It turned out that these four swords did not come at the same time, and the time span was not short. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's really the earliest, probably in the early eighties of the last century, that someone sent it directly to the cultural relics department. The other three, the latest, were also obtained in 2001; In other words, in the past ten years, there has been no gain. Jiang Yingnian introduced, "There is an ancestral thing to sell, and we have taken it." There is a construction digging foundation to find the tomb of the late Ming Dynasty, from which it was obtained; The latest one was sent to the auction to be auctioned, and we got the news that it was bought out in advance. Jiang Yingnian explained.

These origins can be said to be untouched, which shows that at least since the Ming Dynasty, these eight swords have not been together. Therefore, it is basically useless to trace the origin of the most recent person who handled it. Moreover, most of them are not clear.

"Regarding the sword shrine, this is true." Jiang Yingnian continued.

"Oh?" Tang Yi didn't expect that this was not only true, but also that Jiang Yingnian had found a place.

"After the collection office got Zhengang in the early eighties, it immediately launched an investigation, and if it wasn't for this initiative, the other three might not have been able to accept it so smoothly." Jiang Yingnian introduced, "Of course, the legendary sword mound is also the focus of investigation. This sword mound is in a hidden place in Huiji Mountain! But based on what I said earlier, it's clear that although the sword shrine was found, the sword is no longer there. ”

Huiji Mountain, located in Zhejiang Province. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, this was the hinterland and fortress of the Yue Kingdom. Huiji Mountain has an extraordinary significance for the Yue country, and the tribe that created the Yue country is to come out of the Huiji Mountain. Throughout the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, in addition to the military significance to the Yue Kingdom, Huiji Mountain also played the role of a production base economically, and politically and religiously it was also regarded as a holy place.

Goujian, the king of Yue, built the Eight Swords Sword Shrine in Huiji Mountain, which undoubtedly shows that the Eight Swords have the role of supporting his royal spirit.

"Huiji Mountain has always had a variety of cultural heritages, bringing together too many things. But the more this is the case, the more hidden this sword mound is, and it is not easy to find. Wen Jia answered at this time. He was also curious about how he found this sword mound.

Indeed, in addition to the importance of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Yue Kingdom, the cultural inheritance of Huiji Mountain is many. For example, Dayu, sealing Zen, marrying, and burial, are all in Huiji Mountain, and now there is a Dayu Mausoleum. Another example is that there is Yangming Cave Heaven in the mountain, which is the tenth cave heaven of Taoism. For example, the incense burner peak is a sacred place for Buddhism.

Look, how many people have taken a fancy to this Jishan!

"Huiji Mountain was originally an important target for us to explore, but we definitely wanted to avoid those places and attractions that had been opened. I didn't go there in person at the time, so the details weren't very clear. Jiang Yingnian introduced, "At that time, we collected a lot of information, although it was basically a wild history and notes, but based on all of them, we can roughly infer that the sword mound may appear in three places, the most likely of which is Huiji Mountain." ”

At that time, it was the end of the eighties of the last century, and the exploration team that discovered the sword mound consisted of three people. At that time, in order to explore the sword mound, four teams were dispatched, two of which were in Huiji Mountain, and the other two teams were in other places, but the scope was in Zhejiang Province.

According to the various information available, the two teams in the Huiji Mountains roughly delineated the scope of the two hills, and one team explored one of them. The two teams were not the same, with a group of four and a group of three, with a group of four exploring a larger area of the hill and a group of three exploring a smaller hill.

Although the scope of the hill explored by the group of three people is relatively small, it is relatively steep, with dense forests, wild flowers and wild grasses, and basically covers the mountain.

Behind the mountain of this mountain, there is also a mountain col, the exploration team observed, it is not big, it is estimated that it is 100 square meters, but it is piled up with rocks, and there are many thorns.

In other words, whether it is climbing a mountain or entering the col to explore, it is not an easy task.

The three of them discussed it for a while, and felt that within this range, the possibility of the sword mound being in the mountain col was greater than that of being on the mountain, so they made a strong effort against the mountain col first.

The three of them, all armed with tools, picks, shovels, and knives, first carved out a path in the col that connected them to the entrance of the col and the middle of the col, and then took the middle of the col as the origin, and radiated several more paths around it for further exploration.

Naturally, the three of them also had tools that could detect metal, and one of them was also proficient in the art of Feng Shui, but after careful exploration in the mountain col, they did not gain anything.

Even, on the ground of the col, the three of them tried to dig a few places, but they found nothing.

The so-called mountain col is formed by three mountain heads, and the hinterland between the mountain heads is naturally the mountain col. The top of the hill they were responsible for exploring, the highest hill in front of them, and the two hills behind the col, were not very high and inconspicuous.

Just as the three of them were about to leave, suddenly a snake appeared! Although it didn't bite anyone, it scared all three of them, and then they wanted to follow the snake and kill it to prevent future troubles. As a result, the snake burrowed into the foot of the highest hill and disappeared.

The three of them cleaned up the weeds, only to find that there was a "gap" more than two meters long at the foot of the mountain, that is, a piece was missing. It seems that there should have been dirt at the gap, which was flush with the mountain next to it, but now that the soil is basically gone, a gap appears, revealing the mountain wall inside.

On the ground next to the gap, there is also a small hole, presumably a snake cave.

One of them struck the wall inside the gap with a shovel, and the sound was not so solid! In other words, there may be room in it!

The three of them were overjoyed, and first blocked the snake hole, and then began to dig the mountain wall with their tools.

As a result, after digging for a while, a stone wall fell directly to the inside, revealing a hole! It seems that this place is indeed artificially closed.

The entrance to the cave is not large, less than a meter in diameter, and it is very dark inside, like a tunnel. I hit it with a flashlight, but I still can't see clearly. This "tunnel" is not straight, it seems to be curved, so light cannot penetrate it.

The three of them discussed, leaving one person to guard the entrance of the cave, and the two entered the entrance of the cave one after the other. The two people who go in keep their distance, so that they can also have a care. Soon, the three of them were in action.
