Tomb Raiders in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 95 Keeping the Ancient Cauldron
Zhang Faqiu was amused when he heard the words, and added: "Then you still want to hit my chest with a small hammer?"

After saying this, Zuo Xiaoqing jumped to the side of the corrupt weapon rack, stared at a gourd hammer, and then looked at Zhang Faqiu, with an evil smile on his face.

"But I didn't say anything!" Zhang Faqiu stood up, and was suddenly surprised to find that most of his injuries had healed, and he only felt slight pain in his chest and back.

The golden scales on the back also turned blue at this time.

"This thing is so magical!" Zhang Faqiu looked at the magic lamp in his hand, with a look of surprise in his eyes: "Is this thing really so magical?"

"I'm not joking. Remember, don't let old Taoist Zuo Ci see it. If he knows that you drank your things as water, he will fight you desperately!" Zuo Xiaoqing laughed mischievously.

But Zhang Faqiu didn't think it was some kind of miraculous medicine. The stench in his mouth was stronger than that of a dead body. There are not many people in this world who have the courage to eat this thing.

"They'll be fine!" Zhang Faqiu was a little worried when he saw the hundreds of soldiers around him fall limply after being glanced at by the savage.

There are some sayings that mountain spirits can suck people's souls, which is very terrifying. Once a person's soul is sucked away, he will be no different from a fool from now on. If you want to wake up this person, you must find the person who sucked the soul away. The mountain spirit that took his soul, beat the mountain spirit to death, and only then can the human soul be called back.

"Don't worry, this is the 'shock' in the spell, and they will wake up in a short time." Zuo Xiaoqing casually pointed to the ancient tripod that fell on the ground: "Take out Wang Mang's bones, he has What qualifications do you have to sit in there?"

Zhang Faqiu could sense that Zuo Xiaoqing didn't seem to like Wang Mang very much.

Responding casually, Zhang Faqiu found his Minghong knife, picked out Wang Mang's skeleton, and threw it on the ground.

After hundreds of years, the exquisite dragon robe has long been rotten, and when it was thrown on the ground, it had already changed color and turned into pieces.

"How did that savage get away? Could it be you showing off your supernatural power?" Zhang Faqiu had a guess in his heart, and at this moment he began to ask Zuo Xiaoqing directly.

Zuo Xiaoqing spread his hands: "Thinking too much, if I had this kind of ability, I would have suppressed old man Zuo long ago, so that old man Zuo wouldn't tell me to be taught by Taoism every day, which would annoy me to death."

But Zhang Faqiu was relentless: "It's just why I look at old man Zuo and I'm so afraid of you?"

"Nonsense, isn't your grandfather afraid if you make a fuss? I can cry for three days and three nights!" Zuo Xiaoqing said quite proudly, not taking it as a shame at all, but as an honor.

Zhang Faqiu laughed dryly: "I don't have a grandfather! When I was young, my dad... oh, it should be my dad who fostered me in an orphanage... No, there was no such thing as an orphanage at that time. So I was fostered by a big family. I didn't know where he went by himself. Until I was fifteen or sixteen years old, someone found me and said that my father had an accident and left me a fortune. I can't even recall what my father looked like."

Seeing the depressed expression on Zhang Faqiu's face, Zuo Xiaoqing suddenly smiled: "What's the matter, I'm not, I don't know what my parents look like, you see, I still won't live well!"

"Yes!" Zhang Faqiu nodded, supported the ancient tripod with both hands, and pushed it hard, and the ancient tripod immediately stood up steadily. Zuo Xiaoqing held the magic lamp Zhang Faqiu put on a stone and placed it on the ancient Ding front!
"Should we transport it away?" Zhang Faqiu hesitated for a moment. This thing is definitely valuable, but I don't know if anyone in the aristocratic family likes to collect this.

"What are you thinking about! This is an artifact, the artifact of the ancient emperor! Don't think about it, it will be beneficial for you to keep it!" Zuo Xiaoqing said solemnly.

"In my opinion, it's just a tripod!" Zhang Faqiu said indifferently.

"Oh?" Zuo Xiaoqing smiled slyly: "Then put your ear on the tripod wall and listen to see if there is any sound!"

Zhang Faqiu pursed his lips: "Could it be possible that this thing can still call Mai, and I can't drink a song by myself?"

As he spoke, he put his ear against the cauldron wall... A very grand voice suddenly appeared in Zhang Faqiu's mind!
Zhang Faqiu was startled, pushed away three or four steps, and looked at the cauldron wall in surprise.

The corner of Zuo Xiaoqing's mouth twitched slightly: "Do you understand now?"

"Then... what is that?" Zhang Faqiu asked in surprise.

"The sacrificial scene of ancient emperors offering sacrifices to the heavens has been preserved on this ancient tripod!" Zuo Xiaoqing said joyfully, "Now you should understand why a giant dragon will be born on this colorful mountain within a few decades, right? Because of this ancient tripod, it is a very remarkable thing!"

As Zuo Xiaoqing said, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he put his ears on the tripod wall very intoxicated, with a slight smile on his face.

It took a full three or four breaths before Zuo Xiaoqing removed his ears from the cauldron wall, his face flushed.

Before Zhang Faqiu could say anything, Zuo Xiaoqing clicked his tongue and said, "It's really a good thing. If old man Zuo sees it, he will definitely go crazy with joy!"

"You haven't said yet, how did that savage get away!" Zhang Faqiu kept asking.

"Come on, let me tell you!" Zuo Xiaoqing sat on a rock with his feet up, "When the savage held a broken sword and wanted to pierce your back, he saw the golden scales on your back and was killed." Frightened away, here—the big hole over there is the one that collapsed when the savage left."

Zhang Faqiu touched his back behind him, and the thing on his back was like a life-threatening talisman, reminding himself all the time that he should go and find the dragon spirit early.

Two years of life!
"However, this mountain must be strong. How could that savage hit it directly from inside? It's a bit of a myth!" Zhang Faqiu shook his head.

"How is it impossible?" Zuo Xiaoqing asked back: "We saw the information from the stone wall outside, so we should be able to get it. That savage is a Taoist priest who was laid out hundreds of years ago. He wants to use the ancient cauldron to become an immortal."

Zhang Faqiu thought that Zuo Xiaoqing told him that when he came in, in the eyes of those who practice Taoism, the ancient Emperor Xuanyuan stepped on the tripod to become an immortal. In the middle of the way.

Ordinary tripods definitely won't work, only the Nine Tripods made by the legendary Yu the Great can have this supernatural effect.

"That Taoist has Taoism to protect him, not to mention mountains, even mountains of knives and seas of fire, he can come and go freely, and let me remind you, that Taoist has guarded this tripod for hundreds of years, and he will never give up. , you don’t know how obsessed these people are in order to present themselves!” Zuo Xiaoqing said in a low tone.

Zhang Faqiu shuddered: "Then you mean that the savage will come back!"

"No, how can a person live for hundreds of years? It has been at least two or three hundred years since Wang Mang usurped the man!"

Zuo Xiaoqing said earnestly: "Although you are the inheritor of the funeral scriptures, the funeral scriptures you got are incomplete. If one day you complete the funeral scriptures, you will know that this world is in the hands of Taoists, and nothing is wrong. Impossible, nothing is impossible!"

"And...you should have heard of the Immortality Pill, right?" Zuo Xiaoqing chuckled, his eyes reflected a kind of green light that Zhang Faqiu had never seen before.

"I heard that during the time of the first emperor, there was a man named Xu Fu who went to sea to obtain the elixir of immortality for the first emperor, but it was..."

"After all, it's fake! Is it?" Although Zuo Xiaoqing said so, Zhang Faqiu could hear what she meant, which meant that this matter was true!
"Are you kidding me!" Zhang Faqiu came from a later generation, and he could see all kinds of information about Xu Fu very clearly. How could there be such a elixir of immortality?

When organisms develop and mature, don’t they all die in the end?
This is the law of nature and cannot be violated.

Zuo Xiaoqing looked old-fashioned, looked at Zhang Faqiu and said, "Young man, you are so naive, have you ever seen ancient trees that have lived for hundreds or thousands of years, and even some trees have grown from our world?" It has existed since its birth, probably hundreds of thousands of years, why can these trees survive instead of going through life, old age, sickness and death?"

"This..." Zhang Faqiu choked, feeling very strange in his heart. How did this little girl know that there were such trees in the world? The reason why Zhang Faqiu knew it was because he lived in later generations and saw the investigation results of many scientific researchers. Only then did I know that there are a group of trees in the world that have been alive since the birth of the earth.

Zuo Xiaoqing smiled slightly: "The reason why cultivators believe that they can gain longevity through cultivating the Tao is because they saw these strange trees, and it was these trees that gave them the greatest courage to pursue what they wanted in their hearts."

At this time, Zhang Faqiu saw the people lying on the ground, someone woke up, Zuo Xiaoqing immediately closed his mouth and stopped talking about this matter.

"Get ready, the savage will come back, and he will not give up unless he takes away this ancient tripod!" After Zuo Xiaoqing finished speaking, he saw the people lying on the ground wake up one after another, and walked to the In the messy pile of weapons on one side, I looked at this with great interest, and then looked at that.

"My lord!" Zhang Biao also woke up. He only felt his head was groggy, as if someone had knocked him from the back of his head with a sap.

"What about the savage?" Zhang Biao suddenly exclaimed, Zhang Faqiu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, this guy is really belated.

"Your lord, I showed my might and repelled the savage. You see, that hole is where the savage escaped!" Zhang Faqiu pointed to the collapsed mountain wall and said proudly.

Zuo Xiaoqing, who was looking at various weapons on the side, almost choked on his own saliva...
