Chapter 2: The Great Dream of Fourteen Years
As the earth was destroyed by the dragon's breath, a special soul drifted into the vast starry sky and was reborn in an unknown world on the other side of the galaxy.
Su Donghua spent a long time before realizing that she had transmigrated and reborned, returning to the dark and warm womb.
"Unfortunately, I calculated the heavenly phenomenon, but didn't calculate that this phenomenon would be so shocking!"
Su Dong was one step too slow in the Nine Palaces Inverse Slaughter Formation, and failed to kill Hei Long before he could unleash his Dragon's Breath and destroy the Earth.
"Honestly, Grandpa, I was still wondering about the authenticity of the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter you passed down to me. Now that I think about it, I really misunderstood you. It turns out that this Qimen Dunjia is actually so powerful." Su Dong thought to himself with a smile.
It's no wonder Su Dong is suspicious, after all, the origin of Qimen Dunjia is too suspicious.
In ancient times, the Yellow Emperor fought a great battle against Chi You at Zhuolu. Chi You was seven feet tall, with a bronze head and iron arms, and no sword or spear could penetrate him.
The Yellow Emperor suffered a great defeat and spent the night in a mountain valley, where he encountered the Nine Heavenly Goddesses descending to earth.
The goddess gave the Yellow Emperor a treasure box, nine inches long and eight inches wide, inside which was the ancient first secret technique passed down to this day, Qimen Dunjia.
Meet a goddess? Get inheritance? Su Dong didn't believe it at all, so he always thought that Old Man was fooling him.
It wasn't until the moment he witnessed the destruction of the Earth with his own eyes that Su Dong had to admit it - the legendary Qimen Dunjia, which Old Man Li had been boasting about, was actually real! And what's more, even the legendary Dragon Clan appeared!
"It's probably that the ancestor Huangdi met a strong wanderer in the universe, and somehow used flowery words to deceive him into passing on his legacy. Afraid of being gossiped about behind his back, he made up this story." Su Dong thought with a bit of malice in her heart.
Suddenly~
Su Dong's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself: "If the Qimen Dunjia is real, then if I cultivate well in this life, open the Longjia Eight Gates, and pass through the Shenzhang Nine Palaces, can't I also use the Star Ball Array?"
"By then, why is the solar system a formation? Who laid it out? Why was it laid out? And where did the giant dragon hiding in the dark universe come from? Won't all these questions be answered?"
Su Dong was very impressed with his own wild imagination and also felt lucky because the key to solving this huge mystery was in his hands!
The honest old man forced Su Dong to recite the poem for over a decade, and he didn't suffer less. Now it seems that this was a wise decision!
……
Fourteen years later.
"Dragon Armor Eight Gates, first gate, open!"
Along with Su Dong's angry roar, the Gate of Rest opens! The meridians are unblocked, and the Dragon Scale Treasure Armor protects his right arm!
Su Dong sat up in bed, drenched in sweat.
His idea was great, he would carry on the legacy of Qiguan and be reborn. If he started cultivating from his mother's womb, as soon as he was born, he would be a master!
Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, Su Dong's cultivation went awry from the start, and he directly fell into a coma.
Today, Su Dong opened the first door of Longjia and truly woke up fourteen years after his birth.
For fourteen years, Su Dong could only hear the sounds around him, but he couldn't open his eyes or make a complete movement.
In front of me is a fairly spacious room, with simple and old-fashioned furnishings that seem like they're from ancient times.
Su Dong had already learned from his family's words that this was not Earth, but a place called Hansheng City in another world, belonging to the Holy Star Empire.
Whoosh!
A gust of cold wind struck, and Su Dong suddenly became much more sober.
He exerted himself to climb out of the quilt, scanned the room with his eyes and said in a low voice: "Under the bright sky, the evil spirit is so heavy, how can people live here?"
*silence*
The words had barely fallen when the thick white birch wooden door was smashed open and crashed to the ground with a loud thud.
Only a tall and stout man stood at the door, over 1.7 meters in height, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a honest face.
He burst through the door, staring at Su Dong with wide eyes for a long time. Suddenly, this man cried out loud and shouted: "Brother! You're finally awake!"
Plop!
The tall man rushed to Su Dong's bedside in one stride, knelt down directly, and wept like a child, tightly embracing Su Dong.
Su Dong had been in a coma for fourteen years and was originally weak. Being hugged by this big man made her slightly short of breath.
"Su Ning, is that you?" Su Dong smiled and said: "Hurry up and let go of Ge, your strength is more than he can handle."
Whoosh!
Su Ning was very nervous and quickly withdrew his arm, saying: "Brother, I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ning suddenly pointed at himself with a look of surprise and delight, saying foolishly: "Brother, so you know me!?"
Su Dong smiled slightly, raised his hand and patted Su Ning's head, saying: "For over a decade, you've been muttering in front of my bed every day, how could I not recognize your voice?"
Don't look at Su Ning being tall and majestic, but he is actually Su Dong's younger brother in this life.
It's a coincidence that Su Dong is also called Su Dong in this life, and Su Ning is an orphan picked up by Su Jia Lao Die Su Qi Nian on the road, six months younger than Su Dong.
All these years, Su Qiannian treated Su Ning as if he were his own son, never mentioning his origins, only occasionally muttering a few words in front of Su Dong when no one was around at midnight.
Suning was very sensible and had a good physique since childhood, helping with household chores. Originally, the family hired a nanny to take care of Su Dong, but she was later driven away by Su Qiannian for being dishonest.
From then on, Su Ning took on the responsibility of taking care of her brother. Not much older than a child herself, she took good care of Su Dong, so Su Qiyan simply stopped hiring servants and the two of them took care of Su Dong themselves.
Every day, Su Ning would run to Su Dong's bedside and recount the events of the day. After starting school, Su Ning would tell Su Dong about what he learned in school and what he heard, often becoming so sleepy that he would fall asleep right in front of Su Dong's bed.
For over a decade, without interruption, Su Dong's limited understanding of this alien world came from his brother and father's murmurs to themselves.
Although it was the first time they met, Su Dong liked this brother from the bottom of his heart. For over a decade, he had been through wind and rain with him, and even if Su Dong were a stone, he would have been moved by three points.
"Right! I must hurry and tell Father this news! Let Father be delighted too!" Suning said suddenly.
Su Dong waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry, first help me take down that mirror on the opposite side."
Su Ning was taken aback, and hastily followed Su Dong's words to take down the copper mirror opposite the bed. He said, "Father said that he was afraid you wouldn't be able to see your own appearance when you woke up, so he put this largest mirror in your room, made of copper, which cost a full three taels of silver."
Su Dong sighed and thought to herself, "This unseen father of mine is really something else, putting a mirror directly opposite the bedhead. Doesn't he know that's a big taboo in Feng Shui? Does he think I'm some kind of monster?"
Following Su Dong's instructions, the copper mirror was thrown into the yard. Su Ning wanted to prop up the door panel that had been knocked over by himself.
Su Dongdao said: "It doesn't matter if the door is upside down, listen to me, move this wardrobe to the opposite side, and also change the location of the washbasin."
One school of Taoist thought has an old saying: First is fate, second is luck, third is Feng Shui.
The meaning is that for a person's life and career, the most important thing is luck, followed by destiny, and then feng shui.
Qimen is just the opposite, and the first place in Qimen is Feng Shui formation, but Qimen Feng Shui is very different from other Xuanxue schools' Feng Shui, it's more profound and emphasizes layout.
To Su Dong, this room was a vortex of evil energy, where ordinary people would either die or be crippled if they lived here; it was already a miracle that Su Dong had survived until now.
So the first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to make a big change in Feng Shui! He wanted to revitalize this room!
The wardrobe itself has no problem, the key is that the wardrobe is too close to the window, blocking one-fifth of the window. When sunlight enters the room in the afternoon, the wardrobe will also form a sharp corner due to the refraction of light, bringing a sense of shadowy energy.
There is also the copper basin for washing face, usually with half a basin of water, gold and water give birth to each other, so most are placed in the room's golden position, which can help wealth, but what Qimen Fengshui emphasizes most is the overall situation. Su Dong's room has wood phase, governing growth, putting water in the golden position will instead help the horizontal cutting energy in the room.
An inconspicuous basin of water, however, just made the room a golden wooden dead knot, so Su Dong had to move the basin to the wooden position, forming a stable wooden phase pattern.
As the old saying goes, there is a world of difference between life and death in a small room! Even if it's just a small room, a poor layout can lead to big problems.
After all, the bedroom is an important place for a person to rest and settle down. At night when sleeping, it is a time when a person is most relaxed and vulnerable.
Many people easily have nightmares, insomnia, or even physical chills and cold hands and feet during sleep. In severe cases, it can lead to evil spirits oppressing the body, harming the internal organs! It's very likely that the problem lies with the room's layout!
To put it simply, on a sunny spring day, lying down in the green grass by the lake and taking a nap is completely different from resting in a dark, damp little room. The difference is huge!
Humans are products of nature, constantly influenced by their surroundings at all times. The Qimen Fengshui formation is a super secret technique that adjusts the environment to its optimal state and stabilizes and guards it!
Of course, what Su Dong did was only a small part of the Qimen tradition, and it was far from changing one's fate or even using the Xingqiu Bu Ni Sha formation.
After bustling around for half a day, even Su Ning's robust physique couldn't prevent sweat from beading on his forehead. He wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve and asked: "Brother, is there anything else that doesn't meet your expectations? As long as you can live comfortably, everything will be fine."
Su Dong nodded and said: "For now, that's all we can do. Let's go take a look in the courtyard."
Su Ning hastily helped Su Dong leave the room and entered the courtyard.
As soon as they stepped out, Su Ning furrowed her brow and said, "It's strange, it's noon now, but I feel like the room was even warmer?"
Su Dong was slightly proud of himself, his own feng shui layout inherited from the mysterious gate, personally taught by Old Master last year.
After his modification, it's hard to say whether it can stir up wind and water, but at least it can help prolong life.
The Su family's courtyard is about 100 square meters in size, which is not small. The sunlight is also sufficient. In addition to this, there are five bungalows, all of which are south-facing designs.
Although he was an outsider in the city of Hanshing, his father Su Qiyan was a good learner and worked as the chief instructor for the wealthy Liu family in Hanshing City, teaching the children of the Liu family to read and write, with a monthly income of twenty taels of silver.
In Froststar City, twenty taels of silver can support a family of three for a year. Su Qi's salary was quite substantial. This courtyard alone, located not far from the bustling streets of Froststar City, was worth no less than 300 taels.
Unfortunately, the courtyard is nice, but it's occupied by a 30-year-old jujube tree at the position of the dead gate, and the life gate is pressed down tightly by a huge bluestone millstone.
From the perspective of Feng Shui, this is really bad, equivalent to giving a way out to the dead door, releasing the earth evil spirit through the branches and leaves of the jujube tree, and suppressing it with a huge millstone, also cutting off the life gate, causing the evil spirit to be accumulated in the yard, with no place to vent.
Su Dong walked around the jujube tree that was almost fully grown and took a look at it.
All that can be seen is the tree's gloomy shade, with black air seeping through its branches and leaves, just like the Black Mountain Demon in movies. It's clear that the evil energy has already penetrated into its bones, beyond salvation.
"No wonder, no wonder it took me 14 years to open the first door of Longjia Ba Men, and I almost went crazy. It's all because of this Feng Shui that's been harming me. If I don't get rid of it, I'll be restless day and night!" Su Dong muttered to himself.
But Su Dong thought again, having survived in such a harsh environment and even brought down the first door of Longjia Eight Doors! Doesn't this prove that his body is very spiritual in this life, and the energy from the other world is also very abundant?
If a good feng shui location is found, it's likely that Su Dong will be able to open the second and even third branch of Longjia in just a few years!
"Su Ning, bring an axe." As soon as he thought of this, Su Dong's heart was filled with anticipation, his eyebrows raised, and he said loudly.
"Brother, what are you going to do?"
"Cut down this tree for me!"
Although only thirteen years old, Suning's strength was unusually great. The eight-pound axe flew up and down, and in a short while, the jujube tree that had grown for over thirty years was cut down to the ground.
The jujube tree was cut down, and the yard suddenly became cool.
The jujube tree has died and can no longer emit the evil spirit, while its massive root system has become a natural seal for the dead door, preventing any more evil spirits from invading the courtyard.
Under Su Dong's guidance, Su Ning was busy for an entire afternoon and finally gave the small courtyard of the Su family a bit of appearance.
The evil spirit has dissipated, even though the sunset is already slanted, sitting in the courtyard still has a kind of refreshing feeling like spring breeze.
Su Ning closed his eyes and sat beside Su Dong, took a deep breath, and exclaimed in surprise: "Brother, I feel that there is spiritual energy in our courtyard!"
