Mr.
Liu's voice was very illusory, but there was a kind of madness in his eyes, like those fanatical followers of Tibetan Buddhism, pious and fanatical.
Seeing his expression, I was a little interested.
Liu has always been a business tycoon, both in knowledge and in mind, far from being comparable to those country fools, and since he is so sure, there must be some reason I don't know.
I was quietly waiting for Mr.
Liu's next sentence, but he didn't seem to have the meaning of explanation, shook his head, recovered from that crazy state, and said to me with a smile, "Whether it's a story or not, our Liu family started from a fire, and our ancestors have regarded themselves as the descendants of the god of fire for generations, and we have to try it for the last wish of our ancestors." ” As he spoke, Mr.
Liu took the check book from the side, wrote me a check and handed it over.
"This is an advance deposit, and if Mr.
Xiao Zhou agrees, he can take it now."
I looked down and saw that the string of zeros on it made me a little dizzy, and when I counted carefully, there were as many as 500,000.
After thinking about it carefully, I nodded, stretched out my hand and took Mr.
Liu's check, which was considered to be a promise to this matter.
I have to say that so much money is still very tempting to me, but I am not just for money.
After I decided to go out for a walk, I was going to travel around looking for dragon veins, everything has a cause and effect, and Mr.
Liu found me at this time, maybe it was my chance.
What's more, I have also become interested in the story of Mr.
Liu.
Not because of his ancestors, nor because of the Fire Temple or anything, but simply because of the word "Fire God".
Since ancient times, there has been a custom of fire worship in China, just like the ceremony of fixing the stove door when my hometown was built, and it is actually a continuation of fire worship.
From this worship of fire, the god of fire, sacrificial stoves, and other things such as myths and customs gradually derived.
And these customs and sacrifices are also closely related to Feng Shui.
Taking the custom of fixing the stove door as an example, I just know that according to the record in the "Book of the Dead", I know that the direction of the stove door is different, and there will be different feng shui.
But why is feng shui related to the orientation of the stove door?
Perhaps through Mr.
Liu's incident, I can touch on the deeper things of Feng Shui.
Seeing me take the check, Mr.
Liu smiled on his face, patted me on the shoulder very affectionately, and told me that he had to make a little final preparations for this matter, and when everything was in order, he would call me to inform me.
After leaving Liu's head office, I took the check to the bank to exchange cash, and after depositing it in the card, I didn't rush home, but went to the nearby antique market.
Although Mr.
Liu's ancestral tomb is in our county, the company is in Kaifeng, an ancient city hundreds of kilometers away, which must be in the same vein as the old store of the Liu family in the story.
Kaifeng is the famous ancient capital of the Eight Dynasties, although it is not as good as Xi'an, Luoyang, the place where the dragon veins of the world gather, but also the spirit of the clock, even the urban area can also see a lot of ancient buildings, the antique market is unusually prosperous.
From the perspective of the size of the city, the city where I studied is much larger than Kaifeng, but the scale of the antique market, which is ten times that of the city, is not as large as the ancient city of Kaifeng.
After arriving at the antique market, still in the outermost area, I saw the wolf pen, yellow rune paper and other things that I couldn't find last time, and when I asked the price, it was much cheaper than when I first bought it.
But this time I didn't come to buy these things, but to find a compass.
The compass is the compass, the most commonly used thing by feng shui masters, whether it is to see the feng shui of the yang house, or to find the dragon point, it is inseparable from the help of the compass.
The method of direction measurement is extremely difficult and complicated, and the manpower is sometimes exhausted, and more often it still depends on utensils.
Moreover, among the spells of feng shui masters, there are different types of magic weapons, but the most common and practical one is the compass.
Ritual utensils are not made by production, but by warmth, and only feng shui masters above the realm of the earth master, after decades of warmth, can make the utensils have spirits.
Just the artifact and the creature cannot be called a magic weapon, but also have to wait for the master to find the dragon vein, and then point the acupoint, and draw the dragon vein qi to wash itself, and then the utensils that are warmed and nourished with the body can become a magic weapon.
And this is still the most ordinary magic weapon, the really powerful magic weapon, is those earth masters after finding the dragon point, and then recognize the stars, the power of the stars, after becoming a heavenly master, the utensils that are warmed up with their bodies.
There is a saying in Feng Shui, "Ten years to find the dragon's twenty years, it takes forty years to know Yao".
This sentence means that it takes ten years for a feng shui master to learn the dragon vein, twenty years to have the ability to point points, and forty years to distinguish the stars.
This is just to say that the average feng shui master, looking at the feng shui of the yin house and the yang house, it takes decades to learn.
And after learning this, you can embark on the path of the earth master and start the real practice.
And after practicing, you have to go through the road of finding the dragon point and understanding the yao again, and this road is not something that can be completed in a few decades.

It is those people in the famous faction, who have the remnants of their ancestors, and do not need to look for dragons, so they also have to go through the difficulties of "recognizing the dragon, identifying the dragon, and leading the dragon", and consume several years, or even decades.
As for the rest, it can only depend on talent and chance.
And only after searching for dragons, pointing points, and recognizing Yao, can the earth master take an otherworldly step and become a heavenly master.
Since ancient times, there have been very few people who can become heavenly masters, and naturally, that kind of top-level magic weapon is also a rare existence in the metaphysical world.
So this time, I just bought an ordinary compass, and if I could find an old object used by a real feng shui master, I would find a treasure.
As for such a thing, I don't dare to think about it at all.
Walking through one store after another, I saw a lot of compasses, but they were all modern metal compasses, and even some compasses that combined with high-tech, which could display values such as latitude and longitude, altitude, etc., and I couldn't laugh or cry when I saw it.
Strictly speaking, in the use of the compass, many things are also implicated in values such as latitude and longitude, but the ancestors have their own set of philosophies in it.
I searched for several stores, and finally found an old shop with a large number of wooden compasses.
I was just overjoyed, but when I picked it up and looked closely, I found that these compasses were all carved.
The carved compass is rigid, and the effect of feeling Qi is very poor, the really useful compass must be a handwritten compass, which can feel Qi, and can be like yellow rune paper, leading Qi into it, which is the compass that can be warmed in the hands of Feng Shui masters, and may eventually become a compass for magic weapons.
I'm a little discouraged, but when I think about it, in today's society, there are very few real feng shui masters, and the kind of handwritten compass that can be used by the earth master, I'm afraid that except for those who have reached the realm of the earth master, others don't know at all, and it's too difficult to buy a piece.
Holding on to the last bit of hope, I asked the owner of the shop who was napping in the Taishi chair for advice.
"Boss, is there any such old handwritten compass?"
The boss with messy gray hair squinted his eyes and looked at me in a strange way, then lowered his eyelids again and muttered, "You little baby still knows the handwritten compass, but where is that thing now?"
When the four old ones were broken, they were all smashed. ” His words immediately reminded me of the story of the old principal, in that special era, too many things happened, and Feng Shui metaphysics was also devastated, which led to the loneliness of Feng Shui metaphysics today.
In desperation, I was about to pick a random compass and ask the boss to install it for me, but at this time, the boss with drooping eyelids suddenly said, "I really want a handwritten compass, you go to Jiang Maniac's shop to take a look, maybe you can find one, go out and turn right to the last one." ” I was stunned, and my heart was overjoyed, I had already decided to give up, but I didn't expect this boss to provide me with a clue.
The boss helped me, I have already got the compass in my hand, and I am embarrassed not to buy it, and when I wanted to ask the boss the price, the boss waved his hand, and urged me in an impatient tone, "If you want to buy a handwritten compass, go quickly, and rub it here." ” This boss has a strange temper and a good heart, obviously not wanting to take advantage of me.
Urged by him like this, I simply put down the compass in my hand, sincerely thanked the boss, and went out to find the ginger madman shop he said.
Following the owner's prompts, I soon found a storefront.
This shop is in the innermost part of an alley, the location is extremely remote, and the façade is still small, it looks tattered, and the plaque at the door only writes the two big words "old shop", which looks very strange.
