In ancient times, Hainan was a barren land, with many mountains and forests, miasma everywhere, the spring and summer seasons changed all year round, and the animals and birds lived here more, and the population was sparse. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThere are many villages, but it is difficult to make a scale. The eastern line of the land, Haikou is the largest, but there is quite a development area, mainly Haidian, most of the people who do business here are engaged in import and export trade. On the western front, only Yazhou can barely be regarded as the size of a small town, and most of the nearby villagers are engaged in planting livestock and fishing, and the economy of the whole island is very backward compared with the inland, and there are many malaria, commonly known as "dengue fever".

In the early years, Hainan belonged to Guangdong Province, but because of the separation of the strait, it was forgotten by the outside world. In all dynasties, if officials were sent to serve here, most of them stayed here, and it was difficult to be promoted for life. And many people who committed serious crimes but did not commit them to death, such as some court officials or literati, would not have been able to return to their hometowns if they were exiled here. Su Shi was exiled here, and it is said that after Su Shi was exiled here, Hainan had a private school in the real sense, and only then did it come out of the champion. Like the famous Hai Rui, he is an official who went out of Hainan.

Yang Yan of the Tang Dynasty has a poem that says: "If you go for 10,000 miles, you won't return a thousand." Where is the end of the world, the ghost gate is closed. This poem can completely explain that in ancient times, this place in Hainan was as terrible as the "Ghost Gate". And people often use it to describe the end of the world, the end of the sea, the "end of the world" is here. Nowadays, Hainan has become a tourist island, and everyone who comes here is attracted to this place.

On this land, the older generation often said, don't touch the "four techniques and eight prohibitions", the eight prohibitions are: demons, demons, ghosts, monsters, gods, mountains, water, and fire. The first five are easy to understand, demons and monsters, this is a forbidden thing in itself, and ordinary people don't have the courage to provoke it, and the forbidden mountain is not to enter the mountains and forests casually; Prohibition of water means not to play in the water casually; Banning fire means not playing with fire at will. If these eight prohibitions belong to the old man fooling the child, then the four techniques are the real existence and jealousy of people in this land.

The four techniques refer to the four families that exist in this land. These four families are martial arts, Taoism, medicine, and life.

Martial arts, martial arts. In those days, people made a living by going up the mountain to chop firewood and go into the water to fish, and they all had the strength to do it, and if there were more men in any village, when the father went out, he raised his head and stood tall, and he spoke with confidence, and ordinary people did not dare to provoke. But if you really want to say that there is a move exercise, you have to count the Yang family.

Among the four major families, the martial arts family is the most powerful and has a large population, and it is said that this family is related to Yang Xiuqing of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Yang Xiuqing followed Hong Xiuquan to revolt, the scenery was unlimited, and was named "nine thousand years old" by Hong Xiuquan, and later the Tianjing Incident was killed, and almost suffered the disaster of extermination, and only a few people fled to Hainan. The old man Yang of the Yang family is a ruthless master, and with his own ability, he has gained a firm foothold here, so that the family incense can continue. Now Mr. Yang is in his eighties, and his body is still old and strong, and he can do more than 3,000 push-ups with three fingers in one hand. Nowadays, the family is thriving, and the old man Yang is full of children and grandchildren, all of whom advocate martial arts, and they are quite prestigious in the local area, and ordinary people dare not provoke them. Fortunately, the people of the Yang family are also reasonable, although they have the ability, they have never bullied the people in the village.

Dao, Taoism. At that time, the people of feudal superstition thought tradition, coupled with the distance between the villages, there were many goblins and ghosts in the mountains and forests, and many supernatural events emerged one after another, so every village inevitably had some capable people who claimed to be able to subdue demons and eliminate demons. But the Taoist family is recognized by everyone as the most powerful here, and even those goddesses who claim to be the reincarnation of Wong Tai Sin dare not provoke them. The Taoist ancestors are said to have followed Zhang Zhenren to the north and south, and then Zhang Zhenren crossed the ocean to Hainan, found a hole in the blessed land to cultivate, and the Taoist ancestors settled here, and then did not know what the reason, nor did they follow Zhang Zhenren to continue to travel the four seas. Although there are only three brothers left in the Taoist family, in the eyes of ordinary people, they are extremely secretive. The three of them have an irregular schedule, often going out day and night, and they don't know if they have subdued demons and eliminated demons. The people in the village have great respect for the three brothers, and they often greet them politely when they meet on weekdays. In the village where they are located, because the Taoist family is here, many strange things don't happen much. Whenever there are strange things, people can't solve them, as long as they find people from the Taoist family, there is no injustice. Villages in the vicinity of Shili and Eight Townships sometimes went to great lengths to find the three brothers. People spread the word of mouth, and all the villages within a radius of 100 miles knew about them. But listening to the older generation, the population of the Taoist family has never been prosperous, perhaps because the Taoist learners are contaminated with cause and effect, although they have a body of ability, but they are disgusted by ghosts and gods, it is difficult to have a good death, and it is difficult to spread the branches.

Medicine, for the medical skills. Since ancient times, professions such as teachers and doctors have been respected. The medical family is naturally famous in the village where they live. Hanging pots to help the world, saving lives and helping the wounded, such things that benefit the people are all things that everyone can really feel. During the New Year's holidays, the neighbors will also send them some things. In those years, everyone had no money, and it was all about the heart to send things, not too few eggs, not too many vegetable leaves. In comparison, among the four major families, although the medical family has a higher prestige in their own village, it is far less topical than the other three families.

Life, life. This is the name of the locals here, in fact, the family of fortune arts, learning is divination, prediction, feng shui and the like, in essence and Taoism, but the Taoist family, the focus is on exorcism and demons, and fortune telling, is to do things to see through the heavens, if the people of the family of the magic family are hated by the ghosts and gods, the people of the family of the magic family, is not tolerated by the sky.

Destiny, as the name suggests, is the art of knowing fate.

The ancients said: One life, two fortunes, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin virtue and five reading.

People who have learned the art of life usually do things that reveal the heavenly secrets, and as the Tao goes deeper and deeper, the curiosity and discontentment of the human heart will become greater and greater, and the more heavenly opportunities will be spied on, and the more heavenly opportunities will be spied on, and the death will not be far away. This is also why the Natology Family has become the most withered branch of the four major families. Those who know the destiny of heaven are not worried about the destiny of heaven. Compared with the other three families, the people of the life art family are all respectful. The older generation often said that if children see them, they must stay away and be careful of being contaminated with their "heavenly wrath". Those who spy on the heavens are jealous of the heavens, and they are easy to attract the wrath of the heavens. Even when the adults in the village met the people of the life art family, they only said hello from a distance and did not dare to approach. If the children of any family don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth, and run to play near the house of the family of the life arts, then if they know to the adults in the family, they will inevitably be beaten when they get home.

Listening to the older generation of people in the village, in the heyday of the life art family, there were eight people, and these eight people can be regarded as omnipotent in the eyes of ordinary people. It is said that there was a rich man in Shili Eight Townships, and after his father's death, he wanted to bury his father in a feng shui treasure land, so he found these eight brothers and gave them a large sum of money. The eight brothers couldn't resist the temptation, so they searched for the dragon point for this rich man, searched all over the mountains and rivers of Hainan, and found a dragon vein. Two months after the burial, there was an earthquake in the area. Hainan is not an earthquake-prone area, and the number of earthquakes has been limited to a handful for thousands of years. This earthquake is not big, but it is not small, but it has changed the dragon vein where the corpse is buried, so that the dragon vein has changed from auspicious to fierce, and the bones of the corpse have also been shaken out of the ground. The eight brothers were shocked after some deduction and hurriedly let the rich man be reburied. But the night before the reburial, suddenly a strong wind, lightning and thunder, and several thunderbolts fell from the sky, splitting seven of the eight brothers of the life magic family to pieces, and only one of them escaped by luck, but also ended up half-paralyzed. According to the older generation, this person revealed the secret to his son before he died, saying that the dragon vein he found in the dragon point was an extraordinary "living dragon", and the dragon was buried in the ground to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and the bones were buried on the dragon's head snort, which indirectly absorbed the aura of heaven and earth, and angered the dragon, so the dragon rose into the air, causing an earthquake, spewing out torrential rain and thunder, and hacking the seven brothers of the life magic family to death. Whoever peeps into the secrets of the world will not die well.

And our story starts with a family of life magic.
