Chapter 1226 Zhang Tianshi
Above the Leigong Pavilion, the surging golden airflow represented the fortune of wealth.
However, amidst the golden airflow, there was also a gray airflow representing bad luck.
Chen Xuan frowned, exclaiming in surprise.
Fortune and misfortune were mutually exclusive. Under normal circumstances, where misfortune was strong, one would suffer greatly, and fortune would be weak. Where fortune was strong, misfortune would generally be weak; it was a matter of diminishing returns.
But here, fortune and misfortune were intertwined, giving a sense of mutual reinforcement and growth.
He had never seen such strange luck and was puzzled. What was going on?
The reason Chen Xuan had asked them to stop earlier was that he had discovered that the rolling malevolent energy had abruptly halted here, as if it had vanished into thin air.
At this moment, on the Mingyue River, with Leigong Pavilion as the dividing line, the upstream malevolent energy was pitch black, while the downstream was exceptionally clear, devoid of any malevolent energy.
He then looked at Leigong Pavilion again and found that a massive, resplendent golden toad statue stood on the plaza in front of it. From a feng shui perspective, this should be a Golden Toad Gathering Wealth formation, which was quite normal.
Therefore, Chen Xuan studied Leigong Pavilion further and discovered that there were no issues with its feng shui layout; it was all normal wealth-gathering feng shui arrangements.
However, the only thing that surprised Chen Xuan was that the top of the Leigong Pavilion building, which should have used eight golden toads for gathering wealth, had instead been replaced by five child figures, which was outside the norm.
Yet, he still couldn't figure anything out, only feeling that something was strange.
"Mr. Chen, could it be that the many problems our Huo family has encountered are related to the Lei family?"
Huo Guangtai couldn't help but ask, his gaze chilling slightly.
As a competitor, he wouldn't be surprised if the Huo family was behind it.
"I'm not sure yet," Chen Xuan said lightly.
He had indeed begun to suspect Leigong Pavilion, but there was no conclusive evidence yet.
Huo Guangtai said solemnly, "Have you figured anything out, Mr. Chen?"
"Let's wait a bit longer. I'll study it further."
Chen Xuan shook his head, then changed the subject, saying, "However, although I cannot completely solve Jiang Shang Mingyue's troubles, I can set up a feng shui grand formation to help Jiang Shang Mingyue overcome the difficulties for the time being."
"That would be fine, that would be fine," Huo Guangtai nodded busily.
Given the current situation, Huo Guangtai could no longer bear it. Even a temporary solution to the problem would be acceptable.
"Let's go back to Jiang Shang Mingyue."
Chen Xuan nodded faintly.
The driver started the engine and returned to Jiang Shang Mingyue.
As they got closer to Jiang Shang Mingyue, Chen Xuan could see several trucks parked in front of the building, with many workers busy unloading something from the vehicles. He frowned. wp.kanshu伍.net
Finally arriving at Jiang Shang Mingyue, the car slowly stopped in front of the building.
As Chen Xuan and Huo Guangtai alighted from the car, Huo Du, Huo Guangtai's son, and an old man dressed in a feng shui master's robe holding a compass, walked towards them.
Upon seeing Huo Guangtai, Huo Du immediately said, "Dad, look who I've invited!"
Huo Guangtai turned his gaze to the old man in the feng shui master's robe holding a compass and was immediately stunned, exclaiming in surprise, "Master Zhang, weren't you traveling abroad? What brings you back?"
The old man, Master Zhang, dressed in a feng shui master's robe, said faintly, "Mr. Huo, to tell you the truth, I returned home just after your people left. Upon hearing that your Huo family was in trouble, I quickly contacted your son."
Huo Du also said excitedly, "Dad, our luck is too good; heaven itself is helping me!"
Huo Guangtai felt a surge of joy, but his expression suddenly turned odd, and he couldn't help but cough twice, showing a hint of embarrassment.
Chen Xuan instantly understood what was happening. It turned out that before inviting him, the Huo family had also sought out this Master Zhang, but since Master Zhang was away, they had then contacted him.
"Mr. Huo, you've certainly planned well," Chen Xuan sneered a few times.
Huo Guangtai's face was even more embarrassed, and he couldn't help but blush, apologizing somewhat, "Mr. Chen, hehe... I'm truly sorry..."
"Dad, why did you invite this guy? He's useless! Tell him to leave." Huo Du saw Chen Xuan and frowned.
"Do not be rude!"
Huo Guangtai had witnessed Chen Xuan's abilities earlier and knew that Chen Xuan was a person of true skill.
"Dad, this guy is a swindler? How can you believe him?" Huo Du said anxiously.
"Silence!"
Huo Guangtai rebuked coldly, "Du'er, how can you be so disrespectful to Mr. Chen? Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Chen!"
"Dad..."
"Apologize!"
Huo Du gritted his teeth, turned to look at Chen Xuan, and said with a stiff neck, "I'm sorry..."
Although he apologized, his tone and gaze showed no sign of remorse.
Chen Xuan watched this scene, blinking in surprise. Did Huo Guangtai actually trust him this much?
"Since Mr. Huo is willing to trust this brat, then he doesn't trust me. I, Zhang, shall take my leave!"
The Master Zhang, however, appeared very arrogant and spoke directly.
Huo Du became anxious. He trusted Master Zhang immensely. If it hadn't been for Master Zhang, Jiang Shang Mingyue probably wouldn't have been so prosperous.
"Dad, Master Zhang is leaving."
Huo Guangtai hurriedly said, "Master Zhang, please wait!"
"Hm? Since you trust this beardless youngster, why are you calling me?" Master Zhang sneered.
"Master Zhang, I don't distrust you. I trust you too. It's just that this Mr. Chen is not without virtue or talent. I, Huo, am willing to offer ten million to invite you to stay and work with Mr. Chen!"
Huo Guangtai strode forward to Master Zhang and, after speaking, also looked at Chen Xuan: "Mr. Chen, if the trouble can be resolved, I am also willing to give you ten million!"
Chen Xuan chuckled.
Huo Guangtai was truly cunning. He wanted to keep both Master Zhang and Chen Xuan.
However, it was understandable. After all, Huo Guangtai was in great trouble, and he feared that Master Zhang alone might not be able to resolve the conflict.
Upon hearing that he could receive a ten million reward, Master Zhang's arrogant face visibly softened.
Huo Guangtai, being cunning, naturally sensed Master Zhang's thoughts and smiled, saying, "What do you think, Master Zhang? If Master Zhang can resolve the trouble, all your future meals at Jiang Shang Mingyue will be on my tab."
Master Zhang's tone softened slightly, "Regardless, I was the one who examined the feng shui when Jiang Shang Mingyue was first established. In my eyes, it's like my own child. Seeing it in this state now, I also feel pained."
"I am willing to help the Huo family."
"Then thank you, Master Zhang, thank you for agreeing to stay!"
Huo Guangtai smiled so widely his mouth couldn't close.
Master Zhang, however, suddenly added, "However, in my opinion, I can solve Jiang Shang Mingyue's problems myself and don't need anyone's help."
"This..."
Huo Guangtai frowned. Had they come full circle again?
