This was the method that Zhou Xiaoli had come up with to call the mayor over and to ensure that the mayor would side with her family.
After all, the mayor would usually not appear as long as the dispute between the villagers was not a big matter.
Moreover, she had only met the mayor once, so she could not guarantee that the mayor would help her.
Hence, she asked Wei Chiyu to bring a message to the mayor.
While receiving the reward money, Zhou Xiaoli had noticed that the mayor’s family members’ foreheads had traces of blackness, and several of them were ill.
On her way home from the county city, she happened to pass by the ancestral grave of the mayor’s family. At that time, she saw a ball of gray baleful aura floating north of the ancestral grave. It was obvious that they had offended something.
At that time, she did not want to care.
After all, she was not familiar with the mayor. Moreover, there was no need to take the risk and expose herself.
However, she was angered by how the Wang and Sun families came to make trouble yesterday.
Therefore, she thought of using this to befriend the mayor and to teach the Wang and Sun families a lesson. At the same time, she wanted to establish her might in the village.
That was why the mayor came out of the blue today.
“Mayor, please come in.” Zhou Xiaoli closed the door and led the mayor to the living room with a smile.
After Zhang Lan served tea to the mayor, she went out.
Zhou Xiaoli finally spoke.
However, she did not directly answer the mayor’s question. Instead, she asked, “Mayor, has your family often suffered from illnesses and had trouble with lower limbs in the past few years?”
“Furthermore, not only did your family suffer from illnesses and pain this year, they also lost money.”
Upon hearing this, the mayor looked up from his glass of water.
He put down the cup of water and looked at Zhou Xiaoli. He paused for a moment and nodded. “It’s true. Over the years, people in the family have often fallen sick. However, we are humans, so how can we not fall sick?”
The mayor was not surprised that Zhou Xiaoli had mentioned that many of his clansmen were sick.
After all, Dazhuang Village was not far from Boyu Village, so it was not surprising for her to hear of these.
However, what Zhou Xiaoli said next stunned him.
“Mayor, I’m a junior. What I’m about to say might offend you. I hope you won’t be angry.”
After saying that, Zhou Xiaoli lowered her voice and said, “Mayor, have you been feeling soreness in your waist recently? Do you often feel powerless when you are intimate with your wife?”
As soon as she said this, the mayor was stunned for a moment. Embarrassment and anger came and was replaced with shock in the end.
How did a young lady like her know about this?
Zhou Xiaoli was sure that she was right when she saw the change in expression on his face.
She whispered, “Mayor, don’t worry. No one else knows about this.”
The mayor finally managed to catch his breath and asked Zhou Xiaoli suspiciously, “How do you know all this?”
Zhou Xiaoli said indifferently, “Mayor, don’t panic. When I was young, I was playful and often went to the mountains to play with a crazy priest. That crazy priest taught me some Feng Shui knowledge.”
“When I went to your house yesterday and saw your family, I felt that something was wrong.”
“When I came back, I happened to pass by your ancestral grave. Only then did I know that something had happened to your ancestral grave.”
“Feng Shui?” The mayor clearly did not believe her words. “You know how to read Feng Shui?”
Zhou Xiaoli shook her head. “I can’t say that I know it all. I just learned a little from that crazy priest.”
“It’s just that I felt that something was wrong, so I made a bold guess. If I’m not wrong, water should have accumulated in the ancestral grave of the mayor’s family. That’s why your clansmen often suffer from illnesses.”
“If you don’t deal with it, I’m afraid it will endanger the descendants of your clansmen, causing them to wither and die. Their luck will be poor as well.”
Zhou Xiaoli’s words caused the mayor to fall into deep thought.
At this time, Zhou Xiaoli added, “Mayor, you must have thought that there might be a problem with the ancestral grave.”
“I’ve only learned a little. It’s reasonable that you don’t believe me. However, the problem with the ancestral grave is a big deal. Why don’t you find a Feng Shui master to take a look?”
The mayor nodded, feeling that what Zhou Xiaoli said made sense.
Therefore, after bidding farewell and returning home, he immediately asked someone to find a relatively reliable Feng Shui master.
In the end, what the Feng Shui master said was not much different from what Zhou Xiaoli said.
However, the Feng Shui master could only confirm that there was something wrong with the ancestral grave of the mayor’s family. He could not tell what was wrong or where had gone wrong.
At this moment, the mayor recalled what Zhou Xiaoli said.
He immediately called for someone to open the north section of the tomb.
When the tomb was opened, the mayor instantly froze on the spot.
As Zhou Xiaoli had said, there was water in the tomb!
When the Feng Shui master saw this, his eyes widened. “This, this, how did you know that there was a problem here?”
The mayor was still in shock. After a long time, he said, “Someone told me.”
The Feng Shui master was shocked. “Heavens! He must be a master to be able to tell accurately which direction had gone wrong. Can you introduce him to me?”
The Feng Shui master spoke in an extremely sincere and urgent manner.
All these years, ever since Master Yuan disappeared, one could no longer find a true Feng Shui master.
Most of the people on the market were freelance students like him. It was considered good enough for those who know a little about Feng Shui.
There were also many scammers who were just pretending.
That was the reason for his excitement when he heard that someone had diagnosed the problem accurately.
He wanted to know the master and most importantly, to acknowledge him as his master and learn orthodox knowledge.
However, the mayor said, “She’s not a master.”
He was even more shocked. “Not a Feng Shui master! How is this possible?”
The mayor nodded. “Yes, she said that she had only learned some superficial knowledge from a crazy priest.”
The Feng Shui master’s eyes widened. “Only superficial knowledge? How talented must he be!”
Seeing the Feng Shui master in such an excited state, the mayor said, “Those who can tell the location are considered talented. What if she could tell that the problem was all because of water?”
As soon as he said this, the Feng Shui master almost jumped up. “Then he’s not just talented. If it’s really as what Mr. Mayor had said, he must be a grandmaster!”
The mayor was shocked and excited at the same time.
He knew that a true metaphysical master could kill people without leaving a trace.
He could not help but break out in cold sweat.
His intuition told him that Zhou Xiaoli was definitely not simple!
In the end, the mayor rejected the Feng Shui master’s plea.
The next day, he went to Zhou Xiaoli’s house with a gift.
Firstly, it was to thank her. Secondly, it was to ask Zhou Xiaoli for a favor.
“I’m going to move the ancestral grave. Master, do you have any recommendations?”
Looking at the extremely respectful mayor, Zhou Xiaoli knew that he must have confirmed the problem with his ancestral grave.
She smiled and said, “Sir Mayor, don’t call me Master. It’s so embarrassing.”
The mayor chuckled. “Sigh, how can that be? Everything that you said came true. You’re a master.”
Zhou Xiaoli felt uncomfortable when he kept calling her a master.
She immediately waved her hands. “Sir Mayor, you can just call me Xiao Li. Calling me a master made me feel old.”
