Looking at the dim residential ornaments, Fang Yuan couldn't help but sigh, time was really like a pig-killing knife, the knife pierced the heart. Not only can't people stop it, but also the building of the house is also defeated by the knife.

In Fang Yuan's sigh, everyone also walked briskly across the patio and came to the main hall under the guidance of the villagers. It is a spacious hall with eight pillars standing on all sides, which has the meaning of all directions.

Of course, the most important thing is directly in front of the hall, where the ancestral tablets of the villagers are enshrined. At the back of the tablet is a flat wood carving of the Three Treasures Buddha.

The so-called Three Treasure Buddhas are also divided into horizontal and vertical. The Three Treasures of the Horizontal Buddha refers to the Central Shakyamuni Buddha, the Eastern Medicine Buddha, and the Western Amitabha Buddha. The Three Treasures Buddha is the Buddha who burned the lamp in the past, the Buddha Shakyamuni in the present, and the Maitreya Buddha in the future.

Now the villagers' homes worship the Buddha of the three treasures, the wide flat panel is like a screen, under the skillful hand of the skilled craftsman to carve and paint, the three Buddhas sit in it, it can be said that the treasure is solemn, very solemn.

However, after years of incense offerings, under the influence of fireworks, the three big Buddhas are naturally a little black. In addition, the villagers may be a little lazy, or dare not be disrespectful to the Buddha, so they rarely sweep the dust, so that the shallow carving is covered with a thick layer of ash, which makes people feel that they can't bear to look at it directly.

Anyway, the others looked at it twice, and they didn't look any more.

At this time, the villagers took cups and poured water, and distributed them to Fang Yuan and others one by one. After doing this, he smiled and said, "Uncle Fan, wait a minute, I'll go and bring the books." To be honest, I'm not highly educated. The notes written by my grandfather are the kind of traditional characters again. I don't understand it either, and I'll need your advice later. ”

"Well said, well said." Fan Li smiled: "You go and get it." Everybody waits. ”

The villager nodded and immediately turned away. After a few minutes, he hurried back with a few more books in his hand, and they were the older ones that bound the line.

Similar to this line book, Fang Yuan is naturally no stranger. Many of the feng shui notes handed down by his grandfather were cut into pages of rice paper. Then fold it into the form of a butterfly, and then bind it into a book with staples and stitches.

Ancient books, whether printed or not. Or a manuscript, basically in this form.

At this time, seeing the villagers take out the books, Fan Li immediately greeted them. Stretching out his hand, he said, "Show me." ”

"Uncle Fan. Be careful, these things are a little crispy after a long time. The villagers reminded him and handed over a few books to Fan Li.

"Don't worry, I understand." Fan Li took the book, and did not rush to look through it, but placed them on the clean table one by one, and then carefully studied the words on the cover.

Others also rushed in. Look down and watch together.

The ancients were very particular about binding books. Each page is equal in size. The cover should also be wrapped on the outside, so that the text on the page will not be rubbed when you take the book.

In addition, on the cover, there must be some text written so as not to be confused with other books. This is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients, and after many generations of accumulation and summary, it has the appearance of the books that everyone sees now.

"You Family Tree."

"Maotang Notes!"

From the text on the cover, you can know that the villagers are not lying, the book is indeed a long time ago, the font is neat, written with a brush, but because it has been hidden for a long time, the pen and ink are a little dull, full of quaint meaning.

After some scrutiny, Fan Li reached out and opened the blue-blue cover, the pages inside had turned yellow, and there were a little traces of hair. It's no wonder that the villagers told everyone to be careful with their care, otherwise it would be really easy to ruin the books.

Everyone put aside the family tree, looked directly at the contents of the notebook, and found that the beginning was a summary of the villagers' grandfather's situation in his own family. For example, the origin, development, and current situation of his own You clan.

After Fang Yuan saw it, he realized that the Minnan You clan actually originated from the Wang clan. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the monarch of Fujian was killed by his subordinates in a mutiny due to brutality, selling his official beard and tyrannical levies. Then the Min Kingdom fell into a long period of civil strife, and the descendants of the Min royal family integrated into the people one after another, changing the king's surname to You......

The You branch of this village is the descendant of King Min back then. Of course, whether this is true or false is impossible to verify. Anyway, that's what people say, and the context is clear, so you can't believe it.

All in all, the You family took root in southern Fujian, lived separately in various places, passed to the fifth generation, and in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, some people participated in the anti-Japanese team, and made great contributions, and were rewarded by the imperial court, becoming the general soldier of a town.

The chief soldier was the ancestor of the village, he was transferred to the nearby as an official, and then brought the clansmen to move over, chose a place to live, lived and worked in peace and contentment, and spread out the branches and leaves, so that the current village was born.

Since it is a place to live, it is natural that the traces of feng shui masters are indispensable. The villager's grandfather also recorded in his notes that in order to be able to prosper his family, the chief soldier specially invited someone to Ganzhou to pay a lot of money to invite a famous feng shui master to come back, and asked him to help select the site of Kanding Village.

After three months of trekking through mountains and rivers, the feng shui master finally chose this place as the site of the village among the vast mountains, and personally planned the layout, and was busy for a year or two before the village layout was completed.

From here, we can know that although the ancient feng shui master was respected, but it was absolutely useless, since he was entrusted by the lord and took the gift money from others, then he must work hard, hard, and hard, so as not to lose his reputation.

Anyway, he was so busy vomiting blood that the feng shui pattern of the village was completed. The chief soldier came to accept, and the feng shui master naturally explained in detail the feng shui shape of the village, telling him that this is the trend of auspicious clouds holding the moon.

The surrounding mountains are gentle and ethereal like auspicious clouds, holding up the valley guards as large as a disc in the middle, and the gurgling streams meandering into the moon in the water, which is definitely the best feng shui blessed land. Settle down here, and the children and grandchildren can come out in large numbers, and each generation is stronger than the next.

After the elaboration, the feng shui master also left an inscription poem. In the mountains of auspicious clouds holding the moon, there is a fate and a blessing to know shame. The auspicious day and the good day are yin and yang, and the descendants of Junjie Yao Xidong!

After some evaluation, the general soldier was greatly satisfied, and after rewarding the feng shui master, he happily took the clan to live there, and then multiplied for hundreds of years, until the generation of the villager's grandfather.

"Xiangyun holding the moon?" Seeing this, Fan Li frowned, turned his head and said, "Master Fang, is that so?" ”

“…… Not quite like that! Fang Yuan hesitated: "Xiangyun is understandable, it should be the mountain next to the village." But is the moon in the water a pond in the village? ”

"That pond wasn't a pond, it was a small lake...... "The villager interjected, "just look at it." ”

"Oh."

Fang Yuan and Fan Li looked at it again, and saw that the villager's grandfather also had some introductions about the feng shui bureau arranged by the feng shui master, although it was not very detailed, but it was enough for them to understand the whole picture of the feng shui bureau.

It turns out that hundreds of years ago, the situation in the village was much better than it is now. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there are indeed lakes. The moon held by auspicious clouds is a lake like the moon. According to the arrangement of the feng shui master, the village was built around the lake, and the lake was incorporated into the confines of the village, and then formed a hollow shape, which is the so-called trend of holding the moon.

For hundreds of years, the people of the village have developed step by step according to the plan of the feng shui master, and their children and grandchildren have multiplied. During this period, there were really a lot of talents, and I dare not say that there were high-ranking officials or anything, but there were not a few prefects and prefects.

But the flowers are not red for a hundred days, the people are not good for a thousand days, and the feng shui turns around, and by the end of the Qing Dynasty, the feng shui shape shì in the village has already collapsed. The once clear lakes have dried up, and the babbling streams have dried up. Especially when the Qing Emperor abdicated and entered the Republic of China period, the people of the village not only did not get much benefit, but on the contrary, they were completely in trouble due to the struggle between the warlords.

At this moment, a young man surnamed Xiao traveled to the village and asked the old man in the village for a bowl of tea......

"It's him, I'll just say, it's definitely him." Seeing this paragraph, Fan Li's whole person became excited, his eyes lit up, his face was red, and he was very excited.

"Don't get excited." Fang Yuan chuckled, "We know it's him, but we're even more curious about how he changed the village's feng shui defeat and turned it around." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Old Man Pei thought so: "Brother, if you don't want to watch it, just take the trouble to let it go, and we'll continue to watch." ”

"Who said they didn't want to see it." Fan Li calmed down, and continued to flip through the notes with his notes in his hands.

In the notes of the villager's grandfather, there is very little description of the young man, and in the writing, there seems to be a little inexplicable and strange taste, giving people a feeling of jealousy, hatred, shame and anger, and having to obey.

Fan Li read a few paragraphs, then smiled, and said to the villagers next to him: "Your grandfather must have been slapped in the face back then." ”

"What?" The villagers were stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what Fan Li meant.

However, Fang Yuan smiled clearly, more or less empathetic. When Xiao Shenxian was young, he was naturally easily despised by others and did not trust his strength. It is estimated that the grandfather of the villager just thinks that he has no hair on his mouth and is not working hard, and doubts whether he has the ability to change the feng shui condition that he wants.

Needless to say, the face of the villager's grandfather must have been swollen. It's human nature to cover up wrongs, and the villagers' grandfathers will definitely not expose their shortcomings in their own notes. But the meaning revealed in the text is enough to make people speculate about his state of mind.

Of course, these are not the point, the most important thing is the grandfather of the villager, who should have participated in the whole process of transforming the feng shui shape shì in the village, so there is a more detailed record of this matter.

Although the grandfather of the villagers is not a professional feng shui master, and he is in a state of knowing why some of the arrangements for transforming feng shui, the specific steps are described in detail, which is a top-secret archive. (To be continued......)
