After being kicked out of the wealthy family, her ancestor shocked the world

After seeing Ji Qingzhi off, I came in and found Xi Luobai was still there, and he showed no intention of leaving.

Si Nan frowned, "Why are you still staying here?"

Xi Luobai explained: "I'm staying here temporarily."

Si Nan's expression faltered, and he kept his distance from him, his eyes alert: "You are not going to put yellow talismans in the room and curse us, are you?"

Listening to outsiders' stereotypes about Feng Shui, Chu Peining was speechless.

People nowadays don’t tell fortunes, is it because they are afraid of this?

Xi Luobai couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, I won't."

To Si Nan, this laughter sounded like the piercing and bewitching laughter of a witch, making him want to escape from this place.

but……

His eyes fell on Chu Peining and he swallowed.

For "Lord of the Abyss", everything is worth it!

Just curse me.

Since A'an let him live here, nothing should go wrong.

Si Nan had an idea and hurried upstairs to the study.

Xi Luobai smiled and shook his head, then glanced sideways and found Chu Peining staring at him with a serious look.

"Did you see anything about Si Nan?"

She naturally noticed his words and actions during the meal.

Si Nan's identity is indeed special. Master Xi Chang must have predicted that he would die if he leaked the secret.

Xi Luobai nodded.

Chu Peining withdrew his gaze, did not ask any further questions, and returned to his room to meditate.

Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

Si Nan walked in with a depressed look on his face, holding a computer tablet in his hand, and complained to Chu Peining.

"Ah Yun is so disloyal. He let the wizard live with us. I asked him if there was any way to prevent and restrain him, but he actually kicked me out."

"That's a wizard. He can bring us disaster with just a flick of his finger!" Si Nan emphasized.

Chu Peining was speechless, and patiently corrected: "Xi Luobai is a Feng Shui master, not a wizard."

Si Nan didn't know what a Feng Shui master was, so he questioned her based on his own understanding: "He can cast spells, make some medicines he hasn't seen before, and draw magic symbols. What's the difference between him and a wizard?"

This statement is actually impossible to refute.

Chu Peining explained to him: "The power of a Feng Shui master is related to heaven... what you call God. It tells people about their future fortune or the special geographical location. This behavior is revealing God's will. If you use it without authorization, you will reduce your own luck and make yourself unlucky. In serious cases, you will shorten your lifespan or even lose your life."

Si Nan was frightened. "Is it so terrible? Then why do they still use it?"

Chu Peining patiently answered: "They have a saying, 'spending money can eliminate disasters'. If you accept the other party's money, you can eliminate the disasters caused by fortune-telling."

Si Nan nodded repeatedly, "I see."

He stepped forward, no longer hesitant, put the things in his hand on the desk, and said seriously: "Student Chu Peining, let's start the individual tutoring."

This was the first time Chu Peining had seen someone so serious.

"Is the painting of 'Lord of the Abyss' important to you?"

"Important?" Si Nan exclaimed, "It is very important! That is a famous painting that has disappeared for hundreds of years. It is an existence that even Bonnard and Buck would be ashamed of. Even though few people have ever seen it, it has been circulated as a legend in the industry for hundreds of years. It was not until a few years ago that it appeared in the public eye and shocked the entire art world."

He became more and more excited as he spoke, and even took out photos from his mobile phone for Chu Peining to appreciate.

"Look, this is The Lord of the Abyss, the only surviving painting by Bonnard and Buck's mentor, Madame Viola."

Bonnard and Buck were both famous painters at the time, with reputations all over the world. Their paintings are still well-known throughout the world after more than two hundred years.

With both apprentices being so outstanding, one can imagine how stunning Ms. Viola's paintings must be.

Si Nan looked at the photos on his phone obsessively.

Chu Pening knows Viola better than anyone else.

After all, this was just one of the aliases she used to travel around the Western world and learn many skills.

But her paintings at that time were all deposited in the Balke family. How could Mo Peiyun have them?

Chu Peining looked over curiously.

On the screen, the man on the throne was wearing a black robe and a hood, his face blurred in the dark environment, and the countless faces that appeared behind him looked like evil spirits from the underworld.

There are eleven pillars in the center of the hall, and if you look closely you can see patterns on them.

Just one glance is like bringing people into that mysterious world.

Chu Peining was stunned.

Didn’t she ask Buck to burn this painting?

Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of the string of comments that followed.

【Lord of the Abyss uses mythology to present desire, decay and death in the form of visual art. It is the only painting of Ms. Viola that remains in the world. The ghosts in the picture show the horror and wailing of the underworld. There are many ghosts but they are not complicated. The chaos shows that the order of society at that time was about to collapse.

The evil ghost behind the God of the Abyss is drawn with heavy strokes, covering His eyes, satirizing the incompetence of the king in society at that time, which put the people in an extremely bad situation.

The eleven pillars in front of the temple remain a mystery. Some believe they are the pillars supporting hell, while others believe they are Ms. Viola's hope for this corrupt society. Neither conjecture is sufficiently proven.

Chu Peining was silent.

She did not name the painting, and after it was completed, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she asked Buck, who was with her at the time, to burn it.

I didn't expect he kept it.

The figure depicted above is not the mythical God of the Abyss, but the ruler of the underworld - the Lord of the Netherworld.

In a sense, it is actually a realistic painting.

For a Feng Shui practitioner, catching ghosts is a normal thing, but the bad thing is that Chu Peining’s professional ability is too strong and he is targeted by people from the underworld.

All ghosts in the world are controlled by the Lord of the Underworld. Chu Peining's existence challenges His authority and he is brought before the people of the underworld for interrogation.

Fortunately, He is generous and does not care about it.

In the past, Chu Peining vowed to capture all the ghosts in the world, but after the authorities talked to her a few times, she gradually restrained herself and just sent all the ghosts she saw to the underworld.

And those eleven pillars really exist in the underworld, scattered across the underworld, symbolizing the eleven guards of the Lord of the Underworld with different attributes.

I didn't expect that it has become an unsolved mystery now.

Chu Peining's forehead twitched violently and he stopped looking.

Si Nan reluctantly put down his phone, looked at her resolutely, and said in a deep voice: "Student Chu Peining, you must study hard and get into the top ten in your grade. You must not disappoint your brother and teacher. Do you understand?"

Chu Peining coldly exposed: "It is you who wants that painting, right?"

Otherwise, how could he agree to such an impossible task.

"Since you know how important that painting is to me, you must work hard!" Si Nan persuaded earnestly, "I know your grades are not good, but there is less than a month left before the final exam. During this time, we must work harder!"

He encouraged Chu Peining to study hard, and then changed the subject: "I will try my best to get questions before the exam. Now let's review the basic knowledge first."
