Section 39 The Tiangang Luo Sutra
…… Thirteen and Nanfei naturally didn't know much about all this, and at this time they were strolling around an old street, feeling the weight of being washed by history. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The mottled earthen walls, the old side houses, the Zhenzi noodle restaurant on the street, and the uncle who sells yellow buns at the top of his voice...... The wall with the words dismantled, in front of a gray-haired physiognographer, a bench and a red cloth, printed with nine palace gossip, a bamboo stick, asking for marriage, asking about the future, and looking at the official fortune.
Just afternoon, on a hot day, there were sparse figures walking around on the street, the physiognomy of the rivers and lakes held a fan in his hand, huddled in the corner, hot and sweaty, the old man still adhered to his livelihood, the ancestors had a big business of hexagram and three texts, but even if they only received three yuan and three today, no one cared.
The diviner is a teacher, who does not suffer from widowhood, but is lonely and adrift all his life, and for him, it seems that he has long been accustomed to this environment.
Nan Fei and Thirteen had been standing under the wall for a while, and Nan Fei and Thirteen had their eyes resting on an inconspicuous compass next to the old man's chair.
The compass was very old, wrapped in a worn-out red cloth, and the surface was also covered with the soot residue dropped by the old man, like garbage thrown aside.
Such an appearance, if you roughly sweep it, most people think that it is just a broken compass, but in the eyes of the thirteen, the compass that seems to be rough in shape has found a lot of strangeness in his eyes.
This compass is not an ordinary workmanship, but made of hundreds of years of wild chestnut tree old roots, the shape is like an oval fish plate, the narrow mouth is located in two directions, there is a pair of ear-like roots, is polished into a dragon's whisker mouth, in the form of a double dragon playing with pearls, implying the meaning of looking for the dragon's point.
Therefore, when looking for feng shui treasures, the compass of the dragon's head and tail is often used to find the direction, so the compass is also called the dragon hunting plate.
It was not until the Tang Dynasty scholar Yuan Tiangang and his disciple Li Chunfeng corrected the Tiangan and Earthly Branches that the compass was further perfected, so this kind of compass with the dragon head title Sinan is also called Tiangang Pan.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in order to make the compass easier to make, the heavenly master Liu Wenbo improved Sinan, and this kind of Tiangang disk with a dragon became more and more rare.
"Good guy, it's actually Tiangangpan!" Thirteen was secretly shocked, although he didn't need a compass, and Nanfei also had two good compasses, but when he encountered this compass, he still had to find a way to get it.
In addition, the compass exuded a vague aura just now, which made Nan Fei's heart move, this thing is not an ordinary thing.
"Young man, do you want to see marriage, or do you want a future?" the old man knocked on the cigarette pipe on his mud shoes, and crooked his eyes to look at the thirteenth in sunglasses, this hot day, the customers were in a hurry, it was rare for someone to be so close to his stall, and he couldn't help but open his mouth for a business.
Nan Fei glanced at the compass, and then pretended to look at the red cloth sticks and other things on the ground, revealing a look of not believing in fate, and then took over the conversation and said, "Uncle, what do you want for this marriage, and what is the future?"
Thirteen watched Nanfei from the side, and wanted to see Nanfei's methods, not to mention watching from the side.
"Well...... old man saw that Nan Fei's eyes were bright and seemed to be very interested, so he filled his cigarette stick with cigarettes and took a few puffs.
"It's not that I said, young man, in the alley of this feng shui street, my old man's signature, that is the most accurate, like your age, if it depends on marriage...... I have to look at your left-hand marriage line, if you want to ask about wealth, you need to look at the court, if you are asking the good luck, you can draw lots, and I will help you solve it. The old man said to himself, and his somewhat cloudy eyes were colored, "Young man, I rarely see a face like yours, and I'm still studying, right?"
Thirteen originally felt that these fortune tellers didn't have much ability now, and when they heard the other party use the word 'knock' to ask Nanfei, they also smiled and didn't say anything.
There are many ways to tell the hexagram, and there are several methods such as knocking, beating, reviewing, thousand, longing, and selling.
The so-called knocking is to use some seemingly irrelevant words to knock on the side in order to listen to the truth and reality.
Nanfei himself is a feng shui master, and he is also well aware of the deceptive ways of the warlocks in the rivers and lakes, so he kept his mouth shut, and wanted the old man to eat a closed door.
Of course, Nanfei is also very curious about what kind of words the old man will say next, for example, some novels mention the understanding of ambiguity, 'the father dies before the mother' sentence, or move out of the ancestors, 'Your ancestral grave is evergreen pine, and your descendants will be good for blessings.' Or, 'Your seal is black, and sooner and there will be a plague of blood.'" 'Yunyun.
But what Nan Fei didn't expect was that the old man saw Nan Fei smiling and silent, so he rubbed the tobacco leaves, "Thick fingers, long fingers holding a hoe, holding a pen beam, young man! You must still be studying." ”
Nan Fei looked at his hand, it was indeed slender, but so what, the hand of the scholar, it must be more delicate and clean than the crop man, as long as it is a person, pay attention to observation, you can see it, thinking of this, Nan Fei felt that this old man couldn't even say the words of the guest, and his ability was not enough, so he suddenly lost interest, and glanced at the compass wrapped in red cloth.
"Uncle, what is this thing, a compass?"
"Young man, I didn't beat you, you beat me!" The old man spat out a puff of foul smoke, "This is the guy who eats with Lao Luo, do you tell fortunes or draw lots? You don't believe me, do you? Lao Luo will show you a hand! Lao Luo will first say your face, the baby looks at the heavenly spirit and looks at the head, young man, you are a rich and noble person, but the ancestors are a little imperfect, and you are ......poor when you are young."
Thirteen saw the old man looking at the face, and did not forget to pinch the thumb of his left hand in the middle finger and ring knuckle knuckles, I couldn't help but be a little funny, what yin and morality are incomplete, when I was young, I was poor, and now young people, who is rich who does not wear a famous brand, like me, who has worn a dress for two years, at first glance, it is a poor egg, not a poor life, is it still a rich family pretending to be poor?
'Life is not cheating, the sky is not easy to live' A person's exterior and interior are complementary to each other, and people with a little experience can see it differently.
But when Nan Fei saw this old man, he could see at a glance that Nan Fei was interested in his compass, which made Nan Fei a little confused, and secretly recalled where the flaws were exposed, and said that the physiognomy master had the strongest ability to observe words and colors, and it was true.
"Uncle, don't you need to tell you the eight characters of your birthday. Nanfei saw that the old man was still delaying, so he couldn't help but make up a sentence.
"No, old man, in addition to the hexagram and physiognomy, I also know the six fingers of plum blossoms...... I said you are rich and rich, and you are ...... Huh?"
The old man suddenly stopped moving, put his fingertips on his ring finger, opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Nanfei in a daze, and then took out three copper coins and threw them on the red cloth, two yuan on one side, showing 'Kun Kun Qian', the old man's complexion changed again, extinguished the fireworks on the pipe, and then took out a copper coin full of traces of time to join it, and then threw it, two yuan and two sides, arranged at intervals, showing 'Kun Qiankun Qian'.
Thirteen saw the money hexagram on the red cloth, and couldn't help but sigh, this money hexagram is taken from the "Qiankun" in the gossip direction of "Qiankun" represents the positive and negative, and different combinations correspond to different interpretations, although this "Kun Kun Qian" is a reverse hexagram, it belongs to the separation hexagram, the good and the bad are undecided, how to interpret the hexagram, it depends on the matter of the hexagram and the heart of the diviner to get the answer, so the thirteen do not think that this hexagram can be determined as a fierce hexagram.
As for the copper coin two yuan and two sides of the 'Kun Qiankun Qian', let Nan Fei stunned, Qiankun one yin and one yang, one reverse and one positive, the Qiankun upside down, repeated, belongs to the Kan hexagram, this kind of hexagram has ten thousand solutions, also known as the change of hexagram, nine murders and one auspicious, nine murders are all great evil, one auspicious is auspicious, so only the master of the three questions of his heart can know the true meaning, but this hexagram must not be said and the person who asks the hexagram to listen.
"Don't count! Don't count!" The old man's voice changed slightly, muttered to himself for a while, simply held the stick holder in the palm of his hand, swayed from side to side, his eyes closed one by one, and the sign fell to the ground, the old man's hand picked it up with some trembling, only to see that the sign said, 'Shang Jiu and Xia Jiu, lonely sign, no solution, no release. The old man suddenly opened his eyes, didn't look at Thirteen and Nanfei again, shook his cigarette pouch, rolled up the red cloth on the ground, brushed his sleeves and left, he turned out to be a lame man!
The old man's actions made Nan Fei not react for a while, looked down, and found that the compass that the old man pressed the red cloth forgot to take away, so he hurriedly picked it up and chased after him, "Uncle, why don't you count it, and also, your things have fallen." ”
"What's it? It's a fart, don't follow me, I won't take your money!"
"Uncle, why is this?" "It's not easy to die, the old man will never do this business again, and you kid don't have to ask why, as for this compass...... The old man's eyes showed a little vicissitudes, "You like it, take it and play well, don't bother me?" The old man put the compass back in Nanfei's arms, and was about to turn around and leave.
