Death Sutra - Chapter92

Double Champion!

The person with the highest total score in the Dragon-seizing Contest could be called the champion.

But it was not so simple to be the double champion. Not only did he have to win first place, but he also had to get full scores in both competitions. Only then could he be qualified to be called the double champion.

I'm sure I'll be the champion, but the double champion is a surprise.

The audience below the stage was also shocked. After a moment of silence, they burst into deafening applause.

The people of his branch won the championship, and it was a rare double champion. Chairman Xu's face was no longer cold, but full of smiles. After the audience calmed down a little, he began to explain the three Geomancy Maps of Yang House in today's assessment.

The first one, Cut Feet Water, and the second one, Heaven Fenggou, were not too difficult. There were many Geomancers who got it right, but Chairman Xu still explained it carefully and seriously. The ordinary Geomancers under the stage and the guests who came to watch the competition were all fascinated.

After the explanation of the two pictures, all the contestants cheered up and looked at Chairman Xu with shining eyes, waiting for his explanation of the third picture.

"This Geomancy Map is actually not difficult. I think everyone can see the pattern of Dragging Corpses Mountain, Constricting Neck Road, Recoil Evil, and finally the pattern of wood, earth, and metal restraining each other."

At this point, President Xu paused for a moment and explained the specific details to the guests before continuing, "These are all omens of great misfortune, so it's not difficult to identify them. From the answers we've received, most people's final verdict is that evil spirits in a haunted house will definitely perish if they live in it.

Only Zhou Yi's judgment is that evil spirits in a haunted house will be revived in a desperate situation. "

"Since only Zhou Yi answered correctly in the end, I think everyone can also find something from this answer, right?" Chairman Xu asked the audience with a smile after explaining the general situation.

"Evil spirits in a haunted house will be revived in a desperate situation?"

Many Geomancers under the stage murmured to themselves almost at the same time, and then many people stretched out their hands and pinched their fingers to calculate the eight characters of the house owner with the "Turning Trigram Palm".

It didn't take long for someone to ask doubtfully. "Life is one to two to three, lonely for a hundred years.

It's really a cheap life.

But how can a lowly life be saved in a haunted house? "

After listening to him, I shook my head. He should be a Fengshui master who knew how to read fortunes by bones. However, this kind of fortune-telling technique could only predict one, two, and three lives. It couldn't predict the life of one, three lives that were worth one, three lives.

It was said that the Ming Dynasty Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born a cowherd, had such a lowly life.

Later generations of Fengshui masters liked to give Zhu Yuanzhang a story of his success. They made some far-fetched stories about him discovering beautiful acupoints when he was young. But in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang's life, whether in terms of Fengshui or physiognomy, was extremely cheap. But this extremely cheap fate, coupled with the extremely cheap Fengshui, finally raised a founding emperor.

No one could explain the reason behind this, but it probably had something to do with the phrase "joy comes after extreme sorrow".

The so-called Da Yan number is fifty. Out of forty nine, there is still one that escapes.

The more desperate the situation, the more hope there was.

The topic returned to the Fengshui Map of the Yang House. Although the owner of this house wasn't like Zhu Yuanzhang, who had "one, three lives", it was "one, two lives", which was even more cheap than one, two, three lives.

In the 《Death Scripture》, the judgment of one, two lives was: "A short life is not a great emptiness. Calamities and difficulties abound. Calamities frequently befall you. You will be trapped in a difficult situation. You will never be able to accomplish anything."

The extremely cheap life, coupled with the extremely cheap Fengshui, had turned this haunted house into a auspicious one. This was what I meant by "coming back from a hopeless situation" in my judgment.

The other Fengshui masters were still skeptical. This time, Chairman Xu didn't ask me to explain. Instead, he carefully explained the Fengshui and Fengshui. After listening to him, the audience sank into deep thought.

Chairman Xu didn't give them time to think. After he finished explaining, he immediately announced the top ten names.

According to the rules, the top ten of the Dragon Seizing Tournament would obtain the right to view the True Dragon's Vein. This was the final goal of almost everyone. After the results were announced, some were happy, while others were sad. A few lucky ones were so excited that their faces were flushed, while the others sighed with a face full of melancholy.

After confirming the name list, Chairman Xu invited me onto the stage. With a smile, he gave me the medal for winning first place.

The Metaphysics Association's medal was naturally not the same as an ordinary person's. Although it was called a medal, it was actually a special seal of the champion.

Among the five arts of Daoism, the Mountain Medicine Divination Art was divided into five types: "Human Physiognomy", "Name Physiognomy", "Seal Physiognomy", "Tomb Physiognomy".

There were also five types: "Human Physiognomy", "Name Physiognomy", "Seal Physiognomy", "Mansion Physiognomy", and "Tomb Physiognomy".

The "Physiognomy" referred to the seal.

In ancient times, everyone engraved a seal. Although this custom had declined, there were still people who engraved a "Luck Physiognomy". If the Luck Physiognomy was suitable for carving, it could help one's luck in a certain matter and achieve success.

The Metaphysics Association's Champion's Seal was actually a magic tool, or rather, a pseudo-magic tool, based on the theory of "Seal Physiognomy".

This was because the seal had the power of a magic tool, but it was a consumable item and didn't have a spirit.

Even so, the Champion's Seal was no small matter. When it was used, its power was comparable to a Heavenly Master's attack. Moreover, because it was an attack-type magic tool, it was even more precious. In a crucial moment, it could save a life.

Seeing me accept the Champion's Seal, everyone below the stage was envious. Even Chairman Xu's expression was filled with envy as he repeatedly congratulated me.

Before participating in this competition, Chairman Xu had instructed me to represent the Shenzhen branch to fight for the title of champion. Although I didn't take it to heart at that time, the result was a happy ending for everyone.

Because of this result, Chairman Xu's attitude towards me was obviously much better. He immediately told me that even if the matter regarding the True Dragon Veins didn't succeed, he would make the decision to promote me to the position of the Shenzhen branch's Vice Chairman.

Furthermore, he clearly told me that if I were to encounter any trouble in the future, I could look for him for help.

Chairman Xu knew the reason why I joined the Shenzhen Metaphysics Association. His words were a clear promise that if the people from the Miao Village came looking for me, he would do his best to protect me.

Hearing that, I was elated. After working so hard for so long, I was actually just asking for a protective talisman. Now that Chairman Xu had finally promised me, and I even had the Champion's Seal, no matter what Nan Gong and that old man Zhao saw from me, with the current situation, it would be hard for me to encounter any trouble.

Even when I returned to the Flame God Temple, I didn't encounter any life-threatening danger. This time, I had Vice Chairman Yang Shilong, whose power might have reached the Heavenly Master's realm, accompanying me. It was really hard to imagine what kind of life-threatening danger I would encounter.

At this moment, the gloominess in my heart was completely swept away. After keeping the Champion's Seal, I walked down the platform amidst the cheers of the crowd.

The Dragon Seizing Competition had already ended, but the exchange meeting wasn't over yet. There were still a few more Fengshui activities to be held in the next few days. However, to Fengshui Masters, the following activities weren't very interesting. Apart from the people who were asked by the Metaphysics Association to participate, there weren't many people who were willing to participate.

Naturally, I didn't have the mood to participate in the following activities. Moreover, the reason why Vice Chairman Yang Shilong and the rest stayed in Shenzhen was to wait for me to participate in the Dragon Seizing Competition. Now that the Dragon Seizing Competition had just ended, they were urging me to depart with them.

Before departing, I supplemented the route that I had drawn previously and drew out all the details. However, I didn't mention the abnormalities in the Yellow Springs River and the Ghost Valley. On one hand, the situation in those two places had changed when I returned from the Flame God Temple. On the other hand, those two places were extremely dangerous. Even a person of Chairman Xu's realm wouldn't necessarily be able to walk out of them. If I explained it too clearly, I wouldn't be able to explain how I had entered and exited the previous time.

After everything had been prepared, I set off with Vice Chairman Yang Shilong and the other two directors from the headquarters. We headed towards Shennongjia.

In reality, even if the headquarters hadn't sent anyone, I would have returned to the Flame God Temple sooner or later.

I was the only one who returned from the previous trip, while the fatty's life and death were unknown. I couldn't let it go.
