Chapter 130: Gan Cheng's Knife
Because the Gan family's house was built six or seven years ago after Gan Shuangshuang's parents got married, it is still just a bungalow, unlike now, every household is a single-door courtyard and a two-story small western-style building.
Gan Shuangshuang has her own keys, and every week she finds time to come back and clean the house. So after entering, Liu Meng found that the house was quite tidy.
"Where's your grandfather and grandmother's room?" Liu Meng asked directly.
"That one." Gan Shuangshuang pointed to a room to the west.
Liu Meng entered Gan Cheng and Fang Rao's room, and with Gan Shuangshuang's acquiescence, he began to rummage through the items with the identity characteristics of the two of them. The room was not large, and the furnishings were not complicated, and soon Liu Meng found the target item in an old wooden box, a flute with a strange shape. Incidentally, there is also a treasure knife engraved with a strange inscription.
And it was this treasure knife that made Liu Meng feel surprised.
This knife is more than two feet long, gloomy and cold like a curve of flowing water, and the blade is relatively narrow. The most special thing is the tip of the knife, which is a distinct half-moon shape, that is, there are two knife tips, similar to a two-pointed fork. The handle of the knife is tightly wound with a rope of unknown material, so that people can tell at a glance that it is a handmade product.
When Liu Meng came to college first, he also browsed many pictures of treasure knives on the Internet to satisfy his cravings, and this kind of knife happened to be the one Liu Meng had seen - Husa knife, also known as **, from the Achang people who are the best at making treasure knives.
Then, the nation of Gancheng is also about to come out, if there is no accident, it is the Achang tribe!
In order to determine Gan Cheng's identity, Liu Meng searched carefully in the room of the two, and after finding nothing, he returned to Taoyuan Primary School with the strange Xiao and **. searched the Internet for information on the strange flute, and soon determined that it was another representative item of the Achang clan, the three-leaf flute.
According to the information on the Internet, men of the Achang tribe generally wear these two items, ** and the three-leaf flute. ** Used to hunt and fight enemies, while the shamrock is used to pursue the girl you love and confess to her. Both are very important and are basically inseparable.
From this, Liu Meng can finally determine that Gan Cheng should be a member of the Achang tribe.
But when he searched further for the Achang people's information, Liu Meng found that things were far more troublesome than he thought.
Although the Achang people in Nanzhao are less than 30,000 people, they are divided into several tribes, and the Achang people are only the general name given by the state to these tribes. These are all just literal, as for those small tribes that do not even know about the country and do not have literal information, there are even more.
In addition, the Achang people all live in the dense mountains and forests of the Nu River basin in the southwest, and it is difficult to reach the sky if they want to visit them one by one.
And with the clue of the Achang tribe alone, it is obviously impossible to find Gancheng's tribe.
Liu Meng looked at the Husa knife in his hand and the three-leaf flute on the table, while thinking back to the previous search of Gan Cheng and Fang's mother-in-law's room. Then I found a strange place, I couldn't see a special item about Fang Rao's (that is, Fang's mother-in-law) identity in the room, as if she was a Han woman.
Did Granny Fang take it away, or something else?
Both of them are ethnic minorities, but Granny Fang seems to be much more mysterious than Gan Cheng.
Shaking his head to dispel the idea of guessing the identity of Granny Fang, Liu Meng looked at the computer again, and saw that a lot of information about the Achang people searched on the web was the information of **shop, Liu Meng's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he thought of a way to try.
After another afternoon of searching and busyness on the Internet, Liu Meng booked two tickets from Yiyang City to Nanzhao the next day.
The next morning, Liu Meng handed over Gan Feifei to Yin Lumo and Worm, and after some explanation and instructions, he took Gan Shuangshuang to Yiyang City by car. At noon that day, the two took a plane to Nanzhao.
Liu Meng's destination is the town of Husa, which is the famous production area of Husa knife (**), and many Husa knife shops are concentrated in that town, so there is not only a prosperous handmade knife industry, but also a good tourism industry. But it takes seven or eight hours to get to Husa Town from the city where the airport is located, so Liu Meng is ready to rest for the afternoon and go back tomorrow.
Liu Meng had confirmed on the Internet before that there was a knife master of Husa knife in Husa Town, basically the real Husa knife, he could see it at a glance, and he could judge which tribe it came from. Liu Meng just wanted to use the eyes of those Husa knife masters to judge the specific origin of Gan Cheng's knife.
After resting for an afternoon, at three or four o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, Liu Meng took Gan Shuangshuang to Husa Town, and met the knife master who was contacted by an intermediary on the Internet.
That's a fifty-in-one, very good man. Although he had already divided the money paid by Liu Meng from the middleman, he still said lightly after seeing Liu Meng: "What about the knife?" ”
Liu Meng came by plane, so naturally he couldn't bring the Husa knife on the plane, so he only brought a photo of the Husa knife and Gan Cheng's three-leaf flute.
Liu Meng took out his mobile phone and flipped out the photo of Gan Cheng's Husa knife, handed it to the knife master, and said, "It's urgent, I didn't bring the knife, this is a photo of the knife, take a look." ”
The master of the knife art sneered directly when he heard this: "If you don't bring a knife, do you think you can identify a knife with a few photos?" ”
After speaking, the knife master turned around and was about to leave, but when he caught a glimpse of the photo on Liu Meng's mobile phone, he was stunned for a moment.
Liu Meng was speechless when he saw that the master of knife art was angry, but he didn't expect that there would be so much attention to identifying a knife. Ben was ready to think of another way, but he found that the knife master was abnormal. So Liu Meng calmed down and patiently waited for the knife master to finish reading the photos.
The master of knife art had already picked up Liu Meng's mobile phone and looked through other photos of the Husa knife, and by the time he had carefully studied several photos of the Husa knife, he could not suppress his excitement.
Before the mobile phone was returned, the knife master looked at Liu Meng with burning eyes and said, "Do you really have this Husa knife?" ”
Liu Meng saw that there seemed to be a play, and he was also happy, and said: "Of course, the photos were taken the day before yesterday." Why, do you recognize the origin of this knife? ”
The knife master said: "After so many years, I didn't expect to see this kind of pure handmade Husa knife again, and the knife-making skills are much higher than the one I saw before!" ”
After the explanation of the knife master, Liu Meng learned that the current Husa knife is generally made of industrial steelmaking knife blanks, rather than the previous Husa knife, which was completed by the knife maker himself from the beginning of ore selection. Therefore, the current Tosa knives are called handmade products, and the previous ones are called pure handmade products.
However, these are not what Liu Meng is interested in. Interrupting the knife master's unconsciously excited explanation, Liu Meng asked directly: "Master, what information does this knife reveal about its owner?" ”
The master of knife art said: "If I am not mistaken, this should be the best Galaxy knife of the legendary colorful knife." A knife is used, like a galaxy, strangling a qiē. This kind of knife can only be made by Lasa Village, which is the best at making knives. ”
Finally hearing the useful information, Liu Meng became excited almost immediately, but he had not yet lost his cool. After thinking about it, he then asked, "Is it possible that someone else got this knife from Lasa Village?" ”
"The owner of this knife should also have a three-leaf flute, right?" The knife master asked rhetorically.
"That's right." Liu Meng simply took out the three-leaf flute and handed it to the master of knife art.
The master of the knife art looked at the three-leaf flute and sighed: "That's right, it is indeed a retro three-leaf flute." Only a few decades ago, the Achang men would often bring their own zuò Husa knives and three-leaf flutes with them, which were as valuable as their hands and feet, and they rarely gave them away, let alone bought and sold. Therefore, it is not surprising that the owner of this knife should be from Lasa Village. ”
Finally inquired about Gan Cheng's clan, Liu Meng couldn't help but look at Gan Shuangshuang beside him.
At this time, Gan Shuangshuang was already muttering to himself: "Lasa Village, will it be Grandpa's hometown..."
