177 The Realm of Eternal Life
The people of the White Republic can live for 2,000 years if they ride a thing called Chenghuang, so if they keep riding it, won't they be immortal?
"Does Mr. Ye know about Bai Lian?" Su Yuan opened his mouth and asked Ye Qianqiu, this person knew too many secrets, and Su Yuan even felt that he knew everything about the world.
"Bai Lian...... I don't know this person, but I guess he should be from the White Republic. Ye Qianqiu pondered for a moment and gave Su Yuan a different answer.
"So according to this, the Tao has always been established by the people of the White Republic?" Su Yuan became more and more surprised in his heart, if this was the case, wouldn't Bai Lian have lived for thousands of years?
It is difficult for ordinary mortals to live for hundreds of years, but the minimum lifespan of people in the White Republic is two thousand years.
Could it be that there is no management of the Three Realms there?
"That's right, the White Republic of China never appears easily, Su Xianren thinks like this, he must have met with them?" Ye Qianqiu is really smart and thoughtful.
Su Yuan didn't dare to talk too much about him now, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would take advantage of it.
Ye Qianqiu is not ordinary, and he can even be said to be terrifying.
"I can't hide anything from Mr. Ye's discernment, I did have contact with people who have always been Taoist, and they also said that they have a fake heavenly list in their hands." Su Yuan nodded, since Ye Qianqiu saw it, he didn't have to hide it.
Tell him the truth, and maybe get some surprises.
"Fake heavenly list? Could it be that they have united? Ye Qianqiu's rare voice trembled, although it was very subtle, but it could not escape Su Yuan's ears.
This was also the first time that Su Yuan felt his emotional ups and downs, not as calm as he was at the beginning.
Is there anything or someone he is afraid of?
"Mr. Ye, what are you referring to?"
"Su Xianren, do you really want to know? There are a lot of things that are not good to know too much. Ye Qianqiu hesitated, Su Yuan was not very interested.
Now listening to him say this, my heart is even more curious.
What is it that will make this Mr. Shensuan, who has always been confident and unhurried, feel afraid?
"I'm already like this anyway, I'm not afraid of bites when there are more lice, what can I do if I know what I shouldn't know?" Su Yuan completely gave up struggling.
Because many things are often not as good as they should be, if people don't relax a little, they will be angry sooner or later.
Su Yuan completely understood what life is like this time, in fact, some people have already spent all their strength in life, and compared to them, isn't it much better?
"In that case, then I'll tell you and the young man!" Ye Qianqiu sighed before he spoke: "It's no secret that you can listen to these things I want to say as myths. ”。
"There are four ancient kingdoms in this world, and they are all immortal. The Bai Republic of China I mentioned before is one of them, in fact, the Ichimoku country that you want to track down Su Xianren has something to do with this, but I am hindered by the rules, and I can't reveal too much about the Ichimoku country. ”。
The next words are Ye Qianqiu's narration.
People in the world are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the lowest people only seek three meals a day, but even this seemingly simple demand is still not met by many people, let alone seeking material happiness and spiritual wealth.
The superior people have unlimited wealth in their hands, and they do not worry about eating, drinking, or spending money.
The so-called full of warmth and lust, rich people think about how to prolong their lifespan, and this has been the case since ancient times.
The reason why all dynasties and dynasties have been keen on alchemy since the first emperor is here.
The book says: "Those who are 100 years old are the general of their lives." It means that it is normal for people to live for 100 years, although this standard is also very high, but it is still in the normal range.
However, even in today's advanced technology, the average life expectancy of people is only 72.3 years, far below the standard of 100 years old.
But there are four immortal kingdoms, and it is not known whether they are true or not.
The first is the White Republic of China, which does not need to be explained.
The second is Xuanyuan Kingdom, just listen to this name, you know that Xuanyuan Kingdom is the descendant of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor's surname is Ji.
It is recorded in the "Naturalist Chronicles" that the country of Xuanyuan, when it is poor in the mountains, its immortal is 800 years old. The wilderness of the heavens, and the dance of the birds. The people eat phoenix eggs and drink nectar.
It means that people here live to be 800 years old is short-lived, and you can think about it, casually living 800 years old, which is tantamount to a fantasy in the world.
In "Overseas Western Classics", it is said: When Xuanyuan Kingdom was in this poor mountain, its immortal person was 800 years old. In the north of the women's country, the human face is a snake body, and the tail is handed over.
Translation: Xuanyuan Kingdom is near the poor mountain, and the people who do not live long here live to be 800 years old. They were on the north side of the women's kingdom, with the face of a man, the body of a serpent, and their tails coiled over their heads.
"The Great Wilderness of the West" also says: There is a Xuanyuan country. The south of the rivers and mountains is auspicious, and the immortal is 800 years old.
Translated: There is a Xuanyuan country. It is auspicious for the people there to live on the south side of the country, and some of them do not live long to be 800 years old.
In the Book of Mountains and Seas, many of the gods recorded are human-faced snake bodies, even the human emperor Fuxi and Nuwa are human-faced snake bodies, maybe the gods of ancient times are like this.
But coincidentally, there are many gods in Greek mythology with snake faces, and even the Egyptian pyramids, although they are sphinxes, are likely to be similar to this one.
Is it really a coincidence?
Moreover, the people of Xuanyuan Kingdom seem to know some feng shui, and they like to live in the south of rivers and mountains.
The south side of the mountain is easier to understand, the south side of the mountain has good sunshine, and the north side of the mountain just blocks the cold wind from the north.
And what about the south side of the river? It's about the same as the feeling south of the Yellow River, or south of the Yangtze River, and modern people will slowly experience it.
Fuxi and Nuwa can be regarded as the originators of the Yanxia civilization, they have always appeared in the image of a human-faced snake body, just like in the fairy sword, Ling'er is a descendant of Nuwa, so it is also a human-faced snake body.
This is just a little bit of the surface of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, the real Xuanyuan Kingdom is extremely mysterious, and no one has been able to unveil their mystery so far.
The third is the Immortal Nation.
It is recorded in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness South Classic": "There is an immortal country, surnamed A, and Ganmu for food." ”。
The "Classic of the Sea" in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" records: "To the east of the quicksand, between the black waters, there is a mountain named Immortal Mountain." , which is the "mountain of immortality".
However, the people of the undead country are just the opposite of the people of the White Republic, they are all dark, their complexion is like that of a very human, and there is a tree in their country, which is called the immortal tree.
The fruit on the tree is the immortal fruit, and eating this fruit can lead to immortality, which shows that the people of the immortal kingdom rely on external objects to prolong their lifespan, just like the mythical elixir of immortality.
But this is very different from the White Republic and the Xuanyuan Kingdom, especially the Xuanyuan Kingdom, which makes it impossible to understand why they will not die for a long time.
It is said that Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor once went to the undead country to exchange an immortal tree, brought it back to the palace and planted it, and arranged for a three-eyed beast to take care of it, as for what the Yellow Emperor used in exchange, no one knows.
The Immortal Tree is the treasure of the Immortal Country, they will not hand it over so easily, the Yellow Emperor must have opened some tempting conditions.
There is a record in "Huainanzi Lan Yin Xun": "Yi asked for the medicine of immortality to the Queen Mother of the West, and E'e stole to run to the moon, advocating that there was mourning, and there was no way to continue." This is a well-known allusion to Chang'e's running to the moon, and it is also recorded in the Guizang Yi.
The elixir of the Queen Mother of the West here should be the immortal fruit.
It's a pity that no one knows the specific location of the Immortal Kingdom, and if they do, I'm afraid that there will be a great turmoil that will disturb the Three Realms and Six Realms, and this Immortal Fruit is much more powerful than the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
The ginseng fruit tree is the spiritual root of heaven and earth, which was born at the beginning of Hongmeng, and the tree blooms once every three thousand years, bears fruit every three thousand years, and matures after three thousand years.
The short head is 10,000 years, and only thirty are born.
Those who are destined, if they smell it, will live to be three hundred and sixty years old; Eat one, and you will live for 47,000 years.
It can be seen that the immortal tree is a more precious treasure than the ginseng fruit tree.
This fourth immortal kingdom is the kingdom of Wuqi.
The Unenlightened Kingdom is even more interesting and mysterious, as the people without the Enlightenment are infertile, and there is no distinction between male and female.
The country without enlightenment is a long-term shareholder, and there is no enlightenment for people. --From "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"
The strangest part is that since they are infertile, how can they reproduce and continue the bloodline?
