Volume 2 Rivers, Lakes and Seas Chapter 28 This trip must go to Xishan Island (plus more)

About the dragon vein, I have to give a detailed explanation here.

"Shaking the Dragon Sutra" cloud: The dragon line has its own truth, and the star is the body of the dragon...... The word dragon god seeks the mountains, and the god is the spirit, and the dragon is the quality.

The dragon vein refers to the direction of the mountains and rivers, and the veins formed by the continuous ups and downs are ethereal in themselves, but they are the most important and far-reaching part of feng shui.

Regarding the formation of the dragon vein, there has always been a saying that the chaos of heaven and earth first opened, and the dragon and phoenix beasts roamed in the sky, and then the dragon and phoenix were born, and all spirits began to rise. After the dragon and phoenix catastrophe, countless dragons fell, their muscles, bones, skin and flesh fused with the earth, and the heavenly spirit and earth gas possessed by the dragon turned into a condensed but not dispersed dragon gas, buried deep underground, with the countless dragons falling in the land of China, these condensed but not dispersed dragon qi gradually connected in series, forming a vein that stretches for thousands of miles, which is the dragon vein.

The dragon veins of the Chinese land have the saying of three veins and nine dragons.

The three veins refer to the three main veins, namely the Pearl River South Dragon (Xunlong Vein), the Yangtze River Dragon (Zhenlong Vein), and the Yellow River North Dragon (Gen Dragon Vein), which is the great vein of the national fortune, and its scope extends to the east and west of China, and it is the place where the capital of the previous dynasties was built.

And because the three veins cover a wide range, and there are more detailed Kowloon as its main branches, the North Dragon has four small dragons: Changbai Mountain, Daxinganling to Taihang Mountain, Yin Mountain to Qilian Mountain, Tianshan Mountain, Zhonglong has two small dragons: Mount Tai to Qinling, Kunlun Mountain, Nanlong has three small dragons: Wuyi Mountain to Nanling, Wushan Mountain to Wumeng Mountain, Hengduan Mountain to Himalayas. Kowloon also has its branches stretching, forming a vast network of mountain ranges, although the changes in Kowloon are not enough to affect the national fortune, but can also cause natural disasters in the region, disasters for thousands of miles.

……

The seriousness of the matter has completely exceeded our imagination, I don't know what Grandpa Gan and Bai Ling have planned, but I still decided to carry out the purpose of looking for Master first, so I told the two elders the news that Master had come here.

Sure enough, the two of them unanimously thought that the master was likely to have discovered the conspiracy and was trying to investigate and stop it.

And the senior brother and the master are together, so the godfather's hexagram about the senior brother can also indirectly reflect the master's situation. At least two people can be determined not to be in danger of life.

So after we cleaned up briefly, we left the miserable situation in a courtyard and went to find the old man Huang that Wang Li said.

Huang Laohan's home is facing Taihu Lake, because it has been in disrepair for a long time, the house is very dilapidated, compared with the mansion compound of Xie Yuanyuan's family, it is simply heaven and earth, from the outside you can see the dim candlelight inside, and even the electric lights can't be installed, which shows that Huang Laohan is a poor family.

However, what makes people concerned is that there is a gossip bronze mirror hanging on the door beam of his house, which is obviously used to ward off evil spirits, making us realize that this old man Huang may be a knowledgeable person.

Grandpa stood at the door for a few seconds, sighed, and said to himself: "Could it be that this old man Huang is from Duyin?" ”

When I mentioned the people of Duyin, I instantly remembered Lao Qian's face that had been through vicissitudes.

We knocked on the door, and soon there was an echo from inside, and a hoarse voice asked, "Who!" ”

We looked at each other and didn't respond.

It didn't take long for the door creaked open, and out came a hunchbacked man, he was bald, but his beard was gray, and it was stained with peanut crumbs, and the teeth in his mouth were sparse and leaking on all sides, and one eye was suffering from cataracts, which was cloudy, and there was no trace of expression.

He looked at us for a moment, his eyes back and forth, silent for a few seconds, and arched his hand towards us

, in a thick Wu dialect, asked, "What's the matter with the Nongs?" ”

Grandpa Godfather also replied: "We want to ask, is there a fierce man with a beard who is looking for you to take a boat this afternoon?" Where did you go? ”

Huang Laohan frowned, looked left and right, waved his hand, and said, "Nong, come in and talk." ”

With that, he turned and went into the house, and we rushed in.

Then the door behind it slammed shut.

There was only a dim kerosene lamp flickering on the table of the Eight Immortals, a bag of moldy peanuts scattered on the table, a dirty wooden bed against the wall to the east with tattered clothes, and a stove on the west with two bowls of yellowed vegetables on it, and the firewood in the corner was also damp.

However, it is worth noting that on each window frame, there are yellow symbols painted with cinnabar.

Bai Ling looked around with disgusted eyes, and said in a low voice: "Look at the furnishings, it is indeed a person who crosses the Yin, and he is not poor or young." ”

Huang Laohan picked the wick of the kerosene lamp with a wooden skewer to make the fire shine brighter, and then looked up and said, "Where did you come from?" ”

After revealing his identity, in the face of the two famous families, Huang Laohan did not change his face, sat down, grabbed a handful of peanuts and said while peeling them: "Nong, if you want to ask people, one question is ten yuan (money)." ”

Bai Ling seemed to be a little disgusted that the stool was too dirty, so he didn't do it, but kept standing, and when he heard Huang Laohan's words, he frowned and said, "Don't you know the life of the people who cross the Yin?" ”

Huang Laohan looked at Bai Ling through the firelight and said: "Don't worry about this Nong, I think the two of you have a Maoshan Mountain and a Putuo Mountain, and there is no shortage of Dian." ”

Grandpa Gan glanced at Bai Ling, who was full of displeasure, nodded, took out twenty yuan and handed it to Huang Laohan, he is not a person who likes to shake his face and show his personality, and said, "It's still the problem just now." ”

Huang Laohan took the money, put it in his pocket and said, "There is indeed a person who took a boat and went to Xishan Island." ”

"Can you take us there, then?" Grandpa asked next.

Huang Laohan didn't speak, just looked up at his godfather.

Seeing this, Bai Ling simply turned his head and ignored this side, it seemed that he had a bad impression of this old man Huang.

Grandpa Gan quickly understood Huang Laohan's intentions, and handed over another ten yuan, as soon as he got the money, he was also happy, and said, "No." ”

Grandpa frowned, and very consciously gave Huang Laohan another ten yuan, and asked, "Why?" ”

Huang Laohan still did not change his face as if his face was paralyzed, and fell into a long silence, which lasted for a long time, and then he suddenly said, "Nong, listen." ”

A few of us pricked up our ears at once, and even Bai Ling, who was pacing back and forth, looking impatient, was momentarily motionless.

One second, two seconds...... Ten seconds!

Suddenly, a long and distant voice wafted in from outside the house.

"I'm in so much pain...... "I'm wronged...... "I'm so miserable......" "Save our ......"

Suddenly, the cold hairs on my body stood on end, and I suddenly felt a chill spread from the soles of my feet.

Those unjust souls are crying!

There was silence all around, not even the sound of each other's breathing, and we all held our breath and listened with our ears to the strange sounds wafting outside the house.

At this time, Huang Laohan suddenly spoke: "This voice has lasted for an unknown number of days, and all you may hear are strangers, but I, I can hear the voices of acquaintances and Duyin people." ”

"You mean, there are people who have died under these unjust souls?" Grandpa asked.

Huang Laohan was still silent for a while, and his godfather took out the money again, but was pushed back by Huang Laohan, and he continued: "Crossing the Yin Soul was originally our own job, and the Yin people have never been afraid of the Yin Soul, because they have seen too many people, but there are abnormal changes in Taihu Lake, and after a few of my friends got out of the boat, they never came back, because of this, I have not been on Taihu Lake for almost a year to spend the Yin." ”

Huang Laohan paused, peeled a few more peanuts and threw them into his mouth, and said: "This matter has been very big, but no one can solve it, the person who asked me to take it to Xishan Island in the afternoon told me that the raging souls on Taihu Lake may be related to the change of the dragon vein where Taihu Lake is located, I want to ask for a moment, do you know what is going on?" ”

This old man Huang is a principled person, he wanted to ask us questions, so he didn't accept the fee given to him by his godfather.

Grandpa Gan said: "We are looking for the reason, and it has also confirmed that the feng shui of Xiaomei Mountain has changed from prosperity to decline, and has become a yin and evil situation, because the Taihu Lake Feng Shui Bureau is too big, and it cannot be seen by the local point alone, but the impact must be there. ”

"Can the Nongs solve this matter?" Huang Laohan raised his cloudy eyes and stared at Grandpa Godon, his only bright eyes flashing with resolute light.

Grandpa Gan nodded and said, "After all, it is a matter of national fortune and the lives of the people, and those who practice should go to the soup and fight the fire." ”

Although Grandpa Godfather did not make a promise, he expressed his attitude very firmly.

Huang Laohan slowly retracted his gaze and emotions, returned to calm again, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "I can take you to Xishan Island." ”

I felt that when Huang Laohan said this, under that calm face, there seemed to be turbulent waves.

With that, Huang Laohan turned around and went to pack his things.

Grandpa stood up, smiled meaningfully, and said to Bai Ling: "This person is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. ”

Bai Ling always kept a straight face, snorted coldly, and said: "The people who cross the Yin are all such cold butts, which is really unpleasant." ”

As soon as the words fell, Bai Ling's nose moved, grabbed his godfather, and said, "Yuliu Zhenren, is there a bloody smell in the air?" ”

Grandpa God's brows furrowed, sniffed hard, and said, "Indeed, it seems to have come in from outside the house." ”

After that, Grandpa Godfather immediately opened the door and rushed out, and the moment I went out, even I could smell a faint smell of blood in the air.

Bai Ling stood at the door for a few seconds, and suddenly said, "Come with me!" ”

With that, he pulled out his legs and ran directly to a dense forest on the west side of Xie Jiabang Village.

His feet were so fast that we were scrambling to keep up with him.

We burrowed into the woods and climbed over a small hill, and the blood in the air grew stronger.

After walking a few steps, he heard the sound of swords and soldiers in the distance.

We followed Bai Lingfu and looked forward through the gap in the trees, only to see a few torches burning there, and under the reflection of the firelight, dozens of black-clothed people loomed, they formed an encirclement, surrounding several people in the middle.

I took a closer look and found that the few people in the middle were wearing long robes with black edges on a yellow background, and they looked very familiar.

Suddenly I remembered that this was the costume of the Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain!
