69: Chapter 69 Yin House 69: Chapter 69 Yin House “Brother, it’s really hot today.
How much further do we need to go based on the location you divined?”
See that big mulberry tree up ahead?
It’s around that area.”
Indeed, not much of a walk, but for some reason, the closer we get here, the more uneasy I feel.”
“Brother, this is perfectly normal.
Are you worried that you’ve come with high hopes but might end up leaving disappointed?
You really don’t need to worry.
Don’t you trust my abilities?”
As Chen Hai and Li Dajiang walked along, chatting and joking around, it turned out just as Li Dajiang had predicted.
Ever since Chen Hai signed the transfer agreement and became a shareholder in Huangxin Shoes, their relationship had noticeably grown closer.
Without the matter of the shares, Chen Hai would have definitely been more formal and wouldn’t have joked around with him!
The two of them were laughing and talking here, but among the young men pulling the cart behind them, two were already burning with jealousy.
Unintentionally, their glances at Chen Hai carried a clear mix of envy and resentment.
As relatives of Li Dajiang, they were naturally aware that their uncle from Tai Island had offered a reward of five thousand yuan to find the grave.
The saying goes, “The water of the house doesn’t flow into the fields of outsiders.” Such a large sum of money didn’t fall into their hands, but instead, Chen Hai, a stranger, had earned it, which naturally made them uncomfortable!
Moreover, Chen Hai, who was so jovial with their uncle, was still quite young, several years their junior.
What real abilities could such a person have?
In their eyes, Chen Hai must have been bluffing, using some trickery to fool their big uncle from Tai Island.
Otherwise, how could the task of finding a grave ever fall to a small-time con artist like him?
It was only because Li Dajiang was present that they had reservations; otherwise, these two might have already berated Chen Hai directly!
After moving forward for less than ten minutes, when they arrived near the big mulberry tree, they finally stopped.
This place was on the edge of a riverbank.
Standing there and looking around, grave mounds covered with weeds were visible here and there.
“Brother, we’ve arrived at the spot!”
“It’s all up to you now to find my mother’s grave.”
Wiping the sweat beads from his forehead, Li Dajiang took out a pack of cigarettes, offering one to Chen Hai, and then took out a Big Red Flower, handing out cigarettes one by one to the young men behind them.
Using his Divination Skill, Chen Hai could only divine that Li Dajiang’s mother’s grave was within fifty steps from this big mulberry tree.
To truly locate the grave, he still needed to use his Geomancy Inspection Skill.
Geomancy Inspection Skill involves the observation of mountain shapes, terrain, water courses, and matters related to Yin Houses and Yang Mansions, and it also encompasses the exploration of these matters.
“Brother Li, your mother was from Liuyuan County, Xiangnan province, born in 1907, and passed away in 1953, right?”
Before he really began using his Geomancy Inspection Skill, Chen Hai spoke up, turning to Li Dajiang who had just finished handing out cigarettes and had come back to his side, to confirm.
“That’s right!” Li Dajiang nodded affirmatively.
He always remembered his mother’s birthdate, though it was only on his last visit back to Liuyuan County that he found out the date of her death.
He had told Chen Hai this information himself yesterday, so naturally, he wasn’t mistaken.
“Okay, I got it,” Chen Hai nodded.
He then closed his eyes and collected his thoughts.
The fragmented Turtle Shell in his mind had already appeared within his sensing range.
Chen Hai had already employed the Geomancy Inspection Skill, not for the first time.
As he silently recited in his heart the matters he wished to investigate, the lines on the fragmented Turtle Shell that represented Geomancy Inspection Skill quickly dimmed.
Almost simultaneously, the scene in front of Chen Hai began to change.
Clouds of mist, swirling continuously, appeared before his eyes.
This kind of mist was known as the earth’s qi.
The legendary Dragon Seeking and Pointing was the search for the central point of convergence of the earth’s qi, selecting it as a site for tombs.
According to ancient beliefs, after the deceased were buried, their aura would combine with the earth’s qi, eventually forming a life force.
This life force, through certain pathways formed by the interchange of yin and yang, could mysteriously influence the fortunes of living relatives, blessing the descendants with prosperity, health, and longevity.
“This area is not suitable for Building a house, but if used for a Yin House, it seems to barely qualify as a treasure spot!”
After observing the area near the Big mulberry tree for a while, Chen Hai clicked his tongue in wonder and couldn’t help but exclaim.
At this moment, in his eyes, there was not only swirling earth qi but also the warmth of yang qi being emitted.
In some places, yin and yang intertwined, yin within yang, yang within yin, the Yin-Yang Qi intertwined, and the resulting imagery faintly resembled a Tai Chi Diagram.
“Nameless, Yin House established in 1903…”
“Nameless, Yin House established in 1921…”
“Nameless, Yin House established in 1935…”
When Chen Hai’s gaze fell upon the scattered mounds near the Big mulberry tree, simple information about these graves instantly appeared in his mind.
His Geomancy Inspection Skill was ultimately not all-powerful.
For those who had passed away many years ago, no matter how powerful his Geomancy Inspection Skill was, he could only discern the rough timeframe of when their Yin House was established.
As for the specific identities of the owners of the Yin Houses, that was not something he could discover.
Fortunately, the number of Yin Houses in this area was not substantial, less than ten in total.
Standing still, he merely looked around and had already found the target of his trip.
“Nameless, Yin House established in 1953…”
His gaze settled on a small mound by the riverbank, almost flattened from being stepped upon.
In this area near the Big mulberry tree, there was only this one Yin House, established in the time period of 1953.
If nothing else, the person buried under this small mound should be Li Dajiang’s mother.
The location of this small mound was right at a convergence point of the Yin-Yang Qi.
Speaking purely in terms of Feng Shui, this place barely counted as a decent treasure spot.
Perhaps, the reason Li Dajiang’s business was doing well was somewhat related to the favorable burial site of his mother.
“Brother, how’s it going?
Did you find the exact location?”
Seeing that Chen Hai remained silent, Li Dajiang, already anxious at heart, tentatively asked.
“Don’t worry, Brother Li…” He began to speak but only got halfway through when a wave of indescribable weakness surged over him.
He quickly ceased his Geomancy Inspection Skill, but he still looked deathly pale, appearing as if he might collapse at any moment.
PS: The cold is quite severe, I’m dizzy and my eyes are blurry.
I wanted to write another chapter, but I won’t.
That’s it for today, I’m going to sleep!
