Yan Shouyi never thought that this Ancestral Dragon Sword could be related to him.
It happened that Lin Zitong was also "present", so the two of them could witness and analyze the situation together.
"Let's talk first." Lin Zitong said proactively.
Ma Jinxuan walked into the house and found that Lin Zitong was taking a bath in the video. She couldn't help but blush: "How about I come over later?"
"What time is it? It won't be dawn no matter how late it is." Yan Shouyi said, dumbfounded.
"It's okay." Lin Zitong temporarily turned off the video, put on a clean and soft bathrobe, and then reopened the video.
Yan Shouyi poured a cup of tea for Ma Jinxuan and couldn't hold it back:
"You said you were entrusted by someone, who asked you to go to Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum to get the Ancestral Dragon Sword?"
The smart Lin Zitong said directly: "Do you still need to think about it? Of course it's your dad."
The only person next to Yan Shouyi who interacts with the Ma family siblings is Yan Qiu.
In fact, Yan Shouyi also guessed that it was his father who requested it, but he still wanted to hear Ma Jinxuan's personal confirmation.
Ma Jinxuan nodded: "Last time in Chenjiacun, your father gave us some guidance and gave us the honor to enter Qin Shihuang's tomb. In exchange, we retrieved the Ancestral Dragon Sword for you."
"This exchange doesn't feel like a good deal for you!" Yan Shouyi complained, "Then you can go to Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum just by buying a ticket. Do you need my dad to give you any advice?"
"We only bought tickets to go to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses. No one has ever entered the real Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. What your father pointed out to us is a secret passage that leads directly to the inside of the mausoleum." Ma Jinxuan explained.
Yan Shou suddenly realized it and felt it was reasonable.
For Captain Mo Jin, the emperor's tomb is a more attractive place than money, power, wine and beautiful women. They are proud to have entered the emperor's tomb.
Not to mention that what Yan Qiu allowed them to enter this time was the first tomb of Qin Shihuang in history that unified the six kingdoms.
Not to mention asking them to bring back the Ancestral Dragon Sword, even if they were asked to take out Qin Shihuang's body, I'm afraid the Ma family brothers and sisters wouldn't even frown.
But what Yan Shouyi couldn't understand was why his father went to so much trouble to get an Ancestral Dragon Sword from Qin Shihuang's mausoleum as a gift to him?
Lin Zitong said: "Is it because your birthday is coming soon?"
Yan Shou's eyes jumped wildly: "I haven't heard of giving anything to someone to die on my birthday. Besides, I'm just celebrating my birthday. There's no need to give me something like the Ancestral Dragon Sword..."
No matter how he thought about it, Yan Shouyi still thought it was too exaggerated.
Ma Jinxuan said: "I still can't figure it out, so I still hope you can open the sword box as soon as possible and take a look at the Ancestral Dragon Sword with your own eyes. Maybe you can get some clues."
"That's right."
It is impossible for Yan Chou to let the Ma family brother and sister get a treasure like the Zulong Sword for no reason.
There must be some purpose behind doing this.
All the secrets are hidden in this Ancestral Dragon Sword.
So Yan Shouyi took out the huge sword box from his bag and placed it on the table. Then he asked Ma Jinxuan to help hold the mobile phone and let Lin Zitong watch the "unboxing" process of the Zulong Sword.
Ma Jinxuan was a little helpless. She thought that Yan Shou couldn't hold back his curiosity for a while and opened the sword box himself.
Unexpectedly, seven days had passed and he didn't open it to take a look, so he had to come over to urge him.
The sword box is made of bronze, showing a simple bronze green color with red rust stains. The pattern is a cloud-riding unicorn accompanied by two dragons. Although the image is not as full and lifelike as modern paintings, it has a mysterious charm.
Yan Shouyi stroked the sword box and said, "This sword box..."
"The sword box matches the Ancestral Dragon Sword, which was brought from the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang." Ma Jinxuan explained.
Yan Shou nodded.
He touched the hidden buckle of the sword box, and with a slight push, the sword box made a crisp sound, and a crack popped out of the originally tight sword box.
"This craftsmanship is so natural that it's incredible." Yan Shouyi, suffering from an occupational disease, couldn't help but comment.
The Zulong Sword was a product of the Qin Dynasty. Iron smelting technology was not yet mature at that time, let alone steel and alloys, so the Zulong Sword in the sword box must be a bronze sword.
The most famous bronze sword at present is the Goujian Sword of King Yue. This bronze sword has been buried for more than two thousand years. When it was unearthed, it was still strong. Not only was it not rusty, but the blade was sharp and the inscriptions on the sword were clearly visible.
The most remarkable thing is that it is said that when the Yue King Goujian Sword was unearthed, it was originally bent by the pressure of the upper pottery. When the staff removed the pottery, the Yue King Goujian Sword instantly returned to its original state!
After more than two thousand years, this bronze sword may still be able to kill enemies in battle.
If the Yue King Goujian's sword is like this, what will Qin Shihuang's Ancestral Dragon Sword look like?
Yan Shou swallowed and opened the sword box with both hands very solemnly.
Inside the sword box, there was a golden dragon-patterned silk cushion, and a bronze sword about one meter long was placed inside!
This sword has a slender blade with a central ridge, two sharp blades, a concave forward arc, two convex hoops on the stem, concentric circles of round jewelry, pine green gems inlaid on the sword grid, and even more on the blade.
Diamond hidden check pattern.
The first time he saw the Ancestral Dragon Sword, there was a dragon energy rushing towards his face, and Yan Shouyi seemed to hear the sound of dragon roars on Longhu Mountain again!
"The Ancestral Dragon Sword is indeed the sword of the emperor!" Yan Shouyi said with emotion.
Just looking at this sword, Yan Shouyi couldn't help but recall the heroic scenes of Qin Shihuang's victory in unifying the six countries in his mind.
Emperor Qin swept Liuhe, what a majestic sight!
The flying sword cuts through the floating clouds, and all the princes come to the west!
Lin Zitong is far away in Rongcheng, but just from the video, she can feel the momentum of the Ancestral Dragon Sword.
She murmured: "What kind of world was there more than two thousand years ago? It was just a sword, but it preserved this dragon energy for more than two thousand years!"
Ma Jinxuan said with shame: "This is just the Ancestral Dragon Sword. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you would never have imagined what my brother and I saw in the tomb of Qin Shihuang..."
When she said this, Ma Jinxuan showed a look of longing. She seemed to want to go back to Qin Shihuang's mausoleum to take a good look.
After Yan Shouyi confirmed that there were no other mechanisms in the sword box, he gently picked up the Ancestral Dragon Sword.
Due to the material of bronze, most bronze swords can only be about half a meter long, even the sword of King Goujian of Yue.
If it is too long, the sword blade will break easily.
However, the length of this Ancestral Dragon Sword actually reached about ninety centimeters, which was no different from the normal length of swords in later generations.
It is worthy of being made by the world's famous craftsmen.
If you look carefully, the two characters "Ding Qin" carved by Li Si back then are still so clearly visible, as if they were carved just yesterday.
Flicking the blade of the sword, there is a buzzing sound.
"What a good sword..." Yan Shouyi said with emotion.
