Wandering

Chapter 182
Maybe it's because people have seen it for many years, and people don't think much about it when they see Zhuangyuan Bridge.When Feng Junzi mentioned it today, I really think this bridge is too strange!It does not stand on a river, but digs a large deep pool in the open space.This pool is semicircular and has a diameter of ten feet.The side of the arc protrudes to the south, facing the Dragon Head Tower in the distance, and the side of the straight line is to the north, adjacent to Wucheng Middle School.This white stone bridge has a three-hole span, one foot and eight feet wide, and five feet long. It is built in the middle of a half-moon-shaped deep pool from south to north.

If someone builds such a bridge now, it is a meaningless waste of money and people!In ancient times, building bridges and paving roads was a well-known act of kindness, and it was also a matter of great significance. Who would spend manpower, material resources, and financial resources to build such a bridge that does not need to exist?Wouldn't it be more beautiful to erect this bridge at the position of Aofeng Bridge on the Jushui River just to commemorate the ancestors and commend the legacy?In ancient times, there was no Aofeng Bridge.

Gentleman Feng smiled at my puzzled look. He pointed to a picture of Zhuangyuan Bridge in the materials and said: "This is a Fengshui bridge.... A semicircular deep pool was dug to gather the earth's energy, and a bridge was built on the pool to keep the terrain continuous. It's unique."

"Hearing what you said really makes sense, I can only explain it this way, otherwise this bridge doesn't need to exist. It's just why the ancestors of the Mei family chose this place?"

Feng Junzi took out a miniature map of Wucheng from his pocket, on which two circles were drawn with a red pen, and a curved line was drawn in the middle.He pointed to the picture and said: "Wucheng has nine hundred miles of mountains and rivers, and the terrain has been exhausted here. In front is the Jushui River, and forward is the dragon entering the water. The ground veins are walking in such a way that the momentum is balanced. But someone just set up a bridge by the Jushui River. The Dragon Head Pagoda suppresses the dragon head of the ground veins, making the dragon trapped in the wild and unable to see the wind and enter the water... Therefore, a deep pool is dug to store water and build a bridge at the place where the dragon kisses, so that the dragon can be kept on the ground without being trapped, and it can be cultivated. The pool actually means 'dragon draws water'."

"Suppressing the dragon's veins and cultivating the earth's energy, wouldn't it be superfluous to erect the pagoda?"

Feng Junzi pointed to the Zhuangyuan Bridge and then pointed to the landmark of the Dragon Head Pagoda and said: "The Dragon fetches water from the Zhuangyuan Bridge, so the hill under the Dragon Head Pagoda means the dragon spit out pearls. The pagodas gather together, and under the pagodas, the great artifacts of the sacred mountain are refined into a celestial cave. This is an ingenious idea, and Mei's move has a deep meaning."

"Is there another meaning? To protect the land veins of Wucheng?"

Feng Junzi: "I'm afraid it's not just for protection, but also for self-cultivation.... Look through Teacher Liu's information and see what the masters of the past dynasties have done on this land vein?"

There is no information about Zhengyisan Mountain in the historical records, and Jiulin Temple is the earliest historical site that can be tested.Jiulin Temple was established by Empress Wu Zetian, the exact date is unknown, it is said that it was before she became emperor in Tang Dynasty.When Empress Wu Zetian established the Jiulin Temple, she also named Luxue the God of Zhaoting Mountain according to the local legend in Wucheng. The mountain temple and the statue of the mountain god were built at that time.Another situation that is not recorded in the historical materials but Feng Junzi and I know privately is that the kapok cassock that Wu Zetian obtained from the sixth patriarch of Zen Buddhism, Huineng, was also secretly enshrined in the Jiulin Temple.

The story of Jiulin Temple is not over. Within a few decades, Tang Dynasty national teacher Shan Wuwei led Xuanzong Li Longji's imperial decree to Wucheng to reward the monks of Jiulin Temple, and planted a dragon cypress outside the temple gate.In another legend, Shan Wuwei also went to Zhaoting Mountain.

According to legend, there are thirteen sacred trees left over from the Han Dynasty in Zhaoting Mountain.Shan Wuwei went to Zhaoting and wrote on the trunks with a cinnabar brush. A total of twelve sacred trees were written, only the last tree was not found all over the mountain.After Shan Wuwei left, the twelve sacred trees withered one after another, and the one that was left out at the end, I guess, might be Luxue's original body.

"Why does Shanwuwei do this? Can this legend be true?"

Feng Junzi: "I don't believe this is true, but I heard from Luxue that she was not the only sacred tree in Zhaoting Mountain. I am afraid that the rumors are true. This may not be Shanwuwei's original intention, but Tang Xuanzong's intention. "

"How can the majestic Emperor of the Tang Dynasty care so much about the Jiulin Temple far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and how can he have trouble with the sacred tree on Xiaoxiaozhaoting Mountain?"

Feng Junzi: "This is related to the legend of Wucheng's land veins. I found a strange story in the Mei family's posthumous book - Wucheng's thousand-year-old earth's energy fell, and two dynasties of emperors and a generation of gods emerged."

"It's a bit exaggerated, but there are still some shadows. Wu Zetian changed the name of Tang to Zhou, and Li's surname was changed to Zhou and Tang afterward. Isn't that the emperor of the two dynasties? Who is that generation of gods referring to?"

Feng Junzi shook his head: "I don't know, after all, it happened more than 1000 years ago. There is only such a strange story in the book and it is not explained in detail. If there is such a legend, then the masters of all generations will probably try to intervene to suppress the Wucheng landline .”

"That's right, if the dynasty and the emperor are changed one after another, wouldn't the world be in chaos! The emperor in power certainly doesn't want himself to step down, and the world's masters don't want the people to be in chaos."

Then, according to the information, during the Five Dynasties, at the foot of Zhaoting Mountain, a Guangjiao Temple appeared by the Zhaoting Lake where the dragon veins came out of the mountain and entered the plain.Today, the Living Buddha of Guangjiao Temple is present, and it is a Tantric Yellow Sect temple.However, after examining various historical records, it is impossible to find out which Buddhist temple the Guangjiao Temple was in history. It seems that the temple was established for the purpose of establishing a temple.The most famous thing about Guangjiao Temple is not the temple itself, but a pair of twin towers.This pair of seven-story brick pagodas stands on the bluestone high platform in front of the temple gate. The most strange thing is that the two pagodas have no tops!Like a pair of hollow giant tubes stuck in the ground.

Feng Junzi said to himself: "The pagoda is a Buddhist building. There are many solitary pagodas seen today, but it is actually because the temple under the pagoda has been destroyed. Looking at Guangjiao Temple, I don't think it was because the temple was built. Build a temple for a pagoda."

"What's so special about the twin pagodas of Guangjiao Temple?"

Feng Junzi: "Look at this landline of Wucheng. It comes out of the Jiulian Mountains and enters the plain without any hindrance. Only in front of it is the Jiulin Temple and the temple at Longxiang. The two towers are hit on the ground and the locks are taken. The meaning of the dragon shoulder is to restrain the air of the earth and prevent it from spreading out, just like a lock. It locks the nine hundred miles of land, which is equivalent to restraining the mountains and rivers of the world."

"Is there something wrong?"

Feng Junzi: "The charm of the world lies in the Tao. How can the essence of the land veins be usurped by a single husband? To put it in layman's terms, the change of the emperor is of course a disaster, and it is not a good thing for the country to remain unchanged. This Feng Shui bureau is too reluctant, and sooner or later it will be too late to restrain the country." It collapsed once. So later, the Mei family broke the Feng Shui Bureau and restored the land veins of Wucheng."

"You mean to build the Dragon Head Pagoda at Hashidate, the number one scholar?"

Feng Junzi: "A pond is dug under the Zhuangyuan Bridge to store water, and a tower is erected on Longshou Mountain to hide the wind. It draws out the veins of the earth and gathers the spiritual energy of the mountains and rivers. This Fengshui bureau is no longer a lock or a simple trap, but a meaning of cultivation and vitality. The cave of Zhengyisan Mountain stands at the origin of the terrain of Wucheng, that is, the tail of the dragon vein, and helps the children to practice with the help of the energy that grows between the heaven and the earth. The Jingwu Cave stands at the head of the dragon, where all the spiritual energy of mountains and rivers converges. It is used by the descendants of the Mei family. Doing so is not only beneficial to oneself, but also protects the earth veins from disturbing the world."

"When you say that, I also think the Dragon Head Pagoda is very interesting. I just said that there are pagodas and temples, but the Dragon Head Pagoda is just a pagoda. There has never been a temple record in history. It is not a relic pagoda or a Buddhist scriptures pagoda. , According to you, it is a Fengshui pagoda? The ancestors of the Mei family did things directly."

Feng Junzi: "It's a pity that there are still flaws. After all, manpower can't fight against the heaven and the earth, so there is an eye of the earth left in the Jingwu Cave. It is said that Zhengyisan Mountain and Jingwu Cave were built with the magical effect of the Qingming Mirror. , then using the Qingming Mirror in the Jingwu Cave can still run the Wucheng veins."

"Then using the Qingming Mirror in Zhengyisan Mountain may also touch the earth's veins. Fahai has done this before....I suddenly thought of who the gods of that generation are!"

Feng Junzi: "Who? Why don't I know."

"It's the founder of the Zhengyi sect, and also the ancestor of the Mei clan, the Zhengyi patriarch who refined the Qingming mirror."

Feng Junzi slapped his forehead: "That's right! Why didn't I think of that. He left the Qingming Mirror behind, and asked his descendants to build Zhengyisan Mountain and Jingwu Cave, one after the other to protect Wucheng Nine. Hundreds of miles of land veins, so as not to disturb the world and let the people take it for themselves. This is indeed the cultivation base and great supernatural power achievement of a generation of gods.... Shi Ye, I am afraid that this matter has something to do with you and me."

"Why are you and I involved again? We don't have the opportunity to participate in these major events."

Feng Junzi: "There is another gossip in the Mei family's posthumous book. It is said that the Mei family's land is established. If the geomantic omen does not use human power to inhale the dragon's kiss from the dragon ball after a thousand years, the earth's energy will leak out of the world and then two dynasties will emerge. The emperor and the generation of gods .If I'm not mistaken, the location of Dragon Ball refers to the stone platform in Jingwu Cave, the location of Dragon Kiss is the deep pool under the Zhuangyuan Bridge, and the Fengshui thing is of course the Qingming Mirror... What do you do? Got the Qingming Mirror?"

"I picked it up from under the Zhuangyuan Bridge. It should be picked up from the Jingwu Cave."

Feng Junzi: "That's it! Xuxiu is not human. What's more strange, the dragon veins have been trapped here, and the emperors of these two dynasties and a generation of gods can only come out within a radius of [-] miles from Wucheng."

"Are you a bit alarmist? Now it is a democratic republic society, how can there be any emperor!"

Feng Junzi: "The way of heaven has changed, and the theory of the Son of Heaven is no longer credible. But the gods of that generation are very likely to be found among the masters of practice on this line of land, such as Shouzheng Zhenren, Ge Jujizan Living Buddha, Fahai, and even you And me, or Luxue in Zhaoting Mountain, Qiye who once practiced in Feijin Peak, which one is not a person with supernatural powers and mighty people in the world today? It is not impossible for a generation of gods to emerge from them."

"Don't get involved with me, I'm still far behind."

Feng Junzi: "Now you are still close to success, and it will be okay in time. In fact, if there is really a generation of gods, I hope you are the most, and Qiye is the last."

"Why don't you say it might be yourself? Think about the mystery that Patriarch Zhengyi saw back then, and you see it today too."

Feng Junzi: "There are so many clues left on this vein, and there are so many rumors and classics that can be verified. What's so strange about the problem? I think that Patriarch Zhengyi faced the empty Jiulian Mountains. Wucheng, who has no traces, can see through the secrets of the sky, and has the supernatural powers to surpass the heavens and the earth. Compared with him, I am far behind!"

"In my eyes, you are already amazing. Did you ask Mr. Zhang to read these or did you read them yourself?"

Feng Junzi: "How I dragged Mr. Zhang into the water, of course I saw it myself."

"How many days have you learned Feng Shui with Mr. Zhang?"

Feng Junzi: "It didn't take long, it was just a little fur."

"Then you can speak so eloquently?"

Feng Junzi smiled coyly: "One of the nine gates of Wangqing Palace's Tumen method is to cultivate by using the energy of the earth, so I still have some experience in distinguishing mountains and rivers and geography.... The Qingming mirror has been damaged and cannot operate the earth veins. If there are another hundred and eighty It can be repaired by paying for the refining of the master soul, but I'm afraid it's impossible, even if the world's masters line up, it's not enough!...That's good, so you don't have to worry about it. It's just the words of the gods of that generation. Makes me feel a little uneasy."

"Are you worried about Qiye? I don't understand. I have gone through a lot of hardships in cultivating alchemy, and I have achieved a little success today..."

Junzi Feng interrupted me: "Other people's practice, only he knows. As far as you and I know, Qiye has experienced few disasters in his life? I'm afraid you and I are one of his disasters. This person's temperament He is extreme and persevering, but his aptitude and comprehension are top-notch, which is the advantage and hidden danger of his diligent practice."

I interjected and asked, "Then how do you evaluate what Qiye is doing now?"

Feng Junzi: "Others don't know him. I should understand him—I can only allow myself to do what I want, but I can't allow others to go against me. Although his cultivation is high, he is close to the devil! If he does it alone The devil is nothing, but now he gathers people to start a sect and mistreat his children. Qiye's cultivation level may be able to hide it, but those who follow him will encounter such a mind in the future!"

"How far has Qiye's cultivation reached?"

Feng Junzi: "I heard that he was seriously injured and killed the old man Baochun in one fell swoop, seized the dojo and swallowed the sect to turn things around in a desperate situation. From this, he may have broken through the catastrophe of the sea of ​​bitterness and heaven and man, and reached the realm of Yangshen. I didn't expect that I was in Fusheng Yanzhong sent him a calamity, but instead helped him improve his cultivation.... Ishino, at the Zhengyi Sanshan meeting in the near future, you and I must find a way to get Qiye to attack with all our strength, so that I can know his details today .”

"Zhengyi Sanshan Meeting? Isn't that just a party? You don't need to fight to win the championship. How can you find an excuse to fight Qiye and force him to fight with all his strength? Isn't this causing trouble?"

Feng Junzi smiled: "You don't know the rules of the Zhengyi Sanshan Meeting? I only heard about it recently. In fact, this grand meeting is very interesting and fun. You really can't miss it..."
