He explained as I looked at Ye Yang, "You find it incomprehensible because you've never encountered a disciple of Nan Yimu. Nan Yimu is adept at using the word 'borrow.' Borrowing momentum, borrowing strength, and even borrowing a knife to kill."

"Nan Yimu possesses a secret technique called: Thousand-Year Wood. Simply put, it's about setting up an incomplete feng shui array and then letting it take effect after many years!"

I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, "Is that possible?"

"It is possible!" Ye Yang picked up the teacup on the table and said, "For example, this is a tree. This year, it's only this tall, and it doesn't affect the overall situation no matter where it's placed. After many years, when it grows into a towering tree, it will affect the feng shui of the area."

"This tree may be the array node that Nan Yimu set up one day, except that the array node doesn't take effect at the beginning of the array!"

Feng Ruoxing couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, "Doesn't that mean that Thousand-Year Wood has to calculate exactly how much the tree grows every year?"

Ye Yang said in a deep voice, "More than that, sometimes Nan Yimu can even calculate the specific time of river changes and mountain shifts. Nan Yimu's ability to dominate the art world relies on these secret techniques."

Feng Ruoxing still shook his head and said, "What you said are all inanimate objects. Calculating inanimate objects isn't anything special. Zero, Lao Liu, including Li Po, can figure it out as long as they put their minds to it."

"But people are living beings. Can they accurately calculate what two spirits will be doing in decades or even centuries?"

"Yes!" Ye Yang affirmed, "Nan Yimu has such abilities. And he has calculated it accurately more than once."

Feng Ruoxing was shocked, "Nan Yimu is too amazing!"

I waved my hand and said, "There's nothing surprising about this. Besides Nan Yimu, others have done it too. Isn't Yuan Tiangang the ancestor in this field?"

According to legend, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, the master and disciple, once competed in choosing their own burial sites, and it wasn't until a thousand years later that Yuan Tiangang was seen as superior.

Legend has it that the burial site chosen by Li Chunfeng was not far from Yuan Tiangang's, but it was superior in terms of feng shui. Yuan Tiangang's Daoist attendant even complained that his master's burial site was not as good as the other, but Yuan Tiangang said, "We'll see the difference after a hundred years."

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and wars broke out everywhere. The location of Yuan Tiangang's tomb was extremely suitable for building a military camp. The government army built the barracks on Yuan Tiangang's tomb.

Coincidentally, Yuan Tiangang's tomb was within the barracks, while Li Chunfeng's tomb was outside the military camp. Although the distance was not far, Li Chunfeng's tomb was frequently visited by tomb robbers, who stole everything clean. Yuan Tiangang's tomb, however, was preserved because of the military camp built on top of it.

Interestingly, in the thousands of years that followed, whenever there was war in the world, someone would build a military camp on Yuan Tiangang's tomb, and the tomb was preserved time and time again. Until after the founding of the country, the military still built a radar station there.

Yuan Tiangang's tomb has thus become the most complete tomb preserved from the Tang Dynasty to the present.

I said, "The reason why Yuan Tiangang was able to surpass Li Chunfeng is not to say that Li Chunfeng didn't have the ability to surpass his master, but rather that Yuan Tiangang considered things beyond feng shui. Nan Yimu is the same."

"To put it bluntly, even without Xie Yueling, those two great immortals could build a public cemetery. If they want to get back their belongings, they have to be led by the nose."

"Why does the Red Fox insist on forcing us to cooperate with him? To put it bluntly, he wants us to help him get back what he wants."

Ye Yang didn't argue with me but continued, "I've thought of this too. But I think Nan Yimu has even bigger plans."

"I can be sure that Longwan Cemetery and Mingshi Mansion are two opposing feng shui arrays. It's just that they haven't been connected yet. It's still missing an opportunity."

Ye Yang looked out the window, "I suspect that opportunity is on us."

I could feel that Ye Yang was very afraid of Nan Yimu. This had never happened to Ye Yang before. Even when we faced ghosts and gods, I had never seen Ye Yang hesitate even half a point. This time, Ye Yang was worried!

This isn't like him!

Since Ye Yang is worried that he can't beat Nan Yimu, then I'll just uproot that Nan Yimu for him!

I already had murderous intentions in my heart, but I said calmly on my face, "Leng Gou, you're making Nan Yimu too godlike. No one in this world can accurately predict a hundred years. Even if that Mu Wenmin is a disciple of Nan Yimu, can he predict when we'll come to Mingshi Mansion?"

"Even if Nan Yimu left behind some secret technique, it doesn't necessarily mean that we'll stumble."

Ye Yang's voice sank slightly, "You don't understand how terrifying Nan Yimu is!"

I also laughed, "I think you've been scared by some Nan Yimu. Forget it, leave this to me, you go back first. So as not to be a hindrance here."

Ye Yang's face suddenly turned ugly, "Li Po! You..."

"Don't you me!" I said in a deep voice, "Either you go back quickly, or you sit here properly."

When Feng Ruoxing heard that our tone was wrong, he quickly said, "Li Po, say a few words less! Ye Yang is also..."

"Also what? You don't need to speak for him!" I turned my face and said, "If he doesn't leave, then you stay here, I'll leave! I want to see if a person who's been scared out of his wits can trap Mingshi Mansion."
