This residence actually laid a "net of heaven and earth" at the door of the house, what is this going to do?
There are 7 monitors installed alone, as well as 7 black smart doorbells, 7 Tai Chi Bagua and Bagua mirrors. Take a closer look at the back gate, and there is also a giant gossip pressure array. This is not enough, there are also sides of the iron gate, and the main thing is to strengthen supervision from multiple angles, just to create a "super safe house" with "no dead ends in all directions".

What is a bit confusing is that with such an obvious gossip Tianyan array, the residents actually put reminders on the walls on both sides of the gate to pay attention to monitoring.

In order to seek the peace of the house or security issues, many people will hang gossip and install surveillance at the door, but such a strange scene of the iron gate really frightens many netizens:
Good, good... In this battle, both people and ghosts have to be guarded against, and everyone begins to think crankily, it can't be a bad thing inside, right?
Some people suspect that the occupants have offended both the yin and yang worlds.
Guess that the opposite side may be a murderous house.
Some people even think of the superweapon overlord "Take your life 3000" in the movie "Domestic Zero Zero Paint".
Netizens have dug deep and haven't found out the reason yet, and it seems that there is only one answer that can be explained - superstition. After all, superstition has permeated every bit of life in Hong Kong.
How superstitious is it?
To be the most exaggerated, Wah Fu Estate must be on the list.
There is no temple in Wah Fu Estate, but there are 8,000 statues of gods on a slope. There are all kinds of different folk beliefs here, Guanyin, Guan Gong, Buddha, God of Wealth...... Layer upon layer, sitting on the entire hillside.

Why are there so many idols?
It is said that Wah Fu Estate used to be very unlucky, not only the Chicken Coop Bay Cemetery, but also a mass grave in Hong Kong during the British rule.
"Someone woke up and found himself lying on the ground" similar haunted legends one after another, and Wah Fu Estate gathered all kinds of immortals in order to protect themselves. Over the decades, residents moved in and out, and the idols of the gods were abandoned on the slopes.

In the photo, it can be seen that he placed incense, candles, clothes, and paper in the four corners of the house, and after completing the ceremony, he "burned clothes" in the house, and the house was filled with smoke.
However, some netizens pointed out that the sacrifices prepared by the Hong Kong man were insufficient, and the time was not right. The Hong Kong man said: He doesn't understand, but he just wants peace of mind.

When it comes to worshipping God in public housing, the Hong Kong man operates in his own house, while some residents openly "open altars" to worship God in the corridors of public areas.
Under normal circumstances, public housing residents are not allowed to worship in public areas, and the ingots and candles lit outside the house are as smoky as filming, and the residents of the next house are strongly smoked.
Even though he was complained by his neighbors many times, he was still indifferent, and he insisted on only one purpose in his heart - to worship God.
