Qin Renhuang just became an immortal, and you told me this is the prehistoric time

Chapter 146 The ancient Yunmeng Lake, the distinction between immortals and gods, wild gods in the countryside, and Qu Yuan’s invitation!
In the Nine Provinces, in the understanding of mortals, anyone who can fly in the clouds is a fairy or god.

But in reality, the real immortals and gods are separate.

Among them, immortals are beings who have achieved success in spiritual practice. For example, after a practitioner breaks through to the realm of celestial immortals, there is no limit on his lifespan and he can become an immortal.

But it is very weak, so weak that it can be easily killed by a bolt of lightning. It can only carry a tiny amount of magic power and cast some small spells.

After that, the practitioners continue to practice and break through to the realm of true immortality, the realm of mysterious immortality, etc., then they can master the methods of riding on clouds and mist, going to heaven and earth, and become immortal gods in the eyes of mortals.

However, no matter how practitioners practice and continue to break through the realm, they will never be able to become gods.

Because gods are ordained, not conferred through practice.

As for who bestowed the title...it was naturally the Heavenly Court.

Therefore, the Heavenly Court, which is supposed to hold the power to confer titles on gods, has already appointed a master for the God of Water in the 800-li Dongting Lake without any action.

It is conceivable that it is impossible for the Heavenly Court to have no reaction at all.

It's like in the Qin Dynasty, when Ying Xuan was still sitting on the throne of the emperor, and suddenly a man emerged and gathered an army of hundreds of thousands, occupied one or several county towns, and proclaimed himself king.

As long as Ying Xuan is not crazy, he will not turn a blind eye and allow the other party to become bigger.

But now, Qu Yuan had neither the title bestowed by Heaven nor the title of God of Dongting Lake, which really made Ying Xuan feel strange.

"My Shuijun residence is not far ahead. If Emperor Qin II doesn't mind, you can go and sit for a while."

Qu Yuan seemed to realize the profound meaning of Ying Xuan's words. After a moment of hesitation, he took the initiative to make an invitation.

As the Lord of Water in the 800-li Dongting Lake, he naturally has his own Lord of Water Mansion.

At the same time, as the Lord of Water, he should not leave the Lord of Water's residence for too long, otherwise it might shake the water veins of the 800-mile Dongting Lake.

"Of course you can. I'm also very curious about how the people in this 800-mile Dongting Lake live under the rule of Shui Jun." Ying Xuan nodded slightly, with a strange look in his eyes.

He was indeed curious about Qu Yuan and wanted to have more contact with this immortal poet.

"But what about this giant turtle?"

Ying Xuan turned his gaze and looked into the lake. The giant turtle, which had just calmed down after being comforted by Qu Yuan, seemed to have sensed that they were about to leave, and became slightly agitated again.

Seeing this, Wang Ben and others became nervous again.

The truth was that they were right by the lake at the moment, too close to the giant turtle. If the latter suddenly attacked... with the strength of the Golden Immortal Realm demon, it would be enough to cause them considerable casualties.

"If the Second Emperor Qin is interested, he can take this big guy away. After all, this is the turtle of your Great Qin."

Upon hearing this, Qu Yuan looked back, as if he had unintentionally revealed the secret.

The turtle of Daqin! ?
Ying Xuan was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and immediately realized what was happening. He asked suspiciously, "Which monarch of my Great Qin left this place here?"

Today, the Qin Empire has unified the Nine Provinces. In theory, the Nine Provinces and the Thirty-six Counties all belong to the Qin Empire.

But what Qu Yuan said was obviously not this meaning. Instead, he meant that this giant turtle was left in this lake by a monarch of the Qin Dynasty.

This also explains why there is still the aura of the Qin Dynasty on the giant turtle.

"Exactly."

Qu Yuan nodded, looked at Ying Xuan's face that reminded him of the past, and said with some emotion: "You are very similar to the First Emperor. It reminds me of the conversations with him in the past."

"This turtle was left here by the First Emperor to be raised, and he brought it back to Xianyang City after his eastern tour."

"But, I didn't expect..."

Qu Yuan did not say anything else, but just shook his head. Obviously, he also knew the news of Qin Shi Huang's death, so he naturally knew that the First Emperor would not bring the giant tortoise back to Xianyang City.

The First Emperor’s turtle!
Ying Xuan's heart trembled, and he looked at the giant turtle again, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

But what moved him was not the origin of the giant turtle, but some information revealed in Qu Yuan's words...

"Have you had contact with the First Emperor? During his eastern tour?" Ying Xuan stared at Qu Yuan and asked.

"Of course." Qu Yuan nodded.

After the words fell, Ying Xuan was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Sui Jun, lead the way."

"please."

Qu Yuan put one hand behind his back, made a gesture of invitation, and then walked along the lake to lead the way.

"Get going, follow me."

Ying Xuan turned and walked towards the Emperor's chariot. Halfway along the way, he suddenly remembered something. He paused, glanced at the huge turtle in the lake, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Take this big guy with you."

After saying this, Ying Xuan boarded the imperial chariot, and the imperial carriage set off for Qu Yuan's residence of the Water God.

Wang Ben and others looked at each other, looking at the huge turtle in the lake, and were a little troubled for a moment.

How do I carry this big guy?

……

The 800-li Dongting Lake, also known as the Yunmengze in ancient times, is the birthplace of an ancient human tribe. Many things have happened in this marshy land.

Among them, the most famous is that when Dongting Lake was still called Yunmengze, a great war broke out between Xuanyuan, the last emperor of the human race, and Chiyou, the great wizard of the wizard race.

In the end, Emperor Xuanyuan won a great victory and established his advantage over Chiyou.

Since ancient times, Yunmengze has undergone various changes and finally became the current 800-li Dongting Lake.

However, due to the huge water system of Dongting Lake, there are many aquatic creatures hiding in the lake, which will come ashore and cause trouble from time to time, causing great suffering to the people living nearby.

But after the appearance of Qu Yuan, the Water God, the water creatures in Dongting Lake became much more obedient.

"It seems that Qu Yuan is a pretty good water lord. He can actually manage the 800-li Dongting Lake... It's not easy!"

An official in the patrol carriage could not help but sigh after hearing these stories.

When Qu Yuan jumped into the river, Jiuzhou was still in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the countries were constantly in conflict, so few people knew about Qu Yuan.

And even if they knew... these officials who came from the Qin Dynasty would not have a good impression of Qu Yuan.

Because when Qu Yuan was still alive, he advocated resisting the Qin Dynasty and even led troops to cause considerable casualties to the Qin Dynasty.

“So what if the governance is good?”

However, another official who was accompanying the emperor shook his head. Looking at the people living around Dongting Lake along the way, who looked peaceful and obviously lived a good life, he shook his head and said in a deep voice: "This Qu Yuan has neither the deity appointed by the heaven nor the recognition of our Great Qin..."

"In the 800-li Dongting Lake, he wantonly seized the merits of incense and accepted the sacrifices and blessings of the people calmly. He is no different from a wild god, and is extremely presumptuous!"

"This time... he should be held accountable for his crime!"

“We may even have to dismantle his golden statue and select a new Water Lord to rule over this 800-li Dongting Lake!”
