These four schools of grave robbing have their own specialties, including the three systems of geomantic omen, alchemy and external force in the world. Simply put, it can be divided into three categories: reason, skill and material, and it also completely covers the three motives of grave robbers: saving the world, seeking medical treatment and seeking wealth. Because the protagonist in the series "Ghost Blowing Lights" is a descendant of "Touching the Gold Captain", the door to touching the gold is more prominent and the most eye-catching in the novel.
These four schools use different means of robbing tombs and have different strengths, so they can't be completely compared.
Among the four grave-robbing organizations, the Faqiu faction is the strongest and the oldest, followed by the Yishan faction, the touch of gold faction and the Xieling faction.
The founders of the "Golden Touch School" and the "Faqiu School" are Cao Cao, the "first lean in the Three Kingdoms".
Mojinpai
The members of the Mojin Sect are called "Mojin Captain", and they don't have the name of mentoring. They only rely on things like "giving high marks", "touching the golden spell" and "seeking dragons" to advance and retreat according to the rules. They have laws to attack and defend, and thieves know how to do it. Crows go out without touching gold, thieves stay away from ghosts and gods. The members of Faqiu Sect are called "Faqiu Tianguan" or "Faqiu corps commander".
It's also a grave robbery. Why did Cao Cao create two different sects to serve him?
The reason is that the division of labor between the "touch gold school" and the "send mountain school" is different. "Touch" means exploration and detection, and "arch" means breaking ground and digging.
In other words, the duty of the gold digger is to find, detect and evaluate the tomb, which is equivalent to Depth Charge who is spying on the battlefield. Therefore, a captain who touches gold is quite accomplished in the skill of dividing gold and fixing points.
When the scale of grave robbery is general and the risk factor is not high, Captain Mo Jin, as a "Depth Charge", will perform the duties of grave robbery.
However, in the case that the scale of grave robbery is huge and the key to grave robbery is extremely bad, it will be taken over by the "Faqiu corps commander" with more sophisticated means. In terms of status, Faqiu corps commander is obviously higher than Mo Jin, who is regarded as their leader.
It is said that Cao Cao rewarded each "Faqiu corps commander" with a "Faqiu Yin Tian" engraved with eight Chinese characters, "God bless the people, all are exempt from sin".
It is worth mentioning that the prototype of "Fa Qiu Yin Tian" was destroyed in the Ming Dynasty, and three golden spells were handed down, which were later acquired by Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan and shirley Yang respectively.
After Cao Cao pacified the north, the Golden Touch School and the Hair Care School disappeared. After all, robbing a tomb for money is just an emergency and will be laughed at by the whole world for a long time. Although boss Cao is informal, he keeps saying that he would rather let me bear the burden of the world than me, but it is better to dig less graves. After all, his position is different.
Mojinmen's "tomb-robbing purpose" is that all people come, but any tomb discovered by Mojinmen, from princes and nobles to civil and military courtiers, can't escape from Mojinmen's "clutches".
The experts who touch the gold faction are very cautious, so they are used to "going it alone". After all, grave robbery is a lawless activity, and hordes of grave robbers will inevitably be targeted by the government.
Faqiu school
Faqiu School is the antithesis of Mojin School. Faqiu Sect is only interested in ancient tombs and never goes it alone. Before every "inverted bucket", people should be gathered and disguised as business travelers before acting.
For the masters of Faqiu School, grave robbing is only a sideline. They did business, opened casinos and became wealthy businessmen through the huge profits gained from robbing tombs. Or cooperate with the government and focus on archaeological academic research, which has already left the ranks of grave robbers.
Therefore, although the Faqiu Sect occupies a high position, with the passage of time, they have changed their professions and become the upstream industry of grave robbery. What really focuses on inverted bucket is to touch the golden gate.
Banshan school
Yishan Sect is the most mysterious tomb-robbing Sect. The Mid-Levels School is composed of Taoists who are proficient in Feng Shui, Zhouyi and Maoshan Daoism.
Folklores such as "moving mountains to divide into armor", "Jiulong Dingchuan" and "geomantic omen of the earth god" all came from the founders of the Yishan School.
The purpose of moving mountains to rob tombs is not to steal priceless funerary objects, but to find a way to live forever. Unfortunately, some masters of Yishan Sect are insatiable, which leads Yishan Sect to gradually become a private grave robbery organization with the purpose of stealing funerary objects.
Of course, the novel "Ghost Blowing Lights" gives a better image to Yishan people. They became ascetic monks and Taoists, did not love money, and only fought for one thing, that is, the dust beads, in order to let them lift the curse on their people.
Xie Ling school
The "Xie Ling School" also originated in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. If Mojin School and Faqiu School are "officially certified" grave robbing groups, then Xie Ling School is a grassroots folk grave robbing group.
The activity area of Xie Lingjiao is mainly in the south. The mountains and rivers in the south are beautiful, and the tombs are generally hidden in the mountains. The "rude" Wang of Xie Ling often destroys the geomantic omen of the whole mountain by robbing tombs, hence the name Xie Lingbang.
Xie Lingjiao is not so much a grave robber as a group of extraordinary "outlaw thieves". When there is a tomb to steal, they fight for it. When there is no tomb to steal, they gather on the mountain to rob the people.
However, in the novel Ghost Blows the Lamp, the school has always been very strong. During the Republic of China, it was a vassal, always headed by Chen, and there were hundreds of thousands of brothers under it.
Generally speaking, although the four schools of grave robbery are all from inverted bucket, their respective development is completely different. Faqiu School, the school with the highest birth background, washed its hands and became a trafficker. And the most skilled mountain-moving school is only for treasure hunting. And the huge unloading ridge faction, after all, only relies on brute force. Only touch the golden faction, divide the gold and fix the point, and inherit the melodious.
To sum up, the four schools of sending mountains, touching gold, moving mountains and unloading mountains have their own specialties in the means of robbing tombs, but the protagonist in the novel is touching gold, so the means of touching a captain will be more brilliant. However, the golden trio can save the day in many inverted fights. In fact, it also relies on many techniques to remove mountains. Only by taking advantage of its strengths and making up for its shortcomings can it play a better role. For example, the unfortunate experience of the partridge whistle and the blind Chen Can can be said to be a combination of the strengths of various schools in practice. In this way, they can go in and out of the numerous halls of the Dragon Palace, and go in and out of Worm Valley, Kunlun Temple, Bottle Mountain, Nanhai Ghost Livestock, and Martial Arts Coffin Mountain without any injuries.
