297. Gui Zhe Yang

"This...," the middle-aged driver was obviously annoyed by the gossip of this village. However, faced with a glare from Director Qian, he dared not lose his temper and just grumbled, "Mr. Qian, you see, how can we get out of here?" Director Qian lightly stroked his chin beard and said, "There's nothing we can do, we can only leave it to fate. Initially, I thought it was just a rumor, but seeing it today, it is indeed well-deserved of its reputation."
"Qian Shibo, it seems that this alleyway was deliberately designed with a chaotic distribution of bagua to confuse us~~~" I raised my question, and Director Qian let out a deep sigh, "Perhaps, well then, let's continue walking~~" Upon hearing these words, a sudden idea struck me, and I took out the 'plate' and began to inquire, "Lanlan, you are from this village, right? You should be familiar with it, theoretically,"
"Well, tell me about the surrounding geographical environment~~~" Lanlan's voice came from inside. I looked around and said, "Oh, there's a wall here, and inside it is a luxurious decoration that looks like a church. There is also a place that is a bungalow, forming a sharp contrast with the luxurious church."
"That should be the Church of St. Vith, it's the most unique one there~~~"
"So how do we get to your house?" I asked,
"You turn right at the intersection ahead, then go straight until the second intersection and turn right again......, let's stop here for now, let me know the geographical location when you get there, okay?"
"Okay, sure!" I nodded and looked at the driver, "Sir, please make a right turn at the next intersection and continue straight until the second intersection, then make another right turn..........." The driver nodded quickly upon hearing my words, "Alright then~~" as if he had received a royal decree.
But I can also see it clearly. Just a little bit to the right from here is a small pond. This really made me feel depressed. I picked up the plate and said a bit irritably, "Why are you talking nonsense, girl? Just a little further and it's a pond."
"I didn't make it up. There used to be a three-story building and the power station of our village." An anxious voice came from inside. Hearing no response from me, she impatiently exclaimed, "Let me out, I want to see what's going on." Lanlan's character is really strong-willed. Well, let's just leave it at that.
"Okay, I believe you now," I nodded and said, although I had no idea what was happening. Why would such a vibrant place have such eerie incidents? Inspector Qian's face registered a look of shock as he said, "This is not good, it seems that we have encountered a ghost obscuring the sun..."
"It's impossible that there are ghosts here, as the positive energy is so strong," I expressed my doubts, and Captain Qian, shaking his head slightly, said, "No no~~, although this village has the power to ward off evil spirits, we overlooked one thing. The Bagua Village also has a yin area, which means only half of it drives away evil, while the other half attracts it."
"What? How could I overlook such an important point?" I sighed heavily. However, Director Qian continued, "It seems that we are currently in a realm where ghosts block the sun. I thought those locust trees were made by the ancestors of these villages, but now it seems that someone must be behind all this. Did you notice the distribution of those locust trees?"
"I was shocked by this..." I didn't notice it initially, but now that I think about it, the distribution of these locust trees resembles half of a yin-yang fish. From the shape of the character "huai," it can be seen that locust is a ghostly creature in wood, so it is an extremely yin object."
"Wei Shixiong, are you saying that we are still spinning in the locust tree?" I said lightly, and Director Qian nodded, "En..., now we are caught in this ghost canopy..." But Han Xiaoxiao asked with confusion, "Wei Shixiong, what should we do now? With our skills, we should be able to break free."
I shook my head, "I can do nothing about this Sunshade Ghost. Only the villagers in our own village know how to break it. So those of us from other villages have no idea how to solve it," I felt a bit frustrated. The Sunshade Ghost was something I understood a little, a formation created by some cultivators using the natural Feng Shui. But according to Lanlan's words, she shouldn't have known about this formation before she died,
"Is it true that only the cultivators from our village can break this?'" Lan Lan's voice came from within, and I nodded, "Yes, it is indeed only the people from your village who can break it. And this puzzle should have been set up by the cultivators from your village. However, we still don't know whether that cultivator is an enemy or a friend."
"I know there are some cultivators in our village, one of them is known as Chiyangzi. But I know he wouldn't harm anyone, and he is also highly respected in our village. It seems like he must have his own reasons for doing things." Lanlan continued to say.
"Oh, I should get to know him properly!" Director Qian smiled, but I glanced at him coldly. "Let's go out first," I said. However, Director Qian chuckled, "Why do we need to go out? We can wait for him here. He will come out eventually."
"Oh, are you sure he will really come?" I asked doubtfully. He nodded, "Hehe~~, yes~~, he will definitely come~~" After he finished speaking, he asked the driver to stop the car and we all got out. Once we were out of the car, we sat on the ground. The words of Director Qian were right, if we continue walking now, we will just go around in circles,"
"By the way, Chief Qian, what are you investigating this time?" I asked as I looked at Chief Qian. He smiled slightly and I thought he would say it's a secret, but he actually said, "This time we are investigating a matter related to a dark Christian sect. The sect has now spread all over the country, and we have traced its origin to this place..."
"What, here? This doesn't seem possible," I retorted. This place cannot possibly be a hub for cults, especially since there are priests like Chiyangzi here. But then I heard Lanlan's voice from the tape recorder, "He's telling the truth, it was that cult who kidnapped me."
"That cult seems to be organizing their own activities and could even cause harm to our entire world, so we need to investigate now," Director Qian said to us. But just then, Director Qian became excited and exclaimed, "He's here..." We saw a man in his thirties, dressed in a Taoist robe, holding a peach wood sword. Based on his cultivation, it seemed that he was only slightly more advanced than an ordinary person. He raised his peach wood sword and said, "Trespassing in the Bagua Village, today is your death day!"
