Chapter 283: Running Counter To The Truth! Research On Feng Shui Ornaments!
After Chen Han uploaded the information from the USB drive online, that news was undoubtedly a thunderbolt.
Qingmin City First Hospital.
Ma San and the others had already undergone surgery and were now all being guarded in the hospital ward.
After their surgeries were completed, Zheng Ruixin came to take a look.
However, he did not devote much thought to Ma San and the others, but was instead wondering whether the Chen Family Head had properly appeased that old daoist priest.
If that person took action, the consequences would be extremely severe.
He still held the same view: if that old daoist priest really made a move, it absolutely must not be in Qingmin City.
Just then, a person in charge hurried over to Zheng Ruixin and reported, “Mr. Zheng, something big has happened online.”
Zheng Ruixin frowned. “We still do not know what is going on with the Chen Clan over there. How can we have the mind to care about what is happening online?”
The person in charge quickly said, “Mr. Zheng, what is happening online seems to be related to our matter.”
Zheng Ruixin was stunned for a moment, then immediately took out his mobile phone to go online and check. When he saw the information Chen Han had uploaded, he could not help widening his eyes.
This would definitely stir up a great storm.
The person in charge said with emotion, “To even obtain this kind of information, that hacker god is really incredible.”
Zheng Ruixin nodded. Understanding the situation, he knew that trying to cover it up would only be like covering one’s ears while stealing a bell; it would be better to quickly resolve the matter.
When he heard the words “hacker god,” he suddenly recalled the previous incident in Myanmar.
People online had said that the information was leaked by a super hacker, even giving him the nickname “hacker god.”
Many people online greatly admired this hacker god.
But he was very clear about what the so-called hacker god really was. Those things on the internet had been sent out by that old daoist priest of the Chen Clan.
Was this situation now not exactly the same as last time?
Thinking of this, he hurried to check the organization’s members and quickly saw Ma San’s name. The photo and identity information all matched, along with the cases the man had committed; the evidence was conclusive.
He could almost be certain: what hacker god? It was simply the Chen Clan’s old daoist priest.
Obviously, after the Chen Family Head and the others returned to the Chen Clan, that old daoist priest learned what had happened in Qingmin City.
The other party had already taken action, and must have dealt with the relevant people; otherwise, he could not have obtained this information.
That Old Daoist Priest Chen of the Chen Clan truly repaid every slight and protected his own to the extreme.
He did not know how many people would die this time, nor whether it would happen in Qingmin City.
Thinking of this, he looked worried and ordered the person in charge beside him, “Quickly, investigate whether any major incident has occurred in the Qingmin Region.”
“???” The person in charge was clearly stunned.
What major incident could happen in the Qingmin Region?
If there were, the whole city would probably already know.
However, since this man had given the order, he could only take out his mobile phone and start dialing numbers one by one, instructing people to investigate.
Not long after, replies came in from all over. He then reported to this man, “Mr. Zheng, throughout the entire Qingmin Region, apart from the Chen Clan defeating Habak, nothing major has happened. It is completely peaceful.”
“No, absolutely not right…” After hearing this, Zheng Ruixin muttered to himself.
If that old daoist priest of the Chen Clan took retaliation, there was no way things would be peaceful. It would surely be a bloody storm.
While he was puzzled, a man in a suit walked in and entered the ward.
In the ward.
When Ma San saw the newcomer, he immediately became excited. “Lawyer Zeng, you finally came. I want to sue that Chen Family Head of the Chen Clan for causing us serious injury, and also sue them for harboring. We must leave now and go home.”
The backup arrangement had finally arrived.
With a lawyer, his accusations would surely make these people scruple.
He believed he could leave.
After hearing this, Lawyer Zeng also took out his lawyer’s license and questioned the police officer in charge: “Excuse me, my client has been seriously injured. Where is the culprit? Are you harboring the culprit…”
“We absolutely will not harbor the culprit, unlike some lawyers who dare to take any case for money.” Zheng Ruixin walked into the ward and directly cut him off.
At the same time, he looked coldly at Ma San. “Take a look at what is happening online first. Don’t think you can leave. The sewing machine factory is your final destination.”
These words left Ma San and the other man stunned. Lawyer Zeng immediately took out his mobile phone to check online, then looked at Ma San; his expression grew grave.
“What is it?” Ma San sensed something was wrong and asked instinctively.
Lawyer Zeng sighed, handed the mobile phone screen to Ma San, and on it was playing a video, precisely the one that Chen Han had exposed online.
“No… how could this be…” Ma San’s eyes widened in utter disbelief.
He knew Brother Long definitely held evidence on them, as well as leverage over those court officials.
But this was organizational secrecy. Brother Long could not possibly have leaked this information.
Unless something had happened to Brother Long.
That news terrified him even more.
Brother Long had always been cautious, and on the high seas cruise ship he had guards at his side. How could something have gone wrong?
It was not only Ma San and Zheng Ruixin; people online who saw the news and information were also equally shocked.
The museum matter had been exposed before, but that curator had sworn that the items were genuine, and several experts had vouched for him.
In the end, the matter faded away and the whistleblower vanished without a trace.
Now there was already a video online of that curator being arrested.
There were also scenes of those experts being invited for “tea.” One expert was even taken away right in front of everyone while boasting arrogantly in public.
This made everyone admire that hacker god even more.
Look at the shocking impact he had caused with just two actions.
Many people even began to give this hacker god a new nickname: “Hacker Judge”!
After all, each of his revelations amounted to the judgment of a large group of people.
Naturally, this also led to the hacker god being targeted by the network department in the capital city.
There was no help for it. The things that the hacker god had exposed twice in a row were too abrupt, giving no one any time to prepare.
So if they could bring such a hacker under control, his skills would definitely be something they could use.
Like these two rounds of revelations, they could first be in their hands, then be handled steadily, without causing a storm all over the internet.
And Zhong Hou was tasked with finding this Hacker Judge.
Because they were prepared, as soon as this information was uploaded, he began tracing the address from which it had been posted.
After IP tracking and analysis, a team member frowned and said, “Minister Zhong, the trace has ended. It is at a location on the high seas. There is a signal receiving device there, on a cruise ship. The cruise ship is currently heading toward Little Japan and will reach it very soon.”
“Little Japan!” Zhong Hou’s brows immediately furrowed.
If this Hacker Judge was on that cruise ship and heading to Little Japan, could it be connected with the forces over there?
Clearly, he had no idea that his investigation was running completely counter to the truth.
…
The Chen Clan.
More than a dozen Feng Shui Stones had already been moved into the hall in Chen Han’s attic.
Chen Han did not pay much attention to what was happening online, because he knew that once he uploaded that information, the internet would certainly be in an uproar.
After the people delivering the Feng Shui Stones left the courtyard, he closed the hall door and began examining these Feng Shui Stones,
trying to store one Feng Shui Stone into the game warehouse to check the information:
【Feng Shui Stone(Fake): this is a Feng Shui Stone created through artificial enhancement processing and has no Feng Shui effect.】
“???” Chen Han was stunned when he saw this remark information.
This was an ill omen right from the start?
He suddenly had a very bad premonition.
Putting this fake Feng Shui Stone back out, he stored another Feng Shui Stone in the game warehouse.
【Feng Shui Stone(Fake): this is a Feng Shui Stone produced through acid wash processing and has no Feng Shui effect!】
“…” Chen Han felt his bad premonition had come true.
The first two Feng Shui Stones were both fake.
But the key point was that these Feng Shui Stones even had commercial qualification certificates.
This was really maddening. There was no way to complain.
Of course. People in the outside world did not even understand Feng Shui, so how could they understand Feng Shui Stones, let alone produce real ones?
Besides, whether a Feng Shui Stone was up to standard was decided by another group of people who also knew nothing about Feng Shui.
Truly infuriating.
These people who did not understand Feng Shui plus people who did not understand Feng Shui had created a Feng Shui business, passed by review and approval. What could you expect?
The business qualification certificates and the like were probably all obtained over drinking at banquets.
Chen Han continued to inspect the remaining Feng Shui Stones and in the end found that only one Feng Shui Stone was genuine.
【Feng Shui Stone(Ordinary(: this is an ordinary Feng Shui Stone that can be used to make some ordinary Feng Shui ornaments to change the Feng Shui pattern of a small environment, but it cannot be used to arrange a Feng Shui formation.】
It was indeed a Feng Shui Stone, but unfortunately its quality was obviously insufficient for arranging a Feng Shui formation.
Chen Han was a bit troubled.
He had originally thought that by ordering some Feng Shui Stones online he could easily meet the requirement for arranging the Feng Shui formation.
Only now did he realize that the requirement of five Feng Shui Stones seemed simple, but was not simple at all.
Just like now, if he continued to order Feng Shui Stones online, the final result might be the same as this time: either fake, or unusable for a Feng Shui formation.
So he had to think of a method.
He thought of the palace temples of the Daoist Sect.
Those places generally had mysterious stones, such as Sanyuan Daoist Temple, Qinglong Temple, Wudang… in these places, the mountains were full of mysterious stones.
Especially Wudang, with its seventy-two peaks and countless mysterious stones in the mountains.
Most of these mysterious stones were located in celebrated scenic spots, bathed in the essence of sun and moon, suitable to serve as Feng Shui Stones.
So he could seek help from Wudang.
With that in mind, he dialed the number of Daoist Priest Chen of Wudang again.
Wudang.
When Daoist Priest Chen received the call, he and Sect Leader Qing Wei and the others were on a mountaintop, watching the Golden Summit in the distance.
This was also one of the seventy-two peaks. By studying the Feng Shui books written by the Chen Family Head, they had roughly realized that there was a problem in the momentum between this peak and the Golden Summit.
But they could only tell that the problem lay here; standing at this position, they could feel it more clearly.
They did not know the specific cause.
One daoist priest could not help saying, “Our talent is limited. Perhaps we can ask the Chen Family Head for help and have him come see what went wrong with our Thunder Fire Refining Golden Summit.”
Qingwei Daoist Priest nodded. “That is indeed a method. We could even invite daoist priests from other Daoist Sect palaces to hold an exchange meeting and pool wisdom. After all, those daoist priests should also be studying Feng Shui. We cannot shut ourselves away and work behind closed doors.”
Another daoist priest said, “We just do not know whether the Chen Family Head will attend. If he does not, this exchange meeting might lose much of its brilliance.”
At that moment, Daoist Priest Chen’s mobile phone ringtone sounded. Seeing the number, he immediately said, “It is the Chen Family Head.”
This made the daoist priests look at one another. Speak of the devil and he appears.
Daoist Priest Chen pressed answer and put it on speaker. The voice of the Chen Family Head came through. “Daoist Priest Chen, I have a favor to ask. Recently I have been studying Feng Shui formations and have now gotten to Feng Shui Stones, so I would like to request some Feng Shui Stones from Wudang.”
Upon hearing this, Qingwei Daoist Priest and the others’ eyes all lit up. They hurriedly nodded at Daoist Priest Chen.
If Daoist Priest Chen was studying Feng Shui, that meant he should also be interested in their Wudang Thunder Fire Alchemy Peak Formation.
With so many Wudang mysterious stones, using them as Feng Shui Stones would be no problem. Now that the Chen Family Head needed Feng Shui Stones, Wudang could naturally prepare many for him.
Then in the future, if they invited him to take part in a Wudang Thunder Fire Refining Golden Summit Feng Shui formation exchange meeting, he probably would not refuse.
Understanding the intentions of the sect leader and senior brothers, Daoist Priest Chen smiled and said into the phone, “Chen Family Head, that is no problem. I will have people arrange it immediately and send many Feng Shui Stones over to you.”
On the other side, after receiving Daoist Priest Chen’s reply, Chen Han had achieved his goal, though he still felt the other party had agreed a bit too quickly.
But being able to receive help from Wudang with Feng Shui Stones was always a good thing. If Wudang had related needs in the future, he would owe them a favor.
As he thought of this, he suddenly noticed that ordinary Feng Shui Stone. It could be used to make Feng Shui ornaments, which was covered in the knowledge of 《primary Feng Shui》.
Moreover, in many environments, Feng Shui ornaments alone could make a difference.
For example, many people who run shops in the outside world will buy a Feng Shui ornament to place in the store. Whether it has any effect no one knows, and even the placement is often random.
He tried taking out the Feng Shui Spirit Record Stone from the game warehouse and using it on that Feng Shui Stone. He then received some prompts:
【The Feng Shui Spirit Record Stone has detected a usable Feng Shui prop “Feng Shui Stone”. This Feng Shui Stone is an ordinary Feng Shui Stone with a unique shape that can be carved into a rockery ornament “Hidden Wind”.
Production process: Carve the rockery ornament. Inscribe the Feng Shui Wind Concealing Talisman. Place it into the artifact refining room for refinement to activate the Hidden Wind Talisman effect.
Effect: “borrowing fortune, warding off evil and concealing wind” +1】
With the game prompt, Chen Han also saw an astonishing scene. The Feng Shui Spirit Record Stone seemed to project an image, and before his eyes appeared the phantom diagram of the rockery ornament “Hidden Wind.”
So, the first step was to carve this Feng Shui Stone according to that phantom diagram.
