"Boss Ye, get up quickly, the bucket handle will soon point to the west."
In my daze, I heard Sha Le and Shen Yuan calling me. I turned over impatiently and yawned vaguely, "Don't make any noise, little sir. I'll sleep for a while."
My shoulders were pushed hard, and I opened my hazy sleepy eyes unhappily. I saw Shen Yuan's wretched old face right in front of me, which made me even more unhappy.
Before I could open my mouth to vent my inner dissatisfaction, Shen Yuan pointed to the top of his head and said: "Boss Ye, the handle of the bucket will soon point to the White Tiger Qisu due west."
I rubbed my eyes to wake myself up a little and looked above my head.
The moment I looked up, the handle of the Big Dipper was pointing completely due west, forming a right angle with the White Tiger Seven Constellations in the west.
A shimmering star extended a faint light. As the light extended, the star gradually dimmed, and finally disappeared from my sight. However, the light did not disappear, and moved towards the stars next to it.
Until it was completely integrated, and the star that merged was a little brighter than before.
The second, the third, the fourth...the outermost stars in the west all extended countless rays of light, moving in the same direction. I looked up and saw that the top of my head was like countless fluorescent lights arranged in a row.
It's like the power is turned off.
All the outer stars are invisible, and the stars in the middle also extend countless rays of light, spreading towards the location close to the Big Dipper.
Finally, all the stars in the White Tiger Seven Constellations disappeared, and the extended light became stronger and stronger, all integrated into the fluctuating stars of the Big Dipper.
My eyes felt a little stinging, not because I stared at it for too long, but because the current Fluctuating Star had gathered countless rays of light and became very bright, like a dazzling incandescent lamp. After a while, the Fluctuating Star also extended.
It emits a bright light and moves towards Kaiyang Star. It circulates in this way, passing through Yuheng Star and Tianquan Star, and finally reaches Tianji Star. On the other side, Tianshu Star and Tianxuan Star also extend their light and merge into
In Tianji Star.
Countless stars disappeared, leaving only a single star, Tianji, which was so bright that I couldn't look directly at it.
A beam of light shone down from the Tianji star, like a spotlight on a stage. All the light shone on the huge and weird stalagmite. Our attention was suddenly drawn from the stars above to the stalagmite. The beam of light shone from the stalagmite.
The light shines in from the top and shines through the tiny and mottled cracks in the stalagmites.
Come.
"Wangxiangtai... Sansheng Stone..."
Shen Yuan stared at the stalagmites and murmured: "It turns out that this passage is not only the Ximen in Qimen Dunjia, but also the Wangxiang in Seven Reincarnations."
"Wangxiang!"
I pointed to the huge stalagmite in front of me and asked: "Is this stalagmite a three-life stone? A three-life stone that can see past lives, present lives and the future?"
Wu Zijin said: "That's not right, Brother Yezi, I remember that the Sansheng Stone seems to represent marriage. Destiny determines three lives. When I was traveling in Hangzhou, I saw the Sansheng Stone in a temple, and there were many couples taking pictures together there.
"
I said: "The term "three lives" is a later term. It is difficult to explain. It is a mess and I don't remember much. Anyway, the word "three lives" comes from the Buddhist concept of causality and reincarnation. The later one...oh...
Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, there is a Sansheng Stone in his hometown of Jiuxian Mountain in Qufu, and there is a legend. There is an immortal in this legend. I can’t remember his name, but the problem is that this immortal is from Taoism.
Representative, so Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism all have their own definitions of the three lives, such as clarifying the law and rectifying the mind, driving away evil, and placing hope. Later, people's desires and expectations for love and marriage, etc., the three lives
Life has become a symbol of lifelong love."
Shale asked: "There are so many opinions about Sansheng Stone, which one is correct?"
I rolled my eyes at Shale and said, "There is a right or wrong answer to wool yarn, and it's not a multiple-choice question! Whichever one you believe in is correct. If you don't believe it, then everything is wrong."
Shale nodded, "I understand."
"Right!"
I asked Shen Yuan: "How did you know that this is the Three Life Stone?"
Shen Yuan's fingers traced the light cracks on the stalagmite and said, "Boss Ye, look carefully, these cracks are actually runes."
I took two steps back, and sure enough! The combination of the seemingly messy cracks on the stalagmites did look like some kind of patterns and words, but these words were neither small seal script nor Chinese characters, so I couldn't understand what they meant.
"What do these runes mean?" I asked.
Shen Yuan said: "Get to the other side early! These four words can only appear on the Sansheng Stone."
"Damn it, I don't know where the other shore is. It's a crappy shore."
I said: "Old Shen, now that...that mystery you mentioned has appeared. Has the time come? Have you seen it?"
What? How to get past this damn place?"
Shen Yuan said: "The mystery has emerged, the time must have come, but..."
I had a very bad feeling and asked, "Just what?"
"It's just that I haven't understood the mystery yet."
Shen Yuan frowned, pinched the mustache at the corner of his mouth and said: "I am certain that this is the Big Dipper Formation. To break the formation, you must first find the formation eye. I haven't discovered where the formation eye is yet."
Sure enough, Shen Yuan did not disappoint me. I laughed twice and said: "Old Shen, to be honest, you, the head of Ximen, are not good at business at all. You can't handle all these messy things."
He does know a little bit, but his uncle is only half a bucket of water, and when the critical moment comes, he will fail nine times out of ten."
Shen Yuan was very embarrassed and said: "Boss Ye, don't be in a hurry. Think about it. The completion of a formation requires a huge amount of human, financial and material resources. It also requires the right time, place and people. How can it be so easy to crack it?"
things."
"Then what should we do now!"
I agree with Shen Yuan's reasoning, but I can't continue like this: "How long will it take you to find that formation? One day! One year! Or ten years!"
"Brother Ye Zi, Grandpa Shen, the light has dimmed." Wu Zijin suddenly said.
Shen Yuangang wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Wu Zijin. Sure enough, the light from Tianji Star was not as dazzling as before, and the Sansheng Stone also began to slowly dim.
"What's going on?"
I asked Shen Yuan: "Could it be that the handle of the Big Dipper's spoon has moved?"
When I looked up, I couldn't see anything clearly above my head except the Tianji star.
Shen Yuan said: "It is very possible that when the handle of the Big Dipper points to the due west, the sky will gather the light of the stars. Now it is very likely that the handle of the Big Dipper has deviated from the due west position."
Not long after, the Tianji Star withdrew its shining light, and the cracks in the Sansheng Stone no longer transmitted light. The light extended from the Tianji Star and spread towards the White Tiger Qisu in the west. In just a few minutes, the stars above the head gathered together, completely restored to the original state.
, and I also clearly saw that the handle of the bucket was indeed deviated from the due west position.
"Uncle's..."
I wailed in frustration, the mystery appeared, the time came, everything was ready, the only thing I needed was Old Shen not to let go of the chain, but Old Shen let the opportunity go in vain, and he didn't figure out the reason yet, so there was no need to think about it, he could only wait until
The next time the bucket handle pointed west, I sat down on the ground and said, "His work was in vain again."
