Chapter 7 The Divine Trigram
The usual way to explain the hexagrams from the Plum Blossom Yi Count is wrong, but the result proves to be right!
Is there any problem with the method of solving the hexagrams in Plum Blossom Yi Number?
It cannot be said that all methods of fortune-telling are basically established according to the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams in the Book of Changes. The Five Elements and Eight Trigrams are patterns. What rules are established to interpret the hexagrams? It is a matter of opinion. Plum Blossom Yi numbers are just one of the commonly used methods, just an interpretation of the hexagrams.
If fortune-telling is about peeping at the secrets of heaven, then the secrets are actually hidden in the five elements and eight trigrams arranged in some way. Different people who interpret the hexagrams and use different methods, the conclusions they draw are likely to be different. It depends on who can get closer to the original intention of the secrets, so that the hexagram will be accurate.
Will the hexagram prompts flashing in my mind be the display of the secret of heaven? Are you reminding me that I should think about this?
When Yi Xingchen thought of this possibility, he was immediately excited. If this was the case, it would be like God who gave him a golden finger to explain the hexagram!
Although the hexagram flashes and cannot directly tell him good or bad luck, I can rely on the number of plum blossoms I learned to deduce it, and narrow the range to the content displayed by one hexagram. Then I will take a big step forward compared to other people who interpret the hexagram and win at the starting line!
Yi Xingchen couldn't help but feel excited and blood rushing all over his body.
Then he thought again that in addition to one of the three-dimensional hexagrams flashing, the color of the three-dimensional hexagrams in his mind is also different from that of other hexagrams. What's going on?
There are six hexagrams in my mind, and the fifth one is gray, and only the flashing one is blue. What does this mean?
Will it be prompted that the result of the divination is a little evil?
He is not sure yet.
What he wants to know more now is whether the three-dimensional flashing color-changing hexagram in his mind will appear again.
At this time, the fat man was already sitting down on the long stool next to the stall.
Gongsun He quickly stroked his goatee beard and asked with a smile: "Keep, what do you want to divine?"
The fat man scratched his head and said, "I didn't go home last night. I had something to do outside for a day and I only went home at this time. Do you think about it for me. After I go home, will my wife cause trouble for me? Will she argue with me and make me feel at ease?"
When the fat man heard that he calculated this, the onlookers couldn't help but laugh. The fat man was very embarrassed.
Gongsun He smiled and nodded, saying, "Then the guest officer first grab three pinches of rice from the bowl and put them on the plate. I will give the guest official a divination to know the good or bad luck."
The fat man grabbed three small handfuls of rice from the bowl and put them on the plate. Gongsun He recorded the number, looked at the sun again, calculated with his fingers, and listed the hexagrams.
He stroked his beard and smiled and nodded, "The hexagram representing your body and the hexagram representing your wife are both Zhenmu hexagrams, which are called Bihe (some books are also called Bizhu). It is used to make a fortune to tell whether the house is safe and the host is very lucky. Therefore, after you return home, you can ensure that everything is safe and smooth. Your wife is very kind and talks to you and will not cause you any trouble. Don't worry."
The fat man couldn't help but be overjoyed and looked at Gongsun He: "Be serious about this? My wife is a famous tigress. I have delayed something today, so I went home late. According to the past habit, she would not spare me. She was so obedient and wouldn't cause trouble for me?"
When Gongsun He heard this, he felt a little regretful.
He did interpret it according to the hexagram, but as he said just now, this woman was a tigress, and the man looked fat and strong, but unexpectedly he was a little afraid. If he observed his words and expressions, he should have decided that he would encounter trouble after he went back, and his wife would make trouble for him. However, he never knew how to make changes in fortune telling. He just told him directly from the hexagram, and would not observe the words and expressions to adapt to the other party's inferences, and said things that violated the hexagram. Even if the result proves that the hexagram is not accurate, he would still do this.
Because whether the hexagram is accurate is affected by many interference factors. Not every hexagram will be analyzed and explained strictly according to the hexagram. This is a summary of his decades of experience. Many fortune tellers will cliché, think about the psychology of the fortune teller to accommodate the other party, please please the other party, or deliberately intimidate the other party, everything is for making money. Gongsun He is not like this. He is just an honest person and can only explain according to the hexagram, so his business is bleak and poor.
The regret just now flashed, and Gongsun He immediately returned to his usual practice. He nodded with certainty and said, "That's what the hexagram says."
The fat man happily slapped his thigh and said, "That's true, then I'll feel relieved, thank you." After that, he stood up, bowed his hand, turned around and left.
Aunt Liu next to him had already poured a pick of vegetables on the open space beside Gongsun He, packed it up, carried an empty basket, and prepared to rush home.
She looked at the colorful clouds in the sky and smiled bitterly and said to Gongsun He: "Sir, you have caused me a lot of trouble. For the sake of this five cents, I have to wait until now. When I go home, I have to pass through a large cemetery. Otherwise, you can tell me another fortune to see if I am safe when I go back, and if I encounter ghosts when I pass by the cemetery?"
Gongsun He curled his lips and said, "Aren't you rightly scolding me? Why bother to let me calculate for you?"
"You are not going to be overwhelmed, can I ask your apprentice to calculate it for me? - Gua'er, please help the aunt calculate, will you encounter ghosts when passing by the cemetery?" Aunt Liu said to Yi Xingchen with a smile.
Yi Xingchen glanced at the master, saw that his master had no expression on his face and did not object, so he said, "I can't do good at fortune-telling, I can't figure it out."
"It's okay, I know you're just an apprentice. Even if you can't calculate correctly, I won't cause trouble for you. Just think you're practicing your hands and feet."
Yi Xingchen said: "Okay, then you pick up rice!"
Aunt Liu grabbed three small handfuls of rice and placed them on a plate.
After Yi Xingchen saw it clearly, he looked up at the hour again. He calculated his fingers and was about to draw it on the paper.
Suddenly, just like the last time, six three-dimensional hexagrams appeared in his mind again. One of them was flashing constantly!
Yi Xingchen was both surprised and happy, but after seeing the hexagram in his mind, he couldn't help but be surprised and said to Aunt Liu: "Aunt Liu, if you have relatives in your city, it's best not to leave tonight. Because you will encounter unclean things on the road and may be scared to death."
Aunt Liu was shocked and said, "You kid, don't scare the aunt!"
"I'm talking about it based on the hexagram. - The body hexagram represents your body hexagram is Kun Tu hexagram. Kun has the meaning of an old woman, which just matches your identity, which means that the hexagram is very accurate. The hexagram representing divination is Zhenmu hexagram. Zhen hexagram represents fright, and the two mutual hexagrams representing the process are Kun, Kun is the hexagram of full Yin, representing Yin people, which means that you will encounter unclean things on the way and be frightened."
When he heard this, Aunt Liu's face changed color and she smiled forcibly and said, "Really? Don't scare Aunt Liu, Aunt Liu is very brave."
The black light flashed in Yi Xingchen's mind, which shocked him. He didn't know what the color flashed represents, but he had a subconscious feeling that the result of this color was very bad. He still had a good impression of this straightforward vegetable farmer, so he said sincerely: "Aunt Liu, I said it according to the hexagram, and I don't know if it is accurate or not, so I will provide you with a reference. However, this kind of thing is better to believe in it. Since you are divining the hexagram, you should follow the hexagram to avoid bad things as much as possible. If you have relatives in the city, don't leave."
Aunt Liu smiled bitterly and said, "Where do I have any relatives in the city? If we are poor people like us, we can only sleep on the streets if we don't go home. I don't have the money to live in the inn and I can't bear to live there, so I have to go back. Okay, thank you little brother, I will be careful."
After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she carried a squeak and walked quickly towards the city gate.
Yi Xingchen hurriedly followed a few steps and said, "Aunt Liu, if you insist on leaving, I will give you two suggestions: First, the hexagram on your hexagram belongs to the Zhenmu hexagram, which represents bamboo forests and places with lush grass and trees. You may be frightened in such places, so you must be careful when passing by bamboo forests and places with lush grass and trees."
"Bamboo forest?" Aunt Liu smiled, "That's right, there is a large bamboo forest in the cemetery, with the thatched grass very high and dense. - Gua'er, have you been to our village? No, I haven't told you which village I am from."
