Lao Zuguan is on the top of Mengmen Mountain, in fact, it is only one or two miles away, and the mountain is not high, and it forms a gate opposite to a hill on the opposite bank.

Mengmen is the meaning of the first door or the beginning of the door, according to legend, Yu water control is from this.

The old ancestor occupies the entire top of the mountain, and the old immortal Sima and a group of Taoist chiefs settle here, but now the Taoist chief is really gathered, and it is rare to be quiet.

When you look at it, you can see many Taoists drawing gossip pictures on the peach wood, and He Xiugu also put a pen on the list.

"A certain memory is not good, this gossip is always not good" He Xiangu was very embarrassed to see the little ladies coming to watch.

Dugu Xinci picked up the half-drawn gossip map and looked at it, then said with a smile: "Your innate gossip map is easy to draw first, and it is effective in the heaven and earth, the heaven and the earth are positioned, the mountains are ventilated, the thunder and wind are thin, and the water and fire do not shoot each other." As for yin and yang? A certain teaching you have a recipe: dry three times, Kun six breaks; Shake the bowl, cover the bowl; Away from the void, the ridge is full; Replace the upper shortage, Xun lower break. ”

"What do you mean?" The little ladies still don't understand.

"One horizontal is yang, two horizontal is yin, dry three is three yang and three horizontal, Kun Quanyin is six sections, Lei Zhen above the two yin and one yang support is not like a basin? On the contrary, one yang is like an inverted bowl on the top, the fire is separated from the two yangs and one yin, and the middle is empty; The water barrier is yang in the middle and yin in the top, so it is called Zhongman, the top of Zedui is yin, which is called the upper deficiency, and the wind Xun is two yang and one yin, and the bottom is yin, which is called the lower break," Dugu Xinci explained.

He Xiangu added according to the mantra, and soon the painting was completed.

"The Marquis of the Far East is really worthy of being the Sect Sage Viewer, this gossip mantra can allow children to draw gossip well" Sima Lao Immortal came out to greet him, and he really praised him when he saw this.

"That's your self-cherishing broom, unwilling to promote it, the gossip map can be regarded as a luni-solar calendar, and you can also speculate on the changes in solar terms, benefiting the people and the country, you and other Taoist sects are hiding and even their own disciples are not good to teach, and you are too selfish" Dugu Xinci old-fashioned teaching.

"The lesson of the Far Eastern Hou is that a certain class will definitely accept the advice of the Far Eastern Hou and promote it more," Hanguang Dao Chang said with a smile.

"You just say it well, what about the professor of the Chinese Normal University? Now even 300 disciples are gathered together? Dugu Xinci said dissatisfied.

When everyone heard about it, it turned out that this Far East still remembered this matter? Daoist Wang Xuanfu and others hurriedly promised to equip the hall of China Normal University with manpower after subduing the chaos of the Yellow River.

Dugu Xinci gave up and was about to enter the Taoist temple with all the Taoist elders, and He Xiangu asked again, "The Hou of the Far East said that this is the innate gossip map, but there is an acquired gossip map?" ”

"Not only the day after tomorrow, but also the gossip of Zhongtian?" Dugu Xinci also has a good impression of He Xiangu, who is as pure as a lotus.

This time, the martial arts showed interest, and even some Taoists were surprised.

"You're kidding, isn't it?" Zhong Licao said dissatisfied.

"As an elite of the Daomen, you have even heard of the gossip of the day after tomorrow and the gossip of the middle heaven?" Dugu Xinci said disdainfully.

"Those are just evil ways," Zhong Li disagreed.

"Are you the crooked way? You just practiced martial arts and broke your brain, I don't believe you asked Sima Lao Immortal and all the Taoist masters, is there any nonsense? "Dugu Xinci has words.

Everyone looked at the old fairy Sima.

"The acquired gossip and the innate gossip complement each other, this is the secret of Taoism, people who are not of great wisdom cannot understand, so there are very few people in the world who know" Sima Lao Immortal also smiled, but he was excusing the Taoist for not teaching and promoting the gossip map.

"A certain view of the Far Eastern Hou is very good at studying the gossip map, why not let the Far Eastern Hou solve some confusion?" Hou Shao invited Dugu Xinci to explain.

"Don't you tell me if you don't have anything to eat?" Dugu Xinci smiled.

"To tell the truth, although a certain class has studied hexagrams for many years, it has not been like the Far Eastern Hou casually summed up the image of the gossip so clearly, the wisdom of the Far Eastern Hou is far beyond a certain level, and a certain also wants to hear the understanding of the Far Eastern Hou, in order to confirm what they have learned, if a certain level of Taoism is refined, he will be grateful to the Far Eastern Hou" Hanguang Taoist also came to cheer.

"Okay, let's discuss this gossip with all the Taoist elders today," Dugu Xinci said with a smile.

Hanguang Dao Chang hurriedly ordered someone to move the chair, so that Sima Lao Immortal and the Far Eastern Hou sat down, and the others sat on a futon by one person, and more than 100 people were sitting in the courtyard in an orderly manner.

"This formation is a bit big, so-and-so just said it casually, you listen to it casually, if you insist on saying that so-and-so is an evil demon and a so-and-so can't, anyway, so-and-so doesn't have a channel technique, don't you say that so-and-so left the Yellow River to accompany the chaos?" Dugu Xinci took the poured tea brought by He Xiangu, first cleared up the relationship, and mocked Zhong Li's mistake casually, but he just said that the gossip of the day after tomorrow is a crooked way.

Everyone was speechless, and Dugu Xinci continued.

"First of all, let's talk about what a hexagram is, from Gui to Bu. Gui, which refers to the soil Gui, began to measure the shadow of the sun with clay pillars of earth. Bu, the meaning of measurement. Libagui measures the sun's shadow, that is, summarizes and records the observed sun's shadow from the four corners of the square, which forms the image of the eight trigrams.

The most basic unit of gossip is the yao, which is mostly a special symbol that describes the change of the sun and shadow. There are two types of yin, yang and yang, yang means sunshine and yin means moonlight. Each hexagram has three lines, representing the three talents of heaven, earth and man. The celestial part of the three talents, including the movement of the entire celestial body and meteorological changes, these astrological phenomena were called astronomy in ancient times. The earth refers to the method of calculating the annual cycle by observing the sun's shadow, and using the principle of the land to understand the whole process of growth and collection. The Ministry of Human Affairs refers to the combination of astronomy, geography, and human affairs in order to produce and live according to these laws. The order of each hexagram is from the bottom up, the lowest horizontal is called the first line, the middle one is called the second line, and the first horizontal line is called the third line.

Bagua represents eight basic objects: dry is the sky, Kun is the earth, earthquake is thunder, Xun is the wind, Gen is the mountain, Dui is Ze, Kan is water, and Li is fire, which is collectively called the Sutra Hexagram, and the permutations and combinations of two of the eight Sutra Hexagrams constitute the sixty-four hexagrams. ”

"Is there a misinterpretation of what you say?" Dugu Xinci asked Sima Chengzhen the old immortal.

"What you said is right," Old Immortal Sima nodded in agreement.

"Far Eastern Hou's explanation is simple and simple, and I admire it" Hanguang Dao Chang also praised.

"Then let's talk about this innate gossip and acquired gossip," Dugu Xinci continued.

"The innate gossip was created by Fu Xi, and the Tai Chi diagram was still created by Fu Xi." Because the Book of Changes says; "It is easy to have Tai Chi, it is to give birth to two instruments, two instruments to give birth to four elephants, and four elephants to give birth to gossip", in this text, it is not difficult to see that there is the principle of Tai Chi first, and then the innate gossip symbol is produced. Therefore, the Taiji diagram and the gossip are both out of the hands of Fuxi, and the history is called "Fuxi innate gossip map".

The Tai Chi Bagua Diagram was a circle at the beginning, the inside and outside were the same, and it was virtual, but after Fu Xi gave a concept, it became a real boundary. At the beginning, the circle was mixed, regardless of black and white and the line in the middle, artificially expressed this concept in three forms, white is yang, black is yin, and the line is a unity of black and white, and finally belongs to black and white. The long lines that are joined together are yang (representing white), and those that are broken into two are yin (representing black). In the middle of the area, when you draw an east-west horizontal line at the position, which part of black and white is more, this curve belongs to the part with more at that position.

After the two lines of yin and yang are generated, they begin to be combined to get four images, but they are chaotic and cannot analyze everything, and then combine them again to get eight trigrams, each hexagram has three lines, which are manifested in three forms, which just obey the law. This is where Tai Chi Bagua comes from.

The innate gossip talks about confrontation, that is, the eight types of objects represented by the gossip, heaven and earth, wind and thunder, mountains, rivers, water and fire are divided into four groups to explain its yin and yang confrontation relationship.

In "Zhou Yi Hexagram Biography", the confrontation between the two hexagrams is called the positioning of heaven and earth; The confrontation between the two hexagrams is called thunder and wind; Gen is opposite to the two hexagrams, which is called Shanze ventilation; The two hexagrams are opposed, called fire and water, to indicate the confrontation between these different things.

"There are three cycles of innate gossip, you all understand, I won't repeat it, and then talk about the acquired gossip" Dugu Xinci said that his mouth was dry, and then he drank tea, and if he understood it below, he also felt very interesting if he didn't understand.

Acquired gossip evolved from innate gossip. The acquired gossip diagram is different from the innate gossip diagram. The gossip of the day after tomorrow is also known as "King Wen Bagua", painted by King Wen of Zhou, the holy monarch of the Zhou Dynasty, which is the gossip of the acquired events, with Qian as the father, Kun as the mother, Zhen as the eldest man, Xun as the eldest daughter, Kan as the middle man, Li as the middle woman, Gen as the young man, and the girl as the girl.

The day after tomorrow gossip diagram four positive. Yang moves first, yin comes later. In the north and south, the Qiangua is at the top, and the Kun hexagram is at the bottom, intersecting with each other, and then becoming separated from the upper and lower barriers. The dry position becomes a detached hexagram, and the kun position becomes a kan hexagram. It becomes a departure from the south to the north. The things are at the top and the hexagram is at the bottom, intermingling with each other, and then they become the top and the bottom are shocked. The position becomes a hexagram, and the position becomes a hexagram. It becomes an earthquake to the west.

"What is the difference between acquired gossip and innate gossip? Sima Lao Immortal, can't you let someone sing a one-man show? Why don't you explain? "Dugu Xinci wants to be lazy, although he enjoys the reverent gaze of everyone, but this is also to attract hatred for himself? With so many Dao Masters present, they were babbling alone, and their disciples still thought that their master didn't understand?

"Then the Marquis of Far East will rest for a while, and talk about his experience, and confirm one or two with the Marquis of Far East," the old fairy Sima pondered for a while, and then smiled.

"Bagua corresponds to the Heluo double map, and the innate gossip shows the spatial image, the positioning of heaven and earth. The cyclic process of the acquired Bagua reflects the changes of the four seasons and the process of the growth of all things, and also shows the close relationship between the acquired Bagua and the four solar terms. The innate Bagua diagram is manifested as the combination of yin and yang, which is natural and endless, and is the congenital Qi diagram. The acquired gossip diagram is manifested as the five elements are born together, and the way of development is easy to change, which is the acquired Qi diagram. It is consistent with the five elements of the east wood of the river map, the south fire, the west gold, and the north water. ”

Sima Chengzhen's old fairy said that it was also easy to understand.

"The acquired gossip talks about popularity, describing the cycle cycle, such as water popularity, to represent the dependence and mutual root of yin and yang, and the mother and child of the five elements. The day after tomorrow is the law derived from the passage of time and the growth of all things.

It can be seen from the "Zhou Yi Hexagram Biography" that the spring birth, summer length, autumn harvest, and winter storage of all things are strange for 360 days every week, and the gossip is used for 45 days, and its transition point is manifested in the eight sections of the four positive and four even, which constitutes the acquired gossip diagram that runs in a clockwise direction.

Each hexagram has three lines, three and eight, that is, the twenty-four solar terms of the year. ”

Sima Lao Immortal thought about it, but asked Dugu Xinci, "I have only heard of Zhongtian gossip, but I don't know the truth, is Far Eastern Hou willing to solve a certain puzzle?" ”

"I can't talk about solving doubts, and I only know its meaning, but I haven't investigated whether it's true or false," Dugu Xinci said modestly.

Sima Lao Immortal nodded, "This innate gossip and the acquired gossip are similar to the views of the Far Eastern Hou, as for the Zhongtian gossip?" I would also like to ask the Marquis of Far East to come to some common reference. ”

"First of all, I also think that Zhongtian gossip is made up by laymen, there are only congenital and acquired in the world, there is no Zhongtian, for example, the congenital is before the baby leaves the mother's body, and the acquired is after the baby leaves the mother's body, how can Zhongtian say?" Dugu Xinci smiled.

The Taoist chiefs below looked at each other, and you said that there was no Zhongtian, so how can you continue to talk about it?

Dugu Xinci smiled and continued to explain:

The Zhongtian saying of Zhongtian gossip is hidden in the "Emperor Surprise" in "The Legend of Hexagrams", and Zhongtian Taiji determines the position of Zhongtian earthquake

"The emperor is out of the earthquake" is to talk about the day after tomorrow gossip Taiji point and the day after tomorrow earthquake position, implying that "the emperor is hidden from the earthquake", which means that the Zhongtian earthquake is located in Beichen and in the north.

"Emperor" or "Emperor Star" is Beichen Taiyi, that is, the North Star, Ziweixing: "Huainanzi Tianwenxun" cloud: "Purple Palace, Taiyi's residence". Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian of the Eastern Han Dynasty, commented on "Zhou Li" and said: "Haotian God, also known as Taiyi". Zheng Xuan's annotation "Yiwei Dry Chisel Degree" said: "The one who is too one, the name of the god of Beichen." "Historical Records: Tianguanshu" cloud: "Dou is the emperor's car, transported in the central government, and the four townships are temporarily controlled." Divide yin and yang, build four times, average five elements, shift the degree of joints, set all the eras, all tied to the bucket. ”

The order of Zhongtian gossip also exists in "Zhou Yi Saying Hexagram Biography", the performance of "easy to reverse the number": "Thunder to move, wind to disperse, rain to moisten, day to Xuan, Gen to stop, exchange to please, dry to Jun, Kun to hide", is the reverse words: "The one who knows the coming is reversed"), its order: "the number of the past is smooth", in other words, the two are wrong, "Zhou Yi Saying Hexagram Biography", there is also a saying: Lei Jiukun two reverse number of lines, faintly independent and existing, there is a big reason for the void, can be called a god. At the end of the Taiyi calendar, it is easy to micro macro at any time. Kun Hou is Taiyi, Lei Qian is the emperor god, so this crosses the following, the first emperor is shocked. The emperor showed the hidden appearance and silently said the gods, then he deduced that the order of the Zhongtian gossip should be Gendong Xunxi, Zhennan to the north, southeast Kun, northeast Qian, southwest Kan, northwest Li.

Dugu Xinci said his conclusion, and everyone pondered.

"What you said needs to be discussed in detail," the old fairy Sima also thought about it, and sighed for a long time.

"Far Eastern Hou Ru looks at a certain hexagram, but it is Zhongtian gossip?" Wang Xuanfu raised his pen and drew a hexagram while thinking, and then raised a sign and asked.

"It should be so," Dugu Xinci nodded.

"On the wood, fire, earth, gold, and water of the order of Nagan, that is, on the order of the Middle Heavens, is Kun the first, is it because Taiyi is the starting and followed by Kun Mu?" Wang Xuanfu looked at the hexagram and wanted to cut off his beard.

"Liezi said: After the heaven (Qianwu) and the earth (Kunwei) is Shenyou Xuhai. It is in line with the hexagram "Sima Lao Immortal also thought."

"This is contrary to the avenue, doesn't it make sense? Doesn't make sense? Hou Shaowei frowned and pondered.

"If you can't make sense, can you understand it?" Dugu Xinci replied lightly.

"How?" Old Immortal Sima also asked.

"The Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things; All things are negative yin and embrace yang, and they are impulsive and harmonious; Dugu Xinci suddenly recited the Tao Te Ching.

The crowd didn't know why, but they didn't know what was going on.

The great emperor Xi is sacred, and the eight seals are painted in the world. It works on the law of heaven and earth, and the use of the six sons is unpredictable.
