Chapter 235: Xu You makes a move
The blood on Xue Yulu's face suddenly faded, Qing Bing was her only reliance, but now this reliance has become a mortal threat, all the previous struggles are equivalent to losing all the games, Xue Yulu's eyes can no longer find any emotion except despair.
I looked at Xu You calmly and said, "Is this trick interesting?"
Xu You smiled faintly: "Let go of her." ”
Between the general's corpse and the light hand, Xue Yulu hid behind me, and I stood with my hands behind my back and looked at Xu You calmly in the tip of the spear swimming in the cold light: "What do you want to say, say it!"
Xu You raised his thumb: "Sure enough, it's easier to deal with smart people." To put it simply, you help me go to the Nine Heavens of Dan Island, and I will take you out of Dan Island. ”
I said in a deep voice, "You got us to Dan Island?"
Xu You nodded and said: "That's right, as early as two years ago, I went to Dan Island, and it took me two years to figure out the situation on Dan Island, but I also stopped at the second floor of Dan Island, and if you want to go to the island, you need someone to pave the way." That's why I used some means. ”
I said coldly, "Your so-called method is to involve the Divine Detective Hand, aren't you afraid that the Divine Detective Hands will trouble you?"
Xu You shook his head and smiled: "I'm afraid I won't do it, can I still be found with that little bit of skill in the hand of the gods?"
From the time we got on the ship until now, there are many places that I can't figure out, since Xu You wants to say, why don't I let him talk about it, maybe, I can still hear something valuable.
I said coldly: "You deceived people into the sea just to pave the way to the island, what are you poisoning that girl named Xiaomei for?"
"Test the medicine!" Xu You said in a deep voice: "Whether the Danshi on the island is still there or not, this is a battle between the Danshi. Naturally, I have to make sure that my elixir is foolproof. That girl still wants to take revenge after I drove her away, and I just lack a test of poison pills, so I'm cheap for her. ”
I said coldly, "There is still a poison pill in the elixir?"
"Of course!" Xu You said, "When the ancient Danshi were refining the pill, there were endless unbelievable ideas, and the things they refined were naturally varied. *Isn't it from Danshi?"
"Besides, the battle between the Danshi is with pills. The poison pill is one of the means by which we fight. ”
Xu You said lightly: "I told you these things, you don't understand, and when I officially fight the Danshi on Fa Island, you will understand." ”
I said in a deep voice, "If you want people to pave the way, why do you want the two ships to collide? Wouldn't it be better to have more people?"
"You're wrong. Xu You said: "Actually, I don't need so many people. I only need two kinds of people, the first one is bold and hard. The second is to be able to adapt to the pill. ”
Xu You said: "If you want to break through on Dan Island, you don't have enough guts, maybe people will be scared to death before they get to the place, and the dead can't try the pill." I've been scaring you ever since I got on the boat, just to see who is bolder. ”
"Of course, there is also a reason for letting you sink the ship, that is, to see whose life is hard, sometimes, the pill is just gambling on luck. The Danshi on Dan Island left so many strange pills to test the luck of the people who came. ”
I couldn't help frowning, Xu You's reason was a bit far-fetched, luck is an ethereal thing, saying that it is there, and no one will say that it is not right when it is not there.
Xu You must have other purposes.
I said in a deep voice, "Then what about the future? You were the one who sent out the ghost ship to kill people, right? And then you created dreams for me, made me leave the woods, and poisoned Si Ruo and them, and the people who forced me close to the corpse field?
Xu You said: "In addition to the people who pave the way, I also need a few special people. I've already picked out the other three. There is only one last person with a very high level of understanding, and I have never been able to find it. ”
"Originally, I thought that the person named Ruan Dalong was more suitable. Later, I found out that the most suitable person was you. I sent you to the corpse field just to test how good your understanding is. ”
I said in a deep voice, "With your illusion?"
"No, no, no......" Xu You waved his hand again and again: "The resentment here is real, and the corpse gas is also real." Whoever walks in without taking the pill will be affected by resentment and unable to extricate themselves. ”
"When you touch the edge of the word 'holy' in the shortest possible time, in addition to being stimulated by your potential between life and death, it is also related to your understanding and heart. ”
Xu You suddenly turned around and pointed at me as he spoke: "So, you are the person I am looking for." ”
I squinted at Xu You and said, "So, I have no choice?"
"Of course!" Xu You said in a deep voice, "Either you accompany me to break through the level, or you all stay on Dan Island." Of course, you can also refuse. You may be able to survive with the help of the Faceless Woman, but you are not a Danshi, and you can't do that kind of thing, and if you are stuck on a desert island, if you don't have some kind of mental support, you will have to go crazy sooner or later. ”
I was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise you." ”
"Clever!" Xu You raised his thumb: "When I get the things left by the ancestors, I will not only send you out of Dan Island, but also give you an elixir to help you be reborn." ”
I smiled coldly and didn't answer the other party's words, Xu You probably knew that I wouldn't believe his so-called elixir, so naturally I wouldn't speak again.
It wasn't until the two of us walked back out of the corpse field that I spoke, "Xu Fu really came to this island?"
"I've been here!" Xu You looked up at Dandao and said, "This is the legendary Penglai." ”
"In the pre-Qin period, no one could explain what was going on with the mirage on the sea, so they regarded the mirage as a mythical fairyland, which is the origin of the Three Immortal Mountains on the sea. ”
"Later, I don't know which Elder Constante not only saw through the mystery of the mirage, but also sat on the seaside for ten years to observe the changes in the mirage. Finally, he discovers an island that has never existed before, and that is now Dan Island. ”
Xu You turned to look at me and said, "Does this legend sound absurd? On the outskirts of this Dan Island, there is not only a naturally occurring undercurrent, but also a phantom array that is so big that you can't imagine. ”
As for whose handiwork that phantom array came from, even the ancient Danshi who discovered Dan Island couldn't tell, so he persistently believed that this was the legendary Penglai Immortal Island. ”
"That Danshi, after landing on the Immortal Island, couldn't help but be ecstatic, the Dan Island is simply a natural alchemy holy place. There is no better place for alchemy than Dan Island. ”
"All, he collected all the well-known Danshi in the world at that time. Although this secret is not recorded in the classics, it has been passed down by word of mouth among countless Danshi, and later generations have successively found Dan Island, and the ancestor Xu Fu is one of them. ”
I said in a deep voice, "When did the Ancient Danshi you mentioned appear?"
Xu You shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific time, according to my speculation, it should be before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and after the Warring States Period, the ability of Danshi is not as good as that of the ancient Danshi." ”
Xu You said that it is too different from the Taoist Wai Dan sect recorded in the historical materials, and it is difficult for people to believe it.
Wai Dan was once an important school of Taoism, in which Taoists used various secret methods to smelt elixir and use it to eat, or directly consume certain sesame herbs, in order to ignite their own yin and turn it into yang energy. Alchemy, also known as Wai Dan Huang Bai Shu, or Jin Dan Shu, referred to as "Wai Dan", is different from the "Nei Dan" guidance technique of the Longevity Zhenren Qiu Chu Ji Quanzhen Longmen School.
According to the records, alchemy began in the middle of the Warring States period, after the Qin and Han dynasties, began to prevail, after the two Song Dynasty, Taoism advocated the cultivation of Neidan (i.e., qigong), the "Danding faction" was popular for a while and rejected the outer Danshu, until the end of the Ming Dynasty, the outer Dan fire alchemy gradually declined and gave way to "materia medica". Taoist Waidanhuang and Baizhu have been prevalent in China for nearly 2,000 years.
If, according to Xu You, the Outer Danshu began to emerge after the middle of the Warring States Period, wouldn't it become a little bit of real alchemy?
Seeing that I was silent, Xu You said with a smile: "You don't believe it, do you? Then you should always know that alchemy originated from Huang Lao Dao, right?"
Huang Lao Dao, I know some, is an ancient popular sect, respecting the Yellow Emperor, Lao Tzu as the originator. Advocating the rule of inaction, but also emphasizing the governance of the body and the country, it is said that alchemy comes from Huang Laodao.
Xu You said with a smile: "In ancient times, there was a legend of refining pills, otherwise, where would the Queen Mother of the West come from the elixir of immortality, and where would Chang'e go to the moon? Otherwise, how could Huang Laodao respect two people who have been thinking about it for more than 2,000 years as ancestors at the same time?"
I couldn't help but move my brows slightly: "Since Xu Fu found Penglai Immortal Island back then, where did the legend of Xu Fu's eastward journey to Japan come from?"
Xu You said in a deep voice: "Don't think about going out if you come to this island." From Emperor Qin to the present, only two people have rushed out of Dan Island, one is the ancestor Xu Fu, and the other is called Wang Zhan. ”
Xu You's eyes were sharp and he looked at me as he spoke, and I couldn't help but be slightly startled in my heart.
Xu You tested me twice in a row, could it be because he suspected that I had the secret of leaving Dan Island?
After the shock in my heart flashed, I looked directly at each other and said, "Didn't you break out of Dan Island yourself?"
"Me?" Xu You suddenly stopped, looked at Dan Island, and was silent for a long time before he said, "I don't count, I didn't really escape from Dan Island." ”
Before I could figure out what the other party meant, Xu You had already strode in the direction of the woods.
Xia Ji saw us floating from the top of the tree from a distance, stared at Xu You and said, "It's you?"
Xu You smiled faintly: "The faceless girl hasn't been seen for a long time. ”
Xia Ji said in a deep voice: "Aren't you already dead, why will you come back?"
"Come back and take what belongs to me, and by the way, make a break with Dan Island. ”
