Chapter 624: Cornucopia

Jiu Ye said to Zhao Xu that he didn't know if the treasure Shen Wansan got was a "cornucopia". However, according to the records of the ancestors of their five great families, Shen Wansan did get a treasure. As for what, it is unknown.

Jiu Ye told Zhao Xu eloquently: At that time, there were many folk versions of the story of Shen Wansan's "cornucopia". But there are two that have been handed down, and there are two that are closer to reality: one is that Shen Wansan saw someone selling hundreds of frogs and was about to kill these frogs, Shen Wansan couldn't bear to see these frogs killed, so he bought all these frogs with money and put them in the pond so that they could live freely.

Then one day, Shen Wansan passed by the pond and saw a large number of frogs, standing in a circle on top of a clay pot, croaking as if to say, "Shen Wansan, Shen Wansan, please take the clay pot home!" So Shen Wansan took the clay pot home and made washing utensils.

Once when he washed his hands with a clay basin, the ring he wore on his hand fell into the clay pot, and it was not until the next morning that he realized it, so he went to the clay basin to look for the ring; at this time, Shen Wansan suddenly found that the entire clay pot was full of rings.

Shen Wansan was very surprised, so he put gold and silver in the clay pot to try it, and the result was that the whole clay pot was full of gold and silver! It turned out that this clay pot was the so-called cornucopia! Therefore, Shen Wansan's wealth was comparable to that of the country.

Another version is that Lu Deyuan, a wealthy man in Sucheng in the Yuan Dynasty, admired Shen Wansan's intelligence and business credit, and felt that he was already old and had seen through the red dust. If the huge wealth in his hands is not passed on to others, once the situation is turbulent, it will cause disaster. So he gave them all to Shen Wansan, and went to the Kering Pavilion by Chenghu Lake to become a Taoist priest until his death. Shen Wansan got this huge amount of money from Lu Deyuan, which was like a tiger with wings.

There are also versions that Shen Wansan's wife saw a basin floating in the river, and two goldfish were swimming in the basin. Later, when you take this basin home, you can put one grain and you will be able to produce several more grains. Shen Wansan took advantage of this "cornucopia" and became the richest man in the Ming Dynasty.

After the ninth master finished talking to Zhao Xu, he smiled and said, "Of course, these legends are rumors in the market and there is no way to verify them. However, according to our ancestors, the wealth that Shen Wansan left in the underground palace hides a big secret. Whether or not the secret is about a cornucopia is unknown. ”

Zhao Xu already has a net worth of hundreds of millions, but he has no intention of coveting the "cornucopia". However, he was very interested in Shen Wansan's legendary life.

The fact that Shen Wansan is rich and can rival the country has been circulating among the people.

Originally, Zhao Xu didn't want to be interested in things hundreds of years ago. But Shen Wansan's matter is related to his ancestors' affairs. It is not only related to his ancestors, but also to his personal safety, and even his family.

Zhao Xu definitely didn't want his wife Li Qingqing and daughter Xiao Yezi to be in danger. He knows that blind forbearance is not the solution, and he must take the initiative to solve the problem.

After Zhao Xu listened to the ninth master's story, he suddenly thought of the matter of the "holy altar" of the provincial city that the remnant sword Hu A said, and he didn't know if there would be a connection between the two.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xu told Jiu Ye about the discovery of the remnant sword Hu A in the provincial capital. and asked the ninth master what he thought of this matter.

After listening to Zhao Xu's words, the Ninth Master had a very solemn expression, and said to Zhao Xu: "Zhao Xu, according to what you said, if the people of that altar want to kill the descendants of the five great families as their own responsibility, it must be our enemy." However, after so many years, I don't know if they are from the East Factory, or the West Factory, or the Jinyiwei people. ”

"Ninth Master, is there really anyone from the East Factory or the West Factory in this world? Aren't those people eunuchs? Are there any descendants?" Zhao Xu asked the Ninth Master puzzled.

Jiu Ye smiled and said, "Zhao Xu! there are actually many people from the ancient clan in this world. You want to take our five great families as an example, our ancestors were from the Ming Dynasty at that time. By the way, don't you know a doctor named Hua Yi? Her ancestor was Hua Tuo during the Three Kingdoms period, and there was a Master Lu in the provincial capital, who was a skilled craftsman, and his ancestor was even more amazing, he was the ancestor of the craftsman, Lu Ban. In addition, Shaolin and Wudang are all martial arts sects that have been handed down. As for whether the people in the East Factory and the West Factory exist? I can tell you that they exist, but they just exist in this world in another identity. Although these people are eunuchs, they have adopted and nurtured many killers. The mission of these people is to eradicate the descendants of our five great families. So, you have to be careful. ”

Zhao Xu suddenly felt panicked when he heard this. It never occurred to him that his birth was destined to be killed.

After Zhao Xu heard the words of the Ninth Master, he asked the Ninth Master: "Ninth Master, since we know the opponent, why don't our five great families take the initiative to attack?"

"Take the initiative?" the Ninth Master smiled and said, "Although the strength of our five great families has grown. But let's not forget, the strength of the opponent is also growing. What's more, we are in the light, they are in the dark. However, you are saying that this altar is indeed suspicious. ”

"So, I'm going to the provincial capital!" Zhao Xu said.

When the ninth master heard this, he was taken aback and asked, "You are going to the provincial capital?"

"Yes, I'm going to the provincial capital to see this altar for myself. Because, in the altar there was a man named Shura Dao, and when I was in the provincial capital, he assassinated me. Therefore, I need to find out if he has discovered the true identity of my five great families, or if he has a personal hatred for me. ”

"I heard you say that there are three heavenly list masters and four earth list masters at the altar. In addition, there are some people who don't know at all, and if you want to go to the provincial capital to break the altar, it is tantamount to going deep into the tiger's den in Longtan. It's also too dangerous. ”

"Don't worry, Ninth Master! Nongquan's cultivation has broken through to the Heavenly List, and besides, the first person on the Heavenly List, Old Man Kong, will help me, and the knife will help me. These three heavenly list masters alone are enough for each other to eat a pot. Moreover, I have just recruited a master who is ranked eighth on the land list, Remnant Sword Hua. ”

The Ninth Master's eyes lit up when he heard this.

The masters on the "Martial God List!" can be said to be hard to find at a high price. It's not that if you have money, you can recruit the masters on the "Martial God List", and you have to have a certain amount of strength. Some wealthy consortia are only recruiting masters on the "people list", and they are all the way to the wind and lightning. The real masters are recruited by some special agencies.

Zhao Xu was able to recruit the eighth Remnant Sword Hu A in the "Ground List", which was undoubtedly great news for Zhao Xu.

Jiu Ye took Zhao Xu's hand and said softly: "Xiao Xu, the resources around you are really good. We are the five great families, and only you have the hope of bringing our five great families back together. You remember that while your identity is not revealed, you must continue to grow your strength, and the stronger the better. That's what frustrates those factory dogs. Otherwise, with their methods, once they find the target person, they will definitely slaughter me. I've already received the soul chasing dart, and I'm afraid my life won't be long. If I die, Jiutang will be in your hands. ”
