Chapter 59: Lu Sheng
Let's talk about Yingzheng's side, after Qin pacified the Six Kingdoms, Yingzheng began to plan to seek a way to live forever. It just so happened that there was a scholar Xu Fu who wrote that there were three immortal mountains overseas, the names were 'Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou', which were the places where the gods lived, and if they visited, they could get the elixir of immortality.
Xu Fu's performance was just at the right time, and Ying Zheng had a way to live forever. So Yingzheng sent Xu Fu to visit Xianshan instead of himself, and according to what Xu Fu said, he designed and built a big ship, called Mirage. Now that the mirage is about to be completed, Ying Zheng thought to himself that when he asked Xu Fu to visit Xianshan and get the elixir of life, he asked him to bring back the Gai Nie page with me.
But at this time, Xu Fu said that he needed to bring three thousand boys and girls with him, and after going to the fairy mountain and visiting the immortals, he exchanged the three thousand boys and girls for the elixir in the hands of the immortals. Ying Zheng also agreed, but the three thousand boys and girls said that it would take a lot of time to find, although they were going to be immortals on the fairy mountain, but Xu Fu said that the three thousand boys and girls must be personally selected by him, and they should choose children with amazing bones and natural fairy bones, not ordinary people's mortals.
Ying Zheng also agreed to Xu Fu's request, but after a long time, Ying Zheng was also a little impatient, but sailing to find immortals was a big deal, so Ying Zheng suppressed the impatience in his heart and let Xu Fu arrange it.
And on the side of Pingluan Valley, Yingzheng is also full of expectations, because if he really finds Pingluan Valley, it will be a shortcut to Xianshan, even if it is just once. If Pingluan Valley is discovered by the empire once, I don't know how much time and energy it will save. Yingzheng can also achieve the goal of immortality earlier.
But the situation in Pingluan Valley is not optimistic, Ying Zheng is looking forward to the news of Pingluan Valley every day, but for many days, Ying Zheng got the news that there is no cave in the entire Yuntai Mountain!
Ying Zheng couldn't help but have a will on this news, could it really be that there is a providence in the dark? Ying Zheng couldn't help but begin to doubt that his life might be just a dream of cultivating immortals, Ying Zheng was disheartened, Li Si happened to be by Ying Zheng's side at the moment, seeing that Ying Zheng couldn't lift his spirits after hearing the news, he knew that Ying Zheng was upset about something, Li Si felt that his performance opportunity had come again, and he hurriedly persuaded Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, the minister once heard that there was a party in the market, and the world called him 'Lu Sheng', and I heard that he was familiar with the affairs of Pingluan Valley. Li Sijin said.
Ying Zheng, who was originally like a deflated balloon, immediately wanted to sit up like a tumbler after hearing Li Si's words, and Ying Zheng's spirit came suddenly: "Quickly announce that this Lu Sheng has entered the hall." ”
An order was issued, and in an instant, the entire palace echoed in the Xianyang Palace one by one, layer by layer, and the sound spread farther and farther, until it reached the gate of the Xianyang Palace, and an unknown little eunuch immediately ran in the market after receiving the command, looking for the 'Lu Sheng' in the mouth of the Ying Zheng. Listening all the way, the unknown little eunuch finally found Lu Sheng in front of a food stall on the side of the road, only to see Lu Sheng sitting on a small horse, holding a freshly roasted big waist in one hand, and holding a glass of cold beer in the other hand is sucking, his body is still idle, and he is shaking his legs.
The unknown little eunuch rubbed his eyes, and then looked carefully in the direction of Lu Sheng, with a Tsing Yi Dao hat, triangular eyes, and a mole at the corner of his mouth. The little eunuch repeatedly checked Lu Sheng's characteristics several times, and then nodded, feeling that he didn't recognize the wrong person, but he didn't dare to step forward, because Lu Sheng was not born with a good appearance, the little eunuch was a little scared, he pulled a person passing by him, and asked the person: "That's right! Passers-by nodded affirmatively.
"Why is he like that?" the little eunuch still seemed to be a little incredulous.
"Yes, that's what he did. The passer-by still nodded firmly, and said: "You don't know, this Lu Sheng is a half-immortal body, nicknamed a living immortal, I estimate that other people's half-immortal bodies are like this." ”
"Oh my God, is this still a half-immortal body?" said the little eunuch in surprise, and he looked back at the passer-by who had just spoken to him, who had disappeared into the crowd.
There is no way, the emperor's order cannot be violated, just now because of looking for Lu Sheng, the time has been delayed too much, if this is grinding, if the time is delayed, if Your Majesty blames it, you will let this little eunuch not be able to eat and walk around.
After thinking about it, the little eunuch was even more afraid of Yingzheng, he walked up to Lu Sheng lightly, and said respectfully: "Your Excellency is the famous Fang Shi Lu Sheng?"
Lu Sheng's triangular eyes squinted, looked up and down at the little eunuch who was talking to him in front of him, his mouth pouted, he felt that he was not convinced, he didn't look at the little eunuch squarely, he was still saying arrogantly: "What are you looking for me? Lu Sheng pursed his lips and continued to eat the roasted kidneys in his hands.
The gentleman laughed. The little eunuch saw that he had seen a lot of such high-spirited people, and naturally he was familiar with the temperament of this kind of person, so he smiled and said: "Your Majesty has announced that you have entered the palace to face the saint." ”
When Lu Sheng heard that His Majesty had announced that he had entered the palace to face the saint, he was so frightened that the roasted waist in his hand fell to the ground, and the cold beer also fell to the ground, and even Lu Sheng himself almost didn't fall off the horse because of the shock. Lu Sheng couldn't believe what the little eunuch said, he repeated it again: "You talk about His Majesty's Xuanxuan today," Lu Sheng's excited words were incomplete, and his tongue was mixed with garlic.
Because the time to come out was really too long, the little eunuch was a little anxious, he quickly interrupted Lu Sheng's words, and said a little impatiently: "That's right, it was Your Majesty who announced that you would enter the palace to face the saint, sir, come with me, if the hour is too late, Your Majesty will blame it, and neither of us can afford it." ”
"Okay, good, go fast, go fast. Lu Sheng wiped the oil from his mouth, followed closely behind the little eunuch, and the two entered the Xianyang Palace one after the other.
With a slender voice shouted: "Lu Sheng enters the hall!"
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Quasi!"
Then a man in a green coat and hat, with triangular eyes and a mole at the corner of his mouth, walked up to the hall with a majestic look.
"Poor Lu Sheng, knock to see Your Majesty. Lu Sheng bowed skillfully, and looked as if he often met with dignitaries.
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked up and down, and then smiled: "It is worthy of being a half-immortal body, and it is really extraordinary." ”
Lu Sheng smiled humbly, and then said without humility or arrogance: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
"Lu Sheng, I heard that you are proficient in the knack of opening Pingluan Valley, can you do me a favor?" Ying Zheng didn't talk much nonsense, and went straight to the topic, he asked straight to the point.
"I don't dare to say that I am helping Your Majesty, the poor road is just a grass people, and being able to serve Your Majesty is a blessing that the grass people cultivated in their previous lives. Lu Sheng said, on the surface, he belittled himself, but secretly slapped Yingzheng's ass.
"Then can you open Pingluan Valley?" Ying Zheng listened to Lu Sheng's words, and answered the question, Ying Zheng was a little anxious, and he asked bluntly.
"Yes. Lu Sheng nodded and said, but his triangular eyes squinted, and he said as if he had a plan: "However, if you want to open Pingluan Valley, it still depends on Your Majesty himself." ”
"How do you say this?" Ying Zheng asked in confusion when he heard Lu Sheng's words.
"If Your Majesty wants to open Pingluan Valley, you must first communicate with the gods and reach the realm of the unity of heaven and man. Lu Sheng said.
Ying Zheng was a little puzzled, and he asked, "Aren't you just going to help me open Pingluan Valley?"
After hearing Yingzheng's words, Lu Sheng smiled humbly, and then said, "Eh, Your Majesty, this is not true. The poor road opens the Pingluan Valley, and the valley mouth can only be seen by the poor road, and others can't see it. ”
"So whoever practices this skill can enter Pingluan Valley?" asked Ying Zheng.
"Exactly. Lu Sheng said.
Ying Zheng was a little reluctant, he was also upset when he cultivated immortals over the years, and he was still dealing with Lu Sheng: "Then I follow you closely, you can see Pingluan Valley, I follow you, when you enter Pingluan Valley, won't you also enter with you?"
Lu Sheng shook his head, revealing an unfathomable smile, and said, "It won't work, Your Majesty, if you don't practice, you can only see me walking into the mountain wall alone, and Your Majesty, you can't enter." ”
"That's right. Ying Zheng nodded thoughtfully and said, "Then you say, I will do what you say." ”
"Hahaha" Lu Sheng saw Ying Zheng nodding in agreement, so he smiled heartily: "If you want to communicate with the gods and reach the realm of the unity of heaven and man, if this matter is wanted by ordinary people, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky." ”
As soon as Ying Zheng heard Lu Sheng's words, he thought that it was more difficult for ordinary people to communicate with God and achieve the unity of heaven and man than to ascend to the sky, so although he was the emperor, it was estimated that this matter would not be easy, Ying Zheng thought so, and everything he was thinking about appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but lock his eyebrows and look a little pensive.
Lu Sheng saw Ying Zheng groaning, and knew that Ying Zheng was beginning to move his mind, and after he saw it, he smiled again: "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, Poor Dao only said that it is more difficult for ordinary people to want to be like this than to ascend to the sky, but Your Majesty, you are the true dragon emperor, how can you compare with ordinary people." ”
Ying Zheng was a little unhappy when he heard Lu Sheng's words, and he retorted: "Just now, you always compared me with the common people, and no one said anything except you. ”
Lu Sheng was speechless for a while, and then Lu Sheng eased the awkward atmosphere with a smile, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty, don't care about these details. ”
"Hurry up and get down to business!" Ying Zheng said impatiently, Ying Zheng thought that this Lu Sheng would talk nonsense in the main hall again, and he would drive him out. Ying Zheng thought so, and a look of displeasure appeared on his face again.
