Chapter 564: Immortals!
"Demon Hunter! is a god who has given the power to slay demons. From ancient times to the present day, hunting our vampires for a living!"
Cain explained to Chu Chen:
"We vampires, though cursed, are immortal. But the only thing I fear most is the power of light from the demon hunters!"
Chu Chen was puzzled: "Those demon hunters actually came to this mausoleum, not just to chase and kill you, right?"
Chu Chen felt that they had come all the way to come, and it would not be so simple.
"It is worthy of the well-known Master Chu, you asked the core question. This is also an important thing I originally wanted to tell you—a secret that none of you Eastern cultivators know!" Cain said mysteriously, "That's the main purpose of these demon hunters here!"
"Mysterious purpose!?" Chu Chen felt that it must have something to do with the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang.
"Legend has it that in this tomb of King Qin in your east, there is also a breed similar to our vampires in the west—that is, the living dead as you collectively call them! And the great Yellow Emperor who sleeps here is the blood of the undead!"
After Chu Chen heard this, he was very surprised, what does this King of Qin have to do with the undead clan?
"We also have an undead race in the East?" Chu Chen was very puzzled, "Isn't this legendary population in your Western World?"
Cain smiled: "Master Chu, although you are very powerful, you are still young after all." I've lived for thousands of years, I've been all over the world, I've seen any books. Another strange book of your Orient, which records in detail the mysteries of your ancient Orient, you probably haven't read it seriously......"
Chu Chen asked curiously, "What book is it?"
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas!" Cain said, gesturing to his head, "I'm a thinking library here! Books on the world's cultures are in it! including you in the East!"
Chu Chen secretly exclaimed, he didn't expect this to be a vampire who loves to learn!?
This is completely different from the murderous and bloodthirsty population seen on the TV screen in the past, even subversive!
"I know the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but I really haven't read it......" In fact, not only Chu Chen, although this ancient book is from China, but modern people have rarely read this book - they only hear the title of the book, but they do not see the appearance of the book.
"Then I'll teach you a lesson today......" Cain laughed, "Let me, a Western vampire, tell you the story of the Classic of Mountains and Seas!"
"Haha......" Chu Chen felt a little funny. It's like asking an Oriental to explain the story of the Bible to a Westerner, putting the cart before the horse!
But Chu Chen was interested and wanted to see what this ancient vampire had to think about it.
"I want to hear it!" Chu Chen said.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Overseas Southern Classics!" Cain recounted earnestly, "the immortal people are in the east, and they are black, long-lived, and immortal." One is wearing the east of Hungary!"
"There are hills, there are immortal trees on them, and eating them is longevity!"
Cain briefly retold the contents of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" in ancient Chinese.
Then he asked, "Can you understand the meaning of these two passages?"
Chu Chen nodded, "It's basically understandable......"
Chu Chen also went to nine years of compulsory education and learned some ancient Chinese. For this form of classical Chinese, it seems that I don't understand it.
"To put it simply, in your ancient East, there was an ancient race, mainly black, and everyone lived a long life without dying! And where there are hills, there are immortal trees on the mountains, and if you eat the fruit of the immortal trees, you will be able to live forever......
"Master Chu, can you think of anything?" Cain asked.
Chu Chen seemed to have thought of something, but he seemed to be missing some key points and couldn't figure it out. It's like seeing flowers in a fog!
Seeing Chu Chen's ignorant appearance, Cain smiled, pointed to the mausoleum, and said with a smile: "What do you think of the color here?"
Chu Chen raised his head, looked around, and suddenly found that although this grand mausoleum was magnificent, the surrounding tone was dark, and most of it was mainly black!
"Black ......" Immediately after, Chu Chen seemed to recall that once in history class, the teacher once said, "The national fortune of the Qin State seems to be still black!?"
"Yes!" Cain pointed out, "It is also recorded in your Han book: The Qin people are still black!
Under the guidance of Cain's circumstantial evidence detonation, at this moment, Chu Chen seemed to have finally grasped the key point and connected it all!
"The Qin people are still dark, and the water is ...... The undead are in the east, and they are black, long-lived, and immortal......"
Chu Chen was shocked, he had never heard anyone connect the two, this was the first time!
"Could it be that in the Book of Mountains and Seas, this 'immortal people' recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas is—"
"Old Qin people!" Cain replied, "The old Qin people are the undead people of ancient times! The 'black people' recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas does not mean their skin color, but refers to the 'black' of this population, and black is respected!
Chu Chen was dumbfounded when he heard this, and some completely subverted his cognition!
If this is really as Cain said, all this is too incredible! How could the Qin people have such a prominent status?
"But I haven't heard of the rumors of the longevity of the old Qin people? During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qin people, like the people of the other Six Kingdoms, would also be born, old, sick and die......" Chu Chen felt strange, this seemed to be a little different from the "immortal people" mentioned by Cain!
Cain said: "This involves the second sentence I just said: There are hills and mountains, and there are immortal trees, and eating them is longevity!"
"Could it be ......" Chu Chen immediately thought of Qin Shi Huang sending Fang Shi Shi Xu Fu to look for the immortal elixir overseas!?
"The First Emperor of yours here, that is, the King of Qin, once sent a large number of people to look for this immortal tree!" Cain said, "There must have been some change that separated the ancient undead from the immortal tree!
Chu Chen was shocked beyond words: "This is incredible!
"Rumors...... Xu Fu has returned! He finally helped King Qin and found the legendary immortal tree! All the bloodlines of the old Qin people can live forever if they eat it!"
Cain's eyes sparkled!
"This undead tree, maybe there is a way to make us become like the ancient undead, and no longer fear the light!"
Cain led the crowd to this mausoleum, and what they were seeking, or waiting for, was the immortal tree that Xu Fu had retrieved from overseas, helping them lift the curse on their bodies!
"You can't see it...... Suddenly, from another corridor, a group of people, all holding a glowing vessel in their hands, said coldly, "Cain!
"This is where you are buried!"
