Chapter 148: Feng Shui Master

"I don't care. You saved me, so you don't hate me." Xu Siying smiled, her face disfigured.

"Untie the others." Chen Yu was speechless; was this woman not right in the head?

"Move in." A deep shout suddenly came from outside, and several police officers pushed the door open, led by Ren Zhenghao.

"It's you?" Chen Yu looked at Ren Zhenghao in surprise.

"That's right, it's me. Chen Yu, why are you everywhere?" Ren Zhenghao said, speechless.

"I helped you take down these human traffickers, aren't you going to thank me?" Chen Yu glanced at him.

"Yes, I thank you. This group is a criminal gang; they were supposed to transport people to their lair today so we could round them all up, but you just had to go and knock them all out," Ren Zhenghao said, between laughter and tears.

"Is that so? Then I'm sorry." Chen Yu smiled awkwardly.

Seven or eight women were untied, but suddenly, one girl fell to the ground and began to convulse violently, and immediately after, the rest of them fell to the ground one by one, slipping into varying degrees of unconsciousness.

"What's going on?" Ren Zhenghao was startled.

"Chen Yu, these people fed them medicine before you rushed in," Xu Siying said cautiously.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Chen Yu frowned and hurriedly stepped forward, tapping a few points on the girls' bodies to temporarily ease their convulsions, then he reached out to touch one of the girls, his expression shifting slightly.

"Send them to the hospital quickly," Ren Zhenghao shouted.

"You can't send them to the hospital; it's useless if you do. These girls were fed Corpse Oil." Chen Yu saw a small bottle on the ground, picked it up, and sniffed it, his brow furrowing tightly.

"What is Corpse Oil?" Ren Zhenghao asked in surprise.

"In Southeast Asia, there is a profession called Sorcerer. You've heard of that, right? Even if you haven't, you've seen the movie *Descending Head*, right?" Chen Yu asked.

"I've heard of it, so what?" Ren Zhenghao said.

"This Corpse Oil comes from the hands of a Sorcerer. A dead body is hung upside down in a Yin Land and roasted with ghost fire; after seven days, corpse fluid will flow out from the forehead."

"The collected corpse fluid is then refined, and it becomes Corpse Oil. This kind of Corpse Oil has many uses; it can refine a Walking Corpse, perform Soul Detention and soul control, and can also be used to refine and collect Yin Qi," Chen Yu said.

"Then will they have problems?" Ren Zhenghao looked at the girls, feeling somewhat alarmed.

"The problems will be huge. After drinking the Corpse Oil, if no measures are taken within seventy-two hours, they will turn into a Half-Corpse Body. Once their Yin and Yang energies are drained by the practitioner, they will become a Dried Corpse," Chen Yu said.

"Are you telling the truth?" Ren Zhenghao was shocked. "Then what should we do?"

"Bring over a few bowls of clear water," Chen Yu said.

"Go get water quickly," Ren Zhenghao ordered.

A moment later, a police officer brought over a few bowls of water. Chen Yu took out several Paper Talismans, condensed his True Qi, and the Paper Talismans ignited. He threw the Paper Talismans into the water, changed his hand seals, and pointed at the bowls from a distance.

Boom... Flames shot into the sky, then gradually extinguished. Chen Yu supported one of the women and fed it to her.

"You..." Ren Zhenghao's mouth opened, wanting to stop Chen Yu, but Chen Yu had already fed it to her.

After drinking the Talisman Water, the woman stopped convulsing. A moment later, she woke up, and seeing the police present, she lost control of her emotions for a moment.

"Hurry and let them all drink it." Ren Zhenghao was finally relieved; he hurriedly had his subordinates feed the girls the Talisman Water and then comforted the frightened girls.

"Have there been many missing persons lately?" Chen Yu asked.

"There are six missing, and they are all young girls, which is why we locked onto this gang, but now it seems this gang is not simple," Ren Zhenghao said, frowning.

"I'll handle this matter; you can't solve it," Chen Yu said indifferently.

"I say, Chen Yu, can you stop looking down on people like that?" Ren Zhenghao was unhappy; this was the second time Chen Yu had said he couldn't solve a problem.

However, he was under great pressure; the previous mass-murder case was still hanging, and now a missing-persons case had arrived.

"I really don't mean to belittle you at all," Chen Yu said with a bitter smile. "The other party is a Sorcerer and possesses evil arts; it's really not easy to solve. You should report it up; someone will handle it."

"Alright, handcuff these people and take them back for questioning." Ren Zhenghao waved his hand. "Regardless, I have to say thank you to you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid these girls wouldn't have been able to wake up."

"Let's skip the polite talk; I'm heading back first." Chen Yu smiled. He turned and looked at Xu Siying. "Are you going back in the police car, or should I take you?"

"You take me, Chen Yu." Xu Siying looked at Chen Yu pitifully.

"Let's go," Chen Yu said, annoyed.

In the car, Chen Yu tossed a bottle of medicine to Xu Siying. "Your face is disfigured; apply this and sleep, and by tomorrow, it won't be visible."

"Really? Thank you, Chen Yu." Xu Siying hurriedly and happily took the medicine.

"In the future, don't come running to me for no reason, okay?" Chen Yu glanced at her.

"If you really hate me... I won't come to find you anymore." Xu Siying was startled and lowered her head pitifully.

"You... it's fine to come and play with Xinyu," Chen Yu sighed.

"Then I'll come often in the future," Xu Siying said joyfully.

"Just pretend I didn't say anything." Chen Yu was speechless and started the car.

The next day, at Longhu Wetland Park, the reorganized Xia Real Estate broke ground for the first time.

After the groundbreaking ceremony ended, Chen Yu, Xia Tian, and Huang Yiqiang were wearing hard hats and looking around the construction site.

The president of Xia Real Estate, Bai Jingye, accompanied the three. Bai Jingye was in his forties and had managed several projects; Xia Tian had poached him with a high salary.

"Chen Yu, you have to take a look at the Feng Shui layout of our building complex," Xia Tian said with a smile.

"In terms of geographical location and layout, it's quite good," Chen Yu said, nodding as he looked around. "It leans against the Mountain and faces the water, with the main entrance facing south, which signifies Purple Qi entering the residence and wealth coming from all directions."

"Haha, I'm relieved to hear you say that," Huang Yiqiang laughed. "This project will definitely sell out. Let's go, let's go ahead and take a look."

"However, looking at the plan, there is a water feature built in the direction of the main entrance, which is Nine Dragons Embracing the Pillar, right?" Chen Yu took out the blueprints and said.

"That's right, President Chen, your observation is very detailed. This is a spot personally chosen by the Feng Shui master I invited from Hong Kong, Wu Zhengye. Flowing water generates wealth, signifying great fortune and prosperity," Bai Jingye smiled.

"The meaning is correct; the entrance usually has a water system to gather wealth and receive blessings, and designing it as a dragon has the intention of warding off evil and protecting the house," Chen Yu smiled. "However, from the perspective of the geographical location and orientation, it would be better to remove this water feature."

"What do you mean? Could the Feng Shui I, Wu Zhengye, looked at possibly be wrong?" As soon as Chen Yu's voice fell, a cold snort came from behind.

A man over sixty years old appeared, wearing a grey robe and holding a Compass, looking every bit the expert. He was the famous Feng Shui master in the Feng Shui circle, Wu Zhengye. Behind him followed two disciples, their expressions quite arrogant.
