Chapter 1338 The Number of Inheritance
"Witchcraft?" Fan Jiannan looked at the old man hesitantly, he was a little surprised by the old man's way of thinking.

"What's the matter, is there something wrong?" Zheng Hong saw Fan Jiannan's hesitant expression and asked with a smile.

Fan Jiannan shook his head hastily, "No. I just think that people like Professor Zheng, may, may be interested in witchcraft society..."

"You want to say that people of our generation may have prejudices against witchcraft, and even instinctively reject witchcraft?" Zheng Hong said with a smile.

Fan Jiannan smiled speechlessly, acquiescing to what Zheng Hong said.

Zheng Hong narrowed his eyes, took a sip from his teacup, and then said with a smile, "This kind of view is very common, especially for people like us. If you talked about witchcraft with me 30 years ago, I would definitely say it sternly. Tell you, witchcraft is superstition. But after decades of research, especially at my age, I feel more and more that witchcraft is not completely superstitious."

Fan Jiannan looked at the old man calmly, waiting for him to continue.

Zheng Hong shook his head and said, "In fact, no matter what the school of magic is, it is ancient witchcraft at the beginning. Even the Chinese characters we use were symbols of witchcraft and divination at the earliest. As magicians, we really don't have How many reasons to despise ancient witchcraft."

"But you said that witchcraft contains a lot of superstition and unknowable elements." Fan Jiannan frowned.

"Young man, can you tell me the origin of superstition?" Zheng Hong looked at him and said.

Fan Jiannan thought for a while and said, "I'm really not too clear about this."

"Actually, you know, but you just don't want to say it." Zheng Hong shook his head and said, "Superstition originates from ignorance of things. Because of ignorance, one feels fear, and because of fear, belief and worship arise. The biggest problem with witchcraft is that it is very It is difficult to explain clearly, which may contain some law that we have not fully understood, so we are afraid of witchcraft.

This is like the fear of fire by primitive humans.Animals are afraid of fire, but only humans have mastered how to use fire.Why?This is a cognitive process.So I think there is absolutely no need to taboo against witchcraft, but a deeper understanding and research should be done.It is precisely on this point that Wu Nanming and I agree surprisingly. "Zheng Hong said with a smile, "As we talked, we got a bit off topic.Let's get back to talking about witchcraft. "

Fan Jiannan nodded, "I know that among the ancient civilizations along the Yangtze River, the Wuchu culture is the most representative. What about the Yellow River? I seem to hear very little about the Yellow River."

"The Heluo culture is naturally related to the Yellow River. Heluo culture is one of the sources of Chinese culture. It refers to the regional culture that originated in the Heluo area, the mainstream culture of the Chinese nation, and the source and mainstay of my country's 5000-year Chinese civilization. 5000 years, Shen Yun He Luoshu. The reason why people rarely mention it is because these cultures are all around us. They have even been integrated into our blood. There is no need to deliberately mention them, but they can be seen at a glance Come out." Zheng Hong said with a smile.

"It's like Lao Tzu said that an elephant has no form. We are in the Heluo culture, but it's hard to feel its existence." Feng Yuan thought for a while, "Is that what Professor Zheng means?"

Zheng Hong nodded and said, "That's right, that's my opinion. The most representative Heluo culture is Hetu and Luoshu. These two have become the cultural heritage of the entire Central Plains for thousands of years. But excuse me To be fair, the source of these is witchcraft culture, whether it is Hetu or Luoshu."

Fan Jiannan frowned and said, "I actually saw Luo Shu with my own eyes."

"What?" Zheng Hong's hand trembled slightly, and the tea was spilled out.He shook his head and said, "Sorry, I lost my composure. Are you sure?"

Fan Jiannan nodded, "I'm sure." As he spoke, he repeated the matter of searching for the Luoshu tortoise shell in the orifice of the five mountains.

After Zheng Hong listened, he sighed sadly and said, "Unexpectedly, Luoshu has already appeared in the world. He published pictures and Luo published books. Maybe there is a divine will in the dark. I don't know. These two things once affected the whole of China. The ancient relics of civilization gather together again, I don’t know what kind of scene it will be.”

Fan Jiannan thought for a while and said, "Professor Zheng, I heard from Mr. Wu once. He said that the river map is the shape of a dragon and horse. And the legendary dragon and horse is a large meteorite. But I still have doubts about it. Yes. I would like to ask Professor Zheng, what do you think of this matter?"

Zheng Hong said calmly, "I can be sure that no one in the world has ever seen a dragon and horse carrying a river map. Because this meteorite dragon and horse has long been hidden in the ancient road of the Yellow River. But what Wu Nanming said is true. It’s not groundless either. Many classics have mentioned that someone saw a dragon and a horse in the Yellow River.”

"Moreover, there are very similar things in many people's narratives. For example, the appearance of the Yellow River Dragon Horse, and even some details are consistent. Wu Nanming has even done special research on this for many years. I believe he made such a Judging, there must be his reasons." Zheng Hong nodded.

"But what is that reason? There must be some basis." Fan Jiannan frowned.

Zheng Hong nodded and said, "It's a pity that there are many ancient books about Hetu, but few of them are true and can withstand scrutiny. Among them, the most famous ones are Guo Pu's "Shui Jing" and Li Li's book in the late Northern Wei Dynasty. Dogen's "Shui Jing Zhu". It is difficult to see the old editions of these two books now. But in the old editions, there were mentions about the dragon and horse of the Yellow River."

"So, Mr. Wu has enough evidence?" Fan Jiannan frowned. "Yellow River Dragon Horse, is it really just an iron horse carved from meteorite?"

"Yes, according to the legend, this iron horse is full of decorations, making people feel mysterious. And these decorations are the real river map." Zheng Hong explained. "Some ancient books even indicated the length and height of the dragon horse in the Yellow River. It seems that someone wanted to salvage it in ancient times. Unfortunately, the dragon horse came out of the water only for a short time. After that, there is no trace. The only certainty is that this thing should still be there Among the Yellow River." Zheng Hong said with emotion, "To be honest, as a magician, if I can see the river map with my own eyes in my lifetime, I will lose everything because of the reason."

Several people chatted again, and Fan Jiannan had a deep impression of Zheng Hong's profound knowledge and Guoren's memory.

It wasn't until the afternoon that they got up to say goodbye.Zheng Hong personally sent them out of the door.Before leaving, Fang Min whispered a few words in Zheng Hong's ear.Zheng Hong frowned and said, "There is such a thing? This Lianzhen is becoming more and more outrageous. It's nothing, you can rest assured about this matter, I will deal with him properly."

"Actually, it's not necessary. He was just too angry for a while. We didn't have any conflicts. So when it comes to dealing with it, it's unnecessary." Fan Jiannan smiled and said.

"No! This is an internal matter of our Sanhe Sect. It is our fault for the lack of discipline of our disciples. Don't worry, Master Fan, I must deal with him well." Zheng Hong said seriously. "And I will ask him to promise that he will never find any trouble with Master Fan and you guys again."

Several people bid farewell to Zheng Hong and returned to the "He Bo" boat all the way.At this time, the laboratory on the ship has also completed the preliminary sampling test, and the analyzed data is basically consistent with the data provided by Zheng Hong, and the difference in height is less than or even ten centimeters.It can basically be concluded that the data provided by Zheng Hong to them is completely correct.

In fact, there is no doubt about this at all. The data in Zheng Hong's hands is a summary of the conclusions of many inspections of the Yellow River since the founding of the People's Republic of China.It is based on multiple explorations and experiments, so in terms of accuracy, it even exceeds the results measured in Lao Xia's temporary laboratory.

No matter what, this news made Fan Jiannan feel really excited.

What is even more surprising is that Fang Min managed to get a set of computer virtual equipment, and through 3D modeling, he completely restored the height of Zhenhe Terrace and the height of the portrait on the computer at that time.Based on the analysis of factors such as the angle of the portrait's head turning and the direction of the line of sight, it is completely reproduced.

Then, based on the actual proportions, the possible location of the Yellow River Dragon Horse was inferred.Finally, this location was regionalized. "Great, we have controlled the range within an area of ​​more than two kilometers. Mr. Fan, we succeeded. According to your method, we locked this area." Xia Ping said happily.

"Don't get too excited. Check the map to see where this area is?" Fan Jiannan said cautiously.

Xia Ping checked the location on the map on the computer, and said in surprise, "You can't imagine how close this location is to Zhengzhou, Henan."

"It's in Henan?" Fan Jiannan said in surprise, "Impossible, how come it's so far away."

"But according to the projection analysis of these data, it should be there, near Taohuayu in Zhengzhou." Xia Ping nodded.

Fan Jiannan frowned and said, "But it's unreasonable. That's the end of the middle reaches of the Yellow River. It's almost close to the lower reaches of the Yellow River. How can it be so far away from this statue?"

"I think it's reasonable." Fang Min frowned, "Because it is said that the river map was also discovered in Luoyang. Of course, this is doubtful. After all, Luoyang was the capital of the Central Plains at that time. Could it be near Zhengzhou? It was discovered, but it was pretended to be Luoyang, so that it can be called Luoshu together. This is a very common method in ancient times.”

"Zhengzhou, Henan?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"Yes, Henan has a very special status in Chinese history. It is an area known as the real Central Plains. Zhengzhou is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization, the hinterland of the activities of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and the axis of Chinese civilization. About 5000 years ago, Xuanyuan The Yellow Emperor was born in Xuanyuan Hill and made his capital in Xinzheng. This is the origin of Zhengzhou. It is a place with a long history, and archaeological relics have been unearthed from about 10500 to 8600 years ago." Fang Min explained, " That's an adequate historical context."

Fan Jiannan nodded and said, "What else?"

"The Xia and Shang dynasties successively built their capitals in the Zhengzhou area. The ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty was built 600 years ago. At that time, merchants were the people who most admired divination and witchcraft. Coupled with the legend of Hetu Luoshu, don't you feel that Is there a hidden connection?" Fang Min looked at Fan Jiannan and said, "The earliest shamanistic scripts originated in the Xia Dynasty. In this way, the problem of the source of shamanistic scripts has been solved. Combining these factors, I think it is near Zhengzhou. Not surprising."

Fan Jiannan looked at Lin Zhongxiu and said, "Axiu, what's your opinion?"

"I think there is such a possibility. Zhengzhou was the ancient capital of the Seven Dynasties. It was once a place where kings gathered and dragon veins gathered. If dragons and horses appeared there, it seems logical." Lin Zhongxiu nodded.

"So, you also think that the Yellow River Dragon Horse is in Zhengzhou?" Long Dao Road looked at Lin Zhongxiu and said.

"I can't tell. But according to the data we have obtained, the Yellow River Dragon Horse should indeed be in the Yellow River near Zhengzhou. Since we have already delineated the area, why don't we go and have a look?" Lin Zhongxiu frowned. Said, "Maybe there will be some discovery?"

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "I'm not against this result, I just find it a bit unbelievable. Some things seem a little too strange."

"What?" Feng Yuan looked at him and said.

"For example, this statue of Liu An, I thought it should be closer to the location of Longma, but I didn't expect it to be so different. Axiu, you are an expert in Fengshui. Do you think this is possible?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"There should be. The Fengshui Bureau hidden in the Zhenhe Terrace relies on the great dragon vein of the Yellow River. So it is not in the distance, but in the route of Fengshui." Lin Zhongxiu explained.

"Since this is the case, why did Liu An fail to conspire and commit suicide?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"I have said long ago that Fengshui Dalongmai is just a saying, not something that can be tried and tested. Good Fengshui can give Liu An a good environment for development, but rebellion requires a combination of many factors. Many factors are Outside of Fengshui." Lin Zhongxiu said.

"The so-called good time, place and people, Fengshui can only occupy the right place. So there has never been a rebellion that can be 100% successful, no matter how good your Fengshui is. It will also be restricted by other factors. Fengshui has always been like this."

Fan Jiannan nodded and said, "So that's the case. That is to say, the existence of this statue lies in the fact that it relies on the transportation capacity of the Yellow River waterway. So it doesn't matter how far it is."

"That's right." Lin Zhongxiu nodded, "Moreover, here and the rivers around Taohuayu in Zhengzhou, there is a trend of echoing each other. The Yellow River waterway in Hekou Town here is used to connect with it. In Taohuayu, Zhengzhou, It is the beginning. That’s why the Yellow River from Hekou Town to Taohuayu is called the middle reaches of the Yellow River in modern times. There is a certain reason for this.”

"So, we really need to go to Henan." Fan Jiannan said slowly.
