The Feng Shui Array Is Working!

"Sigh... Are there any others? Don't tell me there's only one grave."

Lin Xiao sighed, truly holding no hope for this empty-grave Feng Shui.

"Of course there are, guga!"

Daoist Guga puffed out her chest, instantly regaining her confidence.

"The rest of us sisters calculated it together and changed your entire room layout, Boss, guga!"

As she spoke, she turned and walked toward the front house.

A vague sense of foreboding rose in Lin Xiao's heart, and he followed.

"A room? You guys didn't conjure up some weird stuff, did you?"

Daoist Guga didn't even look back, extremely confident.

"Don't worry, Boss!

The Eight-Direction Wealth-Gathering Copper Coin Array, Red Luan Peach Blossom Affinity Formation, Big Dipper Evil-Suppressing Array, and Four Symbols House-Guarding have all been arranged for you, guga!"

Lin Xiao was completely bamboozled.

It sounded so professional.

What should he do now that he was somewhat tempted?

Click—

As the door was pushed open.

"Boss, please take a look! First array, the Eight-Direction Wealth-Gathering Copper Coin Array, guga!"

She raised a claw to point at the floor. In the eight corners of the room sat eight neatly arranged old copper coins, with a cracked pottery jar pressed right in the center.

"Eight coins suppress all eight directions, gathering wealth from all four sides! All passing fortune and wealth will be locked into the pottery jar. In less than half a year, Boss, your wealth will roll in endlessly, guga!"

Lin Xiao lowered his head to look. The copper coins were covered in rust, and the pottery jar was still cracked. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Why did this feel like a beggar's money-begging formation?

Before he could retort, Daoist Guga immediately moved to the bedside.

"Second array! The Red Luan Peach Blossom Affinity Formation!"

Lin Xiao raised his eyes to look. On the four bedposts and the legs of various cabinets.

Bright red cloth strips were tied to all of them, with little figures and talismans drawn on the strips.

"Four cords pull the Red Luan, hanging pictures to draw romance! It's specially meant to summon noble patrons and peach blossom luck for the Boss, making your popularity skyrocket so that everyone loves you, guga!"

Good grief...

Not to mention whether this Feng Shui array that could turn him into a succubus was useful or not.

He could bet anything that if he got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, he would definitely take a dog-eating-mud fall...

Daoist Guga remained completely oblivious, hopping over to the center of the room.

"Third array! The Big Dipper Evil-Suppressing Array!"

Seven cobblestones of varying sizes on the floor formed a crooked Big Dipper shape.

"The Seven Stars descend to suppress a hundred kinds of evil! Whether it's bad luck, misfortune, or malicious people and gossip, they'll all be blocked outside the door, ensuring the Boss's peace and smooth sailing!"

Immediately afterward, she pointed at the four corners of the room, where four divine beast guga statues were placed.

"The final grand finale! The Four Symbols House-Guarding Formation! Green Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermilion Bird in the front, Black Tortoise in the back!

The four great divine beasts transform into guardians for the entire house, and malevolent entities dare not come within a fraction of an inch, guga!"

Lin Xiao looked at all the Feng Shui arrays one by one, his initial anticipation slowly turning into a blank expression.

Was Daoist Guga really not trying to put him in mortal danger?

He had already conjured a mental image in his head:

Getting up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, only to get tripped by the red cloth hanging down from the bedside Red Luan formation.

Lunging forward and tumbling out headfirst, slamming his skull hard against that pile of sharp-edged cobblestones from the Big Dipper array on the floor.

Best-case scenario, he'd get a huge lump; worst-case scenario, his scalp would split open right on the spot.

"Guga, are you trying to murder me and usurp the throne?"

Daoist Guga waved her flippers repeatedly.

"How could that be, Boss! My loyalty to you is attested by heaven and earth, Patriarch Goose is watching, guga!"

Sigh... Forget it.

"Let's drop this one too. I want to ask, why didn't you guys use good materials for the setups? It's not like we're broke."

Daoist Guga scratched the back of her head, looking embarrassed.

"Hehe~ When we ran our Daoist temple before, we always used junk, so we got used to it, guga.

If we used good stuff, we wouldn't even know what to do."

Sigh...

Lin Xiao didn't even know how many times he had sighed.

This looked so unreliable.

Could it be because his level was too low and he only had two spirit rings, so their abilities hadn't fully manifested yet?

He walked out of the house with a slight headache.

"Sigh... Go inside in a while and dismantle all the arrays inside. We can talk about it after I level up later.

Otherwise, I'm really afraid I'll get bludgeoned to death one of these days..."

"Guga..."

Just at that moment, however.

His foot suddenly stubbed against a hard object, his stride tilted, and he almost slipped and fell.

"Eh?"

Lin Xiao steadied his footing and looked down.

A bulging money pouch lay quietly on the ground.

He bent down, reached out, and picked it up. It felt heavy in his hand.

He casually pulled open the mouth of the pouch, and a golden light spilled out.

"Twenty-six gold coins, eight silver coins, and seventy-six copper coins?"

Lin Xiao was instantly stunned.

Just a moment ago he was complaining that Guga's Feng Shui array was unreliable.

And right as he turned around and walked out, he directly picked up a bag of money?!

And it had exact change too. Wasn't this probably some unlucky bastard's entire fortune?

Yellow-Haired: Achoo!! Who is talking about me? Could it be Junior Sister? Today I'll treat Junior Sister to the most luxurious restaurant in the city for a romantic candlelight dinner! Then smoothly confess, hehehe~

Beside him, Daoist Guga's previously drooping, dejected little head instantly lifted. Her eyes lit up terrifyingly, and she looked full of swagger in an instant.

"Guga!! Did you see that!! It worked!! The Eight-Direction Wealth-Gathering Copper Coin Array really worked!!"

She jumped around wildly in place with excitement, her short legs kicking high into the air.

"I told you our Feng Shui works! It's not junk! It's just that you don't understand, Boss!"

Lin Xiao pinched the heavy money pouch in his hand and fell into deep thought.

If the wealth-gathering array was real...

Then wouldn't that Red Luan Peach Blossom Affinity Formation that turned him into a succubus be...

He tied the money pouch around his waist, gave a light cough, and said:

"Ahem, then let's just keep it for now. I just happen to like the feeling of playing level-clearance games in the middle of the night—it's thrilling!"

Daoist Guga proudly put her flippers on her hips.

I told you so~ She was an goose who had subdued Grandpa Ga; how could she possibly fail!

Everything, let the bullets fly for a while longer~

At the same time, in a place the man and goose couldn't perceive.

The Big Dipper Evil-Suppressing Array was also quietly exerting its power.

In a small town far away from Holy Soul Village.

Tang Hao wore a black robe, squatting by the roadside. He reached out to pinch a bit of dirt from the ground and put it into his mouth.

"Spit, spit, spit. It's precisely this burnt-leather smell! That group of thieves must have passed through here!"

His eyes instantly turned sharp.

Then he strode into the town, his gaze falling upon an old man picking his toes not far away.

"Old man, have you seen a group of penguins holding some things and passing through here?"

"Penguins? What kind of thing is that?"

"They're little black and white things, about this tall."

Tang Hao frowned and forced his patience as he gestured.

"Little black and white things?"

The old man pondered for a moment.

"Oh!! I remember! A few days ago, a passing luxury carriage actually had that thing you described tied to it.

I heard from my neighbor's nephew's cousin's husband that it seemed to be a lord from the Lan-Something Dragon Family."

Before he even finished speaking, the black-robed figure in front of him suddenly vanished into emptiness.

Wind whipped dust across the ground, leaving behind only an empty street.

The old man stiffened in place, his mouth hanging open for a long time without closing.

After several seconds, he slowly scratched his head, his face full of speechlessness.

"Holy crap, this young man has zero manners."

He patted the dust off his body and couldn't help muttering.

"Outlanders are really strange though. Insisting on calling a perfectly fine black-and-white wild pheasant a penguin. Reading books must have made him stupid."
