Looking at the amazing five lines of gossip in the movie from Tang Detective 2.
As early as last October, I saw the preview poster of Chinatown Detective 2, which looks like this.
With five lines of gossip as the coordinate and the Empire State Building in new york as the background through the magnifying glass. Shadow sister, this is to take our five lines of gossip theory out of the country to the rhythm of the United States.
In China, five lines of gossip has always been shrouded in a mysterious veil. Many people have to look at the five elements from birth, school, marriage and so on, as if it were a life code, guiding people to make some decisions.
Moreover, this theory has a complete system. It doesn’t convince you step by step like solving math problems, but the system is complete enough to make you impeccable. I remember that in Ma Zhe’s textbook, it was called "simple materialism".
Italian movie master Ferini once wrote in his Dream Book, "I turned to the Book of Changes for help, wondering what direction I should take in this lifeless, stagnant and indecisive season?" Finally, he got the required divination, and explained it to everyone. The required divination means waiting. That is to say, at that time, Ferini needed to wait quietly. He thought this explanation coincided with his dream, and how it happened exactly. If you are interested, you can read a book, so I won’t go into details here.
In a word, our five lines of gossip is popular all over the world.
Today, Shadow Girl of Shinto will take you to explore five lines of gossip in the movie.
Chinatown detective 2
Shadow sister went to see the film for the first time, but sure enough, the five elements are the key to solving the mystery. The prisoners gathered Jin Mu in various ways.

What’s this for? Haoran Liu’s younger brother solemnly told us: In order to make an alchemist, you have to be immortal.
At that time, a whole movie theater could not help laughing.
However, the idea of practicing immortality is really true. It originates from Taoism, and advocates that through cultivation, people’s material life can be extended, and their spiritual life can be sublimated, and finally they can become immortals and gain enlightenment.
So, how do they practice?
"Lao Zi Xiang Er Zhu" said, "Life is different from Tao." "The meaning of the Tao is dead." That is to say, cherishing life and pursuing health and longevity are the starting point and purpose of Taoism’s bioethics of persuading goodness to become immortal.
After the Eastern Jin Dynasty, monks began to adopt the method of alchemy, thinking that they should achieve the cultivation realm of the trinity of spirit, body and taking Dan medicine.
Later, Zhang Guolao, one of the Eight Immortals, was a doctor in the field of alchemy at that time, and wrote many works on alchemy. Shadow sister took a look at Zhang Guolao’s story, and it was really fascinating. It was about that in front of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, he suddenly turned from senile to green temples and white teeth, and everyone rushed to worship Luo and ask for the secret of rejuvenation, but he refused. Yes, I refused. And after that? He continued to refuse to be an official and marry a princess, but chose to travel around and persuade the world.
Zhang Guolao
In the Song Dynasty, the Taoist book "True Letters" said that "if you don’t cultivate morality, you will achieve nothing." "The History of the Golden Lotus Fairy" said: "If people can correct their body and mind, they will really concentrate on it, and great talents and virtues will gather in it."
Having said that, I just want to tell you that the legendary "gaining the Tao" is not meant to cultivate flying skills or immortality, but to cultivate morality and inner goodwill.
However, it’s not a fool to say that the five elements are so powerful, is it? What help can it bring to our lives?
Shadow sister thinks that it is to conform to the nature of heaven.
Jin Mu’s water, fire and soil depend on each other, and they are interdependent. From the small human body to the big universe, there is an internal five elements, and they all have their own natural laws of operation. For example, the time corresponding to the liver is ugly (1: 00 ~ 3: 00), and "blood belongs to the liver when lying down". It is the best care for the liver to stay asleep when ugly. If you don’t stay up late for a long time in accordance with the laws of nature, the chances of liver disease will increase greatly.
Therefore, from this point of view, it seems reasonable that those seven aunts and eight aunts who help you find someone love to see if the zodiac is compatible with each other. The combination of ash gold and Chengtoutu seems to be the reason why Tang Ren is more obsessed with Chen Ying.
Searching for dragons
"Looking for the dragon to divide the gold to see the mountain, a heavy entanglement is a heavy clearance. If there is an eight-point risk of closing the door, there will be no yin and yang gossip. " Hu Bayi this formula, there will be a big move!

First, in the first pass of the Goddess Tomb, everyone was confused by the underground palace, and at the same time, they were in danger of being chased by Zongzi. At the time of crisis, Hu Bayi calculated the correct exit with gossip, so that everyone could save their lives.
The second time I crossed the phosphorus powder Naihe Bridge, I watched my teammates in front set themselves on fire by the phosphorus powder on the bridge. At this embarrassing moment, Hu Bayi calculated the way to walk alive with gossip. I have to say, in "Searching for Dragons", Eight Diagrams and Hu Bayi are really hot and handsome!
However, if we really use the gossip theory to analyze this "dragon-seeking tactic", can it stand scrutiny? Out of 100, give it a 90.
When looking for an exit for the first time in the film, Hu Bayi read the formula: "The entrance is a horse, the horse is a divination, the mouse meets a horse as a barrier, the sheep meets a horse as a Kun, the dog meets a horse as a dry, and the upper stem leaves the door, and the dog is an exit."

As a matter of fact, "Shengmen" is one of the eight gates in daoist magic. Its orientation is Genfang, which belongs to cattle or tigers, while they take the dry side, which should be "opening the door". (but in fact, only the "birth door" is the only way. )
There is nothing wrong with the other one who crossed the phosphorus powder bridge. Every hexagram in the eight diagrams is composed of three horizontal lines, that is, three hexagrams. Bagua formula: "Dry three times, Kun six times, shake the jar, cover the bowl, be empty from the middle, the ridge is full, be short from the top, and be broken from the bottom." Every three boards form a hexagram, from which the correct order is obtained.

In addition, other details in the film are also worthy of praise. For example, Hu Bayi went out to check the zodiac, escaped to look at the compass, and even painted symbols on the windows of American rooms.
Although the film is a work presented to the audience after the effect of film and television, the Book of Changes does contain huge treasures, ranging from how to find a hole in the dragon to how to put a mirror in front of the bed. You may find the answer you want, and interested friends can study it, and the skills are not overwhelming. (It’s also a weapon for pick up hot chicks to tease Han, only telling the audience of Shadow Sister. )

Don’t listen to that, a thorough materialist.
Daoist magic.
Daoist magic, China’s works on Shu Shu, occupies a very high position in the system of Yi-ology, and is known as the study of emperors.
Daoist magic compass
In the preface, this book tells us that daoist magic was a sharp weapon for the Yellow Emperor to defeat Chiyou. Qimen was originally used in military operations, using time and space to predict good and bad luck, choosing the right operational position and time, and striving for the greatest victory in the war. It is said that Zhuge Liang likes this weapon very much!
Later, it was mostly used for divination and prediction, guiding people to correctly grasp opportunities and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Probably similar to the western astrology that young people like now.
Daoist magic’s compass is a movable disk with many layers that can be rotated separately. It is bigger than Hu Bayi’s and can evolve into thousands of games. This is reflected in the new version of "daoist magic", that is, in the movie, the haunting of the demon people is predicted by the "special door".

And, as mentioned above, looking for the "birth gate" in daoist magic. This will introduce what daoist magic includes. In fact, daoist magic is not a "strange door" and "dodging armor", but a "strange door" and "dodging armor".
"Strange" corresponds to the three wonders of the sun, the moon and the stars, and "door" is the eight doors of "stopping life and injuring Du Jing’s death and opening it". Only by finding the "door of birth" can we escape from birth. Literally speaking, armour is the head of heaven’s work, that is, marshal. Marshal has to hide, that is, hide. Why hide? It is to hide in the dark and strategize.
So in the old version of daoist magic, it seems that it has nothing to do with "daoist magic" itself. Qimen and Dunjia have become an old man and an old woman, and those spells make me feel like watching the 86 version of The Journey to the West. However, as a film, Shadow Sister still prefers the old version of daoist magic, precisely because the sincere Machamp of Hong Kong films at that time was full of imagination. It makes me feel that it doesn’t matter whether he is really daoist magic or not.

However, it is very difficult to interpret the profound "daoist magic" with modern audio-visual language and tell a good story. This just shows that "China’s original fantasy story" is a fertile soil to be developed. At least in the current Chinese film market, there are few works, but the audience is extremely fond of it. The popularity of online dramas "Ghost Blows the Lights, Exquisite Ancient City", "Soul Ferry" and "River God" is a good proof.

I hope I can see more excellent original fantasy stories of China on the big screen in the future.
