The origins of Qimen Dun Jia were widely discussed. It was generally believed that it originated from ancient divination and could be traced back to the period when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou. Its initial form might have been used for military purposes such as arranging troops. In the course of history, Qimen Dunjia had undergone many changes. When it was first created, it had a total of 4,096 games. Later, it was improved to 1,080 games. In the Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Shang compressed it to 72 games due to the need of marching and setting up formations. In the Han Dynasty, after Zhang Liang received Huang Shigong's teachings, he reformed it again, becoming the current Nine Yin Escape Techniques and Nine Yang Escape Techniques, a total of eighteen techniques. However, due to the war in the Yuan Dynasty, the relevant historical data of Qimen Dunjia was destroyed, making its exact origin difficult to explore. However, it was a combination of the Book of Changes, astrology, calendar, Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and many other disciplines. It included astronomy, calendar, war, strategy, philosophy, and many other aspects. It became a method to predict future events and was also the number one secret technique among the three secret treasures of Qimen, Liuren, and Taiyi. Many outstanding figures in ancient times, such as the legendary Yellow Emperor, Jiang Taigong, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, etc., were proficient in Qimen Dunjia and could use their knowledge to guide war and political decisions.
Qimen Dunjia was an ancient China art of divination. It was also the number one secret technique among the three secret treasures of Qimen, Liuren, and Taiyi. It was the first of the three techniques and the most logical. However, based on the current information, it was impossible to know the exact origin of Qimen Dunjia and other more detailed information.
The origin of Qimen Dunjia was difficult to explore. The war in the Yuan Dynasty led to the destruction of relevant historical data. It was generally believed that it originated from ancient divination. Some people said that it originated from the battle of the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan and Chiyou more than 4600 years ago. Legend has it that after the Yellow Emperor fought against Chiyou in Zhuolu, he had a dream that the gods had bestowed him with talismans. Later, he received a letter from a colorful phoenix, which created the basic pattern of Qimen Dunjia. At first, there were 4320 games in a year. Later, it was gradually simplified. By the time of Zhang Liang of the Western Han Dynasty, it was simplified to 18 games (Yang Escape Game and Yin Escape Game), which were still used today. There were also some who believed that Qimen Dunjia originated from the Book of Changes. The basic concepts of Yin Yang, Five Elements, Four Appearances and Eight Trigrams in the Book of Changes were first introduced before Qimen Dunjia. The two were closely related. In addition, the name Qimen Dunjia only appeared in the Ming Dynasty. Its predecessor was the Yin Written Charm Scripture.
Qimen Dunjia originated from the battle between the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan and Chiyou more than 4,600 years ago. At that time, Chiyou was seven feet tall, with an iron head and a copper body that was impenetrable by swords and spears. He could summon the wind and rain, creating fog on the battlefield to make the Yellow Emperor's troops lose their direction. The Yellow Emperor occasionally dreamed that God gave him a talisman, but he did not get the real talisman, so he went to the altar to offer sacrifices and pray devoutly. Later on, the Yellow Emperor obtained a book with a colorful phoenix in its mouth. The book recorded the relevant contents of Qimen Dunjia. The Yellow Emperor created the basic structure of Qimen Dunjia based on this. There were 360 days in a year, and there were 12 hours in a day, a total of 4320 hours. Every hour was a Qimen game. The Yellow Emperor ordered Empress Feng to write it down in words. Empress Feng found that every four rounds were the same, so she simplified it to 1080 rounds. From then on, she began to practice the Wonder Gate with 1080 rounds. In the process of its development, it was passed down to Jiang Taigong of the Zhou Dynasty, who used it to defeat King Zhou. Later, it was taught to Zhang Liang by Huang Shigong of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Liang helped Liu Bang establish the Han Dynasty with Qimen Dunjia. After the fall of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang used Qimen Dun Jia freely during the Three Kingdoms period. For example, when Lu Xun was chasing Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang set up a "stone array". This array used Qimen Dun Jia to make Lu Xun lose his direction. Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty had written many books on Qimen Dun Jia. He often used Qimen Dun Jia to assist Li Shimin in ascending the throne. Zhao Pu, the founding hero of the Song Dynasty, had a lot of experience in the application of Qimen Dunjia, and he wrote a "Jin Jing Biao" that contained the essence of Qimen Dunjia. In history, Qimen Dun Jia had been continuously improved. At first, there were 4096 rounds, then it was improved to 1080 rounds. In the Zhou Dynasty, Jiang Shang compressed it to 72 rounds due to the formation of the army. In the Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang was taught by Huang Shigong and changed it to nine rounds of Yin Evasion and nine rounds of Yang Evasion, a total of 18 rounds. It has been used until now. In history, the legendary Yellow Emperor, Jiang Taigong, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, and others were all typical representatives of Qimen Dun Jia. They used Qimen Dun Jia to guide war and political decisions.
Qimen Dunjia originated from the story of the Yellow Emperor fighting Chiyou. At that time, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought. Chiyou's tribe was very good at fighting, and the Yellow Emperor lost more than he won. One day, the Yellow Emperor dreamed of the Goddess of the Nine Heavens. The Goddess told him that if he wanted to defeat Chiyou, he needed to master the operation law of the nine stars in the sky. In the reflection of the earth, there were singularities and extreme gates (which were later the eight gates of Qimen Dunjia). She also told him how to find the eight gates. After the Yellow Emperor woke up, he recorded it and started to build a terrace to worship the heavens. Then, he reorganized his troops according to Qimen Dunjia and attacked from the Gate of Life to the Gate of Death, destroying the Chiyou tribe in one fell swoop. Qimen Dunjia was passed down from the Yellow Emperor to the Prime Minister, Empress Feng, and later passed down and developed by Jiang Ziya, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, and many other people. Jiang Ziya used Qimen Dun Jia to assist King Wu in establishing the Zhou Dynasty and changed it from 1080 to 72, while Zhang Liang learned Qimen Dun Jia from the old man and reduced the number of games from 72 to 18 (dividing the nine games of Yin and nine games of Yang). In history, many people such as Li Jing and Zhao Pu had also used Qimen Dunjia when they were marching, fighting, or governing a country. It was the highest level of prediction in Taoism, covering the four elements of time, geography, harmony, and divine assistance. Taiyi, Qimen, and Liuren were called the "three styles". Qimen was based on the earth element and measured collective things. However, due to the war in the Yuan Dynasty, the historical data related to Qimen Dunjia was destroyed, and its origin was difficult to explore. However, according to the ancient and modern book collection records, it originated more than 4600 years ago when the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou.
Qimen Dunjia originated from the time when the Yellow Emperor fought against Chiyou more than 4600 years ago. At that time, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought in Zhuolu. Chiyou had an iron head and a bronze body. He was invulnerable and could summon the wind and rain to create fog, causing the Yellow Emperor's troops to lose their direction. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor once dreamed that the God of Heaven granted him a talisman. Later, he went to the altar to offer sacrifices and practice devoutly. He also got auspicious images such as dragon turtle coming from Heluo water and colorful phoenix holding a letter in the blue clouds. He ordered the wind queen to perform this article. From then on, Qimen Dunjia began. Qimen Dunjia was popular in the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It originated from Qimen Dunjia and was regarded as the highest level of prediction in Taoism. It was a model of time, space, image, number and theory for the ancients to understand the objective world. It covered the four major elements of the success or failure of things, namely, the weather, the geographical location, the harmony of people, and the help of the gods. The goal was to win by surprise. Among them, the oddities were the three oddities of the heavenly stems, B, C, and D. The gates were the eight gates of opening, resting, living, injuring, stopping, scenery, death, and shock. In the long river of history, Qimen Dunjia played a positive role, such as Jiang Ziya helping King Wu of Zhou to establish the Zhou Dynasty, Zhang Liang helping Liu Bang to establish the Western Han regime, Zhuge Liang helping Liu Bei to establish the Shu Han regime, etc. Together with Taiyi and Liuren, it was called the "Three Styles". Taiyi mainly measured state affairs with Tianyuan, Qimen mainly measured collective affairs with Diyuan, and Liuren mainly measured human affairs with Renyuan. However, due to the war in the Yuan Dynasty, the historical materials related to Qimen Dunjia were destroyed, and there were certain difficulties in exploring its origin. In addition, the name Qimen Dunjia was only given in the Ming Dynasty. Its predecessor was the Yin Written Charm Scripture.
The origin of Qimen Dunjia was closely related to history. Qimen Dunjia originated from the era of the Yellow Emperor. At that time, the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou were fighting. Chiyou summoned the wind and rain to create a fog that made the Yellow Emperor's troops lose their direction. Later, the Yellow Emperor received the Heavenly Seal Script Dragon Armor Divine Chapter from the Nine Heavenly Maidens. The contents recorded in it were interpreted by the Wind Empress as Qimen Dunjia related content. This was the legend of the origin of Qimen Dunjia, reflecting its ancient historical origins. In the long river of history, Qimen Dun Jia continued to develop and change. From the Wind Empress '4,380 games to 1080 games (including 540 games of Yang Escape and 540 games of Yin Escape), to the Zhou Dynasty's Jiang Taigong's 1080 games to 72 games, and then to the Han Dynasty's Huang Shi old man's teaching to Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang's 72 games to 18 games (nine games of Yang Escape and nine games of Yin Escape). In different historical periods, many famous figures such as Jiang Ziya, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Li Jing, Liu Bowen, etc. used Qimen Dunjia to help establish dynasties and carry out military strategies. This shows that the development and application of Qimen Dunjia runs through the historical process. Although some of the historical materials of the Yuan Dynasty were destroyed due to the war, Qimen Dunjia was inextricably linked to events and characters in various historical periods from its origin to its development.
From 2002 to 2010, the top ten teachers who contributed to the spread of China divination culture were as follows: 1. Zhang Zhichun, an academic prodigy of the times... However, it was difficult to determine the "best" Qimen Dunjia teacher in an absolute sense because the evaluation criteria for Qimen Dunjia's teaching and research level were more complicated and diverse. Different teachers might have their own strengths in different aspects.
The Qimen Dunjia ranking method and steps were as follows: ##1. Arrange Four Pillars Converting the solar calendar time at the start of the game into the Ganzhi representation was similar to opening the eight characters. ##2. Finality 1. ** Confirm Yin Yang Escape ** - Yang Escape: The period after the winter solstice and before the summer solstice is Yang Escape. - Yin Escape: The period after the summer solstice and before the winter solstice is Yin Escape. 2. ** Count the number of rounds ** - The number of games is the remainder of (year branch number + month number + day number + hour branch number) divided by 9. ##3. Draw a nine-square grid It was more popular to draw the grid of Jing, but the Taoist school predicted that the layout of the ancient method of Qi Men would be the best. ##4. Setting up the Land, Three Wonders and Six Rituals 1. According to the number of games, according to the principle of Yang game smooth distribution, Yin game reverse distribution: Wu Ji Geng Xin Ren Gui Ding Bing Yi. For example, the first game of Yang Escape is E in the 1st palace, the second game of Yang Escape is E in the 2nd palace, and so on, the ninth game of Yang Escape is E in the 9th palace, the first game of Yin Escape is E in the 1st palace, the second game of Yin Escape is E in the 2nd palace, and so on, the ninth game of Yin Escape is E in the 9th palace. In this way, the fifth round of the game fell into the palace. 2. One had to remember the Nine Palaces, and when arranging the "territory", one only needed to arrange the "Three Oddity and Six Instruments" in the Nine Palaces. The order was fixed to be Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui, Ding, C, and B (Three Oddity and Six Instruments). ##5. Find the Ten Songs 1. The first ten days are: Jiazi Wu, Jiaxu Ji, Jiashen Geng, Jiawu Xin, Jiachen Ren, Jiayin Gui. Xun Shou was found by Shi Zhu. 2. For example, when the prediction of Renshen, then the first ten days is Jiazi Wu; At the end of Ding, the first ten days are Jiachen Ren. It could be determined by checking the corresponding relationship, which was similar to the method of finding Xunkong in the eight characters and six lines. 3. The pithy formula of Liujia's emptiness and death: Jiazi ten days in the middle of Xu Hai empty, Jiaxu ten days in the middle of Shen You empty, Jiashen ten days at noon not empty, Jiawu ten days in the middle of Chen Si empty, Jiachen ten days in the middle of Yin Mao empty, Jiayin ten days in the middle of the neutron ugly empty. For example, after determining the number of Xunkongs in a certain hour, one could use this chant to determine the situation of Xunkong. ##6. Fixed Value Talisman and Value Envoy Gate Whichever palace the ten-day head of the territory fell in, the star and gate of that palace would be the value talisman and the value envoy gate.

Qimen Dunjia originated from the battle between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou more than 4,600 years ago. At that time, the Chiyou brothers were numerous and strong. They could summon the wind and rain, creating fog on the battlefield to make the Yellow Emperor's troops lose their direction. One night, something unusual happened in the Xuan Yuan Mound. The Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden came down with the Heavenly Seal Script, Dragon Armor, and Divine Chapter. The Yellow Emperor created a south-pointing chariot according to the records in the book to defeat Chiyou. In addition to the weapon forging method, the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter also recorded many military strategies. The Yellow Emperor asked the prime minister Feng Hou to deduce it into the 13 chapters of the art of war, the 12 chapters of the Gu Xu method, and the 1080 rounds of Qimen Dun Jia (there were originally 4,380 rounds, but after the wind changed according to the symbolic meaning of the four seasons and four hours, it was reduced to 1080 rounds, including 540 rounds of Yang Escape and 540 rounds of Yin Escape). Later, Jiang Taigong of the Zhou Dynasty evolved the 1080 games into 72 games. In the Han Dynasty, Huang Shi passed it on to Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang discovered that the changes of Qimen were not separated from the Book of Luo, so he evolved the 72 games into 18 games (including the nine games of Yang Escape and the nine games of Yin Escape). In history, Qimen Dun Jia was related to many famous figures, such as Jiang Ziya who helped King Wu of Zhou establish the Zhou Dynasty; Zhang Liang who helped Liu Bang establish the Western Han regime; Zhuge Liang who helped Liu Bei establish the Shu Han regime; Wang Meng who helped Fu Jian establish the former Qin regime; Li Jing and Xu Maogong who helped Li Shimin unify the rivers and mountains; Zhao Pu who helped Zhao Kuangyin establish the Song Dynasty; Liu Bowen who helped Zhu Yuanzhang establish the Ming Dynasty. In ancient times, it was mostly used in wars and helped to establish dynasties. It was called the "study of emperors" and "the highest prediction science". It integrated the Book of Changes, astronomy, calendar, geography, mathematics, and the theory of Yin and Yang. However, due to the war in the Yuan Dynasty, the historical data related to Qimen Dunjia was destroyed, and its specific origin was difficult to explore. Qimen Dun Jia could be categorized by time, language, use of pictures, folk, and other methods. For example, by time, there were the Year Family Qimen, the Moon Family Qimen, the Ri Family Qimen, the Shi Family Qimen, and so on.
There were many teachers teaching the Qimen Dun Jia course, and each teacher had their own characteristics. For example, Teacher Sun Ziyun had her own way of teaching the Qimen Dun Jia course, which could make ancient Taoist techniques simple, easy to understand, easy to use, and effective. Dai Daogui was the inheritor of the Miaopai Tianxing Qimen Dun Jia course, with a deep background knowledge of Yi learning and original research. Teacher Zhang Jingkuan was rigorous in his studies. He had many years of experience in studying Yi and learning Qimen Dunjia. He had also studied under many masters and had unique insights into Qimen Dunjia and Chinese medicine. He had also held public lectures and professional training in Beijing and all over the country. Teacher Bai Yu was an expert in China Yi learning. He might also have his own views on Qimen Dunjia teaching. However, it was difficult to directly determine which teacher gave the best lecture. It depended on factors such as the students 'learning goals, preferences, and adaptability to different teaching styles. The novel "Taoist Qianshan" is equally wonderful.
