Idioms and allusions

When Wu Kingdom was still in its infancy, there was always purple Qi between Dou Xing and Niu Xing. People who believed in Taoism believed that it was a symbol of the strength of Wu Kingdom, which could not be conquered. Only Zhang Hua didn't think so. After the state of Wu was pacified, Ziqi became more obvious. When Zhang Hua heard that Lei Huan, a native of Yuzhang, was proficient in divination, he invited Lei Huan to live with him, avoided other people and said to him, "let's go to find out the celestial phenomena together, so that we can know the good and bad things in the future." They went upstairs to look up at the sky. Lei Huan said, "I've been observing for a long time. There is a very unusual atmosphere between Dou Xing and Niu Xing." Zhang Hua said, "what auspicious sign is this?" Lei Huan said: "it is the essence of the sword, which runs through the sky." "You're right," Zhang said. When I was young, one of my friends said that when I was over 60 years old, I would be the third Duke of Deng, and I would be wearing a sword. That will probably come true So he asked, "in which county is the sword?" Lei Huan said: "in Fengcheng of Yuzhang." Zhang Hua said, "I want to aggrieve you to be an official in Fengcheng. Can we secretly look for this sword together?" Lei Huan agreed. Zhang Hua was overjoyed and immediately appointed Lei Huan magistrate of Fengcheng county. When Lei Huan arrived in Fengcheng, he dug the foundation of the prison house. After more than 40 years of digging, he found a stone box with unusual luster. There were two swords in the box, one named "Longquan" and the other "tai'a". That night, the purple between the two stars disappeared. Lei Huan wiped the two swords with the soil under the North Rock of the Xishan Mountain in Nanchang, and the light was gorgeous. Put water in a big basin and put the sword on it. It looks dazzling. Lei Huan sent Ren one of the swords and beiyantu to Zhang Hua, leaving a sword for him to wear. Someone said to Lei Huan, "if you get two but only give one, can you hide it from Mr. Zhang?" Lei Huan said: "our Dynasty is going to be in chaos, and Duke Zhang will be killed in the chaos. The sword should be hung on the tree of Xu Jun's tomb. This is a supernatural thing. It will eventually turn into something else and will not be worn forever. " Zhang Hua thought that the soil of Nanchang was not as good as that of Huayin, so he wrote to Lei Huan and said, "looking at the sword, this sword is a cadre. Why didn't moye, who matched it, send it? Although the two swords are separated and born with gods, they will eventually meet. " So he gave Lei Huan a jin of Huayin earth. Lei Huan wiped his sword with Huayin clay, which made it brighter. After Zhang Hua was killed, the sword disappeared. After Lei Huan died, his son Lei Hua worked in Renzhou. When he passed yanpingjin with a sword, the sword suddenly jumped out of his waist and fell into the water. Lei Hua asked people to go into the water to look for the sword, but they couldn't find it. All he saw was two dragons, each several feet long, coiled in the water with patterns on their bodies. The sword hunter left in horror. After a while, the water was shining, the waves were big, and the sword disappeared. Lei Hua sighed: "the argument that my father turned into something else has been proved by the argument that Duke Zhang will eventually meet."
