In the time that followed, Chen Zhi and his father worked on some plans together, the biggest part of which was of course the search for the long-lost Muchen Bead.
According to popular belief, Muchen Pearl was taken to the cemetery by King Wu of Zhou before his death!!
However, there are reliable historical records that at the end of Qin Dynasty, this artifact fell to southern Yunnan, and its owner at that time was King Xian.
It was because King Xian couldn't bear to part with this Muchen Bead that he left the country and planned to find a place in the mountains to cultivate and become an immortal in order to realize his dream of immortality~~
Therefore, the so-called shadow bead buried in the mausoleum of Liu Chemao, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was just a fake shadow bead. The real Muchen Bead was held in the mouth of King Xian after his death as a burial object.
Therefore, this bead must have seen the light, and the last person who saw this treasure must have been in the cemetery.
Looking at subsequent history, the political situation was very chaotic.
After the end of the Qin Dynasty, various heroes fought for hegemony, and Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty.
After the Han Dynasty, there was a long period of division. The Three Kingdoms were separated, heroes emerged in large numbers, and the land of China was once in chaos. History books and legends are full of them~~
If this bead had fallen into the hands of a powerful warlord or prince at that time, it would have been reflected in some historical records. It could not have been hidden so well~~
And another dark corner of Chinese history, where tomb robbers have always been rampant? For thousands of years, the special industry of tomb robbing has been prosperous and has traveled to various cemeteries at night.
No prince's tomb can be spared~~
So from this point of view, this bead probably ended up in the hands of tomb robbers.
When a tomb robber sells his stolen goods, he will definitely do so in a secret place, and the person who purchased it may also do so in a secret place.
Chen Yiyang believes that the reason why this treasure has never been exposed to the water is probably because it has been hidden in the hands of some family after the tomb of King Xian was stolen?
And this family is likely to be prosperous and able to hold on to this treasure for such a long time.
Moreover, they don't like to show off, and they don't plan to use this orb to have dreams of becoming an immortal and becoming a Taoist.
Therefore, this bead has never been made public...
This is just a rough inference.
But with this idea, you can investigate through the details!!
The investigation needs to start from ancient history and investigate the big families hidden on this land!!
China has always said that wealth lasts only three generations. If a family has been prosperous for that long, it is impossible to completely hide it.
Economics and politics complement each other, and any large family must be more or less connected to political forces.
Investigate all historical records to see if there is any family that has been prosperous from the late Qin Dynasty to the present~~
Investigating this kind of internal information requires entering many high-end networks, checking the hidden total assets of large households, and even entering international financial networks!!
Logically speaking, such a high-intensity information intrusion should go through Ye Qiu's relationship.
Executed through the above power, otherwise it is completely impossible!!
But Chen Yiyang went to tell Chen Zhi that if he was given three days, he would find a way to crack all high-level networks.
Use the checkpoints above to investigate these confidential information...
Chen Zhi has great faith in his father's abilities.
Except for his somewhat skewed outlook on life, his father can almost be said to be a perfect superman.
Sure enough, within three days, his father called and brought shocking news.
It seems that the saying that China's wealth cannot last more than three generations is indeed very valid. From ancient times to the present, there are only a few families that have been prosperous.
Regardless of how prosperous the country was in its heyday, whether it was as rich as a country or a noble person, at most, it would take seven or eight generations before it would be abject!!
Many big families have even become extinct long ago, and no descendants can even be found!!
However, there is a very special family that has prospered from the Spring and Autumn Period to the present because of its unique status!
Long-lasting prosperity and prosperous descendants!!
Although there were many changes in dynasties in the past dynasties, no matter who the emperor was, he would always treat his family with courtesy.
There were even emperors who appointed them and appointed them as the first-class products for generations to come, with utmost respect!!
Even now, the family's mansion is bustling with people and cars and horses~~
That is the founder of Chinese Confucianism, the family of Sage Kong, the Confucius House!!
Facing this result, Chen Zhi frowned very much. To be honest, he was not afraid if he had to enter some harsh mountains or even hell.
But for this place, I believe that no one who was born in China would be taboo about it.
The Kong family is a very unique family, and they have existed for a very long time in history.
Take his genealogy as an example. I heard that it contains extremely rich content, including many records from ancient times to the present, which is equivalent to a Chinese history book.
Moreover, due to the careful care of the clan members, the completeness of the genealogy is higher than that of other families, and it has already become a Chinese treasure.
This is a very principled family, and the reputation of the Kong family is very high in this land.
There have been many well-educated people in the past dynasties. In the emperor's court, there will always be the position of the first-rank official of their family.
It is said that when Dorgon entered the capital and gathered all the civil and military officials, he spoke fiercely and did not take any Han people seriously.
When meeting the descendants of the Kong family, they were still very respectful and did not dare to make any mistakes~~
How many generations have passed, but this family still stands tall in the torrent for more than 3,000 years.
All Chinese people know that Confucius' Confucianism has penetrated into the bones of the Chinese people.
This is not just the majestic Confucius Temple standing in Shandong and the bustling ceremony of worshiping Confucius, but also a mark in the hearts of the Chinese people.
If the Muchen Bead is really in Kong's mansion, it will be even harder than finding a needle in a haystack~~
Of course, this is just a guess based on investigation and inference. If you want to determine whether it is true, you cannot just rely on guesswork, but you need absolute evidence!
And this evidence was also found by Chen Yiyang three days later!!
Chen Yiyang found a document photo from the Cultural Revolution period in the early years. Among them was a personal letter from the second head of the Confucius family, which was sent to an officer in the army at that time.
The general meaning of the content is to help preserve valuable items through personal connections.
That document was all written with a brush, and the handwriting was strong and strong, and his calligraphy skills were comparable to those of a master.
What is written above is:
【Brothers are like faces~~
All the treasures stored in my home have been put into one category and entrusted to my brother for safekeeping.
That's all. The Phoenix Gall Beads among them are the relics of ancestors and are extremely precious. If they are lost, they will die!!
I hope that my brother will put his life first, so he must do it~~】
This letter did not achieve its purpose after being sent.
Because the officer he entrusted was quickly investigated and punished for violating military discipline.
Therefore, this private letter was also seized. It seems that the matter of entrusting someone to preserve the object was also unsuccessful.
Because there were many such things at that time, no one noticed it!!
