Following Liu Jianjun into the courtyard, Zhang Ran was once again shocked by the layout inside. Of course, this does not mean that Zhang Ran is a country bumpkin who makes a fuss, but as a Taoist practitioner, this courtyard is simply an excellent research building.
Zhang Ran has been growing up in a small county like Hongyu County. Naturally, he rarely sees ancient architectural layouts such as courtyard houses, so he is very interested in Liu Jianjun's courtyard houses.
The so-called Siheyuan refers to a layout surrounded by east, south, west and north. The houses on the four sides are surrounded together to form a "mouth" shape.
Through a short observation, Zhang Ran discovered that Liu Jiandong¡¯s courtyard house belongs to a very formal courtyard layout, that is, the alleys from east to west face north and south, forming a pattern of separation on four sides.
??In layman¡¯s terms, the north room, which is the main room, the south (reversed room) and the east and west wing rooms form an enclosed pattern, and then the surroundings are surrounded by tall walls to form a quadrangle with a gate. The gate was opened at the "Xun" position in the southeast corner of the house, which corresponds to the sentence in the "Book of Changes": "Xunda is the wind gate and also the local household Ten thousand stars pass through the sun, two yang and one yin, invisible escape. The wind is vented by The origin of the earth is why it is called Dihu. The household refers to the vitality of heaven and earth."
It means that the Xun position in the Bagua is a place for ventilation. It is like the window of a house, which can connect the vitality of heaven and earth. Furthermore, the terrain of the courtyard is generally high in the northwest and low in the southeast, which is also conducive to drainage.
As the three of them walked inside, Zhang Ran looked around. In the eyes of Liu Jianjun and Liu Jianjun, such behavior was like a country bumpkin who had entered the city and had never seen the world.
Liu Jianjun knew that Zhang Ran was from Huacheng and was not particular about trivial matters, so he didn't care. However, the young man following Liu Jianjun couldn't help but frown.
"Hey!" As he was walking, Zhang Ran suddenly looked at a place not far away and stopped, letting out an exclamation of surprise.
"What's wrong?" Liu Jianjun was startled by Zhang Ran's exclamation. He subconsciously looked at Zhang Ran's gaze, but found nothing unusual, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Where is the toilet?" Zhang Ran looked at Liu Jianjun and asked with a frown.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Liu Jianjun nodded and asked in confusion.
"No wonder." After hearing Liu Jiandong's answer, Zhang Ran frowned and muttered in a low voice.
Although his voice was soft, Liu Jianjun heard it clearly and asked again: "Xiao Zhang, what did you say?"
"Brother Liu, has anyone in the family been seriously ill recently?" Zhang Ran did not answer Liu Jiandong's question, but asked instead. When he was on the train, he could see a trace of evil in Liu Jiandong's eyebrows. It should be that someone in the family is sick. Serious, but it was difficult to ask at the time, but now that I saw something strange, I subconsciously asked.
Having just entered the gate of the courtyard, Zhang Ran was confused when he discovered the layout inside. Normally, such a house layout combined with Liu Jiandong's appearance should not cause problems.
Liu Jianjun's face is one of those in which the heavens are vast, and there must be someone in the family who is powerful. Moreover, Liu Jianjun's face also shows that his relatives must live a long life, but the black aura between his eyebrows shows that someone in the family is seriously ill, and the time has passed. Not much, the two are contradictory. It wasn't until he saw the toilet not far away that Zhang Ran found the reason.
"How do you know?" Liu Jianjun was a little surprised at this time. He looked at Zhang Ran in surprise and said, "My dad is seriously ill, so I rushed back from Huacheng."
"That's right." Zhang Ran nodded, showing a look of deep approval.
But now Liu Jianjun became anxious. He looked at Zhang Ran and asked anxiously: "That's right. What do you mean by this?" Liu Jianjun's eyes showed a sharp look as he spoke.
Zhang Ran ignored the stern look in Liu Jiandong's eyes, but looked at Liu Jiandong and said again: "If I didn't guess, your father was seriously ill three months ago and was sent to the hospital not long ago, right?"
"That's right." Liu Jianjun nodded, the surprise in his eyes became heavier, but he didn't ask any more questions, but stared at Zhang Ran closely.
"It's easier to be evil when you are surrounded by filthy air." Zhang Ran looked at Liu Jianjun, made some calculations in his mind, and then sighed and said: "There is still half a year to live."
"this¡¡"
Hearing Zhang Ran's last words, Liu Jianjun was shocked. Seeing Zhang Ran's expression suddenly changed, he asked in a deep voice: "Xiao Zhang, how did you know."
No wonder Liu Jianjun was shocked. His father only had half a year left, and only a few people in their family knew the news. But Zhang Ran actually said it now, how could he not be surprised.
Looking at Liu Jianjun¡¯s changing expression, Zhang Ran didn¡¯t have time to answer. The young man following Liu Jianjun also had complicated eyes at this moment. He looked at Zhang Ran and asked tentatively: ¡°Are you a Feng Shui sorcerer?¡±
"That's right." Zhang ??? nodded and said softly.
"Feng Shui Warlock!" Liu Jianjun was stunned and looked at the young man beside him.
The young man smiled faintly and did not answer. Instead, he whispered: "This is not the place to talk. Go in and talk."
After hearing the young man's words, Liu Jiandong realized that the three of them were still in the yard at this time, and hurriedly led Zhang Ran and the two into the main hall. After the three of them sat down one by one, Liu Jianjun ordered someone to bring tea, and then asked Zhang Ran He introduced: "This is my good friend, Beichen, a disciple of Beizhen Martial Arts School in Kyoto."
When the three of them came in just now, although Liu Jianjun had a good attitude towards Zhang Ran, it was because of his character. In fact, he didn't think highly of Zhang Ran in his heart, so he had no intention of introducing the young man's identity to Zhang Ran. The young man just said It was only when it turned out that Zhang Ran was a Feng Shui magician that Liu Jianjun took it seriously and hurriedly introduced the young man's identity.
Hearing Liu Jianjun¡¯s introduction, Zhang Ran smiled and nodded to Beichen, saying hello, but he had never heard of Beizhen Martial Arts School.
Although he has never heard of it, Zhang Ran is also aware of the situation in the capital. In fact, martial arts have been rampant in China for a period of time after the liberation of the country. Especially in Taiwan and Hong Kong Island, there are many martial arts schools. Hong Kong Island emerged twenty years ago. The talented martial arts master Bruce Lee emerged and became the idol of many martial arts practitioners. The Jeet Kune Do he created has now become a relatively popular martial art. Although there are relatively few martial arts schools in the mainland, it is not impossible. Those who can afford to open a martial arts gym in Kyoto must not be easy.
After the two sides greeted each other, Zhang Ran smiled and asked: "Brother Bei has also heard of Feng Shui Warlock?"
"Not only have I heard that Master Jiang Fengyun, one of the two great Xuanmen masters in China, is from Kyoto, and the Xuanyi Sect is also in Kyoto. Unfortunately, Master Jiang passed away last year. He had a good relationship with my father." Beichen smiled bitterly.
"Jiang Fengyun!" Zhang Ran was stunned for a moment, with a trace of surprise on his face, and then he suddenly realized.
When Hu Shanyun died, Zhang Ran didn't know Jiang Lingxue's name, nor did he know that his grandfather was Jiang Fengyun. Later, when he buried Jiang Fengyun, although he knew it, he didn't know Jiang Fengyun's identity. At this time, Beichen heard that He finally understood why he couldn't figure out Jiang Lingxue's numerology.
Since Jiang Fengyun is the master of Xuanmen, it is understandable that Jiang Lingxue, as his granddaughter, has achieved a lot in Xuanmen.
"Why, haven't you heard of Brother Zhang?" Beichen asked in surprise when he saw Zhang Ran's expression.
"No, I was born in Hongyu County, Huacheng. My teacher passed away very early and I don't know much about Xuanmen." Zhang Ran explained.
"That's it." Beichen nodded and briefly explained to Zhang Ran. He also introduced the relationship between their Beizhen Martial Arts School and Jiang Fengyun.
Beichen's father's name is Bei Zhen, and he is the current owner of Beizhen Martial Arts School. Beichen's ancestors used to be escorts and practiced the famous Xingyiquan. With the liberation of the country, escorts are no longer feasible, but the family However, the boxing skills he passed down were not lost. After the reform and opening up, Beizhen was fortunate enough to open a martial arts gym in Kyoto and teach apprentices.
Xingyiquan is a relatively advanced form of internal martial arts. Apart from fighting, the most important thing is physical fitness. Therefore, Beizhen Martial Arts School is quite famous in Kyoto.
Opening a martial arts school, he is considered a member of the martial arts community, so Beichen knows a lot about some martial arts sects. In recent years, the two most famous in the mainland are Guo Linhui, the leader of the Confucian sect, and Jiang Fengyun, the leader of the Xuanyi sect. Because they are all members of Xuanmen, they are called the North and South Masters by people in the world.
Because the Xuanyi Sect itself is in Kyoto, Bei Zhen and Jiang Fengyun have some friendship. Beichen even knows the magic of some people in the Xuanmen. Therefore, based on the expressions and conversations between Zhang Ran and Liu Jianjun, he roughly guessed that Zhang Ran Ran¡¯s identity.
After listening to Beichen's explanation, Zhang Ran understood that since Beichen and Liu Jianjun both knew about the Xuanmen people, he was spared a lot of explanations.
"It's a pity that Master Jiang suddenly traveled to the immortal world. Otherwise, Jiandong's father might have a chance of survival this time. In addition to being proficient in Feng Shui, the Xuanyi Sect is also very accomplished in medical skills. Master Jiang is even more famous as the Xinglin Sage." Beichen sighed.
Listening to Beichen's words, Liu Jianjun's eyes flashed with sadness. He looked at Zhang Ran and asked tentatively: "Brother Zhang, what did you see just now? Is there any hope for my dad?"

Maybe you think the previous one is a bit dull and boring, but with the foreshadowing from the previous one, the next one will be more interesting. It's wonderful. A tall building rises from the ground. The more solid the foundation, the more familiar you become with the building. I hope everyone will be patient and wonderful is about to come.
