Chapter 7: The Formation of Differences
When we went back to the room and separated Li Daxue, the fat uncle told the reason why Li Daxue's sister was rushed.
"Qi Formation (Qi Qi second tone, Xi Mo fourth tone), the Song Dynasty dropped things, and they were lost long ago, or the fourth (yes) Li Daxue Society arrived (said) Baisha This thing, I'm afraid I can't remember this formation." The fat uncle's face rarely showed a cautious expression, lit a cigarette and smoked a few puffs, and slowly told us the origin of this formation.
In Uncle Fat's house, there is an ancient book called "Tomb Array", the content of this book is very strange, the name looks like a classic book of feng shui, but the content is similar to the wild history.
Some of the formations in the ancient and modern cemeteries are recorded in this book, not only the formations, but also the origin of these formations, and even the mausoleum owners protected by the formations also have a role in it.
According to the records of this book, the first appearance of this thing was in the Kaibao period of the Song Dynasty.
Its appearance is inextricably linked to the death of an emperor.
Speaking of the death of the emperor during the Kaibao period, you must have thought of it, that's right, the emperor who died was Zhao Kuangyin, who had "released military power with a glass of wine".
According to the book, Zhao Kuangyin died on the night of October 19 in the ninth year of Kaibao, and the cause of death was not written.
(Zhao Kuangyin's death has always been an unsolved mystery, whether it was conspired by Zhao Guangyi to kill or whether there was something else hidden, no one can tell.) The exact time of Zhao Kuangyin's death is difficult to determine, there are many debates in history, and Uncle Fat's book says that he died on the night of the 19th. )
Three days later, an old Taoist suddenly came to the palace, this person is said to have been specially found by Zhao Guangyi, and the purpose of finding the old Taoist is to let him lay out the mausoleum of his brother Zhao Kuangyin, so as not to steal the treasures in the mausoleum by future generations.
The theft of treasures is small, but the tomb is buried in the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty Zhao Kuangyin, if even the tomb of the founding emperor is stolen, then the later emperors of the Song Dynasty will basically have no face.
"This person doesn't spread (what) the right way, and the layout and methods are all evil and crooked." The fat uncle shook his head.
The mausoleum where Zhao Kuangyin is buried is called Yongchang Mausoleum, located in Gongyi City, Henan Province, although it is not more complicated than the decoration of the Song Mausoleum of the later emperors, but it has created the standard of the Song Dynasty emperor's mausoleum.
The Yongchang Mausoleum is composed of the upper palace, the lower palace, the tomb of the Empress of the Song Dynasty of Xiaozhang, the tomb of the Empress of the Song Dynasty of Zhanghuai, and two accompanying tombs.
The imperial mausoleum of the emperor of later generations is mostly imitated by the structure of Yongchang Mausoleum, although the "style" is almost the same, but the things inside are much more oily and water than Zhao Kuangyin's mausoleum.
Today, there is mostly grassland near the Yongchang Mausoleum, but hundreds of years ago, the vicinity of the Yongchang Mausoleum was a sandy land.
This is the bureau laid out by the old Tao at the beginning, and the battle is called the Qi Array.
Buried gold threads under six feet of soil outside the mausoleum, a total of six gold threads are buried, and the length of each gold wire is about 20 to 25 zhang, and the threads can be knotted and connected to each other to extend, but they cannot be broken.
These six gold lines do not intersect with each other, with the mausoleum where Zhao Kuangyin is buried as the center, and the whole is buried six times around the mausoleum under the soil of the outer circle, and each circle is a gold line.
These gold threads are not ordinary gold threads, each gold thread is about the thickness of chopsticks, buried in the loess before being "added" by the old Taoist priest, almost every other zhang of gold thread is embroidered with spells.
These are just the initial preparations, and more complex processes are yet to come.
"Kill the living, detain his soul at the moment of death, and then use the spell of separating the soul to completely separate the three souls and the seven spirits, and use a special method to seal these separated souls into the golden thread, the book says that a total of three people died in this process, that is to say, the formation of the mausoleum is still processing, and the old Taoist priest has already prepared the three Hui Hui and the three evils."
Uncle Fat's Mandarin at this time is standard again, it seems that his language mode has begun to switch, I saw him smoking helplessly, and pointed to the floor with a finger: "That old Taoist has some ability, Yan Hui and Evil are both injustices that will not be dealt with by Taoism, I don't know what method the Taoist priest used, he really sealed the injustice, and directly made the formation into a "perpetual motion machine", and he also boasted to Zhao Guangyi about Haikou."
Speaking of this, the fat uncle spit out the cigarette butt to the ground, shook his head and said, "There is no solution, it is the array of peace." ”
Hai Dongqing and I both understood the meaning of these words, the meaning was obvious and arrogant.
- The formation is a formation with no way to solve the formation, it belongs to a perfect formation, there is no place for outsiders to take advantage of the loophole, and it is basically impossible to solve this game.
The fat uncle lit another cigarette and explained to us with a smile how this situation works.
Before listening to how this works, I thought that the old Taoist priest was a bit arrogant, and his mouth was either bragging or bragging.
But after listening to this principle, my expression changed from disdain to shock, the old Taoist priest was not bragging, it seemed that he was really a little awesome.
Both evil and evil wisdom have a characteristic, that is, they can't be separated for too long, and the longer they are separated, the greater their resentment, and the greater their ability will naturally be.
The six golden lines are like six highways for ghosts to wander, each golden line is sealed with a sin, and the distance between the golden line and the golden line is not far, which will give the evil and the evil Hui an illusion, their three souls (seven spirits) are next to it, as long as they keep wandering in the golden line to find, they should be able to find the missing part of themselves.
This illusion directly leads to the perpetual motion principle of the Qi Array.
Ordinary tomb protection formations, most of them are useless if the formation is broken, or the tomb will be invalid after a long time, and after the invalidation, outsiders entering the tomb to take away the treasure is like probing the bag to take things.
If you want to truly keep the safety of a cemetery, you must first ensure that the formation of protecting the tomb will not be broken, and second, you must ensure the "shelf life" of the formation.
- I don't know how to study the array, those gold threads seem to have undergone special processing, even if the years of historical changes pass, the gold threads will still not be naturally dissolved.
In Uncle Fat's guess, the gold thread will not be dissolved, it must have something to do with the old Tao, since there is a way to keep the corpse from decaying in the metaphysical line, then maybe the old Taoist priest has really developed a set of methods to keep the gold thread from disappearing.
If the golden line formation is guaranteed not to dissolve, it is considered to ensure the shelf life of the formation.
But if the formation is not complicated enough, it will inevitably be broken, even if the shelf life is long, what's the use? Isn't that the same fancy shelf that doesn't work?
The old Taoist priest also understands this, so the Qi Qi Array he made is simply a bug in the game.
He took advantage of the principle that evil and evil wisdom were constantly swimming in the golden thread, and the array he laid was like a perpetual motion machine, which was in a state of movement anytime and anywhere.
Ordinary people must use a "soft" method if they want to break the formation, and those who break the formation are generally stupid, and no one will do that.
But the "temper" of this Qi Formation is not good, even if you come softly or with a small movement, the formation will still find you, and things will be wonderful after discovering you.
"The six sins rush to the body, and even the four (yes) ancestors can't stand it." The fat uncle sighed: "If you are rushed by one sin, you will not die immediately, and if you are rushed by Huihui, you will not die immediately, but if you want to be four (yes) by six sins at the same time, the vicious attack on the heart is to drop four (things) in an instant." ”
I gasped, frowned and asked: "According to what you said, the shelf life of this formation is not long, since they are all rushing into people's bodies together, then these injustices will naturally be able to reconcile with the missing parts. ”
"Harmony fart, you melon skin." The fat uncle glanced at me, and said to me angrily in the mode of the last Shaanxi dialect and the next Mandarin: "The mantra in the golden thread has two functions, one is to seal the injustice, let it travel in the golden thread in a proper manner, and the other is to play a role in opening the formation. ”
"Sealed in the golden thread for decades and hundreds of years, these grievances of injustice have long been extraordinary, and they can't speak the same day as the original soul, they will feel that some of them are still in the golden thread, and after killing the living, they will return to the golden thread, give you an analogy." The fat uncle pointed at himself, raised his eyebrows and asked me in Shaanxi dialect: "When you are hungry, you are thin, you have eight-pack abs, you look like Tony Leung, and you have also started to speak English, will you recognize Hungry?" ”
Hai Dongqing shuddered, turned his head expressionlessly, and seemed to be unable to bear to look directly at the fat uncle.
"You go on, I don't interject." I said with a smirk.
The fat uncle glared at me fiercely, gasped and continued.
There are two sides to everything, and it is a good thing that the threat of the formation is high, because this ensures that the imperial tomb will not be stolen by outsiders, but there is also a bad side.
What if the emperor of later generations wants to pay tribute to the ancestor Zhao Kuangyin? Didn't he die as soon as he stepped near the mausoleum? Even if he understands that there is a formation here to protect him and he can't get close, he can't say that he will be injured by mistake, right?
The old Taoist priest also took this into account, so he ordered someone to cover a layer of white sand near the emperor's tomb, and laid out a second formation, the Gensha Formation.
This thing is the insurance he did for the royal family.
With this formation covering the ground, the Qi Formation will not be so sensitive, from the beginning of stepping on the land where the buried gold line will kill you, to you will be killed if you break the ground.
"I've heard this formation from the old man, it seems to be a Taoist thing." I nodded and said, "The white sand covers the ground and is impervious, once the earth is broken and the evil is turned back, this formation seems to be used to suppress the evil spirits underground. ”
The fat uncle nodded with a smile and asked me: "What is the most important thing about the Yongchang Tomb of the Knowing Dao, has it been stolen?" ”
Hai Dongqing and I both shook our heads.
Suddenly, Hai Dongqing opened his mouth and interjected: "The Yongchang Tomb was stolen for the first time, it seems that Liu Yu, the emperor of Great Qi, did it, right?" ”
"He's just four melon skins." The fat uncle sneered: "Or the fourth (yes) when it rained heavily, he ordered hundreds of officers and soldiers to rob the tomb, and there was someone behind him to give advice, he could happen to break this game?" ”
