Chapter 333: Chapter 333 Disobedience_1
The two elders found themselves so troubled that they were beyond words.
Yet, Ye Fei’s face was the picture of calmness.
"You want me to point out where you went wrong, right?"
"Yeah! Come on, spit it out, let’s see what you’ve got!"
"Alright."
Ye Fei, with his hands behind his back, said, "You just mentioned that this is an Eight Directions Heaven-Connecting layout, and you’re not wrong. But you only saw one aspect, failing to notice the second and the third."
Master Yi sneered disdainfully, completely disregarding Ye Fei.
The two junior disciples also showed mocking expressions.
Zhu Guangbo, Bai Yunfei, and the others present couldn’t help but think Ye Fei was probably going to take a fall today.
Ye Fei continued, "Everyone, please look at the distant south. A waterway blocks the road, and in the east, there is also a high bridge obstructing it."
"A waterway and a high bridge, this is called breaking the dragon’s head. Both east and south directions belong to yang. In other words, the yang paths are completely blocked."
"Moreover, this so-called Heaven-Connecting place, ever since I reached the top, I found that yin energy accumulated here, lingering without dispersing. This indicates that this place is extremely yin-charged."
"If I’m not wrong, before this commercial district was built, this spot must have been a gathering place of yin energy."
As Ye Fei spoke, he glanced at Bai Yunfei.
The latter hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, what you said is correct. This place was originally on the outskirts of Tianhe City, a site of execution before the founding of the country."
"Later, as the city expanded, this land was developed into a new district. The previous developer told me that when they were developing this area, they also had many experts perform rituals to calm the yin energy."
Ye Fei’s mouth cornered upward, "Sadly, the ritual back then wasn’t entirely successful and did not completely suppress the yin energy here."
"Additionally, the broken dragon’s head in the east and south, as well as the sunken terrain of the new district, led to the large yin energy stalling, with no outlet. Hence, it created what is known in Feng Shui as a ’Dead Spot’."
When the words "Dead Spot" were spoken, the faces of Zhu Guangbo and Bai Yunfei darkened.
After all, over a hundred billion had been invested.
And in the end, was it seriously just a dead spot?
Could it really be that sinister?
"Heh, that’s simply alarmist talk!"
Master Yi laughed scornfully.
"What is breaking the dragon’s head? Do you understand? Valleys lying across count as breaks, rivers blocking count as breaks, boundaries between two regions count as breaks. How can a mere man-made waterway and an overpass qualify as breaks?"
"To think you’re prattling so much when you’ve just learned the mere basics, this is utterly laughable."
"Furthermore, about this ’Dead Spot’ you mentioned, have you not heard of the principle ’from dead ground, spring life’? Often the more a place is a dead spot, the more it attracts wealth and prosperous energy. What’s so bad about that! Soon, this old man will just draw a talisman to suppress this yin energy, and all will be settled."
Ye Fei smiled dispassionately, "Whether I only know a bit of the basics, or you are clinging stubbornly to old conventions and clinging to outdated texts remains to be seen. Haven’t you heard about the recent car accident and the strange occurrences involving these two gentlemen?"
Master Yi looked up, "Of course I know! These are due to the strong yin energy, but all it takes is following my method to resolve these issues."
"Really? I’m afraid you are oversimplifying the problem of yin energy long accumulating into a dead spot."
"Fine, fine, fine! I won’t argue with you. You think you’re so great, so formidable, don’t you? Well, good, let’s have a contest then and see who can break this situation today, shall we?"
"There’s no need to compete; it isn’t necessary."
Ye Fei didn’t want to get into a serious contest with a narrow-minded stubborn old man.
It wasn’t worth it.
"What’s the matter, scared to lose? If you’re scared to lose, then just shut up and stop spouting nonsense!"
"Exactly, all that posturing, and in the end, you’re just afraid of my master, aren’t you?"
The two junior disciples said sneeringly.
Ye Fei curled his lip, no longer speaking.
He knew well that this kind of stubborn old-timer wouldn’t shed a tear without seeing a coffin.
It was better to let him make a fuss first; it was not too late to intervene when he could not manage anymore.
Seeing Ye Fei fall silent, Master Yi truly thought he had been intimidated, so everything continued as originally planned.
Zhu Guangbo and Bai Yunfei were also quite happy about this.
On the one hand, someone was dispatched to bury charms in the paper.
On the rooftop, Master Yi’s two disciples set up an altar.
Then they lit a sky lantern.
As the sky lantern burned and rose, it floated above the altar, drifting sideways.
In Feng Shui, this lantern has a special name when used to break a pattern: a Heavenly Lantern.
The Heavenly Lantern is a gauge to test whether the Feng Shui layout is broken or not.
If the Feng Shui layout breaks, the Heavenly Lantern will fly smoothly high into the sky.
If it doesn’t, the lantern will go out.
Once the disciples released the Heavenly Lantern, they couldn’t stop complaining, "Master, it’s been so many years since we’ve used this. With your skills, your actions are sure to succeed. Isn’t this just an unnecessary step?"
Master Yi cast a sideways glance in Ye Fei’s direction and said with a touch of sarcasm, "Didn’t someone accuse us of deceiving people? This time let’s show him whether it’s us who deceive, or if some people are pretending to be more than they are!"
Not long after, news came from the other side that all the charms had been buried.
Master Yi nodded and then stood behind the altar, holding a turtle shell, mumbling nonstop.
After mumbling for a while, he suddenly slammed the turtle shell onto the table.
Clatter.
The turtle shell formed a strange pattern on the altar.
Seeing this, Master Yi was overjoyed: "Good! The breaking of the formation is successful!"
Saying this, he looked up at the sky lantern above his head.
But strangely, the sky lantern didn’t float away as expected.
Instead, it spun rapidly in the air.
Everyone was puzzled as to what was happening.
Then suddenly, with a bang, the sky lantern exploded in mid-air.
