Volume 1: Ghosts of the Underworld Wail... Chapter 34: The Killing Intent Behind the Stone Gate (1)

  Chen Long pushed with his right hand, wanting to push the door open, but was shocked to find that his strength far exceeded that of a normal person, yet the door didn't budge. He tried using both hands with force, but the door still wouldn't move.

  Chen Long's forehead broke out in a sweat, and he took a step back, looking somewhat embarrassed: "Ahem, this door is a bit strange, I couldn't open it."

  Jiang Feng gazed at the two door handles, his eyes shining brightly. Under the illumination of the flashlight, the two handles appeared golden yellow in color, with no signs of aging visible on them. The handles were elliptical in shape, one end embedded within the stone gate, tightly merged with the stone blocks. "This thing can't be made of gold, right? Look at it, both are so large, probably weighing around three to four kilograms combined. If they're really gold, we'd be rich!"

  "You're just dreaming! Gold isn't that hard? At most, it's brass mixed with some gold, which is why the color is so close to pure gold." Chen Long ruthlessly shot down Jiang Feng's idea. "This door, I estimate none of us four can push it open. Just now, I used all my strength, even a head cow couldn't budge it, not that I'm bragging, but my strength is almost equal to the three of you combined. However, as you've seen, with this much force applied, there's no reaction at all."

  "Isn't there a switch or something? Didn't the books say that ancient tombs have lots of mechanisms inside? Let's all take a look, see if there are any protruding stone blocks, things that can be rotated, or maybe even hollow floorboards." Yuan Tian walked in circles in front of the stone gate, his eyes scanning the surrounding walls.

  "Don't look anymore, there's nothing." Chen Long shrugged helplessly. "I've used special methods to sense it, no strange stones, no hollow floorboards, no mechanism anywhere." As he said this, he himself felt incredulous, "But how did those people get in?"

  "There's nothing better." Jiang Feng muttered to himself, and turned his gaze back to the two door guards, "These things may not be pure gold, but they're worth a lot of money, right? You guys don't mind if I pry them off, do you? The doors can't be opened anyway."

  He said and did, Jiang Feng pulled out a wrench and started to loosen the valve, wanting to remove it.

  Yuan Hua looked at Jiang Feng with a hint of disdain in his eyes, then turned to ask: "Chen Long, since you understand Taoist magic, can't you find a way to open the door?"

  Yuan Hua's eyes saw through Chen Long, and he sneered in his heart. He thought to himself that although Jiang Feng wasn't very intelligent, his acting skills were indeed impressive, making others underestimate him and think he was a useless person. "I only understand some Taoist techniques, such as the art of escape and concealment, wind and water divination, and fate calculation - I don't know anything about these things," he said coldly, his eyes fixed on Jiang Feng's tightly clenched fists, lost in thought.

  Seeing the disappointed expressions of Yuan Tian and Yuan Hua, Chen Long said: "Although I didn't learn those things very thoroughly, I still understand some of them, so it shouldn't happen that everyone falls into a desperate situation because I don't understand."

  Yuan Tian didn't care about Chen Long's contradictory words: "I only know some things that the public knows, but it also makes me feel surprised. Look." He took out a notebook from his bag with the words "Chinese Feng Shui School" written on it. Chen Long took it and started reading with great interest.

  The origins of Feng Shui in China date back to the time of the River Chart and the Luo Book, emerging during the Jin Dynasty and flourishing during the Tang and Song Dynasties. Over thousands of years, various Feng Shui schools and masters have emerged. In its development process, Feng Shui has gradually formed two major schools: the Form School and the Compass School. The Form School emphasizes the information contained in the combination of mountain and direction, while the Compass School adheres to the principles of time and space, with each having its own strengths.

  Formalism

  Xue Xin Fu Pai, also known as Jiang Xi Pai or Luan Tou Pai. It includes Wai Xing Fa and Nei Xing Fa. Practitioners of this school are skilled in Xun Long, Cha Sha, Guan Shui, Dian Xue, etc. In fact, they categorize natural environmental elements into four categories: Dragon, Hole, Sand, and Water, and examine the conditions of these four categories themselves.

  Yang Gong sent EBQDOFXQAH

  Yang Gong school is the representative of the Form School, it is based on the theoretical experience of Yang Yunsong, Zeng Wenqian, Liao Yu and Lai Wenjun four gentlemen, and has been passed down through generations to become a Feng Shui school.

  Three Harmonies Society

  The San He school is a branch of the Yanggong Feng Shui, which has many unique characteristics compared to the orthodox Yanggong Feng Shui. The so-called "San He" refers to: Shen, Zi, and Chen forming the water trigram, Yin, Wu, and Xu forming the fire trigram, Si, You, and Chou forming the metal trigram, and Hai, Mao, and Wei forming the wood trigram. In addition, this school also divides the 24 mountain directions into 12 parts: Longsheng, Muyu, Guandai, Linquan, Diwang, Shuai, Bing, Si, Mu, Jue, Tai, and Yang, to distinguish the auspiciousness of the mountains and water.

  3、Jīn suǒ yù guān pài YZBYVNUSAED

  Jin Suo Yu Guan is renowned for its simplicity and practicality, with an accuracy in judging affairs that surpasses any Feng Shui school. Also known as "Guo Lu Yin Yang", once you grasp this method, when evaluating the fortune of a residence, there's no need to use a compass; simply circling around the residence will reveal its good or bad luck at a glance. In essence, Jin Suo Yu Guan is also a type of Form School, but it has absorbed some advantages from the Li Qi school.

  4、I Ching School VGOGRMBNHNO

  The Bagua school mainly uses the pre-heaven and post-heaven eight trigrams theory as its foundation, combined with the five elements of generation, restriction, and transformation, spatial orientation, and human affairs to determine good or bad fortune.

  Two, Rationalist DYNHDBWC

  Li Qi Pai, also known as Fujian Pai or Li Fa Pai, Zong Miao Pai. It mainly uses Bagua and Feng Shui to analyze the relationship between human body and geographical climate from time and space perspectives, including principles such as Five Elements, Yin-Yang, Eight Trigrams, Nine Stars fortune-telling, 24 mountain directions etc.

  1、Three yuan faction PDZKFPFJ(IDC

  This school coordinates and applies the three yuan nine operations and the mountain head method, among which some use the sixty-four hexagrams to distinguish the auspiciousness of mountains and rivers, while others use the twenty-four mountains to distinguish the auspiciousness of mountains and rivers.

  2. Xuan Kong Pai

  The "Xuan" in Xuan Kong means "unification", and the "Kong" in Xuan Kong means "space". The general idea of Xuan Kong Feng Shui is to use the equations of time, space, and energy conversion, based on yin-yang, Hetu, Luoshu, pre-heavenly eight trigrams, post-heavenly eight trigrams, five elements, and numbers one to nine to examine the feng shui of a house. Xuan Kong Feng Shui has a long history, with many great masters emerging in each generation, such as Jiang Da Hong, Zhang Zhong Shan, Wen Ming Yuan, Wang Ting Zhi. The Shen Xuan Kong School that is currently popular in the world is one of its branches, and its influence can be said to have swept the world for a time. Xuan Kong is a typical Li Qi school, but in practical application, it still emphasizes the combination of Li Qi and shape, and is a very mature subject. The key points of Xuan Kong Feng Shui are three: first, arranging dragons and establishing holes; second, flying stars and arranging plates; third, collecting mountains and eliminating evil spirits.

  3、Bagua School QTPWQUL

  This is a school that divides the residential orientation into eight houses according to the "eight trigrams" principle, and then deduces the matching relationship between "house" and "master of fate" by a method called "big tour year" variation. The Eight Houses School is deeply compatible with the Book of Changes, and its subtleties are endless, but those who truly grasp its true transmission and master its essence are extremely rare.

  4. Nine Star Ki Astrology

  Divide the 24 mountains into yin and yang, nine stars (Greedy Wolf, Giant Gate, Lucky Store, Literary Curve, Honest Integrity, Military Curve, Left Assistant, Right Protector), five elements (Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth) to distinguish mountain water auspiciousness.
