Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 140: Huqiu Sword Pond
Chapter 140 Tiger Hill Sword Pond
Huqiu Sword Pond is an important place for the Tang family.
Originally, because of the legends from the last era, it was taken very seriously, like a forbidden area. But nothing has been discovered for decades or hundreds of years, so naturally we don’t take it too seriously. Nowadays, it is still a forbidden area in name, but in fact many Tang family members go swimming and playing in the water without anyone noticing, and the guards are very lax.
Because of this, ordinary guests couldn't go to see it, and ordinary servants couldn't go there, but it was very simple for Tang Buqi to say something.
Tang Buqi has just come back. As a rule, he must go to see his parents first. He originally planned to take Zhao Changhe there after finishing his work. Seeing that Zhao Changhe was impatient, he didn't think anything of it, so he threw a sign to him: "Take my sign and no one will stop you. Go to a familiar place to take the guests there."
The servants all looked at each other in confusion. After a while, a maid hesitated and said: "I will take Mr. Zhao."
Tang Buqi didn't care much and waved his hand: "I'm going to see my parents first, and I'll treat you to a nice place tonight... uh, forget it."
I habitually wanted to invite people to a "good place", but I seemed a little worried about it, so I stopped talking and left in a depressed mood.
Looking at his back, Zhao Changhe felt that this nephew might have a slight change in mentality... If he really worked hard, that would be a good thing. The eldest nephew is not a bad person, but he is a bit dandy and naive... uh...
Although I have always been just a fan of Tang Wanzhuang, and I really don’t mean anything like that, seeing her coughing in her clothes and working there is like looking at Zhuge Cheng, and it is inevitable to feel a little respect and regret. When facing her, I couldn't even say anything serious.
Please help a little if you can... Although this secret agent role has been completed perfectly, I can hand it over next time I see you.
While walking, he was thinking about diverging his thoughts. When he followed the maid onto the "Tiger Hill" in the back mountain, Zhao Changhe suddenly felt a little inconsistent.
Why did this maid silently lead the way without speaking?
No matter how high-minded your family is and no matter how much you look down on us, you can't be so unruly. After all, I am a guest brought by your young master himself. I will not say flattery along the way, but at least make some homely remarks and introduce myself. The scenery along the way and the legend of Tiger Hill and Sword Pond are always natural, right?
Just when I was thinking about this, the maid just said something: "Young Master Zhao has a good relationship with our young master?"
This is normal. What were you doing just now? Zhao Changhe didn't think much and said casually: "It's okay."
The maid paused for a while, as if she was searching for something to talk about. After a long time, she said: "Huqiu is a famous scenic spot in Gusu. It is said that emperors were buried here in the last era. Have you been here, sir?"
"...This is your back garden now. It's a tourist attraction. Anyone who can come here, don't chat awkwardly if you don't know how to chat."
The maid lowered her head and said nothing.
Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he found a topic by himself: "Everyone can't know everything about the history of the era, and I only know some of the legends. People here really don't know much about it. What kind of emperor is the emperor's mausoleum?"
The secret in my heart is that it is the legend of King Helu of Wu in this world. I don’t know what it is here.
But I heard the maid say: "It is said that he is a sword emperor. It seems that he is not a human emperor."
"So what's buried here is fish intestine?"
"I don't know, I'm just a little maid."
"..."
"Anyway, our Tang family has been looking for it for a long time. No matter whether it is the emperor's tomb or any sword, we can't find it. In the early years, there were people who tried to understand the sword at Qianrenshi, but they couldn't understand anything. Now Qianrenshi has Someone put the quilt there to dry."
"What is the Thousand Man Stone? Killing thousands of people?"
"It is said to be the place where the Sword Emperor lectures and teaches swords."
Zhao Changhe scratched his head. He didn't know if there were thousands of people in this world... No matter how much knowledge modern people have, they really can't know everything without relying on Baidu. But according to conventional wisdom, neither the Tomb of King Wu Helu nor the Thousand Man Stone should correspond to any Sword Emperor. Of course, there is no such thing as the Night Emperor. Things in the last era are also very different from the current world, just like history that has taken a different route.
On the way, I did see a large stone platform. I don’t know if it can accommodate a thousand people, and no one was drying the quilt. However, there were several Tang family disciples setting up a table and drinking wine, pointing at the surrounding scenery and the flourishing poetry.
Zhao Changhe shook his head and ignored it, urging the maid who was looking at the young master to hurry up and leave: "What's so interesting here? I'll talk about which young master of the Tang family I want to seduce later."
The maid continued to lead the way reluctantly, pointing to the mountain stream next to her: "Actually, we are almost at Jianchi this way."
"I can go by myself if you want, right?"
The maid stopped talking again.
The Jianchi was guarded, and he was quite relaxed lazily. When he saw the two coming, he stopped him casually: "The important place of the Jianchi is not a place for you young men and women to fall in love. Why are there always these ignorant people?" ?"
The maid's face was red, Zhao Changhe pointed at his nose: "How did you know that I look like you, a servant of the Tang family, who brought the maid to the back mountain to have sex?"
The guard looked him up and down and became a little cautious: "Your Excellency, you have such a strong evil spirit. Who are you?"
The maid put her hands on her hips: "He is the bloodthirsty Shura Zhao Changhe! The young master's friend! The young master gave the sign a pass!"
Zhao Changhe glanced at her, and now he felt that my reputation was actually a bit respectable? He didn't want to say anything more, so he took out the sign and signaled it. The guard hesitated for a moment, but he didn't stop him.
Zhao Changhe went straight into the sword pond, and the little maid followed him in with a puff of smoke.
"Hey." Zhao Changhe squinted at her: "Your mission is completed, go and do whatever you have to do. Weren't you very interested in the young master over there drinking and writing poems just now?"
The maid rubbed her little feet on the edge of the pool: "It's not good to leave like this, you will say I'm uneducated."
Zhao Changhe didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: "Speaking of which, your Tang family’s etiquette is so bad. How can you make fun of a servant who suspects that he is having an affair with a maid without killing him?"
The maid said: "The Tang family is still very elegant."
Chapter 140 Tiger Hill Sword Pond
Zhao Changhe felt that the answer was wrong. Civility and this aspect are two different things. How many families with a high degree of civility are much stricter and crueler in this aspect. Forget it, I'm too lazy to ask about this trivial matter, I just came to see Jianchi.
Huqiu Sword Pond is an important place for the Tang family.
So he ignored the maid and focused on his feelings around the pond.
Originally, because of the legends from the last era, it was taken very seriously, like a forbidden area. But nothing has been discovered for decades or hundreds of years, so naturally we don’t take it too seriously. Nowadays, it is still a forbidden area in name, but in fact many Tang family members go swimming and playing in the water without anyone noticing, and the guards are very lax.
If there is evil in the pool, the Tang family's soft sword power of spring water may not be as sensitive to the evil spirit as my own, but after walking around the pool for a long time, I really feel nothing.
Because of this, ordinary guests couldn't go to see it, and ordinary servants couldn't go there, but it was very simple for Tang Buqi to say something.
Zhao Changhe thought for a while, took out his banknotes and other things that could not be soaked in water and put them aside, found a stone to hold them down, and got into the water with a splash.
Tang Buqi has just come back. As a rule, he must go to see his parents first. He originally planned to take Zhao Changhe there after finishing his work. Seeing that Zhao Changhe was impatient, he didn't think anything of it, so he threw a sign to him: "Take my sign and no one will stop you. Go to a familiar place to take the guests there."
Anyway, regardless of whether the little maid is by your side or not, the gold foil and the dragon bird cannot be separated from you at any time, and you have to bear it no matter how heavy it is.
The servants all looked at each other in confusion. After a while, a maid hesitated and said: "I will take Mr. Zhao."
Now that he can see things underwater no longer as well as he did when he was sent to Yangyang to fight underwater, the progress of Liuhe Magic has been enough to allow him to focus his eyes. Not only can he see things more clearly, more subtlely, and farther, but also Full internal force protection can also be obtained underwater. As well as holding your breath underwater, the time can also be longer.
However, when I got into the water and looked at half a stick of incense carefully, I found nothing except a narrow water channel leading to the mountain stream. I didn't feel the so-called evil spirit at all.
Tang Buqi didn't care much and waved his hand: "I'm going to see my parents first, and I'll treat you to a nice place tonight... uh, forget it."
If you don’t dig deeper, it seems like it’s really the end of the story and you can’t find anything.
I habitually wanted to invite people to a "good place", but I seemed a little worried about it, so I stopped talking and left in a depressed mood.
Zhao Changhe is not discouraged. This is normal. The Tang family has been here for several generations and has not found anything fishy. Why should he find out as soon as he comes? take it easy.
Looking at his back, Zhao Changhe felt that this nephew might have a slight change in mentality... If he really worked hard, that would be a good thing. The eldest nephew is not a bad person, but he is a bit dandy and naive... uh...
I’m afraid it’s useless to dig deeper. The Tang family has already dug it... If there is an alien space, there may be a special way to open it, just like the ritual channeling recorded by the Four Symbols Sect... Not to mention Not necessarily right here?
Although I have always been just a fan of Tang Wanzhuang, and I really don’t mean anything like that, seeing her coughing in her clothes and working there is like looking at Zhuge Cheng, and it is inevitable to feel a little respect and regret. When facing her, I couldn't even say anything serious.
Zhao Changhe was thinking as he swam upstream, and when his head was about to emerge from the water, he was suddenly startled.
Please help a little if you can... Although this secret agent role has been completed perfectly, I can hand it over next time I see you.
The pair of lotus feet above were swaying in the water, and they almost hit their little feet with their face. Looking carefully, it was the little maid sitting on the edge, rubbing her feet leisurely and humming a little tune.
While walking, he was thinking about diverging his thoughts. When he followed the maid onto the "Tiger Hill" in the back mountain, Zhao Changhe suddenly felt a little inconsistent.
Zhao Changhe walked around angrily and came out from the side: "What are you doing here?"
Why did this maid silently lead the way without speaking?
The little maid seemed to be startled by him: "You, are you so fast?"
"It's not very big here. How can it be faster if half a stick of incense is down there?" Zhao Changhe said angrily: "You know I went down and I'm still washing my feet here, so you want me to drink your foot-washing water?"
No matter how high-minded your family is and no matter how much you look down on us, you can't be so unruly. After all, I am a guest brought by your young master himself. I will not say flattery along the way, but at least make some homely remarks and introduce myself. The scenery along the way and the legend of Tiger Hill and Sword Pond are always natural, right?
"This pool is not very clean to begin with. Are you really drinking?"
Just when I was thinking about this, the maid just said something: "Young Master Zhao has a good relationship with our young master?"
"..."
This is normal. What were you doing just now? Zhao Changhe didn't think much and said casually: "It's okay."
"The weather is so hot, and the cool pool is here, who can't bear to take a dip?" The maid said confidently: "You went down to take a bath yourself, and didn't let others soak your feet. How can you be so overbearing? ”
The maid paused for a while, as if she was searching for something to talk about. After a long time, she said: "Huqiu is a famous scenic spot in Gusu. It is said that emperors were buried here in the last era. Have you been here, sir?"
"Okay, okay, it's me who is overbearing." Zhao Changhe was speechless as he dried the water vapor, picked up the banknote and stuffed it back into his arms: "Now I have to go back to Tang Buqi for dinner, you can continue to soak your feet. ."
"...This is your back garden now. It's a tourist attraction. Anyone who can come here, don't chat awkwardly if you don't know how to chat."
How dare the maid leave him here alone? She reluctantly got up to wipe her feet and followed him back to the manor.
The maid lowered her head and said nothing.
Looking at the back of Zhao Changhe who was striding forward, the maid couldn't help but chuckle, seemingly amused.
Zhao Changhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he found a topic by himself: "Everyone can't know everything about the history of the era, and I only know some of the legends. People here really don't know much about it. What kind of emperor is the emperor's mausoleum?"
Zhao Changhe's eyes behind his back completely captured this smile, and the corners of his mouth also evoked a smile.
The secret in my heart is that it is the legend of King Helu of Wu in this world. I don’t know what it is here.
Who said that there is nothing to be gained from the Tiger Hill Sword Pond?
But I heard the maid say: "It is said that he is a sword emperor. It seems that he is not a human emperor."
Isn’t this a discovery?
"So what's buried here is fish intestine?"
This tells me that you are an ordinary little maid, and you think I am stupid... do you think I am Tang Buqi?
"I don't know, I'm just a little maid."
"..."
"Anyway, our Tang family has been looking for it for a long time. No matter whether it is the emperor's tomb or any sword, we can't find it.

"I can go by myself if you want, right?"
The maid stopped talking again.
The Jianchi was guarded, and he was quite relaxed lazily. When he saw the two coming, he stopped him casually: "The important place of the Jianchi is not a place for you young men and women to fall in love. Why are there always these ignorant people?" ?"
The maid's face was red, Zhao Changhe pointed at his nose: "How did you know that I look like you, a servant of the Tang family, who brought the maid to the back mountain to have sex?"
