Old Yan said: "This layout reminds me of a Feng Shui custom from the Northern and Southern Qi dynasties, 'Deep caves hide dragons'!"
I nodded. There is indeed such a record in the ancient books of Maoshan. As for when it was recorded, I don't know, but "a dragon hidden in a deep cave" is indeed a rare and strange custom. It appeared briefly in history and never appeared again. Because there are mostly plains in the north, it is very difficult to find a dragon vein here. For example, the layout of the dragon tower and the palace can only be found in the mountains. The so-called Feng Shui is to hide the wind and absorb the air. What can be hidden without mountains
So someone came up with a trick to create a deep cave with hidden dragons. In fact, our ancestors didn't know that the mountains were formed by the movement of the earth's crust, and the dragon vein pattern was formed. If you trace the source, it still came out from underground. But our ancestors could see that the land had spiritual energy. After digging, they would find something unusual, and there might be a hidden dragon vein pattern underneath. Then, with the finishing touch, it would become a deep cave with hidden dragons!
However, almost no one knows about this kind of Feng Shui where a dragon is hidden in a deep cave. Old Yan actually knows about it. The old guy has a lot of knowledge in his stomach.
I added, "A deep cave hiding a dragon must have water veins, ventilation at both ends, and a hollow center to absorb air. Otherwise, it would be a dead dragon!"
When Old Yan heard this, he couldn't help but smile and give me a thumbs up.
Lu Fei scratched his head and said, "Why haven't I heard of a feng shui situation like a deep cave hiding a dragon?"
Shen Bing snorted and sneered at him: "You don't even understand this, why do you still call me Mr." She said this as if she understood, and then asked us: "What did you just say? It's like the secret code used by spies to contact each other."
I smiled and said, "Because this dragon vein is underground, we must have ventilation on both sides to allow the wind to blow in unimpeded. There must be a place in the middle to store wind and absorb air, and we can arrange the Feng Shui layout there. In this way, there will be an exit at the other end, and we will have hope of escaping."
"Really? Then let's find a way out."
As we walked forward, the bat monster's cooing sound could be heard from time to time. In the dark and silent corridor, it was particularly strange and made us jump with fear. I was quite puzzled. Who would put a monster in the feng shui layout? Judging from the situation, the bat monster was most likely in the hollow air intake part, which was the only way to the dragon's tail.
This area is behind the arched door. We have arrived in front of it. The four of us stopped at the same time and looked inside with flashlights.
Inside was a circular cave, slightly wider than the corridor, and made entirely of jade, which reflected a soft light under the flashlight. A small black tower about three meters high stood in the center of the cave, occupying almost half of the space.
The tower body is very old, judging from the mottled traces of vicissitudes, and should be made of steel. I counted and found that there are twelve floors in total, and there is a head sticking out of the tower door on each floor. Damn it, the heads sticking out of the two bottom floors are actually multi-eared monsters and eight-legged monsters!
The head that appeared on the third floor was a bat monster! It was still screaming at us. Going up, each floor had a face of different shapes and appearances, and only the twelfth floor was empty. So many monsters gathered in the tower at the same time, there was an indescribable mystery and horror!
