Volume 3 Chapter 62 The Ruins of Chenjia'ao
Mao Xiaotian and Lu Ming were confused by Zhuge Vic's words, and glanced at each other, not fully understanding what he meant. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhuge Wei looked at the doubts in the eyes of the two of them, and continued to explain, "In ancient times, there were troops stationed outside the Longmen, and the Zhuge generals you know are one of the generals for hundreds of years, and their stationing place is in the mountain behind Chenjiaao. The meaning of the existence of the army is to protect Chenjiaao on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to serve as a foreign aid army of Longmen. ”
Zhuge Wei said that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the world was peaceful, and in order to respond to the call, this self-made army also became a formal army and went to other places to station.
However, Chen Jiaao still has the ancestral teachings of their existence, so the patriarch of the Chen clan and his direct relatives cannot leave Chen Jiaao for generations.
The loss of the seal, after a long time, the Chen family also declined, and even the direct relatives of the Chen family only a few people knew their family's mission. This is different from the Zhuge family, more and more people in the new era no longer follow the ancestral family law, so this is also one of the reasons for the decline of the Chen family.
In fact, Zhuge Wei didn't know what the seal was for, but he knew that Zhuge Kunyi told him that only by becoming the patriarch of the family could he know the core secrets of the two families, and about the real role of the seal, he could also know the meaning of the seal's existence.
The Chen family was suddenly killed, which caught the Zhuge family off guard, the seal was lost first, the Chen family was wiped out later, the ancestors were cloudy, the chapter was in the people, and the chapter was destroyed.
The patriarch of Zhuge thought that this was an omen, an omen about the fate of the two families, the Chen family came first, and if the Zhuge family could not find the seal, they would also follow in the footsteps of the Chen family. It seems that this seal has become intertwined with the fate of these two families and is inseparable. It has long been destined in the dark, and if you want to change, you can't try to do it.
Now I don't know if there is any remnant of the bloodline of the Chen clan back then, and if so, why haven't you gone to Longmen to find the Zhuge clan for help for so many years? What happened back then that caused a good Chen Jiaao to become a ruin overnight?
Therefore, although the Chen family suffered a catastrophe, the Zhuge family could not give up looking for the whereabouts of the seal, and at the same time, they were also looking for the orphans of the Chen family, but there were no clues for many years. It wasn't until Lu Ming's clues appeared that there were later actions such as Longhu Mountain.
Listening to Zhuge Wei's kung fu, the three of them had already walked into the ruins of Chenjiaao from the boundary monument.
Although the entire Chenjiaao has been exposed to wind and rain for many years, the tragic scene of the year can still be seen.
At a glance, the eyes are full of desolation, ruins and broken walls, and charred black dead wood stands quietly in front of and behind the house, and there are traces of fire burning one after another. Far and near, you can see the burned beams falling, horizontal and vertical, and smashing on the side of the door and window.
Looking at the ruins in front of him, Mao Xiaotian asked, "Brother Zhuge , was Chen Jiaao destroyed by a fire?" ”
Zhuge Wei paused for a moment before replying, "Actually, this is not entirely true at all. Although it seems that Chenjiaao was caused by a fire, this is a village, not a downtown area, and although the fire can destroy houses, it is unlikely that it will consume everyone's lives. As long as there is a fire in the village, everyone will work together to extinguish the fire, even if the fire is very large, everyone will disperse, and the casualties will not be too great. However, Chen Jiaao is a house and people are left here. ”
Mao Xiaotian continued: "Didn't you say that it was at night? Maybe everyone is asleep, so no one notices the fire? ”
Lu Ming looked at this piece of ruins, shook his head, and answered Mao Xiaotian's question before Zhuge Wei opened his mouth, "No." I grew up in a mountain village and understand the habits of people living in a mountain village. Judging from the situation here, the fire at that time only burned down Chenjiaao, or it seems that a big fireball only swallowed Chenjiaao, but did not swallow anything other than Chenjiaao. In other words, the fire was extinguished after engulfing Chen's home. ”
Zhuge Wei nodded and said, "Lu Ming is right, this is the mystery of Chen Jiaao's disappearance. No one knows exactly what happened that night. Xiaotian's question was also a question that many people wanted to ask, but after so many years, no one came to reveal the answer. ”
Lu Ming said softly on the side: "Maybe it's soon." ”
Zhuge Wei didn't seem to hear what Lu Ming said, and asked suspiciously, "What did you say?" ”
Lu Ming didn't answer and continued to walk forward.
Along the way, Lu Ming checked the number of houses from beginning to end, and there were a total of fifty-five households in Chenjiaao, and they were all on the same line. And the courtyard of the last family was very large, enough to be four or five times the size of other houses, and I think this is the residence of the patriarch of the Chen family.
Lu Ming pointed to the ruined courtyard in front of him, and asked Zhuge Wei, "This should be the home of the patriarch of the Chen family, right?" ”
"Yes, there are a total of fifty-five households in Chenjiaao, twenty-seven on each side, and the head of this household is the residence of the Chen patriarch, and the ancestral ancestral hall of the Chen family was also in this courtyard in the past." Zhuge Wei nodded and introduced. This is also the last time he came, Zhuge Kunyi told him.
"Twenty-seven households on the left, twenty-seven households on the right, so to speak, this is arranged according to the technique of 39." Mao Xiaotian pointed to the left with his left, then to the right, and held his chin with his right hand, and said.
When Lu Ming heard this, he turned around and asked, "What do you say?" What is the Art of Thirty-Nine? ”
Lu Ming didn't miss the opportunity to learn the Dao method now, especially when Mao Xiaotian said that this was arranged by the Thirty-Nine Technique, Lu Ming felt in his heart that it should be some kind of formation or something. So I don't forget to ask for advice when I hear these all the time.
Mao Xiaotian continued, "The so-called technique of three nines refers to the acquisition of three extremes of nine, one nine is the sky, twenty-nine is the earth, and three nine is the man. Then the three nines refer to heaven, earth and man.
I remember seeing a relevant record in an ancient book, about the ancient times there was a kind of suppression of Yin soldiers with the 39 formation.
Judging from the layout of Chenjiaao, the left 39 and the right 39 have the first order. It is indeed very similar to the ancient Sanjiu formation. ”
Lu Ming looked at Zhuge Wei and asked, "Senior, do you know this?" ”
Zhuge Wei glanced at Mao Xiaotian, shook his head, and said, "I don't know much about the formation, and I have never heard of this kind of ancient three-nine formation, and I have never heard of it from my grandfather." Xiaotian is Maoshan orthodox, and he has a lot of research on the formation, maybe it is really as he said, the layout here is really the 39 formation. I'll go back and ask my grandfather for verification of this matter, maybe grandpa will know something. ”
