Chapter 18

The owner of the villa is surnamed Li, named Yulong. He is a prominent figure in Xiang City, and if someone were to see Old Li personally welcoming a guest at this moment, they would surely be too astonished to speak.

In Xiang City, even if the mayor came in person, the treatment would probably be no more than this.

Old Li's esteemed status is not due to his wealth. He is in his sixties, but the key point is that he has an elderly father who survived from the old days and now lives in retirement in Jing City. The Panlong Villa in Xiang City is just one of Old Li's properties.

This is the main reason for Old Li's special status.

Old Li sized up the young man in front of him, finding him very ordinary and unremarkable.

Initially, he was not particularly interested in the young man introduced by his longtime friend, Old Zhao, even though he believed in feng shui. However, every feng shui master he had known was old and had a sage-like appearance. This young man in front of him looked like an ordinary person, with a somewhat childish aura. In Xiang City, there were plenty of such young people. How could this ordinary young man possibly be a feng shui master? Out of respect for Old Zhao, Old Li did not say anything at the time, planning to discuss it with Old Zhao later to avoid being deceived, as there are many scammers these days.

However, the young man's words just now startled him.

Every word and symptom the young man mentioned were correct. If he had never told anyone, not even Old Zhao, and only his personal secretary knew his condition, he would have suspected that the young man had done some prior investigation to deceive him.

"Young man, how did you know?" After a moment, Li Yulong asked, voicing his doubts.

Old Zhao, standing to the side, was also extremely surprised. Although his friend had never told him about these symptoms, after decades of friendship, he could tell from his friend's expression that what Su Jiu said was true.

He had brought Su Jiu here with a trial attitude, only hearing about his friend's condition and the possibility of feng shui issues. But hearing Su Jiu's words, he did not expect the situation to be so serious, to the point of endangering his health. This was the reason for Old Zhao's shock.

"Su Jiu, tell us, what's the reason?" Old Zhao's words were different from Old Li's, though both were questions. Old Zhao, however, directly asked for the cause.

Subconsciously, Old Zhao chose to believe Su Jiu.

Noticing this change, Su Jiu couldn't help but smile. If he couldn't see this, he would have wasted his time learning feng shui. After a pause, Su Jiu turned and said,

"This is quite simple. Generally, anyone who understands feng shui can see the feng shui issues in your villa courtyard. Combining this with your facial features, one can deduce the symptoms I mentioned earlier."

"How can you see that?" Old Zhao, a straightforward person, immediately asked upon hearing Su Jiu's words.

Su Jiu smiled, not minding that Old Zhao had interrupted him.

"From the moment I entered this neighborhood, I observed its feng shui. Overall, the neighborhood's feng shui is based on the principle of being surrounded by mountains and water. The winding roads leading into the neighborhood resemble a dragon's path, forming a dragon vein. However, in terms of feng shui, this is just a common layout. The artificial streams and hills are a simple mountain-water feng shui setup, and the road resembling a dragon is just an imitation of a dragon vein. Overall, this feng shui layout is not particularly good."

At this point, Su Jiu paused.

"However, I sensed that such a simple layout could not create the aura in this neighborhood. After careful observation, I noticed that the orientation of the main gates of each villa in the neighborhood is different. Have you noticed that the orientation of the main gates of each villa in the neighborhood, if observed carefully, resembles the Bagua diagram?"

"The feng shui layout of this Panlong neighborhood was definitely designed by a master. Using the principle of being surrounded by mountains and water to form feng shui energy, and the Bagua array to gather the energy, it acts like a qi basin. The roads in the neighborhood, resembling a dragon's body, form the Bagua Panlong array, stabilizing the feng shui of the area. Living here is said to bring wealth and no disasters."

"Su Jiu, if the feng shui of the villas in this neighborhood is so good, why is my friend experiencing such feng shui issues?" Before Su Jiu could finish, Old Zhao asked.

Old Li, standing to the side, appeared to be listening attentively, but his shock was indescribable. The reason he bought this villa in Xiang City was based on the advice of a master who recognized the feng shui here. Although feng shui is often considered superstition by outsiders, at his position, he knew things that ordinary people did not. He still believed in feng shui. The young man in front of him had accurately described the feng shui of Panlong Villa, and if it weren't for the master's words, he would have thought the young man was bluffing.

Seeing all this, Su Jiu's smile grew. He was not bothered by Old Zhao's question, as he had anticipated it. He had explained so much to achieve this effect. Although he was young, he could not be underestimated.

"When I entered the neighborhood, I also thought about this. At first, I wondered if Old Li's issues were not related to feng shui. However, when I entered Old Li's villa, I was certain that the problem was feng shui-related. When I saw Old Li's facial features, I confirmed my hypothesis."

Su Jiu did not pause, raising his right hand and pointing forward.

"Old Li, have you noticed anything different about the stone lions at the entrance of your villa?" Su Jiu pointed to the two stone lions at the entrance, smiling as he asked.

Following Su Jiu's finger, there were two stone lions at the entrance. Old Li, moved by Su Jiu's words, walked over and began to observe them carefully. Old Zhao and Su Jiu followed him.

Li Yulong, hearing Su Jiu's words, observed the stone lions for several minutes but did not notice anything different. However, the young man seemed to have some real skills. Since he said there was a problem, there must be something he had not noticed.

"Young man, what do you see wrong with these stone lions?" Li Yulong's face no longer showed the previous indifference, but he was not overly respectful, only adding the respectful "you" to his address.

Hearing Old Li's words, Su Jiu sensed the change in Old Li. He was clear that Old Li's change was due to his performance. In this society, to earn respect, one must demonstrate the necessary abilities. Su Jiu was confident about this.

He had only described the feng shui layout of the entire Panlong Villa, without any particularly outstanding performance. A determined person could also find out the feng shui situation of the neighborhood. Old Li must have known this, so Su Jiu did not mind his expression. He was confident that Old Li would soon respect him greatly and call him Master Su.
