The Immortal Lost Chapter 9 Searching for the Old Land
"Xu Fu has found the elixir?" I have some doubts.
Liang Shiyou said: "Xu Fu was originally a disciple of Guiguzi. Guiguzi's life is mysterious and unpredictable, with the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, if there is really someone in this world who can find the elixir of life, I think it should also be his disciple......"
Tanzi said: "Then maybe Xu Fu himself has eaten all the elixirs?" So what else are you looking for? ”
"Is there a chance that there will be some left?" "As long as there is such a possibility, there are people who want to give it a try." ”
"That's why the crow and the toad came to us?" I say.
Master Liang said: "Instead of cultivating year after year, it is more direct to find an elixir of life. Although it is just a rumor, if it is true, isn't it a profitable business? ”
We nodded and agreed. This kind of thing is the same as buying a lottery ticket, although the odds of winning the lottery are very small, but if you win the jackpot, it is really a big profit.
"There's one thing I don't understand, how did the black fairy and the green fairy know that the breath left on this bronze furnace was Xu Fu's?" I asked Mr. Liang.
Master Liang smiled and said, "Don't forget, this is the starting place where Xu Fu went to sea back then, and he still left some objects with his breath, and those wild fairies know this kind of thing better than us." ”
"Then why haven't these bronze furnaces been discovered by these immortals before?" I asked again.
Master Liang pondered for a moment before replying: "Maybe it's a long time, and there isn't much breath on each bronze furnace, so it didn't attract the attention of others. But now that the three furnaces are together, the breath is of course a little stronger......"
Then, Master Liang looked at the sky and said, "I don't think it's too early, let's send Li Guozhong's body back, don't miss the time of tomorrow's funeral." ”
After that, Tanzi and I helped Master Liang carry Li Guozhong's body back.
On the way back, Tanzi asked Master Liang why Li Guozhong's coffin stagnated when he went out of the funeral, and whether he really didn't want to be buried in peace.
Master Liang told us that it was just a trick by Qingxian'er to pull the matter on the dead man, and then borrow the corpse to extract a confession from me and Tanzi at night. Everything they did was to create a terrifying atmosphere, to scare me and the jar so that we could hand things over as quickly as possible.
When we sent Li Guozhong's body back to Li's house, we found that Li Yuan and his cousin were still asleep, and we didn't notice that his uncle's body was missing. Master Liang said that this is also a technique performed by Ye Xian'er, otherwise no matter how much he does, he would not have been able to sleep so dead. This also reminds me that when I and the jar came out, Li Yuan's parents also slept very deeply, and they didn't react under such a loud frog sound, they should have also been hit by the wild fairy's technique.
The next day, Li Guozhong's coffin came out of the funeral on time, and it arrived at the cemetery smoothly and entered the ground, and there was no such thing as yesterday.
After the funeral, Tanzi and I found Master Liang again, explained to him the purpose of our visit, and told him that the purpose of our trip was to find further clues about Xu Fu here.
Master Liang did not shirk it, he told us that the biggest connection between this place and Xu Fu is that he once sailed here.
"Anyway, the matter of Lao Li's family has also been resolved, I haven't had anything to do in the past two days, so I'll go find it with you!" Liang Shiyou said.
"Why are you embarrassed to bother your old man?" I excused myself.
"There's nothing to worry about, to be honest, I also want to see what else this Xu Fu has left in our place!" Liang Shiyou said.
As soon as he finished speaking, I looked at the altar and was a little worried. This mentor Liang won't have to get a piece of the pie. But think about it, this is not a treasure hunt or tomb robbery, what is worth sharing? Even Master Liang knew Xu Fu's clues, and there was nothing to worry about, knowing was one thing, and making up one's mind to find it was another, and besides, it was better to look for an unknown.
In the past two days, we have followed Master Liang around Xiushui Village, and there are not too many clues. Later, Master Liang took us to the wharf where Xu Fu was said to have gone to sea. Today, however, it appears to be a beach, with nothing left, and the pier has long since disappeared with the passage of more than 2,000 years.
The beach is gentle and full of fine gravel, and there are no obstacles, except for a few boulders standing in the middle of it, which is a bit of an eyesore.
"Don't underestimate these stones," said Liang Shiyou, "Legend has it that Xu Fu's sacrifice and prayer before going to sea were carried out on these stones. ”
"Oh, that's a good look!" Now we definitely can't let go of any possibility, so as soon as we heard what Master Liang said, we immediately became interested.
When I got closer, I realized that these boulders looked very strange. There are three boulders, the most marginal one, about ten meters high, four or five meters wide, and the inward side is very flat, like a mirror. The middle piece, which is much different from it, is only more than a meter high, like a stone pier. The other piece is more than 20 meters high, looking like a ping-pong racket, and like a peacock opening the screen. However, this "ping-pong racket" is incomplete, with a few small holes in the middle. Sunlight shone through several holes in the stone screen and fell on the stone platform in the middle.
"I guess when Xu Fu sacrificed back then, it must have been on the stone in the middle." The jar glanced at it and came to a conclusion.
"Oh, why?" I asked him.
"Because those two pieces are not high!" The jar said it for granted.
"Isn't this nonsense! Who is blind and can't see, and still needs to say it? Liang Youcai glanced at the jar and said. Liang Youcai has always been obsessed with the previous things, and he is nothing to me, but he always sings against the altar, and he always has to refute or ridicule what to say. Of course, the jar is the same for him.
A few of us walked around the stone platform in the middle, but we didn't find anything. Just as we were about to leave, the altar was sharp-eyed and saw that there seemed to be a few small holes in the stone platform.
"What is this?" When the jar went up to check, he found that there were three small holes, which were equilateral triangles, but they were sealed with mud and were not easy to see.
At first glance, these three small holes are not naturally formed, but their edges are very smooth, and although there are traces of polishing, they are not obvious, so it can be guessed that they have not been dug recently.
