Chapter 53 Karma and Retribution
Qian Shaokang trembled all over.
He immediately recalled that when he bought this item, the seller had nervously warned him never to touch it with his bare hands.
He hadn't taken it seriously at first, but seeing Master Mo Yang's nervous expression, he flinched. He glanced at the jade eggplant and asked in a low voice, "Master Mo Yang, what exactly is this jade eggplant?"
Master Mo Yang took the jade box, looked at the jade inside, and explained, "In ancient times, people had a near-superstitious reverence for jade, believing that it could bring peace to the living and preserve the dead. Thus, when burying ancient people, they would use jade to seal the nine orifices of the corpse."
"The jade plug you found is one of the nine-orifice jades, specifically the one used to seal the lower body of a thousand-year-old female corpse. Because it is short, pointed, and kuai-shaped, resembling an eggplant, it is also called a jade eggplant."
"This jade has absorbed the malevolent energy of the ancient corpse, making it extremely yin and sinister. If you touch it, you'll be plagued by bad luck for the rest of your life. Losing your fortune would be the least of it; you might even get hit by a car when you go out!"
"Ah?"
Hearing how terrifying the jade was, Qian Shaokang stumbled back a step, staring at the jade with a look of horror.
Although he didn't know what it was specifically, he knew that anything used to plug a woman's lower body was quite disgusting.
Not to mention its power to bring him bad luck.
Qian Shaokang asked, puzzled, "Master Mo Yang, what are you doing with this thing?"
Master Mo Yang snorted coldly, "Tonight, during the yin hour, I will set up a Ghost Sha Feng Shui formation!"
"Once the Ghost Sha Feng Shui formation is complete, the Liu family and that brat with whom they have karma will be haunted by evil spirits and plagued by bad luck. They will surely die within seven days!"
When Qian Shaokang heard that this vile object could be used against the Liu family and Chen Xuan, he immediately became incredibly excited and shouted, "Master Mo Yang is mighty!"
Master Mo Yang looked at the jade eggplant in the jade box, his eyes flashing with a cold light, and sneered, "Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan, your luck seems to be quite poor. With this jade eggplant from a thousand-year-old female corpse, and tonight being the yin moon and yin hour, its power will increase fivefold. Tomorrow, you'll have terrible luck, and you'll choke to death just drinking water!"
If Master Mo Yang had known that Chen Xuan had already used a black jade protective talisman for the Zhou family, which had double the power to reflect malevolent energy,
He would never have used this jade eggplant that had sealed the lower body of a thousand-year-old female corpse!
In the blink of an eye, it was midnight, the yin hour!
Master Mo Yang eagerly went to the backyard, holding a peach wood sword. On the table were several props commonly used by Feng Shui masters.
Soon, with the jade eggplant as the core of the formation, he affixed a talisman written with the most yin and sinister snake blood.
He roared, "Ghost Sha Feng Shui formation, commence!"
Saying this, he pointed the tip of the peach wood sword directly at the talisman.
At this moment, a fierce wind blew, accompanied by lightning and thunder!
Master Mo Yang held the wooden sword, pointing it at the sky, his long hair flying wildly, like a celestial being descending!
Qian Shaokang, who was waiting by the side, looked at Master Mo Yang as if he were a god and knelt before him with a thud!
His eyes were filled with sincerity, and he chanted, "Immortal God Mo Yang! My Qian family has believed in you for generations and is willing to be your oxen and horses!"
The other members of the Qian family turned pale and also knelt down, bowing deeply towards Master Mo Yang.
Master Mo Yang looked at the Qian family members kneeling before him and couldn't help but laugh heartily.
He felt as majestic as an emperor seated in the Golden Luang Hall. To have reached his status was to be above all others!
Just as Master Mo Yang was basking in his triumph, suddenly, a chilling and potent aura descended from the sky and instantly entered Master Mo Yang's chest.
Master Mo Yang felt as if he had been struck by lightning!
His body stiffened, and his face turned a mottled purple.
Immediately after, he spat out a mouthful of black blood!
The black blood landed precisely on the Ghost Sha Feng Shui formation in front of him. A chilling black wind swept out from the formation and directly entered Master Mo Yang's chest.
In an instant, Master Mo Yang's forehead turned completely dark, his spirit waned, and he looked as if he had lost his soul.
The Qian family members raised their heads, seeing Master Mo Yang spitting blood, and were filled with surprise.
Qian Shaokang was stunned for a moment, then looked up to see Master Mo Yang's darkened forehead. He was terrified and quickly got up from the ground, asking worriedly, "Master Mo Yang... what... what's wrong with you?"
Master Mo Yang's expression turned extremely grim. Coupled with the invading yin energy that had rebounded into his body, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and said, "Go get me a mirror!"
Since Qian Shaokang had known Master Mo Yang, the latter had always been elegant and refined. Now, when he bared his teeth, his white teeth looked like those of a demon.
He was so scared that his face turned ashen, and he almost sat down on the ground. He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word.
Master Mo Yang yelled again, "Qian Shaokang, hurry up and get me a mirror!"
Qian Shaokang snapped back to reality and stammered, "I... I... I'll go now..."
He turned around and instructed a servant to get a mirror.
Soon, the servant handed a mirror to Master Mo Yang.
Master Mo Yang took the mirror and looked into it. Seeing his own blackened forehead, he became furious and said word by word, "You little bastard, how dare you scheme against me like this!"
"Master Mo Yang, what's wrong with you?" Qian Shaokang asked again.
Master Mo Yang gritted his teeth, "That scoundrel used black jade as a protective talisman! He reflected five times... no, ten times the power of the malevolent energy back at me!"
"Due to the karma, you, as the client of this ritual, will also bear the power of the Ghost Sha formation."
"Ah? But I don't feel anything?" Qian Shaokang looked bewildered, reaching up and touching himself, feeling no different than before.
Master Mo Yang turned the mirror towards Qian Shaokang.
Qian Shaokang glanced at the mirror and was so scared that he sat down on the ground.
His forehead was also dark!
As the client, Qian Shaokang's forehead was also slightly darkened, but it was still better than Master Mo Yang, the caster.
Qian Shaokang immediately panicked and rubbed his forehead vigorously, but the blackness wouldn't come off. It was clear it wasn't dirt. He quickly said to Mo Yang, "Master Mo Yang, my forehead is dark, will I also have terrible luck?"
Master Mo Yang nodded gloomily and advised, "From today onwards, try not to go out. Otherwise, you'll have to face bad luck."
"Ah?"
Qian Shaokang was dumbfounded.
Just moments ago, while Master Mo Yang was performing the ritual, he had been imagining the fate of the Liu family. But in the blink of an eye, it was his turn to suffer bad luck.
Before he could speak, the general manager of a construction company under the Qian family called.
Qian Shaokang answered the phone and yelled into it, "Don't bother me if it's nothing important!"
"President Qian, this is a disaster! The Qianjiang Bridge we completed three months ago has collapsed, and several people have fallen into the river. Many relevant departments are already at the scene. There's something fishy about our bridge, and if it's investigated, we're finished!"
Qian Shaokang's heart sank.
This was already bad luck?
Wasn't this happening too fast?
Immediately after, Master Mo Yang also received a call.
"Master Mo Yang, this is a disaster! Our believers at the Dragon Tiger Hall were praying, but the main hall suddenly collapsed!"
Hearing this news, Master Mo Yang's heart sank. He managed to calm himself down and said methodically, "Quickly issue a public announcement, stating that it must be shoddy construction. Also, contact the construction company that built the hall."
"That hall was built by Qian's Real Estate Company. I'll contact them right away..."
Master Mo Yang's mouth twitched: "......"
The ten-times-power Ghost Sha Feng Shui formation was truly terrifying, like being possessed by a jinx!
