Before telling the story of Shen Yifan and Zheng Dongfu, I want to add Shen Yifan's questions about Yuanzhou before.

When exactly did the boat start appearing in Beidou City? If it is the Qin Dynasty, how many times has the round boat appeared from the Qin Dynasty to the present? What other places have to do with Yuanzhou? Beidou City is one, so what other places are related to the Yuanzhou in the entire land of China? Shen Yifan has been looking for answers to these three questions, but in this coincidence, he found a crucial clue in Zheng Dongfu's place.

Straight to the point.

Shen Yifan and Zheng Dongfu were drinking beer in a small restaurant, Zheng Dongfu said: "If it weren't for the matchmaker in the next village this year to help my stupid son talk about family affairs, I wouldn't dare to take these two things out." ”

It turned out that Zheng Dongfu had been in Bengzhou for a week, but he didn't dare to make a move if he was unfamiliar with the place, but was targeted by a group of thieves in Bengzhou, and was almost snatched away by the thieves.

Shen Yifan said: "Brother Dongfu, if you believe me. Show me those two things, and I'll help you estimate the price first, so that you won't suffer a loss in the future. ”

After a big meal, Zheng Dongfu believed in Shen Yifan, and when he heard Shen Yifan's words, he couldn't ask for it, so he took a sip of wine and said, "I want it." Yes. As he spoke, he looked around, and wanted to take out his things, but Shen Yifan waved his hand and said, "There are many people, let's go to the car and talk about it." ”

Shen Yifan and Zheng Dongfu got on the train, and Shen Yifan specially made up a sleeper ticket for the box for the train conductor, and the two of them were in a box, so Zheng Dongfu took out the things in the bag and showed them to Shen Yifan.

Zheng Dongfu carefully took out two things wrapped tightly in newspaper, one is a short sword half a foot long, this short sword shape is particularly strange, there is no trace of beating and forging on the sword body, and there are four blood grooves on the front and back sides, the hilt and the sword body are one, it can be seen that they are forged together, the short sword does not have any patterns and ornaments, the only inscription is a triangle plus three water ripples, and then there is a circle around the triangle.

When Shen Yifan saw this short sword, his heart rippled, because the inscription was the same as the symbol he saw on the stone tablet in Taohuayuan Village, and he preliminarily concluded that the symbol was the symbol on the magic rune jade.

There is also a round box that is actually not a box but a strange compass, this compass is very exquisitely made, it looks like a bronze round box in your hand, there are no patterns and inscriptions on it, it looks like a round copper block, but the ingenuity is that when Shen Yifan holds it in his hand, he feels that the weight is like a feather, and he can easily rotate it by holding down the center of the disc with three fingers, but he can't see any gaps at all.

Shen Yifan guessed that this disc might have to add a mantra to open it in order to see the true chapter, but now there is no way, and it can only be rotated without change.

Zheng Dongfu was concerned about how much these two objects could be worth, and he didn't know the function of these things, so he asked on the side: "Brother Shen, how much can this thing be worth?" ”

After reading it, Shen Yifan said: "Big brother! If you buy and sell this thing in private, you will go to jail. This is all the Bronze Age, at least before the Zhou Dynasty. The state has regulations that the bronzes of the Zhou Dynasty are all national treasures, and selling national treasures is to lose their heads. ”

Zheng Dongfu was also taken aback when he heard this, and asked, "What should I do then?" I still hope that I will buy this thing and bring it back to my son to get a wife! ”

Shen Yifan thought for a while and said, "But don't worry." We are also fated, so be it! When you arrive in Yanjing, I'll take you to find someone and give him this thing. Naturally, he will not treat you badly, and you will not go to jail and lose your head. ”

Zheng Dongfu nodded again and again when he heard this.

There was nothing to say all the way, and the train entered Yanjing South Station in the afternoon of the next day, and Shen Yifan was picked up by the ghost doctor after getting off the train, the ghost doctor wore a face mask, looking at a handsome and capable young man who was about the same age as Shen Yifan, if it wasn't for the ghost doctor who sent him a photo before, he didn't know that the ghost doctor used this face to the world. Because the title of the ghost doctor is only used when he goes to fight and rob the tomb, he contacts the world with the dean of Yu Mengcheng on weekdays, so we call it Yu Mengcheng here.

Yu Mengcheng saw Shen Yifan with an old man and asked why, Shen Yifan told Yu Mengcheng about the short sword and the disc, Yu Mengcheng was also very interested, saying that if the thing was good, he was willing to pay for it first, and Zheng Dongfu would not lose the price.

When Zheng Dongfu heard Yu Mengcheng say this, it was too late to be happy! Hurriedly nodded in agreement, Yu Mengcheng immediately bid 800,000 yuan to Zheng Dongfu, Zheng Dongfu even smiled crookedly, holding the 800,000 bank card and leaving happily.

When Zheng Dongfu left, Shen Yifan said with a smile: "You will pay 800,000 yuan for two national treasures, but this time you will make a lot of money." ”

Yu Mengcheng smiled and said: "No one dares to ask for this thing in China, and you can't go abroad, so 800,000 is already good." I'm throwing bricks and bricks. ”

"Throwing bricks and stones?" Shen Yifan was a little puzzled when he heard this.

Yu Mengcheng smiled and said: "There was indeed an emperor's tomb in Luofeng Beibei, which was the tomb of a grass-headed emperor in Yubei at that time. However, according to the archaeological team at that time, there should be a national teacher's tomb near the emperor's tomb, and that tomb has not been found, and Zheng Dongfu's two things just prove that there is indeed such a tomb. ”

Shen Yifan listened and said, "The grass-headed son of Yubei? I remember that there was once a grass-headed emperor named King Xichuan in Yubei, but his throne was destroyed by others after sitting on the throne for less than three years, and the tomb of such a rapid replacement is generally not very large. ”

Yu Mengcheng smiled: "Not bad! At that time, Xichuan was a city-state-like country, and one city and one country were not very powerful. In fact, the core figure of the power of the Xichuan Kingdom is the national teacher. Where the prestige of the national teacher is very high, and he has a very strong strength. Therefore, it is rumored that there are a lot of funerary goods in the tomb of Xichuan Guoshi, but they have not been found yet. ”

Shen Yifan smiled when he heard this: "Do you want to go to the Luofeng Monument Store?" ”

Yu Mengcheng nodded, and Shen Yifan smiled knowingly.

Yu Mengcheng said: "But let's go see 'Mr.' first." ”

Shen Yifan seemed a little nervous when he heard this, his only hope so far was sir, this gentleman should know some of his past, he nodded thoughtfully.

Yu Mengcheng said: "Sir, he is very busy. I didn't just meet everyone, I told him to meet at my house tonight. ”

In the evening, Shen Yifan went to Yu Mengcheng's house with Yu Mengcheng's car, this is a low-key and connotative house, it is a three-room courtyard, when he came to his door, he saw several young people in Mao suits standing at the door, Yu Mengcheng saw it and smiled slightly.

Shen Yifan looked at it and knew that Mr. had arrived, looking at Mr. should not be low-level, Shen Yifan walked into the courtyard with Yu Mengcheng and saw that a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and a pair of black-framed glasses was sitting in the courtyard reading a book.

Yu Mengcheng walked over with a smile and said, "You came so early!" ”

The middle-aged man also smiled and said, "Didn't you tell me to come early?" As he spoke, he looked back at Shen Yifan and asked, "Is he Shen Yifan?" ”

Yu Mengcheng nodded and said, "I have already told you the intention of his coming, you see ......"

Shen Yifan walked over to shake hands but was stopped by a young man in a tunic next to him, as soon as the hands of the two touched Shen Yifan, he knew that this young man was very good at kung fu, and he retracted back without any competition and said: "I am Shen Yifan, hello Mr. senior." ”

The gentleman laughed and said, "You are really polite." According to the rules of the Eight Gates, your rank is still higher than mine. ”

Shen Yifan was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, and he knew that Mr. must know his origin, so he hurriedly asked, "You know my past." ”

The gentleman smiled slightly and said, "I only know that you are the apprentice of the Dong family brothers of the Eight Gates of Guigu, that is, one of the 'Seven Sons of Guigu' known in the rivers and lakes." ”

Yu Mengcheng was also very surprised when he heard this, looked at Shen Yifan and said, "You are actually one of the seven sons?" ”

Shen Yifan looked at Mr. and Yu Mengcheng with a confused expression.

The gentleman said: "I only know that you are one of the seven sons of Guigu, and I don't know anything else." ”

This is also a very important clue, Shen Yifan thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if you can help me introduce the chief and deputy heads of the eight gates of Guigu?" ”

Yu Mengcheng and Mr. looked at each other Shen Yifan, and Yu Mengcheng said, "You really don't remember anything?" ”

Shen Yifan shook his head in a fog when he heard this.

The gentleman said: "The eight gates of Guigu have not been in charge for almost three years. The Dong brothers have been missing for almost three years. ”

Yu Mengcheng said: "This matter is only sir; God and I know. No one in the rivers and lakes knows that the Eight Gates of Guigu are no longer at the helm. Three years ago, the Dong brothers suddenly disappeared for no reason, and Mr. used a lot of connections to find no clues. What's more, the whereabouts of the seven sons of Guigu have always been mysterious, and we still know that you are one of the seven sons, but we don't know exactly which one it is. ”

Mr. took a sip of tea and said, "South Leng and North Murong, sir; Divine Calculations and Ghost Doctors; Gold; Wood; Water; Fire; Earth; Actors; Pilgrimage; Iron three artillery. These thirteen are also known as the thirteen Taibao in the tomb robbery world, in fact, there is a strange whirlwind shovel below; the green dragon tiger and the phoenix; Knife; Gun; Sword; Halberd; Axe; Fengyun; Thunder; Eye to Heaven. The next sentence is the seven sons of Guigu. ”

Shen Yifan asked, "Isn't there also thirteen people?" ”

Yu Mengcheng said on the side: "The strange hand whirlwind shovel is a person, and according to the ranking, it should be the boss. Qinglong Tiger is a person, the second in line. Phoenix, we only know that it is a woman, the third in line. Swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes are also the fourth in line. Fengyun ranks fifth. Thunderbolt ranks sixth. Tongtian Eye ranks seventh. These seven people are collectively referred to as the 'Seven Sons of Guigu'. ”

Shen Yifan listened a little strangely and said to himself: "It's all a name." ”

Yu Mengcheng said: "According to the rumors of the rivers and lakes, Fengyun; Raiden and Eye of Heaven are the most powerful, and I guess you're one of the three. The feng shui rush of your dragon point is very much like the eye of the sky. ”

The gentleman nodded and said, "The eye of heaven is mainly to check the earth's veins and observe the stars. So it fits you perfectly. ”

Yu Mengcheng told Mr. again the idea of going to the Luofeng Tablet Store in Yubei, and Mr. nodded and said, "Yes." You let Shen Yifan go with you. ”

Yu Mengcheng said: "I originally had such thoughts. ”

The gentleman said, "Take out the Yaling sword and the water tray and take a look." ”

Yu Mengcheng took out these two things, and the gentleman looked at them again and said with a slight smile: "Sure enough, they are two magical things." ”

Shen Yifan didn't know much about it and asked, "What is the reputation of these two?" ”

Mr. said these two things again, Yu Mengcheng didn't know much about these two things, and Shen Yifan didn't understand these two things at all.

The Baling sword is actually not a sword, but a ruler or the same thing as the Luoyang shovel, the eight so-called blood grooves on the Baling sword are actually not blood grooves but a kind of groove with soil, the Baling sword is actually not half a foot long, it can be extended to more than four meters, each section is half a foot, as long as a few sections are pulled out, it is a few and a half feet.

The water tray is a compass, which needs to be opened with a certain decision, and this water tray has eight links, divided into five elements; Gossip; Yin and yang; Sixteen days and tenkan; terrestrial branches; Thirty-two gullies; Sixty-four water lines. Wu Xing; Gossip; Yin and yang; Heavenly stem; I won't explain much about the earthly branch.

The focus is on sixteen days, thirty-two ravines, and sixty-four water lines, and these three things should start from the Hetuluo book. According to legend, in ancient times when Fuxi, the Yellow River in Mengjin County, northeast of Luoyang, emerged from the Yellow River, carrying the "river map" and offering it to Fuxi. Fu Xi evolved into gossip according to this, and later became the source of "Zhou Yi". According to legend, when Dayu, Luoyang Xiluoning County Luohe River surfaced a turtle, carrying the "Luo Shu", dedicated to Dayu. Dayu succeeded in controlling the water according to this, and then drew the world into Kyushu. According to this, the nine chapters of the law were formulated to govern the society, and it was handed down and included in the "Book of Shang", called "Hong Fan". "Yi Ji Ci Shang" says: "The river produces a picture, Luo produces a book, and the sage is a sage", which refers to these two things.

The ancients in the Hetu Luo book consulted the sixty-four days of the hexagram, this hexagram can be described as amazing, can predict five hundred days of machine, and later the ancients thought that the heavenly machine can not be leaked too much, so it became the thirty-two days of the hexagram, also known as the thirty-two days of the gang hexagram, in fact, it is from the sixty-four days of the hexagram to remove the general, when Yu ruled the water, Luo Shu out, Yu combined with the thirty-two days of the gang hexagram back to push the sixty-four days of the hexagram but has not been pushed incomplete, in order to better control the water from the evolution of sixty-four water lines and thirty-two gullies for water control, A hundred years later, the strange people who were proficient in the art of heavenly principles introduced the sixteen feng shui theories with the help of sixty-four water patterns and thirty-two gullies.

The sixteen feng shui theories include the heavenly principles and heavenly phases that the ancients said, so they are also called the sixteen days, and since then the world has begun to have feng shui and the saying that it is okay. By the end of the Zhou Dynasty, a celestial master had mastered sixteen heavens, thirty-two gullies and sixty-four water lines, and established a sect to become a generation of feng shui schools.

It is rumored that many feng shui schools are based on these three techniques, and in the Ming Dynasty, the feng shui method was even more prosperous, but few people mastered the sixteen days at the same time; There are three techniques: 32 gullies and 64 water lines.

Dingshui pan for the Ming Dynasty Hongwu period of a feng shui sect of the treasure of the earthquake faction, according to legend, the head of this sect is the only one in the world to master the three feng shui techniques, once for the emperor to seize the water are used in this water pan, later the sect went out of a capable person surnamed Zhang to the end of the Ming Dynasty war chaos, the person surnamed Zhang with a group of people to take refuge in Sichuan, then brought this treasure into the middle of the river after the bird has no news.

After introducing these two artifacts, the gentleman said, "Later, this person surnamed Zhang became a famous god there. But as for whether it is a national teacher, it is not very clear. ”

Shen Yifan said: "At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan to slaughter the people of Sichuan, there was a written record of entering Yuchuan and was blocked by waterlogging, landslides, lightning strikes, suspected to be a local spell, hindered in the mountains of the Yubei generation, I suspect that I met the national teacher of the king of Xichuan. ”

Shen Yifan said again: "If the national teacher of the King of Xichuan is surnamed Zhang, then he is a feng shui master, and his tomb must be very secret." ”

The gentleman stood up and said, "For many years, many people who dig for sand and earth have tried to find this so-called tomb of the national teacher, but to no avail. I didn't expect a flood to wash out the coffin of this national teacher. ”

What was Shen Yifan thinking?

He was thinking, "The compass looks good at feng shui." But an artifact like a Luoyang shovel can't be explained. The only explanation is that the so-called surname Zhang is also a tomb robber. ”
