"There are countless famous mountains and rivers in the world, but this Yuxi Mountain doesn't have much speciality, why is this Water Mirror Village located in this Yuxi Mountain in Nanzhang County?" Sima Gan suddenly asked Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was naturally very puzzled, and then wondered, "Is there any inevitable connection in this? Mr. Shuijing chose this Yuxi Mountain on purpose!"

Sima Gan stroked his beard and said, "Yes! The mountain is not high, if there is an immortal, it is famous, the water is not deep, and if there is a dragon, it is spiritual." Although this Yuxi Mountain is not more than a hundred zhang high, it can be clear to the bottom, but it is very extraordinary.

At the foot of Shuijingzhuang is a clear stream, and the sound of water is murmuring, which adds a little tranquility and fairy aura to this Shuijingzhuang. It is said that Yuxi Mountain is also named after this. There is a temporary bridge on the stream, and people walk on it, and there is a feeling of Lingbo micro-step, just like soaring clouds and driving fog. Follow the winding path behind the village to the main peak of Yuxi Mountain.

It is said that this Yuxi Mountain is the birthplace of Chu culture - a branch of the Jingshan Mountain Range, extending more than 70 kilometers in the south, and the jade seal rock - the place where the Chu people Bian He got the jade in the past. Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at it, the water mirror lake is clear and the sky is long, the color is the same, the green mist and the shadow of the mountain, like a fairyland. The nearby Nanzhang City is full of people and cars, the pastoral scenery is unobstructed, and the river at the foot of the mountain stretches like a silver belt, which makes people feel refreshed and happy, and there is no thought of dust. ”

"He's Bi, could it be that this mountain is also rich in divine jade?" Lin Yi asked in surprise.

"About the story of this and the family, everyone in the world has long known, no one knows, most of the people in the world remember the thrilling story, but most of them forget where this Bian He got this treasure from!"

There is naturally a long story about this and Shibi. It is said that in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a jade expert named Bian He in the Chu State, and he obtained a piece of jade in Jingshan (now in Baokang County, Xiangyang City, Hubei Province). Bian He took the jade to see King Chu Li, and King Li ordered the jade worker to check it, and the jade worker said that it was just a stone. King Li was furious and cut off Bian He's left foot for the crime of bullying the king. King Li died, King Wu ascended the throne, and Bian He went to see King Wu with Puyu again. King Wu ordered Yugong to check again, but Yugong still said that it was just a stone, and Bian He lost his right foot because of this. King Wu died, King Wen ascended the throne, Bian He hugged Puyu and cried bitterly for three days and three nights under Chu Mountain, the tears dried up, and then blood flowed out. When King Wen learned about it, he sent someone to ask why, and Bian He said: I am not crying that my feet have been cut off, but that Baoyu has been treated as a stone, and the loyal people have been treated as bullies. Guilty and humiliated. So, King Wen ordered someone to cut open this piece of jade, and saw that it was really a rare jade, and named it He's Bi.

After the Heshi Bi came out, it became the national treasure of the Chu State and never took people lightly. For about 400 years from King Wen of Chu to King Xuan of Chu, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and the Heshi Bi has always been stored in the royal family of Chu. Later, the state of Chu proposed to the state of Zhao. He Shibi arrived in Zhao State. It is also said that when King Chuwei was king, he rewarded Xiangguo Showa for his meritorious service in defeating Wei and rewarding him. Later, Showa held a banquet in Chishan and drank, and took out the view to appreciate it in response to the request of the guests. At this time, there are fish playing in the deep pool under this mountain. Everyone rushed to see it. Zhang Yi, who had not yet made a career at that time, was succumbing to the Showa Sect, and everyone suspected that he would steal the country's treasure. So "co-executed Zhang Yi." plundering hundreds". But in the end, there was no solid evidence, so I had to give up. It is unknown whether it is an unjust case, and there is no trace of He's Bi anyway. Missing. Decades later, Miao Xian, a eunuch of Zhao State, purchased He's Bi for 500 gold, and King Zhao heard about it, so he took it for himself, and since then it has fallen to Zhao State.

How this Heshi Bi fell from the Chu State to the Dao Zhao State, although there is no clear record in this history book, it is certain that the Heshi Bi was finally in the hands of King Zhao Huiwen. Later, this matter made King Qin Zhao aware of this, and he sent an envoy to tell King Zhao that he was willing to exchange fifteen cities for "He's Bi".

At this time, it was the late Warring States period, and after the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the Qin State was now strong and strong, while the Zhao State could only survive under the obscenity of the Qin State. This led to the eternal story of Lin Xiangru returning to Zhao.

After King Zhao read King Qin's letter, he thought to himself: King Qin has always been a person who only wants to take advantage and refuses to suffer. If you don't agree to his request, you are afraid that the Qin State will raise troops to attack, and if you agree, you are afraid that you will be deceived. He thought about it and couldn't make up his mind, so he discussed it with the ministers, but the ministers couldn't think of any good way. I wanted to find someone who could be sent to reply to the Qin State, but I couldn't find it.

At this time, Miao Xian, the leader of the eunuchs, recommended Lin Xiangru to complete this arduous task, and Lin Xiangru knew about it, so he said to King Zhao: "King, let me take He's Bi to see King Qin." When I got there, I saw the opportunity. If the King of Qin refuses to exchange fifteen cities, I will definitely bring back the Heshi Bi intact. "King Zhao knew that Lin Xiangru was a brave and witty man, so he agreed to let him go.

Lin Xiangru arrived in the state of Qin, and the king of Qin received him in the palace. Lin Xiangru dedicated the "He's Bi" to the King of Qin with both hands. King Qin took it and looked left and right, and liked it very much. After he finished reading it, he passed it to the ministers to read one by one, and then handed it to the concubines of the harem to see.

Lin Xiangru stood by alone, waited for a long time, and did not see the King of Qin mention the matter of ceding fifteen cities, so he knew that the King of Qin did not have the sincerity to exchange fifteen cities for Baoyu at all. But Baoyu was already in the hands of King Qin, how could he get it back? He thought about it and came up with a plan. I saw Lin Xiangru walk forward and say to King Qin: "Although this piece of He's Bi looks very good, there is a little flaw, let me show it to the king."

As soon as the King of Qin heard that He's Bi was flawed, he hurriedly asked someone to bring Baoyu from the harem to Lin Xiangru and ask him to point it out. Lin Xiangru took the Heshi Bi and took a few steps back, leaned on the pillar, and said angrily to the King of Qin: "At the beginning, the Great King sent a letter to the King of Zhao, saying that he was willing to exchange fifteen cities for the Heshi Bi of the Zhao State. The ministers of Zhao State all said, don't believe Qin Guo's deceptive words, I don't think so, I said that the common people still talk about faithfulness, not to mention the king of Qin! King Zhao listened to my advice and sent me to send He's Bi. Unexpectedly, King Fang Cai took Baoyu over and handed it over to the people below to see, but he didn't mention the matter of changing fifteen cities. In this way, the king really did not have the sincerity to exchange the city for the city. Now that the treasure jade is in my hands, if the king insists on persecuting me, I am willing to smash my head and this piece of treasure jade on this pillar!"

King Qin originally wanted to ask the warriors to rob it, but he was afraid that Lin Xiangru would really smash the treasure jade. Hurriedly apologized to Lin Xiangru, saying, "Doctor, don't worry, how can what I say not count miles!" Lin Xiangru thought to himself, King Qin often plays tricks, but don't fall for him again! He said to King Qin: "This piece of He's bi is a famous treasure in the world." When King Zhao sent it to Qin, he fasted for five days and held a grand ceremony to give precious jade to the imperial court. Now the king wants to accept this piece of jade. I should also fast for five days and hold a ceremony to receive the treasure jade at the imperial court, so that I can offer the treasure jade. ”

King Qin didn't want to do this, but seeing Lin Xiangru's resolute attitude, he had to say helplessly: "Okay!

Lin Xiangru took the piece of treasure jade to the mansion. Asked one of his subordinates to dress up as a trader, wrapped the piece of precious jade, hid it on his body, and secretly ran back to Zhao from the trail. As for what King Qin will do to him. He didn't think about it at all.

Later, when the king of Qin found out about this, he regretted that it was too late, and he wanted to send troops to attack Zhao, but Zhao had made military preparations, and I was afraid that he would not be able to win. The most rear. King Qin was very angry, but when he saw that Lin Xiangru was witty and brave, he was a rare talent, and he did not embarrass him. He let him go back to Zhao. This event is known in history as "Returning to Zhao after Completion". This incident is recorded in detail in Sima Qian's "Historical Records". At the same time, it is a record of Lian Po and Lin Xiangru, and the story of the disharmony between Xiang and Jiang is (Lian Po Lin Xiangru Biography).

"Stone is precious to people, and people are shown by stones. If it weren't for the harmony of the family, he would never have performed a story of 'returning to Zhao after finishing the wall' and made Lin Xiangru famous in history. It is very likely that he is like a man of grass and trees, and he is old under the door of the sage, and if it were not for the courage and knowledge to carry the Bi to make Qin's Lin Xiang, the Heshi Bi may not have risen in value and become worthless, at best he would have been a plaything in the hands of princes or emperors. Now Lin Xiangru has long since disappeared, but where is the Heshi Bi that once left Lin Xiangru's warm hand now?" Lin Yi sighed after listening to this Sima Gan's story. This Sima Shu has been familiar with the scriptures since he was a child, so he is naturally familiar with the stories in them. But because this Sima Gan is an elder, he listened very patiently.

"No, no, no, what the old man said and His Highness knows are all contained in this official history or folk history, hasn't His Highness noticed the contradiction in this story?"

"Please see Emperor Uncle Taizu!" Lin Yi said very respectfully.

"During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many vassal states had their own treasures. Zhou has a bad luck, Song has a knotted green, Liang has suspense, and Chu has a harmony. Hepu is another name for He's Bi. This and the family is one of the most famous treasures of the town, in its circulation for hundreds of years, is regarded as the "priceless treasure" of the "treasure of the world", and with the Hou Zhu as famous, a total of the world's two great treasures.

With the greedy character of the King of Qin, when he encountered such a priceless treasure, he was afraid that he would be tickled even more than the cat when he saw the fish, how could he let go of this treasure? The embassy where Lin Xiangru lived was heavily guarded, and he was afraid that not even a fly could fly away! And that Lin Xiangru was able to turn a person into a trader and take the Heshi Bi to break through the many checkpoints and escape from the Qin State. Moreover, with the character of the King of Qin, this Lin Xiangru humiliated him in front of the palace ministers and concubines, and at that time, it was only the courage to burn the jade that left a life.

The wrath of the Son of Heaven ambushes millions of corpses and sheds thousands of miles of blood; This Lin Xiangru is certainly wise and brave, but the courage of the moment cannot be used for a lifetime, he is just the fish and meat on the sword of the King of Qin. Such a big crime of bullying the king, the king of Qin actually let this person go in the end, this is even more incredible!" Sima Gan talked eloquently again.

"Could it be that this Heshi Bi is not this ordinary treasure, but it has the effect of a psychic treasure!" Lin Yi listened to this Sima Gan's analysis, and really felt that there was a big doubt in it. It seems that this history book is not completely reliable, and it is deliberately vague to hide many unsavory secrets.

"Yes, this and the family is a psychic treasure, although it is not carved, but it can automatically protect the master, this Lin Xiang is such a wise and brave loyal person, this and the family bi naturally want to protect his life, protect him from the Qin State safely. Sima Gan continued.

"Psychic treasure!" Lin Yi exclaimed. He just guessed casually, but he didn't expect it to be true. Lin Yi has seen this record of psychic treasure in some ancient books, and it is said that this psychic treasure is the refining material of the previous immortals, even the fairy world is a very precious thing, and the advent of every psychic treasure will cause a bloody rain. Even the Upper Realm True Immortals are not immune!

"In the end, this and the clan were finally obtained by the Qin State, and there is no record of when and how it was owned by the Qin State. Later, Qin Shi Huang swept Liuhe, leveled the universe, in order to reflect his own predecessors, the merits of the unprecedented, the future of the uncome, ordered the jade worker to write the prime minister Li Si wrote the "by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang" eight bird and insect shaped seal characters carved on the and the bi, as the emperor's jade seal.

In this way, He's Bi became the national seal. Generations. Some people have even found jade blocks made from the leftovers of engraved seals. After the death of Qin Shi Huang, Zhao Gao usurped power. When Liu Bang led his troops into Xianyang. The state seal fell into his hands. After Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, he took the jade bi as the national seal of the Han Dynasty, and since then the Heshi Bi has become the "national seal". After Liu Bang, nine generations of emperors were passed on.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped power. At that time, because the little emperor Liu Ying was young, the national seal was managed by the crown prince. Wang Mang asked his younger brother to go to Changle Palace to ask for the jade seal, and the queen mother angrily threw the seal to the ground and scolded: "Get this seal of the dead country, see what happens to your brother!" The seal was missing a corner, and later Wang Mang made up for it with gold. But to no avail, it still left a trace. Sima Gan continued. This story Lin Yi is naturally not unfamiliar, and now this heirloom jade seal is in the hands of Emperor Hui Sima Zhen!

"It's no secret that this heirloom jade seal was carved by He's Bi. But what does it have to do with Mr. Shuijing?" Lin Yi asked again puzzled.

When Sima Gan heard this, he quickly became very nervous, and carefully checked it several times to make sure that there was indeed no one around. Only then did he cautiously whisper in Lin Yi's ear. After a while, Lin Yi finally understood the origin of the story.

It turned out that this Mr. Water Mirror, Sima Wei, was not a person in this realm, but actually the legendary immortal in the upper realm. Although it was restricted by the laws of this world, most of Sima Wei's cultivation was suppressed, but his insight was still far beyond that of the cultivators in this world. Sima Wei came to this world to find this and the bi, so he deliberately lived in seclusion not far from the place where he was found, but it took a lot of hard work, and later found out that this and the bi was carved into a jade seal by Qin Shi Huang, and later it was the late Western Han Dynasty Empress Dowager Wang Zhengjun fell a corner, which and the role of the bi as a spiritual treasure has been lost.

The laymen in this world, where do they know the wonderful use of this spiritual treasure of the Tao is so wasted. This Sima Wei tried his best, but the result was like this, and he left here without hesitation. Therefore, this is the reason why Water Mirror Villa never appeared again.

If mortals heard this Sima Gan's words, most of them thought that the King of the Plains was terminally ill and insane. But after Lin Yi went through so many things, he had come into contact with so many cultivators and immortal cultivators, and he had already thought that Sima Gan was not messing around. It's just that what surprised him was that there really were such characters as immortals in this world. According to the definition of the cultivation of this cultivation realm, even if the cultivation is the lowest scattered immortal, it needs to refine the void and smash the void.

Now there is no cultivation in this world that is refining gods or imaginary realms, even if it is a false pill, it is rare, not to mention that Yuan Ying, this distant and unattainable dream. Fortunately, there is still such a large array restriction as the Infinite Immortal Array in this world, if there is no such law restriction, I am afraid that just a random mortal immortal can destroy the entire world realm.

And although this Sima Gan's cultivation can only barely be a cultivator to get started, what can be said is that there is so much news about the Dao. All this was dictated by his father, Sima Yi. It is said that because this Sima Wei first came to this world, he was repelled by the power of this great array and was seriously injured in Yingchuan. Fortunately, at this time, Yingchuan Taishou Sima Jun saved this Sima Wei, and later a pair of genealogies, only to find out that this was actually a person from the same clan, and this Sima Jun had the grace to save his life, so this Sima Wei decided to secretly support Sima Jun's descendants as emperors.

This Sima Yi is Sima Jun's grandson, Sima Wei found that he has good bones, so he brought it into this Water Mirror Village to cultivate it seriously and teach him. This Sima Yiguo lived up to his high expectations and eventually became one of the most famous strategists in the world, and finally laid a solid foundation for future generations of Wei Jianjin. And the other disciples of Mr. Shuijing, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Xu Shu and others didn't know about Lu Dao, and even had been enemies of Sima Yi, which also belonged to their own masters, and this Sima Wei had already expected this final outcome.

Of course, this Sima Wei is not without desire, he is hollow to operate, so that the Sima family can get the world, just to get the heirloom jade seal, but in the end it disappointed him, this and the family bi was carved into the heirloom jade seal, has long lost its heavenly spirituality, and ordinary treasures are not much different, so in the end had to leave this mortal world.

Of course, this Sima Yi, as the head of the Sima family at that time, was naturally very clear about this Sima Wei, and later he sent his most spiritually qualified son, that is, this Sima Gan, to this Shuijingzhuang to learn the Tao and seek art, but unfortunately this Sima Wei was unable to achieve what he wanted later, and returned to the fairy world. This led to the halfway of what Sima Gan had learned.

"My father left his last words before he died, and I am afraid that this heirloom jade seal is not as simple as it seems!" Sima Gan said to Lin Yi again. At this time, another cultivator finally appeared in the Sima family, and he was finally relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Maybe Mr. Shuijing is really eye-catching, maybe only you ascend the throne as the emperor, and you will know when you get the jade seal of the country!" Sima Gan continued. (To be continued......)
