Portable Taoyuan Space

"Old Chen, is this okay?" Lin Xiao asked. ⊥,

"What's wrong, didn't I remind you all?" Chen Xuan replied indifferently.

"Reminder? Mr. Chen, when did you remind me?" Lin Xiao asked puzzled.

"Think about it carefully, what I just said." Chen Xuan pretended to be closed.

"What I just said." Lin Xiao thought about it, went through what Chen Xuan said before, and found that there was no hint at all.

"Mr. Chen, I still don't understand." Lin Xiao said in shame. He thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand what it meant.

"Think about what I said before, is there anything special about it?" Chen Xuan continued to play tricks and said mysteriously.

"There are 49 pillars, hiding crystal balls of seven colors. The task is to find crystal balls of seven different colors and return here safely with the crystal balls. Only then can we advance. Old Chen, what you said before This is it, right?" Lin Xiao repeated Chen Xuan's previous words.

"Well, that's about it." Chen Xuan nodded.

"Just this one sentence, is there any hint?" Lin Xiao thought about it for a long time, but still didn't notice it.

"Lin Xiaoyou, what do you think is special about this sentence? That is to say, what is special about it, can you see it?" Chen Xuan slowly explained.

"What's special? It's just a very common sentence, what's so special about it?" Lin Xiao asked in surprise.

"Think again." Chen Xuan said expectantly.

"Could it be 49 and 7?" Lin Xiao's head was almost dizzy, if there was anything special about it.It's just two numbers.

"Xiaoyou Lin's guess is right, the reminder is among these two numbers." Seeing that Lin Xiao had guessed it, Chen Xuan nodded and said.

"49 and 7? Is there anything special about it?" Lin Xiao gestured with two numbers without any clue.

"Let me talk about the number 7 first. In the modern vernacular, the meaning of the number 7 is the mysterious starry sky." Chen Xuan explained.

"Could it be that some kind of crystal ball is in the sky?" Lin Xiao immediately interrupted when he heard this.

"Not in the sky." Chen Xuan shook his head.

"Listen to me and you will understand." Chen Xuan no longer pretended to be mysterious.

"The worship of "7" originated in the primitive days. In the ancient society where productivity and science were extremely backward, the ancients hoped that the mysterious starry sky could tell them something. The ancients believed that there was a relationship between man and the stars. The human soul is a part of the sky Therefore, the status of astrologers in ancient society was very important." Chen Xuan can be said to be very knowledgeable, even read and memorized some such remote books.

"The Semites who established the ancient Babylonian Kingdom believed that the Seven Stars were all gods, and worshiped them all. They also believed that they took turns to govern and ruled the vicissitudes of the world. Therefore, the ancestors of the Semites evolved their awe of the Seven Star Gods from their ancient times. They built seven altars, offered seven sacrifices, and bowed seven times... Day after day, year after year, gradually, "seven" was abstracted from their pious totem worship rituals. It has become a grand symbol, and finally integrated into the new monotheistic religion." Chen Xuan started to show off his ink, and he was also eloquent, and Gao Qiao and the others next to him had such expressions on their faces, and they knew that Chen Xuan used to It seems that Takahashi and others have been destroyed a lot.

"Wait, Mr. Chen, does this have anything to do with the answer?" Lin Xiao raised his opinion.

"This, let me finish first, okay?" Chen Xuan said a little embarrassedly, he knew that he had committed an old problem again, and wanted to show off when he opened his mouth. This is a habit, and it is difficult to correct.

"This traditional cultural influence has developed into modern times, so the word "7" has become a sacred and mysterious number in English-speaking countries. It has a wide and far-reaching impact on Western culture and even the culture of the entire world. It affects people. All aspects of work and life. For example, there are "seven sages of Greece", "seven bishops", "seven virtues", "seven deadly sins", "seven heavens", "seven gifts of God", "seven sacraments" , "Seven Patron Saints", "Seven Great Deeds of Goodness" and so on. All of these fully reflect the widespread use of "seven" in religious culture." Chen Xuan ignored Lin Xiao's confused expression, and finally It's easy to seize the opportunity to show off your background, how can you let it go.

"After talking about the foreign 7, let's talk about the domestic 7." Chen Xuan drank his saliva, it was difficult to say so much at once, and his mouth was a little thirsty.

Lin Xiao was stupefied with Chen Xuan's eloquence. He didn't expect that Chen Xuan still had such a side, he was just destroying people. After talking for a long time, he didn't even mention the main points, which was completely the opposite of his usual self. .

"In traditional Chinese culture, 7 is the sum of yin and yang and the five elements. This is the so-called "harmony" state of Confucianism, and also the so-called "Tao" or "Qi" of Taoism, which are closely related to "goodness" and "beauty". Looking at traditional Chinese culture and Western culture, the meaning of the word "7" is auspicious, auspicious, noble and broad, and it represents a combination of ancient natural science and technology and humanities." Chen Xuan said.

"Huh? No more?" Lin Xiao waited for Chen Xuan to talk again. Unexpectedly, after only one sentence, Chen Xuan stopped. After waiting for nearly a minute, Chen Xuan had no intention of continuing to speak, and was stunned. asked after a while.

"No more, does Xiaoyou Lin still want to hear it? Then I can continue." Chen Xuan said with a happy face, he thought Lin Xiao would like to listen to his long speeches.

"No, no, Mr. Chen, hurry up and reveal the answer to the mystery. What does 7 have to do with the reminder?" Lin Xiao cried and shook his head like a rattle, thinking to himself, who wants to continue listening to these, I want to know answer.

"Hmm!! Hasn't Lin Xiao figured it out yet?" Chen Xuan was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Lin Xiao must have realized something after he had said so much.

"Ah? Mr. Chen, what did you say?" Lin Xiao was at a loss. As for the long speech just now, it was fine if he didn't fall asleep. There is no answer in it.

"Don't understand, then let me explain to you." Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"No, no need." Lin Xiao waved his hands hastily.

"Okay, Lin Xiaoyou, I won't tease you anymore. 7, it represents the Big Dipper. Look to the north, do you see those hillsides? The so-called crystal balls are buried inside." Chen Xuan revealed the answer.

"Then Mr. Chen, what's the use of talking so much just now?" Lin Xiao looked at Chen Xuan speechlessly with a dark face, and said what was going on after talking so much.

"This, haha..." Chen Xuan smiled awkwardly, he couldn't say that he suddenly wanted to show off his knowledge.

"This deception is really miserable." Lin Xiao sighed to those who entered the 49 pillars.

The pillars are placed on the west side, while the real place where the crystal ball is buried is on the north side. This is completely opposite. Lin Xiao mourned for two seconds for the contestants.

"By the way, Mr. Chen, isn't there two numbers? What is the meaning of 2?" Lin Xiao suddenly remembered that the hint Chen Xuan just said seemed to be more than one, and there was another 49.

"From 0 to 0 is the evolution of the Taoist cosmology, 81 is Taiji, the "nothingness" of nothingness, the chaotic Dao state, it is difficult to express with images and symbols, so the ancients used a circle to represent it, o It is chaos, It is also Hunyuan, Xiantian one qi, Hunyuan one qi. It is the most mysterious and incredible state at the beginning of Dao. Since we use an o to represent "nothing", it is already the beginning of "being". The so-called Dao generates one, since this one is produced, it has a body, the body and the external void form a contrast relationship, the body of the Dao is Yang, and the external void is Yin. This is the so-called Tai Chi Sheng Two appearances. Dao begets one, one life two, two begets three. Refer to Tao Te Ching, three represents heaven, earth, man and three talents, four represents four images, five represents five elements, and so on. It is the same as Yili. Nine is the extreme number. The largest single digit number is a yang number. Nine nines are 81, which is the number of pure yang of the yang of the anode. Why do Chinese people like yang and dislike yin? It is said in the Tao Te Ching that everything bears yin and embraces yang The living are yang and the dead are yin, and yang is beneficial to the living. Of course we want auspicious numbers. So nine and 49 are the numbers that ancient people liked. The same is true for seven, seven, and [-]." Chen Xuan once again made a long speech, It made Lin Xiao's face turn green, can you stop being so foolish?Who wants to listen to this, I want to know what the answer is, Lin Xiao seems to have thousands of horses galloping in his heart, the corners of his eyes keep twitching, trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Stop, I said Mr. Chen, I want the answer." Lin Xiao shouted hurriedly, feeling that he was going to explode if he endured it.

"Lin Xiaoyou, don't worry, let me explain slowly." Chen Xuan still had a calm expression on his face, and he didn't see Lin Xiaokuai's darkened face at all.

"Tao follows nature, "Da Yan's number is fifty, and its use is nine out of forty." The ancients' fortune-telling methods are divided into two types: divination and divination. Divination is mainly based on tortoise shells, and divination is mainly based on yarrow. Divination The method of starting hexagrams is explained in detail in "Book of Changes. Xici". Take fifty roots of yarrow, leave one unused, and only use 49 roots for starting hexagrams. It is generally believed that the number of Dayan is fifty, so five Ten yarrows represent everything in the world. The unused one represents Tai Chi before the world was born, so only 49 yarrows are used in actual fortune-telling. I want to let Xiaoyou Lin understand what is the one that escapes, and the second A reminder, which is what I said before, the one to escape." Chen Xuan, who had been talking nonsense for a long time, finally returned to the topic.

"The one who escaped?" Lin Xiao asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it's the one who escaped." Chen Xuan nodded affirmatively.

"That is to say, the answer to the mystery is one?" Lin Xiao asked uncertainly.

"Yes." Chen Xuan nodded.

"What's the point of this?" Lin Xiao was confused. After talking about it, why not convert the concept of 49 into 1 in a different way. As for talking so much nonsense, I still have no idea at all. (To be continued..)
