Chapter 149: The Ancient City in the Mountains
After a burst of excitement, Qin Fang and Kurai began to carefully look for clues in the first stone room, to see if they could make some gains.
In fact, this stone room is at best just a place for Xu Fu to relax and cool down, except for the mural that can prove that it was built by the ancient Qin people of Huaguo, as for the rotten wooden frame that is so rotten that it is slag.
Although Qin Fang found some medicinal residue there, it was not enough to prove anything.
After searching for a moment without finding the slightest, Qin Fang and Kurai left the first stone chamber gloomily and continued to set off towards the stone gate facing them.
It's a long tunnel again, it's pitch black, and the fingers can't be seen, and the strong flashlight looks a little weak.
As he walked, Qin Fang suddenly felt that there seemed to be a faint wind in front of him, and the angle of the tunnel began to tilt upward, as if to lead them to the ground.
Qin Fang couldn't help but slow down, turned his head and asked Cangjing, "Is there a sign on the map about the underground environment of Donglai Mountain, such as a karst cave or something?" ”
Kurai shook his head with a puzzled face, "Back then, Dad and Uncle Xu only stayed on the surface and didn't do much exploration of the mountain, and my dad and I have been here a few times and didn't find any big karst caves in Donglai Mountain. ”
Qin Fang nodded thoughtfully, and the two of them continued to move forward, about a kilometer away, Qin Fang suddenly noticed a faint light in front of him, "Strange, could it be that this tunnel is just a natural formation, and it doesn't lead to any place." ”
Thinking of this, Qin Fang was inevitably disappointed for a while, and when he saw the relief, he thought that he had really entered Xu Fu's tomb, but now that he saw that light, Qin Fang's hopes were also shattered, and there would never be any ancients who built the tomb on the ground and was exposed to the wind and sun all year round.
Since you have gone through nine deaths and a lifetime, you can't just go back, even if you can't find the secret of Xu Fu's tomb and can't unlock the ancient doctor's door, you have to bring something back.
Qin Fang cheered up his heart as he pulled Kurai and continued to move forward, and after walking for about a mile, the two of them finally came to the exit of the tunnel.
The sunlight outside was very dazzling, and after staying in the dark for a long time, Qin Fang suddenly felt a blur in front of him when he looked at the sunlight at first glance.
It would be good to get used to it for a few minutes, Qin Fang first poked his head out to look at the surrounding situation, but this time he looked at Qin Fang's head and never retracted it.
"What's wrong with you, Qin Fang?" Kurai pulled Qin Fang's trouser leg.
Qin Fang was still unmoved, Kurai was anxious and simply squeezed his head out of the cave, and Kurai recorded in his diary when he was old: I swear that when I poke my head out of the cave, the scene I saw at first sight was definitely the most beautiful place I saw in my life, so beautiful that it was incomparably beautiful, wonderful, I believe that no country or nation in the world can have such a wonderful idea, except for the Chinese people, of course.
It was a large, empty valley, surrounded by steep rock walls, except for a blue sky overhead.
There is a huge lake in the valley, the smoke is vast like a fairyland, and there is a ** sandbar in the lake, and there is a pavilion on it.
To the left of the lake is a castle, half on land and half in the lake, a typical modern land-lake integrated large villa structure.
The walls are not very high, and you can even see the roofs of the buildings in the city, and the most amazing thing is that when the sun shines on the stone wall, the stone wall can actually refract the sunlight, which means that there is also sunset and sunrise in the valley during the whole day.
The lower parts of the stone walls are full of mural reliefs, and the whole valley is full of flowers and plants, and the fragrance rushes to you.
Cangjing had a look of disbelief on his face, and muttered in his mouth, "Qin Fang...... What the hell is this place, and how can it be so beautiful! ”
Qin Fang didn't react at all for a while, he also looked at it, he really couldn't imagine that he could find this mysterious place along the long tunnel.
The two of them were in a daze for a long time before they came back to their senses, Qin Fang took the lead in climbing up the ground warehouse and followed out, and the two of them both wanted to go into the city to see what was going on.
Because the architectural style here can not be seen in what country or era, the low city wall is like a miniature version of the ancient city wall of Huaguo, and those reliefs and murals are all about ......
"Is this what it is?" Qin Fang looked at those reliefs and suddenly felt a burst of excitement.
The reliefs were so finely carved that from a distance it looked like an ocean, with a ship on the sea, and beyond that was the seaside, where a large crowd of people said goodbye to an old man with a white beard.
That old man was Xu Fu, and the very domineering person in the crowd wearing black clothes must be Qin Shi Huang, who was looking for the elixir for Xu Fu to cross to the east back then.
Qin Fang hurriedly pulled Kurai and quickly approached the stone wall, he wanted to see if there was any record of words on the stone wall, after all, the pictures were too abstract to see what was going on.
But when he got close to the stone wall, Qin Fang's heart was lost, these reliefs were completely a simple experience of Xu Fu crossing to the east, and he drifted to Dongxian Island after encountering a storm at sea.
Then he began to cultivate his life, and the specific location was not described, such as Donglai Mountain or anything.
Cang Jing glanced back at the quiet ancient city, "Qin Fang, why don't we go into the city and have a look!" ”
Qin Fang nodded, so the two of them slowly approached the city, hoping to make some new discoveries this time.
There used to be a road to the city gate, but because of its age, it has long been submerged in the dust of history, and now the general outline of the road is only overgrown with weeds.
Walking slowly to the city gate, the broken wooden gate was no longer visible, but it seemed to be open, as if the people here were in a hurry to leave because something urgent had happened.
"Is there something urgent going on here?" Qin Fang looked at Kurai and muttered to himself.
Kurai also looked puzzled, and the two continued to walk towards the city, and as soon as they entered the city gate, Qin Fang and Kurai were stunned by the scene in front of them.
I don't know what kind of magic has been applied to the city, but there are no weeds everywhere, many houses have open doors, and there are even stalls on the streets.
Some of the stalls still have unsold items, such as clay pots and other utensils.
And looking at the shape of those houses, even if there is no doubt about the architecture of the ancient Qin and Han dynasties in China, what terrible things happened here that caused people to leave in such a hurry.
Didn't the Dongdu Ji just say that Xu Fu ordered everyone to migrate, migration generally refers to moving, and everything in this city reminds people that this is not migration but fleeing.
There must have been some terrible time here that caused people to have to leave.
Qin Fang walked into the nearest room, which was a grocery store, the wooden furniture in the room was basically rotten, and the floor was sprinkled with broken clay pots and various copper utensils.
The large and small rooms were all turned around, and Qin Fang did not find any valuable clues.
A few more rooms were walked, and it turned out to be the same.
"Qin Fang, should we bring some things back, all of them here are antiques, they are very valuable!" Kurai suggested.
Qin Fang shook his head, "Look how quiet they are lying here, they have witnessed an unknown secret in the long river of history, why don't we continue to keep this secret?" ”
Kurai nodded ashamedly, she looked up casually and suddenly found that there seemed to be a very tall house in the distance, "Qin Fang, you look at it like a palace there!" ”
Qin Fang looked up and saw that in the center of the city there was indeed a palace-like building that was more than twice as tall as the other houses.
If you get lucky, there's sure to be something new to discover there.
Qin Fang hurriedly pulled Kurai towards the center of the city, and when he got there, he found that it was indeed the central building of the city, similar to the city government.
But it is not a palace, nor is it a government, and from the crooked plaque that has been painted, you can see the three big characters on it: "Xu Fu Palace".
Walking up the steps full of cracks, Qin Fang's heart was extremely excited, since this is Xu Fu Palace, maybe Xu Fu will be buried here, maybe the secret of the ancient medicine sect will be solved soon.
The gate of Xu Fu Hall is also wooden, and now it is all rotten, and the thick incense ash on the incense burner at the door witnesses the prosperity of the incense here.
The furnishings in the main hall are also very simple, a statue of Xu Fu, and a wall is a record of Xu Fu's life, as well as some paintings of Xu Fu's alchemy.
As for what else is special, Qin Fang has no hope and came to Xu Fu's life to take a look.
But this look really shows something, and it records in detail the detailed experience from Xu Fu's first trip to sea this time.
In fact, the first time Xu Fu went to sea was just to find a good place for human habitation, and it is also recorded in historical materials that Xu Fu came to a "plain Guangze" when he went to sea for the second time, and now I see that the so-called "plain Guangze" actually refers to Dongxian Island.
Xu Fu chose to build the city in the depths of Donglai Mountain entirely to escape the war, when the Japanese Kingdom was still in a slave society, and the major slave owners often fought for slaves.
Therefore, Xu Fu built the city in the depths of Donglai Mountain, and it is recorded in the chronicles: Fu saw that the auspicious clouds came from the east here, and the aura was swirling, so he made everyone build the city here and live.
It can be seen that modern people speculate that Xu Fu was the first emperor of the Wa Kingdom, Emperor Jimmu, and the theory is debatable.
Then it is said that Xu Fu built a city in this area, cultivated land, planted and so on.
As for the reliefs, they were all built by craftsmen brought in that year, and Xu Fu went out to the sea to bring not only boys and girls but also more than 3,000 craftsmen.
Qin Fang lowered his head and thought for a moment to continue reading, and also got a trace of information about the ancient medicine sect: in the seventeenth year of Yingzheng, Fu created a sect of ancient medicine based on his lifelong medical skills, and determined that the ancient medicine sect was passed down from generation to generation; Among them, the high medical skills are unpredictable, the power of ancient martial arts is amazing to the world, and the most peculiar is the secret art.
Finally revealing a trace of secret art, Qin Fang couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement
