"Zhen Dong, I just brought a box of cherries from home. They are grown by my family, organic and pollution-free. Come and try them," although Zhao Lili invited Tang Zhen Dong to taste them, she actually brought a full plastic bag to Tang Zhen Dong's room.

"Ha ha, Zhen Dong, you know, I sell fruits, so how could I be lacking in fruits?" Tang Zhen Dong had a look as if he never lacked fruits.

Actually, although Tang Zhen Dong sold fruits, he rarely ate them himself. Large cherries were a specialty of Haicheng, large, delicious, and luscious, making them the best of fruits, and of course, they were not cheap. When they first came to market, they generally cost one or two hundred yuan per pound, and even at their cheapest, they were about twenty yuan per pound.

Tang Zhen Dong earned only about a thousand yuan a month selling fruits. Could he afford to eat fruits that cost several dozen yuan per pound?

"Ha ha, Zhen Dong, just eat them. I know you sell fruits, ha ha." Zhao Lili picked up two cherries and insisted on putting them in Tang Zhen Dong's mouth.

Tang Zhen Dong was not a pedantic person. He casually took the cherries from Zhao Lili's hand and put them in his mouth. "Mm, sweet, a bit sour, just right."

"Then eat more, ha ha. By the way, Zhen Dong, there's something I've wanted to ask you for a long time. Your room looks extremely simple, just a bed and a table, but every time I come here, I feel refreshed, and each time it feels different. It seems to change every day, but in reality, nothing in your room has moved. The bed and table are in the same places, even the small table for the stove is in the same spot. This has puzzled me for a long time."

Tang Zhen Dong was taken aback. Zhao Lili was indeed observant. The Seven Star Array he had set up, his master had once said, could reach the highest level where each step revealed a different scene. However, his small room was too small, and the materials used for the array limited its full potential. Nevertheless, it could still bring peace and tranquility to those who lived in it.

Today, Zhao Lili could actually see the different scenes created by his Seven Star Array, which surprised Tang Zhen Dong. He himself had never felt this way when he was in the array. Zhao Lili's experience matched what his master had said about the Seven Star Array's ability to change.

In fact, the essence of the array lies in two points: one is to borrow the momentum, and the other is to borrow the energy.

Borrowing the momentum means setting up the array in the right location, incorporating the momentum of the earth, mountains, rivers, and lakes into the array, as if a mountain had been artificially shrunk to form an array.

The momentum is easy to see. The surging rivers and streams are the strongest points of momentum. To incorporate this momentum into the array, one must first find it. Once found, one can then balance yin and yang, guiding the momentum into the array.

Borrowing the energy is a deeper level. Momentum is visible, and seeing it provides an opportunity to borrow it. However, energy is invisible.

Energy is the energy of heaven and earth, which can also be triggered by momentum. Even without momentum, there is still the energy of heaven and earth, though it may be less dense. Borrowing the energy of heaven and earth is not easy, and using it for human benefit is even more difficult. However, using it to change the environment is relatively easier.

The array involves complex calculations. The environment is static and can be changed by human intervention. These calculations have a limit, but once the array is fixed on a person, it not only involves the environment but also the person, increasing the calculation exponentially. Even reaching the mental compass level, as his master had said, might not be enough to fully integrate the environment and the person.

Throughout history, why did feng shui masters use compasses? Because they had not reached the mental compass level and needed the compass to assist in calculations.

Feng shui may seem obscure and difficult to understand, but it can be summarized simply: it is about form and energy.

Form, commonly known as landform, involves observing mountains and water. Energy involves capturing and storing the energy of the wind.

There is a saying that the best feng shui masters observe the stars, the middle-level masters observe the waterways, and the lower-level masters follow the mountains. Mountains are landforms, waterways involve some principles of energy, and the stars go beyond landforms and energy, falling into the realm of astrology.

Actually, Zhao Lili was right. This room did indeed feel slightly different each time, because Tang Zhen Dong's Seven Star Array was already in the realm of energy. Energy, which is the energy of heaven and earth, is introduced to a point, nourishing it. Conversely, it can also bring negative energy to a point.

The energy of heaven and earth changes every moment, and when it is introduced to a point, it naturally creates a myriad of scenes. The time of day and the light change, so the energy naturally changes as well, and what people see and feel naturally differs.

That's the reason.

"My room is that magical? I haven't felt it myself," Tang Zhen Dong indeed hadn't felt the room to be as magical as Zhao Lili described.

In fact, Tang Zhen Dong had a fixed routine: waking up at the same time, buying and selling fruits, and returning home. He was so familiar with his environment that he didn't notice any changes.

"Um," Zhao Lili nodded emphatically, "It's really magical. When I return to my room, I feel chest tightness and shortness of breath, but when I enter your room, I feel refreshed. Can you help me arrange my room?"

Zhao Lili actually had a good impression of Tang Zhen Dong, who had saved her, but Tang Zhen Dong was only thinking of one person and didn't notice her feelings.

"Alright!" After eating her cherries, if he refused her request, it would be unmanly.

Zhao Lili's room had typical girl room features: a large teddy bear, a pink bedspread, a small computer desk with a computer, and a simple zippered wardrobe in the corner, with a long-armed monkey hanging on it, as if standing inside the wardrobe.

For a girl's room, this was relatively tidy, but Tang Zhen Dong's sharp eyes noticed that Zhao Lili had casually taken down two pink panties from a towel rack as she entered.

Although Zhao Lili wasn't particularly beautiful, she was quite pretty. Tang Zhen Dong, who had been in prison for eight years without seeing a woman, couldn't help but let his imagination run wild when he saw the suggestive underwear.

"You shouldn't place the computer desk directly facing the bed. It has radiation, and although it's convenient for you to get to the bed, it's not good to face the door," Tang Zhen Dong moved the computer desk in Zhao Lili's room and rearranged the wardrobe to face inward.

Tang Zhen Dong casually rearranged the items in Zhao Lili's room, making it seem as if the room had gained several square meters.

It was now neat and beautiful.

After finishing, it only took about half an hour. Just as Tang Zhen Dong was about to say goodnight to Zhao Lili and return to his room, he turned and saw the long-armed monkey hanging on the wall.

The long-armed monkey was hanging in the northwest corner of the room, where the wardrobe used to be. At that time, the monkey was standing on the wardrobe, with half its body hidden.

"Lili, is your father a monkey or a rooster?" Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
