"Coincidence? What do you mean?"
Hu Bayi and three others looked at Song Xing in unison.
Song Xing reached out and picked up the compass on the table, watching the compass' pointer swaying slightly due to vibration: "Taoist Banshan has been looking for things for thousands of years, why can you always find clues so easily?"
Hu Bayi frowned, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Song Xing did not answer, but asked Hu Bayi: "Do you have a bronze dragon talisman on you?"
Hu Bayi was a little surprised, "How did you know?"
He glanced at the compass and asked, "Could it be from divination again?"
This bronze dragon talisman was obtained by him in Huangpizi's tomb. Although he didn't know its function, he still kept it with him.
Hu Bayi took out the bronze dragon talisman, and Song Xing reached out to take it. Feeling the simple lines on it, he asked Hu Bayi: "Do you know the origin of this bronze dragon talisman?"
Seeing Hu Bayi and the others shaking their heads, Song Xing said, "I just heard Miss Yang tell you some ancient anecdotes. I also have a rumor here that I can tell you."
Putting the bronze dragon talisman on the table, Song Xing said slowly: "In ancient times, at the bottom of the abyss of the South China Sea, sea air grew and gathered. This sea air spontaneously ignited on the seabed, forming a mysterious dragon fire."
"Later generations will call it the mysterious place of ruins."
"The underwater dragon fire in Guixu caused drastic changes in the underwater ecological environment of the South China Sea. Aquatic animals migrated in groups. When the old turtles died, they climbed up to the Baiyan Cave on the Inner Mongolia prairie to bury their bones. The sea air in the turtle bones was closely related to the Baiyan Cave. The combination of the eye cave environment creates a terrifying foehn wind."
Shirley Yang looked at Song Xing talking and was puzzled. Because she was as knowledgeable as she was, she had never heard of these legends, but it seemed that what Song Xing said had noses and eyes, and it didn't look like they were fabricated.
Song Xing continued: "During the Shang Dynasty, a descendant of the Yellow River Civilization, the Hentian clan, left the Central Plains and migrated to the South China Sea. They accidentally discovered Guixu and established the Kingdom of Hentian there."
"The ancestors of the Kingdom of Hatred accidentally discovered the existence of dragon fire, and used the wisdom of their ancestors to master the secret of dragon fire, and developed an extremely advanced bronze civilization."
When Hu Bayi heard this, he looked at the bronze dragon talisman in front of him and thought to himself, could this be the bronze made by Hentian Kingdom?
Having said this, Song Xing stretched out his hand and wiped it on the table, and several copper coins were placed on the table to form a gossip shape.
"Thousands of years ago, Fuxi created the Xiantian Bagua, which was called the Fuxi Xiantian Bagua Diagram. When the Xiantian Bagua spread to the late Shang Dynasty and early Zhou Dynasty, King Wen of Zhou, who had great sagacity, invented the Houtian Bagua based on the numbers of the nine palaces in the Hetu Luoshu. "
"He integrated and deduced the innate and acquired hexagrams, and finally deduced the sixteen hexagrams of the whole sky, which are said to be able to "exhaustively study the changes in the heaven and earth and reveal the hidden secrets of heaven", which are also the ancient hexagrams of Zhoutian."
"Later, King Wen was afraid that the ancient hexagrams of Zhou Tian would be tabooed by ghosts and gods, so he destroyed half of them, and only then did he have all kinds of hexagrams today."
When Fatty Wang heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "But what does this have to do with the bronze dragon talisman in Lao Hu's hand?"
Song Xing said unhurriedly: "In the period of King Mu of Zhou Dynasty, because he knew that the Kingdom of Hatred had superb bronze smelting technology, he sent an envoy there and ordered the Kingdom of Hentian to cast the Heavenly Cauldron with dragon fire."
"The Kingdom of Hatred did not dare to disobey the Zhou Dynasty, so it cast six bronze artifacts from the ancient Guixu tripod, hexagram mirror, dragon talisman, ghost talisman, human talisman, and fish talisman with dragon fire and dedicated them to King Zhou Mu. They were eventually buried with King Zhou Mu."
"During the Qin Dynasty, the tomb of King Mu of Zhou Dynasty was stolen, the ancient tripod of Guixu was destroyed by thunder and fire, and the hexagram mirror and the other four talismans were scattered everywhere."
"Qin Shihuang visited the south and met an old man who fished out an ancient corpse from the sea. This ancient corpse had a majestic appearance and its clothes were more like those of an ancient king. Qin Shihuang's men believed that the ancient corpse was ominous, so they suggested using the Eight Mirrors of King Qin." The King of Qin's Bone Mirror "came to suppress the zombies in the South China Sea. This King of Qin's Bone Mirror is the Gua Mirror among the six weapons of Hentian."
Having said this, Song Xing tapped his fingers on the table again, and all the copper coins suddenly stood upright on the table with a slight vibration, and then began to spin crazily.
This miraculous operation once again shocked the eyes of the other three people present.
Fatty Wang even subconsciously looked at Song Xing's fingers to see if there was any transparent silk thread tied to them.
Song Xing looked at the spinning copper coins and said, "When Miss Yang was talking about the origin of Muchen Bead just now, I secretly made a hexagram. The hexagram showed that there was an expert helping behind the scenes, and the motives were impure, so I thought this was the case. It’s all a bit of a coincidence.”
As soon as the words fell, the copper coins also stopped spinning and fell again to form a pattern.
Song Xing took a look and said: "There are hexagrams in the universe, five blessings and three misfortunes. The Kun hexagram is the two lines of earth and wood; the position of the Xun hexagram is gold, the position of the Dui hexagram is silver, and the shock is the two lines of thunder and fire. The meaning of the hexagram That is, this trip to Yunnan has been anticipated by some people."
Song Xing's words were very dull, but Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang, and Shirley Yang were all dumbfounded. This mysterious and unpredictable astrological method was simply unbelievable.
Hu Bayi's dragon-hunting skills and gold-dividing acupuncture points were all self-taught. Only Shirley Yang's family had a long history of learning and knew many strange things.
But there are only two kinds of divination techniques that she knows, one is tortoise divination using candle light, and the other is divination using candle light in mirror.
Turtle divination is interpreted through the pattern images on the turtle's back. Mirror divination is a bit more complicated, but it is the protagonist of the last four parts. Mainly through the candle light through the copper hole, after imaging on the back of the mirror for interpretation.
The process of mirror divination includes four parts: hexagram diagram, hexagram number, hexagram talisman, and hexagram words.
Under the specific operation method of the hexagram talisman, the hexagram diagram is obtained, and then the hexagram numbers are deduced, and finally the hexagram words are compared for accurate interpretation.
Listening to what Song Xing said just now, Shirley Yang guessed that the six bronze vessels made by Hentian Ancient Kingdom should be divination tools based on the ancient Gua Mansion.
The Guixu hexagram mirror is a tool used for imaging. The back of the ancient mirror of the Zhou Dynasty usually has Zhoutian bronze threads. Each bronze thread is embedded with the corresponding hexagram symbol. If it is a divination, the back of the mirror must be turned in a specific way. With one turn of the machine number, you can get the complete hexagram.
There should be 16 complete hexagram talismans. The Guixu hexagram mirror, a divination artifact, contains a total of 4 divination talismans, namely: dragon talisman, fish talisman, human talisman and ghost talisman.
Shirley Yang noticed that there were no eyes in the position of the dragon beast on the bronze dragon talisman, and guessed that the eyeless place was the hexagram eye, which could miss the candlelight and create an image on the back of the mirror.
And when she saw Song Xing's so-called Plum Blossom Yi Technique, she could predict unknown things by just throwing a few copper coins at random, and the predictions were very accurate, and she was amazed for a moment.
Shirley Yang watched Song Xing take away the copper coins again and asked: "Mr. Song said that we went to Yunnan to present the King's Tomb, and there was someone behind it. Can you guess who it was?"
Song Xing glanced at her and said, "That's the person who has been participating in your treasure hunt."
Fatty Wang frowned and thought for a while, then widened his eyes: "Is it the big gold tooth?"
Hu Bayi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and then looked at Shirley Yang solemnly: "Could it be, Professor Sun?"
Shirley Yang repeated it in a low voice, recalling everything that happened these days, she couldn't help but shudder.
