The grim-faced Taoist priest heard this and said doubtfully: "Didn't you say that the carpenter's shop where the work was done back then? How can you get the whereabouts of the Immortal Cave from there? And what exactly is the Immortal Cave? You have gone around a lot to scare the poor Taoist to death. What?"
"Don't worry, didn't you want me to explain the whole story clearly? The place where I work is not an ordinary carpenter's shop. Has the Taoist Master of the Mohist Guild ever heard of it?"
"Mo Family?" The grim-faced Taoist priest instantly became more energetic: "The Mohist's Guild is the tenth ranked sect in Shanlingpu. How could I not know that this has something to do with the Mohist's Guild?"
"It's a big relationship." He Siniang leaned against the wall and said: "Since Taoist Master has heard of the Mohists' Guild, I won't go into details about his origins. I just say that this sect is good at making all kinds of wonders. Utensils, and even the mechanisms and pins in the tomb are readily available, so they are ranked tenth on the mausoleum list. However, the actual situation is that since the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, the Mohist family has gradually declined and declined, and by the mid-Han Dynasty it was almost extinct. , the few remaining descendants have also lived an anonymous life. Some have started their own carpentry business, and some have made a fortune by relying on their crafts. For example, the ancestors of the owner of the carpentry shop where I worked were in troubled times. He entered the Mushroom Sect and took the name of the organization from the heyday of the Mohist family as the name of the sect. This is the origin of the Mohist Guild on the Shanling Genealogy."
The owner of this carpentry shop is called Meng Qingyao. His ancestor is Meng Sheng, who died in the city during the Warring States Period. The leader of the Mohist guild at that time was called "Big Man", and Mo Zhai, the founder of Mohism, was the first Big Man. Meng Qingyao's ancestor Meng Shengnai was the third tycoon. He was later martyred in Yangcheng and passed the tycoon token to Tian Xiangzi before his death.
When the Meng family passed down to Meng Qingyao's generation, they basically stopped making a living from fighting. They only opened a carpentry shop in Qinzhou and did some woodworking business on the surface. Secretly, like Luo Wancai, they collected artifacts and resold them. For Dangxiang of the Northern Wei Dynasty, one foot is still in the stealing door, and the other foot has already stepped into the gold code business.
Meng Qingyao's business is quite big and he is very famous in the Qinzhou area. This is also the reason why there are so few people in this industry. People in the world like to sell everything they have from him.
The story happened more than a month ago. A middle-aged man came to Meng Qingyao's shop. He was dressed in ordinary clothes. He looked like a farmer working hard in the fields. When he entered the shop, he didn't say anything about Jianghu. He just asked here. Is it to collect "stuff"?
At first, Meng Qingyao thought that this man was here to amuse her, and she only dealt with him a few words as usual. However, as soon as he showed the things, Meng Qingyao's expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly invited him to the inner room.
The thing was a palm-sized square card. Although the color on the surface was a bit dim, Meng Qingyao could tell at a glance that it was made of pure gold. It only turned into such a color after being soaked in water for many years. Meng Qingyao took the gold medal and Looking back and forth at the carvings on it, I saw that the pattern on the front was of a general in armor riding a giant python, holding a mountain axe, looking to kill an enemy, and on the back were two lines of text engraved in ancient Chinese script, This kind of font is thick and round, and it was the most common font in Longdi before Qin Zhuan. But Meng Qingyao could only distinguish the fonts, but not the meaning. Meng Qingyao had a vague feeling that this thing was not trivial, so he gave it to Zhong The young man poured a cup of tea and inquired carefully about the origin of this object.
The middle-aged man was unwilling to disclose the origin of this object at first, but Meng Qingyao only said that it was the rule of the world, and he would keep it a secret even if he found out its origin. A man started doing this business, and finally he coaxed and deceived into a price that almost made him faint. After the man got excited, he told the whole story about the origin of the object.
It turns out that he just picked up this thing by the river. He was a hunter named Gong Buquan. Because he was the second eldest son in the family, he was also called Gong Laoer. Gong Laoer's village got its name because of the willow trees. It is called "Yangliu Village". There is a river in the north of the village, which is a tributary of the Wei River. It is called "Huishui". The waves are dangerous all year round and the current is fast, making it difficult for boats to cross. Just a month and a half ago, an earthquake occurred in the area from Wudu Town to Qinzhou. Fortunately, there are no big towns here, so it did not cause a major disaster. After the natural disaster, Orion Gong Laoer went up to the mountains to hunt as usual, but was surprised to find that the earthquake Afterwards, the water flow changed its course, and only a gurgling stream remained in the original river. Now, not to mention the difficulty of crossing by boat, a woman rolled up her trouser legs and flowed across. And this gold medal is Gong Laoer's drying up. Found on the river.
Gong Laoer also revealed an important piece of news, which is that on the north bank of the Huishui River, there is a horseshoe-shaped valley, surrounded by peaks on three sides, with the Huishui River flowing to the south. This valley has high cliffs in the north and dangerous currents in the south, so it is difficult to interact with people all year round. However, it was surrounded by clouds and mist so that the true appearance could not be seen. The local people also circulated the legend that there was a tomb of gods there from generation to generation. Now the discovery of this gold medal in the river further deepened Gong Laoer's agreement with this statement and planned to find another day. So I went into the valley to find out. If I find any treasures in the future, I hope the shopkeeper can collect them all.
Meng Qingyao naturally agreed, and then while Gong Laoer made money and was enjoying himself in the city, he set off to Yangliu Village alone that day. He came here for no other reason than to confirm a conjecture in his mind. If this is really what I expected, then the poison that He Siniang mentioned in his letter some time ago will be saved.
It was already evening when they arrived at the place. Although Meng Qingyao was young and not good at fighting, he still had the knowledge left by his ancestors and he also knew a little about Feng Shui. He stood on the mountainside behind the river and looked around the valley opposite, and found this place. As expected, the entire mountain is shaped like a throne, with the original water flowing in front of it. This is called the "King's Rest" in great Feng Shui, and it is a real fairy point.
After Meng Qingyao stepped on the plate, he turned around and returned to Qinzhou. He asserted that this was the location of the fairy cave that had been rumored in Longdi, and it would not be stolen easily, because the clouds and mist in the valley were not mist at all, but deadly. The poisonous miasma, if you enter without precautions, you will definitely die.
After returning to Qinzhou, he first guessed the identity of the owner of the gold medal based on clues. The weird-shaped giant python on the gold medal attracted his attention. There were a row of fins on both sides of the python's head, and the whole body was covered like dragon scales. scales. If you guessed correctly, the strange beast depicted here should be called "Yin Hu". Ancient books record that snakes will transform into dragons after being born for thousands of years. If they grow in a place with extremely heavy Yin energy, they will turn into a kind of snake called "Yin Hu". The strange beast of "hino", the yin hu beast is ferocious and likes to kill. It is the evil beast that leads the war. Thinking of this, Meng Qingyao suddenly thought of a person. This person was the son of Qin Chenggong - Zhao Wuxiang.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Degong had three sons. After his death, the throne was passed to his eldest son, Qin Xuangong. The three brothers of Qin Xuangong were very modest about the throne. Although Qin Xuangong had nine sons, he still passed the throne to his younger brother Qin Chenggong after his death. Qin Chenggong also did not have seven sons. As king, the throne was finally passed to his younger brother Qin Mugong, who was known as a domineering king.
The second son of Qin Chenggong's seven sons was named Zhao Unknown. He was named because of the unknown omen of thunder all night long when he was born. This man's life was quite legendary. Although he was not crowned king, he assisted Qin Mugong in making great military exploits and wiped out the Rong people's regime for 20 years. After his death, Duke Mu of Qin gave him the title of "King Hui" to show his bravery.
Zhao's unknown title is said to be King Hui or "King Hui", because it is said that this person fought on the battlefield riding a huge dark snake and holding a mountain-cutting ax. Everyone who heard it was frightened, but the real situation at that time What it is like has been buried in history for more than a thousand years. No one can judge the authenticity now. However, Meng Qingyao basically concluded that the gold medal belonged to Zhao Ouxiang. As for why it appeared near the Immortal Cave, could it be that he changed this place to Build your own mausoleum?
