Half-believing and half-doubting

  Half-believing and half-doubting

  Although Old Ye's heart was racing, his face wore a natural and calm smile, as if he had many secrets up his sleeve. Anyway, in Wu Kun's eyes, Old Ye's smile seemed to have a deeper meaning.

  "Boss Wu, you know that as feng shui masters traveling the world, we point out ways to dispel disasters for others. My disciple's suggestion of using the 'Fire Burning Prosperity' method may have a significant effect, but it also has its drawbacks. Because the effect is too strong, the backlash will be severe. This still depends on your decision, Boss Wu."

  Wu Kun took another step forward, drew closer to Old Ye and said in a low, respectful tone: "Please, Master, do not hesitate to enlighten me."

  "Heaven's secret, cannot be revealed!"

  Wu Kun's face turned humble and he changed the subject to a heavenly secret that couldn't be revealed. He shook his head, although he admired Feng Shui very much, but not to the extent of being arrogant enough to burn down his business of over ten years with one move. So, Old Ye and Tang Zhendong's words only passed through Wu Kun's heart and then disappeared without a trace.

  Wu Kun is a businessman, not a fool. Businessmen are known for being astute, and Wu Kun has truly inherited this astuteness.

  On the way back, Old Ye declined Wu Kun's offer to send them back and took a taxi instead. "Xiao Tang, what did you mean by letting him put out the fire? Was it revenge for not letting us take a look at the feng shui first?"

  "Hey, Old Ye, this isn't revenge. Besides, this is our first step into the feng shui business. If I were seeking revenge, wouldn't that be ruining our own rice bowl? Let me tell you, what I told him was fact. His store really does lack fire. Fire can overcome metal, which just so happens to counteract the sharp angle of his storefront's wind and water layout. And Wu Kun, this person, also lacks fire. Fire can give birth to earth, which just so happens to fulfill the meaning of Wu Kun's surname 'Kun'. Most importantly, there's another point: fire burns brighter and stronger, a burning store is one that prospers."

  Although Tang Zhendong explained the matter very clearly to Old Ye, Old Ye seemed to be half-believing and half-doubting of Tang Zhendong's words. If even Old Ye, who was skilled in Feng Shui divination, was half-believing and half-doubting, then Wu Kun would be even less likely to believe him.

  After Wu Kun sent off Lao Ye and Tang Zhendong, he kept thinking about the fire burning down the shop that Tang Zhendong mentioned. However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Tang Zhendong said was unreliable. Who would set their own shop on fire to make business better? No one would believe such a thing!

  Wu Kun shook his head and drove this idea out of his mind. He had too many things to deal with at the moment, and in two days' time, Wang Gang would be coming for his money.

  Wang Gang is the son of Wang Youde, the head of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee. He got married a few days ago, and his bride is a girl from an ordinary family in the suburbs. Wang Youde is a low-key person and has always required his son to be so too. Therefore, Wang Gang did not want to make a big show, so he found a medium-sized wedding planning company near his residential area to arrange the wedding. However, the wedding car broke down halfway through. This delayed the auspicious time, which made Wang Youde very angry, because although there were not many people present, they were all leaders of the municipal party committee and government, as well as heads of various bureaus, which made the Municipal Party Committee member lose face.

  Wang Youde was furious because of the lost face, while Wang Gang had thoroughly run away. After calling a friend's car to send the bride and himself to the hotel, it had already passed more than ten minutes after the auspicious time, which made Wang Youde, who believed in Feng Shui, think it was extremely unlucky. At the end of the wedding ceremony, he scolded Wang Gang severely. Wang Gang was already angry about this matter, and now he was scolded by his father, so he became even more furious and found Wu Kun's flower gift company.

  Wu Kun, who has been having a streak of bad luck lately, even drinking cold water gets stuck in his teeth. He just invited a feng shui master to take a look and spent the necessary money, but before two days were up, this kind of thing happened, it's really a string of bad luck.

  Wu Kunyan puffed out a mouthful of cigarette smoke and still couldn't think of a good solution.

  After all the employees left, Wu Kun was still in the office smoking desperately, as if this cigarette was his unlucky fate, and burning it would make everything better.

  Wu Kun finished two packs of Nanjing cigarettes on his office desk, and he became as drunk as if he had been drinking wine, his spirit was dizzy, smoking too much can also make people drunk.

  Wu Kun locked up the company's door and dragged his tired spirit back home.

  Tang Zhendong refused Old Ye's invitation to drink together in the evening, parted ways with Old Ye halfway, and returned to his own rental house.

  These days, drinking every day, Tang Zhendong has a feeling that the boxing techniques taught by Li Yuanshan are all going to be forgotten, so Tang Zhendong wants to go back and sober up properly, practice his skills.

  Tang Zhen Dong's qigong practice is very unique. Walking can also be a form of qigong, and this is the exclusive skill of the Gui Gu Xue Pai school. When walking, focus your mind on the dan tian, move with each step, calm the mind, and in the midst of movement and stillness, experience the internal energy contracting and expanding intentionally or unintentionally within the dan tian.

  Intentionally or unintentionally, this is the essence of Guiguzi Neigong. Tang Zhendong had already grasped the essence of Guiguzi Neigong under the guidance of his master Xu Zhuo.

  Tang Zhendong likes walking partly for saving money and partly for practicing qigong.

  Zhao Lili returned home a few days ago and just came back today. She heard the sound of Tang Zhendong coming back and opening the door, so she stuck her head out to take a look, "Brother Zhendong, you're back!"

  "Yes, went back home a few days ago?"

  "Yes, Brother Zhendong, I have something to tell you, have you eaten?"

  "Haven't eaten yet."

  "Zhen Dong, I'm inviting you out for a meal, and by the way, there's something I want to talk to you about."

  "Alright, let's go!" Tang Zhendong hadn't eaten dinner yet either, and he wasn't a stubborn person. Moreover, Zhao Lili was actually a pretty good neighbor, and he had benefited from eating their fruit many times before.

  The two of them sat down at a small restaurant by the village road, "Lili, what's up?"

  "Zhen Dong Ge, I want to thank you. Luckily you reminded me, and I took my dad to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said that coughing up blood and chest and back pain are all early symptoms of lung cancer, which can be easily overlooked, especially for people who work in agriculture. Chest and back pain will be thought of as fatigue from working, and the blood threads in phlegm won't be noticed either. Luckily you told me, and the doctor said that since we found out early, taking medicine and getting treatment is enough, and there's no danger. Zhen Dong Ge, thank you."

  "It's okay, old people should have more medical check-ups. They've suffered all their lives and don't care about themselves, so we as their children should pay more attention."

  "Hmm," Zhao Lili nodded, "Zhen Dong brother, how did you guess that my family has been doing well for the past few years and even guessed that my father had lung problems?" This was something that Zhao Lili had always found very strange. Did Tang Zhen Dong have a sixth sense?

  "Hehe, this is because I'm a fruit seller and often eat the fruits from your house. If it's not a good season, the fruits can't grow so well. Don't forget my profession, what do I do?"

  "Then, was my father's illness also seen from the fruit?" Zhao Lili was somewhat dissatisfied with Tang Zhendong's explanation. After all, Zhao Lili had been out for many years and wasn't inexperienced in many things.

  "Cough cough, this is, older people's bodies aren't very good, smokers' lungs are no good, drinkers' stomachs are no good, isn't this a bit abnormal?"
