The Dragon Arena is still a kind of shock to the Western barbarians. Such a large arena will be established in less than three months. The shocking power of the Westerners who are self-reported to be the first-class race on the earth will be even greater, so that they can fully realize that this world is no longer the time for Westerners to control their voice.

For those Western barbarians, Zhao Chaogang will be at ease only if they completely defeat them. There is only one overlord on the earth, that is China!

The ancient Roman arena was built in round or oval shapes, and it was divided into different levels of viewing stages. This custom has been passed down to the present. Even the stadiums of the Olympic Games are now, more than 90% of the oval shapes are built.

Today's stadiums are generally comprehensive, with the middle area being a football field. According to the standard FIFA, the football field is 105m in length and 68m in width; most of the current running tracks are standard semicircular tracks and field fields (that is, two curves + two straight sections). Most of these competition fields are rectangular, and compared with squares, the circle is more beautiful and has a larger capacity.

Besides, since the stadium is generally a large-span building, streamlined shape is more conducive to reducing the pressure on the wind on the building and extending the life of the building. From an economic perspective, ellips should save space more than rounds. From the perspective of viewing, squares and circles will obviously make some people farther away from the competition venue (the squares are four corners, and the rounds are the audience on the long side of the center field) unable to see the specific situation of the competition in the middle of the field, and there is no such problem in circles or ellipses. Therefore, from these aspects, most of the stadiums are built into rounds or ellipses.

Of course, the Dragon Arena built by Zhao Chaogang will definitely not be round or oval. This is the Dragon Arena, a place where the descendants of the dragon compete. How can we use the schemes designed by Western barbarians? Even in order to achieve a better viewing effect, we don’t have to use round or oval. Isn’t the Bagua of ancient Chinese Taoism a good plan!

For Chinese arenas, you must use Chinese-style designs, and gossip is the most Chinese-style design. After thousands of years of inheritance, gossip has penetrated into the bones of our Chinese. Only by designing the Dragon Arena in the shape of gossip can you have real Chinese characteristics!

The Bagua represents the Yixue culture and permeates various fields of East Asian culture. The Bagua legend originated from Fuxi, the head of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. Fuxi began to draw Bagua in Guatai Mountain, Tianshui, and one painting opened the sky.

The Bagua represents the Yin-Yang system of things itself, and "One" represents Yang. "--" represents Yin. Three such symbols are used to combine parallelly according to the changes of Yin-Yang in nature to form eight different forms, called Bagua.

Don’t have too many mysterious colors for the Bagua. It is a tool used to deduce the relationship between various things in the world, space, time, and the five elements in Han culture. Each hexagram shape represents a certain thing.

Qian represents heaven, Kun represents earth. Xun (xùn) represents wind, Zhen represents thunder, Kan represents water, Li represents fire, Gen (gen should be the third tone) represents mountain, and Dui represents Ze.

Bagua is like eight infinitely invisible large pockets, which puts everything in the universe in it. The eightgua is matched with each other and becomes sixty-four hexagrams, which are used to symbolize various natural phenomena and human affairs phenomena. Based on the wide range of people and things in today's society.

In traditional Chinese medicine, Bagua refers to the general term for eight parts around the palm of the palm.

There are two symbolic forms of Bagua: one is the Eight Classics of the Three Painted Gua; the other is the Eight Classics of the Six Painted Gua.

The general meaning is eight hexagrams. They are the Bagua in the Zhouyi, which is transliterated as Bagua, Diagram is a graph, and the hexagram is a graph. The Bagua with this meaning is divided into innate and acquired.

Bagua: Ganqián, Kunkūn, Zhenzhèn, Xunxùn, Kankǎn, Li lí, Gengèn, Dui duì. Also known as the classic hexagram, single hexagram, three-line hexagram, and small-formed hexagram. It is a symbol formed by the arrangement of the yang line "—" and the yin line "--", which is a symbol formed by the three lines arranged from bottom to top. Some people also use the Chinese character "Three seeks flatness, Dou is not half a meter" to record the Bagua symbol.

Combining two single hexagrams up and down is one of the sixty-four hexagrams, and weighing them.

The Eight Trigrams are the basis of the Yi learning system. The pre-Qin Yi learning was mainly the "Three Yis" namely Lianshan (Lianshan Yi) in the Xia Dynasty, Guizang in the Shang Dynasty, and Zhouyi in the Zhou Dynasty. Later generations were familiar with the Zhou Yi, which was divided into the Book of Changes and Yi Chuan.

Bagua represents early Chinese philosophical thoughts. In addition to divination and Feng Shui, it affects traditional Chinese medicine, martial arts, music, mathematics, etc.

The innate Bagua diagram usually appears in conjunction with the Tai Chi diagram. Tai Chi and Wu Ji represent the ultimate essence of "Tao" of traditional Chinese beliefs (Confucianism and Taoism).

There are three main statements about the origin of gossip:

1. Fuxi painted the Bagua in Guatai Mountain. Later, Fuxi painted the Guatai Mountain in Tianshui, Gansu and Henan. Guatai Mountain is also known as the Painted Guatai. It is said that Fuxi looked up at the sky and looked down at the earth. The place where the Bagua was first painted was located at the northwest end of Sanyang River and is now in Weinan Town, Maiji District.

Of course, many modern scholars do not believe it, and believe that later generations have entrusted some inventions to ancient celebrities; in addition, the Qingdun site in Hai'an County, eastern Jiangsu in the late Neolithic era, eight six-line digital hexagrams were unearthed in 1979. In an ancient environment with sparse population, many tribes and poor communication tools, it took a long process to spread culture to the distant eastern Jiangsu.

2. Zhang Zhengying's divination number evolved into the Eight Trigrams theory in multiple steps: His article "Explanation of Yi Trigrams in Bronze Inscriptions in the Early Zhou Dynasty" studies a batch of numerical hexagrams unearthed in the 20th century, and believes that there were first a large number of divination numbers (numerical hexagrams), and then simplified into several divination numbers. During the Warring States Period, these small number of specific numerical values ​​were simplified into binary odd and even symbols (denoted by one and six numbers) (there are the Eight Trigrams that were transformed into numbers). From the late Warring States Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties, it evolved into (commonly used later generations) abstract binary yin and yang symbols (there are the Eight Trigrams that were transformed into Yin and Yang). The philosophical view of Yin and Yang originated very late. This theory has a great contradiction and great influence with the records of some ancient books.

3. Liu Linying's astronomical six hexagrams evolved into the Eight Trigrams theory: His "New Interpretation of the Origin of the Yi Learning" explains the Six Trigrams system theory, and believes that the hexagrams originated from the prediction activities of astronomers' Guiju tools. The initial hexagram was the Six Trigrams system, without the Kan hexagram and Li hexagram. Later, the Eight Trigrams system evolved into the Eight Trigrams system. The important evidence is that the Six Trigrams system (such as the Three Yins and Three Yangs) is the main theory of traditional Chinese medicine, which cannot be explained by the Eight Trigrams. Moreover, the Yue Trigrams and other parts in the Six Trigrams system have remnants in the "Guizang" and "The Book of Changes".

His later paper, "A Study on the Divination Method of the Use of Six Symbols of the Digital Hexagrams of Shang and Zhou", denies that the Yi hexagram originated from the divination theory of divination and numbers, and argues that the four-symbol nature of the Dayan divination method was thousands of years before the dominance of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The Yi divination method used the six-symbol divination method, and the complex divination number was only the use of the six-symbol and its changes, etc. The Yin and Yang six-symbols are essentially the six-symbols, that is, the six-symbols gave birth to the eight-symbols was a long history of divination, and the origin of the abstract Yin and Yang view was very ancient and far away.

The type of Bagua refers to the type of Bagua that originally means. This type of Bagua has the type of innate and acquired. The Bagua is Congenital Bagua, there is no Congenital Gossip (innate nonsense, scandal), and the Bagua is AcquiredBagua, there is no Acquiredgossip.

There are different types of Bagua. Since the spread of Shao Yong theory in the Song Dynasty, Zhu Xi, the innate and acquired Bagua have been known to the public. There are few Zhongtian Bagua proposed by contemporary people.

Shao Yong called the innate Bagua Fuxi Bagua. This arrangement was recorded in "Huangji Jingshi". The innate Bagua diagram was circulated shortly after his death. The innate Bagua diagram usually appears in conjunction with the Tai Chi diagram. Tai Chi is the Hunyuan and Chaos where Yin and Yang are united. Therefore, some people call the "Tai Chi-style innate Bagua" the Hunyuan Bagua.

The main basis of the innate Eight Trigrams is in "Zhouyi? Shuogua Zhuan": "The heaven and earth are positioned, mountains and lakes are ventilated, thunder and wind are thin, and water and fire are not emitting each other. The Eight Trigrams are incorrect, and the numbers are in the opposite direction, and the numbers are in the opposite direction, so it is easy to reverse numbers."

Qian is combined with (representative) heaven, Kun is combined with earth, Dui is combined with Ze, Li is combined with fire, Zhen is combined with thunder, Xun is combined with wind, Kan is combined with water, Gen is combined with mountain, according to the principle that Yang turns from the left and Yin is turned from the right, Tian is the supreme and the earth is low, and the sky is in the south. The four hexagrams composed of Yang are on the left, and are arranged counterclockwise from Qian to Dui, Dui to Li, and Li to Zhen;

Kun is located at the bottom, and the four hexagrams of Xun, Kan, Gen and Kun produced in the northern Yin line are arranged clockwise from the right side, from Qian to Xun, Xun to Kan, Kan to Gen, and Gen to Kun, thus resulting in the innate Eight Trigrams diagram.

Please note that the Yin and Yang mentioned here are determined based on the Yin and Yang of the lowest line of the Eight Trigrams. The lower lines of Qian, Dui, Li, and Zhen are all Yang lines (-), Xun, Kan, Gen, and Kun are all Yin lines (-). This is the method of determining the Yin and Yang of the Eight Trigrams (also known as the Auxiliary Star Water Method) and then further determining the Yin and Yang of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.

This produces the second set of numbers of the Bagua, namely the number of the innate Bagua nine palaces (please look at the number of inner layers): Qian Jiu, Dui 4, Li San, Zhen eight, Xun 2, Kan 7, Gen 6, Kun 1. (The inner layer number is the innate Bagua number, and the outer layer number is the number of the Bagua order). This set of numbers is used in Xuankong Taiyi Fengshui.

Among the three types of innate Eight Trigrams, Zhongtian Eight Trigrams, and Acquired Eight Trigrams, Zhao Chaogang chose the innate Eight Trigrams. Only the innate Eight Trigrams are worthy of the dragon arena and can show the majesty of the Chinese dragon!

The innate Bagua is a very important part of Chinese Taoist culture, and Taoist culture is a hegemon in the cultivation world. Therefore, Zhao Chaogang, as a cultivator, would of course choose the innate Bagua as the design pattern of the Dragon Arena. Moreover, if the Dragon Arena is arranged according to the innate Bagua, it will also benefit greatly for the Dragon Arena and those in the Dragon Arena.

The innate Eight Trigrams are innately gathering spirits (for example, Taoist monks, when meditating, more than 70% of them are meditating in the Eight Trigrams). Once the innate Eight Trigrams are arranged, the spiritual energy in the Dragon Arena will become more and more. It can be said that as time goes by, sooner or later, the Dragon Arena will become a holy place for cultivation.
