Chapter 524: Chapter 524: The Ancestor Says to Believe in Science

Xia Xin announced the drawn slots, and instantly people in the forum were either joyous or dismayed.

Xia Xin had no time to reply to them, as private messages began to chime in.

The selected people had begun contacting Xia Xin.

Xia Xin checked the first person’s private message, in chronological order.

This person didn’t wait for Xia Xin to speak and sent over a flood of messages.

Having read everything, Xia Xin concluded, "Old Ancestor, he wants you to look at the Feng Shui of his place."

"Feng Shui?" Jiangli asked in confusion, "I’m not at his place, how can I check his Feng Shui? What exactly did he say?"

Xia Xin replied according to the message content, "He said he moved to a new house a year ago, and after the move, he’s been unwell, ending up in the hospital every now and then."

The person claimed to have learned about Jiangli from Yun Xizi’s post, and knew that Jiangli’s fortune-telling was extremely accurate.

He believed that a master who was so spot-on with predictions would surely know a bit about Feng Shui.

So, he wanted to consult with Jiangli.

He had been waiting for a long time before getting picked.

Since he moved, he constantly fell ill and often met with misfortune, like getting drenched by passing cars while waiting at a bus stop.

Or unexpectedly tripping over while walking.

His illness got more severe lately, leading to kidney disease, which kept him hospitalized for a long time before being able to move back home.

After learning about Jiangli, he became more convinced that either he had encountered some malevolent entity claiming lives, or there was something wrong with the Feng Shui at home, and he wanted Jiangli to check it out.

To be more accurate, he even sent over the floor plan of his home and his Eight Characters of Birth.

He pleaded with Jiangli to determine the exact nature of the problem.

Xia Xin showed Jiangli the pictures and the Eight Characters of Birth.

Jiangli said, "There’s no need to look at it, it’s not an issue with the house’s Feng Shui."

Xia Xin, holding his phone, paused and questioned, "Why not?"

Jiangli looked at him, "Hasn’t the old Taoist told you? Feng Shui has both internal and external factors. The internal relates to the layout within the home, and the external to the surrounding environment and structures. Internal Feng Shui issues might at most bring some bad luck or affect financial fortune, it’s unlikely to cause serious injury or illness. If it truly were Feng Shui, he should consider external influences, such as any particular structures near his home, understand?"

Xia Xin had a moment of realization, "So there’s more to it..." he muttered, "I’ve said before, most commercial housing is pretty standard nowadays, there’s hardly a big difference in Feng Shui, yet people still hire experts to check it."

Jiangli raised an eyebrow, "Your masters here even make money off of that part?"

Xia Xin nodded, "Yeah, nowadays many people like to have someone evaluate their home’s Feng Shui."

Jiangli smirked, "If there really is a problem with the internal Feng Shui, it’s easily fixable by rearranging some plants or furnishings, and it should also match the homeowner’s birth chart. Major impact usually comes from external factors."

Xia Xin sort of understood, "So his issue could be due to external factors?"

Jiangli paused for a second and asked, "What’s his birth chart saying?"

Xia Xin immediately recited the Eight Characters of Birth.

Upon hearing this, Jiangli calculated for a moment and said, "Tell him to seek proper medical treatment. His destiny inclines him to be frail and sickly, and these years are particularly unfavorable, affecting his health. However, his fortune will turn for the better in middle age. In a couple of years, once his health improves, his luck will too. It has nothing to do with his residence."

Xia Xin hadn’t even responded when

Jiangli added, "It’s truly strange with you modern people. If you’re ill, seek medical treatment. Aren’t you modern? Why are you so obsessed with feudal superstition?"

Xia Xin: "..."

Old Ancestor, are we, the ones involved in this business, really the ones to say such things?
