Chapter 1872: Immortal Jade
As for the endless health teas and beverage teas, the "morning tea" and "evening tea" launched by some restaurants are nothing more than hype through tea, which is simply a kind of disrespect for tea.
The silk bamboo in the ear, the afterglow in the cup, this is a good place to drink tea.
It is called "tea" among the plants and trees.
Tea is a mood, and drinking tea is a state of mind, calling on people to get close to plants and trees and return to nature. In the busy life of modern people, it is rare to have a moment of leisure to enjoy the mood of leisure like "tea". But when you have time, sit back, relax, calm your mind, drink a good cup of tea, and listen to your own heart.
Bai Muran must have understood this, but he drank very quickly and spoke quickly, which Zhang Tianyuan guessed correctly.
"Boy, I called you today, not for anything else, but to tell you something. About the Tang family and Tianjianmen. The reason why I didn't let you call Tang Sheng that girl was because I was afraid that she would think crankily after hearing it. ”
"What's the matter?" Zhang Tianyuan didn't really care much about the Tang family's affairs, but when he thought of Tang Sheng's pitiful appearance, he still sighed in his heart, if he could, he could help, anyway, it wasn't too difficult.
Bai Muran said again: "Do you know why Tang Sheng's parents died?"
Hearing this, Zhang Tianyuan's heart couldn't calm down, the tea cup in his hand shook, and the tea spilled on the table, which couldn't be concealed, and there was no need to hide it.
"You actually know this, but why didn't you say it that night?" asked Zhang Tianyuan.
Bai Muran said with a disdainful face: "If I want to say it, I can say it, if I don't want to say it, I won't say it, but now I suddenly want to say it, can't I?"
Of course, Zhang Tianyuan knew that things were definitely not so simple. It's just that Bai Muran has always been more arrogant, and the more you ask. I'm afraid that the more he refuses to say it, so he simply doesn't ask.
Bai Muran continued: "Tang Sheng's parents. It was because of one thing that died. ”
"One thing?"
"That's right, it's a piece of jade, a piece of ancient jade that can be said to be immortal. Bai Muran's eyes were fixed on Zhang Tianyuan, wanting to see something from Zhang Tianyuan's expression.
But this time, although Zhang Tianyuan was very shocked in his heart, he didn't show it on the surface, especially because he didn't drink tea, so it was impossible for the tea to spill out.
"What ancient jade, why have I never heard of it?"
"Have you heard the story of Qin Shi Huang's search for the elixir of life?" Bai Muran asked again.
Zhang Tianyuan nodded and said: "Of course I've heard of this, the elixir is a medicine that can make people immortal in ancient Han myths and legends. Source: "Han Feizi Says Linshang": "And the guest offers the medicine of immortality." If the minister eats and the king kills the minister, it is a dead medicine, and it is a guest to bully the king. A miracle medicine that successive emperors have been pursuing. Also featured in many novels and TV series. A part of ancient Chinese culture that has been demonized, including modern people, is also tirelessly pursuing, namely anti-aging agents. ”
"In 219 B.C., Qin Shi Huang once took a boat around the Shandong Peninsula, where he lingered for three months, where he heard that there were three immortal mountains in the Bohai Bay, called Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou. On the three immortal mountains live three immortals. There is an elixir of life in hand. ”
"The man who told Qin Shi Huang this miraculous story was called Xu Fu, a local monk who had heard that he had seen these three immortal mountains with his own eyes. Qin Shi Huang was very happy when he heard this, so he sent Xu Fu to lead a thousand boys and girls into the sea in search of the elixir of life. ”
"The huge fleet led by Xu Fu set off. But he drifted on the sea for a long time and did not find the immortal mountain he was talking about, let alone the elixir of life. Qin Shi Huang was a tyrant, and Xu Fu did not complete the task. After returning home, according to Qin Shi Huang's style, he would definitely be killed, so he took these thousand boys and girls and drifted to Japan. ”
Although Xu Fu is gone, he will never return. But Qin Shi Huang did not die of the heart of seeking immortals, four years later. That is, in 215 BC, Qin Shi Huang found a Yan man named Lu Sheng, he is a monk specializing in cultivating immortals, Qin Shi Huang sent Lu Sheng into the sea to seek immortals this time is different from Xu Fu, Xu Fu is to find the elixir, and this time Lu Sheng entered the sea to find two Gu immortals, one is called 'high oath' and the other is called 'Xianmen'. ”
"According to records, the 'elixir of life' that Qin Shi Huang couldn't find was commonly known as 'Tai Sui', and its scientific name was 'Meat Ganoderma lucidum'. But in the end, Qin Shi Huang did not take the elixir, neither did he live a long life, and even the Qin Dynasty perished early. ”
"It's nonsense!" Bai Muran actually slapped the table and shouted loudly after listening to what Zhang Tianyuan said.
Zhang Tianyuan was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Bai Muran was so angry.
So he didn't speak, just waited for Bai Muran to speak, and he believed that Bai Muran would definitely have something to follow.
I saw Bai Muran pick up the teacup, drank it violently, and then continued: "The elixir of life is just a pretense at all, what Qin Shi Huang is looking for is a piece of jade, and the name at that time was 'Immortal Jade', also called 'Immortal Jade', but it's a pity that Xu Fu's old bastard didn't want to find this thing at all, but he just wanted to use Qin Shi Huang's power to plan to become an immortal himself." ”
"Lu Sheng, who was sent later, was different, he found two immortals, it is said that those two immortals really have mana, they can easily see through Lu Sheng's mind, and they can also create things out of thin air. These two immortals gave Lu Sheng a piece of ancient jade, which was the immortal jade. ”
"Lu Sheng didn't hand it over to Qin Shi Huang?"
"That's right, Lu Sheng tried to monopolize the immortal jade, but was chased and killed by Qin Shi Huang, and later died, this immortal jade can keep his youth forever, but he can't ensure that he won't be killed. Later, I don't know where the immortal jade went. ”
"But in modern times, it was rumored that they had seen the Immortal Jade, and it was in a tomb. I am afraid that the killing of Tang Wentian and his wife back then also had something to do with this, and later Tang Sheng's parents were killed, which also had something to do with this piece of jade. ”
After listening to Bai Muran's words, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't calm down in his heart for a long time.
This thing is too sensational, if it is true, I wonder what these people will think when they learn that piece of jade is in Grandpa Yu Jiaolong's heart shield?
Zhang Tianyuan felt that the pressure on him seemed to increase all of a sudden, but fortunately, he had the foresight to take the Yujiaolong family to the imperial capital, at least under his control, in this way, if someone wanted to harm them.
Or if you want to get something from them, you have to ask Zhang Tianyuan if he agrees.
Thinking of this, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but ask: "Old man Bai, you also want the immortal jade, right?"
Bai Muran shook his head and said, "I admit it, I want to see what kind of harmful thing it is, but I really don't plan to live forever." It's not that I think I understand, but mainly I know in my heart that there is never a free lunch in this world. ”
"The more you get, the more you give!"
Zhang Tianyuan looked at Bai Muran with a smile, this old man understood in his heart, although he could live forever, he had to spend his whole life in the dark, was it really worth it?
