Chapter 163: Peerless Famous Sword

"Haha, okay, apprentice, the master is going to return to the fairy world to do things, you have to cultivate hard in the world, and you must cultivate the highest move on the "Pure Yang Sword Spectrum", ten thousand swords, so that the teacher can let you do a big thing in the future!"

Gu Ying seems to have some purpose in giving Gao Yang a sword book, but he didn't sue him now. "Immortal Master, what master wants me to do!" Gao Yang asked puzzled.

"You shouldn't know, you can't know yet. When you succeed in cultivating the Ten Thousand Swords, you will sue you for the sake of the teacher. Gu Ying didn't get the word out.

"Yes, I know." Gao Yang nodded obediently.

"Apprentice, don't be happy now, think that you can rest easy by passing on the mantle to you for the teacher. Like several of my other disciples, I began to enjoy life. Then you're wrong. ”

Gu Ying always looked at Gao Yang with a smile on his face, looking innocent, he had to remind Gao Yang.

"Does the immortal master mean that I will have some trouble in the future!" Gao Yang guessed the immortal master's thoughts. "Of course, the mantle of being a teacher is what many people want, especially this ancient sword, which can be said to be the most important mantle for a teacher.

This is a Chongyang sword, which was used by the Chongyang Patriarch back then.

Although it was used by the ancestor back then, this sword was not made by the ancestor himself. The history of this ancient sword is even older. It is a real ancient sword with a history of 2,000 years. ”

Ancient Shadow Immortal Master, now I want to tell Gao Yang about this ancient sword, just to let him practice the sword well, so that he can not only protect himself. It can also protect this sword.

"Immortal Master, what is the origin of this ancient sword!" Gao Yang listened to the words of the immortal master. I was even more interested in this ancient sword.

"Speaking of the origin of this ancient sword, we have to mention the most famous sword-casting master in the Spring and Autumn Period, Ou Yezi. I don't know if the apprentice has heard of this famous sword-forging master in ancient times! After Gu Ying finished speaking, he looked at Gao Yang seriously.

"Ou Yezi. I've heard of it! Isn't he the most famous sword-casting master in Chu at that time, the sword of King Goujian of Yue, isn't it the work of Master Ou Yezi! ”

Of course, Gao Yang has heard of Ou Yezi, how to say that he is also a college student, and he still knows some historical knowledge in this area.

Ou Yezi was a master swordsmith of the Yue Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period, he made many famous swords, and was the founder of the most famous Longquan Sword. In addition, the Longyuan Sword is also his work.

At that time, Gou Jian, the king of Yue, was a man who loved swords, and the country had to fight with Wu. So he ordered Ou Yezi to make eight of his favorite swords.

Gou Jian is fond of sword casting. According to the "Collected Memories" record: "The king of Yue Goujian, so that the workers worship my god with white horses and white oxes, and mine gold to cast them into the essence of eight swords, one covers the sun, two cut off the water, three turn the spirit, four hang the suspension, five are startled salamanders, and six are extinguished." Seven are evil, and eight are really strong. He was also passionate about collecting and collecting famous swords. At that time, Xue Candle, the sword appraisal master, was surprised when he saw the sword that Gou Jian treasured. Said he had never seen this rare treasure.

Ou Yezi was also the father-in-law of another famous sword-casting master at that time, because Mo Ye was Ou Yezi's daughter. The cadre is because he married the daughter of a swordsmith. made him a master swordsmith.

"Oh, I didn't think the apprentice knew a lot! Simply a historian! "Gu Ying really hasn't met. Gao Yang still knows a lot about history, so he praised Gao Yang.

"The immortal master has won the prize. How can I compare with the Immortal Master! I said that these immortal masters must know better than me. Gao Yang knew that although he had said some sword-forging masters in history in front of the Immortal Master, the Immortal Master must know them better than himself.

"Haha, of course, otherwise, I would have lived for more than two hundred years in vain. Of course, I know the historical story you are talking about. Gu Ying looked at Gao Yang and smiled.

"Immortal Master, what does this Chongyang Sword in my hand have to do with Master Ou Yezi! Could it be that this is also the work of Master Ou Yezi. Gao Yang thought, since the immortal master said that this sword is related to Ou Yezi, then of course this sword is Ou Yezi's work.

"That's right, this sword is called Zhengang, and it is the same grade as the Yue Wang Goujian sword unearthed from the No. 5 tomb of Ma'an in Jiangling, Hubei, and it is one of the eight peerless famous swords that Ou Yezi disrupted for the work."

Gu Ying now told Gao Yang the real name of this sword, just to let Gao Yang know that this sword is not an ordinary sword, it is a peerless sword with a long history.

"Ah, it's a grade with the Yue Wang Goujian Sword, that is to say, this sword can also be called the Yue Wang Goujian Sword."

Gao Yang was very surprised when he heard the immortal master say that this Zhengang sword was the work of the same era as the Yue King Goujian sword, so to speak, this ancient sword itself is a priceless ancient cultural relic.

"That's right, it's a priceless ancient artifact. Patriarch Wang Chongyang, in order to get this Zhengang sword at that time, he also took a lot of pains.

This ancient sword was originally buried under his mausoleum by a nobleman of the Chu State. Until the time of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and it became a great opportunity for tomb robbers, and the tomb of this Chu nobleman was also robbed by tomb robbers.

At that time, the tomb robbers stole this peerless sword from the mausoleum. But they didn't know the goods, and they didn't know that this sword was the work of the ancient swordsmith Ou Yezi, but it was just a sword that the nobleman asked someone to cast during his lifetime.

The tomb robbers themselves were not interested in the sword, they wanted the silver, so they wanted to get the sword out as soon as possible. in exchange for silver. But they couldn't take the cultural relics of the tomb robbery to the cultural relics market openly, so they had to find ways to deal with them privately.

At this time, a tomb robber thought of a trick, that is, he could sell this sword to some Taoist priests. Because Taoist priests are people who like to carry a sword, and usually like to practice swords, there is a tomb robber who advocates selling the sword to the Taoist temple.

But to whom are you going to sell it? At this time, another tomb robber put forward an opinion, saying that it could be sold to Wang Chongyang. Because, Wang Chongyang was already a relatively famous Taoist priest at that time, and many people knew him, and of course these tomb robbers had heard of him.

So they took this sword to Wang Chongyang's Taoist temple. At that time, Wang Chongyang was meditating and cultivating, and some disciples sued him, and several people wanted to see him.

He didn't care at the time, so he let them go to the main hall of the temple.

At this time, three tomb robbers came to the main hall of the Taoist temple, and one of them took out this sword wrapped in black cloth.

"Chief, look, do you need such a treasure!" A tomb robber looked at Wang Chongyang and asked. "Ah, it's a sword!" Wang Chongyang was already taken aback after just one look, because he had already seen that this sword exuded some aura around it, and at first glance it was a treasure cultural relic that had just been unearthed.

However, he did not express surprise, but said in a calm tone.

"Dao Chief, this is a treasure! It's hard to find in the world! I think you'll love it. A tomb robber looked at Wang Chongyang and said with a hippie smile.

"This sword is good, I don't know, where did you get it." Wang Chongyang has already guessed some reasons, but he hasn't said it yet.

"It's not complacent, this is what we just came fromβ€”"

One of the tomb robbers was about to say that he had dug up from the mausoleum, but before he could finish speaking, another tomb robber interrupted.

"Dao Chief, this is what our brother just picked up from the Linghe River, and you also know that in these years, there is a shortage of soldiers, fighting all day long, and it is common for some soldiers' weapons to be discarded on the battlefield. By the Naling River, I heard that there was a battle just last year! This sword must have been lost by some general. ”

It seems that this tomb robber does not want Wang Chongyang to know the true origin of this sword, to say, Taoist priests are monks, not state officials, they generally do not care about these tomb robberies in the world.

But robbing a tomb is not a good thing after all, and it is better not to let people know, even if it is a monk, there is no need to let them know.

So the grave robber interrupted the grave robber. Maybe this tomb robber is still the little head of these three people! When the two tomb robbers heard this, they all echoed in unison: "Yes! Dao Chief, this is what our brother just picked up from the Linghe River, do you see if it's a general's sword! ”

"Hmmm! That's right, it's probably the sword of a certain general, show me. Wang Chongyang said as he took the sword. Then I pretended to look up and down.

"May I ask if you have ever opened this sword?" Wang Chongyang admired the appearance of the sword and casually asked the tomb robbers.

"No, I, we don't dare to open it, for fear of accidentally hurting ourselves, you see, we are all weak scholars, so dare to open the sword casually!" A tomb robber said something that made Wang Chongyang want to laugh when he heard it.

However, these tomb robbers were also telling the truth, and when they got the sword from the mausoleum, they also wanted to open it to see if it was still sharp. After all, they were tomb robbers and wanted to use a weapon for self-defense.

But what made them strange was that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't open the sword, so they had better just give up. That's when I wanted to get it for some silver.

"The sword is a good sword, you give a price!" When Wang Chongyang saw this sword, he was excited, he knew that this was God helping him! But he can't show it, otherwise, these tomb robbers won't be asking for a sky-high price!

"Okay, I want this sword, you can make a price" Wang Chongyang returned the sword to the tomb robber, and then asked with a smile. "The Taoist wants it! Then a thousand taels of silver! One of them, the tomb robber who seemed to be a small leader, looked at Wang Chongyang and said. (To be continued......)
