Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God
Chapter 17: Finding Dragon Points and Feng Shui Secret Techniques
When Clark used his psychic powers to disperse the local residents of the "City of the Dead," what appeared in front of him were two middle-aged men who looked to be in their forties.
One of the two people is round and tall, and he should be the Fatty Wang in the conversation just now.
The other one, Lao Hu, looks a little fatter, but between his brows and eyes, you can still vaguely recognize this guy's handsome face when he was young.
"Hey kid, thank you just now!"
Fatty Wang got up from the ground and patted the dust on his body casually. He said this to Clark who was not far away, but his eyes fell on Laura beside him.
The old Hu next to him gave Fatty Wang a little tug and told him to pay attention to his quality, "How can you possibly understand a foreign kid if you speak Chinese to him?"
After saying that, he turned around and smiled at Clark and the others, and said a few words in fair English, "Three grams of oil! Three grams of oil!"
"Commander Hu, I say don't bother yourself. It's strange that people can understand your loose English.
It's a pity that Staff Officer Yang didn't come this time, otherwise she could have been asked to translate in the middle. "
Looking at the two live treasures in front of them, Hermione and the other three looked confused. They had no idea what they were talking about. Only Clark laughed secretly and waved at them.
"No need to bother, I understand Chinese."
Clark's well-spoken Mandarin made both of them stunned for a moment, and his familiar local accent made the old Hu's eyes less wary.
"Hey, this little foreign devil can also speak Mandarin." Fatty Wang leaned into Lao Hu's ear and whispered, causing Lao Hu to glare at him fiercely.
Clark didn't pay attention to their whispers, and invited them: "You two, this is not the place to talk. Otherwise, we should go out first and then talk."
Fatty Wang and Lao Hu glanced around and noticed that the local residents who had been dispersed did not leave, but were hiding in the dark, staring at them eagerly and nodding hurriedly.
The group of six people turned and walked towards the outside of the "City of the Dead". Hermione quickened her pace and walked to Clark's side, looking at him with surprised eyes as she walked.
"You speak their language so well?"
Clark smiled, "For a spellcaster, there is never too much knowledge, so what's so surprising about learning a few foreign languages?"
Hermione heard this,
She didn't doubt him, but she secretly decided to learn a foreign language like Clark.
Everyone walked through two alleys and finally walked out of the "City of the Dead".
At this time, Lao Hu and Fatty Wang were about to leave, but Clark suddenly stopped them.
"You two, to be honest with you, I heard what you said just now. It just so happens that we are also preparing to explore an ancient ruins. I wonder if you are interested?"
The two looked at each other. Before Fatty Wang could speak, Old Hu, who looked more mature and steady, said, "Thank you, no need. We are just visiting Cairo and are not interested in the so-called adventure."
Fatty Wang hurriedly signaled with his eyes, but Lao Hu didn't give him a chance to speak. He just put his arm around Fatty Wang's shoulders and prepared to push him away.
Clark looked at the back of Fatty Wang who was still struggling, and said slowly: "It is said that several Egyptian pharaohs are buried in that place, and the golden burial objects inside are piled up into a hill."
Lao Hu stopped, and Fatty Wang broke free from his restraints and turned around, "Are you telling the truth?"
Seeing Clark nodding, Fatty Wang beamed with joy and quickly began to persuade his companions in turn, "Old Hu, Commander Hu! It took a lot of effort for us to come here, so we can't go back empty-handed."
Lao Hu was not carried away by Clark's description and asked very calmly, "Why are you telling us this? It seems like this is the first time we have met."
Before Clark could answer this question, Fatty Wang explained for him, "Hey, why are they looking for us? Of course they are interested in our brothers' abilities!"
As he said that, he faced Clark again, "Little guy, let me tell you, he, Hu Jianjun, is the contemporary successor of Captain Mo Jin. Does Captain Mo Jin know that? That is..."
"I know that in the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Wei Cao Cao established military ranks such as Faqiu Zhonglang General and Mojin Xiaowei in order to supplement the military pay."
Clark said without waiting for Fatty Wang to speak.
“It is said that this trade has been passed down to this day, and all the members of the sect are good in reverse fighting, and all of them have real abilities.
Especially the capable masters among them can go to a place and take a look to know whether there is an ancient tomb underground, where it is buried, and what structure it is. These can be seen at a glance. "
"Hey, you little foreigner...little foreigner, you know a lot, Old Hu, he even knows how to fight upside down!" Fatty Wang pulled Hu Jianjun and was very happy.
Then, he boasted to Clark in front of him: "Let me tell you, the Hu Jianjun in front of you is the kind of master you said who is proficient in the secrets of Feng Shui. He can find dragons and share gold."
Clark chuckled and had no comment on what he said, but he knew that the two bold guys in front of him were already interested in what he said.
So he invited directly: "That's great. I didn't expect that these two are experts in this field. I think it's getting late. Why don't we find a place to eat and chat?"
"I'll treat you to this meal." Clark added.
When someone invited them to dinner, Fatty Wang was naturally very happy, and Hu Jianjun also reluctantly followed them.
Several people found an Arab barbecue restaurant on the streets of Cairo. The processed chicken, mutton and beef were put on iron rods layer by layer and roasted on the fire.
The aroma produced by the caramelized fat of the meat, mixed with the spices of chili and cumin, will make people's fingers twitch.
Nowadays, people don't have any image burdens when it comes to delicious food. They just imitate the local people's behavior, throw away their arms, hold the barbecue in both hands and move it left and right, and eat with their mouths full of oil.
After they had had enough wine and food, and brewed a pot of Cairo's unique black tea, they continued their unfinished conversation.
"The person sitting in front of you is Lara Croft, the 11th generation countess of the British Crawford family. She is also the patron of our adventure."
Laura saw Clark pointing at her and nodded reservedly towards Fatty Wang and the two. The fullness in her chest made waves, making them dizzy.
"Ms. Laura is one of the most famous historians in the UK. This time, in order to conduct a detailed investigation of the history of ancient Egypt, the place we are going to is called Hamnata.
It is also known as the City of the Dead and is the burial place of all the pharaohs of ancient Egypt. It is said that there are countless rare treasures buried under the entire city. "
Upon hearing Clark's introduction, Fatty Wang's breathing became more rapid.
But the next moment, Clark's words changed again, "Of course, not everyone can participate in this adventure. What we need are talents! Elites like us!"
Lao Hu and Fatty Wang suppressed their smiles and looked at Clark, Hermione and Neville sitting at the table. Just three brats with no hair at all. How could they still call themselves elites? !
Clark didn't know what the two of them were thinking, so he just continued: "Just now, you two said that you know some Chinese secrets of Yin and Yang Feng Shui. When I was studying Chinese, I also heard about some of them from the teacher who taught me Chinese. Content related to tomb culture.”
Fatty Wang laughed when he heard this.
"Then you have met an expert today.
As the saying goes, look for the dragon and divide the gold to see the winding mountain. One layer of entanglement is a layer of barrier. If there are eight layers of danger in closing the door, there will be no yin and yang and eight trigrams.
This old Hu Hu Jianjun is the Captain Mojin of the Tianxing Sect. His family's half-book "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" explains all the secrets of Feng Shui. "
"Oh, really?"
Clark took a calm sip of the black tea. The light sourness spread in his mouth, mixed with the tea aroma, making people feel relaxed and happy.
"But those Feng Shui secrets are your Chinese knowledge. We are in Egypt now, and we are going to the Pharaoh's tomb next. Will your Feng Shui secrets work?"
Faced with Clark's question, Fatty Wang was speechless and was immediately stopped by the question.
He was originally a free-spirited character and considered himself a master of gags. Looking at the little foreigner in front of me, I was ready to bully him for not knowing this knowledge, and make up some lies to fool him.
However, when he looked at the foreign kid who could speak Chinese, he was shocked by the other's bright eyes, and he just didn't say the lie on his lips.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became awkward. Facing Clark who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, it was Hu Jianjun who stepped forward.
"Since you have studied Chinese and understand Chinese culture, you should have heard of the principle that 'nothing can change without departing from its origins'.
China, like ancient Egypt, is one of the four ancient civilizations. Both sides also have the tradition of "death is like life", and they attach great importance to things after death.
The yin and yang secrets of Feng Shui are the essence of Chinese tomb culture. "
As the saying goes, a connoisseur will know if something is wrong as soon as he makes a move. Hu Jianjun sat on the chair and talked eloquently. No matter his tone, posture or expression, he was full of convincing power.
"Most of Egypt's land is desert, and the ruins you are looking for must also be buried under the yellow sand.
After thousands or even thousands of years, the vast sea has turned into mulberry fields, and the oases and cities that once were have turned into the boundless sea of sand.
The mountains and rocks are weathered and the rivers have long dried up and are hard to find. The so-called map has naturally become a useless piece of paper.
In this case, the Chinese technique of Tianxing Feng Shui is the simplest and most effective way. "
"The art of Tianxing Feng Shui?" Laura, who was sitting aside, asked curiously.
Although her accent was very strange and she almost jumped out word by word, it was indeed genuine Mandarin.
"do you speak Chinese?"
At this time, even Clark felt very surprised.
Fatty Wang even winked at Lao Hu, as if to say, look, this foreign woman can also speak Chinese.
Laura said to them very proudly: "As a doctor of history, is it strange to know several foreign languages? In order to review literature, I can not only speak Chinese, but also Arabic and Latin."
Laura's doctorate degree caused critical damage to the two men who had never even gone to high school. Lao Hu could only change the topic immediately and introduce his family's Tianxing Feng Shui.
The so-called Tian Xing Feng Shui technique, also known as Tian Qiong Qing Sang Technique, originated from the Tian Zi Volume in the "Sixteen-Character Yin and Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" passed down by Hu Jianjun's family. It is the most obscure chapter among them.
“Feng shui, feng shui, in a nutshell, means a place where wind is hidden and a place where water is obtained.
Guo Pu, a scholar of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, put it well in his "Book of Burial": "Those who are buried take advantage of their vitality." Qi is dispersed by the wind, but stopped by boundary water. The ancients said that when people gather, they will not disperse, and when they move, they will stop. Therefore, it is called Feng Shui. ’
However, for those emperors and generals in ancient times, simply relying on the mountains and rivers to choose a tomb did not satisfy them.
So later generations infinitely expanded this Feng Shui theory. It was no longer limited to the earth veins and acupuncture points of tombs, but also included the three talents of Yin and Yang, the four images and the five elements, which gradually extended it to the art of Kanyu.
The ancients pursued the realm of unity between heaven and man. The tomb site must not only have mountains and water, but also the sun, moon and stars. It even has requirements for the birth date of the tomb owner and future generations.
So to put it bluntly, Chinese Feng Shui is a science that analyzes the relationship between heaven, earth, and people. "
"It is worthy of being one of the ancient civilizations. China's tomb culture is really extensive and profound. No wonder you want to keep them, Clark." Laura couldn't help but admire after hearing Hu Jianjun's story.
When Fatty Wang heard the beauty's compliment, his face showed an expression of pride.
"And what I am going to talk about today is the branch of Feng Shui that deals with the 'heaven' part - Tianxing Feng Shui."
Since ancient times, Chinese ancestors have often observed the sky at night, studied the changing patterns of the sun, moon and stars, and even created their own calendar to speculate on good and bad fortune, guide agricultural planting, and carry out social production.
Similarly, when choosing Feng Shui treasures, they also added the essence of astronomical astrology.
The distance between heaven and earth is eighty-four thousand miles; the distance between human heart and kidney is eight inches and four quarters; the human body has metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which correspond to the five heavenly stars; and there are twenty-eight stars, which correspond to the mountains and rivers of the world. geography.
It is said that stars have good and evil qualities, and the earth also has good and bad qualities.
Any auspicious soil must echo the sun, moon and stars in the sky.
And if we can understand the good and bad arrangement of these stars, and then use the compass to locate it, we can find the place we want to find.
So for us, Captain Mojin, we can defeat China’s war, and we can also open the tomb of foreign devils! "
Hu Jianjun's words were very powerful, but after he finished speaking, he lowered his tone slightly and took precautions in advance.
"Of course, there are many schools of this kind of Tianxing Feng Shui, and each school has its own rules and regulations, and there are also some contradictions among them.
The ancient ruins in the vast sea of sand have been found for thousands of years. Even if I take action, there is a 20-30% chance of finding them, which is not bad. "
