Chapter 82: The Golden Cicada Breaks the Game
Early the next morning, Bai Chen returned to the vicinity of the Zijin Garden project to observe the feng shui.
The area had already been sealed off by people from the judicial office with white tape.
They were getting involved to investigate this matter as well.
However, Bai Chen didn’t want these ordinary people to interfere, fearing it might disturb him.
After Bai Chen greeted Su You Wei, the members of the judicial office began to leave.
Once they departed, the ordinary people dared not approach any closer, afraid of getting touched by the black mist.
Bai Chen spent the morning investigating near the Zijin Garden and finally figured out the problem.
“How interesting, it turns out to be a trapped dragon killing formation!”
Bai Chen stood quietly at the entrance of the Zijin Garden project, looking into the distance.
The reason he said the Zijin Garden had a good location was that it was surrounded by three malls with significant foot traffic.
These three malls formed a shape that enclosed the Zijin Garden like a triangle.
If the Zijin Garden project were successfully completed, it would undoubtedly become the largest mall in the area.
However, Bai Chen also sensed something was amiss.
The Zijin Garden originally had excellent feng shui, attracting wealth and treasures.
But now, that feng shui was continuously being directed toward those three malls around it.
While observing the three malls, he noticed that each main entrance had a stone lion placed there.
These stone lions all faced the Zijin Garden.
“So someone has played tricks here; I thought the evil energy couldn’t be triggered!”
Bai Chen narrowed his eyes, realizing that someone was targeting the Zijin Garden project.
As noon approached, Nan Yue Ran arrived at the Zijin Garden after resting, ready to help Bai Chen.
Behind her were Nan Xuan Fei and several other members of the Nan family who insisted on tagging along.
They came to see if Bai Chen could resolve the issues here.
"Bai Chen, have you found the problem?"
Bai Chen nodded.
"I’ve found the problem, and I have a solution."
At that moment, Nan Xuan Fei couldn’t help but laugh.
“Then tell us what the problem is! Don’t make things up! Otherwise, what if you can’t solve it?”
“A perfectly good project wasted in your hands!”
Bai Chen gave Nan Xuan Fei a faint glance, ignoring her.
“Yue Ran, which family owns the three malls surrounding Zijin Garden?”
Nan Yue Ran was surprised to hear Bai Chen’s question.
Could the problems with the Zijin Garden project be related to the surrounding malls?
“It’s the Yang Family.”
“And they just acquired them recently.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Chen suddenly understood.
“Just as I thought! The Yang Family really knows how to play their cards!”
Hearing Bai Chen’s cold words, Nan Yue Ran felt puzzled.
“What does this have to do with the Yang Family?”
Nan Xuan Fei chimed in with mockery.
“I say, Bai Chen, don’t pin every problem on the Yang Family!”
“I know you have a conflict with Young Master Xiao Tian, but that doesn’t mean you should make up such an outrageous reason.”
“The Yang Family hasn’t even set foot in your Zijin Garden, so how can you say the problems are related to them?”
Bai Chen shot a cold glance at Nan Xuan Fei.
“If you can’t see the problem, then just stay quiet! No one thinks you’re a mute!”
At Bai Chen’s words, Nan Xuan Fei’s face turned bright red.
“Fine then! I’ll just watch to see what trick you pull next!”
“What a petty man! Always blaming the Yang Family for everything!”
Nan Yue Ran looked at Bai Chen with some confusion.
But being wise, she quickly understood.
“Is it about the three malls?”
Bai Chen smiled slightly and nodded.
“The Yang Family acquired those three malls and placed stone lions facing our Zijin Garden at their entrances.”
“I just noticed that the eyes of those stone lions are all broken.”
“Since ancient times, stone lions have been used to ward off evil; now that their eyes are broken, they can’t see anything, which instead gathers the evil energy.”
“When the evil energy increases, it forms a conflict, and the three stone lions create a triangular formation, which is the trapped dragon formation.”
“This is what caused our Zijin Garden project to fall into a trapped dragon situation; once that evil energy senses human presence, it will attack.”
Hearing Bai Chen’s cryptic explanation, Nan Yue Ran felt lost.
She didn’t understand these things and thought Bai Chen sounded mysterious.
Beside her, Nan Xuan Fei laughed hard, unable to stand up straight.
“What trapped dragon and conflict nonsense! I think you’re just daydreaming!”
“If it really is as you say, what ability do you have to solve it?”
“Older sister, don’t believe him. I think he’s lost his mind!”
“It’s so ridiculous that a few little stone lions could lead him to think the Yang Family is trying to harm him.”
Nan Xuan Fei laughed without any disguise.
Bai Chen lightly glanced at Nan Xuan Fei.
“Can you shut that foul mouth of yours?”
“You’re ignorant and act like a stray dog, yet you enjoy mocking others.”
“Just watch carefully from now on.”
After saying this, Bai Chen called Xiao Si Yan.
He asked her to prepare a stone statue of a three-legged golden toad.
Then, Bai Chen instructed Xiao Si Yan to contact the construction team from the Fuyuan Chamber of Commerce.
Among those who came to ask for Bai Chen’s help yesterday, there was someone in the stone carving business who had a three-legged golden toad in stock.
Soon, the three-legged golden toad arrived, along with the construction team, looking timid.
Bai Chen looked at the construction workers and said,
“I’ll pay two thousand for a day’s work. Don’t be afraid; I’m here.”
Upon hearing Bai Chen’s words, the fear on the workers’ faces disappeared, replaced by a hint of enthusiasm.
Seeing this, Bai Chen nodded and quickly began directing at the entrance of the Zijin Garden project.
“Dig a fountain here and place the three-legged golden toad on it, facing the sky.”
The construction team quickly began working energetically according to Bai Chen’s instructions.
Nan Xuan Fei looked at the scene and sneered.
“Even now, he’s still playing tricks! It’s really funny!”
“What’s a broken stone good for?”
Nan Yue Ran watched this scene with curiosity.
“Bai Chen, what’s the purpose of doing this?”
Bai Chen smiled slightly at Nan Yue Ran and explained,
“Since they used the trapped dragon evil energy, I naturally must use the golden cicada to break the situation.”
“The golden cicada can help me bring back the wealth and feng shui they absorbed.”
“The three-legged golden toad just corresponds with the three stone lions.”
“The golden cicada facing the sky spewing water will also bring down yang energy to suppress this evil energy.”
“As long as the golden cicada is installed, our wealth and feng shui will not only be restored, but the three malls will also suffer backlash!”
“By the time the Zijin Garden project is completed, it will be even easier to accumulate wealth.”
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Nan Yue Ran nodded, seeming to understand but not quite.
Xiao Si Yan was similarly in confusion; even though she didn’t understand, she would believe whatever Bai Chen said.
Nan Xuan Fei looked at the two with a cold snort and shook her head.
“Truly hopeless! What era is it to still be talking about this?”
Just then, while the construction team was busy, one worker suddenly screamed.
“Ghost! That thing is out again!”
