119. Chapter 119 The Origin of the Treasure
Chen Hao gave a embarrassed salute, and then the three of them sat down. Only then did Master Ming and Master tell Chen Hao about the reason for this.
This matter dates back to the Sui Dynasty. When the Sui Dynasty was about to unify the world, only the Chen Dynasty in Jiankang, Jiangnan had not yet been pacified. Chen Shubao, the last king of the Chen Dynasty, had many princes, and Chen Yin was the oldest. However, because he was born in a vassal, he was eventually deposed as the crown prince and was named King Wuxing to guard Jiankang.
The wheel of history failed to stop its pace because of the Chen Dynasty's obstacles. Chen Shubao's incompetence eventually led to the fall of the Chen Dynasty. All the children of the Chen family were sent to Chang'an, and Chen Yin was naturally among them, and soon afterwards he died of serious illness.
However, the real Chen Yin did not die, but returned to Jiankang by stealing the truth. In private, he was always waiting for the opportunity to restore the Chen Dynasty. The reason why Chen Yin had such plans was not without foundation, because he had huge wealth as a backing.
His father Chen Shubao made a lot of money, and his private treasure house was piled up like mountains. Seeing that the Chen Dynasty was in danger, his father was indifferent to the war. So when the Sui army entered the Jiankang Palace, he sent his own guards to transport the treasure house to the city secretly. Since all parts of the Chen Dynasty had returned to the Sui Dynasty, he took advantage of the night to transport it away from Qixia Mountain near Jiankang (Nanjing).
The host of Qixia Temple on Qixia Mountain was Chen Yin's old friend, so he hid a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry in the deep mountains. The building was about to collapse, and the day he was escorted to Chang'an. Chen Yin expected this and set up an agency in the mountains to hide gold, silver and treasures.
Finally, the two of the three star keys were kept by Chen Dynasty general Qin Yi and Luo Yi, and the two of them were informed of the rough mountain route. In order to see if the time is ripe in the future, the treasure will be opened and the treasure will be made a comeback.
Later, when the Chen Dynasty was destroyed, Chen Yin was escorted to Chang'an. His subordinate guard Chen Guang led his team to become a monk at Qixia Temple, temporarily hiding in order to make a comeback...
However, after the Sui Dynasty unified the world, it ushered in a brief decades of prosperity. It was also heard that Qin Yi died in battle, Luo Yi surrendered to the court, which made Chen Yin very revenge but powerless. Until Emperor Yang of Sui failed to expedition to Goryeo for five times, the Sui Dynasty soon ushered in an unprecedented era. It was an era of heroes competing for the sake of success, but the most regrettable thing was that Chen Yin passed away shortly after the recession and illness.
Chen Yin's descendants were more brave and less intelligent. In the end, they were drowned by the general trend of Li Tang before the waves even appeared. Later, the Luo family joined the Tang Dynasty, and the 18th rebel king and the 64th smoke and dust were all destroyed. At this point, the Tang Dynasty unified the world.
In the decades that followed, Chen Yin's descendants had a large scale, so they became a large family. Later, when Empress Wu seized the throne, Xu Jingye raised an army to rebel against Wu, and Chen Yin's descendants Chen Cang took advantage of the army. However, Xu Jingye was unable to defeat the rebel army, which made Chen Cang's ambition difficult to fulfill and was purged by the court. Chen Cang finally died in the ten thousand horse army, and then the Chen family disappeared in the countryside again, and the third star-shaped key was also lost...
During this period, the children of Chen knew about the rumors of the treasure but there was no trace. They also searched for the remaining star keys but were fruitless in the end, and they were incomplete...
After more than two hundred years of ups and downs during the period, the Chen family had already become deeply rooted in scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and no one thought about restoring the country. The Chen members gradually joined the Chen family in Yingchuan to find a stable life. Until Chen Xuanli, the eleventh generation grandson of Chen Yin, had both civil and military affairs, and first served as the commander of Guoyi, and followed Li Longji (Xuanzong) to raise an army to kill Empress Wei and Princess Anle. After Xuanzong ascended the throne, he stayed in the palace.
Later, he made great achievements at Mawei Post, but he was depressed and unsuccessful. So after he was granted the title of Duke of Cai, he resigned from office and retired to live in seclusion in Qixia Mountain. During this period, he built this Biyun Pavilion, and set up an endgame in the pavilion, waiting for future generations to break the situation...
Chen Hao listened to Minghe's talk, and then he clearly straightened out the causes and consequences of the treasure. I think the star-shaped key that Chen Cang lost must have been wandering among the people and was found by the Tai Chi Gate. Then he used Xie Feng to carry the key as bait and then let himself successfully launch the treasure-hiding place.
The reason why Luo Yi later had two star keys was that Luo Yi accidentally obtained another key that Qin Yi died and that time. This was the story of Luo Yi sending the pendant to his ex-wife Jiang, and finally falling into Zi Yuan's hands.
From Luo Fengjiao's tattoos with a treasure road map, it is enough to see that Luo Yi also coveted this treasure back then. But he returned in vain, so he hoped that future generations could obtain it according to the picture one day.
But Chen Hao was confused. Since the treasure hiding route was not engraved on his back, and the treasure map on the descendants of the Luo family just confirmed the poem on the key totem, is this a coincidence?
Chen Hao asked Master Minghe about this doubt, but Master Minghe smiled mysteriously. He placed the three keys he took when he saved Chen Hao that day and piled them up on the stone table, signaling Chen Hao to see.
Chen Hao looked carefully and saw three star-shaped keys forming a tower shape, and the patterns around his body formed a route around his body. Seeing this, Chen Hao suddenly realized that the so-called "back" in the poem originally refers to the back of a person, but this...
Chen Hao was surprised and felt that he was ridiculous, and he was just hitting like this. However, Chen Hao was not grateful for this. Because of his hit, he lost something he shouldn't have lost. If he could go back in time, he would rather not be curious!
"Master, what does this have to do with the two calling disciples the young masters?" Although Chen Hao guessed some clues, he was still not sure, so he needed to ask Master Ming and Master to understand.
Master Minghe said in a verse of Buddha: "Amitabha, the young master doesn't know anything. The former master once said that if anyone can break this situation, it will be the legitimate origin of Chen's family!"
Chen Hao was stunned when he heard this, thinking that what is the logic? If a chess master breaks your endgame, he will be the one in the Chen family? So Chen Hao retorted: "The master's words are a bit arbitrary. There are many talented people in the world, how can we measure it by this?"
Master Minghe smiled slightly, pointed to the crucial piece on the chessboard and asked: "Do you still remember the scene of holding this piece that day?"
Master Minghe’s reminder made Chen Hao fall into deep thought. He looked at the chess piece he put on and recalled the scene of the day. He watched the chess piece for a long time and found a way to crack it, but when he reached into the chess jar, he found that there was only one piece, and it was an immovable piece. Finally, under Master Minghe’s tip, he dripped a drop of blood before pinching the piece and then broke the game.
