The earliest recorded legend of the elixir of immortality at sea was the Qin Dynasty's Xu Fu Dongdu, and for thousands of years, the topic of immortality was the most concerned by all emperors. From mummies in ancient Egypt to dried corpses unearthed in China, people are always trying to preserve their bodies that should have turned into dust, in order to one day wake up again.

This is indeed a great temptation.

So where exactly did these gold coins come from? It was Mao Ruxian who found it, or it was owned by the former owner here, so far, they have found five priceless depraved gold coins, except for the two that Wang Ling Li Xin and the others made a wish, the one in Lao Pi's hand, and the remaining two are in the eyes of this corpse.

"You're going to take it?"

"Or else?" Zheng Jiuwu carefully put the corpse away, and at the same time took two fingers into the eye sockets of the corpse and said: "Since it has such a wonderful use, it shouldn't be allowed to stay here, haven't you heard that the corpse that has not decayed for many years is easy to change after a long time?" Speaking of this, Zheng Jiuwu stopped, he frowned and said: "This reminds me of the female corpses on Xuanwu Island, to say that the corpse does not decay, that skill is much better than this." ”

"That's right," Wang Ling nodded: "This is also what I can't figure out, Mao Ruxian is able to preserve those female corpses in a very bright color, and why did he make himself look like this dried corpse, his methods are first-class, we have all understood." ”

"What do you want to do so much!" Lao Pi said: "Maybe the way to dispose of the corpse is something that one person can't do, or it can only be dealt with after death, he Mao Ruxian is here alone to find a rope to hang himself, and after death, he will burp directly, who will dispose of the corpse for him?" Is it going to be handed over to those rats? ”

Hearing this, Lao Pi's words also made some sense, but Zheng Jiuwu always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't say it, looking at the two gold coins in his eye sockets, he stuck in a few times and stopped, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Forget it, it's okay, I don't want this thing." ”

"You don't want it?" Lao Pi Ke was waiting for his words, he looked at Sha Kun and the poet and said: "In this way, I have the gold coins, and they lost them, and the plague god is to carry forward the spirit and take the initiative to give up, do you two want to?" ”

The poet timidly asked, "If you want me, you can take it?" ”

"Don't regret taking it," Lao Pi said, "You guys have no opinion, right?" Whoever takes it away will be responsible for this Mao Ruxian's ghost haunting you in the future. ”

When it comes to this, naturally no one will object anymore, after all, Wang Ling has done the same thing, and now he has no position to teach others anymore. So, Sha Kun took out two gold coins without hesitation, and sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the corpse suddenly collapsed, but he and the poet each shared one, and when he was about to take it, Zheng Jiuwu said: "Brother Sha Kun, you shouldn't take this thing." ”

"Why?" Sha Kun looked at Lao Pi and said, "I asked your opinion just now, and now you are starting to regret it again?" ”

"It's not that I regret it," Zheng Jiuwu said: "If this is the will of heaven, I think these five gold coins should be one for each of the five of us, I advise you not to mess up this game easily, you still give it to me, it does not belong to you." ”

"You ......" Sha Kun's eyes quickly dimmed, to be honest, this gold coin is indeed legendary enough, and Sha Kun does not say anything about its possession. He was indeed unwilling to give it away, but what Zheng Jiuwu said seemed to make sense, even at this time, he would not forget the instructions that the salted fish old lady gave him before leaving, and when there was a dispute, everything would be arranged by Wang Ling.

"Speak Captain," Sha Kun played with the gold coin, "Although this thing is good, I, Sha Kun, am not a stingy person, you can deal with it whatever you say." ”

"Lao Zheng, I think it will be a trouble," Wang Ling said with some concern: "You see, this is just the beginning, and we have infighting, or because of something you don't want." ”

"That's because you didn't take it," Zheng Jiuwu got up and said, "This gold coin is a sign, guiding us all the way here, and now it's too late for you to regret it." If you want me to take the gold coins, you can't lose them, otherwise it means nothing to me. ”

"Then ......" Wang Ling didn't want to go back to get it, it was thrown into the water of the wishing pond, and if he took it back, wouldn't it be a blasphemy to his wish? He looked at Li Xin, who was also a little entangled, and when she realized that the number of these gold coins was exactly five, she knew that Fang Cai's action was a little reckless. In the same way, she also understood Wang Ling's thoughts, but this little girl said: "I think Lao Pi is right, Poseidon is the god of ancient Greece, what is the use of us making a wish to him?" I guess I can't even understand the words, you wait for me here, I'll go get it back. ”

Wang Ling understood that this was a step, looking at the lonely back who turned away, Lao Pi hurriedly kicked him on the side and said, "Don't chase after it?" Why are you stupid! ”

Li Xin...... I," he said, and no explanation could wipe away the tears that swirled in the corners of her eyes, and it was not necessary to think that the wish must have something to do with the royal tomb. Women are born to take vows very sacred, and it would be a defilement of her faith to ask them to take back the words they had spilled.

"May you tell me, what wish did you make?" Looking at Wang Ling's embarrassed look, she stood by the pool with her head down, looked at the gold coins in the pool, and said, "Well, it's just a joke, why should I take it seriously......" The gold coin was slowly picked up, Li Xin bit his lip tightly, and then finally raised his little face and resolutely turned around and took the first step.

"Silly girl," Wang Ling looked at her and said softly, "I have only one wish, may you always be happy, healthy and safe......" Gently picking up the gold coin that belonged to him, he felt in his pocket, and finally took out a Wu Fen coin. It was the one his mother had given him in the panic on the day she was taken away, and it was probably the last thing his mother could give him.

This coin, in times of difficulty, did not even think of spending it, because it was a thought, the only memorial to remember his mother. He will always remember his mother's last instructions: take care of himself and take care of his sister......

"Boom!" The coin entered the water, and he folded his hands together and said to the idol: "I swear by my mother's thoughts: May she be happy all her life......"

Zheng Jiuwu has never liked to explain, and he naturally does not have any convincing explanations for the ownership of these five gold coins, all of which come from his intuition.

"Everything is fixed in the dark," he said, looking at the five gold coins in his hand, and comparing them together, "it seems that my instincts are right once again." So he lined up the five coins on the ground, and then pointed to the pattern on the back of the coins and said, "You see, these five coins are not made of one mold, but they have different patterns behind them!" ”

Legend has it that the Fallen Gold Coin was covered with the base of Ashurbanipal's scepter, but now when stacked together, a different picture finally appeared, with the back resembling a human face with a different outline and distribution of facial features, one of which looked like a woman at first glance, and four that were closer to a man's face. And what is even more coincidental is that the one with the woman pattern is still warm, and it has been soaking in the bottom of the hot spring just now.

"It's yours." Zheng Jiuwu took the lead in pushing out that one to Li Xin and said: "Take it, I believe that she may be your destiny in the future." ”

Then he divided what the four men originally got, the reason was "fate", whoever got it should be whose fate, that's all.

Does this man really have the power of a prophet of the unknown? Maybe there were, maybe not, but his approach was impossible to refuse at the moment, and everyone received their own gold coins, five, no more, no less.

"Wang Jiahui," I called out to the woman who was lying on a wicker chair on the balcony and reading a book lazily, holding a cat in her arms, which she called "Ami."

"Huh?"

"Does this Zheng Jiuwu know anything in advance?" I wondered, "Why is his intuition so accurate at every step?" It's very unscientific, and I never write stories that are logically problematic. ”

"A little patience, okay?" She took a sip of tea and said: "My father was as suspicious as you back then, but he is much more patient than you, only those who can sink will slowly approach the truth, you go on......"
