The first stop for Ni Yuan and his men was Kunming, the provincial capital of Yunnan, because they learned that there was one of the Hao family's most important consortia in Kunming, the Amnesty Group.

Kunming can be said to be a good place and enjoys the reputation of "Spring City". The provincial capital of Yunnan Province, the political, economic, cultural, scientific and technological and transportation center of Yunnan Province, an important central city and a tourism, commercial and trade city in the western region, and an important hub city for China's opening up to Southeast Asia, South Asia and ASEAN.

Kunming City is a mountainous landform. The terrain is generally high in the north and low in the south, with many karst caves and lava landforms, and there are stone forest dams in the lava basin. It belongs to the northern subtropical low-latitude plateau mountain monsoon climate, and the climate is pleasant.

Kunming City is beautiful and charming, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, south of Dianchi Lake, lakes and mountains, natural interest. Dianchi Lake is the largest plateau lake in Yunnan Province and the sixth largest freshwater lake in the country. Because it is located in the low-latitude plateau and forms the climate of "four seasons like spring", especially the plateau lake Dianchi Lake is adjusting the temperature and humidity, so that the air here is fresh, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the sun is shining, and the flowers are always blooming.

From the "Southern Silk Road" more than 2,000 years ago to the open Kunming, Kunming has always been a land hub for economic and trade exchanges and political ties between the East Asian continent and the Indochina Peninsula and the countries of the South Asian subcontinent.

As a geographer, Ni Yuan has a better understanding of Kunming's feng shui. Kunming is a good place, but its feng shui pattern has been damaged.

In fact, Kunming was built in the early stage of the feng shui pattern for turtles and snakes. But it was not a natural feng shui pattern, but a feng shui bureau laid out by Wang Zhanhai, a feng shui master in the Ming Dynasty.

During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Mu Ying built Kunming City, and Mr. Wang Zhanhai designed Kunming City into a "spirit turtle" shape according to the saying that "turtles and snakes intersect and produce the breath of the emperor". In the conception of this feng shui master, the south gate is the turtle cast, the north gate is the turtle tail, and the four legs of the turtle are the big east gate, the small east gate, the big west gate, and the small west gate. The tail of this turtle is the mountain of long worms in the north.

After Mr. Wang arrived in Kunming, he first found out the dragon of Kunming City, that is, the direction of the mountain range on which Kunming City depends, and the dragon of Kunming City is Changworm Mountain, that is, Snake Mountain, which is also the main mountain of Kunming, which originates from the northwest of Huize County five or six hundred miles away, and the dragon can be said to be far away, which is the best dragon vein on the theory of feng shui.

Snake Mountain dragon gas walking, wandering twists and turns, telescopic ups and downs, meandering from the northeast side, line to the dragon gas in Kunming Yiwang, to Tiefeng Nunnery will stop and rise, more subtle and vigorous, so nine ups and downs, to the west around the south, to Yuantong Mountain to open the jade screen (that is, the current Quxia screen), Xu Tu Wuhua Xiuqi (Wuhua Mountain). Wuhua is divided into five branches and ends in the Confucian Temple. After Wang Zhanhai found out the dragon, he thought that this was the Gen Dragon Xiang Qian, and then turned around and left, this is the extremely rare "Ziwei Dragon" in the leyline! Then the design and construction of Kunming City is in the shape of a turtle, which is to take the city at the foot of the Snake Mountain, connect with the gas veins of the Snake Mountain, form the state of the intersection of the turtle and the snake, and the Kunming City should be a great blessed land.

Mr. Wang also set a compass needle on a melon-shaped plateau on the right side of Wuhua Mountain, saying that the land here is the most vigorous, so he later built the governor's office to take charge of Yunnan political affairs. When the city is about to be built, Wang Zhanhai specially made three stones, engraved on the stone, and said that "Yunnan won the south of the Yangtze River before and after five hundred years", "Yunnan took the lead in everything". Where the stone was buried is still unknown.

The turtle is a spirit turtle, and the tail falls off and moves, so the inner city gate of the north gate faces north, and the gate of the silhouette does not face north but faces east, which means that the spirit turtle falls off its tail. The big west gate and the small west gate are to the east, the small east gate is to the west, and the outside is to the south, which is the meaning of the four-legged start of the turtle. Only the inner and outer doors of the Great East Gate are oriented in the same direction, which is because the East belongs to the wood, and the wood should be stretched and not bent.

Due to Mr. Wang's planning, Wuhua Mountain has become the main vein of Kunming, Zhengyi Road is the central axis running through the north and south, Wuhua Mountain is the central point, and now Shengli Hall (Yunnan-Guizhou Governor's Palace), the Governor's Yamen, the Buzheng Division, Fantai, Zhentai, Liangdao and other yamen all sit in the north and face south, lined up. The Land Temple, the City God Temple, the Yuantong Temple, the Wuwang Temple and other temples are all according to this feng shui direction, and the vein layout of various functional prosperous places, the pattern of Kunming city is thus formed.

This is the first theory of Kunming feng shui "turtle and snake intersection", turtle and snake interplay is the bureau laid out by the local master Wang Zhanhai, but in the early years of the Qing Dynasty, the snake tail long worm mountain (snake mountain) was broken, naturally the snake tail was broken, and the turtle could not intersect, then, the feng shui fortune of the turtle and snake intercourse should be, naturally did not reflect.

During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, Wu Sangui rebelled in Kunming, and he somewhat thought that Kunming's feng shui was so good that it was a place of dragon prosperity. I never thought that Wei Xiaobao didn't go to Luding Mountain to dig treasures, Kunming's dragon qi has never been able to do the "true dragon" qi of the Qing Dynasty, and the little emperor Kangxi sent troops to defeat Wu Sangui and besieged Kunming City.

The Qing army attacked the city of Kunming, but it could not be captured for half a year. The Qing army generals Cai Yurong and Mu Zhan were in a hurry, and at this time a master came out and said that the reason why Kunming could not be attacked for a long time was because the dragon spirit of the "Ziwei Dragon" was particularly strong, and the Wu family should not die.

The master dialed a little, and the Qing army understood: to cut off the dragon spirit of Kunming! So he sent troops to dig in front of Tiefeng Nunnery. And dig up the sun and moon pond in the mountain gorge and let the water flow away. Sure enough, after making such a fuss, the Qing general Zhao Liangdong (Wei Xiaobao's guy pulled it up again!) From Yunjin Bridge to Kunming, Yunjin Bridge was renamed Desheng Bridge.

A year or two later, another official from the Qing Dynasty came to Kunming. He is the Fan Chengxun who can see his inscription everywhere in Kunming, this man not only writes well, but also is very good at feng shui, it is said that he is more powerful than Wang Zhanhai back then! He looked at the sky above Kunming City and thought that the dragon qi was still gathering, but it was lonely and weak. Fan Chengxun is a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty! He has to rely on this court to eat. If Kunming really has another emperor, then it will be fine! So, he sent troops to dig ditches in Wangmao Mountain and Lotus Leaf Mountain, and until now, these horizontal ditches are still there.

After making such a fuss a few times, Kunming in the early Qing Dynasty was stable. At that time, Mr. Dong Yan secretly said: Kunming is over, and there will be no more big names in the future!

Is that really the case?

In fact, the above facts are not all true. Because Fan Chengxun still had a little leeway when he broke Kunming's feng shui, otherwise Kunming would have already become a decadent and defeated city. But apparently, not now.

In addition, there were Feng Shui gentlemen who gradually changed for it. Therefore, although the great feng shui pattern of Kunming's turtle and snake intertwining has been broken, it still has its feng shui.

The location of Haojia Haoyun Group is a feng shui treasure that has been determined by Mr. Feng Shui. Otherwise, the Hao family would not have developed to the point where it is today, but this time Ni Yuan came. Their good fortune is destined to come to an end
