The Japanese army, which prides itself on being invincible in the world, has nothing to do in the face of this small mud pit. In the end, they had to give in, and no longer sent people to stand guard at the edge of the pit, but only cordoned off the surrounding area. But after that, there were still a few Japanese soldiers, as if they were under some kind of magic, and jumped into the pit one after another.

The female translator was very curious about the incident recorded in the archives, because she thought it was so incredible that it was so strange that it was not real, but the official archives showed that such a thing did happen.

When she told her uncle Ono about this incident in the file, Ono was also very shocked, although he was very knowledgeable, and he was also an expert in biomedicine, and he was very scientific, but Ono could not explain the various wonderful phenomena of this strange pit.

Therefore, the female translator came to our area, in addition to looking for the whereabouts of the manuscript in Inoue, she also wanted to focus on investigating the strange pit.

But according to the records in the archives, the female translator felt that it would be very dangerous if she didn't know anything about this strange pit and ventured to investigate.

Therefore, before she came to China, she first went to a scholar who graduated from Waseda University, this scholar is specialized in Chinese history and culture, is over 90 years old, is an authoritative expert in the field of Japanese sinology, and knows all aspects of China very well.

Although the old scholar is over 90 years old, he is still deaf and blind, quick in thinking, and clear-headed. After listening to the female translator's description of the strange pit, the old scholar was taken aback.

Because it was too unexpected for him, because he didn't expect that this strange pit really existed.

It turned out that the old scholar had seen this strange pit in a medical book, and that medical book was said to have been transmitted to Japan from China during the Tang Dynasty.

According to that medical book, as early as the Qin Dynasty, in order to be immortal, Qin Shi Huang found many monks to refine pills for him.

One of the most famous Taoist priests, said to be Xu Fu's senior brother, was the highest in cultivation and the most valued by Qin Shi Huang, at that time, this person was already over 120 years old, but his hair was still jet black and not a single tooth had fallen.

At first, Qin Shi Huang did not believe in the age of this person, and after asking about the person's hometown, he sent someone to investigate secretly, because the person's hometown was far away from Xianyang, so the person who was sent did not come back for two or three months.

The people who came back from the investigation said that the exact age of this person could not be ascertained, but when they asked several local elderly people in their seventies and eighties, they all said that when they were children, they knew about this Taoist priest, and at that time, the appearance of this person looked similar to now, that is, more than 70 years have passed, and this person's appearance has basically not changed.

In this way, Qin Shi Huang was convinced of this person's ability, and treated him with great courtesy.

This person was also very hardworking, he chose a place called "Yin Fat Mountain" and began to refine the pill for Qin Shi Huang. His alchemy method is very special, completely different from that of ordinary alchemists.

The "Yin Fat Mountain" is hundreds of miles in circumference, and in order to choose a place for alchemy, this person has been investigating the mountain for more than a month, and finally, he finally chose a location.

This place is very strange - this place is an acre of square stone land, smooth and incredible, as if someone has polished it, the Taoist priest asked people to take a stone ball, put it on this smooth stone surface, there will be no slightest rolling, which shows that this smooth stone ground is absolutely horizontal, without the slightest inclination.

It is incredible that there is such a smooth and flat stone field in the middle of the mountain.

What's even more incredible is that in this smooth stone flat ground, the Taoist priest actually wants people to dig a pit. This task is too difficult, but this Taoist priest is the first emperor's popular person, so no one dares to contradict him.

Local officials, as best they could, found hundreds of local stonemasons and began to chisel the stone floor. These hundreds of people rotated day and night, regardless of the scorching heat and winter, and kept digging down.

But the stone here is indeed too hard, and the stonemasons have to dig down extremely hard. It took two full years to dig more than half a person's depth, and in the course of two years, hundreds of stonemasons died of exhaustion and disease.

Two years later, on a full moon night, the Taoist priest inspected the excavation and told the stonemasons that the boulder would be chiseled through this night, so he ordered all the stonemasons to go into battle.

When they heard that the days of this region were coming to an end, the stonemasons were also very excited, because they had not been able to return home once for two whole years, and all the time except for eating and sleeping was spent on chiseling stones.

What made them even more unbearable was that when they ate every meal, they were forced to drink a decoction that was difficult to swallow, and if they didn't drink it, they were dragged out and beaten to death.

In the past two years, because of drinking this decoction for a long time, every stonemason has a special smell, which smells very good, is a faint fragrance, and even the feces and urine they pull out also have this fragrance.

But after drinking this decoction, they will be weak, no appetite, even if they are very hungry, but it is difficult to eat, for a long time, they are skinny, skin and bones, and every bone joint in the body hurts.

Therefore, this kind of life is really too painful and torturous for the stonemasons. They all dreamed of going home early, so how could they not be excited when they heard the Taoist priest say that it would be completed tonight? One by one, they used all their strength, shouted the trumpet, and chiseled desperately.

In the early hours of the morning, the stonemasons suddenly felt that the stone, which was so hard that it suddenly became brittle and soft, and a piece could fall off at the slightest touch. In this way, the stonemasons felt that what the Taoist priest said was right, and that they were really about to chisel through, so they became even more excited, and shouted louder.

At this moment, only a pop was heard, and the stone, which had been chiseled for two years, was chiseled through at this moment, but what these stonemasons did not expect was that all of them, before they could make a shout, all of them fell in, and none of them were spared.

In this way, these poor stonemasons all fell into the pit after they had been hewn through, and there was no one alive or dead. On the second day, suddenly a lot of mud gushed out of this stone pit, and a mud pit was formed.

This mud pit is very strange, if anything falls on it, it will sink in, not even a leaf, let alone a person.

And the Taoist priest dug out some of the mud in these pits, and used these mud to cultivate some mushrooms, and then used the juice of these mushrooms to boil crystallization as a raw material for refining the pill, but in the end, for some reason, the pill was still not finally refined, and some people said that although the pill was refined, Qin Shi Huang was dead at that time, anyway, Qin Shi Huang did not eat this pill.

But since then, this pit has been there, and it has existed for more than 2,000 years, and it has not become bigger, but it has not become smaller, and it has not disappeared.

Almost every year, for some reason, as long as someone passes by nearby and smells the smell of the pit, they can't help but follow the smell to come and see, and as soon as they approach this strange pit, they will jump into the pit like a demon, and then they will sink in an instant and disappear without a trace.

Later, I don't know from which dynasty, the official also discovered this strange pit, at first wanted to fill it with soil, but those who filled the soil, many people also jumped into the pit and disappeared, because the smell is too hard to resist, although it can temporarily cover the mouth and nose, but after a long time, it will still be fascinated by the smell, and unconsciously jump into the pit.

Later, there was really no way, so around this pit, a lot of trees were carried, and this strange pit was wrapped in the woods, so that the smell was much weaker, and there were many fewer people jumping into the pit every year.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a famous doctor, after knowing this strange pit, he risked his life to come to this pit to observe many times, according to his observation, this pit is the place where the qi veins of the mountain converge.

This qi vein of the mountain is a special yin qi, which is extremely strong, and when it encounters a positive thing, it will be quickly adsorbed into it, and the mud in the pit is also very different from the ordinary mud, this kind of mud is actually a kind of decoction, and the medicinal properties are extremely strong, and the smell emitted can make people confused and hallucinate, and they can't help but want to jump into the pit.

This famous doctor of the Tang Dynasty specially concocted a medicine, and then the medicine he concocted would be sprinkled into this pit every once in a while. In this way, it lasted for three years, and the smell emitted from this pit turned into a faint smell of rotten eggs, which was much weaker than the original extremely tempting smell.

In this way, even if people are near the pit, they will not be tempted by the smell to jump into it.

But even if you smell rotten eggs for a long time, you will still hallucinate and you will likely be tempted to jump into the pit. Especially those who are sensitive to odors are more likely to have this condition.

After listening to this Japanese sinologist, the female translator was very shocked, she couldn't imagine that there was such a legendary story around this pit.

This sinologist's understanding of the strange pit is too important for the female translator.

The female translator didn't hide it from the sinologists, saying that she was going to China and wanted to visit the strange pit on the spot, but she didn't want to wear a gas mask, so how could she ensure her safety and not be confused by the smell of rotten eggs and jump into the pit?

The Japanese sinologist smiled slightly, saying that this problem was easy to solve, and he prescribed a few doses of medicine to the female translator, and asked the female translator to drink a pack every time she went to that strange pit, and then there was no problem.

After the female translator came back from the sinologists, she also told her uncle Ono what she had heard about the strange pit, and after listening to it, Ono sighed and was excited, and told the female translator that when she went to the strange pit, she must find a way to bring back a little mud from the pit, and he would do research purposes.
