Chapter 64 Part 2

Basking in the warm sun, Xi Jia ruefully sighed, Senior Cengxiu said before that this place is some kind of land thats more toward yang affinity?

Ye Jingzhi patiently explained, It is a type of structure in Fengshui. Set towards yang, yang energy converges. In fact, every house will choose a spot with yang affinity, sitting in the north and facing south. This will not only help gather yang energy and drive away evil spirits, its also good for the body and health.

Xi Jia deeply understood, No wonder I feel like the yin energy here seems to be a bit weak. When I jumped into this lake before, I remember that this part of the lake was very cold, and the yin energy was very strong. I read books. Water is yin, and this islands yin energy is so faint. Seems like the Fengshui is quite good.

At first when Xi Jia talked about jumping into the lake in the past, Ye Jingzhis heart ached as he tightly grasped his hand, wanting to comfort him. But once he heard the phrase, yin energy is so faint, he suddenly froze stiffly in his spot.

Xi Jia noticed that Ye Jingzhi was no longer walking, and he looked back at him, Jingzhi?

Ye Jingzhi looked up and said, The yin energy here is very faint?

Xi Jia didnt think too much, Its probably not that faint, its just a bit more faint compared to other places around Jingdu Lake. I have lived around Jingdu Lake for so many years, and the university is also nearby. The yin energy of this lake is pretty strong. Although the lake isnt very large, the yin energy is really strong. If you have a chance to sense it in the lake, you should understand what I mean.

Just as Xi Jia finished speaking, Ye Jingzhi suddenly took his hand and rushed to the edge of the island in a single big stride.

Xi Jia looked at Ye Jingzhi in surprise, only to see him move his finger, and a small stream of clear lake water flew out from the lakes surface and settled into his palm. The ice-cold lake water lay in his warm palm. It barely took a few seconds to feel a chill. It was only the lake water in September, but it was already cold to a bone-seeping chill. Ye Jingzhi carefully looked once more. A trace of imperceptible black yin energy reflected in his eyes.

While taking the speedboat to this island and each time he went to buy groceries by the lake to take back home, Ye Jingzhi never noticed that the yin energy in Jingdu Lake was very strong. Water is Yin, and where theres a lot of water, the yin energy would always be strong. Reasonably, strong yin energy in Jingdu Lake was inevitable. The richness of the yin energy didnt exceed what it should be. Merely, it belonged to the heavier side of the appropriate range.

However

Ye Jingzhi took out his phone and sent a message to Cengxiu-zhenjun.

Xi Jia still didnt understand what he was doing. But, Ye Jingzhi turned his head to look at him and said seriously, With the yin energy of this part of the lake, the islands yin energy shouldnt be like this. Jia Jia, the Fengshui of this island is not bad, but its far from blocking the lakes yin energy. Qin San s.h.i.+ had said that this island is very similar to the Palace of Eternal Life. We all thought he meant that its yin energy was strong. According to common sense, its yin energy should clearly be normal, but its yin energy is actually not strong, but instead, the yin energy is too faint.

Xi Jia somewhat understood Ye Jingzhis meaning. Just that, he still didnt know the critical point within it.

Not long after, Cengxiu-zhenjun hurried over whilst holding his luopan. Ye Jingzhi didnt talk nonsense and directly talked about the strong yin energy of Jingdu Lake and the faint yin energy of this island. Cengxiu-zhenjun was taken aback, and just like Ye Jingzhi, he immediately summoned a handful of the lake water to observe the yin energy in it.

Ultimately, Cengxiu-zhenjuns expression was grave, Not bad, Young Daoist Ye, this islands yin energy shouldnt be this light!

The two Celestial Masters started to investigate Peach Blossom Islands Fengshui layout. They also gave Zhuzhao-zhenren and the others a message so they could immediately come over. That night, Xi Jia and Ziying returned home. Several Celestial Masters of the Xuanxue world surrounded Peach Blossom Island. The government ordered that Peach Blossom needed to be closed for reconstruction; therefore, no tourists were allowed to go to the island in the short term.

Before, this group of Celestial Masters didnt take this matter to heart, because in their hearts, two Bodies of Extreme Yin appearing in S City at the same time might truly be a coincidence. Before the accident happened, who knew if Daddy Ling Xiao was in a good mood and allowed two Bodies of Extreme Yin to be born in S City.

However, at the moment, a definite problem appeared before the Masters.

Why is the yin energy here so weak? Impossible! The lakes yin energy is a bit more strong, but its still within the acceptable range. Why is it precisely this island that has very faint yin energy? This islands affinity is towards yang, the water dragon flows underground, yin and yang are compatible, and the elements are balanced. This is merely an average Fengshui layout, how can it be abnormal?!

This is a provocation to this old mans authority. Just who is this fellow daoist that had arranged this Fengshui layout?

Yeah! Lets get that fellow daoist to come out, we need to teach them a lesson. Just how could an ordinary Fengshui arrangement become like this?

After a long time had pa.s.sed, the government finally found the Celestial Master who helped build Peach Blossom Island several decades ago. Everyone thought it was that senior master, but who wouldve antic.i.p.ated once they took a look at the name.

Cengxiu-zhenjun, Chen Wei? Could it be that this poor daoist is ill-informed and does not know who this fellow daoist is?

Master Buxing, Amitabha, this person is very clearly not amongst our Buddhist path.

The other several Celestial Masters also started to ponder just who this Chen Wei was. After thinking it through, a Celestial Master following behind Zhuzhao-zhenren suddenly exclaimed, Eh, this poor daoists 24th junior martial brother seems to be called this name?

Everyone uniformly looked in his direction.

Only now did Zhuzhao-zhenren recall, Right, this old mans seventh junior brothers eleventh unofficial disciple seems to be called this.

Everyone,

It turned out to be a Celestial Master within the disciples generation? Although everyone thought it was impossible, the Fengshui layout of Peach Blossom Island was truly very ordinary aside from the weird yin energy.

Cengxiu-zhenjun asked, Where is this Fellow Daoist Chen currently at?

How could Zhuzhao-zhenren know something like this? He looked at his disciple, Theyre asking you, where is your Junior Brother Chen?

The disciple answered with a strange expression, Junior Brother Chen pa.s.sed away last year at the age of 82

Everyone,

82 years old! In the Xuanxue world, he definitely didnt count as an elderly person. Unexpectedly pa.s.sing away at age 82, seems like his cultivation wasnt really high

Since the person involved couldnt be found, everyone could only continue thinking.

The next day, Xi Jia went to the island to see Ye Jingzhi. A group of Celestial Masters with white hair and white beards disorderly wandered around the small island, and in contrast, Ye Jingzhi calmly sat in the pavilion. Ye Jingzhi really wasnt good at Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams magic, but he had innate Yin-Yang eyes. He could directly see the yin energy. Moreover, it was very precise; therefore, he couldnt leave.

Xi Jia saw his Master Ye mindlessly sitting at the pavilion all day, only looking at yin energy. Those senior masters really didnt treat Ye Jingzhi as an outsider. If there was a technique, they would find Ye Jingzhi to test it out, and let Ye Jingzhi see if their Fengshui arrangement was the same as the Peach Blossom Island.

Xi Jia had only stayed on the island for three hours, and seven Celestial Masters came to trouble Ye Jingzhi. Only his Ye Jingzhi would never refuse. He would immediately go over to anyone who needed help. After helping, the senior randomly mumbled, So theres actually a problem here too, and turned around to do more experiments without even a thanks. Ye Jingzhi then obediently returned to the pavilion to calmly sit, waiting to help the next master.

Xi Jia who saw this scene,

Not good, sooner or later, he will make his Master Ye not to be so kind, you have to say thank you at least!

Xi Jia brought some fruits. He originally wanted to give them to Ye Jingzhi to eat, but Ye Jingzhi didnt eat. So he sat by himself in the pavilion and nibbled on apples and pears, staring at the group of Celestial Masters who would call out Young Daoist Ye, quickly come here and So its like this.

Xi Jia who was increasingly getting more depressed,

It was the first time Xi Jia felt so petty. Anyways, as long as Ye Jingzhi was involved, he would be petty.

When night fell, Ye Jingzhi came back from Master Buxings side and saw Xi Jia sitting in the pavilion, eating apples alone, and sulking. He didnt understand what Xi Jia was angry about. He just thought that Xi Jia was bored here and didnt want to stay so he said, Jia Jia, I will go back with you tonight.

Xi Jia was stunned, You want to go back? You dont want to stay here for some time? Isnt the cause not found yet?

Ye Jingzhi said, I want to go see that Canglang Pavilion.

Canglang Pavilion?

Ye Jingzhi nodded, Yes. There is a pavilion here, and there is also a pavilion there.

Xi Jia suddenly understood, You think that theres something wrong with that pavilion?!

Ye Jingzhi first shook his head, then nodded, Maybe. Before when Cengxiu-zhenjun and I went there to see, there wasnt any problem. ButI feel that theres something not right. Jia Jia, can you come with me to see it tomorrow?

Xi Jia naturally agreed.

That night, Brother Jia took his familys Master Ye away from Peach Blossom Island and merrily went home. Seeing Ye Jingzhi return, Ziying lightly laughed and said, The islands aura is similar to the Palace of Eternal Life. Xi Jia, I will go to the island tonight and see, before leaving the house.

This was giving Brother Jia opportunities!

However, Brother Jia couldnt grasp this opportunity. He and Ye Jingzhi slept on the same bed, but because they needed to get up early the next day to see Canglang Pavilion, they went to bed early. Before sleeping, Ye Jingzhi lowered his head and kissed his wifes lips once. It was a simple goodnight kiss. Not long after, the two fell asleep.

Master Yes biggest improvement these days was probably being able to kiss without scruple.

As for helping each other, he would still blush and feel embarra.s.sed. However, Master Ye could do something like kissing his wife without a change in appearance and with confidence

This is my wife! Wife allows me to kiss! If I want to kiss, then Ill kiss!

Early the next morning, Xi Jia and Ye Jingzhi left for Canglang Pavilion. They parked their car, walked into the alleys of the ancient district, and bought the tickets to the park. Xi Jia hadnt been here for more than ten years so he was a bit unfamiliar with this place. Ye Jingzhi had just been here, and he took Xi Jia straight to Canglang Pavilion.

Meanwhile, Qishan-daoren rushed back to S City from abroad and arrived at Peach Blossom Island. After he arrived on the island and learned of the anomaly, the corners of his lips twitched in speechlessness, This old man is proficient in arrays, its arrays! This is a type of Fengshui arrangement and Yin-Yang calculation arts. How could this old man know, theres no use in coming. After saying this, he planned on leaving.

Zhuzhao-zhenren deliberately said, Qishan, you old chap, could it be that youre afraid to lose face and cant figure out whats wrong with Peach Blossom Island?

How could Qishan-daoren not know that Zhuzhao-zhenren was provoking him? However, the other hadnt finished talking when he turned around and stroked his beard, This old man would lose face?

Zhuzhao-zhenren chuckled.

Qishan-daoren coldly humphed before stepping forward, Isnt it only just Fengshui and the Eight Trigrams, this old man also learned a little bit when younger. As for this sort of thing, Fellow Daoist Jiu Yijun is the most proficient. In terms of

Gu

poison and Fengshui, their Qianshan Sect is strong. In those days, even Fellow Daoist Lian Chen was very proficient in this line of work.

Hearing this, Zhuzhao-zhenrens face sank, and he quickly look toward Cengxiu-zhenjun who was not far away. Cengxiu-zhenjun didnt express any abnormality, but Zhuzhao-zhenren knew that he had certainly heard what Qishan-daoren had just said.

Lightly sighing, Zhuzhao-zhenren grabbed Qishan-daoren and whispered, Did you forget what happened to Jiu Yijun back then? Why are you mentioning him for?

After being reminded, only now did Qishan-daoren recall, but his face was thick and he refused to change his words, This old man isnt close to Jiu Yijun, and he has been dead for 30 years. Saying it just once isnt even okay? He is just Fellow Daoist Lian Chens senior brother, this old man doesnt care.

Yes, you are not close with him. But, Cengxiu, Yi Lingzi, and him were close friends.

Qishan-daoren knew that he was in the wrong, so he no longer spoke and sincerely helped with the Fengshui arrangement.

D Province, Heibu Village.

The morning sun rose, and the first rays of dawn appeared, pa.s.sing through the vast and dense mountain forests and illuminating the small village deep within the mountains. The ray of light shone into every room in the village, and the friction sounds of bones sounded in between the large mountains. Just a sound would naturally not attract attention, but it was the sound of hundreds and thousands of bones rubbing against each other, as if something was moving stiffly.

Gradually, the sound became softer and softer.

Not long after, a young and elegant silhouette appeared between the mountain paths, advancing up and quickly arriving before Heibu Village. Looking up at the century-old tree at the head of the village, the young man softly sighed and suddenly stepped on the ground.

Weng!

With this step, the final bone creaking sound in the village completely disappeared. A minute later, an elderly old man walked out of the house, stiffly walked to the end of the village, and looked at the young man.

Yang Ze smiled slightly and conducted a Yao traditional greeting, San Gong.

The old mans teeth trembled lightly. He seemed like he wanted to talk, but his bones were not under his control. After a long time, he finally said a word. His voice was flat and rigid without any undulations, as if like a corpse, Youare here

Yang Ze lightly nodded. Following behind San Gong, he entered the village.

The gate inside the village was opened by someone from inside. Each and every villager came out from their houses with odd movements. Every time they took a step, their movements would become a bit smoother. By the time they reached the high platform in between two totem pillars inside the village, they were no different from normal people.

The sun rose, and Yang Ze stood by San Gongs side, next to an erected stone stele. His gaze swept across these villagers bodies slowly, neither sorrowful nor joyful and without much excitement, but also not too much grief.

For a long time, he closed his eyes and sighed once. Once he opened his again, there was no longer any hesitation.

He said with a light smile, Today is the first time Im here to see you guys.

The villagers each raised their heads and looked at the young Celestial Master on the high platform with listless eyes as if they were a group of spiritless

gu

insects. The dense and verdant mountain forest hid Heibu Village in a place that no one knew. The vast mountains silence concealed their lives.

At this moment, Xi Jia and Ye Jingzhi finally reached Canglang Pavilion.
