The next day, Uncle Geng went to his niece's house in Chongling. Xiao Zhang, a venomous snake expert and doctor, was at home preparing the Eagle Mouth Plan.
Wang Ke and Gu Maolin took Professor Wen, Professor Ye Rongguang and Ye Pianpian and went straight to the cave to investigate.
I didn't bring anything else with me today. Wang Ke brought his three-section flashlight and lantern. Since the hole has natural ventilation holes, there is no need to worry about lack of oxygen.
Since there are no specimens to collect, no tools are needed? So there is no need to drive the car. After the five people had breakfast, they strolled towards the cemetery.
Along the way, Wang Ke will introduce you all the way.
"Longquan Village has a terrain that is high in the west and low in the east. There are mountains to the north and south. Longquan Village is built at the foot of the mountain in the north. It can also be said that Longquan Village is as long as the mountains in the north are." Wang Ke was talking about his findings, and the four people following him were listening, especially Professor Ye Rongguang and Professor Wen.
"This Longquan Village has been around for a very long time. It is said that it used to be called Longyuan Village. It was later renamed."
Wang Ke continued to introduce, but others had nothing to say. Professor Wen was suddenly shocked, and he called out to Wang Ke. "Why the name change?"
"Daddy Wen, I guess it has something to do with an emperor from the previous dynasty." After saying this, everyone was silent. Wang Ke pointed to the three tall white poplar trees at the east end of the village and said, "Those three See the white poplar tree, there is a stone bridge underneath it."
Everyone looked towards Shudong. Ye Qianqian took a look and immediately shouted: "Brother Bing, I saw it, I saw it."
After Wang Ke finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance at Godfather Wen, for fear that he had said something wrong.
As for the godfather, Professor Wen, he did not speak. Instead, he put up an awning and looked toward the east of the village. Look at the village and then at your feet, look around again and again, and nod.
At this time, there are thousands of rays of light in the east, and the villages, trees, and fields seem to be covered with a layer of golden rays of light.
"Wang Ke, tell me, why don't you stop talking?" Professor Ye Rongguang, who was listening in rapt attention, suddenly noticed that Wang Ke had stopped abruptly, so he turned around and asked.
Wang Ke looked at Professor Wen again. After getting a look of affirmation, he continued: "The original Longyuan Village was most proud of the rivers and springs above. When it flowed from the northwest to the south of the village, it was watered here. A bend forms seven consecutive ponds, and the water in the ponds is connected, just like the seven stars of the Big Dipper."
"Brother Bing, why did you change the name because of these seven ponds?" Ye Qianqian was curious again, but now looking eastward, he saw the small bridge and flowing water, Wang Ke was wearing a military uniform, and he was also covered with a layer of golden sunshine. He put his hands on his hips and pointed with one finger, which was really powerful. She quickly pressed the shutter of her camera and took a backlit photo of Wang Ke.
Wang Ke noticed that Ye Xianzhan was taking pictures of himself, and said with a smile: "Teacher Xiao Ye, film is precious, so you can take random pictures."
"Brother Bing, please tell me quickly. You don't have to worry about my affairs!"
"Yes, Xiao Wang Ke, please continue." Professor Ye Rongguang was also a little anxious, just like a person listening to a book, listening to an important point, but suddenly stopped.
"Daddy Wen, why don't you come and tell me?" Wang Ke guarded Professor Wen, not daring to do whatever he wanted to do.
"Haha, Wang Ke was introduced by you, not me, so you say it boldly." After hearing this, Professor Wen was quite satisfied that his godson had applied what he had learned and discovered the world with his own eyes. Mystery. So while he was satisfied, he also wanted to hear Wang Ke's findings and explanations.
"Then... Godfather Wen, I'm just talking nonsense. If I'm wrong, you can correct me."
Wang Ke cleared his throat and continued to introduce: "Longquan itself is a sword. According to legend, Longquan sword is one of the ten famous swords in ancient China, also known as Longyuan sword. It began in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, more than 2,600 years ago. . It was made by two great swordsmen, Ou Yezi and Qianjiang. In order to cast this sword, the mountain was dug to release the mountain streams and led to the seven pools next to the sword-making furnace. After the sword was completed, it was like climbing a mountain and looking down into the abyss, ethereal. And it is so deep that it looks like a giant dragon is lying down, so it is called Longyuan Sword.
"Ou Yezi was a native of Yue during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was he who discovered the difference between copper and iron. The Longyuan Sword was also the first iron sword in China, creating a precedent for cold weapons. History says that he also cast Zhanlu, The five swords are Chunjun, Shengxie, Yuchang, and Juque. In the Tang Dynasty, because the name of the great ancestor Li Yuan was taboo, later generations changed the word Yuan to the word Quan."
After Wang Ke finished speaking, Professor Ye Rongguang was shocked when Ye Xianqian heard it half-understood. If these words came from Professor Wen's mouth, he would not be surprised at all, but Wang Ke is just a soldier, a soldier who has been a soldier for several years.
Ye Rongguang looked at Wang Ke with some disbelief, and then looked at the seven ponds in front of him. High five immediately. He praised loudly: "Yes, yes, the current terrain is very similar to the place where Ou Yezi forged the Beidou Qiyuan Sword."
"Uncle Ye, do you also know about the Beidou Qiyuan Sword?"
"Hahaha, Old Ye, you will have a formidable future, how about my godson?" Professor Wen laughed loudly, but both Ye Xianqian and Gu Maolin were stunned by the laughter.
"Uncle Wen, no, Teacher Wen, what does the Beidou Qiyuan Sword have to do with Longquanzhuang?"
"Teacher Xiaoye, Beidou Qiyuan Sword is another name of Longquan Sword." Wang Ke said quietly to Ye Qianqian.
"It's true, Brother Bing, you are so awesome." Shilian Sanri looked at him with admiration. Ye Qian did not expect Wang Ke's progress to be so rapid, and now he was learning on the spot. The key is that she accidentally showed it off in front of her father, so she was very, very happy. "Brother Bing, is this how Longquanzhuang got its name?"
"Teacher Xiaoye, I'm just speculating. I don't know if this is the case?"
"Well, we should ask the owner of the cemetery to verify this matter. Why did the cemetery abandon so many good places and choose a location here?"
Ye Rongguang also made jokes, but he was still quite satisfied with the "prospective son-in-law" in front of him. My daughter has a good taste. A small Longquan Village can actually tell so many stories. But you have to admit that if this Longquan Village, which is as slender as a sword, and the seven ponds in front of you, are groundless, then what is going on with the cemetery next to it?
There have always been very few people who see through the treasures of Feng Shui. Only those who see through things without telling them are wise.
With that said, the group of people had already passed through the cemetery and arrived at the south side of the wall.
The terrain here cannot be said to be steep, but it is very rugged. Less than a hundred meters away from the south wall of the cemetery, there are towering trees, thickets of thorns, shade from the sun, and continuous vegetation. Walking further inside, the view of the mountain forest is blocked, and the surrounding light immediately dims.
"I know how to choose a place." Professor Wen was excited when he saw a place like this. He looked back at the village and saw that it had been obscured by the cemetery. Looking to the west and south, there are all dense woods and basil, not even a trail.
I walked straight in, climbed over a rugged rock, and finally found a small dark hole there, blocked by a few stones. If Wang Ke hadn't brought him here, he might not have noticed it if he walked up to him.
"right here?"
"Yes." Wang Ke and Gu Maolin began to clear the stones blocking the hole, while Professor Wen and Professor Ye Rongguang seemed to be positioning themselves.
"Platoon leader? Can you move down?" Soldier Gu Maolin saw that the cleaning was almost done, so he turned around and asked.
"Exit, you take the flashlight and I'll light the lantern." After Wang Ke said that, he took the lantern from Gu Maolin's hand and squatted down to light it.
But before they could squat down, an animal came out of the hole with a "whoo" sound. Everyone was shocked and didn't react in time.
Moreover, the animal screamed in a low voice and kept running without looking back. As it ran, it spit out stinking, thin feces along the way.
"Ah!" Ye Pianqiang shouted and threw himself on Wang Ke.
Wang Ke ducked out of the way and hugged Ye Xianqian. Then he took a closer look and saw that it was a khaki-colored dog. It called this place its home.
This is the second time Wang Ke has seen a dog in Longquanzhuang. It’s hard to say whether this dog is the same dog as last time, but the stinky poop it produces is so smelly that even Ye Rongguang and Professor Wen can’t help it. Covered his nose.
Doesn’t dog poop stink so much? ! Professor Ye Rongguang was also disappointed by this dog and the dog poop. He explained that many animals only instinctively secrete very smelly secretions when their lives are threatened, just like humans. .
"Dad, are we extremely dangerous enemies in its eyes?" Ye Xianqian asked as he was still in shock.
"That's not enough, but it is obviously frightened. I can't explain why." Ye Rongguang was also a little confused by this episode. This was the first time he saw a dog and he was frightened. so.
"I guess, our platoon leader is still the most powerful!" Gu Maolin lost no time in flattering him.
"Why do you say that?" Professor Ye Rongguang was the first to enter the situation. He was now puzzled. If it is possible that the wild dog was frightened, there must be a reason for being so frightened. The reason is not inside the cave, but must be outside the cave. .
"Last time, our landlord, Uncle Geng, was attacked by a wild dog and was subdued by our platoon leader." Gu Maolin added carelessly.
"How did you subdue him?" Ye Rongguang suddenly became interested.
"Professor Ye, I was not there. But I later heard Wang Mingsheng from our class say that when the mad dog saw our platoon leader, he immediately acted as if he had been possessed by a demon and had seen a ghost. He closed his eyes, howled, tucked his tail and wanted to run away. I don’t know if it smells bad or not, but I don’t dare to move anymore!”
"Really? Brother Bing." After listening to Gu Maolin's words, Ye Pianxi turned to ask Wang Ke. Now in her eyes, Wang Ke is like a god.
"Yeah, that's why I said our platoon leader is so powerful! All dogs are afraid of him."
Professor Ye Rongguang looked at Wang Ke carefully. Wang Ke was also puzzled. After Gu Maolin said this, Wang Ke remembered that it was indeed like this at that time. The mad dog with the grinning teeth cowed as soon as he saw him, and he immediately clamped his tail. It also screamed "Woo" in terror.
"It's interesting, little Wang Ke, don't you think there's anything unusual about you?" Ye Rongguang had no idea that Wang Ke was the dog's nemesis. This peculiar zoological phenomenon occurs only once in a century. Of course, the reason still needs to be verified. If it is true that dogs are afraid of Wang Ke, then we need to study it carefully.
"Uncle Ye, no, but these cats and dogs do seem to be afraid of me." Wang Ke was quite proud, but there was one thing he didn't say, that was when he wanted to squat down to light the lamp just now, there was something in his right breast pocket. There is indeed something that I suddenly came up with.
But in that pocket, there were only the snake stone used as a "talisman" and the mahjong tile Yaoji. Could it be that these things in the pocket are "appearing"?
When he thought of "Snake Stone", Wang Ke immediately said: "Uncle Ye, Godfather Wen, there is something I forgot to report to you. Look." As Wang Ke said, he took the piece of snake stone from his left breast pocket. He took out the two things wrapped in a piece of cloth, took out the glass-like snake stone and handed it to Ye Rongguang.
Godfather Wen accidentally glanced at him and saw that this godson was so childlike that he actually packed a mahjong tile.
"What is this?" Ye Rongguang has never seen these things before, and naturally he doesn't know them either.
"Snake stone?"
"What snake stone?"
"It's a snake treasure. It's the same as the cockscomb snake in Nanshao Village. I got it from Eagle Mouth."
Upon hearing the eagle's mouth, Ye Rongguang and Professor Wen immediately opened their eyes and quickly looked over.
