Chapter 343: Chapter 61_2The boy gently patted his forehead with his hand, the better the Fengshui Formation was arranged here, the more difficult it would be for him to modify it, fearing that it would overdraw again. But since a decision had been made, he would not change it. The advantage was, modifying on the existing basis and utilizing local materials, as long as he designed the blueprint, the construction aspect would be very simple and quick. Li Zhiyuan turned his head to look at Run Sheng, finding Run Sheng peeling and eating a sweet potato. He remembered, on the train, when he bought a baked sweet potato back, Run Sheng was peeling it while feeling it was expensive. "Brother Runsheng, I think the skin of the sweet potato is also tasty." Run Sheng: "In the past when the family had nothing, only sweet potatoes to eat, my grandfather told me not to eat the skin, leave some scraps, to let the days have some prospects. Xiao Yuan, I’m full." Run Sheng came down from the offering table, patted his protruding belly, "Hehe, I can be filled for a long time." "Brother Runsheng, you need to take down or switch positions of the Copper Coin and copper sword on the eaves, or reposition the bricks and stones in the courtyard..." In the corner of the ancestral hall, there were tools used for maintenance, perfect for use, they just needed to be careful not to make too much noise. These tasks were actually just periphery minor tasks, not difficult but time-consuming, let Run Sheng start on them. But the real crucial changes were on those three stone walls, only needed to change the position of a few or even just several stones, this would create a twisting effect. This was not because Li Zhiyuan was very clever, but because of the accomplishments of Qi’s ancestors, they truly managed to strategize like cooking delicacies. Run Sheng picked up the tools and started to get busy. Li Zhiyuan brought a long bench and sat in the center of the hall, closed his eyes, and began to deduce. But just as he started, the boy felt dizzy, and pain also appeared in the corners of his eyes. The last time, he had only shallowly interpreted, reading the jigsaw message left on the three walls, which was intentionally left by others for their descendants, now, he needed to deeply analyze the application of the other party’s technique, surely the difficulty was different. While deducing, Li Zhiyuan felt his "nose running." He didn’t open his eyes, just slid off the chair down to the ground, and continued to deduce. Soon, "tears" also flowed out, yet he still didn’t bother to wipe them. seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Until, his head started to sting painfully, Li Zhiyuan finally felt a bit annoyed. Because the more he deduced, the more unknown mysteries he could perceive. If it were in the past, he would be so happy to jump up, learning a bit daily as if slicing sausages, but now, he felt a bit stuck. Li Zhiyuan opened his eyes, wiped the bloodstain at the corner of his eyes with his clothes, he couldn’t keep deducing blindly like this, he had overestimated himself and underestimated the ancients, he must change his approach, or he might blind himself. Since this place was the ancestral hall, and the walls had also left ancestral teachings, could he not enter using the perspective of Qi’s descendants to try observational learning? This action was similar to taking a shortcut, skipping a lot of logical reasoning, just memorizing formulas, but once he really got into it, Li Zhiyuan suddenly found that this path surprisingly worked. The stones on the three walls in his mind had rearranged into a message, this was clearly, a message left by Qi’s ancestors for excellent descendants. And this "excellence", in fact, was somewhat biased, probably from the perspective of the ancestors, they had early expectations of the descendants’ decline in ability. The new message had three parts, as it was not purely a textual medium, it belonged to something that could be understood but not described. The first message meant, any descendants who could see here could attain a notebook, with the location recorded below it, under a specific brick of the ancestral hall, to be returned after reading, for future generations. The second message was, this place is wonderfully bounded, like real yet false and false yet real, due to this uniqueness, this site was chosen for seclusion, below recorded the methods to lead into that boundary and the directions of exits. The third message was, if the clan encountered difficulties and had to relocate from here, the Feng Shui formation of this place could be changed, with the specific methods recorded below. Li Zhiyuan grinned a bit relievedly, thankfully he had temporarily changed his approach, only then did he discover that the ancestors had already placed the answers here. And it was extremely decisive, whether the descendants actively or were forced to migrate away from here, they could alter the Feng Shui formation here, preventing those who later inhabited the place from benefiting, or even performing a frightful curse on those who usurped the place. But obviously, Qi’s descendants didn’t do this, not sure if because the event occurred suddenly back then, or the descendants were too substandard to even reach "excellence", unable to see the message left by the ancestors. Li Zhiyuan called Run Sheng over, and following the recorded directions, selected a brick, motioning for Run Sheng to pry it out. Run Sheng jabbed a small spade into it, then pressed down with his hand, quickly loosening and removing the brick, then continued to dig downward, retrieving a box. Li Zhiyuan opened the box with excitement, then frowned, the box... was empty. This must have been taken by someone, and the person who took it didn’t put it back, and most likely it was taken by one of Qi’s descendants, who did not follow the ancestral wishes, letting the family’s descendants rely on their abilities to earn the right to read this notebook. It could only be said, ancestors had their perspective, descendants had their reality. This notebook, either later got lost with Qi’s demise, or might possibly be buried in a nearby hill in a Qi family’s grave.
