The medieval fish amulet was made of wood or refined metal. It is shaped like a fish, divided into left and right sides, with the official’s name, position, and salary engraved inside. It is much more complete than the identity card in the classical era, which only had a name.
Soon, Gilberto brought a silver thread.
Leo used the silver thread to string the fish amulet and tied a specific knot.
Leo then had Gilberto bring a ladder and tie the fish amulet to the largest and brightest lamp. The fish amulet seemed to be floating and swimming under the light.
If you are careful, you will notice that the fish amulet is facing the Triskelion Toad on the rocky platform in the middle of the rockery.
After finishing these tasks, Leo came down from the ladder and walked to the coffee table, spread out the yellow paper, and poured the rootless water into the cinnabar.
Yes, the next thing Leo is going to do is draw symbols.
After spending ten minutes, Leo made four identical Talismans.
Putting the wolf hair brush back on the coffee table, Leo took one Talismans in each hand, activated the Spiritual Power, and the two Talismans burned in his hands.
With a flick of his left hand towards the Triskelion Toad on the rocky platform and a flick of his right hand towards the fish amulet hanging on the lamp, an imperceptible golden light shot into the Triskelion Toad, and an imperceptible silver light shot into the fish amulet.
After that, Leo placed the pearl and two Tongbao coins on the two remaining Talismans, and the Talismans spontaneously caught fire.
The two Talismans burned out quickly, the pearl and two Tongbao coins remained intact, and the coffee table, although burned by fire, was undamaged.
After picking up the pearl, Leo walked to the rockery and gently tossed the pearl, watching it land perfectly on the top of the rockery as if rooted in place.
Although the top of the rockery was uneven, the pearl seemed to be firmly rooted in place without moving.
Leo walked to Gilberto’s side, pointing to the Triskelion Toad in the rocky platform and said, “Gilberto, do you see any changes in the Triskelion Toad in the water compared to before?”
“Changes?” Gilberto rubbed his chin, stepped forward, and upon closer inspection, the look of astonishment on his face became more pronounced.
The Triskelion Toad in the rocky platform was found by Gilberto last year, although it has been around for a while, its condition is average, but the main issue is that this Triskelion Toad looks a bit dull.
At this moment, the dull appearance of the Triskelion Toad has disappeared, half submerged in the water, giving a lifelike feeling, as if it could jump out of the water at any moment.
“This Triskelion Toad…” Gilberto was somewhat dumbfounded.
Leo pointed to the fish amulet hanging on the lamp, “Gilberto, look at the fish amulet over here.”
Gilberto quickly looked at the fish amulet, only to see that the fish amulet hanging on the lamp was swimming slowly like a live fish, particularly eye-catching under the light.
There was not a hint of breeze in the antique shop, and Gilberto was the first to disbelieve that the fish amulet was being blown by the wind.
“Mr. Bloomer, this is too amazing, how did you do it?” Gilberto was excited because he knew what these phenomena meant.
Leo smiled mysteriously, “Gilberto, now go look at the six golden koi fish you put in the basin earlier.”
Upon hearing this, Gilberto hurriedly walked to the rockery and looked into the basin containing small lotus flowers.
At first glance, he was surprised to see the six golden koi fish he had put in the basin swimming clockwise around the base of the rockery with their heads and tails connected.
It seemed as if the six golden koi fish were being controlled and summoned by some mysterious power.
At this point, Gilberto was truly shocked.
In Gilberto’s eyes, Leo’s magical methods were probably even stronger than the geomancy master who arranged the Wealth Gathering Array, Triad Array, and Six Stars Arch for himself.
This young man was not simple.
Gilberto looked deeply at Leo and made a conclusion in his mind, determined to befriend Leo no matter what.
“Mr. Bloomer, it seems like you didn’t just repair the original geomantic layout in my shop, but you also arranged a new geomantic formation.” Gilberto, who had some knowledge about geomancy, saw through Leo’s arrangement and spoke frankly.
“What kind of geomantic formation did I set up?”
“I named this geomantic formation Accumulating Wealth Array. Your antique shop’s original Wealth Gathering Array and Six Stars Arch were unbalanced. I used the Triskelion Toad to suppress the north, and the fish amulet to hang difficulty, that is, under the first lamp. This way, it can alleviate the sharp angle conflict between Six Stars Arch and Wealth Gathering Array, and neither the Wealth Gathering Array nor the Six Stars Arch will be damaged.”
“When arranging the Triskelion Toad and fish amulet, I deliberately used the Triad Array as well, strengthening the connection between the original geomantic formations and enhancing the geomantic layout.”
“Finally, I used the pearl as a top pressure point, as pearls are a symbol of wealth. By pressing the pearl on top, and with the movement of the six golden koi fish seeking wealth, it achieves the effect of step-by-step wealth accumulation.”
Leo pointed to the fish amulet, “Gilberto, now look towards the head of the fish amulet, do you feel like the pearl on the top of the rockery seems to be spit out by the fish amulet?”
Hearing this, Gilberto moved his feet and saw exactly as Leo said.
“The goldfish spits out pearls, step by step wealth accumulation, marvelous, it is really too wonderful!” Gilberto couldn’t help but praise.
Looking at the six golden koi fish in the basin again, Gilberto still had some doubts and asked, “Mr. Bloomer, there has always been a saying that when fish leap over the Dragon Gate, they will transform into dragons. By confining the six golden koi fish in the flowerpot, won’t it affect the original geomantic formation?”
Gilberto’s questioning showed that he had some understanding of geomancy, but it was only superficial.
Leo explained, “Gilberto, the saying of fish leaping over the Dragon Gate refers to a kind of opportunity. From the perspective of geomancy, raising fish in a basin with lotus flowers is very good, symbolizing surplus every year.”
“Moreover, the reason why the six golden koi fish are swimming clockwise head to tail is because of the wealth-giving geomantic formation I set up, the excess aura generated by the Six Stars Arch will be absorbed by the koi fish.”
“Simply put, the six golden koi fish are the foundation of the balanced geomantic formation, so Gilberto, you must not let the fish die.”
“What if they do die?”
“Simple, if a few die, buy a few more to replace them, but it’s best to get pure golden koi fish, and it’s better if they don’t exceed three inches in length.”
This time, Gilberto finally understood thoroughly.
The Triskelion Toad brings wealth, the pearl gathers wealth, the fish amulet spits out wealth, what an Accumulating Wealth Array.
