Tang Wuxin nodded, then shook his head again.

This mud pill palace is easy to understand, and the center of this nine palaces is called the middle palace, also known as the mud pill palace. Wen Jia means that this mud ball should obviously be placed in the mud pill palace. And Tang Yi said that it is made of porcelain clay from the Ru kiln in the Central Plains, which happens to fit the Middle Palace.

The other eight balls are to be placed into the eight remaining squares of the corresponding Bagua nature.

Wen Jia was right, so Tang Wuxin nodded. But he shook his head again, meaning that it didn't seem to be working.

"Although I don't know much, but I have also read Mr. Nan Huaijin's "I Ching Miscellaneous", this gossip is divided into congenital and acquired, even if it is based on nature, before determining which one, it still can't be put right. That's what it means, right? Tang Yi pondered for a while and said to Tang Wuxin.

"If you talk about a fixed pattern, it's basically like that." Tang Wuxin answered.

This gossip is actually very complicated, and if it is really theoretical, it will not be able to be finished for three days and three nights. To put it simply, the innate gossip is rumored to have been painted by Fuxi, according to the laws of the Heavenly Dao. And the gossip of the day after tomorrow was painted by King Ji Chang of Zhou Wen, and someone participated in the evolution.

Bagua has eight directions and also has eight basic attributes.

The innate gossip is based on the south, so the south of the heavens and the north of the earth, that is, the dry position in the gossip is in the south, the kun is in the north, the sunrise in the east is the departure, the sunset and the moonrise in the west are kan, the northwest Kunlun is the gen, the southeast ocean is dui, the southwest is windy Xun, and the northeast thunder is the earthquake.

But if it is the acquired gossip, then it becomes the northwest for the dry, the southwest for the kun, the south for the li, the north for the kan, the northeast for the gen, the west for dui, the southeast for Xun, and the east for the earthquake.

The reason why the northwest is dry is because the later King Wen of Zhou, the then Xibo Hou Jichang came from Qishan, which was in the northwest of the Shang capital Chaoge at that time. Fengming Qishan, Great Zhou Xing.

This direction is easy to determine, and there is a compass on the compass, which can be seen at a glance.

Wen Jia nodded and said: "If you follow the innate gossip, the determination of the nature can be like this: Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, the black coal essence ball should be placed in the southern dry position, and the yellow Tianhuang ball should be placed in the northern Kun position. In my opinion, the red sun and the white moon, carnelian balls and white jade balls should be placed in the off-position and in the difficult position; Green mountains and blue seas, malachite balls and Lantian jade balls should be placed in the Gen position and the exchange position; Colorless is wind, purple is thunder, and crystal balls and purple agate balls should be placed in the Xun position and vibration position. ”

However, if you put it according to the gossip of the day after tomorrow, except for the middle palace mud pill, the others are all messed up.

Tang Wuxin frowned and pondered.

Tang Yi said: "There is also a way to place the jade according to the origin of different jade. Take the innate gossip as an example, for example, coal essence is produced in the northeast, which should be placed in the earthquake position; Tian Huang is produced in southeastern Fujian Province and should be placed in the exchange position; Chalcedony is produced in the southwest, Xunxi; Hetian jade is produced in the northwest, Gen position; Malachite is produced in the south, dry position; Lantian jade is produced in the west, Kan position; Purple agate is produced in the north, Kun position; Crystals are produced on the east coast and are out of place. ”

Listening to Tang Yi's words, Tang Wuxin suddenly raised his head, indeed, Tang Yi's way of placing it seemed to be more interesting. From the analysis point of view, Wen Jia basically determines the attributes according to the color, and then determines the direction, while Tang Yi directly determines the direction according to the origin of the jade ball.

However, just because it's interesting doesn't mean it's right.

To put it bluntly, this is a contest between the ancients and their wisdom, and this contest is very unfair, because the three of them have no idea what the eldest brother thought at that time.

In this way, there are now four ways to place them, and the only thing that remains unchanged is that the middle palace can place clay balls made of porcelain clay.

"Come on, come on, drink some water first, and then think about it." Wen Jia took out the bottled mineral water and handed it to Tang Yi and Tang Wuxin.

They came this time with a backpack for each of them, and in addition to the necessary tools, there were also high-energy foods such as water and chocolate. Fuber went up the mountain with a sleeping bag and a light tent, and he also left enough money for Tintin and gave it to his neighbors. Tintin often climbs mountains and can also go to Faber during the day.

No matter how bad it is, it's all to this extent, you can go up and down again.

The three of them drank some water, but their eyes kept staring at the nine-square grid on the bluestone.

Time passed imperceptibly, but the three of them still couldn't make up their minds.

Judging from the current situation, it seems to be a multiple-choice question, choose one out of four.

However, Tang Wuxin is still thinking about it, maybe there are other possibilities, not necessarily just the two fixed patterns of innate and acquired. If this is set up by Zhang Chu Zhang Manxu according to the current situation at that time, then it has to be studied by contacting the heavenly and terrestrial branches, and even life, death, rest, injury, Du, Jing, shock, and opening.

In this way, it is not a multiple-choice question, but an incomparably complex essay question: please combine the theory of the Nine Palaces Bagua and the various situations in the late Ming Dynasty to discuss and analyze the correct position where the nine balls should be located.

What's more, this essay question must be answered with a perfect score. The answer is still subjective.

There is still only one hint in this essay question, that is, it is correct to place mud pills in the middle palace.

Coincidentally, back then, a group of peasant rebels who were regarded by the imperial court as mud-legged thugs had indeed occupied a place in the Central Plains.

"Since Zhang Chu has made annotations on the "Treatise on Ancient Things", it shows that he understands antique jade. Since it's a play, I'm afraid it will be related to the origin of this jade, so I say that this is the most likely. Tang Yi said at this time.

"I thought about it and agreed with you. It would be nice if I could try it, but I'm afraid I can't try it! In case the first try is wrong, the game is over, the door can't be opened, we can admit bad luck, if this person is sealed in the mountain, it will be over! Wen Jia said.

Tang Wuxin still didn't speak, but judging from his expression, he didn't have much to do.

Tang Yi withdrew his gaze from the small ball, and took a closer look at the depressions of Jiugonggeli, and he found that there was a raised dot in the bottom center of these depressions, and these dots did not seem to have a bluestone texture, but a metallic luster.

Of course, Tang Yi didn't dare to touch these little points easily. Since it is a mechanism, it must be set up more precisely.

The three of them looked at the bluestone nine-square grid, the small cave was very quiet, and there was basically only the sound of panting.

At this time, a "gurgling" sound came.

"I'm sorry, I'm hungry!" Wen Jia touched her stomach, then raised her hand and looked at her watch, ", it's more than two o'clock in the afternoon!" No wonder! ”

Tang Wuxin knocked his forehead, "Let's eat something first!" ”

"Come!" Wen Jia took out chocolate and beef jerky from her bag. The three of them each ate a few cushions and smacked them.

"It's not the way to go on like this!" After Tang Yi finished eating, he slapped his hands and directly picked up the mud balls made of porcelain clay, "Since everyone in the Middle Palace thinks it's okay, put it on first, and look at the smooth Jiugong with anxiety!" ”
