Chapter 8

Professor Zhao, a retired old professor from Xiang University, had many students who were either wealthy or held high positions.

Professor Zhao was highly respected not only in Xiang University but also throughout Xiang City. Apart from his academic achievements, the most important reason was that he had a good son, a vice mayor of Xiang University.

"Old Professor Zhao, just say what you have to say! I haven't had many people believe in my skills since I learned them. After all, this can also be considered feudal superstition," Su Jiu laughed, trying to ease the tension.

Su Jiu was very clear about Professor Zhao's attitude. For Professor Zhao, feng shui was more out of curiosity than shock. Something passed down by our ancestors for over two thousand years must have its reasons.

"It's like this, Xiao Jiu. I have a friend whose family has been experiencing some strange things lately. My friend suspects it's a feng shui issue. As you know, I am an intellectual. When I first heard about it, I didn't take it seriously. However, after what happened a few days ago, I realized my own shallowness."

"Xiao Jiu, when do you have time to take a look?"

Professor Zhao's tone surprised Su Jiu. Su Jiu never expected that Professor Zhao would come to ask for his help. Originally, Su Jiu thought that Professor Zhao was just curious about the face reading he had done a few days ago, at most, curious about feng shui. He didn't expect that Professor Zhao's tone now was one of complete belief in feng shui as a mysterious and real art.

"Old Professor Zhao, you flatter me. There's no problem with this. As long as the other party believes in me, a young guy, and doesn't think I'm a fraud, it's fine."

Su Jiu readily agreed, feeling very happy that someone believed in feng shui.

"However, not in the next few days. I have some things to deal with, probably in three or four days." Suddenly, Su Jiu thought of the second teaching building and changed his words.

The second teaching building was a significant matter. Others might not know, but Su Jiu was very clear. The feng shui of the second teaching building was like a time bomb, a time bomb buried in the campus, which could explode at any moment.

"It's fine. My friend isn't in a hurry. He has invited many so-called masters recently, but nothing has worked. If it weren't for the news that our school is inviting a master for academic exchange, he wouldn't have mentioned this to me." Professor Zhao waved his hand, indifferent.

"The school is inviting a master for academic exchange? Is it about the second teaching building?" Su Jie asked, puzzled by Professor Zhao's words.

"Exactly. It's those old guys causing trouble. What kind of society are we in now? Still so superstitious. What kind of academic exchange? In my opinion, they're just a bunch of frauds. But speaking of which, the second teaching building is indeed very strange..." Professor Zhao said angrily, then suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was Su Jiu, feeling awkward and unable to finish his sentence.

"Ha ha, Old Professor Zhao, it's fine, please continue. What's so strange about the second teaching building?" Su Jiu laughed, knowing that Professor Zhao, despite his age, was a straightforward person who spoke his mind. Su Jiu always respected such elders.

"Speaking of the second teaching building, it goes back more than ten years..."

According to Professor Zhao, the second teaching building was an old building from over ten years ago. It was supposed to be demolished during the last campus renovation to expand the campus area. This building, which had stood for decades, was about to be demolished.

However, strange things began to happen around that time.

From the first internal meeting where the second teaching building was designated for demolition, strange things started to occur. From the first day the first demolition team started working, there were problems. Several construction workers fell from the building for no apparent reason.

What was terrifying was not the incident itself.

Falling from the seventh floor, a person would usually die or be permanently disabled. However, these construction workers only suffered injuries, with the most severe breaking their limbs.

At that time, the government was heavily against feudal superstition, promoting atheism. Neither the school nor the construction company believed in such superstitions, so the demolition continued. However, what happened afterward was even stranger.

Back then, houses were demolished from the top floor down. There was no blasting or machinery; it was all done by human labor.

At the time, all the construction workers would become weak when they reached the seventh floor. Those who stayed on the seventh floor for a long time would become completely exhausted. When they came down from the seventh floor, they would be as if they had been sick for three days and three nights. However, others who went up would be fine.

This caused a great panic at the time. Various methods were tried, but nothing worked. Eventually, the matter was dropped.

The second teaching building was thus preserved.

Over the past ten years, some strange things have happened, but they were not significant compared to what happened back then.

After listening to Professor Zhao, Su Jiu remained silent, putting down his chopsticks and thinking deeply.

"From what Old Professor Zhao said, this feng shui formation has been active for over ten years. The most critical point is that the thing underground seems to have its own consciousness." Su Jiu was shocked by this thought.

What kind of feng shui formation required over ten years to activate? Who was behind such a layout?

Su Jiu had already investigated the second teaching building. The feng shui formation was clearly about to manifest. This formation had been active for over ten years, using the yang energy of the school to refine the object underground. Now, the feng shui formation was in its final stages.

Thinking about this, Su Jiu was extremely shocked. What kind of object needed the yang energy of a school to refine it, and what kind of object had such a strong negative energy field?

Most importantly, who could have set up such a vast feng shui formation over ten years ago? What level of cultivation would they have reached now?

Currently, Su Jiu had entered the qi cultivation stage. To set up such a feng shui formation would take months, even half a year, of preparation. The person who set up this formation did it over ten years ago.

Now, the feng shui formation was about to bear fruit. This person would likely appear at Xiang University soon. If they were a righteous person, it would be fine.

If they were someone who disregarded the secular world, it would be a disaster for Xiang University.

From the golden characters in his mind, Su Jiu knew that the object refined by the feng shui formation required a sacrifice when it manifested.

If it was a righteous person, there would be no need to worry, as they would use their own qi to nurture it. If it was an evil person, they might choose a blood sacrifice.

In this short moment, numerous thoughts flashed through Su Jiu's mind, with various knowledge and information appearing.

Su Jiu knew that this was mostly due to the compass in his mind. He had already accepted the changes in his mind.

Clearly, the information he had just received left Su Jiu a bit unprepared.

"Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu..."

"En, Old Professor Zhao, please continue, I'm listening!"

Professor Zhao had called out to Su Jiu twice, seeing him lost in thought.

"Because of this, the school decided a few years ago to invite some high monks or masters every year under the guise of academic exchange to perform rituals and blessings. In my opinion, it's just for psychological comfort. So many years have passed, and nothing major has happened in the second teaching building. As for the demolition incident over ten years ago, it's mostly just rumors, not to be taken seriously."

"Anyway, having this 1970s-style teaching building here actually shows the cultural depth of Xiang University. I think it's quite good..."

Professor Zhao ate a few bites of the dish, muttering to himself.

On the surface, Su Jiu seemed to be listening, but his mind was racing.

"The situation is probably more complicated than I imagined. When I investigated the second teaching building yesterday, I only went up to the third floor and didn't go to the seventh floor. From what Old Professor Zhao said, the seventh floor seems to be the key. As for the thing underground, it's currently beyond my ability to affect. I need to find a way to deal with this feng shui formation, or something serious will happen..."

Su Jiu muttered to himself, making a decision to prepare in the afternoon and investigate the second teaching building again in the evening to see what was really going on.

PS: Sorry, I had something come up yesterday. Here's the update. "Feng Shui" is still a new book. Everyone can collect it and wait for it to grow before reading it all at once!
