Chapter 26

Li Lao walked in front, followed by Su Jiu and Zhao Lao, the three of them entered the villa and went into the side hall. Li Lao's villa was a combination of Eastern and Western styles, a layout that was the main model of the Panlong Mountain Villa and currently the most popular style.

The dining room was next to the main hall, and the three of them quickly arrived there.

The table was already set with the meals prepared by the nanny.

"Master Su, you said that the feng shui layout has been basically resolved. What else needs to be done after that?" Li Lao, who had sat down, asked Su Jiu.

"This is very simple. Just arrange for two people to move the stone lions forward by ten centimeters."

"Is there any particular reason for this?" Hearing Su Jiu's calm response, Li Lao asked nervously.

Originally, Li Lao was not particularly impressed by Su Jiu's attitude, but after witnessing Su Jiu's miraculous skills just now, Li Lao's attitude had completely changed.

"The Panlong Mountain Villa uses the Bagua Panlong feng shui layout. The Fire Heart Sha layout itself is not harmful, but because your villa is the best in terms of feng shui in the entire neighborhood, the principle of extremes leading to their opposites applies. In feng shui, there are no absolute things. Good feng shui does not mean everything is good; it just means that the beneficial aspects outweigh the harmful ones. The two stone lions at the entrance were used to alter the original feng shui layout, leading to the current situation."

"Originally, the Bagua Panlong feng shui layout gathered good feng shui and emitted the negative energy above the sky. However, someone used this to store the negative energy inside the stone lions. As a result, the negative energy could not be released, and the good feng shui layout became bad. I have already resolved the array inside the stone lions, so the feng shui layout is basically resolved."

"As for why the stone lions need to be moved forward by ten centimeters, it is to quickly restore the feng shui field of the Bagua Panlong layout. The original position of the stone lions was contaminated by negative energy, and the feng shui field was different. By moving the stone lions, the situation changes, and the restoration of the Bagua Panlong layout will not be affected by the original negative energy, allowing the feng shui field to recover more quickly."

Hearing Li Lao's question, Su Jiu patiently explained.

"Oh! I see, Master Su, you really know a lot!" Li Lao was truly convinced and sincerely said.

Thinking about his previous attitude, Li Lao was glad he didn't say more. Otherwise, offending such a master like Master Su would have been disastrous. At this thought, Li Lao's heart trembled.

"This is just common knowledge in feng shui, not particularly profound!" Su Jiu humbly said. Su Jiu was very clear that he was still a novice and could not be considered a master. The words he just said were something he had just learned from his mind.

Just then, as Su Jiu walked into the dining room, a significant change occurred in his mind.

In his mind, the golden compass that had been shattered during the heavenly punishment was completely restored, and a large amount of information in the form of golden characters appeared.

It wasn't until Li Lao asked him that Su Jiu came back to his senses.

At this moment, Su Jiu truly understood feng shui.

He was still a novice, and a true feng shui master in ancient times was far beyond his current level. A true feng shui master could make mountains bow with a single step, make the dragon veins roar, and even manipulate the earth's energy, shake the earth, and change the course of rivers and mountains. This was the true meaning of a feng shui master.

Of course, Su Jiu's humility was only relative to the golden compass in his mind. In today's society, if Su Jiu was still considered a novice, then most feng shui masters probably hadn't even found the threshold, let alone be apprentices.

Su Jiu shook his head, feeling a bit bitter. The sudden appearance of so much information from the golden compass in his mind left him no time to check it. He needed a quiet environment to absorb it properly.

Su Jiu had no appetite for food at the moment. If it weren't for Li Lao, he would have rushed back to his dormitory to lie down and carefully examine the changes in his mind.

"Master Su, there's no need to be so humble! The skills you just demonstrated were definitely at the master level."

Zhao Lao finally came out of his embarrassment. Although Su Jiu was a student at Xiang University and he was a retired professor, the impact Su Jiu had on him in the villa yard completely overshadowed this relationship. At this moment, Zhao Lao recognized Su Jiu's other identity and could no longer treat him as an ordinary college student. After all, it was better to be respectful to such a talented person!

"Older Zhao, please don't say that. Just call me Jiu! I'm not used to it when you call me that!" Su Jiu immediately noticed the change in Zhao Lao's tone and quickly said, genuinely. Su Jiu was very clear that his attitude toward Zhao Lao was fundamentally different from that toward Li Lao. If it weren't for Zhao Lao's invitation, he might not have come to Li Lao's place to check the feng shui. Therefore, Su Jiu had always respected Zhao Lao.

"Ha ha!" Hearing Su Jiu's words, Zhao Lao just laughed, but his smile became even more sincere.

Seeing this, Su Jiu understood Zhao Lao's decision.

"Li Lao, I have classes this afternoon. After the meal, I'll need you to arrange for a driver to take me back to school. The stone lions can be moved by anyone you arrange. There's not much left for me to do here."

"Master Su, it's still early! Why don't you stay a bit longer? I have some good tea, a rare collection. Why don't you try it later?"

Hearing Master Su's words, Li Lao immediately tried to persuade him to stay. Although the feng shui layout had been resolved, Li Lao subconsciously hoped that Master Su would oversee the final step, which would give him more peace of mind.

"Li Lao, I have classes this afternoon. I am still a student, and my studies are my priority. Don't worry about the Fire Heart Sha layout; it has been resolved. Moving the stone lions is not complicated. Just follow my instructions, and there will be no problem. If anything goes wrong, you can come to Xiang University to find me. Don't worry about it!"

"Master Su, what about the matter I mentioned earlier, going to the capital... What do you think?"

"En! I can't go to the capital right now. Next month is my grandfather's 70th birthday, so I'm sorry, Li Lao, you'll have to wait."

Li Lao felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this but did not show it.

"Alright! Master Su, when you have time, just give me a call, and I'll make the arrangements!"
