Chapter 0040 Thunder Stone and Hidden Door
Fang Feiyang followed Song Longshan silently, with questions in his heart but he didn't dare to say them out. There was such a secret room in the master's house, and this scene from a movie plot actually appeared in front of him. Since it was a secret room, it was
It is a place that does not want outsiders to know, and its appearance represents privacy and secrets. The old man asked himself to follow him, and he knew that this was an affirmation of himself, and he must have something to say to himself next.
Sure enough, the old man took a step forward first, walked to a rectangular incense table, lit three incense sticks and bowed respectfully to a tablet. Fang Feiyang took a closer look and saw a dark middle of the tablet from top to bottom.
Inscribed in eight regular script characters are the words "The positions of the ancestors of the Hidden Sect in the past dynasties".
"Hidden door?"
Fang Feiyang secretly wondered what this meant? Is it an ancient martial arts sect? Or a hidden family? The first time he met the old man was in a metasequoia forest. The old man showed great power and defeated a blue-eyed man with his bare hands.
The yellow-haired foreigner was beaten and fled in panic. The old man's invincible image at that time was deeply imprinted in Fang Feiyang's mind.
Although the old man never mentioned that he knew martial arts again, Fang Feiyang knew that his master must be a hidden master. Now that he saw the word "Hidden Sect", he couldn't help but associate it with the martial arts sect in his mind.
.
"Feiyang, come on, come forward and kneel down..."
Just when Fang Feiyang's thoughts were wandering, Song Longshan's majestic voice sounded in his ears.
Fang Feiyang didn't know what he meant, but he still knelt down and kowtowed three times to the memorial tablet on the incense table. At this moment, he found that there was an ink painting hanging in front of the incense table. Judging from the yellowing of the paper,
, it must be a long time ago. There are also a few large characters on the border of the portrait: "Portrait of Hanlin Bachelor Cunzhong Gong".
"Cunzhong? This name looks so familiar. I must have heard of it before."
As soon as Fang Feiyang read these words, he desperately mobilized his memory information, hoping to find the corresponding person. This ancient-looking ink portrait depicts a bust of an old man with gray hair and beard.
Wearing a square top scarf with a strip hanging down to the shoulders, a peng feather inserted on one side of the crown, an official uniform with a square heart-shaped collar on the upper body, and a black leather track with a white curtain around the waist.
Judging from the attire of the old man in the portrait, he seems to be a court official of the Song Dynasty. What is the relationship between this old man and the hidden door on the tablet?
Song Longshan saw Fang Feiyang looking at the portrait in front of the incense table in a daze. He stepped forward to help him up and said, "The old man in the portrait is the founder of our Yinmen, Shen Kuo and Shen Cunzhong."
"Ah?! Shen Kuo, a politician in the Northern Song Dynasty and the author of "Mengxi Bi Tan"!" Fang Feiyang exclaimed.
Which sect is this? When did the famous scientists and politicians of the Northern Song Dynasty establish a sect? Why does this sound so incredible? Fang Feiyang was a little confused. At first glance, he read the "Hanlin Bachelor" on the portrait.
When Mr. Song said his name, Fang Feiyang immediately recalled such a famous figure in history. But it was stuck in his mind.
How could such a famous historical figure be related to the "hidden door" of the incense table tablet?
"Do you have a lot of questions in your mind now? Don't you understand why we enshrine Mr. Cun Zhong as the Patriarch?" Song Longshan said in a low voice with a serious expression.
"Yeah, I'm a little confused."
"Then let me tell you... Originally I accepted you as my apprentice, largely because you once saved my life. In addition, according to my observation, you have a certain talent in antique appraisal.
I am diligent and studious, so I made an exception to accept you as an outer disciple. At that time, I did not expect you to develop much, so I did not intend to tell you the core secrets of the Hidden Sect. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, you
What surprises me the most about being able to make a name for yourself in antique collecting is that you found a thunder stone..."
"Thunder Stone?..." The magical football-shaped stone immediately appeared in front of Fang Feiyang's eyes.
"That's right, the stone that heats up when it enters water and turns the water green is called the thunder stone. According to the notes of the ancestor, it should be the remnant of a meteorite from an outer galaxy."
Song Longshan came to the southeast corner of the secret room and pulled out an ancient book from a wooden box in the corner. Fang Feiyang saw that the ancient book was incomplete, only dozens of thin pages thick, and there were several books inside.
There are some other manuscripts, and the cover of this notebook seems to have been re-reinforced later, using a parchment envelope, with the words "Mengxi Bi Tan Volume 20" written smoothly on it.
Song Longshan opened one of the pages, and inside it was clearly recorded in small regular letters: "In the first year of Zhiping, during the day of Riyu in Changzhou, there was a loud sound like thunder in the sky, a big star, almost as big as the moon, seen in the southeast. After a while, there was another earthquake,
Moving to the southwest...you can see from far and near, the light of the fire shines brightly in the sky...there is only a hole in the ground as big as a cup, very deep. Looking down, you can see the stars in it, shining brightly, gradually dimming for a long time, still
The heat cannot come close. After a long time, the orifice was exposed, and a round stone was found, which was still hot. It was as big as a fist, dark green in color, and the whole body was smooth...
Shen Kuo's notes clearly record this stone falling from the sky. The most mysterious phenomenon is that it is an energy stone. Shen Kuo's scientific achievements at that time were multifaceted. He studied astronomy and geography intensively. After some research,
After studying the meteorite, it was discovered that this fist-sized stone contains huge and amazing energy. When put into water, it can boil a tank of well water, and the clear water will turn green.
Shen Kuo also tried to guide the unknown energy in the stone. He found that the fluctuations contained in this inconspicuous stone can be understood and resonate with the fluctuations in a person's own. Playing with it for a long time can enhance personal energy and eliminate diseases.
Reduce disasters and strengthen his body and mind. Finally, he named this extraterrestrial meteorite "Thunder Sound Stone".
"It's incredible! It actually has the effect of curing diseases. What's the principle?" Fang Feiyang felt that his brain was a bit insufficient.
"I don't know what the principle is. I estimate that according to modern scientific theory, it can be explained that this kind of meteorite from an alien galaxy contains special radioactive elements. Long-term contact with the body can promote blood circulation and metabolism, which is what Shen Kuo said in
What is recorded in the notes resonates with the human body.”
Song Longshan had obviously thought about this issue more than once, and he told Fang Feiyang the conjecture he had pondered over the past decades.
"Master, have you seen Leiyin Stone before?"
"Yeah! I can recognize at a glance that the photo you sent me in the MMS message is a thunder stone. In addition to relying on the description of our sect's records, our Yinmen also has a thunder stone that has been passed down from generation to generation, which is the ancestor.
The fist-sized stone recorded in the notes... It's a pity that this small piece of thunder stone has turned into pieces and no longer exists." Song Longshan replied heartbrokenly.
Having said this, Song Longshan turned to the back of the notebook with a sad expression, and pulled out a black and white photo from the page. The photo on it was a stone the size of an adult's fist. The surface was smooth without any gaps, but because it was old black and white In the photo, the appearance and color of the stone cannot be seen.
"Huh?" As soon as Fang Feiyang saw the Leiyin Stone inherited from the Hidden Sect in the old photo, an unusually familiar feeling of intimacy suddenly poured into his heart, and a warm current seemed to flash in his chest. This feeling was similar to It was exactly the same as the rugby-shaped thunder stone I stepped on at Shi Yuan Zhai, except that last time in the store, my whole body was wrapped in warmth and my blood was boiling. This time, it only flickered in my chest, and then Just disappeared.
Fang Feiyang had no time to recall this familiar feeling and asked in surprise: "This is the Thunder Sound Stone from a hundred years ago, huh?!!! It turned into pieces?..."
"Yes, that night in the metasequoia forest, when you reminded me to be careful about bombs, the thunder stone in the box disappeared forever with the explosion of the grenade." Song Longshan shook his head helplessly and said.
It turned out that that night in the metasequoia forest, Fang Feiyang saw the old man chasing a foreigner with blue eyes and yellow hair because the guy was an international thief who sneaked into the old man’s house and stole the Hidden Gate Thunder Stone. In the end, a few days later, After a duel, the cunning thief knew he was no match for the old man. He pretended to hand over the stolen items, but secretly fired a grenade hidden in the thunder stone box and threw it at the old man.
