Chapter 238: Chapter 0238 Nine Stars of the Heavenly Palace
On a full-moon night, the stone gate opened by itself?
I couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was like finding a treasure in a fucking martial arts novel.
In fact, before this, I always thought that the weird Qimen Dunjia technique written in martial arts novels was bullshit. It was not until I saw the Qimen Dunjia technique that was used to the extreme by the Loulan Kingdom that I realized how mysterious and profound this line of work is.
That day, we spent time in the ruins, resting and recovering the physical strength lost from running around for days. Iris and her supplies were completely ours. Medicines, food, and clean water were available, and everyone even carried some in their backpacks. After all, we had to go deep into the Loulan Palace that sank underground. The palace was dangerous and unknown, so clean water and dry food were definitely indispensable. Along the way, since Alay, the old scum, took away all our supplies in the black storm, we suffered a lot because of lack of water and food. It was a miracle that we could survive until today. As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years. We were absolutely 100% prepared in this regard.
However, we are now in the ghost town, and we must make the necessary preparations. At night, in order to avoid harassment from the evil ghosts in the ruins, Qingyi also set up an exorcism array around. Therefore, at night, although the wind was blowing in the ruins, we really didn't see any evil things coming out to harm us.
In the blink of an eye, the full moon was already hanging high.
I looked at the time. It was already midnight, but the stone door still had no movement. So I asked Cao Yuan in confusion: "Is there something wrong?"
"It's midnight, and the mystery has just appeared!!"
Cao Yuan rolled his eyes at me unhappily: "If the stone door can open by itself, there must be a strange sound. Our country's archaeological team discovered it when they were exploring here!"
I scratched my head a little embarrassedly, but since Cao Yuan said that the mystery on the stone door has appeared, my curiosity was completely seduced. I took a flashlight and jumped into the pit dug during the day. At this time, the turtle book we cleaned up during the day was covered with a layer of fine sand because of the day's wind and sand.
I reached out to brush away the sand, turned on the flashlight and prepared to see if there were any changes in the tortoise book. Unexpectedly, just as I raised the flashlight, Cao Yuan, who was standing outside the pit, suddenly said, "No light! I can't see clearly if there is light!"
I was stunned, and I didn't understand what the girl meant, but I still put away the flashlight as she said, and then read the tortoise book in the dark environment. I was stunned at the moment. If I read it this way, there is indeed something in the tortoise book!
At this time, because it was the fifteenth day of the month, the moon in the sky was particularly round and bright!
The soft moonlight projected from the sky onto the tortoise book, and I could barely see the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds diagram on the tortoise book, but now there were many more shadows on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds diagram. The largest shadow was in the shape of a pointer, lying in the middle of the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds diagram. In addition, there were many small black spots at the nine positions on the edge of the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds diagram. If you look closely, those small black spots are all small seal characters used in ancient times in the Central Plains! !
This...
I was ecstatic, and finally understood the secret of the stone door mechanism - shadow!
I subconsciously looked around the stone door, and found that there were several stone pillars in the ruins around the stone door that were particularly conspicuous. As expected, these shadows were the projections of the stone pillars on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram under the moonlight. Once the projections fell, words would appear on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram, and then people could find a way to open the door through these words! Otherwise, just relying on the understanding of the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram, even if a god came, he would not be able to figure it out. After all, the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram is known as the most amazing diagram. Some people believe that the five thousand years of Chinese civilization are related to this small Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, and cultural characteristics are all understood bit by bit from the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram. Even the great god Fuxi and the sage Dayu may not have understood this diagram!
However, I am not sure why the door should be opened on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. It may be because the moonlight on the fifteenth is the strongest and the moonlight is the brightest!
Cao Yuan seemed to have guessed what I was thinking, so he sat down by the sand pit and asked me with a smile: "Do you know the rules of the Nine Palaces?"
How could I not know the rules of the Nine Palaces? If I can't play the Nine Palaces, what's the point of Feng Shui for me!
The Nine Palaces is actually a strange diagram derived from the Luoshu. It is to fill the numbers 1-9 into the nine grids in a certain way. The positions of the numbers are arranged in a very ingenious way. The sum of the three numbers on the six vertical and horizontal lines and the two diagonals is 15, which is called the magic number! !
After Cao Yuan's suggestion, I suddenly understood that when seeing the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Diagram, I should first think of the Nine Palaces. When thinking of the Nine Palaces, I should first think of the rules of the Nine Palaces. The rule of the Nine Palaces is that the sum of the three numbers on the six vertical and horizontal lines and the two diagonals is 15. If you want to open the stone door, you should start with the number 15 to crack it - the full moon night is exactly the fifteenth of each month, and the mystery of the turtle book will naturally appear at this time! !
I was so shocked that I couldn't say more. How many people would have to have a big brain to think of the way to crack this stone door? If I didn't know the tricks here, I'm afraid that old man Einstein would be crazy! !
Seeing my stunned look, Cao Yuan laughed very proudly: "In order to make the projections of those stone pillars fall on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Map on the night of the full moon, the Loulan people observed the sky at night and summed up the position of the moon in this area at 15 o'clock, and then calculated the light trajectory when the moonlight fell, and finally determined the position of those stone pillars through the trajectory and refraction angle of the moonlight! In other words, only on the night of the full moon, the shadows of those stone pillars will fall on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Map impartially, and they can't be seen at other times!"
Speaking of this, Cao Yuan tilted his head and looked at me: "Look at the reflection carefully again, I want to see if you can find a way to open the door through these reflections!"
In fact, she didn't need me to say it, I had already lowered my head and looked carefully.
Needless to say, the pointer must have been moved by the stone pillar to point to different directions. There is no need to study it. The secret of the reflection should be in the small seals around it.
I can understand the small seals, and I squinted my eyes slightly when I saw it.
"Tian Peng Star, Tian Rui Star, Tian Chong Star, Tian Fu Star, Tian Qin Star, Tian Xin Star, Tian Zhu Star, Tian Ren Star, Tian Ying Star..."
This is the content of the small seal!
The nine stars in Qi Men Dun Jia?
I couldn't help laughing. The arrangement of the nine stars in Qi Men Dun Jia was recorded in great detail in "Fa Qiu Secret Art". Because tombs often use Qi Men Dun Jia to prevent theft, my ancestor studied Qi Men Dun Jia very deeply. Cao Yuan couldn't test me with this, so I turned my head and asked her: "Tian Gong Nine Star Formation?"
Cao Yuan was stunned and looked at me in surprise: "You actually know?"
I laughed triumphantly.
The Tiangong Nine Stars Formation, like the Eight Gates Dunjia, has nine positions where the nine stars are located, which are both auspicious and inauspicious, but the auspiciousness and inauspiciousness of each star are different!
For example, the Tianzhu Star, the position of this star is opposite to the Dui Gua of the Seven Palaces in the West, and it is a Yin star, belonging to the metal element. In terms of good and bad luck, in the golden autumn, people like to kill and fight, so this star is related to fear, weirdness, destruction and destruction, and is a very evil star! Looking at our current situation, if the reflection of the pointer falls on the position of the Tianzhu Star, I am afraid that after activating the Tiangong Nine Stars Formation, all the lonely ghosts in the ruins will suddenly become violent and attack us, which is exactly the characteristic of the Tianzhu Star!
This is the Tiangong Nine Stars Formation. As long as the pointer does not fall in the right place and falls on the evil star, it will be fatal!
I fell into silence, thinking carefully about which star is the place to open the stone door!
Choose, you must choose the auspicious star!
Among the nine stars, there are only three auspicious stars-Tianxin, Tianren, and Tianfu!
Tianfu Star is the legendary Wenqu Star, which promotes culture and education.
Tianxin Star promotes military command and medical treatment.
Tianren Star promotes agriculture!
The treasures of the Loulan Palace are used to restore the country, so it is useless for them to promote culture and education and agriculture. After all, the country has not been restored yet, so it is too early to consider those. After thinking about it, I think promoting military command is the most useful!
So, I pointed to the location of Tianxin Star and turned to ask Cao Yuan: "Is this it?"
Cao Yuan smiled bitterly at that time: "You calculated it right, the people of the Ge family are really terrifying. If your people from the Ge family had been here before, the treasure of Loulan might have seen the light of day long ago!"
I was also very excited at this time, but I was even more shocked by the wisdom of the Loulan people. I silently calculated the angle and direction, then turned around and raised my hand to point to a 30-meter-high stone pillar more than 40 meters behind me, and shouted in a deep voice: "Fatty, that stone pillar must be able to move, you go and push that stone pillar to the south 50 steps! Remember, you can only push 50 steps, not one step more, not one step less!"
The stone pillar I pointed to was the stone pillar corresponding to the reflection of the pointer on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Map.
"Okay!"
The fat man responded, and ran to the stone pillar happily. He spitted twice at his hands, and then pushed the stone pillar with all his strength. After a while, the stone pillar really moved with a rumble. It seems that I guessed right. There should be a slide under the stone pillar, which can slide!
As the stone pillar moved, the reflection of the pointer on the Nine Palaces and Eight Winds Map began to slowly rotate. When the fat man stopped, the pointer fell on the position of Tianxin Star!
Cao Yuan reminded on the side: "Use the blood essence of your finger to activate the Tiangong Nine Star Formation!"
I nodded, bit my index finger, and pressed my index finger directly on the position of Tianxin Star. I didn't know what material this stone was made of. As soon as I pressed my finger on it, it actually "sizzled" and sucked my blood. Then the stone under my feet began to tremble with a rumble...
