Chapter 44

In 1995, the incident at the Wu Hou Temple in Chengdu, Sichuan, indeed had nothing to do with the current Chen Family Village, and even Su Jiu himself had never been there.

Moreover, in 1995, Su Jiu was just a child, and it was even more impossible for him to have experienced that event.

However, Su Jiu's grandfather had experienced that event.

Moreover, Su Jiu's grandfather was one of those who resolved the feng shui situation.

Su Jiu had heard about the related feng shui situation from his grandfather.

In 1995, the national archaeological team entered the Wu Hou Temple in Sichuan for archaeological work.

The appearance of this relic shocked the entire archaeological community.

Although the tomb was from the Qing Dynasty, its layout was very special.

Many elements and layouts were not found in previous Qing Dynasty tombs.

The feng shui layout of the entire tomb was extraordinary, which was the main reason for the involvement of the national archaeological team.

Everything went smoothly in the early stages of the archaeological work, and all the artifacts and tombs were well-preserved.

However, in the later stages, when they dug to the main tomb chamber, an accident occurred.

Zombies, yes, zombies. The tomb contained three zombies, or more accurately, three yin corpses, as described in the feng shui world.

At that time, Su Jiu heard from his grandfather that many masters from the feng shui association went to Sichuan to assist the relevant departments in resolving the issue.

Su Jiu's grandfather did not reveal many details, but he did talk a lot about the feng shui layout at that time.

The feng shui layout of Chen Family Village was very similar to what his grandfather described, with almost no differences.

This was precisely what shocked Su Jiu.

The current feng shui layout of Chen Family Village was unsuitable for living, yet the village had existed for four hundred years, which was undeniable.

The problem lay here, so Su Jiu speculated that the feng shui layout was definitely related to the Bull God Cave in Chen Family Village.

Using the feng shui layout, Su Jiu deduced the location of the tomb, which should be where the Bull God Cave was located.

Su Jiu asked Uncle Three, and immediately knew whether his deduction was correct.

Seeing Uncle Three's puzzled expression, Su Jiu smiled inwardly.

"Chen Family Village indeed has little to do with the 1995 Wu Hou Temple incident, but the current feng shui layout of Chen Family Village is basically the same as that of the Wu Hou Temple," Su Jiu explained Uncle Three's confusion.

"Same feng shui layout?" Uncle Three was surprised. He knew about the Wu Hou Temple incident and what had happened. If the feng shui layout of the Wu Hou Temple was the same as that of Chen Family Village, did that mean there were zombies in the Bull God Cave of Chen Family Village?

Uncle Three was startled by this thought.

The idea that the Bull God Cave, revered by generations of the Chen family, contained zombies made Uncle Three's face change several times.

Su Jiu smiled inwardly, observing everything.

"Uncle Three, the situation is not as serious as you think," Su Jiu said, knowing Uncle Three's thoughts and trying to reassure him.

"Although the feng shui layout of Chen Family Village is the same as that of the Wu Hou Temple, the layout of Chen Family Village is smaller. Therefore, despite the Bull God Cave having existed for four hundred years, it should not have the same situation as the Wu Hou Temple," Su Jiu explained to Uncle Three.

"That's good. Master Su, I'll leave this matter to you. The future of Chen Family Village is in your hands," Uncle Three sincerely admired Su Jiu. Although he had always respected Su Jiu, it was out of respect for Su Jiu's abilities.

But now, Uncle Three genuinely respected Su Jiu.

There was no need for Su Jiu to get involved in this matter, and the future of Chen Family Village had little to do with Su Jiu.

As a feng shui master, Uncle Three knew how powerful the zombies at the Wu Hou Temple in 1995 were and how dangerous the Bull God Cave in Chen Family Village could be. Yet, Master Su had agreed to handle this matter, which made Uncle Three look at him differently.

"Uncle Three, I need to go to the county town for a couple of days to prepare some things. Please take care of Chen Jie's family. When I return, I will deal with the Bull God Cave," Su Jiu looked at Uncle Three seriously and said.

"Don't worry, Master Su. I will take care of Chen Jie's family," Uncle Three understood Su Jiu's concern and agreed.

Indeed, Su Jiu was still worried about another issue. Only Uncle Three knew the secret of Chen Family Village, but the custom of worshipping the Bull God Cave was known to several respected elders in the village.

This was what Su Jiu was worried about. Now that Chen Jie's father had recovered, it was natural that he would no longer participate in the worship of the Bull God Cave.

Su Jiu was concerned that the elders in Chen Family Village would adhere to the custom and insist on holding the coffin ceremony for Chen Jie's father again.

This would certainly lead to conflicts within Chen Jie's family.

If that happened, the situation would be out of control.

Therefore, Su Jiu raised this issue with Uncle Three.

After getting Uncle Three's assurance, Su Jiu said goodbye to Chen Jie and immediately set off for the county town.

This time, Su Jiu needed to prepare many things.

Some items were not available in Chen Family Village, so he needed to go to the county town to prepare them. Even then, he was not sure if he could find everything, as many things had been lost or were hard to find in modern society.

After saying goodbye to Chen Jie, Su Jiu arrived in the county town. He had come in a hurry and only brought his compass, which he never left without.

Clearly, entering the Bull God Cave would be very dangerous, and many preparations were needed.

Therefore, he needed to prepare many things, such as lanterns, ropes, yellow paper, incense, cinnabar, and so on.

Dafang County was not very large, much smaller and more backward compared to Xiang City.

However, as a county town, it still had the scale of a county town.

After getting off the bus, Su Jiu looked at the bustling bus station and thought for a moment.

Leaving the station, Su Jiu hailed a taxi, gave the driver a destination, and set off.

Although Su Jiu was not familiar with Dafang County, the information available in modern society made it easy for him to find what he needed. He had already searched for the necessary items on his phone during the trip and memorized the locations.
