I have to admire the papermaking technology of the ancestors, seven or eight hundred years later, the ink color of the portrait in front of me is still the same as that day, the color is gorgeous, and the person in the painting is still lifelike. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The person in the painting is a man, I saw him wearing a robe, smiling on his face, quite chivalrous, and the mountain stream in the narration of the painting, the stream seems to be the same as the real thing.

Wait a minute! Why is this person so familiar!

Only then did I react and couldn't help but let out an "ah".

Brother Haojie on the side was also amazed, he looked at me while looking at the portrait, and said, "Xiaohe, this senior looks quite similar to you!" “

The old patriarch began to explain, "That's right, what is painted in this portrait is the ancestor Li Ling, the eleventh patriarch of our Li family!" ”

Seeing that we were all listening, the old patriarch sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "The origin of the matter, I'm afraid it will start from the Tang Dynasty more than 1,400 years ago, the story is very long, let's go out and talk about it....."

After listening to the old patriarch's words, we put away the portrait, put it back in its place, and walked out of the side hall to the backyard.

Before leaving, I took a special look at Xiao Rou's spiritual position......

Xiaorou, it turns out that you are Li Ling's wife, no wonder you will always protect me.

In the backyard, there is a mountain stream on the mountain in the distance, and there is a small pavilion in the river below.

I don't usually drink tea, but when I take a sip of water, I feel very sweet!

It's really a paradise, unpolluted by the slightest bit of cloudy popularity.

After the old patriarch tasted the tea, he began to tell us the story of the Li family:

"The Li family has been here for 1,300 years, and at that time it was already the world of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi, and the power of the Empress Wu in the court was growing day by day."

"The ancestor Li Chunfeng said in his early years in the Taizong period, "The third generation of the Tang Dynasty died, and the heroine Wu took his place." The prophecy was suppressed and persecuted by the Empress Wu, so he chose to go into hiding, and by observing the number of days and measuring the dragon vein, Li Chunfeng came here all the way.

Speaking of this, the old patriarch raised his hand and pointed to the mountain stream: "There is a nameless ancient cave behind it, and some people call it the 'Immortal Tomb', Patriarch Li Chunfeng went inside for a while, and this time he entered, it was three years. ”

"When the Taoist boy next to him thought that he had been trapped inside, one day at midnight, I saw a colorful light emitting from the cave, and Li Chunfeng walked out of it, and when he came out again, his hair was already white."

"There seems to be some adventure inside, Li Chunfeng ordered two Taoist children to stay here, and then hurried down the mountain, four months later, he brought back an elder of the same age, this person is Yuan Tiangang!"

At this time, outside the mountain, it was already the Empress Wu who was involved in politics, and the local officials naturally made every effort to inspect Li Chunfeng's whereabouts in order to tie up with the so-called "Queen of Heaven". ”

"In order to seek the truth and protect himself, Li Chunfeng ordered people to notify his descendants and clansmen, so that they could all move here, build villages and shrines, reclaim wasteland, and reproduce here."

As for the two ancestors, they entered the cave and never came out, but Li Chunfeng had a posthumous instruction before leaving: "This is the throat of the Chinese dragon vein, and the cave hides the secret of the origin of China, and the Li clan needs to guard it for generations, and no one is allowed to enter this cave!" “

"Since then, the children of my Li clan have remembered the ancestral teachings, and for more than 1,400 years, they have experienced several robberies, and they have been nearly wiped out three times, but they have never migrated half a step!" Speaking of this, the old patriarch looked arrogant.

I understand his feelings, and I have an admiration for this family from the bottom of my heart.

An ancestral precept is easy to keep for a while, but difficult to keep for a lifetime, not to mention that people have kept it for 1,400 years!

Soon, the old patriarch got back to business, and after taking a sip of tea and moistening his throat, he looked at me and said, "And the story of Patriarch Li Ling began at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty. "Li Ling, whose name is Jiqing, was born in the desert in 1242 AD, and is the eleventh patriarch of the Li family."

"Because Li Ling was born to his father in love with a woman of different races, he committed a taboo in the clan, so he had a very difficult time when he was young."

"But his talent in stargazing and divination is the best in the whole clan, plus when he was a teenager, he met the prince of the Song Dynasty and the Lu family, a big family in the south of the Yangtze River, and later the prince inherited his brother's unification and became the emperor, and with the help of the emperor and the Lu family, Li Ling sat on the position of patriarch."

"As soon as he ascended to the throne, Li Ling changed the ancestral training that the Li family must not ask about the world, although he knew that the mandate of heaven could not be violated, but he still led the elite of the clan to guard the rivers and mountains of China, and at first he won some battles with the way of stargazing, but no one could go against the current of the mandate of heaven, and finally failed to prevent Mongolia from dominating the world!"

Hearing this, recalling the illusion of that day, I couldn't help but feel a little excited for a while, Li Ling, what a big hero with the world in mind!

However, I was still a little puzzled, and I couldn't help asking: "So Li Ling is a big hero, why did he encounter so many unjust souls after he died?" And these unjust souls don't look like Mongols, but like ordinary Han people, or the old, weak, sick, and defenseless! “

The old patriarch smiled and waved his hand, signaling me not to worry, and continued to explain: "History is often written by the victors, so the history of the Southern Song Dynasty is not what you see. “

"The Southern Song Dynasty should have ended from 1127 to 1281 A.D., and its demise was not the Battle of Yashan in 1279."

In 1279, the Battle of Yashan was directly related to the survival of the Southern Song Dynasty, so it was also a decisive battle between the Song and Yuan dynasties. In the end of the war, the Yuan army won more with less, and the Song army was completely annihilated. When the Southern Song Dynasty destroyed the country, Lu Xiufu committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea with the young emperor Zhao Yu on his back, and many loyal ministers followed him, and 100,000 soldiers and civilians jumped into the sea to die in the country. ”

"According to the history books, after this battle, the fall of the Zhao and Song dynasties also meant the complete destruction of the remnants of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Meng and Yuan Dynasty finally unified the whole of China, and China was conquered by the northern nomads for the first time."

The fall of the Southern Song Dynasty marked the end of the classical era in China, and some people believe that this naval battle marked the decline and fall of Chinese civilization in the classical sense, and there is a saying that "there is no China after Yashan". ”

After talking about the background, the old patriarch suddenly changed his words: "However, in fact, there is still a place that has not been broken by the Mengyuan army, the soldiers and civilians here rely on the mountains behind them, the rivers in front of the city, and the strong city, so they actually resisted the siege of Mengyuan." ”

"This is Diaoyu City!"

"As early as 1259, Meng Ge Khan personally led 40,000 troops to Diaoyu City, Meng Ge sent people to recruit surrender, Song Zhi Hezhou Wang Jian sternly refused and killed the envoy, Meng Ge began to attack Diaoyu City......
