Chapter 160: The Legend of the Male and Female Swords
"Grandpa, this ...... How can this be?! When Master Zu said to let He Qing choose two antiques arbitrarily in his collection room, He Qing was surprised, he never expected that the other party would look up to himself so much, a huge collection room, there are countless treasures in it, and picking any thing may be a fragrant dumpling on the auction floor, and Master Zu let people choose two things arbitrarily from here, what a big bearing, of course, the premise is how much he values each other.
"Why not?" Master Zu smiled and said, "The first time you come to me, I naturally have to show something, and I don't know what to give you except for sending you some collections." ”
He Qing said with a straight expression: "But...... These are your treasures, how can I win people's love? ”
He couldn't imagine how generous Master Zu was to him, if he chose two of the best collections here, such as porcelain from the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, or other valuable treasures, then wouldn't the other party be "a heavy loss", but of course he wouldn't do it, even if it was according to the meaning of Master Zu, he would only pick some elegant toys that were not very valuable but had a certain significance, and the heavy weapons inside were greedy.
I just heard Master Zu replied casually: "I am more fraternity with antiques, so I like antiques in general, many of the things in this collection room have been collected for decades, and some have just been received, but in my eyes, there is no difference between them, they are all my treasures, there is no difference between high and low value, so you can choose any two things are the same for me." ”
"I ......" He Qing was so excited that he was a little speechless, he faintly felt in his heart that Master Zu was different from ordinary collectors, his realm had reached its peak, for people like him who never worried about money, the market value of antiques was not so important, what he appreciated was the real meaning behind an antique, such as cultural and artistic value and historical research value.
"Xiaohe, don't be embarrassed." Master Zu said solemnly, "Collecting is a hobby, a hobby, and this hobby can only be enjoyed by sharing it with like-minded people!" I like to paint, I have collected a lot of ancient paintings, and I have painted a lot of them myself, I used to feel not very satisfied with my paintings, until I found that you found a piece of Li ink in your hand, and you did not hesitate to lend me ink twice, if you lend my friend a pot of ink, that is three times! You've done me a great favor and made our wish come true! Although you didn't send me anything directly, I've already received several huge gifts! So it's okay, you choose, there's always something you like, right? This is a part of my heart, I hope you accept it, don't shirk. ”
Hearing Master Zu say that from the bottom of his heart, He Qing couldn't help but be moved in his heart, only that Master Zu was a person who knew how to repay his kindness, and he didn't want to accept your things in vain, so he wanted to make up for this generous gift.
"Everything in here is a treasure, and I think it's all good." He Qing nodded and said, Master Zu's enthusiasm seemed to make him a little embarrassed, as the so-called "under the hospitality but disrespect", Master Zu is so sincere, if he blindly refuses, wouldn't it be a little contemptuous of others.
After finishing speaking, he subconsciously turned his head to look, and casually glanced at the place, and a relatively thick red light came into his eyes.
The red light is the ancient sword hanging on the wall, a total of two, the shape is a little similar, but one large and one small, both swords have exquisite scabbards, hanging side by side, giving people a very wonderful feeling, as if it was a pair of swords, used by the two people, put together after practicing the sword.
He Qing likes to read martial arts novels since he was a child, and has a martial arts complex, and the sword seems to have become a symbol of chivalrous men and heroines, so whenever he sees a sword, he inevitably falls into a fantasy, fantasizing about the scene of swords and swords.
"Do you like ancient swords?" Seeing He Qing's gaze resting on the two swords on the wall, Master Zu seemed to realize something, so he asked with a smile.
He Qing reacted immediately, shook his head and said, "No." ”
His eyes flickered, and he clearly didn't say what was in his heart.
Master Zu has been an appraiser for decades, and his eyesight is so keen, He Qing's every move can't escape his eyes.
"Those two swords are a pair." Master Zu explained, "It's the Yin and Yang Sword." ”
"Yin Yang Sword?!" He Qing was taken aback, he had a preconceived idea that they were two magic weapons, and they were swords worn by Taoist priests.
Unexpectedly, Master Zu said: "Yes, it is the 'Yin and Yang Sword', it can also be said to be the 'male and female sword', as the name suggests, a female and a male, it may be a pair of swords, used in both hands, or it may be a pair of swords in the 'Double Sword Combination', which is held by two people separately, the male and female swords are only relative to the sword, not that the female sword is specially made for women, of course, it may also be used by women." ”
He Qing asked rhetorically: "I only know that there are a pair of famous swords in history, Mo Ye, is that a male and female sword?!" ”
If there is a zài in the martial arts world, then there are many famous swords in the so-called "male and female swords", and the "gentleman's sword" and "lady's sword" used by Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu respectively in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are typical of them.
But that's a fictional world after all, and it's not enough to take it out and enumerate.
"Yes, that's the most famous 'male and female sword', and the male and female swords generally refer to the cadres and the Mo Evil Sword." Master Zu nodded and replied.
"Well, it should be." He Qing responded.
He Qing not only likes to read the official history, but also likes to read wild history, as well as ancient novels such as Zhiwei, so he knows that there are indeed legends of cadres and Mo Xie in history.
It is said that during the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a couple named Ganjiang and Mo Ye in the State of Wu who would make swords and became famous all over the world.
The cadre knew that if he could not hand over the sword on time, he would be executed by King Wu, and he was very anxious.
Mo Xie heard that in order to create a miraculous thing, she had to make a heavy sacrifice, and in order to save her husband from being killed, she resolutely jumped into the blazing fire and sacrificed her sword with her own blood, so that two radiant and sharp swords were finally made.
Later, the cadre will commemorate his wife and name the two swords "Ganjiang" and "Mo Xie", which is the famous "male and female sword".
The cadre knew that King Wu was a cruel and tyrannical person, and he would definitely not come back alive if he went to sacrifice the sword himself, so he left the male sword to his son and only dedicated the female sword to King Wu.
Sure enough, King Wu used the excuse that the cadre had expired and executed the cadre, and later, the son of the cadre and Mo Xie grew up and killed King Wu with the sword left by his father, avenging his parents.
Although this story is recorded in the mythological story "Sou Shen Ji", it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and many people know that there were these two famous swords in ancient times, and these two swords are impressively listed among the top ten famous swords in ancient China.
"But that pair of male and female swords can't be the Cadre Mo Evil Sword." Master Zu suddenly said, "After all, the cadre Mo Evil Sword only exists in zài mythological novels, and there should be no zài in reality." However, those two swords are excellent bronze forged swords, and the specific age has not been verified, it may be from the Qin and Han dynasties, or it may really be from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It's not easy to collect a pair of male and female swords that have a certain relationship, and that pair of swords is not easy to come by! Xiao He, take down that pair of swords and take a good look at them, you can see that you like those 'male and female swords' quite a lot." ”
"Huh?!" Hearing this, He Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
But he reacted immediately, and Master Zu revealed his thoughts at a glance, and at this moment he wanted to calm down and appreciate the pair of "male and female swords" to see what their origin was.
"There you go." Master Zu greeted.
"yes, okay." He Qing turned around as he said, took out white sanitary gloves and put them on, and then unhurriedly brought a special simple guardladder, slowly climbed up, and carefully removed the pair of swords.
After taking the thing down, it was gently placed on the exhibition stand on the side, and the matter had come to this point, He Qing could see enough of the two ancient swords that exuded "treasure light" at close range.
His gaze narrowly condensed on one of the swords, and the red light converged in front of his eyes, and quickly helped him see the origin of the sword.
He had a general understanding of how the ancestor got the process, and he quickly determined the specifics of the sword, but the thing was not from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but from the Qin Dynasty, but a "veritable" male and female sword, worn by a man and a woman, and the two were actually swordsmen and heroines who wandered the world.
Although the "movie" was released too fast, He Qing couldn't see the details clearly, but he could vaguely see that the pair of "double swords" were Jing Ke's general cunzài, they were swordsmen who were ready to assassinate the Qin Emperor, but they seemed to have failed, and the two were martyred in the war.
After watching the recorded images, He Qing couldn't help but feel a thrill, and there was also a very wonderful feeling that invaded his brain.
His thoughts spanned thousands of years, and he seemed to have traveled through history, back to the war era in the period of cold weapons.
Although the pair of "male and female swords" in front of him was not the legendary famous sword cadre Mo Xie Sword, He Qing was not disappointed at all, the pair of male and female swords under his command were even more legendary, and he seemed to be able to see the boiling blood on the sword.
"Grandpa, can I pull out this sword and take a look?" He Qing then asked.
"Absolutely! Just look at it. Master Zu nodded without hesitation.
"Thank you." He Qing thanked him, and his face was slightly red at this moment, as if he was very excited.
After getting the permission of the ancestors, He Qing held the relatively large bronze sword, although the scabbard was slightly rusty, but it was very well preserved, and there were inscriptions on it, and the workmanship was exquisite.
He Qing held the hilt of the sword tightly with one hand, and then slowly pulled it out, the scabbard and hilt were rusty, but the sword body shone brightly, and the sharpness was visible.
But when they all pulled out, He Qing's brows furrowed, and he secretly exclaimed, "That's really the case!" ”
