Under One Person, the little witch only wants to collect elves

Chapter 297 Zhuge Wuhou Reverses the Qimen Situation
"Qing, do you want to win?" The voice from the jade was still echoing in Zhuge Qing's ears.

Wang Ye, standing on the pillar, had a solemn expression on his face. Suddenly, he seemed to see a shadow overlapping with Zhuge Qing.

"Grandfather, what do you mean by this sentence?"

Zhuge Kongming replied: "From what you said, the source of this turmoil is the Qi Body Origin Flow, one of the 'Eight Wonders'."

"The end of the art..."

"Keqing, you know that our generation also had a saying, called the king of magic - Qimen Dunjia."

All this knowledge was hidden in the ancient books passed down from generation to generation in the Wuhou sect. Zhuge Qing had been familiar with them since childhood, so he naturally knew them.

"The wonders of yin and yang are inexhaustible, and the two solstices return to the 19th palace. If you can understand the principles of yin and yang, the world is in your palm."

According to Zhuge Qing's understanding, the ultimate purpose of learning all the Qimen magic is to master oneself. If one has mastered the essentials of Qimen, one can grasp the laws of development and change of all things in the world, and thereby deduce everything in the palm of one's hand and maneuver in all directions.

Zhuge Qing silently repeated this in his heart, causing the jade to burst into laughter.

"What's wrong, Qing?"

"Does it feel mysterious? To control the changes of the world in one hand, do you think it is possible from a human perspective?"

"If it were the ancestor..." Zhuge Qing murmured.

"If I had that level, I wouldn't have died of illness at Wuzhangyuan with hatred in my heart." Zhuge Liang said, "I am just an ordinary person. Don't over-mythologize me."

"But this..." Zhuge Qing wanted to argue a few more words, as if in his heart, his ancestor should be omnipotent.

"Qing, think about the origin of Qimen Dunjia."

"Hmm..." Zhuge Qing thought for a moment, and only one sentence remained in his mind.

The dragon carries the picture and comes out of Luoshui, and the colorful phoenix holds the book in the blue clouds.

Because of the fate of the wind, it was written down, and the Dunjia Qimen began from that time.

According to legend, the ancient Emperor Xuanyuan fought a great battle with Chiyou at Zhuolu, and the battle lasted for many years without any outcome.

Later, the Nine-Sky Mysterious Lady appeared at Xuanyuan Hill, holding a jade box in her hand, and taught the art of Qimen Dunjia to Emperor Huang.

Huangdi ordered Feng Hou to organize this knowledge into 13 chapters of the Art of War, 12 chapters of the Guxu Method, and 1,080 games of Qimen Dunjia.

"Look at what the little guy opposite is using, it should be the 'Fenghou Qimen', right?" Zhuge Liang said.

"Feng Hou...his Qimen Bureau is very troublesome." Zhuge Qing was suddenly shocked, and seemed to understand more and more clearly the meaning of the ancestor's words.

The ancestors were hinting at the development of Qimen.

It is said that Feng Hou took the winter solstice as the time when Yang was first born, and used the four hexagrams of Kan, Gen, Zhen and Xun in the Eight Trigrams. Each hexagram controlled three Qi, for a total of twelve Qi. Each Qi had three phases, for a total of thirty-six phases, and a total of 540 situations, which were called "Yang Dun".

The summer solstice is taken as the time when yin begins to grow, and the four hexagrams of Li, Kun, Dui and Qian among the Eight Trigrams are used. Each hexagram governs twelve qi and thirty-six hou, and is also allocated 540 games, and is called "Yin Dun".

The total number of Yin and Yang escapes is one thousand and eighty.

At the end of the Shang Dynasty, King Wen of Zhou met Jiang Shang on the north bank of the Wei River. When he was fighting against King Zhou of Shang, Jiang Shang was good at arranging the Qimen, and he further reduced the Fenghou Qimen into 72 "live games", dividing each festival of each year into three elements: heaven, earth, and man, and the 24 solar terms are divided into a total of 72 elements.

During the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Zifang, a Confucian scholar and one of the three great men of the early Han Dynasty, learned the art of Qimen from the famous scholar Huang Shigong, and further reduced Qimen Dunjia into eighteen active games, among which the twelve solar terms after the winter solstice were nine games of Yang Dunjia, and the twelve solar terms after the summer solstice were nine games of Yin Dunjia.

"Do you understand now?" Zhuge Liang continued to ask.

"I understand." Zhuge Qing nodded.

The creativity and development of later generations is to make the complex and confusing Qimen situation more simple and flexible.

Although it is far away from those unfathomable and complicated changes, it is indeed much simpler and more convenient to master one thing.

“So almost everyone in our Wuhou sect can master the strange magic without getting bogged down in it... Even if these techniques are passed on to others, they will not be too demanding on people’s aptitude and talent.” Zhuge Qing suddenly realized.

“Then this Fenghou Qimen is probably very easy to make people addicted to it…” Zhuge Qing looked at the stone pillar platform and suddenly felt a trace of admiration in his heart.

What kind of state of mind should one have to not be attracted by the myriad changes?

"The Xiantian leads the Zhoutian, and the changes in the Zhoutian make me the king." Another voice came from the jade.

"Grandfather, what is this?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "The fragment of Fenghoutu. I didn't understand the meaning at that time, so I decided to make myself the central palace, but I didn't think much about the position of the central palace."

Zhuge Qing nodded thoughtfully, thinking about how his ancestor worked as a farmer in Nanyang, came out of the mountains at the age of 27, and then spent his whole life in military service.

In that unstable and chaotic era, any kind of spiritual cultivation and enlightenment was greatly discounted.

"Ancestor, please don't be too sad. Times have changed..." Zhuge Qing said respectfully.

There was silence in the jade for a moment.

"You incompetent descendant, how can you tell that I'm in trouble? Just one thousand and eighty games, you can figure it all out by working backwards, you fool." Zhuge Liang said.

"Hey hey hey hey? No!?"

"Reverse push!?"

"what?"

Zhuge Qing grasped the true fire, and apart from being shocked, he didn't even feel the slightest bit of fatigue.

"Light up the three treasures and master yourself, so you can use the true fire. You have done a great job in this regard."

"But regarding this strange game, it is still too arrogant to try to change the situation at will."

"Qing, remember this. People cannot dominate everything, but they can definitely dominate themselves. No matter what method you use, you must leave a space for yourself."

"When you achieve this, you will be the king of your own body and mind. Your body will be equal to that of a kingdom. How can any external force affect you in the slightest?"

Zhuge Qing thought for a moment and nodded again, "Got it, thank you for the reminder, old ancestor."

Wang Ye, who was waiting on the stone pillar, looked down at Zhuge Qing who was standing there in a daze, and sat down on the edge of the pillar.

"Do you still want to fight?"

"If you delay any longer, you'll probably collapse from exhaustion."

Zhuge Qing remained unmoved and continued to listen attentively to the teachings of his ancestors.

For him at this moment, fighting for a temporary victory or defeat is completely meaningless.

At Wang Ye's urging, the fans in the enclosure started to riot first.

"Why are you rushing me like that? Can't my brother take a break? What if Qingqing has a breakthrough right before the battle?"

"That's right! Do you know how hard my brother works? He must have gained some enlightenment by now!"

"Hehehe..." Wang Ye scratched his head and smiled bitterly. Although he didn't know what tricks Zhuge Qing was planning, judging from the current situation, it was most likely stable.

He solved a big problem for Zhang Chulan and averted the calamity that was to happen to the old Taoist priest, so he could consider himself accomplished in his mission.

Zhuge Qing looked up at the stone pillar and gathered all the ghost fires surrounding the arena.

"Qing, do you want to win? After you enter this Fenghou Qimen Bureau, I can help you. I can even teach you if you want to learn something."

After hearing the words coming out of the jade, Zhuge Qing smiled and shook his head and said, "Grandfather, I understand now."

"You just said that no matter what method is used, one can achieve 'being equal to the country'. If that's the case, then let the true fire of our Zhuge family burn even more vigorously."
