Chapter 57: The Ancestral Dragon of China (Three Watches)

Thangka, also called tanga or tangka, refers to religious scrolls that are framed in colored satin and hung for worship.

Ji Cheng only saw the tip of the iceberg, and this mural did not know how long it had been soaked, the edges were dilapidated, at first glance, this color, this shape, and thought it was a 'thangka', but in fact it was a stone mural formed by the bulging surface of the swollen stone wall.

Looking at the technique and style, it should be from the Tang and Song dynasties.

Although the pattern is very vague, as Ji Cheng carefully brushes off the volcanic ash on the surface, this exquisite picture is presented in front of Ji Cheng's eyes.

This is an early map of China.

Ji Cheng was a little puzzled, what kind of place is this?

How can there be a map carved into the stone wall?

Thinking about the pool that looks like a warehouse or underground storage room I saw earlier, I guessed that this was most likely a secret room, used to hold important meetings, or store important objects.

Looking closely at the map, there are mountains and rivers on it, and the geographical location is not much different from today's, which was quite rare at the time.

And there are many unknown words next to it, this kind of text, Ji Cheng is no longer unfamiliar with it.

That's right, it's still Xixiawen!

Hidden Dragon Mountain is a sacred mountain for the Muya people to make pilgrimages, and it is not uncommon to have the relics of Western Xia in it, but it is strange that there may be dragon veins in this Hidden Dragon Mountain? Could it be that their ancestors did not know? Or did they know, but gradually lost?

The point is that this mural and this text are mysteriously hidden here, what is the metaphor of it?

Ji Cheng was puzzled, so he looked at the text, and found that there were only more than 100 words, and the pen was strong, and it must have come from the hands of a master.

Yesterday, I forcibly memorized a lot of Xixia texts, and in the past two days, I have been consolidating on the road, but I can recognize a lot, but I really can't remember it, so I took out the notes I wrote in my phone before and compared them word by word.

It took more than ten minutes for Ji Cheng to finally translate this text.

During this period, the volcano at the top of the mountain erupted several times, and the sky was covered with volcanic ash, and a strong smell of sulfur filled the air, which made people cough.

Ji Cheng couldn't manage so much, so he followed the thoughts that were sorted out:

"Wanshan has always been from Kunlun. The ditch is a lonely sect, and the branch is eight poles. Qiankun is separated from the valley and exchanged, and the west leads to the Hanhai Sea; Gen, Zhen and Xun are three, and they enter China and the five mountains are separated. It is the boundary of the Yellow River, and the northeast is ugly. The Yangtze River is limited, and the southeast Xunchen is the ancestor. However, the veins of Yin Jia and B are the foundation of the pillars of the river......"

I. Before I even finished reading it, I realized that this was about Feng Shui, and it was high-end Feng Shui knowledge.

Regarding the knowledge of Feng Shui, there is a detailed record in the "Autobiography of Master Ji".

Roughly translated, it means:

It is pointed out that the dragon veins and mountains in the world all originate from the Kunlun Mountains, and there are eight in total. Judging from the gossip deduced by King Wen of Zhou, the direction of the four trigrams of Qian, Kun, Kan and Li is along the ancient Silk Road, extending to foreign countries, taking the central and southern parts of Eurasia as the main axis, and leading westward to distant Spain.

Seeing this, Ji Cheng suddenly felt a spirit, could it be that this is the legendary dragon vein?

Genghis Khan's battle across Eurasia was called the 'Whip of God', and it was fought along the ancestral court of the world's dragon vein all the way to the west - with the help of the dragon vein.

So it seems true?!

Zanglong Mountain is located in the southwest direction, which branch of the dragon vein is it?

Ji Chengan couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and continued to interpret:

The dragon veins in the direction of the three hexagrams of "Gen, Zhen and Xun ......" entered China and lived in the three mountains and five mountains. The Yellow River Basin and the great northwest region of China belong to the category of Beilong. In the Yangtze River basin and the southeast coastal part, it is Zhonglong and Nanlong. These are the three major dry dragons of China: the northern dry dragon, the central dry dragon and the southern dry dragon.

Seeing this, Ji Cheng suddenly understood.

"Zanglong Mountain belongs to the branch of the Kunlun Mountain branch, and according to geographical conditions, it belongs to the branch dragon of the southern Ganlong. ”

It was only at this time that Ji Cheng finally determined that the volcanic eruption of this Hidden Dragon Mountain had indeed carried the aura to the surface.

The fire dragon that appeared in the sky a few days ago should be the accumulation of extremely strong aura, if Ji Cheng guessed correctly, it should be the form of this branch dragon.

It's just a pity that I didn't see it at the time, and no one took it down!

And in the end, the foundation of the four ancestral waters of Yinjia and Mao B became the bloodline of the dragon, which was the water dragon......

This sounds very complicated, but it is quite simple to explain it in modern geography and feng shui.

The dragon veins of China originate from the Kunlun Mountains and are distributed in the land of Kyushu Huaxia, which are divided into three major dry dragons in the north, central and south by the four ancestral waters of the Yalu River, the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the South China Sea.

Tanggula Mountain to the west is the birthplace of the Yangtze River. The Yellow River originates from the Bayan Kala Mountains in Qinghai, the Yalu River originates from the northeast of the Songliao Plain, and the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, and the Pearl River flow eastward into the Bohai Sea, the East China Sea, and the South China Sea, respectively.

In this way, the Pearl River basin of the Yalu River, the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the South China Sea is divided into four major water systems. The four major water systems are surrounded by three major dragon dragons, which extend from the Qinghai-Tibet Pamir Plateau to the west, southeast and northeast respectively, thus evolving countless small and medium-sized dragon veins that split and merged, and these large and small dragon veins construct an ancestral dragon map.

This is the real name of this mural: "Ancestral Dragon of China".

I have to say, this is definitely a shocking secret.

Ji Cheng can say with certainty that so far, there will not be too many people who know this secret, and even in the "Autobiography" of 'Master Ji', it has not been mentioned so far.

It can be seen from this that this ancestral dragon diagram is deeply hidden.

What to do?

With Ji Cheng's current strength, he can't do anything, let alone detain all the dragons for his own use, even if he can use one-ten-thousandth of a small branch dragon, he can't do anything.

This is truly a great fortune, something that any Qi Refiner can only dream of.

Whoever gets one-ten-thousandth of a certain branch can properly enter the innate ranks.

Alas, sighed.

Thinking that there is endless aura in the dragon vein that can be cultivated, but you can't get it, it's really not a good feeling in my heart.

Ji Cheng was about to ponder whether to go into the mountains again to find some opportunities.

Suddenly, a shaking that was more than ten times greater than the previous movement came, making people unsteady on their feet.

The mural, which was almost corroded, also fell to the ground in an instant, turning into a pile of mud.

Then the entire bottom of the pool seemed to crack, and hot air continued to emerge from the ground.

In an instant, the temperature here rises by more than a dozen degrees.

The huge shaking shook off all the volcanic ash on the surrounding rock walls, revealing countless stone statues, as well as totems worshiped by the Tangut people, such as the kiss......

The stone statue is the collective name of the stone man and stone beast installed in front of the emperor's mausoleum, and it is the epitome of the imperial power and guard, which shows that it is very unusual here.

But there's no time to study that anymore.

Bang~~~

Several magma fire dragons several meters high and hundreds of meters long surged here along the Yongdao, and in the blink of an eye, they were less than a hundred meters away from everyone, and they were extremely fast, swallowing everything along the way.

"Let's go!" Ji Cheng called Li Buyu, turned around and left the bottom of the pool.
