After Transmigrating, I Became a God by Plundering --- Chapter 18, Legends of the Four Ancient Tombs (5)

Ding? King Hui of Wei? So familiar. As I pondered, I bowed again to the skeleton. When I bowed my head, looking in the direction of the skeleton, I noticed a stone slab of a different color hidden beneath its hemp clothing. If one didn't look closely, it would be impossible to spot. So it was another test. If one showed disrespect to the ancestors, they wouldn't be able to discover the mechanism to open the stone platform. It was a method to test people's hearts. Upon touching the stone slab, it sank slightly, and a rumbling sound came from the stone platform behind the skeleton. I stood up and looked at the platform. At this moment, three items were placed on the previously empty platform. The first was a scroll made of beast hide, the second was a knife with a thick back but a slight curve, about the length of a forearm, and a leather sheath with white fur lining. I unrolled the beast hide scroll, and it was inscribed with a passage. "My ancestor once said: When I first began slaughtering oxen, all I saw was the ox. After three years, I no longer saw the whole of the ox. Now, I approach it with my spirit and don't look with my eyes. I have used this knife for nineteen years and have slaughtered thousands of oxen, yet my blade remains as if new. The joints of the ox are empty, and my blade is without gap. Thus, with this gapless blade, I strike at the gapped ox, with ease and effortless grace. Therefore, all my descendants have learned from it, practiced it, and perfected it. Through generations of refinement and supplementation, it was recorded as a knife technique, named the 'Cook Ding's Ox-Slicing Knife'. Another legend speaks of a knife passed down by an elder. Its material is a metal of legend – Floating Meteorite Iron. By chance, my ancestor obtained it and commissioned a master craftsman of the time to forge it. It can float on water and cut through metal."
