. The scenery is very beautiful.

By carefully filming the details, the audience also noticed something was wrong.

[This window is so strange, it looks a bit like the sliding windows of ancient times, but the red color of the glass doesn’t match the overall style. ]

[Why are there a pair of copper rings on each window and door? It seems...]

Gu Zhisang: "The mirrored glass is painted red, with copper rings hanging on it, and it opens up to look like a mountain road. Don't you think these windows look like doors?"

Gao Zhi: “…Indeed.”

"Let me ask you again, is your ancestral tomb located on the southernmost side of the mountain?" Although it was a question, Gu Zhisang's tone was firm, "The gate of the cemetery faces south and faces north, and your windows face each other across the mountain."

The more Gao Zhi listened, the more frightened he became. His hands felt numb and weak. Seeing his staring eyes, Gu Zhisang knew the conclusion.

She was too lazy to keep the secret, so she spoke faster, "The founder of Luban Gate once said, 'Two houses cannot face each other, or one of them will decline; if I am good, he is not, if he is good, I will be depressed'①, this is the 'Vermillion Bird Evil'. Your Yang house is across the mountain from your ancestors' Yin house, and you are blessed by your ancestors, but after changing the window to a door, it will become a hedge against the evil spirit."

"There are two ways to dispel the 'Vermillion Bird Evil'. One is to hang a Bagua mirror outside the door. Mirrored glass can also have the same effect, but this is an offensive method. If it were an ordinary neighbor, it would be fine, but you are attacking a group of evil spirits!"

It's still my own ancestor! What good can I get?

As he explained, even Gu Zhisang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the Feng Shui master who arranged this was truly ruthless and ingenious.

At least if she were to come, she wouldn't be able to do so many things.

"The Seven Killings Absolute Yin Array is already damaging to the foundation, and it also violates the 'Vermillion Bird Evil'. It would be strange if the residents didn't die suddenly if they stayed in this environment for a long time."

Gao Zhi was stunned for a long time before he asked in a trembling voice, "Master just said that the Vermillion Bird Evil will cause the two families to grow stronger while the other grows weaker..."

"That's right." Gu Zhisang glanced at him. It seemed that this man finally got it.

"Because your father's soul is suppressed in the formation, the two evil formations will only harm him and his relatives, but the fortune fed back to your ancestral tomb will continuously nourish other descendants of the same clan."

When the bloody truth is revealed, it is clear who is the mastermind behind it.

The reason why Gu Zhisang was able to figure out Gao Zhi's basic information without even meeting him was through the word "quiet".

There is a branch of physiognomy called "calculating characters", which can tell a person's life and deduce his clan branch through the characters he writes.

After meeting Gao Zhi in person, Gu Zhisang made a more detailed deduction through his physiognomy and figured out that his only relative left was an uncle, who was his father's younger brother.

This uncle was not closely related to his father, they should be half-brothers, but in the Gao family lineage, this person, like Gao Zhi's father, was a descendant of the Gao family.

After Gao Zhi's father's lineage was suppressed by the evil formation, all the luck of the Gao family's ancestors that was sucked away from them would flow to this person.

What's even more vicious is that Gao Zhi's family will become the blood bag of another lineage, or even the scapegoat;

Even if it was the evil deeds committed by the other party, in the end the retribution would be transferred to Gao Zhi's family because of the reversal of the formation!

The huge shock of information has destroyed Gao Zhi's rationality. He only felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and extreme anger made him breathless.

[Wow, this is too much information. I am confused. Anyway, this guy's family is really miserable. ]

[Does it turn out that having opposite doors can bring bad luck? ?! My house has a straight opposite door style, can the host give me a solution? !]

[This guy’s surname is Gao, and he has such a big house. He is a rich man in Yuncheng with the surname Gao…]

Seeing someone trying to dig up information about Gao Zhi in the live broadcast room, Li Chenghe, who knew Gao's family background, was sending a signal in his headset. The host Liu hurriedly said:

"Okay, everyone. The result of the second half of the game is clear. This live broadcast ends here. The high-energy edited version will be uploaded in three days. See you in the next episode!"

Gu Zhisang noticed the help requests on the screen and said before the live broadcast ended:

"The gentle solution is very simple. Just put a 'Heavenly Official Blessing' on the door."

After he finished speaking, the live broadcast was cut off. As soon as it ended, Gao Zhi, who looked pale, knelt on the ground with a thud. His eyes were red and full of hatred. "Master Gu, I beg you to help me break the evil formation at home. It was my ignorance that harmed my father. No matter what the reward or price is, I can't let his soul suffer anymore!"

He wanted to kowtow again, but found that he couldn't bend down.

Gu Zhisang lifted his shoulders and pulled him up easily, "Don't kneel to me. If you don't tell me, I won't let a ghost stay in the world of the living."

There's no way. She's the kind of person who can't walk when she sees a ghost and has to get involved in all the secrets.

"I will help you break the formation, but it will be at Chou hour tomorrow, so you need to prepare some things in advance."

Gu Zhisang: "The most important thing is first come first served. There is someone waiting in line in front of you."

Song Tang, who was pulled into a separate live broadcast room, had been waiting for an entire afternoon. From being anxious and frightened at the beginning, he became so fascinated by the show that he had forgotten his own disaster.

Hearing this, he came to his senses and quickly turned on the microphone:

"Master Gu, save me! I'm waiting in line!!"
