The morning sun is rising, the sand sea is bright, the sky is blue like a mirror, and the clouds are gorgeous like colorful clouds.

The mountains are scattered, dependent on each other, the shape of the mountain is like a horse's hoof, but the top of the mountain is as flat as an axe, and the morning sun is sprinkled, like coated rouge.

The helicopter rumbled over, and Yu Huiyin quickly pressed the shutter, eager to put all the beautiful scenery into the camera.

Shu Jing is fascinated by her good-looking appearance: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Beautiful fart?

The cold wind kept pouring into the cabin, and Li Dingan shivered from the cold, wrapping his coat vigorously.

I don't understand the brain circuits of these two women: they are about to freeze into dogs, and they still have the heart to enjoy the scenery?

After the patience was equal to the Huiyin shooting, Li Dingan quickly pulled the hatch and gestured to the driver: back.

The fuselage tilted slightly, and the helicopter turned around and flew west.

It is far from the camp, more than 170 kilometers in a straight line, and it is very close to the city of Xishi, only more than 30 kilometers.

It is also one of the few places in the entire Ximeng that has mountains.

It is a pity that the geographical basis of the Hetu Circle "as an image in the sky and formed in the ground" is not here.

As soon as the hatch was closed, the dry sound was much quieter, and Yu Huiyin was still unfinished, overlooking the mountains through the glass.

"Li Ding'an, why are these mountains red, and the top of the mountain is so flat?"

"Red is due to the weathering of the volcanic rocks deposited and converted into red loam. The top of the mountain is flat...... Mt. Fuji knows, volcanoes are shaped like this. ”

"It's so beautiful...... The place you're looking for, isn't it here? ”

"It's not!" Li Dingan shook his head, "The arrangement is too chaotic, and there are no rules at all." ”

Secondly, it is too far from the ancient city.

"What then?"

What else can I do?

"Keep looking."

As he spoke, the plane flew back to the camp, and when he heard the sound, Deputy Yan Hall, He Anbang and Lu Benzhi left the office.

"How?"

"It's not a mesade!"

He Anbang spread his hands: "But there are no more mountains around here?" ”

Li Ding'an also felt strange: if it was arranged according to the flat terrain of "those who rise and fall are mountains, and those who flow are qi", it would not be Hetu and Luoshu.

On the contrary, if you can use the five elements of Heluo to arrange the formation, there must be mountains. Even if there are no naturally formed mountains, you have to build several man-made ones.

The question is, where is the mountain?

If you can't find the topographical basis of this magic circle, you can't deduce the approximate location of the next magic circle, and you can't collide with Yin Mountain, right?

"Let's go inside!"

Li Dingan entered the office and took off his cotton coat.

Fang Zhijie hurriedly greeted him and handed over the folder: "Teacher Li, take a look!" ”

Li Ding'an swept it slightly: There are quite a lot of ancient river channels, one in the east, one in the west, one in the south, and one in the north, like a "well", enclosing the ancient city in the middle.

But there are still no mountains.

Flip further on, and it's pretty much the same......

Since a week ago, Li Ding'an has arranged for an assistant team to consult the geographical records around the ancient city, spanning from the Han Dynasty to modern times, but there is very little useful information.

There is no way to blame this, because since the Han Dynasty, this is a desert, and even the Xiongnu do not come here to graze, so there is no need to survey the geography at all.

Li Dingan closed the folder and took out his mobile phone again: "Hello Vice Mayor Wei, what do the nearby herdsmen say...... Haven't seen a mountain? Alas, well, trouble! ”

He sighed.

Stuck.

Lu Benzhi thought for a while: "There is no way. ”

"Yes!"

The old dean's eyes lit up: "What! ”

"Try your luck!"

What's that?

Don't talk about the big one, let's just say that the Hun Shan Desert, the east, west, north and south are three or four hundred kilometers, how do you touch it?

He Anbang didn't think it was strange: Li Dingan said that he was trying his luck, but he was certainly not a fool.

Just like when he first came to Inner Mongolia to inspect the kiln site, from top to bottom, including the curator, secretary, himself and Ma Xianming, as well as everyone in the project team, they all felt that he was a fool.

Not to mention a few months, even a few years may not come across a single useful clue.

But the result?

From front to back, it only took Li Ding'an a month to find the kiln site, and no one dared to say that he was lucky......

"There's a basis, right?"

"A little, but not much: I suspect that there must be a mountain, but it is very likely that it has been buried by the sand, just like the ancient city!"

Li Ding'an pointed to the north again, "I want to find it again according to the feng shui pattern of the ancient city, according to the direction of the five elements of the eight trigrams: the north of the five elements is water, where it used to be Chagan Naoer Lake, and the northeast of the eight trigrams belongs to Gen, and that direction happens to be the ancient city mountain, Baogeda Mountain...... So, maybe there's a mountain next to it. ”

Deputy Hall Yan was stunned: "How high can the mountain that can be buried by the wind and sand be?" ”

"Twenty or thirty meters should be there...... Isn't Baogda Mountain only more than 30 meters? ”

Deputy Yan suddenly stopped squeaking: Baogeda Mountain is not high, but this is now, in the past, it was respected as a holy mountain by the surrounding herdsmen.

It is precisely because it is buried nearly half by the sand that it is so short.

If you think about it this way, if there is a hill twenty or thirty meters high nearby, there is a very high possibility that it will be buried by the sand.

"Then look for it, when will you go?"

"Tomorrow, I'll do the math again." Li Ding'an looked at Deputy Yan Hall, "There will be more manpower and instruments needed at that time, and I have to trouble Yan Hall to coordinate!" ”

"No problem."

……

A pillow of red sun, clear clouds and clear sky.

The desert is vast, and off-road and pickup trucks are constantly driving by, and the dust rises and disappears like wriggling earthworms.

Dozens of people were scattered around the lake site, scattered and scattered, like many tiny beetles.

The helicopter kept circling, and Li Dingan poked his neck and searched carefully with a telescope.

After flying back and forth seven or eight times, he sighed and patted the back of the driver's seat: "Go down!" ”

The helicopter stopped on a flat ground, two off-road vehicles drove over, and He Anbang poked his head out: "How is it?" ”

Li Dingan shook his head, meaning that he didn't find it.

"How's it going to be?"

He Anbang also shook his head: "In addition to sand, it is still sand." ”

What the hell?

"Is it possible that it's not in this piece?"

No way.

Adapting to local conditions...... If you want to be too far away, what else is there to talk about "forming on the ground"?

"Director Xiao, let everyone rest and rest!" Li Dingan pinched the walkie-talkie and announced, and opened the door of the rear car, "I'll think about it again." ”

He Anbang sighed: It means that there is no need to probe, and probe is also a white detective?

After thinking about it, he also got out of the car.

Li Ding'an took out the computer and told Shu Jinghao: "Take out all the aerial maps, satellite maps, and paleogeographic maps around the ancient city!" ”

Yu Huiyin also came to help, and in a few minutes, seven or eight drawings were pasted on the hood of the off-road vehicle, and then pressed with magnets.

Li Ding'an looked at it for a while, changed the order back and forth, adjusted it once, and then picked up the pen to record it. From time to time, I will pick up the compass and compare it, and chant while turning.

He Anbang was dazzled: "What are you looking for?" ”

"Directions!" Li Ding'an's subordinates kept going, "Old God Stick...... Yao Yuzhong said: The magic circle of the main peak of Qinglong Mountain is anti-yin and yang, the top five elements, and inverted gossip, so I want to see if this is also a formation arranged according to this logic. ”

"Didn't you say that it was a smoke bomb set off by Yao Yuzhong?"

"That's right, it's true that the old god is foolish, but it's not unreasonable!"

Li Ding'an fiddled for a while, and then held his chin, "But this city is the trend of 'Xinren meeting and gathering Chen'...... It stands to reason that another feng shui array is based on the pattern of yin and yang? ”

Then you fiddled and analyzed for a long time, isn't it all useless?

He Anbang pointed to the aerial photograph of the ancient city: "Is it still in this city?" ”

"Impossible!" Li Ding'an took the star map of Luoshu, and pointed to the red dot on the map of the ancient city, "Look, is it exactly the same?" ”

A few heads came together: Vena has forty-five stars, and the red dots in the map of the ancient city are also forty-five, and the directions are exactly the same.

And each red dot represents a magic weapon similar to the "dragon driving pile", no more, no less, forty-five places, all have been excavated.

"It means that this corresponds to Luoshu, and Hetu is in other places?"

"Yes!"

"Could it be an imperial city too?" He Anbang had a whim, "The city that is exactly the same as the ancient city is in the Hunshan Desert, and it is also buried in the sand?" ”

"Haha......"

Do you dare to think more than I do?

Theoretically feasible: gathering dragons to attract qi is related to the prosperity and sorrow of the dynasty, and it is not surprising that the battle is larger.

But in fact, it is not very likely: according to the estimation of the dating time of several unearthed architectural relics, the magic circle of the main peak of Qinglong Mountain is the earliest, followed by Funiu Mountain, and the difference between the two places is about one to two years.

It's a little later here, about two years later than Funiu Mountain, and how long does it take to build a capital as big as the ancient city of Hunshan?

Ten years at the least, twenty or thirty years at most: because this is not an ordinary city, just find a place to build it, and still have to "go up to the heavens, and go down to the geography"...... Just like the Forbidden City, even if it is man-made, it must create a corresponding feng shui pattern.

But according to the speed of change of the throne of the Yuan Dynasty, in twenty years, the emperor has changed seven or eight generations. Once a son of heaven and a courtier, combined with the economic situation of the Yuan Dynasty, let alone building a city, can the foundation be built?

"It is impossible to build a city, but it is possible to build a few mountains according to the feng shui pattern of the imperial city."

"According to the feng shui pattern of the imperial city?" Shu Jinghao tilted her head and thought hard, "Hun Shan Ancient City is Tang City, corresponding to Luo Shu...... Will the feng shui bureau corresponding to the river map be in line with Chang'an Daming Palace or Luoyang Shenjing? ”

"The paper was not written in vain, and it has grown a lot?" Li Dingan gave a thumbs up, "I thought the same way before, but I didn't find it?" ”

"You were looking for Chagan Lake before...... Yu Huiyin glanced at the map: "But is it possible...... Nothing to do with this lake? ”

"The Book of Burial": Qi is the mother of water, there is gas and water...... "Suspicious Dragon Sutra": Go to Pingyang and don't ask for traces, but look at the water around the real dragon...... There are no mountains, but if there is no water, you can't gather dragon veins! ”

"There's water?" Yu Huiyin pointed to the paleogeographical map around the ancient city, "In addition to Chagan Lake, weren't there many rivers here before?" ”

A lot of rivers?

Li Ding'an thought about it and picked up the map: the Xilin River goes around the city, and leads out four tributaries, one in the east, one in the west, one in the south, and one in the north, enclosing the ancient city in the middle.

This is a moat, but there must be in any big city, but most of them are in the shape of "mouth", like this crosses each other, forming the word "well", it seems that there are not many.

If you don't look at it as a moat, it's a feng shui pattern...... Well?

Li Ding'an was stunned for a moment: "Shu Jinghao, what did you say before?" ”

"Huh? I said, the pattern of the ancient city corresponds to Luoshu, and the feng shui bureau corresponding to the river map should be in line with Daming Palace or Luoyang Shenjing? ”

Alas...... Doesn't it have anything to do with this lake?

Li Ding'an slapped the hood excitedly, hugged Yu Huiyin's face and kissed it.

Then subconsciously, the two hands stretched out to the side again...... In an instant, He Anbang's eyes straightened.

Suddenly, Li Dingan came back to his senses suddenly, his hand turned a corner, and he rubbed Shu Jing's head.

"Thank you...... Thank you...... If you hadn't reminded me, I'd have been stuck at a dead end! ”

I said that I couldn't find it alive or dead, and it turned out that I had positioned the starting coordinates wrong......

"It's not about the lake, it's about the four rivers...... You see, the orientation of these four rivers is not like the Yi River, the Luo River, the Jian River, and the Qianhe River......"

"Yi River, Luo River...... Luoyang? ”

"Yes!" Li Ding'an slapped his palm, "Found it: the river map corresponds to the feng shui pattern of Luoyang City in the Tang Dynasty: the rivers and mountains are controlled, and the shape is the world!" (End of chapter)
