The mechanism left by Zhu Yuanzhang here can really be called painstaking.

Although the four sentences he left on the city wall are difficult for us, he must have clearly stated the specific numbers for the successors, and passed them on from word to mouth, rather than letting the later ones guess all the way like us.

These tests for us are actually reminders to the successors of later generations, respectively reminding future emperors not to forget their roots, to remember the tragic situation at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and not to slack off, to grasp the military power, and to pay attention to money and food.

It's a pity that since Zhu Yunwen, these have been lost, if the inheritance is orderly, the emperors of the past dynasties conscientiously abide by it, this Ming Dynasty will definitely not be overthrown by the Qing Dynasty when Chongzhen is in place, it is really the destiny of heaven.

I shook my head, stopped my thoughts, we finally cracked the hidden numbers, passed this first level, and then, I don't know what kind of mystery is hidden in this stone plate.

Unexpectedly, the stone plate under this city tower was not as solid as we thought, but there was something else in the shell.

As Shen Lang had just cracked the three alluded to in the last sentence, he firmly pressed the last correct number, unlike the previous sound of the mechanism, there was silence after he finished pressing, only the stone disk was split in half, and the shell that fell off fell to the ground, revealing another face wrapped in it.

We stepped forward, carefully checked, found that after the shell of the stone plate fell off, there was actually a copper plate inside, the shape was the same as the stone plate, but it was a small circle, one to nine or nine numbers were arranged in order, and next to the number was engraved a painting that was not large in size but vivid, and it seemed that in this painting, there was a clue to the number of the copper plate.

I saw that the left half of the painting is a field, the right half is a high mountain, on the field scattered painting some crops, a few cattle and sheep, and in the middle of the field is entrenched a powerful creature, the head is like a camel, the horns are like a deer, the eyes are like a rabbit, the ears are like a cow, the neck is like a snake, the belly is like a mirage, the scales are like a carp, the claws are like an eagle, and the palm is like a tiger.

You don't need to look closely, as a son and daughter of China, you can see at a glance that there is a living dragon entrenched in this field.

Looking at the high mountain on the right, there is a picture of a man on the top of the high mountain, pointing to the sky and the earth, looking extremely majestic. This man is unusually tall in the painting, and in proportion, he is more than half the size of this mountain.

Xue Nan saw the content of the painting, lowered his head, thought for a long time, and hesitated.

"In the scriptures, there is such a record about the incarnation of the world-honored one, saying that Shakyamuni began to walk as soon as he was born, walking seven steps in each of the four directions of south, east, west, and north, pointing to the sky and the earth with one finger, saying that I am the only one in heaven and the world, is the person in this painting Shakyamuni?"

Ling Xuan was more meticulous than Xue Nan, he shook his head, his tone full of affirmation.

"It shouldn't be, the portrait of this key position will not have a trace of flaws, the Buddha paintings have a fixed shape, but the person in the painting stands on a high mountain, there is no lotus flower under his body, and there is no flesh bun on his head, no matter how he looks at it, it doesn't look like the shape of a person in Buddhism."

Qi Zhi's focus is not the same as ours, she points to the mountains in the painting, and her tone is full of puzzlement.

"Brother Chuan, Brother Ling Xuan, look, why is this person so big, he is almost as big as a mountain."

I hadn't noticed this detail at first, but when I heard Qi Zhi's doubts, I realized that this might be a new breakthrough.

The fields, crops, scattered cattle and sheep and mountains in this painting are all realistic, lifelike, and without any exaggeration, and the dragon and the unusually tall people on the mountain are out of step with the rest of the content, as if to suggest something to us.

The dragon in the field, the man in the mountains, the unusually tall man, the great man......

I was pleasantly surprised, although Qi Zhi didn't know the content of the painting, but her casual words really inspired me.

"See the dragon in the field, see Lord Lijian!"

Ling Xuan heard my exclamation, his brows furrowed and then relaxed, looking at his expression, he also understood what I meant by this unfinished sentence.

I rubbed Qi Zhi's head and looked at her lovingly, but I had brought her with me, otherwise I don't know how long we would have wasted here this time.

"Qi Zhi is awesome, if you haven't noticed the abnormality carved by the people on the mountain, I really can't imagine that this painting actually depicts a hexagram for us through the images in the painting!"

Although Qi Zhi didn't know why her casual words reminded me of the mystery hidden in this copper plate, it was already very happy to be able to help me, and she pulled my sleeve and asked a common question for everyone except Ling Xuan.

"Brother Chuan, what do you mean by seeing Long Zaitian?"

I looked at Ling Xuan and motioned for him to answer for me, Ling Xuan smiled faintly and talked eloquently.

The so-called seeing the dragon in the field is the second hexagram of Qian, and the epigram: seeing the dragon in the field, it is beneficial to see the adult. Translated as the appearance of a dragon in the field, it is conducive to the appearance of a big man.

Those who occupy this hexagram indicate that they have emerged, their talents have been noticed, and if they meet big people, they can get further tempering and harvest. This adult is his own nobleman.

For example, Emperor Shun saw Emperor Yao, Confucius saw Laozi, Zhang Liang saw Huangshi Gong, and Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang, all of which are in line with this statement.

Hearing what Ling Xuan said, everyone compared them with the images in the painting one by one, and found that this was indeed the case. In the quiet field is entrenched a dragon, and on the top of the high mountain on the right stands a tall man.

Although Shen Lang's brain is not very flexible, his diligent and studious appearance is commendable, and he boldly asked me if he didn't understand.

"But even if you know that the content in this picture refers to seeing the dragon in the field, it has nothing to do with the numbers."

I thought about it and didn't tell him directly, but asked him another question.

"Do you know why since ancient times, the emperor is also called the Ninety-Five?"

Looking at his dazed expression, I knew that he had not studied the comparison, and before he could speak, I explained the reason for him.

"Hexagram 95, the flying dragon is in the sky, the good is in the sky, the flying dragon is in the sky, the rule is also, the flying dragon is in the sky, it is the virtue of heaven."

The word "Ninety-Five" comes from the Book of Changes, and the dry person is the sky, so it has also become a symbol on behalf of the emperor. The Qiangua is composed of six yang lines, which are the prime of the pole and the pole. The fifth line from the bottom up is called the ninth five, nine represents the yang line, and five is the fifth line. The Ninth Five-Year Plan is the best hexagram in the Qian, and the Qiangua is the first hexagram of the sixty-four hexagrams, so the Ninety-Five Hexagram has become the emperor's self-title. ”

Shen Lang listened to me say so much, but he still didn't get to the point, interrupted me with a lack of interest, and opened his mouth directly.

"Brother Chuan, you know that my brain is not good, so you just say it directly, what is the relationship between this."

I smiled helplessly, and stopped beating around the bush.

"Just like the ninety-five represents the flying dragon in the sky, seeing the dragon in the field because it is the second hexagram of the Qian, so the descendants call it ninety-two, seeing the dragon in the field, and seeing the adult."

"The content engraved on this copper plate is a hint of ninety-two!"
