Chapter 7

As the voice fell, a middle-aged man in his fifties, dressed in black, emerged from the car. Accompanying him were a man and a woman, the woman beautiful and the man handsome.

After getting out of the car, the middle-aged man called out anxiously, "Don't dig, don't dig!"

Soon, the middle-aged man approached the grave, and Huang Baiwan asked in confusion, "Mr. He, why are you here?"

The man called Mr. He said solemnly, "Why am I here? If I don't come, you'll be committing a grave mistake."

"Who, who told you to dig the grave?" Mr. He asked angrily, as if they were digging up his family's ancestral tomb.

Huang Baiwan glanced at me subconsciously and then said to Mr. He, "Mr. He, this is Mr. Li."

"Mr. Li, this is He Zhongtian, Mr. He, the last disciple of the great Master Zuhuo," Huang Baiwan quickly introduced.

So, this was the legendary Master Zuhuo, the master who had designed the feng shui for the Huang family's villa. Both Master Zuhuo and his teacher were very powerful, so their disciples must not be ordinary people!

Since it was my first job, I should be polite.

I was about to greet him respectfully, but before I could open my mouth, He Zhongtian looked down at me condescendingly and said, "Old Mr. Huang, are you sure? You let such a person dig the grave? Don't you know that digging a grave is a major taboo? Even in the countryside, people don't dig graves casually."

"Moreover, this is the grave that my master's teacher chose, his greatest masterpiece! In the entire city, who could find such a good spot?"

Hearing this, Huang Baiwan's brows furrowed slightly, and he explained calmly, "I know the feng shui here is good, but many things have happened in my family, and Mr. Li has predicted them all."

Before Huang Baiwan could finish, He Zhongtian interrupted, "Mr. Li?! He predicted what? It's just a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse. He read a few books and now he's pretending to be a master. Old Mr. Huang, you've really been deceived this time."

"Such feng shui, and he dares to dig and damage the feng shui's energy. This proves he's a fraud! Any true feng shui master would never allow digging at a grave."

After saying this hastily, he looked at me with a piercing gaze, as if trying to intimidate me with his eyes. This man had a bad temper and a strong sense of pride.

"Little fraud, you also study feng shui, right? Then I'll ask you, do you know the definition of San Yuan feng shui?"

"Do you know the principles of San He feng shui?"

"Do you know the difference between the先天卦 (Xian Tian Gua) and the后天卦 (Hou Tian Gua) in the Five Elements of Geography?"

After He Zhongtian finished speaking, he pointed at me, and at that moment, his aura reached its peak.

At that moment, the gap between us was like he was a powerful figure standing at the top of the world, while I was a small fraud.

Everyone stared at me in shock, waiting for my response!

However, I didn't answer such low-level questions. If I did, it would be just as he wanted, making him a high and mighty teacher and me a student caught cheating.

I tried to keep my eyes gentle and then asked calmly, "Since you think there's no problem with the feng shui here, then tell me, why have three young people in the Huang family died in the past five years? Why have four male infants died in infancy? Why have the two thousand-year-old evergreen trees withered? And why, after digging three feet into the ground, are there countless insects?"

"Mr. He, you also study feng shui. Please explain to me what it means when the evergreen trees in front of the grave wither and insects appear after digging three feet deep?"

Faced with my series of questions, I saw the once high and mighty Mr. He's eyes flicker.

He was flustered; he seemed unable to explain these issues.

Without waiting for him to gather his thoughts, I immediately turned to Huang Baiwan and said, "Grandpa Huang, if you trust me, Li Yao, then dig the grave and open the coffin now. If you don't trust me, I'll leave right now!"

Hearing my words, Huang Baiwan's face changed dramatically, but after a few seconds, he made his decision, "Mr. Li, of course I trust you. Dig, follow Mr. Li's instructions, and continue digging."

"Old Mr. Huang..." He Zhongtian called out anxiously, but before he could finish, Huang Baiwan interrupted, "Enough, Mr. He, don't say anything more! If you want to stay and watch, then don't speak. If you don't want to watch, then leave! This is a matter of the Huang family."

He Zhongtian, anxious and uneasy, patted his thigh and said, "What a sin, what a sin! I don't know what kind of spell this boy has cast on you!"

Earlier, Huang Baiwan had told me in the car that he had consulted the disciple of Master Zu, He Zhongtian, about the feng shui of the family's yin and yang residences, and he had guaranteed that it had nothing to do with feng shui.

As for the many misfortunes in the Huang family, he attributed them to fate.

Huang Baiwan had believed it before, but after today's events, I think he no longer does. It was because of this confidence that I dared to speak to Huang Baiwan like that.

As the men continued digging, I glanced at He Zhongtian subconsciously. He didn't leave; he just stood there with a worried look. When he saw me looking at him, he immediately changed, and his eyes glared at me fiercely, as if he wanted to eat me alive.

I wasn't afraid because my grandfather had told me that as long as I believed I was right, I shouldn't be afraid of anyone or anything.

Because Huang Baiwan was there, He Zhongtian only expressed his hatred in this way and didn't dare to do anything out of line.

Half an hour later, one of the men digging the grave suddenly shouted, "Master, we've found the coffin!"

I and Huang Baiwan went over, and indeed, we saw the lid of the coffin. After years of erosion, the lid was already corroded, but it hadn't completely rotted away, possibly due to the quality of the coffin.

Huang Baiwan looked at me, and I saw him choke up. I ordered the men, "Keep digging until you can open the coffin lid!"

They exchanged glances and then lowered their heads to continue working.

A few minutes later, after much effort, they finally opened the coffin lid.

The moment the coffin lid was opened, everyone gasped. Inside the coffin was a skeleton, and next to the skeleton was a toad, a toad with a red body and only three legs!
