Chapter 674: Legends

"Can you see it if you don't learn the arts?" the old man obviously didn't believe it, "Then the other feng shui masters who claim to be comparable to the ancient earth immortals can't see the slightest clue, don't they want to give up their faces here?"

Tang Chen couldn't answer what he said. Tang Chen himself definitely doesn't think so, and it is impossible to think so, Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, how can he say that he is better than others? In this world, a mountain is higher than a mountain, and there are many strange people, just like the old man in front of him who jumped out of nowhere, isn't he also a "strange person"?

Besides, if Tang Chen admits this, then he will become a target in the feng shui world, and everyone will shout and beat him. It is still a trivial matter to say that he is "arrogant and arrogant" and "young and arrogant", but if he is "proud of his talents" and "lacking in temperament", it is tantamount to smashing his job.

You must know that in today's society, feng shui masters are still not on the table, if you want to be blessed to patron you to see feng shui, in addition to strength, the most important thing is reputation. How did your reputation come about? First, the blessed Lord passed it on by word of mouth, and on the other hand, it was seen by your peers and spread your reputation. Of course, the first way is the mainstream, and the second way is only when your strength is far beyond Tongji, and others think that they are inferior, will they recommend you first. If it was Chen Quansheng and Chen Lao, maybe it was possible, Tang Chen was too young to become the person recommended by his peers.

Why?

This involves human nature, to be exact, profit.

The feng shui world respects Chen Lao, firstly, because Chen Lao is indeed superb, and secondly, Chen Lao is already in a semi-retired state, and he will not compete with them for jobs, so it is no problem to push him. Even if he lifted Chen Lao to the sky, according to Chen Lao's age, it was impossible for him to still have the energy to lay out feng shui and go over mountains and mountains to make public opinion on the spot, right? It is precisely because it has nothing to do with their interests that the feng shui world is willing to respect Chen Lao.

But Tang Chen is different, his strength is not weak, and he is still so young, if he becomes famous at a young age, won't he snatch away all the big customers in the future? Presumably no one would be so stupid as to launch competitors to smash their own jobs.

Peers in the feng shui world would not recommend Tang Chen, but if Tang Chen dared to admit that he was better than his peers, it would reach the ears of his peers. I'm sorry, you're probably going to be ruined.

Your peers won't lift you up, but you can still do it if you want to ban you.

Don't think that there is no ban in the feng shui world, even more so than any industry. Once you've committed public outrage, there are few options other than the option of staying away from China. This is still in a society governed by the rule of law, if it was in the past, maybe it would be an extremely dangerous fighting method, not to face one person, but a wheel war, maybe a day there will be dozens of people to challenge, no matter how powerful you are, you will eventually be defeated.

Therefore, Tang Chen definitely didn't dare to admit that he was better than other feng shui masters, so he could only say that he chose to keep his mouth shut.

Zhou Xuanying was very interested in that legend, and when she saw that the old man didn't say it, she was anxious first: "Old man, tell me what that legend is about?"

The old man smiled and said, "This legend has been heard by all the people of Fujian Province. ”

Zhou Xuanying frowned and said, "I'm also from Fujian Province, why don't I know?"

"It's the legend of the Kowloon River, haven't you heard of it?" the old man asked in surprise.

"The legend of the Nine Dragons?" Zhou Xuanying frowned and thought about it, and finally shook her head helplessly, revealing a cute expression of "I really don't know", as if humans and animals were harmless. Only Tang Chen knew that this was just one of Zhou Xuanying's ever-changing temperaments, if anyone thought that this was her "true face" and wanted to take advantage of her, the custody would be knocked out of the head.

"You should have heard of it......" The old man sighed, paused, and then said: "According to legend, in ancient times, there lived a husband and wife on the banks of the Beixi River, and they had a son named 'Genggu'. More drum long thick eyebrows and big eyes, waist round and broad shoulders, all kinds of farm work are very good, raise a taciturn, loyal and stubborn temperament, he has a wife called stalagmite, it is said that stalagmites are more drum house behind the red caryophyllum bush under a freshly unearthed stalagmite. Genggu and stalagmites became married, and gave birth to a boy and a girl in the spring of the second year of marriage, and lived a very happy life.

However, there was no rain for 79 consecutive days in the middle of summer that year. The villagers knelt in the sun and prayed for rain, but as the days passed, everything remained the same. Then one day at noon, the signs of rain finally appeared, but the villagers brought the signs of rain with nine red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, purple, black, and white dragons. As the nine-colored dragon flew south, the dark clouds disappeared, and a yellow silk floated in the air. Huang Aya wrote directly: 'Escort a pair of children and girls to Kowloon Pond every day for Kowloon to use, otherwise the sky will never rain.' ’

In order to save the living people, the villagers had to abandon their children with grief and grief, and each village and household took turns to send a pair of boys and girls to Jiulongtan every day to worship Jiulongtan. But ten days have passed, and there is still no sign of rain. Even more drummed to get rid of the nine dragons, although the stalagmite felt painful when she heard it, but thinking of the villagers being victimized, she still agreed with her husband to go to the people to kill the dragon. The stalagmite took a golden hairpin from the dresser, cut it from the caryophyllus and burned it to ashes, then gave the two things to the drum and taught him how to use it. The next day, he used a basket to pick up a pair of boys and girls, and accompanied by the villagers, he said goodbye to his mother and wife to Jiulongtan. At the third watch, as the water column dozens of zhang high rushed out of the pool, nine giant dragons rose into the air and pounced towards the basket.

He even took out the lime from his bosom - threw it to Kowloon, turned around and picked up the basket and ran back, and in an instant, the eight dragons in Kowloon were blinded by the lime and died on the mountain in southern Fujian. The green dragon dodged quickly, and luckily did not get hurt by the soot, and it burned into a black boulder, but was still killed by the stalagmite.

Since then, according to legend, this green dragon has turned into 'Qinglong Ridge', the dragon's head has become 'Longtou Mountain', and the stalagmites have become 'stalagmite tips', standing majestically on Qinglong Ridge, tall and handsome. People call the place where the drum was burned into stone by fire 'more drum stone', the place where my grandmother died as 'weeping zijian', and the place where the drum is scattered with stone and bamboo ash by the dragon, because the bamboo ash is precipitated, a pool of river water is clear all year round, and people call it 'Wanshiqing'. Therefore, this nine-colored dragon became a great river, and it was called the 'Nine Dragons River'. ”
