Chapter 1045: Chapter 1044: Ten Miles, Different Skies

When the steel cables of the dump truck had just pulled open the lid of that giant coffin, there was a sudden rumble overhead!

"It’s thundering!"

"It’s going to rain!"

It’s just past the Mid-Autumn Festival, entering deep autumn.

Rain does fall in autumn, but sudden thunder like now seems somewhat abnormal. Moreover, the sun had been shining intensely just a moment ago, so how could it suddenly thunder?

Master Yuan looked up and found that not only did it thunder just now, but the sky above was also starting to fill with thick clouds.

What is happening?

Master Yuan had some guesses.

Other members of the construction team knew that standing in an open area during a thunderstorm makes you a lightning rod, and the whole area here was very open.

So, many people quickly headed to the temporary shelters built by the team earlier, preparing to wait out the heavy rain before coming to check again.

But, the lid of the giant coffin had already been pulled open.

Master Yuan and the others thought they should at least take a look inside to see what was there.

As they climbed the ladder to look inside the giant coffin, they found it filled with yellowing talismans, densely covering the interior.

Master Yuan felt dizzy, almost falling into the coffin, but promptly descended.

"Master, what did you see?"

"All talismans!"

As Master Yuan and the others headed toward the temporary shelter, the clouds overhead grew denser, suggesting the rain was only going to get heavier.

When many people climbed up the ladder and saw that the inside of the giant coffin was filled with talismans, they all felt quite disappointed as it was not the gold, silver, and jade burial items they had imagined.

With the rain and thunder looming, they could only head toward the temporary shelter.

Sure enough, in no time, the sky grew darker and heavier with rain, and lightning continuously struck the giant coffins as if they were highly conductive.

Now many people found it all a bit unlucky.

However, they could only watch from the shelter.

Secretary Lin, noticing the thunder, dared not call Chairman Su Wen and could only watch from the side.

"Master Yuan, now that these things are unearthed, does that mean the Feng Shui here is broken?"

Secretary Lin asked.

Master Yuan himself wasn’t sure. He couldn’t understand the true purpose of why these coffins were buried underground.

However, Secretary Lin thought it fortunate they unearthed these coffins, as nobody would dare live in the new housing to be built if buyers found out about them, even if given away for free.

Now that these coffins were unearthed, they must be taken away.

Master Yuan looked at the clouded sky and the heavy rain, and the lightning, when just moments ago the sun was shining brightly.

Unexpectedly, it now seemed darker than midnight, as if the sky was collapsing, dark and bleak.

"Kaboom!"

...

Intermittent thunder kept ringing, and just then, the people taking shelter heard a loud explosion outside.

Many climbed to the second floor of the shelter and looked toward where the coffins were just parked, seeing only darkness, but felt that the explosion must have occurred there.

It seemed the brass exterior of the giant coffins attracted the lightning, causing an explosion.

If that’s the case, it’s a pity.

After all, the coffins looked quite valuable, and if they were a kind of cultural relic, they might be protected national treasures.

But, they couldn’t say it out loud. If there were no gold and silver valuables inside, and the explosion left only brass, they could still melt it down and sell it. With so many coffins, if all brass, they could fetch a significant sum.

As many people were calculating, the rain fell harder, and the sky kept getting darker, matching the darkness of early morning, if not darker.

Master Yuan held the Compass inside, with the apprentice watching and noticing something was off about his master’s expression.

But, he didn’t know what his master was thinking.

"Master, I’m feeling a bit scared."

The apprentice whispered.

Master Yuan didn’t respond.

He recalled the talismans on the sides of the coffins and wondered what they represented.

As a descendant of Yuan Tiangang, Master Yuan had studied astronomy, astrology, predictions, Taoist arts, physiognomy, and Feng Shui. However, energy is limited, and no one can master everything like Yuan Tiangang.

Thus, Master Yuan excelled in Feng Shui and physiognomy, as these were favored by the wealthy, and he was well-versed in both.

As for Taoist arts, he had only a rudimentary understanding, so when he saw the talismans, he recognized them as Taoist, possibly related to Mao Shan Techniques.

However, as to their function, he hadn’t fully comprehended it at first. But recalling them now, he began to make out what they might be.

He recalled vomiting blood this morning, and nearly fainting into the coffin earlier.

What exactly was this?

Master Yuan realized this might not be a place to break negative Feng Shui but rather left by Feng Shui masters and yin-yang masters to suppress evil spirits.

The coffins were not ordinary because they weren’t carved with dragons and phoenixes or symbols of nobility, just filled with talismans.

Normally, noble coffins wouldn’t need such things, so he thought these coffins may be empty, but filled with talismans.

This suggested they were used to suppress something.

But what?

He didn’t know, and further investigation was needed.

But it was certainly related to the area’s malevolent energy.

If so, Master Yuan realized he might not have broken the Feng Shui but rather aggravated the malevolence.

Seeing his master’s growing unease, the apprentice became even more frightened.

Meanwhile, Secretary Lin watched the darkness outside; the lightning had ceased, but it was still very dark and pouring rain.

Secretary Lin picked up the phone to call Su Wen. After a moment, Su Wen answered, "Xiao Lin, how’s it going over there?"

"Chairman, nine large coffins have just been unearthed, and it just started to cloud over, rain heavily, and thunder, making the place look apocalyptic."

Secretary Lin reported.

Cloudy? Thunder? Heavy rain? Apocalyptic?

Su Wen opened the curtains in the CEO’s office, finding the sunlight outside to be glaring!

Could it really be that the weather was that different just a few miles apart?
