The Beginning of the Troubled Times Chapter 69 Zhan Lu and Tai A
After a night, Liu Pi did not come back, and people thought that he must have become the white snake's meal. The sun came out, the clouds cleared, and everyone thought that the white snake should have eaten and drunk enough after eating Liu Pi, and would not harm people anymore. So after deliberation, they decided to move on.
After walking for a while, everyone came to the place where they saw the white snake last night. Suddenly, they saw the huge white snake cut in two and its body thrown on the side of the road. After walking a few miles further, he found Liu Pi lying on the side of the road and snoring and sleeping, when a cloud of qi was shrouded above his body, and a red dragon was flying lazily around in the cloud. The iron rod around Liu Pi's waist was gone, replaced by a golden sword decorated with colorful beads, Jiuhua jade, and a blade like frost and snow, and the sword was clearly engraved with two seal characters "Chixiao". At this moment, people realized that what Liu Pi said was true. Since then, Liu Pi has taken this group of young people who were originally going to work as apprentices in Fengxian County and the gangsters in the township who drank with themselves all day long on their own road to becoming emperor, and established the greatest feudal dynasty in Chinese history in just a few years "Han Dynasty", and the "Chixiao Sword" worn by Liu Pi has also become a "sword of the emperor". After Liu Mi's death, the "Chixiao Sword" also disappeared from the present world, just like its appearance, no one knows how it came about, and no one knows how it disappeared, and finally nearly five hundred years after the fall of the Han Dynasty, the "Chixiao Sword" reappeared. However, this time, it became the natal flying sword of an ancestor of the Xu family. And the ancestor of the Xu family also relied on the help of the "Chixiao Sword" to reach the Great Perfection realm of opening the Nine Swords at the age of thirty.
And Xu Sheng's second "Zhanlu Sword" is called the "Sword of Benevolence", because although Zhanlu is a sword, it is more like an eye, it is like a deep and discerning black eye of the heavens, watching every move of the king and princes. The record of this sword in the ancestral home of the Xu family says: "The gentleman is virtuous, the sword is on the side, and the country is prosperous." The king is incompetent, the sword is abandoned, and the country is ruined. The English of hardware, the essence of the sun, the god of the out, the power of the service". The original black and traceless long sword of the "Zhanlu Sword" makes people feel not its sharpness, but its generosity and kindness. The ancestral home of the Xu family also records that the "Zhanlu Sword" was cast by Ou Yezi, a sword-casting master in the Spring and Autumn Period of China, and when Ou Yezi cast this sword, there was a vision of heaven and earth in the sky, "the light penetrates the sky, the sun and the moon shine, the stars avoid color, and the ghosts and gods cry out". Ou Yezi himself couldn't help but shed tears when the "Zhanlu Sword" was completed, because he finally fulfilled his lifelong dream: to cast an indestructible weapon without the slightest murderous aura. After the "Zhanlu Sword" was baked, Ou Yezi dedicated it to the then King of Yue, who loved it very much, and under the caresse, he named it "Zhanlu" and passed it down as a national treasure of the Yue Kingdom. Later, it was passed to Goujian, the king of Yue. In a war between Wu and Yue, due to Goujian's defeat, Goujian had no choice but to pay tribute to Wu Wangfucha with the "Zhanlu Sword". However, King Wu had no way, and Zhan Lu Jian left on his own and flew to the side of the world's famous king, King Chu. Later, after the "Zhanlu Sword" changed its owner repeatedly, it was obtained by a famous general of the Jin Dynasty, and after hundreds of years of inheritance in the Zhou family, it was transferred to the Chinese Song Dynasty anti-gold hero "Yue Fei", since Yue Fei Fengbo Pavilion was killed, "Zhanlu Sword" was lost. "Zhanlu Sword" has spirituality, can recognize loyal ministers and good monarchs, and automatically choose the master. If there is no suitable master for himself in this world, then "Zhanlu Sword" would rather never be born, and later came to the "Ming Dynasty" in China, an ancestor of the Xu family named Xu Kui, opened the "Zhanlu Sword" when he opened the five swords, and the old lord of Xu Kui also relied on this sword to follow the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Chongba to conquer the world, and established the last Han dynasty in Chinese feudal history. And this Emperor Zhu Chongba also created the famous and prosperous "rule of Hongwu", since the death of Xu family's ancestor Xu Kui, the "Zhanlu Sword" was lost again. Unexpectedly, today Xu Sheng opened this "sword of benevolence" in the realm of opening the second sword.
Xu Sheng's third sword, the "Tai'a Sword", is also known as the "Sword of Might", and the world says that the Tai'a Sword was forged by Ou Yezi and the two great swordsmen. But this is not the case, the "Tai'a Sword" as a "mighty sword" has long existed between heaven and earth, but the "Tai'a Sword" at that time was invisible and traceless. It's just that people can't see its existence, but the sword spirit of the "Tai'a Sword" has long existed between heaven and earth, just waiting for a suitable time to condense and form, and this opportunity must be done in the right time, place, people and three ways to one, the "Tai'a Sword" sword can be completed. At that time, China was in the chaotic Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes were divided, among the many vassal states, a vassal state called the "Jin State" was the most powerful, the King of Jin at that time thought that he was most qualified to get this "Tai A Sword", but it backfired, "Tai A Sword" was condensed and formed in the very weak Chu State at that time, soon after the "Tai A Sword" was formed, the King of Jin learned the news, the conceited King Jin of course could not swallow this breath, so he wanted to force the King of Chu with the prestige of a strong country, let him hand over the "Tai A Sword". The king of Chu not only rejected the invitation of the king of Jin to ask for a sword, but also said that the "Tai'a sword" is the treasure of the town of Chu and can never be transferred to others.
After the King of Jin was rejected, he was very angry and wanted to take the opportunity to destroy the Chu State in the name of Suo Jian. There was a huge disparity in troops, and most of the cities of Chu soon fell, and the capital was also surrounded by regiments and trapped for three years. The grain and grass in the city are exhausted, the military revolution is gone, and it is in danger. On this day, the Jin State sent an envoy to issue an ultimatum: if the sword is not exchanged again, the capital of the Chu State will be captured tomorrow, and the Chu State will be erased from the map, and the "Tai'a Sword" will also be owned by the King of Jin. The king of Chu was unyielding, and ordered him to go to the city to kill the enemy tomorrow, and if the city was broken, he would use the "Tai'a Sword" to kill himself, and then he would need to pick up the "Tai'a Sword" immediately on the day of the left and right, and ride a fast horse to Taihu Lake, sink the "Tai'a Sword" to the bottom of the lake, and let it stay in Chu forever. At dawn the next day, the king of Chu ascended to the top of the city, only to see the soldiers and horses of the Jin State outside the city covering the sky and the sun, and his capital was like a flat boat in the ocean, and it was in danger of falling out at any time.
The soldiers and horses of the Jin State began to attack the city, and the shouts were like a tsunami from the mountains, and the city was about to be broken. The king of Chu held the sword in both hands and sighed: "'Tai'a Sword', 'Tai'a Sword', I will sacrifice you with my own blood today!" After speaking, the king of Chu drew his sword out of its sheath and pointed it directly at the enemy. At this moment, an unbelievable miracle appeared, only to see a majestic sword qi shot out from the "Tai A Sword", towards the Jin army outside the city to shoot, suddenly outside the city flying sand and stones, covering the sky and the sun, as if there was a beast roaring in it, the soldiers and horses of the Jin State in this sword qi that covered the sky and the sun were in chaos, after a moment the entire Jin army was annihilated, and when the sword qi dispersed, I saw the corpse of the banner on the battlefield and the bloody thousands of miles all over the ground, with the help of the "Tai A Sword", the Chu State defeated the strong enemy of the Jin State, and the King of Chu also achieved the Spring and Autumn Hegemony. After this incident, the king of Chu also asked the wise man in the country, Feng Huzi: "Why is the 'Tai'a Sword' so powerful?"
Windbeard said: "'Tai'a Sword' is a mighty sword, and the power of the heart is the true might, the king is mighty and unyielding in adversity, which is the outstanding performance of the power of the heart." It is the inner power of the king that inspires the power of the sword qi of the 'Tai'a Sword'" and after the death of the contemporary King of Chu, the monarch of the Chu State is not as good as the next generation, and the "Tai'a Sword" is nowhere to be found, and finally the "Tai'a Sword" was obtained by the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty. After obtaining the "Tai'a Sword", Qin Shi Huang conquered all countries with the power of the "Tai'a Sword", ending thousands of years of division and secession in China, and establishing the first unified feudal dynasty in Chinese history. When Qin Shi Huang was alive, he was very fond of the "Tai'a Sword" and wore it all day long. After the death of the First Emperor, the "Tai'a Sword" was buried in the underground palace of the First Emperor like many rare treasures. Later, Chu and Han competed, in order to compete with Liu Pi, who had the "Chixiao Sword", Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, dug out the underground palace of the first emperor and brought out a lot of treasures in the underground palace.
