Chapter 101: Encountering the Immortals
After Jiadong returned to Beijing, he discussed with Dong Hao about going to Xianyang.
Li Li has left the Nord company and officially went to work at Oriental Plaza. After Li Li heard it, she wanted to go together, but Jiadong was a little embarrassed and didn't agree.
As the president's secretary, Ji Ruixue goes to work very regularly. So they only have two days.
Eventually, the four of them made the trip. Gu Shangqing is going to be a father, he will definitely not be able to leave, and Jiadong will not be able to take Lili with him.
The four of them flew directly to Xianyang Airport.
Dong Hao's friend was waiting at the airport and provided a Highlander off-road vehicle for them to use in the Immortal Cave, but Jia Dong refused.
Although more than ten years have passed, Jiadong still has a psychological shadow on the Highlander.
When they saw the Paladin that Dong Hao's friend brought to the driver, they happily asked for the car.
In the afternoon, Dong Hao's friends took them to see the Terracotta Army, the Emperor's Cemetery and the burial pit.
"More than 180 burial pits were found." The narrator introduced.
"Do you know which woman Qin Shi Huang is best with?" Dong Hao asked Jiadong quietly.
"A widow named Qing, and it is said that Yingzheng treats her better than his mother." Jia Dong Road.
"Hmm. A native of Chongqing, her husband is a young entrepreneur, and she is responsible for purchasing all the mercury used to build this imperial tomb. Because the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has a water galaxy, it has not been excavated until now. Dong Hao pretended to be mysterious.
"Were there young entrepreneurs in those days?" Ji Ruixue was skeptical.
"He ran Dansha and died young. Not a young entrepreneur? Dong Hao said.
"Why do you want to dig a grave when you're fine? I also remembered the tomb of the first emperor, you don't worry about the first emperor becoming a big zongzi and entangled with you. Jia Dong said to Dong Hao.
"I've read too many tomb robbery novels." Dong Hao said disdainfully.
That night, they rushed to Xianyang, and after arranging for Dong Hao and the four of them to stay in a hotel in the city, his friend went back.
Early the next morning, the four of them drove to the fairy cave.
The road is unfamiliar, especially the road is difficult to drive, Jiadong chose the manual Paladin again.
Several people haven't touched the manual transmission for a long time, and they keep turning off the engine and climbing all the way, and they are very happy.
However, this car is solid, and it is very resistant to the ravages of various dirt roads and this group of manual transmission students, and finally arrives at the fairy cave.
The cave owner and local officials were there, accompanied by an entrepreneur from the capital who they had just picked up from the airport.
Seeing Jiadong and them hurriedly driving a dirty car that kept turning off, everyone didn't care.
The entrepreneur was very generous, and he opened his mouth to donate 100,000 yuan to the Immortal Cave, which was the cost of inviting the cave owner to the capital to see feng shui for his office.
"100,000 yuan is my donation to the Immortal Cave, and I will arrange all the food and accommodation to the capital." The company said generously.
The cave master and the officials accompanied him, and he had no time to take care of Jiadong and them.
"Dogs look down on people." Ji Ruixue was indignant.
"Don't look too high, or we will also donate to see feng shui." Dong Hao stopped her in time.
The four of them visited on their own.
The fairy cave is already under construction, and the previous cave is obscured by a large area of green bricks and green tiles. A row of quaint new caves is planned here.
"Is the new one they built a cave mansion? The caves before that were the Chinese civilization. Wan Qiaoer said.
"Would you like to live in a cave, the owner of the cave will live here all year round. When the people come to worship, they can't go into the cave. Dong Hao said.
"But those are monuments." Wan Qiaoer said.
"I just saw it, this immortal cave should not have a long history, it should be a folk of the Qing Dynasty." Dong Hao said: "There are many historic sites here in Xianyang, and there are thousands of years old. ”
They visited the previous cave and there were many clay sculptures. It is indeed not ancient, and there was no such colored clay sculpture in the Qin Dynasty.
They found mountains of gold ingots in the backyard.
Jia Dong went over and took one and looked at it for a long time: "It's quite time-consuming to stack this one." ”
A teenager stuck his head out of the side room and asked, "Are you here to pray for blessings?" ”
"yes." Jia Dong replied. "Master, what do these gold ingots do?"
"I'm not a master, I'm an apprentice of the cave master." The boy replied. "These are for Emperor Wenchang. Do you want to donate merit money? ”
Jia Dong asked, "What is Emperor Wenchang in charge of?"
"The god in charge of the fame and fame of the scholars." The little apprentice said.
"It's time for the college entrance exam." Dong Hao whispered to Jiadong. "The gold ingots in that yard are all merit money donated for the sake of fame and fortune for the children."
"We don't have any children yet." Jia Dong sneered, "We're here to find the cave master. ”
After a few people turned around, they found that this was not a historic site, but a former folk prayer.
The main hall is dedicated to the Queen Mother of the West and the Prince of the East.
"The Queen Mother of the West is a figure of ancient myths and legends, and she is more famous than the Jade Emperor. She is known as the Golden Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother. Since the Han Dynasty, the Queen Mother of the West has been one of the main gods that people believe in. The Eastern Princes are also known as the Eastern Prince's Father, Fusang Emperor, and Donghua Emperor. The belief of the Eastern Princes comes from the worship of the sun in ancient times. The Taoists forcibly divided the rights of this puppet couple. Jia Dong explained. It is said that the prince of the east symbolizes the qi of the first yang, and the men of the world who have attained the Tao of immortals are all in the hands of the prince of the east. ”
"How do you know?" Dong Hao was curious.
"When I read Xiuxian's novels, I felt that they were wearing a crown, so I went to the archive to check the literature." Jia Dong said.
"You also read Xiuxian novels, which one do you like the most?" Wan Qiao'er was curious.
Jiadong didn't dare to answer anymore, he didn't look at it, Lili looked at it. He just didn't believe it, and felt that others were writing nonsense, so he went to check the literature. "Even if it is a novel of cultivating immortals, it must be consistent with the content of ancient myths and stories."
Everyone listened to the explanation of Jiadong's experts all the way, and their ears were almost grinding out of calluses.
Finally, you can go outdoors and breathe.
Outside, a cornfield, green.
There was an old man in ragged clothes on the ridge. Seeing the four of them walking towards the field, he stood up. His eyes were cloudy, as if he didn't see them at all, but felt them coming.
The four of them wanted to go to see the field, but when they saw the old man stopping in front of them, they stopped.
"Uncle, we're here to see the Immortal Cave, so let's take a look around." Jia Dong explained that he was worried that the old people would think they were bad people.
"I don't see the light, I don't see the world, I see only visions." He shuddered.
"Oh, what vision did the old man see?" Jia Dong asked.
"Jiadong, don't believe the words of this charlatan." Ji Ruixue whispered to Jiadong.
"Yes, you can't believe the words of charlatans." The old man said. "This girl, who left her hometown at the age of nineteen, is destined to take a stagecoach to move every nine days."
Ji Ruixue stopped talking. She thought to herself, "As long as you go to college, you will leave your hometown at the age of nineteen." ”
"This boy is eighteen-year-old and can't enter the ghost gate." He said to Jia Dong again.
After saying that, the old man turned to leave.
Jiadong chased after him and wanted to ask something, but the old man ignored him and kept muttering to himself: "A dragon horse floats out of the Yellow River, carrying the river map and offering it to Fuxi." A turtle surfaced in the Luo River, carrying a Luo book, dedicated to Dayu. ”
Jia Dong's foot strength is not as good as his: "May I ask who you are, talk to us." ”
"I'm a god." The old man walked away on his own.
