Chen Zhi looked at the printed information in his hand, which described an incident that occurred in F City, Shandong.
In August 1977, a first-year high school student named Guo Jinping from the No. 16 Middle School in F City visited Youqi Temple in Taoshan with his classmates. When he was visiting alone behind the temple, he saw an ancient tomb from the Ming Dynasty in the bushes.
Letter: Hu's Tomb. I thought it was the tomb of an old monk, so I collected a bunch of flowers and presented them to him. After I presented the flowers, I looked up and saw an ancient jujube tree on the tomb with a red date on it. It was as big as a melon, bright and very attractive.
, couldn't help but pick it off and eat it, feeling it was as sweet as honey.
After eating, Guo Jinping suddenly felt that his whole body was relaxed, his seven orifices were refreshed, and his thoughts were flowing. So he hurried home. After returning home, he stayed behind closed doors and wrote a 150,000-word chapter novel in just 3 months.
"Boundless Romance", and the content of the novel is actually a love story between a fox fairy and a human.
Afterwards, someone asked him: Why did you, a teenager, write such a brilliant and profound chapter-style novel? This is very inconsistent with your age and experience. Guo Jinping's answer was: He dreams every night.
It was a beautiful woman who told him this story:
During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Li Bangzhen, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, once studied at Jinniushan Academy in his youth. Due to his dull childhood, he remained illiterate after attending the academy for many years, which caused constant headaches for his father and master.
When Li Bangzhen was young, he moved to Youqi Temple to the west of Taoshan Academy to study. One night, while he was studying at night, he suddenly met a young woman visiting. The woman called herself Hu. After the two exchanged names, they fell in love with each other, and every night since then
They met quietly. The woman knew that Li Bangzhen was in pain. One night, she took a red pill from her belly and put it in her mouth, and asked him to take food and suck it into her mouth. Li Bangzhen suddenly felt that his whole body was relaxed and his seven orifices were refreshed. The next day, he read poems and poems at a glance and ten lines at a time.
, the sight becomes a recitation.
Not long after, she was discovered by an old monk in the temple. The old monk knew that the beautiful woman was a fox who had been practicing in the mountains for many years. The red pill in her mouth was a golden elixir of all spirits. It was the result of thousands of years of practice. If a mortal can get it, he will become an immortal.
Tao: The old monk secretly told Li Bangzhen: If you meet a beautiful woman again, swallow her red pill in secret, and your future will be unlimited.
The young man Li Bangzhen didn't know what was going on and followed the plan. The woman lost the red pill and cursed: "Bo Xinglang!" She actually covered her face and left crying. The next day, Li Bangzhen found a white fox in the bamboo forest behind the temple, which had died unexpectedly.
Li Bangzhen was grateful for the beauty's kindness in educating her. He built a tomb for her behind the temple and set up a stone tablet next to the tomb with the inscription: Hu's Tomb.
From then on, Li Bangzhen passed the imperial examination, became famous on the list, and rose rapidly, becoming the prime minister. Fifty years later, one night, the old prime minister suddenly had a dream: a beautiful woman suddenly arrived, and the two embraced each other. The beautiful woman cried and asked for the red pill. Li Bangzhen
When she refused, the beauty suddenly turned into a white fox, and her body rotted and the stench rose to the sky. While vomiting, Li Bangzhen accidentally spit out the red pill he had swallowed. The white fox immediately jumped up and quickly took the red pill away. Li Bangzhen was shocked and woke up.
Later, we found out that it was just a dream.
But from then on, his official career came to an end. When Yan Shifan and his son rebelled against traitors, Li Bangzhen was implicated and almost went to prison. After he hung up his crown and retired to seclusion, he returned to Taoshan Youqi Temple where he studied in his youth, hoping to meet that beautiful woman again and relive his life.
Old love. But unfortunately, he never saw that young woman again.
After reading this information, Chen Zhi and Fat Wei looked at each other.
Chen Zhi asked Master Bao: "Are you asking us to find the tomb of the Fox Fairy? But is this legend credible? The writer named Guo Jinping probably made up this story to promote his novel."
"We have investigated Guo Jinping. He was only sixteen years old when he wrote this novel. It is unlikely that he could have written such a complete novel. Moreover, Li Bangzhen mentioned in the book actually existed in history. In the unique unofficial history we found,
There is Li Bangzhen's autobiography, which matches the time and place. This story is mentioned in it, but he was poor in his later years and no one believed it. And this unofficial history is something that the writer named Guo Jinping will never see."
Mr. Bao said with certainty.
"Oh my god, are there really gods? Isn't the fox fairy sister looking very upright?" Fat Wei looked at Chen Zhi with a smile.
"The most important evidence is this." Mr. Bao stubbed out his cigarette, took out a piece of black stuff from the edge of the box, and carefully handed it to Chen Zhi. Fat Wei also wanted to get it, but Lao Jidu glared at him.
I didn't dare to reach out.
Chen Zhi took it and took a look. It looked like two pieces cut from an ancient bamboo slip. It was dark and unknown how old it was. It was engraved with Juanxiu's handwriting. Chen Zhi seemed familiar, but couldn't understand it.
"What is engraved on it is the ancient Qin style." Bao Ye said: "The content of the text is: The nine-tailed sky fox has the Su family. When the Shang Dynasty was established, he was granted the title of Lord Xuanhu. Because of his heinous crime, he was demoted to Qingqiu and later died in
In the land of Qilu, there are more than 19,900 years of life, and there are thousands of sacred tombs, and the legitimate son Bai Qian is the chief priest."
Mr. Bao raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Zhi seriously and continued: "The land of Qilu is the name of Shandong during the Warring States Period. According to this calculation, the earliest death time of the Nine-tailed Sky Fox should be the Warring States Period. The Bai Qian recorded above should be
She is the guardian of the tomb of the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox God, and is probably the white fox woman mentioned in the novel, who is also the owner of the tomb of the Fox Fairy."
"Where did this bamboo slip come from? Is it credible?" Chen Zhi asked.
"This was given to me by a person I trust very much. We basically confirmed that this bamboo slip is part of the God's Legend." Bao Ye said.
After hearing this, Chen Zhi nodded and fell into deep thought.
At this time, Lao Jiandou suddenly spoke, "Ghost Sword, are you saying that Chen Zhi needs a good sword?"
Ghost Sword nodded.
Let's go over and pick one!" Lao Jiandou took out the key.
Chen Zhi and Guidao stood up and went to the back with Lao Qingqiu. Fat Wei was about to get up when Master Bao stopped him, "You stay." Master Bao had a smile on his face, but there was murderous intent in his eyes.
Fat Wei sat back and clenched his fists unconsciously.
"Brother," Mr. Bao said, holding Fat Wei's shoulders, "I completely trust Chen Zhi. But you and I have no connection before. I know some things about you in the past. You are a loyal person, which is good. From now on.
From today on, I will trust you and I will take care of your mother, but don't betray my trust, otherwise you will not be able to bear the consequences." Mr. Bao's voice was very soft and slow, with a smile on his face.
"I understand, don't worry." Fat Wei used to hate others threatening him, but this time he didn't say a word. He knew not to act out of character in front of the King of Hell.
Chen Zhi and the others came back, and Guidao chose a small dagger for him. He said it was called "Baipi" and was made during the Wei Dynasty. It was made of the same piece of iron as the fish intestine knife. It was short and small, and compared to Guidao, it was made from the same piece of iron as the fish intestine knife.
The knife was far too long, and Chen Zhi was very dissatisfied.
"Tomorrow you will go to Shandong. Uncle Jin will go with you. We are responsible for all the equipment. Except for the spiritual stones, everything dug in the tomb belongs to you." Mr. Bao said, waving to Lao Jiandou to take them out.
"Okay, Mr. Bao, you are such a cheerful person, please treat me well! Tomorrow we will go find that fox fairy sister for you!" Fat Wei was so happy when he heard that all the artifacts dug up belong to him.
From ear to ear. Just like that, the group left the villa.
