Chapter 900 The Promise in the Forest
The rain had stopped, and Fan Jiannan and others came to the grove to the east of Huokou Village.

"This is it?" King Marshall frowned, "Is this the forest?"

Mr. Du nodded and said, "It should be here. The trees here seem to be old, but they still maintain the state of Jiugong arrangement."

King Marshall turned around in the woods a few times, and frowned in confusion, "But something is not right. I didn't feel any mana fluctuations or traces of other spells at all. Could it be that we were tricked by that Taoist priest?" gone?"

Fan Jiannan walked over, supported a big tree with his hands, shook his head and said, "It's unlikely. Some of the trees here are very old. I don't think these Huashan Taoist priests will guard a lie in the way passed down through generations. There must be a special purpose for these big trees to be planted here. It’s not that there is no mystery in this forest, but we haven’t discovered it yet.”

Mr. Du also nodded and said, "Indeed."

Fan Jiannan looked at the woods and said slowly, "The Nine Palaces represent the earth in the Qimen Dunjia. The earth is the base of the Qimen Dunjia. Among the four sets, only the ground is not moving, it is sitting on a mountain. However, the Nine Palaces Algorithm can represent too many meanings. I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to understand the mystery of it."

Mr. Du thought for a while and said, "Could it be related to the order of the flying stars in the Nine Palaces? Taiyi, the god of Qi, acts as if he is waiting. Four positive and four-dimensional, it is the residence of the eight trigrams god, so it is also called the palace. Tian As soon as he travels, it is like the Son of Heaven going out on a hunting tour to save Fangyue’s affairs. Every time he dies, he will return. The palace of the eight trigrams is returned to the middle palace every fourth trip. The residence of Beichen in the center is called the Jiugong. Try to walk through this forest in the order of the stars, maybe you can find something."

What Mr. Du said is that a week is formed from the sequence of one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine.A week later, it will be still in the middle, and then it will start from the beginning.Later, this "walking" method was called "Yu step" by Taoism.These are the most basic footwork in the eyes of metaphysicians like them.

So after Mr. Du finished speaking, he started from the central palace, and walked in the order of the flying stars in the nine palaces in this forest.Of course, King Marshall was not to be outdone, and followed closely behind.The two of them walked in the basic direction of Yubu in the Nine Palace Forest, one in front and one behind.

But Fan Jiannan still stood there motionless.

Feng Yuan pushed him lightly and said, "Uncle is right, why did you try it?"

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "According to Zhang Xixian's words, since the Song Dynasty, there have been countless masters of metaphysics who have come to this Nine Palace Forest. They have not been able to solve this secret, so it is not easy. If only relying on this Yu step walking method You can see through the secrets behind this forest, and there is no need for this forest to exist. You must know that Jiugong Feixing and Yubu may not be very familiar to ordinary people, but they are simply entry-level for people in the art world. Something. I didn't expect it to be that simple. Besides, the Nine Palaces Flying Star is a commonly used spell in Fengshui, and Wei Rushan is an expert in it. Even he failed. It can be seen that the Nine Palaces Flying Star is completely useless .”

Feng Yuan frowned and said, "Then how can we explain this forest?"

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I always feel that there are very complicated things hidden in it, but I don't know where to start. Ancestor Chen Tuan is indeed a generation of masters, and the forest he left behind is really incredible. Guess."

While he was sighing, both Mr. Du and King Marshall came back.Both of them were frowning, and it seemed that they had failed in Yu Bu's attempt just now.

After the two came back, they didn't say a word, they were thinking hard.What if there is really any magic secret hidden in this Nine Palace Forest?Then using Yu steps to test, at least it can mobilize the hidden magical power in this forest.But the two of them didn't find anything. The forest was like an ordinary forest.

King Marshall is worthy of being a master of spells. After thinking for a while, he said, "Since that Taoist Zhang said that this forest will guide us to find the orifice of Xishan Mountain. So, does it represent a certain direction? Not us There is a magical reaction as imagined. Is it simply pointing to a certain location?"

Fan Jiannan thought for a while and said, "Are you saying that this forest does not have magic techniques or magic formations, so you can't feel the fluctuation of magic power. But you use a more primitive and direct way to point out the direction of Huashan's orifice? "

King Marshall nodded and said, "The nine palaces represent the directions that the number one of water is in the north, the number of water is six in the northwest, the number of fire is seven in the west, the number of fire is two in the southwest, the number of gold is nine in the south, the number of gold is in the southeast, and the number of wood is in the southeast. The number three is in the east, the wood number is eight in the northeast, and the earth number is five in the center. I wonder if the old ancestor Chen Tuan also used this method, using the nine palaces to indicate the direction?"

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "Don't think about it, I calculated it just now. If you calculate it according to this method, the conclusion you can draw is that it has been restored ninety-nine times, and it is still the location of the central palace. It means that this forest has not come out at all."

"So what? Maybe Patriarch Chen Tuan planted this Nine Palace Forest here just to cover up the fact that the Huashan Aperture is here." King Marshall sneered. "It's not impossible."

But Mr. Du shook his head and said, "I don't think it's that simple. If this is the case, Patriarch Chen Tuan wanted to hide the Huashan Aperture. If the Huashan Aperture is here, and the Jiugong Forest he planted is chosen Doesn’t it look like a cover-up here? It’s definitely not right.”

Fan Jiannan also nodded and said, "That's not the case."

King Marshall pondered, "That's right, the Huashan Aperture should naturally be a node where the Huashan Mountains converge, not the forest at the foot of the mountain. This is somewhat confusing."

Mr. Du thought for a while before saying, "I think we should start with Chen Tuan. Only when you understand what kind of person he is, can you understand his original intention of planting this piece of Jiugong Forest. This person is a master of metaphysics, there is no need for that. Doubtful. Moreover, he converted to Taoism in his later years and became a Taoist priest. He enjoyed high prestige in the history of Chinese Taoism and thought, and was listed as a high-level Taoist by Taoism.

"We all know what you said. Can you say something new?" King Marshall mocked.

"This person's technique is unpredictable, and it is said that Ziwei Doushu and Wuji Diagram are both created by Chen Tuan." Mr. Du said in a deep voice, "but his most famous is "Zhengyi Xinfa"!"

"Zhengyi Mind Method?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"I've heard of this." King Marshall frowned. "In the history of Taoist Yi-ology, this "Zhengyi Xinfa" occupies an important position. It advocates using the 'living method' to self-understand Yidao, which embodies a kind of transcendence. Acquired knowledge of right and wrong, and the consciousness of congenital awareness. Although it has constructed a universe transformation model from Wuji to Taiji, it also believes that everything in the world is illusory and uncertain.”

Mr. Du nodded and said, "That's right, that's what I want to say. Tai Chi is born from Wuji! Ancestor Chen Tuan is the creator of Xiantian Diagram and Wuji Diagram. Then it is very likely that this forest looks like a nine palace arrangement, but it jumps out. Infinity beyond the limitation of spells. So we can't feel the existence of magic power, because this kind of existence is completely outside our perception."

"Existence beyond perception?" Fan Jiannan muttered to himself, "Is there really something beyond the perception of the practitioner in this world?"

"I think it's just nonsense, Taoism's mysterious and mysterious things. It sounds reasonable, but it is actually useless." King Marshall shook his head and said, "Anyway, I don't believe it!"

However, Fan Jiannan's eyes lit up, "I remembered that the theory of Taiji diagrams was also created by Chen Tuan. As an entity that existed in the innate world of Wuji, he put forward the propositions of 'Wuji is Taiji' and 'Taiji itself is Wuji'. It is 'existence born of Wuji' The meaning of '. Take the infinite as the origin of all things. The truth of the infinite, the essence of the two and five, are wonderfully combined and condensed. The stillness is the nature of the infinite. The movement of Taiji comes from the stillness of the infinite. The stillness attributed to the infinite, the movement of Taiji It is temporary and relative, but Wuji is eternal."

"But what does this have to do with this forest?" Feng Yuan asked a little strangely.

Fan Jiannan excitedly said, "I thought of it, he actually built a universe evolution process: from Wuji to Taiji, then to Yin and Yang Qi, then to the Qi of the Five Elements, and then everything and human beings. What we can usually feel The magical power he obtained is nothing more than the energy of Yin and Yang and the energy of the five elements. But the energy of infinity he proposed is something beyond these."

Feng Yuan was still a little puzzled, but Mr. Du stopped her from continuing to ask, and said in a low voice, "Listen to him first."

Fan Jiannan was still dancing with excitement, "Do you know what this means? It means a cognitive leap in the field of magic. Just like what is said in the Tao Te Ching, an elephant has no form, a great sound has no sound, and the great way has no action." This is still the case when we deduce it to our cognition today. Because of the movement of celestial bodies, the collision and explosion of stars, these truly big scenes are invisible to our naked eyes, so they are called invisible elephants. And human ears There are also limitations, and only sound waves in a certain frequency band can be heard. Ultrasonic waves are undetectable to humans."

"You mean, this is called Dayin Xisheng!" Mr. Du nodded.

"That's right! Here comes the most important thing. Dao Wuwei!" Fan Jiannan said excitedly, "Tao is the law. Our magicians' techniques are this kind of law. The real law is hidden under the plain appearance. Just Like this forest. We don't see anything strange at first glance, we don't even feel any magic power. It's not that the magic power doesn't exist, it's just that we feel it in the wrong way. We can't perceive it in the usual way The magical power here. Because this is Wuji beyond Taiji. It cannot be grasped by reason, nor can it be recognized by emotion, only by understanding!"

"Comprehension?"

"Yes! Comprehension!" Fan Jiannan took a deep breath and said, "I now know why those practitioners, including Wei Rushan and Feng Yuan's parents, were injured by the technique!"
