Ruins of the past

Yang Ling said: "The person you are talking about should be the Qintian Supervisor officer who led the team this time, named Hou Xianglong."

"This man has made great achievements in Feng Shui, physiognomy, and divination, and he is quite famous in the capital."

"He came here this time, maybe to conduct a secret investigation to see if you are one of the Eighth Generals of Xinghan."

Chu Qiguang's eyes moved when he heard this and asked, "Can this person be bribed?"

Yang Ling shook his head: "I'm not sure. I've only heard of his name in the capital, but I haven't had a close relationship with him."

…

In Wangjiazhuang, Hou Xianglong and his boy were exploring various clues related to Chu Qiguang.

"Chu Qiguang, I know, I know, I used to call him Tuesday Dog..."

"I've seen this child Tuesday Dog since he was a child. He was very clever when he was a child and would help the family..."

"Isn't Ergou a fool before? Once he followed me to the back mountain to cut bamboo, and he couldn't even tell the difference between north and south..."

Listening to the villagers talking, the boy felt dizzy: "This is a mess and contradictory, completely useless, right?"

Hou Xianglong said calmly: "At least I know that there is nothing special about Chu Qiguang since he was a child, which means that my appearance is not wrong."

"This person has not been a genius since he was a child, he is just an ordinary country man."

The young man asked curiously: "But how did he get into the Demon Suppression Division? And still cause such a big drama in Lingzhou?"

Hou Xianglong shook his head and said nothing, but thought to himself: 'To be able to do this... he must have met some noble person... or... a treasure...'

Thinking of this, Hou Xianglong's eyes narrowed slightly and he planned to go to the old house where Chu Qiguang lived since childhood to look for clues.

Hou Xianglong inquired with the villagers and found out that Chu Qiguang's family had moved away a few months ago.

An idle man said: "On the day the Zhou family moved out overnight, I got up and went to the hut. I saw it with my own eyes."

"It was so dark that I didn't even light a lamp. I just saw people coming and going. I don't know why they are so nimble..."

Another woman said: "The mother and son of the Zhou family have never contacted us again. Since they have become successful, they naturally look down on us poor folks."

An old man pointed to the distance and said: "The Zhou family's old house is right there. Their grandfathers have lived in that rammed-earth house. They have been poor for several generations..."

Hou Xianglong followed the instructions of the villagers and found the yard where Zhou's family used to be.

He looked around, calculated the feng shui, and found that this place seemed to be just an ordinary farmyard.

However, there were many people in the village during the day, and their questioning along the way had already attracted attention.

So at night, Hou Xianglong and his boy jumped over and fell into the courtyard.

But the moment he stepped into the small courtyard, a chill suddenly surged in his heart.

After Hou Xianglong has studied Feng Shui fortune-telling for many years, he can not only see the bad and bad changes in fields, houses and landscapes, but also predict the changes in a person's fate. He also has a spiritual sense in his heart naturally.

This kind of spiritual sense cannot be explained, but it always allows him to sense things that ordinary people cannot sense.

The boy beside him didn't feel anything at this moment, but Hou Xianglong felt as if he had entered the mouth of some kind of beast when he stepped into this small courtyard.

'This is... a dangerous place...'

Hou Xianglong was shocked in his heart: 'I clearly saw the Feng Shui here outside the hospital the other day. It's not a treasure of Feng Shui, but it doesn't have any evil aura at all. How could it be...'

Thinking of this, Hou Xianglong's obsession with Feng Shui outweighed his fear.

He lit a candle, took out his compass and began to check the feng shui and changes in the earth's veins in the yard.

After this investigation, he gradually discovered the problem.

‘There was a change in the earth’s veins, and after the earth evil surged in the center of the courtyard... it changed the feng shui aura in the courtyard, forming a pattern of great evil, which has the effect of changing fate. ’

'If you stay in such a dangerous situation for a long time, your family will inevitably be destroyed. Is Chu Qiguang okay? ’

Hou Xianglong felt that the chess piece Chu Qiguang was getting more and more shady.

‘The spiritual vein near Qingyang County is Jiling or Meishan. ’

'Jiling is one of the main veins in the world. Once there is a change, it will not just be a surge of earthly evil. ’

‘Is there something wrong with Meishan’s spiritual veins? ’

‘And it only affected the area in this courtyard? ’

‘If it were formed naturally, it would be a marvelous workmanship. ’

'But if someone specially arranged it, this person's achievements in Feng Shui and destiny...'

In his heart, there is only one person in the world who can do this, and that is the Immortal Emperor in the Changsheng Palace in the capital, the current emperor of the Han Dynasty.

‘Someone must be plotting it secretly, and Chu Qiguang is the pawn they pushed to the surface. ’

Hou Xianglong left the Zhou family courtyard with many doubts in his heart. He had already made plans to report the findings here to the emperor.

But on a mountain road not long after leaving the village, a figure blocked the way at some point.

As the black clouds rolled in, the moonlight fell into a frosty white color, revealing the slightly cold face of the other party.

Hou Xianglong frowned and said calmly: "Who are you? Why do you want to block my way?"

The cold man said: "Someone thinks you know too much and asked me to wait here to kill you."

‘Waiting to kill me here? Could it be that this person was sent by the mastermind behind the scenes? How could he have calculated my trip today? ’ Hou Xianglong had a strange expression on his face. He observed the other person’s face and thought to himself: ‘This person clearly died young. Why did he grow so big? ’

The next moment, he saw a large piece of flesh bulging out from the opponent's back, and a pair of huge black feather wings sprouted out.

He flapped his wings hard, and in an instant, strong winds surged. The stern man rushed towards Hou Xianglong at an incredible speed.

‘The harpy? ’ Hou Xianglong was slightly shocked, but he was not panicked.

As an official of Qin Tian Jian, he is not weak in the martial arts of the five realms.

He has even mastered his own divination skills, and can predict the enemy's opportunities by observing his opponent's demeanor and movements, so he can attack the enemy and save him.

Looking at the hawk demon rushing towards him in the blink of an eye, Hou Xianglong slapped it with his palm.

Along with the burst of energy and blood, the air exploded, bringing up layers of palm shadows to hit the opponent's chest.

Amidst the roaring explosions, the howling wind and the rolling heat waves, Hou Xianglong was fighting with his opponent in the blink of an eye.

The more they fought, the more frightened Hou Xianglong became.

The hawk demon that suddenly appeared was far more powerful than ordinary martial arts warriors.

Especially when a pair of wings flap, they can bring up billowing energy to attack, making him feel like he is fighting several masters at the same time.

This hawk demon's movement technique was even more lightning-fast, far superior to all the five-level warriors he had ever seen. Several times, he had predicted the opponent's attacks and had no time to counterattack.

'This demon's martial arts skills are simply unfathomable...'

boom! boom!

Hou Xianglong only felt that the opponent's hands seemed to disappear for a moment, and then he felt a pain in his chest and his whole body was blown away.

He immediately rolled over, endured the injuries on his body, and turned around to run.

brush! boom!

The ground exploded under the feet of the harpy, and the figure of the harpy disappeared instantly and appeared in the sky dozens of meters high.

A rumbling scream sounded, and Hou Xianglong looked back and felt his scalp numb.

He saw the hawk demon flying in mid-air, the aura all over his body roaring like a tornado, rushing towards him with a power that could tear the heaven and earth apart.

Alas, I am really unwilling to be able to write a novel for several days in a row... I still have one chapter tonight.
