Chapter 6: The Sword-Casting Turmoil

Hearing this, Xu Qian patted his leg and said: "This Yin Sword is called 'Mo Evil', and Yang Sword is called a cadre." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

The old farmer said: "It is the two swords of the cadres and Mo Ye. ”

Xu Qian poured a glass of wine for the old farmer and said, "Later... And then how to pull it?"

The old farmer drank Xu Qian's wine and continued: "At that time, Mo Xie was already pregnant with Liujia and it was inconvenient to accompany him to offer his sword, so the cadre wanted to go to meet King Wu himself. On the eve of the sword, a gust of wind blew outside the door, and a bamboo python pounced on it. The commander picked up his sword and stabbed it straight at the python. As soon as the python spat out the red letter, opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the sword, only to hear the sound of the card, and the python turned into a scabbard. The scales on the sheath are staggered and very delicate. The cadre was admiring himself, and suddenly heard the sound of a baby crying in the house, he hurriedly entered the house to watch, it turned out that Mo Xie was already in childbirth, and gave birth to a baby boy for the cadre. In order to commemorate the husband and wife who forged a sword with one heart and one mind, they named the child Mo Gan. After a pause, he continued: "The husband and wife have long had a bad heart for King Wu, so they cast two swords within the time limit, and are ready to sacrifice one and keep one. The Yang Sword was hidden along with the Divine Sheath, and the Yin Sword was dedicated to King Wu. In the morning, the couple reluctantly broke up. The cadre Xiaoxing stayed overnight, ate and stayed in the dew, and arrived at the capital of Wu in a few days. King Wu Xuanqi entered the palace to meet the treasure. The cadre presented the Mo Evil Sword, and when King Wu saw it, it was indeed a green and shining treasure! But he deliberately asked, 'Where is the magic of this sword?' The cadre replied: "The wonder is that it can just cut gold and cut jade, and it is soft and can be silent." On sharpness, blowing hair and breaking hair, saying that the blood is not visible!' King Wu listened to the words and ordered the guards beside him to try it. The guards tried several times, and sure enough, it worked. In the end, King Wu put a lock of green silk on the edge of the sword, and blew it gently, only to see that the green silk hair was broken at the root, fluttering down on the back of the sword's abdomen. The civil and military officials cheered in unison: "It is indeed a divine sword!" King Wu Dayue asked the cadre: "Why do you try to 'kill the blood without seeing the blade'?" The cadre replied: "You can try it with cattle and sheep." King Wu said: "Divine Soldier Immortal Blade, how can it be contaminated with the blood of beasts?" Lone just wants to borrow your 'Head of the Six Suns' to give it a try!" The cadre raised his head and laughed, and calmly replied: "Kill the sword donor, who will offer the sword to kill the strategist, who will give advice?" Wu Wang said: "If you keep this sword in the world, Lone will be at ease." As he spoke, he rushed down from the throne and cut off the head of the general. ”

Xu Qian was indignant when he heard this, and slapped the table hard, shaking the chicken soup in the basin, and the soju in the cup overflowed, and said angrily: "Such a tyrant, Wu Guoyan can not die in Yue." If in the present day, the young general will be punished to avenge the predecessors of the cadres!"

The old peasant was suddenly startled when he saw this, and then said: "The general is right, King Wu will have retribution. After a pause, he continued: "After the head of the cadre hits the ground, the body is still standing. The man who fell to the ground rolled his head five times, and cried out loudly: 'The kingdom will perish, and the king will die!' When the king of Wu heard this, he screamed and fainted to the ground. Sixteen years have passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Mo Gan was sixteenth birthday. Mo Gan came home from hunting, and he looked very powerful with a leopard on his back. Mo Xie thought that the time for revenge had come, so he called Mo Gan to sit on the stone bench in front of the door, and said 'son', and the tears were already rolling down like broken threads. She told the story of the cadres forging swords, offering swords, and being killed from root to end. Mo Gan wiped his tears, stood up and said, "Let your son take revenge on this family with a sword in his hand, and remove the harm of this country." Mother, where is the sword?' So, Mo Xie casually recited four lines of poetry: 'The sky is suspended day and day, and the night sleeps by the stream. Bamboo green is my sheath, gold to cover the frost. Mo Gan was shrewd...... the old farmer was about to continue, but was interrupted by Xu Qian: "Wait... Wait, is the poem that the old man just read 'hanging in the air day and day, and sleeping in the stream every night.' Bamboo green is my sheath, gold to cover the frost. ’?”

The old peasant saw and asked, "Exactly, the general has heard of this poem?"

Xu Qian nodded and said, "I've heard of it, but I don't know the reason, so I ask the old man to continue." ”

The old farmer drank a bowl of soup and continued: "Mo Gan was astute, and after thinking about it carefully, he said to his mother, 'Could it be that this sword is hidden in the ancient cave of the hibiscus tree in the bamboo forest?'

Xu Qian interrupted the old farmer again to tell the story: "The Ancient Cave of the Golden Tree, there is a tree hole made of gold in the bamboo forest?" He knew in his heart that this 'Golden Frost Shield' must be related to the Golden Tree Cave.

The old farmer explained: "It's not a tree hole made of gold, it's a kind of tree called the hibiscus tree in the bamboo forest in the mountains, and the leaves of the tree can be used as medicine. ......He said and pointed to the chicken soup on the table: "This chicken soup is made with the leaves of the hibiscus tree." This hibiscus has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, dissolving phlegm and reducing swelling. ”

Xu Qian couldn't help but nodded: "Oh, I see." ”

The old farmer continued: "Mo Xie nodded, knowing that his son was very happy. When Mo Gan learned where the sword was, he rushed into the bamboo forest and immediately rushed into the ancient cave of the hibiscus tree. But when he saw a bamboo green python coiled in the hole, Mo Gan thought, isn't this 'bamboo green is my sheath'? Unexpectedly, the snake suddenly turned into a sheathed sword. Mo Gan went down the tree with his sword and cried his father's oath, grief and indignation. Speaking of this, the old farmer poured Xu Qian and himself a glass of wine and drank it together.

Xu Qiandao: "Does the Huangjin Ancient Cave already exist?"

The old farmer said: "Yes, it's just that the entrance of the cave is covered with poisonous cobwebs, and if you touch it, you will definitely die." There is a bamboo green python in the cave, and it sleeps for many days and months, as if it is dead. But since I was a child, it has been as good as ever. ”

Xu Qian said "oh" and said, "Then did Mo Gan succeed in revenge later?"

The old farmer said: "I just said that Mo Gan took out the sword of the cadre, and the next morning, he carried the sword, bid farewell to his mother, and marched to Wudu. One day and night, Mo Gan walked to the foot of a hill, and saw an old man with a purple face and a beard resting against a camphor tree at the place where the moonlight was shining. Mo Gan stepped forward and bowed his hand to say goodbye. As soon as the old man looked at it, he asked, "You are young, carrying a divine sword, walking alone at night, you must be the son of a cadre?" When he heard that he was his father's brother, he told his true feelings and thoughts. When the light heard this, he said, 'Before the king of faint drives, the guards are like forests, how can they assassinate at close range?' Mo Gan knew this, and hurriedly asked: "Please ask the master for advice." The light sighed and said, "To take revenge, I will borrow your sword, and second, I will borrow your head!" and then he told all the plans in his heart. After hearing this, Mo Gan took off the sword on his back and said, "Uncle, please accept it." When he had finished speaking, he cut off his own head, and with his sword, and held it in both hands to the light. The light praised, 'What a son of a general!' and began to cry aloud. ”

Xu Qian was shocked: "This Mo Gan is really stupid, how can he listen to one-sided words and sacrifice his head and give him a sword, if this person is sent by King Wu, then how can he avenge his father when he dies like this!"

The old farmer said: "This villain is not clear, the rumors have been passed down from generation to generation." ”

Xu Qiandao: "Don't blame the old man, the young general didn't say that you weren't, but repeatedly interrupted your speech, and I hope the old man will forgive me." As he spoke, he poured a glass of wine for himself and the old peasant, and raised his glass to make amends.

Seeing this, the old farmer hurriedly raised his glass and said, "The villain doesn't dare." Will the general continue to listen?"

Xu Qiandao: "Of course, of course, please continue with the old man." ”

The old peasant continued: "The next morning, the old man of Zhiguang hid a sword in his sleeve and carried a burden, and proclaimed loudly in front of the palace of King Wu: 'Play the head of the wonder child, please see the wonderful art display. The officials entered the palace and began to play, and the king of Wu immediately summoned them. The old man of the light told him to prepare the oil tripod to make a fire, and King Wu ordered it to do so. After a pause, he swallowed his saliva and said: "The flame under the oil tripod is vigorous, and the oil waves in the oil tripod are boiling. The old man of the light opened the burden and threw Mo Gan's head into the ding. It is also strange to say that the head rose and fell with the oil waves, turning up and down, and actually sang: 'Qi Qi "The head of the strange child" suddenly shouted three times in a row: "Faint King, Faint King, Faint King!" King Wu was shocked when he heard this. The old man of the light suddenly shouted behind him: "The sword is here!" In an instant, the civil and military officials were frightened, some fainted, some wet pants, some knelt down, and some fled. The palace wailed and screamed. ”

Xu Qian slapped his thigh three times in a row when he heard this, and smiled: "Good, good, good! ”

I only heard the old farmer say: "It's strange to say, the head of Mogan and the head of King Wu in the oil tripod actually fought magically." The head of Mo Gan bravely rushed, and the oil waves slammed. The head of King Wu, who was old and treacherous, suddenly sank, and went around to the back of Mo Gan's head. The Old Man of Light cried out, 'Be careful. Virtuous nephew, I'm here to help you!' said that he chopped off his head with a sword and fell into the oil ding to help. So the uncle and nephew worked together to press the king's head to the bottom. At this time, a whirlwind swept out of the Yin Yang Sword God Sheath. The scabbard turned into a giant python steeply, swallowed the treasure weapon in the hand of the light, and swallowed the Mo Evil Sword worn by King Wu's body in one bite, and then moved, and a golden cloud flew straight into the sky. Saying this, the old farmer called his wife to the kitchen to heat the chicken soup again, and poured wine to quench his thirst.

Xu Qian saw that the old farmer had finished drinking a glass of wine, and hurriedly carried a pot to help him fill it, and at the same time poured a cup in his own cup.

The old farmer drank another cup and continued: "One day, Mo Xie prepared fruits and mountain flowers, went to the sword casting place to pay tribute to her husband's heroic spirit, and prayed for the safety of her son. At this time, the local officials came violently and said that they would take Mo Xie to ask him for the crime. Mo Xie said indignantly: 'My husband will forge a sword and sacrifice a sword, but he was killed by the faint king, my son Mo Gan avenged his father, where is the crime of eliminating violence for the people?' Just as the officers and soldiers were about to arrest her, suddenly the white waves in the pool surged, a giant python probed out of the water, a mouth, a letter, a sword flew out of the mouth of the snake, a flash of silver light, the local official was in a different place. Then, the sword flew back into the mouth of the giant python, and the giant python nodded again and again, as if it was spreading rumors to Mo Xie. When Mo Xie learned that the Yin Yang Sword had flown back to the sword pool, he said, "Mo Xie wishes to be with the sword forever!" and jumped into the deep pool. In order to commemorate the Mo evil generals, the place where they cast and sharpened their swords was called "Sword Pool", and the mountain where "Sword Pool" was located was called "Mogan Mountain". ”

Xu Qiandao: "It turns out that there is such a touching and hateful story! I am really lonely and unheard, I have always thought that the cadre Mo Ye is just a pair of sword-casting masters, and I only know that what they cast is a sword of the world." Hey, ashamed, ashamed to learn martial arts and sword. ”

At this time, the old woman brought the hot vegetable soup and said goodbye and went into the house to rest. Xu Qian and the old farmer continued to chat and drink until they were full of wine and food, and then went back to the house to sleep.
