The first draft is here

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Anything else?

"Hey, there's quite a lot of 'dark grids' here! Grandpa, how many things are you hiding from your grandchildren?! At this time, Zhao Xiaozhao had tens of thousands of grass and mud horses galloping in his heart.

Not knowing what was unknown in front of him, Zhao Hongyin led his grandson to another extremely hidden place.

It's a pretty ordinary place, and if you don't look closely, you'll think it's just a stone wall.

Hehe-Zhao Hongyin twisted the candlestick on the stone wall like a trick, and after turning in a circle, a miracle happened.

At this time, the stone gate moved upwards, and it was still a wall just now, but in the blink of an eye, it was another space.

This feels like I'm playing a chain scheme, one ring after another, each ring has different excitement, but I don't know how many rings, and the more I feel inside, the whole person's heart is trapped in it, and I can't pull it out......

In another space -

This secret room is triangular, east-west, narrow in the east and wide in the west, like a ship from west to east, grinding bricks and joints, all integrated, and there are no traces of artificial carving.

It's a box again......

Through the faint light of the oil lamp, it could be seen that there were also a lot of boxes at this time, and a pile of boxes in the corner of the wall attracted Zhao Xiaozhao's attention, he approached cautiously, and when he opened those boxes, he was stunned. Damn, there are treasures. Then I opened a few more boxes, and they were all jewelry. In the dim light, the glittering light of jeweled gold also illuminated the chamber.

Zhao Xiaozhao's expression was sluggish, and his eyes stared at everything in front of him for a long time. When his grandfather saw that his grandson in front of him was so 'lost and depressed', Zhao Hongyin only stroked his beard slightly, stroked his beard and smiled.

"Why is Zhao'er so panicked, this is my Zhao family's private money, it's not in the way!"

Although the treasure here cannot make the Zhao family rich, it can also ensure the prosperity of the Zhao family. Zhao Xiaozhao's appearance at this time is very similar to the landlord's wife who regards wealth as life in the allusion, and when he sees jewelry, he can't help but touch the east and west, and it is no wonder that he has never seen so much wealth in his previous life, but in Zhao Hongyin's view, this is just the tip of the iceberg of family wealth, and wealth is not particularly important to Zhao Hongyin. At this time, Zhao Xiaozhao deliberately picked out a few particularly good-looking jade pendants and a pair of rings from them, and then carried them in his arms, all of which were seen by Zhao Hongyin beside him.

"Zhao'er, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. But you don't have to! ”

"Grandpa, you are wrong to blame Zhao'er, this ...... I will give away in the future"

Zhao Hongyin's face was black......

At the moment, the two of them have been in the secret room for a long time, and they don't know what the situation is outside...... Time was still of the essence, so Zhao Hongyin then brought his grandson to several cuboidal boxes.

Zhao Hongyin blew away the dust on the box one by one, and when he opened the box, a white cold air came from the inside, making people shudder. When the cold gradually dissipated, Zhao Xiaozhao saw a cold glittering long sword, a swarthy spear, and an 'ordinary' wrapped square object in the box.

When Zhao Xiaozhao reached out to take the sword, his right hand touched the sword body, and then inexplicably a few images flashed in his mind-

The first fragment

"The moon was still hovering over the eastern mountains, and the sun had not yet revealed its true face, when the white mist shrouded the earth, and in a vast pine forest, suddenly the sky was black and white, and it was as if there was a man in the forest, and only a pair of hands were slowly raised. In this man's hands was a sword hilt, only the hilt of the sword was missing, but on the north wall there was a faint shadow of the sword, which disappeared after a moment.

……

The second fragment

In the moment of day and night, the flickering shadow of the sword reappeared. An elegant arc is waving towards a tall ancient pine tree next to it, there is a gentle "click" in the ear, the tree body shook slightly, and there was no change, but soon after, the lush pine cover fell leisurely in a gentle southerly wind, flattening the convex circle of annual rings, indicating the passage of time-

……

The third fragment

The darker the sky, the longer the sword returned to invisible, the ancient twilight closed silently, and there was silence between heaven and earth.

……

In an instant, Zhao Xiaozhao recovered from the dream in a trance, shook his little head, and the fragments that appeared in his mind just now - could it be? Could it be the scene conveyed by the ancient sword? It's incredible.

What kind of sword is this, Zhao Xiaozhao was very puzzled, and stared at his grandfather with big curious eyes. Seeing his grandson's puzzled eyes, Zhao Hongyin still had the same ancient face, and said to him quietly: "Zhao'er, do you see what words are engraved on the sword?" ”

"What is this word?" Zhao Xiaozhao was not very clear about this font in his previous life, so he shook his head and said.

Zhao Hongyin thought that his grandson was smart and clever, and it turned out that his grandson didn't understand everything, so he didn't want to hide it from him: "Zhao'er, look, the two words written on this sword are 'Chengying', and this is Chengying Sword." ”

Chengying? What a familiar name......

When he first heard the word "Chengying", Zhao Xiaozhao felt as if he had heard it before, but he couldn't remember it clearly.

Wrong! Where have you heard of it, and where have you heard it? I looked this sword up and down, and under the gray oil lamp, the shadow of this sword disappeared with the light set off by the oil lamp, and it was not real, as if there was a shadow and an invisible shadow.

"Chengying? Does grandfather know? "Zhao Xiaozhao is eager to know everything about this sword, he usually likes to call his grandfather grandpa, and now-

So the old man who no longer sells Guan Zi said: "This sword is the famous, famous Chengying sword, according to legend, it was cast in the Zhou Dynasty, and the light sword, the night practice sword and called the three swords of Yin Tianzi." At that time, when it was released, someone once said, 'Jiao divides the shadow, and the goose falls and forgets to return', so the name is Chengying. Later, it was collected by Kong Zhou, a famous sword master in the Spring and Autumn Period. Zhao'er, if you have time, you can take a look at "Liezi. Tang Wen", this shadowy and invisible long sword is in "Liezi. Tang Wen" was the famous sword hidden by the patriot Kong Zhou in the Spring and Autumn Period, and then you understand it more clearly, understand? ”

"'Jiao divides the shadow, and the goose falls and forgets to return', it is no wonder that when Sun Er touched this sword just now, that unique scene flashed in his mind. This sword can indeed be called a famous sword in ancient times! ”

Since this sword is a shadow, then what kind of gun is this gun, I don't think it is an ordinary product in this world. Zhao Xiaozhao wanted to weigh the weight of this gun, but he accidentally touched the ground by the gun, and the gun seemed to be emitting a faint light.

"It's so cold!" Zhao Xiaozhao reached out to pick up the gun, but suddenly touched the tip of the gun, and his hand reached back again.

Seeing everything that happened just now, Zhao Hongyin directly explained the cause and effect of this gun.

"Zhao'er, do you know how heavy this pole gun is?"

"Looking at the style of dark iron casting, I don't know if what my grandson said is right?"

"Not really. This gun, one zhang three feet eight inches and four minutes long, is said to weigh seventy-three pounds and seven taels and three coins, the tip of the gun is gold, and the barrel of the gun is also gold. And its peculiarity is that if you accidentally stab at someone else, that person will definitely die, even if he is swept by the gun, he has to vomit five liters of blood, and if he is lightly pierced, he will die for a lifetime, and only Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, can make it move in history, and there is no one else. ”

Zhao Hongyin continued, "Legend has it that before Xiang Yu raised his army, he would have a meteorite from the sky, and then Xiang Liang privately invited local celebrities who cast weapons to use this stone to take stainless steel to forge weapons for Xiang Yu, and finally forged it into a giant chiseled gold tiger head gun after nine days and nine nights, called 'Overlord' This is the spear you see now, as for why it is here in the Zhao family, I don't know very well about this grandfather." ”。

Zhao Hongyin wanted to reach out and put the gun back in its place, but who knew that the gun was too heavy, and he looked helpless.

At this moment, the gun seemed to have signs of life, and the gun made a "zi" sound, and then lay down in front of Zhao Xiaozhao.

Zhao Xiaozhao was taken aback by the sudden scene, and then seemed to think of something, and wanted to try to pick it up, Zhao Hongyin at the scene was stunned, how could it be? The gun, which weighed seventy-three pounds and seven taels and three coins, was gently picked up by a small child.

"Grandpa, grandson wants this gun!" Zhao Xiaozhao gently held it in his hand and looked at the gun carefully-

"It seems that this gun is a confession! Okay, Zhao'er, you can take it, and it will be yours in the future. ”

Now that the sword and the gun are known, what exactly is an 'ordinary' wrapped square object?
