From the county seat all the way to the west, I didn't go far, and the road became a gravel road, with potholes, and Wang Li was a little bumpy in the car.

If there is anything to explore the secrets, Wang Li may not have that kind of thought, he is just very curious, why this Zhaling Lake in Qinghai is related to Lop Nur.

And he rushed to Maduo County, more because he wanted to take a trip to the plateau in the real sense, to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the plateau alone, and to understand life.

Maduo County is the first county at the source of the Yellow River, coupled with his desire to travel and the magical records in Peng Jiamu's notes, Wang Licai made up his mind to take a trip to the plateau at the beginning of the summer vacation.

On the way, the driver told Wang Li that Zhaling was behind the Oroling, and if you want to go to Zhaling Lake, you must first go to the Goring, Wang Li thought about it, and decided to stop by to see the Oroling and then to Zhaling, and then turn back after getting off the car in Zhaling.

He negotiated with the bearded driver to charter a day's car, so that the Uyghur uncle dispelled the worry of staying and waiting and wasting time.

Although a lot of money was spent, it is located in the middle of nowhere, and Zhaling Lake is far away from the county seat, so it is worth spending more money for the sake of safety.

On the way, except for the engineering vehicles that build the road, there are almost no tourists in sight, the sky is blue, the dwarf, the vast grassland and the continuous snow-capped mountains stretch out into the distance at once, which is very magnificent.

As the journey deepened, there was gradually a river, the river surface was wide, and the river water was clear and blue.

Not long after, Wang Li saw a stone on the side of the road, with a few big characters on it, and the driver said to him: "Here is the Ngoring Lake, the Ngoling Lake is very big, and when you bypass the Ngoling Lake and pass through the canyon, Zhaling Lake is at the source." ”

The Ngoring Lake was really quite large, Wang Li didn't know how long the car had been circulating, and only when he entered a wide canyon did he cheer up and asked, "Master, are you almost there?"

The driver shook his head and said, "No, it's still early, this canyon is about more than 20 kilometers, and it will only be there at the end." ”

When he finally arrived at Zhaling, Wang Li was very tired after a bumpy journey, and it was already afternoon, so he said to the driver and got out of the car with his backpack and walked.

The driver told him to just walk around the neighborhood and not go far. Wang Li dealt with it casually and didn't take it seriously.

When you get off the bus, you can really feel the magnificent beauty of Zhaling Lake, which is different from what you see in the car, when you really touch the air here and feel the wind blowing here, the scenery in front of you becomes three-dimensional.

The water color of Zhaling Lake is clear and shiny, the south side of the lake is white, and the north side is turquoise, because the south side is the main stream line of the Yellow River, and it flows out of the Ngoling Lake that Wang Li has just passed, so it is called the Yellow River.

The only thing that was uncomfortable was the weather, Wang Li covered his eyebrows with his hands, squinted at the sun, and muttered, "It's too hot." ”

It didn't take long for Wang Li to be sweating profusely. Removing the collar of his windbreaker, Wang Li wandered around.

He looked up at the top of the mountain in the distance, and said in his heart, "This should be a bull's head monument." This is the landmark of the source of the Yellow River, I have to see it. ”

Without going back, and forgetting the driver's instructions, Wang Li walked up the mountain road and wanted to look at Zhaling Lake at the top of the mountain. But as the altitude continues to rise, the temperature cools down sharply.

Wang Li's body had some altitude sickness, his heartbeat began to accelerate, and his breathing was not smooth, Wang Li quickly stopped, wanting to go back but was paralyzed and weak, so he had to sit on the side of the road.

But after a while, he felt a splitting headache, he smiled bitterly and supported his head with his hands, gently massaged, and said in his heart: "I won't explain it here...... It's over, what am I doing?"

"No, it's not worth dying here. Wang Wei regretted it, "Be calm, exhale, calm down......"

Wang Li calmed down his disordered heart and wanted to adjust his breathing, but the situation became more and more serious.

Soon his face began to turn purple, the things in front of him gradually blurred, his breathing became heavier and heavier, his consciousness floated a little, and he closed his eyes in despair, recalling all the past in his mind.

Just when he was about to faint and his consciousness escaped into darkness, a loud chirp penetrated Wang Li's mind, making his confused soul instantly clear. He opened his bloodshot eyes, and saw a large, flaming, blood-colored bird in the shape of a phoenix, flying towards the sun.

Wang Li raised his hand with difficulty and muttered, "Am I dead?"

He tried to grasp something, but suddenly his eyes went black and he finally fainted.

......

"Oh, why am I here, don't I want to be guilty...... Huh?"

Wang Li woke up in a daze, shook his head that was a little faint, and saw that the light and shadow around him were very weak and slightly dark, and he wondered in his heart: "This ...... Where is this?"

Only when his eyes have adjusted to his surroundings can he see his situation clearly. He hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his backpack, found that the mobile phone did not have any signal, shook the phone in annoyance, and sighed lightly.

Undeterred, he turned on the flash of his phone and looked around him, getting a general idea of his surroundings.

This is a square platform paved with blue bricks, in the east, west, south direction are surrounded by a low brick wall, about half a height is short, the platform is about ten meters long, about five meters wide, there is a road in the north, leading to a faintly visible blue hall in the distance, it looks mysterious and simple, and does not make people have a gloomy feeling.

The entire blue brick platform is spotless, and the masonry is flowing with luster, which can calm Wang Li's heart after looking at it for a long time.

Wang Li stood up, looked at the hall in the distance, and found a huge dark stone tablet on the left, standing there solemnly.

Wang Li stepped forward, but saw that it was bare, and there was no text on the tablet, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.

"Where is this? I remember I fainted from lack of oxygen while climbing Niutou Mountain, how did I get here...... Oh, that phoenix!"

Wang Li suddenly thought of the big bird like the legendary phoenix he saw before he fell unconscious, and he was a little confused: "No, how can there be a phoenix, it should be that I was delirious and hallucinated at the time......"

Just as Wang Li was thinking carefully, the black light between his eyebrows flashed, and the monument in front of him began to bloom with golden brilliance.

Wang Li retreated again and again, but did not notice the black light on his forehead.

I saw that there were golden light words on the stele constantly flickering and floating, fantastic and abnormal, Wang Li looked at it dumbfounded, standing motionless in front of the stele. It didn't take long for the stele to fall silent again, as if nothing had happened.

Wang Li slowly stepped forward and was surprised to find that the stone tablet was full of engraved words at this time, and there seemed to be a dazzling golden brilliance circulating in the indentation, which was very simple and mysterious.

"It's ...... It's a bit like the physique of Lishu, but why is there a radical of the seal character? It's strange...... It's like a hodgepodge of fonts. Wang Li was puzzled: "I won't go to someone's tomb......

At this time, he suddenly remembered the strange novels "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "Notes on Tomb Robbery", and suddenly wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh here, but his mood was relaxed.

"Anyway, let's see what is written on it first. ”

At this time, Wang Li's learning came in handy, Wang Li studied history, and he had a certain interest and attainment in calligraphy. Although he did not dare to say that his research on calligraphy was ancient and modern, he had already entered the house, although the inscription was a little condescending, but it could still be overcome.

In order to save electricity, Wang Li turned off the flashlight of his mobile phone, and there was some darkness around him, so that he could see things clearly after his eyes got used to it.

Wang Li looked at the stele carefully, and read while reading the words: "The emperor of my palace is from Guanghan Palace...... Uh, no, it's not a palace character, it should be...... It is a Xuanzi, 'Emperor Xuan set up this boundary monument from the Guanghan Palace through the sea of stars to cut off Kyushu and set up this boundary monument......'"

This Xuanzi is very similar to the palace character, if it weren't for the palace character that appeared later, Wang Li would not have noticed the difference between the two characters.

"Emperor Xuan, is it an emperor? There are very few people called Emperor Xuan in history, Guanghan Palace...... What is this? Chang'e's Guanghan Palace?" Wang Li couldn't laugh or cry, and couldn't understand it, so he had to continue watching.

It took a long time for Wang Li to understand. The general meaning of the inscription is that in order to avoid disasters and find the true life, this person named Emperor Xuan severed the connection between Guanghan Palace and Xingzhu Sea and Kyushu, and sank Guanghan Palace to the bottom of the sea and closed it forever.

"This Emperor Xuan should be the ancestor here, because of war or something, the people of the clan are forbidden to contact the Central Plains. ”

Wang Xuanzhong guessed, turned his head to look at the cyan hall in the distance, and muttered to himself: "Then, this should be the Guanghan Palace." ”
