In accordance with an ancient proverb from China, it is said that "a person lights the flame and spirits extinguish it." Hu Ba Yi possesses extensive knowledge in Feng Shui, particularly in the arrangement of burial sites, which he acquired from an ancient manual passed down through generations in his family. This expertise proved invaluable when he found himself trapped in a snowslide in Tibet. It also came to his aid when he and his companions joined an archaeological expedition to investigate the mysterious "ghost cave" situated in the Taklamakan Desert. While guiding the team through perilous obstacles, he couldn't shake the feeling that someone had anticipated their every move and orchestrated the traps and concealed passageways accordingly.
