Chapter 900: The Real Tang Knife

PS: Ask for a monthly pass to break ten, please support me, thank you.

"You're in luck, it's really good."

After listening to Wang Guan's narration, Zhou Lao was also a little surprised: "But is there really nothing in the underground palace?" ”

"It's not that there is nothing to say, at least there is a mural."

At the same time, Yu Feibai came out with wine, and said casually: "A picture of King Wu's war, and then we gave a lot of speculations about this picture, and finally felt that it should be related to Wu Zetian." ”

"How did King Wu have anything to do with Wu Zetian?" Chang Lao frowned and said: "There is a difference of seven or eight dynasties, one or two thousand years, and it can't be together." ”

"Maybe it's a metaphor."

Zhou Lao groaned, he was more sensitive to calligraphy and painting, and said thoughtfully: "Cutting ...... It's a week. ”

"Old Zhou is mighty."

At the right time, Yu Feibai smiled and said, "Just guess it." ”

"Less sycophants."

Zhou Lao scolded with a smile, and then muttered: "In this way, your guess is correct, the underground palace may really be the place where Li Tang's magnates secretly hid their armor soldiers at that time. ”

"Eight or nine is not far from ten." Yu Feibai said regretfully: "It's a pity that there is not enough evidence. ”

"Even if there is evidence?" Chang Lao shook his head and said: "This kind of dark thing, just let him be annihilated in the long river of history, there is no need to study deeply." ”

"Well, Brother Chang is right." Qian Lao agreed: "History itself is a foolish account, as long as the general direction is correct." As for the details, they are negligible. ”

"There may be evidence."

At this time, Yu Feibai smiled and said: "But you have to ask Wang Guan, after leaving the underground palace, Hou Lao quietly asked him to go out to the secret meeting alone, and he didn't know what to do with him." When I asked him, he didn't say anything, I thought it must be Hou Laozang's secret. ”

"Really?" Chang Lao looked at Wang Guan and asked, "Is there really such a thing?" ”

"I can't really say that." Wang Guan nodded. He shook his head again, intending to keep his mouth shut.

"Is there anything you can't say...... Chang Lao was quite dissatisfied: "Say half of it, keep half of it, it's really not like words." Forget it, I won't ask you. Ling Xi, you call Guangping directly to inquire about this. ”

"Okay, go back and ask him again, now let's eat first." Qian Lao smiled and greeted: "Come, taste the thirty-year-old Shaoxing Huadiao wine......"

When Chang Lao heard this, he didn't care about Wang Guan anymore. He picked up the wine jar and took a deep breath, with an intoxicated expression: "That's right, the wine at noon is enough, but it lacks heritage, or the aging is more flavorful, and the aftertaste is long." ”

As long as there is good wine, Chang Lao is not a curious person, so he puts the previous things behind him in a blink of an eye and concentrates on tasting fine wine. I didn't leave until the end of dinner with two or three minutes of drunkenness. It can also be seen from this that Chang Lao is still relatively restrained, and he does not drink openly, resulting in drunkenness.

Chang Lao is gone. Zhou Lao also left with his hind feet.

At this time, Wang Guan and the others returned to the living room, and Qian Lao said, "Wang Guan, you said you want to keep it secret." It's not just as simple as agreeing to Brother Hou, who needs to keep his mouth shut, right? ”

"What, there's still shady?" Yu Feibai said with interest, and he was not worried that Wang Guan would hide the facts.

"You've thought too much. Where is there so much shady in the world? ”

Wang Guan said angrily: "It's just that Elder Hou said that it can't be publicized......"

"Zhang Yang?"

Yu Feibai said shrewdly: "What is the publicity? ”

"It's not a big deal." Wang Guan explained: "Actually, you guessed correctly, Hou Lao did find something in the underground palace, that is, he found something under the stone slab of the mural, among which there was a golden treasure box. There is a blood book hidden in the box, which is the covenant of Li Tang's magnates back then......"

"As expected, I knew it would be like this." Yu Feibai was a little excited: "Look, I'll just say it, the underground palace must have been established to oppose Wu Zetian." ”

"What can I do?" Wang Guan spread his hands and said: "Listen to what Elder Hou means, the blood book covenant will be handed over, and I don't know when it will be announced to the world." Or, as Chang Lao said, just let it quietly annihilate. ”

"That's right." Yu Feibai was a little disappointed, and then snorted: "You too, even if you can't come back with the blood book, you can take a photo with your mobile phone or something for me to watch." ”

"It's just a piece of cloth, and it's not a work of art, so what's the appreciation?" Wang Guan was a little ridiculous.

"For me, every precious cultural relic is a priceless art treasure, and it is extremely valuable for viewing." Yu Feibai said solemnly, which also made Wang Guan very contemptuous. In front of Qian Lao, he copied his words in a grand manner, and his cheekiness was not thick to a certain extent, and he really couldn't do this kind of thing.

"Okay, I won't talk to you."

At the right time, Yu Feibai asked: "What is the covenant like, and how many people are involved?" ”

"I can't remember the specific text of the covenant, anyway, the general content is to condemn Wu Zetian's perverse actions and call everyone together to set things right. After that, there were a bunch of signatures, including ......" Wang Guan thought back, and said a few more names, which belonged to characters that could be seen in history books, but it made Yu Feibai sigh.

"And then."

Then Yu Feibai asked again.

"What, then?" Wang Guan looked puzzled.

"Less garlic." Yu Feibai scoffed: "When you went to Luoyang, you brought a small backpack, but when you came back, you had an extra suitcase, deducting the gifts you bought for everyone, there must be something else." ”

I have to say that Yu Feibai's observation is still good, there are some things that Wang Guan doesn't want to say, so he doesn't ask, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know.

"You're amazing, with sharp eyes." Wang Guan shook his head and smiled, anyway, he had already said it, and he didn't plan to hide it.

"Of course ......"

Yu Feibai was originally quite proud, but after reacting, he immediately glared and said: "You are the thief, less damage to people, hurry up, go and take out the things that Hou Lao gave you." ”

"It's not to give it to me, but to borrow it from me to play with it for a while, and I'll take it back later." Wang Guan corrected, and then returned to the room to take the things to the hall, and was about to hand them over to Qian Lao to watch, but was intercepted by Yu Feibai.

"What is this?"

At this time, Yu Feibai looked down at the thing in his hand, and saw that it was a pitch-black oval and long, similar to a stick. But he weighed it, and felt that things were more pressing. It's not quite like a root. Besides, the texture of the hand is not like wood, it feels like leather.

"Leather?"

For a moment, Yu Feibai was thoughtful, then carefully observed the position of the handle end, and suddenly said in surprise: "This is a sword?" ”

While speaking, Yu Feibai really found a gap in the unpretentious handle, and then couldn't wait to pull out his hand. For a moment, only a sonorous sound was heard, and a faint streamer suddenly flashed.

"Ah, not a sword!"

Took a look. Yu Feibai was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of something, his face unconsciously showed a look of surprise and disbelief, and even the palm holding the weapon trembled slightly, and the excitement in his heart was difficult to suppress for a while.

"Who said it wasn't a sword, at least in the Tang Dynasty, it was a sword!"

Wang Guan stood by and looked at it, although it was not the first time he had seen this thing. But at this moment, his eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of amazement.

"A sword from the Tang Dynasty?"

After Yu Feibai was stunned for a moment, he reacted instantly, and he was even more sure of his judgment. Then he waved his hand. The streamer in his hand also flashed, and a dark luster brushed silently in the air, revealing its edge.

"What kind of sword, it's clearly a Tang sword!"

At this time. Looking at the inward-folded blade, Yu Feibai's mood was as gorgeous as a blooming flower, and he could no longer hide his excitement. Carefully looking at the weapon in his hand, his face gradually showed a little intoxication.

As mentioned before, the most powerful periods of military power in ancient China were clearly the violent Qin, the strong Han, the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the Mengyuan Dynasty. But everyone's favorite is probably Hantang. Even though there has been an interval of 2,000 years, more than 1,500 years, until now, the pride of the Han and Tang dynasties has been circulating in everyone's hearts, endlessly, and even gradually deified.

The main reason is that these two dynasties are too desirable, whether it is cultural governance and martial arts, they are the first in the world. Not to mention the rule of culture, the most important thing is the military force. Sweeping the world may be an exaggeration, after all, it has not been tried, and it is difficult to make a conclusion. But sweeping away Southeast Asia is the easiest and has already been done.

And everyone must also know that in ancient times, it was a cold weapon war, and if you want to make great achievements, in addition to the commander's bravery and strategy, the quality of equipment is also something that cannot be ignored. War horse cavalry is a mobile force, Mingguang armor is a defensive ability, then the Tang knife is a lethal weapon.

According to historical records, there are four knives in the Tang Dynasty, one is called the Yi knife, the second is the barrier knife, the third is the horizontal knife, and the fourth is the Mo knife. It doesn't matter what the shape is, but the quality is very good. It has reached extremely high achievements both technically and artistically, and can be said to be the pinnacle of Chinese sword history.

According to the research of experts and scholars, the Tang knife originated from the ring head knife of the Han Dynasty, but the casting process has been continuously improved and improved, using steel technology, so that the Tang knife is the outside and soft on the inside, and has a strong toughness, which makes the Tang knife have a qualitative leap over the Han knife, and can split any armor and equipment.

Since the blade of the Tang knife is very straight, if it is collected in the sheath, it is no different from the sword. Therefore, there was the Tang generation, which only had a sword but no sword, and the sword that was called at that time was actually a Tang knife. So just now Wang Guancai said that this is a knife and a sword.

In fact, since the Tang Dynasty, the casting technology of the Tang knife was introduced to Japan, and it is said that the craftsmanship is not up to par, and the straight Tang knife cannot be cast, so the modern Japanese samurai sword with a meniscus arc was formed. However, the custom of using a sword as a sword has been preserved, and in Japan anyway, the sword and the sword are often confused, which is a legacy of the Tang Dynasty.

However, it is sad and lamentable, the casting process of Tang knives has blossomed all over Japan, and after thousands of years of development, it has become one of the three famous knives in the world.

However, after the Tang Dynasty, especially after the rebellion of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the production process was gradually lost. Even if the modern weapon foundry recast a Tang knife according to the ancient method, everyone feels that the thing only has its shape, and it lacks the majesty and domineering of the Tang Dynasty at all, and lacks an indescribable charm.

"This is the real Tang Dao!"

At this time, Yu Feibai slowly came to his senses, and the straight knife in his hand suddenly slashed...... (To be continued......)
