Zuo Xiaoduo had already seen through it. He tilted his head back and considered for a moment, then said in a low, focused voice, "Cling fast to the green mountain, never let go; if you head east, eastward I will go. Only a true heart can win a true heart; only lasting devotion can earn true affection."
"Have you remembered that?"
Gui Xiaocheng's expression shifted. "Thank you, Monitor Zuo, for those few words of profound wisdom."
Zuo Xiaoduo said, "If you don't listen to me, forget it. But if you benefit from following my advice, remember to block off the southwest corner of your courtyard with a Sun Moon Pass Front Stone. Remember, a stone from in front of the pass! Not from atop the pass or behind it. Understood?"
"Understood."
Gui Xiaocheng repeated the words several times, making certain he remembered them. Still uneasy, he took out a pen and wrote the sentences on his palm. Only then did he leave as though he had acquired a priceless treasure, running off to one side to make a phone call.
Li Chenglong was puzzled. "Boss Zuo, why the southwest?"
"Because the southwest is the Ghost Gate! Since ancient times, a gate facing southwest has always brought calamity. That is an immutable law. Throughout the continent, no main gate faces southwest. It's because of the gate of Fengdu!"
"Because the legendary ghost city of Fengdu lies in the southwest. With this wavering, Gui Xiaocheng's family has actually already stepped halfway into the Ghost Gate. Although I've given them guidance, they already have one foot inside the Ghost Gate. They need a bloodstained stone from the killing grounds in front of Sun Moon Pass to suppress the Ghost Gate directly!" [If you don't understand, look it up on Baidu.]
