Liao Qi
Old Liu Tou took out the dagger and looked at it carefully, and found that the end of the dagger handle was engraved with two faint seal characters: Ask the sky.
"This..." Old Liu Tou couldn't say a word excitedly, this is a legendary treasure blade, some people say yes, some say no, according to legend, the Warring States sword casting master Ou Yezi (Note (1)) when making a pure Jun sword, the cold iron used to make the sword was left with one pound and two taels, so he created this dagger by the way, after the dagger was cast, suddenly red rain fell from the sky, Ou Yezi didn't know what was going on, so he named this blade "Ask the Heaven", and later this dagger became a guy used by successive royal families, do nothing else, specifically used to cut "heavy ministers" of meat.
According to legend, Liu Bang once promised Han Xin that he would not kill him with a knife, so he inserted Han Xin's bamboo skewer alive, but in wild history legends, the bamboo skewer is just Liu Bang's face to hide his ears, and the Son of Heaven is not afraid of the world's shame, and in fact, Han Xin was executed by Ling Chi, and the guy who executed was this "Ask the Heavens", in the Song Dynasty, Ling Chi torture was once abolished, "Ask the Heavens" was just a plaything of the court, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was this "Ask the Heavens" used to execute the famous general Yuan Chonghuan.
In fact, the emperor is not afraid of heaven and earth, according to ancient legends, ministers are all stars in the sky, killing these heavy ministers, their grievances are different from ordinary people, so they use this kind of brakes to execute, hoping to be able to use the anger to deter the resentment of the dead.
According to legend, when Han Xin and Yuan Chonghuan died, there was red rain in the sky, perhaps this is the answer to Ou Yezi's puzzled confusion, "ask the sky" shot, there will be a wrongful fall of the country.
Zhang Guozhong weighed this Qiantian at this moment, the size is shorter than "dragon scales" and "chopping iron", and the weight is also light, in order to test whether this legendary ancient blade is a real thing, Zhang Guozhong opened his eyes, and saw a strong blue-black qi hovering in his hand, and the dragon scale chopping iron immediately paled in comparison.
"People use peach wood swords, you use real guys, I think you are not ordinary..." Seventh Uncle looked at the two with a smile, "And I have invited no less than ten of the most famous masters from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and even Japan, they are helpless, you can even see the flaws..., if the two can really let me move back, this dagger will be used as a meeting gift, but the ugly thing is in front, if I can't move back, the two will return to Zhao!" "Thank you Seventh Uncle," Zhang Guozhong was also not polite, took the sky and pinned it in his waist, the old Liu Tou's eyes were about to pop out, no way, the junior brother did not have any hobbies, the treasure exchanged for his life from Bashan was given to himself without saying a word, and it was not good to stretch out his hand at this time.
"Guozhong, that dragon scale... Isn't it..." Old Liu Tou thought to himself, it was worth it to be able to bring back the guy who looked after his family.
At this point, the chopping iron completed its short-lived mission in the hands of Old Liu Tou and became a permanent memorial.
At this moment, Seventh Uncle sighed, "I didn't expect that this surnamed Zhao would treat me like this!" I don't want to give up my old life, and let you die beautifully! After that, he began to cough violently again.
The seventh uncle is called Liao Qi, according to the generation, but also with the patriot Liao Zhongkai to get involved in a little kinship, the ancestor of the seventh uncle is a land business, and the grandfather began to do steel and rubber business when he was 30 years old, and later got involved in paper and plastics, and when the grandfather was more than 50 years old, he founded the Liao enterprise, after the painstaking operation of the seventh uncle's father's generation, the Liao enterprise passed to the hands of the seventh uncle, and is already the largest rubber trader and steel trader in Southeast Asia, 197, Seventh Uncle was once knighted by the Queen of England along with the ship king Bao Yugang, so he was eligible to buy a black Rolls-Royce.
The surname Zhao in the mouth of the seventh uncle, whose real name is Zhao Kuncheng, grew up in an orphanage, his origin is unknown, he once worked under the seventh uncle, because of his shrewdness and ability, he soon became the person trusted by the seventh uncle.
Five years ago, Liao's enterprise and the French did a big business, claiming to be the largest non-ferrous metal transaction in Southeast Asia at that time, the seventh uncle sent the most trusted Zhao Kuncheng to take full charge of the negotiation, leading other members of the board of directors to negotiate in France, and he personally sat in Hong Kong to raise resources from the company's mines in Africa and the Americas.
But what Seventh Uncle never expected was that this Zhao Kuncheng was uncharacteristically loyal and betrayed the entire Liao enterprise for the benefit fee of 200 million francs, so that Seventh Uncle lost billions of yuan, and suddenly hurt his vitality.
This is not to mention, after the two turned against each other, this Zhao Kuncheng also designed to kill the only son of the seventh uncle, it is said that he used the method of the left side of the door to create a bizarre traffic accident, the police have not found any clues, although it shows that it is Zhao Kuncheng who did it, but there is no evidence.
Because the seventh uncle has been living in seclusion, he did not die like his son.
Later, Zhao Kuncheng opened a company, pulled away many large customers of Liao's enterprise, and worked against the seventh uncle, and this time he paid attention to the ancestral home of the Liao family, and I don't know what crooked ideas there are.
"How can it make sense!" Zhang Guozhong smashed the table with his hand, looking at the old man of the seventh uncle was also quite pitiful, he couldn't help but feel that Zhao Kuncheng was very hateful, but when the old Liu Tou and the seventh uncle looked at him strangely, they found the gaffe.
"I'm sorry, I'm just angry, how can I be like this?" Zhang Guozhong explained.
"Young man, if my son were still alive, he would be as old as you..." Speaking of his son, Seventh Uncle's eyes turned red, "Two gentlemen, my ancestral home has asked you, in fact, there is something that I didn't want to tell you, but now I think it's okay to talk about it." "
Zhang Guozhong was stunned, "Your ancestral home, is there any secret?" "I said, my ancestor of the Liao family is in the land business," the seventh uncle sighed, "The land deed handed down by the ancestor is in that ancestral mansion, the ancestor died too suddenly, and the place where the land deed was hidden did not have time to say, otherwise my grandfather would not have changed his career."
Taipei, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Tokyo, Osaka, the whole of Southeast Asia, there is my Liao family's land, which adds up to be larger than the whole of Hong Kong, and now the Liao family is defeated, I can't fight the surname Zhao at this age, but as long as I can find those land deeds, I Liao Qi can make a comeback!! Saying that, the seventh uncle actually stood up from the sofa with a crutch, and his face was bruised, "In my lifetime, if I don't let that surnamed Zhao be ruined, I won't enter the ancestral grave of the Liao family!" "Seventh Master," after listening to Seventh Uncle's complaint, Old Liu Tou's title was obviously much closer, "You tell us this, it's not just as simple as moving back to the ancestral home, right?" "Hey, Mr. Liu, it's not a secret, when you help me recapture the ancestral home, I hope you can help me find those land deeds, and I believe that the surname Zhao is also looking for it now, I hope we can walk before him."
Seventh Master's gaze was almost pleading.
This Zhang Guozhong is also embarrassed, finding something is not the strength of Maoshan Technique, that land deed is ordinary paper, is there any evil door crooked, how to find ah..." "The two don't have to be embarrassed, we already have an appointment first, you just need to help me retake the ancestral home, I don't force the two of you to do the rest..." The seventh uncle looked helpless.
"What is the origin of this Zhao Kuncheng? How can there be those things that are on the sidelines? Did he do it himself or did he ask someone else to do it? "Zhang Guozhong wondered, theoretically speaking, how can this kind of person who knows how to use spells to harm people be mixed with the business world?" He did it himself..."Seventh Uncle helpless, "I don't know where he learned those side doors, but I hired triad forces in Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan and Malay, hoping to find clues to my son's death, but after checking for a long time, there was no clue at all, if it was really found by someone else, it should be found out anyway..."
"Why is it that if this person is surnamed Zhao, he is so difficult?" Old Liu Tou was depressed for a while, the one who built the treasure cave was called Zhao Sange, and the one who killed the master in the buried tomb was called Zhao Le, and this would pop up another Zhao Kuncheng..."Guozhong, you said that this servant is not a family?" Old Liu Tou joked.
Old Liu Tou joked that Zhang Guozhong didn't take it as a joke, "Senior brother, I see that it is possible, you see, Zhao Sange has already invented the descending technique in the Later Jin Dynasty, at least a spell similar to the descending technique, more than a thousand years earlier than that Luo Youchang, is definitely a first-class master, that Zhao Le will die, and without any external information, it is almost the same as a person who broke the dragon array, it should not be a fuel-saving lamp, this Zhao Kuncheng, since he can kill people with spells, it shows that this person's skills are not small, and his mind is not correct..." Zhang Guozhong paused, "Senior brother, I see that the people who broke the Dragon Array in the Qing Dynasty may also be from their old Zhao family, maybe they are a family!" This set of skills is passed down by their family! You said that... Will the seal be in Zhao Kuncheng's hands? Zhang Guozhong wanted to say the Chuanguoxi, but after thinking about it, he still hid it, and the Seventh Uncle didn't know what they were talking about at all.
"What you said is reasonable..." Old Liu Tou also lit the cigarette, "In this way, Seventh Master, let's go to break the ghost gate array first, after the formation is broken, don't worry about moving back, we would like to meet this Zhao Kuncheng!" "Hmm! Good! Good! "Hearing that there are capable people willing to take the lead for themselves, the seventh uncle is overjoyed, and he has also invited a head lowering division from Japan and Malaysia before, but he is powerless for this Zhao Kuncheng, and now there is finally a rescue.
"If you two have any needs, just tell me! As long as I sell this old bone of mine when Liao Qi comes out, I..." As he spoke, Seventh Uncle actually called Ah Guang over, "Quick, arrange two cars for the two of you!" Zhang Guozhong was also stunned, how can this old man say that the wind is rain..." We can't drive..." Old Liu Tou gave Ah Guang a list, and Ah Guang went down to prepare, in Hong Kong, where Taoism flourishes, these materials are much more convenient to prepare than in the mainland.
As the saying goes, a thin camel is bigger than a horse, although this Liao family is not as good as before, but the strength to get a ghost gate array is still there, basically speaking, breaking the ghost gate array is a work of strength, that is, you have to find a construction team to remove the stone bars that lead to ghosts, the only place with technical content is to accurately find the location of the "ghost pile", and then pull it out and smash it.
Although it has been affirmed that the "ghost taming pile" is in the ancestral home, but such a large house is like finding a needle in a haystack, this "ghost taming pile" may be a large stone pile thick by one person, or it may be a jade-carved chopstick, or even a toothpick carved with jade.
It is basically impossible to find it during the day, so Zhang Guozhong is ready to act at night, at this moment Zhang Guozhong really regrets not bringing the compass handed down by Ma Zhenren, although the new plate bought by Ah Kuang is the best that can be bought in Hong Kong, but for Zhang Guozhong, who is accustomed to using the compass of the master, it is also difficult to use to the extreme.
After midnight, Zhang Guozong's old Liu Tou prepared a carpet search from east to west, house by house, and at this speed, he searched the entire villa for at least half a month.
That night, Zhang Guozhong was full of food and drink, took the compass into a hut, this hut was black hole, as soon as he entered the house, he saw the compass's needle jumping up, "His mother, something is wrong again..." Zhang Guozhong just wanted to pull out the compass to wipe and then put it back, suddenly felt that there was a group of figures in front of him, and it disappeared in a flash.
"Who?" Zhang Guozhong quickly chased into the house... Note (1): Ou Yezi, the sword-forging master of Yue Country, is the most famous and mysterious sword-forging master in ancient China, and there are countless legends about him in China.
According to legend, he cast five of the most famous swords in his life, three long swords, two short swords, legend, three long swords as "Zhanlu", "Chunjun", "Juque", two short swords as "victory over evil" and "fish intestine", these five swords are murderous weapons, especially the "fish intestine sword", which is famous for specializing in stabbing King Wu's staff (previously written as embroidered Qin, and later reminded by friends of Baidu Tieba that it has been corrected, thank you here).
The folk idiom "three long and two short" comes from this allusion, which means that when you encounter any of these three long swords and two short swords, the parties should almost confess, but in fact, Ou Yezi cast countless famous swords in his life, and the more famous "Longyuan", "Tai'a", "Gongbu", "Purple Temple", "Mo Xie", as well as the "Wentian " mentioned in this article and the Yue King Sword unearthed in Jiangling, Hubei in 195, are said to be from the hands of Ou Yezi.
(Because the Tang Dynasty taboo the word "yuan", the "Longyuan" sword was renamed "Longquan" when it was transmitted to the Tang Dynasty, which is the famous Longquan sword in history.) According to legend, when Mo Evil's sword was forged by Ou Yezi's son-in-law, Ou Yezi's daughter Mo Xie jumped into the fire and turned into it, and it is also said that it was forged by Ou Yezi himself, and there are different opinions. )
