Tang Chen was also stunned: "Isn't this common sense?"

Wang Dongxu asked rhetorically: "What common sense?"

"Geography common sense!" Tang Chen said seriously, "The geography book says that the riverbed will gradually widen under the erosion of flowing water, forming a floodplain. Due to the action of the water flow, the river course will change frequently, which is why it is often said that thirty rivers are east and thirty years are west. In Feng Shui, this is called dragon qi transfer......"

As soon as he said this, Wang Dongxu understood: "So that's the case, and there is this kind of scientific explanation! It's an eye-opener, it's really an eye-opener! Master Tang knows geography, and his education should not be low, right?"

Tang Chen scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I just graduated from my undergraduate degree this year......

Wang Dongxu said with emotion: "No wonder, no wonder. I am in my fifties this year, and my highest education is only in junior high school. As for geography, I didn't study ......."

Tang Chen knew that he had said the wrong thing before, so he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry Master Wang, I didn't think that you didn't learn this modern geography knowledge......

"What's this!" Wang Dongxu said with a hearty smile, "When we were children, we didn't have such a good opportunity to study now, and it would be good to be able to study until junior high school!"

Zhang Yuanfu also sighed and said: "Yes, I have only been in a private school for a few days. Before liberation, being able to have a full meal was already considered a solid home. Those who can read are all landlords and old wealth!"

Tang Chen saw that they sighed about the times, and he couldn't make a sound, so he could only listen silently.

Fortunately, Wang Dongxu pulled the topic back again: "Master Tang, since you said that the river is turbulent, but what do I think, it's just flowing faster?"

Tang Chen said: "It's just a little faster, it's not the water of love." Master Wang, think about it, ordinary mountain streams have flowed to the plains, where can they flow so fast?"

Wang Dongxu's eyes lit up: "Yes, this is indeed a bit of a problem! But the water flows fast, so it seems clear." Flowing water is not rotten, and the hub is not beetle!"

"It's not like that!"

Tang Chen shook his head vigorously and said, "Whether the water is affectionate or not depends not only on whether it is tortuous and angry, but more importantly, it also depends on its water quality and urgency. The river is winding and clear, but have you noticed that it is too rapid? It is not like an ordinary mountain village stream, shallow and gurgling, and it looks as if it is still on the surface. ”

Zhang Yuanfu was stunned: "Isn't it bad to be still? Master Wang has said before that water must flow before it can be alive!"

"It looks still, but it's not motionless!" Tang Chen explained with a smile, "If the water flow is too fast, and the anger is taken away, how can it be said that it is sentient water! From the theory of feng shui, the attributes of water are yin, soft, flat, quiet, slow, bending, bending, and stopping, which are the expression of its true nature, and belong to the sentient water." On the contrary, the water is too urgent, rushing, roaring, running straight, reversing the bow, and shooting holes, just like the anger of the lion in the east of the river, it is ruthless water. ”

Wang Dongxu also nodded approvingly, and said, "Master Tang is really careful, I am really convinced!"

Tang Chen hurriedly said: "Where, where, it just happened to be ......"

"Once is a coincidence, twice can also be said to be a coincidence, but one after another, that is strength. Master Tang, as an elder in age, I want to remind you that being a feng shui master should be a little arrogant. If you have the ability, you should let others know!" Wang Dongxu said earnestly.

Tang Chen was stunned for a moment, thinking carefully about his past, he was indeed too modest. "Master Wang, I've been taught!"

Seeing that Tang Chen was still a fledgling, Zhang Yuanfu was very emotional. What kind of master can teach such a guy with extraordinary eyesight?

Wang Dongxu looked at the river water carefully, and even carefully came to the river, picked up a handful of water, put it to his nose and smelled it.

Zhang Yuanfu looked at it with novelty and asked on the shore, "Master Wang, what are you doing here?"

Tang Chen explained with a smile: "Master Wang is tasting water from Xiangtu. ”

"Xiangtu tastes water?"

Zhang Yuanfu was stunned for a moment, "What does this mean?"

Tang Chen said without thinking: "The so-called taste of water in the land is going back to the Spring and Autumn Period of the pre-Qin period. In the "Wu Yue Spring and Autumn Period", it is recorded: "Zixu is to make the soil taste water, like heaven and law, build a big city, and return forty-seven miles around. Eight gates of land, eight gates of heaven and eight gates of water, eight gates of law, eight congs of law'. 'Tasting water in the soil' is to understand the soil quality and water conditions, and 'like heaven and law' refers to observing the heavens and looking at feng shui, which is Wu Zixu's outline for the construction of the city. Wu Zixu built Lu City, which is now Suzhou City. More than 2,500 years ago, Wu Zixu "tasted the water from the soil", carefully selected the city site, designed the urban water system with ingenuity, built this unique famous city, and cared for the people of Suzhou for 2,500 years. As the saying goes, there is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below. Suzhou City is almost insulated from all natural disasters, there are no earthquakes, droughts and floods, and only typhoon days can cause a little harm to Suzhou City, which is inseparable from Wu Zixu's choice of place to build the city. Of course, if the Yangtze River floods, Suzhou City, as a downstream city, should not be spared. This is due to the general environment, but it is not that Feng Shui is not working......"

After a pause, Tang Chen continued: "Water tasting method, as you said, testing water quality. The water flavor is pure, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the water taste is astringent and bitter, and the deep turbid smell is unlucky. As for the phase soil method, it is to use a special scale to weigh it. A bucket of soil. Six or seven catties are fierce, and eight or nine catties are auspicious. More than ten catties is good luck. The reason why we want to taste the water is mainly because Feng Shui believes that all stones should be delicate and chiseled, the soil should be solid and difficult to hoe, and the stones should be dry and loose. Water is the source of life, without water there is no man, and auspicious land cannot be without water. That is to say, the ancient method of tasting water in the soil. It is equivalent to a modern geological and hydrological report. As early as more than 2,000 years ago, the ancients had consciously carried out this kind of 'technological' thing, which shows that at that time, Feng Shui was the most authoritative 'science'!"

Zhang Yuanfu was stunned for a moment, and said, "That means that Master Wang is drinking that water?"

At this time, Wang Dongxu just climbed up the river and said with a wry smile: "Where do I dare to drink this water? Who knows if there are pesticides, fertilizers, and all kinds of sewage in this water...... I still want to live a little longer, I don't want to live so short!"

This made everyone laugh, and Zhang Yuanfu also laughed and said, "Then Master Wang, you just ......"

"I just smelled the water, it is indeed as Master Tang said, this water is not very good, it seems to be clear, but in fact, there is a smell of bleach floating in it. If you guess correctly, there should be many factories upstream......" Wang Dongxu said lightly, his tone was very affirmative.
