Chapter Seventy-Four: The Ancestral Mansion is in Trouble
"Why?" I stopped and looked back at him.
Lao Xu looked embarrassed: "I don't know the specific reason, but when Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang came before, they were not allowed to go up to the second floor, which is the rule set by the ancestors." ”
I glanced at the dark corridor, ignored Lao Xu's dissuasion, and continued to walk up.
"Mr. Chen!" Lao Xu's frightened dissuasion came from outside the door again: "I really can't go up!" ”
I didn't look back and said, "If I really can't go up, your old man will definitely remind me last night, since he didn't say it, it means that there is no such problem." ”
"But......" Lao Xu was about to say something, but I interrupted.
"Shut up! You're talking too much. After that, I stopped talking to Lao Xu and went straight to the second floor.
If what Lao Xu said is true, I think that the second floor of the Feng Shui Hall should be the place where the luck of the Wang family is stored.
The ancestor of the Wang family may have been worried that future generations would do things that would damage their own luck, so they set this rule that they are not allowed to go up to the second floor.
You may ask, luck is something that can't be seen or touched, it's ethereal, how to store it, and that's true, so luck is generally locked in something, and this thing represents luck.
It's like an ancient emperor, the dignified ninety-five, the king of a country, but the throne may be lost because of the loss of the jade seal, which is very strange, right? Why does a seal made of jade have such great ability?
The reason is because this jade seal locks the luck of the entire dynasty!
I also want to see what kind of thing this represents the luck of the Wang family.
But when I got up to the second floor, I was stopped at the top of the stairs by a door with a large golden lock hanging from it, and on the lock was engraved a series of strange charms that I had never seen before.
I shouted to the first floor: "Old Xu, do you have the key to the second floor?" ”
"Do I still need a key to go to the second floor? I don't know, Mr. Chen! Lao Xu replied.
"Call Wang Guofeng and ask." I said.
After a while, Lao Xu replied: "Mr. Chen, Mr. Wang said that he doesn't know either, and he may have to go back to find it." ”
"So let's do it first." I put away my curiosity and went back to the first floor.
When I came, I had already made a plan, what is Feng Shui Hall, that is to solve problems for people, see the place of Feng Shui, the reason why the Wang Family Feng Shui Hall is abandoned is because no one in the Wang family knows this anymore.
Now, the Feng Shui Hall is in my hands, I have no reason not to use it, anyway, in the next year, I also have to accumulate Yin Virtue, it is better to reopen this Feng Shui Hall, and it is just right to use the Wang family's reputation in the local area to receive customers.
I told Lao Xu about this idea, and after hearing this, Lao Xu frowned.
"But, Mr. Chen, isn't the Feng Shui Hall not allowed outsiders to enter?"
"That was before, the ancestors of the Wang family were worried that the luck in the Feng Shui Hall would be destroyed by outsiders, so they simply forbade anyone to enter, but now that I am here, nothing will happen, and you don't have to be restrained, you can come in with confidence."
Lao Xu glanced at the Feng Shui Hall, hesitated, and still didn't choose to come in.
After that, I wrote a list and handed it to Lao Xu, which included not only the necessary supplies such as incense, candles, paper, money, and compasses, but also the necessary supplies for modern life, such as televisions, computers, and network cables.
Of course, the most crucial of these are two lanterns, one red and one white.
In the industry, this is called a yin-yang lantern, which is used to hang at the door of the feng shui hall, once the red lantern is lit, it means that there is a business of the living, and conversely, when the white lantern is lit, it represents the business of the dead.
At first, I didn't plan to take over the dead business, after all, ghosts are a group of difficult ancestors, and I am a violent temper, and one carelessly shoots them to death, and it has to damage my yin morality, which is thankless.
Mainly because of last night's incident, the master named Sun Zhen who killed me deducted a lot of yin virtue, and Yuzhong had already accumulated a little blood red, and when I got up today, it was all gone, and I had to do it as a last resort.
After taking the list, Lao Xu was almost time to pick up Zhixi from school.
He promised me that by tomorrow night, he would have everything on his list ready.
I nodded and asked him to leave the key to the ancestral house before leaving, and when I asked me what I was going to do, I smiled and said, "I want to go in and visit again." ”
Although Lao Xu was puzzled, he still agreed to my request, left the key, and left by himself.
After Lao Xu left, I closed the door of the Feng Shui Hall, and then entered the ancestral house of the Wang family again.
Just now, when Lao Xu brought me in to visit, I felt strange, the yin qi in the ancestral house is very heavy, and the feng shui pattern of the whole building is a kind of trapped array called Qiankun Zhaoyue.
This kind of trapped formation, for ghosts, is equivalent to a siege, the ghosts outside can't enter, and the ghosts inside can't get out.
But this kind of trap is generally only applicable to the yin house, the yang house pays attention to the openness of the Ming Hall, the Tibetan wind gathers qi, and the gathering is auspicious qi, except for the ghosts, no one will be full of ghosts and yin qi gathered in their own homes.
After a few turns on the first floor, I really couldn't find the source of the yin qi, the key is that this yin qi is too thick, there is it everywhere, and I can't see it with the naked eye alone.
I simply burned the talisman in the middle of the lobby, and as wisps of green smoke rose, they all drifted to a room around the corner on the second floor.
I went up and found the door locked, and through the frosted glass, I could see a few dark shadows walking around the room.
I'm really curious, could it be that the ancestor of the Wang family is still doing the business of raising ghosts?
So, I kicked open the wooden door without permission.
I walked in and found that there were several talismans pasted on the inside of the door, and I took off one of them and looked at the charms on it, which were used by sleepy ghosts.
"Are you trapped in this house by the ancestors of the Wang family?" I shouted into the room, but no one answered.
So, I walked to the corner where one of the black shadows was hiding, the black shadow squatted on the ground, covering himself with a bamboo basket, I went directly to lift it, who knows, the bamboo basket was just lifted, and under it, a flash of cold knife light suddenly stabbed at me.
I was taken aback, but my body's instinct allowed me to dodge the knife.
Looking closely, the ghost in front of him turned out to be a mustache with a sword at his waist and wearing a Zhaowu-style military uniform.
Seeing that the knife was not successful, the mustache jumped up from the ground, brandished the long knife again and stabbed at me, and at the same time shouted: "You drip, die, die, die!" ”
