Disciples?

I was stunned, I have always heard that the disciples who are closed to the door, the disciples who are beginners, but I rarely hear people say that this kind of disciples, mainly because the disciples are too harsh, and once they become disciples, the benefits are also great, not only can they learn the master's craft, but they can also inherit the master's inheritance and reputation.

To put it bluntly, this disciple is similar to a godson, but it is higher than the status of a godson.

However, Ge Hongchen just said that his requirements are very simple, only three questions are examined, which is not proportional to the harsh conditions of the disciples, you must know that Ge Hongchen is the director of the Sixth Office, and his identity and ability, just the five words of the director of the Sixth Office are enough to show everything.

So, I looked at Ge Hongchen suspiciously, "Director Ge, are you sure you only have three questions?" ”

He nodded and said, "Many people want to worship me as a teacher, but none of them can qualify, I hope your friend can give me a surprise." ”

Saying that, he looked at Guo Yaozu, there was a trace of disdain in his eyes, probably because he thought that Guo Yaozu was a foodie, which was also a helpless thing, anyone who saw Guo Yaozu's figure would flash the word foodie in his mind, and if it was ugly, it was a rice bucket, and he wouldn't eat anything.

When he retracted his gaze, he shook his head, "Let's not talk about this first, let's finish this person's skin coffin first." ”

I hummed, stood next to Ge Hongchen, and began to study the intentions of the group of bats in the sky with him, of course, it was said that I was studying with him, but in fact, Ge Hongchen was studying, and I was listening on the side, while Guo Yaozu looked engrossed, as if he was listening to Ge Hongchen's explanation, and as if he was looking at Ge Hongchen.

During our research, the group of bats in the sky has been maintaining that shape, and the soldiers on the side are standing in place with the human skin coffin, their eyes have been staring at the group of bats, maybe it has been carried for a long time, those soldiers and brothers have some sore legs, shouting to put down the human skin coffin to rest.

On a normal day, I would have agreed, but this human coffin was different from ordinary coffins, and the bats in the sky had been flapping their wings to maintain that shape, which made me dare not let go at all, so let them hold on a little longer.

After about ten minutes, Ge Hongchen's face suddenly sank, and he said in a low voice: "This person's skin coffin must not be easy to carry!" ”

I smiled bitterly, and I didn't need to say that I knew that this person's coffin was not easy to carry, and I didn't speak, so I stared at him, wanting to hear what he calculated.

When Ge Hongchen saw me looking at him, he said, "Xiao Jiu, the road of this person's skin coffin is a bit far, I'm afraid it will take you to do more rituals later." ”

Long way?

I'm a little confused, this old tomb is only thirty-six meters away from the new tomb, where is it? He said, "Chief Ge, are you always mistaken, this thirty-six meters is not far away!" ”

He stopped and said in a deep voice: "Not only thirty-six meters, I'm afraid there are three thousand six hundred meters, or even farther." ”

I was even more confused, so I asked him why.

He said: "I just calculated, I'm afraid this human coffin can't be carried like this, and it needs to cooperate with a formation, otherwise, I'm worried that something big will happen." ”

As soon as I heard this, my complexion changed, he said to my heart, when carrying the coffin, I have been thinking, if the human skin coffin is moved to a new tomb in this way, is it too simple, first, this human skin coffin is heavy, directly moved over, will lead to the dispersion of evil qi, affecting feng shui, and second, the position we are in, a piece of emptiness, a radius of a few miles of inhabited, resulting in the lack of popularity of this land, plus it is now summer, the whole place is dry, some of the ground even exposed cracks.

And this kind of crack, in the eyes of our eight immortals, belongs to the leakage of earthly qi, to put it bluntly, it is extremely heavy yin, especially at night, this place gives people a gloomy feeling.

Therefore, Ge Hongchen needed to cooperate with a formation, and I even agreed, so I asked him: "What formation?" ”

He glanced up at me and softly spat out three words, "Xuanxiang Array"

Xuanxiang Array?

I was stunned, this formation seems to be from the Three Kingdoms period Zhuge Liang's eight formations, the main combat object of the Shu army at that time was Cao Wei's infantry cavalry combined troops, the combat area was mainly mountainous, and the Shu State at that time lacked horses, so Zhuge Liang began to rehearse the eight formations.

And the formation of these eight formations already existed before Zhuge Liang, there are Sun Tzu's eight formations, Sun Bin also has the "Eight Formations" chapter in "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and what Zhuge Liang did was to innovate a new formation on the basis of the ancient eight formations, draw a formation map, and finally form an eight-array map to train the Shu army.

The Xuanxiang array belongs to the sixth formation of the eight formations, which is a kind of false formation that confuses the enemy, the distance between the queues is very large, simulating the sound of the marching of military vehicles, like the large number of troops, so as to deceive the enemy, and the middle formation of the Xuanxiang array contains eight directions, with the code name of heaven, earth, wind, cloud, dragon, tiger, bird, and snake.

Probably in the Song Dynasty, this kind of Xuanxiang array was improved by a certain Taoist priest and used in the dojo, the purpose of which was to pretend to be the bluff of the Xuanxiang array, so that its dojo became lofty.

However, this point was favored by our coffin bearer, this formation is just used to carry the coffin, it seems that the scene is lively, and it seems that the main family is rich, filial piety to the ancestors, saying that the philistine point is to support the scene, and in current words, this Xuanxiang array belongs to buying a cottage donkey brand pretending to be forced, of course, this is limited to the eyes of our eight immortals.

As soon as I thought of this, my face changed, no, this human skin coffin belongs to the coffin of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and it has been buried for hundreds of years, where do you still need to use the Xuanxiang array to force it, so I asked Ge Hongchen, "Director Ge, you didn't make a mistake, right?" ”

He shook his head and said, "Xiao Jiu, look at this six, it belongs to the first number of the nine-square grid, it represents Tianfu Star in the stars, and Tianfu Star represents the nobility, you look at the second digit..."

That Ge Hongchen said a lot of words, all in all, there is only one meaning, that is, this time the coffin must be lively, to let the deceased have face, in the end, he pointed to the group of bats in the sky, and continued: "Look at the bats in the sky again, have you thought about it, why do bats come out to block the way, instead of other animals, the reason is that this bat represents the word Xiang in Xingchen, and then think of the burial of this human coffin, the Taoist priest belongs to the metaphysical person, it is not difficult to come to the conclusion, a result, that is..."

As he spoke, he paused, stared at me and said word by word, "Xuanxiang Array." ”

Hearing this, I just felt a little confused, what is it, the bones lying in this person's skin coffin have been lying for hundreds of years, and they still need to support the scene, this is so fucked up, so I said: "Director Ge, if you calculate it again, I always feel a little incredible." ”

He shook his head and said: "What's incredible, people, whether it is the ancients or modern people, who doesn't want to have face, to put it bluntly, people live with face in this life, my ancestors may have considered this at the beginning, so they will use such means to warn future generations." ”

I groaned, and was about to speak, when suddenly, the bats moved again.
