Chapter 233: Yin Gathering Knife
Since ancient times, China has believed in the dragon vein of feng shui, and a good place with good feng shui is pleasant, not only benefiting at that time, but also potentially benefiting several generations.
People who die in the earth also follow this formulation, even more cautiously than when they were alive.
From ancient times to the present, from the emperor's relatives and relatives, dignitaries and nobles, down to the common people of Li, the three religions and nine streams all attach importance to this.
Therefore, there are many ancient tombs in good feng shui, which is the principle, it is said that a good feng shui cemetery can affect future generations for hundreds of years.
We have a saying, 'If the ancestral grave is well buried, it will attract wealth and treasure.' ’
Therefore, I often hear the old people in the village say that the reason why a certain descendant was able to be promoted to an official and make a fortune and rise to prominence was because the ancestral grave at the head of the family was buried on the ground and stained with the light of the ancestors.
Of course, this is not necessarily all right, after all, personal career achievements, in general, are basically all based on personal ability.
No matter how good the ancestral tomb is, if you don't have the ability or courage, it's completely in vain.
Mr. Zou said that the matter of Xuangong Mountain has a lot to do with the theory of feng shui dragon veins.
What's going on?
He said that the ins and outs of it have to start with a wealthy family in the county.
To put it simply, people have always been rich since their ancestors, different from ordinary nouveau riche.
For example, if you say a certain family, not only in the business world, but even in all parties, there are talents in the family.
Without this family background, it is natural that it will not be able to support the career of several generations, let alone a wealthy family.
And the wealthy family in the county that Mr. Zou mentioned is basically like this, and its business spreads all over the country and even overseas.
In the local area, it is considered to be second to none. This family's surname is Yang, and the head of the family is more than sixty years old this year, because he is usually kind and charitable, everyone respectfully calls him 'Yang Liuye'.
Yang Liuye's ancestor was a salt merchant in the late Qing Dynasty, and later changed to a tea business, and his career has always been thriving.
Some people may say that people can have today, it is also the result of the hard work of the ancestors for several generations, and there is nothing to be angry about.
I naturally think so in my heart, the ancestors of the Yang family were born in troubled times, and they have worked hard all the way to the present, and it is common sense to become a wealthy family.
But Mr. Zou shook his head and said that they have been working all the way to today, in addition to the talents in the family, one thing is also very important.
Even without the support of this thing, I'm afraid the Yang family won't be able to survive the turmoil in those years.
When Lu Le and I heard this, we hurriedly leaned over and asked Mr. Zou, what is the Yang family relying on?
Mr. Zou took a sip of tea, looked at us with a smile and said, "What they rely on is in that Xuangong Mountain!" ”
As soon as I heard that it was in Xuangong Mountain, my heart immediately chuckled, could it be the fairy bone golden seal we were looking for?
Lu Le hurriedly asked Mr. Zou to come and listen.
I guess he probably thought of the fairy bone golden seal at the first time.
Mr. Zou waved his hand and motioned for us to be calm.
Then, he gestured to his apprentice Zhu Bangyan, who nodded immediately, and it didn't take long for him to take out a hookah from the back hall and hand it to Mr. Zou.
Mr. Zou pursed his lips and slapped twice at the cigarette stick, with a calm expression.
After a long time, he pondered: "The matter has come to this, and I don't want to hide it......"
Mr. Zou said that since his great-grandfather's generation, the family has been looking at feng shui for others.
It can be said that he is almost the only outsider who knows the affairs of the Yang family.
Yang Liuye's ancestor was not a businessman at the beginning, but an executioner.
That was at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the profession of executioner was also at the bottom of society in ancient times.
The income is meager, barely enough to support the family.
But Yang Liu's ancestor is a little different from ordinary executioners, what is the difference?
It is said that the problem lies in the knife, we all know that in ancient times, the execution of beheading, as soon as the time comes, a knife will go down, the neck will be red, and the head will fall to the ground.
The burial of the burial, the collection of the corpse.
The emphasis is on a neat, fast, accurate and ruthless one, and of course, you must pay attention to the movements around you during the period.
In case someone suddenly comes, quickly report immediately: "Keep people under the knife!" ”
At this time, it is also very important to collect the knife, so the doorway inside is not usually seen, and it is just over by slashing it on the prisoner's neck.
This knife on the ancestor of the Yang family is said to be a treasure knife, very sharp, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it has been passed down for several generations.
At that time, a profession was hereditary, and what the father did, the son would generally pass it on.
Therefore, there are countless souls under this knife.
It is said that the prisoners who have been tortured by Yang Liu's ancestors can smile at Jiuquan as long as they are not wronged after death.
The most miraculous thing in it is that after his knife is slashed down on the head, the prisoner will not have the slightest pain, and even the face of the head after death will have a smile on his face.
So at that time, the family members of the beheaded prisoners would ask the official to let the Yang family take charge of the knife and give some gifts or something, so that the prisoners could go on the road safely and steadily.
As for whether the knife was so godly, of course, it is not known now.
However, Mr. Zou's grandfather had touched the knife, and his grandfather was very sure of it.
It is said that the knife does have this ability, and it is a rare 'Yin Gathering Knife'.
In addition, the Yang family is also particular about using knives, and it is often seen on TV that when the executioner is beheading and tortured, he will usually spray a sip of wine on the knife edge.
Of course, this sip of wine is not casually squirted, but the rules in the hands of the executioner.
Every time a prisoner is executed, he will spray a mouthful of wine on the knife edge, and the purpose of this is mainly to ward off evil spirits.
It is said that the soul of the dead under the knife, the soul of the wronged under the knife, who knows if the person who is cut down will be a person who has been wronged?
Therefore, in order to prevent the unjust soul from coming back to ask for his life, the executioner, as the main knife, will spray a mouthful of evil wine when cutting off his head.
And the Yang family is naturally no exception, but the wine they spray is much more clever than ordinary executioners.
The wine of the Yang family is a special Huadiao wine, which is generally strong, masculine and rigid, and this Huadiao wine is feminine and soft, and the wine color is orange and bright.
Together with this 'Yin Gathering Knife', it can be said that it cuts off all the mundane things in the world, and the knife is wiped off and rooted.
The souls of the dead who were cut down by this knife could not remember the appearance of the executioner, let alone turn into a wronged soul and come back to ask for their lives.
It is said that once the son of heaven is a courtier, the pattern of the times is changing, and people will also change, and by the end of the Qing Dynasty, the profession of executioner has almost declined to the point that no one cares.
In order to make a living, the Yang family had no choice but to change to business, at that time, the situation was turbulent, the people were not happy, and there was no backstage to go to the sea to do business, and it was more difficult to earn money without worrying about eating and drinking.
Fortunately, the Yang family is quite smart, and there was a general surnamed Wang at that time, this general has been fighting horses all his life, and he usually likes swords the most.
The Yang family did what they liked, so they gave the ancestral treasure knife to this General Wang.
Since then, the business has been smooth sailing, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, with the decline of the Qing court, the general also suffered from the seedlings, the war was unfavorable, and ended up with a full of beheadings.
What's interesting is that after changing hands several times, the knife was bizarrely returned to the hands of the Yang family.
But since the knife came back, the Yang family's business has plummeted, and some people said at that time that it must be the problem of the knife, so they proposed to sell the knife.
Strange to say, as soon as the knife left the Yang family, business inexplicably improved. It doesn't last long, and the reason is that every time this knife is sold, it will always be sent back to the Yang family.
And those buyers' homes are all dead, scattered, and dilapidated.
Evil Door!
The Yang family was anxious at the time, and after some discussion, they all thought that the knife handed down by their ancestors was the fault.
But when this thing is sold, it will be sent back inexplicably, even if it is taken out casually and thrown away, there will be people who ask for food, and the knife will be sent to the door, as if it has become a hot potato.
The Yang family had no choice but to go outside and invite a gentleman back.
After telling Mr. about the secrets, I asked him what was going on.
This gentleman's name is Zou Hai, and he is Mr. Zou's grandfather.
After Zou Hai took the knife in his hand and looked at it carefully, he said to the Yang family that this knife is a rare 'Yin Gathering Knife', and if you recognize the master, you will be evil if you leave the master.
Therefore, none of the buyers had a good time, either the family was ruined or the wife was separated.
But although the 'Yin Gathering Knife' recognizes the Lord, it also hinders the Lord.
Just like the rare luma, although the horse is good, it is also extremely unfavorable to the owner, if it is not a strange person once in a hundred years, it will only suffer from it.
The Yang family also heard about the Lu Ma in the storyteller, this horse is slightly less famous than the red rabbit, and it was also a peerless horse in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
It's just that his masters, except for Liu Bei, all died tragically.
So at this time, when I heard Zou Haiyi, I hurriedly asked him, is there a way to crack it?
After thinking about it for a long time, Zou Hai said to the Yang family that there is a way to crack it, but it is a little difficult.
The Yang family asked him to just say that no matter how difficult it was, they would find a way to meet it.
Zou Hai's face sank, and he asked the Yang family, who is the head of the family?
He said that this matter needs to be borne by the head of the Yang family.
At this time, a gray-haired old man stood up and said that his name was Yang Rui, and he was the head of the family.
Zou Hai glanced at the old man and said, "In order for the Yin Gathering Knife to stop from now on, you first need to find a place with excellent feng shui. ”
"It's best to have a dragon vein in front of this place, and a tiger in the back."
"After that, I will bury it deep together with the head of the Yang family."
"In this way, the Juyin knife will forever follow the owner buried in the soil, because it is far away from the Yang family, not only can it prevent the knife from being born and leave others behind, but also be buried in the treasure land of feng shui and bless the Yang family's career to flourish.
For the sake of future generations, the head of the Yang family made a decision and gladly accepted Zou Hai's suggestion.
Later, after many searches, the place was finally settled on Xuangong Mountain.
