Chapter 169: Shocking Changes in the Village

Xiang Lao San's words shocked me, and then I was stunned on the spot, and I felt as if my brain had crashed, and everything was blank.

After a long while, I came back to my senses from this stupid state, opened my mouth, and said in a trembling voice: "You mean... someone wants to sacrifice all the villagers in our village to revive those terracotta warriors?"

"Yes and no." Xiang Lao San said, "The reason why I say no is because it's not just your village, all creatures within a ten-mile radius will not escape death, and it's not a sacrifice, but a blood refining. Although the person who set up the fatal Feng Shui formation is an evil person with ulterior motives, it must be said that his methods are indeed very impressive. Even the Xu family, who are famous for Feng Shui and Liu Yao, can't break this fatal Feng Shui formation. Otherwise, the Xu family would not let this formation continue to operate. You know, it only takes three days for this formation to refine the blood of all creatures within a ten-mile radius, and finally turn them into pure flesh and blood and soul power, including myself!"

"You are going to die too?" I immediately widened my eyes and looked at Xiang Lao San in astonishment: "Can't you escape?"

After hearing what I said, Xiang Lao San smiled coldly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Escape? How can you escape? The formation has been set up and started to operate. The current situation is that people outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out. Otherwise, according to the time, your master should have returned last night." After saying that, Xiang Lao San shook his head helplessly, and the helpless look in his eyes became more and more intense.

He sighed, and then said tiredly: "It's all fate!"

"You mean, my master has come back? But because of the formation, he can't get in?" I

thought that the reason why my master hasn't come back yet is because the journey is too long, or something happened on the way.

But I never thought that he was isolated outside by the formation.

But...

With the development of modern technology, can a Feng Shui formation really isolate a ten-mile radius in an instant?

What form does this isolation take? Does everything within the ten-mile radius disappear from this world, or does it mean that people from the outside world can still see the scene within the ten-mile radius, but just can't get in?

Although my master taught me how to practice and martial arts since I was young, he never taught me the art of Feng Shui or the method of the Gua Gua. So I can say that I understand nine out of ten things about Feng Shui formations, but I don't understand one.

I expressed my doubts to the Third Brother, who shook his head and said, "Of course the ten-li area is still there, but it is isolated by a Qi field. And I suspect that the person who set up the fatal Feng Shui formation may have set up other formations outside to confuse the relevant departments. Otherwise, the relevant departments would have been alarmed long ago."

"Related departments? What departments are they?" I asked in confusion. Xiang Lao San smiled and patted my shoulder, saying, "Boy, although you are a descendant of the Yinren lineage and a future living Yincha, I have to say that you are still too young. This world is not as simple as it seems. There are Taoists among the people, and there are also such people in the government. And these Taoists in the relevant departments are specifically responsible for managing the Taoists among the people. As the saying goes, knights use martial arts to break taboos. If there is no management, won't the world be in chaos? After all, Taoists know much more than ordinary people, whether it is about money or other aspects."

I nodded when I heard it.

Xiang Lao San was right. Compared with ordinary people, Taoists have huge natural advantages.

For example, if someone knows Feng Shui, they can make a fortune by casually setting up a Feng Shui formation. They can even ruin the luck and Feng Shui of a person if they dislike him. Not only will they have bad luck, but if their luck is gone, their family may fall into decline.

This is just the Feng Shui technique. If someone who has practiced evil magic wants to harm others, it will be even easier, and they can even do it without anyone noticing.

At this time, Xiang Lao San's expression suddenly changed, and even Tietou, who was standing next to him, stood up suddenly, turned his head to look in another direction, and then barked.

"You are injured, go back to the village to recuperate first. Don't worry, your master will be able to come in one day at the latest." After Xiang Lao San said this, he ignored me and called Tietou. Then, he and his dog quickly rushed to the top of the mountain behind.

"Where are you going? Did something happen on the top of the mountain?" I asked in surprise, but Xiang Lao San ignored me at all. Instead, he and Tietou plunged into a patch of reeds. In just a moment, our figures were submerged by the reeds.

I didn't chase him because Xiang Lao San was right. I hadn't slept all night and was injured. The most important thing was that Hu Zi was taken away by Miao Cuicui. The first thing I had to do now was to go back to the village to see if Hu Zi had returned.

I took a deep breath, looked up at the dim sun in the sky, and then walked carefully down the mountain.

The road was very steep and slippery. I walked slowly, and I was thinking about it.

Just a few days ago, our village was very peaceful, and everyone lived a stable life from sunrise to sunset. But who would have thought that in just ten days, our village would have undergone earth-shaking changes.

The yellow-skinned man who blocked the road and asked for a title, the widow Wang who behaved strangely, the corpse-raiser Liu Lame, the mother-son evil Miao Cuicui, plus the mysterious Xu family and my master with a hidden identity...

It was as if in just a few days, these familiar villagers including my master had suddenly changed and became another person.

And they did show a side of themselves that I had never seen before.

Even outsiders such as Xiang Lao San, Feng Chu Ran and Xiang Lao San's master, as if they had made an appointment, appeared in our village one after another.

Could it be that these people are living in hiding in our village for the ancient tomb in the back mountain?

And Xiang Lao San, he asked my master to repay him a favor. How did my master owe him this favor? What did Xiang Lao San want my master to do?

Feng Chu Ran, is she really just curious about my cheap brother-in-law?

What about me?

The owner of the embroidered shoes said that I might not live past the age of 20. Do I really only have two years to live?

Also, where is the opportunity she mentioned? What does she mean?

But then, I shook my head again.

Xiang Lao San said that under the cover of this fatal feng shui bureau, no creature within a ten-mile radius can survive for more than three days.

Why should I think about what will happen two years later!

At this point in the year, I took a deep breath, then quickened my pace and quickly rushed to our village.

About half an hour later, I finally walked out of the back mountain and came to the entrance of our village.

However, when I entered our village and saw the scene inside our village, I was stunned.
