Chapter 177: Martial arts are real

"Be gentle!" Before entering, Professor Qi did not forget to remind Qin Yifeng again: "Don't move so big."

"Yes!" Qin Yifeng nodded, clinging to his feet, and gently entered the study room. "Teacher, where is the ancient book?"

"Wait a moment!" After entering the study, Professor Qi's movements and language became very soft. He cautiously approached a bookcase, and Qin Yifeng finally had time to take a look at the study.

I saw that the study room was not too big, only about six or seven square meters, but there were several bookcases in this small study room. These bookcases were filled with books. Most of the books were just printed matter, but some A small number of them are old antiques that look shabby and have a faint rotten smell. However, because Professor Qi took good care of them, even if they look so dangerous, they will fall apart with just a touch. My books have not been scattered over time.

Qin Yifeng gently took an ancient book and studied it in his hand. It was an ancient book that was already very worn. The missing corners on the four sides and the tatters on the cover could let him know , this book has a long history.

"The ancient book from the Song Dynasty that you have in your hand is said to have been written by Bao Gong of Kaifeng himself. It is a book that records all the strange cases and injustices during the Song Dynasty!" Professor Qi carefully held a long wooden box and walked over. Qin Yifeng and Shen Ze.

"Oh!" Seeing Professor Qi coming back, Qin Yifeng hurriedly put down the books in his hand and put his eyes on the wooden box.

"This is the ancient book you want. After research, it is found that this book was written during the period of Emperor Gaozu in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, which was not far from the time when the Qin Kingdom forgot the country. The authenticity of Qin's history is still very credible."

Qin Yifeng took the wooden box and slowly opened it, only to see a tattered ancient book inside. It looked like the ancient book was not made of paper, but the surface of something.

"This is a book made of cowhide. After two thousand years, there are not many books that are still so intact!" Professor Qi said, raising his glasses, and then whispered: "It seems that you are interested in this matter." I'm also very interested, so I want to tell you about the general content of this book first."

"Okay!" Qin Yifeng smiled gratefully, and then said, "I'm sorry to bother you, Teacher Qi."

"No trouble!" Professor Qi was very satisfied with Qin Yifeng, a diligent and studious student, so he took the trouble to explain this book to him. "This book was written during the Han Dynasty, and was written by folk literati in order to please the royal family. , a novel specially written to praise Emperor Gaozu, but due to the dictatorship of Empress Lu shortly after Emperor Gaozu ascended the throne, this book became a banned book like all books praising Emperor Gaozu in the market. Because this is an only copy, you You can even see a forbidden word printed with a soldering iron on the first page."

"Sure enough!" Qin Yifeng opened the book gently and saw that there was a forbidden word stamped on the first page of the book. This made him very strange: "Teacher, what is an orphan copy?"

"An orphan copy is a book that only has one copy left. It also includes old rubbings of certain inscriptions and unpublished manuscripts of a certain book that only have one copy left." After Professor Qi answered Qin Yifeng's academic question, Qin Yifeng became even more interested. I don’t understand: “Since there is only one copy of this book left, why didn’t Empress Lu destroy it and just print a forbidden word?”

"The reason for this is unknown. Perhaps more than 2,000 years ago, Empress Lu had other reasons for not destroying this book. This is a matter of historical research. Let's discuss it later!" Professor Qi could not think of it.

, Qin Yifeng's thinking is so active, and in a few simple sentences, you can hear the questions that have troubled historians for thousands of years.

"Let's talk about the content of this book again!" Professor Qi raised his glasses again, and then said: "The author of this book uses the first-person identity of "I" to witness Liu Bang's uprising of killing the White Snake, the Hongmen Banquet, and the overlord's suicide.

A series of historical events, the first person in the book is also a witness, and there are many descriptions of thoughts, showing "my" views on history, and this book is a different book!"

"Why do you say it is just a strange book?" Qin Yifeng was already very curious about the content in the book. Even if the content in the book had nothing to do with his family, he also wanted to read the history that ended the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony.

"If it is a novel praising the great ancestor Liu Bang, Liu Bang's enemy will usually be portrayed as a cruel villain, but this book is very loyal to Xiang Yu's description, and spends more time describing Xiang Yu's righteousness and bravery.

This kind of description technique was rarely seen in the Han Dynasty two thousand years ago, because once such a book appeared, it must have been a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan, so this book is very strange."

"This sounds really weird!" Qin Yifeng has been down the mountain for some time. He has a deep understanding of how perfect the laws of this era are. But two thousand years ago, in the era when the people were not enlightened, imperial power was supreme and the law was supreme.

To be more strict, if such a book is written, it will really be like what Professor Qi said, it will be a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.

"It is indeed quite strange, unless there is a possibility!" Professor Qi's face changed slightly, and then said: "I have studied this situation with many colleagues and concluded that the author of this book is the novelist.

The "I" in the book is a real person with extremely high power or ability, so high that even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Empress Lu were afraid of it. If this is the case, then the things witnessed by "I" in the book are very likely

It is the original plot of history. This is not a novel, but a biography, a biography that is witnessed by "I" and records the struggle between Chu and Han."

"This seems to be quite possible!" Qin Yifeng thought for a moment and realized that this possibility is indeed very high. If the author of this book is really a powerful person or a very capable person, then it can be explained.

Why did Empress Lu only dare to ban this book instead of destroying it? Thinking more deeply, it is more likely that Empress Lu also asked the author's opinion when she banned the book, and the author agreed to let her ban it before she dared to ban it.

!

"By the way, Teacher Qi, when you say that his historical background is so profound, why did you think it was a novel in the first place?" Qin Yifeng asked his question.

"There is a reason for this!" Professor Qi took the book and slowly opened it until one of the pages read: "I assisted Emperor Gaozu in the battle with Qin and killed five hundred elite soldiers with my hands!"

"What's the problem with this?" Although Qin Yifeng didn't understand the ancient Chinese very well, he could barely understand the meaning of this passage: "Isn't it just a man who killed five hundred years of elite soldiers? It's not a big deal?" Qin Yifeng believed that,

If you were in that era, you could kill three hundred even if you couldn't kill five hundred. There's nothing strange about this.

"Isn't this a big deal?" Professor Qi was shocked: "One person can kill five hundred elite soldiers. This is something that can only be performed in martial arts novels. We have read and studied many historical relics and documents, but we still cannot prove that martial arts once existed. , do you think it would be possible for one person to kill five hundred elite soldiers if martial arts did not exist?"

"Martial arts exists!" Qin Yifeng finally understood why Professor Qi thought this ancient book was just a novel. It was just because "I" in it was so powerful in martial arts that he felt it was impossible, so he only regarded it as a novel. Let’s look at it.

"Stop joking!" Although Professor Qi majored in history, he was a person who believed in science at heart. Since science and his and others' research have not been able to prove the existence of martial arts, he naturally took Qin Yifeng's words as a Just a joke.

"Really!" Qin Yifeng took a wooden box from the ground, "Teacher Qi, what is the origin of this wooden box, and what will be the consequences if it is broken."

Professor Qi looked at the wooden box and said, "This wooden box has no historical value. I just asked someone to order it and store it for storage. If it is broken..."

"Okay then, I will use this wooden box to prove to you that martial arts in this world really exists!" Before Professor Qi finished speaking, Qin Yifeng threw the worthless wooden box into the sky, and then with one hand Yang, a fierce palm wind suddenly came out from his hand and shot towards the wooden box.

"Bang..." Hit by the wind from the palm, the wooden box made a loud noise, and then turned into sawdust and scattered in all directions.

"Teacher Qi, have you seen it?" Qin Yifeng chuckled: "This is martial arts!"
