It’s hard to break a phoenix’s destiny

Chapter 704: Everything Has Its Gains and Its Losses

If it weren't for Xu Henian's guidance, people wouldn't have thought the mountain was a hat. Now if you look closely, it actually looks like an official hat.

Ye Xueke was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, muttering to himself: "Is this the official hat of the judge of the underworld?"

Following this line of thought, everyone found that the mountain was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with two peaks facing each other, like a cone. This was very similar to the hat of the judge in the underworld in the opera. Now that the sun was setting and the mountain was full of charred trees, it made people feel even more sad and desolate.

"Look carefully, what does that mountain look like?" Shi Banxian didn't explain what was going on, and just asked them to look at the mountain in the southwest. Feng Tiankui took a closer look and his face changed drastically. He said in amazement: "Hat! The hat of the judge of the underworld!"

The mountain is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with two peaks standing opposite each other like a cone. You don't usually pay attention to it, but if you look closely, you will find that it is very similar to the hat worn by the judge of the underworld in the opera.

After Xu Henian silently chanted the spell, he put down his whisk, turned around and said to him: "This mountain peak looks like a judge's hat, and its shape avoids the sun and seeks the shade. Your house happens to be under its cover, which is equivalent to the place where the judge collects the money for the dead in front of the Senluo Palace. This is called the judge's gathering of wealth in Feng Shui. You built your house on the Yin house and the underworld, which has become a Yin and Yang house for gathering wealth, a place where you can get the wealth of the world. So you will have a lot of money and be unstoppable. But everything has gains and losses. You are a living person living in the Yin house. Even if you collect all the wealth in the world, it's a pity that you don't have the blessing to enjoy it!"

"But, isn't the Yang family here too?" Ye Xueke was unwilling to suffer himself and wanted to drag the Yang family into the water.

Xu Henian narrowed his eyes, looked at him, and asked, "Can you compare with the Yang family?"

Ye Xueke shrank back and whispered, "Then we also share the foundation of a big house."

"The Yang family has the Phoenix Goddess here, so they will naturally protect us." Xu Henian was obviously unhappy, and there was even a fierce light in his eyes. Mao Hongbin on the side was even more unhappy, and said directly: "Boss Ye, this is your problem, what does it have to do with the Yang family? Look, it is your main hall that has the residual blood light, and the shadow of the mountain is only in your yard, not in the Yang family's yard at all."

Ye Xueke didn't dare to speak anymore, but his expression was extremely unhappy.

"That day, I was taking the children of the Yang family to the Yang family courtyard. I noticed that the yin energy outside the wall was too heavy, so I asked the children to bow to the outside of the wall. At that time, I was still wondering why there was such yin energy but no evil energy, and it was full of official aura. So this is it!" Xu Henian and Mao Hongbin said, "I will tell Erlang of the Yang family later to plant some green plants on the courtyard wall. It will be fine."

"Okay." Mao Hongbin responded immediately, "I bought a lot before, and originally wanted to plant it in my yard. I'll have someone move it to Yang's house in a while."

"Well, I'll go over and take a look later." Xu Henian glanced down again. The setting sun had already set, and there was no trace of the "official hat". "This is really strange. The shadow has never been cast on the Yang family. It's still the girl's phoenix destiny. She is really a goddess."

Mao Hongbin nodded immediately.

But Ye Xueke couldn't bear it any longer, he knelt down and kowtowed, "Master Xu, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said that about the Yang family, but please save my family! No matter how much it costs! I can move away."

"Are you willing to leave?" Xu Henian suddenly asked, "You spent a lot of money to buy this, right? You also got a lot of gold here, how can you bear to move away?"

"This..." Ye Xueke hesitated. "If I choose another house, I'm afraid I won't have such a rich situation again." Ye Xueke lowered his head and couldn't see the sneer on Xu Henian's face when he said this. Now, in his heart, people, gods and ghosts are constantly fighting. On the one hand, he is reluctant to give up this wealth, and on the other hand, he feels that his family is restless and it is meaningless to live like this.

After a long while, he said, "Then... could you please give me a solution that will satisfy both of us?"

Xu Henian ignored him and just stared at the sunset in a daze.

The scenery was no longer as strange as before, but rather peaceful and warm. The people from the Ye family had gone out to look for someone, leaving only a few women at home, and they had not lit the candles in the courtyard, so from this angle it looked dark and lifeless. On the other side, the Yang family had already been brightly lit, and there were people walking around with lanterns. There were lanterns floating on the water system leading to the palace, which looked like the river was lit up, and the light was extremely beautiful.

"What day is today?" Mao Hongbin suddenly asked, "Is Yang Ruoxi with those children at the waterside?"

"The winter solstice is approaching. Ruoxi has learned how to make water lanterns and is trying to set them off." When Xu Henian mentioned the Yang family's children, his expression finally softened. "Will the girl come back in a few days?"

"Yes, it should be soon. The letter I received this morning said it will arrive around the winter solstice." Mao Hongbin also nodded, "Wait for her to come back, and then we can drink again."

"The children will be very happy too." Xu Henian's eyes softened a lot.

Ye Xueke took this opportunity to kowtow and said, "Master, please save me."

Mao Hongbin sighed and said to Xu Henian, "Look, this side is good, but this side is bad. Although I don't know much about Feng Shui, it seems that this is not right. If the girl knew about it, she would have to do something about it given her personality."

"Hmm." Xu Henian nodded, counted on his fingers and said, "There is a way, but it is against the will of heaven, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate, and it should be very difficult to do."

"Nothing, nothing. As long as there is a way, it will be fine." Ye Xueke responded immediately, "If Taoist Xu saves my family, I will definitely give him ten thousand taels of gold!"

"Haha, how could I be greedy for your money?" Xu Henian gave him a sidelong glance.

"Yes, yes, I was wrong." Ye Xueke kowtowed again.

At this moment, a cluster of flames suddenly ignited between Xu Henian's fingers, and in an instant, they illuminated the hilltop where they were, brighter than the lanterns and torches in the hands of his followers. At the same time, Xu Henian seemed to have a clone, and suddenly the whole person split into two people, but in an instant, they merged together again.

It only took the blink of an eye, but it left everyone stunned.

The fire in his fingers went out, and everything returned to darkness. People's eyes were not used to such darkness for a while, and they all rubbed their eyes. At this moment, they suddenly heard Xu Henian shouting: "The Ghost Palace is recruiting soldiers! Do you need 5,000 people?"
