Chapter 162: Chapter 161: Acupoint Targeting is Like Adding Pupils to a Painting ... "Brother Bao, what do you think?" Tang Wenjun asked nervously, "Is this okay? If not, I’ll have someone tear it down and rebuild." Yan Xiaobao looked at the black-and-white checkerboard floor and murmured, "Doesn’t seem all that great, huh..." "I also feel like the color contrast is too intense," Qian Jiale echoed beside Tang Wenjun. Tang Wenjun felt similarly, but this was constructed according to Yan Xiaobao’s instructions, so he didn’t feel right about complaining. Dong Yuqing interjected, "The black-and-white marble is meant to form the foundational energy field for the Fengshui Formation. It doesn’t necessarily have to be shown. If you want it to look prettier, you could lay another layer of tiles on top of this floor." "Is that okay?" Tang Wenjun immediately asked Yan Xiaobao. "If Wife Qingqing says it’s okay, then of course it’s okay." Yan Xiaobao threw Dong Yuqing a flirtatious smile, causing her to turn her head aside. "Alright then, I’ll hire a renovation company to redesign it," Tang Wenjun said happily. Having spent so much money constructing such a large estate, naturally, he wanted the most perfect outcome. "Don’t touch this pool," Yan Xiaobao instructed, then added, "Bring me the Yin Yang Origin Bead and Fish Token." Tang Wenjun personally ran into the villa and came out holding a wooden box. Inside the box, two smooth, glossy stone beads were padded with silk and carefully separated. Yan Xiaobao picked up one of the beads, twisting it with both hands in opposite directions. To everyone’s astonishment, the once-solid stone bead separated cleanly down the middle, as if it had been split with a blade. Their eyes widened in disbelief. Nima, this was marble, a stone bead! Yet in Yan Xiaobao’s hands, it seemed to behave more like tofu... "Fish Token," Yan Xiaobao extended his hand toward Tang Wenjun, "And bring me a carving knife." With the Fish Token and carving knife in hand, Yan Xiaobao measured them briefly before using the knife to carve two fish-shaped grooves at the center of the split bead. He then casually placed one of the Fish Tokens into the groove, which fit perfectly, without the slightest gap. Next, he used the bio-adhesive prepared by Tang Wenjun to glue the two halves of the bead back together. This type of bio-adhesive had extremely strong bonding strength and contained no artificial chemicals, ensuring no corrosion of the stone. The other bead and Fish Token were treated in the same fashion. The Fish Token was split, with the side without text representing yin and the side with text representing yang. Yin paired with yin, yang paired with yang, each fitted into the corresponding Yin Yang Origin Bead. "What’s next?" Qian Jiale asked curiously, "Do we identify two points within the Tai Chi Diagram on the pool, drill two holes, and then embed the beads inside?" "Exactly," Yan Xiaobao nodded. "That simple?" Qian Jiale wondered aloud, suddenly feeling like setting up a Fengshui Formation wasn’t all that difficult after all. "Simple?" Dong Yuqing responded solemnly, "Outsiders watch for fun; insiders know the intricacies. Finding the two points within the Tai Chi Diagram is akin to acupuncture in Fengshui Technique—it’s the most critical aspect that determines the success or failure of the entire formation." "Oh, so it’s like adding the finishing touch to a dragon," Qian Jiale and Tang Wenjun nodded in understanding. "Exactly. As you might know, in the Tai Chi Diagram, the black half contains a white dot, and the white half contains a black dot. These two points symbolize yin within yang and yang within yin, the mutual cycle of yin and yang, and the perpetuation of balance. They are as crucial as the eyes on a Divine Dragon," Dong Yuqing explained while closely examining the pool built on the Tai Chi Diagram. "At the very least, I wouldn’t dare claim to pinpoint those original Tai Chi points accurately." While the three spoke, Yan Xiaobao held a piece of chalk, walking leisurely around the pool with his hands behind his back. His relaxed demeanor gave the impression he was simply strolling in a garden. Dong Yuqing continued in a soft voice, "The shape of a mountain mirrors the shape of a person; pinpointing an acupuncture spot is akin to applying makeup—it requires absolute precision. Even the slightest deviation can render all prior efforts futile. ’A miss by a millimeter can lead to an error of a thousand miles.’ This idiom originates from Fengshui Acupoint Technique. To achieve pinpoint accuracy with no deviation, it all depends on the Fengshui Master’s level of expertise." "I see..." Tang Wenjun and Qian Jiale seemed to have learned a lot, watching Yan Xiaobao’s movements intently. Dong Yuqing also observed Yan Xiaobao closely, secretly in awe. Generally, when Fengshui Masters pinpoint locations, they do so with utmost caution, studying their Compasses from multiple angles with the seriousness of walking on thin ice. Yet Yan Xiaobao looked completely relaxed, as if he were playing a game rather than taking care of serious business. "This is the spot." With that, Yan Xiaobao casually tossed aside his chalk, leaving a white mark on the black marble. Dong Yuqing froze in slight disbelief. Most Fengshui Masters could spend half a day just pinpointing a single location, yet Yan Xiaobao... had finished in two or three minutes? "So fast?" Qian Jiale exclaimed in surprise, "I thought it was supposed to be really difficult..." "..." Dong Yuqing couldn’t explain. She carefully studied the white mark Yan Xiaobao had left on the floor and, after a moment, revealed a bitter smile. With her expertise, she had to admit that Yan Xiaobao’s placement was flawless, like the perfect finishing touch to a dragon’s painting. Ancient poets often described beauty with the phrase "Add one ounce and it’s too plump; subtract one ounce and it’s too slim." Similarly, the mark placed by Yan Xiaobao was exquisitely balanced, with no room for error—like it inherently belonged there. Any slight adjustment would’ve been wrong. Deep down, Dong Yuqing asked herself honestly: if she were the one executing this task, could she achieve the same effortless precision as Yan Xiaobao? The answer was definitely not... Dong Yuqing gave an honest reply in her heart. If the task were reversed, even assuming she could find the same perfect spot, she might spend hours agonizing over it—and still wouldn’t achieve Yan Xiaobao’s ease and confidence. Yan Xiaobao’s mastery of Fengshui Technique left Dong Yuqing profoundly impressed once again. "Call the workers over," Yan Xiaobao gestured, "Using this point as the center, cut a hole that precisely fits the Yin Yang Origin Bead and embed half of the Pure Yang Origin Bead inside." Tang Wenjun snapped out of his awe and quickly arranged for several workers to follow Yan Xiaobao’s instructions. "Wait..." Dong Yuqing suddenly said, puzzled, "You’ve only marked the black side of pure yin within the Tai Chi Diagram—there’s still pure yang on the white side. One black and one white, one yin and one yang, both must be pinpointed for full symmetry." ... [Please bookmark, recommend, support, and reward us!] ...
