Chapter 27: Xuanmen, Kunlun, Take Action
"I've only heard of some, but I haven't seen any..."
The knife-selling lineage almost disappeared before the elimination of the Four Olds. Occasionally, news about them was very rare, or there were swindlers and counterfeiters. In fact, the rumors about real knife-selling people had gradually decreased before the Republic of China. Maybe knife-selling people were still among the people, but they rarely revealed their identities, and the occasional sporadic news about them was only in the countryside.
Yi Tianyi pointed at the table and said, "Ask the elders in your family about the kitchen knife. Don't be too quick to deny it. I tell you it must have happened, but you just may not know it. Ask carefully, I believe you will find out something. Understand?"
"Got it!" Feng Tianliang responded and walked aside to make a phone call.
Yi Susu was a little anxious and wanted to ask more questions, but Yi Tianyi waved his hand to interrupt his daughter, then took out his mobile phone and sent a message: "Reply, waiting online, urgent!"
After sending a few words, Yi Tianyi whispered: "Although we seem to be unlucky this time, we may have some good luck."
"About that young man with the kitchen knife?"
“Yes, luck lies with him.” Yi Tianyi rolled his eyes mysteriously and said, “He is a knife seller on sale, the oldest and most mysterious lineage among the people. They can predict life and death, and they also know feng shui and yin and yang. If you want to know what will happen after your death, you have to ask the knife seller on sale, and it will be accurate once you ask. It’s just that the knife seller on sale lineage is too difficult to find now, especially in the past 20 to 30 years. They have almost disappeared. They may be in some corner, or they may be wandering around the alleys , but they never reveal their identities in public.”
Yi Susu said, "Oh, why haven't I heard of it? You never mentioned it to me either."
"I thought I might not meet someone selling knives on credit, so I never told you." Yi Tianyi rubbed his hands, and said excitedly and joyfully: "Do you know why they can determine life and death, and control the flow of wind and water, and the yin and yang? It sounds even more weird than the Five Veins of Xuanmen, as if they can do everything."
Yi Susu shook her head, her face full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge.
"That's because it is said that the knife sellers have three long-lost books in their hands, namely Qimen Dunjia in Luoshu, Lianshan and Guizang in Yijing. These Taoist books have long been lost in the world. Legend has it that only the knife sellers know them, so they can control the flow of wind and water, and the yin and yang, and can also predict what will happen after death."
Yi Susu suddenly understood and nodded, saying, "That's really scary."
Yi Tianyi hummed and said, "It is said that Wu Zetian's two great masters, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, have a very deep relationship with the Shedao people. Even if they are not from the Shedao lineage, they are definitely very close to them. That's why they know about the events of the next five hundred years. It is said that the Tui Bei Tu was deduced from Gui Zang and Lian Shan."
There are three books of Yi in the Book of Changes, namely Lianshan, Guizang and Zhouyi. The first two have been lost to time, and only Zhouyi is extant.
Most of the Luoshu has been preserved. It is said that Qimen Dunjia comes from Luoshu, but many of the things passed down are vague. Yi Tianyi could tell that the Luoshu Nine Stars Absolute Evil that Wang Jingzhe had used before came from Qimen Dunjia, so his eyes lit up.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz"
The phone on the table suddenly vibrated. Yi Tianyi quickly picked up the phone and answered it. A steady voice came from the other end: "Tianyi?"
"Second uncle, I was introduced by a friend in the capital to help someone solve a feng shui situation. Unexpectedly, I ran into an opponent who might be a knife seller on credit. The other party started to set up a situation, and before I could figure out what was wrong, I was involved in his karma. Later, the other party used the Luoshu Nine Stars Absolute Evil and also dragged me in..." Yi Tianyi recounted the whole cause and effect, and the content was extremely detailed without missing a single detail.
After Yi Tianyi finished speaking, the other end of the phone fell silent. After more than a minute, the steady male voice spoke again: "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
Yi Tianyi said confidently: "Second Uncle, how many years have I been in the business? Although I have never had direct contact with him, judging from his techniques, he must be from the Shedao School. I am so sure of this conclusion. Let's not talk about anything else. Just the Nine Stars Absolute Evil, who else do you think can perform this game in the Five Sects of Xuanmen?"
"We are near the capital. Give me the address and we will be there later today."
"you?"
"Your master and I..."
After hanging up the phone, Yi Tianyi let out a long breath and said to Yi Susu: "It's okay, your master and second master are also nearby, they will arrive in Beijing later."
Yi Susu didn't pay attention to this, and asked instead: "Dad and the others shouldn't be here to solve the situation, right? Why do I hear that you seem to care more about that chopper youth than the Feng Shui situation?"
"Haha, take it seriously? We have to take it seriously. This was known to us by the Five Sects of Xuanmen first. If other people knew that the Shedao Sect had reappeared in the world, I'm afraid more people would flock to the capital to find him." Yi Tianyi narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you know what it means to be guilty of possessing a treasure?"
Yi Susu suddenly realized and nodded, "Are they the three lost books of Lianshan, Guizang and Qimen Dunjia?"
"It's a rare Taoist book that has been lost for so long. It has always been rumored that it is only in the hands of the knife seller. Who wouldn't want it? The Five Veins of Xuanmen Mountain, medicine, fate, physiognomy, divination, there are too many inheritances that have been broken. For thousands of years, how many people have wanted to make up for these inheritances but have been unable to find them. It is said that they can only be made up from Lianshan and Guizang. It's a pity that these two books have been lost and are too difficult to find. As for the Southern Kunlun and Northern Chuma veins, I guess they would drool if they knew this news."
South Kunlun There is a vast ocean of 800 miles on Kunlun Mountain, and there is no human habitation in the 800-mile vast ocean.
To the north, the Changbai Mountains are connected by a pool of rippling water, and the blue waves stretch for thousands of miles to the vast sky.
In the south there is Kunlun, which speaks of Feng Shui; in the north there is Chu Ma, which speaks of the underworld.
Feng Tianliang hung up the phone with a look of shock, turned around and said to the father and daughter: "It's true. Forty-two years ago, someone gave my grandfather a kitchen knife and said he would come back for it forty-two years later."
"Pa" Yi Tianyi slapped his thigh and said: "It's enough if this happens. If you don't take the knife, the relationship between him and you will not be over..."
