"The celestial phenomena are called the art of embellishment."

"The internal calculation takes Hunyuan as the core, and the external calculation takes subdivision as the principle. Both have their own strengths, but they are like going in the opposite direction. Even if they can end up with the same goal, they cannot be confused for the time being, and they need to have their own understanding."

"Kuafu chases the sun, uses the gui to measure the shadows to obtain the 'sky drooping elephant', and determines the Tai Chi division of yin and yang."

"Fuxi painted the hexagram and used the River Map and Luoshu to evolve the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, so the great way was settled and the heaven and earth were opened up."

"If you ask me why there are yin and yang fish in Tai Chi, then you must first understand that the trajectory of the sun and the moon is not determined simply by speed. You must know that there are five elements in the four seasons."

"When we know this, let's go to stargazing again."

"Look at these 'Heavenly Episodes' after the 'Sage', and what are the signs that can be confirmed."

The old teacher Dundu's teachings are indecent. Although Zhang Zhixiang has some inherent concepts created by modern science, he also feels like he has opened up a new world, and he feels suddenly enlightened.

This night.

The old master pointed to the starry sky and told him the four seasons and five elements, wood, fire, earth, metal and water. In the starry sky, these five stars will appear in the North Pole sky in this order, and each star will travel for 72 days.

Therefore, in ancient times, there were five seasons, October, and 36 days a month. There were 360 ​​days a year, and the remaining 5 or 6 days to celebrate the New Year.

Mercury appears in the north at the hour of the 1st and 6th day of the month (1st, 1st, 11th, 16th, 21st, 26th day), and the sun and the moon meet in the north. Mercury can be seen in the north every January, June, and dusk.

Mars is two and seven.

Jupiter is three and eight.

Venus is four and nine.

Saturn is five or ten.

Therefore, it is said that: Heaven produces water, and the earth completes it; Heaven produces fire, and the earth completes it; Heaven produces wood, and the earth completes it; Heaven produces metal, and the earth completes it; Heaven produces earth, and the earth completes it; Heaven produces earth, and the earth completes it.

The river map was drawn like this.

The river map records the changes in the starry sky, while the so-called dragon and horse bearing map is the "elephant of the sky". The old master said that in the Guagou north of Luoyang City, if the river water drys up and looks like a river bed, it will be a blue dragon map.

And the image of the dragon head is another horse...

The dragon and horse are not a kind of creature, but a dragon and a horse. Just as Zhang Baichuan once analyzed the feather snake god, it is not a feather snake, but a feather and a snake...

Anyway.

The shape of the Guagou is exactly the same as the seven constellations of the Canglong Dragon in the sky. The dragon and horse are in the back of the map. The heaven and earth gather at this moment, and the fate is so wonderful.

The sky hangs on the elephant, and the saints follow it.

Therefore, the starry sky was recorded and believed that there was a great road above the sky that could guide civilization forward, so the river map was drawn, 1, 6, 2, 7, 3, 8, 4, 9, 5, 10 in the north.

Odd numbers are yang, even numbers are yin.

Therefore, there is yin and yang in the center, the road rotates on the left, 5 means yang on the left, 10 means yin on the right, Tai Chi has more yin and yang fish... It is also Tai Chi Yin and yang that can explain why there are five elements in the four seasons.

This night, the old master talked a lot.

But the sentence that impressed Zhang Zhi the most was: "The River Map is indeed a catalog of the Great Dao, but what I want you to remember is not this picture, but the thing that 'the sky hangs on the elephant, the saint is the way'."

...

Tai Chi, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Eight Trigrams, Heavenly Stems, Earthly Branches, and Zhang Zhixiang has a lot to learn. Tonight is just the beginning. It is said that cultivating immortals is to go against the heavens. So, you have to understand what the way of heaven is to go against the heavens first, right?

But after tonight, the old master stopped teaching.

As he taught too much, the flowers became more charming and could not see the great way, so he didn't teach him anything, just let him look at the stars before going to bed at night.

The dead are like this, never leaving the day and night.

Two or three months passed in a flash, and tomorrow will be March 3rd, and March 3rd is Xuanyuan.

It is Shangsi Festival.

Although the Shangsi Festival has been no longer valued since the Song and Yuan dynasties, there is still the custom of going outings, which is a good time to travel.

Worried that no one would take care of Zhang Zhixiang on the road, Zhang Fu asked Yushui to accompany him on the road.

The Tianshi Mansion was led by the old Tianshi's nephew, Zhang Yonghuan, and Da Fangfeng was also accompanied by the guards. There were only four people in the group, so there was no chance of any mistake.

Resign to the Master before departure.

After the old master told Zhang Yonghuan a few words, he looked at Zhang Zhixiang for a while and suddenly said, "The mountain is not as good as the mountain. I'll teach you a Taoist method."

"ah?"

Zhang Zhixiang did not expect that his senior brother would not even talk about the great knowledge of the Tao these days, but now he is willing to teach his own magic. However, he has not started practicing at all. Without true energy, how can he use it?

As if he saw Zhang Zhixiang's concern, the old master smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's just a magical mantra, and it will be effective if it is recited."

"oh."

Zhang Zhixiang nodded silly, but the old master was very satisfied. He did not teach Zhang Zhixiang how to read, but stretched out his fingers, and a little golden light hit his eyebrows. In an instant, the room was so golden that people couldn't open their eyes...

"The Xuanzong of Heaven and Earth is the root of all qi."

"Inside and outside the three realms, only Taoism is the only one who is respected."

"Cultivate a billion kalpas to prove my supernatural powers."

"There is a golden light in the body, covering my body."

...

The carriage had already set off, and Zhang Zhixiang was sitting in the carriage, still muttering the golden light curse, but the situation of the radiant radiance never happened again. Sure enough, different people use the same magic differently...

"Young Master, what are you thinking about?"

"Spell."

"Ah! The young master knows magic?"

"That's right..."

"Young master, please help the master and his wife pray for blessings."

"Oh well."

Zhang Yonghuan sat on the car frame and drove. Listening to the conversation between the uncle and the maid, he couldn't help but smile. The golden light curse was not used for blessings.

Continue driving.

Zhang Yonghuan glanced at the big windbreaker that could keep up with the carriage by taking a casual step beside the carriage. His size was really powerful. He was now wearing a white tiger-skinned cloak, carrying a three-meter-long black iron overlord gun, and two seven-star slashing sabers on his waist.

It is quite majestic, but how can I take the boat later...

The best route to Shuntian Prefecture from Longhu Mountain is to take Poyang Lake, arrive at Yingtian Prefecture by water, and then go north along the canal.

There is a tributary of Xinjiang River in Poyang Lake that passes through Guixi County in the north. The straight line distance from Zhangjia Village to Xinjiang is only more than 30 miles, and the nearest ferry is fifty miles. You can drive to arrive at dusk.

I found a friend at the ferry, gave me two cents of silver, and asked me to send the carriage back to Zhangjia Village.

There is no contract, and there is no guarantee. He just handed over the silver and carriage so openly. In later generations, a strange transaction is normal at present.

Nowadays, things are about faith and righteousness.

Due to household registration, road induction and other factors, the population movement is not large and the reputation in the local area is bad, so it will be difficult to survive.

Xinjiang is about 80 meters wide and does not have much momentum. A person who can swim hard and can swim to the other side in only two minutes. There are not many big ships on the river, and most of the passengers are black-sailed boats.

But as the ferry in Guixi County, there were merchant ships heading north.

The size of the big wind could not take the black-sailed boat, so Zhang Yonghuan found a merchant ship loading. The manager asked about the origin and learned that it was a Taoist priest from the Tianshi Mansion, so he agreed to take them with him.

Not only did it not charge, it was also served with delicious food and drinks.

Perhaps the name of the Tianshi Mansion is more because of the face of Da Fangfeng. Businesses may not be safe these days. With such an unparalleled general, I believe that the water bandits are not afraid of coming.

A room was arranged on the boat, but Zhang Zhixiang did not enter the room to rest.

Instead, I stood on the deck and watched the workers at the dock fly away from the five-foot-wide pedal with their goods. Some people were already very tired and were shaking their walks, but they were still continuing...
Chapter completed!
