Ye Zhiqiu's subversive remarks made us all silent, but if you think about it carefully, her speculation may not be a bold assumption without basis. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

There is no record of Lao Tzu's origin in literature and history, and with Lao Tzu's fame at that time, he was famous all over the world, he could not be a person of unknown origin, Lao Tzu is real, but the birth of Lao Tzu is full of myths and legends.

Lao Tzu is obviously deliberately concealing his identity, in the literature about the time when Peng Zu died, it happened to be the time when Lao Tzu appeared in people's sight, in the legend, Lao Tzu was born with white eyebrows and white hair, it can be seen that this person was already an old man when he appeared.

Although Peng Zu has lived for hundreds of years with Hou Zhu, with the weakening of the above ability, Peng Zu also began to age, which shows that Lao Tzu should be what Peng Zu looked like in his twilight years.

"And I also know why Peng Zu has been serving as the guardian of Tibet." I said thoughtfully.

"Why?" Gong Jue asked.

The reason is actually very simple, Peng Zu's ancestor was the person on that ship, who left a testament before leaving, hiding a treasure in the land of the dragon's back, perhaps the Peng family did not realize the importance of the testament at first.

And when Peng Zu gradually found that he was no longer aging and began to live forever, he may have understood that the treasures hidden by the ancestors of the Peng family were related to eternal life, which is also the reason why the descendants of the Peng family have been sparing no effort to track down the whereabouts of the dragon's back, but the first person to explore this relic was none other than Peng Zu.

The Peng family was in a prominent position at that time, and this mausoleum was so secret and huge that it could not be built by ordinary people, so Peng Zu guessed that the royal family may have been involved in the construction of the ruins, after all, only the king at that time had such great financial and material resources.

Therefore, although Peng Zu was ranked as the secretary, he only served as the keeper of Tibetan history, hoping to find clues related to the ancestors from the royal family's collection of books and documents, and this process lasted for hundreds of years, until Peng Zu changed his name and surname to appear as Lao Tzu, he still did not give up the exploration.

This is why Peng Zu and Lao Tzu were in different dynasties, but they have always focused on reading the literature of the royal family, and the emperor lived up to his wishes, and after hundreds of years of exploration, Peng Zu finally found a clue.

"You mean Peng Zu found the ruins under the dragon's eye?!" Xue Xinrou was taken aback.

"Didn't Zhiqiu say that Lao Tzu suddenly left the Zhou Dynasty when he was famous all over the world." I say.

Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said: "It is recorded in the historical materials that Lao Tzu saw the decline of the Zhou Dynasty, lost confidence in the Zhou Dynasty, and decided to travel west. ”

"Peng Zu has never really cared about the government in his life, who is the son of heaven is not important to him, he entered the court as an official just because he wanted to find the ruins, throughout Peng Zu's hundreds of years, all the time was spent in the mountains and seas of literature, when he changed his name and surname to become Lao Tzu, it is not difficult to see from this name, Peng Zu also knows that his time is short, he has spent his whole life looking for that ruin, how can he suddenly give up." I shook my head and said to Ye Zhiqiu. "The statement in the historical materials about Lao Tzu's departure from the dynasty is wrong."

"There is only one thing that can make Lao Tzu leave!" The palace lord suddenly realized. "He found a clue to the ruins."

I nodded, according to my speculation, the relics of the ancestors of the Peng family, the royal family must have participated in the construction at that time, why is there no record and rumors, because even if the ancestor of the Peng family has exhausted his life, he still has the ability to erase people's memories, so there is not the slightest rumor about the relics.

However, judging from the scale of the Meridian Road, in order to complete the construction of this ruin, it was not necessary to build a north-south road in the middle of the mountains, which was extremely rare in difficulty and engineering volume at that time, which is enough to show how large the scale of the ruins was.

Such a large-scale relic can not be completed in a short period of time, even if the ancestors of the Peng family erase the memories of the participants at the end, but about the construction in the Qinling Mountains, there will be more or less records, which is why Peng Zu will spend hundreds of years in the storage room, he just hopes to find clues related to this ruin from the literature.

Why did Peng Zu go through three dynasties and find nothing, and finally found clues in the Zhou Dynasty? This is all thanks to the legendary Mu Tianzi.

He had been to Kunlun Jinque, and met the gods on the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, and obtained a hundred years of life and a jade pig dragon, and at the same time, King Mu of Zhou also discovered the secret of immortality, and from that time on, it was not only Peng Zu who investigated the documents in the storage room.

As the Son of Heaven, King Zhou Mu has unique conditions and powers, and he can even see ancient books and records that Peng Zu can't access, which is why King Zhou Mu found out that the Peng family is related to the ship, but at this time, Peng Zu quickly realized that it was not a good thing that the secret of his immortality was noticed by the king, so Peng Zu changed his name and surname to become Lao Tzu.

Later, Lao Tzu should have discovered the location of the ancestral relics by looking through the documents left by King Mu of Zhou, so he left the Zhou Dynasty.

"That is to say, after Lao Tzu left Ho Jing, he came to the Meridian Valley, which just coincides with the legend about Lao Tzu here." Xue Xinrou suddenly realized.

Ye Zhiqiu nodded, the legend of Lao Tzu's journey to the west is well known, Guan Yin, who guarded the Hangu Pass, was a good observer of astronomy when he was young, loved to read ancient books, and had a profound cultivation.

The next day, the sunset is slanting westward, the light shoots eastward, suddenly I see an old man among the sparse pedestrians under the pass, riding a green ox upside down, Guan Yin watched the sky at night before this, saw the purple gas coming east, knew that there was a saint going west, the head of the purple gas was full of white clouds, knew the white hair of the saint, it was the old man's appearance, there was a green ox star before the purple gas, and the saint came by the green ox.

"Of course, this legend is unfounded, but it also proves from the side how famous Lao Tzu was at that time, Guan Yin learned that Lao Tzu wanted to get out of the customs, and refused to let go on the grounds of writing a book. Ye Zhiqiu said in a calm voice. "Purple Qi from the East is apocryphal, but Lao Tzu's writing of the Tao Te Ching is true."

"Lao Tzu lived for hundreds of years, and he intuitively read the mountains and seas of books, and his knowledge was naturally clear in his heart, and he was able to write a strange book that was handed down to future generations in one night, and this can also prove that Lao Tzu is the Peng Zu who has obtained immortality." I say.

"And the place where Lao Tzu wrote his book is in the Louguantai of Zhongnan Mountain, and later the Tao Te Ching was regarded as a classic by Taoists and became a classic book of Taoism, thus making Lao Tzu the Taoist ancestor of Taoism." Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said.

"Then where did Lao Tzu go after he left Hangu Pass?" Tian Ji asked.

"As I said before, there are two blank places in the records of Lao Tzu in literature and history, the first is about Lao Tzu's identity and origin, this question seems to be known to us, and the second is Lao Tzu's whereabouts after leaving Hangu Pass." Ye Zhiqiu said.

"Lao Tzu should have come to Meridian Valley." I said with a deep breath. "And he also found the remains of the ancestors of the Peng family, which is likely to be the rumored Immortal Palace here."

"But Lao Tzu did not live forever, the last record of Lao Tzu returned to the end of the South Mountain, and died in the end of the South Mountain, so far there is the tomb of Lao Tzu on the South Mountain, it is for this reason that the South Mountain will be known as the world's first blessed land of the immortal capital." Ye Zhiqiu said.

"That's right, it's just a rumor that Lao Tzu has been here, and so far there is no evidence to prove it, let alone that Lao Tzu has found the Immortal Palace." The palace lord was also puzzled and asked. "Why are you so sure that Lao Tzu must have found that ruin?"

"Lao Tzu has spent his whole life searching for the truth about his ancestors, and a person who has spent hundreds of years for the same thing will not give up until the day of rest."

I confidently told others that Peng Zu fled south to Wuyi Mountain to live in seclusion because he was evading Yin Tianzi's pursuit, but King Zhou sent someone to ask him to come out of the mountain, and Peng Zu agreed without hesitation, which shows that he would rather risk the possibility of his immortal secret being discovered, and continue to find the truth about the ancestors of the Peng family.

Even later, his immortal secret was discovered by Zhou Tianzi again, this time Peng Zu did not choose to flee, but changed his name and surname to hide people's eyes, which shows that Peng Zu knew that his time was running out, and he didn't want to waste the rest of his time on the run, he changed from Peng Zu to Lao Tzu, and still continued to investigate.

Lao Tzu left Haojing, indicating that he must have made a discovery, just as Ye Zhiqiu said, Lao Tzu's whereabouts after leaving Hangu Pass are blank in the history books, and the legend told to us by Orion just filled the time when Lao Tzu disappeared.

It is rumored in the mountains that Lao Tzu found the Immortal Palace of Eternal Life, and realized the avenue here, but in my opinion, Lao Tzu must have found the remains of the ancestors of the Peng family, as for the enlightenment, it is made up by later generations, Lao Tzu disappeared in the Meridian Valley for a long time, and when he reappeared, he did not return to the Tibetan room, but chose to go to Zhongnan Mountain.

In my opinion, the reason is actually very simple, Lao Tzu's enlightenment is likely to be relief, he finally found the immortal palace of the ancestor of the Peng family, but he stayed in the immortal palace for many years, and in the end he did not obtain the ability of immortality.

Lao Tzu left the Immortal Palace and did not meet the storage room again, which means that he no longer needs to look for clues in those classics, he has done what he wants, as for why Lao Tzu wants to go to Zhongnan Mountain.

I put the map of the Qinling Mountains in front of the others, and said calmly with my finger on it.

"Zhongnan Mountain is less than a hundred miles away from here, Lao Tzu knows that he is about to rot wood, the ancestors of the Peng family sleep in the Meridian Valley, and Lao Tzu hopes that he will be buried in Zhongnan Mountain after his death, he wants to always be next to his ancestors."

Tian Ji slapped his thigh hard: "Yes, that's the reason, it means that we didn't find the wrong place." ”
