Chapter 39: The History of the Xuan Family
Why should you choose Hsu Brothers?
Why did you kill Sheng Yutang and choose to leave Sheng Zitai?
Why does Xuan Tong take so much care of Sheng Zitai?
Why......
There are so many whys, and it all started hundreds of years ago.
"How did the Xuan family spread out? How was the Jade Casting Society established? At the end of the day, it all started in Kocuoden. Xuan Tong looked up at the top of the stone house, "I guess you must know about the new Miao people, right?" The Xuan family is part of the new Miao people, the Xuan family came to the Miao land to avoid pursuit, because the Xuan family belonged to the broken gold gate offended too many peers - the disciples of the broken gold gate relied on the wonderful knife skills to compete around, and formed countless enemies, and finally one day those enemies united together and decided to eradicate the broken gold gate, plus the broken gold gate was not united at that time, the disciples looked down on each other, and they all thought that they were the first swordsmen in the world. So the enemies came up with a clever trick, that is, to divide and attack, one by one. β
The earliest rudder of Jiangnan Road, where the Xuan family was located, is today's Hunan boundary, close to the area of Dongting Lake. The founder of the Jade Casting Society, Xuan Wudu, was the treasurer of the Jiangnan Province Helmsman at the time, and in today's words, he is even the manager of the finance department of a branch of a group company. Xuan Wudu is an extremely smart person, and he also pays great attention to the investigation of the news, when he found out that for a period of time, the disciples of the broken golden gate disappeared mysteriously, he realized that things were not good, and began to spend a lot of money on the rivers and lakes to buy news, and finally determined that the enemy of the broken golden gate over the years had formed an alliance for revenge, so he reported the matter to the helmsman at that time, but the helmsman who relied on his strong martial arts did not think so, and put on a look of wanting to fight to the death with the enemy.
Xuan Wudu knows, no matter how high your kung fu is, you have to use your brains, the enemies have now grasped the weakness of the broken golden gate, and if this continues, within half a year, the Jiangnan Dao rudder will be wiped out. So Xuan Wudu gathered a batch of corpses, the number of which was just the same as the number of Xuan family, and he kept them in the cave ice cellar of the Jiangnan Dao rudder, waiting for the day when the enemies launched a general attack.
Finally, the enemies came to the door, and of course the strategy they used was an extremely funny strategy, but any fool could see it - hand over the challenge and ask the helmsman to decide the winner in a contest three days later, so as to decide the fate of the future.
The invincible helmsman and his disciples who thought they were all the first swordsmen in the world, arrogantly believed that the enemy family was looking for death, and under the premise that the final persuasion was fruitless, Xuan Wudu moved out the corpses overnight and placed them in the Xuanjia village where the Xuan family lived, creating the illusion that dozens of people from the Xuan family had died, and at the same time let his son lead the family to evacuate to the Wuling Mountains, and he stayed and waited for the most tragic result.
As Xuan Wudu expected, late that night, the enemies divided into ten ways and attacked the ten disciple gathering points under the rudder, and it was just a feint, the helmsman was furious, and immediately assigned reinforcements, this reinforcement rudder was empty inside, and the group of main attacking teams selected by the enemies directly entered the rudder, and captured the helmsman alive in less than dozens of rounds.
Standing on the top of the hill and seeing the rudder on fire, he immediately set fire to Xuanjia Village, and then hurried to catch up with his family, and then embarked on the road of escape.
When Xuan Tong said this, he shook his head and said: "Actually, Xuan Wudu knows very well that those little tricks can't deceive the enemy, and can only play a role in delaying time." β
Although none of the people present spoke and seemed to be listening carefully, they actually had their own calculations in their hearts. Sheng Zitai wanted to figure out what was going on, and at the same time knew that he had to leave this place immediately, otherwise it would be over, and he might never be able to leave this ghost place again, but whenever he looked at the woods outside the stone house, he would have a feeling of being about to suffocate, which was a mental illness he fell from when he was young, and it has not been cured, which is why he always hates going into the mountains.
Mu Tianjian's mind was in chaos, he knew that he was being used, and Yuan Zhenba, who seemed to be the only one around him who could be trusted, could no longer rely on him, for a monster like him, who only had the eldest prince Sheng Yutang to trust, his situation was like a beast locked in an iron cage.
Fan Meng and He Yuejia stood behind Xuan Tong, not daring to look directly into the eyes of torture and He Chenxue.
Xuan Tong said again: "Xuan Wudu led the whole family to flee into the Wuling Mountains, that is, in the mountains of Xiangxi, the life of the Miao people was quite stable at that time, but because of some strategies of the imperial court at that time, I was worried that they would unite to rebel, and deliberately divided several patriarchs, which was later called Tusi, Xuan Wudu because he was the treasurer, plus the relationship between the gold and silver mines in the early years of the Broken Golden Gate, the relationship with the Miao people was very unusual, and Xuan Wudu also used the so-called official business of the Broken Golden Gate to establish his own personal relationship, So after he brought his people to Miaodi, the Miao people at that time were very welcome, but the good times did not last long, and half a year later, the enemy still came to the door. β
At this time, the torture technique asked: "Why do those enemies have to kill the Broken Golden Gate?" β
"Arrogance and tyranny, these four words are enough to sum up the broken Golden Gate of the year." Xuan Tong frowned and said, "The competition in the rivers and lakes, most of the time is to the point, but their competition is not to divide the victory or defeat, but to decide life and death, the broken gold knife method is different from other knife methods, it is very simple, it is fast and accurate three points, there is no fixed routine, because the routine knife method, you can always find a way to crack it, but the broken gold knife method does not have a fixed routine, the most ridiculous thing is that the first to create the broken gold gate, the one who created the broken gold knife method is a butcher! And the enemies did not let go of the Xuan family, it was entirely because the Xuan family was notoriously smart, not only the treasurer, but also the advisor around the helmsman and the door master, if there was no Xuan family, the Broken Golden Gate would not have developed so strong in a hundred years, of course, and the most important point, the Xuan family and the Broken Golden Gate master family are married, and the reason for the marriage is because of the green eyes of the Xuan family! β
Xuan Tong finally said the point, at this time He Chenxue and He Yuejia also subconsciously glanced at each other, Xuan Tong looked at them respectively, and said: "The bloodline of the Xuan family is very strange, I don't know from which generation there is a green pupil, but the real green pupil is the so-called yin and yang eyes, to put it bluntly, one is a farsighted eye, the other is a myopic eye, the farsighted eye can see a long distance, and can see clearly, and the myopic eye is like a magnifying glass, you can see things that people can't see clearly, from a medical point of view, It's a physical disability, but in ancient times, it was basically a miracle. The owner of the Broken Golden Gate just wants to have this miracle forever, so he has always maintained a marriage with the Xuan family, in other words, when the Broken Golden Gate faced destruction, in fact, the Broken Golden Gate was equivalent to the Xuan family, but the Xuan family was divided into more than a dozen small families at that time. β
Tan Tong heard this, and whispered in the back: "I'll go, isn't that equivalent to a marriage between close relatives later?" Aren't all born fools? β
Yan Gang bumped into Tan Tong and told him not to speak, Tan Tong covered his mouth and hid behind Samuchuan.
Xuan Tong glanced at Tan Tong, nodded and said: "This brother is right, that's pretty much what he means, so there are many deformities in the Xuan family, but there are also geniuses, and Xuan Wudu is one of them." β
Because of the double pupils, the Xuan family has an advantage in martial arts that others do not have, and there is another saying in the legend - if the double pupils are really used, then the person with the double pupils will have the same vision as ordinary people, and only when they need to have the ability to see far and near.
Of course, this is just a legend.
"In fact, the legendary Xuan family's talent for martial arts is just a rumor released by the Broken Golden Gate, which makes other sects on the rivers and lakes afraid of the Broken Golden Gate. Xuan Tong shook his head and looked at his hands, "However, the Xuan family delved into antique jade, and had an extraordinary study of these, and even helped the imperial court identify some high-quality private hanging money, which also made the Xuan family face assassins who sneaked into Miao Di from time to time after fleeing to Miaodi, so they had to leave the book to ask the court for help, hoping to get their support, and the imperial court at that time, in order to avoid the recurrence of the sect of Broken Jinmen, which led to chaos in the world, put forward a condition, that is, the Xuan family could not leave Miaodi, and the Xuan family in order to preserve the bloodline, Agreed to this condition. β
Three years later, the imperial court began to use force to intervene in the fighting of the Jianghu people, and also ordered the liquidation of some states and counties where the Jianghu people gathered, causing those enemies to realize that if they continued to pursue and kill, they would face a catastrophe, and then the alliance of the enemies collapsed under the pressure of the imperial court, and the Xuan family also integrated into the Miao land at the same time and became the so-called new Miao people.
Hearing this, Xingshu looked around and said, "You mean to say that this basin and this stone house we are in are all from the Xuan family. β
"That's right! This is the territory of the Xuan family! Xuan Tong pointed to his feet and said, "The Xuan family took root from here, and the Jade Casting Society also started here, the reason why the Xuan family was able to establish the Jade Casting Society was entirely because they found Jiacuo Fort, and found some records left by the ancient Miao people on the periphery of Jiacuo Fort, and improved their knowledge of jade through those records, and then the Jade Casting Society was born!" β
Xingshu shook his head: "Since that's the case, why do you want us to go to the Jiacuo Palace?" Isn't this a waste of work? β
Xuan Tong smiled, looked at Sheng Zitai and said, "Don't forget, it's not me who asked you to find the Jiacuo Palace, it's Sheng Feng of Heyumen!" β
"No, it's you!" Torture looked at Xuan Tong and said, "These are your previous layouts. β
"Yes, the layout, just like the layout of the Xuan family's Jade Casting Society back then. The Xuan family knows very well that if the disciples are all equipped with martial arts, rather than being proficient in jade skills, the final result will be the same as that of the broken golden gate, so, in addition to the Xuan family themselves, strict disciples practice martial arts, even if they want to practice, at best, it is just self-defense and fitness, and learn some faΓ§ade kung fu, such as basic Shaolin boxing, etc., firstly, it will not cause trouble externally, and secondly, internally, it will not pose a threat to the Xuan family itself. Xuan Tong clenched his fists, "However, everything actually stems from the fact that the Xuan family fled from the Guannai and came to the Northeast not because they were willing, but because they were betrayed by their former ally, and this ally is Heyumen!" β
These facts that Xuan Tong said surprised the people present, who can know the events of the past hundred years except Xuan Tong? Just like Xuan Tong does not say, no one knows that in the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, the Jade Casting Society and the Heyumen were the most famous sects in the world focusing on jade craftsmanship, and they would never intervene in the battles of the rivers and lakes.
"You should all know about the Qianjia Miao uprising, right? In that uprising, in fact, the Jade Casting Society did not intervene, and it can even be said that it rejected some of the funding requests made by the Miao people at that time, after all, the Jade Casting Society has always paid attention to maintaining a good relationship with the government of the current dynasty. But what the Jade Casting Society didn't expect was that the ill-intentioned Heyumen privately instigated the Miao people to drive away the people of the Casting Jade Society, saying that they didn't talk about morality, and the Miao people took them in back then, so they didn't repay the favor, and now they still maintain a close relationship with the imperial court. Xuan Tong let out a long sigh, "At that time, the Jade Casting Society, maybe it was because the comfortable life had passed for too long, and it was no longer so cautious, and it also trusted its allies too much, torture, you should remember what Fan Junyi said, right?" What can blind trust lead to? β
The torture technique nodded slightly, and Xuan Tong said again: "In the face of the coercion of the uprising Miao people, the Casting Jade Society had no choice but to take out some of the money, who knows, Heyumen has been waiting in secret, and then Heyumen informed the Qing court of the news, the Qing court was furious, and ordered the extermination of the Casting Jade Society, since then, the Xuan family left Miaodi and embarked on the road of escape again, and the disciples were scattered all over the country, Heyumen took the opportunity to grow, and at the same time looked for Jiacuo Fort, but there was no result, As a result, the Heyumen began to search for the Xuan family and the disciples of the Jade Casting Society who knew the secrets of the Jiacuo Fort. β
The Xuan family continued to flee until the end of the Qing Dynasty, when the revolutionaries rose, and the Xuan family was protected, but during this period, there were many people in the Xuan family who were brutally murdered by Heyumen and the Qing court, and the number of people who were executed by Ling Chi reached 8, and the number of beheadings on the street reached more than 40 people, of which no less than 100 people were assassinated and tortured.
A huge family was almost completely extinct in less than two hundred years, and by the end of the Qing Dynasty, when the Xuan family was ready to leave the customs, there were only 12 people left in the entire family.
"12 people!" Although there was a smile on Xuantong's face, tears slipped down her face, "A family of hundreds of people, which should have grown in two hundred years, is only 12 people left!" These 12 beggar-like people are sitting on a lot of wealth, and they hope to exchange money for the protection of the Republic of China government, but they still forget that most of the time, the so-called allies and partners are the kind of people who can share hardships and hardships. The Xuan family has been trembling and waiting for the world to be peaceful, the warlords are fighting, the revolutionary army is going to the Northern Expedition, and finally seeing that the fight is about to end, the April 12 incident in Shanghai has declared the world in chaos, a few years later, the 918 incident, the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, by that time, Heyumen has been very strong, the Jianghu sect! They have a very good relationship with some officials in the government of the Republic of China, but they still want to find the Jiacuo Palace, so they designed the people who wronged the Jade Casting Society to collude with the Japanese, and they are traitors and lackeys! Both the Central Command and the Military Command began to attack the Xuan family, but they had no choice but to flee outside the Guan, didn't they say that we were the lackeys of the Japanese? All right! Let's go to Manchukuo! β
Xingshu frowned: "The Xuan family took refuge in the Japanese? β
"Torture! Although the Xuan family was cornered, they also knew that they could do anything, and they must not be traitors! Xuan Tong shook his head and said, "We are just taking refuge, why did my grandfather keep looking for a cave to sit in and hide, in fact, he didn't want the Xuan family to disappear completely, we had no way but to hide." β
The torture technique knew that Xuan Tong was going to get to the point, that is, when was Xuan Tong laid out in this situation now, and while he felt terrible, he couldn't help but sincerely admire Xuan Tong's cleverness, and the details he thought about were extremely exquisite.
Xuan Tong didn't speak at this time, just glanced around, and said with a smile: "You're all waiting for me to uncover the final mystery, right?" However, by now you should understand why I set up this game, for the simple reason that it is because ......"
"Revenge!" Sheng Zitai blurted out, "You're because of revenge!" You set up this game in order to take revenge on Heyumen! You know that my dad is old, and sooner or later a new master will be elected, so you are going to kill my eldest brother and me, so that the Heyumen group of dragons will be leaderless, you are very powerful, but I will not let you succeed, I believe, the others here will not either, and now the only ones who can stand on your side are the two people behind you! β
Sheng Zitai said and glared at Fan Meng and He Yuejia, and the two were silent.
Xingshu turned his head to look at Sheng Zitai: "Little boy, don't be so excited, things are not as simple as you think, aren't you strange now?" Not surprising why he didn't kill you? He easily killed the three Xu brothers and your eldest brother, to kill you, it is just a matter of a snap of a finger, I have fought with him, if he does his best, the best result for those of us present is to die with him. β
"Torture! You're underestimating me! Sheng Zitai gritted his teeth and said, "He didn't kill me, just because he wanted to keep me and make me miserable!" β
"Nope." Xingshu shook his head, "Little boy, if I'm not mistaken, he wants to support you as the master of the sect, wants you to change Heyumen, and wants you to end the sins of Heyumen." β
Sheng Zitai looked at the torture technique suspiciously, he didn't understand what the torture technique was talking about at all.
Xingshu took a deep breath and said: "Let me say my speculation first, this speculation starts from many years ago, when the former four major workers of the Jade Casting Society sent the woman named Duan Xiaodi to the senior Xuan who was sitting in the cave, this woman is He Yuejia and He Chenxue's mother, her biological mother, and also the mother of Sheng Zi Tai Shenggongzi, little boy, do you remember what your mother looks like?" Remember her name? If nothing else, your mother's surname is Duan, but her name isn't a small saucer, right? β
Sheng Zitai's lips trembled slightly, and he said for a long time: "How do you know?" Only my dad and I know about it! β
"Sure enough......" Xingshu looked at Xuan Tong, "Actually, I'm not too sure, I completely pieced together some fragmented clues, first of all, after Duan Xiaodi gave birth to He Yuejia and He Chenxue, she disappeared mysteriously, where did she go?" Why did she run? No matter what, it is impossible for the former four chief workers to poison her, this is clear to the seniors, and Duan Xiaodie must also be clear, so there is no need for her to run, there is a reason why she wants to leave, and what is the reason? I think something must have happened in the days when she went to sit in the cave and spend time with Xuan's seniors. β
Xuan Tong didn't speak, nodded and said: "You said most things right, but you said one thing wrong, I think, in your speculation, you must think that Duan Xiaodi disappeared after giving birth to a child according to my instructions, right?" β
"No!" Torture shook his head, "I did think so at first, but then ruled out this speculation, because you didn't know she was pregnant at the time, only a few days, how can you be sure?" From the future, the kind of surprise you felt when you saw He Yuejia and He Chenxue's sisters, you can infer that some things are unexpected by you, such as saying that you have twin daughters. β
He Yuejia looked at He Chenxue, while He Chenxue, who was standing beside the torture technique, looked directly at Xuan Tong and looked at her elderly father.
