A Feng Shui Master's Guide to Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 143 The Royal Family Solicits

Chen Ling was startled, got up and quickly opened the door: "What did you say?! When did this happen? How big is the pit?" Xi Yunting also quickly left the room, standing there looking at Shen who was still in shock. Flying geese.

Shen Yanxing didn't care to think about why the teacher came out of the uncle's room so late, he hurriedly said: "It happened just now. I was being reprimanded in front of my father, and Uncle Wang was also there. My father also blamed me for calling me without reporting." People went to station in the north of the city, and Uncle Wang was speaking for me, when someone came to report that the north of the city had suddenly sunk, revealing a big deep pit. There were a dozen or so families in the position that all fell down, causing heavy casualties. The city guard over there has already started to rescue, and when I ran out, my father was dispatching people to go."

Chen Xiao made a decisive decision and said, "I'm going to take a look at the scene."

Shen Yanxing nodded quickly, and he said, "That's why I came to pick up the teacher. The capital city has a curfew at this time, and no one is allowed to go out without a warrant."

Chen Xiao paused and looked back at Xi Yunting beside him: "Brother, are you going?"

Xi Yunting looked at him and said, "Brother will of course go with younger brother Xiao."

Chen Xiao immediately felt relieved, and then followed the trotting Shen Yan out of the inn.

At this time, rumors about the pit in the north of the city had spread to the inn, and the shopkeeper and the waiter were standing at the door looking solemnly.There are more or less people standing in front of the doors of every house on the street.If it weren't for the people of the city guard shouting the curfew and speeding past, many people would definitely go to the north of the city to see the situation regardless of the danger.

Seeing this, Chen Ling nodded secretly, considering that the capital city government is very efficient.You must know that during rescue, it is most taboo for unrelated people to walk around at the scene.

Shen Yanxing came out in a hurry, riding a scaly horse.Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting only used their body skills to move forward, not much slower than Shen Yanxing.

From a distance, Chen Ling could see that the block he just visited yesterday was blocked, and he could hear the cries of frightened women and children, and the residents living there were being evacuated.Faced with such a futile catastrophe, it is impossible for ordinary people not to be afraid.

The capital city government transferred several lamps from the palace, which were powered by spirit beads and were only used when holding open-air banquets.These headlights gave off a milky white light, and the place where the accident was illuminated was as bright as day.

With this light, Chen Ling could see that many people were still wearing underwear, and they were even wearing cloth shoes with bare feet.Seeing that Chen Xiao stopped there to pay attention to these people, Shen Yanxing rode on a scaled horse and walked a few steps quickly, looking for a figure who looked like a captain to ask.

After a while, Shen Yanxing returned to Chen Xiao and said, "Father is worried that the scope of the pit collapse will expand, so the people in this block are allowed to leave temporarily."

Chen Xiao said in a low voice: "Your royal father dealt with it in a timely manner. It's just that the weather is cold, and these people have no clothes to keep them warm. Is there a place for them to go?"

This world can have various emergency plans like the country in the previous life. In an emergency, public places such as schools and parks will be used as shelters, and people will naturally send disaster relief supplies there.As long as the victims stay there, they don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and they can even receive bedding and clothes.

I just want to evacuate the people in the block, not find a place for them to settle, and give them food and warm clothes.They were bound to get sick and even die from starvation and cold.

Shen Yanxing was startled, apparently he hadn't considered this before.He hurried to the direction of the captain again, said a few words to him, and the captain ran to report to Shangfeng.

Shen Yanxing came back panting: "Thank you, teacher, for reminding, otherwise it will cause public resentment. I will ask people to go to the nearby aristocratic family to accommodate, let them open the martial arts field to these victims, and the capital city government will send supplies soon."

With Shen Yanxing clearing the way, of course the two of Chen Xiao couldn't be stopped.Zhou Zheng had already rushed over ahead of time, and the three of them were taken to a high place near the pit as soon as they arrived.

Standing on the roof of an empty residential house, Chen Xiao looked at the pit with a solemn expression.The area of ​​this pit is very large, and it is an oval shape.The narrow part is 30 meters, and the wide part is 60 meters.There are lights shining, but there is still no bottom.He asked Zhou Zheng: "How deep is this pit? Is there water at the bottom?"

Zhou Zheng's admiration for Chen Xiao at this moment was unprecedented. He had just said during the day that there would be a ground subsidence, and it came true at night in the north of the city.Zhou Zheng replied respectfully: "This big pit is more than 20 meters deep. The bottom of the pit is uneven, there is no water in the high places, and water seeps out of the lower soil layers."

The distance of more than 20 meters, even the house and people fell, but there is little hope of survival.Chen Xiao couldn't bear to frown, looking at the city guards who were still digging up and down to save people, he regretted a little, hoping that if he could find out earlier and evacuate in advance, these people might not die.

However, he also knew that this was just his wishful thinking. Even if he made a suggestion, the Shen family would not easily agree to such a major event as evacuating the block.

Sighing softly, Chen Xiao said, "Is the structure underneath safe? Don't let a second collapse occur and cause casualties to these rescuers."

"Master Chen, don't worry, the Lord has gone to see it in person. The soil layer inside the pit is still solid and will not loosen for the time being." Report your discovery to the king."

Chen Ling was startled, then nodded and said, "Got it."

Chen Xiao originally wanted to go down and have a look, but seeing the city guards who were busy clearing up the ruins and digging up the corpses, she gave up the idea.

After only watching this for a moment, seven corpses were dug out from the bottom of the pit, looking very tragic.Chen Ling and Shen Yanxing looked blue and their stomachs were churning.

Just when Chen Ling was about to leave, Shen Yonghe appeared.Originally, in his capacity, he didn't have to come in person on occasions like this.But after all, this is the first disaster that happened after the founding of the dynasty, especially when it happened in an extremely close distance.Shen Yonghe had to come and take a look, he was worried that this would affect the safety of the palace.

Shen Yongqing was also there, besides him, there were several ministers.Chen Xiao saw a familiar face in it in a daze, and when he fixed his eyes, it turned out to be the old city lord of Jincheng.

Shen Yonghe saw him here and walked over quickly.When he came to him, Shen Yonghe raised his hand and saluted.Chen Xiao was taken aback, and hurriedly returned the salute: "The lord of the country is so embarrassed."

Shen Yonghe said: "If it weren't for Master Chen's reminder, the children would not have deployed in advance, and today may cause even greater disasters."

Only then did Chen Xiao realize that, in addition to the corpses he saw in front of him, there were also some who were rescued from the houses by the city guards who rushed over in time at the beginning of the subsidence.Chen Xiao was immediately relieved when he heard this, and finally saved some lives.

Shen Yonghe saluted again at this time, Chen Xiao's cultivation level was not as high as his, and it was too late to stop him.He said helplessly: "If you have something to do, please speak up. You don't have to be so polite. I can't bear it."

Shen Yonghe said: "Master Chen can certainly bear it. Today I learned that Master Chen has made a conclusion, predicting that the capital will sink. On behalf of the Shen royal family, I implore Master Chen to lend a helping hand and save the people in this city."

Chen Xiao frowned and said: "The reason why I can see the signs in advance is just because of Feng Shui. Just being able to see and being able to solve them are two different things. After all, I am young and inexperienced, so I can't guarantee that I can resolve this capital city." The land is in danger."

Shen Yonghe showed a disappointed look: "Even Master Chen can't do it. Could it be that the only thing left for my Shen royal family is to move the capital?"

At this time, someone from the minister behind him said: "My lord, moving the capital is a waste of money and people, and I'm afraid it will shake the foundation of the country. It can't be done unless it is absolutely necessary."

Chen Xiao knew very well that it was not certain whether the country would be shaken, and the Shen family's royal family would definitely be seriously injured.It can't be said that it is a setback, at least it will take decades to recover.What is more serious than the loss of vitality is the reduction of the royal family's prestige. This is a loss that cannot be recovered after 80 years of hard work.

It is the duty of a feng shui master to be anxious about people's urgency and resolve the disaster and embarrassment of the owner.Chen Xiao then said: "The lord, don't worry. Although there is no way to resolve the danger of the subsidence of the capital for the time being, I have a way to delay the disaster. This method can stabilize the bottom, and there will be no subsidence in a short time. In this way There is a buffer time, whether it is trying to resolve the disaster or moving the capital, it can be done calmly."

Shen Yonghe was overjoyed when he heard the words, he hurriedly said: "Master Chen has any good prescription, just tell me."

Chen Xiao said: "My method requires manpower and materials, and the cooperation of the country's master."

Shen Yonghe said: "Master Chen, just open your mouth, my Shen family will go through fire and water, it's no problem."

Chen Xiao smiled and said: "I don't need the lord's people to go through fire and water, but I just want the brothers of the city guard to work hard. It's best to clean up this big hole as soon as possible and then backfill it. All I need is this block , rearrange according to my plan."

Shen Yonghe said without hesitation: "As Master Chen wishes." He turned and faced the acting officials of the capital city government behind him and shouted, "The officials of the capital city government obey orders! During the planning and layout of the blocks by Master Chen, the capital city government and the city guards must cooperate. There must be no delay! Those who violate the order will not be forgiven!" Three people came out from among the ministers behind him, and bent over him: "The next official will receive the order."

They discussed all night near the pit, and it was not until dawn that Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting returned to the inn.When they came back, Tong Nuonuo and Tang Ru greeted them immediately.

"What's the matter with you?" Chen Ling looked at them in surprise.One of these two retreats, the other recuperates from injuries, and they basically don't go out.

Tong Nuonuo said: "I heard that there was an accident in the north of the city, and you were called away. I was wondering if I could help. It's a pity that there is a curfew outside, and the city guards won't let me go out on the street."

Tang Ru also nodded, and said: "The occurrence of the pit woke up the people in the inn, and many people worried that there would be an accident here. Of course, I also heard about it. How can I rest in peace?"

Chen Xiao smiled and said: "For the time being, it won't spread here yet. But the time for you to leave the customs is just right, and we are going to change places to live. Lord Shen allocated a place for us to live in, which is the royal garden. I used to only visit But, I've never lived there."

Xi Yunting was by his side and glanced at him upon hearing this.When did Xiaodi visit the royal garden?He was just an ordinary person before, and when he first met, he was just a clerk in an antique shop.

Chen Xiao inadvertently brought up the experience of his previous life by negligence, but Xi Yunting always kept his doubts in his heart, which made him unaware of his slip of the tongue.

Shen Yanxing sent someone to drive them to the garden of the royal family, and he packed up some things to live here. He pretended that he wanted to study with the teacher.This time he came here aboveboard, the small banquet at Shen Yonghe's side has stopped, and he will never be forced to accompany him again.
