As soon as these words came out
Everyone present was silent.
The fat man heard nothing.
But Lao Hu and Da Jinya had different expressions at the moment.
It wasn't until a moment later that Da Jinya came back to his senses and exclaimed in shock: "Chen... Mr. Chen, was the leader of Xiling back then!?"
This exclamation came from Da Jinya's heart. This was the first time he knew about Blind Chen's past, but the exposure of his identity did not make him expect it at all.
"Chief Xie Ling?" After hearing these words, the fat man instantly remembered the situation in the ancient tomb before, and saw that Old Hu also had a surprised expression, but he couldn't understand it, so he simply said: "Ouch~~ I said , can you all speak clearly at once! Mr. Jin, what is the background of the old man who is the shopkeeper? What is the situation in Xiling? You are going back and forth without explaining it clearly. It makes my head spin. Big!”
In fact, Fatty wanted to ask this question as early as when he was in the cemetery. The reason why the three people did not shoot directly was largely because of the fact that General Xiling was in charge. At that time, he wanted to find out, but the old man Hu didn't have time to explain to him, so he kept this question until now.
Now it was finally time to come clean, but everyone was talking like the Riddler, which made him feel uncomfortable, so he just opened his mouth to break the deadlock...
"Fat man, don't worry, please listen to me slowly." Seeing the fat man's anxious look, Da Jinya quickly waved his hands to comfort him, and then said: "It is said that there was a man in western Hunan back then. His ancestor was the leader of three generations of thieves! He was a man of righteousness and wealth. , robbed the rich and gave to the poor, and often opened warehouses to release grain! His reputation was also very big in the green forest at that time, and the group of people under him were all extraordinary in martial arts, and they were very good at fighting against each other. He has the power of the sea and the ability to climb mountains and build bridges, so he is called the Shaling Warrior!"
"At that time, this Xiiling network had more than 100,000 people on Nanqi North Road. It was famous in the green forest and powerful throughout the world!"
“Wherever you go to a mountain that is always victorious, you must place incense and pay homage to the mountain!”
"In the green forest, heroes from all walks of life are at the command of Changsheng Mountain."
"And the owner of Changsheng Mountain is the shopkeeper's old man, who is known as the leader of Xiling - Chen Yulou!"
After Da Jinya finished speaking, he clasped his hands in his fists. Even though Chen Yulou is not at the wine table now, people can't help but sigh when talking about what happened back then.
At that time, Chen Yulou was the majestic and justifiable Lord of Xiangxi!
Although he was a rebel, he also helped the people and often opened granaries to release grain!
He has a prominent status and is a righteous man, and it is precisely because of this that he can command hundreds of thousands of thieves to obey his orders.
At this moment, the words fell, and the fat man's eyes were filled with shock. He couldn't help but look back at Chen Hao.
No wonder the shopkeeper is so unusual!
He has extraordinary wisdom and the courage and courage of a big man!
His vision and ability are the key to making Fatty convinced. Now that he hears the story of that year, Fatty is even more determined to follow Chen Hao to do great things!
"No wonder the three grandsons immediately requested cooperation as soon as they heard that we were from the Xieling lineage." The fat man couldn't help but nod frequently when he heard this.
"Huh? Shopkeeper, what sect is that third grandson? Is he from the sects you mentioned before?"
The words at this moment once again led to the previous tomb.
The fat man's words instantly reminded Chen Hao.
"Speaking of this... I don't know if you have noticed that those three people have three tokens hanging on their bodies." Chen Hao put down his wine glass and turned his eyes to everyone. The fat man's reminder reminded him The doubts discovered before.
"Huh?? Token? What token?" Da Jinya looked confused and obviously didn't notice.
"I did notice it, but it was too dark inside and I didn't see it clearly." Lao Hu frowned and shook his head.
After hearing these words, Chen Hao immediately said: "Those are three silver tokens, with the four characters written on them: [Guanshan Taibao]!"
"Guanshan Taibao?" Fatty and Da Jinya asked questions at the same time. The doubts in their eyes also revealed that they did not know this business at all.
Only Lao Hu was silent for a moment and then said: "I didn't expect... to meet the descendants of the Guanshan Taibao! But... hiss! Something is wrong."
Chen Hao heard the sound and smiled: "You also noticed something was wrong, right?"
When the fat man heard this, he looked at Da Jinya in confusion, and quickly asked: "Old Hu, what code words did you say to the shopkeeper?"
Being nudged by the fat man with his arm, Hu Bayi came to his senses and immediately said: "In the early Ming Dynasty, in order to build a mausoleum, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Liu Bowen to find a group of capable and righteous people for him, and this group of people It’s called the [Coffin Mountain Taibao]! But at that time, they were the coffins of coffins! To put it bluntly, these Coffin Mountain Taibao were people who knew Feng Shui, were good at building, and were good at visiting tombs and stargazing.”
"Afterwards, they completed the construction of the mausoleum. Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy that he awarded them a series of gold medals with the words [Guanshan Taibao] engraved on them. From then on, Guanshan Taibao remained in the imperial court."
"Later, Guanshan Taibao used his position in the court to destroy the four major sects of Daedou so that he could obtain the world's treasures and explore the world's tombs. Therefore, he also forged grudges with the four sects..."
"Hiss..." After hearing this, the fat man couldn't help but bared his teeth and snorted: "Hey! Don't tell me, this style of doing things is really similar to those three grandsons."
"It's just that... the waist badge of Guanshan Taibao has always been made of pure gold. It is a treasure that has been passed down since the time of Zhu Yuanzhang. Although the three people are wearing the badges of Guanshan Taibao, they are It's made of silver, and the material looks very similar to the later production process, so I thought... there might be some reason for this." Chen Hao couldn't help but squint as he recalled the situation at that time. Squint.
From the first moment he saw the waist card, he sensed something was wrong, but unfortunately he didn't know much about these guys.
The only time is to go back and ask Old Man Chen.
after dinner
Everyone went back to their rooms and lay down.
Because there were limited rooms in this small county, we only had two. Old Hu and Fatty lived together, and Da Jinya and Chen Hao lived together.
There are simply two beds in the house, which is very convenient for everyone to live in.
night
Da Jinya pours foot wash water when he goes out
And Chen Hao began to feed the mink with meat!
Speaking of which, this little thing is quite sensible. He seems to know that his former owner is dead, so he doesn't reject Chen Hao too much. When Chen Hao hands him things, he will eat them. After he is full, he will eat them. He would get into Chen Hao's clothes and curl up to sleep, just like a kitten.
Chen Hao didn't say much, thinking that this little guy originally got it from Feng Liuli, and animals like animals also have emotions. Since it didn't hurt him or reject him, it meant that there was something wrong with him. Fate, then you can try to raise this guy yourself. In the future, he might be able to help you.
soon
Da Jinya poured the water and walked in from outside with a basin in hand.
Seeing Chen Hao who was busy, he wiped his feet and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, when I was pouring water, something suddenly occurred to me."
"Huh?" Chen Hao was busy with the things in his hands and did not raise his head. He just said "huh?" in confusion.
"Do you know why I know so much about Mr. Chen's boss?" Da Jinya shook the water from his legs and said in a serious tone.
"Because, my grandfather actually worked under Mr. Chen back then!" Da Jinya said seriously while changing his feet: "I guess... our master and servant's Fate, maybe it will be there by then.
"Your grandpa? Why haven't I heard you talk about it before?" Chen Hao raised his head and glanced at the big gold tooth in surprise. Such a topic was really beyond his expectation.
"Hey~~Before this, I didn't know that your old man was the leader of Xiling! And I only heard about this matter in pieces when our old man was still confused. , Otherwise, how could I know the old man’s past so well?” Da Jinya threw away the footcloth, crossed his legs on the kang, and said seriously: “Actually, my grandfather is not that powerful, just those ten One of tens of thousands.”
"In those days, Mr. Chen wanted to recruit heroes from all over the world, and he would give a meal to those who were capable! But my grandfather was tall and strong at that time, so he worshiped Mount Changsheng!"
"I heard from my grandfather that one year Xiangxi just experienced a plague, and its vitality was severely damaged! There were many more victims in Xiangxi. Mr. Chen kept opening warehouses for several days to release grain, but he was treating the symptoms but not the root cause! So he became entangled with his brothers. I planned to visit an ancient tomb. Originally, my grandfather was supposed to accompany the general manager, but unfortunately, my grandfather was infected with the plague and could not go on the road, so the opportunity was missed."
"Later, Mr. Chen came back with his head, but this trip to visit the tomb did not go well. Mr. Chen injured his head. After that, a lot of things happened in Xiling!"
"I heard from my grandpa that one day, Mr. Chen took a long trip. When he came back, he immediately disbanded Xiling. After that, Xiling was gone."
After listening to Da Jinya's words, Chen Hao raised his eyebrows subconsciously, and the movements in his hands stopped involuntarily.
He vaguely felt that the version Lao Jin said was different from what he knew.
He remembered, didn't Chen Yulou lose his tricks when he went to the king's tomb, and a lot of brothers died, and he was the only one left? How come we are here, only taking a part of the people with us and coming back injured? Xie Ling who disbanded on his own?
The old man told him the same thing before. What he said was that when he went to dedicate the king's tomb, he lost his trick and his brother died. From then on, he could only wander around the world alone.
Could it be that...the old man is lying to himself?
Recalling the years when he was in contact with Chen Yulou, he always felt that he had something he was reluctant to talk about.
But because Chen Hao understood this, he never asked or questioned, until this unexpected trip to reverse fighting, he discovered many strange things.
The Guanshan Taibao wearing a silver medal, the truth that is different from that of the past, and the three strange silver needles in the tomb.
All these doubts made Chen Hao feel that it was not simple.
It seems that I have to speed up the matter here and go back early to ask Old Man Chen.
