Qiu Yanhan, courtesy name Yizhi, was born in the Tang Dynasty. He is a descendant of Qiu Jian, an important general in the late Cao Wei Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period. He is regarded as the second generation of Feng Shui founders in Chinese history, and the second generation of the great masters of Yixue and Kanyu. inheritor.
Qiu Yanhan was smart and alert since he was a child, and he had already become famous as a teenager. He likes to read the works of the rural sage Guo Pu, and has a strong interest in Yi studies and Kanyu studies. When he grew up, Qiu Yanhan could no longer stay in his hometown. He eagerly wanted to travel to distant places to study and investigate everything recorded in the book. The family could not withstand Qiu Yanhan's offensive, so they finally agreed to allow him to travel far away, and used the family's money to pay for his travel expenses.
Most people don’t have the opportunity to study abroad because they don’t have money, but Qiu Yanhan’s family is rich and he doesn’t have to worry about money at all. After going out, Qiu Yanhan walked around and saw a lot of the world. Legend has it that when Qiu Yanhan walked to Mount Tai, he accidentally entered a stone house where a god lived. He worshiped the god as his teacher and learned the art of yin and yang. Finally, he reached the point where he knew astronomy and geography. A powerful alchemist. Some people think that the god is Guo Pu.
During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Li Longji, Qiu Yanhan was already an old man with white hair and white eyebrows, and a fairy-like spirit. Over the years, he had been entrusted by others with divination, and all of them were ineffective. Everyone felt good about him. Convinced, his reputation spread wider and wider. The Pei family in the Tang Dynasty was a wealthy family. After hearing about Qiu Yanhan's reputation, the Pei family warmly invited Qiu Yanhan to divine the burial place for their clan members.
Qiu Yanhan was entrusted by the Pei family and worked hard for them. He visited Beiyuan, Nanchuan, Xiyu, and Dongzhen in the city, and collected the burial places of the ancient Han Dynasty and the farmland owned by the Pei family. They walked all over, and finally stopped at Fenghuang Yuan in the east of the city. This is where the ancestral residence and ancestral tombs of the Pei family are located.
Qiu Yanhan excitedly took out the notebook he had recorded during the lecture, and compared it with the mountain shape, geography, airflow, and acupuncture points in front of him. After that, he showed a very surprised expression. He said the word "absolute" three times in a row! Everyone in the Pei family was stunned. What happened? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Qiu Yanhan said to the people of the Pei family: "The Pei family's ancestral tomb is really a rare geomantic treasure land! It has a radius of ten miles. The mountains in the distance are noble, the mountains nearby are supported, the green dragons are soaring, and the white tigers are majestic. If you use the Ziwu knot point, this point is where the two lions play with beads on the left and the golden bull comes out of the cave on the right. It is a treasured place for the king to worship the prime minister. Look again, in front of this point is the vast ocean, the deep pool and the great swamp, which is a symbol of good fortune and longevity. And because the center is a dragon's lair, it's amazing. This is a real dragon's lair, and the emperor will be born soon! Look at the center and back, does it look like a phoenix riding a lion? This means that a queen will be born here in the future. , the concubine, the champion and the prince-in-law! How wonderful it is to be rich and noble!"
The news that the Pei family's ancestral tomb was the dragon's cave spread, and later Xuanzong Li Longji also found out about it, and he was very happy. Angry, what, I can actually give birth to the emperor, then who am I? Fake emperor? He was afraid that Datang would really fall into the hands of the Pei family in the end, so he sent people to arrest Qiu Yanhan and planned to question him. Qiu Yanhan was frightened when he saw that he was wanted across the country, but he did not hide. Instead, he walked struttingly on the street. The strange thing was that the soldiers passing by him couldn't see him, so they couldn't catch him.
Xuanzong guessed that Qiu Yanhan was afraid of being blamed, so he deliberately prevented him from finding him, so he issued an imperial edict to pardon Qiu Yanhan for fabricating rumors and trying to establish another emperor. Only then did Qiu Yanhan finally show up. body.
When Xuanzong saw Qiu Yanhan, he did not blame him. Instead, he asked Qiu Yanhan about the Yin and Yang theory. "The Cape Sutra" and "The Eight-Character Secret of Stealing Heaven" are three volumes of strange books in the world. Xuanzong kept the three rare books in a precious collection and granted Qiu Yanhan the title of Ya Dafu. Qiu Yanhan finally returned to his hometown, doing divination for others from time to time, and living an ordinary life.
Xuanzong's side was not so peaceful. As soon as Qiu Yanhan left, Xuanzong immediately ordered people to dig a spacious road on the dragon's cave in the Pei family's ancestral tomb, and cut it off in the name of building a road. Pei's dragon veins disappeared that day. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, 59 prime ministers, 59 generals, and countless princes, marquises, concubines, queens, consorts, and champions emerged from the Pei family's ancestral tomb within a radius of ten miles. Once the dragon vein was broken, Pei gradually disappeared from the political arena.
