Chapter 782: Qin Shi Huang, Thirty-six Years
"Big discovery, what big discovery can you have?" Hearing the fat man's shout, Zhang Meng thought that this guy was interested in seeing wealth again, and smiled angrily: "Did you find the night pot again?" Rest assured, no one will rob you. β
Lai Zi glanced at the fat man with disdain, and Ye Jiu didn't even take care of the fat man.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the fat man immediately rushed in angrily and shouted, "I said if you can come and take a look, it's a big discovery." β
"Fatty, you can just loot it, we really don't have the heart to deal with you." Zhang Meng said.
"Whew!" Hearing that Zhang Meng had damaged himself, the fat man immediately spat fiercely, and then raised the thing in his hand high and shouted: "I said that you are Zhang Lacking, you really don't know what to do!" Come and see the fuck, I've got a parchment. β
"What's so strange about the parchment roll, I've seen two of them before." Zhang Meng replied.
"!" The fat man held up the parchment roll in his hand and chatted at the three people in the distance: "My parchment scroll can say Xu Fu on it!" β
"What?" Zhang Meng didn't hear clearly.
Lai Zi, who was looking around for clues, looked stunned after hearing the fat man say the word Xu Fu, and then ran out of the room quickly.
Seeing this, Ye Jiu also followed closely.
Coming to the fat man's side, Laizi grabbed the fat man's collar and asked anxiously, "What did you just say?" β
Seeing Lai Zi's abnormal expression, Zhang Meng also hurriedly came over.
"Cut!" Seeing the shocked expressions of the three of them, the fat man snorted triumphantly, and then handed the parchment roll to Laizi: "Look at it, is the word above a blessing?" β
"We don't understand, fatty, just say it." Seeing that the fat man was playing a small temper, Zhang Meng immediately gave in softly.
"Humph! I don't understand it. The fat man said cross-legged.
Lai Zi on the side stared at the parchment scroll in his hand, and after reading every handwriting as much as possible, he nodded and said in a deep voice: "The fat man is right, there is indeed Xu Fu's blessing on it." β
Although Lai Zi does not understand ancient characters, he has a wide range of historical materials, and he also knows a little strange writing. In addition, the Chinese characters are hieroglyphs, and some simple characters can still be guessed.
"Is it really Xu Fu?" Ye Jiu also turned his head sideways and asked.
"Then can there be a fake?" The fat man said, "It looks like we're going to make a big discovery." β
"The Big Discovery? What a big discovery? Wait, you said that Xu Fu was written on the parchment scroll. Zhang Meng stopped everyone and immediately asked, "Who is this Xu Fu?" I just remember that he seemed to be a feng shui master, didn't ......?"
"I said you are an Aberdeen, you really forgot all the things of your ancestors." The fat man rolled his eyes and mocked: "Xu Fu is ......"
"Alright." Laizi suddenly interrupted the fat man and said in a commanding tone: "Don't talk nonsense, you first take a good look at what is written on it!" β
Seeing that Laizi's tone was a little stiff, the fat man stopped joking, and immediately turned around and studied it carefully.
Zhang Meng saw that there was no longer any need to look for it from room to room, so he immediately asked Lai Zi about Xu Fu. For Zhang Meng, although he has made up a lot of information since he was a child, the huge ancient Chinese history is still his blind spot, and every time he involves some historical issues, he will be despised by the fat man.
"Laizi, tell me, who is this Xu Fu?" Zhang Meng simply squatted down and asked.
Seeing that Zhang Meng was quite curious, Lai Zi also patiently explained to Zhang Meng: "To be exact, this Xu Fu should be a monk in the Qin Dynasty. β
"Fangshi?" Zhang Meng asked puzzled.
"Alas, it is the earliest title of Taoist priest." Seeing that Zhang Meng didn't understand anything, the fat man hurriedly added.
"The title of Taoist priest began in the Han Dynasty, and it was only transmitted to today when the Taiping Tao and the Heavenly Master Tao prevailed." Lai Zi said: "Before the Han Dynasty, Taoist disciples were all called Fangshi and Warlocks. The sorcerer is also the use of the Tao. The five Taoist techniques, mountain, medicine, life, physiognomy, and divination, are often used to help the world, and pay attention to the three thousand meritorious deeds. β
"Oh." Zhang Meng nodded and said, "If this is the case, then there are really a lot of Taoist priests who come here!" First Qiu Chuji, then Lao Tzu, and now there is another Xu Fu, and the span of time has suddenly been pulled from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Yuanmeng era. β
"Otherwise, this Kunlun Mountain is a Taoist holy land." The fat man interjected again.
"Then what is Xu Fu's status in the Daomen?" Zhang Meng thought for a while and asked, "Lao Tzu and Qiu Chuji are all Taoist leaders of their time!" This Xu Fu's status shouldn't be low, right? β
"This ......" Laizi shook his head in a deep groan, and said: "I really haven't heard anyone say this, and there is no exact record in the historical materials. If he hadn't appeared out of thin air in the biography of Qin Shi Huang, there might not have been any footprints of this person in history. At best, he is just a famous alchemist in Qidi. β
Seeing Lai Zi turn the topic back, Zhang Meng immediately asked: "By the way, just now, what is going on with this Xu Fu?" β
Hearing Zhang Meng's words, he almost didn't amuse the fat man, and immediately took a leisurely time, and smiled at Lai Zi: "I said Ergouzi, you really have to make up for this Aberdeen's good and bad, his level is too bad, at this level, he still dares to be the shopkeeper of an antique shop?" Sooner or later, someone will be deceived! β
"Get out." Seeing that the fat man took the opportunity to hit himself, Zhang Meng hurriedly scolded: "If you don't say it, I almost forgot, I haven't settled the account with you when you play with fire phosphorus and braised jade in Mingtang!" You also find your own smoke. β
"Gotta ...... Get...... Get. Seeing Zhang Meng rummaging through the old accounts, the fat man hurriedly waved his hand: "Count me if I didn't say it?" Grandma's, her heart is so small, it's been several years, and she still holds grudges! β
"Phew!" Taking a sip at the fat man, Zhang Meng turned his head and said to Lai Zi: "Leave him alone, Brother Lai Zi, you continue." β
Lai Zi nodded slightly and continued: "Xu Fu, whose real name is Xu City, is an evil person in Qi Dilang. He was erudite and knowledgeable in medicine, astronomy, navigation, etc., and was quite famous in the coastal area. β
"Oh."
"There are also rumors that Xu Fu is a closed disciple of Mr. Guiguzi. Learn Bigu, Qigong, and cultivate immortals. When he came out of the mountain, it was already an era when Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries and dominated the world. Raiko said.
Hearing this, the fat man pouted beside him and interjected: "It seems that this Fang Shi is not very ambitious!" β
Hearing the fat man's words, everyone turned their heads sideways and looked at the fat man in confusion.
I saw the fat man pointing to the parchment scroll and said: "Although it is not explicitly stated above, there is a resentment between the lines, saying that he is useless as a hero." β
"Wen has Li Si, Wu has the Mengshi brothers, of course there is no place for him under the command of the First Emperor." Ye Jiu said lightly: "But he is a monk, so he doesn't need to make contributions here." β
"You mean, immortality?" Zhang Meng suddenly remembered something and said.
"Yes, it's immortality." Lai Zi nodded and continued: "He saw that there was no opportunity to make a contribution, so he deliberately mentioned the meteorite that fell from the sky back then, and then took advantage of the panic of the first emperor to write that there are three immortal mountains in the sea: Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou, and there are immortals living in them. May I find the elixir of immortality for the First Emperor. β
"Meteorites from the sky?" Zhang Meng stopped Lai Zi's words and asked, "What meteorite?" β
"In the thirty-sixth year of Qin Shi Huang, a meteor fell to Dongjun. Dongjun was originally attacked by LΓΌ Buwei at the beginning of Qin Shi Huang's reign. The meteorite landing is not terrible, but the terrible thing is that the words engraved on the meteorite make the first emperor feel a stumbling block. Raiko said.
"What's written on it?" Zhang Meng hurriedly asked.
"The First Emperor died and divided!" Lai Zi said: "These seven words are not trivial, in ancient times when science and technology were not developed, they represented the will of God, indicating the death of Qin Shi Huang, and also predicting the demise of the Great Qin Empire." When such a thing happens, how dare local officials slack off? The news quickly reached the ears of Qin Shi Huang like wings. Of course, Qin Shi Huang was shocked, and immediately sent Yushi to the place where the meteorite landed, and went from house to house to check the person who carved the letter, but found nothing. β
An enraged Qin Shi Huang immediately ordered: all the inhabitants around the meteorite should be executed, and the inscribed meteorite should be burned immediately. The person died and the stone was burned, but the shadow in Qin Shi Huang's heart did not disappear until a person appeared, and that person was Xu Fu......" Lai Zi said with a sigh of relief.
"I see, Qin Shi Huang was afraid that after his death, the Great Qin Empire would fall, so he sent someone to ask for the elixir of immortality?" Zhang Meng took a deep breath.
Xu Fu took the opportunity to write a book, so Qin Shi Huang sent Xu Fu to lead thousands of boys and girls, as well as three years of food, clothing, medicine and farming tools to take a mirage into the sea to seek immortals, which cost a huge amount. However, Xu Shi led the crowd to sea for several years for the first time, but did not find the sacred mountain. In 210 BC, after Xu Fu led his people to sea again, he never returned to the Qin Dynasty......"
"He actually went to sea twice to find the elixir of immortality?" Not only was Zhang Meng surprised, but Ye Jiu on the side also frowned slightly.
"Well, twice." Raiko nodded, as if she had thought of something.
"And how many times has this ship been out to sea?" Ye Jiu asked.
"The second time." At this time, the fat man, who had already studied half of it, finally looked back at everyone with a straight face and said.
"The second time?" Hearing this, Lai Zi and Ye Jiu suddenly fell into thought.
Seeing the doubts on the faces of the three of them, Zhang Meng asked puzzledly: "Wait, uh, then he should also go to Penglai to find the elixir of immortality, why did the ship run aground here?" Could it be that this is Penglai ......?"
Hearing Zhang Meng's words, the eyes of everyone present lit up at the same time, and they seemed to have thought of something.
The fat man was even more in a daze, and turned around and carefully looked at Qin Seal on the parchment scroll, lest he leave out some important information.
Laizi on the side walked back and forth with shock, without the usual laughing and calm posture.
Even Ye Jiu held his fast snow knife tightly.
Seeing the appearance of the three of them, Zhang Meng also realized something.
In the end, Ye Jiu looked up at Zhang Meng and said word by word: "We guess that Dongpenglai may be ......"
