Fishbone sword is named after it is placed in the belly of fish. Why put the sword in the fish's stomach?

Legend has it that the copper on Xiye River was struck by lightning, forming the essence of heaven and earth, and made into five knives, namely Zanlu, Chunjun, Shengxi, Fish Intestine and Juque. Fishbone Sword, also known as Fishbone Sword, is said to have been made by Ou, the swordsman of Yue King. The swordsman used canned goods from Violet Mountain.

After the fish intestine sword was refined, Betty Wong invited swordsman Xue Zhu to see the sword. Xue Zhu's swordsmen are psychic. He said: The fishbone sword is "disobedient, disobedient". "I killed the king, and my son killed his father." Xue Zhu said that the fish-gut sword was used to kill the king and his father because it disobeyed orders. Later, the State of Yue presented a treasure to the State of Wu, so the sword entered the State of Wu from the State of Yue. What do you think of the gift from the King of Yue to the King of Wu? It is said that Gong Ziguang, and later Wu, accidentally got three of the five swords, namely He.

In 5 15 BC, Gongzi Guanghe conspired to offer a dagger to the fish belly in the name of entertaining Wu Wei, who was in power at that time. When the chef's rotating column stabbed Wu on the spot, he was also killed by bodyguards. This incident is called "stabbing Liao Wang", "turning a pearl to stab Liao Wang" or "setting up a whole stab at five Liao Wang". It is said that the fish-gut sword is called fish-gut sword for two reasons. It is said that the fish intestine sword is named because it is small enough to be hidden in the stomach of a fish. Gongziguang and Zhuangzi chose the fishbone sword mainly because it is sharp, mainly because it can be hidden in the belly of fish, while Wu Wangliao just likes to eat grilled fish. The other one is more interesting. It is said that the fish intestine sword is named after the same pattern as the fish intestine. The so-called fish intestine does not refer to the internal organs of raw fish, but refers to the appearance of fish intestine after the wings of cooked fish are stripped, that is, the blade is serrated and flat.

There is no doubt about the answer. According to archaeological findings, a steel sword was unearthed in a tomb in Yangjiashan, Changsha, Hunan. After heat treatment, the degree of repeated forging can also be seen in the cross section of the blade. Among the ironware unearthed from Yashoudu site in the Warring States Period in Hebei Province, there are hardened steel parts.
