Yu Tingting glanced at her, then shook her head with a wry smile, since ancient times, the saying of immortals is ethereal, who really has to meet immortals?

Although Yu Tingting is a researcher of mysterious phenomena, she still maintains a skeptical attitude towards the legendary immortals, and only thinks that some supernatural phenomena that are currently difficult to explain are exaggerated as myths by the incomprehensible ancients.

For example, the giant tortoise encountered before was just some kind of giant beast that had not been officially recorded, and its essence was not much different from that of a sea creature like a blue whale, but in the exaggeration and legend of the ancients, it became a god that could carry mountains.

After watching for a while, they continued to climb and found that the black rocks in front of them were piled up, forming a natural staircase.

The group cautiously ascended the steps, and soon a wide platform appeared in front of them, on which stood a number of dilapidated buildings, almost without an end in sight, which had collapsed so badly that they were almost unrecognizable.

Buildings appeared on top of the Black Mountain in the depths of the ocean, and everyone instinctively took a deep breath, it seems that there were really people living here, looking at the scale of the area occupied by the remains of these collapsed buildings, there were many people who once lived here.

Sun Tao waved his hand and took a dozen or so team members to take the lead, and everyone carefully scattered around, and retreated after making sure that there was no danger.

Li Zhibao, Zhou Kesheng and other members of the scientific expedition team only began to come forward to check and search for the ruins of these buildings.

Unfortunately, these buildings are so badly damaged that there are almost nothing left of piles of earth and rock, many of which are rotten wood, and you can imagine that these buildings were poorly built like makeshift resting places.

They searched all the way, hoping to find something, and soon they found some stone chips buried in rotten wood in the ruins.

The stone shards range in size and are engraved with words.

"Professor Li, there's that too." Xiao Ling also found a stone tablet engraved with words, and then handed it to Li Zhibao.

Everyone handed over the stone fragments they found to Li Zhibao.

Li Zhibao squatted down and placed these stone chips on the ground, and Sun Tao carried a lamp to illuminate on the side.

Li Zhibao said with some surprise: "These are the carved stones of the Qin Dynasty, which are made by integrating the inscriptions of the Qin State and the carved stone characters of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with the style of calligraphy in various places, and it can be said that it is the first unified font in our country, which is called the small seal, also known as Qin Wen or Qin seal." ”

Xiao Ling squatted down on the side and said, "So, these stone chips were left by the Qin people?" During the Qin Dynasty, someone came to this black mountain, Li Lao, what is written on it......"

Before Li Zhibao could speak, Yu Tingting suddenly said: "Speaking of the Qin Dynasty, there is only one person who can connect with the three immortal mountains in the East China Sea, and these stone tablets can't be the deeds of this person, right?" ”

Li Zhibao raised his head, with an approving look on his face, and said, "What Xiao said is very right, what is recorded on this stone tablet is indeed about this person's deeds." ”

Xiao Ling was reminded by Yu Tingting, and suddenly remembered someone, and said softly: "Is it Xu Fu?" ”

Li Zhibao snorted and said, "Yes, it is this famous Fang Shi Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty." ”

Li Zhibao's words attracted everyone's attention, and Hu Shengzhe and Wang Lei both came over.

The name of Fang Shi Xu Fu has been heard by everyone more or less.

Hu Shengzhe was surprised: "It is said that Qin Shi Huang in order to seek longevity, once sent Xu Fu to lead thousands of boys and girls, as well as three years of food, clothing, medicine and farming tools that have been prepared to take a mirage into the sea to seek immortals, looking for the immortals on the three immortal mountains of Penglai, Abbot and Yingzhou, and now there are really traces of Qin people's activities in this mountain, could it be that Xu Fu really led people to climb this mountain?" These things are what Xu Fu and they left behind? ”

Li Zhibao said: "It's hard to say now, what is recorded here is the process of Xu Fu going to sea to seek immortals this time, if these are really left by Xu Fu back then, then this discovery is too amazing." ”

Wang Lei lit the tobacco in his pipe, was smoking a cigarette on the side, and after hearing Li Zhibao's words, he spit out a puff of cigarette and said: "If Xu Fu really led people to break into this sea area back then, it would not be unusual to enter this mountain, looking at the scale of these building ruins, I am afraid that these thousands of people have lived here for a while, but where did these people go after that?" At least we didn't find a single skeleton here, so these people must have stayed for a while and then left. ”

Li Zhibao stood up and said, "Yes, so we have to look for it again, hoping to find other discoveries." ”

Hu Shengzhe said: "This Xu Fu is also a strange person, when Qin Shi Huang ruled the world, he wanted to seek immortality, this Fang Shi Xu Fu said in the book that there are Penglai, abbot, Yingzhou three immortal mountains in the sea, there are immortals to live, find immortals, can get the law of immortality, now it seems that he is not completely nonsense, at least there are really three black mountains here, now this is exactly the legendary Penglai Mountain, and he really found it, and climbed the mountain, but I don't know where they went after, whether they really found the immortals, and obtained the law of immortality. ”

Yu Tingting glanced at him and said, "If Xu Fu really met the immortals and obtained the method of immortality, then our First Emperor would not have died on the way to the east." ”

Hu Shengzhe shook his head with a smile and said: "That's not easy to say, for example, Xu Fu really obtained the method of immortality, but he didn't want to share it with others, so he quietly hid, and he didn't know if he swallowed it privately." ”

Wang Lei laughed and said, "Okay, old Hu, the more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes." ”

While chatting and continuing to excavate, although they successively found some utensils and objects that can prove that they belonged to the Qin Dynasty, they can only prove that a group of people from the Qin Dynasty lived here, and there are no other important discoveries.

After staying here for nearly two hours, searching almost all the ruins of the building, and making sure that there were no more important discoveries, everyone finally decided to leave and continue on their way.

Leaving the ruins of the building and going up, over a black hill, the crowd stopped.

Beneath the black hill was a stream that meandered in the distance, blocking everyone sideways, and as you got closer, you could faintly hear the crisp sound of the water.

The crowd stopped.

This mountain stream across the Black Mountain, about several meters wide, the water flow is slow, Sun Tao took a searchlight to shoot towards the water, the bottom is clear, you can see some extremely small swimming fish in it.

Guo Zhenwei squatted down and held a flashlight to shine on the fish swimming in the stream, these small fish were faintly purple, the front half of the body was cylindrical, the second half gradually became laterally flattened, and there were no pectoral and pelvic fins.
