Chapter 24: The Golden Serpent Hide
Because the scene in the Gao Family Spiritual Hall still had lingering palpitations for Cheng Guan Yi, Cheng Guan Yi strongly asked to live in the side room of the Wu Tang. Gao Yunliang shook his head helplessly, and laughed secretly in his heart, so much so that he was a little timid, if he wanted to enter Wuyun Mountain, he would not have to be scared to pee.
Fortunately, there will be something to discuss with my father in a while, and it is indeed inconvenient for Cheng Yifan to live in the inner hall. So, Gao Yunliang asked Heizi to find a side room next to Cheng Yifan to live in, so as to take care of Cheng Yifan, and he went to his father's study.
As soon as Gao Yunliang walked into the study, he found that Gao Feng and the Gao family's grandfather were also there, as if the three of them were sitting together discussing something.
"You're back, we've been waiting for you for a long time." Gao Tian spoke first.
Gao Yunliang had already expected that his father would wait for him in the study, but he didn't expect his grandfather and second uncle to be there. But if you think about it, it's normal.
"Such a strange thing happened in the Gao Family Spiritual Hall this afternoon, it's strange that they aren't waiting for themselves here!" Gao Yunliang secretly grinded in his heart, and replied, "Yes, Dad." ”
"Grandpa, second uncle, you are all here." Gao Yunliang walked in and bowed and greeted.
"We're all waiting for you, knowing you have a bunch of questions to ask. Sit down, there's something we need to know. Gao Tian said to Gao Yunliang.
"Dad, what's going on in the mourning hall today, why is there a sudden strong wind?" After Gao Yunliang found a stool and sat down, he asked.
"Yun Liang, do you remember those two portraits of our Gao Family Spiritual Hall." Grandpa Gao asked.
"This naturally remembers that you said that they are the benefactors of the Gao family and the teachers of the ancestors of the Gao family." Gao Yunliang replied to his grandfather's question.
"Think about it again...... How similar is this portrait to the Cheng Yifan brothers? Grandpa Gao said inductively.
Gao Yunliang thought back carefully, when he first met Cheng Yifan in college, he had a very familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it, so he just thought it was just a love affair with each other.
Later, after being together for a long time, I forgot about it, after all, it was just a portrait, no more than a living person, not so deep. Now that I think about it, this portrait is a little similar to Cheng Yifan. It's just that the gas expression is completely different, although he is the same handsome, but Cheng Yifan lacks that kind of masculinity and perseverance, and if you don't look closely, it's hard for people to associate the two together.
"It's a little similar, but the aura is completely different." Thinking of this, Gao Yunliang replied truthfully.
Gao Yunliang's father, Gao Tian, stood up at this time, paced slowly in the hall for a few steps, and said while pacing: "The surname of the person on this painting is Yuan Mingchengzhi, who is the mentor of the two ancestors of the Gao family, and that woman is the wife of Yuan Gong, surnamed Chen Mingqing. ”
Gao Tian paused for a moment, as if he didn't know how to continue. After thinking for a few seconds, he continued: "The grandmother of the Gao family is surnamed He, and her name is Tieshou. He family was very powerful in this area at that time, there were thousands of people under the He family plus the nursing home, and they were all good at using drugs, and they were once a drug family that deterred one side, and your grandmother He Tieshou was the head of the He family. ”
Gao Yunliang was stunned, how could he think that these names were so familiar, and the storyline seemed to have been seen somewhere. "Oh..."Gao Yunliang suddenly realized, and then laughed and said: "Dad, you won't be telling me Grandpa Jin's martial arts novels, hahaha." ”
At this time, Gao Feng came over and patted Gao Yunliang on the back of his head and said, "Stinky boy, do you think we are so idle, do you want to tell martial arts stories here at night?" Then he continued to tell Gao Tian's story: "In fact, in our generation, these things of the ancestors of the Gao family are not a secret, and many people in the town know about them. It's just that more and more people moved out later, and fewer and fewer people talked about these legends. ”
"Mr. Jin once passed by this place back then, maybe he heard some legend and was inspired to complete that book?"
And some of his plots are still somewhat similar to this legend, such as "Golden Snake Lingzang". ”
"Wasn't the Golden Snake Lingzang presented to King Chuang by Yuan Chengzhi?" Gao Yunliang said with a smile.
Pat, pat, "You kid want to talk nonsense again, I'll slap you with one palm." Gao Feng patted Gao Yunliang on the back of the head, made a gesture of splitting his palm, and said, "Big brother, I can't go on, you son, you can talk about it yourself, haha." Gao Feng pushed and laughed.
"Yunliang, don't make trouble, listen well." Gao Tianyan glanced at Gao Yunliang and said:
This Yuan Gong is a native of the coastal area, and his father is a very famous businessman, and later offended the powerful people in the court. At that time, it happened to be a time of war, and the powerful people of the DPRK and China confiscated Yuan's house and exiled him for the crime of collaborating with the enemy and rebellion. Yuan Chengzhi was rescued by Yuan's father on the way to exile, and then practiced martial arts in Shushan, and when he grew up, he learned from his father's old friend that the family surnamed Yuan was exiled to Yunnan-Guizhou Province, and he embarked on the road to find his relatives alone.
Back then, Yuan Gong had a good martial arts and a chivalrous heart, which was very similar to Mr. Jin's Yuan Chengzhi. On the way to Yungui, Yuan Gong happened to meet Chen Qing, who was disguised as a woman looking for his father, and the two came together because of their similar personalities and both came to find relatives.
Coincidentally, Chen Qing's father was also a coastal clan, and he was a treasure hunter with excellent martial arts and Taoism. He once hid in Yungui Province for the spirit of the green snake, and then disappeared in Yungui.
Later, Yuan Chengzhi and Chen Qing found the bones of their father Chen Jun and the "Golden Snake Spirit Treasure" in the Yunnan-Guizhou Mountain. Yuan Chengzhi even learned a body of skills and Taoism from it. "Golden Snake Lingzang" was originally the wealth accumulated by the Miao people, and the He family at that time was the guardian of this wealth, and the details were somewhat similar to Mr. Jin's He Tieshou.
He Tieshou, the head of the He family, because he admired Yuan Gong's personality and ability, was rescued by Yuan Chengzhi and Chen Qing many times when he was searching for treasures in Wuyun Mountain, and later worshipped him as a teacher.
At that time, the war was not over, Yuan Chengzhi wanted to relieve the people from fire and water, so he took some treasures, his wife Chen Qing, and his apprentice He Tie into the Central Plains. After entering the Central Plains, they made a group of friends with similar aspirations. Along the way, he fought chivalry, saved the wounded, and left a reputation everywhere.
Later, as written in the novel, he took refuge in the rebels, and gave all the treasures he brought to the rebels, who knew that the rebels were also burned and looted after attacking the city. Yuan Gong was extremely disappointed, took his wife Chen Qing, and a group of former friends, and escaped back to the deep mountains of Yunnan and Guizhou to guard the "Golden Snake Spirit Hide", and made a false impression of traveling to other countries to the outside world.
Gao Yunliang seemed to relive the "Bixue Sword", and after listening to Gao's father tell the story of a book, he asked, "What does this have to do with Cheng Yifan?" ”
"Don't worry, don't worry." Gao Tian continued to speak unhurriedly: After Yuan Gong escaped back to Yunnan-Guizhou Province, he lived in this Wuyun Mountain with his wife and friends. At that time, the people who lived in seclusion with Yuan Gong mainly included the Gao family, the Li family, the Jin family, the Ye family, the Zhao family, and the He family who lived in the depths of Yungui Mountain.
At that time, Yuan Gong was afraid that the righteous army and the imperial court would not give up, so he sent people to find him. So this Wuyun City was laid here. Wuyun City is inhabited by a part of each of the five great families, and guards the five gates.
According to the ancestors, this Five Cloud City was laid out by the Zhao family at the time of Yuan Gong's order. This city is equivalent to a gateway to Wuyun Mountain, and it is equivalent to an eye of Wuyun Mountain. This formation is very wonderful, and it can echo each other through some kind of connection. In other words, people in the mountains can clearly know what is happening outside the mountain, and the people outside the mountain can also know the situation in the mountains in some way. It is equivalent to the monitoring and wireless communication of modern technology.
And our Gao family, because grandmother He Tieshou is the beloved disciple of Yuan Gong and the head of the He family, so the Gao family guards the most important passage into the mountain.
This Yuan Gong was also under the guard of the five great families, and lived peacefully in Wuyun Mountain for decades.
Speaking of this, Father Gao suddenly stopped pacing, but sat back in his position and took a sip of tea. Pondered: "What did you expect one night more than three hundred years ago. ”
