From seeing it

Chapter 155 Longevity is like a curse

He was a little surprised: "These are hagfish, an ancient fish species that can only live in seawater. It seems that this stream is connected to the ocean."

The stream was very shallow. After Sun Tao took a searchlight to illuminate it, he confirmed that there were no other dangerous creatures except for some tiny hagfish, so everyone walked over the stream one after another.

Passing through the stream, there is a slope in front of you, and everyone goes up the slope.

An hour later, everyone finally climbed to the top of the Black Mountain.

The top of the mountain is open and flat, and there are ruins formed by the collapse of a pile of wooden buildings made of trees, and the ground is full of rotting trees.

With the previous discovery, everyone was not surprised to see a similar building ruin on the top of the mountain again. After confirming that there was no danger around them, everyone began to search and excavate, hoping to find valuable clues in the ruins.

The ruins here are much smaller than the previous ones. After spending about half an hour, they thoroughly searched through them. All valuable things were piled up together. Except for some broken items and utensils, there were also a few According to Li Zhibao's judgment, the broken piece of stone engraved with Qin Wen belonged to the Qin Dynasty.

Li Zhibao, Hu Shengzhe, and Wang Lei wore gloves and carefully inspected the unearthed objects from the Qin Dynasty. Xiao Ling watched from the side, thinking that although most of these objects were damaged, any one taken out would be a cultural relic. Antiques are probably worth a lot, but everyone's interest is obviously not here.

Li Zhibao looked at the Qin inscriptions engraved on the stone, and found that they were all simple introductions, related to Xu Fu's going to sea, and these records were also recorded in the history books, which is not unusual.

In the end, Xiao Ling and Yu Tingting found a buried crock under a pile of rotten wood. The crock was well preserved and sealed.

Feeling that there should be something inside, Xiao Ling got a little excited and hurriedly moved it in front of Li Zhibao.

"Old Li, there seems to be something here, take a look."

"Well, the mouth of this jar is sealed so that no air can enter. It can be used to preserve some important things. As long as the seal is not damaged, it can even be stored for thousands of years."

Li Zhibao motioned everyone to back off while talking, after all, no one knew what was sealed in this crock pot, if it was something dangerous, it would be troublesome.

After everyone backed away, Sun Tao ordered a team member to find a wooden stick and knock on the seal with it from a distance.

This is a seal formed by firing special clay. When the wooden stick is struck hard, cracks slowly appear in the seal, and a small hole is finally knocked out.

After the hole appeared, everyone waited quietly for a while and approached slowly after making sure that there was no danger of poisonous gas or poisonous insects inside.

Sun Tao took the stick from the team member, and continued to knock the hole in the seal until he found that it was full of bamboo slips.

Because it was placed in an earthen jar sealed with mud, the bamboo slips are still intact even after thousands of years.

Sun Tao took out the bamboo slips and handed them to Li Zhibao.

Others also gathered around.

Li Zhibao carefully unfolded the bamboo slips, which were densely written with Qin Wen.

"This bamboo slip was sealed in an earthen jar, and it was preserved so carefully. What important information should be recorded on it." Hu Shengzhe looked at the unfolded bamboo slip with a solemn expression.

Xiao Ling, Yu Tingting and Wang Lei all surrounded them.

Li Zhibao looked down intently, and after a while, he raised his head and said: "This bamboo slip records the process of Xu Fu going out to sea to find the fairy mountain, just like the diaries written by our modern people. If these are true, then According to the above, the bamboo slips were written by Xu Fu himself."

Xiao Ling frowned slightly, and said: "This bamboo slip was written by Xu Fu himself back then. Did he write about the process of going to sea to visit immortals? He kept it so carefully. Could it be that there are some important information recorded on it?"

Li Zhibao shook his head and said, "I haven't seen any important information yet..."

While talking, he continued to look down, and suddenly gave a soft moan, stretched out his finger and counted the bamboo and Qin inscriptions among them, and said: "It says on it that they 'climbed the pot, cut wood and lived in order to seek immortality', look In the past, the boys and girls led by Xu Fu really lived here for a while. Penglai was also called Penghu in ancient times. Back then, Xu Fu brought thousands of boys and girls and they really arrived here by boat. Penglai, I hope to find a fairy fate."

Everyone listened quietly, seeing that Li Zhibao had finished reading the bamboo slips very quickly, and then he showed a thoughtful look on his face, and slowly rolled up the bamboo slips again.

Xiao Ling said: "Old Li, this Xu Fu brought thousands of people to Montenegro, and lived here for a while while cutting wood. After that, what happened to them, or where did they go? If they died here , there should always be bones left."

Seeing the pensive look on Li Zhibao's face, Xiao Ling probably had a discovery.

Li Zhibao took a breath slowly, and said: "This bamboo slip records that after they felled trees and lived here, they would meet the fate of immortals and hope for longevity..."

Everyone was startled when they heard this.

Did Xu Fu really meet an immortal in this Penglai Mountain back then and seek longevity?

"How is this possible?" Hu Shengzhe's first reaction was that this was absolutely nonsense. Throughout the ages, has anyone ever heard of an immortal person?

Wang Lei tapped the pipe in his hand and said, "Mr. Li, is there a detailed record of the process?"

Li Zhibao shook his head and said: "What I can't understand is the last paragraph of this bamboo slip. The last paragraph says that you will meet a fairy fate, and you will live forever. Blood nourishes, vermiculite can be decomposed, and the records will be broken later.”

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. If this bamboo slip was really written by Xu Fu himself, what kind of incomprehensible horror did he encounter back then, and what did longevity like a curse express?

"What horrible thing did Xu Fu encounter here back then? What is the explanation for his saying that longevity is like a curse? As for those who are destined to be nourished by blood and can be solved by vermiculite, this passage is even more incomprehensible .” Hu Shengzhe frowned.

Xiao Ling said: "Since he has carefully sealed up the bamboo slip here, maybe he just wanted to leave it for future generations to read. There may be important clues hidden in it, but unfortunately we can't refer to it for the time being."

Pang Yan took a camera to take a picture of the contents of the bamboo slips, and said, "Could the horror he's talking about be the devil coral polyp or the giant tortoise monster?"

Yu Tingting shook her head and said: "I don't think so. The horrible things he said should have happened after he climbed to the top of the mountain, felled trees and lived there, and it must be related to longevity, otherwise he wouldn't add the sentence that longevity is like a curse. It's what he wanted to say."
