Chapter 7: Eight Coffins Gathering Ghosts
"Is there something wrong with that place?"

There was a sense of uneasiness rising in Master Lu's heart. Every time Lin Fengjiu spoke in this tone, it meant that something was going to go wrong, and it was not a small problem.

"Let someone dig down first and see. If you dig ten feet down, you will find the answer."

Lin Fengjiu didn't say much.

With the help of the Bagua compass technique, he could only conclude that there was a problem underground, but he was not good enough at judging what the problem was because of his current lack of cultivation.

When Master Lu heard this, the bad feeling in his heart instantly magnified hundreds and thousands of times, and he felt like his head was about to get several times bigger. He ordered all the servants of the Lu family to go out, pry open the floor tiles, stick their butts out, and dig down without any grunts.

"There is a coffin..."

When many servants expended great efforts and finally dug to the location Lin Fengjiu mentioned, Master Lu exclaimed.

As far as his eyes can reach.

It was a coffin, made of black wood with skull patterns carved on it. It was a strange coffin that made people feel cold at first sight.

He had seen coffins before, but he had never heard of a coffin with a skull pattern carved on it like the one now. Which good person would carve a skull on his coffin?

Of course, the strangeness of the coffin is not the key point. The key point is that the coffin is buried in the basement of the Lu family. When he thought about the people of the Lu family passing by it day and night, he couldn't help but shudder. It was too scary.

"Dig over there, and over there."

When Lin Fengjiu saw the skull pattern on the coffin, his eyes narrowed and he ordered the Lu family servants to dig in several locations he designated.

"This this……"

When the servants of the Lu family dug up all the places designated by Lin Fengjiu, Mr. Lu's body trembled, he couldn't breathe, and almost died.

I saw.

After the location designated by Lin Fengjiu was dug up, a number of coffins that were exactly the same as the previous one suddenly appeared. There were seven in total, and with the previous one, there were exactly eight. They were arranged in a certain direction and connected to each other to form a regular octagon.

“So cruel.”

Lin Fengjiu was shocked.

"Mr. Lin, what is this situation?"

As soon as Mr. Lu saw Lin Fengjiu's expression, he knew that the eight coffins must be related to Feng Shui, and it was definitely an extremely evil Feng Shui.

"Eight coffins gather ghosts, which can attract evil spirits."

"Living in a place where eight coffins gather ghosts for a long time will at best affect your body and cause you to be plagued by illness, or at worst attract evil spirits and cause you to have no peace for the rest of your life."

"I originally thought that the Panda Burning Incense was simply treating your Lu family as dead and worshipping them. Now it seems that the main purpose of the Panda Burning Incense is these eight coffins. The Panda Burning Incense and the Eight Coffins Gathering Ghosts complement each other and are the real deadly killing moves against your Lu family."

Lin Fengjiu took a deep breath.

He was becoming increasingly confused about the Lu family's affairs.

I originally thought that soaking the coffin in black dog blood and setting up the Black Dog Soul-Devouring Formation on the coffin to draw negative energy under Master Lu's tomb was cruel enough, but I didn't expect there would be pandas burning incense later. I didn't expect that now even the eight coffins gathering ghosts, a sinister feng shui pattern that is detrimental to the good deeds of the person who set up the layout, would appear, and it was used in conjunction with the pandas burning incense.

It is unlucky to burn incense and worship others.

Burning incense and worshiping ghosts will attract evil spirits.

The combination of Panda Burning Incense and the Eight Coffins Gathering Ghosts can not only maximize the power of the Eight Coffins Gathering Ghosts, but also play an amplifying role.

"Is there a solution?"

Mr. Lu’s face turned pale instantly, his breathing became rapid and short, and his chest rose and fell violently.

There were coffins buried underground, eight coffins gathering ghosts, and pandas were used to burn incense and offer sacrifices. He couldn't imagine what the Lu family would have become if there was no Lin Fengjiu.

This move is too cruel and too insidious.

"There is a way, but..."

A hint of hesitation flashed across Lin Fengjiu's eyes, and she began to think of retreating.

The eight coffins gather ghosts, which is not only insidious, but also requires a certain level of cultivation from the person who planned it. His strength can be seen from the fact that he was able to bury the eight coffins underground in the Lu family compound without alerting the Lu family.

People with that level of cultivation are not something that Lin Fengjiu can contend with at the moment.

With his cultivation level, Lin Fengjiu had no doubt that it would be a piece of cake for that man to wipe out the entire Lu family.

He was able to wipe out the entire Lu family without taking direct action, and instead used Feng Shui methods to deal with the Lu family. There must be a reason behind this that he was unaware of.

Maybe he didn't want the Lu family to die too quickly.

After all, sometimes, death is not scary, what is scary is the fear of the unknown. What is scarier than the fear of the unknown is dying slowly in the fear of the unknown.

Perhaps the Lu family has some connections unknown to outsiders, which makes the people who planned it dare not kill the Lu family openly. They can only use Feng Shui methods to secretly destroy the Lu family's Feng Shui, quietly, until the Lu family is wiped out.

No matter what the main reason was for the person behind the plot not to destroy the Lu family, it did not prevent his true strength from far exceeding Lin Fengjiu. This was extremely important to Lin Fengjiu. It was not a good habit to easily interfere in the affairs of someone who was much stronger than oneself.

“Mr. Lin, please.” Mr. Lu’s lips trembled as he bowed to Lin Fengjiu.

As an old man, he was very experienced. How could he not see the retreat in Lin Fengjiu's words? Now his Lu family was counting on Lin Fengjiu for salvation. If Lin Fengjiu really gave up, where could he find someone as capable as Lin Fengjiu who could see the problems of the Lu family at a glance?

"Master Lu..."

Lin Fengjiu looked embarrassed.

If I want to solve the problem for your Lu family, I must have the strength to do so. If those two can't do anything to him by relying on the power of the formation and fighting in the air, then there is no doubt that I will take action in a minute and solve the problem for your Lu family. There is nothing wrong with that.

However, the person who could set up the eight coffins to gather ghosts must have a much higher level of cultivation than him. If I tamper with the layout at will, what if the person who set it up has left behind some killer moves, or even worse, shows up and gets me involved? Then, wouldn’t it be too late for me to regret?

"Mr. Lin, my Lu family can add money."

Mr. Lu is very wealthy.

Judging from the look on Lin Fengjiu's face, things seemed to be a bit tricky.

However, no matter how difficult the situation was, he believed in the power of money. If five thousand taels was not enough, he would increase the amount until Lin Fengjiu felt that he could take the risk.

Although his Lu family had nothing else, they believed they had some Lu family property.

"This is not a question of money. Tell me honestly, who did your Lu family offend?"

Lin Fengjiu stared at Master Lu.

"My Lu family's business is in competition with many people, so I will offend some people more or less, openly or covertly."

Mr. Lu's eyes flickered.

"If that's what you say, then I can't do anything about it."

Lin Fengjiu made a gesture and turned around to leave.

You want me to solve your problem, but you're playing tricks on me. Can people be more honest with each other?
The coffin is soaked with black dog's blood, the black dog devours the soul, the panda burns incense, and the eight coffins gather ghosts. Each one is more sinister than the other. They are all situations that will lead to the extinction of the whole family. Anyone who is involved, or who has arranged the situation, or who has asked others to arrange the situation, will be affected to some extent.

There is a god above your head. If you hurt others, you will hurt yourself. This refers to the insidious means such as gathering ghosts in eight coffins. Unless there is an irreconcilable feud, few people are willing to use such immoral means to deal with others.

Just because he is a business competitor, he wants to fool him. Doesn't Mr. Lu really think that he is one of those fake goods sold on the streets and doesn't understand the interests involved?
When Mr. Lu saw Lin Fengjiu was about to leave, a look of nervousness suddenly appeared on his face. His lips were tightly closed, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and his fingers nodded unconsciously.

There was a fierce struggle in my heart.

Master Lu took a deep breath and made a decision. A relieved smile appeared on his face. He pulled Lin Fengjiu and said, "Mr. Lin, wait a moment. I want to show you something."

Keep Lin Fengjiu.

Mr. Lu turned and walked away from the heavily guarded secret room of the Lu family. When he appeared again, he had a box in his hand. When he opened it, he saw half a piece of ancient parchment with some route maps drawn on it.

"To be honest, my Lu family's ancestor was also a cultivator with great accomplishments. This parchment scroll was obtained by my Lu family's ancestor in a life-or-death battle."

"According to my Lu family's ancestors, this is a map of the cave ruins. If we can find the other half, we can find the cave ruins and obtain the ruins inheritance."

"I guess someone must have set their sights on this parchment scroll of our Lu family. Fortunately, our Lu family has some connections in Jiuyun City. That person must have some reservations, otherwise he might have directly snatched it away."

Mr. Lu spoke frankly.

People are not rich without windfall, and horses are neither night nor fat.

Except for a few people who can build their business to a certain level, the vast majority of others’ first pot of gold, or the way they started their business, was more or less not so honest.

Although the ancestors of the Lu family were not the majority, the Lu family's starting capital was also built on a pile of bones. The first pot of gold that the Lu family made was earned through a treasure hunt.

According to what his Lu family ancestors left behind, many people died in the fight, and many of them even had their entire families wiped out or were uprooted. In that fight, only a few people were able to survive, and the Lu family ancestor was one of them.

Of course, the greater the risk, the greater the reward.

The ancestor of the Lu family obtained many valuable treasures in that battle, and one of the most valuable one is this parchment scroll.

However, since there is only half of the parchment scroll, several generations of the Lu family have been studying it for so many years, but they have not found anything except that the parchment scroll is impervious to water and fire.

"what do you mean?"

A thoughtful look flashed across Lin Fengjiu's face.

"If you are willing to help, my Lu family is willing to give this parchment scroll as a reward."

Mr. Lu spoke.

He thought about it and recalled that the person who could use such vicious means to deal with the Lu family should be the descendant of those who had luckily escaped from the hands of the Lu family's ancestors in the fight that year. His Lu family had studied it for many years but had not found anything about the parchment scroll, so they simply gave it to Lin Fengjiu. On the one hand, it would allow Lin Fengjiu to take action, and on the other hand, it would be like throwing this hot potato away.
