"Nope! He has good thoughts, but because of his growth environment, he believes that in the face of major rights and wrongs, he can still distinguish between the important and the important! ”

"I hope so......"

"Ever since you gave him advice inexplicably, when he saw that I didn't hate him as much as before, he took the books every day, dressed up as a scholar, and called himself 'Xiaosheng' Wang Ning when he met people......" Zhao Huiyi looked at Qiao Youqing resentfully.

"Suggestion? How did I give him advice? ”

"What about last time...... What do you all talk about? ”

"Oh! I understand! I said, the Zhao family is a scholarly family, and they are all scholars, and it is really insulting to look like a scoundrel like you! That's why he wants to be a 'reader', right? ”

"Who's going to play fair with him?"

"Never!"

"Really?"

"Of course, Zhao Huiyi is not a thing, how can she use it as a bet?"

"Not a thing? What is that...... What the? You...... You're not a thing? Zhao Huiyi grabbed Qiao Youqing.

"I mean, Zhao Huiyi is destined to be Qiao Youqing's wife! How could Qiao be willing to do such a ridiculous thing? Qiao Youqing explained seriously.

Zhao Huiyi's face was slightly red with shame, and her little fist gently hammered Qiao Youqing, and said angrily: "It's beautiful to think about, and I don't ask if people will agree!" ”

The two of them only cared about flirting and scolding, and Yuexiu next to them couldn't stand it anymore, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Young Master Qiao, what should I do next?" ”

Qiao Youqing frowned slightly, thought for a while and said: "In this way, we must find a way to spread the news, but in order not to believe it, we must use a more convincing argument, for example, there is a foreign barbarian invasion, and the ancient town will be covered by war!" ”

"Is that okay?" Yuexiu doubts.

"Let's give it a try! This matter is handed over to you, and I will go to the town with the mayor and Mr. Cheng to investigate the situation in a while. ”

Yuexiu asked, "Can I tell Brother Yuan Jie the truth?" ”

Qiao Youqing said: "Trustworthy people, you can say! However, it is better to know a little less! Huiyi, I'll go first, maybe Mr. Cheng will be here a long time ago! ”

Zhao Huiyi was reluctant to give up, pulled Qiao Youqing, and said affectionately: "You must be careful!" ”

Qiao Youqing nodded, and gave her an affectionate gaze before leaving. Yuexiu said worriedly: "Miss, you are like this...... Is it really good? You're going to get married, but you can't step on two boats! ”

Zhao Huiyi was stunned and said, "Dead Moon Show, what are you talking nonsense?" I've never promised to get married, okay? I didn't oppose them because I was sad and didn't have time to fight them......"

Yuexiu muttered, "So now that Gongzi Qiao is here, you have the confidence to start being tough again!" ”

Mr. Cheng's name is Cheng Xuan, the word Qianshan, people who know him call him 'Mr. Cheng' or 'Mr. Qianshan', slightly ventilated water, local funeral rites, incense shrines, etc., most of them are invited to preside over him, and he is also one of the teachers of Zhao's private school.

Recently, he faintly felt that the yin qi in the ancient town was much heavier than usual, but today was a good day for the Zhao family's daughter to leave the pavilion. He thought that after the wedding was over, he would find out where this yin qi came from, and when he cleaned up early in the morning and planned to prepare a gift and rush to the Zhao family, he didn't expect that the descendants of the Zhao family had already come to invite.

When Qiao Youqing entered the house, the mayor had already told Mr. Cheng what Qiao Youqing had said. Mr. Cheng, who was going to ask questions, stopped when he saw someone coming in, and after the two sides were introduced, Mr. Cheng asked, "I don't know where that master came from?" ”

Qiao Youqing replied: "It seems to be in the area of Pingdu Mountain in Xudu City, and I don't know him either!" ”

Mr. Cheng said: "Eighty percent can't be wrong, there are many reclusive masters in that area, without further ado, let's hurry up and check it out and discuss it again!" ”

The mayor, Qiao Youqing, Zhao Xiang, and Mr. Cheng first took a turn around the ancient town, and basically found nothing except for Mr. Cheng's feng shui compass 'not very bright'. It wasn't until they climbed a nearby hill to overlook the ancient town that Mr. Cheng's face became unnatural. I saw him holding the compass, looking at the ancient town and saying, "Strange, why do I suddenly feel that this town has become like a good tomb. Holes ......"

As soon as Mr. Cheng's voice fell, the faces of the mayor and Zhao Xiang suddenly changed, no matter how good the tomb feng shui treasure is, it is also for the dead. Residential feng shui and tomb feng shui are very different. Until the end, due to his limited ability, Mr. Cheng couldn't say why, the only thing that was certain was that there were indeed people who had the means to forcibly change the feng shui pattern of the entire ancient town.

Directly related to the feng shui of the ancient town is the undulating mountains behind them and a river closely connected to the town. If you want the ancient town to be restored to its original state, you can only wait for the 'master'. But they can't wait stupidly, after all, the ancient town is secretly remembered, and Mr. Qiao Youqing and Mr. Cheng will screen the right people to guard the nine important nodes left by the mysterious master.

According to Qiao Youqing and Mr. Cheng's speculation, this may be some kind of feng shui formation, or an important link to hinder the change of feng shui in the ancient town. In addition, the mayor of the town convened the people of the major families in the ancient town to discuss good policies, and everyone had no objection to what Qiao Youqing said at the beginning, spreading the news that 'war is coming'.

Time flies, and a day passes in a blink of an eye, and the 'happy events' of the Zhao family and the Wang family are naturally in vain, which can be described as 'some people are happy and some are worried'. During this period, Yan Yu successfully left the ancient town in the crowd, and Qiao Youqing had been secretly paying attention to her, and personally gave her a ride. In addition to the entanglement and silver tickets, Qiao Youqing also gave her a letter of recommendation, as long as it is his Qiao family's property, Yan Yu can make a living.

Until the next day, the news of 'war is coming' spread to every household, some people panicked, and some people doubted. The first day was a clueless and most of the time was wasted, but once it started, everything was much easier. In addition to the nine town guard nodes, everyone also has to spare manpower to organize an armed defense force.

Each family will send one or two men, depending on the situation of the family, and the water transport dock will still be guarded by the Wanjia Gang, and a certain number of men will be transferred; The elderly, the weak, women, children and the rest of the people who need to be taken care of outside the town are more important, and some people are assigned to protect them.

The plan went well, but there was always some resistance to implementation. For example, some people are reluctant to leave, saying that they are dead and will die at home. Some people scoff, "What does it matter what 'war' they do, who loves to fight and who fights, what does it matter to me?" Some people packed up their belongings early and drove to their relatives.

Everyone had no choice but to continue to act, time was pressing, and when everything was ready, it was not too late to persuade slowly.

The corresponding directions of the five elements of the nail pile are: East A and B wood, take the wooden pile and drive it into the East node; Western Gengxin Jin, take iron nails and drive them into Western nodes; In the south, everyone consulted, transported a pile of wood, and built a fire at the node, and the people guarding the south were responsible for keeping the fire unextinguished; In the northern part of the water, a pit the size of a sea bowl and 33 centimeters deep is dug at the northern node, and the wooden stick is tamped and injected with clean water, and a wooden barrel filled with water is prepared for backup; In the central Wuji soil, take a handful of soil in the east, south, west, north and middle to add cinnabar to reconcile, knead it into a tower shape and place it in the central node.

After all the preparations were completed, there was a delay in the personnel arrangement, and the people guarding the five directions needed the corresponding five elements. Not to mention that few people are willing to do this errand, and even if they do, they may not be able to do it. It wasn't until the third day that all the personnel were settled.

It is Wang Ning of the Wang family who guards the east, Yuan Jie of the Zhao family in the west, a man surnamed Zhou in the town in the south, and Yan Ling of the theater who guards the north, but her current identity is Yan Yu, and the northern node happens to be not very far from the stage; The side is guarding the Zhao family Yuexiu in the northeast, the southeast is the young man of the Yu family, the northwest is a man surnamed Gong, and the southwest is Zhao Huiyi of the Zhao family.

In the end, the most troublesome thing is the central node, Zhao Xiang, Mayor Yu, the head of the Fan family, and the head of the Wan family all expressed their willingness to guard the central node. But their fates were incompatible, Qiao Youqing stood up and said, "Leave the central position to me!" ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all objected, the reason is very simple, Qiao Youqing is not from this town, so there is no need for me to put myself in. What's more, he has done enough, until Mr. Cheng said that he and Qiao Youqing were guarding together, and it was good to have a response, so everyone reluctantly agreed.

That night, Qiao Youqing went to see the ghost lady outside the town again and explained some things. Although the ghost lady knew that he was narrow-minded, she couldn't believe that he actually went to guard the central node by himself, he was an outsider! What's more, there may be more than one bad luck.

Only Qiao Youqing himself knew that if he could, he would rather leave directly with Zhao Huiyi. But he couldn't do it, this was her house, and her family; Although she will marry one day, the meaning is completely different. If she really escaped with him, how would she face her father and fellow villagers in the future?

For Huiyi, for her hometown and relatives, he will go all out. As for the consequences, don't think about it much, even if you die, you have no regrets!

On the fourth day, everyone was in place, and a tense atmosphere enveloped every part of this thousand-year-old town. The sky was full of clouds, and the sound of the wind brought a chill to people's nerves. Outside the ancient town, a few kilometers from the other side of the river, there are many temporary shacks built in the mountain cols, which are the temporary shelters for people to move out.

And in the town, there are still many people who are reluctant to leave. Among the five major families, the head of the Wang family took his wife to his eldest son in Zhili Prefecture in Youyang early. Only Wang Ning, who refused to leave even if he was killed, he was still waiting to marry Zhao Huiyi after this incident!

That night, it was just getting dark, and under the cover of night, a group of people and horses came out of the remote mountain path. Looking from the town into the distance, the candlelight of the Land Temple outside the town kept flickering, and when the team of people and horses all assembled on the Guanma Avenue, the lights of the Land Temple suddenly went out.

At this time, on the high-rise building near the river in the ancient town, a light was also extinguished. This is the signaling method that has been finalized after deliberation.
