Chapter 164: Zhou Yi

"At that time, carving was equivalent to carpentry, not teaching to earn more, and not into the stream, my grandfather if he didn't really love the carving industry, I'm afraid he wouldn't have made such a big determination to do carving, but this craft, that is, the ancient carving in your mouth, finally failed to pass down, I didn't learn, my father didn't learn, because compared to my grandfather we are too mediocre, I always thought that in addition to the person who wrote this book and my grandfather, there will be no second person in the world who can practice this carving, until then I see you today I believe that there are people outside the original person, my grandfather did not reach your current state when he was fifty years old, far from itAs far as I know, your master Chang Tai is not an ancient carving technique, why hasn't he practiced it?"

Zhou Lao suddenly thought of something very puzzled, so he asked.

Hearing this, Lin Yue explained: "The "Carved Scripture" was lost in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, but the real loss of ancient carving was in the Five Dynasties period, since then no one knows the ancient carving, my ancestors and my master have practiced, but in the end they all ended in failure, so it turned to the modern carving, I have the current achievement because of the chance situation. ”

"It's been lost a long time ago?

Zhou Lao looked Lin Yue up and down incredulously, and then sighed and said, "I finally know why Chang Tai wants to rob the apprentice with the Jade King He Changhe, if there is an apprentice like you, I will also rob it!"

This sentence undoubtedly expressed his admiration for Lin Yue's qualifications, but he was very aware of the difficulty of practicing this "Carved Scripture", even a simplified version that his grandfather experienced was not something that ordinary people could learn.

At this time, a question came to Lin Yue's heart, if what Zhou Lao said was true, then the one he dug up the day before yesterday should be the one that Zhou Lao's grandfather returned at the beginning!

That's not right!

Why does that one have Zhou Lao's grandfather's annotations? And the one in front of me not? If you go back, it is impossible to add your own understanding to the front of other people's books?

What's going on here?

Lin Yue then asked the doubts in his heart.

Hearing this, Zhou Lao grabbed Lin Yue's arm and asked in horror: "You said that you just found the second half of the book two days ago, as well as my grandfather's handwritten letter??? where did you find ???it? Where did you find it?"

Fortunately, Zhou Lao caught Lin Yue's cheating, if he grabbed his right arm, he would have pain for a long time, but his left arm was still very painful by Zhou Lao.

"I found it under the ruins not far from the street!"

"Across the street?"

Hearing Lin Yue's words, Zhou Lao's whole body shook suddenly, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he subconsciously let go of Lin Yue's hand, and then, Zhou Lao said as if he was crazy: "Take me to see that place!"

Seeing Zhou Lao's reaction, Lin Yue hurriedly took Zhou Lao to the ruins.

When the two came to the ruins, Zhou Lao looked at the flying vinegar in front of him, and a trace of resentment and murder suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then it turned into a deep helplessness and sigh. Finally, he sighed and stared at the ruins in front of him for a long time.

After about twenty minutes, Zhou Lao said with a complicated face: "Let's go." ”

The two quickly returned to Lin Yue's room, and Old Zhou told the dusty past little by little.

It turned out that the engraved scripture that Lin Yue found was the manuscript of Grandpa Zhou, and the one in Mr. Zhou's hand was copied by Mr. Zhou's father, so there was no previous explanation and that letter. The "Carved Scripture" has always been in a lofty position in Zhou Lao's family, and they have basically regarded themselves as the heirs of the "Carved Scripture", and the book has always been enshrined. After the death of Zhou Lao's grandfather, because no one learned ancient carving, the "Carved Scripture" became an offering, but everyone in the Zhou family knew the importance of this book, and everyone respected this book very much. Zhou Lao's father once adopted a child, Zhou Yi, not long after Zhou Lao was born. Zhou Lao and Zhou Yi have a good relationship since childhood, like brothers, Zhou Yi is more talented than Zhou Lao in carving, but still failed to learn the ancient carving skills on the "Carved Scriptures", but Zhou Yi has always been obsessed with the "Carved Scriptures", very eager to learn, but because learning to carve the scriptures will delay the opportunity to learn ordinary carving, so Zhou Lao's father strictly forbade them to study after they learned to carve the scriptures for three years without success. Zhou Yi didn't say it on the surface, but he still had a will not to admit defeat in his heart. After a few years, the "Engraved Scripture" that had been enshrined was suddenly stolen, and they couldn't find it no matter how they looked for it, so Zhou Lao's father was furious, had a serious illness, and left a hidden illness in his body, Zhou Lao and Zhou Yi were both fourteen years old that year.

When Zhou Yi was fifteen years old, he was reprimanded by Zhou Lao's father because he fought with someone and broke the other party's head and bleed, and was reprimanded by Zhou Lao's father. Originally, the people of the Zhou family thought that Zhou Yi was talking angrily, but they didn't expect what the other party said to be true, Zhou Lao's father added the root of the illness last time, and he became seriously ill and died within a few years, and he didn't even see Zhou Lao's son and grandson. Zhou Lao knew that what his father wanted to see most was Zhou Yi, but no matter how he went to see Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi just didn't see him. The two families were separated by a street, and there was no contact since.

Three years ago, Zhou Yi was in a car accident and died in the hospital, during which he never stepped into Zhou's house.

Zhou Lao has never understood why Zhou Yi is so ruthless, more than ten years of nurturing grace can not be broken like this, in Zhou Lao's impression Zhou Yi is the kind of person who loves and hates clearly, and will never do such a thing, that fight Zhou Yi was actually because Zhou Lao was bullied, Zhou Yi happened to bump into it, and then he made a move, this incident has always been Zhou Lao's deep heart, because he felt that the fall out between his father and his brother was completely thought that he was inside, if there was no such thing, his father would not have relapsed from the old disease, and he would not have died so soon, all because of him, so Zhou Lao has always had such a pimple in his heart。

But knowing that Zhou Lao knew everything today, if it wasn't for Lin Yue telling him to find the "Carved Scripture" from the ruins, maybe he wouldn't have understood it, but now he understands it all.

The "Carved Scripture" back then was stolen by Zhou Yi!

If it weren't for this, this half of the "Carved Sutra" would not have been kept intact in his home!

After learning everything, Zhou Lao hated Zhou Yi, if he hadn't stolen the "Carved Scripture" at the beginning, his father would not have been seriously ill, let alone a hidden illness!

No Zhou Yi found the "Engraved Scripture" after leaving the Zhou family, because at that time, the "Engraved Scripture" was enshrined in his family's ancestral ancestral hall, and ordinary people did not know that such a book existed, and who would steal a book? Not only that, but the ancestral shrine was not accessible to ordinary people, unless it was someone from their Zhou family. Zhou Lao's father did not suspect that it was his own family who did it, but there was no evidence, so he had no choice but to give up. Therefore, Zhou Lao absolutely believed that the "Engraved Scripture" was stolen by Zhou Yi, and only he remembered the "Engraved Scripture" at that time.
