1369 Bay Shock
Tang Ting's flight landed at Hong Kong Island Chek Lap Kok International Airport, and Tang Ding walked off the plane with Xing Muliu, Zong Xiaoyan, and Sophie.
The one who came to pick up the airport was Wu Wenyuan, the granddaughter of Wu Benyuan.
Wu Wenyuan and Tang Ding are also acquaintances, although Tang Ding is nominally her uncle, but Wu Wenyuan has always been with Tang Ding as equals, so they are not a few years old in age, and even Wu Wenyuan also took Tang Ding, the uncle, out of the bar, usually Wu Wenyuan talked to Tang Ding very casually, and did not treat him as an elder.
But this time Tang Ding came out with his fiancée, Wu Wenyuan was well-behaved, and did not talk nonsense, as if she had something on her mind.
"What is Uncle Shi looking for me?" asked Tang Ding.
"Xuanwu is here, hey, let my grandfather tell you. ”
When Tang Ding heard what Wu Wenyuan said about Xuanwu's current life, although he had questions, he did not continue to ask.
Xuanwu, together with the green dragon, the white tiger, and the vermilion bird, is called the four divine beasts, also called the four spirits, and the four elephants. It is the four most terrifying and powerful four sacred beasts in ancient Chinese mythology, and the ancient Chinese believed that the four elephants have the functions of dispelling evil, avoiding disasters and praying for blessings, also known as the four spirits of heaven.
According to Tang Ding's research on ancient Chinese history, the four gods of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu actually originated from the ancient worship of the star gods, and its original origin, if examined by cultural relics, the names of the four heavenly spirits of the Blue Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu have appeared on the oracle bone inscriptions on the celestial phenomena unearthed in Yin Ruins, but there are not complete twenty-eight nights. In the Xishuipo tomb group 6,500 years ago, there has been a picture of a green dragon and a white tiger.
If you want to talk about the appearance of the complete four spirits, the lacquer box of the tomb of Marquis Yi in the Warring States period unearthed in Suixian County recorded the complete names of the twenty-eight houses and the four elephants, and the names of the four elephants such as the Vermilion Bird are also impressively listed.
But when it comes to Xuanwu, it's not just one of the four spirits. Xuanwu legend is a kind of turtle and snake combined animal, Xuanwu is also known as Xuanming, turtle and snake combined, for the god of water, living in the North Sea, turtle longevity, Xuanming has become a symbol of immortality, the underworld is also in the north, so it is the god of the north. And Xuanwu can also pass through the underworld to ask divination, so Xuanwu is different from the other three spirits, known as the "Zhenwu Emperor", is the god of Taoism.
What does this mean?
If ordinary people heard the news, it was very likely that they would regard this incident as an omen, but for Tang Ding, who had seen the green dragon and the white tiger with his own eyes, he thought more deeply, in addition to this omen, is Xuanwu really showing his true body?
But this matter will have to wait for Tang Ding to see it with his own eyes.
"Come, come, Tang Ding, it's been hard all the way, come and sit down and have a cup of tea. As soon as Tang Ding arrived at Wu Benyuan's villa, Uncle Shi warmly beckoned Tang Ding to come over and rest for a while.
"Uncle Shi, young man, his physical strength and body are good, so why rest. Tang Ding gave Uncle Shi a hug, and then introduced Uncle Shi to the three daughters of Xing Muliu, Zong Xiaoyan, and Sophie.
Wu Benyuan nodded again and again, then took out three copper coins from his arms and gave one to each of the three girls.
The three girls all looked at Tang Ding, hesitating whether to accept it?
"Take it, this is Uncle Shi's heart. Tang Ding turned to his uncle Wu Benyuan and hugged his fists to him, "Uncle Shi, this time you broke the bank, Yonglong Tongbao is a rare commodity with Fujian copper coins, the whole of China doesn't know how many there are, you have three at once, dare to love half of the country's Yonglong Tongbao in your hands?"
"Haha, I know that you are not a foolish person, you know the goods, this Yonglong Tongbao back Fujian copper coin is my next chance to get it, although it is rare, but for me it is not necessarily very precious, just this time to borrow flowers to offer Buddha to send out. ”
"What kind of copper coin is so precious?" Although Sophie likes Chinese culture, and has a deep understanding of Chinese culture during this time, most of them do not know much about Chinese antique culture, not to mention that Sophie is a foreigner, even if it is a professor at a Chinese university.
However, if these professors don't understand, it doesn't mean that Tang Ding doesn't understand.
Although Tang Ding is not as knowledgeable as the university professors of these majors, he is definitely better than these professors in one aspect, that is, the study of ancient Chinese history.
"Sophie, you don't take this Yonglong Tongbao back Fujian copper coin, at the beginning of the fifth dynasty, Wang Xianzhi, known as "White Horse Saburo", succeeded his brother Wang Chao to occupy Fujian, and was crowned the king of Fujian by Liang. This Yonglong Tongbao is cast by him, because the period of his reign is very short, so there is a Yonglong Tongbao with the Fujian character behind it, which is particularly archaeological value. Even if you talk about the value alone, this thing alone is more than a million. ”
"So valuable?" Although Sophie is a blood clan and comes from a wealthy family, she doesn't have much concept of money, and of course, as a blood clan, she is not short of money. But this rusty little copper coin, so valuable, was something Sophie didn't expect.
"Uncle Shi is really a miracle, he actually prepared all the gifts for me!" Tang Ding complimented Uncle Shi.
"Haha, what is God, how can God calculate this? This is what I called you, I was going to call my brother to come, but my brother couldn't be contacted, so I had to call you. ”
"I'm talking about these three Wing Lung Tongbao, why do you just prepare three?"
"I don't need to count this, you can tell me why you don't count it?" Wu Benyuan said to Tang Ding.
"Well, that's only because Uncle Shi knew in advance that I had three fiancées, so I didn't have to count it, as for how I knew, Master went to me once some time ago. ”
Wu Benyuan listened to Tang Ding's words and laughed, "I said a long time ago that you kid was born to be a dry physiognomy master. ”
"But you said you weren't counting. ”
"Physiognomy is also inseparable from reasoning, reasoning is one of the basic skills of physiognomy, of course, physiognomy is also essential, you can't rely on flickering, right?" Wu Benyuan looked at Tang Ding and laughed.
Everyone is in the industry, so the words were open, and everyone laughed with Wu Benyuan and Tang Ding.
"Okay, it's time to talk about the reason why you came to Hong Kong Island this time. After laughing, Wu Benyuan said the real purpose of letting Tang Ding run this time.
About three months ago, Taiping Bay suddenly began to bulge, causing the giant freighter to be unable to sail, and later geographers began to investigate, saying that it was caused by a sudden geological change, and experts are discussing a solution.
As soon as this matter was revealed, it immediately attracted the attention of Feng Shui scholars. Hong Kong Island is a place where there are many schools of feng shui, and there are many feng shui masters from all walks of life, and everyone unanimously discusses that the feng shui on Hong Kong Island should be reversed.
Hong Kong Island from a small fishing village, to today's international metropolis, can be described as a treasure of Feng Shui, Hong Kong Island has nine dragon veins, and these nine dragon veins can be traced back to the Kunlun Mountains, known as the ancestor of the dragon veins, Kunlun Mountains is China's three major dry dragon sources, this giant dragon winds from west to east, stretching for thousands of miles, on the way to branch out of countless branches. One of them enters Luofu Mountain through Baiyun Mountain in Guangdong Province, where it extends to Lian Ma Hang and rushes up to Sparrow Ridge, from which the Hong Kong Island mountain range originates.
Victoria Peak is the symbol of Hong Kong Island, and Taiping Bay at the foot of Victoria Peak is known as an excellent feng shui treasure place to look at the mountains and waters, and the feng shui here is the symbol of Hong Kong Island's feng shui.
Now that a piece of high ground has been raised in Taiping Bay, isn't that just a knife inserted in the excellent feng shui treasure of Hong Kong Island?
Therefore, Feng Shui masters paid attention to it, the people paid attention to it, and the government also took decisive measures to start cleaning up this uplift on Taiping Bay.
But this uplift seems to be inexhaustible, just cleaned up, two days later will be uplifted, this made the cleaners begin to panic, and the panicked managers invited geologists, geologists can not understand the reason for this situation, can only re-seek help from feng shui masters, to resolve the bulge of Taiping Bay.
However, the feng shui masters who re-resolved Taiping Bay were powerless, but in the process of continuous cleaning and cleaning, a clear outline in the leylines was gradually revealed.
Wu Benyuan took out a photo from the envelope and handed it to Tang Ding, "This is what the bottom of the sea looks like after a holographic camera." ”
Tang Ding fixed his eyes and saw that this was a huge turtle shape, and the whole Taiping Bay was like a huge turtle, lying on the bottom of the sea, of course, it was said to be the bottom of the sea, but in fact, the water here was not deep, and the sea water was clear, so the image was relatively clear. The turtle's head is much longer than that of a normal turtle, reaching deep into the seabed.
This is Xuanwu?
Tang Ding's heart also chuckled.
