63. Reverse hexagram
Xue Mingyan said: "This is a reverse hexagram. ”
I asked, "What is a hexagram?"
Xue Mingyan said: "Why can a blank piece of paper have the effect of driving away evil spirits, in addition to the effect of runes, most of them are because of the power of hexagrams, I use reverse hexagrams to inject hexagrams into the paper, when I use this paper is a hexagram, just like the rune paper you usually see, because sometimes the situation is very urgent, there is no time to start the hexagram, you can save a lot of time and effort with such hexagram paper, and there are also gossip mirrors like you often see, which is also one of this techniques, but that is more complicated." Because that one uses a hexagram array. ”
I asked, "Then what are you doing with this hexagram now?"
Xue Mingyan said: "Just in case, I will lay a hexagram here to prevent something unknown from breaking in." ”
I'm not sure how to look at the hexagram of the reverse hexagram now, so I can't see what kind of hexagram Xue Mingyan did. But since he said that this is to prevent the intrusion of unknown things, then most of them should be a hexagram to exorcise evil spirits.
I saw that he had made not just one hexagram paper, but six of them, and placed them in six hidden places, and if I hadn't seen them with my own eyes, I would never have known that the hexagram paper was hidden in these inconspicuous places, and I wouldn't have noticed it at all.
I saw that there were six hexagrams, so I asked, "I remember that there are twelve images in the twelve earthly trigrams, and each elephant has six hexagrams." You can't be a hexagram like this, right?"
Xue Mingyan glanced at me: "Do you still know the twelve earth hexagrams?"
I didn't answer, I didn't know if he was mocking me or really thinking I didn't know, and then he asked me, "Since an elephant only has six trigrams, why does the elephant have eight trigrams, which make up the acquired eight trigrams?"
I was really stopped by him when he asked like this, the last time I heard the explanation of the twelve earth hexagrams, I didn't think about it so much, and then I faintly felt that it was wrong, and now Xue Mingyan asked like this, I realized that what I knew didn't seem to be all.
Xue Mingyan lived: "Because there is a hidden hexagram and a change hexagram in the elephant, these two hexagrams themselves do not exist but affect the changes of the six hexagrams, just like yin and yang affect everything, and they do not exist in reality but affect all things. ”
The first time I heard such an explanation, Yiyang knew more, he said: "I remember that there are four sides of heaven and earth in the eight trigrams, but there are no two hexagrams of life and death, and after there are more change hexagrams and hidden hexagrams, life and death are integrated, that is, the six trigrams of heaven and earth are full of life and death, and the same life and death are contained in the four directions of heaven and earth, so the gossip is divided into eight gates, and this is how the door of life and the door of death come, isn't it?"
Xue Mingyan said: "Life is change, death is hidden." Life and death alternate, there is life and death, and there is death and life, this is the change of hexagram and hidden hexagram, corresponding to heaven and earth, and connected with the Quartet, it is precisely because of the addition of life and death that the six hexagrams can become part of the life chart. ”
I heard Xue Mingyan say this, and I asked, "Then what is the hexagram array of the six hexagrams you just laid out?"
He said, "It's just a small skill for carving insects. ”
After saying that, he continued to walk inside, and I asked Yiyang, "Can you see that?"
Yiyang also shook his head, I looked at this arranged hexagram array, this hexagram array is on the way we must enter Taiping Town. As long as you enter here, you will inevitably touch this hexagram array, and I have to say that Xue Mingyan really knows this place very well, even to the point where he knows it well.
Just as I was thinking like this, suddenly Xue Mingyan shouted: "Be careful!"
He suddenly spoke, my feet that had been lifted were hanging in the air and did not step down, and he immediately pulled me over, I saw that there seemed to be something faintly flashing on the ground, but I couldn't see clearly, something abnormal, Xue Mingyan picked up a hexagram paper and threw it down, I immediately saw two hexagrams colliding with each other. The hexagram paper was quickly devoured, and when the two hexagrams collided, I saw this complete hexagram, but I didn't immediately recognize what it was, as if the hexagram path was a little strange, and it was very different from the ordinary hexagram.
Xue Mingyan said: "This is a reverse hexagram. ”
It's a reverse hexagram again, although I know that many times I use the reverse hexagram, including myself, when I was in the underground palace, I also used the reverse three yin hexagrams to seal the yin on Xue Mingyan's body. But at that time, it seemed that someone was manipulating me, and I didn't really use the reverse hexagram myself, so naturally I couldn't distinguish it.
Xue Mingyan said: "This is not an ordinary reverse hexagram, but it is made by the technique of reverse yin and yang. ”
I asked, "Reverse yin and yang?"
Xue Mingyan said: "It is to do the yang hexagram when the sun is empty, and do the yin hexagram when the sun is in the sky, turn yin into yang, and turn yang into yin, what seems to be a yang hexagram is actually a yin hexagram, and what seems to be a yin hexagram is actually a yang hexagram." Many diviners like to use this kind of reverse yin and yang hexagram the most, especially in the hexagram array, to break the hexagram array, you have to find the hexagram eye to break the array, and the hexagram array that cannot find the hexagram eye can avoid the power of the hexagram array by finding the birth door. Many diviners will use the reverse yin and yang method to say that the yin and yang in the hexagram array are reversed, and life and death are also reversed. Once you step inside, you will never recover. ”
I had heard about this, and I asked, "So what is this hexagram on the ground doing now?"
Xue Mingyan didn't touch this hexagram again, he said: "It's just a single reverse hexagram. And it uses the mirror reverse yin and yang method, that is to say, there is a yin and yang mirror here, in addition to this reverse hexagram, there are many reverse hexagrams here, and these reverse hexagrams together form a hexagram array. ”
I looked at this desolate place, and felt a slight coolness in my heart, it seems that the question that Xue Mingyan thought of when he came in, other people also thought of it, so there are people who have been here recently, and they have also laid out a larger hexagram array to prevent other people from entering.
Xue Mingyan said, "Could it be him?"
He groaned to himself, and we were so confused that we didn't know who he was talking about, and I asked, "Who are you talking about?"
Xue Mingyan didn't speak, as long as he didn't answer, there would basically be no answer, I asked, "What is here?" The cost of medicine is so big to prevent people from coming in?"
Xue Mingyan said: "I don't know, if the thing you are looking for is not here, then it can only be in Fengjiazhuang." ”
I vaguely felt that Xue Mingyan wanted to find out if it was also a Taiping technique, I glanced at Yi Yang, Yi Yang and I should have similar thoughts, and his expression also told me the same, so I asked him: "Are you looking for a Taiping technique?"
Who knew that I said this, Xue Mingyan glanced at me: "Taiping Technique, what do I want that thing for?"
I immediately got a negative answer, and I felt a little unguessed. After all, I don't know what happened in this Taiping Town.
After that, Xue Mingyan stayed where he was, and he didn't go inside, and I saw that there were also some dilapidated houses and buildings inside, compared to the foundation, I think it was about the same, and it looked like a cemetery even more than a cemetery.
Then I heard Xue Mingyan and Yiyang say, "You show me the road map." ”
Yiyang gave the route map to Xue Mingyan, Xue Mingyan looked at it, his brows furrowed, and I asked, "What are you looking at?"
Xue Mingyan said: "I'm afraid things have become more tricky. ”
Xue Mingyan's words are still reliable, and when he says this, it means that the situation has indeed become serious, after all, he is not the kind of alarmist person who speaks.
I asked, "What happened?"
Xue Mingyan showed me the road map to Yi Yang and me, he pointed to the road map and said, "You see this is Fengjiazhuang, this is the cemetery we saw before we came in, and this is Taiping Town, do you see anything?"
I seemed to think that I had seen such a position, but I couldn't remember it for a while, so I still said, "Sanyin!"
Xue Mingyan said: "Yes, it is the Three Yin, the reverse hexagram array we see is part of the Three Yin, the cemetery is evil, and Fengjiazhuang is Yin, then the place where we are is evil, and all of us are now in the Three Yin Array!"
I felt a sudden chill down my spine, and I said, "It has something to do with the three evil hexagrams of the earth yin?"
Xue Mingyan lived: "Not only is it related, but it is also evolved from the three evil hexagrams of the earth, once the three yin arrays are formed, there is no grass in a radius of 100 miles, which is why this place has been abandoned for nearly a hundred years, but there are no weeds, you see the weeds on the ground, they are all dead grass in the past." ”
