At nine years old, Tang Shitou encounters an archaeological team in Qingshi Village in the Qinling Mountains and displays a natural talent for observing his surroundings. Three years later, he becomes a disciple of the reclusive master Mo Luan and takes the name Lu Qingxuan, inheriting a folk feng shui art on the verge of being lost.
From disputes over rural homesteads to feng shui battles in the provincial capital; from improving coal mine safety layouts to planning international cultural venues, he uses his solid feng shui knowledge and keen eye for the environment to resolve one spatial dilemma after another.
“Feng shui isn't on the compass or in the mountains and rivers. It's in the eyes you use to see the world.”
The Earth Vein Grandmaster isn't a story about the supernatural. It's a story about observation, understanding, and harmony. It tells how one person learns to read the language of the land, and ultimately uncovers the secrets of the human heart.
As Tang Wuxin walks along a mountain path in the Qinling Mountains, pointing the way for travelers who have lost their way,
he doesn't show them the shortest route, but the one that's most “suitable.”
That is the Way of the Earth Vein Grandmaster.
