The Ghost of Fog
Chapters 147. A Secret
Lin Tian and Zhang Qiaofeng were wide-eyed at the old man before him. Surprised as soon as he heard the explanation that had just sounded from the gnarled mouth of the grandfather.
While Cin Kok who was seen as such, felt natural about the attitude of both guests and chose to sip green tea. Kim Chao who was also present in the room was only able to sigh because he had guessed by the reaction of Lin Tian and his nonan.
"Is that really mister?" asked Lin Tian nervously.
Cin Kok simply nodded in agreement, he was actually confused as to what he wanted to answer.
"Why is everything related?" this time Zhang Qiaofeng chimed in.
"Lin Tian..I...mistake not hear wrong, right? Try pinching my cheeks." as in a dream, Zhang Qiaofeng said as he brought his cheeks closer to Lin Tian.
Just like the girl, Lin Tian who was also like in a dream was only able to pinch the cheek hard until the girl complained. If under ordinary circumstances, this action of Lin Tian could be considered brash. But in Zhang Qiaofeng's eyes, it seemed that the girl did not mind him at all.
"Haha.you must be surprised. We do too, which is why when I heard that this junior of mine introduced you as a member of the Zhang family, I became very happy. And that's why I want to give you information about the White Lotus without hesitation. I have long heard the news of the Zhang family moving to the South and I have been waiting for this moment for a long time" Cin Kok said with a smile.
What really makes two young people surprised is not playing, it is a reality that is worth to be surprised. A very important secret, which if this meeting never happened, maybe this secret will never be revealed forever.
That secret concerned many things, the first was the secret of why throughout the history of the world, the Song empire and the Chu empire had never clashed massively. Second, the secrets of the Zhang family, the Wang family, and the Cin family. Third, the secrets between the three families are still closely related to the stolen books and the flagship science of Lin Tian, the science of Inner Peace.
It's all revealed and here's the secret.
In the story of Cin Kok, the grandfather said that a long time ago there was a warrior digdaya who was very famous for the goodness of his culture at that time. The warrior had four disciples, all of whom were men. The four disciples were the same until it was difficult to measure which was the strongest.
Once upon a time, the teacher lowered four kinds of silat very high level. One lesson for one student. Even so high and great knowledge, for the four genius disciples it still feels very difficult to master it.
For years they galvanize themselves and at some point, they manage to master perfectly. At that very moment, the teacher was nearing the end of his life and gave a little encouragement.
"My disciples, listen. I have sent you down to do good, not chaos. To protect, not kill. And as a symbol of your brotherhood that will never break up forever. Teach these sciences only to your descendants, and at some point if the people who possess these four sciences are united, then, then there is only happiness because of meeting each other with brothers. I do not want, very much not to, if my sciences are used to kill each other among yourself, to spread hatred and hostility, he said, and to be the subject of a struggle to shed innocent blood."
Thus the contents of the dish before the famous swordsman whose name is already very famous under the sky, which is said to have reached hundreds of years of age, closed his eyes for eternity.
The four disciples obediently carried out the teacher's final advice. After taking care of his teacher's corpse, the four of them then went down the mountain to wander and carve a name as a great swordsman like his teacher.
Two men went north, and two went south. Being highly respected officers of justice is also respected.
The four men came from four different families that at that time, their families had all disappeared from the surface of the earth due to endless wars. And the great warrior who became the teacher was a helper for all of them.
So after adventuring to gather experience, they re-established a broken family.
Zhang Ci, as the most astute man also very clever of his brain, he got the book of the science of Inner Peace. After going down the mountain and wandering for several years, he re-established the Zhang family which was already flat.
Song Bun An, the most agile and dexterous of his three brothers. Got a very high level of silat science, named Snow Dancing Dragon. After successfully marrying and rebuilding the fallen Song family, he continued to elevate the Song family until at some point, the Song family became the emperor's family and his son, Song Jingmi became the first emperor of the Song empire to expand into the entire Northern mainland.
Cin Cheng, who was the most obedient and quiet, was also the most obedient to his teacher and did not argue much. There is a book of swordsmanship called Bungai Teratai Putih. After descending the mountain, he went to the South and managed to rebuild the Cin family.
Because it is the nature of the man who does not want to live a luxurious life with a treasure, he chose a simple life by begging.
Strange indeed this Cin Cheng character. When one of his fellow students accidentally met and asked him why he was a beggar? Cin Cheng simply replied.
"I want to eliminate the miser in the hearts of the nobleman and the rich for having found a man who had no treasure even to eat a mouthful of rice like me. I want to cause relief and gratitude in the hearts of the poor for seeing myself poorer than them. I want to live a simple life that does not want many things, so that my life is peaceful without being filled with wastes will lose valuables." replied the person calmly and smiled patiently.
What a very unreasonable answer. Because according to the general view, beggars are lazy people. But in Cin Cheng's eyes, the beggar seemed to be someone capable of bringing blessings to many, both the poor and the rich.
Cin Cheng was also the one who had built the Lotus Flower beggar assembly and he became its first chairman.
And lastly was Wang Kiu, a man who was the strongest of his strength among his three brothers. He got an empty-handed book of magic called the Sky Eater Fire which focuses on the exertion of Yang energy.
After successfully establishing his family, the Wang family managed to carve a feat that made the Chu emperor at that time give one city as a territory.
"So, we are indeed interconnected and are still counted brothers" said Cin Kok when ending his explanation which made Lin Tian and Zhang Qiaofeng surprised that the pinch happened.
After a while, Lin Tian asked, "Then, what do you mean by the secret between the Chu empire and the Song empire that never clashed with each other. Also why did the Wang family have two books, shouldn't it be just the Mega Eater Fire?"
"To be precise, but when the Song empire was led by the first emperor, Song Bun An felt that the book was in danger due to the unstable state of the world. So he immediately sent the Snow Dancing Dragon scripture to his brother, Wang Kiu, to be kept well. He also allowed the Wang family to study the book. But just like their agreement with their teacher, the book must be passed down to their child, so Wang Kiu only sent down the two books to his own son." explained Cin Kok.
"Then for the two empires that are still peaceful until now, it was caused by one of Cin Cheng's disciples, he said, some came from the Chu family which at that time was still a small family. Cin Cheng trained him earnestly until the disciple had great abilities. But of course he didn't teach the swordsmanship of the White Lotus Flower."
"In a short story, Cin Cheng's disciple became a great swordsman and managed to kill the emperor of the South ruler. At that time, the Song empire and the Southern ruling empire were still often involved in war because the Southern emperor was a despotic and arbitrary leader. Even many of the people themselves are victims. So the rebellion of Cin Cheng's disciples was aided by many warriors and the emperor was killed along with thousands of soldiers." Cin Kok paused his explanation for sipping his tea.
"Because it was the son of Cin Cheng's disciple who managed to behead the emperor, so that the Chu family from then on was approved to be the emperor's family and the son of Cin Cheng's disciple became the first emperor of the Chu empire. As for the Song emperor who saw the change, he decided to forge a peace treaty to the Chu emperor whom he knew as a disciple of his father's fellow-siblings. Emperor Chu also knew that if Emperor Song was the son of his teacher's brother-in-law, then he confidently agreed to the treaty. From then on, the Song and Chu empires coexisted. And there is no war between the North and the South." Cin Kok ended his explanation.
Lin Tian and Zhang Qiaofeng were still dumbfounded speechless. This is a shocking reality for the two men.
Until a moment of daydreaming they realized when Cin Kok again said.
"Ah...what if to strengthen the brotherhood, it is permissible to fight one or two moves?"
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
