Dai Renlong raised his wrist and looked at the valuable gold watch on his wrist.
Forty minutes have passed since the arrogant fortune teller left the living room.
Of course, Dai Renlong didn't think that the fortune teller would come back so soon. He just looked at the time out of habit.
Dai Renlong is a person who cares about the concept of time. If his subordinates dare to be late in front of him, Dai Renlong will definitely get angry. When he is in a bad mood, he will directly demote the subordinates who dare to be late. must.
Similarly, Dairenlong is very strict with other people's time commitments.
For example, he originally made an appointment to have coffee with his mistress at three o'clock in the afternoon today, but now it seems that he may be late.
Dai Renlong hesitated for a moment and decided to let the mistress wait a little longer.
Mainly, the fortune teller named Shu Xingyun really made him too angry.
Logically speaking, he is a dignified military commander and the undisputed leader of the entire Dahua intelligence system. There is no need to vent his anger on a fortune teller.
But the problem is that he, Dai Renlong, has been investigating the case of the Lotus Sect for more than a year. Due to the pressure from the powerful and wealthy businessmen in Jinling City, he has spent a lot of energy investigating the case of the Lotus Sect, but he has found nothing so far. .
Then today, the fortune teller spoke as if he could easily find the Lotus Sect's stronghold. How could this not make Dai Renlong angry?
Compared to being late for a date with his mistress, Dai Renlong is naturally more concerned about his authority being challenged.
The most important thing is that Dai Renlong doesn't think that the fortune teller can really find the location of the Lotus Sect's stronghold.
Dai Renlong was particularly angry at this bullshit denial of his authority.
So he has to wait here, wait for the fortune teller to come back empty-handed, and then humiliate the fortune teller.
He Dai Renlong has never been a broad-minded person.
Teng Yanping, who was opposite him, seemed a little uneasy. He looked up from time to time at the door of the living room, and then at Dai Renlong's face. The sadness and worry between his eyebrows seemed like a thick ink that could not be dissolved.
"Deputy Director Teng, you don't really think that your niece-in-law will get Ling Qianjin back."
Dai Renlong said this lightly, his tone full of ridicule.
Although Teng Yanping, the deputy director of the Finance Department, has become popular in the official circles of the Republic of China in recent years, his powerful position in the government of the Republic of China is still far from comparable to that of Dai Renlong.
He, Dai Renlong, is Mr. President’s true confidant and a sharp sword in his hand. Even the generals with military power in the army must bow their heads respectfully and call him Brother Dai in front of him, Dai Renlong.
Officials of Teng Yanping's level would not normally be in Dai Renlong's eyes. This time he came to help Teng Yanping find his daughter because Teng Yanping asked for help from the President. He came to deal with this matter at the order of the President. thing.
"...Director Dai, my niece-in-law's fortune-telling is quite accurate..."
Teng Yanping hesitated and said softly.
Dai Renlong burst out laughing, looked at Teng Yanping jokingly and said:
"Deputy Director Teng, you are a scholar who has studied abroad, but you still believe in these superstitious things."
"If everything in this world can be figured out by fortune telling, then what's the use of an intelligence agency like ours? For my position as military commander, I might as well hire a fortune teller to do it..."
Dai Renlong originally laughed louder and louder as he spoke, as if he had heard the funniest thing in the world.
But before he finished speaking, at a certain moment, the laughter stopped abruptly.
Because two people walked in outside the door of the living room.
No, it should be three people to be precise.
The person walking in front was the fortune teller who left forty minutes ago, followed by the man in a windbreaker, and between the arms of the fortune teller, there was another person.
It was a beautiful girl.
Dai Renlong's smile suddenly froze on his face, and his extremely slender eyes widened in disbelief.
what happened?
Was he really rescued?
Could it really be calculated by fortune telling?
As for Teng Yanping, he was so excited that he jumped up from the sofa and ran towards the fortune teller.
"Xiao Guan, you really brought Hui Yi back. Is Hui Yi... injured?"
Teng Yanping rushed to Shu Guan, looked at Teng Huiyi who had her eyes closed tightly in Shu Guan's arms, and asked excitedly and worriedly.
"Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, her aunt Rong Duanshu also came over, crying and hugging Teng Huiyi's head into her arms.
"Uncle, aunt, cousin Hui Yi is fine. She was just given some sleeping pills. I will wake her up later."
Shu Guan did not wake up Teng Huiyi directly in the Lotus Sect stronghold because he felt that it would be best for Teng Huiyi to see her parents when she opened her eyes.
"Let me send cousin Hui Yi to the room first!"
Shu Guan carried Teng Huiyi and walked towards the stairs. When he passed by the sofa, he found the military commander Dai Renlong standing there, looking at him with his mouth open.
Shu Guan smiled at him.
"Director Dai, look, I'm not bragging."
Dai Renlong's expression suddenly became extremely embarrassed, and at the same time he also felt a little embarrassed.
But he couldn't help but ask after all.
"Where did you find her?"
There was still a lot of disbelief in his eyes.
So at this moment, curiosity finally overwhelms face.
Shu Guan gave an address, thought for a moment and then said something.
"Director Dai, if you lead people there now, you should be able to kill all the Lotus Sect in one fell swoop."
Dai Renlong's body suddenly trembled, his eyes flashed with strange light, and he stared closely at Shu Guan's face, as if to confirm the authenticity of Shu Guan's words just now.
But Shu Guan had already carried Teng Huiyi and walked up the stairs.
Behind him, Dai Renlong's expression changed several times, but he finally gritted his teeth, waved to the big men in black behind him, and left in a hurry.
He can still distinguish between merit and face, which is more important.
…
Teng Huiyi finally woke up.
After hugging and crying with her parents, she also told why she was arrested by the Lotus Cult.
Of course, Shu Guan already knew the details of those things in the memory of the Lotus Leader.
It was nothing more than a young girl from a rich family who had no experience in the world. She was deceived by a sophisticated woman into attending two Lotus Cult gatherings. However, in the end, the girl's good upbringing made her extremely disgusted with that place and she witnessed some ugly things. , she told the woman that she would never come again.
It’s just that the girl didn’t realize the sinister nature of people’s hearts. Before she left, she declared that she would tell the patrol bureau everything about this place, so she could never leave again.
This is the rough process.
There are not too many secrets and twists and turns in this matter. Of course, if Shu Guan arrives, this matter will turn into a very tragic thing, at least for Teng Yanping and his wife.
Now that their only daughter has finally been found, the worry, fear and despair that weighed heavily on the couple like a mountain these past two days have finally dissipated.
So during dinner, Teng Yanping, who usually didn't drink much, also drank a lot with Shu Guan, while Teng Huiyi sat aside and poured wine for the two of them obediently. Her eyes would fall on Shu Guan's face from time to time, but Shu Guan It seems that he is unaware of it.
Teng Yanping and his wife warmly invited Shu Guan to stay in Jinling for a few more days and have a good time in Jinling City.
I originally planned to stay in Jinling for a while to avoid the wind and rain in Shencheng, so I naturally agreed happily.
And Teng Huiyi immediately said happily that she would accompany her cousin-in-law to visit the entire Jinling City.
Jinling City was the most famous capital in the history of the Great China Dynasty, and during the rebellion of the Divine Monkey Army, it became the only remaining important town in the Great China Dynasty that was in the hands of the dynasty army. It was chased by the Divine Monkey rebels all the way. It was in Jinling City that Gengshi Emperor finally established a firm foothold, and then based on this city, he launched a counterattack against the Shenhou rebels, and finally put down the Shenhou rebellion and regained the Great China.
After the Shenhou Rebellion was put down, Emperor Gengshi felt that the city's luck and his own destiny were complementary to each other, so he stayed in Jinling and made Jinling his capital. After learning of his death, the Great China Dynasty moved the capital back to Jinling. Yanjing.
Now in the Republic of China, Jinling City has once again become the capital of Dahua. Its prosperity is not much worse than Shencheng. As for the historical heritage and scenic spots, Shencheng, which has only just emerged less than two hundred years ago, is naturally completely unable to Comparable to Jinling City.
Early the next morning, Shu Guan, Teng Huiyi, and Han Biao each rode a bicycle and set off from the Teng family villa.
Because not far from the Teng family villa, there is one of the most famous scenic spots in Jinling City, Xuanwu Lake.
Xuanwu Lake rests on Zhongshan Mountain in the east and the ancient city wall of Jinling in the west. The lake is in the shape of a rhombus. The three of them rode along the path beside the lake. They saw the rising sun shining on the vast lake, sparkling golden waves, and fish swimming in the lake. It can be seen that groups of egrets fly over the lake from time to time, and the scenery is breathtaking.
After riding along the lake for about half an hour, Shu Guan saw a large open space beside Xuanwu Lake. Many shanties had been built on the open space. The shanties were scattered in a haphazard manner and looked dirty and messy. There were many clothes in the shanty towns. The shabby shantytowns move back and forth.
Jinling is the capital of the Republic of China, and Xuanwu Lake is the most famous scenic spot in Jinling City. Therefore, it is really incredible that there is such a large and dirty shanty town beside Xuanwu Lake.
Seemingly sensing Shu Guan's doubts, Teng Huiyi quickly explained to him:
"Last summer, there was an inexplicable flood in Xuanwu Lake. The lake water submerged the land around the lake shore. Our family was pretty good. It was not close to the lake and the terrain was relatively high. It was not affected by the flood. But the land close to the lake shore was not affected by the flood. Many houses were flooded, and about 50,000 to 60,000 people became homeless."
Shu Guan groaned, remembering that he had seen this news on the way from Jingcheng to Shencheng.
He even knew the real reason why Xuanwu Lake flooded for most of the year.
Shu Guan just didn't expect that after more than half a year, these refugees had not been properly resettled. In this winter, they had to live in shanties that could barely protect them from wind and rain.
Shu Guan asked this question directly.
Teng Huiyi also looked at the dilapidated shanty town in the distance with sympathy and said:
"Those bureaucrats in the Republic of China government have always been procrastinating in doing things. As long as it has nothing to do with their interests, how many people will really care about these ordinary people?"
"Of course the main reason is that the government is too financially strapped now. My dad once told me about this. When the flood first happened, he had already tried his best to move things around, and finally got it together. I paid a sum of money, which was originally intended to be used to help these refugees deal with the aftermath, but unexpectedly the Battle of Shanghai broke out immediately, and the money was used by Mr. President as military expenses."
Shu Guan was silent for a while and sighed softly.
He is already a practitioner of the Nascent Soul Realm. In the world of cultivation, the Nascent Soul Realm is called a powerful person.
But when it comes to changing the world, he doesn't have the ability at all.
As for goals that are too high and out of reach, Shu Guan will not indulge in them.
Then Shu Guan raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
There are mountains in the distance, standing like tigers on the banks of Xuanwu Lake.
That is Zhongshan, also known as Purple Mountain.
"Cousin Huiyi, why don't you go home first? I want to go to the top of Zhongshan Mountain to have a look."
Zhongshan is still a bit far away from here, and it would be difficult for Teng Huiyi to persist in riding there, and Shu Guan didn't think there was a dedicated cycling track on Zhongshan like the scenic spot in his previous life.
So Han Biao accompanied the somewhat disappointed Teng Huiyi back first, while Shu Guan continued towards Zhongshan.
Soon after, he appeared at the highest point of Zhongshan Mountain.
Of course, this bicycle was not the one made by Fourth Senior Brother Qiu Yang, so he could not ride up to the top of the mountain, so he carried the bicycle up.
Shu Guan placed his bicycle in the grass next to him and looked towards the other side of the mountain.
On the other side of Zhongshan is the vast river.
The river surges like a dragon, and Zhongshan towers like a tiger.
This is the situation where the dragon and the tiger are dominating.
In the Qingnang Sutra of Zoumamen, several places with great feng shui in Dahua are described in detail. These places not only have strong feng shui, but are also the most important places of luck in Dahua.
The turtle and snake in Jingcheng guarding the river is one of them.
The power of dragons and tigers in Jinling is also one of them.
The fact that Emperor Gengshi survived the desperate situation in this city five thousand years ago and finally revived the national destiny of China had a lot to do with the luck protection of Jinling City.
As long as the great luck formation composed of Dahua's nine fortune lands is not destroyed, even if Dahua will fall into a dark and weak moment for a certain period of time, it will eventually be able to turn around and reorganize the world!
Emperor Gengshi five thousand years ago had already proved this with his great achievements.
Just now...
Shu Guan stared at the river at the foot of the mountain and Jinling City on the riverside.
The terrain of dragons and tigers is still there, but unfortunately it is only superficial and has no real power anymore.
The Feng Shui atmosphere around Jinling City is still strong. Unfortunately, these Feng Shui atmosphere are like a mess, with no clear trend at all.
This situation is different from the situation in Rong's Manor.
The Feng Shui of Rong's Manor is also very "chaotic". The trend of Feng Shui will change every once in a while, but no matter how it changes, there is a clear trend after all.
But at this moment, the feng shui of Jinling City has become a mess in Shu Guan's eyes, and it no longer follows the terrain of dragons and tigers.
And the flow of Feng Shui energy away from the earth's veins means that the luck here has been completely destroyed.
Shu Guan knew how the luck here was destroyed.
He had seen records about this incident in Minamoto Sakurako's notebook.
When Yuan Yingzi went to Jingcheng to destroy the turtles and snakes guarding the river in Jingcheng, she was not actually the only candidate sent by the false god of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun to destroy the Great Fortune Formation. There were also two other people, one After going to Shuzhou, one came to Jinling.
Yuan Yingzi, who came to Jingcheng, failed.
But the one who came to Jinling City succeeded.
The scattered Feng Shui energy over Jinling City clearly illustrates this point.
But Shu Guan didn't know who that person was. The identity of this person was not revealed in Yuan Yingzi's notes, but Shu Guan knew that the person should also be a woman, because "she" was used in Yuan Yingzi's notes. Call this woman.
That should be a woman who is more powerful and more terrifying than Minamoto Sakurako.
Because the strength of the Seven Immortals Alliance in Jinling is much stronger than that of Jingcheng. There are three land immortals alone. Under such circumstances, that woman can still destroy the destiny of the dragon and the tiger here. It is enough to show that How powerful that woman is.
The sudden flood in Xuanwu Lake is just a strange phenomenon of heaven and earth when the Feng Shui luck here is destroyed.
Shu Guan stared at the scattered Feng Shui aura over Jinling City and thought of something Ming Jinan had asked him to do before he died.
That is, there is another place of destiny in Dahua that was destroyed by the Kingdom of the Rising Sun earlier.
That place is Mount Taibai. Mount Taibai protects the luck of the three continents outside the Pass. It is precisely because the veins of luck in Mount Taibai were destroyed that the three continents outside the Pass have now fallen into the hands of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun.
Feng shui fortune and national power have always been inseparable.
What Ming Jin'an asked Shu Guan to do was to ask him to one day repair the damaged veins of destiny in Taibai Mountain. As long as the veins of destiny in Taibai Mountain were repaired, the three continents outside the Pass would have a chance to be recaptured by Dahua.
Yes, the destroyed land of luck can still be repaired.
As long as the Feng Shui energy doesn't really dissipate.
But this time cannot be delayed for too long, otherwise when the Feng Shui energy there slowly dissipates, it will be impossible to restore the original destiny veins.
But at this time, Shu was looking at the scattered Feng Shui auras above Jinling City, but he didn't know how to make them return to the earth's veins where dragons and tigers were entrenched, and restore the luck of Jinling City.
There is a way. Since Ming Jinan asked him to handle this matter in the first place, he would naturally not force others into difficulties without any reason.
The method of restoring Feng Shui luck is recorded in the Qing Sang Meridian.
That is the last chapter in the Qing Nang Sutra, and it is also the only chapter that Shu Guanzhi did not understand.
That is not a Taoist technique. If it were a Taoist technique, it would naturally not be difficult for Shu Guan.
That scripture is a set of methods for repairing the veins of Feng Shui and luck. It is a huge and complicated project. Many things described in it are still unclear to Shu Guan.
Perhaps starting from today, I will do my best to study that scripture thoroughly.
Shu Guan was thinking so at this time.
Because he can see the Feng Shui energy in the sky above Jinling City, and he can also feel that these Feng Shui energy is slowly dissipating in the heaven and earth. Although the dissipation speed is extremely slow, there will always be a day when it completely dissipates.
Shu Guan estimated based on the current dissipation speed of these feng shui energy. In about five or six years, most of these feng shui energy will be dissipated. By then, even if the energy veins here are repaired, there will not be enough energy. The energy of Feng Shui has been cultivated, but it still cannot restore the luck of Jinling City.
You have to hurry up.
He can't change the world, but working hard to repair the fate of Jinling City is not an unattainable goal.
Shu Guan stood at the top of Zhongshan Mountain for three hours before picking up his bicycle and going down the mountain.
He had one more thing to do today, and that was to see the source of the pale pink liquid that he had seen in the memory of the Lotus Master.
But when Shu Guan returned to the Teng family villa first, he found several cars outside the Teng family villa, and they seemed to be military vehicles.
Shu Guan walked into the villa gate with some doubts. When he walked into the main building, he suddenly saw the military commander Dai Renlong sitting in the living room.
