The years when I was Captain Jin

Chapter 432 Xu Fu's Secret

"What, Xu Fu!"

Hearing the word Xu Fu, the pores of my whole body relaxed with excitement.

Xu Fu is so famous in Chinese history. It was he who recommended himself to Qin Shihuang, saying that he could get the elixir of life, which made Qin Shihuang obsessed with the way of immortals.

It's just strange to say that ever since Xu Fu took his fleet and five hundred boys and girls out to sea to search for medicine, they just disappeared from the world and never came back, which also triggered a series of bold conjectures in later generations.

Some people say that Xu Fu's fleet encountered storms and waves at sea, and the whole army was wiped out.

Some people also said that Xu Fu did not find the elixir of longevity. He did not dare to return to China because he was afraid of Qin Shihuang's punishment. He simply took [-] virgins to take root in Yingzhou and gradually formed Japan. Therefore, Xu Fu is the ancestor of the Japanese.

However, this is not the case. In the tomb of Li Si, we have already discovered a secret. In fact, Xu Fu really found the elixir of longevity, and came back before Qin Shihuang died of illness!Unfortunately, he was detained by Prime Minister Li Si. Li Si used all kinds of torture to ask Xu Fu about the whereabouts of the longevity medicine, but failed. In the end, Xu Fu was tortured to death. The remaining three hundred boys and girls were also made into experimental products by Li Si. It is the yin and yang boy we met in the ancient tomb.

Thinking of this, I nodded: "Qin Shihuang was extremely arrogant all his life, and regarded human life as worthless. There were only two people he respected most in his life, one was the prime minister Li Si, and the other was the alchemist Xu Fu, so the people who were able to walk so close to Qin Shihuang , the possibility of Xu Fu is very high."

Uncle Ming seemed to think the same way, and said with a slight smile, "That's right, this person should be Xu Fu!"

"I see. Xu Fu in the mural is supposed to tell Qin Shihuang that he can go to Pengtai Xiandao to find the elixir of life, right? Although the fat man doesn't read much, he still knows this history." The fat man stretched his neck and said.

"No." Uncle Ming immediately retorted, "No!"

"What's wrong?"

"The time is wrong!" Uncle Ming continued to explain: "According to the order of the murals, this is not Xu Fu's sea map, but the time when Xu Fu first met Qin Shihuang. It's terminally ill."

After hearing Uncle Ming's words, I subconsciously turned my attention to the next mural.

My intuition tells me that there is a heavy history waiting for me to reveal it!

In the next mural, Xu Fu actually drove away all the guards guarding the hall with a whisk, then slowly took out a box and handed it to Qin Shihuang mysteriously.

When Qin Shihuang opened the box, he was stunned.

The mural also specially enhanced Qin Shihuang's facial expressions at that time, the expressions were shock, fear, and a hint of greed.

"Look." Seeing Qin Shihuang's exaggerated expression, the fat man hurriedly said: "There must be something weird in this broken box! Qin Shihuang is an emperor through the ages, a hero who swept the world, what have you never seen? How could he be caught by the things in the box?" Scared, so fucking weird."

In fact, even if the fat man didn't say anything, we saw the abnormality of the box.

Then he urged Uncle Ming to continue to translate.

"Hurry up, see if there is anything in the box at the back?" the fat man said urgently.

But what was disappointing was that Uncle Ming looked down for a while, shook his head and said, "This box is never mentioned in the murals behind..."

Seeing that Uncle Ming couldn't see through the details of the box, we all fell into silence for a while.

It took a long time before Wang Yuanchao broke the silence: "By the way, do you think this box is..."

Although Wang Yuanchao didn't finish a sentence, my mind was like an electric shock, and it became clear in an instant: "You suspect that this box is the eight-fold demon letter!"

"What eightfold demon letter?" Uncle Ming asked a little unclear about the truth: "Is it the iron box that the fourth girl took from Dayu's tomb?"

Seeing that Uncle Ming had already guessed all kinds of things, I scolded myself in my heart, how come I like talking too much like a fat man, and now I'm afraid I can't hide it anymore.But I don't know how to tell Uncle Ming?Is it a direct statement or a cover-up.

Just when I was hesitating, the fourth girl who had been staring at the mercury pond in a daze said, "Yes, it's the iron box."

I didn't expect Miss Four to be so open, so I ignored Uncle Ming and asked Miss Four, "Are you sure?"

"It can't be wrong." The fourth girl did not look away, but said with a solemn expression: "It is it! Although the projection is not very clear, the details on the box cannot be faked. Look at the divine bird on the side of the box Patterns, this kind of pattern has never been carved by anyone since ancient times."

"That is to say, that pattern is unique?" Uncle Ming stared at the fourth girl.

"Ah."

"Then the iron box in Dayu's tomb is really related to longevity?" Uncle Ming was excited this time.

"Yes." At this point, the fourth girl had no intention of hiding it from Uncle Ming, and said it without reservation.

Although we don't have to explain everything to Uncle Ming, but for the sake of this, a cunning old fox like Uncle Ming would be a fool if he still doesn't understand, not to mention some truths that Uncle Ming has personally experienced of.

Sure enough, after a short thought, Uncle Ming nodded as if he had realized something, and then looked at us: "So, the longevity we are looking for is actually contained in this box? The only thing missing now is the key to open the box .”

"Almost!" I said lightly, letting Uncle Ming guess for himself.

On the one hand, he wanted to disturb Uncle Ming's thinking, and on the other hand, he was unwilling to let Uncle Ming know everything.

The fat man saw that the three of us had finished talking about the eight-layer demon letter, so he interrupted our conversation: "Hey, I tell you three, don't bother with guessing riddles, what is in that box, you have to open it." I know. Now that the box appears in the murals, we should read all the murals, maybe we can find the place where the key is hidden..."

Seeing that the fat man finally said something human, I quickly followed Uncle Ming to look at the mural below, trying to find the trace of the box again.

But what is disappointing is that the next mural is exactly as Uncle Ming said, there is no box again, and another scene is replaced.

Seeing that I was discouraged, Uncle Ming smiled and said that although the clue to the iron box was broken, the story that was discovered next should be related to the iron box.

"Oh?" I frowned and looked at the next picture carefully.

What the next mural depicts is no longer the tall and majestic palace, but the tens of thousands of mu of fertile land of the common people. It is spring at this time, and the people who have just survived the war are plowing the land.However, at this moment, a blazing fire appeared in the sky. The fire pierced the sky like a meteor, and then turned all the fields into ashes. However, the cattle died tragically, the people were scorched, and there was not even a single grass in a radius of a hundred miles. .

Even if someone reported this matter to the government, the county magistrate went to check the scene in person, but found a deep pit in the middle of the field that had been burnt to black charcoal, and a huge ball was buried in the deep pit.

Where has the county magistrate seen this scene before?Immediately shocked, he reported it to Prime Minister Li Si.

Li Si rushed to the place where the incident happened overnight, but he couldn't find what the ball was after searching all the history books. In desperation, he heard that the alchemist Xu Fu knew many strange things, so he sent someone to invite Xu Fu...

After Xu Fu checked the ball in the deep pit, he had a long talk with Li Si that night. He didn't know what he said to Li Si, but Li Si's expression was extremely frightened.

At dawn the next day, Li Si took out the Tiger Talisman, mobilized tens of thousands of Qin troops, and slaughtered all the people and living creatures in a radius of a hundred miles!
