Chapter 2 The gentleman tells the story of the future
The young man followed the swirling water of this heavenly pond and went to Pengcheng quickly, and overnight, he crossed 2,500 miles from Changbai Mountain to Pengcheng, and also caught the first ray of sunlight in Pengcheng.
Pengcheng, that is, Xuzhou, is one of the nine states in China, is the hometown of the famous emperors, and the culture of the two Han Dynasty is originating here. The purple qi changed the Dinghua Dragon, pointing here, it was quite compatible, and the young man did not have the slightest doubt.
The young man fell in a dark place in the city with the water of Tianchi, and came out of the dark place is a park, it is early in the morning, and there are a lot of people who practice in the park: there is a burst of string orchestra music in the distance, and there is a sound of life and ugliness in the near distance, some people shake the empty bamboo and play the sword, and some people play chess and talk about it.
This place is very suitable for the young man's mind, he came to Xuzhou according to the hexagram, there is no more accurate information, purple gas Ding Hua dragon, it is necessary for him to explore the dragon-related places in Xuzhou one by one, and most of the people in this park are old, they must know a lot of things, maybe the young man can find some clues about the dragon from their small talk.
The young man also pretended to be here for morning exercises, lazy pace, and slowly approached a gazebo, this pavilion is an octagonal gazebo, between the pillars one foot above the ground, erected stone bars, forming a long stone bench, now the stone bench is full of people, outside the pavilion there are people leaning on the pillars, listening carefully to the sound in the pavilion.
The pavilion was not noisy, only one person was talking, and the rest of the people listened quietly and attentively. When the young man came to the pavilion, he saw at a glance that the person who was speaking at this time was a kind old man, who was in good spirits, but his eyes were full of sighs.
The young man listened carefully to the old man's words, and realized that the reason for this sigh coincided with his purpose of coming to Xuzhou, and they were all related to the same thing, which was the totem of the country - the dragon.
What the old man said was the dragon vein of Xuzhou. Xuzhou is known as the "eternal flying dragon land", there have been many emperors here, which is not unrelated to the dragon vein here, and according to research, the dragon vein is in the Yunlong Mountain in Xuzhou, such a feng shui treasure land, naturally talked about by many feng shui masters.
But because of this, Xuzhou Yunlongshan attracted the attention of Liu Bowen in the early Ming Dynasty, he found that Yunlongguo had dragon veins after investigation, and was very surprised, and reported it to the emperor, and the emperor naturally let him break it in order to ensure the stability of the Zhu family.
Liu Bowen is not shallow, and the matter of breaking the dragon vein is caught. He drilled a deep well on the dragon's head in the first section of Yunlong Mountain, which was the dragon's head, and sinked the dragon's brain. Later, two pavilions were built on the left and right sides of the northern halfway of the mountainside and covered with lombok. In this way, it will be difficult for the dragon in the dragon vein to live, and the dragon vein will be broken.
The old man lamented that it was Xuzhou's good feng shui that was broken, otherwise the development of Xuzhou would have been more brilliant.
This piece of news is not useless to the young man, although it can't let him find the dragon immediately, but it also allows him to eliminate a place to go, the huge Xuzhou he wants to find all by himself, it takes a lot of effort, and now he excludes a place, you can save this energy.
The young man left the park and walked out of the city, under the urban monster made of steel and concrete, how could there be a dragon lurking, the dragon must be hidden in the mountains and rivers.
When the young man went to the east of Xuzhou, he saw the hilly and mountainous areas, with low hills and continuous hills, and Yishui, Shushui and Luoma Lake. Between the ups and downs of the hills, like a dragon bowing its back, under the vastness of Lishui, like a dragon's clear eyes, the young man feels like a dragon everywhere, he calls the dragon with an ancient sound that is eternal, and the mountains and rivers echo his voice leisurely, but there is no response from the dragon.
When the young man looked up at the sky in frustration, he found that tomorrow was hanging high, and the sun was dazzling, and it was already noon. The young man restrained his mood and returned to Xuzhou City and sat in a rather simple and elegant restaurant.
It is said that it is a restaurant, but it is more like a teahouse, and there is a stage in the hall, a table on the stage, a folding fan on the table, and a ruler, and it is obvious that there is a gentleman on it to tell a story. The audience was full of guests, there were only some snacks and fruits on the table, and everyone had a cup of tea, and sure enough, most of them came to taste tea and listen to books.
And there are not many people like the young man who really come in to eat, and the waiter reacts a little surprised when he orders. He found a corner seat and sat far away from the crowd, not wanting the sound of his own meal to disturb the guests.
At the same time as the waiter brought the food, there was also a gentleman in a coat on the stage, this gentleman looked like he was in his forties, smiling, deep-eyed, and looked quite wise.
The gentleman stood behind the table and slapped the ruler with a "snap". In response to the sound, it was the sound of the young man eating the first bite of noodles, "sucking and yoping".
This sound should have been completely drowned out by the sound of the ruler, but the gentleman on the stage was stunned, glanced at the audience for a week, and finally fixed his eyes on the young man eating noodles in the corner, this gentleman's eyes lit up, and he nodded secretly.
"In the last book, we talked about: Intercepting the Three Heavens of the Yellow River Formation, Taishang Laojun broke the formation, wrapped the clouds with the Qiankun diagram, and ordered the Yellow Turban wrestlers to press the clouds under the Qilin Cliff. ”
When the young man heard this, it turned out that this gentleman was talking about "Fengshen Bang", and he had already read it, so he lost interest in this gentleman's book and concentrated on eating.
The gentleman continued, "This time, we won't talk about it later, just talk about this yellow turban wrestler, according to the popular saying, let's do a side story." ”
Speaking of this, the audience all smiled, and the ears of the young man were laughing, and he once again focused his attention on the stage.
Mr. said: "The Yellow Turban Lux has appeared a lot in this "Fengshen List", and the first appearance was when Yin Hong, the son of the King of Zhou, Yin Hong, was about to be killed by the King of Zhou, Guang Chengzi and Red Sperm traveled all over the world, and here they calculated that the lives of the two princes should not be extinguished, and Guang Chengzi called out the Yellow Turban Lux and saved the two princes.
Since then, the Yellow Turban Lux has appeared countless times, but their status has never been introduced. What are the characteristics of this group of people? The description of them is not in this book, but in "Water Margin", it is said that their faces are like red jade and their beards are like soap velvet. It seems to have a figure, and there are thousands of catties of strength in both vertical and horizontal directions. On the side of the yellow scarf, the golden ring shines with the sun, and in the middle of the embroidered jacket, the iron armor frost spreads the moon shadow. He often protects the Dharma in front of the altar and subdues demons every time he comes to the world.
"Such some people, who are called by many immortals, are the bodyguards of the typical immortal family, this you say that he is a minion, but you look at this description, the yellow scarf has a golden ring on the sun, which shows that people's cultivation is not weak, and if he can be a bodyguard for the great immortal, he is not much worse than the great immortal, otherwise what would people hire him for?!
"Such a group of people are immortals with no talent and no status. Since they are immortals, their lifespan is so long, so people like them who do not have five insurances and one housing fund, and their reemployment after retirement is very problematic. ”
"Wow", there was another burst of laughter in the audience, and the young man felt a little interesting when he heard it at this time, so he simply stopped his chopsticks and waited for the following.
The gentleman waited until the laughter fell, and continued: "The Yellow Turban Lux I am talking about is a Yellow Turban Lux who has been quite successful in re-employment after retirement, his surname is Zhang, let's call him Zhang Lux. Zhang Lishi is different from other yellow turban wrestlers, his face is thin, his body looks very weak, and he ...... "Mr. patted his chest," just like me. ”
"Look at me, I said that I have the strength of a thousand jun, you must not believe it, and I don't believe it either. And this tension is the same as mine, he has been questioned a lot, so he retired early, and there is not much to prove his strength. But then one thing, he proved his strength. ”
The gentleman paused, "In the Heavenly Huoyun Cave there are the Three Emperors, and outside the Huoyun Cave, there is a treasure, which is a musical instrument invented by Fu Xi, the head of the Three Emperors, named Se, a fifty-stringed Se. In order to prove his strength, this tension lair quietly came to the outside of the Huoyun Cave, plucked the strings, and plucked the ninth string of this string, and heard a 'boom', and this string was plucked.
The sound of the string breaking resounded through the Three Realms, the heavens turned and the stars shifted, the rivers on the earth flowed against the current, and the ghosts of the underworld cried. This sound alarmed the three emperors in the cave, and when they came out to look, they saw that this tension wrestler had plucked the ninth string, and he himself was stunned.
Nearly a hundred years later, this wrestler woke up, and the Three Emperors told him, you have proved the strength, but you have also broken through the catastrophe, this is not an ordinary Se, it is a Se made of Fuxi Heaven and Earth Avenue, and the fifty strings on the Se represent the fifty of the avenue.
"The Book of Changes clouds: 'The avenue is fifty, the heavens are forty-nine, and people escape one of them.'" Now a string is broken, which is in line with the "Book of Changes" people to escape one of the sayings, especially the broken string is the ninth string, nine is the number of poles, this string breaks, indicating that it is a great calamity that endangers the Three Realms. The Three Emperors said to Zhang Lishi: 'To untie the bell, you must tie the bell', you go down to earth, this matter has nothing to do with us, you can solve it yourself!
But they didn't care about it completely, but gave this tension a string, asked him to complete the string, and then let him carry this string to the world, which one can break this string again, which one is the one who should be robbed, as long as he helps him wholeheartedly, this catastrophe can be resolved.
So, this Zhang Lux took off his immortal status, carried Se on his back, went down to the world, and lived on a high mountain. He lives on the shady side of the mountain, so he prevents his past colleagues from coming to him, so why are he afraid that they will find him? Because although he has caused a great disaster, this reemployment is too successful, and he has caused trouble but shouldered a major matter related to the Three Realms, so the Three Realms have all asked him to solve the matter as soon as possible.
So the Three Realms all paid him food, and that year's income was very considerable! But this matter completely depends on fate, and if someone is not fated, then he can't solve it, and now, the Three Emperors suddenly spoke, saying that the person who should be robbed has appeared, and Zhang Lishi has finally had something to do after a thousand years. ”
