Chapter 123: The Power of the Feng Shui Formation

Ouyang Long, Fang Yi, and Yuan Yifei were not troubled by this question for long. It was not because they had found the answer, but because they were shocked by something new and even more bizarre.

Just after Li Sichen had placed the two feng shui mirrors, he suddenly crouched down, spread the fingers of his right hand, and slapped them onto the floor, which was scorching hot from the raging flames.

The feng shui mirrors buried in the floor and walls suddenly lit up, flashing with two beams of golden light. Although Ouyang Long, Fang Yi, and Yuan Yifei saw the golden light, they did not think much of it. Because at that moment, they were surrounded by raging fire, so they subconsciously assumed the golden light was produced by the flames and did not associate it with the mirrors. They certainly did not imagine that the feng shui of the KTV had been altered at that very moment!

The "Water Dragon Flooding the River" formation!

This type of feng shui layout is mostly used in arid regions, as its purpose is to draw in water from the surroundings. At this moment, Li Sichen’s goal in changing the KTV’s feng shui to the "Water Dragon Flooding the River" formation was to summon water to extinguish the fire!

Although Ouyang Long, Fang Yi, and Yuan Yifei watched what Li Sichen was doing, they were completely confused and did not understand his intentions.

Fang Yi whispered, "Captain Ouyang, what do you think this kid is doing? First, he threw out two mirrors, and now he’s posing like Arnold Schwarzenegger just after arriving from the future in 'The Terminator'... Could he really have gone crazy?"

"This... I’m not sure either," Ouyang Long replied, shaking his head. The questions in his mind were no fewer than Fang Yi’s.

With two professional firefighters unable to fathom what Li Sichen was doing, the big star Yuan Yifei certainly could not know either. As she watched Li Sichen posing amidst the raging flames, only one thought crossed her mind: "It's over, I'm definitely going to die this time. Tomorrow's newspaper headlines will surely be things like 'A-List Star Yuan Yifei Perishes in Sea of Fire.' Although I’ve always wanted to make the headlines, this isn't the kind of headline I wanted..."

Just as the three were lost in their own thoughts, a "rumbling" sound suddenly echoed.

"What is that sound?" The three were startled at once. They were surprised not only because the sound came suddenly, but because it was extremely loud! The rumbling was like a thunderclap; it not only made their ears ache but also caused the entire floor and walls to tremble incessantly. The walls, already damaged by the raging flames, began to crumble and fall.

"Listening to this sound, it seems to be coming from inside the walls?" Ouyang Long listened carefully, his expression filled with shock and hesitation. "Could it be that there is something hidden inside these walls?"

"No... not just the walls; it seems this sound is coming from the ceiling too... Ah, it’s under our feet as well!" The shock on Fang Yi’s face was no less than his captain's.

"Could it be haunted?" Yuan Yifei guessed with a trembling voice. The scenes unfolding before her were so bizarre and uncanny that she could not help but lean toward supernatural explanations.

"I’ve heard before that when people are about to die, they see supernatural events that ordinary people cannot see. Are we experiencing that legendary situation right now?" Despite the reflection of the flames, Yuan Yifei’s face was still pale to the extreme. It wasn't that she was worried; anyone encountering such a situation would likely be scared out of their wits. Perhaps their reaction wouldn't even be as composed as Yuan Yifei's.

Ouyang Long and Fang Yi remained silent, but in their hearts, they were beginning to agree with Yuan Yifei. They, too, felt that the rumbling and shaking appearing all around them was likely a supernatural phenomenon.

"I didn't expect we would die like this... honestly, I'm so unwilling!" This thought flashed through their minds simultaneously.

However, just as they thought their deaths were certain, a sudden change occurred!

Boom!

A violent explosion suddenly erupted from directly above Li Sichen’s head! But this explosion produced no fire, nor did it kick up rolling flames. Instead, a torrential curtain of water descended from the ceiling, drenching Li Sichen from head to toe. Not only did it soak him completely, but it also forcefully dampened the intensity of the surrounding flames!

The water curtain was constant, seemingly endless, pouring down in a torrent.

"The Water Dragon has arrived!"

Standing in the water curtain, looking like a drowned rat, Li Sichen grinned. Then, he wore a bitter expression, shaking his head and sighing, "Hey, that’s not right. The spot where I’m standing shouldn't be the 'Dragon’s Head' position. Why did the water dragon’s head emerge here, drenching me? Could it be the bad luck I brought from singing and having fun at the KTV today? Yes, it must be that..."

At the same time, one explosion after another rang out continuously along the corridor. The explosions occurred in the ceilings, the walls, and even the floors! Although the locations differed, the effect was the same—every spot that exploded sprayed out surging waves of water!

The appearance of this water instantly weakened the intensity of the sea of fire in the corridor! The scorching high temperatures and suffocating toxic gases began to subside under the impact of these water surges.

In fact, although this KTV had many lapses in fire safety, it had followed regulations during its initial renovation, installing fire pipes in the walls and fire sprinklers on the ceilings. Moreover, a large sum of money was allocated every year as fire safety funding to maintain this equipment. However, these funds were embezzled by Cheng Peng, the general manager, through various excuses and means. The result was that the fire equipment had fallen into disrepair over the years. Once a fire broke out, it was completely useless.

Although the equipment was broken, the pipes remained. As the "Water Dragon Flooding the River" formation set by Li Sichen took effect, all the water in the vicinity was drawn through these pipes! The rumbling sounds Ouyang Long, Fang Yi, and Yuan Yifei had heard earlier were caused by the water rushing through the pipes! The explosions they witnessed were caused by the pipes failing to withstand the immense pressure of the water.

Countless waves of water gushed from the pipes, instantly turning the KTV corridor into a "Water Curtain Cave."

Just as the water washed over the raging flames in the corridor, within a radius of five or six streets centered on the KTV, the water pressure became unstable! Residents on the first floor were fortunate enough to have a little water to use, but residents on the second floor and above had absolutely no water at all, no matter how much they turned the faucets.

Because all the water had been drawn away by the "Water Dragon Flooding the River" formation!

This is the power of a true feng shui formation!
