Even Li Canghai found it incredible. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Immortality has always been nonsense, but it is too incredible that Ke Linlin and others have lived for nearly 800 years.

"Since the elixir of life has been found, why didn't Xu Fu give it to the First Emperor?" Li Canghai asked.

Yan Nanfei said: "Brother Li doesn't know, my father has never found the elixir of life. This matter needs to start from the beginning. In that year, the First Emperor unified China and compared himself to the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, and called himself 'Emperor'. The first emperor ended the Spring and Autumn Period, hundreds of years of war in the Warring States, the book is the same text, the car is on the same track, it can be said that it is a thousand years of merit, and it should be admired by all generations. It's just that the first emperor had a brutal temperament and was tyrannical. Later, in order to build the Great Wall and mausoleum, hundreds of thousands of people from the six countries were requisitioned, causing the people to live in poverty. At that time, my father saw that Qin Shi Huang was so tyrannical and that he was working hard and wasting money, so he went to say that there were immortal mountains in the East China Sea, and the immortals in the mountains could live forever. He could go on behalf of the First Emperor to find the elixir of life. ā€

Di Qingxiu frowned slightly, and said puzzledly: "The First Emperor is so tyrannical, why does Xu Fu still have to find the elixir of immortality for him?" ā€

Lin Lin took Yan Nanfei's words and said, "The reason why my father did this is that I want the First Emperor to stop building the imperial mausoleum and waste the people and money. After all, if the First Emperor had immortality, he would not need a mausoleum, and there would be no need for this imperial mausoleum. ā€

Yan Nanfei nodded, and continued: "My father is good at the art of Fang Shi, and he has won the trust of the First Emperor, but the First Emperor is also obsessed with immortality, so I agreed with my father to go to sea to find the elixir of immortality. At that time, the people of the six countries suffered deeply, and there were white bones everywhere, and many villages and towns did not even see a living person. In order to save the people, my father made a message to the First Emperor, saying that the immortals had lived in overseas fairy islands for a long time, and if they wanted to get the medicine from the gods, they would have to go to the sacrifice with boys and girls. ā€

"I know that the First Emperor agreed to Xu Fuzhi's request, so he sent thousands of boys and girls to Xu Fu to go into the sea to find medicine. However, he led the crowd to the sea and did not find Xianshan. Later, Qin Shi Huang went east to Langya, Xu Fu went to meet, the first emperor asked about the search for immortals, Xu Fu said that after going to sea, he encountered a dragon to haunt him, and all the people who went to find immortals died in the sea. He asked for more manpower, and found some boys and girls to continue to go into the sea to find medicine. It just so happened that at that time, the First Emperor had a dream that he was fighting with the dragon, so that he agreed to Xu Fuzhi's request, and also prepared him for several years of food, clothing and shoes, and farming tools, and allowed him to enter the sea again to seek immortals. Di Qing said with a wink.

Wanyu said: "What Sister Qing'er said should be a record of later generations, right?" There are some discrepancies between this account and the real situation. In fact, my father brought the first batch of boys and girls to the 'Plains Guangze', which is now Dongying. But my father wanted to save more people, so he returned to the Central Plains again, saying that he had met a dragon at sea and wanted to find some more boys and girls to go to the East China Sea to find immortals. The First Emperor did agree to his father's request, and he ordered to find 400 pairs of boys and girls from the Six Kingdoms again, so that his father could go to the sea again to seek immortals. However, this time into the sea, the first emperor had another purpose. ā€

"Oh? What is the purpose? Di Qing asked impatiently.

Yan Nanfei took over and said: "The First Emperor heard that his father had encountered a dragon at sea, so he wanted to catch the dragon and bring it back as a divine beast guarding the imperial tomb. ā€

"Huh? This is just Xu Fu casually saying, is the First Emperor still serious? Di Qing asked in surprise.

Yan Nanfei nodded heavily and said, "You said that the First Emperor had a dream in which he fought with Jiaolong. And at this time, my father also said that he had met Jiaolong, which made the First Emperor convinced. ā€

After a pause, Yan Nanfei continued: "In order to catch Jiaolong, the First Emperor sent the most elite team to go to sea with my father. My father had saved nearly a thousand boys and girls before, and if he took this team to the 'Plains and Guangze', the consequences would be unimaginable. So, my father took us on a voyage in the sea for more than half a month, trying to deliberately delay the time. However, I didn't expect to meet Jiaolong near Penglai Island! ā€

"You met Jiaolong?" Di Qing asked in surprise.

Yan Nanfei nodded solemnly and said, "That Jiaolong has a few heads, and it looks very weird. When the elite team encountered the Jiaolong, they fired their bows and crossbows, and the Jiaolong was defeated by the benefits of Qin's crossbow, so they fled. For the next month, the team worked hard to capture the dragon. But the dragon went into hiding in the cave and never came out again. At that time, the first emperor gave them a time limit of three months, and seeing that the deadline was approaching, the general in charge of catching Jiao came up with a way, they made a trap at the entrance of the cave, and then let the boys and girls as bait to lure the dragon out of the hole. Although my father strongly objected, he could not stop them. They took a dozen boys and girls, tied them together with ropes, and drove them into the dragon's cave. ā€

Hearing this, Di Qing couldn't help but sigh.

"This general is so fierce, for the sake of a dragon, he doesn't care about the life and death of others?" Di Qing scolded hatefully.

Li Canghai frowned, he looked at a few people, and said in a deep voice: "If I guess correctly, the boys and girls who are used as bait are you, right?" ā€

Yan Nanfei and the others turned pale, as if they recalled something extremely terrifying.

After a long while, Yan Nanfei continued: "Yes, it is indeed us. After we entered the Jiaolong Cave, we already knew that there is death and no life. But unexpectedly, the cave was extremely deep and intricate. We walked inside for a long time, but we didn't see the dragon, so we found a hidden place, took out the dagger that my father had quietly stuffed for me, and cut the rope. ā€

Wanyu wiped the fine beads of sweat on the bridge of her nose and said to Yan Nanfei: "Let me talk about the next thing." At that time, although we cut the rope, there were Qin soldiers guarding outside, and we didn't dare to go out. But staying where he was, he was worried that he would encounter a dragon, so he decided to continue along the intricate road. I don't know how long I walked, but I came to an open cave. The cave is full of vegetation, and there is a pool of hot springs in it, and the most amazing thing is that there is also a fruit tree growing in the hot spring, and the fruit tree bears unknown fruit. At that time, we were so hungry that we rushed up to pluck the fruit from the tree and ate it. ā€

"And after that? What happened after that? Di Qing asked impatiently.

"After that...... We were all unconscious. I don't know how long it took for us to wake up. Afraid of the Qin soldiers, we hid in the cave for a few more days before quietly leaving the cave. Unexpectedly, there was no one on the entire island. Wanyu said.
