Chapter 624: Cornucopia
Master Jiu told Zhao Xu that he didn't know if the treasure Shen Wansan got was a "treasure bowl." However, according to the records of the ancestors of the five major families, Shen Wansan did get a treasure. As for what it was, it was unknown. .
Jiuye narrated to Zhao Xu: At that time, there were many versions of the story about Shen Wansan's "treasure basin" among the people. But the two that have been passed down are closer to reality: one is that Shen Wansan saw someone holding it Shen Wansan sold hundreds of frogs and planned to kill them. Shen Wansan couldn't bear to see these frogs killed, so he bought all the frogs with money and put them in the pond so that they could swim freely. .
Then one day, Shen Wansan passed by the pond and saw a lot of frogs, standing in a circle on top of an earthenware basin; they croaked, as if to say: "Shen Wansan, Shen Wansan, please come to the earthenware basin." You take it home!" So Shen Wansan took the earthenware basin home and used it as a washing utensil.
One time when he was washing his hands in an earthen basin, the ring he was wearing fell into the earthen basin. He didn't notice it until the next morning and went to look for the ring in the earthen basin. At this time, Shen Wansan suddenly I found that the entire pot was filled with rings.
Shen Wansan was very surprised, so he put gold and silver in the earthenware basin and tried it. As a result, the entire earthenware basin was filled with gold and silver! It turned out that this earthenware basin was the so-called cornucopia! Therefore, Shen Wansan's wealth was as rich as any country. No one can compare.
Another version is that Lu Deyuan, a wealthy family in Suzhou City in the Yuan Dynasty, was rich in Jiangzuo. He admired Shen Wansan's intelligence and business credibility. He felt that he was old and had seen through the world. If the huge property in his hands was not passed on to others, , once the situation was turbulent, it would lead to disaster. So he gave it all to Shen Wansan, and he went to Kaiyun Hall by Chenghu Lake to become a Taoist priest until his death. Shen Wansan got this huge sum of money from Lu Deyuan, which made him even more powerful. .
Some versions say that Shen Wansan's wife saw a basin floating in the river, with two goldfish swimming around in it. Later, after taking the basin home, if she put a grain of something in it, she could get more goldfish. Shen Wansan took advantage of this "treasure pot" and became the richest man in the Ming Dynasty.
After Master Jiu finished telling Zhao Xu, he smiled and said, "Of course, these legends are just rumors and cannot be verified. However, according to our ancestors, the wealth Shen Wansan left in the underground palace hides a secret from heaven. It’s a big secret. Whether that secret is about the cornucopia or not, I don’t know.”
Zhao Xu already has a net worth of hundreds of millions, but he has no intention of coveting the "cornucopia". However, he is very interested in the legendary life of Shen Wansan.
The story that Shen Wansan is so rich that he can rival the country has been spread among the people.
Originally, Zhao Xu didn't want to be interested in things that happened hundreds of years ago. But Shen Wansan's matter was related to his ancestors' matters. It was not only related to his ancestors' matters, but also related to his personal safety, and even His family was also involved.
Zhao Xu absolutely does not want his wife Li Qingqing and daughter Xiao Yezi to be put in danger. He knows that blindly forbearing is not the answer, and he must take the initiative to solve the problem.
After listening to Master Jiu's story, Zhao Xu suddenly thought of what Canjian Hua said about the "sacred altar" in the provincial capital. He wondered if the two were connected.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xu told Master Jiu about Canjian Hua's discovery in the provincial capital. He asked Master Jiu what he thought of this matter.
After listening to Zhao Xu's words, Master Jiu looked very solemn and said to Zhao Xu: "Zhao Xu, according to you, that man from the altar wants to kill the descendants of the five great families as his own mission, so he must be our enemy.
However, after so many years, I still don’t know whether they are from the East Factory, the West Factory, or the Jinyiwei people.”
"Master Jiu, are there really people from Dongchang or Xichang in this world? Aren't those people eunuchs? Are there any descendants?" Zhao Xu asked Master Jiu in confusion.
Master Jiu smiled and said: "Zhao Xu! There are actually many people from ancient tribes in this world. If you think about it, take our five major families as an example. Our ancestors were from the Ming Dynasty. By the way, you are not
Do you know a doctor named Hua Yi? Her ancestor is Hua Tuo during the Three Kingdoms period. In addition, there is a master Lu in the provincial capital. He is a skilled craftsman. Her ancestor is even more amazing. He is the founder of craftsmen Lu Ban. In addition to
In addition, Shaolin, Wudang, these are all martial arts sects handed down. As for whether the people from Dongchang and Xichang exist? I can tell you that they do exist, but they exist in another identity.
It’s just in the world. Although these people are eunuchs, they have adopted and trained many killers. The mission of these people is to eradicate the descendants of our five great families. So, you must be careful."
Zhao Xu suddenly felt frightened and uneasy after hearing this. He had never thought that his origin meant that he was destined to be killed.
After listening to Master Jiu's words, Zhao Xu asked Master Jiu: "Master Jiu, now that we know our opponent, why don't our five great families take the initiative to attack?"
"Take the initiative?" Master Jiu smiled and said: "Although the strength of our five major families has grown, don't forget that the strength of our opponents has also grown. What's more, we are in the light and they are in the dark. But, you said
This altar is indeed suspicious."
"So, I want to go to the provincial capital for a trip!" Zhao Xu said.
When Master Jiu heard this, he was shocked and asked: "Are you going to the provincial capital?"
"Yes! I want to go to the provincial capital to see this altar in person. Because there is a man named Shura Dao in the altar. When I was in the provincial capital, he assassinated me. Therefore, I must find out whether he discovered
Even though they have discovered my true identity as one of the five great families, they still have personal hatred for me."
"I heard you say that there are three masters on the Heavenly Ranking and four masters on the Earthly Ranking at the Holy Altar. In addition, we don't know who else there are. If you want to go to the provincial capital to break into the Holy Altar, it is like going deep into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den. This is too dangerous.
.”
"Don't worry, Master Jiu! Nong Quan's cultivation level has reached the top of the Heaven Ranking. Besides, I have Mr. Kong, the number one person on the Heaven Ranking, to help me, and Xiaodao to help me. Just these three masters on the Heaven Ranking are enough for the opponent to eat.
Damn it. Moreover, I have just recruited a master ranked eighth on the Earth Ranking, Can Jian Hua."
Master Jiu's eyes lit up after hearing this.
It can be said that the masters on the "Martial God List!" are hard to find at high prices. You don't have to be rich to recruit the masters on the "Martial God List", you must have a certain level of strength. Some wealthy consortiums can't recruit them.
If you are a master on the "people list", you will be awesome and lightning fast. Real masters are recruited by some special organizations.
Zhao Xu was able to recruit Canjian Hua, who was ranked eighth on the "Earth Ranking". This was undoubtedly great news for Zhao Xu.
Master Jiu took Zhao Xu's hand and said softly: "Xiao Xu! The resources around you are really great. Only you can hope to reunite our five aristocratic families. You
Remember to keep growing while not exposing your identity
My own strength must be as strong as possible. Only in this way can I defeat those factory dogs. Otherwise, with their methods, once they find the target person, they will kill my entire family. I have already received the soul-chasing dart, and I am afraid my life will not be long. I
