Chapter 213: The Second Half of the Bamboo Slips
I'm still curious about what is written in the second half of the bamboo slip, because after all, it is a question of whether I can be reborn. I'm used to being a dead man, but I can't keep being a dead man.
"I've been busy taking care of your aunt these days, and I've only taken a cursory look at it, and I can still be sure that this bamboo slip is real." My uncle lit a cigarette and started chatting with me.
"Uncle, does the second half of this bamboo slip record how to make me reborn? Isn't it okay for us to just follow the route recorded in the bamboo slip to find it? "I asked a series of questions at once, but my uncle just smoked and didn't answer me.
"This." My uncle is starting to adjust my appetite again, and he's okay again.
"There is really no record of how you were reborn on this bamboo slip, but it only tells the route of Xu Fu's westward journey and some clues they have found. I think it may be that outsiders are afraid that they have found the secret of immortality, and the record here is not very detailed, but it is still very valuable. "My uncle's words undoubtedly poured cold water on me.
"Uncle, do you want to tell us where we're going to start at the first stop?" I feel like it's the right thing to do when I'm going.
"That's right, but some of the place names he recorded here are the ancient place names of the Qin State, or the place names of the early Zhou Dynasty, if we want to know where to go, we really need to decipher it. And although there is a route here, it is not very clear, it seems that every place is an encrypted code, and it is probably not easy to completely figure out the route of Xu Fu's westbound. ”
"And there is another thing, here are some things that Xu Fu dealt with along the way when he traveled west. For example, what ghosts were destroyed, what cases were handled, and what magic weapons were left in some places. "Magic weapons, my uncle has a smile on the corner of his mouth when he talks about magic weapons, and he seems to be very interested in those magic weapons.
Indeed, after all, Xu Fu is a figure of the same period as Wei Ran, and listening to Wei Ran, it seems that Xu Fu's magic attainments are not inferior to Xu Fu. If Xu Fu really left a lot of magic weapons along the way, then we have a few more chances of winning when facing Wei Ran. And the magic weapon is even more of a sought-after thing for a cultivator like my uncle.
"Uncle, you want Xu Fu's magic weapons, right, I see your saliva is going to flow out." The back of my head was suddenly attacked by my uncle at this time.
"As far as you know, don't say that Lao Tzu didn't tell you, if you dare to rob the baby with Lao Tzu this time, Lao Tzu will kill you." You still keep the magic weapon and use it, Lao Tzu has the power of thunder and lightning and a broken sword, so he doesn't need that kind of thing at all.
"Uncle, don't worry, everything is yours, as long as I can survive." My uncle smiled at me with satisfaction.
"Okay, I won't tease you, I'll tell you about this bamboo slip. It records the events between the time Qin Shi Huang began to send Xu Fu from Xianyang to the time Xu Fu sent Zhou Tong back to Xianyang to report to Qin Shi Huang. Although there are not many words here, there are also more than a dozen stories of westward travel, large and small. ”
And what happened here was basically deciphered by Xu Fu according to the westward route of King Zhou Mu left in the history books, which should be relatively accurate. And I guess that although Wei Ran didn't get the first half of the volume, after all, he is also a character who has lived for two thousand years, and he can also know what Xu Fu is doing on his westward journey. ”
"The first thing here is the first stop of Xu Fu's westward journey, which is an ancient city in Gansu in the early Zhou period. And here Xu Fu and they seem to have something happened, although it is not clearly recorded, but Xu Fu's team also suffered heavy losses, and Xu Fu also had to leave one of his magic weapons there. ”
"Uncle, let's go. But let's solve Wei Ran's problem first, but he doesn't seem to have come to us for trouble recently. ”
I'm a little curious that Wei Ran hasn't come to hunt us down recently.
"It's normal for him not to come, it is estimated that after he knows the route of Xu Fu's westward journey, he has already led people to the first ancient city of Xianzhou. Let's set off a little faster, otherwise Wei Ran arrived at that ancient city first and got the magic weapon, and it would be even more difficult to deal with in the future. ”
We packed up a bit and set off at once, but we still need some supplies now, otherwise we probably wouldn't have been able to get that far. After arriving at the nearest market, we had a full meal, and we didn't know how hard it was to travel west. We were at the dinner table, and my uncle suddenly asked for something for Xinze.
"Xinze, give me back the jade pendant that Uncle gave you last time." Xinze took out the jade pendant very obediently, although it was said to be a jade pendant, but I think it's just a white stone, and it is estimated that it can only be sold if it is pasted upside down on the street, and my uncle still regards it as a treasure.
"Uncle, it's just a broken stone, do you want to be a treasure?" My uncle gave me another blank look.
"You know a fart, this is a treasure left to me by my father, and it will be worth hundreds of millions if it is sold."
"Then what kind of name is this baby?" I asked curiously.
"Mingtang, I don't know what his name is, anyway, my dad said he got it by accident, but this thing is really powerful, and ordinary ghosts can't get close to him at all. But I look at this jade pendant as if it is a fragment of something, but I don't know what this thing is. "My uncle took his jade pendant and fiddled with it again.
"Uncle, how are we going to find that ancient city when we get to Gansu, we can't be like headless flies everywhere." I raised my own questions again.
"Can't you use your brains about this, Gansu is not a place where there are no people, you just need to find someone who understands and ask where there are often cultural relics unearthed from the Zhou Dynasty, can't you roughly know where is the dense area of the ruins of the early Zhou Dynasty? Knowing this general area, and then investigating those places where strange things often happen, you can basically find the exact location. ”
My uncle gave me another random batch, I really don't know where I provoked him, so angry I ate a few big bowls of rice. Well, I actually ate too much noodles the other day, and I had to eat something delicious to make up for it. After a full meal, my uncle went to buy out the bald Song again.
We headed west and soon came to the territory of Gansu. My uncle began to use Song Bald's skills to talk to local antiquities dealers about the unearthed cultural relics. It seems that my uncle should be able to have eyebrows soon.
