Chapter 1449: Don’t plant mulberry trees in front, and don’t plant willow trees behind
When Gu Ning saw this, she was startled and immediately retracted her perspective, because the direction Zhou Shengquan was looking was exactly her direction.
Although there was a house between them, Zhou Shengquan couldn't see her, but he could feel her gaze. It was just that because he couldn't see her, he didn't feel that someone was really looking at him.
Yes, although Zhou Shengquan felt that someone was staring at him, he did not think it was anyone, because in this huge villa, there were only him and Zhao Yecheng.
Therefore, Zhou Shengquan thought that the thing staring at him must be something unclean.
However, he couldn't see it, so he didn't explore it any further.
Although Gu Ning turned away Zhou Shengquan's gaze when he looked at her, she knew that Zhou Shengquan could not see her, so she looked through him again.
However, this time his eyes were not always on Zhou Shengquan. Instead, he followed him with his peripheral vision so as to avoid being noticed by him again.
Zhou Shengquan searched the villa but found nothing wrong. However, when he came to the backyard and saw the willow and locust trees, his face immediately darkened.
Obviously, the reason is known.
So Zhou Shengquan asked Zhao Yecheng in a cold voice: "Boss Zhao, did you ask people to plant these willow and locust trees?"
"When we built the villa, my second uncle suggested that we plant a few willow and locust trees in the backyard. This way, it will be much cooler in the summer." Zhao Yecheng said, not knowing what was wrong with the willow and locust trees. However, when Zhou Shengquan asked this, Zhao Yecheng was also puzzled. Could it be that there was something wrong with the willow and locust trees? Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind, and he did not really think that there was anything wrong with the willow and locust trees. They were just a few trees, what could be wrong with them!
However······
"Ha! It is much cooler, but I don't know when he became so cold that he died of illness." Zhou Shengquan said coldly with a strong sense of sarcasm.
Cool enough to kill you, isn't it?
It's eerie here and it's indeed cool, but it's a deadly coolness because the coolness here doesn't come from natural cool breeze but from the yin energy.
When Yin energy enters the body, your health will naturally be affected. Mild cases will cause frequent nightmares, lack of energy, and pale complexion. Severe cases will cause you to become weak and faint, and may even be in danger of your life.
Zhao Yecheng's family members fell ill directly, which was already serious. Fortunately, they were lucky and their lives were not in danger.
The sarcasm Zhou Shengquan showed was not directed at Zhao Yecheng, but at Zhao Yecheng's second uncle. It was obvious that Zhao Yecheng's second uncle had bad intentions.
But this is someone else's family affair, so he can't say anything.
Although Gu Ning did not hear what Zhou Shengquan said, from his behavior, he knew that he had discovered the reason.
However, this saying "Don't plant mulberry trees in front and don't plant willow trees in the back" has been passed down since ancient times, so Zhou Shengquan knew it and Gu Ning didn't think it was anything strange.
Besides, Gu Ning originally believed that there were people who understood these things.
"Master, what does this mean? Is there something wrong with these willow trees and locust trees?" Zhao Yecheng was so scared when he heard this that he broke out in a cold sweat. Although he felt that it was nonsense to say that there was something wrong with the tree, he did not say it directly for fear of upsetting Zhou Shengquan.
Because it was Zhou Shengquan who was the Feng Shui master, not himself, and since he had invited him, he would naturally listen to what he said first instead of expressing doubts as soon as he arrived.
Besides, Zhou Shengquan has a weird temper! If it weren't for the fact that his good friend Xia Haijun had some relationship with Zhou Shengquan, he might not have come forward! "Let's go in and talk," Zhou Shengquan said, then turned around and walked into the house, and Zhao Yecheng followed immediately.
After returning to the living room, Zhou Shengquan said in a cold voice: "There is a saying since ancient times, 'Don't plant mulberry trees in front and don't plant willows behind.' The willow tree itself is yin, which has the effect of attracting ghosts. The locust tree is also called the ghost locust tree. There are large tree tumors on its body, which is a good place for ghosts to attach. Therefore, planting willows and locust trees behind the house is a taboo, because too many yin objects will affect the yang energy here, causing imbalance between yin and yang, which will also affect the luck and health of the people living in the villa. The reason why your forehead is black and your spirits are low is for this reason."
"W-what?" Hearing this, Zhao Yecheng was dumbfounded, feeling extremely unbelievable. At the same time, he also felt a chill running up from the soles of his feet. He couldn't help but shiver all over. He was terrified. After swallowing hard, he asked, "Master, you, are you saying that there are ghosts between the willow and locust trees?"
Ghost, although the word scared him, he still couldn't believe in the existence of this thing.
However, he still didn't dare to refute.
"I don't know whether there are ghosts or not, but it is true that willow and locust trees attract evil spirits, so these willow and locust trees must be uprooted," said Zhou Shengquan.
Yes, he didn’t see any ghosts now, because even though he understood Feng Shui and metaphysics, he didn’t have the Yin-Yang Eyes, so he couldn’t see anything.
However, he believes that ghosts exist.
"Then, if we pull up these willow and locust trees, my family members won't feel unwell?" Zhao Yecheng asked. What he was most worried about was the health of his family members.
"Yes, based on the results of my inspection, this is the case. So we should first eradicate the willow and locust trees and then observe the situation. However, the willow and locust trees cannot be pulled up casually, because it will disrupt the yin and yang, so we must choose an auspicious day." Zhou Shengquan said.
"Okay, okay, then I'll trouble you, Master Zhou." Now Zhao Yecheng couldn't care whether these things were true or false. Since Zhou Shengquan said so, and since the willow and locust trees had bad meanings, they must be removed.
However, at the same time, Zhao Yecheng also thought of his second uncle, and his heart became completely chilled. He asked him to plant these willow and locust trees, which obviously had ulterior motives!
Although it is still uncertain whether it is the willow and locust trees that are the cause, but since these willow and locust trees are ominous, it is enough to prove that his second uncle's purpose is not pure.
In fact, the relationship between their family and the second uncle's family is not very good, but there has never been any conflict. The two families get along politely. And I have helped the second uncle's family with many things! After all, I am a big family, and the second uncle's family is more ordinary, so there are some things that I will help.
Of course, I won’t help blindly.
He thought that he was very kind to his second uncle's family, and that his second uncle had no reason to harm him! But now, he couldn't believe his second uncle.
If nothing serious happened this time, he could keep silent and pretend that he knew nothing, but in the future, he would not be of any help to him.
