Notes on Tomb Raiders of Liu Bowen's Descendants

Chapter 3 The Crow House (2)
Moreover, how could he be sure that his wallet must have been stolen by these thieves?If it can be confirmed, then the early police also caught these thieves.There is a policeman almost every few steps at the West Railway Station, and they will not waste any time to let the thieves escape.

Thinking of this, Chang Sheng became interested, and he was not in a hurry to send a few thieves to the station branch office. He deliberately asked the young man, "You lost your wallet. Maybe other thieves stole it. Are you so sure that the wallet is with me?"

"Brother, why don't you check to see if there are any of the thieves you got with my ID card in the wallet. By the way, my name is Liu Ji."

Chang Sheng took out the wallets he found from the thief, opened them one by one, and was stunned.Sure enough, there was the ID card of the young man opposite in the wallet, and the smile on the photo was exactly the same as the young man's smile at the moment.

"How do you know?" Chang Sheng blurted out.

The young man smiled mysteriously, "It's calculated, do you believe it?"

Chang Sheng pondered for a long time in his heart, half-doubting about this statement.In Beijing's Temple of Heaven, Temple of Earth, and Lama Temple, there are quite a few fortune-telling and divination businesses. Every day, faithful men and women come to ask about good or bad luck and their future.But for this matter, Chang Sheng felt that it was a bit too mysterious.He was not sure, just relying on the time of a person's birth or the few palm prints on his hand, he could judge a person's good or bad luck, or the luck in front of him.

However, when Chang Sheng was a scout, he also encountered many strange things that modern science could not explain, which made him feel that the world is not as simple as what he learned in books or imagined by most people. There is a special factor in it.

However, since it was confirmed that the wallet belonged to this young man, Chang Sheng would of course return the wallet.However, according to the procedure, the young man needs to go to the branch office with him, fill out a lost and found form, and then make a record, which is in line with the rules.

Liu Ji took his luggage and followed Chang Sheng to the sub-bureau.Chang Sheng chatted with him casually: "Is this your first time in Beijing?"

"No, I have traveled before, but this is really the first time I want to settle down in Beijing and live all year round."

"Do you have relatives or friends?"

"No."

"Weird." Chang Sheng muttered.Although it is not the Tang Dynasty today, the saying "living in the capital is not easy" still applies.We all know how high housing prices in Beijing are, even renting a house is a big expense.

Looking at the young man's few simple pieces of luggage, he obviously thinks about living in Beijing too easily.At first I thought he had something to rely on, but now it seems that there is something unclear.But no matter how you look at it, the young man in front of him doesn't mean to be young and frivolous.

Liu Ji seemed to have seen Chang Sheng's thoughts, and smiled lightly, "However, before I came, my grandfather gave me an envelope, which contained the address of my family friend in Beijing. But he told me, wait until I find a place After staying for a long time, it’s not too late to look at the address in this envelope.”

"How old is your grandfather?" Hearing what he said, Chang Sheng asked dumbfoundedly.

"Don't worry, my grandfather is definitely not confused." Liu Ji raised his eyebrows, "His divination skills are much higher than mine. I believe he must have a reason for doing so."

Seeing him mentioning his grandpa with high spirits, he looked leisurely and fascinated, but after he went to work, he moved out from home to live alone, and the room was spacious.Chang Sheng thought that this young man was interesting, so he might as well invite him to live with him temporarily, to see if his grandfather could figure out this little accident that happened suddenly.

Furthermore, Chang Sheng also has his own thoughts. If Liu Ji can really figure it out, although he doesn't need to pay rent to live in his place, but when he handles the case, he has such a demigod by his side, which can be said to be an extra crime-solving radar. Not too much.

The two chatted while walking, and Chang Sheng proposed the idea of ​​letting Liu Ji temporarily settle down with him.Probably seeing that Chang Sheng was competing, Liu Ji agreed generously. In his words, he felt that his grandfather was omnipotent since he was a child, and he wanted to let his grandfather stumble once, which was a relief from his depression.

When the two arrived at the branch office, the branch office saw someone delivering their grades to the door, and the procedures were handled quickly.Hearing from Chang Sheng that Liu Ji was one of the owners, the people in the branch thought that when Liu Ji's wallet was stolen, the thief was caught by Chang Sheng, so they didn't think much about it.After everything was done, the two of them went out to take a taxi and went straight to Chang Sheng's house.

Chang Sheng lives on the edge of the Third Ring Road in Xicheng District, Beijing.When he arrived at his house, Chang Sheng directly helped Liu Ji carry the luggage into the house.Chang Sheng didn't even bother to pour Liu Ji a glass of water, so he urged him to take out the letter and open it.Liu Ji took out a white envelope from his close-fitting clothes, and pulled out a piece of paper from it.

The paper is high-quality rice paper, and a line of sloppy writing is written on it with a brush.This calligraphy is strong and strong, and the stroke is vigorous. If it is used to participate in some calligraphy competition, it will definitely cause a sensation.

After Liu Ji read it, his expression changed, and he opened his mouth to ask, "Your surname is Chang?"

Chang Sheng was stunned, and after reacting, he took the letter paper over.The address written on the letter paper was the same as Chang Sheng's, with the words "Chang Zhai" written at the end.

When Liu Ji heard the door knock, he turned his face away from the computer screen, glanced at it, saw that it was Chang Sheng, and turned away again.

Chang Sheng, who was ordered by his boss to "stop the investigation and go home for vacation", was already suffocated, but he was even more annoyed when he saw Liu Ji, who he thought he could pinch and count, appeared calm and calm. It's not sure if he didn't hit one place, but he figured out his embarrassment and put on such a posture on purpose.

"Yeah, dude, you're free. I haven't been online for half a week since you came here."

Liu Ji quickly manipulated his mage to fight the boss (boss), without turning his head, he said, "You think I'm willing to come, but I'm also very angry, it's not all because of my grandpa."

Chang Sheng took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, sat down on the sofa and took a few sips.Liu Ji had already "exploded" the boss at this time, turned his head, and stared at Chang Sheng with a half-smile, "Why, did something not go your way?"

"I'm fine, but I see that you are not going well."

Liu Ji smiled and counted slightly, "This has nothing to do with me, does it? It's because you encountered a problem. Was it cut off by your superiors about work?"

Chang Sheng stared at him, as if he wanted to see the flowers on his face, and said after a long time: "Jiehe, you should play mahjong. Hey, there is a way, no wonder my grandpa also called you a little fairy. Help me quickly." Brother, do the math, where is the breakthrough in this case. Otherwise, I will pay your rent from now on, hehe..."

After Liu Ji moved in, on weekends, Chang Sheng went back to his parents once, and told Liu Ji's story from beginning to end as an anecdote.The parents were very surprised. Chang Sheng's grandfather also came to be interested. He asked if Liu Ji's hometown was in Zhejiang.The old and the young chatted for a long time. After Chang Sheng's grandfather came out, he admired Liu Ji very much and asked Chang Sheng to entertain him well, saying that the two families were indeed family friends.

"Tell me about the case, let's see if I can help." Seeing that Chang Sheng was a little angry, Liu Ji hurriedly smoothed things over.

Chang Sheng poured the rest of the beer into his mouth, wiped his mouth, told the story from the beginning, even complaining and cursing, and finally threw the beer bottle to the ground, concluding his statement, "Damn, What an evil place, this means that there is a gang committing crimes, using the evil place as a cover. I think the Xu family is relying on power to suppress people."

"The surname is Xu, evil land?" Liu Ji's face became serious, and the words of his former grandfather in Beijing flashed in his mind, "Start as usual, come in when you meet Xu, and you will be enlightened if you enter evil." Others are talking nonsense, but when grandpa said it, he really believed it.Could it be that this series of events is really predestined, and there is an invisible thread manipulating one's own destiny?
In fact, Liu Ji's background is not small, he is from Qingtian, Zhejiang.Although the family background is not obvious, it has a remarkable background. It is the direct descendant of Liu Bowen, a strange man of a generation.There is absolutely no falsehood in this point, it is not a common practice of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix.

Liu Bowen, named Ji, styled Bowen.In the official history, this person was also a great hero in the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that he held up the white jade pillars in the sky and drove the purple golden beams in the sea.Leaving aside the records in official history, in folklore, Liu Bowen is even more legendary and mysterious. He is another figure after Zhuge Liang who can pinch and count, is wise and close to demons.

Such a heaven-defying ancestor, in terms of prosperity and wealth, can be said to be at his fingertips, but Liu Bowen did not leave much blessing to his descendants.

Liu Ji learned from his grandfather since he was a child that before Liu Bowen died, he left three ancestral precepts.One is that the descendants of the Liu family cannot do business for officials.He lamented that he had done too many things against the heavens, that his descendants would be unlucky when they became officials and businessmen, their fortunes would not be obvious, and they would worry about losing their families and families; the so-called wealth in China is not more than three generations, because the ancestors were overdrawn due to the help of luck Due to the luck of the hit, I can't suffer from it.The second is that the Liu family must be passed down from generation to generation, but the descendants of the Liu family are not allowed to take concubines or marry young children because of this.The third is that the descendants of the Liu family have a destiny. When the descendants of the Liu family appear, they need to fulfill their destiny, so that the Liu family can get rid of poverty and become rich and prosperous from now on.

Strange to say, since Liu Bowen, when the descendants of the Liu family got married, their first child must be a boy.But no matter how hard we try, there will be no more imports at home.According to Liu Ji's grandfather Liu Zhong, this is Liu Bowen's cultivation, to the point where he can't follow what he says.That is to say, as long as Liu Bowen's words are uttered, they will become true, which is no worse than the golden words of the emperor Lao Tzu in the legend.

Along with the three wills, there is also Liu Bowen's superb housekeeping skills throughout his life.Although Liu Bowen was proficient in military books, war books, and stratagems, his housekeeping skills were in divination, fortune-telling, feng shui, and thaumaturgy, which few people believe in now.

Few people know that Liu Bowen's mentor is Lai Buyi, a great geomaster in the Song Dynasty.Lai Buyi is a legend in folklore.This person was born in the Northern Song Dynasty, so I don't know how old he lived.It was not until the Southern Song Dynasty that the footprints became apparent.He is mostly active in Lingnan, and his footprints are all over Guangzhou and Fujian. He specializes in searching for dragons and acupuncture points.

It is said that Lai Buyi's geomancy method has the power to change the dynasty and change the dynasty by relying on Fengshui and earth energy to breed a real dragon.

Lai Buyi's mentorship has always been mysterious.It is said that he passed on the mantle of Zhuge Kongming during the Three Kingdoms period.The inheritance of their sect is quite strange, they pay attention to fate, the apprentices they accept do not necessarily have to be in this world, and they don't have to be handed down, as long as they meet talented people, perseverance, and have the third eye, they can be accepted as disciples. Inheritance, the secret method handed down will naturally appear in front of the successor through various arrangements of the previous generation.

Liu Bowen learned the art of geomantic omen. It coincided with the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. The court divided the people into three, six, and nine grades according to their ethnicity. Even a kitchen knife could only be used by one family.The people were outraged, so he wanted to use his own skills to see if he could overthrow Meng Yuan and establish a new dynasty, so he traveled around the world, looking for the dragon's lair, and ended up passing through Fengyang, Anhui, and met the young monk Zhu Chongba.Liu Bowen was shocked, looking at the face of this young monk, he looked like a [-]-year-old monk.But only ten miles away from the temple where Zhu Chongba became a monk, a top-quality dragon cave was discovered.

Under the traction of heavenly secrets, everything is a definite number.Liu Bowen paid for the tomb and helped the young monk move the bones for his parents.It's just that although Zhu Chongba was grateful, he didn't know that the tomb bought by Liu Bowen was the Wulong Chaoyang Cave, which is the sun of the world.

With the power of Fengshui and the help of Zhu Chongba's life, 40 years later, Zhu Chongba changed from a monk to an emperor, changed his name to Yuanzhang, established his capital in Nanjing, and established his country as Ming.But at this time, the world is unified, and no enemy needs the help of the yang energy of the Wulong Chaoyang acupoint to conquer.With the accumulation of yang qi, Zhu Yuanzhang was increasingly forced by the yang qi of the Zhiyang acupoint, and his personality changed drastically-headstrong, irritable and authoritarian, and began to slaughter many heroes.The way of heaven is fair, there is no deviation, five dragons bred real dragons in Chaoyang point, there must be advantages and disadvantages, and no one can solve this disadvantage.

Liu Bowen was well aware of the power of Wulong Chaoyang Point, so he resigned early to seek a way out, and asked Zhu Yuanzhang for a large piece of land. His appearance as a greedy citizen made Zhu Yuanzhang feel that his ambition was not in the world, so he resigned smoothly and returned to his hometown in Qingtian. It can be considered a good end.

Because of passing down such skills, the Liu family has a very high prestige in Qingtian.For hundreds of years, in the eyes of the neighbors, the Liu family have been "little gods".Neighbors from ten miles and eight villages would come to Liu's family for divination when they encountered any problems. When building a house or building a tomb, they had to ask the Liu family for help.

For hundreds of years, the Liu family has tried their best when encountering this kind of thing, but they don't take any money. At most, they accept some pork and vegetables as gifts.Liu Ji once questioned that his family is not a fortune-teller who talks in vernacular, eats and drinks, and pretends to be blind. He relies on real skills, so why can't he make a fortune with this stunt.

Liu Zhong's answer was that he was served by the family law.After a severe beating, Liu Ji was made to kneel for three days, completely eradicating this little thought.But Liu Ji still refused to accept it in his heart.

After graduating from university, Liu Ji was unwilling to go back home to work in agriculture, unwilling to continue the tasteless life of his father's generation showing others Fengshui and divination. He stayed in the city under the pretext of wanting to take the postgraduate entrance examination, but privately opened a software company with his classmates, and wrote it himself. Some software is sold.The two of them were lucky. The source code of a piece of firewall was favored by the bank, and the company's development was on the right track.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ji's grandfather, Liu Zhong, became Cheng Yaojin who killed halfway. After some calculations, he managed to find the company, brought Liu Ji back home, and refused the dividends offered by his classmates.After returning home, they were treated by family law again, saying that Liu Ji had violated the precept of not being allowed to do business in the ancestral precepts, which almost broke the rules of the Liu family.

However, Liu Zhongjing's temperament seemed to have changed drastically after this incident, and Liu Ji felt that something even more strange was yet to come.Originally, it was common for the Liu family to choose places to build graves for others, but Liu Ji never participated in it.The reason is that when he was three years old, he went to play outside the village with his friends in the village, and in order to hide safely when playing hide-and-seek, he boldly hid in the mass grave.As a result, in the evening, the children returned home, but Liu Ji was nowhere to be seen.The Liu family searched around and found him in the mass grave, who had fainted. He was probably frightened or tainted by Yin Qi. Liu Ji developed a high fever. No matter how he was treated, the high fever persisted. At a young age, he was dying and would die at any time.

Fortunately, Liu Zhong came back from visiting friends in Tibet. Seeing this situation, he seemed to think of something, and hurriedly performed a ritual ceremony for him. After the ritual ceremony, Liu Zhong's face, which had been well maintained, seemed to be ten years older.From then on, the Liu family issued a strict order, prohibiting Liu Ji from going to the mountain tombs, saying that Liu Ji's horoscope was very dark, and going to that kind of place would easily cause strange things to happen.

But after the family law service this time, Liu Ji's wounds from the rattan canes had not healed. Liu Zhong took him out of the warm bed in the middle of the night, carried a shovel, and entered the Liu family's ancestral grave in the middle of the night, pointing at the Liu Bowen's tomb, let Liu Ji dig the tomb.
