The source is Ming and Wu's "The Study of Yunniu Noodles": "There are fertile fields in Qiangang here, and the veins are close to the mountains, and they are qualified everywhere."
Feng shui:
The word "Jing" is annotated in modern Chinese as follows: It was originally a superstitious term of Feng Shui, referring to the origin and destination of mountains. Now refers to a clue to the ins and outs of a thing. Then, what is the "context" of the origin and development of things, which was originally a geomantic term, and later in geomantic omen? What does it have to do with our city residents?
Our ancestors began to worship dragons very early. The legendary dragon is a giant that stretches like a mountain, so people often compare mountains to dragons. For example, there is a mountain in Hunyuan, Shanxi, which is called "Longshan" because of its majestic mountain, majestic atmosphere and green foothills. Throughout the country, there are countless names named after dragons, such as Longmen, Longquan, Longqiu, Longjing, Longxi and Longchi.
Feng Shui borrowed the folk concept of dragon, calling the winding mountain Long Mai, or Mountain Dragon; Rivers with a long history are called hoses. Dragons are divided into dry dragons, supported dragons, real dragons, fake dragons, sick dragons, dead dragons, in and out dragons, straight dragons, horizontal dragons, dragons and hidden dragons.
In ancient geomantic omen, it is auspicious to take Longshan as an auspicious place, take the gathering place of the mountains as a dragon cave, and build a cemetery or house in the dragon cave of the auspicious place. It can be seen that the concept of dragon in geomantic omen evolved from dragon worship.
Although there are many ways and means to choose geomantic omen, they can be summed up as four elements (some books add "image", which are collectively called "five geographical techniques"), and their principles are "the truth of the dragon", "the cave", "the ring of sand" and "the embrace of water".
"Dragon" refers to mountains, and "Dragon Truth" refers to living and flowing mountains. The dragon runs in a winding and rugged way, inferring that there is gas underground, and it will inevitably flow with it in a winding and rugged way. Among them, the main mountain is "Lailong"; The ridge winding down from the top of the mountain is called "Long Mai", also called "pulse removal". The purpose of finding dragons is for acupuncture, and acupuncture must first find dragons.
