When Bian Dashou saw someone trying to kill him, he fled back to his hometown of Renqiu, Hebei Province. During Li Zicheng's retreat, he sent troops to Renqiu to capture Bianshou. The villagers advised him to escape, but he refused. He said: "I did this. If I escape, they will take revenge on my relatives and fellow villagers. One person will do the work and the other will bear the responsibility!" In this way, Bian Dashou was captured by Li Zicheng's troops. But it is not easy to trap a real dragon. So soon, Bian Dashou ran away. At that time, Li Zicheng was already defeated and on the run and had no time to catch anyone. In the end, King Chuang, who was good at gouging people to death with a hoe, was also gouged to death by farmers with a hoe!
After that, the Qing troops were victorious and the Qing Dynasty was established. But there is a mystery that the shamans of the Qing Dynasty did not understand, that is, did Dashou really not understand how to cut off the dragon's veins, or did he do it on purpose? Did he have a dragon-slaying sword? If he did it intentionally and he had the Dragon-Slaying Sword, then he could cut off Li Zicheng's dragon vein, just as he could cut off the Qing Dynasty's dragon vein! At that time, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to sit still! Judging from the current information, there is no sign that he holds the Dragon-Slaying Sword. Someone came up with the idea to kill Bian Dashou to avoid future troubles!
The emperor of the Qing Dynasty refused. On the one hand, he was a hero in the Qing Dynasty by cutting off the dragon veins of the intruders. If he were to kill him, he would lose the support of the people. On the other hand, if God really wanted to cut off the dragon veins of the Qing Dynasty and kill him, this mission would fall into the hands of the people. For other dragons, it would be even more inappropriate if he is in the dark and we are in the light! Finally, it was decided to invite Bian Dashou to be an official again and send someone to monitor him secretly. This way, he could be tied up with official duties and keep him busy with official duties and have no time for other things. As a result, Bian Dashou became the magistrate of Xiuwu County, and was later promoted to the prefect of Taiyuan. But being under surveillance for a long time is not a pleasant experience. Bian Dashou suddenly reported illness and returned home to his hometown of Renqiu, Hebei Province. Of course, surveillance was indispensable. However, even so, no clues were found from him until his death.
When Bian Dashou was dying, he called his two sons to his bedside and confessed: "I have scouted a cemetery, which is more than 200 miles east of Jingdong. It's called Yahong Bridge. You can find it with the land deed." , bury me by the river, remember to bury me naked, no clothes! You two brothers can guard the grave and farm the land there!"
Bian Dashou's two sons were filial sons, so they followed their father's last wish and took their father's body to the cemetery that their father had chosen previously - the bank of the Returning Home River. During the burial, Bian Dashou's two sons were worried. According to the old man's will, it would be extremely unfilial to bury him naked. The two brothers discussed it all night and finally decided to bury the old man in a pair of trousers.
His family was in Renqiu, he was buried in Jingdong, and he was buried naked, which naturally aroused the suspicion of the court, so the court sent two commanders, Lei and Zhang, to race horses and occupy a circle in an open area south of Bianjia Tomb. At that time, in the Qing Dynasty, the enclosed land was owned by the imperial court. Both Lei and Zhang occupied the property and established a village there. At that time, the enclosed land was the Feng family's cemetery, and the Feng family was forced to move south. Because of the great power of the Qing Dynasty, the village built by Lei and Zhang was named Dafeng Village, and the Feng family that moved away was named Xiaofeng Village. On the surface, Tutong Lei and Zhang are no different from ordinary officers who occupy land and establish villages. In fact, they have a secret mission, which is to monitor the movements of Bianjiafen.
Unexpectedly, the two brothers here farmed in an orderly manner, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, without any flaws. The Qing court was always worried, so the shaman came to check in person. The shaman's boat went down the river to Dafeng Village and happened to pass by Bianjia Tomb. Someone who knows me can point to it and it is the Bianjia Tomb. He saw the two brothers from the Bian family digging in the ground in the morning. When the sun rose, they stuck their hoes up in the mud and lay down under the tree to rest. The wizard was shocked when they saw it! With the hoe pointed upward, this is the emperor's guard of honor! Although he is a farmer today, he is still the emperor! The shaman immediately told the boatman to dock, abandoned the boat and landed, and quickly returned to Beijing to report.
Soon a group of Qing soldiers arrived and tightly surrounded Bianjiafen. The wizard ordered the soldiers to dig up Bian Dashou's grave and pry open the coffin. Sure enough, it was an empty coffin!
A large hole appeared on one side of the coffin, leading to the River of Return. The wizard ordered the soldiers to dig out the cave. When they arrived at the water's edge, they found Bian Dashou's body. The upper body had turned into a dragon body, but the lower body was due to Wearing trousers, the popularity has not yet turned out, and he is already dead. This returning river flows downstream into the Jiyuan River and through the Jiyuan River into the Bohai Sea. If the transformation into a dragon is successful, it will happen to enter the sea and ascend. The two brothers of the Bian family couldn't bear to bury the old man alone, but broke the old man's law. The shaman immediately ordered the soldiers to put Bianshou's body back into the coffin, quietly backfill it, and restore it to its original state. He quietly withdrew his troops again, and strictly ordered the soldiers that no one should say a word, and anyone who dared to speak nonsense would be killed!
To know about something like breaking the dragon vein, the fewer people know about it, the better.
After Bian Dashou failed to transform into a dragon, the Qing court finally felt relieved and secretly traced the whereabouts of the Dragon-Slaying Sword. But in fact, the dragon-slaying sword is in Bianshou's tomb. It turned out that the Bian family was worried that the tomb would be stolen, so they opened a narrow ditch under the coffin, which was just long and wide enough to put the sword. In this way, the tomb is equivalent to a double-layered tomb. The Qing soldiers only dug up the upper layer, but they did not know that there was something in the lower layer. Only a few people in the Bian family knew this secret, and it was passed down from generation to generation until the fall of the Qing Dynasty more than 200 years later.
As time went by, by 1934, the Qing Dynasty had long since perished. After so many years, the Bian family had passed down the story orally from generation to generation to their eldest son and grandson. Even he himself doubted the authenticity of this matter and ignored it. Once, Bian's family revealed this secret after drinking. As a result, a group of robbers were attracted to dig up Bian's grave overnight and took away the Dragon-Slaying Sword...
Mr. Chen took a sip of tea and continued: "At that time, the Bian family sent people from Peiping back to Yahongqiao to bury the exhumed bones. They published a list of stolen funerary objects in the newspaper, including a handful worth 100,000 yuan. The sword of the ocean, those who know what it is, understand that it is the dragon-slaying sword! The case could not be solved locally, so it was reported step by step. At that time, I was a contract detective at the Tianjin Zhili Higher Police Department, and was a famous detective at the time. The case fell into On my head. After receiving the order, I first went to the scene to investigate, but there was no clue. There were so many bandits at that time, and the surrounding villagers had closed their doors. Only from the mouth of the tomb guard, I learned that the commander had a male duck voice. , the others have no value. My boss called me three times a day to urge me to solve the case. I knew very well that I was urging the case to be solved not because I wanted to vent my anger on the Bian family. In fact, the big shots were staring at the dragon-slaying sword! No matter what the boss’s purpose was, this I have to solve the case! Otherwise, my reputation as a detective will be ruined. But with just this little clue, where can I find it? He is also sick and seeking medical attention. At this time, I thought of one of my junior brothers. "
"I was an apprentice under Mr. Yin Yang when I was young. Later, my family thought that there was no future in that profession, so they called me back to study. When I left, my master and a younger brother were the only ones left in the sect. Master I once said that our sect has a treasure, which was passed down by the ancestor. This item can communicate with gods and can only be taken out when the sect is facing the disaster of annihilation. Later, the master passed away, and now there is only one junior left in the sect. In Shandong. With the mentality of giving it a try, I went down to Shandong to find my junior brother. When I found my junior brother, he was already terminally ill." The old man recalled with narrowed eyes.
"My junior brother is not very promising. After his master passed away, he lost control even more. He eats, drinks, whores, and gambles. He does everything. He suffers from the disease and is alone with no close relatives. He was originally chosen by my master back then. When he saw me, he couldn't even get out of bed. When asked about his master's relics, he pointed under the bed. I dug out a wooden box from under the bed and opened the wooden box. Inside was a sword. To be precise, it was A dagger. It was written on the inside of the lid of the wooden box, "Do not pull out this sword unless your sect is in danger of being exterminated!" I picked up the sword and pulled it out hard, and there was a puff of white smoke! It was not a divine light, but talcum powder. It turned out that When this sword was first sealed, it was considered that it would be difficult to pull out due to its age, so it was actually sprinkled with talcum powder beforehand! Only then did I realize that it was a broken sword. No wonder I used too much force when I pulled it out! Judging from the fracture, it was originally The sword is broken because the broken edge is covered with rust.”
Having said this, the old man opened his eyes, and a trace of light came out from the old man's eyes. He only heard the old man continue to say: "When our brothers and sisters were wondering what happened to the sword, it suddenly became dark. This darkness is not at night. That blackness was as if there were clouds covering the sky and the sun. Then there was a five-color divine light in the sky. Of course, scientifically speaking, it was seven colors! It hit the yard like a rainbow and instantly converged on the ground. Where the light converged, A person appeared! We are also members of the sect and know that there are gods in this world. Such a person is naturally not a mortal, he should be a god descending to earth! At that time, the junior brother’s house no longer had window paper, just some square Through the grid, one could clearly see that the man was wearing a long gown, a top hat, a pair of gold-winged glasses on his nose, and a civilized stick in his hand. He was actually dressed the same as I usually do when handling cases."
The old man's narrative is a little messy, so I've made a series of arrangements below...
