Chapter 48: Suicide note
After Xiao Jian buried the remains of that senior with great reverence, he found that he encountered a very difficult problem. According to Chinese customs, after the deceased is buried in the ground, he has to erect a tombstone, but in the image of the life of the predecessor in the previous illusion, what he saw was only a tall back, and he didn't even see the real appearance of the senior, let alone know his name.
The reason why this predecessor left the image of him asking for the people's life and supporting justice but not letting future generations know his name and appearance is probably really just hoping that later people can inherit the unfinished business of his life through that image, and he never thought of letting people sing praises to him. Xiao Jian thought in his heart, and the respect in his heart couldn't help but add a little more. This point is much stronger than some of the fame and reputation fishing I saw when I was in China, and the government officials and entertainment stars who were in front of them and behind them. Those people are sanctimonious on weekdays, preaching and preaching everywhere, as if they are the embodiment of justice, but behind the scenes, they are corrupt and pervert the law, abuse their power for personal gain, and do all kinds of things that hurt nature and reason, and lose their conscience.
Since I don't know how to erect a monument to this senior, let's take a look at the relics left by this senior, and maybe you can find any clues from it. Xiao Jian stood up and began to carefully examine everything in the stone room.
The layout of the stone chamber is simple, with a one-foot-high staircase under the north wall, which is where the previous predecessors meditated and passed away. On the top of the steps, there is still the futon that the predecessor sat on before, but it has been weathered to the point that it is not good. Xiao Jian walked over, swept away the weathered futon, and found that there was a whole cushion that looked like jade underneath, and when he touched it with his hand, it was not as cold as he imagined, and a warm feeling slowly spread all over his body along his fingers, as if the whole soul had been sublimated all at once. It's really a good thing, but I didn't expect it to have the effect of clearing the heart and calming the mind. Xiao Jian gently picked up the mat with both hands, shook it gently, and after dropping all the dust on the mat, he carefully observed it. There are no words or patterns on the mat, only a faint dark purple luster, which looks extremely simple and mysterious.
Xiao Jian rolled up the mat and put it aside, and then looked to the side, where the mat reached to the right was a small stone coffee table, on which were randomly placed a jade teapot and a jade teacup, both empty, and there was nothing in it. Further to the left, there was a shelf in the corner of the wall near the east, which I don't know what material it was made of, but it was placed against the wall in perfect condition.
Xiao Jian walked over and found an ancient sword on the top of the shelf. After gently wiping off the dust on it, the entire scabbard and hilt that had been sealed in the dust were revealed, the scabbard was delicate, and the ancient dragon-shaped pattern was carefully carved on it, although the lines were simple, but a golden dragon flying in the air was depicted vividly and lifelikely. Looking at the hilt of the sword again, except for the red gem inlaid with a red gem on the front and back of the sword near the sword body, the shape of the entire hilt is not much different from the ancient sword hilt that Yi Xiao Jian saw in the museum.
As soon as Xiao Jian pressed the hidden button, the "Zheng" sound softly, and the ancient sword automatically popped up a small section, but such a small section is enough to prove that this ancient sword is extraordinary. The body of the ancient sword is no more than three inches wide, and the sharp sword light on the blade like frost and snow is uncertain, and when he looks closely, he feels that a coercion is faintly coming, getting stronger and stronger, stronger and stronger, as if he wants to completely conquer Xiao Jian. Xiao Jian didn't dare to take a closer look, and quickly inserted the ancient sword back into the scabbard. Just now, I just glanced at it a few times, and I was already a little shocked, and if I pulled it out completely, I don't know what will happen. Xiao Jian was still very young, I once heard my grandfather say that some ancient famous swords are to be dripping blood to recognize the master, if the sword is not used forcibly by the master, it will not be able to exert the power of the sword, a famous sword is not as sharp as the ordinary steel sword, and the heavy may be eaten by the sword and go crazy. Now I don't know how to make the sword recognize the Lord, let alone whether the sword can recognize itself as the Lord, so for the sake of safety, it is better not to try indiscriminately.
Put the sword back in its place, and then look at the next layer, there are a lot of jars and jars on this layer, but what makes Xiao Jian depressed is that the contents of these sugar jars may have turned into piles of weathered residues that could not show their original shape, and they all turned into powder when they were touched.
Seeing that there was no gain from this layer, Xiao Jian moved his gaze to the next layer again. On this floor, there are two boxes, one large and one small, the small one is about eight inches long and five inches wide, and the large long sword is one foot three inches wide and nine inches wide, both of which are made of fine iron, and they are not thick, a little more than three inches. Both boxes were rusty on the surface, apparently very old.
Xiao Jian took down the smaller box and opened it carefully, there was nothing in the box except for an ancient key made of six or seven inches long white jade wrapped in satin. When he took out the key and saw that there were no words or patterns on it, Xiao Jian took up his Yuan Force again and felt it carefully, but he still found nothing. "What is this key for?" Xiao Jian muttered to himself as he played with the key in his hand, "Is this used to open a certain treasure?" But this is not right, this senior has lived such a simple life, there should be no private collection." Xiao Jian's speculation is not unreasonable, in the previous image of the illusion, that senior has been fighting all his life to create the Datong society in his heart, everyone is equal to each other, but Hao has never considered his own selfish interests, even his cultivation place is so simple, how can he have any private treasures.
After putting the jade key away, Xiao Jian opened the larger box again, only to see a letterhead written with a brush lying quietly inside. I don't know what material it was made of, but it is still very well preserved without any damage. Xiao Jian took the letter out of the box and read it word by word by the candlelight on the wall. The characters are still ancient Xiaoyi, the glyphs are simple, and the strokes are vigorous and powerful. I saw that the letter read:
"I am a native of Wushan, Shenzhou, lost my mother at the age of three, depended on my father at the age of nine, and my father was back at the age of nine. Because of the poverty and humility of the family, it is nameless and surnameless, and because it is raised by the family, it is called all beings, and it is born with the intention of raising others, and it does not forget its roots.
"When he became an adult, he was elected by everyone to take the position of patriarch. During his reign, thousands of families were happy, people and things were prosperous, but disasters fell from the sky, floods suddenly occurred, and homes were destroyed. In desperation, he took his father and elder to take refuge from home, traveled thousands of miles, experienced injustices in the world, and aspired to create a paradise where everyone is equal and a prosperous world of great harmony. Therefore, the grass created a military brigade and built the world at the beginning. At the beginning of the government, the government was harmonious, and the four peoples gathered, which was the beginning of Datong!
"However, I don't mean to be jealous of the heroes of the Quartet, gather ten times more than my soldiers and besiege, the enemy is outnumbered, although I fight to the death, I will not be defeated, and when I am seriously injured and retreat, I am not expected to be plotted by my subordinates, so that my life will return to the loess.
"Entrepreneurship is not half and the middle way is the head, I thought that this life regret can not be declared, but God bless me, to be reborn in this world, but also by chance, get the 'Divine Dragon' sword and 'Nine Abyss Holy Dragon Duel', the two treasures to help, it is like a tiger adding wings, and how can I abandon my life's road. It is to add more ambition to me, and after several years, I will unify the tribes of Canglong, and I want to wave my army to go on an expedition to create a world of great harmony!
"However, it is still too early for me to start the matter, and it is still too hasty to do it. When I got the 'Nine Abyss Divine Dragon Decision' in the previous year, I had already discovered that this exercise was only for the next part, and if there was no assistance from the previous part, the 'Nine Abyss Divine Dragon Decision' would eventually be flawed. However, the world is so big, it is not easy to get a 'Nine Abyss Divine Dragon Decision', and where can I get the 'Nine Abyss Divine Dragon Decision' again? In addition, I am nearly sixty years old, and I am afraid that I have not much to live again, although it is difficult to achieve it even if I die. Therefore, he sent troops hastily, and did not intend to come to make trouble, which not only hurt most of my people, but also lost both sides when fighting.
"Sadly, I don't have much longevity left, and my will will will be difficult to carry out! I set up a big array of trapped mountains, but it is really to prevent Chi You from coming to see my real situation. If he had known that I had gone, his people would have been slaughtered. Helpless move, I hope that future generations will remember it.
"You can read this book, it is really fate, now the dragon sword to recognize the Lord of the law and the dragon of the holy felt to use the law to help you, if you can help me to complete the unfinished ambition, the creation of the prosperity of Datong, then I can also smile Jiuquan also.
The jade key in the box is the thing that opens the array, and as for the method of opening the array, it is stored in the hands of the medicine king Zuomu, if his descendants are still alive,
Thou wilt wield the sword of the dragon and go to his rescue. If you are unable to accept the two treasures, or fail to find the divine skills of the 'Nine Abyss Divine Dragon Decision' and 'Nine Abyss Sacred Dragon Decision', you must not act recklessly, remember, remember.
The dragon sword is the best thing in the world, and it must not be evil, if it is violated, it will be counterattacked, remember to remember.
"The sword roars in the sky, the dragon dances the rivers, the dragon is out, and the world is the same. I hope you can inherit my great cause, leave blessings for eternity, and open the peace of eternity!"
The suicide note of the predecessors is full of wine and wine for nearly a thousand words, but it is righteous and heartfelt. "Leave blessings for eternity, and open the peace of eternity. "What a big mind and bearing. "Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving Dan to take care of his sweat. "In a person's life, if he can strive for such a great ideal, even if he does not succeed in the end, he can definitely have no regrets. Xiao Jian couldn't help but read the suicide note of his predecessor again with great reverence, and then carefully folded it and put it aside. Now it's up to you to see if you can make the Shenlong Holy Felt and the Shenlong Sword successfully recognize the master, the "Nine Abyss Shenlong Jue" that the predecessors worked hard to find before their deaths is not their own family heirloom mastery, and the so-called method of opening the formation should also be in the wooden box brought back by Zuo Liancheng. If you can successfully make these two treasures recognize the owner, then everything is ready, and only the east wind is owed. Perhaps this east wind will bring violent storms and stormy waves. Then let these storms and storms come more violently. How many times can a person fight in life? How much can a predecessor a thousand years ago have such ambitions, and now that he has all the prerequisites, how can he not fight hard?
Xiao Jian, who was full of excitement, did not rush to read the treasure left by his predecessors and the "Nine Abyss Holy Dragon Decision" in the box, but used his original sword to split a huge stone slab more than one meter high from the wall of the stone room, and after careful repair, a stone tablet was erected in front of the grave of his predecessor. After thinking about it, he picked up the sword and engraved the words on it - "The tomb of the predecessors of the Datong Sword Saint, on June 18, 2109 AD, Xiao Jianli, a descendant of Huaxia." After carving the words, Xiao Jian smiled with satisfaction, he came from a martial arts family, his family style has always been very strict, although his words are not as good as those of famous calligraphers, but they are still quite good.
