A crisp gunshot knocked down a golden leopard. What was even stranger was that a little boy with handsome eyes was lying on the leopard. The person who shot the leopard was a burly man about thirty years old.
I was petrified by the scene in front of me.
"Eh!"
The man squatted down and stared at the child, while the boy on the leopard's back shed two lines of hot tears and cried silently. He put down the gun, picked up the boy and asked gently: "My child, was this female leopard raising you?"
"Yes." The child wiped away his tears with his arms, struggled down and lay on the leopard, and cried bitterly: "It raised me. When I was hungry, it found food for me, and when I was thirsty, it carried me to the spring to drink water.
.Without it, I might have starved to death in the deep mountains and wild forests three years ago."
"Eh!" The strong man was startled. The Nine-Dragon Jade Pendant on the child's chest made him exclaim. He simply couldn't believe that the instructions left by his ancestors thousands of years ago appeared at this moment. The Nine-Dragon Jade Pendant involved a whole family.
The treasure that has been piled up for thousands of years also involves the fate of his Jiang family, Fang family and Lu family.
"Your surname is Huang?" The strong man hesitated for a long time and finally asked.
"My surname is Meng, from Mencius."
The strong man looked at the child in surprise. Could it be that this jade pendant was not the one mentioned by his ancestors? A slightly disappointed Jiang Shilin asked: "Child, what is your name?"
"Meng Da." Meng Da was conscious, but he didn't know how to answer. Looking at the strong man's dress and the rifle in his hand, he knew that it was the Republic of China period. But he didn't know how he should live in the future, and he couldn't bear it.
The tears flowed out.
"Oh my God, is it true that everything passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years is true?" The strong man was amazed and asked in disbelief, "Where are your parents?"
"Dead, eaten alive by leopards." Meng Da had no choice but to lie. He found that he looked about four or five years old, and started to cry again thinking about never seeing his parents again.
"Don't cry, child, your life is long enough." The strong man comforted Meng Da in his arms and introduced himself: "My name is Jiang Shilin. Since both of your parents are dead, I will not leave you alone. My child, follow
I'm going home."
Jiang Shilin, a cadet in the first batch of Huangpu Military Academy, served as the political instructor of the 1st Battalion and 3rd Company of the 2nd Teaching Regiment. During the Eastern Expedition to Hepo, Guangdong, he was rescued from the dead by an old man who buried the corpses and returned to Kaihua County. He and the Xia family in the county
Miss Xia Jingyi got married. Hunting in the mountains and forests is not his profession, but he cannot forget the rules and missions left by his ancestors.
The miraculous appearance of the Nine Dragons Jade Pendant allowed him to start a new plan with little Mengda in his arms. He could not go to that mysterious place, let alone tell Lu Changqing and Fang Zhenshan what he had discovered. Huge wealth would make human nature greedy.
It might cause a fight between brothers!
"I have to hide this matter and raise little Mengda. I have to observe in secret and figure out this weird thing! Is it safe to keep Mengda by my side? What should I do?" Jiang Shilin said bitterly.
After thinking for a long time, he finally made a bold decision. He stood up and said to Meng Da: "Let's go, I will take you back to Xia's house!"
Xia Mansion is located on the bank of the northwest gate of Kaihua County. It is a courtyard with three entrances. When Meng Da walked in, he secretly thought happily: "My ancestors have been very kind to me. If I lived in a poor family, I might really succeed."
The devil incarnate."
"Where did the child come from?" An old man walked towards him, with a beard flowing on his chest and wearing a blue robe.
"Father-in-law, this is an orphan." Jiang Shilin recounted the incident when he encountered a leopard carrying Meng Da on his back while hunting.
Xia Langzhong is Jiang Shilin's father-in-law and Xia Jingyi's father. Their family has been practicing medicine and business for generations, and they are considered the largest family in Kaihua County. Unfortunately, they only have two daughters. The eldest daughter Xia Jingyi got married at the age of 21.
Jiang Shilin, whose second daughter is only six years old. Hearing that Meng Da was an orphan, the old Chinese doctor squatted down in surprise.
"Hey, what a clever kid! How about being my son and the young master of the Xia family, kid?"
"I call you dad, but my surname cannot be Xia. My surname is Meng Da." Meng Da blinked his eyes slyly. He could not betray his ancestors.
"This—" Xia Langzhong hesitated in embarrassment.
"Father-in-law, his surname can be Meng, and the future child can be surnamed Xia." Jiang Shilin had an idea. Even if this sentence was said to Mr. Xia, it was also a request for Meng Da.
"I promise you!" Meng Da answered first, stretching out his little arms to hug Xia Langzhong's neck: "Dad, I will be like your biological son, and I will repay the kindness of my adoptive parents!"
"Hey!" Xia Langzhong looked at Meng Da's sincere smile in surprise. A four or five-year-old child can say such a thing. Is he a little prodigy?
"Hahahaha!" Jiang Shilin stroked Meng Da's head with his palm, and said to the child: "Kowtow a few times, and I will take you to meet your two sisters and mother."
The Xia Mansion was laughing and laughing, and they were all happy to have adopted an adopted son. Only then did Mengda know that it was now 1926 AD. But he was very depressed. Kaihua County is located in a deep mountainous area. Will there be a chance for him to kill the Japanese in the future? Jiang Shilin
Seeing his worried look, I asked curiously: "You are worried at such a young age?"
"Brother-in-law, I want to learn how to shoot with you." Meng Da woke up from deep thought and made his request with an idea.
"Ah! No! You can't learn martial arts, you have to learn our family's medical skills. Your eldest sister is a Western medicine doctor who returned from studying in the UK, and I am a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner." When Xia Langzhong heard that Meng Da wanted to learn Jiang Shilin's marksmanship, he almost learned from Jiang Shilin.
Fell on the chair.
Meng Da looked at Jiang Shilin with disappointment, hoping that he could deal with it. Xia Jingyi sneered and said: "Dad, I suggest that I should learn both literature and martial arts. Isn't it good to have both?"
"Yes, in these troubled times, I should learn some self-defense skills." Jiang Shilin took the opportunity to plead for Meng Da.
Xia Langzhong was speechless. Meng Da jumped up happily, pinched his waist and said: "Brother-in-law, I will give you a set of Shaolin martial arts boxing for you to see."
Meng Da didn't wait for everyone to answer, and showed off the fighting skills he had learned in his previous life. Jiang Shilin was surprised. Meng Da was very skilled in the fist and kick skills of Huhu Feng. He thought in his heart that this child must have inherited martial arts. After watching it, he felt
Secretly thinking: "I can't be reckless, I must know whether this matter is true or false!"
"It's so rare to be born with divine power and have such good kung fu!" Xia Langzhong was also a connoisseur of goods. He walked over and hugged the child who had finished punching, and praised him excitedly.
Meng Da became the young master of the Xia family, and the entire mansion was celebrating this event. Only Jiang Shilin kept observing the four or five-year-old child, and quietly left the mansion late at night and walked towards a mysterious place. A man wearing black
The masked man in night clothes flashed shrewd eyes and asked coldly: "Are you sure?"
"That piece of Nine Dragons jade pendant cannot be fake, and his surname is Meng. I have secretly inspected the treasured garment on his body, and it is completely consistent with the last words left by his ancestors." Jiang Shilin did not dare to hide anything, and put his
Discovery spoke out.
"Ask the head coach Fang Zhenshan to go with you. This matter must be kept secret, let alone tell him about it. Bring him to see me in ten years."
"yes!"
·············
Time flies, Meng Da has spent ten years in Xia Mansion unknowingly. He has become a handsome young man. Although he is a little young, he has profound knowledge and good skills. In these ten years,
He took in a group of teenagers and carefully trained them. The front yard of the Xia Mansion became a training ground, and with Jiang Shilin's efforts, dozens of rifles were purchased for shooting practice.
Meng Da returned home from Nanjing. He had not seen these brothers and sisters for three years. He walked into the house, took off his clothes and picked up a rifle. A pair of twin brothers and sisters stood next to Fang Zhenshan, staring at the young master's shooting.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Okay!" Jiang Shilin came over. Meng Da had been practicing shooting since he was ten years old. He had a set of weird methods, and the military generals who came out of Huangpu Military Academy also admired him.
"Brother-in-law, my mentor often asked me to shoot in the barracks and serve as their instructor." Meng Da put down his gun and proudly told Jiang Shilin about his three years of study in Nanjing.
"I know!" People from the Xia Mansion often visited, and he knew everything about Meng Da's home in Zhu Jiahua. He pointed at the brother and sister and said, "Look, they have grown up after not seeing each other for three years, and their martial arts skills are almost as good as
Master Fang who surpasses you."
"Really?" Meng Da happily walked up to the black-faced boy, patted him on the shoulder and asked: "Lu Shijie, show me your hands."
"No!" Lu Shijie was so frightened that he stepped back. He knew that the young master wanted to use him as a sparring partner again.
Meng Da did not force the boy, but turned around and looked at the more than forty men and women he had worked so hard to take in. They were a group of little Tai Sui in troubled times, a wolf team formed by thirty-six boys, and a group of eighteen butterflies formed by eighteen girls. He was there
After thinking about it secretly, he made up his mind and said to Jiang Shilin: "Brother-in-law, send them to Japan!"
"Everyone is going?" Jiang Shilin was shocked. This was a huge expense.
"You advance this money first, and I will double it back to you in the future." Meng Da said without doubt.
"Bah, you are not good at business, you are just as good as a robber!" Xia Jing and her sister walked over, and the little girl sarcastically mocked her third brother.
"Prepare the bathtub, I want to take a bath!" Meng Da looked at Xia Jing mischievously, already laughing in his heart.
"Ah!" Xia Jing turned her back in shame and anger. Ever since Meng Da walked into the Xia Mansion, she, the second young lady of the Xia family, has become a servant girl.
"You've become an adult and you still act like this." Xia Jingyi chuckled and tapped Meng Da's forehead with her finger.
"Master, let me give you warm water!" Lu Shijie's sister Lu Ping came over and lowered her head and said to Meng Da.
"How dare you!" Xia Jing suddenly jumped over and said with raised eyebrows: "I have already boiled the water, you are not allowed to rub his back!"
"ah!"
"Hahahaha!" The first person who entered the yard laughed heartily. Xia Jing was used to this kind of labor. She was not willing to let others serve Meng Da...
Late at night, Jiang Shilin woke up the young man who was having a sweet dream. Meng Da opened his eyes and saw his eldest brother-in-law. He turned over and got up and asked: "Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
"Yes, it's about your life experience. Come on, I'll take you to meet someone."
"Are you going to the Lion Rock?" Meng Da asked slyly.
Jiang Shilin took a step back in fright, and asked with confusion on his face: "No one in the world knows about Xiongshi Rock. Where did you hear it?"
"My surname is Meng. To be precise, my surname should be Huang. I have grown up, and only people with the surname Meng know the secret of Lion Rock. Back then, my ancestors once stole the Qin Mausoleum, the Maoling Mausoleum, and the Qianling Mausoleum.
, Han and Tang dynasties, all of them are prominent. The Qin Mausoleum is the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, the Maoling Mausoleum is the mausoleum of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the Qianling Mausoleum is the joint tomb of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and Wu Zetian. The owners of the mausoleums are all incredible historical figures.
Also, after the rebel army captured Chang'an and looted the Tang Dynasty palace, where did all the gold and silver treasures go? The 500 highly skilled guards were not wiped out by the Tang Dynasty. The place where they hid was the Lion Rock. If
My guess is good, their mission is to protect the underground palace, and as a mausoleum guard, they are responsible for guarding the treasures."
Meng Da's words made Jiang Shilin sigh: "You are right, but what I want to tell you is that the last words left by our ancestors are not to hand over the treasure to you. Our three families have protected the treasure for thousands of years, and we have never
Never seen the treasure."
"Peasants of all ages have taken desperate risks to resist cruel and tyrannical rulers, and rebel leaders have all been cruel and barbaric, killing countless people. However, the evil deeds of Huang Chao, who used human flesh as food for food, are by no means a battle in the ordinary sense of the word, but a genocide of humanity.
The massacre. It was precisely because he savored the stormy years after becoming a monk and watched the chaotic world with cold eyes, and finally realized that rogue bandits cannot achieve great things, and killing cannot be directed at his own compatriots!"
Jiang Shilin looked at Meng Da in surprise and said happily: "You are very smart. It is amazing that you can understand right and wrong at such a young age. Let's go to Lion Rock!"
"I can't go!" Meng Da held the Nine Dragon Jade Pendant on his chest with his hand and said firmly: "I want to go abroad!"
