Six Ways of Fumo

Chapter 787 Thief Star
"There is also an immature idea, which is... to actively absorb the earth energy in the eight formations."

Ding Ermiao pondered and said: "If it can be absorbed, it will also stop the formation."

Ji Xiaoxiao perked up and said with a smile: "Yes, use your iron guts to absorb the earth energy there and steal its lair!"

Ding Ermiao nodded and smiled, that was indeed what he thought.

But Ding Ermiao has not yet made a specific plan on how to arrange the formation to absorb them.At the same time, Ding Ermiao was also worried that the earth energy of the eight-door life-and-death formation was too powerful, which would make the Iron Dan Sword Energy out of his control.

Fortunately, there is no time urgency to break the formation. Ding Ermiao can gradually explore and find a way.

After dinner, Gu Qinglan and Zong Ruixiang stayed up all night to fight, continuing to familiarize themselves with the changes in the eight-door life-and-death formation on the sand table.If you practice more now, you will be more confident of escaping if you encounter it again.Ding Ermiao and Ji Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, were sitting on the off-road vehicle with their eyes closed to relax and take some time off.

It wasn't until after nine o'clock in the evening that Ding Ermiao arranged for everyone to rest and said: "Xiaoxiao, you and Sister Lan will sleep on the off-road vehicle, and the boss and I will set up a tent over there."

"Hey, hey, hey... Brother Ding." Zong Ruixiang pointed to the sky and said, "Didn't you say that at night, you should watch the stars and fix your acupuncture points?"

Ding Ermiao smiled and said: "Stargazing also requires certain conditions. Now is the first half of the moon. You see, the bright moon is in the sky, which affects the starlight, so it is not a good time. If you want to see clearly, you must wait until the second half of the night when the moon sets. after."

"I see..." Zong Ruixiang nodded in understanding.

"The best time to watch the stars is during a total solar eclipse. Unfortunately, I have only seen it once in my life. I was still young at that time and didn't know how to read the stars." Ding Ermiao added:
"My master said that some powerful people, such as Yuan Tiangang, can use the stars during a total solar eclipse to analyze all the major events that will happen during the next total solar eclipse. Unfortunately, I don't have this ability, and I can't catch up with the next one. There was a total solar eclipse. The next total solar eclipse will be in 500 years.”

Ji Xiaoxiao laughed and said: "I understand, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen and others can know 500 years in advance and [-] years in the future. They must have seen the solar eclipse."

……

Stop gossip and pick up the important ones.

In the middle of the night, at two o'clock in the morning, Ding Ermiao got out of the tent, looked at the terrain and the sky, and walked towards a low slope in the northwest.

Needless to say, Zong Ruixiang naturally followed him.

This guy stayed up almost all night, just waiting for this moment to witness the Taoist magic of stargazing and acupoint fixation.

The new moon in the western sky is about to fall, and the stars in the night sky are bright and dazzling.

"Boss, do you still remember the general direction of Zhuge Wuhou's tomb?" Ding Ermiao first confirmed the direction of Wuhou's tomb before stargazing.

Zong Ruixiang was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the southeast and said: "Southeast, here, the direction of the star. The brightest one has three...no, four small stars next to it, do you see it?"

Ding Ermiao looked in the direction of Zong Ruixiang's finger, nodded and said, "That's Jing Muxuan in 28 Su..."

"I don't know them. In my opinion, they are all the same." Zong Ruixiang laughed and said:

"Brother Ding, if there's nothing wrong with me, I'd like to give you some advice. Of course, at my age, I've had a good life, and I won't be able to dig in the soil for food in the future. But I can listen to what you say and grow up. With your knowledge, you’ll be able to brag about it in the future, right?”

If you steal from a teacher, just steal from a teacher. But to say so modestly is just like an old fox.

Ding Ermiao chuckled and said: "Stargazing and fixing acupuncture points is not a unique skill of any school. Of course I can tell you about it. It's just that my knowledge is limited, so what I say may not be correct."

"Brother, you are humble. I am all ears." Zong Ruixiang smiled flatteringly.

There were rustling footsteps behind them, but it was Gu Qinglan and Ji Xiaoxiao who also got off the off-road vehicle and watched Ding Ermiao's technique of stargazing and acupoint fixation.

Ding Ermiao turned around, smiled at Ji Xiaoxiao and Gu Qinglan, and then said:

"After finding the real dragon, the dragon and the tiger are flying, and the water city bends and hugs the body to return. The former court is in full force, and the back is wearing purple clothes. Neither Zhuge Liang nor Liu Bowen has the destiny of the real dragon emperor, so they are destined not to wear yellow. For those who are rich and powerful, they can only be red to purple. At the highest level, they can only wear purple clothes. Therefore, the favored ministers of the Qing Dynasty often received yellow vests and yellow jackets as rewards from their masters, but they could not get a full set of yellow clothes. . From this point of view, if you want to find Liu Bowen’s tomb, you can’t start from the main star, but focus on the auxiliary star.”

Zong Ruixiang leaned closer and said, "Can you tell me...in more detail?"

"That's the distinction between dragon and tiger, monarch and minister. The emperor corresponds to the main star, and the ministers correspond to the auxiliary star. This is true for observing luck, judging life and death, and determining tombs." Ding Ermiao pointed to the sky and said:

"We stand here and can see the position of the main stars in the sky. There are nine in total, namely Tanlang, Jumen, Wuqu, Lucun, Lianzhen, Wenqu, Pojun, Zuofu, Youbi... Among them, except for the Bi star, the other eight stars can be used to locate and make holes. These eight stars have corresponding companion stars. When searching for a tomb, start with the companion stars."

Zong Ruixiang was not ashamed to ask, "Then why... Bixing can't do acupuncture?"

Ding Ermiao was tireless in teaching and said: "Do you know Bi Ma Wen? It's Sun Monkey. Bi Ma Wen's Bi is Bi Xing's Bi. Monkeys have no correct shape, and Bi Xing has no correct shape, so they cannot be positioned for acupoints. In layman's terms , just like the stars are elusive and their direction is uncertain, you can’t be sure where is the right place for a burial.”

"Listening to you talk is better than ten years of studying! Brother Ding, you really learned a lot today."

Zong Ruixiang flattered him repeatedly and gave a thumbs up, then asked: "In addition to the Bixing star, there are eight auxiliary stars. Which one should we use to judge?"

"Every one of the remaining eight stars is possible. It needs to be carefully judged based on the terrain. But based on the terrain, I can rule out the two stars Tanlang and Jumen." Ding Ermiao pointed to the stars in the sky and said:
"The greedy wolf's hole is the nipple and the head, and the giant gate is the cave. This astrology is inconsistent with the terrain here, so there is absolutely no tomb in this area that is positioned according to the two stars of the greedy wolf giant gate. If there is, It no longer exists. It is a taboo to counteract the celestial phenomenon, and it is difficult to preserve the tomb."

Gu Qinglan looked up for a long time, her neck ached from looking at it, and said: "It's too profound, I really can't understand it."

Zong Ruixiang listened with great interest and asked: "Brother Ding, in your opinion, which stars are most likely to correspond to Liu Bowen's tomb?"

"Most likely..." Ding Ermiao hesitated for a moment, then suddenly looked back at Zong Ruixiang and said, "Do you know which star corresponds to ours?"

Zong Ruixiang was surprised and happy, and asked: "What, we also have stars that correspond to each other? Is it true that my junior sister is right, and I should send the stars down to earth?"

You are like a broom star descending to earth!
Ding Ermiao gave a bitter smile, pointed at a dim star in the sky, and said: "That star corresponds to us tonight. That is... the Thief Star, dim and lightless, indicating that we will gain nothing tonight."

"Thief star?!" Gu Qinglan and Ji Xiaoxiao both looked at each other, and after an exclamation, there was no more sound.
