Chapter 14: The Four Gods Orientation Gate
The carvings on the stone gate are vivid and vivid!
A dragon is fighting with a tiger, giving people an immersive feeling ・・・・・・!
Zhou Tianyi fell into deep thought・・・・・・?
"Zhou Family Genealogy" records that the ancestor Zhou Daoling refined the Nine Heavens Baodan in Yunjin Mountain, and the Baodan was first formed and the dragon and tiger appeared!
The dragon fights and attracts the wrath of the gods!
Two ancient beasts were sealed under Yunjin Mountain, and the predecessor of L Tiger Mountain was Yunjin Mountain, according to the genealogy, the dragon and the tiger were sealed under Yunjin Mountain, and this mountain seems to imply some secret?
two statues at the doorway; One foot on the tiger, one shoulder coil dragon, this is the momentum of the dragon and the tiger, the common point of each statue in the corridor is anger, but the angry expression is not the same, some eyes slightly closed expression solemn, with a trace of anger, some angry eyes and teeth clenched, some full of murderous ・・・・・・!
It can be seen that the carving level of craftsmen in ancient times has reached the point of being superb, reaching the peak!
They seem to be angry about the same thing again!
"Stick, can this door be opened?" Dong Tinghua asked.
Zhou Tianyi stared intently at the carving on the stone door, and found that the dragon lacked an eye, and the tiger lacked an ear, and fell into thought!
Seeing that Zhou Tianyi didn't answer himself!
Dong Tinghua touched the two stone statues placed at the door, as if he was looking for a mechanism to open the door, and the little beggar also learned ・・・・・・ with Dong Tinghua! I tried to find it, but I didn't find any mechanism!
I found that the eyes of a stone statue were a little special, and the other ear was a little shaky, so I pulled it out with a hard pull!
Dong Tinghua, the little beggar walked to Zhou Tianyi's side with one eyeball and one with his ears!
"God, can you open this door?" Dong Tinghua asked again.
"I don't know, what do you have in your hands?" Zhou Tianyi asked.
"It's nothing, it's just a stone, cut off from the top of the stone statue!" The little beggar said.
"It's best not to mess with things here, or it will cause unnecessary trouble!" Zhou Tianyi prompted.
Then he shone the miner's lamp on his head at the two statues erected at the door, these two statues were the unicorn and the lingjiao among the eight divine beasts!
The unicorn has an ear on the top of his head, his eyes are slightly closed as if he is smiling, the strange thing is that one of the two ears is missing, Dong Tinghua is holding that ear and watching carefully!
Lingjiao's eyes were wide open, and the other eye was running in the little beggar's hand!
The stone carvings of the divine beasts on both sides of the stone gate lack eyes and tiger ears, and the eyes of the two divine beasts can be taken down, but the ears can be taken down, are these two items the ・・・・・key to this gate!?
Zhou Tianyi took the Lingjiao eyeballs and unicorn ears, walked to the stone door and compared them, the size was almost the same, and the Lingjiao eyeballs in his hand were just right to put the unicorn ears in!
The dragon lacks one eye, and the tiger lacks one ear;
Zhou Tianyi didn't dare to put it in rashly, that might touch some organs!
Dong Tinghua, the little beggar saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart, but he didn't expect these two items to be the key to open the stone door, and at the same time, he admired Zhou Tianyi's observation and admiration!
The art of the mechanism, one mistake may be a catastrophe, although he holds the dragon eye in his hand, the tiger ear does not know which one to put first!
The dragon is a mythical beast in ancient times, and since that tiger dares to fight with the dragon, it must be the holy beast white tiger of ancient legends!
According to the Book of Changes, the four gods are located; They are the four god directions of the main east of the green dragon, the main west of the white tiger, the main north of the Vermilion Bird, and the main south of the Xuanwu!
the green dragon on the left, the white tiger on the right, the upper (front) Vermilion Bird, the lower (back) Xuanwu;
If you guess correctly, this stone gate should be the legendary 'Gate of the Four Gods'.
The book "Lu Ban Zhi" makes a simple introduction to the four gods and directions, which is actually a kind of mechanism technique. But there are many details that can be left after the baptism of history!
(This book, the four libraries have a collection)
Zhou Tianyi pondered for a moment; The green dragon and white tiger are locks, and the Vermilion Bird Xuanwu guards the heaven and the earth, looking up, when the miner's lamp on the head shines on the top of the road, there is a Vermilion Bird carved on the cliff above!
Little beggar, Dong Tinghua looked surprised by the light!
Zhou Tianyi took a few steps back, without any carved patterns under his feet, and thought, "Xuanwu must be under his feet!" "Squat on the ground and pick up a rock next to you and tap on the rocky ground!
"What are you doing?" Seeing Zhou Tianyi lying on the ground knocking on this, knocking on that Dong Tinghua asked curiously.
Zhou Tianyi, who seriously surveyed the ground, ignored Dong Tinghua!
"Knock knock ・・・・・・!"
There was a hollow sound underground!
"Come over here and help!" Zhou Tianyi said.
Found a gap between the stone slabs on the ground, the length and width of the stone slabs were about two meters long, and the three of them inserted daggers into the gap in the same direction, trying to pry up the stone slabs, and after tossing the stone slabs, they broke the two daggers without prying ・・・・・・!
The three of them were tired and panting, and sat on the ground!
"Divine stick, how did you know there was a carving on it? What's underneath this slate? Dong Tinghua asked.
At this time, the little beggar was holding a piece of chocolate to replenish his physical strength, which he consumed too much when climbing!
"This door, called the Four Gods Orientation Gate, according to legend, is the 'craftsman god Luban', the four ancient divine beasts, the green dragon and white tiger, the Vermilion Bird Xuanwu created. The book only gives some brief descriptions of the 'Four Gods Orientation Gate', and the specific details have been lost. If I'm not mistaken, under this slate should be Xuanwu, which also corresponds to the left green dragon, the right white tiger, the front (top) Vermilion Bird, and the back (bottom) Xuanwu! Zhou Tianyi pointed to the stone gate and explained.
Dong Tinghua, the little beggar admired, and looked at Zhou Tianyi with admiration: "God stick, you are too talented, how do you know so much?" ”
"The more you read, the more you naturally know, it's like you think about robbing houses all day long, soaking - girls, and returning your sister to a whole Jianghu people called 'bandits'!" Zhou Tianyi was proud and said sarcastically.
"Don't pretend to be a scholar in front of Lao Tzu, it's not that you don't know what kind of monster Lao Tzu is. TMD, you're a charlatan! Dong Tinghua sneered.
"Two big brothers, don't pinch it, hurry up and find a way to get the slate up and see if there are any treasures in it?" The little beggar said.
"There shouldn't be a baby, Wang Ba may have one!" Dong Tinghua said with a smile.
Zhou Tianyi stood on the stone slab, looked at the carved Vermilion Bird on his head and thought: "The Vermilion Bird is the main fire, the Xuanwu is the main water, under the Xuanwu is the Luxi River, and the scorching sun is in the sky above the Vermilion Bird, these two organs should be inseparable from water and fire, but water and fire are incompatible, what is the mystery hidden in this organ?"
If the dragon's eye and the tiger's ears are placed in the wrong order, one of the organs will be touched, the green dragon is born in the water, and the white tiger is in the mountain, then the green dragon is connected to the Xuanwu, and the white tiger is connected to the Vermilion Bird! ”
"Since the stone slab can't be opened, we won't fight, you guys stay back and try not to stand next to the stone statue!" Zhou Tianyi said.
"I said it earlier, I didn't fight after so much effort, and I amused my brothers!" Dong Tinghua said dissatisfiedly.
Zhou Tianyi glanced back at Dong Tinghua and the little beggar, he didn't know if his calculation was correct, if he made a wrong judgment, he might die under this door!
When he saw Zhou Tianyi's smiling expression and resolute eyes, Dong Tinghua was shocked: "It's not good, the magic stick won't ・・・・・・!" "But it's too late, Zhou Tianyi has already pressed the dragon's eye into the Qinglong's eye socket hard・・・・・・!
Respect the dragon's eyes and return the tiger's ears;
"Divine stick ・・・・・・!" Dong Tinghua shouted worriedly.
"Don't come here!" Zhou Tianyi shouted.
The little beggar and Dong Tinghua immediately stopped!
Respecting the dragon did not touch the mechanism, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time!
Zhou Tianyi carefully docked the tiger ear on the tiger head of the tiger statue and pressed it hard!
The three of them stared nervously at Shimen!
Suddenly, there was a sound of running water in the cave・・・・・・!
The voices grew louder and louder, and the three of them showed shocked expressions at the same time・・・・・・!?
