Chapter 20: The Old Blind Man (2)
After getting Zeng Weiguo's assurance, the old man said slowly: "This flute is made of heavenly iron, you all know, about its origin, only the past generations of people have passed on orally, there is no written record, it is rumored that this flute has the ability to take people's lives thousands of miles away, but if you want to have such an ability, the piper must have three conditions, one of them: must be a woman." Second: When playing, the flute must be one, whether it is the state of mind or the technique, it must reach the realm of truth. Third: If you want to kill someone, the song played must be "Guangling San", so this flute is called Guangling Flute. Speaking of which, the old man took a sip of the teacup, took out a small cigarette pouch from his waist and lit it and smoked it, I have seen a lot of cigarette pouches, what jade mouth, ebony rod, brass pot, before the old shopkeeper Qi was alive before smoking Fushou ointment, good is this, good to smoke and hide the tobacco pouch, what white jade mouth, ivory mouth, tortoiseshell mouth, long and short, big and small, nothing to take out and fiddle with, and like to show me, but the old man's cigarette pouch, how long is a bundle, the pot is black, the cigarette stick is also black, only the cigarette holder is blood red, Under the backdrop of the black pot and black rod, it is particularly eye-catching, and the old man's smoke is thick and spewed out several times, and it spreads in this sealed conference room, but it is not choking at all, a faint aroma spreads out, even Lin Xiaoxiao, who hates the smell of smoke the most, raised his nose and smelled it, this aroma is indescribable, stronger than flowers, lighter than herbs, and the throat and eyes of the person who smells it are sweet, refreshing, and very comfortable.
Zeng Weiguo asked the old man: "Why do you have to have these three points to kill?" And why is it that such a precious thing is not recorded? The old man said: "There is no record because this thing is too precious, like burning the body with teeth, mussels with beads, no matter who gets it, it will also keep the secret, so since the birth of this flute has seen very few people, the old man is also only heard of people's words, did not see its things, it is said that the last master of this Guangling flute is the Southern Tang Dynasty master Li Yu, five generations of this Southern Tang Dynasty because of the occupation of the land of fish and rice such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang lakes, the richest man in the country, this Guangling flute is Li Yu's father Li Jing destroyed the Fujian country, from the Fujian King Yanzheng obtained, and then passed to Li Yu, When Zhao Kuangyin broke Jinling City and captured Li Yu, the flute was lost in the chaos, and how did this Lin girl get it, the old man was inconvenient to ask. As for its provenance is mostly some untrustworthy rumors, some people say that this flute is cast by the cadre Mo Ye, in my opinion, it is impossible, the cadre Mo Ye is good at swords, although this Guangling flute can also kill, but the use of fast knives and swords is completely different, you ask about the three conditions, I think it should be reversed, first of all, this "Guangling San", this murderous "Guangling San" is completely different from what we usually listen to, killing people have to blow Ji Kang's "Guangling San", when the Wei and Jin pianist Ji Kang was known for being good at playing this song, and he was based on the original version, Some improvements were added, but he did not pass on the apprentices, and was later killed by Sima Zhao and sentenced to death, but he was still calm before the punishment, Suoqin played this song, and sighed when he cut off his head:
"Guangling San" is now extinct!
This "Guangling San" is also known as "Nie Zheng's Assassination of Han Wang Song", Nie Zheng was a famous warrior of Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, the South Korean minister Yan Sui had a feud with the Korean prime minister and the Han puppet. Yan Zhongzi spent a lot of money trying to bribe Nie Zheng to assassinate Xia Ti. Nie Zheng was originally a market
"Slaughtering dogs", because he wanted to support his old mother, he refused Yan Zhongzi's generous gift. Later, Nie Zheng's mother passed away, and after burying his mother, Nie Zheng told Yan Zhongzi that he was originally a disciple of the market, and Yan Zhongzi did
"The Prime Minister of the Princes", not far away, drove to invite with a lot of money. Nie Zheng naturally wanted to repay this courtesy, so he
"It will be used for those who know it", swearing to repay Yan Zhongzi to death. Yan Zhongzi said that his enemy was Han Xiangxia.
He had always wanted to ask the Assassin to assassinate Xia Ti. But Xia Ti is the uncle of the Korean monarch, there are many clans, and the surrounding defenses are tight, so it may not be easy to succeed.
Nie Zheng immediately agreed to Yan Zhongzi's request. Nie Zhengjian went to the capital of Korea alone. After arriving in the capital, Han Xiangxia was tired and was in the house.
Although Xia Ti has a large number of guards to protect him, but Nie Zheng still assassinated Xia Ti like a bag to take things, Nie Zheng was surrounded by the guards who rushed to point his sword at himself, cut his face, gouged out his eyes, and cut his abdomen, the purpose of this is to avoid anyone recognizing himself and implicating Yan Zhongzi.
Later, Nie Zheng was violently corpsed in the city, and finally his sister Nie Rong was so grief-stricken that she was killed on the spot.
The sections of this "Guangling San" are Jingli, Han, Death, Hanzhi, Martyr's Woman, Shen Ming, Sword Throwing, Jun Trace, and Weixing, which are roughly in line with the whole process of Nie Zheng's assassination of Han Xiang.
Ji Kang modified it on the basis of the original song, making the revised "Guangling San" full of anger, if the resentful person plays, this anger will help the resentment, the two rise to the top, and finally be gathered into a murderous aura by this Guangling flute, which is why the human flute is one.
As for why it's a woman, I couldn't figure it out before, but just after touching the flute, I probably guessed one or two, there are some imperceptible very small holes on the flute, I'm afraid the flute membrane is not made of ordinary things, since it is limited to women, it should be that only a woman's feminine breath can blow another flute sound, and this flute sound is inaudible to ordinary people, but it can penetrate the ears and brains, killing people invisibly, which is like Ji Kang's "Guangling San" for the bow back, women's feminine air for the bowstring, and this flute is an arrow, The realm of the unity of man and flute is the person who shoots the arrow, and whether the arrow can be shot or not, whether it is accurate or not, completely depends on the level of the realm.
In fact, everything in the world is the same, and the quality of things depends on the person who uses them", he paused again, fiddled with the smoke pot and took a deep breath, except in the conference room
The sound of tobacco burning was silent, everyone was thinking about the old man's words, Zeng Weiguo opened his mouth several times to say something, and swallowed it back, the old man smoked for a while and raised his head and said: "I have to go" After speaking, he stood up, Zeng Weiguo hurriedly stepped forward to help, and kept the meal, the old man waved his hand and said: "No need, my little apprentice is still waiting for me to go back, and he is still bothering Chief Zeng to send me back to the same place", Zeng Weiguo immediately called someone to prepare the car, and we also stood up and followed behind to send out, when we walked past me, The old man's hand was as soft as five little snakes in my palm, and then his face changed fleetingly, when he was about to go out of the gate, the old man accidentally tripped over, a stumble, I hurriedly reached out from behind to support him, he grabbed my hand, and then nodded and thanked him and went out to get in the car and left.
Look at the watch has already passed the meal, the stomach only reacted at this time, kept gurgling, the second master pulled me to run to the restaurant, I said to go to the toilet, let him go first, in the blink of an eye, the second master has disappeared, the playground on the dust.
After entering the toilet, after making sure that there was no one else, plug in the door and slowly spread out the palm, a wooden card jumped into the eye, this wooden card is two circles smaller than the cigarette box, inch thick, black and mushy as if it has been burned, a black and red rope is worn on the top, it looks like it should be hung around the neck, the wooden card is engraved with some incomprehensible patterns, it seems to be a Taoist charm, the whole card is oily and black, it seems that it has been some years, what does the old man secretly give me this?
Who is he?
