Before the Republic of China, the Ou family was the landlord of Hushan Village, a small village in the countryside of Taihang Mountain, HB Province.

The Ou family passed on poems and books, but the ancestral training required the disciples of the Ou family not to be officials or businessmen, so they could only teach, and set up a private school in the countryside, which was passed down from generation to generation, and took this as the main student, plus the tax of the land, but also did not worry about food and clothing.

In addition, the Ou family takes benevolence and righteousness as the family motto, so they have been friendly with their neighbors for generations, and unless there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, life is real.

However, during the Republic of China, the peaceful life of the Ou family was broken, a small battle in three days, a big battle in ten days, fortunately, the village where the Ou family is located is far away from the prosperous area, although it was not affected by the war, but all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are overwhelming the entire Hushan Village, so the villagers of Hushan Village decided to move into Taihang Mountain to avoid the war.

After several years in the mountains, when I went out of the mountain again, but when people did it at home, disaster came from heaven, and the RB people came, and when they searched for grain and grass, they accidentally found the village they built in the mountains, and the Ou family became a good citizen from then on.

However, Ou Yan's grandfather was unwilling to be humiliated, and after hiding the family's collection of books, he fled into Taihang Mountain and entered the eight-way car, which was regarded as entering the organization and abandoning the pen from Rong, but he still adhered to the rules left by his ancestors, that is, he was not an official, so he was a soldier for more than ten years, and in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Ou Yan's grandfather, who had finished the war, retired from the army and returned to his hometown, but he did not expect to be almost regarded as a landlord class.

Then Ou Yan's grandfather began to find out the collection of books he had hidden back then, married a wife and had children.

Then there is the birth, growth, reading, and learning of Grandpa Ou Yan......

During the period, the Ou family was turned out of the old accounts again, criticized as the landlord class, and because there were thousands of ancient books in the house, they were included in the business of breaking the four olds, and all the rare books in the family were burned.

Ou Yan's grandfather also fell ill because of this, even Ou Yan's father grew up in such an environment since he was a child, and he fell into a weak and sickly body.

After the reform and opening up, Ou Yan's grandfather was finally ordained, and Ou Yan's grandfather and father became people's teachers, and began to transcribe those ancient books handed down from the family with their memories.

In the nineties, Ou Yan's grandfather finally couldn't hold on anymore and passed away after writing the last single ancient book.

At that time, it was really good that Ou Yan's father and mother had just tied the knot, and it could be said that the happy event and funeral were done together.

Three years later, Ou Yan's birth finally made the Ou family have a hint of joy, and life seems to be developing in the best direction.

But he didn't expect to encounter a bolt from the blue, the state-owned enterprise was reformed, and Ou Yan's mother was laid off, and the burden of life suddenly fell on the shoulders of Ou Yan's father.

With the meager salary of a township teacher, it is simply not enough for the three people in the family to live in.

Therefore, under the pressure of life, Ou Yan's father found a few ancient books that survived after hiding at that time, and then found a buyer to sell an ancient book, after solving the urgent need of the Ou family's economy, he decided to go to the southern FJ region to go to the sea to do business and earn living needs.

With his family history, a year later, Ou Yan's father went from a small merchant and hawker who collected rags to the shopkeeper of a Sibao Zhai.

With the feel of often touching genuine ancient books at home when he was a child, coupled with his understanding of ancient books, Ou Yan entered the antique world from a ragged vendor, and then slowly opened a store specializing in ancient paintings, ancient books, and the four treasures of the study - Sibao Zhai.

Sibaozhai has always been doing well, and Ou Yan has also been in this store since he was a child, playing with pen, ink, paper, inkstone, reading ancient books, and listening to it......

However, unexpectedly, when Ou Yan was more than ten years old, disaster came, and Ou Yan's father took a big risk and borrowed money to buy a jade wrench.

Unexpectedly, the arrival of this jade wrench became the beginning of the destruction of the Ou family.

Because he bought this jade wrench, and then he couldn't sell it, which caused Ou Yan's father's antique store to become insolvent, so he sold Sibaozhai and all the ancient books in the family and finally paid off the huge debt, so the antique shop closed down like this.

Then, Ou Yan's father's body collapsed due to this reason, and he couldn't hold it and fell ill.

Therefore, the family's small savings were all smashed in the hospital as a matter of course, and the pressure of life suddenly pressed on Ou Yan's mother, a gentle and weak woman.

The woman who can be selected by Ou Yan's grandfather and favored by Ou Yan's father always has the air of a lady, gentle but not weak, strong but not unsympathetic.

Therefore, Ou Yan's mother's weak shoulders provoked the housework and life of the entire Ou family.

Zou Ran jumped out of a superior living environment, Ou Yan was very uncomfortable for a while, just like the old saying: from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift!

However, Ou Yan and his mother were not defeated by life, they persevered, and Ou Yan's mother finally supported the whole family by doing odd jobs.

At this time, there was bad news, which became the last straw that overwhelmed the Ou family.

Ou Yan's father died.

Suddenly hearing this bad news, Ou Yan's mother couldn't hold it anymore all of a sudden, and then fell ill.

Subsequently, the disease SARS came, Ou Yan's mother was too weak to hide from it all of a sudden, and Ou Yan's mother finally broke free from the suffering of the world and died.

The death of his father and mother made Ou Yan heartbroken, and the helplessness of life almost made Ou Yan crazy.

Ou Yan began to become silent, but Ou Yan was still not beaten by life. The privileged life of his youth and his father's words and deeds made Ou Yan know what perseverance is and what it is

Subsequently, Ou Yan took the only relic of his parents, the source that led to the destruction of the Ou family, Jade Wrench, and entered an orphanage with the help of well-wishers.

The director of the orphanage was a good man, a kind old man. The orphanage, which is not wealthy, is well organized by him, and Ou Yan, as an older child, has learned one such thing here, that is, the word responsibility.

Here he has to take care of the younger siblings, and with the other siblings, he washes and cooks for the younger siblings, and mediates disputes......

Ou Yan is willing to do this, because there is a kind old dean here who takes care of everyone with all his heart.

Soon after entering the orphanage, Ou Yan entered a government-built orphanage school, where there are orphans everywhere, everyone is the same, and they can understand and help each other. Therefore, Ou Yan grew up in such a miserable and warm environment.

After graduating from high school, Ou Yan was lucky enough to join an antique sword casting factory with the help of his grandfather, the director of the orphanage, and became an outsourcer of an antique weapon model manufacturer, and began to send money to the orphanage to reduce the burden of the orphanage.

In the sword casting factory for several years, Ou Yan studied everything very hard, and with his own hard work, Ou Yan finally had a detailed understanding of ancient Chinese weapons.

And because the weapon model factory accepts customization, it has received a variety of weapons orders.

Especially some small orders for playing games and cosplay, what kind of weapons are in them, which are all kinds of strange. Fortunately, such orders are also the most expensive, otherwise no one would want to make such complicated, cumbersome, and scarce orders.

At the age of twenty-two, Ou Yantan placed a large order, so the company paid a good salary and gave Ou Yan a big vacation. After putting in a lot of money for the orphanage, Ou Yan finally planned to go out and relax, if he didn't relax his nerves that had been tense for several years, Ou Yan really doubted that it would collapse.

Since he didn't have much money, Ou Yan didn't go far, but just traveled on the nearby Zhanlu Mountain.

Because Ou Yan's name is similar to Ou Yezi, his colleagues always joke and say: "Xiao Ou, where are you cheap?"

"My name is Ou Yan, and my words are true, so that I can remember my promise. Every time, Ou Yan would always argue and return in vain, "Dad gave me a good name, but he didn't want to be like Ou Yezi to be famous through the ages!"

"Really, my name is Ou Yanzi, if you don't go to the place where Ou Yezi forged the sword, how can you be worthy of your nickname" With this idea of seeing the same name and the same name, Ou Yan decided to go to Zhanlu Mountain, not far from home, to relax.

Zhanlu Mountain is located in the south of FJSX County, 12 kilometers away from the county seat, according to legend, it is the place where Ou Yezi of Yue people cast swords in the Spring and Autumn Period, and there are still traces of Ou Yezi casting swords on the mountain.

When traveling in Zhanlu Mountain, Ou Yan first ate a variety of snacks in SX County at the foot of the mountain, especially the unique Xiaojiao of SX County, which made Ou Yan linger.

The next day, Ou Yan went to Zhanlu Mountain, there are sword peaks, sword test stones, sword pools, sword refining furnaces, Ouye Cave is equal to Ou Yezi's sword-related ruins, of course, Ou Yan will not just visit these places, it took a day, Ou Yan really traveled the entire Zhanlu Mountain.

When the sun was setting in the afternoon, Ou Yan once again came to the sword pond in Zhanlu, and he liked this place.

According to legend, the sword pond is the place where Ou Yezi washes his sword.

Well, what is that! In the light of the setting sun, the water surface reflected in the red light, and a purple and blue light attracted Ou Yan's attention. Then, Ou Yan felt a huge thrust from his back, or a huge pull from his neck, and then he fell into the sword pool.

Ou Yan felt that his body was surrounded by a biting cold, his body seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't move, and his body was indeed completely frozen.

The death of his body caused Ou Yan's soul to be trapped in the sea of consciousness, floating three feet above his head.

Then, Ou Yan watched his body fall into the blue and purple light, and then his body was turned into dust in a white light, and then the white light wrapped the purple and blue colors and his soul, and disappeared between heaven and earth together.

And then...... It's endless darkness...... And then ......

"By the way, where did the wrench go?" Ou Yan suddenly remembered that at the last moment, the family heirloom wrench on his finger emitted a milky white light, vast, upright, and all-encompassing, in the milky white light, Ou Yan lost consciousness.

"Wrench, wrench?" Ou Yan continued to think.
