Chapter 636: Ten Thousand Swords Pool

Yuan Zhenshan's expression suddenly became solemn, "That's the legendary existence in our Chinese martial arts, the nine people who are at the top of the world's martial arts, these nine people are the head and the tail, and they are called the Nine Changes of Wind and Cloud." You don't need to know their names for the time being www.biquge.info because they have long since faded out of the world and are no longer in the world, and you don't know if you will have the opportunity to meet them in your life. ”

Ye Tian was suddenly fascinated in his heart, "Then master, compared to their martial arts, how big is the gap?" ”

Yuan Zhenshan hurriedly waved his hand, "It's like the light of the fireflies is better than the bright moon of the heart of heaven, and it can't be compared at all." If I really do it, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in three moves! ”

"What!" Ye Tian was suddenly shocked, his master Yuan Zhenshan's martial arts were already much higher than him, if he did it with his master, he would be defeated within fifty moves, but he didn't expect that the wind and clouds had changed, and his martial arts were so high that even Yuan Zhenshan couldn't resist three moves, what kind of terrible realm had he reached? Is that still human?

Yuan Zhenshan waved his hand, "Don't say it, those fairy-like characters are not comparable to us mortals." What are you going to do with those bandits? ”

Ye Tian came back from the shock at this time, he took out something from his arms, and said with a smile: "That Mingkong monk, I'm really not sure to win him, but I can call for help." ”

Yuan Zhenshan looked at the thing in his hand, and immediately smiled, and said: "Then I will rest assured, with them to help you, it is expected that it will be foolproof." ”

Ye Tian put the thing away again, arched his hand and said, "Master, the disciple still has a lot of things to do right now, and I can't serve your old man by my side, and when I'm done with things, I'll come back to honor you and my wife." ”

Yuan Zhenshan nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Go, good men are ambitious, don't stay here with me, a bad old man, don't worry about us, don't worry about going." ”

So Ye Tian said goodbye to his master and his mother, and took the flight back to Yanjing on the same day, waiting for him will be a strong enemy from Dongying, the Black Prison Sect and the Yixiang Sect behind him.

Because he was absent from school for a day, Ye Tian had to stay and clean up on this day, just finished cleaning, and was about to go home, but saw Wang Zhixing rushing over.

When Ye Tianyi saw him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother Wang, won't you come to call me for a drink again?" ”

Wang Zhi hurriedly shook his head and said, "This time it's not drinking, I'm asking you to go and see the excitement, let's go, I won't see it if it's late." After speaking, he pulled Ye Tian and walked outside.

Ye Tian said confusedly: "What are you looking at?" ”

Wang Zhi said with great interest: "Don't you know? The Wanjian Pond in Tongcheng County, on the outskirts of Beijing, was renovated and the water was drained to clean up the silt at the bottom of the pond. This is the first time in thousands of years that the water in the pond has been drained, and many TV stations have gone to broadcast it live, or is it broadcast live around the world! ”

Ye Tian was stunned, "Isn't it just cleaning up the silt?" What's there to live stream here? ”

Wang Zhi couldn't help frowning and said, "I said, how did you learn ancient Chinese history?" Haven't you heard of the legend of the Ten Thousand Swords Pool? ”

Ye Tian shook his head in confusion, he grew up abroad, and he really didn't have much contact with Chinese culture.

Wang Zhi pulled him into a taxi, and after driving, he slowly told him the legend of Wanjian Pool.

It turned out that in the Warring States Period more than 2,000 years ago, this area of the capital belonged to the Yan State, and the king of the Yan State at that time was a heroic hero, who dominated the world for decades, defeated many princes, and became the overlord of the Warring States.

King Yan has fought all his life, not only is he a military strategist, but also a swordsman with high martial arts, so he has a hobby, that is, to collect the world's famous swords, whenever he defeats a prince, let the enemy give him the famous sword in the country, in exchange for the qualification to survive, or he will destroy the country, in order to survive, all the princes have collected the world's famous swords to the King of Yan, to win his favor, in exchange for their own place.

As a result, King Yan collected tens of thousands of famous swords in his life, all of which were famous swords in the world, and some of them were peerless treasures recorded in historical books.

In the later years of King Yan, when he was seriously ill, he ordered to dig a large pond next to his mausoleum, bury all the famous swords at the bottom of the pool, and accompany him.

Therefore, this large pond is named after it, called the Ten Thousand Swords Pond, and it is said that more than 10,000 famous swords collected by King Yan during his lifetime are buried at the bottom of this pool.

Ye Tian is also a martial arts practitioner, so he is naturally interested in famous swords, and he can't help asking: "You mean, there are really more than 10,000 famous swords at the bottom of this pool?" ”

Wang Zhi nodded, "This is the reason why so many people from TV stations come to broadcast live, people all over the world want to witness this eternal legend with their own eyes and take a look at the more than 10,000 famous swords collected by King Yan." ”

Ye Tian frowned and said, "But why has no one made up of mind about these famous swords for more than two thousand years?" Waiting until today to release the water? ”

Wang Zhi explained that after the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the heroic and invincible Qin Shi Huang also had the idea of the Ten Thousand Swords Pool, and ordered the pool to be drained and dig out the sword of the Yan King. But what he didn't expect was that Qin Bing dug a hole, and the water in the pool flowed for seven days and seven nights, but the water in the pool did not fall at all, and it remained full.

Qin Shi Huang asked the prime minister at that time, the prime minister was a learned and talented university scholar, he replied: "Wanjian Pond is built on the sea eye, the bottom of the pool leads directly to the sea, the pool water can never be drained, if you want to drain the pond water, the only way is to cast a 10,000-pound Zhenhai iron ox, block the sea eye, in order to drain the pond water." ”

Qin Shi Huang then ordered the casting of Zhenhai iron ox, after the iron ox was successfully cast, it was carried to the side of the ten thousand sword pool, and before the soldiers pushed the iron ox into the pool, at this moment the wind and clouds suddenly changed, the sky was overcast, the thunder and lightning were raging, the thunderstorm was combined, and suddenly it poured down, and it did not stop for three days and three nights, and the surrounding counties were all submerged.

At this time, the prime minister said: "It seems that it has angered the gods, and this sea eye can't move!" Please retract your order, if this continues, I am afraid that there will be a great flood. ”

Qin Shi Huang was frightened at this time, ordered the work to be stopped, and erected a stone tablet next to the Ten Thousand Swords Pool, recording this incident and reminding future generations not to fight the idea of the Ten Thousand Swords Pool again. This stele and the iron ox have survived to this day, and they have become two national treasures, which are well preserved.

After listening to these magical legends, Ye Tian's interest became even greater, and he said, "Is there really such a thing? So why do people dare to touch this pool today? ”

Wang Zhi explained: "Because experts have explored with scientific instruments, there is indeed a stream of groundwater under this pool, but I don't know why, the spring of this groundwater is blocked by silt, and the pool water has become extremely turbid. ”

Ye Tian nodded and said, "In this way, it's really worth taking a look." ”

While talking and chatting, the car has come to Tongcheng County, at this time it is getting late, only to see the lights around Wanjian Pond brilliantly, crowded with people, crowded with people watching the excitement.

Originally, Wanjian Pond was a famous tourist attraction, but today it is even more crowded, and the innermost is the staff, and several large water pumps are ready.

Reporters from various media, armed with long guns and short cannons, stood in line around the pool, and the onlookers surrounded the three inner and outer three floors, and the local scenic spot had to invite the police to help maintain order.

Wang Zhi finally squeezed into the crowd, but fortunately, Ye Tian's martial arts were strong, he used his internal strength to shake away the surrounding crowd, and he came to the innermost without difficulty.

I saw that the scale of this Wanjian Pond is not small, almost 100 acres in size, there are various rockeries in the pool, and even there is an artificial island in the center of the pool, and there is a pavilion on the island.

But the water of this pond is extremely turbid, a piece of black, can not see the situation inside, on the east shore of the pool, there is a high platform, on the high platform enshrined the Zhenhai iron ox, even after more than 2,000 years, but in the careful care of the generations of caretakers, this iron ox did not rust.

Next to the Iron Ox stands a three-meter-high stone tablet, which records what happened to Qin Shi Huang back then.

After a while, I saw an elderly staff member, holding a loudspeaker, shouting: "I announce that Wanjian Pool has officially opened the gate to release water!" ”

With an order, several high-power pumps began to work, and the turbid pool water was pumped out through the pumps and discharged into the pre-dug canal and flowed into the distance.

According to the person next to me, although the pool is large, the water does not seem to be deep, and the deepest place is only four or five meters deep, so it is estimated that the pool water will be drained no more than tonight, and the silt can be cleaned up tomorrow morning.

At this time, reporters from various TV stations also began to report one after another, and interviewed those staff members from time to time.

Ye Tian looked at it for a while and said, "It seems that this will not be dried until tomorrow morning, should we wait here all night?" ”

Wang Zhi said: "This is a rare opportunity, do you want to miss it in order to sleep?" ”

Ye Tian smiled bitterly, "But it's not a matter of standing here and waiting all night, I don't have that patience." ”

Wang Zhi smiled and pointed to the distance, "Look, there are merchants who have thought of this a long time ago, in the snack street over there, it is open all night tonight, and there are a few hotels next to it, let's go get a few drinks and dishes, chat while drinking, and soon be able to stay up until dawn." ”

As soon as he talked about drinking, Ye Tian's interest was raised, he nodded, and Wang Zhi squeezed out of the crowd and came to the snack street on the side, there were originally only dozens of stalls here, but for the grand occasion of tonight's live broadcast, dozens of them were temporarily added, a total of more than a hundred stalls, all of which were full of tourists who came to wait all night.

Ye Tian and Wang Zhi walked around for a whole time, but they were all full, and there were still a lot of people standing in line on the street, and it would take several hours to wait for a seat.

Wang Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "This is a tourist attraction, let's go to the neighborhood to find out if there are any other stalls." ”

So the two walked towards the remote alley with few people, this scenic spot is not small, the two walked for more than half an hour, and then they stayed away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd, but the surroundings are getting darker and darker, there are no lights, where are there any night market stalls.

Just when the two were disappointed, suddenly a faint light appeared in a quiet alley ahead, and it seemed that there was still a slow smoke rising, igniting their hope.
