The Taoist priest with a grimace pointed at the mountains and said: "There are countless high mountains in the land of China, and there are quite a few that can be called dragon veins because of their shape and energy. These dragon veins can be divided into many types according to their size and shape, and the one in front of you is called 'Jie Yao'" dragon'."
Most of the waist-stealing dragons are only more than ten miles long, so they are not considered a trend in Feng Shui. However, if they are famous, the head of the waist-robbering dragon must be facing the waist of another dragon vein, like a dagger against the waist. It is very common. Invading dragon power.
However, the Robbery Waist Dragon is not a fierce dragon. For the area shaded by this dragon vein, it is a real auspicious vein. Placing a tomb in the precious eye on the leg can make the descendants of the tomb owner become high-ranking officials and make a lot of money. This is in Feng Shui. There is also a saying called "Dragon Claw Plate Beads, the more they are plated, the more expensive they become."
"It sounds like a Kuandouzi (Safe Tomb). How does it have anything to do with the victory game?" He Siniang asked.
"The Weaning Bureau does not refer to the tomb, but the Protector of the Nation Panlong Temple. This temple was built strangely, and it seems to be the Weaning Bureau that changed the feng shui."
To put it simply, the victory-weary game is to use certain means to change the original Feng Shui situation to achieve the goal sought by the changer. For example, the waist-stealing dragon in front of you has its head pointed directly at the hinterland of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Although the situation is not fierce, But it's like it's stuck in the throat. How can you feel at ease if you don't pull it out? Therefore, the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty chose to build a temple on the dragon's leg. He used the merciful and compassionate Yang Fire of Buddhism to suppress the murderous aura of the waist dragon, making the dragon's legs completely unable to draw strength. .
He Siniang nodded as if she understood, and then said: "So this is what I mean by hating the victory, but the time and effort to build a temple is a bit unnecessary. I really want to destroy this dragon vein and destroy the ancient tomb. Wouldn't it be better to destroy it and turn it into a legless dragon?"
"This brings us back to the issue we were talking about in Xiangyang. Perhaps the person buried in the tomb was really important to the Northern Wei Dynasty, so they went to great lengths to build a temple, which not only changed the situation of robbing the waist dragon, but also did not It will destroy the original feng shui of the ancient tomb."
"Yes, this explanation can basically explain it. Then we should find a way to determine the exact location of the ancient tomb, right?"
"This tomb is in this mountain." The grim-faced Taoist priest compared the steep slope behind Panlong Temple to protect the country and said: "Looking at the nature of the mountains alone, burying an emperor would be a bit difficult, but burying a prince and his ilk is more than enough. Well, the size of this tomb cannot be determined yet, but the location is quite different, and the door of the tomb should be in the backyard of Huguo Panlong Temple."
After the grim-faced Taoist priest finished speaking, the three of them couldn't help but turn their attention to the Protector Panlong Temple at the foot of the mountain. From here, you can overlook the layout of the entire temple. There are nine courtyards in the temple. In addition to the six in the front that the three of them walked through, there are three more in the backyard. Arranged in a Zigzag pattern, the first two buildings should be the prison courtyard and the abbot's courtyard, while the lonely one at the back immediately attracted the attention of the three people.
The courtyard at the back is very large. Nearly half of it is hidden in the mountain. The courtyard wall almost reaches halfway up the mountain. There are many stone towers built in the open space in front of the courtyard. There are eight in total. In addition to the east courtyard wall There is also a building that looks like a Buddhist Scripture Pavilion nearby. Apart from this, there is nothing else to see in the entire backyard.
The most eye-catching thing in the backyard are the stone towers. They are not arranged neatly, but are scattered and arranged in a certain order. The three people stood on the top of the mountain and saw the mystery at a glance. Luo Laoqi rushed to say: "This shape is like a house." You know, isn't it just a bucket for measuring meters? Is this the Big Dipper array, right?" After saying that, he felt something was wrong. He pointed his fingers and counted the stone towers again, wondering: "Why are there eight... Big Dipper array? "
The Taoist priest with a grimace squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully for a moment, and then said: "Don't follow that invention. It is true that this is the Big Dipper array, but it is not seven stars, but nine stars."
"Nine stars? Taoist priest, you are even more outrageous. You have one more than the Sa family."
"You're ridiculously tall. Apart from peeking at a woman taking a bath, which one of your tricks is better than a poor Taoist? Didn't you see that there is a stone well opposite the short tower next to the handle?"
Luo Laoqi stretched his neck and looked again: "Hey, it seems really bad, but Taoist priest, don't be humble. You may not be inferior to Sajia when you peek at a woman taking a bath."
"After listening to you two chatting, I don't dare to take a bath anymore." He Siniang interjected: "But what does it mean to have a stone well? It also coincides with the star formation?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace nodded and replied: "This array is called the 'Qimen Nine Star Array'. It is arranged according to the Beidou Star Palace. In addition to the seven stars we can usually see in the Beidou Star Palace, there are also two dark stars, which are called the 'Seven Stars'." The two hidden beings are now known as the Nine Emperors."
The view of the Nine Emperor Stars has been around since ancient times. It originated from the observations of Taishi during the Zhou Dynasty. At that time, Taishi discovered that according to the difference in precession and geographical location, two other hidden stars could be seen in the Big Dipper Palace, one on the left and right of the handle. It is called "Zuo Fu" and the other is "You Bi". Zuo Fu is slightly brighter and Right Bi is very dark. However, it is difficult to see both stars unless it is a special time and place, so there is a saying that "a hidden star is auspicious and a visible one is very valuable". statement.
The two hidden stars of Zuo Fuxing and You Bi, plus the original seven stars of "Ganlang, Jumen, Lucun, Wenqu, Lianzhen, Wuqu and Pojun", formed the Nine Emperors Star, which was spread to the people. Later, a kind of nine-star worship also emerged. From the first to the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar every year, a grand ceremony is held for nine consecutive days. It is called the Nine Emperors Meeting. To this day, it is still popular in places such as Ningyi Yangguang. spread.
The Taoist Priest with a grimace continued: "The layout of the stone towers in the courtyard exactly matches the nine stars of the Big Dipper. The seven tall towers are bright stars and form a rice bucket. The short tower on the left side of the bucket handle is the left auxiliary star, and the stone well on the right is the right star. But it’s hard to say what that stone well is, maybe it’s a dark tower hidden underground, but the overall layout is definitely the Qimen Nine-Star Array.”
"Since the Taoist Master recognizes this array, do you know the secret? Why is such a strange nine-star array built in the backyard of Huguo Panlong Temple?" He Siniang asked.
The Taoist priest with a grimace shook his head and replied: "Pin Dao only knows the appearance of this formation. If he really had the ability to decipher the secrets, he would have gone to the entrance of Faqiu Gate to destroy the place. But it is definitely unusual to set up a tower array near the tomb gate. Ping Tao thinks we It’s better to be more simple, travel lightly at night, and sneak in to see for yourself.”
"Okay, there's nothing to see around here anyway, let's go back to Xuanhu City and discuss it in detail when we get to the inn."
The three of them came down from the top of the mountain and returned to the Xuanhu City Inn. After lunch, they went back to the room to finalize their plans for the evening. The Taoist Priest with a grimace asked Luo Laoqi to take care of him outside the temple, and he and He Siniang entered the temple together. Step on the plate, so that if there is danger, the two of them can escape in time with their Qinggong skills. Luo Laoqi is better at fighting, so it is most suitable to stay outside and keep an eye on them.
After hearing this, Luo Laoqi curled his lips and said: "Stalking is a position prepared for cowards. What is the most suitable position for the Sa family? Just say you are afraid that the Sa family will delay things."
"Why do you have to tell me so plainly? You don't have any awareness yourself. Actions at night require caution and meticulousness. You have been making noises all day. If I let you go in, I am afraid that the abbot will scare you into death."
"Hey! If you don't go in, you won't go in. Sajia is too lazy to stretch his body. Then he will find a place to lie down under a tree, just in time to cuddle up."
"How can you sleep with your damn eyes on you? With your snoring, the whole temple has become energetic. At night, you go to the mountainside to practice cat hunting, polish your moves, and call us immediately if there is an emergency. "
"I know, I know, Sajia just talked about it, it scared you. Are you okay now? It's okay. Sajia went to bed."
"Go to sleep! Go to sleep to avoid being sleepy again at night. Si Niang, if you have nothing to do, you can sleep for a while. We have to stay up until night before we can move."
"You guys go to sleep. I'm not sleepy. Besides, Lao Qi started snoring in the blink of an eye. I can't sleep even if I want to."
The Taoist priest with a grimace turned his head and looked at Luo Laoqi. This guy was still talking just now, but now he has fallen asleep on the pillow. The three of them came to Xuanhu City this time. Because the guest rooms in the city were very nervous, they only wanted one. Living in a big room together, as long as he sleeps after Luo Laoqi, there is no chance of falling asleep. The Taoist priest with a grimace smiled helplessly and said: "It seems that the poor Taoist can't sleep anymore, so just lie down for a while to recuperate." .”
The two of them chatted for a long time while snoring, and finally managed to sleep for half an hour. After getting up in the evening, the three of them went to the lobby to have dinner, and then left before the city gate was closed. Go to Xuanhu City to protect the country Panlong Temple.
Arriving near Panlong Temple to protect the country, the three of them found a place halfway up the mountain to stay up till the end of the day. Buddhism pays attention to the morning bells and evening drums, the sound of sutras and chants, the green lanterns and yellow scrolls, and the practice of precepts, concentration and wisdom. They must be observed in daily life and practice. According to the work and rest schedule, the time to fall asleep at night is called Haishi, which is called "the great tranquility" in Buddhism. Only after this time is it safest to enter the temple.
The grim-faced Taoist priest saw that the lights in all the meditation rooms in the temple were out. He solemnly warned Luo Laoqi again, and then he and He Siniang hurried down the hillside to the east wall of Panlong Temple to protect the country.
The outer wall of Panlong Temple to protect the country is very high, at least three to four feet, but it is nothing to Taoist Priest He and Siniang. They took out the Eagle Lock and hooked it to the green tiles on the top of the wall. Climbing up the high wall, I stood on the top of the wall and looked around the courtyard under the bright moon and bright stars. I saw that the surroundings were as quiet as water, and not even a sound of insects could be heard in the entire backyard.
He Siniang raised her eyebrows at the grim-faced Taoist priest, wanting to ask if he could enter the courtyard. Who knew that the grim-faced Taoist priest thought He Siniang was ogling him, and almost fell off the wall when he got excited, and quickly stabilized his body and made a downward gesture. Signing to wait, he was worried that there would be monks on duty at night and wanted to observe for a while before taking action.
The grim-faced Taoist priest scanned the area with his eyes wide open. When he felt that there was no danger, he called He Siniang to take action. The two quickly climbed over the wall into the courtyard, and then carefully moved to the north of the courtyard close to the wall. The main purpose of their trip was to find The entrance to the underground palace is in the north of the courtyard, close to the back mountain. If there is an underground palace, the entrance is most likely to appear there. As for the Qimen Nine Star Array in the courtyard, neither of them understood the mystery of it, so they decided to leave it for last. Probe.
