Feng Shui?
Qin Xiao was taken aback, wondering if Liu Wenxuan is still a Feng Shui master?
Of course he knows what Feng Shui is about. For folks at funerals, they will choose a suitable date, and even if they break ground, they will also find a Feng Shui master to count it.
If you don’t look at the days and hit the underworld fierce day, everything will be unfavorable, and bloody disaster will be serious.
Before this caravan trip, of course, the lucky day was selected in advance.
There are also many fortune-telling gentlemen in Guicheng. Qin Xiao has also seen some weird tools in their fortune-telling cases, but he has no interest in this way and has never cared about it. It’s just the strange compass in Liu Wenxuan’s hands. Mr. Fortune's booth has never been seen before.
The moonlight shone on the compass, glowing with a faint golden light, and Qin Xiao faintly recognized many of the densely packed handwritings, which were symbols of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
"The leader likes to watch Feng Shui?" Qin Xiao asked softly.
Liu Wenxuan smiled and said, “If you have nothing to do, it is just a pastime.” The compass was quickly wrapped in a black cloth with his hands and feet, and then he looked at Qin Xiao and smiled: “The things inside are too profound. I'm afraid I will only know a little bit in my life."
Qin Xiaodao: "I have seen many fortune-telling gentlemen before, they...!"
"Fortune-telling?" Before Qin Xiao finished speaking, Liu Wenxuan interrupted with a smile: "The street fortune-tellers can't even figure out their own fate. It's nothing more than bluffing people and eating a bowl of rice. The real Feng Shui is not. As simple as they say."
Qin Xiao heard his words full of disdain for fortune-tellers, and wondered if you knew your fate clearly?
Liu Wenxuan actually seemed to see through what Qin Xiao was thinking, and smiled: "Naturally, I don't know my fate. Yin and Yang gossip is unpredictable. It is all-encompassing. If you can penetrate any part of it, you can become a family. The highest realm is naturally from It looks through the future, but not everyone can reach it. Looking at the world, it’s not bad for a person with this ability to produce one in a few hundred years." Raising his hand and stroking his beard: "Most people just learn to be superficial. In observing luck, those who have real talents and learning are rare. Even if they really have this ability, they can only look at luck but not fate."
"Fortune or fate?"
"Visitors can know a person's luck, but they can't understand the destiny." Liu Wenxuan said: "The difference between luck and destiny is a world apart."
"The commander can see the luck?"
Liu Wenxuan shook his head and smiled: "No. I don't walk in the vein of observing acquaintance and luck." Looking up at the night sky, he calmly said: "How can the appearance of people be compared with the appearance of heaven and earth."
"The phase of heaven and earth?" Qin Xiao only felt that the more Liu Wenxuan said, the more mysterious he became, and the more doubtful he became.
"Look at the mountain when you look for a dragon, one entanglement is a rush. If there are thousands of locks at the door, there must be a prince living here." Liu Wenxuan slowly muttered.
Qin Xiao was stunned, but Liu Wenxuan smiled faintly, and said: "It's late, you have to worry about it." Without saying a word, he turned to his tent.
Qin Xiao watched his back disappear, feeling a little dazed.
He felt that Liu Wenxuan had a weird air, and he was even more surprised to know that this guy knew Feng Shui tonight.
"Brother Wang." A voice suddenly came from behind: "Thanks for your hard work. Go and rest. I'll be guarded in the middle of the night."
Qin Xiao turned his head and saw Ning Zhifeng walking towards him, smiling: "Fifth Brother Ning is still asleep?"
Before, he only called Ning Zhifeng as Big Brother Ning. Later, when someone called him Ning Fifth, he also changed his name to Ning Fifth Brother.
Ning Zhifeng
He walked over and said: "The shoulder injury is still not fully recovered, and occasionally it hurts, and I can't sleep when I lie down." Looking in the direction of Liu Wenxuan's departure, frowned and said: "It was Liu Wenxuan?"
Qin Xiao nodded.
"He hasn't slept so late?" Ning Zhifeng was a little strange.
Qin Xiao thought about it for a moment, and then said, "Liu Tongling seems to be very fluent."
"Feng Shui?" Ning Zhifeng was taken aback, then smiled: "Yes, did you see him holding a compass?"
"Big Brother Ning also knows?"
Ning Zhifeng said: "The eldest son has mentioned it before. Ten years ago, Master Hou ordered the formation of the White Tiger Camp. It was Liu Wenxuan who prepared for the formation of this camp. He was able to entrust such an important task to him. However, after preparing for the establishment of the White Tiger Camp, the old Hou Ye sent another person to serve as the commander. Liu Wenxuan only served as the deputy commander, and he did not stay in the barracks. The eldest son told us that the alternative commander was chosen by Liu Wenxuan to the old man. Although the White Tiger Camp was formed by one hand, after the completion of the project, only a false job was suspended."
"He really rarely appears in the barracks."
"He has his own mansion in Fucheng." Ning Zhifeng said: "But he rarely walks with other people. Even the eldest son can't see him twice a year. I heard from the eldest son that he is proficient in Yijing gossip and good at contemplating ......!" Seeing Qin Xiao's face blank, he smiled and said, "In fact, I also listen to their small talk, know a little bit, do you know what the Taoist five skills are?"
Qin Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I only know that Taoists can refine alchemy."
"That is one of the five Taoist medical skills." Ning Zhifeng thought for a while before saying: "The five Taoist skills include mountain, medicine, life, divination, and phase. Alchemy is just one of the Taoist medical skills. Liu Wenxuan is good at The art of contemplation is one of the art of physiognomy, it is the art of physiognomy, it is very profound, and I don't understand it."
"Observation?" Qin Xiao was confused when he heard: "How does he like this?"
"I really don't know." Ning Zhifeng smiled: "Maybe it is too leisurely, so it is used to pass the time."
Qin Xiao thought that it would definitely not be to pass the time.
Early the next morning, everyone quickly packed up and continued to head west.
For more than a day on the way, everyone worked step by step and performed their duties. When they arrived in Fan County, Qin Xiao clearly felt that the population here had dropped rapidly.
In the territory of Yuwen County, I saw villages from time to time along the way, with smoke and fireworks, and there were people working in the fields.
However, the villages in Fan County are obviously much less, and the population is sparse.
"When the Wutuo people entered the customs, Fanjun suffered the most losses." Geng Shao followed Qin Xiao and said: "Where the Wutuo cavalry passed, the chickens and dogs were not left. They were more cruel and fierce than wild animals. Except for murder and predation. They also robbed a lot of people from Xiling and sent them back to Wutuo as slaves. As far as I know, some were even sold as slaves in the Western Regions."
Qin Xiao looked at the rather bleak Fanjun land, thinking that the three gate lords of Xiling, from the outside, the Fan clan was obviously the weakest.
The population is too small and the land is barren, which will inevitably lead to reduced taxes.
Moreover, Fan County is the smallest among the three counties, not to mention that it cannot be compared with Yuwen County at all, and even compared with Zhen County.
"In the Wutuo Rebellion, the Duhu Army was besieged in the Heiyang City of Fan County." Geng Shao slowly said: "The Wutuo people's food and grass are used to capture the food, looting everywhere in Fan County, and even cavalry rushed to it. Within Yuwen County...!" At this point, Geng Shao's voice became cold.
Qin Xiao knew that Geng Shao was born and raised in Yuwen County. Almost two hundred people in Gengzhuang died under the iron hooves of Wutuo people. Naturally, Wutuo cavalry was in Yuwen County at that time.
Caused by looting.
"The lives of Xiling were devastated, and there were ten rooms in Fan County. Countless people fled their homeland and went east to avoid disaster." Geng Shao remembered that tragic past event still fresh: "Although the Wutuo people eventually withdrew, the people who returned to Fan County did not Halfway through, all those with some family assets moved eastward and were afraid to stay in Fan County, so Fan County was as depressed as it is now."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly.
He knew that the Wutuo Rebellion brought serious disasters to the people of Xiling. Although more than ten years have passed, the people of Xiling still have a nightmare fear of the Wutuo people.
Outside Kunlun Pass is the sphere of influence of the Wutuo people.
Although Kunlun Pass is now controlled by Datang, Kunlun Pass is not a dangerous place. Once Wutuo people move eastward, Kunlun Pass can hardly stop the attack of Wutuo people. As long as they break through Kunlun Pass, Wutuo's iron cavalry can enter the pass. Fan Jun is the first to bear the brunt of the horse gallop.
No one can guarantee that the Utuo people will not make a comeback.
Having seen the cruelty of the Wutuo cavalry, the common people certainly did not want to stay in Fan County. Once the Wutuo people attacked, they would only become the souls of the iron hoof.
The speed of the team is actually not slow. Except for camping and rest at night, they are almost on their way during the day. Even if they eat and rest halfway, the time is very short.
Qin Xiao didn't figure out how many women were in that big carriage when it was approaching Kunlun Pass.
Looking at the area of the carriage, it is not surprising that there are five or six people in it.
The women inside never showed up from beginning to end, and they must have eaten in the car. Sometimes Qin Xiao couldn't help thinking, wouldn't it be convenient for them on the way?There will never be a toilet in the compartment, but even so, you can't keep flushing the toilet.
He didn't ask too much, thinking that they might only come out for convenience when he was resting at night.
At dusk that day, I finally arrived at Kunlun Pass.
Kunlun Pass is a stone-built gate building, not too high to guard the vitals, but three hundred defenders, this is not because there are no soldiers to adjust, but Kunlun Pass can only accommodate so many soldiers, compared to the majestic Jiayu Pass Grand, Kunlun Pass is very shabby.
Although there are not many defenders, the entrances and exits are very strict. In addition to the roads that the Duhu Mansion needs, and three strict inspections, the three hundred defenders are directly under the Duhu Mansion. Authentic Datang Defender.
When arriving at the pass, it was already dusk. Qin Xiao originally thought that the caravan would rest at Kunlun Pass for one night, but soon learned that no caravan could stop at Kunlun Pass. After the inspection, they must leave immediately.
Qin Xiao knew that this was the security consideration of the guards for the Kunlun Pass. Dozens of cars had to be inspected, and it would not be completed in a short while. Yuwen Chengchao found the guards and said something privately. , The speed of the guards' inspection was greatly accelerated. Before dark, the caravan had already left the Kunlun Pass, and the frontier was the boundless Gobi land.
The caravan couldn't get close to Kunlun Pass to camp, so after walking for more than 20 miles before, the sky was completely dark, and Yuwen Chengchao ordered the camp to rest.

ps: Finally, let me talk about it. Desert novels are overhead historical texts. Regardless of geographical characters are purely overhead, perhaps some places draw on real history as the background, but when reading this book, do not associate geographical figures or even events with real history.This is a completely overhead world!
