"The so-called fairy mountain is nothing but the ignorance of the world, and the fear of the unknown."
Qingzhu looked indifferent, ignoring the expressions of the few of us, and said lightly: "The people of Xuanmen pursue the unknown things in this world. No matter what sensational statements are, we should not be too surprised. The so-called weirdness and horror are just the claws and teeth through the window paper. If you really pull off the fig leaf, it's just so-so."
Perhaps it was influenced by her calmness, or maybe her words really made sense, I gradually calmed down.
Come to think of it, before entering this line, the corpse ghosts and demons sounded scary, who would have thought that they really existed, and really came to this step, in fact, it was just like that.
After a moment of hesitation, I asked, "Does this fairy mountain really exist?"
"Where is the fairy mountain? Do you think there are really gods? The Tianmeng was once interested in this and found one of them under the sea. They found that the so-called fairy mountain was just an ancient relic!!"
Qingzhu sneered, "This world has existed for too long. Humans are just a very small part of it. Too many things have been submerged in the long river of time and are almost invisible now. But more than two thousand years ago, these traces had not been completely erased by time, leaving many clues, but now they are considered myths.
For example, the 36 overseas countries.
If it is really just a fantasy, why are so many classics mentioned?
Shanhaijing, Huainanzi, Records of the Three Kingdoms, Book of the Later Han, Tuzan, and Records of Natural History...
Some of them are even official history!!
You have also seen the Yumin and the Undead, and even fought against them with blood. Do you still want to say that these things do not exist?
Isn't this just covering your ears and stealing the bell, deceiving yourself?"
The meaning of this remark is too obvious.
I couldn't help but think of the immortal people. Their homeland is an island. Because of the natural disaster of volcanic eruption, they had to move their entire clan to the land of China, so I immediately asked: "Do you mean that the so-called overseas fairy mountains are actually the ruins of the former thirty-six overseas countries?"
Qingzhu nodded heavily: "Not only the so-called fairy mountains, we also suspect that many unknown dangerous places on the sea are related to the former thirty-six overseas countries, for example, the legendary Atlantis, and the Bermuda Triangle, etc...."
I asked again: "There are many fairy mountains, which one did Guo Xun take Yang Guifei's body to?!"
Qingzhu thought for a while and said: "Penglai!"
Guo Xun returned from the sea in a small boat, and the place where he landed was in the current Shandong location. To be more precise, he floated from the Bohai Sea.
But the vast ocean, a small boat crossing the sea, no matter how you look at it, is mysterious, which shocked the local fishermen.
It can be said that Guo Xun became famous in the capital because of this incident. Otherwise, how could anyone want to see Emperor Xuanzong of Tang?
In the Tang Dynasty, people knew very little about the sea. Guo Xun came from the sea, so the emperor was naturally very interested. During the banquet, he once asked him where he came from the sea? What did he see?
He said that he learned skills in the fairy mountain overseas, but he didn't know the name of the fairy mountain, nor the name of his master. He had no way of guessing the thoughts of the immortals, but when he returned, he passed a special sea area, where the water color was different and clearly divided. The dragon kings of the two seas were fighting there, killing each other so fiercely that the sea water turned red.
"This legend still exists today."
Qingzhu said, "The so-called different colors of sea water should refer to the boundary between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea. The waters of the Yellow Sea are dark blue, while the waters of the Bohai Sea are turbid. The junction of the two seas presents a clear distinction. Coincidentally, there is still a legend of the Dragon King fighting at Laotie Mountain at the junction of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea.
The legendary Penglai Mountain is exactly at the junction of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea!"
I leaned back in my chair, closed my eyes and digested all this information carefully, and couldn't help but sighed, "It's simply... incredible!"
"It's a bit incredible!"
Qingzhu said, "The dragon veins once formed a cave in the Tang Dynasty. This was originally a speculation by some Feng Shui masters and has not been confirmed. The Earth Spirit Pearl has never been found. Who would have known that there are so many twists and turns in the middle? However, at least it is a ray of hope. To be honest, I can trace this information, and I think I should really thank your enemy."
I was surprised and said, "My enemy?"
"Water Lord!"
Qingzhu said something shocking: "Well, there is also your classmate, Xing Wei! They are behind this matter!!"
This time I really couldn't sit still, and almost jumped up: "Tell me in detail!"
Qingzhu told me that this has to start from my escape from Daxing'anling.
At that time, although I escaped from Heixiazigou, the ghost mother also escaped.
The Tianmeng is an existence that defends order. Qingzhu believes that if the ghost mother enters the world, the harm will be too great. So after parting ways with me, she did not really let the ghost mother go, but tracked her all the way.
The ghost mother is very smart. She actually noticed something and had been deliberately avoiding her.
Until she tracked into Shaanxi, the ghost mother disappeared, leaving a pool of water stains where she disappeared, and the water stains would breed a group of insects when they saw blood!
"This is Fushui!!"
I said, "Qiongshan Fushui, it's a veiled innuendo, the Water Prince carries Fushui on him, he has been to my house, persecuted my father, left Fushui behind, it should be the Water Prince who captured the ghost mother!"
But then again, what exactly does this Water Prince want to do? !
Attacking the Yinren Inn, releasing the monsters inside, and now capturing the ghost mother, this series of weird actions... is really disturbing! !
Qingzhu nodded and said, "I felt that something was fishy at the time, so I followed the dripping water and found that he was often active in a small town on the Qinling Mountains, especially in a library, where there was the most water! I checked the surveillance and found that he had transformed into a handsome young man, often going in and out of that library. Your classmate Xing Wei also appeared several times. Unfortunately, he was too cautious, and the clues were cut off when we chased him there. Later, he deliberately controlled me, and I never really found him.
I was also curious about his motives, so I spent a few days looking for the books he had read in that library. I found that he had been looking for books related to Yang Guifei and the Anshi Rebellion. In addition, he had also looked up information about Guo Ba, and even all the information related to the overseas fairy mountains.
Combining the information in these materials, plus some records in the Tianmeng, I gradually figured out what he was looking for...
I came here to talk to you about this, but you ended up like this. It's good that these things happened at the same time. It can be said that God will not let you go!"
Ghost mother...
I couldn't help but think of the girl who talked to me every day. In fact, she was also a poor person...
I sighed and asked, "Could it be that they also want to find the Earth Spirit Pearl? Or..."
"Their purpose is not clear yet!"
Qingzhu said, "I don't think it's likely to find the Earth Spirit Pearl. The Earth Spirit Pearl is formed by the dragon veins. It can mobilize the power of the earth veins. It is a good thing, but ordinary people can't use it at all. The female ghost next to you has played with the Earth Spirit Pearl for thousands of years. Has it ever been useful? Many people covet the Earth Spirit Pearl, but in the end, they all came to nothing!
The only use of them looking for the Earth Spirit Pearl should be to know the inheritance of the ceremonial officer. Doing so will cut off your retreat. In fact, if they hadn't reminded us, we wouldn't have known that there was an Earth Spirit Pearl in the world. So, this possibility is not great. It's a big deal to worry about you, a ceremonial officer who hasn't grown up yet. This..."
Qingzhu seemed to be afraid of hurting my self-esteem, so he didn't say it too bluntly. He changed the subject and said, "There is an ancient book in the Tianmeng, which was written by a eunuch in the Tang Palace. It records such a thing. Yang Guifei herself has body odor. Tang Xuanzong not only doesn't hate this smell, but likes it very much. However, Yang Guifei doesn't like this smell, so she tried her best to cover it up. At that time, Guo Xun presented the Earth Spirit Pearl and castrated himself. He had become Yang Guifei's close confidant. After learning about this, he immediately approached Yang Guifei and said that he had a medicine that could curb body odor after taking it.
Yang Guifei knew that he had outstanding experience and had learned magic from immortals, so she naturally trusted him very much and asked him to offer medicine.
Guo Xun offered a fragrant muscle pill. It is hard to say what the ingredients of this thing are, but it contains musk, which affects women's pregnancy. Yang Guifei had no offspring in her life, which was related to this medicine!
Think carefully about what Guo Xun did. He offered pearls and medicine, and did not hesitate to hurt himself to get close to Yang Guifei. In the end, it was most likely her who stole Yang Guifei's body. Isn't this weird? Like..."
Lao Bai continued: "It's like he is using a living person to cultivate something. He targeted Yang Guifei because Yang Guifei herself is very special?"
"Yes, that's it! !"
Qingzhu said: "But what exactly was cultivated and where it was used, I don't know. I think it is very likely that the Water Prince knew about this. His goal is not the Earth Spirit Pearl, but Yang Guifei. In other words, it is the thing cultivated by Guo Xun! !
It is gathering fierce creatures everywhere, which may be its real purpose! ! "
"When will we set off?"
Brother Yaozi was very direct. After listening to the general situation, he said directly: "Although it is full of uncertainty, it is better to have a goal than not to have one!"
"This matter is very serious and needs preparation."
Qingzhu said lightly: "Not only do we have to wait for Zhang Daoxuan, the Tianmeng will also send two people here this time. From now on, they will stay here permanently and act with you. I have already notified them and they are on their way. As soon as they arrive, they can set off. Although the incident between Lord Shui and Xing Wei was caused by you, the strange behavior of these two has made the Tianmeng uneasy, and they must be investigated. "
What do you mean?
Someone from the Heavenly Alliance came and stayed here permanently?
Is this a helper or a supervisor?
Brother Yaozi and I looked at each other. It was impossible to say that we were happy, but we couldn't make the decision on this matter. Qingzhu's attitude was clear. She just notified us. I guess... this matter must have been approved by my master.
What else can we say? No matter how unhappy we are, we can only suppress it.
Qingzhu had said what she had to say and stood up to leave. I was moved and subconsciously raised my hand to call her.
As a result, she stopped after walking a few steps and suddenly looked back at me: "I know what you want to ask, about that person... If you really want to know, then follow me!"
