Chapter 223: An Unexpected Treasure
"Xiaoshuo, what's wrong with you?"
Because Li Shuo's face suddenly turned pale, this made Liu Zaishi a little worried.
Taking a deep breath, Li Shuoqiang endured his grief and said, "Brother-in-law, Grandma Han Huizi is no longer good, I am about to pick up Suoxuan and go to the hospital to see Grandma Han Huizi for the last time." ”
"Ahh Li Shuo's words surprised everyone present.
"I'll go with you!" Liu Zaishi stood up.
However, Li Shuo waved his hand and said, "You still have a notice, I can go, it's not good to go to too many people." ”
Nodding, Liu Zaishi followed behind Li Shuo and said, "Then you should be careful yourself, and be careful when driving." ”
"It's... Brother-in-law. ”
After speaking, Li Shuo walked out of the conference room, and then rushed to Kim So-hyun's school as soon as possible, at this time Kim So-hyun still didn't know anything, because Han Huizi's illness had always been secretly hidden from her, and the old man didn't want his granddaughter to know that he was sick.
So when Lee Seok stormed Kim So-hyun's class, Kim So-hyun was surprised.
"Uncle... Why are you here?"
Because of Li Shuo's appearance, the students in Kim So-hyun's class also made screams, and Li Shuo didn't care about anything at this time, but hurriedly came to the teacher's side, and whispered to her about the situation at this time, and after getting the teacher's consent, Li Shuo pulled Kim So-hyun out of the school.
"Uncle... What the hell is going on?"
Kim So-hyun, who got into the car, was still stupid and didn't know anything, he didn't know what was going on now, looking at Kim So-hyun's ignorant appearance, I don't know why, Li Shuo felt even more distressed.
While driving the car, Li Shuo said cautiously: "Suoxuan, you have to remember that no matter what happens, behind you, the uncle will stand there, and the uncle is your solid backing, and he will always protect you." ”
Looking at Li Shuo, Kim So-hyun smiled and said, "I know... Uncle is the best for me, except for my grandmother, in this world, uncle is my only relative.
And I also know that my uncle and grandmother will never leave me. ”
Li Shuo was distressed when he said this, because Kim So-hyun was left with only her grandmother as a blood relative in this world, and it could be said that she had nothing, but the reality was always cruel, and even her last blood relatives had to be taken away.
After a slight pause, Li Shuo said slowly: "Suoxuan, you must know that there will be differences in this world, no matter how hard you try, no one can do it without distinction."
You too, so do me, so does grandma, and grandma is old, she will leave us sooner. ”
"Uncle... What do you mean by that, is something happening to my grandmother? Kim So-hyun had a slightly worried expression.
At this time, Li Shuo knew that it was no longer possible not to say it, because the little guy had already guessed it.
Nodding, Li Shuo said cautiously: "That's right... Soxuan, grandma may be leaving us, now I will take you to see grandma for the last time, but don't worry, Suoxuan, you will live with your uncle in the future, and your uncle will treat you the same as grandma. ”
However, before Li Shuo finished speaking, he saw Kim So-hyun's tears falling, looking at Li Shuo, Kim So-hyun looked at Li Shuo with a pitiful expression that was almost pleading: "Why... Uncle, why is this happening, why .. ?”
That crying look, Li Shuo really didn't know what to say.
About 20 minutes later, Lee Seok took Kim So-hyun to Seoul Hospital, where he saw Han Hye-ja's grandmother for the last time in a single room.
"Grandma.... Seeing Kim So-hyun crying and going to the bedside of Han Huizi's grandmother, Li Shuo also followed, at this time Han Huizi's grandmother was no longer good, but when the old man saw his granddaughter again, tears still oozed from his eyes, this is her most uneasy little granddaughter, although death is the way of heaven, but people always have nostalgia.
"Woo... Woo.... Grandma Han Huizi, who was speechless, desperately used her life to make the last sound, her two wrinkled hands, desperately trying to wipe away the tears on her granddaughter's face, but no matter how hard she tried, she could no longer lift her hands.
"Grandma... Don't go, don't go, what should I do if you're leaving?" Kim So-hyun pleaded sadly, she wanted to use her pleading to make her grandmother not go, but it was impossible.
"Listen... Big... Uncle... Target... Speech. After exhausting her last strength, after Grandma Han Huizi finished the above words, she finally smoked.
"Grandma.... After seeing a flat line appear on the life monitor and make a 'drip' sound, Kim So-hyun shouted and fainted.
Fortunately, Li Shuo hugged the other party, otherwise he would definitely fall to the ground.
Holding Kim So-hyun and looking at Grandma Han Huizi who had closed her eyes, Li Shuo said slightly: "Please rest assured, grandma, I will use my life to protect her in the future." After speaking, he also hugged Kim Sohyun again.
............................
Hanseong's funerals are generally held in hospitals, so hospitals have funeral areas. There is an auditorium, the family is waiting next to it, and the people who come to mourn offer chrysanthemums to the deceased, which are placed in this chrysanthemum hall, and then make two big gifts to the deceased, and then give a big gift to the family members, and the family members express their gratitude.
Han Hye-ja's grandmother's funeral was held at the hospital, and Lee Seok and Lee Ji-eun accompanied Kim So-hyun to become family members.
Unlike Huaguo, Hancheng will prepare meals outside the auditorium, and at this time, a helper is needed to help serve the dishes and wash the dishes. The meal is very simple, just a soup and rice, and a few Korean side dishes. Visitors chatting with each other are not taboo about the atmosphere of the scene, and generally talk about the topics they care about, some talk and laugh, which has nothing to do with the sadness in the auditorium. There's no background music either. People can still remember that this was a funeral, with only the red and swollen eyes of the family members, and a series of tableware packaging and condolence texts printed in black and white. Condolences will be sent to mourners.
There were very few people who came to mourn at the funeral of Grandma Han Huizi, after all, the old man had no relatives, and his friends were all old, so there were few who could come, so the funeral ended quickly.
Later, Kim So-hyun moved out of his original residence and officially moved into Li Shuo's house, and then Li Shuo officially adopted Kim So-hyun and made her his sister, but Kim So-hyun still insisted on not calling Lee Seok OPPA!
This matter is something that Li Shuo has never been able to understand, but Li Shuo did not insist on this matter, as long as Kim So-hyun is willing, Li Shuo can let Kim So-hyun call himself any name.
It was only when Kim So-hyun was 14 years old that Li Shuo knew why the little guy kept calling him uncle, which was very surprising!
...........................
"It's been a little better lately. ”
More than a week later, Li Shuo found Lee Ji-eun at home, and then secretly asked Kim So-hyun about his mood during this time.
"Hmm... Much better, what's wrong, is there anything wrong?" Li Zhien looked at Li Shuo and asked.
"It's a bit of a thing, because Soxuan's house is about to expire, we have to hurry up and get out all the things that belong to Soxuan and grandma, if Soxuan is in a good mood, we will go today, if it's not good, it's a day or two late." ”
"Ahh That's it. Li Zhien nodded and said, "Then I'll ask." ”
"Well... However, you have to ask the question. ”
Looking at the cautious Li Shuo, Li Zhien smiled slightly: "OPPA, you are really too careful, don't worry, Suoxuan is very strong, how can he be so fragile." ”
"Really?" Li Shuo frowned and said, "Hey... I don't care, I'll leave this to you anyway. ”
"Good.... Lee Ji-eun readily agreed, and like Lee Ji-eun said, Kim So-hyun was not so fragile, and after Lee Ji-eun and Kim So-hyun finished talking about things, Kim So-hyun immediately said that he could go home and pack up his grandmother's relics.
Looking at Jin Soxuan, who had no problem, Li Shuo was relieved, but Li Shuo didn't know that this cleaning trip also allowed Li Shuo and others to find a baby.
...........................
Kim So-hyun's home... It was an old-fashioned hanok, although it was in Seoul, but because it was dilapidated and old, it was not worth a few dollars, and it was also because it was not very valuable there, so the Kim family made a home there.
After walking into Kim So-hyun's house, Li Shuo could smell a smell of rotten wood, Kim So-hyun's footsteps stopped slightly, looking at the steps at the door, Kim So-hyun said with red eyes: "Uncle, in the past, grandma often sat here and waited for me to come home. ”
The grievance in his voice made Li Shuo touch Jin Soxuan's little head with his hand and said, "Okay... Don't be sad, if you are always like this, grandma will not leave with peace of mind. ”
"yes... Soxuan, don't be sad, let's go in quickly, and leave when we're done packing up. Lee Ji-eun walked up to Kim So-hyun and hugged the little one.
Soon, Kim So-hyun also controlled his sadness and said: "Okay, I'm fine, uncle, sister, let's go in, in fact, there is nothing to pack inside, just a box for grandma, and there is no point in asking for anything else." ”
"Then we'll move the boxes out. Li Shuo said, and then pulled the two younger sisters into the house.
A very small house, only three rooms, not even a living room, of course, this is the house where Kim So-hyun used to live, after meeting Li Shuo, Kim So-hyun and Han Hye-ja's grandmother don't live here, Lee Shuo arranged a better house, here is to put some sundries that Han Hye-hyun's grandmother can't use.
"Uncle... Grandma's box is in the second room, there is a little bit of grandma's dowry things in it, they are all worthless, we just take these back, as for the other things here, they don't want it, there are no good things, tables, chairs and benches, and they don't fit in at home. ”
"Hmm.... Jin Soxuan's words made Li Shuo nod, and then Li Shuo went to move the box, however, he didn't expect the box to be very heavy, Li Shuo couldn't move it alone, there were too many things pressed inside, many of them were worthless things, and then Jin Soxuan saw that Li Shuo couldn't move and proposed, she took out the things that belonged to her grandmother in the box, and didn't want the others.
Li Shuo felt that this was okay, so he took a bag out of the car, and then followed behind Kim So-hyun, watching Kim So-hyun pick up those things.
About ten minutes later, Kim So-hyun picked up the things that belonged to his grandmother, but at this time, Li Shuo found that Li Zhien was gone, which made Li Shuo speechless, where did this girl run again, so he shouted: "Li Zhien, where are you?"
A shout, which made Li Shuo a little surprised, heard Li Zhien suddenly appear in front of Li Shuo and said, "I'm here!" and there was an antique box in his hand.
"Where did you get this box?"
Li Zhien hugged the box and said with a little difficulty: "OPPA, it's so heavy... Come and hold it. ”
Looking at Li Zhien's struggling appearance, Li Shuo also hurriedly took the box in his hand, and Li Shuo was also surprised as soon as he started it, the box was really heavy.
When the box was no longer in his hand, Li Zhien took a breath and said, "I found this box in a secret compartment in the third room. ”
"Dark grid...?" Jin Suoxuan scratched his little head and said, "The third room is my room, why didn't I know there was a dark grid?"
"There really is... I don't know what I touched, but suddenly a dark compartment appeared, and there was this box inside. ”
Li Shuo knew that his sister wouldn't lie, this little guy basically had something to say, so this house must have a secret grid, but it is not yet known whether this dark grid belongs to the Jin family or to whom.
"Soxuan, have you ever seen this box?"
Jin Soxuan looked at the box in Li Shuo's hand and shook his head and said: "I haven't seen it once, this can't be my family's thing, my family is all civilians, there must not be such a beautiful box." ”
After Jin Soxuan finished speaking, Li Shuo put the box on the box, which was a little heavy, and was about to take a closer look at the box.
This box is very weird, there are some pictures carved on the box, and these pictures are very terrifying, a big snake with eight heads, devouring people one bite at a time, and then a young man appeared with eight wine jars, and the eight heads of the big snake began to drink, and then the young man took something to cut off the head, and then after cutting off the tail, he pulled out a sword from it.
"Yikes... What kind of thing is this, it's disgusting. After reading the picture, Li Zhien frowned slightly, although she took this thing out, but the little girl was naturally disgusted with bloody things.
So like Lee Ji-eun, Kim So-hyun, who saw the above pictures, also stayed away from this box a little.
However, Li Shuo's heart beat inexplicably, because he suddenly remembered the name of this eight-headed snake, thinking of this, Li Shuo looked at Li Zhien and said, "Ah... Can you still lock up that dark grid?"
Li Zhien nodded and said, "Yes, it's very simple." ”
"Good.... Li Shuo said: "You immediately go over and lock up the secret grid, and this matter is only known to the three of us, now we will go home immediately, this thing you got may be very valuable, I want to check it on the Internet." ”
"Valuable?" A sentence of value made Li Zhien's little eyes light up, and Li Zhien immediately said, "I know, I'll go right away." ”
The sudden appearance of the value box made Lee Ji-eun feel refreshed, and even Kim So-hyun, who was originally sad, vacated some curiosity, making him feel a lot less sad.
Just a few minutes later, the three of them got into Li Shuo's car, took Han Huizi's grandmother's relics and the box, and confessed here together, if it wasn't deliberate, the three of them should never come back!
...........................
"Goo-doo... Goo....!"
Hanseong in August... The temperature has reached a peak, and the two little girls who returned home from outside ran to the refrigerator as soon as possible, and drank a glass of chilled juice alone.
It's just that unlike the two little girls, Li Shuo rushed to the computer, because according to his analysis, maybe the box contained one of the three Japanese artifacts.
Three artifacts, derived from Japanese myths and legends, Tiancong Cloud Sword (Kusanagi Sword), eight-foot Qiong Hook Jade, Eight Mirrors. It is said that when the Tensun descended, Amaterasu gave the treasure to the Emperor of Japan and inherited it from generation to generation. These three artifacts have been worshipped by the people for 2,000 years as tokens of the Japanese imperial family.
Among them, the eight-foot Qiong Gou Jade (Japanese: 八 feet Qiong Gou Yu / やさかにのまがたま): also known as "Eight Han Qiongqu Jade", a jade pendant in the shape of a sharp pepper, the second of the "three artifacts". The Imperial Palace, which is now believed by many Japanese to be enshrined in Tokyo, is the only one of the three artifacts that may have a physical object, but there is no empirical evidence. All three artifacts are mentioned in the Japanese "Kiki Mythology" in the part of the story related to Amaterasu. The names "Hachiga" and "Hachichi" were originally meant to describe the size of these two artifacts, but later they became the exclusive names of these two artifacts.
Eight mirrors, one of the "three artifacts", the famous work of "Japanese Shoki" "Shinjing Tsu Mirror".
It is believed that the Yatsuya mirror was placed in the Ise Jingu Shrine in Mie Prefecture, Japan. According to Shinto, Yakatsumi represents "integrity." The literal translation of the Eight Mirrors means "Eight-Hand Mirror".
According to Japanese mythology, Amaterasu was very indignant because of the disturbance of Takamagahara by Suzhan Mingzun, so he hid in the Tenwado, and the heavens and the earth fell into darkness.
And the last and most important one is the Tencong Cloud Sword (Kusanagi Sword), and anyone who has seen the Hokage should know that Orochimaru has a Kusanagi Sword in his hand.
In fact, this is not Kishimoto's fiction, many of the spells in the Hokage are based on Japanese mythology, Susanoo, Yachi Orochi, Ten Fist Sword, etc... These are all products of Japanese mythology.
When Li Shuo saw the picture on the box today, the snake with eight heads, Li Shuo thought that it was likely to be the Eight Miscellaneous Snake.
If it was the Eight Miscellaneous Snake, it would be terrifying, because the Heavenly Cong Cloud Sword (Kusanagi Sword) of the three artifacts was extracted from the Eight Miscellaneous Snake's body.
According to the Kojiki, Suzhan Akizun (also known as Susanoo) met Ashiina Shiimi and Tenashi Shiina (Foot Milk and Te Milk in the Nihon Shoki) in Izumo Province, and they had a total of eight children, but seven of them were dedicated to Yagi Orochi. They told Suzhan that the Yagi Orochi was about to eat their last daughter, Kushida Bimai. Suzhan Wuzun promised to remove the Yaqi Snake for the old couple, but on the condition that he would marry him to Qi Daotian Jixu.
He dressed up as a strange rice field and brought eight barrels of wine to different places. Tempted by the aroma of wine, the Yaki Orochi stretched its eight heads into different barrels to drink. Suzhan Wuzun took the opportunity to cut off the head of the Yaqi Orochi one by one with a ten-fist sword, and then cut off its tail. While cutting off the fourth head, he found a sword inside the snake, which he named the "Celestial Cloud Sword" and offered it to Amaterasu.
Later, during the reign of the twelfth Emperor of Japan, Emperor Keiyuki, the Tencong Cloud Sword was obtained by the Japanese Emperor, who was deceived into hunting deer on the grassland when he arrived in Suruga Province. The local warlords burned the grasslands with rockets and killed the horses to prevent him from escaping. Wu Jianzhi used the Tiancong Cloud Sword to cut grass to open the way. In the meantime, he discovered that the Sky Cloud Sword could control the wind direction and was able to survive the disaster, so he named the Sky Cloud Sword "Kusanagi Sword".
But among the three Japanese artifacts, the Yaga Mirror and the Yachiku Qiongyu are supposed to be genuine, while the Kusanagi Sword is most likely a fake. It is recorded that at the end of the Heian period in Japan, the Gen family general Gen Yoshitsune led troops into Kyoto, and the Heike family in Kyoto brought the three artifacts and the young Emperor Andertoku fled to the sea, and later Gen Yoshitsune and the Heike fought a decisive battle with the Taira family, the Heike family was defeated, and the wife of Taira Kiyomori (two nuns in front of the Emperor), that is, the grandmother of Emperor Andertoku committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea with the three artifacts, and the source Yoshitsune sent people to salvage the three artifacts, and finally only got the divine mirror and the divine seal (eight mirrors and eight feet Qiong Hook Jade) The whereabouts of the divine sword Kusanagi sword are unknown. Therefore, the Kusanagi sword enshrined in Atsuta Jingu in Japan is supposed to be a fake.
If Japan is a fake, then whether the contents of this box are genuine, thinking of this, Li Shuo is a little impatient.
..........................
"OPPA, did you find it? What could be in the box, so heavy?"
"Yes, uncle, I want to know. ”
Looking at Lee Ji-eun and Kim So-hyun, who had already finished drinking the juice and cooled it off, Li Shuo couldn't hide his excited smile and said, "Seriously, I can't guarantee whether the things in this are real or fake, because if it's true, it will be too shocking." ”
"Don't sell it, hurry up and tell what's in there. Li Zhien became a little impatient.
Seeing that his sister was anxious, Li Shuo didn't need to explain anything, anyway, if he was wrong, he was wrong, and he was not archaeological, so it didn't matter if he was wrong.
Therefore, Li Shuo slowly walked to the side of the box, untied the hidden buckle on it, and said excitedly: "If my guess is correct, it is the Japanese three-artifact Kusanagi Sword." ”
After speaking, Li Shuo opened the box violently, and then Li Zhien and Kim Sohyun immediately couldn't wait to stretch their little heads over, but when the box was opened, to everyone's disappointment, Li Zhien said speechlessly: "This is the three artifacts, don't be kidding, isn't this just an iron rod?"
"yes... There are still a lot of rusty iron rods. Kim So-hyun agreed.
Li Shuo was also stunned, because what he saw was also an iron rod with a lot of black rust.
"How so?"
Feeling the slightly teasing expressions of his sisters, Li Shuo was a little embarrassed to step down, and he was depressed: his sister's, obviously the box felt very valuable, and the painting on it was also a myth consistent with the Kusanagi sword, how could it be that there was a stick in it instead of a sword.
It's just that although Li Shuo was depressed in his heart, he couldn't explain it, because he also guessed, looking at Li Zhien, who had left the area around the box, but chose to watch TV, and Kim Soxuan, who went to sort out his grandmother's relics, Li Shuo couldn't tell the melancholy in his heart.
For the first time, Li Shuo's brother's prestige was ridiculed, which made Li Shuo instantly slander the three artifacts of Little Japan, it was just something that made himself ugly.
With a hint of unhappiness, Li Shuo found a towel, took the iron rod in the box to the kitchen, and prepared to knock it with other iron things to see what it was.
It's just that Li Shuo doesn't know if he knocks, and he is shocked when he knocks!
