Chapter 18: Exploring the Sea and Watching the South Dragon
The dense reefs around the coral spiral are like a natural barrier. When the tide reaches the lowest point, half of it will appear. When the tide rises, it will be completely submerged under the water, blocking the way for treasure hunters. Big boats cannot pass, but small boats can pass.
It doesn't matter, so the sea area behind the reef group is still mysterious and unknown in the eyes of the world. Uncle Ming and Ruan Hei both know the nature of the wind and water, and can make the "Trident" jump over the reefs one after another with the help of the tide.
, but the needle is lost among the reefs, and the ocean current and wind direction are mixed and difficult to distinguish. If you want to travel for several sea miles without knowing the direction, it will be difficult to reach the sky. This is like letting an excellent sprinter blindfold his eyes.
When participating in a 100-meter sprint race, even if he doesn't fall into pieces and eat mud, he will at most circle in circles and never reach the finish line.
Therefore, everyone's hopes are pinned on the mountain-moving armor technique left by Taoist Banshan. As long as there is a direction as a reference, when the tide rises, they can cross the sea to collect eggs. Under everyone's gaze, they see Shirley
Yang calmly took out a few things and opened the wooden box first. Inside the wooden box was a glass vase wrapped in red satin. The vase had a large, transparent body and was as thin as a cicada's wing. There was a pill soaked in water in the vase.
The light was so clear and extremely dazzling that it was only the size of a small fingernail. Uncle Ming and others did not know what it was and felt a little confused.
Another pitch-black earthen jar was taken out from Shirley Yang. There were several small fishes raised in clear water inside. The fish were only one finger long, with huge heads and red bodies. They looked strange and swam happily in the earthen jar.
She carefully fished out a small fish and put it in the bottle, then put the bottle in the box and fixed it with soft satin. The small fish circled around the pill a few times in the bottle, and then started to push it to the side, no matter what.
No matter how the water in the bottle shakes, the small fish will try its best to push the pill to a fixed position.
Everyone looked at it with eyes wide open and wanted to ask what the meaning of this was? I explained to them: "This is the Si Tianyu of Taoist Bishan. Whichever direction this fish pushes the Taiyin Scatter to, that direction is due east."
Tried and tested, although you can't see the Big Dipper when you look up, you can see the Sky Fish when you look down. With it pointing out the direction for us, what else do you have to worry about?"
Banshan Taoist has lived along the coast of Jiangsu and Zhejiang for a long time, constantly looking for Muchen Beads in ancient tombs in various places. He also wanted to cross the sea to avoid the disaster of bottomless ghost caves, and also searched for elixirs from fairy mountains on the sea. Over the long years, he created a unique set of alchemy techniques.
, later generations called it "moving mountains and dividing armor". The art of moving mountains and reclaiming seas not only includes the method of searching for treasures and digging graves, but also includes the methods and secret recipes for restraining the creation of stars, earth, clouds and creatures.
The sense of direction is what all human actions must rely on. In Feng Shui alone, the most important dragons, sand, caves, and water are all inseparable from a "direction." Without the guidance of direction, it is impossible to divide gold and determine acupoints.
.In the earliest times, people used the sun, moon and stars to confirm their orientation. Later, when they learned that there was a large Cishan Mountain underground, they invented the Sinan, which later gradually evolved into a more accurate compass. After the feng shui of the Xiangxiang sect was perfected in the Ming Dynasty, looking for the dragon on the ground
The Kanyu compass has also evolved to the extreme. The compass must be marked with Yin and Yang, Tai Chi, Five Elements and Bagua, Heluo Ertu, Najia, Nine Stars, Twenty-eight Constellations, Twenty-four Solar Terms, Twelve Palaces, Twenty-four Mountains, Sixty Years.
Dragons and so on, the minimum has more than three layers, and the most can reach more than forty layers. The most important three stitches on the plate are "front, seam, and center".
The principle of positioning with a compass in ancient times is inseparable from geomagnetism. It is believed that magnets and needles are the way of mother and child. However, in some special occasions, when the compass loses its effectiveness, the only way to use it is to use Si Tianyu. The method of using Si Tianyu is:
It was originally hidden in the tomb of King Yu Sitian. It has been lost in the world. It was occasionally obtained by Taoist Banshan. The so-called "Taiyin Powder" is actually the antiseptic pill contained in the mouth of the tomb owner, which contains the essence of Taiyin. The dead body had this in his mouth.
Even if things are exposed to the sun for several months, they will not rot or stink until the essence of lunar elixir in the pills is gone. The art of alchemy flourished during the Qin and Han Dynasties, but began to decline in the late Song Dynasty. This kind of pills
The recipe is nowhere to be found.
Taoist Banshan soaked it in special potion, which can re-gather the yin essence in the elixir. The moon belongs to Taiyin. When placed in a glass cup, it will be like a bright moon on a plate. Si Tianyu is born with the nature of corresponding to the moon. If it sees something clear and bright, it will definitely
Swimming out from the west, the fish head faces east to absorb the essence of the twelfth lunar month. This is the natural physical property. It is not disturbed by external factors, and the fish head always faces east naturally.
If it is a big Sitian fish shaped like a boat, it will spit out pearls to win glory when the moon is extremely clear. However, this is just a legend in the tomb of King Yu Sitian. The largest Sitian fish that can be found today is no more than the length of an adult’s index finger.
When the compass fails and the stars and moon are missing, using the fish head of the little Skyfish as a reference, although it may not be accurate, will never let the ship get lost in circles at sea.
In addition, Shirley Yang also has "Kui Xingpan" as a supplement. It is said that Kuixing is "the first dragon among the nine-nine stars". In ancient astrology, "Kui" is the first star of the Big Dipper, which can be called the leader of the Nine Palaces. This star is in the sky.
The master of all spirits; on earth, he is the weigher of hundreds of meridians. The Kuixing is also the Greedy Wolf Star. Legend has it that Greedy Wolf Star has an ugly appearance, with a protruding face and fangs. The Kuixing Plate was also dug out from the ancient Sitian tomb by Taoist Banshan.
The secret weapon is equivalent to a small Feng Shui astronomical disk, which is immune to interference from the heavens, geomagnetism and electromagnetism. The ancients believed that heaven, earth and man are a whole, and they can use the subtle changes in the atmosphere between the mountains and the sea to observe the stars and weigh hundreds of thousands of stars.
Although Taoist Banshan Taoist is not good at Feng Shui and stargazing, my book "Sixteen Universes Yin and Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" discusses the secrets in detail, including "Si Tianyu" and "Kuixing Pan", which is almost equivalent to opening the door.
Tianmu, pilot the "Trident" into and out of this mysterious spiral maze, just like a guard.
After everyone understood the functions of "Si Tianyu" and "Kuixingpan", they were so excited that they almost didn't know what to say. They didn't expect that this insurmountable gap had been figured out by ancient people thousands of years ago.
Although modern technology is becoming more and more advanced, we have to admit that over-reliance on technology and equipment has caused people to degrade in some aspects. However, these bad things should be left to philosophers to think about. Now in the South China Sea,
The biggest treasure is almost within reach in front of everyone's eyes. Wealth is so overwhelming that we can't worry about the contradiction between social progress and human degradation.
Not long after, the sound of roaring waves from the distant sea was heard. The sound of the surging sea water was like a huge bell. In an instant, the sea tide surged. With Si Tian's secret technique of moving mountains and reclamation, the "Trident" rode the wind and waves and crossed the reef.
A group of people saw a group of colorful clouds on the sea ahead. People running boats on the sea called this thing "fairy mountain". Fairy mountain does not specifically refer to the rocks and islands exposed above the sea. The so-called fairy mountain refers to the clouds falling on the sea, and the boats
