The person in charge of the reception was Chen Shu, an investigator from the Security Department, but from his expression, it could be seen that he did not have high hopes for the upcoming Jiumen Fengshui Bureau. Chen Shu had originally planned to lead a group to Fengmen Village for investigation today, but Feng Tianming cancelled the plan just before departure and asked him to be in charge of the reception instead.

When the helicopter door slowly opened and Wang Cheng and the other two jumped out of the cabin, Chen Shu couldn't help but frown. Especially since Wang Cheng was wearing a golden robe, like a Taoist priest. If they hadn't been riding a helicopter dedicated to the warning area, Chen Shu would have really suspected that the three had gone to the wrong place.

Looking at the other two people, Wang Siqi and Feng Baobao were both wearing fashionable and casual sportswear, looking young and energetic, but they didn't look like official personnel at all. This puzzled Chen Shu, and the others who accompanied him were also confused.

"Is this the member of the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau?"

"It's not quite what I imagined..."

"Is the man in the middle a Taoist priest? Can Taoist priests join your department now?"

Chen Shu heard the whispers of the others, and he became even more suspicious of Wang Cheng and the other two. At this moment, Wang Cheng and the other two had walked up to Chen Shu and the others and showed their ID cards.

"I am the head of the Mountain and Sea Geology Institute of the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau."

"I am the person in charge of the Yin Yang Feng Shui Department of the Jiumen Feng Shui Bureau."

Wang Siqi and Wang Cheng introduced themselves one after another, but Chen Shu had never heard of the names of these departments. The names of these departments were stranger than the last, leaving Chen Shu at a loss for words.

However, thinking of Feng Tianming's previous instructions to be polite to the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau, Chen Shu could only suppress his emotions, and forced a smile and said, "Three of you, please come this way. Our duty officer has been waiting for a long time..."

Wang Cheng and the other two followed Chen Shu into the Security Department building. However, the investigators in the building all cast doubtful glances at them. This combination was so strange that it always caused some whispers wherever they passed by.

"Isn't that Team Leader Chen? Who are these people behind him?"

"It seems that the duty officer invited foreign aid to handle the Fengmen Village case."

"I heard he was from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau, but I've never heard that you have Taoist priests here."

"The other two look too young. What kind of combination is this?"

Along the way, Chen Shu's ears were almost filled with these discussions. But he found that Wang Cheng and his friends didn't seem to care about it at all. He didn't know whether they were open-minded or had long been accustomed to this kind of scene...

Chen Shu finally led the three people through the long corridor and finally stood in front of Feng Tianming's office. To be honest, Chen Shu had never felt that this corridor was so difficult to walk through. Along the way, he seemed to be a monkey watched by everyone. This feeling was extremely new to him.

As the leader of the first investigation team, he brought three people who looked quite different this time, which attracted the attention of other colleagues and caused them to whisper. Although Chen Shu did not show it on the surface, he did not have much good feelings towards the three people sent by the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau.

He knocked on the door gently, and soon, Feng Tianming's voice came: "Come in."

Chen Shu opened the door and led the three people into the office. Feng Tianming obviously didn't expect that the three people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau were so young and dressed differently. For a moment, he was a little at a loss.

But as the duty officer of the Security Department, Feng Tianming quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile: "We, the Nanhe District Public Security Office, are honored that you three can come to help. Duty Officer Jiang highly recommended you to me. After meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed extraordinary."

I wanted to say a few pleasantries first, but I didn't expect Wang Cheng to get straight to the point: "Captain Feng, we are pressed for time, so let's just talk about the case. Our person in charge is still waiting for our report."

Feng Tianming smiled awkwardly, then looked at Chen Shu and said, "Team Leader Chen, please quickly tell these people about the case."

Chen Shu nodded and began to describe in detail what had happened in the past two days. Feng Tianming sat aside curiously, observing the three people. He still couldn't help but wonder in his heart, was he deceived by Jiang Zitao? These three people didn't look very reliable, especially the girl with messy hair, who looked weird no matter how he looked at her.

While Feng Tianming was thinking, Wang Cheng, who had just heard the details of the case, said thoughtfully, "It seems that this Fengmen Village is indeed strange. The villages seen during the day and at night are actually two completely different villages. I think the reason why the investigators were unconscious is probably because of the heavy invasion of Yin Qi."

Wang Cheng's reasoning made Feng Tianming even more confused. He was already very surprised when he learned that the villages seen by Chen Shu and Du Qiang were different. But these people took it for granted and just analyzed it rationally without any other emotional reaction.

Wang Siqi also nodded and asked Chen Shu, "Team Leader Chen, how much do you know about the previous information about Fengmen Village? Can you pull it out for us to see?"

Chen Shu shook his head helplessly: "It's not that we concealed it on purpose, but we know almost nothing about Fengmen Village. Fengmen Village has been dilapidated for a long time. In everyone's impression, it has been a deserted village from the beginning. It was only five years ago that we established a complete system and a nationwide archive network. So we have no way to find out why Fengmen Village has become what it is now."

This result was beyond the expectations of Wang Siqi and others. For them who were eager to know the truth, this was undoubtedly a disadvantage.

After a moment, Wang Cheng sighed softly: "Forget it, since there is no information, let's check it ourselves. We hope that the Security Department can send a car to take us to Fengmen Village. Instead of wasting time here, we might as well hurry up to investigate on the spot." Feng Tianming naturally would not refuse Wang Cheng's proposal. Although he was suspicious of these three people, he could only try his best. After all, the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau was strongly recommended by the duty officer Jiang Zitao, and there must be a reason for it.

Although Chen Shu was reluctant, he still received Feng Tianming's order to lead them to Fengmen Village. This meant that he would always be with these people, nominally to provide assistance to the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau, but in fact Feng Tianming was worried and planted his own spies around them.

When the three of them temporarily left the office, Chen Shu took the opportunity to say to Feng Tianming, "Officer, these three people really don't seem very reliable. Could it be that we are mistaken? Do they really have an official background?"

Feng Tianming sighed softly: "Chief Jiang said before that the people in the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau have some strange personalities and may seem a bit out of place. I didn't expect that what Chief Jiang said was not an exaggeration. But since they are here and we really don't have a breakthrough, let them intervene in the investigation. It won't do us any harm."

As he spoke, Feng Tianming lowered his voice to remind Chen Shu: "You must stay with them, closely observe their every move, and come back to report to me. After all, the responsibility for this case lies with us, and asking the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau to come is just a helpless move. If nothing can be found in the end, it is acceptable. But if they do something out of the ordinary during this period, we will be in big trouble."

Chen Shu nodded: "Don't worry, Captain, I know what to do."

Not long after, a black car set out from the Security Department. Wang Cheng and the other two were in the car, and Chen Shu personally drove them to Fengmen Village.

Along the way, Chen Shu tried to get information about the Nine Gates Feng Shui Bureau from the three people. However, Wang Cheng and Wang Siqi were very careful, so how could they not notice the temptation in Chen Shu's words? Therefore, their answers were flawless. As for Feng Baobao, she was like a curious tourist, just looking out the window quietly without saying a word.

The car gradually left the city and entered a remote mountainous area. The mountain road became more and more rugged, and the riding experience became worse and worse. After driving along the mountain road for about an hour, Chen Shu finally stopped the car.

He looked out the window and said helplessly, "The car can only go so far. There is no road ahead. We have to walk over this mountain to reach Fengmen Village."

Hearing this, Wang Cheng could not help but frown. Before they set out, they had heard some legends about Fengmen Village, but they did not expect this place to be so remote, as if it was built in the deep mountains and forests, and there was not even a road leading to the outside world. Could it be that the villagers in the past had never left this mountain for generations?
With full of doubts, the three followed Chen Shu into the forest. Soon, Wang Siqi took out his architectural Feng Shui compass, which he often mentioned.

Chen Shu looked at the meridian plate in Wang Siqi's hand and asked in confusion, "Mr. Wang, what are you holding in your hand?"

Without even looking up, Wang Siqi answered directly: "This is a compass. I have to determine our location at all times. Otherwise, it's easy to get lost in this forest because of the methane or the special feng shui pattern."

Chen Shu was full of doubts after hearing what Wang Siqi said. Compasses are rarely seen on the market now. Most of the time, they are used as Feng Shui ornaments and hung at home or in front of shops for good luck. Nowadays, with maps and navigation, who would still use such antiques to determine directions? Besides, Chen Shu had walked back and forth on this road several times, but he had never encountered the situation that Wang Siqi described. Therefore, although Chen Shu did not show anything, he did not really believe what Wang Siqi said.

However, as he walked, Chen Shu suddenly stopped, looked around, and muttered to himself: "Why don't I remember being here before?" The scenery before him was both familiar and unfamiliar. Chen Shu hurriedly took out the map to determine the direction, but found that it was impossible to determine the direction in this vast mountain forest.

Chen Shu looked back at Wang Siqi in surprise. He didn't expect that what he said casually would come true. They really got lost in this mountain forest...

Chen Shu quickly took out the compass he had prepared in advance, but found that the needle seemed to be strongly disturbed and kept spinning. This strange thing had never happened when he brought investigators to Fengmen Village before. Why couldn't he find the way at this time?

Chen Shu was anxious to lead the three people to find the right way, but Wang Siqi stopped and said, "Don't walk around blindly. If you are not sure of the direction, it will be a waste of effort no matter how much you walk. The mountains in this place are complex, and there are many feng shui bureaus. The characteristics of each bureau are different. Some are mutually beneficial, and some are mutually restraining. This is why it is easy to get lost when walking in the mountains. Especially now at four o'clock in the afternoon, it belongs to gold in the five elements. Gold and wood are mutually restraining. It is not surprising that we are trapped here..."

Wang Siqi said it lightly, but Chen Shu was completely confused. There was a sharp contrast between the two.

At this time, Wang Cheng, who had been silent, calculated for a while, raised his hand and pointed in a direction: "Go this way, this is the survival situation."

Chen Shu was even more puzzled. He was the one who had been here several times and was quite experienced. Why was it that Wang Cheng and Wang Siqi were so confident while he was the one who was confused? How could they determine the route without even looking at the map?
Wang Cheng seemed to see Chen Shu's dilemma, and said slowly: "You don't understand Feng Shui, so it's normal to have doubts. But at this time, you should come with us. Otherwise, you can't get out at this conflicting time. The next You hour is still metal, and you will still be trapped here. You will wander around for hours and still not be able to find the direction when it gets dark. In this deep mountain, your science is useless. You should come with us, at least you won't be trapped here."

As they spoke, Wang Cheng and the other two walked in that direction. Chen Shu looked at their backs, and his mind was a little confused. Why are these three young people so confident? What do they mean by what they are talking about? Feng Shui...

Chen Shu was full of doubts, but he decided to follow the three people. However, along the way, he kept observing the surroundings and even marked the trees, fearing that they would lead him astray.

However, this doubt did not last long, because as he walked, Chen Shu found that the surroundings were becoming more and more familiar. This was actually the road to Fengmen Village, but he just took a wrong turn. If he did not follow them and continued walking in the direction just now, he would only get further and further away.

Chen Shu was surprised, but Wang Cheng and his companions seemed calm. This is the importance of luck. If the sky is not in season, the sun and moon will not shine; if the earth is not in season, the grass and trees will not grow; if people are not in season, good luck will not come. Even the heaven and earth cannot escape the changes of luck, let alone people. To do anything, you need a hint of luck. Just like walking on a familiar road at the wrong time, you will eventually be unable to escape the fate of conflict and get lost.

However, Wang Cheng and his friends did not explain this. In their opinion, explaining this to Chen Shu might be like talking to a cow. After walking around in the forest for a while, the view suddenly became clear. In the distance, a village could be vaguely seen.

At this moment, footsteps were heard from the other side of the forest. Then, everyone heard a voice full of surprise: "It's your first time here, and you actually found the direction. It's incredible."

Chen Shu felt that the voice sounded familiar. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a group of people in the woods not far away. They were all wearing white scientific research suits and carrying several boxes. The person who spoke just now was Du Qiang, the captain of the investigation team who led the way...

At this moment, Du Qiang obviously did not expect to run into Chen Shu here, and his eyes widened: "Team Leader Chen, why are you here too?" (End of this chapter)
