Chapter 129: The Most Daring Conjecture
After finishing this heavy topic with Cassius, the two sat in silence for a few minutes. Duchamp suddenly remembered the reason for inviting Cassius here, and before he had time to mention it, he said mysteriously: "The scenery here is excellent, would you like to go with me for a tour?" ”
Cassius was stunned and said, "Why did you suddenly remember to say this, is there any mystery?" ”
Duchamp stood up and said: "I have been here once last year, and I found that the feng shui here is very good, and I can't help but come and come, repeatedly, of course, this place has a special scenery, if you don't appreciate it, wouldn't it be a pity." ”
When Cassius saw that Duchamp had put on his dirty coat and hat again, and was about to go out, he had to follow, and asked, "What is Feng Shui?" ”
"I can't think of people like you who don't know this word, it's a word from the East, wind refers to the wind that flows in the air, and water is the water that flows on the earth. The Eastern world believed that the direction of wind and water due to the topography of the earth could indicate whether the place was habitable. In the East, whether a person is living to build a house to live in, or to be buried after death, they must find a feng shui master to check whether the feng shui is suitable. Of course, the biggest feng shui is the location selection of a city, which often has to go through a lot of verification. ”
As they spoke, they came to an observation deck high up in the town. Duchamp pointed to the mountain behind the town and said: "The composition of the feng shui treasure land not only requires the four elephants to be prepared, but also to pay attention to the dragon, the case sand, the bright hall, the water mouth, the vertical direction, etc. To put it simply, there should be endless mountains in the north as a backing mountain, some flat hills in the south as a landscape, and on the left and right, there should be low mountains on one side, and continuous water on the other, the trend of the water flow and the size of the water flow determine the wealth and blessings of the place, and building a house in the middle of these four kinds is the legendary feng shui treasure land. ”
Cassius looked at it and felt that what Duchamp said made some sense, and said: "Then according to this, the feng shui position of this town is still a little behind, and the three-way intersection in front of the town is the middle of feng shui. When he looked up, he saw the sharp corners of the building on the other side, and said in surprise, "There are really people who have already built a house there." ”
Duchamp nodded and said: "In fact, on the mainland, places with good feng shui often let cities and monuments occupy, in addition, the church chooses the location of the church, and generally chooses the place where the city is upwind and watery, such as the location of the Great Church of Crossbell, which is on a hill in the northeast corner of Crossbell City, although it may not be the address chosen according to Feng Shui, but if you look at it from the perspective of Feng Shui, it is a good place, overlooking the whole city, and the sight and scenery are also very beautiful." ”
Cassius admired the scenery of this place for a while, and when he saw that Duchamp no longer spoke, he wondered in his heart and asked, "You brought me here, what else is there to see besides feng shui?" ”
"It's just to see Feng Shui. We were in the room and said that if you speculate on something in the best and boldest way, or in the worst and boldest, you can often come to an amazing conclusion, right? ”
Cassius nodded.
"Have you ever thought that you can use Feng Shui deduction to find their stronghold? From the external characteristics of a known stronghold, the characteristics of other strongholds should be inferred. ”
Cassius said, "Well, you already know the exact address of at least one of the strongholds. ”
Duchamp stretched his mouth at the roof in the distance, lowered his voice, and said, "My spiritual power was swallowed up at the doorway where I can now see a roof. ”
Cassius' eyelids jerked, he never thought he was so close to the target he was looking for. He looked carefully at the corner of the house hidden behind the mountains, and suddenly felt that it was full of shadows.
Duchamp continued to speak in a low voice, as if he was afraid of being heard: "That house is called the Monastery of the Moon, and although it is a famous local relic, I went to look for it in the library of Crossbell, and the only record is unknown. But one thing is certain, it was built in the late period of the alchemy civilization, between 500 and 900 years of the Qiyao calendar. Crossbell was an ordinary town until 900 years ago, and it has only gradually prospered since then. Crossbell, on the mainland, has a resounding nickname called the Magic Capital. At the time of that incident, it hadn't been affected in the slightest, and I have a personal suspicion that maybe they were trying to hide the real secrets of this place. Thinking about the city's old nickname, although it is only speculation on paper, it is enough to think about it. ”
Cassius gasped and asked, "Can we go and see that place now?" ”
"I must have alarmed them when I accidentally broke in last year, and there must have been all sorts of surveillance near that trail now. So, you can only look at it from such a distance. ”
After looking at it from afar, Duchamp and Cassius began to walk down the path, and Duchamp took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Cassius, saying, "These are some things that I was so bored some time ago that I guessed in a daze, and you can barely read them as a fiction." This place, for the time being, leave it undisturbed, and if you can find someone very reliable, you can pay a little attention. But remember, whoever it is, don't take the initiative to explore it, don't walk through the forks, and don't pass through the stone bridge at the entrance of the monastery. The bridge is within its range, and if you walk past it, you will be mentally suppressed, unless it is an expert to deal with it in person, we can't deal with it. ”
Cassius suddenly felt that there was a heavy pressure on him from the land, and he took the paper, put it in his arms, and asked, "What are you going to do, go back?" ”
Duchamp shook his head and said, "If you just hang around casually on the periphery, it's nothing." I'm going to take a trip to Chase and then I'll be back to Lurey. After that, there will be no time left, and the next meeting may be in late July. ”
Cassius agreed: "It would be better to return to Rurey a few days later." Regarding the matter of the Red Moon Research Society, I have already officially issued a commission through the internal channels of the guerrillas yesterday, but it will take a few days until the guerrilla branch of the empire has collected information and sent out personnel, and when I have made arrangements, you might as well go back. ”
Duchamp listened to the Sword Saint's arrangement, thinking that his life was not safe, he always felt heavy in his heart, and he said solemnly: "Two months later, presumably the paradise has already been found, you take care, I hope there is good news." ”
Cassius said, "Take care, and don't be alone if you don't have to." ”
Duchamp suddenly remembered something again, and solemnly admonished: "Regarding our meeting and my existence, please stand a barrier in your heart, and never tell anyone unless it is approved by me, even if it is a relative like your daughter, please keep it a secret." This vow does not have to be spoken, as long as you swear to your heart. ”
When Cassius saw that he said solemnly, he solemnly swore in his heart. The two said goodbye and went their separate ways.
