Burying living people was an ancient evil technique in feng shui.
This was a secret construction technique. The process was terrifying and evil. It was said that it was first invented by a Feng Shui master.
It was said that when an official was given the task to build a bridge, he encountered a situation where he could not drive a pile into the ground. At that time, he found a Feng Shui master. The Feng Shui master claimed that he had disturbed and angered the god of soil. If he wanted to solve the problem, there was only one way.
That was to sacrifice living people.
According to the Feng Shui master, it was believed that there was vitality in the soil. Every time the soil was dug up, it would destroy the feng shui of the place and attract bad luck. When the building was built on the bones of the dead, it would disturb their rest and anger them. Therefore, accidents often happen during the construction process.
