Chapter 23 The mystery of the tortoise shell

Fang Yuan was naturally a little surprised when he heard that Shi Guohua was a university professor and the purpose of finding Xiong Mao was to study Feng Shui instruments. But then he thought about it and thought that some high-ranking officials and wealthy people also believed in Feng Shui. So it seemed that the university professor was interested in Feng Shui instruments. It's not a strange thing either.

"Master Fang, Professor Shi is a well-known expert and scholar in the country. The National Education Bureau has used many books compiled by Professor Shi as popular science reading materials..."

During Xiong Mao's introduction, Fang Yuan immediately understood that Shi Guohua was the most typical academic master in the legend.

"It turns out to be Professor Shi. Sorry, sorry." Fang Yuan quickly greeted him. Although his grades in school were not very good, it did not stop him from admiring the top academics.

"Professor Shi, this is Master Fang Yuanfang." At the same time, Xiong Mao continued: "Although Master Fang is young, his eyesight is extraordinary, far better than mine."

"Master Fang is really young and promising."

Shi Guohua smiled slightly, and his gentle and elegant atmosphere was undoubtedly reflected in his movements.

"Don't take it for granted. That's because Boss Xiong is flattering me on purpose." Fang Yuan smiled, then raised his hand and said, "It's better to meet by chance than to invite me. It's rare for everyone to meet each other, so why not sit down and have a cup of tea together."

"Okay." Shi Guohua nodded happily.

After some pushing and shoving, everyone sat down and then asked the waiter to take away Fang Yuan's half-eaten tea and pastries and bring up a new one.

“The tea is good.”

It can be seen that people who study knowledge should be relatively pure, and Shi Guohua is like this. After raising his cup and taking a sip of tea, he directly took out something from the briefcase he carried.

"Master Xiong, what do you think of this thing?" Shi Guohua put the thing on the table and said with interest: "This is something a friend gave me. He said it was a magic weapon. Please help me take a look. Isn’t that right?”

"turtle!"

At this time, Fang Yuan took advantage of the situation and saw what he saw was a copper turtle with a very simple appearance.

The turtle is crawling with its head held high and its expression is leisurely. The eyes are straight, the mouth is slightly open, the front legs are slightly short, the hind legs push hard on the ground, the tail is tapered, and the turtle's back is decorated with bell-shaped polygonal patterns. In short, this is a very special turtle. The unique ornaments, especially the way the copper turtle stretches its head and wags its tail, are quite naive.

"Hey, the stuff is pretty good."

Xiong Mao took a look, with a look of surprise on his face.

"why would you say so?"

Shi Guohua puzzled: "This bronze turtle looks a bit old. I thought it might be an antique, so I asked experts in this field to help identify it and found that it was indeed from the Ming Dynasty. But my friend told me that this is not only an antique, but also an antique. It’s also a magic weapon. I can’t figure out the difference, so I want to ask Master Xiong for advice.”

"Professor Shi, your friend is right, this is indeed a magical weapon." Xiong Mao said with a smile: "And it is a relatively powerful magical weapon."

"How do you say that?" Shi Guohua was very curious: "What's the secret behind it?"

"Of course there is a way." Xiong Mao affirmed: "If I read it correctly, this bronze turtle existed as a magical artifact in the Ming Dynasty. So when something is said to be a magical artifact first, it can be considered an antique if it has been passed down to this day."

"Really?" Shi Guohua was naturally a little skeptical: "Master Xiong, don't be too pretentious and tell me how you came to this conclusion."

"The reason is very simple. Master Fang, why don't you tell me?" Xiong Mao was very smart, but he did not neglect Fang Yuan.

"No no no..."

Fang Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "I won't show off my shame and will concentrate on listening to Boss Xiong's advice."

"In this case, I will just show off a few words and hope that the experts will not laugh when they hear this." Xiong Mao was very polite and actually raised his hand to indicate it.

Fang Yuan was keenly aware that this expert did not seem to be referring to him. He quickly turned around and looked around, only to see that there were very few guests in the teahouse, and there was only one table left by the window.

It was said to be a table, but in fact it was just one person, an old man with silver hair and a white beard.

Fang Yuan looked around and saw that the old man was wearing traditional cloth clothes and shoes. He was not afraid of the cold. There was a cold wind blowing by the window, and his beard and hair were floating slightly, giving him an air of dust. When Fang Yuan looked over, the old man also looked at

They came over, the two looked at each other, and the old man smiled warmly, full of kindness.

"Well……"

Fang Yuan was startled, but couldn't help but smile in a friendly manner. At the same time, he also had a clear understanding in his heart that this old man should also be a Feng Shui master, and a very capable Feng Shui master.

"The reason why I judged that the thing was a magic weapon from the beginning is mainly due to the shape of the bronze turtle."

At this time, Xiong Mao commented carefully, pointed at the copper turtle and said: "I don't know much about antiques, but I do know that Feng Shui turtles, which are generally used as magical tools, have very obvious characteristics."

"What are the characteristics?" Shi Guohua looked around and didn't think there was anything special about the bronze turtle.

"Watch the turtle's back!"

While talking, Xiong Mao touched the texture on the back of the bronze turtle, and then said with a smile: "There are three grids in the center of the tortoise pattern on the back of the turtle, which represent the three talents of heaven, earth, and man. There are twenty-four grids next to it, which represent the twenty-four mountains.

, and at the same time there are ten grids representing the ten heavenly stems. If it is more detailed, there are twelve grids at the bottom of the turtle pattern, representing the twelve earthly branches."

"A turtle shell contains all the codes representing the mysteries of the universe. It can be said to be endless mysteries."

Xiong Mao talked about it: "The reason why the copper turtle can become a magical weapon is largely due to the texture on the tortoise shell. To a certain extent, the aura of the magical weapon is condensed in the tortoise shell. If the texture is not clear enough,

, the aura of the Bronze Turtle is very weak and cannot exert any effect."

"Turtle shell, aura..."

For a moment, Shi Guohua was inevitably a little surprised.

"That's right, I saw that the texture of the copper tortoise shell is clear and natural, so I can be sure that this is a good magic weapon." Xiong Mao smiled, and the occupational disease broke out again: "If Professor Shi is willing to give up, I can do it.

Take it down."

As a Feng Shui master who runs a magic weapon business, when Xiong Mao sees any good magic weapon, his first thought is to collect it at a low price and then sell it at a high price to make a profit.

Shi Guohua laughed off this, and then asked: "Master Xiong, you just mentioned the aura of the magic weapon, so what is this aura about?"

"This... is not easy to explain." Xiong Mao hesitated.

Fang Yuan, who was standing next to him, understood Xiong Mao's concerns. After all, he was not a colleague, and Shi Guohua did not have an in-depth understanding of this aspect. Even if he explained it in detail, it would be difficult for him to understand the meaning.

"I don't think it's hard to explain, but it's impossible to explain."

At the same time, the person sitting next to Shi Guohua, the teacher named Lu Feng, had a look of disdain in his eyes, and he didn't know whether he muttered it intentionally or unintentionally.

"Lu Feng, don't talk nonsense." Seeing this, Shi Guohua frowned slightly, a little displeased. In his opinion, he could not believe it, but he should not question it face to face. This is impolite behavior.

In other words, if it were another time, another place, another occasion, no matter what Lu Feng's attitude was, Shi Guohua wouldn't take it to heart. But now, he was asking Xiong Mao for advice about the Feng Shui magic weapon. Speaking of which, he

It can be regarded as asking for help from others, but Lu Feng sang the opposite tune, which was clearly trying to cause trouble.

Besides, Shi Guohua is getting older and has a more tolerant mentality. He has a broad vision and is open-minded, allowing different things to exist. He does not necessarily have to look at things he does not agree with with prejudice or discrimination.

"Professor Shi, he is obviously deceiving people."

In contrast, Lu Feng is young and energetic. He directly chooses to criticize things that go against his own ideas: "He said that if something is a magic weapon, it is a magic weapon. Is there any standard for judging? There is also aura and so on.

Yes, how to prove the existence of aura?"

This is the key and the most difficult question to answer.

You must know that the aura in Feng Shui is something invisible and invisible to the naked eye. Until now, Feng Shui masters have not been able to provide enough evidence to prove to the public that magical instruments have an aura.

From the perspective of those who doubt Feng Shui, if you say it exists, it exists. If there is no scientific basis, who will believe it?

Anyway, Xiong Mao was definitely speechless regarding Lu Feng's question. Do you want to tell Lu Feng that if you want to know whether the magic weapon has an aura, you need to spend a lot of time researching and exploring until you have enough experience and believe it.

The magic weapon has an aura, and you can feel it...

"Could it be that sincerity leads to spiritual success again?"

Seeing Xiong Mao's silence, Lu Feng felt proud of his future and said even more unreasonably: "Professor Shi, I don't think you should continue to waste your efforts. During this time, you have consulted several Feng Shui masters.

, but they can’t explain what the aura is at all. They are either trying to make things up, or they are just talking nonsense, which cannot be believed at all.”

"Who said aura doesn't exist..." Xiong Mao was anxious and was about to retort, taking the two of them to his shop to have a closer look. But in the flash of lightning, he suddenly realized that he couldn't do this.

You must know that the core secret of the store is hidden in Baihuiju. Xiong Mao finally asked Fang Yuan and others not to reveal the secret to outsiders, but now he takes the initiative to reveal it. Isn't that asking for trouble?

Thinking of this, Xiong Mao naturally shut up and said nothing further.

Seeing this, Lu Feng laughed even harder: "Professor Shi, you should know that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, countless scientists have used countless methods to prove the absurdity of Feng Shui. It is purely a lie. I will

I don’t understand why in a civilized society, there are still people who believe in it, it’s incredible.”

"Of course, as far as I know, this is not only the reason why some people are ignorant and backward and are deceived by others, but there is also a chain of interests hidden behind Feng Shui."

As he spoke, Lu Feng had a mocking expression on his face: "Some people use the name of Feng Shui and the guise of masters to help people solve their problems and protect them from promotion and wealth, but in fact they are male thieves and female prostitutes, reaping huge benefits.

.This kind of thing is nothing new. Who else are you trying to fool?"
