Three days ago, in the early morning, Manager Liu came to the hospital in an ambulance and met the man who used to do Feng Shui for his company. This gentleman was hospitalized for appendicitis surgery and the stitches have not yet been removed.
When he learned about the company's affairs, he felt that it would damage his reputation if it was not handled well, so he tried to find a way to remedy it. Although he could not come forward, he invited Gongsun Zhi, who was also a teacher and friend, to help.
Gongsun Zhi was out of town and came to the company the next day. Unpredictably, he pointed out the location of the cracked mask and asked Manager Liu to bring it to him. Then he took out a compass to observe, walked a few directions, and asked Manager Liu to find a screwdriver and hammer. He also mysteriously asked for the place to be cleared and the door to be closed to prevent anyone from peeking.
After clearing the place, Gongsun Zhi went to the center of the room, used a tool to pry open a square tile, and very carefully dug for half a moment with a screwdriver to clear out a square wooden board. There is a square groove at the bottom, filled with brown wood chips, and an amber bead the size of a table tennis ball is buried in it.
This bead is extremely round, hollow inside, about three millimeters in diameter, and contains a deep red liquid. It is really hard to guess how it was created. And if you look closely at this amber bead, you will see that there are words embedded in it. The font is very special, like small seal script mixed with wild cursive, and the strokes are as thin as hair.
These characters are divided into three layers. The outer layer is about two millimeters from the surface. There are twenty-four vertical lines, all in red characters. The first character in each column is connected to the left and right, forming a circular diameter as big as a five-cent coin. The suffixes of the last word are all slightly longer and connected to the bottom center with other suffixes. At first glance, it looks like the texture of a watermelon rind.
The distance between the second layer and the outer layer is about five millimeters, and there are eight rows of red characters, located in all directions. The last words are also long and connected, and there is a gap between the first words. They are connected by a circle of very beautiful patterns, forming a circular shape about the size of a dime.
The distance between the third layer and the second layer is about three millimeters, which is very different from the first two layers. This layer contains white characters, positioned toward the bottom, arranged vertically, and the fonts are very small. The entire row of characters is not as big as the two characters on the second layer. But it’s more like a picture than a word. If you don't look closely, it looks like a squid (cuttlefish), with its head facing to the left, as if it is swimming happily inside the beads. There are two more such "squids", and their positions form an equilateral triangle.
However, it stands to reason that the temperature of amber changes with the outside world, but there is only a layer of ceramic tiles between the bead and the ground, and it is also wrapped in sawdust, but it is as cold as ice.
"Self-defeating." Gongsunzhi sneered as he held the bead, put it into a refined wooden box and stuffed it into his handbag. And he took out a yellow stone bead from the bag, knocked out a crack with a hammer and put it into the groove.
After simply cleaning up, Gongsun Zhi went outside to confirm one thing with Manager Liu - the mask was hung after the decoration was completed and the Feng Shui layout was formed.
As he expected, it was this rear-mounted mask that destroyed the original layout, made good feng shui bad, and almost caused disaster.
Originally, the Feng Shui bureau established within the company was called the "treasure basin" to the outside world and the "hidden gold beads" internally. It is a formation that attracts wealth and good luck, and its attribute is water.
The amber beads hidden in the ground are called empty spirit beads before they are injected with spiritual energy, but they are called spirit-gathering beads. The empty spirit beads are hung at a high place, absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, collecting the spirit of human yang, and gathering it into the essence and blood. Spirituality condenses into spirit-gathering beads.
The crimson liquid sealed in the bead is the blood essence of boys and girls of the twelve zodiac signs. The outer layer of runes makes the bead look like a round bowl, and the eight vertical rows of characters in the middle are eight masculine runes, with each row of runes corresponding to a direction. The pattern connecting the runes is a kind of seal, which is equivalent to putting a lid with a hole on the bowl. The three "squids" are three Yin runes, forming a counterclockwise rotation of Yin energy inside. It also creates a yin and yang attraction effect with the eight runes, forming a clockwise rotating vortex in the hole, which can suck the surrounding spiritual energy into the bead, achieving an absorption effect. In addition, the internal Yin Qi rotation also plays a role in condensation, making the spiritual energy in the beads gather and not disperse.
And its uniqueness doesn't end there. Generally speaking, the principle of artifacts to absorb spiritual energy is to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy to strengthen itself. This will cause the surrounding spiritual energy to decrease, which is commonly known as taking light Feng Shui.
But the Spirit Gathering Bead is different. Its capacity to store spiritual energy will increase to an upper limit every day, and the excess spiritual energy will overflow. The vortex generated by the runes has both a sucking and spitting effect, just like a tornado, and the things caught in it will be thrown out. Furthermore, due to different times, the power of the runes in various directions will be different, so the main directions of inhalation and exhalation will change with time.
At the end of the day, everything is covered. The place where the Spirit Gathering Pearl is is like a raised mountain in a treasure land. Even though the scenery on the top of the mountain is infinitely beautiful, the bottom of the mountain is also wonderful.
In addition, the layout of the company is shaped like a mountain pool in both form and meaning. It is connected from top to bottom, which not only accelerates the formation of Ling Gathering Beads, but also effectively spreads the spiritual energy within the area after the Ling Gathering Beads are formed. Therefore, people here will have more blessings, longer life, less illness and less disasters, and prosperous wealth. It is a perfect situation.
The inventor of the Lingzhu Pearl was Gongsun Zhi. He only taught five people, one of whom was the gentleman who was hospitalized. However, Gongsun Zhi is a bit selfish. Apart from these five people, he doesn't want anyone to know about the Spirit Gathering Pearl. Therefore, the place must be cleared when setting up the beads, so that Manager Liu didn’t even know there were amber beads hidden in the ground, which was somewhat of a patent.
However it also has disadvantages. First of all, it must be set up at a high place, and then when setting up a new formation, the empty spirit beads must be used to slowly develop the spirit gathering beads through the local aura, which will take two years. If you use spirit-gathering beads cultivated elsewhere, it will most likely produce a repulsive effect.
Finally, water must be used to cultivate pearls, but there cannot be real water. Otherwise, excessive Yin Qi will be attracted, which will hinder the formation of Ling Gathering Pearls, and may reverse its properties and form Yin Gathering Pearls that gather Yin Qi.
The mask hanging on the wall is unfortunately made of old elm wood. It is hung in the north where there is no sunlight all day long, so the moisture cannot escape, which is equivalent to opening a water hole. As a result, the negative energy in the formation became stronger, and the undeveloped Spirit-Judging Beads turned into Yin-Juning Beads.
It turns out that Manager Liu once asked his husband if this mask would have any effect on the Feng Shui bureau, but the bad thing was that he said the mask was a gift from a certain boss and was made of peach wood. The husband believed it to be true and didn't even look at it. He instructed Manager Liu to hang it on the north side, but he didn't expect it to be a disaster.
The Ling Gathering Bead turns into the Yin Gathering Bead, which is a very bad thing. This will create "real water" in the bureau and change the Feng Shui bureau, which means a pool filled with water will be formed here.
The Yin-condensing beads exude yin energy in the water, so the water in the pool will naturally not be warm, so people can't stand it when soaking in it. Although the company gets plenty of sunshine, it cannot completely offset it. As time goes by, people with good health will continue to suffer from minor illnesses. If they have a weak destiny, their body and mind will be affected.
The employee who committed suicide was affected to a certain extent. In addition, there were too many unhappy things, and he was depressed and heavy-hearted all day long. The environment was like opening a giant umbrella over his head, so that he could not get any sunlight. Less than a little warm. As time goes by, people become more and more negative, and when they can't think about it...
Not to mention that I don't sympathize with him, he can die anywhere, but not in the company. The most feared thing at this juncture is that this kind of thing will happen.
Most of the people who commit suicide die because their wishes were not fulfilled or because they were resentful. It is more troublesome to be saved than ordinary people, but they die close to the Yin-Juden Pearl. This is great, his soul was sucked in, merged with the essence and blood of twelve boys and girls, and became the host!
This is scary! The principle of Gathering Spirit Beads is simply to consume Yin Qi as a driving force to accumulate Yang Qi. The power cannot be large, otherwise the yang energy will be expelled from the bead before it accumulates in the bead. This is why the three feminine runes are so small.
However, the soul belongs to Yin, and after entering the bead, the center of gathering Qi becomes negative, which undoubtedly strengthens the power. The yang energy became increasingly unable to accumulate, causing the yin energy to become stronger and stronger, causing the soul to grow stronger and stronger, and it didn't take long to almost reach the level of a powerful ghost.
At night, the breathing and vomiting range becomes wider, which can attract nearby wandering ghosts, turning the company into a ghost cave, further increasing the speed of its level up. Most of these little ghosts have to go back before dawn, but there are always one or two who refuse to leave, so the strange things that often happen in the company are their masterpieces.
After a while, the evil ghost inside the bead will be able to upgrade to another level and become a ghost evil spirit. He will no longer be restrained by the Yin Gathering Bead and can go outside and do whatever he wants. If it were smarter and stayed low-key for more than ten years, turning into a ghost or something, then it wouldn't be something that can be dealt with by just anyone.
The night Jiang Jinjiu spent the night at the company happened to be the time when he was about to become evil. It takes two or three hours from the beginning of the transformation to taking shape, which is up to six hours.
During this period, it needs uninterrupted Yin Qi, so the soul cannot leave the bead body - Jiang Jinjiu is lucky. If he had come one day later, he would have become the number one dead soul under Gui Sha's hands.
Although the soul body cannot move, it can increase the rotation speed of the Yin Gathering Bead, and coupled with the effect of the formation, the attraction range becomes very large, making it easy to attract more ghosts in order to obtain more Yin Qi.
There are such coincidences in the world. In the first few seconds, Jiang Jinjiu accidentally lost his luck, and in the next few seconds, the ghosts came and became excited when they smelled the blood. In addition, the Yin Qi here was extremely strong, and everyone seemed to be on stimulants, and they all rushed towards Jiang Jinjiu with the power of the vortex. But what they didn't expect was that Jiang Jinjiu had an amulet on his body. It was obtained by someone with a pious heart and sufficient incense and etiquette. Although he couldn't deal with the evil ghosts, he had no problem dealing with the little ones.
At that time, the ghosts attacked fiercely, just like a big stone with a rope tied to it and smashing the shield. If the stone is not broken, it will definitely bounce back from its own impact.
This was the situation at that time. The ghost hit the wall formed by the amulet and was bounced away. Finally, by coincidence, it cracked the mask on the north wall.
According to Feng Shui instruments, damaged wood is not considered wood. The elm mask lost its function. Even if it blocked the spring, the Feng Shui bureau gradually returned to its original state, and the properties of the uncultivated Yin-condensing beads began to change.
Speaking of which, this is a critical moment. If another fifteen minutes pass, the evil ghost inside the pearl will enter the first stage of becoming evil. Don't underestimate these fifteen minutes. This is a necessary buffer time, which is as urgent as one second. Even if the mask is replaced by a real peach wood product, it will not help.
At that time, the host successfully stayed, the essence and blood became its blood, and the bead body became its body, prompting the Yin Gathering Bead, which took two years to form, to be released ahead of time and irreversible.
However, although the formation was restored and the nature of the bead changed, it was no longer an ordinary imp. The yang energy it attracted could not do anything to it, and could only suppress it at most. In this way, it is like putting a lid on a round bowl, and the bead body becomes its cage.
Jiang Jinjiu accidentally became the key figure in preventing this catastrophe, which was really unfortunate.
The amulet will only take effect when it senses Yin energy or the human body feels an invasion. If he collides head-on with a ghost, the amulet will react immediately. But he had his back to the kiddies at the time and didn't notice it. The impact was so fierce that he was already hit when the amulet sensed and took effect. The protective wall formed by the amulet actively welcomes the opponent. The situation is like someone hitting you with a hammer. If you hit it with the shield in your hand, the shock force on the arm behind the shield will be much stronger than the shock force on the arm if you stand still. He suffered such a powerful shock, and it was God's blessing that he survived.
You must know that ghosts attack living people not on the body, but on the soul. If Jiang Jinjiu didn't have the amulet, his soul would be knocked out of his body.
Even so, the damage caused to the soul by the shock was no less serious than a concussion. In addition, he had been exposed to the wind and cold all night, and his vitality was greatly damaged. It would take at least eight or nine months of training to fully recover.
Regarding the amber bead, Gongsun Zhi said nothing to Manager Liu and secretly took it away. He only said that the company's problems mainly stemmed from the mask. The place he broke was a spring in the office, which can release the yin energy that has gathered in recent days. It will take 49 days before the tiles can be repaired. He also lied that the stone beads were the original ones, but now that they were damaged and useless, they would need to replace them with a pearl inlaid with gold patterns to make up for the situation.
Manager Liu was skeptical of Gongsun Zhi at the time, but on the next day everyone in the company felt something strange, and strange things stopped happening. Manager Liu was determined to stay until after ten o'clock. When the situation was calm, Manager Liu was completely convinced by Gongsun Zhi.
As for why Manager Liu cared so much about Jiang Jinjiu and arranged a ICU for him, it was because Gongsun Zhi said, "The person who destroyed the mask deserves all the credit." How could Manager Liu think that the rupture of the mask was just a coincidence, and concluded that it was Jiang Jinjiu's fault? For his good deeds, he was treated as a benefactor.
After Jiang Jinjiu listened to Manager Liu's narrative with his mouth wide open, he immediately made a decision in his heart to resign.
