Origin and Story of 丰城剑气
During the transition from the fall of the Wu dynasty to the rise of the Jin dynasty, a purple aura frequently appeared between the Big Dipper (Dou) and Altair (Niu) constellations in the sky.
Lei Huan, a man from Yuzhang, told Zhang Hua, a high-ranking official, about the 'Fengcheng sword aura,' specifying its location in Fengcheng, Yuzhang Commandery.
Zhang Hua subsequently appointed Lei Huan as the magistrate of Fengcheng. Upon taking office, Lei Huan excavated two legendary swords, Longquan and Tai'a, from the Fengcheng prison.
That very night, the purple aura between the Big Dipper and Altair constellations disappeared.
