Chapter 9: The book is in turmoil
"That is the 'Book Sword' that once stirred the world, but it disappeared from the rivers and lakes sixteen years ago, and now this sword is reappeared, and the rivers and lakes are about to change again!"
According to Zhou Qiankun's recollection, twenty-eight years ago, the sword of life was born, and the calm rivers and lakes were like throwing stones into cold pools, stirring up bursts of ripples, and even the imperial court intervened that time.
"In September of the first year of the Great Cause, the book life sword was born, and it was rumored in the rivers and lakes that 'whoever gets this sword, Shutian will change its name', and it is rumored in the dynasty that 'whoever gets the sword, will be in the world', at first it was okay, and not too many people believed in the rivers and lakes and the imperial court. ”
"Until the spring of the fourth year of the Great Cause, some people said that they saw a sword flying in the sky, and the sun was shining all over the sky, and on the same day, this scene was rumored in Middle Earth and the barbarian land in all directions, and that was when the imperial court and the rivers and lakes really intervened. ”
"It is said that the sword of the book flew around the world in one day, and finally stood on the top of Mount Tai, at that time it was rumored in the whole world that 'the one who gets this sword, the world, the rivers and lakes, the heaven and the earth are the masters!'"
"Do you believe this kind of baseless rumors?" Chen Yunzhao felt that his brain was not enough, the Great Cause was born in the first year, and the rumors appeared in the fourth year of the Great Cause, if nothing else, this is the result of someone operating for three years, how can he believe it?
How can you believe it?
"I saw it too, I saw it with my own eyes!"
Zhou Qiankun's bland words made Chen Yunzhao dumbfounded, and he couldn't say a word for a while.
You say it's a rumor and it's not credible, but he says it's what he saw with his own eyes, what can you say?
What do you want to say?
Maybe it's the wrong sight?
People in the world have problems with their eyes on the same day, and they all see it wrong?
Is it possible?!
"Uncle Zhou, are you sure?" Chen Yunzhao thought for a while and said, "I'm not questioning you, I said I want to tell me where you saw it?"
"I remember that I was in Huashan at that time, and it was the second day of Huashan's sword debate, and it was a cloudy day, windy but not heavy," Zhou Qiankun recalled. ”
"In other words, there are all the people who witnessed with you?"
"Yes. ”
The thoughts in Chen Yunzhao's mind exploded, inextricably linked, from the singularity exploding the initial shape of the universe to the collapse of the universe and returning to the singularity.
Can anyone do that in this day and age?
No!
Could it be a natural vision?
But how to explain the Sword of Destiny?
"Could it be that there are really immortals in this world?" Chen Yunzhao could hardly have a definition in his heart, if there were immortals, then what was the purpose of them releasing the Book Life Sword; if there were no immortals, the Book Life Sword carried the glow of ten thousand ways, how did they do it in one day through the world?
"Uncle Zhou, you continue. Chen Yunzhao came back to his senses and continued to pinch his shoulders for Zhou Qiankun.
"The rivers and lakes and the imperial court have not interfered with each other since ancient times, but there will still be some contact, and that time because of the birth of the book sword, the world was in turmoil. Zhou Qiankun twisted his neck, "Eh, eh, neck, it's there just now, yes, comfortable!"
"Twenty-eight years ago, several major events happened after the birth of the Book Sword. In the spring of the fourth year of the Great Cause, it began to surge, and in the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, Li Yuan, the king of the Tang Dynasty, raised troops in Taiyuan, and in November, conquered Chang'an, and supported the acting king Yang Yu as the emperor......."
"Wait!" Chen Yunzhao interrupted Zhou Qiankun's words, "You said that Tang King Li Yuan Taiyuan raised troops and supported Yang Yu, the acting king, as the emperor?"
Doesn't that mean that the fourteen-year history of the Great Cause is still on the correct track, which means that Li Yuan should be the emperor!
But how did the Tang Dynasty become the Jade Tang Dynasty, and why did Li Yuan not become the emperor?
It shouldn't be, since he raised troops in Taiyuan, respected Emperor Yang of Sui as the emperor, and supported the acting king Yang Yu to ascend the throne as the emperor, then in the fourteenth year of the great cause, he should destroy the Sui and Tang Dynasty!
Where did the Jade Tang Shengshang come from now?!!
Zhou Qiankun nodded: "Yes, Tang King Li Yuan Taiyuan raised troops and supported Yang Yu, the acting king, to ascend the throne and become the emperor." ”
Chen Yunzhao asked puzzledly: "Since the Tang King has already raised troops in Taiyuan, that means that he already has the idea of replacing him, why didn't he set up himself as the emperor?
"I don't know this, but I heard that in March of the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, Emperor Yang of Sui died in Jiangdu, and in May, Yang Yun, the king of the dynasty, was deposed, Li Huanian ascended the throne and called the emperor, changed the country name to Yutang, and the year name Yanqing, as for Li Yuan's whereabouts, no one knows, some people say that he was thrown into the wilderness by Li Huanian, some people say that he was disarmed and returned to the field to become a hermit, and some people say that he was executed by Yang Yu before May. ”
"After the current saint ascended the throne, that is, in July of the first year of Yanqing, the book sword disappeared on the rivers and lakes, no one knows who pulled it from the top of Mount Tai, and for 16 years there have been people who have speculated that the book sword was taken away by the current saint, otherwise how can he ascend the throne and be the emperor. ”
That is to say, it is speculated that the current saint has been recognized by the book sword, so he has achieved the throne. Chen Yunzhao thought to himself, "If everything Uncle Zhou said is true, then this sword may be the axis that causes the deflection of history, and maybe I can go back if I get the book sword!"
Five days later, early in the morning.
Chen Yunzhao woke up from his dream and saw a silver-white sword of unsheathed by his pillow, which was the life of the book.
"Huh, the Sword of Destiny?" Chen Yunzhao picked up the sword, pulled out half of the blade, and looked at it carefully for a while, "Huh?"
Chen Yunzhao seemed to feel the Sword of Destiny tremble slightly, and let out a crisp and pleasant sword sound, as if he was very excited.
Regardless of whether he was delusional or not, he put away his sword and put it on the head of the bed, muttering to himself: "Uncle Zhou is really, even if you are embarrassed, you don't have to sneak it to me!"
went downstairs and never saw Zhou Qiankun, Chen Yunzhao couldn't help but be a little curious, did he leave again?
Today's inn is closed, although it is also closed on weekdays, but this time it is still locked, Gongsun Langyue, Chu Wei and Zhao Wudi sat around the wooden table, with serious expressions and did not say a word.
"What's wrong today, Uncle Zhou?" Chen Yunzhao walked to the vacant side and sat down, jokingly breaking the silence.
"Ba Dao left overnight. Gongsun Langyue looked at Chen Yunzhao, "The Sword of Destiny should be in your hand, right?"
I don't know why Chen Yunzhao's heart was tight, he shouldn't have suspected anyone here, but maybe he learned something about the book life sword from Zhou Qiankun's mouth, maybe it was because of the dream last night.
"Uncle Zhou did give me a sword. Chen Yunzhao, who had sworn not to touch wine, especially not to drink in September, poured a bowl of wine by himself, took a sip, and said, "Sure enough, it still tastes like it was at the beginning." ”
No one spoke again, Chen Yunzhao didn't say whether the sword Zhou Qiankun gave him was a book or not, and Gongsun Langyue and the three didn't mean to ask.
The atmosphere was awkwardly silent, Chen Yunzhao was not sure, he always felt that something was going to happen, and waited with an uneasy heart.
"It's coming!"
This is the first sentence Chu Wei said today, two simple words, but it made Chen Yunzhao feel the pressure, the pressure from Gongsun Langyue and the three of them.
"The sword that Ba Dao gave you is better than a book!" Gongsun Langyue spoke to Chen Yunzhao for the second time, but his eyes remained fixed on the closed wooden door.
Zhao Wudi got up in silence, opened the latch, and then picked up the rag and threw himself into the ranks of wiping the table.
Chu Wei entered the back kitchen, Gongsun Langyue was still sitting and drinking, and only Chen Yunzhao was stunned.
The uneasiness in his heart was intensifying, thinking of Gongsun Langyue's two words, Chen Yunzhao set his eyes on the wooden door, and then hurriedly ran upstairs, and hurriedly ran downstairs, placing the wooden sword on the counter.
took a rag and began to wipe the table like Zhao Wudi.
Bang dang!
The door was violently kicked open, and the leaves of the two doors were broken into pieces of various sizes and scattered everywhere.
The wind swept up the yellow sand, pouring into the inn with a heat wave, and the group dragged knives and swords, menacing.
Chen Yunzhao removed the hand covering his face, looked at the people in the rivers and lakes outside the door, and said secretly: "The person who came is not good!"
"What do you mean by this!" Gongsun Langyue drank the wine in the cup, got up and looked at the people outside the door, his phoenix eyes were slightly condensed, and the cold light flowed.
Chu Wei also walked out of the back kitchen when he heard the sound, clenched the kitchen knife in his hand, and said coldly: "What do you mean?!"
"The silver-bone dragon Gongsun Langyue, the person slaughtered Chu Wei, the rumors are really true, there is an inn Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!" An old woman opened her mouth in a sharp voice, and then surrendered her gaze to Zhao Wuving, who was buried in wiping the table, "Then this must be Liu Ye Kuai Sword Zhao Wuving!"
"Mother-in-law Scorpion should be eighteen years old this year!" Zhao Wudi didn't look up, still rubbing his head on the table, and responded with a salty voice.
These words seemed to be praising the scorpion mother-in-law's youth, but when she saw the scorpion mother-in-law with her back bent and her skin saggy, like a human skin on a skeleton, she knew that Zhao Wudi was not praising the scorpion mother-in-law, but was ironic.
"Sharp-toothed boy!" The scorpion mother-in-law was on crutches and looked at Chen Yunzhao angrily, "Old woman, why have I never seen you?"
"Xiaosheng Chen ......" Chen Yunzhao performed Confucian etiquette to the scorpion mother-in-law out of etiquette, "Xiaosheng Chen Yi, I got lost here not long ago, but fortunately the proprietress took him in and became a shopkeeper. ”
"I'm still a reader. The scorpion mother-in-law sneered disdainfully, not taking a scholar in her eyes at all.
"Badao Zhou Qiankun, come out!"
The scorpion mother-in-law's voice was shrill and unpleasant, and this roar was like the sharp sound of fingernails sliding against glass, which was extremely unpleasant.
"It seems that the poisonous scorpion mother-in-law of the Five Poison Sect didn't take the old lady and a few people in her eyes?!" Gongsun Langyue pulled out a silver bone whip from his waist, like a spirit snake, fast and ruthless!
Two big men walked out of the side of the poisonous scorpion mother-in-law, fighting the enemy with a knife and a fight, blocking the silver bone whip, and both retreated, that is, the boss lady never retreated.
"If you want to fight, we will accompany you to the end!" Zhao Wushu held the sword, Chu Wei took the knife, and both walked to both sides of Gongsun Nongyue, although there were only three people, but the momentum was like a rainbow, and the enemy was thousands of troops.
"Hand over Zhou Qiankun, this matter will be written off!" The scorpion mother-in-law's eyes rolled slightly, looking at the seventeen people on her side, and her brows furrowed imperceptibly.
Although there are only three of them in Gongsun Rongyue, they are all famous for their martial arts, and the seventeen disciples on their side are afraid that they will not be able to resist it, and they will definitely suffer a loss.
What about poison?
They can't be defenseless.
The scorpion mother-in-law was a little jealous, and she didn't dare to collide with Gongsun Langyue easily.
"A write-off?" Gongsun Langyue smiled, laughing with a smile, "Mother-in-law Scorpion said that she laughed, the little woman didn't do anything to hurt the Five Poison Sect, how can she talk about a write-off!"
