Chapter 65
I glanced at Mr. Feng in surprise; I hadn't expected him to possess such prowess. This place was indeed as he'd described: the mountains stretched like a dragon, with Anshan Mountain in the foreground and Chaoshan Mountain in the distance, forming a "Anshan facing the arch" pattern. The lush vegetation symbolized abundant life, and the abundant sunlight made it an ideal location for a tomb.
I lowered my head, grabbed a handful of soil, and rubbed it carefully with my hands.
The soil is fine and free of impurities. It seems that this is a large tomb. However, there is still a question. Ancient BJ was not as wealthy as the Central Plains. It was a foreign country. How could it understand the Han people's tomb system?
We lined up and walked up the brick path, climbing for over an hour. Climbing is the most tiring part. At this point, we were in a pine forest, but higher up, we saw that the trees were sparse and mostly just grass.
There is Baicaopan, the main peak of Baihua Mountain. The highest point is a finger-shaped peak, named Wuzhi Peak because its shape resembles five human fingers.
When I see the Five Finger Peak, I always feel that it seems to be grabbing something.
We climbed further up to the bank of white grass. There were no trees to be seen here, only low-lying flowers and grass. Above us was the massive Five Finger Peak, and to the right of it was a clear mountain spring.
According to the location marked on the map, the treasure should be here. But we searched for a long time and couldn't find the entrance.
"Strange, it's clearly here." He Man said.
Mr. Feng on the other side said, "It seems that it is not that easy after all."
"Mr. Feng, have you discovered anything?" He Man said.
Mr. Feng said with a hint of pretense, "Here, the Qian (northwest) and Hai (north-west) are the sitting mountains, and the Xun (southeast) and Si (south-east) are the facing directions, which conforms to the cosmic order of 'Heavenly Stems and Earthly Kun'. Furthermore, water flows from the right to the left, ultimately flowing out from the Yi (east-south), forming a 'jade belt around the waist' pattern of gathering energy. Directly in front is a low Anshan, shaped like Mount Emei. Therefore, the proper position is to sit in the Qian Palace, which is right there."
He pointed to the palm of his hand near the middle finger of the Five Finger Peak.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed.
What he was talking about was "the old yang acupoint is in a good position to avoid evil." This kind of tomb acupoint is located in Ganhai and faces Xunsi. The water on the right flows to the left and exits Yi, drawing away evil spirits. At the same time, the table mountain blocks external impacts, forming a closed space that stores wind and gathers energy. It seems that this is indeed a tomb acupoint, not a treasure.
Thinking of this, I began to hesitate whether to go in. If it were a treasure, I could go in and take a look without restraint, but a tomb of this size must have belonged to an ancient king, a general, or a minister. Old Yang Xue has a strong aura, and ordinary families without deep blessings would easily suffer backlash. Moreover, this place is full of natural beauty, with fragrant flowers and a sea of clouds. It is like a paradise on earth. How could it be a Feng Shui treasure that ordinary people in ancient times could afford?
According to what Mr. Feng said, He Man led her team to the indicated location.
I didn't move. When Mao Jianming and the others saw that I didn't move, they didn't move either.
He Man noticed something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong, little sister?"
"Sister Man, if this is really a big tomb, we should report it," I said.
After hearing what I said, Mr. Feng looked at me with disdain.
"Don't worry. Yesterday, the reception staff heard that I was coming here and processed the formalities for me overnight. If it is really a tomb, we will work with local people to carry out protective development. Don't you trust me?" He Man said.
"Of course I trust Sister Man." Hearing her say that, I put aside my worries.
Led by Mr. Feng, we crawled to the palm near the middle finger, which is what Mr. Feng just mentioned as the "right position".
Mr. Feng drew a large human circle and said, "Dig from this circle. The entrance should be right below."
"Go ahead." He Man gave the order.
The accompanying support personnel picked up their tools and began to dig. The crackling sound was incessant, but they couldn't dig any deeper than half a meter before they stopped.
I took a quick look. The pit was filled with solid rock, the same texture as Five Finger Peak. It looked like this wasn't the entrance, but according to feng shui, it should be here. Mr. Feng was right. So what was the problem? I pondered.
After seeing the solid rock, He Man and the others also realized the problem. Mr. Feng frowned, wondering where he had made a mistake in his calculations.
"Mr. Feng, what's this?" He Man asked.
"Don't be impatient, Miss He. Let me think about it carefully." Mr. Feng said.
Mao Jianming was smiling at this time, and he seemed to be very happy to see Mr. Feng being humiliated. Then he looked at me, as if to say: You see, he is just like that.
When I saw his expression, I smiled implicitly.
It's already noon, I'm thirsty and tired, so I just sit on the ground and take a rest.
The sun is very hot today and everyone is sweating.
I wiped the sweat off my forehead with my hand, looked at the sun, and said, "Why is it so hot today?"
The higher the mountain, the colder the top, but it is so hot here.
"Hmph, this place is Lao Yang Ju, the yang among yangs, how can it not be hot?" said Mr. Feng.
"Although this place fits the feng shui characteristics of Laoyangju, it is not necessarily Laoyangju." I said angrily.
I am not talking nonsense. Laoyang Bureau is usually built on open plains. I have never heard of one being built on a mountain. Of course, this is only a very small probability.
"Ridiculous," said Mr. Feng.
"You are so powerful, but you still can't find the entrance?" Mao Jianming said.
Hearing this, Mr. Feng's face flushed red, and he was obviously very angry. But what Mao Jianming said was true, and he couldn't refute it.
"Even though I haven't found it yet, I can at least see that this is an old trap. Once I think about it carefully, I will definitely find the entrance. Please rest assured, Miss He." Mr. Feng said.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing. Our primary goal now is to find the entrance. What's the point of you arguing like this?" He Man said.
Mao Jianming walked over to me and sat down, then whispered in my ear, "Can you tell anything?"
I shook my head and said, "He's right, the entrance should be here, but for some reason there's solid rock underneath."
"Look at how proud he is. If we hadn't discovered this place, he would never have found it in a hundred or eighty years." Mao Jianming glanced at Mr. Feng and said.
"Okay, okay, give Sister Man some face." I advised.
After saying that, I looked at the sun. It was so scorching bright that it was really unbearable.
etc!
I suddenly had an idea.
The Lao Yang Xue is a well-placed and unlucky formation, strictly following the Feng Shui layout, without any mistakes. In this pattern, the terrain must be flat, with no raised areas such as hills or earthen mounds. However, before us now lies the Five Finger Peak, a massive protrusion, so this cannot be a Lao Yang formation!
