Chapter 100: Serious as Imagined

~8 min read 1,401 words

Lin Yu re-marked the locations of these streets on the map and then said in a deep voice: "That's it, those Neon people..."

Zhou Yuanli and Jiang Yicheng did not understand why Lin Yu was so shocked, but seeing his face turn blue and his expression serious, they also felt the gravity of the matter.

"Zhou Yuanli, please take a photo of this map and send it to the Cabinet in the capital; they will know what this means." Lin Yu's words made Zhou Yuanli even more confused, but he did as instructed.

Facing the puzzled Jiang Yicheng, Lin Yu said angrily: "Those Neon people are truly wolf-hearted."

Hearing this, Jiang Yicheng realized the gravity of the problem, because he understood the legend of the Nine Dragon Array from a hundred years ago.

Hanfang Pharmaceutical held onto the land in Miao Street tightly, clearly having taken a fancy to the Feng Shui advantages here.

Even in Neon Country, there were professional Feng Shui masters; it seems Hanfang Pharmaceutical also believed in this deeply.

"Master Lin, please explain in detail, what is going on?" Facing the inquiry, Lin Yu did not rush to answer, but picked up a pen, sketched some key points on the paper, and connected them one by one.

He first pointed to one place and said: "Huayang City, since the Neon Style Street was built in the second year, it has suffered a severe drought, crops have failed, and the people have lived in poverty."

Then he pointed to another place: "Liaodong City, in the five years since the Neon Shrine Street was built, it has slid from a top-tier second-tier city in the country to the bottom of the third-tier cities."

Subsequently, Lin Yu's finger moved to the third location: "Mindong City, every year since the Neon Cherry Blossom Street was built, a summer festival has been held, and as a result, local enterprises have collapsed one after another. Now the entire city is almost controlled by enterprises from Neon Country."

Lin Yu looked at the two seriously and questioned: "Don't you see the problem in this?"

Once this was said, Zhou Yuanli and Jiang Yicheng suddenly felt a chill and finally realized the gravity of the problem.

Facts have proven that cities with various streets invested in and built by Neon Country have all experienced economic problems to varying degrees.

Cities that appear prosperous on the surface are actually controlled by foreign capital. Although these situations are widely known, no one has ever linked these problems to the investments of Neon Country.

If Lin Yu hadn't pointed it out, perhaps no one would have ever noticed this point.

Lin Yu finally cast his gaze toward Zhou Province, especially Qingzhou: "Zhou Yuanli, the economic development of Qingzhou Province once far exceeded ours, but now it has fallen far behind."

Zhou Yuanli was dumbfounded after hearing this. When he served in Qingzhou, he had opposed building the Neon Style Street, and because of this, he was transferred to this place and was promoted due to outstanding performance.

Subsequently, Lin Yu mentioned Minzhou Province: "Eight years ago, Minzhou Province was one of the top three provinces in the country in terms of economy, and now I'm afraid it's difficult to even enter the top fifteen."

Hearing this, Jiang Yicheng couldn't help but break into a cold sweat, feeling both fearful and fortunate that his region had not been affected.

In the end, Zhou Yuanli hurriedly took out his phone to take a photo and send the data, wondering in his heart: Could the cooperation with Neon Country have directly led to the decline of these cities? Is there an inevitable connection?

At this time, Lin Yu suddenly asked: "When will Zhang Song arrive?"

Jiang Yicheng replied: "He will arrive by plane tomorrow, but what does this have to do with that Taoist?"

Jiang Yicheng had just asked, and he already had the answer in his heart. That's right, Zhang Song is a Feng Shui master from Longhu Mountain, and his master was the legendary figure who designed and laid out the Nine Dragon Array with the great man a hundred years ago!

Zhou Yuanli also realized this point and asked in shock: "Is Feng Shui really that magical? Isn't this superstition?"

Lin Yu responded confidently: "True Feng Shui is definitely not superstition; otherwise, why would emperors of all dynasties give Feng Shui masters such a high status?"

Despite this, Jiang Yicheng was still confused and pursued the question: "Although I am willing to believe it, these mysterious things are always hard to convince people."

Lin Yu explained calmly: "This is because you have never met a true Feng Shui master; most of the ones you see on a daily basis are scammers. In fact, Feng Shui is an ancient science. Some ancient Feng Shui masters could even adjust local environments and influence weather changes."

Zhou Yuanli, who is an atheist, excitedly retorted: "Controlling the weather? This is too exaggerated."

Lin Yu did not answer directly, but said calmly: "Just as people laugh when they are happy, cry when they are sad, and feel depressed when they fail; heaven and earth also have emotions, sunny and clear when happy, and overcast and rainy when sad."

People who understand Feng Shui are like artists who can regulate the emotions of heaven and earth. If heaven suffers from a long drought, the Feng Shui master will find a way to make it rain; if the earth is long-depressed, the Feng Shui master will also find a way to make it see the sun again.

The people who can call the wind and summon the rain recorded in ancient books are based on this principle."

After listening to these words, the two were half-believing. However, Lin Yu subsequently revealed an even more shocking secret: "What Neon Country has done is not just to slow down the economic development of certain regions in our country."

"They have spent more than twenty years meticulously laying out a huge Feng Shui array, and the purpose may be to steal the destiny of our country. Although it sounds like nonsense..."

Speaking to the end, Lin Yu gave a self-deprecating smile, hoping his guess was wrong.

And considering that huge Feng Shui array that took more than twenty years, there must be a huge secret hidden behind it.

These words shocked Jiang Yicheng and Zhou Yuanli.

If the Feng Shui theory is true, then Neon Country carrying out such activities in our country is almost equivalent to launching a hidden war of invasion.

"Xiao Yu, are you and Zhou Yuanli done talking?" At this time, Wu Shuping pushed the door and entered, seeing the national map on the table at a glance, and blurted out:

"Isn't this the Yu King Nine Tripods Array? Legend has it that after Dayu controlled the floods, in order to stabilize the regime, he cast nine tripods and distributed them to the nine provinces, and additionally made fifteen small tripods to send to other tribes as symbols."

Wu Shuping pointed to the last location and said: "Currently, there is one place missing a tripod among the nine provinces, and that is here."

Everyone followed her finger and looked; that was precisely the location of Miao Street in Huacheng.

Huacheng is not conspicuous on the map, but Wu Shuping's next words made the coordinates of this place abnormally clear: Miao Street.

She explained: "If there is a city here, then the tripod should be placed in the center of the city. Building a temple or a Taoist temple can also symbolize the existence of the tripod, so the entire Feng Shui layout is complete."

Once this was said, everyone was shocked, realizing that the situation was far more serious than they had imagined.

Although this sounded absurd, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of unease.

Lin Yu spoke with difficulty: "Third Aunt, the defensive layout on this map has actually already been laid out, and now it is just missing the last piece of the puzzle."

Hearing this, Wu Shuping's originally calm expression instantly became serious and heavy.

Lin Yu emphasized further: "And this last piece is the Miao Street in Huacheng."

Wu Shuping's face changed drastically, and she asked urgently: "Who did it?"

"Neon people." Lin Yu had just said these few words when he was interrupted by Wu Shuping. ===== CHAPTER 101 =====
