Chapter 4138 Head-down vertical burial
The thought of the Blood Bricks Deceiving the Heavens Feng Shui Formation sent a chill down my spine; this was no good formation.
If things go wrong, the entire Lin family could lose their lives.
Thinking of this, I picked up a broken brick from the ground again and took a look. My master had told me before that the Blood Brick Concealing Heaven Formation was a somewhat sinister feng shui formation.
These thirty-six bricks were made from the blood of thirty-six people who died unjustly, mixed with glutinous rice and cinnabar, and fired into thirty-six blue bricks. They were then used to build the bricks under the main beam of the old house. The area beneath the old house itself is an extremely ominous place. It is estimated that a long, long time ago, it was an execution ground or perhaps a mass grave. The old locust tree in the courtyard is specifically designed to absorb the evil energy from the ground, and there is also a bronze mirror buried there, with its face down, to suppress the wronged souls of those who died here before, preventing them from coming out to cause trouble.
Every method used to set up this feng shui formation is extremely sinister, yet it must be said that the feng shui master who set up this Blood Brick Concealment Formation was exceptionally skilled.
All the sinister methods proved that this was an extremely ominous place, but the feng shui master had somehow managed to make the magic array have a positive effect despite its negative aspects.
As the saying goes, things reach their extremes and then reverse. Only when all the evil forces work together can the Lin family be guaranteed wealth and prosperity for generations to come, and their descendants be free from worries about food and clothing.
However, there is a condition: the thirty-six blood-stained bricks on the roof beams must not be moved.
I remember my master once told me a mantra: "Don't move the blood brick, don't cut down the locust tree, and don't dig up the bronze mirror."
If even the slightest movement is made, this feng shui formation will be completely destroyed. If all three locations are affected, the Lin family will inevitably suffer a bloody disaster, with the entire family being wiped out.
This is no joke; the feng shui formation used here is just too sinister.
The bricks are mixed with glutinous rice and the blood of the wronged, and so many vicious ghosts are still suppressed in the ancestral home.
However, this is not the key point. If this is how a house is arranged, then a grave will certainly be arranged as well. Only when the two types of dwellings cooperate with each other can they achieve better results.
My master told me that, in addition to this arrangement for residential houses, when the first ancestor of the Lin family was buried, a place for raising corpses had to be found, and he was buried vertically with his head down and his body wrapped with copper coins, symbolizing that his descendants would stand out from the crowd and become extremely wealthy.
In contrast, the Lin family's mansion was probably a wealthy family long ago, all thanks to this feng shui arrangement.
Now that the blood brick has landed and broken into several pieces, a series of adverse consequences will follow.
The most terrifying thing is that the first generation of ancestors buried in the Lin family's ancestral graves will inevitably be affected by the magic array and undergo corpse transformation.
Moreover, once a zombie reanimates, it becomes exceptionally ferocious.
I have no idea what kind of zombie it will become.
I don't know how long this has been going on; I guess Mr. Lin hasn't visited their family's ancestral graves in a long time.
Thinking of this, I immediately walked outside.
Little Fatty, Master Zhou, and Boss Lin were all waiting for me outside.
As soon as I came out, Boss Lin came out and asked anxiously, "Young Master Wu, have you figured out what's going on?"
"I have a question for you. Is your father still alive?" I asked, looking at him.
Mr. Lin was taken aback, probably wondering why I suddenly asked this question. He paused for a moment and then said, "Yes, I'm over seventy now."
"Did he tell you that the blood-stained bricks on the main beam of this old house cannot be moved, the locust tree cannot be cut down, and the bronze mirror under the locust tree cannot be dug up?" I asked seriously.
Mr. Lin looked surprised: "No, my father never mentioned it. He developed Alzheimer's a few years ago, and sometimes he doesn't even recognize me."
Upon hearing this, I immediately understood what was going on. The Lin family must have an ancestral precept passed down through generations, instructing their descendants not to touch these three things in the old house. Unfortunately, Mr. Lin's father developed Alzheimer's disease a few years ago and fell ill before he could tell Mr. Lin about this, so Mr. Lin was unaware of this ancestral precept.
I immediately explained the Blood Brick Concealing Heaven Formation to them in detail.
They were all dumbfounded when they heard what I said.
Master Zhou spoke first: "Young Master Wu, no wonder I was hit by evil energy and fainted on the spot when I walked around the old house with my compass. It turns out that there are countless evil ghosts suppressed under this old house. It's a good thing you came. There are very few people in the world who can see through this kind of sinister formation."
"Young Master Wu, is there any way to salvage this situation? I didn't know this old house couldn't be moved. My father didn't tell me. My grandfather passed away when I was a teenager... What should we do?" Boss Lin panicked immediately.
"Let's not talk about this old house for now. Let's go check on your family's ancestral graves first. The Blood Brick Concealing Heaven Array uses your family's first ancestor buried in the graves as the array's core. It could turn into a zombie at any time. If we go now, we might still make it in time. If we go too late, your whole family's lives will be in danger," I said nervously.
"Young Master Wu, what kind of logic is this? How could my ancestors possibly harm me?" Boss Lin asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Nonsense, your ancestors have blessed their descendants, and you are the ones who have benefited. If misfortune strikes, it will definitely start with you first. Go and take a look. Young Master Wu is right." Master Zhou also realized the seriousness of the situation.
Mr. Lin was completely bewildered. Urged by us, he hurriedly walked out of the yard, beckoned us to get in the car, and prepared to visit their ancestral graves.
After getting in the car, I said to Boss Lin again, "Call a few workers over. We might need to break ground and dig up the grave to find the body of your first ancestor who was buried in the ancestral grave. We'll burn it. If the corpse reanimates, I'm afraid I won't be able to control the situation."
Mr. Lin readily agreed and immediately called someone to go to their ancestral graves.
It was already late at night, and Boss Lin must have spent a lot of money to hire people to work so late at night.
So we got into Mr. Lin's car and headed straight for his family's ancestral graves.
The ancestral graves were not far from the Lin family's old house. We arrived in about twenty minutes. We parked the car on the mainland and walked for seven or eight minutes to a shady hillside. There were more than a dozen graves of various sizes there, without any tombstones, and the graves were covered with weeds.
Mr. Lin said that this is his family's ancestral grave.
I took the compass and circled their ancestral graves. I quickly determined the exact location of their first ancestor buried there and made a mark on it.
After waiting for about half an hour, a van drove up, and six or seven workers carrying shovels and hoes got out and walked towards us.
