Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law
Chapter 936 936: Deduction!
Evening, a little past nine o'clock.
It was already very dark.
Jiang Feng and Mu Yanluo arrived at the foot of the mountain in the back.
Looking up, all they could see was impenetrable darkness.
Although the village had streetlights, there were none at this location.
Under the thin moonlight, the mountain hundreds of meters high looked extremely eerie.
"Jiang Feng, you're insisting on coming here... what exactly do you want to do?"
Mu Yanluo still had no clue why Jiang Feng had brought her here. She felt a chill all over her body and couldn't help but hug her arms tightly, asking with unease.
The graveyard in the back mountain was creepy enough even during the day, not to mention now, in the pitch dark.
"Since things have come to this point, I won't hide it from you any longer."
Jiang Feng looked at the mountain and said blandly, "The reason I came here is to see if the Wei Family's ancestral grave is as sinister as I imagine."
"Sinister?"
Mu Yanluo was taken aback upon hearing this: "What's wrong with the Wei Family's ancestral grave?"
"Your parents guessed right. I believe all the misfortune and dissatisfaction in this village are caused by the Wei Family. Wei Yongbo has been away for over ten years and probably learned some disgraceful techniques. When he returned to the village, he feigned righteousness and reform while secretly using despicable means to harm the villagers."
Jiang Feng's expression was emotionless.
"Wha... what do you mean?"
Mu Yanluo was utterly confused.
"You must have observed, right? Everyone in your village, including after you came in, has darkening between their eyebrows; this is what's called having blackened temples. If this can be observed by the naked eye, it's no small matter; there must be an issue."
"Listening to you... it seems like that's true!"
Mu Yanluo recalled for a moment and immediately nodded.
She had noticed the issue before, but thought the tan was from villagers working under the sun, unlike Jiang Feng who observed so meticulously.
"Do... do I also have it on my face?"
She quickly touched her forehead.
"It's gone now."
Jiang Feng said calmly, "And you also saw that Wei Shuaizhong's face showed no signs of darkening at all!"
"This doesn't mean he has nothing to worry about while enjoying a life of luxury here. I suspect his father tampered with the relocation of their ancestral grave, using an array-like method to absorb the village's fortune and feed it back to themselves."
"That's why the Wei Family has been thriving this past year, becoming the richest of the newly rich, while the villagers have been continuously hit with disasters, bad luck, serious illness, and sudden deaths!"
"An array??"
This all sounded like a book from heaven to Mu Yanluo.
Having been a university professor, she had no belief in superstitions, dismissing them as absurd.
She thought Jiang Feng wasn't the type to be swayed by such mystical matters.
"Jiang Feng, it can't be possible, can it... the Wei family is evil, but to say they've mastered such mystical techniques... I just can't accept that, and besides, it doesn't exist!" Mu Yanluo said, perplexed.
"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I've witnessed stranger things."
Jiang Feng remained composed: "Since ancient times, China has had sayings about the hierarchy of fate, fortune, and Feng Shui. If I'm not mistaken, Wei Yongbo used a method from the Feng Shui Sect to achieve all this."
"..." Mu Yanluo was left speechless.
What Jiang Feng was saying was far beyond her knowledge and understanding, making it difficult to accept.
"If you look closely at your village now, you'll see that many houses' layouts are problematic."
Jiang Feng continued, "Wei Yongbo has transformed the village into the shape of an array. Calling it a coincidence would be too outrageous."
"Are you sure?" Mu Yanluo asked, her voice dry.
"I spent my early years in the Capital City."
Jiang Feng answered evasively, seemingly revisiting an old memory, lost in thought.
"Then, due to some special circumstances, I was part of a large family and got to know many top figures at the apex of China's pyramid."
"Among them were, apart from true dignitaries, political giants, business magnates, and those serving the country, all sorts of Feng Shui Masters and Yi Xue Masters known by the public yet not well understood."
"These people were actually kept in circles and formed into associations to serve related leaders, departments, and top officials."
"I didn't believe it myself until a Master who calculated fortunes for leaders visited that family and I stumbled upon it."
"That's when I learned some secrets, and the Master, who liked me, shared many stories, fascinating tales from their field."
Mu Yanluo listened to Jiang Feng's slow narration, not daring to interrupt.
Because she sensed dimly that what Jiang Feng said was true and possibly connected to the mystery surrounding Jiang Feng's origins!
Capital City!
Jiang Feng has connections with the Capital City?!
"One of the Feng Shui incidents the Master shared with me corresponds closely to the current situation."
Jiang Feng's tone began to suggest implications: "There is an array in Feng Shui called the 'Jueyin Formation'."
"It's an extremely insidious array; once set, it can absorb the fortune from graveyards within ten kilometers, allowing a family to prosper for three generations, creating a scenario of 'one family's wealth, a thousand families begging' and 'one family's prosperity, a thousand families annihilated'."
"Graveyard?" Mu Yanluo finally couldn't resist interjecting.
"This is even more mystical to explain; true or false, I can't be certain."
At this point, Jiang Feng delved into those ancient memories, giving Mu Yanluo a brief overview.
The so-called graveyard is where the ancestors' coffins are buried.
In Feng Shui, while homes need to follow Feng Shui principles, graveyards should adhere to it even more.
It can even be said that the Feng Shui of a graveyard is more crucial than that of a house.
When ancestors are buried in prime Feng Shui spots, it significantly benefits the descendants with prosperity and happiness.
Conversely, poor Feng Shui may lead to endless misfortune for descendants, even family breakdowns.
Originally, Long Family Village wasn't exceptionally blessed but had decent Feng Shui. People thrived peacefully.
The villagers' ancestors were buried here, which shouldn't bring extraordinary success to descendants but did provide a simple and happy life.
But if Wei Yongbo learned how to alter Feng Shui and set up a 'Jueyin Formation', he could devour all residents' graveyard fortunes, benefiting himself!
That's why the villagers now all have dark temples, misfortune, and problems one after another.
Meanwhile, the Wei family is on a roll, with booming fortunes, wealth, and charm!
This is the very reason Jiang Feng believes Long Family Village is experiencing strange happenings now, with all signs matching the 'Jueyin Formation' he knows!
