Verse 51: Meet the Patriarch!

Guan Zhong seemed to see the question in Guan Yan's heart, and continued: "Back then, Sun Wu found the land register, was full of ambition, threw himself into the king of Wu, and the handsome Wu army broke through Chu, fought five battles and five victories, and attacked the capital of Chu. Qi Jin in the north, Yue people in the south, famous princes! How can Naifu become more and more tyrannical, life is erosive, indulged in wine, do not accept the advice of ministers, so on the grounds of returning to China to visit relatives, he hid in the mountains and forests, and there is no history from then on. After returning to seclusion, Sun Wu repaired the book and wrote "The Art of War", but because of his discouragement, he passed on the art of war to future generations. ”

"I see." Guan Yan couldn't help but say: "The ancestor has worked hard for forty years, and he has become the hegemon of one side but has not been unified, but he still treasures this book for hundreds of years, which shows that the ancestor's mind is much stronger than that Sun Wu!" ”

"Definitely!" Guan Zhong chuckled a few times: "The Soul Seal Heavenly Book is said to be the Yuan Shi Tianzun and Jiang Ziya, helping him to prosper the Zhou Dynasty and destroy the Shang. It stands to reason that each of the three volumes of Heaven, the First and the Man is enough to calm the world, but why is it that none of the people who hold it can dominate the world? ”

Yes, listening to Guan Zhong say this, Guan Yan secretly thought: Zhang Jiao held the book of heaven and gathered millions of Yellow Turban troops to resist the Han Dynasty, and his soul was scattered in less than a year; Sun Wu held the land book, invincible, the soldiers pointed out, invincible, but only for a while, he returned to the mountains and forests; Looking at the ancestor Guan Zhong's book of deacons, he has the talent of the heavens and latitudes, and the strategy of helping the world, but he only helped Huan Gong to be the overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, and there was no achievement. Is there any truth in this?

Guan Yan hurriedly asked, "Please also ask Uncle Zhong to teach him!" ”

Guan Zhong's right hand was gently placed on the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy" and said: "If you get one of the three volumes, you will only get its benefits, but you will not be able to do it at the right time!" ”

Guan Yan was puzzled: "What does this mean?" ”

"The ancestors finally figured it out when they were dying: the only one who can be unified by the Book of Heaven is Jiang Ziya, and the one who gets one of the three volumes may be the hegemon of one side for a while, but he cannot be unified. Only the integration of the three volumes can accept the will of heaven and settle the Quartet! Guan Zhong looked at Guan Yan and said.

Guan Yan was overjoyed, pointed to the three books on the stone platform and said: "In this way, we have found three books, don't we not fulfill the will of heaven?" ”

Guan Zhong shook his head, pointed to the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy" and "Taiping Techniques" and said: "These two books are the original inscriptions, and only by finding the original of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", the three volumes in one, can we spy on the will of heaven!" ”

Guan Yan was instantly disappointed, Sun Wu had been dead for hundreds of years, and unlike Guan Zhong, the whole clan lived in seclusion and hid the original well, this "Art of War" originally didn't know where to go, where to find it!

Guan Zhong patted Guan Yan on the shoulder and said, "Wen Dexiu has to think more, he deserves it, let's go back first." ”

Saying that, Guan Zhong carefully put the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy" close to his body, and handed over the "Taiping Technique" to Guan Yan and instructed him to put it away.

The two walked out of Yiwu Hall, and then came to the terrifying iron chain bridge in the clouds, groping and groping from the clouds to the crane peak "floated......

Back at Hefeng, it was almost noon. Guan Yan hurriedly finished his lunch, and was called to the ancestral hall by Guan Zhong. Guan Yan thought about it yesterday that the patriarch had said that the patriarch would be passed on to the patriarch in the afternoon today, Guan Yan thought it was a joke, but he didn't expect it to be so fast, Guan Yan freshened up and put it on, and then walked to the ancestral hall.

There were twenty or thirty people standing here and there in the ancestral hall, and the Guan clan was scarce, and those present were all servants of the Guan clan for generations and some distant cousins.

Guan Yan slowly walked through the back hall and walked into the ancestral hall under the gaze of everyone. Huang Ning also stood in the middle of the crowd, watching Guan Yan slowly walk in, Huang Ning's eyes gradually became gloomy. When everyone saw Guan Yan's arrival, they slowly began to talk to each other. Guan Yan looked at his nose and his nose, and stood quietly aside.

After a while, the patriarch wrapped in a fur fur was lying on a big chair of rosewood and was slowly carried in by four strong men, and the emaciated patriarch slowly stood up with the support of Guan Zhong, took three lit sandalwood sticks and bowed down to the ancestral tablet with difficulty.

After the patriarch finished worshipping, Guan Zhong took the sandalwood in the patriarch's hand again, walked to the god case and inserted it into the incense burner. Turning around, Guan Zhong slowly helped the patriarch up and sat on the recliner again.

The patriarch gasped for a moment, his cloudy eyes swept over everyone, and he said weakly: "Guan Ang, the twenty-second generation patriarch of the Guan clan, is the ancestor of Shangzhao, and the people of the clan are below: Ang is old, seriously ill, and his days are numbered; In order to succeed the clan affairs, the patriarch will be passed on to the eldest son Guan Yan first, and the people of the clan will be carefully assisted to revive the glory of the Guan family! ”

After that, Guan Zhong had already taken out the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy" and put his hands in front of Guan Ang. Guan Ang straightened up slightly with a painful face, took the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy", held it with both hands, and stretched forward tremblingly: "Wu'er Guan Yan, take over this "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy", you are ...... It's my ...... Patriarch! ”

Guan Yan hurriedly knelt down in front of Guan Ang, lowered his head, raised his hands high, and prepared to take over the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy".

Just when the ancient book was about to touch Guan Yan's fingers, Guan Ang suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, his body was paralyzed, he fell to the chair, and the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy" also fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Guan Zhong hurriedly knelt beside Guan Ang, choked up and shouted softly: "Patriarch, patriarch ......" Guan Yan also hurriedly got up and ran to Guan Ang's side. I saw that the patriarch Guan Ang had a trace of blood hanging on the side of his mouth, and he had already breathed out a lot and had little breath, so it could be said that he was powerless to return to the sky.

The people of the tribe were also stunned by this sudden incident, and they did not know what to do. At this moment, a voice sounded: "Guan Yan can't take over the position of patriarch!" ”

Wave after wave, everyone's eyes looked at the person who spoke - Huang Ning! .

Huang Ning took a step forward, walked out of the crowd, and repeated: "Guan Yan can't take over the position of patriarch!" ”

Guan Zhong glared at Huang Ning angrily and said, "Huang Ning! Didn't you hear what the patriarch said before Xianyou? Don't quit yet! “

Huang Ning put his hands behind his back, but took another step forward and said: "The patriarch needs to personally hand over the token, the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy", to the new patriarch, and the new patriarch can take the position, this is the ancestral training!" Guan Yan did not receive the token from the patriarch! ”

Guan Zhong stood up, stared at Huang Ning and said, "This is because of a sudden change, the patriarch has a testament, and he should keep it!" ”

Huang Ning didn't dare to look directly at Guan Zhong's eyes, turned over slightly and continued: "Since it is an accident, we should use the ancestral training as the system to elect the patriarch, isn't it." ”

There seemed to be a few people in the crowd who were Huang Ning's close friends, and when they heard Huang Ning's opinion, they all echoed it in the back. A few of the other clansmen saw that some people agreed, and unconsciously followed suit.

Looking at this chaotic scene, Guan Yan was a little confused, but after all, it was someone else's territory, and it was not easy to do anything by himself, not to mention that he didn't have to be the patriarch. It's just that Guan Zhong is a lot older, and he is still angry here, so he quietly walked to Guan Zhong's side, ready to comfort Guan Zhong.

The candle flame on the shrine seemed to be mocking the noise of the crowd, swaying gently. Suddenly, a gray shadow brought a gust of wind to extinguish the candle flame, and instantly rushed towards Huang Ning, before Huang Ning could react in a hurry, an ancient sword was already across his neck.

"Loyalty...... Uncle Zhong! After seeing the faces of the people who came, Huang Ning shouted in panic.

Guan Yan stood still, his right hand was still raised in mid-air, and he wanted to pat Guan Zhong's shoulder just now to comfort him, but the figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Guan Yan looked at the sword in Guan Zhong's hand and seemed to be a little familiar, and hurriedly looked at his waist, only one scabbard of the Tai'a Divine Sword was left dangling around his waist, and Guan Yan said secretly in surprise: What a fast speed!

Huang Ning looked at Guan Zhong's beard, and then remembered that Guan Zhong had been practicing swords for 30 years since he was a child, and he was the senior brother of the "Sword Absolute Sword" Wang Yue. It's just that over the years, Guan Ang has stopped going down the mountain due to poor health, and Guan Zhong's age has gradually increased, and he hasn't done anything with anyone for a long time, so Guan Zhong's impression has gradually been replaced by a kind elder.

"If you say it again, I'll let your blood splash the ancestral hall!" Guan Zhong said sharply with his sword.

Huang Ning swallowed and spit, his eyes glanced at the blade of the sword in his throat, how dare he say another word?

Some of the clansmen who had just made a coax were also frightened by Guan Zhong's power and did not dare to speak.

Guan Zhong snorted, glanced at the people, put away his sword and walked to Guan Yan, picked up the "Twenty-four Articles of National Policy" on the ground and handed it to Guan Yan, took a deep look at Guan Yan, took a step back, and bowed down and said, "Meet the patriarch." ”

Seeing this, all the clansmen knelt down and said, "Meet the patriarch." ”

Huang Ning also knelt down slowly, looked ahead in confusion with lost eyes, and said weakly: "Meet the patriarch......"
