Shili Village is close to the city. There are only about two hundred households in the village. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Although the village is small, the scenery is excellent. shu mark 玷癞癹
The weather in the north is still very cold after the New Year. Most of the snow that fell a year ago has melted, but the top of the mountain is still white.
Two little girls were walking on the mountain road. Liu Cuicui is twelve years old this year, two years older than Xia Shao. She grew up in the village. Mountain climbing is a common thing for her. She is considered tall among girls of the same age. She climbed up the mountain quickly, had a lively temperament, and was warm-hearted. After climbing a few steps, she would turn back and grab Xia Shao. Seeing how clumsy she was walking, I couldn't help but laugh.
Xia Shao's face was covered with black lines. When she heard that she was going up the mountain, her grandma asked her to go back to the house and put on two more thick sweaters and wrap a small red cotton coat outside, and that was it.
God knows she looks like a dumpling! Have you ever seen Baozi climbing a mountain? It's good if it didn't roll down.
However, as long as he could go out, Xia Shao didn't care so much at this time.
"Shaozi, look! I see Professor Zhou and the others! Uncle Zhou Wang and village elder Uncle Wang are also there." Liu Cuicui pointed into the distance and said.
Xia Shao looked in the direction she pointed. The village was surrounded by mountains on three sides. The villagers farmed on the mountains in front. Almost no one farmed on the mountains in the back, which were usually just woods. There were several small natural lakes in front of the mountains, and Several reservoirs were built.
Looking from a distance, about five or six men were standing in front of a small frozen lake, pointing at the mountains behind.
Liu Cuicui and Xia Shao ran over.
Everyone in the village knew them both. Zhou Wang saw them and said, "Why are you two kids here?"
"Shaozi said that he wanted to go up the mountain to meet Professor Zhou, so we came." Liu Cuicui actually didn't know how to lie, and she would answer whatever was asked.
Xia Shao almost touched her forehead, so she had to call her uncle and uncle in a circle before bowing to an old man in his sixties with gray hair and a kind face and shouted: "Hello, Professor Zhou."
Professor Zhou laughed happily, "Whose child is this? Very polite."
Seeing how cute Xia Shao's dough balls were, he couldn't help but tease her.
Zhou Wang on the side said: "This is the granddaughter of Uncle Xia's family, her name is Xia Shao. The one next to her is Liu Cuicui, the daughter of Mr. Liu's family."
Professor Zhou nodded, asked the two of them their ages, and then told them to stand back and stay away from the frozen lake in front, and then started talking to a few more people.
"I think this place is very good. It hides wind and gathers energy." Professor Zhou said.
The village elder next to him, Uncle Wang, and several others nodded, obviously admiring and respecting Professor Zhou very much. Whatever he said, it would be whatever he said.
"Second uncle, you have the final say on the matter of building the ancestral tombs! If you say this is good, we will build it here! The soil on the mountain is still frozen and it is difficult to start construction. We will start working on it when spring comes." Zhou Wang said.
Xia Shao on the side frowned strangely. To be honest, she really didn't understand Feng Shui.
Although they took elective courses when they were in college, they studied architecture-related subjects. They mainly learned some modern home feng shui, which focused on achieving harmony between man and nature and how furniture should be placed to make people's bodies and minds happy. Comfortable and easy to understand. As for the profound theory, I haven’t learned any of it.
In Xia Shao's opinion, the place Professor Zhou chose was quite good, with mountains and water. How could it cause so much damage later
Thinking like this, Xia Shao couldn't help but take a closer look at the place chosen by Professor Zhou.
At this sight, she almost screamed.
The reason is that in Xia Shao's eyes, the landscape in front of her suddenly changed!
To be precise, the mountains are still mountains and the water is still water, but now it is covered with a layer of gas!
These gases are divided into two colors, one is dazzlingly white and warm like sunlight, making people very comfortable. The other one is gray and a little cold, making people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.
Could it be that this is Yin Qi and Yang Qi in what the ancients called "Yin and Yang of Heaven and Earth"
The theory of yin and yang and the five elements exists in ancient Eastern culture. Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to the harmony of yin and yang. It can be seen that the theory of yin and yang is not groundless.
Xia Shao didn't know if what she saw was really Yin Qi and Yang Qi, but she did see that the place chosen by Professor Zhou at this time was indeed very bad! There is gray gas gathering here, and the concentration is even extremely high, making people feel very uncomfortable.
This is probably the so-called place where evil spirits gather, right? No wonder Professor Zhou's family ended up in such a tragic situation in his previous life.
She didn't want to think that her heavenly eye actually had such a function. Seeing that Professor Zhou had identified this place, and that Uncle Zhou Wang had even decided to start construction in the spring, Xia Shao couldn't help but feel anxious.
But she knew that it was impossible for her to tell the truth. Even if she did, no one would believe her, and they would probably treat her as a lunatic. So she was so anxious that she grabbed the corner of Professor Zhou's clothes and asked, "Grandpa Zhou, you just talked about hiding the wind and gathering qi. What is hiding the wind and gathering qi?"
Professor Zhou was stunned, but the village elder Uncle Wang on the side scolded: "Child, why are you asking so many questions! Your generation is very scientific, so stop asking about these feudal superstitions!"
"What is this? The theory of Feng Shui comes from "The Book of Changes", one of the Five Classics. No one dares to say that it is fully understood. It is undeniable that there are some superstitious parts in its development, but there are many things worth studying. Place. Western countries are beginning to value our culture. We cannot continue to belittle our own culture, otherwise we will regret it in the future and be laughed at!"
You can't blame Professor Zhou for being excited. His parents were persecuted to death in that turbulent era. In that era, it was not only his parents who died, but also a lot of culture worth passing on was destroyed.
Later, Professor Zhou and several scholars set out to study and restore these traditional cultures. However, they all found it difficult to interpret the "Book of Changes" and lamented the difficulty of inheritance.
"Our next generation, even if they cannot inherit the wisdom of their ancestors, must at least have the most basic understanding of Chinese studies. They can not understand, but they must not be ignorant." Professor Zhou's words were serious, and Zhou Wang and several elders in the village immediately stopped talking. Dare you say anything more.
At this time, Professor Zhou picked up Xia Shaolai, regained his kind smile, and pointed it out to her, "Come on, child, Grandpa Zhou will point it out to you. Look at this mountain, does it look like a dragon when it is connected? ?”
Although Xia Shao didn't understand Feng Shui, he knew that the terms dragon veins and dragon potential in Feng Shui were actually just a very vivid resemblance.
But that wasn't what she cared about.
Before, she was standing on the ground and her field of vision was limited. Now that she was picked up by Professor Zhou, her field of vision suddenly became wider. At a glance, she saw that Shili Village was surrounded by mountains on three sides. The village was not big, and there was a winding road behind the mountains. When the road was dug, several mountains were cut off. The mountain chosen by Professor Zhou extended out and was cut off by the road.
Although Xia Shao didn't understand, she also knew that it was definitely not good for a mountain that was destroyed in this situation, not to mention that it was broken.
Xia Shao's eyes flashed, pretending to be innocent as a child, pointing to the road and said: "The dragon has no tail."
"No tail?" Professor Zhou was stunned. He looked where Xia Shao was pointing and along the road for a while, and suddenly he looked horrified.
"Oops! No! Why didn't I pay attention to this road before!"
His shout startled Zhou Wang and several elderly people in the village, and they quickly asked: "Why is it so bad?"
Professor Zhou was a little incoherent, "It almost caused a disaster... This place is not good, not good! Change the place, change the place!"
"Ah? Change the place? Second uncle, didn't you say that this place is good for hiding the wind and gathering energy?" Zhou Wang asked in confusion.
"What do you know! I asked you to change, so you can change!" Professor Zhou excitedly put Xia Shao down and took a good look at her, his hands were shaking, "My child, thanks to you, otherwise I would have been in big trouble! You are truly a lucky star!”
These words made the people next to her even more confused. What does a child have to do with her
But Professor Zhou was deeply convinced and immediately went to another place. Xia Shao and Liu Cuicui followed, until Professor Zhou chose a place he was satisfied with. After Xia Shao looked at it, he found that the white Yang Qi gathered here, and then he felt relieved.
Professor Zhou turned around and picked up Xia Shao, as if to reassure her, and let her take a look again. This move made Xia Shao dumbfounded, but the jaws of the village chief, Zhou Wang and others who were watching on the side almost dropped. How could this professor from Beijing University, a famous scholar at home and abroad, take the words of a child so seriously
"It's good here!" Xia Shao nodded, her forehead already covered with black lines.
After selecting the land, the village chief and Zhou Wang began to discuss the groundbreaking in the spring. The group of people returned to the village while talking.
And just after the group left, in a house built on the back hill, an old man with gray hair sat in a wheelchair, looking in the direction of the group, muttering to himself in surprise.
"This morning's divination clearly did not result in this... Could it be that the heavenly secrets here are out of order and are being fulfilled here?... Who is it? Who has this ability? Hiss! Could it be... that girl?"
