Chapter 62: Lao Zhou's Arrangement
"Alas, it's the same as the last time I flew from Shudu, my ass hasn't been hot yet, and I'm going to get off the plane again, I want to live on it for a long time!" The stallion lamented.
"Okay, big stallion, then we'll go, you can live here by yourself, and we'll leave together when we get back." I said.
"No, I'm just saying that, let's go! Let Ma Ye and I set foot on the land of Tokyo and express my feelings! The stallion shouted, and the two stewardesses in the cabin covered their mouths and laughed.
"Let's go, it's over." Tatsuku didn't have time to listen to the stallion's idle chatter and brushed past the stallion.
"Wait, I'm going down too, and no one of the inverted fighting teams will be missing." The sound of the stallion sounded in the back, keeping up with us.
Soon we got into the special car sent by the Fuso branch of the Yueshi Group to pick us up, here they seemed to be a little more low-key, the car that came to pick us up was two Odysseys, Yue Mingmo and Yue Nu got into the front one, and I and the others sat in the second car, reluctantly said goodbye to this extremely luxurious Bombardier Global series private jet, and left Haneda Airport in Tokyo.
"Hey, although this car is not bad, it is far inferior to Alpha who came to pick us up from the magic capital." The stallion complained.
"Hehe, Master Dumas, after all, this is in the territory of another country, it is better to be a person and do things in a low-key manner, and to make less trouble is to earn." Lao Zhou said.
"By the way, Lao Zhou, what is our itinerary next?" I asked, I am very anxious about how to carry out the work of finding Xu Fu's tomb, because this is something that cannot be found in all history books, let alone the illusory elixir, otherwise, with the strength of the emperors of the Central Plains, it would be nice to find an immortal elixir and eat it for a thousand years.
"Then we're going to check into the hotel, and then we're going to have an antique fair, and we're going to have to do a series of activities, and you have to attend." Lao Zhou said.
"No, Lao Zhou, you are also an old man of the Yueshi Group, you must know what our old business is, shouldn't you find a place to fight? How did it become a commercial activity again? The stallion asked.
"Don't be impatient, the place you are going to this time is different from other ancient tombs, you know an accurate point or range in advance, as long as you go in the right direction and use the secret techniques of your respective families, you can find the entrance to the ancient tomb, but this time is different, so the chairman has made detailed arrangements when he comes." Lao Zhou said.
"But I still can't figure it out, what does this have to do with the exhibition we have to attend, although I don't know the exact location of Xu Fu's tomb, I have collected several ancient books that may be the location of Xu Fu's tomb, and after checking them one by one, there should still be gains." I said with a frown.
Xu Fu, that is, Xu Shi, the word Junfang, was a native of Qi State (Shandong Peninsula) in the Qin period, and a famous scholar. More than 2,200 years ago, Qin Shi Huang achieved supreme power, and in order to enjoy such power permanently, he delusionally wanted to obtain the art of immortality.
Therefore, he constantly sent people to seek the elixir of immortality. Once, after Qin Shi Huang went to Mount Tai to seal the Zen, the eastern tour passed through Longkou - it was still called Huangxian at that time, under the arrangement of the local leader, Fang Shi Xu Fu met the emperor as a local celebrity, and continued to investigate with the group.
When he arrived in Langya (now Jiaonan), Xu Fu officially wrote that there were three gods in the Bohai Sea, and there were immortals living in it.
Qin Shi Huang was very happy, gave him a lot of gold and silver treasures, and ordered him to go to the sea to seek immortals. But not long after, Xu Fu came back, saying that he had seen the immortals, but the immortals were too polite, and needed beautiful boys and women and various craftsmen's utensils as gifts to get the elixir, so Qin Shi Huang sent 5,000 boys and women to go to sea with Xu Fu again.
The following year, Qin Shi Huang toured the east again, and came to Xu Fu by the way, although he encountered the Assassin Zhang Liang on the way to attack with a sledgehammer, but he escaped the catastrophe and still arrived in Langya as originally planned, but unfortunately did not see Xu Fu.
The next time he saw Xu Fu was ten years later, his third tour to the east.
Xu Fu still hadn't found the elixir. His explanation is like this: he was about to get the immortal medicine, but there were big fish on the sea to protect the immortal mountain, and the success was lost.
This time, Qin Shi Huang personally led the archers to the sea to fight with the big Jiaoyu, killed a big shark, and rushed back, thinking that it would be good now, Xu Fu could finally get the elixir.
However, he still did not wait for the elixir, and on the way back to Xianyang, he fell ill and died, and his subordinates did not mourn in order to usurp the throne, and the people of the whole country did not know.
Xu Fu, who had no excuses, was also difficult to ride a tiger for a while, so in 210 BC, he led a mighty team of immortal seekers across the ocean to find the ethereal Three Divine Mountains and elixirs.
Legend has it that he finally found a place with abundant water and plants, established himself as king, and never returned to the Central Plains again.
"Historical Records" also said: "Xu Fude Plain Guangze, stop the king from coming." "So, where did Xu Fu end up?
Fuso still preserves many relics related to Xufu, such as Xufu landing place, Xufu Temple, Xufu mound, Xufujing, etc. Among them, more than 30 places, such as Saga City and Shingu City, are said to be the places where Xu Fu landed in Japan that year.
In the ancient history of Fuso, the Jomon culture, which lasted for more than 6,000 years, was abruptly interrupted around the third century B.C., and the civilization process of the Fuso Islands jumped from the Stone Age to the era of combining gold and stone.
This role is generally believed in historiographical circles to be immigrants from outside the archipelago, and it is the large-scale collective migration from outside that brings new cultures.
And Sima Qian's "Historical Records" records that Xu Fu's trip to the sea to seek immortals happened during this period, which has to attract the attention of historians.
However, the record of Xu Fu's whereabouts in the "Historical Records" only has the words "Xu Fu has to be Guangze on the plain, and the king does not come", where is Guangze in the plain? No one knows.
Since then, no convincing archaeological evidence has been found.
This is because in the Fuso Kingdom, written historical materials only appeared in the seventh century AD, and most of the ancient literary history was handed down by word of mouth, and its credibility is limited.
Therefore, to find out exactly where Xu Fu landed in Fuso and where Xu Fu was really buried, the difficulty level of this quest is not explained by the Nightmare level.
At that time, our country was in the midst of the strife of the nations, years after years of war, the common people in order to escape the war, have to go to the sea to the east, later these people according to the legend of Xu Fu Dongdu, continue to carry out artistic processing and expansion, now want to trace the source, difficult!
But Xu Fu definitely went to Japan and settled here, and I am convinced of this, because since Sima Qian's "Historical Records" recorded, the "Book of Han" of Bangu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" of Jin Chenshou, and the "Book of the Later Han" of Fan Ye of the Southern Song Dynasty all recorded the deeds of Xu Fu who went to sea to seek immortals, and there is no contradiction in the content of the "Historical Records".
However, the Zuzhou, Yingzhou, Yizhou, Lanzhou, Yu, Penglai, Abbot and other places that Xu Fu has visited are all illusory place names, and it is even more difficult to find clues to the immortal medicine in these place names!
"Hehe, Young Master Ouyang, most of those various news are not credible, otherwise there will always be one of the ancient emperors who can obtain the elixir, and there is a purpose for letting you participate in the exhibition, because your Miao Dao is one of the exhibits this time." Lao Zhou said.
"What?" We were all taken aback, including Takujiu.
"Alright, everyone, please get off the bus, the hotel has arrived, this is the most expensive hotel in Tokyo, Fuso Province - Ricaton Hotel." Lao Zhou didn't give us time to ask questions, and continued.
