Who's Ou Yezi?

Ou Yezi was a Vietnamese from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the early Warring States Period. The originator of ancient sword casting in China. According to Yue Jueshu, he once cast five swords for Yue Wangyun: Zhan Lu, Juque, Xie Sheng, Yuchang and Chunjun; Three famous swords were cast for King Zhao of Chu: Long Yuan, Artest and Lu Bu. His daughter's name is "Mo Xie", and "Ganjiang" is his son-in-law. The two swords "Ganjiang, Mo Xie" were forged by his daughter and son-in-law.

First, let's look at the fishbone sword. Fishbone sword is called "the sword of the brave", and fishbone sword is also called the sword of hiding fish. According to the biography of Liao Wangchuan, King of Wu Yue in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhuan Xu grilled fish with a fishbone sword. This means that the fish intestine sword is a small dagger that can be hidden in the belly of a fish. Even if the fish intestine sword is extremely sharp, its lethality is greatly weakened because of its small size.

Juque is also a dagger, alias "the supreme in the world". It is said that its shock wave can split the Mercedes-Benz car in half and easily cut a large iron pot. It used to be Yue Yunchang's sword. Since the death of King Yue, the Juejian has disappeared, but its light can still be read in the history books.

The other three swords are all long swords, among which Chunjun's shape is exquisite and gorgeous. In an archaeological excavation in 1965, a sword covered with mud was unearthed, and it was written "Sword of Gou Jian, King of Yue, for personal use". According to historical records, this sword is probably a pure Jun sword, which is now in the Hubei Museum.

This sword is worn by the king of Wu. But Ou Yezi thought this sword was full of evil spirits, so he made a scenic evil sword, which is also a fine sword.

Zhanlujian is known as "the sword of the benevolent", and Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once said in a poem, "All courtiers are in uniform and all kings are in Zhan Lu". After the casting of Zhan Lu Jian, it was admired by all previous dynasties. It is said that after Ou Yezi was tempered into Zhan Lu Jian, in order to test its performance, he picked up the sword and cut it at the boulder, and the boulder cracked. This is what we call "swinging a boulder with one sword"

Although this is only a legend, Zhan Lu's edge can be verified by history. Jen has passed it on several times. According to legend, it was obtained by Xue in the Tang Dynasty and later spread to Yue Fei, a famous anti-gold star in the Southern Song Dynasty. In the 12th year of Shaoxing (1 142), after Yue Fei and his son were killed, Zhan's whereabouts were unknown.

Zhanlu Sword is the most famous sword cast in Ou Yezi, and it is called "the first sword in the world". This sword can make the hair die, and the iron blade is like mud, chinese odyssey. Later generations have a poem saying: "Ten years of clouds fell in Zhan Lu. There are two dragons in the bucket. Where can I ask Mr. Ou? In the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhan Lu's sword was also long. "
