In the village, Leng Yi was warmly entertained, and everyone's eyes were full of admiration and respect when they looked at Leng Yi, which made Leng Yi feel uncomfortable.

"Benefactor, your great kindness, our whole village will remember it in our hearts for the rest of our lives, and thank you again for saving your life. The old man picked up his glass and said with a grateful face.

"Uncle, when you see a fierce beast doing evil, you should get rid of it, and there is nothing to be thankful for. Leng Yi waved his hand and said.

"Benefactor, it's a gesture for you, but it's a life-saving grace for our village, and the grace of saving lives is greater than heaven. The old man said with a firm face.

"Thank you, I received it, everyone drank this glass. Leng Yi no longer shirked, and said briskly.

This night, Leng Yi drank a lot of wine, and the other villagers were very happy, and in the end they were all drunk and drunk.

Early in the morning, Leng Yi pushed open the door, took a breath of fresh air, and saw the old man cooking there.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, I drank a little too much yesterday, and I got up a little late today. "After Leng Yi drank yesterday, he rested directly at the old man's house for the night.

"It's not late, it's just for breakfast. The old man said with a smile.

Breakfast was ordinary, but it tasted good.

"Uncle, I don't know what to call you, and what is the name of this village?" Leng Yi asked while eating.

"I Hu Wen, this village does not have any peculiar name, it is called Hujia Village, almost all the people in our village are surnamed Hu, our ancestors fled to this place with some people in order to escape the war, and finally took root in this place to live, and slowly developed into Hujia Village. Later, Hujia Village slowly got in touch with the outside, and some young people went out to wander. The old man Hu Wen said with a smile.

"Uncle Hu, I want to ask, is there a bronze tripod in your village?" Leng Yi asked tentatively.

"Bronze Dading?" Hu Wen said in deep thought.

"Yes, a bronze tripod, about a meter high, has four feet underneath to support, one of which is somewhat broken. Leng Yi then repeated what Lao Dao had told him.

"Oh, I remember, there is such a bronze tripod, which was originally placed in the Hu family ancestral temple to hold incense, and then the Hu family ancestral temple was rebuilt, because the bronze big tripod was dilapidated, so another incense burner was replaced. Let me think about who took that bronze tripod?" the old man pondered.

"Oh, I remembered, that bronze tripod was taken away by the old man Hu at the entrance of the village. Hu Wen finally remembered.

"Old man Hu at the entrance of the village? Is it the old man who is sitting at the entrance of the village, very thin. Leng Yi asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it's him, when the bronze tripod was not intended to be used, some villagers planned to melt it to make some farm tools, but the old man Hu refused to live or die, almost desperately with us, and finally everyone saw that he was old, no children, alone, very pitiful, and did not care about him, the bronze tripod was taken home by him. Hu Wen said.

Hearing this, Leng Yi's heart couldn't help but tighten, Old Man Hu is so desperate to maintain the bronze tripod, he should know the origin of the bronze tripod, if he wants to get the bronze tripod this time, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome.

"Uncle Hu, does this old man Hu have any origins?" Leng Yi asked tentatively.

"What is the origin, it is the people of our Hu family village, although I am the highest person in the village, everyone respects me very much, but in ancient times, the old man Hu can be said to be a descendant of the Hu family, we have to bow respectfully and greet him when we see him. Hu Wen said with a smile.

"Uncle Hu, how many years has this bronze tripod been in your Hujia Village?" Leng Yi asked.

"How many years has it been? I really don't know, according to genealogical records, our ancestors fled here, and they all carried this bronze tripod, which is probably estimated to be four or five hundred years old. How many years, you still have to ask Old Man Hu, he has a lot of information at home. Hu Wen said.

Leng Yi nodded, he didn't speak, he knew everything he should know, this Hu Wen didn't know much about the bronze tripod, it seemed that he had to find an old man Hu.

Leng Yi hurriedly finished breakfast, and rushed to the old man's house at the entrance of the village, and saw the old man Hu smoking dry tobacco, squinting his eyes, leaning on the corner of the wall and basking in the sun.

"Young man, do. Old man Hu saw Leng Yi coming, and said with a smile.

"Thank you. Leng Yi didn't care and sat on the edge of the wall.

"Young man, thank you so much for saving our whole village this time. Old man Hu said with a grateful face.

"Uncle, the people of your whole village have been grateful countless times. Leng Yi said with a wry smile.

"The grace of saving lives, no matter how many times you say thank you, you should be grateful, young man, if I am not mistaken, you came to me because of that bronze tripod, right?" said the old man Hu.

"Yes. Leng Yi didn't want to hide anything, and readily admitted it.

"Young man, you are honest enough, I think you should know the value of this bronze tripod, and you can be so frank, it can be seen that you are also a fair and honest person. Old man Hu said with some relief.

"Thank you, uncle, for the compliment. Leng Yi said with some embarrassment.

"Do you know the origin of Hujia Village?" asked the old man Hu.

"I've heard a little bit from Uncle Hu Wen. Leng Yi said.

"Those are the history of the past few hundred years, and they don't know it if they go up, in fact, the people of our Hujia Village are not surnamed Hu at all, our surname is Wu. Old man Hu sighed and said.

"Wu?" Leng Yi asked in some surprise.

"Yes, Wu Zetian's martial arts, our ancestors are out of the empress Wu Zetian's martial family, the empress knew that her limit was approaching, so she ordered someone to send this bronze tripod to the martial family, so that the martial family could protect it well, so a branch of the martial arts family was incognito, changed to the surname Hu, and protected this bronze tripod, but unfortunately the rest of the martial arts children were all killed, and only our branch was handed down. ”

"The Hu family has been so spread for hundreds of years, has been protecting the bronze tripod, and then the news of the bronze tripod leaked, attracting many people to covet, so the ancestors of the Hu family fled to this place with the bronze tripod, and finally took root in this place, time passes, many things have been lost, even the bronze tripod thing has disappeared in the history of time, the only one who knows this thing, is only our descendants. Old man Hu said with some sadness.

After listening to Old Man Hu's words, Leng Yi was shocked: "I didn't expect this Hujia Village to have such a tortuous history. ”
