Hua Yi Xia Li

Chapter 73 Being Calculated Against

After chatting with Lin Xuan for a while about the 'Beauty Enhancing Pill', Long Xiao told her that he would be away for two or three days. A friend's family had encountered some problems, and he wanted to go and help.

"You're going to treat people again, Long Xiao. The medical skills you learned before you were five, how can you casually use them to save people? Someone could die."

Long Xiao had promised not to treat people, so he kept all matters of healing from Lin Xuan.

Accidentally letting it slip, Long Xiao quickly said, "Wife, it's not about treating illnesses. It's their house's feng shui that's gone wrong, and they want me to take a look."

Hearing Long Xiao say he was going to look at feng shui, Lin Xuan asked, "Do you understand feng shui? Going to look at it, what if something goes wrong?"

"Wife, yin and yang feng shui are all tricks. How can anything go wrong? Actually, I'm going with him just to give him some psychological comfort, to put his mind at ease. Otherwise, if he keeps worrying about it, something will eventually happen."

Lin Xuan thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense. But you remember, don't ever lie. If you know something, you know it. If you don't, don't spout nonsense."

Long Xiao nodded and said, "Don't worry, wife. I've been wandering the martial world since I was born. I know what to say to whom. It's not a problem."

"Could you talk right after you were born? You're talking nonsense. I really don't believe what you're saying."

"Wife, I never lie. Think about it, since you met me, have I ever lied to you?"

Lin Xuan thought about it. Since Long Xiao entered the Lin family, he had diligently washed dishes, scrubbed bowls, and done housework. He rarely spoke, and he had never lied.

"Alright, I believe you. Be careful when you go out this time. Call me every day to let me know you're safe."

Lin Xuan felt that although she wasn't with Long Xiao every day recently, when she didn't see him, she actually missed him and worried about him encountering trouble outside.

Long Xiao smiled and leaned closer to Lin Xuan, saying, "Wife, are you worried about me? How about I sleep in your room?"

Lin Xuan glared at Long Xiao and said, "Dream on. We'll talk about it when you meet my Prince Charming standards."

Long Xiao looked at Lin Xuan leaving with a sense of unwillingness, thinking, when would she truly become his wife?

The next day was a bright and sunny one, with not a cloud in the sky, which was as clean as if it had been washed.

After his morning exercise, Long Xiao returned home for breakfast and received a call from Xue Meiqin. She told Long Xiao that she had arrived downstairs and asked him to hurry down.

After bidding farewell to Lin Xuan, Long Xiao hurried out and went to Xue Meiqin's car.

Xue Meiqin was driving a Rolls-Royce Phantom today. The lowest price for such a car was over nine hundred thousand yuan, and with a slight increase in configuration, it could exceed a million.

Xue Meiqin got out of the car, opened the passenger door for Long Xiao, and made a gesture, saying, "Please get in, boss."

Long Xiao chuckled and said, "Excellent service, an extra star."

After Long Xiao got into the car, Xue Meiqin also got in and said, "Boss, given my excellent service attitude, why don't we end our bet?"

Long Xiao glared at Xue Meiqin and said, "Ugly people have sweet dreams. Free labor is not to be wasted. I wouldn't be so foolish as to agree to cancel the bet."

Xue Meiqin snorted and said, "Stingy man. I'll never open the door for you again."

As Long Xiao walked out of the Lin residence, Lin Xuan felt uneasy and wanted to see him off. Just as she reached the door, she saw Xue Meiqin opening the car door for Long Xiao.

Xue Meiqin was a stunning beauty. Seeing her, Lin Xuan felt a hundred times displeased. Long Xiao knew such a beautiful woman outside, and she didn't even know about it.

Watching Xue Meiqin respectfully bow to Long Xiao, Lin Xuan felt a prick in her heart. What was their relationship? Had the Lin family treated him too poorly, causing him to have rebellious thoughts and deliberately find a beautiful woman to provoke her?

Watching Xue Meiqin drive away, Lin Xuan thought a lot, feeling very uncomfortable.

Long Xiao called Brother Hu of Xicheng and arranged to meet at the highway entrance.

The car arrived at the highway entrance and waited for a few minutes before Brother Hu's Phaeton from Xicheng arrived. Long Xiao waved at him, signaling him to lead the way.

The two cars entered the highway one after the other. Near noon, they exited the highway and entered a small county town. After lunch, they drove for another hour and arrived at a small town.

The town was not large, with only one main street running north and south. At the end of the street, there were low hills on both sides, and a road running east-west passed through the town.

As the car entered the town, it drove along the east-west street for less than ten minutes before stopping at a small villa at the foot of a small mountain.

The gatekeeper at the villa saw Brother Hu of Xicheng peeking out from the car window and quickly opened the large iron gate.

With a series of barks, four fierce Tibetan Mastiffs rushed out and barked furiously at the two cars.

Brother Hu of Xicheng got out of the car, and the four Tibetan Mastiffs immediately fell silent. He patted the heads of the four mastiffs, and they led him into the villa.

The two cars followed into the villa. Brother Hu of Xicheng opened the car door for Long Xiao and said, "The local customs here are fierce, so for safety, I keep a few dogs."

Following Brother Hu of Xicheng into the main building of the villa, they saw a middle-aged man in his thirties leaning on the sofa, smiling at them.

"Brother, I'm back. I've invited a divine doctor for you this time. He can definitely cure your injuries."

Brother Hu of Xicheng often invited doctors home to treat Ah Long, who had become accustomed to it.

"Ah Hu, my injuries are too severe. It's a miracle I'm still alive. No one can cure me, so don't bother others."

"Don't worry, brother. Brother Long is a truly rare divine doctor in the world. Even Li Yizhen, the divine doctor of Donghai, has become his disciple."

"Really? The divine doctor of Donghai is his disciple? It seems his medical skills are indeed extraordinary."

Brother Hu of Xicheng politely asked Long Xiao and the others to sit down. He personally brewed tea for the two of them and brought it over.

"Divine Doctor Long, sorry for the trouble," Ah Long said politely.

Long Xiao smiled and said, "It's no trouble. Your injuries are easy to treat, but your villa has some problems."

Brother Hu of Xicheng knew that Long Xiao was an expert in metaphysics. Hearing him say the villa had problems, he quickly asked, "Brother Long, has someone tampered with this villa?"

Long Xiao nodded and said, "Presumably. This villa was not built long ago, was it?"

Brother Hu of Xicheng grunted and said, "It was completed three years ago. My brother has been living here for over two years."

Long Xiao stood up and said, "Let's look at the villa first. This villa is a grand formation for gathering malevolent energy. Your brother's injuries are due to constant exposure to this malevolent energy, so even the most skilled divine doctor cannot cure him."

Long Xiao and Brother Hu of Xicheng left the main building of the villa and walked around the courtyard, then circled the villa's perimeter wall.

Returning to the villa's courtyard, Long Xiao pointed to a room upstairs and said, "The malevolent energy enters through the door and all gathers in that room. Is that room your brother's bedroom?"

Brother Hu of Xicheng nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, Brother Long is right. My brother lives in that room."

"This layout should be considered 'Two Tigers Gathering Malevolent Energy'. These two pools are the two tiger mouths. The person who designed and built this villa was an expert. This kind of layout is easily mistaken for 'Two Masters Dancing Together'."

Brother Hu of Xicheng nodded vigorously again and said, "Yes, yes. The Taoist priest who designed and built the villa for me also said that this villa is a 'Two Masters Dancing Together' layout, which is very beneficial to us brothers."

"Find that Taoist priest and ask him who is plotting against you brothers from behind."

Brother Hu of Xicheng sighed and shook his head, saying, "He was a wandering Taoist priest. I only know his name is Tian Xuanzi, and he cultivates on that mountain. I don't know anything else."
