Chapter 137 Koi Village 1
Chapter 137 Koi Village 1
The next day, several disciples of the Tianping Sword Sect went to Koi Village together.
Koi Village is located between rolling green hills. The village is surrounded by lush forests and shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland, with a sense of paradise.
As soon as they approached this place, they felt a sense of relaxation and comfort.
Jiang Chao felt it most obviously. Due to his congenitally weak constitution, his body rarely felt as relaxed as it did now. The illness that had been weighing on him seemed to have been swept away, and his whole mental outlook was refreshed.
Jiang Chao's maternal grandfather was quite knowledgeable about the Five Elements, and he had been influenced by them since he was a child, so he naturally understood a little bit. He observed the Feng Shui of Koi Village briefly and said, "No wonder it's called Koi Village, the place where it is located seems to be auspicious."
Lin Yanqiu never believed in this kind of metaphysics, so he asked, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Chao explained to him: "Jinli Village is surrounded by mountains. The continuous green mountains are like a blue dragon and a white tiger embracing each other, forming a natural protective pattern."
"The mountains in the east are tall and straight, with abundant yang energy, symbolizing growth, while the mountains in the west are gentler, with a balance of yin and yang, implying a sense of gathering."
"The stream at the entrance of the village is like a lively water vein. In the Eight Diagrams, water represents wealth. The gurgling stream symbolizes a continuous flow of wealth."
"The stream water is clear and of high quality. It is a lively stream, which represents wisdom and intelligence in Feng Shui."
"The forests around the village belong to the wood element in the Eight Diagrams. The strong wood energy symbolizes vitality and vigor. The lush forests can produce fire, and this strong wood energy also brings vigorous vitality."
Jiang Chao explained to several people along the way, and they had already entered the Koi Village along the stream.
The stream water is crystal clear and you can see the bottom. Colorful koi fish swim happily among the sparkling waves. From time to time, a few of them jump out and create ripples when they fall back into the water.
The houses in the village are arranged in an orderly manner, most of them are built of stone and wood, the roofs are covered with thick thatch, and faint smoke rises from the chimneys.
There is a huge locust tree in the center. Its crown is very huge, like a giant open umbrella, casting a large shadow. There is a huge stone well under the locust tree, but it seems that it is not used. There is something covering it and it is pressed down with huge stones.
Jiang Chao continued, "The layout of the houses in this Koi Village seems to be in line with the principles of the Eight Diagrams. It must have been pointed out by an expert."
"The old locust tree in the center is the finishing touch, gathering the energy from all directions. The ancient well below is located in the Kun position, which means the earth and nourishes all things..."
Before Jiang Chao finished speaking, he was interrupted by an old voice: "Little brother, you speak very logically, but are you a cultivator?"
Several people were startled and turned to look.
A kind-looking old man holding a child appeared behind them at some point.
He was barefoot, carrying a sack on his shoulder, thin and slightly hunched, but with a kind face, he looked like a simple, ordinary mortal.
Jiang Chao quickly replied: "Yes, old man, we are here to look for friends."
The old man nodded and said, "Our place is hard to find, and few people come here. You are welcome."
He shook his arms and looked down at the child he was holding: "Call for help."
The child was very cute, and when he smiled, he showed a row of teeth with a missing front tooth: "Hello, immortals."
Sun Nongqiao never really liked children, but she felt a little bit of pity for him, so she responded, "Hello, little one."
The old man weighed the bag, adjusted its position, and said apologetically, "I have something else to do, so I won't take you in. Just keep going along this road and you will see the Koi Inn. The foreign immortals all live there. If you are looking for someone, it should be there."
Lin Yanqiu nodded slightly: "Thank you."
The old man nodded slightly and was about to leave with the child, but Jin Cancan stopped him and said, "Old man, what's in your bag?"
Hearing Jin Cancan's question, everyone's eyes were focused on the old man's huge sack.
The dark red liquid soaked the bag and was dripping down. The bottom was covered with a layer of yellowish-white putty similar to grease, making it look extremely dirty.
The child jumped up and down on the spot, saying excitedly, "It's a pig! It's pork! My favorite pork!"
The old man shook his arm helplessly, held him tightly, and comforted him: "Okay, okay, I'll go home later and cook for you..."
The two people walked further and further away, and their voices became increasingly unclear.
Jin Cancan watched the two people leave, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" Lin Yanqiu asked her.
Jin Cancan's eyes fell on Lin Yanqiu. After a pause, she asked, "You can't see it?"
"Hmm? What did you see?" Jiang Chao asked, "Is there any problem between the grandparents and grandchildren?"
Jin Cancan shook her head slightly: "Nothing, let's go."
Although the others were a little surprised, they did not ask any further questions and walked straight to the Koi Inn along the road pointed by the old man.
Jin Cancan followed behind them with a strange smile on her face.
They are not grandparents or grandchildren at all.
Their hands were tightly clasped together, with the skin and flesh tightly adhered to each other, purple-red blood vessels twisting abruptly under the skin, and the knuckles between the gaps between the palms had already fused together, and the skin was wrinkled and uneven, as if it had been melted by high temperature and then solidified again.
One has a face full of wrinkles and gray hair, while the other looks like a naive child. Their movements and expressions are surprisingly consistent. They seem to have independent bodies, but they are actually the same person.
As for the Feng Shui treasure land mentioned by Jiang Chao...
Ah.
As soon as she stepped in here, she realized something was wrong.
There is a huge illusion here, and the spiritual energy here is actually miasma!
Ever since she formed a bond with the Fallen Seed, her sensitivity to miasma and filthy things has become increasingly acute. Even though she has not broken the illusion, she can still see the original layout of this place at a glance.
The seemingly surrounding green mountains are actually evil mountains. In the Bagua, the mountains have lost their correctness. The yang energy of the eastern peaks is covered by turbid air, and the western mountains contain evil energy.
This pattern breaks the balance between yin and yang and creates an evil aura.
The originally lively stream has been infected by miasma. Here, water is no longer a symbol of wealth and wisdom, but a source of disaster.
After the water is polluted, its power to suppress fire increases greatly, so that the vitality that should have existed is severely curbed. The surrounding forests must have become withered trees, and the wood energy has been eroded by the evil energy. It can no longer generate fire, but instead helps the evil and becomes compatible with the evil energy.
The old locust tree in the center is the core where yin and evil gather. The ancient well is in the Kun position, shrouded by the most dense miasma. The nourishing meaning of Kun land is gone, and instead it has become a place where yin energy gathers and evil spirits breed.
