Chapter 297: The Book of the National Seal

At the same time as the palace door opened, a burst of golden light rushed to my face, and I subconsciously stepped back, and Dao Qi had already protected my whole body. After making sure there was no damage, I took two steps forward and looked up at the palace.

The scene inside the hall is naturally different from the outside, although the furnishings are only a few cases of square wooden boxes, but there are several vermilion pillars standing in the palace, and each pillar is engraved with a three-toed golden dragon standing tall.

The symbolism of the dragon naturally does not need to be said, as far as I know, from the Shang and Zhou dynasties to the Yuan Dynasty, the dragon's claws are mostly three-toed. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the dragon claw has become a representative of different classes, and the number of dragon claws is divided into, five for the king, four for the prince, and three for the official.

Looking at the decoration inside the palace, it is not very splendid, and from the few cases, it seems that this palace should be a relatively old building. In addition, we came in from Guanlongtai, and the place of Langyatai was originally built by order of Qin Shi Huang, so it is very likely that this palace is from that period.

I glanced at the sacrificial evil spirits, and without saying a word, I raised my feet and entered the palace gate, carefully guarding as I walked towards the several peace cases. I stood in front of the Jihe desk, and I didn't rush to open the wooden box, but looked around the situation inside the palace, and after making sure that there was nothing abnormal, I slowly reached out to get the wooden box.

It's just that as soon as my hand touched the wooden box, I heard a faint dragon groan coming from inside, and with this dragon groan, the dragon qi that I had absorbed into my body before also began to become active, stirring my heavenly veins a little unstable. Fortunately, the dragon's groan only lasted for a few seconds before it quieted down, and the dragon qi in my body eased as well.

I was full of curiosity about the contents of the wooden box, judging from the dragon's groan, there should be a dragon vein in it, or the dragon vein was sealed on something inside. I paused and slowly opened the wooden box, and the contents really lit up my eyes.

I saw that there was a seal with a radius of four inches and five dragons on the wooden box. I carefully held the seal in the palm of my hand and looked at it carefully. There is no other special place on it except for the five dragon bodies, but there are eight small seals engraved at the bottom of it, and I pondered for a long time before I recognized these words "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity".

Seeing this, I sighed in my heart, seals, letters, and rights. Throughout the ages, seals have been a symbol of power and identity, a manifestation of responsibility and credit, and a beloved thing for literati and scholars. Ordinary dignitaries will have a seal engraved on it.

But this seal engraved with the words "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity" is by no means something that ordinary magnates can hold. According to historical legend, the person who engraved these words on the seal was Li Si of the Qin Dynasty. And the one who owns this seal is Qin Shi Huang, who is known as the "ancestral dragon", and this seal is also known as the national seal.

The seal of the country is the seal of the Chinese emperors, which was engraved by the order of Qin Shi Huang. Seen as a symbol of dynastic legitimacy. Its square circle is four inches, on the New York hand over five dragons, the front is engraved with the eight seal characters of Li Si's book "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang", as a token of "imperial power, orthodoxy and legitimacy". Subsequently, the emperors of all dynasties took this seal as a symbol, and they were regarded as rare and precious as a heavy weapon of the country. If you get it, it symbolizes that it is "ordered by the sky", and if you lose it, it shows that its "qi has been exhausted". Those who ascend to the throne without this seal are ridiculed as "white emperors", which appear to be lacking in confidence and are despised by the world. As a result, the people who want to seek great treasures will fight for me, causing the jade seal of the country to change hands repeatedly, and it has been in Chixian County, Shenzhou for more than 2,000 years, flickering and flickering, and finally disappeared.

Although the whereabouts of the heirloom jade seal have long been unknown, the seal in my hand at this time is completely consistent with the heirloom seal in the ancient books, and I can't determine whether it is true or false, but it still makes me a little unbelievable.

However, there is also a theory that according to legend, in 219 BC, when Qin Shi Huang was touring south to Dongting Lake, the wind and waves suddenly rose, and the boat he was riding was about to be destroyed. The first emperor threw the jade seal of the country in the lake, worshiped the gods and towns, and crossed the lake safely. Eight years later, when he traveled to Pingshu Road in Huayin, someone stood in the middle of the road with a jade seal and said to the First Emperor's attendants: "Please return this seal to Zulong (Qin Shi Huang)." "I can't see anything. The jade seal of the country was restored to Qin.

From this point of view, it would be reasonable if the jade seal of the country was dropped by Huayin Pingshu at that time, otherwise how could the Qi of the Qin Dynasty only be a short fifteen years, but I don't know how it got here.

And the heirloom jade seal in my hand can obviously feel that there is dragon breath in it, which just confirms what I just thought. The heirloom jade seal in his hand may be the one of Qin Shi Huang, and there is also a dragon vein sealed in it.

The sacrificial evil spirit on the side saw that I was a little sluggish, and asked me why with a little doubt, so I told him what I thought in my heart, and after listening to it, I didn't feel as emotionally as I did. He was a savage, and of course he didn't understand what it meant to be in my hands.

After that, he was about to put the heirloom seal back into the wooden box, but when he swept his eyes, he saw that there was a white silk-like thing at the bottom of the wooden box. Earlier, my attention was all on the heirloom seal, and I didn't even notice that there was another thing inside. Immediately, he took it out.

This thing feels silky to the touch, and it suddenly reminds me of the Warring States Silk Book recorded in the history books, which is also known as the Silk Book, which is written on white silk. Because the material is special and very precious, it is often used to write more important information.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly unfolded it, but found that there was not a word on the two-foot-square silk book except for a faint seal. I held the national seal in one hand and the silk book in the other, looking at the seal on the silk book, an idea suddenly popped into my mind. Immediately pressed the national seal to the position of the seal. But I tried several times but nothing happened.

This makes me a little strange, it stands to reason that since this silk book and the national seal are put together, there must be a connection between the two, but why can't I react? Is it a special method?

After thinking about it, I tried to mobilize Dao Qi to slowly input it into the Chuan Guo Seal, and finally had a reaction at this moment, but it was not the silk book that reacted, but a dragon chant sounded in the Chuan Guo Seal, and then a faint golden light was emitted. I forcibly suppressed the fluctuations in my body, not daring to relax in the slightest, and while increasing the delivery of Dao Qi, I stared at the changes in the national seal. Gradually, the golden light around the seal became stronger and stronger, so that I didn't dare to look at it directly. Until nearly half of the Dao Qi in my body was lost, the scene in front of me was completely obscured by this golden light. I heard a dragon groan again, and the sound was deafening, as if a dragon was roaring in my ear.

After a few moments, the dragon's groan stopped, and the surrounding golden light also dissipated. When I opened my eyes, there were rows of small golden characters in front of me, these words were all small seals, I couldn't recognize them for a while, and I could only vaguely understand a rough idea.

This seems to be Xu Fu's trip to the sea, I didn't pay attention to some of the scattered little things, but focused on the time and route of going to sea, what happened on the road, and at the end of the description, there was a three-character place name, which was "Liubo Mountain"!

Seeing this, I couldn't help but be happy, but at this moment, these small characters in the sky suddenly dissipated, and they were all gone. Immediately afterwards, there was another click, and the heirloom seal in his hand was also shattered, and a gust of wind suddenly rolled up outside the palace, which was coming towards us.

The wind seemed to be powerful and unstoppable, sweeping us all into the air, and as our bodies were swept into it, our consciousness slowly blurred.

I was woken up by the sacrificial spirit, but when I woke up, I found that we were standing in front of the big rock on the dragon viewing platform, and I looked at the sacrificial evil spirit and wanted to ask what was going on, but I found that he was shaking his head at me with the same face as usual. Everything just now seemed too weird to me, and I felt like I had entered the old man's butterfly dream in Laoshan before.

But fortunately, I had already got the answer I wanted, and I was about to leave, only to find that there were many cracks in the boulder in front of me. I paused, and put the Dao Qi Hui and my hand on the stone. The stone no longer has the same scene as before, and it seems that everything here has been reduced to ruins with the dissipation of those small characters, but it is a pity that the heirloom seal.

The dragon roar just now resounded through the heavens and the earth, I am afraid that it has already alarmed the people of the Xuan Society, and I can't stay here for a long time. Thinking of this, I hurried back to the hotel with the sacrificial evil spirits.

Lying on the bed, I kept thinking about what I had described in the small print. From it, I learned that the time chosen by Xu Fu for the first time to go to sea was October 19 of the lunar calendar, which did not have much adoption value, just a very ordinary auspicious day. The place of departure is indeed like the Langya Terrace recorded in the history books. It's just that they sailed at sea for months, and they didn't find nothing, as recorded in ancient books. Instead, I did find the Immortal Mountain, but this Immortal Mountain was not the "Three Divine Mountains" they expected, but the Liubo Mountain that I was anxious to find.

Although he found this Liubo Mountain, Xu Fu is a monk, and he is also the so-called Taoist priest now, and he is practicing Dao Qi. That Liubo Mountain seemed to have a kind of barrier, and ordinary people or people who cultivated Dao Qi could not land at all. After lingering for a few days, Xu Fu had no choice but to return.

The only thing notable in the whole text is that there was a didong on the sea before the appearance of Liubo Mountain. The scorpion is in the east, and Mo Zhi dares to point out. This scorpion refers to the rainbow. From the text, it is known that after passing through the scorpion, the entrance to Mt. Liubo will appear.

It stands to reason that since Liubo Mountain is mentioned here, it is very likely that the specific location of Liubo Mountain will be mentioned next. It's just that there seems to be resistance in the dark, and just when I saw this, all the handwriting collapsed and dissipated, and the clues I saw in my hand disappeared again and again. It really discouraged me.
