Ultimate Ultimate Volume II: Descendants of Chi You

Chapter 22 Qi Yu's Autobiography

My surname is Qi, and my single name is a feather.

I am a descendant of Qi Tiezui in the famous Laojiumen Lixiasanmen on Changsha Road.

Tiezui went straight to the point. Hearing the name Qi Tiezui, he knew that this school was related to fortune-telling.

The knowledge of fortune-telling, from ancient times to the present, has been mysterious or disdainful in the eyes of others. Some people think it is a means of defrauding money, and some people think it is a revelation from an unknown power that exists in the dark.

I was naturally curious about this when I was young, does fate really exist?If there is, can we break it?

My father, Qi Tiezui, was extremely accurate in fortune-telling, and many people who came to buy things at the handicap came for divination.It is said that all fortune tellers are to spy on the secrets of the sky, so if they want to make a living by this, they must either lose their eyesight, or they will never be seen again.

The hexagram given by the father seems to have circumvented the rules by speculation.But I was born with weaker eyesight than ordinary people. I don't know if it is the retribution brought about by this speculation.

Does retribution really exist?

To inherit family learning, it is natural to learn the Book of Changes and gossip.

When my father began to teach me Yi Li, he first told me two stories, about a stone box with dragon patterns and Fuxi's gossip.Before that, I still want to repeat a concept about soil layers.

Whether it is an archaeologist or a Tufuzi, they all have a concept of soil layers.Different soil depths represent different ages. For example, if you dig down from the top of a palace ruins in the past dynasties, you must first excavate the palace remains of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, then the Song Dynasty, and then the Tang Dynasty. The deeper it is, the longer the history of the corresponding cultural relic.

This dragon pattern stone box is located deep in the Qinling Mountains. It took an army of death row prisoners to excavate it for four years before finally digging it out.But the original intention of this death row army is not to dig this box.They will carry out this activity because they found an ancient bronze pillar in the mountains of the Qinling Mountains. Under the emperor's instruction, the army dug up and down and found that it was an ancient bronze tree.

Why this dragon stone box was dug up when excavating the ancient bronze tree? My father didn't say this question at the time, but he said another deduction of his own:

This stone box with dragon patterns is related to the legendary origin of Fuxi's gossip - Hetu Luoshu.

"The river produces pictures, Luo produces books, and the sages follow them." This sentence has been passed down for so long that future generations have speculated about it, and scholars of all ages have been arguing endlessly.According to ancient legends, in order to deify the virtuousness of the early leaders, Hetu Luoshu is believed to be engraved by the gods on the backs of dragon horses and turtles. When encountering sages, they will emerge from the Yellow River and Luoshui, showing auspiciousness.

There are also scholars who pay attention to ideological research and believe that Hetu Luoshu is actually the result of the observation of water patterns by the sages.This conjecture is more romantic and sounds reasonable, but because there was no writing in that era, it lacks the support of unearthed evidence.

But my father thinks that Hetu Luoshu is something similar to this dragon pattern stone box.

He had had a chance to touch the box once.It was Master Zhang Dafo who asked him to go to divination.The divination is related to that box.

The box itself has no gaps or locks, but the middle is actually empty, and there are still things inside.In addition to the soil layer where the box is located, it can be known that it has existed for quite a long time.

But the exquisiteness of the box and the complexity of the craftsmanship far exceed the imagination of today's people.Could it be that in ancient times, people at that time had achieved achievements in certain aspects of technology that people cannot achieve today?

At that time, I became deeply interested in the ancient trees that my father mentioned, and planned to visit the Qinling Mountains; later, I did get such an opportunity, and I was with a team named Wu Sansheng. There were some entanglements before I entered Qinling. Generally speaking, we were in a cooperative relationship later, but there was something in him that I didn't like very much, but it was the capital that many people depended on for survival and development.Such things are intangible, and only human beings have them, Ayutthaya.

My dealings with Wu Sansheng was not by chance. It also involved all kinds of grievances and grievances of the old nine sects. It is too complicated to say. If it is written, it may be a novel that can be named Enqiulu.

This matter has to start with an ancient family surnamed Zhang.

Legend has it that people in this family have received various trainings since childhood, and their life span and skills are different from ordinary people.And Master Zhang in the upper three gates of the old nine gates is a branch of this family, but the existence of this branch is not recognized by the family, because they were driven out by the family hundreds of years ago.

Because the Zhang family practiced intermarriage within the family, and one of their family members fell in love with the daughter of a hunter outside the family's hermitage.In order to keep the child in the womb of the Orion's daughter, Zhang Dafoye's ancestors would rather accept torture, eliminate their own characteristics as a tribe, and then leave.

Master Zhang Dafo's ancestors were well aware of the power of their family, so they kept a low profile as their family motto and passed it on to their descendants.But in Zhang Qishan's generation, things have changed, which is related to the changes in society.

The debate on whether "the times make heroes" or "the heroes make the times" has always existed, but the saying "times make heroes" is more widely recognized.Master Zhang Dafo happened to live in the era when the country's feudal social system collapsed.

There are too many bloody storms in this era, and too many people are ups and downs in this era.The warlords want to compete in the Central Plains; the three teachings and nine streams are the timid and the bold.In the end, a new country was established, and there were two large-scale reshuffles.

The first time was the suppression of counter-revolutionaries, and the second time was the ten-year catastrophe.

For Master Zhang, who has experienced troubled times and the first shuffle, the ancestral precept of being a low-key man has gradually been forgotten by him.

At that time, it was believed that man could conquer nature, that deep farming of grain could yield high yields; that people were encouraged to have more children, and that medicine could greatly prolong people's lifespans.

Zhang Qishan once went back to find the Zhang family's ancestral house according to some memories about the Zhang family handed down by his father, but the place was empty. The doors were dragged into disaster.

Yes, catastrophe.

This catastrophe not only affected the first generation of the Old Nine Gates, even their descendants were also cursed by this catastrophe.

At that time, the whole people had a kind of crazy hero worship for the leader. During this period, a large number of folk stories emerged, and these folk stories all endowed the leader with godhood. Some of them described the supernatural phenomena of the leader’s birth and experience, and even had the shadow of heroic epics. .

Under the influence of this fanaticism, the mentality of the leader changed.He wanted to pursue a longer life, a stronger, healthier body.

So a plan was quietly started, and then the members of the Old Nine Sects gathered at Siguniang Mountain. My father always kept secrets about this experience, and all I know is that only a very small number of people left there alive.

The reason why Wu Sansheng and I have intersected is that the Zhang family cannot get rid of the relationship.Not everyone from the Old Nine Sects is willing to participate in the largest tomb robbery event in history, especially my father, because the hexagrams he made up are omens of great evil; The iron mouth is very accurate in divination, if he doesn't go, then the people in the Nine Gates will definitely feel suspicious.

Three people from the nine families of the Old Nine Gates were unwilling to go, and Master Zhang Dafo had laid hands on the children of these three people.

I was one of the three people who got hacked.

I was involved in a huge vortex because of this, and I traveled to many places for this.

I participated passively, but Wu Sansheng was more like taking the initiative.

I'm not interested in the things he cares about, but as a subject who was once locked up for surveillance and research, what I need to care about is whether I will become a terrible monster one day, my consciousness is still there, my body is out of control, and I can't die .

That was horrible.

I reached an agreement with Wu Sansheng. After I came out of Xisha, I helped his girlfriend Chen Wenjin and Mrs. Huo's daughter Huo Ling escape from Golmud, while he helped me cover up so that I could live a normal life for the time being. life.

This time when he entered Qinling, he promised me that "it" would focus on his nephew Wu Xie, so that I would be free from the scope of being searched and monitored.

I don't know how he can convince other people that the other person is me, but it doesn't do me any harm.

From the Xisha incident to now, this is the second time I have seen Zhang Qiling.I tactfully didn’t ask much about him, but from the appearance, he has never changed, and according to what my father described, the leader of the Siguniang Mountain activity many years ago also has exactly the same characteristics as Zhang Qiling, even his name are all exactly the same.

I have a very strong interest in him, but although this person seems to have no desires and desires, and is very reliable under the fighting, he is also extremely dangerous.I had imagined that if I accidentally revealed some secret that he thought I should not know, he would not hesitate to wring my neck.So although I really wanted to dig out his secrets and believed that he had a solution to my physical problems, I didn't dare to reveal the slightest bit in front of him.
