Legendary story behind the tomb of the Big Dipper

From the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Beidou became the rule of tomb location, and this inheritance continued until the late Qing Dynasty. Why are the patterns of the Big Dipper engraved on the coffins and tombs of tombs since the Han Dynasty? First, the tomb owner had the hope of going to heaven. Generally, the gates of graves and cemeteries are often engraved with moire patterns, which means that entering heaven from earth does not mean that you can enjoy the happiness of heaven. Because of the need for heaven, the Big Dipper is a symbol of heaven. The second is the desire for super life, because the "One God" of the Big Dipper is in charge of human happiness, wealth and longevity, so super life must also be recognized by the "One God"; Third, the survival of future generations, wealth, honor and disgrace are also related to tombs. This is the principle that China buried the Big Dipper in ancient times. In ancient China, people believed in the gods, and life and death lived together with heaven and earth, and regarded the Big Dipper as the meaning of the gods: "The ancients who were alive regarded the Big Dipper as a life compass given by God, and were buried with the Big Dipper after their death, which was a paradise with the Big Dipper. The wisdom of the ancients is to use the image of the Big Dipper to decide their life and whether they can go to heaven after death. This is what feng shui astrology calls feng shui astrology. Geomantic astrology has a long history and is unfathomable, and it is difficult for ordinary people to know the mystery. A talented feng shui master discovered a treasure trove of feng shui, which is a rare treasure. If a geomantic treasure is destroyed by man, its regeneration ability will be lost. I heard from Master with my own ears that there was a Feng Shui master in the Ming Dynasty who lived to be over 80 years old and knew that he was dying, but he fell ill in bed. He said to his son, When I die, you bury me in the middle of Longtouling. There is a slate in Longtouling. Lift my coffin to the slate. If you knock on Causeway Bay three times, the slate will open a small hole by itself. Then push my coffin into the hole and knock the gong three times. The slate will naturally close and return to its original state. Bury me there, and future generations will multiply for thousands of years. " Hearing this, the son of Feng Shui master was dubious. Is there such a treasure trove that can be automatically switched on and off? He meditated for two or three days. He secretly took a gong behind his father's back to Longtoushan and struck three gongs on the slate his father said. After a while, the slate really opened automatically and a small hole appeared on it. He gave him a look of panic and curiosity, and the hole could hold a coffin. He finally believed his father's words, and hurriedly rang three gongs, and the slate closed automatically and recovered. Later, his father died. He carried the coffin there and knocked the gong three times, but the slate wouldn't open automatically. He struck the gong three more times, but the slate still wouldn't open. But he buried his father in front of the slate. He realized that there was only one chance to bury the treasure house of Feng Shui, but he didn't believe that his father had broken it. Although his father was not buried in the cave, he was buried in front of the slate, facing the Big Dipper. Later, his descendants gave birth to a general. This story tells us that feng shui astrology, nature and cosmic forces are all magical, which proves that feng shui astrology exists. Nowadays, people don't know enough about the Big Dipper. Why did the ancients bury the Big Dipper with it, and carved the pattern of the Big Dipper on coffins and graves? Scientists can't explain this question and answer, which has always been an unsolved mystery. Grave robbers thought: "The living ancients regarded the Big Dipper as a god, and used it to locate the grave and determine the sitting direction of the grave after death, just as Mr. Feng Shui now uses a compass to determine the position of the grave." Because the grave robbers knew that the ancients didn't have a compass, they all used the Big Dipper to determine the tomb, and the death of the south was the death of the south, which was the criterion for sitting in the tomb. This is one of the sources of the "tomb-robbing culture" gimmick! At the end of the Ming Dynasty, a grave robber researched and invented the "tomb-robbing compass", accurately found the location of the ancient tomb, and successfully stole the funerary objects in the ancient tomb. His "Tomb-robbing Compass" successfully developed and invented the "Tomb-robbing Compass" by skillfully using the Big Dipper and the tomb-robbing formula. The "tomb-robbing compass" is made of golden nanmu and mahogany. The tomb-robbing compass is engraved with lifelike Xuanwu, Qinglong, White Tiger, the Big Dipper Array, the tomb-robbing formula and the four decisions of not burying the tomb. Unlike the compass sold in the market now, the contemporary compass is looking for a new tomb, and the tomb-robbing compass is looking for an ancient tomb. After the founding of New China, the tomb-robbing compass disappeared in China until the country focused on economic construction. Ten years after the reform and opening up, the tomb-robbing compass and an old overseas Chinese flew back to Shanghai from the United States. Since then, the tomb-robbing compass has appeared in China. 1In August, 1999, this old overseas Chinese with a grave-robbing compass died in the United States at the age of 75. He is a descendant of the inventor of the tomb-robbing compass, the head of the Nuggets Sect, and a celebrity in the "touch gold" circle in the 1990s. Before his death, the old man received five immigrant brothers and passed on the position of head to Daohao: Daochang Zhiliang, at the age of 74. Generally, cemetery thieves are near the Mid-Autumn Festival ... On the night of the twelfth day of the eighth lunar month, the Big Dipper is particularly conspicuous and shining. A group of "gold diggers" came to Luo Yun to locate the ancient tomb in Luo Yun by observing the Big Dipper "Taiyi". They drew an area with the Big Dipper, and five people lined up, each of whom was only one meter apart, and put a probe into the ground. If the soil is soft and the depth is 4~5 meters, the underground is the ancient tomb. The Shang and Zhou coffins are shaped like a figure of eight, with an upper width of 80 cm and a lower width of1.2 m. When the probe touches the soft soil layer, it touches the hard soil layer, and the probe can't be inserted. Then use Luoyang shovel to explore the hole to see if the soil layer is flower soil or tomb site. Then shovel it down and hit the hard soil to see what is at the bottom of the coffin. Poor wood ash is at the bottom, and rich cinnabar is at the bottom. Five people probe into the tomb, and then use Luoyang shovel to borrow soil. They see that the bottom of the coffin is covered with cinnabar, which has been identified as a rich tomb. With a big Luoyang shovel, you can dig an ancient tomb 5 meters deep. They can dig the hole to the bottom of the coffin in two hours and insert the probe into the coffin twice. When they touch a hard object, they will know that it is a bronze funerary object. Then, it takes about an hour and a half to dig up the soil to get the funerary objects and steal all the funerary objects. Professional grave robbers rob the tomb like this: use the Big Dipper to determine the approximate location, and use the probe and Luoyang shovel to determine the grave pit. Listen to me, these are simple and professional grave robbing procedures, which are difficult for laymen. The key lies in the difficulty of determining the approximate location. This difficulty is geomantic astrology. A grave robber has such a skill, which comes from the experience of "the astrological culture of grave robbery". It's not difficult to rob a tomb. Just like people, eating will pee. This is a human program, people can do whatever they are programmed to do! There are tombs everywhere. As long as there is a geomantic pattern in Shan Ye, there are ancient tombs. The key is whether you can find them or not!
