The fat man said: "You kid don't come to this set, this is a stupid thing that Alibaba does, you have to do it yourself, you want to use me as a gunman, otherwise if you let the big golden tooth know about it after you go back, you will definitely have to make up a new joke for the fat man, this commander's cold and lonely temperament and style, how difficult is it to cultivate?" How can I let you spoil it all. ”

In the end, the fat man came up with an idea, if Professor Sun could go over to paint the door without losing face, he would return half of his notes first, and Sun Jiuye heard that this condition was acceptable, so he didn't even say a word, and expressed his willingness to be "Alibaba" on the spot.

I took out the pen and ink in the gold box, poured some water to open the black ink, dipped the tip of the Guanshan magic pen to the full, handed it to Sun Jiuye, and solemnly instructed him: "Try to draw like a little bit, and don't forget to read after painting - open the door with sesame seeds." ”

Professor Sun sighed: "Probably because I was too smart in the past, and now I am confused, and I use a brush to draw doors on the mountain to find the way...... This...... It's not the smartest move I've ever done in my life, or the stupidest move I've ever done in my life, but no matter what, I'm just teaching you to force it......" He complained while chattering, while picking up the pen and walking to the cliff, he first drew a large square box, and then added a vertical path in the middle, and drew two circles on each side, as a "door knocker", this mountain gate is finished, although the painting is sloppy, but it can be regarded as a work of both form and spirit.

Everyone quietly stood in front of the wall, staring at the painted gate without blinking, this moment turned out to be extraordinarily long, I felt my heart pinch up, I repeatedly silently recited in my heart: "Sesame open the door......"

After a while, my eyes were sour, but on the mountain wall in the canyon, there was no movement in the painted gate, and the ink marks gradually dried, and it was still just a painting.

We look at the mountains and sigh. Although I knew that it might be the mystery of the unsolved "Magic Brush of Viewing the Mountain", which caused the painting door to be fruitless, I could no longer think of any other way to open the door of the painting, so I had to follow the previous agreement, let the fat man return the first half of Professor Sun's work notes to him, and the second half of the book recorded his research on the "Guiru Hexagram Mirror" part of the book, which still has to be temporarily left in our hands.

The fat man said to Professor Sun: "Don't be sad, didn't you return all the notes to you, and think we are a little unrighteous?" But don't forget that it's the ninth master, you are unkind first. There are dead ghosts in every temple. Only you, Sun Laojiu, have always done a lot of deception, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to be justified if you want to shout injustice, so listen to the fat man's kind words and persuasion, and simply don't think about it. Hurry up and take this half of the notebook first. ”

Professor Sun took the notebook with a blushing face and hid it in his arms, and said to the fat man: "So far, do you think I still care about this notebook? I'm worried about what we're going to do next? After speaking, he turned his head and asked me, "Hu Bayi, do you still have any ghost ideas?" ”

At this time, I naturally can't reveal half of the difficulty, so I can only pick up some words to pat my chest and say: "The matter of viewing the mountain and painting the ground is the door, we are afraid that we will not be able to understand it for a while, but there is no dead body at the bottom of this canyon, which is where the secret treasure of the South China Sea returns to the ruins of the hexagram mirror." If the situation was not a last resort, I didn't want to use this killer trick, but this place is already the place where the coffin gorge mountain is exhausted, and when will it not be necessary to rob the tomb ancient art? "The art of tomb robbery, in fact, is not only the secret art of feng shui to observe the terrain of the mountain, but also "look at the mud marks, observe the soil quality, observe the water flow, observe the grass color, and smell the soil, listen to the ground, ask the sky to hit the armor, if you use this method, you will not lose one." ”

I immediately found a flat stone. Take out the "Bronze Hexagram Mirror" and the "Fish and Dragon Hexagram Talisman", and prepare to perform the "Ask" character formula in the four tips of tomb robbery.

Professor Sun has been obsessed with this mysterious "Returning to the Ruins Hexagram Mirror" for a long time, but he is suffering from the fact that he does not know how to use the method of "candle mirror", and he does not trust my method very much, so he immediately approached and asked.

Shirley Yang is also very interested in this, after all, the legend of the art of "asking the tomb" has been lost for thousands of years, and few people can say that it is famous now. Including the blind man Chen who was the thief of the Jieling Ridge back then, and the partridge whistle of the mountain movers. I don't know anything about it.

I had to make some simple explanations to Professor Sun and Shirley Yang, in the Han and Tang dynasties, there was the act of asking the sky to make hexagrams, that is, the so-called "asking the tomb" technique, according to the use of witchcraft utensils, this technique has two ways since ancient times, one is "candle mirror", the other is "candle to turtle".

If it is replaced with a modern concept, it can be understood as between "heart" and "matter", "heart" and "thing" should be one, "heart" is man, "thing" is heaven, heart and thing are one, and the heart and thing are one, neither pure idealism nor complete materialism.

The element that connects the spirit and the material is the "qi" mentioned in Feng Shui, and in the good place full of vitality, you can use the secret weapon of Feng Shui to get a glimpse of this formless and qualitative "vitality".

Most of the tools that can be used as feng shui secret weapons are ancient bronzes, or they are buried in the feng shui treasure cave for many years in the tortoiseshell keel, because these utensils can not be used repeatedly, so after the Tang and Song dynasties, there are almost no tomb robbers who use the ancient method of "asking the tomb to occupy the test", which is the main reason for the loss of this technique.

Professor Sun claimed that he had seen it more than once in some historical materials, and that the word "ask" should be true, not an idealistic legend, but the "Guiru Hexagram Mirror" is no better than ordinary bronze tripod vessels, and the hexagrams in the ancient mirror are arranged according to the number of Zhou Tian hexagrams.

I didn't answer immediately, I took the two bronze talismans of fish and dragon in my hand, and thought carefully about Zhang Zhichuan's guidance, the mysterious "Sixteen Character Zhoutian Ancient Hexagram" contains "hexagrams, hexagrams, and hexagrams", and their relationship is - deduce the "hexagrams" from the "hexagrams", and then interpret the "hexagrams" by the "hexagrams", these three complement each other and are indispensable, and it is difficult to say which is the main and which is secondary.

The most comprehensive and detailed record of these three should be the "Zhou Tian Sixteen Hexagram Complete Map", but now there are no unearthed antiquities in the world to see, maybe there is still a Zhou Tian hexagram hidden in the ancient tomb of "Dixian Village", so Professor Sun is willing to give up his family and abandon his business, and come here with us to adventure thousands of miles away.

I didn't know anything about the real "Zhou Tian Sixteen Hexagrams" before, but when I was in the South China Sea, I had heard Longhu Guchai recite the entire Zhou Tian Hexagram, and I was fortunate enough to know Zhang Zhichuan, with his help, through Guò's repeated deduction of the "Zhou Tian Hexagram" and "Bronze Hexagram Mirror, Bronze Hexagram Symbol", and found a way to use the "Guixu Ancient Mirror".

I said to Professor Sun and Shirley Yang: "There are 16 Zhou Tian hexagram symbols, which are represented by different specific symbols in different deductions, and the fish, dragon, man, and ghost represent a small Zhou Tian cycle, which is specially used to occupy the orientation and space of the ancient tomb site. ”

Professor Sun shook his head again and again: "Fallacy, it's ridiculous, if you say that these four bronze hexagrams are all symbols of life forms, or symbols of living beings, there is still some credible Cheng dù, but how can they represent direction and space?" It's too outrageous, your Senior Brother Zhang is probably a Jianghu warlock, it is obviously a bunch of nonsense, the bronze mirror and copper talisman are peerless secret treasures, you must not use them indiscriminately. ”

Her previous experience in Kunlun Mountain made Shirley Yang more convinced of my theory of easy learning, but she also found it difficult to understand, and said: "I don't understand the way of change in the I Ching, but Lao Hu said that the four bronze ancient talismans of fish, dragon, human, and ghost can be used to occupy the spatial orientation of the ancient tomb, can there be any basis?" ”

I said to everyone: "Don't look at Professor Sun has been studying the Dragon Bone Book for many years, but he is indeed stubborn, he is a brain that does not open his shell, he can only imagine that the four symbols of fish, dragon, man, and ghost are the life forms between heaven and earth, but he can't think of a deeper level, and the existence of heaven and earth space is precisely for life." This is the concept of a holographic universe in which heaven and man are one, and in fact, the secret lies in the bronze hexagram without eyes. ”

Professor Sun said solemnly: "Although my research results have not been taken seriously, but after all, I have studied a lot of results, and the results are always objectively stored and no one can erase them. I'm talking ugly ahead, don't look at the ancient mirror of Guiru that you fished back from the bottom of the sea, but I must not listen to your nonsense. Let you destroy this rare treasure at will. ”

I snorted disdainfully. said to Professor Sun: "If I really want to scrap this bronze ancient mirror casually, you really can't stop it, but Lao Hu, I have always persuaded people with reason, so I will give you a lesson today, and quickly take a pen and record it carefully." Don't live at the height of the temple and become short-sighted, and you can't see the distance of the rivers and lakes clearly. ”

I pointed to the Zhou Tian copper sign on the back of the "Guiru Hexagram Mirror" for Professor Sun to see, each copper box has a symbol on it, and the bronze hexagram should be embedded in the corresponding position, the copper symbol has no eyes, in fact, it is not eyeless, but represents the spatial limitations of life, to be exact, it should be "invisible".

The ancient Chinese understanding of space was formed thousands of years ago, and it is very close to the modern scientific concept. It can also be said that modern science has developed for thousands of years, but there has never been much progress in the concept of space.

The four bronze symbols are "fish, dragon, man, ghost", in the ancient traditional concept, fish can not see water, people can not see the wind, "wind" should be now called air, people live in the atmosphere. It's the same as fish living in water, they all live in a substance that they can't see.

In the ancient people's concept, ghosts have always lived underground, and ghosts are in the ground, just like people in the wind or fish in water, of course, "ghosts" and "dragons" are just a concept in traditional Chinese literature.

When Professor Sun heard this, he already had an epiphany. Slapped the top of his head: "Yes...... People can't see the wind, ghosts can't see the ground, and fish can't see the water, I didn't think of it in the first place. That...... And what about dragons? Dragons are as illusory as ghosts, what can't dragons see? Say it quickly, talk about it......"

I saw that Professor Sun was anxious enough, it seemed that he had moved the real fire, and the possibility of convulsions after excitement was not impossible, so I stopped selling with him, and bluntly said: "In the concept of the ancients, the dragon is the spirit of all things in the totem, and the dragon itself cannot see any matter at all, the dragon can only see life in the end, that is, those beings with souls, and the rest of whether it is wind, water or earth, the dragon is invisible, which is repeatedly mentioned in the ancients - the dragon does not see a thing." ”

Therefore, the four symbols of "fish, dragon, man, and ghost" are actually a circular spatial summary, according to the corresponding marks of "people do not see the wind, ghosts do not see the ground, fish do not see water, and dragons do not see a qiē thing", the hexagram is included in the copper box on the back of the ancient mirror, and then a candle refined from the oil ointment of the South China Sea merman can occupy the position of the ancient tomb.

Shirley Yang said: "It would be easy to know the principle, but we only have two of the four bronze talismans in our hands, and two of the four are missing, but how can we be good?" ”

I sighed the tooth flowers, the bronze hexagram is incomplete, it is indeed extremely difficult, when the "moving the mountain, unloading the ridge" partnership to steal the ancient tomb of Hexi Bottle Mountain, has excavated the "bronze man, copper ghost" two symbols, but today, the two ancient talismans and the Dan furnace in the Bottle Mountain Dan Palace have been included in the treasure house of the Hunan Museum, we even see the real thing is difficult, let alone to find the dragon and fight upside down.

Fortunately, among the two bronze talismans in my hand, there is a "bronze dragon talisman", which accounts for the total symbol, and then there is a "bronze fish talisman" to complement it, at least half of the hexagram can be deduced in the ancient mirror, maybe it will not be too accurate, but as long as there is a vague hint, it should be satisfied, then again, even if there are really four bronze talismans, can reflect the Monday hexagram in the mirror, I don't know the hexagrams, most of them are also like images without solutions, and it is not as easy to interpret half of the acquired hexagrams.

I placed the hexagram on the back of the "Ancient Mirror of the Ruins", let everyone gather in a circle, and lit a "mackerel candle", the hole in the eye of the bronze talisman happened to be a hexagram, and the candlelight seemed to leak from it on the back hexagram of the mirror.

At this time, it is necessary to refer to the heavenly stem, the earthly branch, and the time of Jiazi, etc., to rotate the number of circles that can be moved on the back of the ancient mirror, and finally the candle shadows illuminated by the copper dragon and the copper fish are cast in the two ancient figures, and the little sea qi left in the bronze mirror has also dispersed some at this time.

Sun Jiuye has studied the dragon bone book for many years, and the most basic ones of the river Tuluo number and hexagram have long been familiar, and when he saw the hexagram presented, he even claimed to be surprised, and said happily: "This is Kun, and the other is...... Gen, what do you mean? Where is the ancient tomb of Dixian Village? ”

I stared at the hexagram on the back of the ancient mirror of Guiru, and said to everyone: "This hexagram is Gen in Kun, Kun is the earth, Gen is the mountain, there is a mountain in the earth, and the mountain is also the meaning of the tomb. ”

When everyone heard what I said, they all looked up at the high mountain in front of them again, the mountain in the "Coffin Gorge" is too high and steep, and the clouds and mist are entangled, and the shape is steep and majestic, it is difficult to display the means of "a thousand feet to observe the shape, a hundred feet to see the situation, divide the gold and fix the hole, and go straight through the middle palace".

I also felt quite embarrassed, and suddenly felt helpless, could I only touch the row meter by meter? If you do that, I'm afraid that there will be no results in a year and a half, and what we lack most now is time, but there are disadvantages and advantages, and it is more gratifying that the previous road was not in vain, and our expedition team is indeed getting closer and closer to the "Ancient Tomb of Dixian Village".

But we don't know the scale and layout of the "Dixian Village Ancient Tomb" at all, and if you want to dig a thief hole, you will drill into the ground, which is more difficult than climbing to the sky, but it is a pity that there is no time at this moment, otherwise there will be a thunderstorm at this time, I can also learn the method of "listening to the sound and distinguishing the hole", listening to the ground with a bamboo tube, and the thunder is transmitted from the underground. Listening to the prioritization, drearyness, and proximity of its reverberation, one can hear the underground situation clearly, but now there is neither wind nor rain nor thunder, and one can only be in a hurry without a curse.

I suddenly remembered that there seems to be a method of "calling the wind and calling the rain" in the mountain moving and reclamation technique, where the mountains are closed, and the clouds and mist are gathered in the deep valleys, and there are just signs of thunderstorms, but the magic of "moving mountains and roads" is too mysterious, and not everything we can understand lightly. According to records, if you want to seek a heavy thunderstorm, you need to have at least one "male mouse egg", which is probably the oval shape of a white flower, two circles smaller than a quail egg, like a stone but not a stone, like a bone but not a bone. Soak it in horn cup water, but I've never heard of any "male mouse eggs", male and female yin and yang do know, presumably it may be male rat eggs, but how can male rats lay eggs? And even the mother mouse should not lay eggs, and if she was born with doubts, she asked Shirley Yang to inquire, can such a simple way make God thunder and rain? God has always had a big temper and is moody. Can he be so obedient and let him do whatever he wants?

Shirley Yang has a good memory, almost has the ability to never forget, she said, the specific saying in the "moving mountain" should be - Yin and Yang combined and then there is rain, Yin and Yang are thin, feeling and thunder, and the excitement is thunder, this was originally the "Xiongnu Law", the Han Dynasty, in the grassland desert witch activities will be used, with a pot of pure water soaked in special stones, repeatedly washed constantly, holding the spell for a long time, both will rain, the stone is called "Yu Da", the largest is the size of an egg, the smallest is like a bean. These stones are all produced in the belly of the beasts on the earth, among which the two treasures of cattle and horses are the most wonderful. It is also the most rare, and later this technique spread to the hands of the mountain movers, although they do not know the spell, but according to this side to immerse the stone in water, it can also cause rain.

I think I basically understand more than half of it, this thing is similar to the ancient corpse we are looking for "Neidan", but one dead and one alive, the treasure in the belly of the beast, also belongs to the "Neidan", in fact, they are all a kind of internal stones, it is the essence of the sun and the moon absorbed by the birds and beasts, and the essence of the sun and the moon is also the yin and yang between heaven and earth, mixed with water infiltration and friction, and it is the "yin and yang combined and then rained" in the scriptures, which makes the nearby ** aggregation and thunder and lightning agitation.

Shirley Yang said and said that all the stones in the abdomen of the beast, although in the eyes of the ancients are collectively called "Neidan", but each has another name, the so-called "male mouse egg", that is, the mouse Neidan, with the "male mouse egg" in the mountain thunderstorm is the most miraculous, can be said to be a hundred tried.

For example, all the stones produced by male rats have naturally generated runes on them, which are clearly recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", and it is not a rumor that is spread in vain. For example, the hundred-year-old hedgehog will have mirror marks under his armpits, and the stones of pigs and sheep will have seals, all of which have their own different effects, cattle have yellow in the gallbladder, dogs have ink in the kidneys, and the stones of cattle are called bezoars, born in the gallbladder; Dog stones are born in the kidneys and are called "dog ink". In addition, the treasure of the horse, the yellow of the camel, the jade of the antlers, and the sky of the horns are all such things, with different effects and effects, and the list goes on.

Like the corpse pill, they are all rare things that can be encountered but cannot be sought, where can I find these things now? Besides, there are many things left by the ancients, and many modern people can't understand them, so even if they really find it, it may not work, Shirley Yang advised me not to be whimsical first, now I have no clue, and it is useless to be in a hurry to get angry, all the way to this place, everyone is already a little tired, you might as well rest on the spot and then reason.

I saw that everyone had indeed not eaten all day, and the twelve buildings had been empty for a long time, and they were so hungry that their hearts were close to their backs, and they were already a little disturbed, and I saw that the valley was empty and lonely, and there would be no beasts, so I had to decide to rest in place for a while, and then think about it in the long run.

Everyone was laying sleeping bags in the nearby hills, and they didn't even bother to light the campfire, and ate some compressed biscuits and canned food indiscriminately, and I was full of worries, and I discussed with Shirley Young a plan of action for tomorrow, and I didn't care how much to eat, so I let the other four rest first, and I came to the vigil first.
