The growth rings of the three trees in Weiyang Nancun are relatively round in shape, with even gaps, and are not biased towards one side.
This may not seem like much in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of the Qin brothers and sisters and Master Xu, it is unusual.
Under normal circumstances, the side of the tree that receives the most sunlight has a larger gap between the annual rings and a larger arc of the lines.
In metaphysics, the side with larger fluctuations in the growth ring pattern represents the general direction of the flow of aura in the region.
However, the annual rings of these three trees and the old tree stump are approximately elliptical in the first 20 rings, with fluctuating lines. However, the last 26 growth rings are almost circular and the lines are very smooth.
The growth rings of the willow trees cut by Li Dazui look like those drawn by a compass.
The first 4 circles of the drug-killed tree were slightly convex, but the next 20 circles were almost round with smooth lines. How could this be possible in Huiyang Bureau!
Logically speaking, there should be egg-shaped growth rings. This shows the balance of yin and yang, which means that the yin energy in the village also has a turning effect!
"But is this possible?" Qin Zhaoyun opened the map and said, "This time Yin is not as simple as Hui Yang. If there is a slight mistake, it will not be formed. Besides, it is based on Hui Yang. Is it possible to achieve such a contradictory formation?"
"Well... this is really a problem." Qin Xuan said while measuring the locations of these tree stumps, "This Yin vein will become very scattered in the Huiyang Bureau. It is too difficult to gather it together, let alone turn it around." , even if you put two earth eyes, it may not work."
Jiang Jinjiu didn't understand what Qin Xuan meant, but he looked at the non-circular growth rings and had a question in his mind, so he opened his mouth and said, "Qin Xuan? Why are the three tree rings not exactly the same? According to your explanation It seems that the tree looked normal for the first dozen years when it grew, but then it changed."
Qin Xuan was thinking about how to explain, but Master Xu spoke first, "In my opinion, how about we confirm the Huiyang Zhongju first? From the beginning, we only made a rough judgment, and maybe there is something wrong with the Huiyang Zhongju." There is a problem. Didn’t Xiaojiang find out that the trees at the location were planted by villagers according to customs? This formation is not naturally formed, and the possibility of problems is much higher."
As he spoke, he gave Jiang Jinjiu an approving look, and Qin Xuan followed suit. Although his look was a little disdainful, it still made Jiang Jinjiu excited.
I thought that it would finally come in handy for the whole thing, unlike a useless person who could only watch the fun.
The Qin brothers and sisters had no objection to this and immediately took out tools to conduct surveys.
To establish the Huiyang Bureau and the Huiyang Heavy Bureau, we must first confirm the location of the Seven Passes.
But it didn't matter once he took the test, it really surprised Qin Zhaoyun. The pass positions calculated in the middle of that night were all wrong, by more than a little!
This situation once again caused the three people to fall into sorrow. If one point of deviation is wrong, it is wrong, and the result is all deviation. Where is the problem? !
Qin Xuan 100% believed that his brother's ability would not have such a big deviation. Master Xu had only met Qin Zhaoyun twice, but he did not believe that he could make every mistake.
If Qin Zhaoyun is right, then what he is facing now is a situation that has never happened in ancient times, especially in places where people live.
Once the air flow is formed, it cannot change significantly unless the place undergoes all-round changes. What's more, it has been confirmed that the Huiyang Bureau has been established.
Seeing that it was getting dark, the three of them decided to conduct a comprehensive survey of the place and conduct another survey after dark.
If there are really different results, then the situation will be complicated.
It is said that when the Qin brothers and Master Xu were running around the village with compasses, Jiang Jinjiu went to the village chief's house alone. He was too concerned about the differences in the annual rings.
To break it down, the village mutated twenty years ago. At that time, the village chief had been in office for about two years. He wanted to find out what happened in the village twenty years ago.
According to the village chief's account, in the spring of twenty-two years ago, he was still a secretary.
As the province vigorously promotes the scientific development of agriculture, the village chief's first priority is to increase income without expanding the area of cultivated land.
At that time, many experts came to the countryside and taught the villagers many methods and summed up many experiences, which played a huge role.
But the villagers were very poor at that time, and modern farming was a joke. Not to mention a tractor, I can't even afford a brand new motorcycle.
The support from the province is distributed step by step. At present, only basic physical goods such as seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides can be received.
The old village chief had backward thinking and could not relieve himself of the burden and handed over the task to the secretary.
After he took over, he was very ambitious and tried his best to find investors. After several months of running around, he finally found it.
It was the CEO of a company specializing in agricultural products, named Li Youcai, who promised to invest in equipment for the village. The return is that the types of crops must be cultivated by the company during the contract period, and after harvest they are purchased at a price that is 5% lower than the average market price.
This condition was very reasonable for the villagers, and they hit it off immediately.
Li Youcai was also a farmer. He found that part of the farmland in the village was no longer suitable for growing crops, and seeing that the villagers' houses were generally old, he simply spent some more money and helped the village apply for the overall rural planning.
At that time, villagers only need to spend a little money to build new houses on land that is not suitable for planting.
As a result, the villagers' houses are concentrated, unlike the scattered houses in the east and west in the past. Electric wires, telephone lines, tap water and other facilities that benefit the people can be centrally installed, which has many benefits.
The project progressed very smoothly, and the overall plan was successfully completed a year and a half after the village chief took office.
Therefore, the appearance of the village is no longer what it used to be, and it can be considered a major change.
Jiang Jinjiu also learned from the village chief that the pomegranate trees that make up the Huiyang Bureau in the village were almost transplanted from each household, and only 17 wild pomegranate trees remained in place unattended.
Two of them were above the point. At that time, people thought that the trees were growing so well that it was a pity to cut them down.
What's even more coincidental is that that year was when the Huiyang Bureau was established.
The last point is on the ridge of a family's backyard. Logically speaking, this tree would never be planted there.
The village chief said that the family hoped that their newborn son would grow up vigorously and have a great future. He invited a fortune teller from the mountain to do many tricks, one of which was to move the tree in his front yard to the ridge of the backyard.
From this, a formation was formed, which was very awkward.
Judging from the time, we can be sure that the fortune teller did not do it on purpose. He stayed in that house for less than two hours, and no one saw him set foot in other places. Naturally, it is impossible to know that the Huiyang situation can be formed by just this one point. .
Now Jiang Jinjiu was even more confused. The Huiyang Bureau was established twenty years ago. If the Huiyang Chong Bureau was also established the next year, the situation would get worse and worse. Why is this?
He couldn't figure it out, so he had to go to the Qin brothers and sisters and Master Xu.
At the dinner table, everyone was thinking.
Qinxuan was thinking about how to get the chicken legs in the soup bowl into his own bowl.
Qin Zhaoyun was thinking about how to make the bachelors in the village less interested in his sister.
Master Xu was thinking about what to do with tea after dinner because he forgot to bring tea leaves.
They all sat there silently, as if they had lost their souls, which made Jiang Jinjiu very helpless.
He couldn't stand the silence during the meal and thought about what to say.
"Do you think...will those two weasels come tonight?"
As he spoke, he put the chicken legs into Qin Xuan's bowl, which made Qin Xuan secretly happy.
"The devil knows." Qin Xuan happily took a bite of the chicken leg, not caring whether his eating appearance looked good or not. "Just rest assured. Even if they come this time, they won't be able to take advantage. My swords are enough to chop off their heads."
"Oh!" Master Xu's eyes gleamed as soon as he mentioned the sword, "Can I, the old man, take a look at the girl's sword?"
Regardless of whether people agree or not, put on your reading glasses first.
"sure."
After wiping his hands, Qinxuan took out a four-foot-long camphor wood box from his luggage. When he opened the box, he saw three swords.
One is a three-foot long sword, and the other two are pairs of short swords, each fifteen inches long.
A clang! Qin Xuan neatly pulled out two daggers and held a sword flower in his hand. The two daggers with flashing green light were displayed in front of everyone.
"Master Xu, I don't know the name of this pair of daggers. What I can confirm is that they came from the palace and are of good quality. I guess they are the weapons of a close guard favored by a certain prince in the Ming Dynasty. They should have killed many people. They are very evil. It's very heavy, and my brother's handle is..."
"Longquan Sword!" Master Xu smiled and said, "If you can't see this, what else can I, an old man, see?"
Qin Xuan smiled sweetly and said, "Master Xu has really good eyesight."
"Where there."
Master Xu took one of the daggers and held it in his hand for a closer look. He saw that the red hilt was very eye-catching and was engraved with a pattern that looked like a tiger's head. Master Xu believed that this was most likely the symbol of Jinyiwei.
This sword is pretty average, nothing special except for the sharp edge.
Master Xu switched to another dagger and examined it. He saw that the blade was about five millimeters thicker than the previous one, and the square yellow hilt was also more than an inch longer than the previous one. There is no engraving, the handle is made into a ring, the guard is square, and the front end is serrated.
Master Xu believes that this design should be related to the master's martial arts. He holds the sword upside down in his left hand and uses the serrations to block the enemy's blade while blocking secondary attacks. You can install a flying rope on the end of the handle, turn it into a rope sword, and be able to hurt enemies from a long distance, etc.
The sword body glowed faintly purple under the bright white light, and there was a red line about four inches long and two millimeters wide on the sword's spine leading to the tip of the sword.
In response to this, Master Xu's expression became solemn and he said, "Miss Qin, it's best not to use this sword frequently."
"Does Master Xu think there is something wrong with the sword?" the brother and sister asked in unison.
Master Xu put the sword on the table and asked, "Where did you get this sword from?"
"Uh..." Qin Xuan thought for a while and said, "I don't know. I bought this from an auction a few years ago, and I didn't even ask the seller."
Qinxuan lied. These three swords were obtained from their senior brother Gongsun Zhi.
At their age, although there are ways to make money, it is limited, especially the channels. It is impossible to easily find ancient famous swords, even if they are more recent ones.
Unlike Gongsun Zhi, who has a lot of money and many connections, he can get whatever he wants.
These three swords came from Gongsun Zhi, who saw that his junior brothers and sisters did not have any decent weapons. He was afraid that people would laugh at him for not taking care of his juniors, so he gave them a few pieces.
Although he is not a famous craftsman or magic weapon, he is not an ordinary thing either. Being able to enter Gongsun Zhi's collection room must have some origins.
These three swords are indeed products of the Ming Dynasty. It is said that they were all weapons for the close bodyguards of Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty.
Although its quality is not as extraordinary as the famous ancient swords, it is still better than modern knives.
Originally, these three swords were passed down to modern times, but only the double daggers had very powerful evil spirits, and I think they had killed many people.
The Longquan Sword was very weak, but it wandered into the gang and passed into the hands of a "swordsman". As far as is known, there are three elder brother-level figures who have died under this sword, and there are at least ten minions.
Moreover, it is said that the swordsman finally committed suicide with this sword, so that the evil spirit on the sword surpassed that of the dagger in just a few years, which is really unusual.
"In that case..." Master Xu said, stroking his beard, "Has Miss Qin encountered any dangers in recent years?"
"Yes, I just met him!" Qin Xuan raised his eyebrows and pointed at Jiang Jinjiu, "I have been in bad luck since I met him!"
Jiang Jinjiu cried out from the bottom of his heart that he was unlucky, not her.
Just as he was about to retort, Master Xu smiled and said, "Maybe I guessed it wrong." He picked up the dagger and looked at it carefully.
"This sword should be a female sword. I originally guessed that the owner of the sword had fought with a monster. The red line was injured by the monster's claws during the fierce fight. In the end, the monster was stabbed by this sword, and the blood was soaked in the scratches. It is fused with the sword body, and its soul is very likely to be attached to it. Therefore, this sword is probably an evil thing and will defeat its master. But you said that it has been fine these years, so it seems that I was wrong."
"What will happen if the master is defeated?" Jiang Jinjiu asked curiously.
Qin Zhaoyun put the sword in Jiang Jinjiu's hand and said with a sullen face, "It will cause trouble again and again, basically life-threatening every time. It will also suck the master's essence and shorten his life. This is not the worst, if the attachment on the sword is given, If the soul is given a chance, it will bite back its master and become its puppet. Even if it dies, it will never be reincarnated. Do you think it will be miserable or not?!"
As he spoke, he suddenly rushed forward and met Jiang Jinjiu's eyes, only one centimeter away, which made Jiang Jinjiu feel nervous.
"It's miserable, it's miserable..."
Jiang Jinjiu subconsciously pushed away the dagger. Although he didn't know what the backlash was, Qin Zhaoyun's threat made him know that it was a terrifying thing.
In my mind, I recalled a short film I watched one day, in which a lion trained by an animal trainer bit back, and the man died without even uttering a cry. That is so chilling and terrifying.
"Okay, brother. Stop scaring him." Qin Xuan chuckled and said, "What if this sword is really a demon sword and sucks his soul so that he will never be reincarnated? How will you save him, a troublesome guy?"
"It's really a headache." As he said this, Qin Zhaoyun closed his eyes, waved his chopsticks to draw in the air, and started mumbling in a buzzing manner, completely confused.
Qinxuan laughed and said, "Brother, why are you so bad? He hasn't died yet. Why are you reciting salvation scriptures?"
Qin Zhaoyun opened his eyes and replied solemnly, "I haven't read it for a long time. I'm afraid I won't be familiar with it, so I'll review it first." After that, he closed his eyes and started to read it.
Jiang Jinjiu was completely defeated by these siblings.
Until night.
The moon was sparse, the breeze was gentle, and it was a comfortable night.
The gentle rustle of leaves is like a beautiful lullaby floating throughout the village, making the villagers fall asleep sweetly.
Occasionally, a burst of snoring would be heard, but it would be blocked by the sound and would not disturb the neighbors. Occasionally, there were a few dogs barking, but it was just a dog from a certain family being disturbed by a mouse or cat, and the silence returned after a while.
The whole village was dark, except for one house whose lights were still on. That was the house where Jiang Jinjiu lived.
Not long after, the only light in the darkness went out, but there were three more pillars of light pointing uncertainly. Those were Jiang Jinjiu and Qin's brother and sister. They were walking forward with flashlights on.
At this time, the Qin brothers and sisters were fully armed and looked like knights.
As a follower, Jiang Jinjiu walked behind them carrying a backpack with several talisman stickers on his body, making him look like a lion dancer. His appearance was both funny and pitiful.
It's hard for him to follow calmly. It's probably Qin Xuan's fault.
But Master Xu slept comfortably on the bed, saying that his old bones could not bear the torment. You can talk a few words, but you can't compare with young people when you use your hands.
The three of them first came to Yunken Pass, which was measured during the day, and found that the points were really out of place!
The three of them set up the laser transmitter as planned and used single-line lasers to locate other points. Then Qin Zhaoyun protected Qin Xuan and re-measured Qiguan, leaving Jiang Jinjiu to take care of the equipment and keep in touch with the walkie-talkie. When a point is detected, a dual-line laser is emitted to point to the new point.
It took about an hour to measure the seven levels at night.
Qin Zhaoyun made no mistake.
The seven points measured at night actually reversed the seven points measured during the day by 90 degrees!
