Chapter 51 Locking the Dragon Pillar
Feng Shui divides everything in the universe into three parts, namely qi, number and phenomenon. These three complement each other and coexist and cannot be separated, but the boundaries are clear. The commonly said "qi has been exhausted" describes a person who is in danger of life, about to die or has no vitality. In fact, this sentence originally comes from Feng Shui theory. For example, the thatched house in front of him is like "qi" and "number" and "number" are over, and it is really called "qi has been exhausted".
This situation is most likely because someone used to use his hands and feet, cut off the dragon energy, and locked the dragon veins, which would lead to the yin and yang imbalance in this place and the loss of anger. People who can do such exquisite methods are definitely not something that ordinary Fengshu can do. It is very likely that the masters in the "Si Tianjian" were the works of those great figures. As for which dynasty and which generation of experts were done, it is hard to say.
To achieve this level, you are definitely a master among experts. You need extremely accurate calculations and inspections to measure the node where the dragon vein's qi flows. Jin Er blocks the qi here and breaks the line to make the overall paralysis.
The three of us kept checking around the room, but we couldn't see any other suspicious places. However, in such a large open space, we could build a small grassy house on the node of a dragon vein and had the ability to break the dragon vein. This matter did not seem like a coincidence.
"Brother Hu, come and see here." Liu Ye suddenly called me and Daya and I, then, from behind the room, returned to the front of the room.
Liu Ye pointed at the horse-tie stake in front of the door and asked Daya and I to take a closer look. Do you think something is wrong?
Big teeth stretched out their necks and looked at them, shook their heads: "Girl, what are you saying? Isn't this just a horse tying stake! In the past, rich families used to tie mules and stone stakes for horses. What's the good looking thing about this? Some of these things are there."
The horse-tie pile was a practical object for wealthy families such as wealthy gentry and wealthy families in the old days. It was also a symbol of wealth. It implies the status of this family, the host and guest were graceful and riding horses. The horse-tie pile in front of me was about two meters and five meters high, and was about thirty centimeters square. The stone pile head had a round carved lion with a mane upright towards the sky, like a flame flashing. The legs were short and curved, and the body twisted exaggeratedly. The thick eyebrows were protruding, the eyes of copper bells, the eyes of a wide nose, and the ribbon was held. A large copper bell was hung under the collar. One foot was stepping on a ball, one leg supported the body, and the back half of the body was squatting on the ground, with a vivid appearance.
The pedestal that supports the head of the pile, that is, the neck of the pile, is round and below, and there are some patterns of beasts such as lions, tigers, and unicorns on it. There are many branches, water rolls, clouds, and water patterns around the pile body. The mottled pile body is full of such exquisite patterns, which is very incompatible with the simple thatched house next to it, and is a bit out of place. It is called "grid road" in Northeastern dialect.
While carefully cleaning the frozen soil on the pile, Liuye told Daya that she knew that this was a horse tying pile. She wanted to say that the patterns carved on the neck of the pile were strange, and this pattern was different from those carved on the ordinary horse tying pile. Most of the patterns carved on the neck of the ordinary horse tying pile were carved with lotus petals, deer, horse, bird, rabbit, clouds and water, ribbons, Bogu and other patterns. No such beast was carved.
After hearing what Liu Ye said, Daya looked at it again curiously, but she was just watching the fun and didn't understand these things at all.
In fact, the function of tying a horse stud is not only tying mules and tying horses, but also tying another function, which is to "keep the house".
Horse-tie piles are generally placed on two sides of the gate. Most houses face north and south. When the door is opened in the south, the horse-tie piles will stand on the right side of the gate. The door is the hub of "energy". Harmony leads to good fortune, and taking advantage of the energy leads to evil. In the minds of the ancients, stones have supernatural divine power. In a sense, this stone pile is equivalent to "the stone of Mount Tai dares to be the one". If it stands on a bad position, it can avoid evil evil. It is said that "the mountain of Mount Tai is pressing on the top, and hundreds of ghosts are peaceful."
Liuye and Daya know too much about these things. I did not study the patterns carved on the stone stake like they did. Instead, I thought in silence, stretched out my left hand, and used the "Dimu Gua Zhang Jue" to deduce the good and bad luck of the direction of the stone stake. This method of deduction seems simple, but it is actually obscure and difficult to understand. I just know the reason, but I don't know why, and at least it can be argued.
The door of this thatched house opens to the north, the Kan position in the north, the northwest gan position is the "six evil spirits second bad", and the northeast Gen position is the "five ghosts most bad". In this case, if you want to set up stone piles to defend the house, you must have one stone pile symmetrically on the left and right to suppress evil spirits. But now there is only one stone pile, which is just right and wrong, and it stands in front of the door, which is obviously very unruly.
Even if ordinary people don’t understand Feng Shui, they would not stand a horse-tie stake in the middle of the door. Moreover, this thatched house itself is extremely not simple. It is obviously arranged by experts. If this is the case, it is impossible for the horse-tie stake to be done casually and buried here randomly.
Just as I was thinking about these things, the willow leaves next to me pointed at the stone stake and told me and Daya that from the style of the stone stake pattern, it can be seen that this horse-tethered stake should be from the Ming Dynasty, because the dragon pattern in the Ming Dynasty is very different from the dragon pattern in other eras. The hair on the head of the dragon pattern in the Ming Dynasty is straightened, and the dragon whiskers are rolled inside and out, which is easy to identify.
The Ming Dynasty? If it were from the Ming Dynasty, then it has a history of at least 300 years. However, this house cannot exceed 300 years. Then the stone stake and this thatched house should not be from the same period. It is obvious that this stone stake was found before this thatched house, and this thatched house was built later.
Thinking of this, I finally realized it and suddenly realized it. I couldn't help but pat my big teeth and Liuye's shoulders excitedly, telling them that I finally figured it out that this stone stake had existed before the thatched hut. The thatched hut was just a purpose-built next to the pile. This stone stake was not an ordinary horse-tie pile at all, but a "dragon locking pillar"!
"Dragon Locking Pillar?" Liu Ye and Da Ya were both a little surprised.
I nodded and told them that at my level, even though I knew that this place was a lonely yin land, I could not find the exact location of the Fengshui cave here. Throughout history, there have been very few masters who can accurately point Fengshui caves. More Fengshui masters just try to find a similar Fengshui treasure land in the area close to the Fengshui cave, and it is considered that the task is complete.
I didn't expect that I accidentally encountered a place today. It was really a blind cat who encountered a dead mouse! If I had a good estimate, the location under the nail of this stone stake is the "Feng Shui Point". This stone pillar is called the "Dragon Locking Pillar" in Feng Shui. It is said that it is a method to destroy the dragon veins.
After I finished explaining, Liu Ye and Daya touched the stone stake again, half-believing and half-doubting, they were all confused.
I have been standing outside for too long, probably for more than an hour. I’ve worn more clothes on my body, but my feet have been frozen wood long ago, and the soles of my feet are like I’ve stepped on in ice water, and I have no sense of it.
Seeing that the matter was not explained in one sentence or two, I brought the door again and hung the lock symbolically. Seeing that the handling was almost done, I asked Daya and Liuye to go home to warm up first. This matter must be discussed for a long time.
The speed of going back was much faster than when I came. I almost ran around and ran back to my residence without much rest.
After dinner, the three of us sat around a kang and began to summarize the things that happened during this period.
It has been more than half a month since I returned to the Northeast. Now the Spring Festival is coming. Although things have not yet been revealed, the progress to this point should be considered a reward.
I just didn't expect that this trip to the Northeast would go through so many things, and I didn't expect that this matter was so complicated. It seems that we had underestimated this matter too much and obviously looked down upon it. So far, this mystery has only been the first clue.
Although the clue we are going to investigate is the Seventh Duke of Xingdi, we finally found that the spearhead was the Nurhaci family. From the unification of the Jurchens and establishing the Later Jin regime, until he suddenly died, then Huang Taiji ascended the throne and called Khan, the open and secret struggles between Mangurtai and Huang Taiji were closely related to the Seventh Duke of Xingdi. Perhaps it was precisely because of the secret behind this bead that Seventh Duke of Xingdi also caused trouble one after another.
The weed hut in the lonely yin land, the dragon locking pillars hundreds of years ago, and the weird black cats, we can't settle anything at will, and we don't even know where to start.
We have been running around continuously during this period of time and working hard. We are already exhausted in both body and spirit.
The clue seemed to be suspended when it reached this weed hut. We also know that the house was unusual and there must be something strange about it. But at the moment, the "solar yin land" and "dragon locking pillar" could not think of any good solutions at the moment, and I was really powerless for the time being.
The three of us sat on the kang and chatted until the middle of the night. Finally, we decided to go home and celebrate the Spring Festival first, and then talk about it after a while. As for what to do next, whether it is necessary to persevere, we all calm down and think about it carefully. After all, everyone has their own job and their own life, not an archaeological team or an adventure team. Whether such a desperate thing is worth taking risks is also worthy of our risk.
Early the next morning, we said goodbye to the villagers one after another, and we sat down at home and chatted with each other, and the morning passed like this.
Before leaving, we secretly put some money under the kang cabinets of Lao Gutou and Lao Mengtou's houses. It was somewhat our wish. After all, we had to eat and live here for free without any relatives and no reason, which made people feel bad. It was not until the sun set in the afternoon that our so-called Chinese folk culture group left the village.
