Dragon-Seeking Mysteries: The Feng Shui Master of a Military Family
Synopsis
A pair of eyes that can see “earthly energy,” a military family lineage hidden for twenty-five years, and a battle to protect the nation’s lifeblood spanning three centuries.
Lu Shan thought he was just a feng shui master making his living in the martial world alongside his adoptive father, Jin Sansheng.
He can see the “energy” others cannot: mountains have their own qi, rivers their own veins, and tombs their own glow.
These “earth eyes” let him spot a sunken ship beneath the river at Kunlong Shoal with a single glance, but they also bring him a death sentence.
When a Ming dynasty shipwreck rises to the surface, when human bones carved with talismans emerge, and when the spirit of a river guardian from three hundred years ago awakens in a bronze mirror
Only then does Lu Shan realize he has become entangled in far more than an underwater treasure hunt.
The “Starwatch Tower,” a feng shui organization with a glamorous public face, has spent three centuries secretly altering the earth’s veins and stealing the nation’s destiny.
And he turns out to be the heir to the “earth eyes” they have sought for years.
Even more startling truths follow:
The adoptive father who always smoked late at night and taught him feng shui formulas was once a company commander in the guard detail of a founding marshal.
And the biological father he had never met was a descendant of a military family, killed by the “Starwatch Tower” while carrying out orders to investigate the nation’s lifeblood.
Lu Shan is the marshal’s grandson, lost among the common people.
On one side lies the martial world’s flashing blades:
The soul-hanging staircase in the Qinling royal tomb, the deadly game in the desert’s imperial mausoleum, the underwater death trap at the Eastern Sea’s Dinghai Point...
On the other lies the turbulent undercurrents of the halls of power:
Suspicion within the family, disdain from the academic establishment, and the powerful people’s fear and desire for the “nation’s lifeblood”...
Lu Shan must find his own way through these two worlds:
Using the unorthodox tricks of the martial world to break the academic establishment’s bonds
