Chapter 59 Bronze Talisman
He Xiangshan waved his sleeves and sighed: "You go back first, let Jiang and fourth brother stay."

This is to ask Cui Weifeng in detail.

He Qianli's expression changed, but since his brother said so, he had no intention of letting him stay, so he had to straighten his clothes and retreat.

At this time, there were only three people left in the hall. He Xiangshan frowned and asked Poet Xiang He: "Fourth brother, you just said that Xuanyang colluded with the second brother and secretly murdered my He family. I understand the second brother's mind, only that Xuanyang , why did you attack me He Shi?"

Poet He glanced at He Lingjiang. She had fought against Xuanyang before, so it was better for her to tell her what to say and what not to say.

He Lingjiang received his wink and said, "Grandpa, that Xuanyang once said that he helped the second uncle to capture the He family for a bronze talisman."

"Bronze talisman?" He Xiangshan's eyebrows moved, and he suddenly remembered the one that his father passed to himself before his death.

"What copper talisman?"

Looking at his expression, He Lingjiang knew that he had guessed in his heart: "It was passed down from the patriarch of the past dynasties."

"Sure enough..." He Xiangshan's expression condensed.

Poet He was puzzled: "Brother, what is the use of that bronze talisman, and it has attracted the coveted coveted by outsiders like Xuan Yang?"

He Xiangshan shook his head, with a bit of confusion in his eyes: "To be honest, I don't know..."

"Brother doesn't even know?"

"That bronze talisman was passed on to me by my father before he left. He just said that it was a token passed down from generation to generation in our He family and should not be easily shown to others."

Poet He was stunned, no wonder he had never heard of this bronze talisman.
"It's just that my father never said what the purpose of this bronze talisman is." Speaking of this, He Xiangshan couldn't help but frown.

He Lingjiang raised his brows lightly, curious in his heart: "Can Grandpa take out that bronze talisman and show his daughter?"

She wants to see it, and He Xiangshan will not refuse: "You wait here for a while, I will fetch it."

He led He Cheng to the study, then pushed open the door and walked in alone.

He Cheng bowed and closed the door for him, then stood aside with his sword in wait.

The study room was furnished in a simple and elegant manner. Because He Xiangshan had been ill for a long time, he seldom came here, so it seemed a bit cold.

There is a lyre on the desk, several pens of different sizes hang on the pen holder on the desk, and rows of ancient books are arranged side by side on the bookshelf.

He looked around for a week. After his illness, he came to this study only two or three times. He read books in his small study every day.

He Xiancheng used to go to the small study to look for him from time to time, so it was the bronze talisman, right?
As for this big study, I am afraid that it has also been turned upside down.

On the wall behind the table, there is a picture of "Cultivation and Reading".The mountains are high and the clouds are shrouded in mist, and a few houses are vaguely exposed. A farmer is farming in the mountains with four-pin palladium. There is a house nearby, and a person is reading a book in front of the window.

He Xiangshan stretched out his index finger and placed his index finger on the window in the painting, and the wall sank slightly. With a click, the bookshelf slowly moved away, and a hidden compartment popped up behind it.

He took out the box in the dark compartment, and inside it was the bronze talisman passed down by the He family's patriarch from generation to generation.

This bronze talisman was kept in this secret compartment since he took it from his father.

He Xiangshan took out the books on the left side of the second row of the bookshelf, and pressed lightly on the wall, and the bookshelf slowly moved back to its original place.

It was almost noon at this time, and the sunlight was at its strongest. The doors in the flower hall were all closed, and only the candles on the lamp tree in the hall swayed gently.

He Lingjiang looked at the bronze talisman handed over by He Xiangshan.

The bronze talisman was about the size of an adult man's palm, in the shape of a fish, with an eight-character split at the tail of the fish, and was covered in purple gold with densely carved fish scales.

She rubbed the copper talisman on her hand, and the slightly raised fish scales were arranged vertically and felt slightly undulating.

It is indeed an ordinary fish charm.

She took the bronze talisman in front of her and looked at it carefully.

The purple-gold fish body doesn't look any different, but the color of the fish's eyes is a bit brighter than the place next to it.

He Lingjiang pressed down on the fish's eye, and He Xiangshan and Poet He also quickly looked at it, but after waiting for a few breaths, the bronze talisman did not move.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, rubbed her thumb on the fish eye, and raised her hand to remove the hosta from her hair.

The hosta is no different from ordinary hair accessories, except that the end is very sharp.

He Lingjiang held the fish talisman in the palm of his hand and the hairpin in his right hand. Facing the light of the candlestick in the hall, he looked at it intently, and then tapped the tip of the end of the hosta in the center of the fish's eye, and the hosta was slightly sunk in.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, and she exerted a force on her hand, only to hear a "pop", and the fish talisman was split in half from the middle along the back, revealing the contents inside.

Poet He's eyes lit up: "There is something!"

He Lingjiang inserted the hosta back into his hair, picked up the small note in his palm and unfolded it.

After the paper was fully unfolded, it was only the size of a palm, and there were several words written on it: "The mountains and rivers are covered, the gen is the mountain, the ridge is the spring, and the spring comes from the bottom of the mountain".

Poet He frowned: "What does this mean?"

He Lingjiang's eyes were slightly deep: "It's a hexagram, and it's a middle and lower hexagram."

Both He Xiangshan and He Poet couldn't help but take a deep breath: "Zhongxia Gua? What is the interpretation of this hexagram?"

"The upper hexagram of the Meng hexagram is the mountain, the lower hexagram is the ridge and the water. The water at the bottom of the mountain transpires to form mist, forming a natural scenery with misty mountains and rivers. This is the hexagram of the Meng hexagram."

"The hexagram image formed by the hexagram painting is combined with the meaning of the word "Meng", which is a drizzle, misty mountains and rivers, a pastoral landscape painting. This hazy scenery is caused by the opening of the heaven and the earth and the application of clouds and rain. ."

"If the Tun hexagram in the 64 hexagrams of Xuanmen indicates the budding period of things, then the hexagram Meng means the further growth of things, which means the beginning of ignorance, that is to say, it is about to get out of the state of ignorance."

Poet He doubted: "So, the meaning of this hexagram is not bad?"

He Lingjiang nodded, and then shook his head slightly: "Although this hexagram means stepping out of ignorance, but the shape of the hexagram is that there is danger at the foot of the mountain. If you continue to advance, you may be able to get out of ignorance and gain access, or you may be drowning in water. Finding that ray of vitality in the mist is not a desperate situation, but it is also difficult. Therefore, this is the middle and lower hexagrams."

Poet He took a long sigh and said: "This hexagram is in line with the current situation of my He family. The He family has attracted thieves like Xuanyang, but you and I can't even figure out the reason behind it. Confused?"

He turned his head to look at He Xiangshan: "Brother, the ancestors hid this hexagram paper in the copper talisman, do you know what it means?"

"I only regarded it as a token passed down by the family master from generation to generation. I didn't know that there was something hidden in this fish talisman. How would I know the meaning of it?" He Xiangshan sighed.

He Lingjiang turned his head sideways: "When grandfather handed it over to Grandpa, didn't he mention it?"

He Xiangshan looked wistful: "Your grandfather had a relapse of a heart attack at the time, and he left suddenly. He only had time to pass this fish talisman to me as a token of the patriarch, and the rest have not yet had time to explain."

In this way, although the hexagram paper in the copper talisman was found, the mystery is still unsolved, and the way forward is still vague...
