Chapter 17 The Golden Silk of the Generations

Seeing that everyone was not in a hurry, Xian Yunhuan couldn't help but be anxious, and glanced up at Lu Zhicheng, his eyes suddenly fixed on him. www.biquge.info After a while, he said, "Cheng'er, is that jade pendant still on you?"

Lu Zhicheng was stunned for a moment in his heart, and said, "Master, this jade pendant was given to me by your old man, and I have always worn it on my body." After speaking, he took out a jade pendant from his arms. Everyone looked at it, and the shape of this jade pendant looked like a long gold bar.

Xian Yunhuan said: "Cheng'er, in fact, this jade pendant was not given to you by me, it originally belonged to your Lu family. I think back then, when your father was dying, he said that this jade pendant was very important, and asked me to pass it on to you. For so many years, I have not been able to comprehend the meaning of your father's words, and today I finally want to understand that the little jade pendant actually hides such a big secret. Cheng'er, you can go over and try it now, maybe it can open this iron door. ”

Lu Zhicheng was suspicious, walked over slowly, and carefully inserted the jade pendant into the stone wall intact, just enough to connect with the small hole in the stone wall. However, there was still a trace of the iron door in front of him. Le Yiyang reminded Lu Zhicheng to rotate the jade pendant left and right, and Lu Zhicheng did it according to the method he said, but he didn't expect the iron gate to rise slowly.

Just as everyone was rejoicing, three long arrows suddenly shot out of the stone chamber. Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Zhicheng immediately swung the sword in his hand, just cutting off the arrows of the three arrows. Le Yiyang was shocked, stepped forward to pick up the arrow on the ground, picked it up and pondered it carefully, and found that there was a Chinese character faintly engraved on the arrow. He wiped the dust off the broken arrow with his hand and presented it to Hyun Yoon-hwan behind him.

Xian Yunhuan was taken aback when he saw the two words on the arrow, turned his head to Lu Zhicheng and said, "Cheng'er, from the jade pendant that opened the door and the three arrows shot, the old man concluded that this Miyun Cave has a great connection with your father Lu Guanyan. Lu Zhicheng also guessed a few points at this time, respectfully took the arrow in the master's hand, and saw the word "Lu" engraved on it at a glance.

Lu Zhicheng felt that his two feet were weak, and tears were almost pouring out of his eyes, this is indeed my Lu family's arrow, it seems that Youyun Villa is the property of the Lu family, no wonder my father asked Master to take me here when he was dying. For so many years, Miyun Cave has been in his mountain villa, but he has not been able to step into the cave for various reasons. Now, it is the time to reveal this secret, but what is the secret inside? Youyun Villa has long been rich, Lu Zhicheng regards money as dung, if it is only a treasure inside, today's trip will inevitably be disappointed.

Lai Jiyun found that Lu Zhicheng's expression was solemn, worried that he would see things and think about people, so he stepped forward and comforted: "Senior brother, don't be sentimental, if this is really Uncle Lu's arrow, there may be other relics of Uncle Lu in it." Le Yiyang also said: "Master Lu, the matter has come to this, let's go in and take a look." ”

Lu Zhicheng nodded, put down the arrow in his hand, and then walked towards the stone room.

The stone room was empty, quiet and quiet, and as far as the eye could see, no treasures such as gold, silver, and jewelry were found. Le Yiyang thought to himself, Lu Guanyan's righteous army all the way was really strict in military discipline, and he did not commit any offence to the people.

There is a high stone platform in the middle of the stone chamber, and there is no obstacle around it. The stone platform was topped by a wooden box that had not yet decayed. Lu Zhicheng's eyes lit up at this time, thinking that it was finally worth the trip, and he was about to reach over to get it, but Le Yiyang hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master Lu, I only see this wooden box in the entire stone room, and it must contain very important things. Beware of hidden weapons. ”

Lu Zhicheng was bent on finding his father's relics, but he was almost negligent at this moment. Hearing Le Yiyang's reminder, he carefully touched the wooden box tentatively with his thousand-shaped sword, and as expected, a huge net fell down from the top wall of the stone chamber, and at the same time, eight sharp arrows shot out from the cracks in the surrounding stones.

"Senior brother, be careful!" came to Ji Yun called.

I saw Lu Zhicheng jump up, jump onto the stone platform where the wooden box was placed, and wave the sword in his hand left and right, only to hear the sound of crackling, all the arrows were adjusted to the ground, and the giant net was also torn apart, emitting a stream of moldy soot. The huge net was originally woven with gold wire, and it was difficult for an ordinary sword to cut through it. The sword in Lu Zhicheng's hand is a divine sword handed down from ancient times, called Qingyun Xuankong Sword, which is extremely sharp, and he is using the thousand-shaped swordsmanship taught by Xian Yunhuan, which changes so quickly that it is dizzying, so before Le Yiyang can see the moves clearly, the huge net has already turned into a broken thing.

Lu Zhicheng took the wooden box, turned over and came to Ji Yun's side, handed the wooden box to her, and instructed: "Senior sister, take it, quickly get out of the hole with the master." Xian Yunhuan also said: "Cheng'er, I'll take the first step, you have to be more careful." So the three of them hurried to the entrance of the cave.

After Lu Zhicheng waited for the others to leave, he sat down on the ground dejectedly. He thought to himself that his father sent him to Youyun Villa back then, but he didn't expect it to be to guard this empty Miyun Cave. Disappointed, he looked around again, and found that there were no other relics of his father, so he walked out of the stone chamber and retrieved the jade pendant that his father had left him. Lu Zhicheng had just taken out the jade pendant and was about to turn around and leave, when he heard a rumbling sound from inside the stone room. The ground shook for a while, and before Lu Zhicheng's feet could stand firmly, he was rushed to the edge of the bone dissolution pool by a strong air current. He grabbed the rope so hard that it didn't get swept into the pool by the current.

Lu Zhicheng secretly rejoiced, fortunately the master and the others had left the Miyun Cave, otherwise someone might have died in the cave. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and when he glanced back at the stone room, he couldn't tell what it was, and the iron door fell to the ground indiscriminately. Lu Zhicheng got up slowly, felt tightness in his chest, and thought that the situation in the cave was critical, and it was inconvenient to heal his injuries here, so he followed the rope, carefully crossed the bone-dissolving pool, and then turned sideways through the stone crack, and then returned to the outside of the cave.

When the stone chamber collapsed, Hyun Yunhuan and the others already felt that the ground was shaking outside the cave, and knew that the situation inside was not good. Now seeing Lu Zhicheng come out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Xian Yunhuan stepped forward and asked with concern, "Cheng'er, are you injured?" Lu Zhicheng bowed slightly, the strong air flow generated when the stone chamber collapsed had already hit his chest, and now he could only reluctantly reply in a soft voice: "I was swept away by the air flow a few zhang away just now, and I may have suffered a little internal injury, but please rest assured, the apprentice is fine, and he will return to the village and recover in a few hours of recuperation." ”

Xian Yunhuan was relieved at this time, looked at the Miyun Cave, and said worriedly: "Now that the stone chamber has collapsed, only the bone dissolving pool still exists, so it is inevitable that others will go in and give their lives in vain, and the cave must be sealed again." Lu Zhicheng motioned to the Zhuang Ding to seal the entrance of the cave with stones again, and set up a new stone tablet next to the cave, on which the five big characters "Miyun Cave has been destroyed" were engraved with a long sword. At this time, the sun had turned west, and everyone went down the mountain together and rushed back to the village to rest.

Back in the village, Lu Zhicheng was already able to raise his voice to speak, but his complexion was still poor. Hyun Yun Hwan stepped forward to check his pulse, and when he saw that his pulse was very weak, he shielded everyone and began to use exercises to heal him. It took about two pillars of incense to finally force the blood out of his chest. At this time, Lu Zhicheng took a light breath, and then fell asleep on the bed. Xian Yunhuan saw that his lover was so tired, so he covered the quilt for him, and asked the maids to take care of Lu Zhicheng, while he walked out of the room gently.

There were already many people waiting at the door, and the first ones standing were Lai Jiyun and Le Yiyang. Seeing Xian Yunhuan come out, the two asked about Lu Zhicheng's situation. Xian Yunhuan answered the two truthfully, then called Le Yiyang aside, and said solemnly: "Young Master Le, the old man doesn't treat you as an outsider. However, what happened in the cave today, if others knew about it, I am afraid that it will cause you unnecessary harm. Seeing the serious expression on Hyun Yun-hwan's face, Le Yiyang thought that the matter was very important at this time, and immediately promised not to spread it.

One day later, Lu Zhicheng basically recovered his strength, and set up a banquet in the village to entertain everyone. At the end of the banquet, Lu Zhicheng invited Xian Yunhuan, Lai Jiyun and Le Yiyang to enter the inner room and open the wooden box retrieved from Miyun Cave that day. I saw that there was a broken gold silk in the wooden box, and there seemed to be some broken patterns engraved on the gold silk.

When Ji Yun saw this piece of gold silk, he asked curiously, "Senior brother, what is engraved on this gold silk, why is it in Miyun Cave?" Lu Zhicheng had never seen such a gold silk, and he couldn't answer for a while.

Hyun Yunhuan looked at the pattern on the golden silk, pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "This golden silk is a broken map, but it has been divided into two. In my early years, I heard my predecessors mention that after the failure of the Huangchao Uprising in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, he hid all the rare treasures he had collected in his life. Later, he was defeated like a mountain, and was killed by his nephew Lin Yan in Xiangwang Village in the Wolf and Tiger Valley of Taishan, and the gold silk painted with the treasure map was obtained by Lin Yan. In less than half a month, Lin Yan was killed by Li Keyong, the general of Shatuo, and the treasure map fell into Li Keyong's hands again. This Li Keyong is the father of Tang Zhuangzong Li Cunxuan. But I don't know how my friend Lu Guanyan got this half of the gold silk? Who is in the hands of the other gold silk? In any case, if we still have this half of the gold silk, then those rare treasures of the Yellow Nest have not been stolen. Now the country is in turmoil, the northern enemy is invading, and the Jin country is crumbling. If the Khitans were allowed to get this treasure map, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

Le Yiyang originally thought that this was just an ordinary gold silk, but he didn't expect that there was a big mystery on it, and said: "It's incredible, this kind of broken gold silk is worth 10,000 taels of gold." But how did the Lord of the Manifest Alliance know that the golden silk was divided into two instead of three?"

Hyun Yunhuan lifted the golden silk, motioned for everyone to lean over, and then said: "It is difficult for the entire golden silk to be divided into two sections, but this golden silk has obvious tearing marks, and it must have been torn open in an emergency. The old man deduced that the martial arts of the people holding the golden silk at that time were extremely high, and this golden silk was shaken in half from the middle by internal force. To tell you the truth, with the old man's current skills, I am afraid it will be difficult to do this in a hurry. ”

After listening to this, Le Yiyang nodded and said, "The inference of the Alliance Lord is reasonable. How can we find the other half of the gold silk? The vast land is really like looking for a needle in a haystack. ”

At this time, Lu Zhicheng fell into deep thought. Youyun Villa is not short of wealth, but the treasure of Huangchao is a wealth that cannot be underestimated, and now that he has this half of the gold silk in his hand, he has another big bargaining chip to realize the dream in his heart. Le Yiyang saw Lu Zhicheng's abnormal expression and said, "Lu Gongzi keeps the golden silk well, remember not to fall into the hands of martial arts scum." ”

Xian Yunhuan also said: "Cheng'er, Le Gongzi is reasonable. In the future, you will be in the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, and you must think of the overall situation of the martial arts. There are still some things to do as a teacher, so I will leave today. Seeing the master's words, Lu Zhicheng bowed his head and replied: "Master rest assured, the apprentice knows it in his heart, and he will not let you down." ”

Lai Ji Yun saw that the master was leaving again, and hurriedly asked, "When will the master come back?" Xian Yunhuan patted her on the shoulder and encouraged her: "Yun'er, learn the sword hard, and when your swordsmanship is perfect, the master will naturally come to see you." ”
