   Chapter 1 Feng Shui Masters Feng Shui masters are a folk profession that walks the path between Yin and Yang. With the changing times, only a few inheritors remain hidden among the people, perpetuating this deeply rooted mystery. My grandfather was one of the few remaining inheritors of Feng Shui. "Feng Shui, good fortune brings life, misfortune brings death!" "A blade of grass in front of a house, a brick behind a grave—sometimes, you only need to slightly alter their positions to bring blessings to your descendants, or to harm your entire family..." This was my grandfather's understanding of Feng Shui. Having inherited the Feng Shui secrets passed down for a thousand years, my grandfather was often looked down upon in his youth. People from all around considered him an old superstitious fool, a fish that had slipped through the net. He and my grandmother weren't well-liked by the villagers at the time. My grandmother was a city girl my grandfather brought back from working as a Feng Shui master. She was beautiful and pretty, only nineteen years old at the time. From the day she returned to the village with my grandfather, countless people had their eyes on her. Especially the village head's family, those two...

    I recently read four novels related to "Yin and Yang" and "releasing the spirits," with very different styles, but each with its own unique appeal. I recommend them to you: ① *The Spirit Walker: The Last Incense* - A classic in the genre. The protagonist is born with a Yin destiny, communicating with the dead for the living, and experiencing various supernatural events along the way. Fast-paced and suspenseful, a top choice for readers who enjoy supernatural adventures. ② *The Heavenly Tribulation Patrol Division* - A Xianxia fantasy novel where the protagonist controls heavenly tribulations and patrols on behalf of Heaven. A grand world-building and exciting fight scenes, suitable for readers who enjoy action-packed, level-up stories. Completely different from the other three in terms of folk style, but equally captivating. ③ *Releasing the Spirits in Meishan* - This one is quite special. It doesn't depict ghosts and gods claiming lives, nor does it describe the protagonist descending to the underworld. It only tells the story of a real releasing the spirits ceremony in the mountains of Hunan in 1998. The master slept soundly all night, waking up to utter only five incoherent sentences. His son, who had been missing for two years, returned on his own after half a month, but one small thing remained unexplained. I couldn't put it down after reading it, because the story isn't about whether magic works, but about a mother who, through a ritual, finally said what she hadn't dared to say for two years. ④ *My Mother-in-Law Uses a Ghostly Ritual to Force Me to Give Up My House, I Make the Whole Village Hear My Deceased Husband's Last Words* is a combination of a female-oriented, fast-paced novel and folk elements. The mother-in-law uses a ghostly ritual to force her daughter-in-law to give up her house, but the daughter-in-law retaliates by making the whole village hear her deceased husband's last words, completely turning the tables. Fast-paced and full of satisfying moments, it's suitable for readers who enjoy the "evil mother-in-law + counterattack" trope. Four books, four styles: supernatural adventure, fantasy action, folk documentary, and female-oriented fast-paced novel. Which one do you prefer?
