Chapter 5 Feng Shui Master
Chapter 5 Feng Shui Master
The three of them galloped along in silence.
When they arrived near Aunt Qiu Sheng's shop, they followed the alley next to it and entered the backyard of the shop:
"Aunt? Aunt, I'm here! Is my seventh uncle really back?"
As soon as he entered the door, Qiu Sheng started shouting and it seemed that he was not at all unfamiliar with his aunt's home.
It's just like going back home.
Seeing Qiu Sheng showing such a casual attitude, Uncle Jiu, who was walking in the middle and preparing to make his final appearance, couldn't help but smile:
"Although Qiu Sheng is not a son, he is better than a son. This can be regarded as a true expression of love."
After all, living under someone else's roof still lacks some confidence, and it is obvious that the aunt really put her heart into raising Qiu Sheng to be like this.
Although these two guys didn't practice very hard, they were a master and disciple, so naturally he took them seriously.
Hearing the loud shouting outside, my aunt started talking directly in the inner hall:
"Stop yelling outside and come in quickly. If you disturb your seventh uncle's rest, I will beat you up today!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Qiu Sheng walked into the inner hall with a smile on his face:
"Hehehehe...Aunt, I knew you were the best to me..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw an old man in a simple robe, leaning on a throne with a rattan stick, and exuding an extraordinary demeanor.
After seeing the old man, Qiu Sheng didn't even wait for his aunt to say anything. He knelt down directly, and knocked his head three times, making muffled sounds on the ground:
"The unfilial son Qiu Sheng pays homage to his seventh uncle!"
Seeing Qiu Sheng's sincere expression, even knocking his head red, Song Feng couldn't help but reveal a trace of relief in his half-opened eyes:
"Good boy, there's no need to be so polite. Come and show your seventh uncle. Hey, you've grown taller and become more handsome. Not bad, really not bad!"
Looking at this familiar shadow, he naturally thought of the child he once held in his arms.
After all, he and his predecessor are the same person, and when he met this rare blood relative, he naturally showed some emotion.
Especially after years of wandering in the spiritual world, he has seen a lot of the darkness of human nature and intrigue. He doesn't have many sincere feelings like this in his life.
Look at the fullness of family love.
Uncle Jiu, who had just solemnly brushed off his robes and stepped into the inner hall with his left foot, was full of envy:
"This brat has always been disrespectful. I thought he had always been like this."
Although I know that they are my relatives, why do I still feel sad?
however.
When Uncle Jiu looked at the old man sitting on the armchair, his eyes narrowed slightly:
"...Hmm? This demeanor..."
Just when he was a little hesitant, Song Feng saw Uncle Jiu walking in.
Then, the brief hint of emotion in his eyes was quickly concealed and turned into a faint smile:
"You are Uncle Jiu, right? Thank you for taking care of Qiu Sheng for so many years. I am truly grateful..."
Looking at the changes in Song Feng's eyes and then looking at his demeanor, the hesitation in Uncle Jiu's eyes became more intense.
However, because his two disciples and Qiu Sheng's aunt were here, Uncle Jiu was very polite and clasped his hands together and smiled slightly:
"No, no, since Qiu Sheng has chosen me as his master, I, as his master, must teach him the principles of how to behave." He paused for a moment, then asked softly:
"I heard that Uncle Seven went out to travel many years ago, and now he has suddenly returned. I wonder if Uncle Seven wants to live in Renjia Town for a long time from now on?"
"It's our first time meeting. May I know your name, Seventh Uncle?"
After hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Song Feng smiled slightly, and seemed to have some emotion:
"I've lived for so many years, how many years have I not heard others call me by my name? If Uncle Nine doesn't mind, just call me Seventh Uncle."
"I call you Uncle Nine, and you call me Uncle Seven. After all, they are respectful titles used by the villagers. Let's talk about our own affairs."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Nine's face darkened. Isn't it obvious which of the two titles, Uncle Nine and Seventh Uncle, is a disadvantage and which is an advantage?
But then, his expression changed:
"A respectful title for villagers? Could it be that Seventh Uncle refers to more than just Qiu Sheng's blood uncle?"
In the past, he always heard Qiu Sheng’s aunt say that if it weren’t for his seventh uncle who had been raising them, they would have starved to death.
If it weren't for my seventh uncle who paid for my aunt to open this shop, they, an orphan and a widow, would have no way to make a living.
Previously, he thought that this seventh uncle was only referring to Qiu Sheng’s biological seventh uncle, but now it seems that there seems to be more hidden secrets.
Moreover, the timing of Seventh Uncle's return seemed a little too coincidental!
Hearing Uncle Jiu's question, the aunt who was standing beside Song Feng and carefully serving him tea rolled her eyes:
"Although Seventh Uncle is Qiu Sheng's relative, who said that the title of Seventh Uncle can only be applied to relatives? Don't the villagers still call you Ninth Uncle?"
"Back then, my seventh uncle was a well-known Feng Shui master in our town. It was with his money that I opened this shop."
"Back then, Uncle Seven's status in our Renjia Town was much higher than yours. He was also one of the three elders in our Renjia Town..."
Hearing the slight impoliteness in his aunt's tone, Uncle Jiu didn't take it too seriously.
After all, there is a professional contempt chain.
Although he is capable and has an extraordinary status in the village, Qiu Sheng and his aunt also live a good life.
They were considered upper class people because they could open a big shop in the center of town and get a bicycle which was hard to get even in the provincial capital in that era.
He has nothing to do with his aunt, so he doesn't care what the other party says about him, but Qiu Sheng is his apprentice, so he can naturally care.
"... Was Seventh Uncle a Feng Shui master in the past?"
Hearing this, Uncle Jiu's expression changed again, and then he asked back with some uncertainty:
"Could it be that Seventh Uncle has been away for twenty years? Was it Seventh Uncle who pointed out Ren Weiyong's dragonfly-diving acupoint?"
Twenty years ago, Ren Yong threatened the Feng Shui master and robbed him of his treasured spot, the Dragonfly Touching Water.
The Feng Shui master also did something dirty and sprinkled cement on the Dragonfly Water Point, destroying the convenience of this precious point.
Twenty years later, Ren Fa followed the Feng Shui master's advice to move the grave, and the former Feng Shui master came back after Ren Weiyong turned into a zombie and gained weight.
All of this is too coincidental. When so many coincidences are combined together, it is no longer a coincidence but a necessity!
Thinking of this, Uncle Jiu's eyes became much sharper when he looked at Song Feng!
