"But..."

"But what, don't ink and say it quickly." I deliberately paused between my words, thinking about whether I should tell me that my family not only had the ancient books of "Zhaoyu Zhi", but even the four missing fragments, when suddenly Tianyou couldn't help but say to me unpleasantly.

"Well, I told them they didn't understand anyway." I thought about it and had a plan in my heart, in fact, when I said that my family had "Zhaoyu Zhi", except for Ying Lao's obvious unusual, everyone else looked like they were not used to it.

Especially the Tianyou people, they also know that my family has a lot of ancient books, so they don't think it's one thing at all, but I'm a little worried, even if I say now that I still have a fragment of "Zhaoyu Zhi", it's not a big deal.

After thinking about it, I straightened up and said: "However, although "Zhaoyu Zhi" is a divine book, it is the same as the Classic of Mountains and Seas, it is a book that cannot be understood from the perspective of a normal person, "Zhaoyu Zhi" is a book written by Gu Yanwu in the last years of the Ming Dynasty.

Gu Yanwu spent more than 20 years in order to write the "Zhaoyu Chronicles", traveled all over the mountains and rivers of ancient China, and then borrowed the county chronicles and customs of various places to compile it.

However, there are many more bizarre things in "Zhaoyu Chronicles" than in "Ming Tongzhi", and some unknown or some princely tombs are not in "Ming Tongzhi", but "Zhaoyu Zhi" has a mention of it.

This "Zhaoyu Chronicles" was once shown to be a banned book during the Qianlong period, because this book involved some things that were too unknown, and some of these things could affect the national fortune and the emperor's luck at that time, so it was banned by Qianlong.

In the Qianlong period, the "Zhaoyu Chronicles" was divided into two volumes, and has been stored in the two Beijing political divisions, and later in the last years of Qianlong, because of a fire in Nanjing, the lower part of the volume was burned half, and this half is missing, Beizhili and Jiangxi, Sichuan, Guangxi and other four parts.

In these four parts, the Guangxi volume just mentions the tomb of Zhao Tuo, because of a fire in Nanjing during the Qianlong period, many ancient books and documents were burned, and the Qing Dynasty has not sorted out the ancient books of literature and history since its establishment.

Therefore, Qianlong ordered to start repairing the literature and history books, and then there were more than 360 high-ranking officials such as Ji Yun, and scholars compiled more than 3,800 people to copy and spend thirteen years to compile a series of books, divided into four parts: classics, history, children, and collections, so the name Siku is also known as Siku Quanshu.

Later, the four libraries were collected in Wenyuan Pavilion of the Forbidden City, Wenyuan Pavilion of Shenyang in Liaoning, Wenyuan Pavilion of Yuanmingyuan, Wenjin Pavilion of Chengde in Hebei Province, etc., but it is a pity that "Zhaoyu Zhi" is a book of God, and the descendants of this book can no longer be completed no matter what.

As for why the book "Zhaoyu Zhi" can be known, it is because in March 2008, "Zhaoyu Zhi" was selected into the first batch of "National Rare Ancient Books List" announced by the State Council.

At this point, "Zhaoyu Zhi" really entered people's field of vision, but now the existing "Zhaoyu Zhi" in China is all manuscripts, only Yunnan Provincial Library, Sichuan Provincial Library and Shanghai Library exist, if you want to see "Zhaoyu Zhi", you can only go to these three libraries.

And this kind of ancient books are generally sealed, and people may not lend them to you, as for the current folk versions, they are all nonsense books that are reproduced for self-entertainment. ”

"Damn, the manuscript can be included, so isn't the original more valuable? And according to what you say, these ancient books are still antiques. When Zimeng heard this, he was immediately as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

"Get out, don't be ashamed, you don't know anything else but money." Feng Long glared at Zimeng angrily when he heard this, and then turned his head to look at me curiously, in fact, he had also read my ancient books before, but he didn't believe in these gods and ghosts before.

So he naturally can't read these books, over the years he only knows that there are a lot of ancient books in my family, but he doesn't know what books there are, now his world view has changed, but he has a trace of interest in these ancient books and hurriedly asked me: "I said Zhou Fan, how did you get these ancient books, has your old man told you?" ”

Feng Long's words may have asked everyone's thoughts, and they were also curious about why I had those lost ancient books, and now they are also looking at me intently.

"What's this?" I saw a group of people looking at me like lambs, so I thought for a while before slowly saying to them, "I really don't know much about other ancient books, but I do know the origin of this "Zhaoyu Chronicles".

Speaking of "Zhaoyu Zhi", there is a person I will mention by the way, this person is the Qing Dynasty feng shui master Zhao Jiufeng also known as: Zhao Yucai, Zhao Jiufeng is a native of the Qianlong period, I won't say much about his life, or I want to understand myself Baidu go.

Zhao Jiufeng has a book that is the pinnacle of Feng Shui and the world, and this book is also known as the textbook of the godfather world in Feng Shui, which is "Five Tips of Geography".

And it's not a copy, it's a manuscript of the original manuscript written by Zhao Jiufeng himself, but this is not the point I want to talk about, and now many people know that when Zhao Jiufeng wrote the "Five Tips of Geography", he wrote it with his four apprentices.

But I didn't know that Zhao Jiufeng had borrowed "Zhaoyu Chronicles" before writing this masterpiece of public opinion, and it happened that Zhao Jiufeng secretly copied it because he liked this "Zhaoyu Chronicles" very much.

At that time, the secretary of the Nanjing Political Department happened to be Zhao Jiufeng's best friend, and Zhao Jiufeng had the opportunity to borrow the "Zhaoyu Chronicles", and Zhao Jiufeng wrote the "Five Tips of Geography" after borrowing the "Zhaoyu Chronicles".

With the advent of the "Five Tips of Geography", Zhao Jiufeng immediately became famous at that time, Zhao Jiufeng also learned from Gu Yanwu after writing the "Five Tips of Geography" and began to travel the world, and then my ancestor inadvertently met Zhao Jiufeng, although my ancestor knew a little feng shui but was not considered everyone, but the art of matching people is a must.

I heard my grandfather say that my ancestor and Zhao Jiufeng had a very happy conversation, and then my ancestor exchanged a strange book of "Xiangmen Shenyin Twelve Palaces" for Zhao Jiufeng's four masterpieces at that time, one of which is "Zhaoyu Zhi", and the remaining three are all strange books of feng shui and public opinion, "Five Tips of Geography" You have seen me and I will not talk about it. ”

After speaking, I looked at the three of them, because they had also seen my book "Five Tips of Geography", and when I was fine, I held it every day, and they were naturally used to seeing it when they came to me.

Now Zimeng knows the preciousness of these ancient books, and even licked his face and asked me to borrow them, "The tattered "Five Tips of Geography" you once showed me is so valuable, hehe, lend it to me again one day." ”

"Get out, don't think I don't know what your idea is, if you dare to touch my family's ancient books, I don't need me to clean you up, and my old man will abolish you." I glared at Zimeng angrily and said: "Back then, my ancestor exchanged a strange book for the four strange books in Zhao Jiufeng's hand, which was already a big advantage, who knew that Zhao Jiufeng later came back from traveling and wrote a copy of "Three Essentials of Yang House", and then gave it to my ancestor unconditionally.

So now the feng shui I have learned is basically derived from these ancient books, and the other three remaining books are also extremely precious ancient books, to be honest, my grandfather once told me that a copy of the "Green Capsule Sutra" is enough to compare with my ancestor's "Xiangmen Shenyin Twelve Palaces".

However, my ancestor Shangleng won the favor of Zhao Jiufeng with a strange book in exchange for five masterpieces, and one is the "Book of Burial", I don't need to say more about how precious this book is, and the last one is an ancient book written by Qin Tianjian in the Ming Dynasty called: "Qin Tian Imperial Dragon Technique".

This ancient book is also an ancient book that violates common sense, it mentions feng shui, celestial phenomena and earth spiritual veins, all of which are not according to the normal routine of thinking, this book has only one use is to find the dragon vein, is a strange book to break the luck of the dragon vein. ”

"I'll go, I didn't expect you to have so many good goods at home, but unfortunately I can't look down on it." Zimeng also knew at this time that it was impossible for him to beat my family's ancient books, so he no longer had the idea of making a fortune with a ghost in his mind, and saw him cross Erlang's legs while smoking and said to me a little casually: "You still say why is Zhao Tuo's tomb here." ”

Zimeng turned the topic back to Zhao Tuo's tomb again, and a group of people began to pay full attention again, I saw this and hurriedly waved my hand at them and said, "Let's go here tonight, and then we can have supper, if you are not hungry, I will faint from hunger." After saying that, I glanced at a group of people who were staring at each other with bright eyes.

"Okay, let's talk about it here first, and I'll get some food later." Lao Jiang also stood up to speak for me at this time, maybe he himself felt hungry, and after saying that, Lao Jiang got up and went to the kitchen.

Five hours have passed unconsciously, and a group of us chatted from sunset until ten o'clock in the evening, when I felt a sore back, and God blessed several people one by one to get up and go to the toilet to go to the toilet, go out to breathe.

However, only Win Lao still sat in his place and did not move, but I found that the old man's eyes never left me, and he looked at me meaningfully while smoking a dry cigarette.

I couldn't stand being watched by the old man Ying, and I was going to go out to breathe, who knew that as soon as I got up, I heard the old man shouting to me: "Boy, you wait, I have something to tell you, you come with me." ”

I looked up and saw that the old man was really a strange old fellow, and after the old man finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the stern of the boat, regardless of whether I agreed or not.

Seeing this, I only shook my head helplessly to follow, because there was no way, no matter how I said that people are also elders, and I felt that this old man seemed to have something important to tell me, and it was not yet time to eat, and I was idle.

It's just that I'm a little repulsed by Old Man Win, but after thinking about it, it's better to see what he has to say first, so I quickened my pace and caught up with Old Man Ying and asked, "Old Man Win, what are you looking for me?" ”

Ying Lao was already standing at the stern of the boat at this time, and when he saw me asking, he smoked a dry cigarette and looked at me for a long time before he slowly said to me: "It's nothing, I just want to ask you for a favor." ”
