I can enlighten everything

Chapter 21 Feng Shui Fortune Telling
The next morning, after breakfast, Dianhua came to Cangshu Pavilion early, and started reading books related to Fengshui and fortune-telling as planned.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but I always feel that today's Qi Mansion seems to be filled with an atmosphere of anxiety, and even Qing He is faintly in a trance and out of state.

Last night, Dianhua went to bed early and had a good sleep quality. Naturally, he didn't hear the chirping of the eagle. Even if he heard the chirping of the eagle when he woke up, he didn't know the reason why he didn't know what happened.

There are not many people in the Qi Mansion who know what the hawk means, but those who know are the masters or the high-level servants in the mansion. If the higher-ups are anxious, the servants and servants will naturally be affected and feel uneasy.

The anxious and restless atmosphere in the Qi Mansion was slowly and imperceptibly created in just one morning.

'The atmosphere of the Qi Mansion represents the atmosphere of the masters of the Qi Mansion. '

'Are the masters of Qi Mansion anxious? '

Dianhua's heart to leave Qi's mansion became more urgent.

No matter how urgent he is, he doesn't need to read other books, but he still needs to read books on Feng Shui and fortune-telling. This is a major matter related to his enlightenment.

Dianhua already had experience, and soon found books on theories such as the history of Feng Shui evolution.

""Feng Shui Theory", written by Qi Hong. The formation and evolution of the art of Feng Shui."

'Is it Qi Hong again?It seems that Qi Hong is an expert and scholar in evolution theory in Jishui Qi Clan! '

'Since it is the work of experts and scholars, let it be! '

After choosing the books to borrow, Dianhua began to read them carefully.

The format is the same as "Yan Wu Lun", and the commonly used words are also the same, which makes Dianhua read a lot more smoothly. After reading it once, I have a certain understanding of the "feng shui" of this world.

When it comes to Feng Shui, Taoist priests have to be mentioned.

What is the origin of Taoist priests?
Translated in Dianhua's words, Taoist priests were a branch of the gentry during the slave society.

The slave society is divided into three classes, princes and nobles, gentry and slaves.

The gentry is an elite class that serves the princes and nobles.

The gentry is divided into two categories: warriors and scribes. Warriors include: swordsmen, archers, gunmen, knights, guards, and so on.

Scribes are divided into assistants, calculators, recorders, administrators and so on.

Some special gentry can be classified as warriors and scribes at the same time because of their special work.

Taoist priests are such a special gentry who are both warriors and scribes.

Taoist priests work in Taoist temples, which are generally built on hills beside rivers near towns.

Taoist temples are like beacon towers, and Taoist priests work like soldiers stationed on beacon towers.

It's just that the Taoist temple is different from the beacon tower. The Taoist temple warns not of war, but of forest fires and river bursts.

Since ancient times, water and fire have been merciless, and the princes and nobles in the slave society also attached great importance to these things, and even set up a special family of Taoists to serve them and warn wildfires and floods.

The gentry in the slave society are all inherited from the family, so the Taoist priests in the early and middle period of the slave society have been continuously passed on in the Taoist family and have never been cut off.

Scholars and other gentry are literate, and most of them like to keep recording the experience and wisdom in life and work, so as to increase the heritage of family inheritance.Therefore, the family inheritance of the gentry who worked in different functions also has obvious characteristics and is highly professional.

As the slave society reached the middle stage and the slave civilization reached its peak, Taoist priests from all over the world kept reminding them of forest fires and floods for thousands of years, and they were constantly deified by ignorant slaves.

With the continuous development of the territories of various princes, the number of slaves continued to increase, and the status of slaves also continued to improve. Serfs, artisan slaves, and other slaves who could have their own private houses appeared.

When some slaves were building houses that were very important to them, they would invite deified Taoist priests to come and ask where it was suitable to build a house and how to build it, so that the house would be peaceful and free of water.

And if there is a problem with the family who did not invite the Taoist priest, the Taoist priest will be invited to see where the problem has occurred, in order to correct it, so that these problems will no longer occur.

In this way, Taoist priests have the function of "watching Fengshui" subtly.

The gentry has no fiefdoms, only the inheritance of duties and the corresponding knowledge inheritance. It is an elite class with a strong sense of responsibility.

The gentry characteristics of job inheritance means that the expansion of job scope means the expansion of power and family heritage, similar to the expansion of aristocratic fiefdoms, no gentry would dislike it.

Therefore, when Taoist priests are given new functions by people, what they think about is not to shirk, but how to be competent for it.In order to be competent for this function, Taoist priests began to branch out from the experience of viewing mountains and waters passed down by the family, related Fengshui techniques such as housing and urban construction.

Qi Hong finally concluded: The art of Feng Shui is not mysterious, it is only based on the local climate, geography and human environment, the reasonable planning of residential layout, effective prevention and avoidance of residential problems such as easy to get sick, easy to leak water and so on.

"According to Mr. Qi Hong, Feng Shui is the early geography and architecture?"

If the extraordinary power is excluded, it is reasonable.

After Dianhua returned "Feng Shui Lun", he borrowed Qi Hong's "Fortune Telling Theory" again.

Fortune-telling is the second deified function bestowed by people on Taoist priests after Fengshui.

The slaves are so ignorant that they think that since Taoist priests can see whether the fate of a house is good or not and can modify the fate of a bad house, they can see whether the fate of a person is good or not and can modify the fate of a person.

So when people encounter a turning point in their fate or are confused, they will think of Taoist priests and go to Taoist temples to ask Taoist priests for advice.

There are many people who think this way, and there are many people who do this, Taoist priests are naturally endowed with the second deified function, fortune-telling.

In order to be competent for this newly added function, Taoist priests specially extracted and sorted out relevant records about people from the feng shui techniques passed down by the family, and then summed up several corresponding laws, and then continuously accumulated experience in the process of fortune-telling. The slow fortune-telling technique took shape and became the second deified inheritance and function of Taoist priests.

"In other words, fortune-telling is early sociology and psychology?"

Qi Hong sighed at the end: "Different from the princes, the Taoist families who have been fighting against forest fires and floods know the dangers of nature and the insignificance of human beings. Most of them have extremely broad minds and do not know how to cherish themselves. Other Taoist families exchange and learn about family inheritance.”

"As a result, the Taoist temple has gradually become a family-based academy where the children of other Taoist families come to learn and communicate."

"After the transformation of Taoist temples into the functions of colleges, Taoists have grown rapidly. Whether it is martial arts, feng shui, fortune-telling, or their special cultural inheritance, unified Taoist terminology, unified Taoist system, Taoist names, and Taoist names Wait, they were all born during this period.”

"The belief that 'Taoist priests in the world are one family, and Taoist temples in various places are the same' that is now feared by the major families was also established during this period."
