Chapter 54: The Axis

"Uncle Xia, what is the importance of that enchantment in ancient times, do you know this kind of ancient art?"

In the message that Ancestor Changqing left me, the barrier to the dawn of time was placed in a corner of this city, and I thought about getting some information from Professor Xia, after all, he was an ancient person.

"Enchantment is a kind of secret art, and the one who can use it must be a Feng Shui master who has cultivated to a very high level," Professor Xia said, "As for this kind of secret art that is rare in the world, the ways and methods of inheritance are rarely known.

"However, it is said that the barrier is located where yin and yang merge, and it is separated from another plane, time or region."

"Look, which position here meets such conditions?" I asked.

"Sen, don't think about it. I see a hint of the pool in the middle of this square, so let's go and have a look. Lingxin suggested.

"That's right," Professor Xia nodded, "Sen, let's listen to our hearts, let's go over and have a look first." ”

......

We came to the pool, which was much larger than what I had seen in the distance, and the water inside was clear and sparkling.

The point is that the pool is octagonal, and even though the spring water gushing from the stone beasts on all sides continues to flow into it, its water level remains at a certain level. Seeing such a strange thing, I first thought that there seemed to be a leak hole under this pool, and the water in the pool was kept at a certain level, which was also related to it.

"It's just a feng shui pool, nothing special." Professor Xia asserted on the side.

"Well," I echoed him, "indeed, there's nothing special here. We may have overlooked certain details. ”

"What details?" Ling Xin wondered.

"You two look," I said, stretching my arm forward with the dot of the pool, "you see, what does it mean that the whole city is cut in half with this pool as the axis, and there are obviously fewer buildings on the left than on the right?" ”

"What does it mean?" Ling Xin said without thinking, "Then it must be that this pool is not the axis!" ”

"No, Lingxin," Professor Xia corrected, "I think Sen's words make sense, this pool is the axis of the whole city, I can be sure of that. It's just that I don't understand that the buildings on the left and right sides are extremely uneven, which is completely inconsistent with the concept of our architecture at that time. ”

"Listen to the heart, don't you know that if a building was built like this in ancient times, it would greatly affect Feng Shui. If the feng shui is not good, it is a disaster, for the people who live in this city. I added.

"Then you two mean, there are other reasons why this city was built into such a model?"

"Yes, there are reasons." I said, "It's just that at the moment, I don't know the mystery. ”

"Sen, listen to the heart," Professor Xia said as he suddenly looked at us in surprise, "everything is relative, and if we want to understand the correct layout of this city, we must not be fooled by its existing model, we must think outside the limiting mode. ”

"You mean," I seemed to comprehend Professor Xia's words, "let's not look with our eyes, but feel with our hearts, and build up the orientation of the whole city in our minds, so as to find the axis; Could it be that the enchantment is somewhere on the central axis! ”

"Hahaha," Professor Xia smiled, "Sen, you're so smart, you can figure it out at a point." ”

While Professor Xia praised me, Ling Xin gave me a disdainful look, and from the slight movement of the corners of her mouth, I guessed that she was saying "Cut!" ”
