Chapter 63: The First Grandfather
"Li Ling, your surname is Li ......" Liao Shan muttered for a while, then turned to Li Ling, "Li Cangshan, who are you?" β
Li Ling's heart jumped, staring at this weird old man tightly, I'll strangle it! It's been almost a hundred years since my great-grandfather died!
This old man asked about my great-grandfather!!
Li Ling's great-grandfather, Li Cangshan, died in the United States in 1900 at the age of 60.
Counting from Li Cangshan Mountain, the descendants of the Li family for more than 1,000 years have never lived past the age of sixty. Therefore, when Li Cangshan was alive, he set an iron discipline in 1875: from the grandchildren, the descendants of the Li family must no longer be carpenters.
Of course, Li Ling now knows that the real core of it is: the descendants of the Li family can no longer touch Lu Banshu.
According to habitual thinking, if it weren't for people who lived in the same era and knew each other, would they ask him as soon as they opened their mouths?
So, does the old man in front of him live in the same era as his great-grandfather?
You know, it's 1998! Is this old man really an old monster?!
"It's my great-grandfather." When Li Ling spoke, he faced the south, his face was solemn, and his body bowed slightly.
"Hmm." Liao Shan seemed to feel Li Ling's respect, and nodded slightly, this kid misses his ancestors! said at the moment: "So, Li Jiyong is your grandfather, right?" β
"Yes, my grandfather died in 1982." Li Ling also faced south and bowed.
"Oh, then your grandfather is a long life!" Liao Shan nodded and said, "Your Li family ancestors pushed up from your great-grandfather, no one can live past the age of sixty, and your great-grandfather only lived to be sixty-two years old."
"And your grandfather has not touched that door, this longevity is really high, I calculate, 1982...... Your grandfather lived eighty, right? This is the longest-lived descendant of your Li family in a thousand years! β
Li Ling looked at this Liao Shan, his heart fluctuated, and his expression was much more respectful.
Obviously, Liao Shanye knows his Li family very well, and it seems that he knows more than he does!
"My grandfather was 81 years old when he died." Li Ling nodded and said, "Master Liao, how did you know about our family...... Master Liao, dare to ask you what your longevity is? β
"Xiao Lizi, I came to the United States with your great-grandfather, you can do the math." Liao Shan laughed, picked up the jade pot and took a big sip.
"What?!" Li Ling really suspected that he had heard it wrong, and even suspected that he was dreaming!
He shook his head, and it took him a long time to count the time since his great-grandfather came to the United States.
Great-grandfather came to the United States in 1865 when he was 26 years old to pan for gold, and if this Liao Shan also came to the United States in 1865, then even if he was not yet 20 years old when he came to the United States, this year is 1998, he is at least 150 years old now!!
Li Ling rubbed his eyes, pinched his arm again, confirmed that he was not dreaming, and then looked at Rena, who was also a little dazed.
"Master Liao, you're only afraid that you're no less than 150 years old, right? Have you become an immortal?! After a long time, Li Ling blurted out.
"Hahaha, become an immortal? Since the Three Kingdoms and the Two Jins, no one has been able to soar in the daylight! Liao Shan shook his head for a while, "Okay, let's stop talking about these things, let's talk about why I'm waiting for you." β
I heard Rena chirp: "Sam, I listened to the conversation between the two of you, and I feel that you seem to know Li at all, and you know Li's family!" Now that you know, why have you kept asking me to look for those boys for so many years? This really puzzles me! β
"Rena, there was a little accident here, I'll explain it to you when I have a chance." Liao Shan looked at Rena, and after that, he turned to Li Ling again, "Little Lizi, I didn't expect that this heavenly fate was caught up by you, no matter what, this is your creation, and it is also the blessing that your ancestor gave you!" Thank you so much for the ancestor of the Li family! β
"Master Liao, what are you talking about, I didn't understand...... About you, and my ancestor, can you tell me a good story about this qiΔ? Li Ling was still ignorant.
Liao Shan looked up at the outside of the bookstore and asked Rena, "It should be almost four o'clock in the afternoon, right?" β
"Three fifty-five." Rena said.
Liao Shan nodded, looked at Li Ling and said, "There are some things that you will know sooner or later, and you are not in a hurry at this time." No wonder my eyelids have been jumping for half a month, it turns out, Xiao Lizi, you have already obtained the inheritance of your Li family's ancestor!
"Then I'll get straight to the point, the Luban technique you are carrying is the next volume of "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to the Sect" handed down by the ancestor, two thousand four hundred years, in addition to the ancestor, and your ancestor, you are the third person to get this inheritance, you say, is there green smoke on your ancestral grave?"
Li Ling actually already had some understanding, and this set of doorways in his mind was the second volume of the legendary "Book of Luban" "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect", but he couldn't confirm it.
But now, when this old monster Liao said this, he really realized that he really won the super jackpot - no, this is worth more than winning hundreds of millions of dollars! I couldn't stop getting excited.
Liao Shan continued: "It stands to reason that this book of "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to the Sect" will never be passed down to the world again, because the ancestor Lu Ban has cursed - after his old man returns to heaven, that book of "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to the Sect" will definitely rot and disappear.
"Even if your ancestor memorized it and wrote it out with a pen, the paper would rot! There can never be another book in the world called "The Return of Ten Thousand Laws...... Do you know how you inherited this book of "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to the Sect"? β
"No, I don't know!" Li Ling couldn't be calm at this time, how could he still calm down and think about the problem.
"Alas! One day, you will know. I can only say that this is really the creation of your kid and the blessing of your ancestors, go home and burn incense for your ancestors! Liao Shan sighed slightly,
"Actually, at the beginning, Master Zu only came up with a copy of "Luban Book", which is the set of things in your mind now. If you learn this set of ways, there will be no anti-mantras, there will be no 'missing doors' in your life, and there will not even be a curse, because the ancestor himself will use it.
"But the disciples also want to learn, so what should we do? If they are allowed to learn, the most talented of them may surpass themselves, and even set up their own sect to become their ancestors! So how do you play and where do you stand?
"Therefore, Master Zu changed his "Luban Book" and called it "Shangshu", which also has a name, called "A Thousand Classics Return Mantra"; And the "Book of Luban" that he left by his side, called the "next volume", is what later generations of carpenters called "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect".
In this way, for more than 2,000 years, the first volume of the "Book of Luban" - "The Curse of a Thousand Classics" has been regarded as a secret law classic and the ancestor's magic by the disciples and grandchildren of the ancestor, and then they have been cursed and punished by God from generation to generation.
"But all carpenters who know Lubanshu know that the second volume of the "Luban Book" - "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect", has been lost for two thousand years, and only the ancestor himself and his eldest apprentice Fu Yiyi are proficient in the Lubanshu in this volume.
"After Fu Yi, I have never heard of a carpenter who has this second volume in his hand and has learned the Luban technique without being cursed by the ancestral master. Xiao Lizi, this is the origin of the second volume of "Luban Book" "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect", now you know it. β
"But didn't you say that my ancestor also learned this book "Ten Thousand Laws Return to the Sect"? How come there are still the eldest apprentices of Master Zu who have also learned? Li Ling asked.
Liao Shan nodded and said, "It's one thing, because your Li family's ancestor is the eldest apprentice of the ancestor Fu Yi." β
"Boom!" Li Ling only felt a ringing in his head.
The ancestor of our Li family is the eldest apprentice of the ancestor master?!
All carpenters know that the first three apprentices accepted by the ancestor Luban were: the eldest apprentice Fu Yi, the second apprentice Taishan, and the third apprentice Zhao Qiao.
For more than 2,000 years, the three high-ranking apprentices of the ancestor have also been the idols of later generations of carpenters. These three apprentices are to Luban what Yan Yuan, Min Ziqian, and Zigong are to Confucius in the Confucian sect!
But I didn't dream about it, the ancestor of my Li family turned out to be the eldest disciple of the ancestor Lu Ban!
But the question is, my ancestor's surname is Li, isn't Fu Yi's surname Fu?
"As for the origin of the Luban technique you have mastered, I can only say this. There are many more things that you will slowly understand and gradually come across. I don't need to repeat it for you here, an old monster, and besides, there are some things that cannot be divulged yet. Liao Shan said and took another sip of the liquid in the jade pot,
"Xiao Lizi, you are not bad, you have kindness, filial piety, respect for your ancestors, your ancestor left this set of things to you, it seems that he didn't choose the wrong person! You kid has to take every step, every moment!
"Always remember that in this world, among the six billion people, you are the only successor of the second volume of the "Book of Luban" of the ancestor master, and you are the real descendant of Luban."
"But I never thought about saving the world, eradicating evil, and promoting justice." Li Ling was relieved at this time, and couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and smile, "I just know, I'm about to go to college, I want to be an architect, I want to make enough money to earn 10 million US dollars, help my mother repay the loan, so that she doesn't have to work for the rest of her life, and then, I want to marry a daughter-in-law and give her a grandchild......
"If I really think that I am good enough, it is that I just want to protect and have the ability to protect my family and friends from being hurt and bullied, Liao Shanye, am I a Luban descendant?"
"Hahaha, little lizi, you are very humorous!" Liao Shan laughed loudly, "Xiao Lizi, you remember, in this world, there is no love and hate for no reason, and there is no pie that falls for no reason. If there is gain, there will be loss, and if there is right, there must be responsibility!
"You are only 18 years old, your life has just begun, how your future goes, how to interpret, only depends on your creation and luck, your pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info, but it is higher than all people, I don't know, this is a blessing or a curse for you! Alas! β
"So, Master Liao, what are you calling me here for?" Li Ling asked.
