Chapter 153: Enlightenment
Lou Yuandai originally only regarded these legends as legends before the earth reached the end of the world, but when she entered the first world and saw the Shang and Zhou rivalries because of Lin Che, she found that these stories that seemed to be legends seemed to be true, but even in the Shang and Zhou era, Lou Yuandai had seen Yu Pipa and others at most, and the people who really stomped on the world and trembled were limited to hearing and hearing the word.

And now a Westerner, who still seems to be advocating science, is dancing with his eyebrows, spitting and telling Lou Yuandai the story of Taishang Laojun's descent to earth, which makes her have the illusion that she may be dreaming.
"In the period of Qin Shi Huang, although human beings have developed, but far from reaching the current point of saying that heaven will go to heaven and say that heaven will go to earth, at that time the gods and immortals thought that human beings would not have much ability, and there was no room for development, so he set up that layer of fog and returned to heaven with peace of mind, but he did not expect that the descendants would produce many talents, and someone broke his barrier in the East China Sea during the first emperor's period. β
"I studied medicine, and I don't know much about history, let alone your Chinese history, but I know a person who is very famous, and I think you Chinese know his name." β
When the Qin and Han dynasties were communicating, there were indeed many talents in Chinese history, but there were too many celebrities, and Lou Yuandai didn't know who the character Lance was talking about for a while.
"It's Xiang Yu. β
"......" Lou Yuandai has also studied history, and he is a heroic figure when he meets in history books, but he is only infinitely powerful at most, if he is a general, he is a good general, but Lou Yuandai can't think of how the encounter broke through the fog array of Taishang Laojun, and history records that Xiang Yu does not like to study, nor is he a person who likes to study formations.
"I know your evaluation of Xiang Yu in history, but those records are difficult to distinguish between true and false, not to mention that the history you see now is written by the winners, in which no one will stop them from writing what the losing side looks like, and in a few years, we can only ponder the real history with those historical records that are not true or false. β
"That's true," Lou Yuandai had an embarrassed expression, "but why are you so clear about China's real history?"
"Actually, it's so clear," Lance coughed twice, "it's just that history is wrong through some special channel." β
"I don't know how Xiang Yu discovered Penglai Mishima and how he cracked the formation, but it was indeed he who made Penglai Mishima appear in the world. β
"At that time, the first emperor had unified the six countries, and the state of Chu had long since perished, so he came to the country of Qin with the encounter that some of the Chu family members had escaped, and then to the shore of the East China Sea, and found three islands that had been hidden here for many years. β
"Penglai Sandao couldn't hide it after he appeared, and soon the first emperor knew about the appearance of three immortal islands in the East China Sea, and then there was a history of Dongdu going to find immortal medicine. β
"However, the ashes I mentioned have little to do with this period of history, because after the First Emperor crossed to the east, he found nothing, and Taishang Laojun only left an alchemy furnace there, and no matter how many people can't carry it. β
"But later, the people above the heavenly court knew that Penglai Immortal Island had been known to the world, and in order to prevent all the people in the human world from crossing the East China Sea to find immortal medicine, they separated the three islands and put them in different places. β
"We don't know about the other two, but one of them we found in a lot of historical documents that it is likely to merge with what is now Hainan, China, so I came here. β
"But so far you haven't been able to tell me where the ashes came from, and how you got them. Lou Yuandai lowered her head to look at the flashlight that was fiddled with twice by Lu Mian, she seemed to be sitting here listening to a bunch of nonsense.
"The reason why we know that one of the fairy islands and Hainan is integrated is because there is a person who once brought back a small amount of unsolvable ashes from Hainan, and even the latest high technology can't detect the ingredients in it, but that person died not long after he went back, as if he had experienced something very dangerous here, he was pale when he just went back, but his body was not bad, and his superiors saw that he was not in good spirits, so he planned to let him rest and ask later, but he didn't expect that when he saw him again, he had become a corpseγ β
"But I think I can explain the history of this furnace ash clearly, when Taishang Laojun returned to the fairy world, he took everything he could take away, but since the three islands of Penglai were discovered by the world and passed on to the world, many descendants have been looking for these three immortal islands that have been scattered in order to find the prescription for immortality, and the closest large-scale search to the first emperor was during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. β
Lou Yuandai found that as long as an individual knew more about the history of her country than herself, she felt very distressed about this.
"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is one of the more famous emperors in your China, and his contributions are not small, but in his old age, he killed almost all the relatives around him, and these are also related to the three immortal islands. β
"During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, his first queen was called Chen Ajiao, but she died early, she died of illness in her thirties, and then Wei Zifu, and then many other women became members of his harem, but among these women, except for Chen Ajiao and Mrs. Li, who had died of illness long ago, the rest of them all died tragically, and they died at the hands of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. β
"I don't know the specific period, I only know that when Wei Zifu was still the empress of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, Liu Che began to frantically look for the elixir that can immortalize, for which he searched all the temples and dojos in the world, and finally although he did not find the elixir directly, he also got a person who could refine the elixir. β
"You can't be talking about Jiang Chong, right?" Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is very famous in Chinese history, and Lou Yuandai probably knows something about this history, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still a monarch who could be regarded as a Ming monarch in the early stage, but when it came to death, he did all kinds of evil, almost killed his relatives around him, and listened to the slander of the villain Jiang Chong, and did many ridiculous things in order to refine the elixir of the body.
"It's Jiang Chong," Lance said, "That's really a talent, a real talent." β
Then I may be looking at fake history, Lou Yuandai looked at Lance as if he had discovered a talent, a little surprised, did he want to say that history is not credible?
"History is not credible," Sure enough, after seeing Lou Yuandai's somewhat surprised gaze, Lance popped out of his mouth with such a sentence: "At least he didn't deceive Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he is indeed a rare talent in terms of practicing medicine, but how do future generations evaluate this person, at least he did refine what he wanted for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che." β
"What you said he wanted was an immortal elixir?" Lou Yuandai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, saying this, it is very likely that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che is still alive by now, and he feels creepy when he thinks about it.
"Otherwise, where do you think the ashes we found came from?" said Lance, "only the ashes of the real elixir can exert this effect, and if it is the ashes of a counterfeit elixir, then it is possible that the night demons will be poisoned immediately after eating it." β
Lance was a little confused at this time when he mentioned the Night Demon to Lou Yuandai, because he had wanted to listen to too many fairy tales during this time, so he suddenly couldn't remember that he was in the world of the Night Demon.
"The death of those people is also a step of immortality, I saw in the relevant literature that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Jiang Chong had such a conversation, I don't know who wrote it down, anyway, it is very difficult to understand the classical Chinese, I don't remember the original content, only remember the content after the translation, it is roughly like this, Jiang Chong said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that if you want to live forever, you must have it, but all the concerns about the world, this concern only contains the living, and it is useless for the dead, otherwise even if the elixir refining is completed, it will not be able to play a role because of this concern, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty replied that he has long been in the world without a person to care about, but Jiang Chong said that this kind of concern is not the kind of concern that ordinary people understand, hatred is also included, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty let the damned people die after thinking for a long time. β
In this way, the people killed by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were not because he "cared" about them, but because he "cared" about them.
I heard that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is very likely to like men, and it is rare in the world for an emperor to hate women so much.
Later, Emperor Wu of Han asked Jiang Chong again if he had concerns in the world, would the medicine fail, Jiang Chong replied yes, but Emperor Wu of Han said that it would be good. β
"It's really incomprehensible," Lance shook his head, "Emperor Wu of Han killed so many people, and what he pursued was immortality, but he actually said such a sentence in the end. β
"Is there anything else behind?" Lou Yuandai asked.
"No, what I'm talking about is the conversation between the two when Jiang Chong dedicated the immortal medicine to Emperor Wu of Han, and from that record, it seems that what Emperor Wu of Han wants is not immortality, he has other purposes, but he must first meet this condition to complete. β
Lou Yuandai felt that it was not a serious thing to figure out the thoughts of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in today's advanced technology, and now they should pay attention to the ashes.
"Ahem," Lou Yuandai coughed twice, "What does Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty think, we civilians can't speculate, let's study the matter of furnace ash first." β
Lance also seemed to react that he had digressed, so he brought the topic back on track: "The place that Jiang Chong chose for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to refine the immortal medicine is an island, which is not specified, but I suspect that the island is today's Hainan." I don't know what kind of ability he has, he actually found the immortal furnace that no one could transport away on Penglai Immortal Island, and he also practiced the immortal medicine, but I don't know how he practiced it, I only know that when he left, he didn't take everything away like the original Taishang Laojun, but left a lot of things, and the ashes are the same. β
"It's lifelike," Lou Yuandai said, "but how do you know all this?"
"Since someone brought back a small amount of ashes from Hainan that cannot be explained by science, our people have lined up a large number of people to come to Hainan, they are all elites, but they have suffered heavy losses, only two of the more than 100 people have returned, and they are corpses, we found those records on their corpses, not real history books, but written on their own skin with a pen, it seems that some people do not want that history to be passed on. β
"Then you dare to come. Lou Yuandai looked Lance up and down, it seemed that this person was not as he imagined, although he was tall and big, he was as timid as a mouse.
"Of course I was forced, who would want to come to such a hellish place. But it seems that soon Lance's words made Lou Yuandai retract what he had just thought, the person in front of him was indeed tall and timid.
"But I'm here for a different purpose, I'm just here to investigate, and I'm a physician who can test if the land here has that kind of ash component, but there were some accidents when I first arrived......
Lou Yuandai watched Lance keep covering his waist with his hands, and it seemed that this accident was not small.
"Did you find the ashes?" Lou Yuandai selectively ignored Lance's waist, and asked another question, she originally wanted to ask, "Did you get the ashes?" But when the words came to her mouth, she felt that asking such a question might hurt his self-esteem, so she turned around a few times and said it euphemistically.
"Of course not. There was still some justification in this tone, and Lou Yuandai buttoned her ears when she listened.
"You know, this happened when I first arrived in China, and even if it was a disaster, I fought hard, but I didn't get anything. β
"Actually, the world has become like this," Lou Yuandai spread his hands, "It's the same everywhere you go, it's a dead city anyway." β
"No," Lance seemed to get excited when he heard this, "of course it's different, how can it be? β
Lou Yuandai looked at Lance, who was almost jumping, and after staying outside for three years, it seemed that he missed his hometown very much.
"Do you know how many people your country has, and even though I can't see them every night, the sound of their footsteps alone can knock down a building, how good New York is, I can guarantee you that if you're in New York, you won't hear much even if those night demons gather and dance on the rooftops of your buildings. β
"......" Lou Yuandai was speechless, she thought that Lance was missing her hometown.
Lou Yuandai knows very well how many people there is in China, and every time she crowds the bus, this clarity will sublimate into a kind of awareness, and I believe that the survivors in China must have this kind of consciousness now.
