A treasure-appraisal maniac

Lu Fei was pleasantly surprised when he saw a large number of bamboo slips from the Three Kingdoms period outside Grandma Liu's house.

Under the guidance of Grandma Liu, the half basket of bamboo slips was moved into the woodshed. When he saw the remaining four baskets of bamboo slips and books, Lu Fei's heart almost flew out of his chest.

There was no time to take a closer look, so he carefully closed the door of the woodshed. Lu Fei turned around and left, following the footsteps of Xia Kai and Grandma Liu.

When he came outside, Lu Fei dialed Little Milk Dog's phone number.

"Brother, do you have any instructions?"

"Don't be poor, listen to me, and ask everyone to go to the market to buy me dry firewood and deliver it to Jiangjunmiao Village."

"Remember, it needs to be the best, driest, and well-chopped kind. It can't be longer than one foot. It must be delivered within two hours."

"Okay brother, how much do you want?"

"Let's start with three tons!"

"so much?"

"Whose house are you planning to burn down?"

"Stop talking nonsense and get it done quickly. The sooner the better."

"Bring another van over and bring over more high-density sponge, remember?"

"Don't worry, my brother, leave it to me."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Fei looked back at Grandma Liu's woodshed before reluctantly returning to Xia's house.

It's a pity that Lu Fei ate a table of sumptuous food without any taste, like chewing wax.

It's a pity that despite the harmonious atmosphere, Lu Fei was absent-minded, and all he could think about was the bamboo slips.

What Lu Fei was confused about was why there were so many bamboo slips in this place.

Jincheng is located in a basin and has a very humid climate.

The bamboo slips of the Three Kingdoms were buried underground for more than 1,800 years. How could Mao have preserved them so well?

This puzzled Lu Fei.

While Lu Fei was wondering, he received a heavy slap on the head from Lao Xia.

"Gui'er, what's wrong with the food?"

"Looking at your dark face, it looks like someone owes you money."

"If you don't want to eat, get out of here. I'll be angry at your behavior." Lao Xia said with wide eyes.

Lu Fei knew that he was rude and quickly apologized with a smile.

road.

"Lao Xia, don't get me wrong. I didn't say the food was bad. I was just thinking about something."

"It's my birthday, you're thinking nonsense, punish me with three drinks!" Lao Xia yelled.

"hey-hey!"

"It's okay to drink fines, but you have to know what I'm thinking. I promise you won't be angry."

"Tell me, what are you thinking about?"

Lu Fei put on his cigarette, glanced at Yao Meier, who was chewing slowly and being a reserved lady, and said with a smile.

"I'm thinking that Yao Mei'er and Xia Kai are both grown up."

"Unforeseen circumstances happen, and Lao Lu suddenly disappears. Maybe someday, Lao Xia, you know!"

"You bastard, you damn cursed me to die early, right?"

Lao Xia angrily slapped Lu Fei again.

Lu Fei said while dodging.

"Don't be impatient yet, listen to what I have to say."

"What I mean is that both Yao Meier and Xia Kai are of marriageable age."

"The two of them like each other very well. You might as well take the initiative and settle things for them as soon as possible."

"Isn't it better for you and your aunt to hold your grandson early than to hold piggy every day?"

"ah--"

"Lu Fei, you, you are shameless!"

After Lu Fei finished speaking, Yao Meier jumped up from her seat as if she had been electrocuted.

Covering his face with his hands, he yelled and ran out.

Xia Kai giggled on the side, Lu Fei rolled his eyes, kicked him hard, and said angrily.

"Why don't you hurry up and chase after me?"

"oh oh!"

Xia Kai chased him out, but here Lao Xia and Xia Kai's mother laughed from ear to ear.

Especially Lao Xia, his molars were exposed when he smiled.

"Hahaha"

"Knowing you turtle

After all these years, you just said something humanly today. "

"I love hearing this, I love hearing it!"

"Hahaha"

"Hey, don't just laugh!"

"You are the only one in charge of our family. You have to take the big ideas!"

"Do you think it will be successful next year?" Lu Fei said.

"It's done!"

"It'll be next year." .??.

"I'll look into a better day later, and we'll discuss it in detail."

"I've seen Yaomei'er grow up since she was a child, and she is finally the daughter-in-law of our Xia family."

"Come, let's have a drink together."

There is nothing worth studying about the marriage between Yao Meier and Xia Kai.

The two families have a close relationship and know each other very well.

With Yao Meier's character, Lu Fei doesn't have to worry about his sister being bullied by Xia Kai.

Lu Fei doesn't want a betrothal gift, and the Xia family doesn't want a dowry, so there won't be any disputes at all.

The two men drank a glass of wine, and then Yaomei'er entered the house coquettishly.

She glared at Lu Fei, sat down, lowered her head and said nothing, pretending to be a lady.

Lu Fei smiled, changed the topic and asked.

"Lao Xia, do you know how the name Jiangjun Temple came from?"

After finalizing the marriage between Xia Kai and Yao Meier, Lao Xia was in an extremely good mood and gave Lu Fei his brightest smile.

After taking a sip of wine, Lao Xia said.

"I really know this."

According to Lao Xia and Grandma Liu's description, before the Ming Dynasty, there were only six households in this village, and the village's name was Liujia.

In addition to six families, there is also a small Taoist temple, which enshrines a wooden sculpture of Jiang Wei, the great general of Shu during the Three Kingdoms period.

According to legend, Jiang Wei died at the hands of the Wei army. He was first killed, and then disembowelled and quartered by five horses.

At that time, Jiang Wei's men robbed part of Jiang Wei's body and clothes and buried them separately in various places in China.

But there are different opinions as to where they are buried.

Some say that the Pingxiang Hou Temple in the Jianmenguan Scenic Area in Guangyuan, Bashu, is one of them.

Others say that Jiang Wei's men secretly cut off his head, took it back to Jiang Wei's hometown of Tianshui, Gansu Province, and buried it in the place where Jiang Wei once stationed troops.

In addition, there are many versions. Jiang Wei's tomb exists in more than a dozen places such as Lushan County, Wenchuan County, and Jiangyou County in Bashu.

But locals circulate another version, saying that the Taoist temple in Liujia Village is the real burial place of Jiang Wei.

And the even more exaggerated legend is that the Taoist Taoist is the descendant of General Jiang Wei.

The reason why the Taoist temple was built here was to keep Jiang Wei's spirit alive.

Later, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, they demolished the Taoist temple.

Although the statues of Taoist Temple and Jiang Wei are gone, the name of Jiangjun Temple has been passed down.

Later, people felt that the name Jiangjunguan was awkward, so it was changed to the current Jiangjunmiao Village.

Hearing this, Lu Fei already had the answer in his heart.

"Grandma Liu, you are an old man here. Do you know where the Taoist temple was built back then?"

"have no idea."

"The Taoist temple has been gone for hundreds of years, and everyone who knew it has died long ago."

Although Grandma Liu didn't know the specific location, Lu Fei had a bold guess in his mind.

Lu Fei suspected that the place where Grandma Liu and her husband dug up the bamboo slips were the ruins of the Taoist temple.

And the legend here may not be a legend, but a fact.

The old Taoist in the Taoist temple is probably really the descendant of Jiang Wei.

These bamboo slips should be the relics left by Jiang Wei.

When Manchu and Qing soldiers stationed in Liujia Village, Jiang Wei's descendants fled in a hurry. Unable to take away the bulky bamboo slips, they put them in jars and buried them underground.

So until now, the time it has been buried underground is only more than 300 years, not more than 1,800 years.

And because of the coincidence of some special circumstances, the precious bamboo slips can be preserved intact.

This is the only explanation that makes sense.
