Chapter 465: Feng Shui City
Legend has it that Yang Yunsong, a feng shui master of the Tang Dynasty, passed by Hengyang and was also attracted by the feng shui situation here, so he stayed for a few days and praised the excellent feng shui pattern here. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hui Yanfeng has a very important position in the feng shui pattern of Hengyang City.
Because Huiyanfeng is the first peak of Nanyue, so the religious circles of Nanyue attach great importance to Huiyanfeng, and think that it is related to the rise and fall of all Hengyang people, so they deliberately built a temple that focuses on protecting the feng shui of Hengyang City on Huiyanfeng - Yanfeng Temple, and Yanfeng Temple became a famous temple, and the incense was vigorous every day.
There is a basic pattern in the traditional feng shui landscape system, which consists of a series of elements, also using specialized terms, one of which is "water mouth".
It refers to the place where the river in front of the city comes and goes, and usually specifically the place where the water goes.
In Feng Shui, Shuikou is considered to be an important gateway related to the number of talents and the amount of wealth accumulated in a city, and special measures must be taken to "lock" and "guard".
This technique is particularly prominent in the feng shui landscape of Hengyang City.
In order to lock in feng shui, Hengyang City has formed three "water outlets".
The first "water mouth" is located in the north of the city, where the steaming water flows into the Xiangjiang River.
Shigu Mountain stretches out in the river from west to east, facing water in the southeast and north, like a peninsula.
Regarding the name of Shigu Mountain, it is said that the shape of the mountain is like a drum, and it is said that the waves hit the stone cliff like a drum.
Yu Zhongchu of the Jin Dynasty said in the "Stone Drum Poem": "The sound of the stone contains a latent sound, and the thunder shakes the nine days", which refers to the huge waves of the confluence of the two waters, slapping against the cliff wall of the Shigu Mountain, making a drum-like sound, which is extraordinary.
Shigu Mountain is a good place to climb high and overlook, in order to lock the feng shui and strengthen the role of the town, especially on the peninsula there are viewing pavilions and other buildings, and there are similar to the Wenchang Pavilion academy buildings.
Legend has it that Zhuge Liang lived here when he went to Lingling and other places to supervise military affairs.
During the Tang Yuanhe period, Li Kuan, a native of Hengyang, built a house on the mountain to study.
In the third year of Jingyou in the Northern Song Dynasty, Qin gave the plaque "Shigu Academy", which made the Shigu Academy as famous as Suiyang, Yuelu and Bailudong, and soon developed into one of the four famous academies in the country at that time.
Famous scholars such as Zhu Xi, Zhang Shi, and Wang Chuanshan all came here to give lectures, and Shigu Academy became famous for a while.
Many people explain that the reason for the prosperity and talent here is inseparable from the practice of guarding the water mouth. And the "Stone Drum River and Mountain Splendor" has also become one of the "Eight Views of Hengyang".
The second "water mouth" is located on the Hejiang Tao Sanji Rock on the west bank of the river in the north of the city, where the steaming water flows into the Xiangjiang River, and faces Shigu Mountain.
In order to strengthen the function of "water outlet" and consolidate the feng shui of Hengyang City, someone in the Ming Dynasty built a pagoda here, called "Laiyan Pagoda", this tower is a pavilion-type brick and stone tower, sits in the north and faces south, seven levels and eight flutes, and is 36 meters high.
The name of the tower is the book of the military department during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, and the book of Peng Yulin, a person from Hengyang.
This Zhenshui pagoda, which was born due to the needs of feng shui, has become an eye-catching ancient landscape in Hengyang City.
The third "water inlet" is located on the north bank of the river confluence where the Leishui River flows into the Xiangjiang River in the north of the city.
In order to further strengthen the feng shui pattern of Hengyang City, and not let the fortune and cultural luck be taken away by the water flow, during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, someone built a seven-story pagoda not far from the north bank of the confluence of the two waters, called Zhuhui Pagoda, which is another feng shui landscape that has been well preserved in Hengyang City so far, and it has become the node and symbol of the feng shui landscape of the ancient city of Hengyang together with the above-mentioned Huiyan Peak, Shigu Mountain and Laiyan Pagoda.
The environment often said in feng shui, "with mountains as the skeleton, water as the blood, plants and trees as the hair, and smoke and haze as the spirit" is a typical living environment that builds settlements according to the ecology of mountains and rivers, that is, the so-called "landscape city".
Hengyang Shigu Mountain.
It is located in the north of Hengyang City, facing the river on three sides.
The origin of its name is that the mountain is shaped like a drum, and it is said that the waves hit the stone cliff like a drum.
The original Shigu Academy on Shigu Mountain, together with Suiyang, Bailu Cave and Yuelu, is called the four major academies in the country, and after several changes, it was destroyed by the artillery fire of the Fusang people in a special period.
Standing on Shigu Mountain, but seeing that the Xiangjiang River flows through Hengyang from south to north, and the tributary steaming water flows into the Xiangjiang River from west to east in the north of the city, and the confluence of the two rivers is Shigu Mountain.
"Shigu rivers and mountains are splendid", and in feng shui, Shigu Mountain is a water outlet in Hengyang, playing the role of a guard.
Nanyue Hengshan stretches from south to north from Hengyang to Changsha, with 72 peaks, with undulating peaks and peaks, such as a giant dragon winding.
Hengyang City is based on the first peak of Nanyue, Huiyan Peak, and expands from south to north.
There is a ring belt of the Xiangjiang River in the east of the city, and there is steamed water in the northwest to inject.
The mountains are clear and blue, the water is meandering, and the city of Hengyang is beautiful and verdant.
The three water outlets of Shigu Mountain, Laiyan Pagoda and Zhuhui Pagoda are not only the scenery of the city, but also the town that guards Hengyang's wealth and cultural fortune.
That's why I say so much.
It is because of this huge feng shui formation that is actually driving behind the scenes is the Meishan faction.
For thousands of years, Hengyang has been the stronghold of the Meishan faction.
This is well known in the Feng Shui world.
However, few people would have thought that the core sect of the Meishan Sect would be hidden here.
"The small is hidden in the wilderness, and the big is hidden in the city. ”
Qin Feng sighed.
Reach the old town.
Qin Feng stepped out of the taxi.
Walking slowly.
Feel the familiar images from the memories of your past life.
All of this is very familiar.
In his previous life, Qin Feng practiced the secret art of Meishan.
For the core sect of the Meishan faction, he is very familiar.
It's just that in this life, the trajectory of his life has shifted.
It's no longer the same as in the previous life.
Qin Feng walked slowly for about half an hour.
I came to a teahouse.
An old teahouse.
The antique building obviously has some age.
There are a lot of people in the teahouse, and there are people singing and telling stories in the hall.
There is no difference from the layout of ancient times, and the picture is a lively one.
It's not the same thing to compare it to a quiet teahouse.
Qin Feng glanced at it and walked in slowly.
This teahouse is a contact point of the Meishan faction.
Although the Meishan faction is hidden, it is impossible to isolate this world.
You can only do it by staying in the deep mountains and old forests.
Therefore, it is normal for such a teahouse to exist.
Qin Feng walked in.
The waiter dressed as the second shopkeeper immediately shouted.
"Your honor, sir, please take a seat. ”
The shouting, with the costume, is very emotional.
Qin Feng nodded and followed.
A private seat was opened.
The shopkeeper followed.
"Master, what do you need?"
"One or two feng shui beans, two drinks of chaotic water, and three cakes of all things. Qin Feng said lightly.
As soon as the shopkeeper heard Qin Feng's words, his face suddenly changed.
"Fellow Daoist, wait a minute, it'll be fine right away. ”
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he hurriedly left the seat.
Qin Feng squinted his eyes and waited quietly.
This sentence of "one or two feng shui beans, two drinks of chaotic water, and three cakes of all things" is actually a Taoist sentence, one life is two, two is three, and three is everything.
To put it bluntly, it's actually just the password language of the Meishan faction.
