Mr. Shi didn't understand feng shui, but he knew that disrupting it would definitely do more harm than good. He couldn't help but ask anxiously, "What should I do then? If I cut down these trees, will the feng shui be restored and my mother will be fine?"
Shen Ye pondered and said, “Logically speaking, if it’s just that the turbid air can’t be expelled, it won’t cause such a big impact. At most, your family members will become weaker and their fortunes will deteriorate…but the old lady’s situation is much more serious.”
Mr. Shi's expression changed drastically: "What do you mean?"
Shen Ye didn't answer, but asked him: "Who planted this tree?"
Mr. Shi immediately turned to look at his wife. He had left all the household affairs to his wife. Mrs. Shi was also a smart person. Naturally, she understood the implication of Shen Ye's words. Her face turned pale and she said, "Yes...it was my mother who asked me to plant it."
Everyone was surprised.
Mr. Shi did not doubt his wife's words. He and his wife had been together for decades, and it was impossible for them not to have even this little trust. It was also impossible for his wife to lie about such a thing.
He frowned and asked, "Did Mom tell you why she planted these trees?"
Mrs. Shi was lost in her memories when she suddenly exclaimed, "I remember now. Mom often went to the nearby park and met an old Taoist priest. He said our family was in trouble this year and needed to improve our feng shui... Mom even brought him home at that time... Later, these camphor trees were planted by the wall."
Now I finally found the reason.
Mr. Shi's face looked unhappy. He said in a deep voice, "Do you have the contact information of that Taoist priest?"
"My mother told me not to get involved in this matter, so I didn't ask any more questions." Mrs. Shi shook her head.
It seems that this matter still needs to be asked to Madam Shi, but Madam Shi is weak now. If she knew that the disaster was caused by herself, she might not be able to bear it.
Chen Ye didn't ask any more questions, pointing to the row of trees and said, "There must be something under these trees. I guess the old lady's birth date is also buried underneath... You should dig up these trees first."
Mr. Shi was horrified. Burying one's birth date and time underground sounded unlucky, and it was easy to make people think of the ancient witchcraft cases, which were about murder and robbery!
He immediately called for several excavators to come over.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Ye said: "Let me help the old lady expel the negative energy in her body first. Does the old lady usually like to wear jewelry?"
Mr. Shi nodded: "My mother likes jade."
Shen Ye said: "Then please give me a piece of jewelry that the old lady often wears."
Soon, Mr. Shi personally found a pair of emerald green jade bracelets. Perhaps because they had been worn by Old Madam Shi for a long time, they were stained with yin energy and the color was a little dull.
Shen Ye took it in his hand and looked at it for a few seconds, then took out the brush he had bought on Kaifu Street not long ago and began to draw talismans on the jade bracelet.
The brush was clearly not dipped in ink or water, but as Chen Ye moved his brush, golden lines slowly appeared on the surface of the jade bracelet.
This is amazing!
Everyone held their breath involuntarily and stared at the jade bracelet without blinking.
Only Ye Ze looked at Shen Ye with deep eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
After about five or six minutes, Shen Ye put down his pen and said, "Alright."
As he finished speaking, the golden lines on the jade bracelet disappeared.
He handed the jade bracelet to Mr. Shi and said, "Put it under the old lady's pillow. She will be healed in half a month."
After his operation, the two jade bracelets shone brightly and were no longer as dim as before.
Mr. Shi took it with gratitude and respect, and immediately asked his wife to go to Old Lady Shi's room to put the jade bracelet away.
After a while, the servant in the house suddenly ran out and shouted, "Oh no, the old lady has fainted!"
Mr. Shi's face changed and he was about to run inside.
Chen Ye stopped him and said, "It's okay, it's the jade bracelet that worked. I carved a talisman on the jade bracelet that can absorb the Yin energy in the old lady's body. It's quite overbearing at first, so it's normal for her to faint. The old lady will wake up at night. Remember to put the jade bracelet under your pillow for at least half a month."
Only then did Mr. Shi feel relieved and replied, "Okay."
Then the excavator arrived, rumbling through the gate and into the yard. Everyone rushed out to see towering trees being uprooted. Strangely, when they reached the row of trees along the left side of the yard wall, the very roots were uprooted and the trees withered visibly.
...It looks very weird.
Except for Chen Ye and Ye Ze, everyone was stunned. It was a sunny day, but everyone couldn't help but feel cold all over.
Xu Sisi hugged her arms tightly: "Is it my illusion? I feel so cold."
In fact, it was not her illusion. After the row of trees were uprooted, thick yin energy emerged from the trunks and spread around in a dark manner, making the air cold.
Chen Ye immediately distributed talismans to everyone and reassured them, "Don't be afraid. These trees have been drained dry and have gathered a lot of negative energy. Now that the negative energy is being released, people are feeling cold. Put the talismans in your pockets and you won't be afraid of the cold."
Everyone quickly took the talisman paper, and the moment their hands pinched the talisman paper, their bodies became warm again.
When Chen Ye passed the talisman paper to Ye Ze, he noticed that Ye Ze's face was calm, unaffected by the Yin Qi. Furthermore, he noticed that the purple Qi around Ye Ze was even thicker, as if protecting him. The Yin Qi that rushed towards him was instantly extinguished as soon as it touched the purple Qi at the edge.
“…” Shen Ye was jealous!
Ye Ze lowered his eyes and said softly, "Why don't you send it to me?"
Shen Ye: “…”
It would be a waste to give it to you!
But in order to prevent others from noticing Ye Ze's peculiarity, he silently handed over a piece of talisman paper.
Ye Ze smiled slightly and put the talisman paper into his pocket obediently.
Shen Ye: “…”
You are the king, not on the same level as these bronzes, there is no need to take it so seriously!
He withdrew his gaze with a depressed look, and while everyone's attention was on the excavator, he ran to the tree pit under the west wall and walked directly to the middle position. Sure enough, he saw a wooden box with peeling paint buried inside.
"Hey, there really is something." Shen Ye laughed and reached out to pick it up.
Suddenly, Ye Ze's low voice came from my ear: "Can you touch this thing?"
Shen Ye looked up and saw Ye Ze had followed him without him noticing, with a hint of worry on his face. Shen Ye wanted to laugh a little, thinking that he was very capable and that this little trick wouldn't be a problem for him. But he was still touched by Ye Ze's concern for him and patiently explained, "Don't worry, I have the talisman paper with me, so I won't be affected."
Ye Ze nodded and said nothing more.
Chen Ye picked up the wooden box and opened it. Sure enough, a strong yin energy hit him. He ignored it and peered inside the box. At the bottom lay a red brocade pouch and a brush. He ignored the pouch and first examined the brush. The pen's body was carved with black peach blossom patterns, and the nib was made of jade, its age unknown. Within the pen shaft, countless yin energy gathered, a feeling even more terrifying than a graveyard.
He held the pen under the sunlight and looked at it again. The pen body quickly turned deep red and gave off a peach wood fragrance.
"Such a good thing...what a waste." He muttered.
This pen must have been left behind by a powerful master. It is definitely a good thing. The talismans drawn with it are more powerful. But using it to harm people is such a waste.
Ye Ze'an stood beside him, listening to him mumbling, his eyes becoming even deeper.
Shen Ye turned around and handed him the brush, smiling and said, "Hold it for me for a while, okay?"
He smiled a little guilty. This pen was too yin-filled, and he asked Ye Ze to hold it, hoping to purify it. But this kind of taking advantage was totally unbecoming of his master status... Well, when I go to the bank to pick up the jade pendant later, I'll buy Ye Ze a thank-you gift...
Ye Ze looked at him deeply, asked nothing, and took the pen.
Shen Ye: “…”
This guy is so obedient?
All the trees over there had been dug out. Mr. Shi came over and asked, "What else do you need me to do?"
Shen Ye said: “It will be fine once the tree is dug up, and the old lady will be well within half a month.”
Mr. Shi showed a look of delight.
Chen Ye took out the red brocade bag from the box, poured it into his palm, and a piece of paper appeared.
“It should have your mother’s birth date written on it.” Shen Ye handed the paper to Mr. Shi.
Mr. Shi was shocked. He opened it and saw that it was indeed the case.
Chen Ye said: "There is a formation under the tree. You have dug up the tree, and the formation has been destroyed. This birth chart is useless. You can just burn it."
Mr. Shi quickly agreed and burned the paper to ashes with a lighter himself, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
He hadn't expected the matter to be resolved so easily, in less than two hours. Mr. Shi was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He had taken his mother to so many hospitals and consulted so many masters, but in the end, Shen Ye was still the most powerful.
He was completely convinced of Shen Ye and couldn't help but praise him: "Master Shen, you really are capable! Thank you so much today. If it weren't for you, my mother would still be suffering!"
Xu Sisi glanced at him with a half-smile: "You won't thank me? If I hadn't strongly recommended it..."
Thinking of his previous distrust of Shen Ye, Mr. Shi blushed: "I should thank you too."
Shen Ye said, "This matter is not over yet. The person who harmed you has not been found, and he may harm you a second time."
Mr. Shi caught the meaning behind his words and asked in surprise: "...harm me?"
Is the other party coming for him?
Shen Ye hummed, without explaining, but asked: "Do you have any enemies?"
This question stumped Mr. Shi. There was certainly competition in business, but to be honest, there wasn't any enemy to the point of murder and robbery.
Seeing him at a loss, Shen Ye carefully looked at his face and said, "I think you have a bad peach blossom recently, so you should pay attention to it in the next half month."
Mr. Shi was stunned.
His wife just came out of the house and was stunned when she heard Shen Ye's words.
Chen Ye said, "I think your mother's illness is related to your bad love affair. The other party might be targeting you... No, strictly speaking, it's targeting your wife. They want to harm your wife. But the tree was planted by your mother, and buried underground is your mother's birth date and time. She warded off disaster for your wife."
Mr. Shi's jaw dropped in shock. "You mean, there's a woman trying to replace my wife, so they made such a big scene, but in the end, it was my mom who got caught?"
Shen Ye pondered for a moment and said, “I guess so.”
What does "believe to be" mean?
Mr. Shi didn't understand.
Shen Ye said: “That rotten peach blossom may also be a man.”
Mr. Shi: “…”
Madam Shi and Xu Sisi on the side: "..."
Only Ye Ze remained calm and composed.
He thought, isn’t Shen Ye’s fiancé just a man?
The author has something to say:
Ye Ze: That man is me.
