Chapter 3 Guangling San

Ou Zanghua took Xiang Danian to visit his teacher Wu Xun, Shanzhang Cai Rupu, Hengyang Education Commissioner Nan Zhihao, Hengyang Prefect Yi Bolin and other political and literary bigwigs. It can be said that they spent the whole day on the trip.

The moon was already bright when Ou Zanghua returned to Hengshan County. He suddenly saw a figure coming out of Liu's house and then quickly disappearing into the night.

His eyes focused, and that movement was exactly the Hengshan Light Kung Fu - Yuan Gong Somersault Cloud.

This is the light skill that the Hengshan School's great master, Elder Yuan, learned a hundred years ago from watching monkeys climbing over a mountain. With just a few somersaults, one can fly more than three meters high, and at an unusual speed, almost faster than flying straight up.

But because the posture was not cool enough, Ou Zanghua never practiced it.

After all, being fast is only a temporary thing, but being handsome is a lifelong thing.

In this world, there are only four people who can use Yuan Gong's somersault cloud, namely Xiaoxiang Yeyu Mo Da, Golden Eyed Eagle Lu Lianrong, Liu San Liu Zhengfeng, and Xiang Danian who just followed behind Ou Zanghua.

Then
"Da Nian, you've worked hard today, you should go and have a rest!" Ou Zanghua looked back at Xiang Danian and said gently.

"Ah? Okay, Senior Brother, you should also go to bed early." Xiang Danian was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had already returned home. He responded with a silly smile and walked towards his room.

Ou Zanghua thought for a while, took a long sword from the gatehouse, and chased in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

Liu Zhengfeng took advantage of the night and climbed over the eaves and walls to a dilapidated temple on the outskirts of the city. As soon as he appeared, he heard a hearty laugh:

"Hahaha, congratulations, Brother Liu, you have a great disciple."

The visitor was none other than Qu Yang, an elder of the Sun and Moon Sect. Because he loved music and was good at playing the piano, he met Liu Zhengfeng, who was also obsessed with music, and they became good friends.

Liu Zhengfeng also smiled after hearing this, and said quite complacently: "Brother Qu is right, I, Zang Hua's disciple, deserve it."

If a man of the world has a disciple who is the top scholar in the imperial examination, it would be hypocritical for him to be more humble.

The two of them got together and seemed to have endless topics to talk about. As they chatted, Qu Yang said angrily: "What basis did Ji Kang and Ji Shuye have to say that after their death, Guangling San would never be practiced again? Could it be that they regarded Guangling San as their own? I just don't believe it!"

"But that's the fact!"

Liu Zhengfeng also said with regret: "After Ji Shuye's death, there is indeed no Guangling San anymore."

"What about before Ji Kang?"

Qu Yang suddenly stood up and asked excitedly: "Before Cao Wei, who was the most likely person to get Guangling San?"

"this."

Liu Zhengfeng thought for a moment and guessed, "Cai Zhonglang?"

"Yes, it's Cai Yong!"

Qu Yang paced back and forth and said excitedly: "Besides Cai Yong, Chen Lin, Wang Can, Xu Gan, Ruan Yu, Ying Yan, and Liu Zhen are all possible."

"You left out Kong Rong, that's not very fair!" Liu Zhengfeng pointed at Qu Yang and said with a smile.

Qu Yang shook his head and said, "Kong Beihai? Humph, a man who only seeks fame and reputation!"

Then, Qu Yang continued, "The Guangling San is an ancient guqin piece that has been passed down through the ages. The Six Masters of the Jian'an Period and Cai Yong were both elegant people. It is possible that they were buried with the guqin score."

Liu Zhengfeng was stunned, then asked in surprise: "Do you want to do the job of a tomb raider?"

"If Cao Cao can do it, why can't I, Qu Yang, do it?"

Qu Yang smiled and said, "Besides, I won't touch the coffin for money. I just want the music sheet, so it doesn't count as tomb robbery!"

"This"

At this moment, a young voice came over: "Is it a good thing to disturb the rest of the ancients for one's own selfish desires?"

Liu Zhengfeng's expression changed, and Qu Yang looked over warily.

In the dim night, Ou Zanghua walked out slowly with a sword in his hand.

"Zanghua, why are you here?!" Liu Zhengfeng looked a little panicked when he saw the person coming.

Let his most proud disciple see him interacting with the demon sect members.
Looking at this pair of good friends, Ou Zanghua was also helpless. In fact, he had introduced many music masters to Liu Zhengfeng over the years, hoping to reduce Qu Yang's uniqueness in this way.

Obviously, Lao Liu was chatting happily with those musicians, but when he was distracted, this restless master hooked up with Qu Yang.

Ou Zanghua was speechless, feeling helpless that the old grass in his own garden was finally pulled out by the street urchins.

"Zang Hua? So you are the Jie Yuan Lang."

Qu Yang looked at Ou Zanghua and saw that he was in his prime and handsome. He couldn't help but sigh: "He is truly a man of great talent, with natural beauty!"

Ou Zanghua looked at Qu Yang and said calmly, "In the first year of Hongxi in the Ming Dynasty, His Royal Highness Prince Ning compiled a collection of ancient guqin music. The 64 pieces of music collected in the book were carefully selected by His Royal Highness Prince Ning from more than a thousand pieces edited by several guqin masters. The Guangling San mentioned by this senior is probably among them."

"what?!"

When these words were spoken, Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng were both shocked.

After all this time, they thought that the music score that had become obsolete had already been collected by others? !

Qu Yang opened his mouth and muttered to himself: "How is this possible? Didn't Ji Kang say..."

"What's impossible?"

Ou Zanghua smiled and said, "Guangling San is the ancient song "Nie Zheng Assassinated Han Kui". The zither player Ji Kang was famous for playing this song. Before the execution, he remained calm and asked for a zither to play this song."

"Before the execution, 3,000 students from the Imperial College petitioned the court to pardon him and asked for Ji Kang to teach at the Imperial College, but their requests were not granted."

"So that's how it is. It was those students who wrote down the music scores?" Qu Yang asked in surprise.

Ou Zanghua said calmly: "No, Ji Kang gave Shan Tao a piece of music in his letter of breaking off the friendship, and Shan Tao included the music in the Announcement."

"."

Then why did you mention 3,000 students?
Looking at Qu Yang who was almost suffering from internal injuries, Ou Zanghua laughed with satisfaction.

You, a scum, have led my master astray and actually tried to trick an honest man into digging a grave.

不揍你是因为打不过，不然还以为是我欧某人尊老爱幼么？

"Then where is the Collection of Guqin Scores?" Upon seeing this, Liu Zhengfeng quickly changed the subject.

Ou Zanghua replied: "As far as I know, there are three copies of the Guqin Pu Ji. One is kept in the Ning Wang Mansion in Nanchang, Jiangxi, one is included in the Yongle Encyclopedia, and one is archived in the Wenyuan Pavilion in the Imperial City of Beijing."

Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng looked at each other, and their excited expressions suddenly cooled down.

Prince Ning is one of the few powerful princes in the world. He made great contributions to Emperor Yongle in launching the Jingnan Campaign. He has a 3,000-man guard under his command, which should not be underestimated.

It is rumored that the "Yongle Encyclopedia" has been taken into Changling by Emperor Yongle, and that place is protected by the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Tomb Guard.

Not to mention the Wenyuan Pavilion in the imperial capital, the Jinyiwei, the East Factory, the West Factory, and the Jingjun are all small fry. The Five Army Camps, the Three Thousand Camps, the Shenji Camp, and the Ten Tuan Camps, the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty, are the big ones.

After much thought, Qu Yang felt that digging up the tombs of the Jin people seemed more realistic.

Ou Zanghua looked at Liu Zhengfeng and said calmly: "Master, if you believe in me, you can wait for me for a year. If everything goes well, I will copy down Guangling San in a year."

"What is Zanghua going to do?" Liu Zhengfeng asked with some joy upon hearing this.

"Um"

Ou Zanghua said: "I can make friends with other students before the examination. If I fail, I can ask my classmates to help copy it for me."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Liu Zhengfeng quickly stopped Ou Zanghua and said seriously, "My disciple is very talented and has the blessing of the Great Emperor Si Tian Zhao Sheng. Everything will go smoothly for sure."

Ou Zanghua was stunned, and could not help but smile and replied: "Yes, yes, yes"
