Oh, talking about this, I need to explain that in Qimen Dunjia, most of the directions of the heavenly stems, earthly branches, and five elements are used in combination. Usually, in the sequence of the formation, there are "Eastern A and Yi Wood, South Bing Ding Fire, and West Geng"
These five palaces are Xinjin, Rengui Water in the north, and Wuji Earth in the middle. There are eight gates on the outside, and they are ever-changing.
And, the "Wuji Tu" palace in the center is called the Zhonggong, and it is also the key to the formation. In the past, in the battle formations in the art of war, those who sat in this position were the commanders, and there were strange layouts of traps.
, most of the things that need to be protected are here. Under normal circumstances, there is no trap in the middle palace, and there is no ambush inside. However, what we encountered this time was different.
This Murong Huang should be a person with a relatively dark heart. No one would have thought that he would leave a beast to guard him at the most critical place. Judging from the records on the stone wall, the beast that resembles a dragon is indeed not a dragon, but
, can barely be regarded as a kind of dragon, and its real name is... mirage.
What mirage is is controversial in the past. When I first came into contact with this word, I found it from a Xinhua dictionary. This word is called "mirage".
Mirage, explained from a scientific perspective, is a natural phenomenon formed by the refraction and total reflection of light. It is a virtual image formed by the refraction of light reflected by objects on the earth through the atmosphere. It is said that at that time, Qin Shihuang was obsessed with immortality.
The reason is because I accidentally saw such a scene on the beach. At that time, in mid-air, pavilions and pavilions stood among it, with pedestrians and horses, just like the ordinary world.
People at that time did not understand mirages, so they regarded this situation as a scene from the legendary overseas fairy mountains. This experience also convinced Qin Shihuang, who experienced it with his own eyes, to believe in the existence of immortals, so he
There is the strange story of Xu Fu's eastward journey.
In reality, there is a difference between "mirage" and "mirage". Although both are illusory scenery, their causes are completely different.
Usually, the "mirage" that people often refer to refers to the "sea city". It is indeed a special scenery produced by the refraction of light in the atmosphere. However, a mirage is completely different from it. According to legend, a mirage is
Illusions created by creatures like mirages. In ancient times, fishermen living along the coast or on the edge of rivers believed that there was a powerful creature hidden in the beach. This thing was called a "mirage".
It's hard to say what a "mirage" looks like. Some people think that a mirage is a very large clam, while others think that a mirage is a type of dragon. Its full name is mirage.
No matter which view you hold on this, basically, people who admit the existence of this kind of thing believe that this is a creature that can spit out mist when it is okay. It can create mist in the sky through the mist coming out of its mouth.
It creates an extremely realistic mirror image. Usually, there are pavilions and pavilions in this scene. As for why it has this ability and habit, different people have different opinions.
Most people think that this is related to its habits. According to rumors, the mirage is not born so big, and it also has a growth process.
According to legend, when the mirage was relatively small, its favorite food was the swallows in the sky, which is what we often call swifts. This kind of swallow likes to make nests under the eaves.
You can't help but stick to the pavilions and pavilions. At this time, the mirage can hide in the dark corner and watch. Once they take the bait, they will pounce on the swallow and eat it.
The scene in this story is reflected on the stone tablet. It is said that when Murong Hui was emperor, for his birthday, a local official on the coast brought a very magical candle. This kind of candle was very big and not very beautiful.
Knowing what kind of animal fat it is extracted from, as long as it is lit on a rainy day, it can create a lifelike illusion in the area illuminated by the candle.
People at that time thought it was very mysterious. Murong Huang also asked his officials if anyone knew the origin of the candle. As soon as he said this, an old official who was very famous at the time said that although he was not sure,
However, I suspect that this thing is not a human object. We should summon the local official who came to pay tribute and ask about it. If there is any heavenly revelation or the like, and we miss it, there will be no chance.
Murong Huang felt that what he said seemed to make sense, so he followed the old minister's suggestion. When the local official came to answer the call, Murong Huang asked him how he made the candles you brought as tribute.
Yes? The other party listens
Finally, he said that in his jurisdiction, there was an old fisherman. This old man was from a poor family and could not afford to pay taxes. However, he had a very strange ability, that is, he could make this kind of candle, which he made every other day.
In a few years, you can make some.
The local official felt that the candle was very magical and felt pity for him as he was old and helpless. He did not want to embarrass him, so he levied the candle as a tax and presented it as a tribute to the palace as a local specialty.
After hearing this story, Murong Huang thought it was quite interesting, so he asked the other party how the old man made the candle, but the local official didn't know much about it and kept hesitating for a long time.
, and couldn’t explain why. During that period, Murong Huang was relatively leisurely. Seeing that the other party couldn’t explain clearly, he didn’t embarrass him. Instead, he found an opportunity to visit privately incognito, and went to the public to find out.
after all.
When he found the old man with his personal bodyguard, he found that the old man was rowing a small boat out to sea. On the small boat, there were two pheasants. The pheasants were alive, not big, and looked like they were only a month or two old.
The little chicken, this thing, was sealed inside by the old man with a tube with many holes. If you think about it, you can't get out.
At that time, Murong Huang pretended to be a businessman and invited a boat to follow him. When he got closer, he asked the old man what the jar was used for.
Hearing this, the other party looked up and down, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed with Murong Huang. Murong Huang was slightly startled when he saw it, and then asked him why he was like this, but the old man said that when the emperor came, he should act like this.
When he said this, Murong Huang and the guards were all stunned. You looked at me and I looked at you. They asked the old man how you could tell. When the other party heard this, he smiled and said, "Murong is the man."
, has the appearance of an emperor, surrounded by dragon energy, and is definitely not comparable to ordinary people, and has the appearance of an emperor.
