Chapter 382: Guard
I hurriedly walked over and slowly picked up the old man. I saw that the old man said with a slightly serious expression: "I am ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors." Then he left two lines of tears.
At this time, because I was closer to the offering table, I looked up inadvertently and looked up, and I was taken aback in an instant, and quickly turned my head to signal An Xiangfei and Mu Xiu, and the two quickly approached to take a look, and their expressions changed greatly.
I saw that the tablets on the upper and lower floors were placed, and the largest one was placed on the top, which was actually "the spiritual seat of Liu Ji, the ancestor of the Liu family"
Look at the wall behind the tablet hanging a portrait of dark yellow clothes covered with dust, and an old man in a red official uniform in the middle, holding a wheel fan, a wisp of goatee white and elegant. Wearing an official hat and eyes with a look on his head, he was sitting on the chair of the Taishi.
And I can see at a glance that this so-called Liu Ji is the legendary Liu Bowen. Because this can also be directly demonstrated from the portrait above. The portrait is an official painting at a glance, painted by a royal painter, and then look at the payment is also the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the period of Zhu Yuanzhang.
The old man bowed a few times and then flicked the dust on the table, and the three of us withdrew our eyes, and the old man glanced at it, then sighed and slowly walked out of the house. The three of us hurriedly followed, and when we got out of the back room, the old man still sat down slowly on the Taishi chair, and then continued to smoke the dry tobacco pouch. And I don't know if it's because I looked at the portrait just now or because of the conditioned reflex of antique players, I can't help but notice that the old man is sitting on the Taishi chair, I didn't pay attention to it just now, and now I take a closer look at the secret road in my heart and surprise, this Taishi chair, the back is carved and hollowed, the technique is fine, the knife work is good, the overall material of this Taishi chair should be made of good red sandalwood, and according to the model, it is obviously the furniture style of the Ming Dynasty, the most important thing is that it is still intact after thousands of years and shiny and smooth, The lowest in the auction market is 10 million.
I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, I thought that this old man was living a more frugal life and it was more difficult, how could I have thought that this old man was an invisible rich man, you must know that the portrait incense burner and this chair that I saw just now are worth tens of millions of dollars on the market. If the three pieces are combined, they are worth hundreds of millions of yuan. It's just that the old man may not know the value or have a special reason not to make a move.
"Uncle, what is your relationship with this Liu Ji?" Makushu asked cautiously tentatively.
The old man raised his head slightly, spit out the last puff of sweat cigarettes, took the dry tobacco pouch roll in his hand, and then slowly spoke: "The old man is 86 years old this year, his name is Liu Qianyi, and he is Liu Ji, that is, the seventeenth generation descendant of Liu Bowen. The old man's expression was slightly high-pitched when he said this, and the three of us were shocked when he heard the old man say this, but he didn't expect that this ordinary old man was actually the descendant of the legendary god Liu Bowen.
I saw that the old man paused again, and then said: "Ancestor Liu Ji rebelled with Ming Taizu, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, until he helped Zhu Yuanzhang take charge of military affairs and win the world. Therefore, he was deeply appreciated and reused by Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang called the ancestor many times: "My son Fang Ye." There is also a folk saying that "Zhuge Liang is divided into three parts of the world, and Liu Bowen is the unification of the country; Zhuge Liang, the former military division of the DPRK, and Liu Bowen, the military division of the later dynasty". He is known for his ingenuity and strategy.
Although the achievements are all over the world, but in his later years, coupled with Zhu Yuanzhang's violent nature, coupled with his suspicions, and when the court is a traitorous minister, the ancestors have completed the mission of heaven and retreated bravely, so they resigned and returned to their hometowns with illness, although they still received the emperor's favor later, and Hongwu for three years, Taizu awarded Liu Ji as a bachelor of Hongwen Hall, in November, he was awarded the meritorious hero, and Liu Ji was awarded the founding Yiyun Shou Zhengwen Chen, Zishan Doctor, Shanghu Army, Feng Chengyi Bo, and 240 stones. In the second year, he returned to his hometown.
However, the ancestor was already seriously ill and knew that the destiny of heaven had arrived, so he handed over a book of heaven to his descendants and presented it to Taizu. Then he died. But before his death, the ancestor had calculated that after his death, there must be a traitor to bewitch the ancestor, which was not good for himself, and then secretly confessed to the descendants to bury him here, and the descendants took the body of the ancestor to secretly come here and found that a nine-story heavenly palace cave had been repaired here, and could not help but feel surprised, so according to the wishes of the ancestors to be buried here, that night it was found that the mountain where the ancestors were buried was filled with purple clouds and mist, auspicious clouds, and the descendants said that the ancestors had already flown into the sky and become immortals.
In his hometown, he buried the ancestors' tombs, and later there were traitors who excavated and destroyed the tombs of the ancestors. Since then, the second ancestors have received a royal snub, so the family has secretly moved to this generation to protect the tombs of the ancestors. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he took a long breath, and then looked out of the door and was speechless, and the three of us couldn't help but sigh after listening to the old man. History is always legendary. I was amazed by Liu Bowen's ingenuity, and I was also amazed by the Liu family's thousands of years of guarding the tombs of their ancestors in the deep mountains for thousands of years.
"Old man, why can't you go to this back mountain, we are not here to destroy the tomb of your ancestors." I suddenly told a lie without blushing and without breathing, and suddenly wanted to give myself a mouthful.
I saw the old man wave his hand slightly, sighed and said, "Girl, I won't tell you to this day." The ancestors have ascended, and this tomb is only empty of the remains of the ancestors, but for some reason, in recent years, the tomb that was originally a blessed side has become a dangerous place after a woman's unintentional collision a few years ago. The village used to be prosperous, but now it is deserted. I don't know why, as long as the people who live in this village, they will either die or go crazy in less than a few years, and I don't know why my old man alone is safe, probably because of the blessing of the ancestors. As he spoke, the old man stood up and bowed reverently in the direction of the mountain behind.
After listening to the old man's story, the three of us were shocked and figured out the truth of some things. Looking at the old man in front of him who was half-immersed in the loess, the three of us didn't have a taste in our hearts. At that moment, at my suggestion, An Xiangfei and Mu Xiu helped the old man quickly repair the house, and I quickly helped the old man clean the house. Then I made a meal for the old man, and when I went to the old man's kitchen, I saw that there was only a pot of turbid porridge in the pot, and there was only a bowl of wild vegetables to eat. After making a meal of nutritious food for the old man, he left all the canned biscuits in our bag to the old man, and then forcibly stuffed a large handful of RMB to the old man.
