If you want to explore the Nine Palaces, you must first look for the Seven Passes and Two Points, which are corresponding to each other.
The seven points and two points refer to the points on the ground corresponding to the nine stars of the Big Dipper.
There are actually nine stars in the Big Dipper. According to the "General Star Theory" in Volume 24 of "Yunji Qizhu", there are nine stars in the Big Dipper, seven appearing and two hidden.
Among the seven appearances, the first day's pivot star shows the Yang Ming Tan Lang star Lord, the second day the Xuan star Jumen star Lord, the third day Ji star shows the real person Lucun star Lord, the fourth day Quan star shows the Xuan Ming Wen Qu star Lord, and the fourth day Quan star shows the Xuan Ming Wen Qu star Lord. The five jade and heng stars show the Danyuan Lianzhen star, the sixth Kaiyang star shows the North Pole Wuqu star, and the seventh shaking light star shows the Tianguan Pojun star.
The seven stars are called the Seven Emperors of the Nine Emperor Stars, and they are the Big Dipper that we usually see.
The second hermit, the eighth hole star is also called the auxiliary star, which is the star of the Heavenly Lord and the Jade Emperor. The Ninth Yin Yuan Star is also called Bi Star, which is called the Taichang True Star. The two stars are between the Kaiyang star and the Yaoguang star, with the left assisting and the right assisting.
The points on the ground corresponding to the Big Dipper are called the Seven Passes, namely Yunken Pass, Shangxuan Pass, Zichen Pass, Shangyang Pass, Tianyang Pass, Yusu Pass and Taiyou Pass.
The points corresponding to the Auxiliary Star and the Bute Star are hidden. If it were not the ultimate place, these two points would not appear on the ground, so they are called acupoints.
Auxiliary star is opposite to Yu point, and Bi star is opposite to He point. Under normal circumstances, the second acupuncture point does not play a vital role, and only has a gain or debuff effect.
The positions of these two points are not fixed and change regularly. The ancients found the "central axis" based on their changing range, which required five positioning methods to find it.
When looking for the five gates, we have to talk about the gossip about the day after tomorrow.
In Houtian Bagua, Qian is the sky, Kan is the water, Gen is the mountain, Zhen is the thunder, Kun is the earth, Dui is the river, Li is the fire, and Xun is the wind.
The four hexagrams Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen and Zhen belong to the Yang hexagram, which are called the four phases. The four hexagrams Kun, Dui, Li, Xun and Xun belong to the Yin hexagrams, which are called the four places. The five gates are the Zhongyuan (center point) of the Bagua and the five directions represented by the four constellations.
Connect the exchange position and the Sunda position as a line, connect the Kun position and the departure position as a line, and connect the intersection of the two lines with the Zhongyuan. This line is the central axis.
Then connect the two ends of the central axis with the Yusu Guan line to form a triangle. Rotate this triangle so that Taiyou Guan intersects on the central axis. At this time, the positions of the other two vertices are the positions of the two acupoints.
It is said that the Seven Passes indicate the flow of life energy on the ground, while the Nine Palaces indicate the flow of earth energy underground. The directions of the two are completely opposite.
For example, the first of the seven gates is in the Qian position (northwest), the first of the nine palaces is in the Xun position (southeast), and so on. The locations of the two acupoints are the Sixth Palace (He Point) and the Ninth Palace (Yu Point) of the Nine Palaces. The location of the Sixth Palace is mostly a water hole where a well can be dug.
Although it is troublesome to calculate the Nine Palaces, once the location is determined, all kinds of unusual aura flows within them will be undetectable.
Whether they are flying in the sky, hiding underground, escaping in the water, or hiding in caves, as long as there are monsters and ghosts, they are all under Qin Zhaoyun's control.
There is no other way for Qin Zhaoyun to do this.
Although the magnetic needle on his watch beat violently during the day, it was extremely short-lived. It may not explain what the problem is, but it may be the result of static electricity interference in the car body.
Later, when I looked at the plan of the village, I found that the feng shui here was pretty good and it was not a place where dirt and evil practices could hide.
The terrain here is flat with a few small hills that are not obtrusive. There is a big mountain in the distance to the northwest, which blocks some of the cold and strong winds from the north, making it rare to have strong winds here. Moreover, there is the Wei River in the south, which can allow the Yin Qi here to flow smoothly and prevent it from gathering. Even if there is any evil here, it will not become a climate.
However, after reading Jiang Jinjiu's record of the double death incident, it seems that everything is not a simple accident or coincidence, but a mysterious force affecting the connections. He couldn't believe it if he said that nothing happened and nothing was committed.
Therefore, when the ability to move is limited and there are no more obvious clues, the only way is to take the trouble to measure the position of the Nine Palaces and start from the overall situation.
Although it is not easy to detect late at night, famous teachers give birth to great disciples. After Qin Zhaoyun explained, he found Yunken Pass, the first of the seven passes.
This point is far away from the residence and is a wide intersection.
"Brother Zhaoyun, didn't you say that Yunkenguan has the strongest Yang energy? Why is it so cold?"
Jiang Jinjiu rubbed his arms. This kind of coldness that had no warning and should not have appeared had been deeply imprinted on his heart during the previous two encounters with ghosts.
His intuition told him that something was approaching them at this moment.
His words aroused Qin Zhaoyun's doubts. He looked at him and found that his arms were covered with goose bumps. It looked like he really had a cold.
But the air temperature tonight was at least 20 degrees. Qin Zhaoyun felt that the night wind blowing on the ground was a normal night breeze. He still felt a little hot. How could Jiang Jinjiu feel cold?
Then he asked, "Where do you feel cold on your body?"
"Back and neck."
Qin Zhaoyun looked at Jiang Jin behind the wine, and there were only flying mosquitoes and insects in the light. There was some saliva on his finger and it was hanging on his back, but he felt a breeze. It was indeed a bit cold, and it was the kind that made people shiver.
What's going on? Qin Zhaoyun was also puzzled, how could there be a cool cold wind at this point?
He took out a piece of plastic foam, crushed it into particles the size of soybeans and threw them into the air. About half of the foam particles were picked up by the wind and flew in an arc 30 degrees north-west. However, before it flew out of the sight of the two people, the bubble flew back again on a steady straight line of air.
The wind blew against Jiang Jinjiu's sweaty forehead, bringing a pleasant warmth.
Qin Zhaoyun also felt it, and thought that the cold wind just now might be the cold air flow generated during night cooling, and it was not an abnormal phenomenon. So I stopped thinking about it and continued to find the next spot.
Once you determine one level, it will be easy to find the locations of the other six levels.
What made Jiang Jinjiu sigh was that Qin Zhaoyun didn't carry many tools, but all of them were multi-functional and very domineering.
One is a small notebook, only seven inches in size and about 25 centimeters thick. It is matched with a rectangular metal block the size of a brick, something shaped like a microphone but twice as big.
They look all black and look like a pile of scrap metal, but their functions are simply astonishing.
The rectangular metal block is a battery with adjustable voltage up to 5 million volts. When set to 5 million volts, two short metal posts pop up from the top, becoming an electric shock rod that instantly stuns people.
The scientific name of the microphone-like object is "ultrasonic laser detector" and is controlled by a laptop.
The hemispherical mesh part at the top can generate and receive ultrasonic waves, which is used to detect water depth, caves, underground spaces and other places that are difficult to detect manually.
In the middle is a crystal ring, which looks like crystal decoration, but is actually a laser transmitter.
A bracket can be installed on the lower end of the detector, and the length can be adjusted to a ten-meter long pole, which avoids the disadvantage of being unable to climb and erect on flat ground.
As long as there are no obstacles, the effective range of Green Yingying's laser beam is up to three kilometers. The entire crystal ring can generate up to 72 laser beams, which can cover a circular area six kilometers in diameter.
It can not only be used to indicate directions, measure distances, and specify points. It can also scan the terrain and obtain a three-dimensional plan, which is very powerful.
This set of equipment is special portable equipment for geological exploration teams in advanced Western countries. It is not something that can be bought with money.
Qin Zhaoyun also has a telescope, which not only has night vision functions, thermal sensing functions, and metal detection functions, but can also accurately measure the distance between the position where the crosshair is aligned and the visual inspection point.
And there is a microcomputer in the telescope. When a metal object is detected, it will analyze whether it is a lethal weapon. If so, the weapon information will be retrieved from the database. This is a telescope used by foreign special forces, and it is something that money may not be able to buy.
However, the recognition function was modified by Qin Zhaoyun to recognize some unusual clothing, animals, plants, and minerals.
Qin Zhaoyun has these things because of his hobbies.
Although his archaeological scholarship is average, his Feng Shui skills and ability to survey tombs are truly top-notch.
By chance, I collaborated with an archaeological team and discovered that I really like exploring ancient ruins.
At that time, the captain really wanted to invite him to join the team, but he felt that working in the team was too rigid and the daily work was boring, and he didn't want to make himself too public, so he thought of working alone.
Qin Zhaoyun is still young and full of adventurous spirit. In other words, I lament that I have all the skills, but there is no place to use them.
All the strange beasts in ancient tombs have been heard from Master, or written descriptions, or pictures in books, but I have never seen them with my own eyes. So he always wanted to find a strange tomb and visit unknown areas so that he could experience it personally and see something, so that he was unwilling to miss every seemingly possible place.
Fortunately, he had a wealthy and well-connected elder brother, and through his connections he was able to purchase this set of equipment.
Whenever I find something interesting about the place I visit, I use instruments to scan the topography and landforms to study it.
Gradually, collecting topographic maps became his hobby.
It was said that Jiang Jinjiu was lucky to see these two things, and he knew this.
At first, Qin Zhaoyun didn't take out the equipment and was too embarrassed to borrow it. After taking it out, as long as Qin Zhaoyun didn't use it, the telescope never left his hand, as if he was afraid that he would never be able to see again after dawn.
At this moment, Jiang Jinjiu was playing with the heat sensing function. Qin Zhaoyun in the mirror was a red humanoid with green and yellow patches.
Looking at the village again, there are several red "bugs".
"This telescope is so awesome that it can even go through walls!" Jiang Jinjiu secretly praised it.
In fact, what penetrates the wall is the dogs and poultry kept outside the houses.
While looking around, he looked towards the woods to the north.
"What the hell!" Jiang Jinjiu exclaimed.
He saw a large red mass in the woods, and he couldn't identify what it was based on its shape.
Qin Zhaoyun heard the sound and grabbed the telescope, and indeed saw a large mass of red. Just as I was about to change the night vision function, I suddenly saw it split into two and slowly moved to the left.
After switching to the night vision function, Qin Zhaoyun smiled and said, "It's just two cats making a big fuss."
"cat?"
Jiang Jinjiu took the telescope and took a look. They were cats, and they were two super fat cats. No wonder the thermal image just now was so big.
Feeling relieved, he turned back the heat sensor function and stared at the two cats.
After a while, Jiang Jinjiu felt something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he found that when the two cats overlapped, the color of the thermal image was not as red as it was just now, and the heat was significantly reduced. Moreover, the height and size cannot be justified. The previous thermal image looked like a squatting person.
If two cats want to recreate their previous shapes, they need to stand close together. Or is it possible that one is crouching underneath and the other is crouching above its head?
Jiang Jinjiu used the night vision function to see where the cat was found, and there were two shiny balls there!
If you look closely, you will see a rat-like animal squatting there.
Its head was about the same size as that of a kitten, and its two eyes emitted a silvery cold light in the dark night. It stared directly at Jiang Jinjiu, and opened its small mouth, like a small black hole!
Jiang Jinjiu felt like a sniper who found himself targeted by someone else's gun. This time it was over!
"Yun, yun, yun..." Jiang Jinjiu wanted to call Qin Zhaoyun, but he couldn't say the word "brother".
"What did you find?!" Qin Zhaoyun grabbed the telescope, laughed after seeing it, and said, "What are you afraid of? I said Jiang Jinjiu, you have never seen a weasel, this is it."
"Yellow weasel?!"
Qin Zhaoyun handed the telescope to him and said, "Don't worry, it's not a goblin."
When Jiang Jinjiu heard that it was not a monster, he was no longer afraid and took the telescope to observe it.
"Brother Zhaoyun, why are his eyes so bright and white?"
Qin Zhaoyun sighed and said, "Of course, night vision uses infrared rays, and reflective things will appear bright."
"Ahaha... Look, I'm so confused that I forgot all about it."
In fact, Jiang Jinjiu has never used electronic products with night vision function, and he had no idea that this would happen.
He had an ulterior motive for lying. He was trying to trick someone else's sister. The timid Qinxuan knew it, and if he was ignorant, he would lose face.
At this moment, he was afraid that Qin Zhaoyun would see the flaw, so he changed the topic without waiting for anyone to answer.
"I have a question, Brother Yun, this is my first time seeing a weasel, but I've heard people say that weasels are good at magic. Is this true?"
"Maybe. To be honest, I have never seen anyone become a spirit. But my master said that all living beings have the ability to cultivate immortality. It just depends on whether it has wisdom and then whether it has perseverance. Logically speaking , it can be thought that the creatures who cultivate immortality have something to do with their previous lives. Otherwise, as an ordinary creature, it is as difficult as climbing Mount Taishan with bare hands to break through animal nature and instinct, let alone the difficulty of breaking through intelligence later. Unless encountering A great opportunity, otherwise the short life span of more than ten years of animals would not be enough. Also because of the long cultivation period, creatures with long lifespans take advantage. In the animal world, there are four great immortals and four small immortals. There are also differences in the specific classification according to different regions, but the basic differences are not big. The four immortals are: python, fox, crane, and turtle; the four minor immortals are: weasel, hedgehog, rat, and horse snake (lizard); the four immortals have different abilities. Regardless of the size of the four immortals, the same ability is illusion. Once they practice to a certain extent, their intelligence is higher than that of ordinary people to a certain extent, and their strength and ability are also extraordinary. If what Grandma Sun said is true, then the pair of weasels are the least After practicing for a hundred years, I have reached the second stage of "naked body", and my abilities in all aspects have been divorced from reality. By the time I reach the third level of "feathered body", I am afraid that I will be invulnerable to all kinds of weapons and poisons. What you see now is just a An ordinary weasel is just..."
Qin Zhaoyun talked for a long time and suddenly realized that something was missing. After thinking about it for a moment, Jiang Jinjiu was too quiet.
I looked sideways at him, only to see the telescope lying on the ground, and Jiang Jinjiu was missing!
