A

In ancient times, China had ten famous swords. Some of them really appeared in history,while some are the products of people's imagination.

Chun Jun

Chun Jun was owned by Gou Jian,the King of the Yue State in the Spring and Autumn Period. According to Lost History of Yue, Gou Jian once invited Xue Zhu to appreciate（鉴赏） some valuable swords. Of all the swords presented to him，Xue appreciated only Chun Jun. He advised the King not to exchange this sword with others even for a combination（组合） of a thousand good horses， three rich towns and two big cities， because it was a creation of Man and Heaven（苍天）.Today the sword is kept in the Hubei Provincial Museum.

Yu Chang

Yu Chang was a sword of bravery. According to Shiji,one day King Liao of the Wu State was enjoying some food served by Zhuan Zhu， a cook trying to kill the King. Before he heard an eagle（鹰） flying down to him,Yu Chang came out from the fish be was going to eat. With the sword,Zhuan Zhu wasted no time in pointing it at King Liao. Although Liao's well-trained guards tried to protect him,the sword still reached him and stabbed（刺）into his heart.

Zhan Lu

Zhan I.u was more like a pair of eyes than a sword. Black in color, the long, unmarked sword gave a sense of kindness， rather than sharpness（锋利）. Like Heaven＇s eyes，the sword watched the behavior of kings. If the king had moral integrity（骨气），the sword would be with him and his country would be rich and strong; otherwise,the sword would leave him and his country would fall apart.

Cheng Ying

It is said that Cheng Ying was a long sword without a blade（刀片）.

One may see from this that she had a wise and thoughtful head, but for all there was so much lightness in it.

So we said our farewells（再见）， and looked at each other through our tears for the last time. And the last thing she said, keeping it for the last to make me remember it better, I think, was, “In memory for me, when there is a time of danger to others, do not think of yourself; think of your mother, and do as she would do.”
