Start with a photographic memory and build a memory palace

Chapter 214 System: Luohe Books
……

Just as Wu Wen leaned over.

Master Guo, who was sitting firmly on the chair, smiled slightly and suddenly jumped up.

The right hand shot out and went straight for Wu Wen's throat.

In response, Wu Wen simply took a half step back, raised his upper body, and avoided the opponent's attack without leaving a trace.

However, when the opponent saw that his move failed, he did not stop, but continued to attack.

He pounced forward, stretched out his hands, and pointed his fingers straight at Wu Wen's eyes as if he was taking a pearl from a bag.

Wu Wen waved his sleeves and moved his body backwards, easily avoiding the attack again.

Master Guo did not continue the pursuit.

After Wu Wen paused, he asked calmly, "Master Guo, do you want to continue testing my abilities?"

"You are very good!"

Grandmaster Guo smiled and praised him, then added: "However, it seems that your skills were not taught by Li Chunfeng."

After hearing this, Wu Wen first bowed to Li Chunfeng beside him, and then replied:
"A master can only lead you to the door, but practice depends on yourself. It was my mentor Li Chunfeng who taught me many things, and because of this, I have realized more things."

Hearing this, Grandmaster Guo laughed again and turned to look at Li Chunfeng: "You are a good disciple!"

With that said, he walked outside.

Li Chunfeng raised his hand slightly, indicating that he should be seen off.

After Grandmaster Guo disappeared, Wu Wen asked his master Li Chunfeng, "Master, how come this person is here?"

"He has something to do and wants to invite me along."

Li Chunfeng simply answered briefly and then stopped talking, as if he didn't want to answer the question or tell Master Wu Wenguo about what he was looking for.

Change the subject.

Li Chunfeng sat down on the chair and asked with concern about some things that happened to Wu Wen after he left Dingxiang.

Wu Wen also sat next to him and told him some of his experiences.

From leading the army to attack the Turkic Wuchuan, encountering the Turkic high priest, entering the Turkic sacrificial site, and meeting the sacrificial spirits... going to Gaochang, the underground space of Huangshayuan, fighting against Jiutong... and exploring the bottom of Loulan Lake.

Except for some private details, Wu Wen told his master everything.

After listening to his rich and amazing experiences, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but sigh: "Ah~, you are now ready to become a master!"

Hearing this, Wu Wen immediately replied: "No, I still have a lot to learn from you, Master."

Hearing this, Li Chunfeng immediately reacted, and then asked with a smile: "It seems that you came to see me not just to see me, tell me, what do you want to ask me?"

Wu Wen stood up and respectfully asked Li Chunfeng, "Master, I want to learn from you about the 'Hetu Luoshu'."

The Book of Changes states: "The map came out of the Yellow River, the book came out of the Luo River, and the sages followed them."

The River Map and the Luoshu, these two mysterious patterns that have been passed down for thousands of years, contain profound principles of the universe and astrology. They are revered as the "Magic Cube of the Universe" and are the source of Chinese culture and the Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

Ever since Wu Wen comprehended the relationship between the ripple pattern and numerology, he has begun to study the River Chart and Luoshu in depth.

The mystery of Luoshu Nine Palaces lies in its unique arrangement of numbers.

By following the formula of "wear nine and step on one, three on the left and seven on the right, two and four are shoulders, six and eight are feet", you can deduce a unique Sudoku layout.

Whether you look at it horizontally, vertically or diagonally, the sum of the three numbers is fifteen.

This fully and perfectly demonstrates the balance and harmony of the Luoshu Nine Palaces.

If we continue to study in depth, we will find that in the layout of the Luoshu Nine Palaces, there is a close correspondence between numbers and directions.

Among them, nine represents the Li fire in the due south, one corresponds to the Kan water in the due north; three is located in the Zhen wood in the due east, and seven is located in the Dui metal in the due west.

Two corresponds to Kun Earth in the southwest, four is located in the southeast Xun Wood; six is Qian Gold in the northwest, and eight is in the northeast Gen Earth.

"Five" is in the central position and is the core hub, governing the four directions and four seasons.

Unlike other numbers, it does not have a clear single direction, but serves as the balance point and connection point of the entire layout, coordinating the relationship between other directions, symbolizing a power that commands the overall situation and reconciles all parties. This clever correspondence between direction and number not only reflects the beauty of balance of the Luoshu Nine Palaces, but also contains profound mathematical principles.

As for the River Map.

It uses ten numbers to integrate the concepts of the five directions of east, south, west, north, and center, the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, yin and yang, as well as heaven and earth, to construct a mathematical model that encompasses everything in the universe.

In graphical representation.

The white circle represents yang, symbolizes the sky, and also corresponds to odd numbers.

The black dots represent Yin, symbolize the earth, and correspond to even numbers.

By combining heaven and earth with the five directions, and coordinating yin and yang with the five elements, a complete and rigorous system is formed.

The profundity of the River Map and Luoshu is beyond imagination.

Ever since Wu Wen began his comprehension and research, one third of his inner computing power has been used to deduce the River Map and Luoshu.

Even in the fierce battle against the Sacrifice Spirit and the Nine Vine, he did not mobilize or stop the operation of this part of the computing power.

However, the deeper Wu Wen dug, the more he felt the unfathomable depth of the River Map and Luo Shu.

This feeling made him realize the limitations of his personal power, so he asked his master Li Chunfeng for advice.

In response to Wu Wen's request for advice, Li Chunfeng took him into his secret research room again without saying a word.

This time, Li Chunfeng did not hold back at all.

He directly showed Wu Wen the results of his years of painstaking research on the River Map and Luoshu.

It was a magnificent painting of the starry sky.

When Wu Wen saw the map of the celestial bodies drawn on it, his eyes were instantly attracted and he stared at it closely.

Li Chunfeng was not surprised by this. He showed a confident smile on his face, then stood aside and began to teach Wu Wen.

While observing the scroll, Wu Wen also pricked up his ears and listened carefully to his master's instructions.

According to what Li Chunfeng said.

The River Chart is essentially a star map.

The "River comes out of the map" mentioned in the Book of Changes does not refer to the Yellow River, but the Milky Way.

The River Chart takes shape on the earth and forms an image in the sky.

In the sky, it represents the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions.

When formed on the ground, they are Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise and Bright Hall.

The image, numbers and principles of the River Chart are extremely simple and easy, yet profound and infinite.

The black and white dots arranged in several arrays on the River Map contain endless mysteries.

As for the meaning of "Luoshu".

In fact, it is a "vein map", a pattern that depicts the changes in the universe.

Therefore, the River Map and Luoshu are actually a system that arranges the time, direction, and seasonal yin and yang changes according to the stars.

The numbers from one to ten in the River Chart are the numbers created by heaven and earth.

The numbers from one to nine in the Luoshu represent the changes of heaven and earth.

If all things have qi, they have form; if they have form, they have quality; if they have quality, they have number; if they have number, they have image.

The five elements of Qi, shape, quality, number and image are simulated and expressed using the Heluo Bagua diagram.

They are cleverly combined and integrated into one, thus constructing an operating model in which the universe and time and space are unified and all things are generated and evolved.
