Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world

"No way, hasn't that silly kid Yu Feng figured out the problem yet?"

Lin Beichen couldn't help but think this way, and his gaze towards Yu Feng became subtle.

He had previously thought his good friend was quite clever.

But now it seems I overestimated him.

Lin Beichen thought Yu Feng was just confused, but he didn't know that Yu Feng thought that way because he trusted him and regarded him as his good older brother! In Yu Feng's eyes, what his older brother said must be right.

After the two Daoist priests, Qingfeng and Yangliu, left, Yu Feng finally couldn't help but laugh. He laughed heartily and told Lin Beichen his speculation.

"What kind of lousy masters are these? It's hilarious. They couldn't even tell I was going to have a bloody disaster. Brother Lin Beichen, do you think it's still necessary for you to go with them to look at feng shui?"

"If you ask me, they're all show and no substance, trying to steal my skills."

"That's it, all they can do is say nice things, they don't have any real skills."

Yu Feng spoke without any restraint.

Fortunately, the door was already closed, so the others couldn't hear him.

Most importantly, Qingfeng and Yangliu were unaware of this, which relieved Lin Beichen.

He felt ashamed of what Yu Feng had said. He immediately interrupted Yu Feng, who was about to continue, and said earnestly, "They may not be very good at face reading, but their expertise in feng shui and metaphysics is genuine."

He then began a new round of "deception".

At the same time, Lin Beichen also understood a profound truth.

He should try to lie less often, because sometimes one lie requires countless others to cover it up, and that feeling was exhausting. But he didn't want to tell Yu Feng the truth.

If it were before, Lin Beichen wouldn't have cared.

Yu Feng knows, so be it; it won't have a big impact.

But now the situation was different. Facing Yu Feng, who trusted him completely, Lin Beichen felt a strange sense of guilt. He didn't want Yu Feng to know that he had lied to him to avoid Chen Lin's entanglement; it was truly wrong. Lin Beichen had already begun to reflect on his actions.

"I see. Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise, that makes sense."

After listening to Lin Beichen's long explanation, Yu Feng finally understood the reasoning behind it.

It turns out those two Taoist priests weren't good at physiognomy; they were more skilled in feng shui and metaphysics. Judging from their conversation with Brother Lin Beichen earlier, they were indeed quite capable.

"You should be more careful in the future. It's fine if you only tell me what you said earlier, but please don't let anyone else hear it." Lin Beichen was once again somewhat helpless because of Yu Feng's bluntness.

Upon hearing Lin Beichen's warning, Yu Feng nodded in agreement.

“I understand these principles. I only speak so frankly to you. I wouldn’t say such things to others.” Yu Feng is no child who doesn’t understand things.

He knew perfectly well what he should and shouldn't say.

It was only in front of Lin Beichen that he would open his heart without reservation.

He wouldn't act like that in front of other people.

Lin Beichen belatedly realized that there was something wrong with his thinking. Yu Feng was, after all, a professional special forces soldier. How could he not understand these simple principles?

The night passed in the blink of an eye.

Qingfeng and Yangliu arrived at the hospital as promised, and Lin Beichen had just finished his discharge procedures.

Yu Feng originally planned to go home first.

But after learning that Qingfeng, Yangliu and Lin Beichen were going to search for acupuncture points, his curiosity was piqued. He didn't want to miss such an opportunity, so he immediately offered to go with them.

"No problem, let's go together then."

"Taoist priests, is this a convenient time?"

"It's nothing, it's a small matter."

"What's inconvenient about it? We're not doing anything shady."

“That’s right, we’re not swindlers, young man, you don’t need to look at me like that.” Qingfeng and Yangliu both sensed Yu Feng’s suspicion towards them to some extent.

……

Their destination this time was a large mountain called Tiancang Mountain.

Tiancang Mountain is over 3,000 meters above sea level, with steep cliffs, but the environment is very pleasant.

The mountains are dotted with tributaries of the river, and this environment has fostered a large number of creatures living in the mountains.

"A summer festival will soon be held in Tianzhen, at the foot of Tiancang Mountain."

As Qingfeng walked, she opened her phone and told Lin Beichen what she had learned. This was the first time Lin Beichen had heard of this; he had never paid attention to these kinds of online news before.

He nearly lost his life while on a mission in Myanmar.

There's no time to pay attention to the latest online news.

"The environment here is nice, so it's quite normal to hold this kind of event."

Lin Beichen said casually.

He didn't see anything wrong with it.

Yu Feng also opened his phone to check the event information for the summer festival.

"Is this a summer festival? It sounds like a festival in Japan. The costumes for this event look so strange. The more I look at them, the more they resemble Japanese kimonos... Wearing kimonos under the guise of Hanfu, and these activities look so odd."

Yu Feng felt something was wrong the more he looked at it.

He always felt that there was a hint of conspiracy in the atmosphere of the summer festival.

If a kimono event is held openly, he might just grumble a few words at most.

But this deceptive behavior inexplicably fueled his anger. It was outrageous! How could a great nation like China resort to such a path of worshipping foreign things?

Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality?

"That's not right. This is clearly an event held under our name, but it's actually a Japanese event. And judging from the comments online, similar situations happen all over the country."

Yu Feng became increasingly angry as he spoke.

His dissatisfaction was evident in his tone.

Yu Feng's words echoed in his ears, and Lin Beichen also took out his phone to carefully check the contents. He shouldn't have looked; once he did, an inexplicable anger welled up inside him.

He also discovered something unusual about it.

As Yu Feng said, there was a hint of conspiracy in this.

If his guess was correct, there was definitely something wrong. Lin Beichen then opened the map, connected the locations of these events, and came to a conclusion: An Onmyoji in Japan was about to pull off a major operation.

Onmyoji and Feng Shui masters are actually similar professions.

To some extent, the origin of the Yin-Yang Master is the Feng Shui Master of ancient China.

"Did you two call me here just for this matter?"
"If that's the case, you two brothers can just say so directly. I certainly wouldn't hesitate to do it." Lin Beichen then turned his gaze to the Qingfeng and Yangliu brothers. He finally understood the key point: Qingfeng and Yangliu must have come to him about this matter.

However, Qingfeng and Yangliu did not mention this beforehand.

"Yes, that's also because we didn't believe in your abilities, Lin Beichen."

Qingfeng said to Lin Beichen with a slight apology, "Brother Lin Beichen, the fact that you were able to discover the key to this in such a short time is enough to show that you are highly skilled."

"In this way, we can proceed with the next step."

"We don't mean any harm."

“Situations like Qingfeng’s and mine are actually quite common all over the country,” Yang Liu added, stepping forward to explain for Qingfeng. They did this to confirm whether Lin Beichen shared their vision; only after confirming this could their subsequent plans proceed smoothly.

There's an old saying that goes, "Those who have different aspirations cannot be friends, and those who do not share the same path cannot make plans together."

If we are not on the same path, then there is no need to work together on a great cause.

Especially under the current circumstances, they do not intend to let the Onmyoji of Japan know about their plans. What they are really worried about are those Chinese who betray their country, which is why they need to conduct these small tests.

Lin Beichen's identity destined him to never betray China.

But Qingfeng and Yangliu still conducted this test, which was enough to illustrate the seriousness of the situation. Their rigorous attitude also reassured Lin Beichen, making him feel that this was the only way to ensure the plan's effectiveness.

"Originally, Qingfeng and I did not intend to conduct this test ourselves, but we did not want to violate the organization's rules. This time, many senior figures have come out of seclusion to deal with the Onmyoji of the Sakura Kingdom, and we juniors will be responsible for assisting them and following their arrangements."

As Qingfeng spoke, he posed a question to Lin Beichen.

"I heard that your master is a hermit in the mountains. I wonder which sect your master belongs to?"

When asked, they also revealed their lineage of teachers.

According to them, the gentle breeze and willow branches came from the Supreme Limitless Dao.

Lin Beichen didn't really want to answer this question. He had suffered for lying before and didn't want to fabricate lies again, but he couldn't take back what he had already said.

In the end, Lin Beichen could only casually utter the word "yin and yang".

The country of Sakura has a school of Yin and Yang, whose traditions originate from the Yin-Yang philosophy of ancient China.

The "yin and yang" that Lin Beichen spoke of had a different meaning than usual. After listening to Lin Beichen's explanation, Qingfeng and Yangliu fell into deep thought, ultimately attributing it all to the fact that Lin Beichen's master was too mysterious. Of course, they also had some speculations in their minds.

Could Lin Beichen's master be a reclusive master who possesses multiple Taoist traditions?
That's what they were thinking.

Lin Beichen was unaware of this.

He was only concerned with whether he could pass the test. Then they talked about the key to breaking the deadlock: to break the deadlock, the feng shui energy of these places had to be connected.

Next, they also need to change the content of the event organizer.

For example, some activities that appear to be dance performances are actually sacrificial rituals.

Such activities must be explicitly prohibited. Of course, they cannot go too far. First, they must create a conflict, make things uncertain, and keep the Yin-Yang School of the Sakura Kingdom unsure of our stance. Only in this way can they advance their subsequent plans.

"You mean, we're going to use this battle as a pretext to launch a direct counterattack against Japan?"

After listening to Qingfeng and Yangliu's story, Lin Beichen was startled.

He never expected that anyone would have such a bold idea.

However, Qingfeng and Yangliu's subsequent explanation relieved Lin Beichen. He should have realized that those capable of such a large-scale operation must be the truly powerful figures in China who usually keep a low profile. When they do move, it's bound to be earth-shattering.

"Would it be inappropriate for me to listen to all this? Knowing so much, will you silence me?" Yu Feng listened with trepidation, his face contorted in fear. He hadn't expected the people of Japan to be so cunning, and he began to worry about himself.

Knowing so many things I shouldn't know carries risks.

"It's alright. We naturally trust you since you're with young friend Lin Beichen. Besides, we already investigated your identities before the operation. This might be a bit impolite, but it's a necessary procedure," Qingfeng said calmly, revealing that they had investigated Lin Beichen and Yu Feng beforehand. Lin Beichen and Yu Feng didn't seem to care much about this.

They act uprightly and sit honestly, and have nothing to fear from a righteous person.

And such a process is indeed necessary.

Only in this way can we ensure that nothing goes wrong.

The four walked along, discussing how to handle the matter.

Qingfeng and Yangliu came with a mission. Their seniors did have some connections they could use, but they hoped that the younger generation of China could learn from this battle, which is why they gathered all the lesser Taoists in the world.

Lin Beichen certainly has more authority to speak on this matter.

He can at least be considered an official representative.

He then proposed his idea: first, a large number of netizens could be invited online to attack the organizers of these activities that glorify foreign things, and then another group of netizens could be invited to guide the narrative in the opposite direction.

In short, the goal is to create a point of intense conflict.

In this way, the illusion can be created.

As a result, the Japanese will definitely hesitate and be unable to make a decision.

When they become careless and lower their guard, we will reveal our true colors and lay our cards on the table. At that point, there will be no need for pretense, and that will be the crucial moment for a battle of wits from afar.

Lin Beichen's analysis drew nods of agreement from Qingfeng and Yangliu.

Although they didn't understand why Lin Beichen was so confident and sharp-tongued, his analysis was indeed impeccable, coincided with the thoughts of their seniors, and was even more in line with the current situation.

As for why Lin Beichen was able to analyze things so comprehensively, it was mainly due to his profound personal cultivation. Initially, he was unaware of the tricks played by Japan, but after learning about them, he gained the confidence to launch a counterattack against Japan.

There is one point he did not make clear.

He has another plan.

"Once those senior figures start their war with the Onmyoji of Japan, I'll infiltrate Japan and deliver a fatal blow." Lin Beichen had already planned his subsequent actions.

This move will definitely catch you off guard.

However, he will need to take a considerable amount of leave afterward.

Fortunately, he wasn't particularly busy during this period, so taking leave due to injury was understandable. Of course, he would need an assistant.

Traveling to the land of cherry blossoms alone will inevitably bring some inconveniences.

To achieve a surprise attack, swift action is essential.

As for who would accompany him to Japan, he had already decided. Thinking of this, his gaze involuntarily fell on Yu Feng beside him. Yu Feng also felt Lin Beichen's meaningful gaze, and a strange, ominous premonition welled up in his heart. (End of Chapter)
