Chapter 71 The Netherworld

It is rumored that after Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, his greatest wish was to seek immortality, as long as he did not die for a day, the rule of the Qin Dynasty would not end.

It is rumored that in the coastal area of the war and chaos, many soldiers died on the battlefield, at this time there was a crow flying by, holding the fairy grass in its mouth, feeding the fairy grass to the dead, it had the effect of resurrecting the dead, this matter was seen by the soldiers of the Qin State, and reported to Qin Shi Huang, Qin Shi Huang then ordered to begin to seek the elixir of life,

Qin Shi Huang sent someone is Xu Fu, it is rumored that there is a fairy mountain in the East China Sea Penglai Holy Land, there are many immortals living in the mountain, the method of immortality can be found in Penglai Immortal Island, and this Xu Fu, this is a smart man, he is a scholar, proficient in various astronomy and geography, and helpful, after Qin Shi Huang sealed Zen in Mount Tai, when he toured the east, he saw him, Qin Shi Huang appreciated his talent, so he kept him by his side, and then trusted him to find the elixir of immortality,

Looking for medicine, naturally need reserve resources, this Xu Fu from Qin Shi Huang asked for many gold and silver treasures, silk and satin, as a gift to the gods, who knows three times in a row, although Xu Fu claimed to have seen the immortals, but never been able to ask for the elixir, legend has it that when the fourth time to ask for medicine, Xu Fu defeated the big fish guarding around the fairy island, and successfully obtained the elixir of immortality, but at that time Qin Shi Huang died of illness on the way back to Xianyang,

As for the elixir of life, it has lost its whereabouts, and no one even knows whether Xu Fu returned to the mainland, because at that time, Zhao Gao sought power, pointed to the deer as a horse, and concealed the news of Qin Shi Huang's death, and Xu Fu, who was originally under Qin Shi Huang, naturally could not go back to die, of course, he fled to the paradise with Qin Shi Huang's "gift to the gods" given to him,

Of course, from the perspective of modern people, these stories have a very strong story color, and no one knows the truth or falsehood of the elixir.

"Immortality is possible," Liu Zhu asked suspiciously,

I smiled: "Don't forget, Lu Yi has lived for hundreds of years,"

Lu Yi said embarrassedly: "Actually, I should be over a hundred years old, but I have been sealed for a long time,"

The only thing in the world that can be immortal is zombies, zombies jump out of the Six Realms, not in the Five Elements, can not eat, drink, sleep, and heal their wounds, such a perverted ability, even if you want to die, it is not so simple, not to mention that Lu Yi is still a corpse, blocking the grudge corpse, Maoshan was so prosperous back then, and he did not completely kill him, but sealed him underground,

"So, do you believe that passage," Murong said, "The North of the Netherworld, the Nine Abysses of the Deep Pool, the Hell Yin Soldiers, the Dragon City and the Tiger Capital, the Qin Years are immortal, the thousand years are the same, the law of immortality, you are at ease,"

I touched the dragon-shaped jade pendant on my neck and asked Xu Hongmeng: "Hong Meng, didn't your grandmother mention anything about this jade pendant before her death?"

Xu Hongmeng shook his head: "Never, grandma just told me not to open the box, and didn't say anything else,"

Liu Zhu sighed: "None of the people here are ordinary people, I can guess it, everyone should have guessed it,"

Xu Hongmeng, Xu Fu, their surname is Du Xu, this is already very telling, I said: "Hong Meng, maybe you are a descendant of Xu Fu,"

Xu Hongmeng was also taken aback by her own life experience, she was lonely since she was a child, her father was still tortured in prison, and she was poor, she never thought that she would be Xu Fu's descendant, and the money that Xu Fu took away back then was all lost by her ancestors.

Liu Ying said: "Didn't you say before that someone came to trouble Hong Meng......

I just remembered what Xu Hongmeng saw in the dormitory building not long ago, the spirit worshipper obviously came for a purpose, and now it seems that it is for this dragon-shaped jade pendant, so isn't the secret of this jade pendant leaked out,

When we asked Xu Hongmeng, we saw her blushing and taking out her mobile phone and opening Weibo, which was a selfie of hers, and she was wearing a dragon-shaped jade pendant on her white neck.

Lingqing said: "You quickly delete this photo, otherwise more people will come to us for trouble,"

Xu Hongmeng deleted all photos with jade pendants according to his words,

The last time I came to find trouble, the spirit priest can know the meaning of the dragon-shaped jade pendant, which means that his identity is definitely not simple, this secret of immortality is what everyone yearns for, and it is normal for someone to come out and snatch it, now that we know this secret, we suddenly feel the pressure doubled, as if there are countless pairs of eyes staring at us in secret,

"How to deal with it," Liu Zhu asked,

"Rather than letting those thieves secretly plan to snatch this jade pendant, let's take the initiative and find the secret of immortality," I proposed.

Murong said very rationally: "But immortality is always a legend, and there will definitely be many difficulties and obstacles on the way to find it, you are sure to go, it is likely that it will be a failure in the end,"

Murong's words made everyone fall into contemplation, whether to go or not, this is a question worth pondering,

"That's it, vote to decide," Liu Ying said, "I agree with what Murong said, there is no need for everyone to make trouble for themselves, now I don't approve of two votes,"

Tongtong said in Xu Hongmeng's arms: "Of course I support my brother, two votes in favor,"

Liu Zhu thought for a while and hesitated: "I'd better abstain, just make up a singular number for the rest of you, otherwise you won't be able to make a decision,"

The rest of the people are only Lingqing, Lu Yi, and Xu Hongmeng.

Lu Yi actually stood on Murong's side unexpectedly: "I don't know if there is really an elixir of life in this world, but immortality is not a good thing, so I don't approve of looking for it,"

Now there are three votes against, and only two votes in favor.

"I voted for it," Xu Hongmeng said suddenly, "Maybe I can learn about my ancestors there, people always have the mood to look for their families, so I want to go and see,"

Now the pros and cons are mixed, and the decision finally falls into Lingqing's hands, and I shrugged my shoulders, with my understanding of Lingqing, her thinking pattern is similar to that of Murong, and naturally she will not support us to take risks without a purpose, so this voting meeting has already had a result, I touched the jade pendant in my hand, if I don't look for the elixir, just throw it away, those who want immortality will naturally snatch it, but it has nothing to do with us,

I thought about it, so I walked out, wanting to lose the jade pendant, but I didn't expect Lingqing to pull me and say, "What are you doing, I haven't spoken yet,"

I said, "You're against it,"

Lingqing glared at me, and then said three words that surprised me: "I approve,"

This time it was Murong's turn to be surprised, Murong and I were the people who knew Lingqing the most in the audience, but I didn't expect her to make such a decision at all, and I was at a loss, Lingqing explained: "I've been too bored lately, just looking for some excitement,"

Lingqing's answer made everyone speechless, but it still decided to stay or go.

Now that it has been decided, Murong will not say more, because it will definitely not be him who will take the risk when the time comes, he has an important position, even if he wants to, he can't go, and Liu Ying is the same, so this time there are only Liu Zhu, Xu Hongmeng, Lu Yi, Lingqing and me who will go to find the elixir of life.

Murong took the initiative to take on the task of deciphering the secrets, and without saying a word, he entered the study with the thirty-two words, and began to study the mystery in this passage.

It's late at night, everyone is a little tired, after making a decision, they are ready to go back to the room to rest, I glanced at Lingqing, and whispered: "You vote for it, it shouldn't be as simple as being bored,"

Lingqing smiled: "I don't have too many reasons, I just want to be on your side,"

……

……

The legendary netherworld, that is, the underworld, is in the north, to be precise, in the northwest, there is a record in "Chu Ci Tianwen": "The day is not good, the candle dragon is not shining," Zhuyun: "In the northwest of the sky, there is a country of the netherworld and no sun, and there is a dragon candle and shines on it,"

Therefore, at the funeral rites of the Han people, the corpse of Chen Fu must be bent sideways, with his head facing west and facing north, in order to guide the deceased soul to the direction of the underworld and hell.

From the classics, there is a fairy mountain in the northwest, which is also the dragon vein of China, that is Kunlun Mountain, Kunlun Mountain has been called "the mountain of heaven and hell" since ancient times, and the legend of the Queen Mother of the West who is in charge of life and death lives there, the underworld, in the north of Kunlun Mountain,

"Naturalist" cloud: "Kunlun Mountain North, the earth turns, 3,600 miles down, there are eight Xuanyun Du, 200,000 li, the ground has four pillars, the four pillars are 100,000 miles wide, the ground has 3,600 shafts, and the dogs and teeth are worshipped,"

There are countless records about the netherworld in ancient books, which also provides us with a lot of help to decipher the secrets in the thirty-two characters.

At dawn, Murong finally walked out of the study, and everyone gathered in the hall, waiting for Murong's decryption.

North of the Netherworld, deep pools and nine abysses,

Further north of the netherworld in the north of Kunlun Mountain, there is a deep pool of nine abysses,

Hell Yin Soldiers, Dragon City Tiger Capital,

When looking for a deep pool, there will be many difficulties and obstacles.

Qin years will not die, a thousand years will be,

illustrates the source of the legacy of the thirty-two characters,

The law of eternal life, in it,

The last sentence doesn't need to be explained anymore,

Liu Zhu held his mobile phone and fiddled with the satellite map for a long time, but still couldn't understand Murong's meaning, Murong smiled, took out five maps from the study, and distributed them to everyone: "I investigated all night, and I have determined the location of the Nine Abyss Deep Pool, and marked it on the map,"

I opened the map and saw that it was marked with all kinds of diagrams, and there were all kinds of lines drawn on the map, the content was extremely detailed, and I could see that Murong must have spent a lot of effort last night.

"I've already asked people to book tickets for you, and in three days, everyone will set off for Kunlun Mountain," Murong said.

Xu Hongmeng hesitated: "That...... Can I go see my father before I go,"
