The old class leader's expression suddenly became extremely strange. He looked at Zhao Qi in surprise, as if to make sure he was not joking.
After a while, the old class leader said somewhat unconfidently:
"No one has asked to sing Nuo opera for many years. Are you sure you want to sing?"
"That's right!"
Zhao Qi nodded:
"It must be a Nuo opera. I know that the ghost opera was a Nuo opera wizard a long time ago.
If there is anyone who can sing Nuo opera in this era, it is only people in your profession.
I wonder if the old leader can take on this job, and whether he can sing in this show? "
The old class leader nodded excitedly, with a confident look on his face, and even his voice trembled slightly:
"Of course I can sing. This treasure at the bottom of the box is passed down from our ancestors.
We thought that life would not bring us death, so we had to take this unique skill with us to the grave.
Since the customer has spoken today, there is no reason not to agree! "
"Refreshingly, it's settled then!"
The old team leader quickly called a few old guys to come to the side and conveyed to them the conversation he had just had with Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi also came to Lake and others and said in a deep voice:
"We're almost ready. The next thing to do is to find a geomantic treasure land to use as a place to become a god."
When it came to Feng Shui, Cai An naturally became interested. He pointed at the compass that Zhao Zhao Qili had been holding and said:
"Mr. Zhao, is this the three-yuan compass you are holding in your hand?
As far as I know, the three-in-one compass is more suitable for exploring Feng Shui.
The Sanhepan is also called Yang Gongpan. There are three layers of twenty-four mountains on the pan. It is a comprehensive pan that combines modern Feng Shui situation and Li Qi.
I don't understand why you chose to use a three-yuan disk? "
Cai An is indeed an expert, and the professional terms he speaks make Lake and others next to him confused.
Zhao Qi looked at Cai An with a kind of praise in his eyes. Although it was just a few words, it fully demonstrated Cai An's attainments in Feng Shui.
However, Zhao Qi did not agree with Cai An's point of view. With a flick of his wrist, the magnetic needle in the three yuan disk began to rotate crazily. Then Zhao Qi looked up at the sky above his head and said slowly:
"The three-in-one disk is indeed miraculous in exploring the terrain and feng shui, but the three-in-one disk matches the twenty-four mountains with the stars. Although it is more complicated, it is also more comprehensive.
The triad chart is also called the twenty-four day astrolabe. This compass can easily determine the eight major terrains. "
While talking, Zhao Qi looked down at the compass, and then walked in a direction. Seeing this, the others followed him in confusion.
"On the east side is the Eight Warriors, with the Yin Quan auspicious star shining high, and on the south side is the Taiyin, with the emperor's seat echoing it from a distance.
It shows that there is a Feng Shui treasure cave hidden in this mountain, just below the Luanjia star. This is a star that does not show good and bad luck, and is also a star of harmony. "
After passing through a forest, Zhao Qi stopped, observed for a moment, and nodded:
"This is it!"
Lin Feng, who had a better relationship with Cai An, lowered his voice and asked next to Cai An:
"Professor Cai, is everything Zhao Qi said true?"
Cai An also carefully observed his surroundings at this time. After a moment, a bit of surprise appeared on his face:
"It's really like that. Look at the mountains in the distance echoing one after another, like a green dragon sitting in control.
Surrounded by three mountains and connected by water from the north, it is an important Feng Shui location.
But Zhao Qi's Feng Shui attainments are obviously better than mine, and it is extremely difficult to locate Feng Shui through the Three Yuan Pan.
What's more, it's only evening now, and the stars in the sky are not obvious.
Unless one can accurately know the positions of the 24-day stars and deduce the changes in their movements at different times, the Feng Shui place cannot be defined so easily. "
Cai An looked at Zhao Qi's figure in shock. It was hard to imagine how such a young person could have such profound and unpredictable attainments in Feng Shui knowledge.
Since ancient times, every dynasty has had experts who specialize in observing the sky to predict the fate of the country.
In the Qin and Han Dynasties, there was the Taishi Ling in charge of the celestial calendar, and in the early Tang Dynasty, there was the Taishi Bureau, which was later changed to the Tiantai.
During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, there was the Sitianjian, which was a parallel institution with the Taishi Bureau and Taishi Yuan.
There is a huge difference between celestial feng shui and ordinary feng shui. It not only requires the user to be proficient in feng shui and terrain, but also requires a detailed understanding of the distribution of celestial phenomena and the calculation of the laws of celestial changes.
It's no wonder why Cai An is so surprised. After all, such an ability is too unexpected for a young man in his twenties.
After confirming the location of the god, Zhao Qi returned to the place in person, brought the fox demon over, and once again made a prison for it. After being trapped there, he began to make other preparations.
First, he directed the agents and soldiers to cut down some trees from the forest and build a small altar.
The square dimensions of the shrine must be accurate to the millimeter.
Secondly, place an offering table directly in front of the altar. There is an incense burner in the middle of the table and three bowls of liquid next to it.
The three red liquids are black dog blood, rooster blood, and strong liquor.
Just from this point, it is not difficult to see that Zhao Qi is carrying out the ceremony in conjunction with Nuo opera.
Under Zhao Qi's command, various colored silks and satins were tied on both sides of the simple altar. The different colors were intertwined, making the altar look indescribably weird.
All this is because of Nuo opera, which is not an ordinary opera. It originated from the Fangxiang-style exorcism ceremony in the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
Fang Xiangshi was a god commonly believed in by the people at that time, and he was a god who could dispel diseases and ward off evil spirits.
His palms are covered with bear skin, his eyes are golden, and he wears black clothes and red clothes. He holds an arm and a shield to cure the country's diseases.
During the funeral, Fang Xiangshi drove Fangliang away. The ceremony performed by Fang Xiangshi in the palace was called Da Nuo. Even in the Tang Dynasty, it became one of the military rituals.
Later, after Jiang Ziya became a god, there were all kinds of gods that are now known to people in the world.
Therefore, Fang Xiangshi's Nuo ceremony is the earliest ceremony in history that can connect the sky and the earth.
Nuo opera evolved from Nuo rituals.
This is why Zhao Qihui chose to use Nuo opera as the beginning of the leading ceremony.
He wanted to inform the heaven and earth, and in response to the destiny of heaven, he would ask for the list of gods and canonize the fox demon into a god.
Of course, it is not necessary to use this ceremony every time when the ceremony of conferring gods will be held in the future. This will be determined according to the feng shui of the place, the objects used to confer gods, and ancient legends.
The 'Nuo opera' used in this conferring ceremony is known as ghost opera among the people, mainly because of the weird body movements, and the various masks are mostly related to religious ghosts and gods.
Visually, there is always a kind of psychological pressure on people.
Nuo opera has almost been lost in modern times, but the status of Nuo opera in ancient times was no less than that of Peking Opera in modern times.
There is a saying that has always been circulated among the people:
Wearing a Nuo opera mask, one can look directly at the gods!
