Chapter 751 The Secret of Longevity
Mrs. Li took a look at Fan Jiannan, shook her head and said, "I really don't understand, everyone in your Fan family is extremely smart, but why are you so stubborn in doing things and don't listen to advice at all. Well, I Let me tell you. There is an old legend that the person who gets the true shape map of the Five Sacred Mountains can take control of the world and become the leader of the Central Plains art world. But the real value of the true shape map of the Five Sacred Mountains never lies in those superficial legends. It lies in the fact that it opens a The key to a great secret."

"What is the great secret?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"Do you know what everyone has been searching for for thousands of years?" Madam Li said slowly.

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "Wealth, power or other messes, who knows?"

"What if what I said is more difficult to obtain than wealth, power, or even anything in the world?" Madam Li said slowly, "There was once a great man who obtained all the wealth, fame, and power available in the world, established The largest empire in history. But he still failed to achieve one thing, although he paid countless efforts, money, and even countless lives. This man is called Yingzheng, the first emperor Yingzheng. You know what he said What is the ultimate pursuit?"

"Changsheng!" Fan Jiannan's face changed slightly.Many people know the story of Qin Shihuang seeking longevity.But Changsheng, does this illusory thing really exist?Nobody knows!Because no one ever got it.

"Yes, this huge secret is the secret of longevity. Are you surprised or unbelievable?" Madam Li said calmly.

Fan Jiannan shook his head and said, "It's not unbelievable, but absurd! If you want me to believe this, you might as well make up a more reasonable reason."

"I could have a better reason, but I told you the reason, so you should know that I didn't intend to lie to you." Madam Li said indifferently, "Believe me, when I first found out about this, I'm more surprised than you. As magicians, we understand the limits of human beings better than ordinary people, so we can't imagine such a thing in this world."

Fan Jiannan still shook his head, "I don't believe in these things. Sorcerers can indeed do some things that are difficult for ordinary people to understand, but there are objective laws behind these things. It is what Lao Tzu calls Tao. What is Tao, Tao is nature. Natural Laws are irreversible. Birth, old age, sickness and death, this is the law of nature. Anything that violates this law is impossible.”

Madam Li sighed, "I knew you would react like this. So, do you still want to hear me continue?"

Fan Jiannan was silent for a while, but still made a gesture of please.

"The International Yishu Council was established in the late Qing Dynasty and developed in the late nineteenth century. In the 21st century, it can be regarded as the largest in the art world in terms of scale and influence on the entire world. Even European witches with a longer history And because we are based overseas, we have more opportunities to learn about the arts of other countries in the world. But as this understanding deepens, there are too many doubts. For example, the The real origin is primitive witchcraft, so where is the origin of witchcraft? The council has done a lot of research work for this." Madam Li said indifferently, "A thorough research has been conducted on the ancient civilizations of all countries in the world."

"As a result, you discovered that the Five Sacred Sacred Figures contain the secret of immortality?" Fan Jiannan mocked. "It's still really fresh."

Mrs. Li said indifferently, "Chinese Taoism regards immortality as a symbol of immortality. In the Qin Dynasty, there was an alchemist Xu Fu who sought the elixir for Qin Shihuang, and went out to sea to find the immortals on the immortal mountains of Penglai and Yingzhou. He disappeared. In Taoism, there are special The school of alchemy and medicine is also aimed at immortality. There are immortal immortals in ancient Sumerian mythology, Western Celtic mythology, Norse mythology, and Irish folklore.”

"But these are just baseless legends." Fan Jiannan shrugged.

"But the truth of history is often hidden in the legends. There is no reason for it." Madam Li added, "The council's efforts for nearly a hundred years have finally achieved substantial progress. But no one thought that this is just It’s a start. Twelve years ago, 12-year-old clay tablets were unearthed in Sumer, Western Asia, full of cuneiform characters. The deciphered translation shocked the entire council.”

"What is that?" Fan Jiannan frowned.

"The above fully narrates the journey of the ancient magicians in pursuit of longevity. Even at that time, they had already proposed the true shape map of the five mountains. Of course, the original wording was not like this, but refers to the stones representing the five mountains in the east. This mystery until It was recently confirmed by another incident." Madam Li looked at Fan Jiannan and said.

"What kind of thing?" Fan Jiannan asked doubtfully.

"The True Shape Map of the Five Sacred Mountains was circulated during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It is said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty obtained it from the Queen Mother of the West. Our recent discovery directly points out this point. The history of the True Shape Map of the Five Sacred Mountains may be longer than Taoism itself. It should be from the West Asia was spread to the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty in China. During the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu was expelled and connected to the Western Regions. It was the foundation for this kind of transmission.” Madam Li said slowly, “The above are only the side confirmation of the documents, and we have obtained Substantial evidence has been provided to prove that the claim of longevity is indeed credible."

"That's impossible!" Fan Jiannan immediately shook his head and said, "What kind of evidence can prove that people can really live forever, and what kind of evidence can the secret of immortality be contained in the Five Sacred Figures?"

"We found the skeleton of a person. After modern medical examination, this person has survived for more than 800 years, and the bones are still compact, not like an old man at all. According to further investigation, it is found that this person is likely to be a Chinese Taoist legend Among them is the long-lived Guan Keng." Madam Li said calmly.

"Keng Keng." Fan Jiannan frowned.

"Chinese people are used to calling him Pengzu, which is a symbol of longevity in legends. This person is a descendant of the ancient emperor Zhuanxu, and his mother is the younger sister of the leader of Guifang." Madam Li said calmly, "You want to know what Guifang means? Where? A small country in the northwest of China, it is said that it is still west of the Xiongnu."

"From West Asia?" Fan Jiannan's face changed slightly.

"You are finally enlightened. So this person probably knows some secrets of ancient West Asia, which led to his incredible lifespan." Madam Li said slowly.

"But even if this is the case, his longevity cannot be linked with the five sacred mountains. Maybe he is just a special case, the only immortal in the history of human evolution." Fan Jiannan said a little confused.

"I haven't finished my words yet. Along with this man's remains were found some bronze vessels, some of which were engraved with a few symbols in a very obscure manner, and these symbols have a striking correlation with the cuneiform writing unearthed in Sumer in Western Asia. The translation is - the secret of longevity lies in the stones representing the five high mountains. We believe that refers to the true shape map of the five mountains. You should know that at that time, the true shape map of the five mountains had not yet been introduced to China. Madam Li said with a smile.

"Is this all you have?" Fan Jiannan frowned. "Some fragmented legends, a rotten bone, a few mudstone slabs and some bronzes?"

"Of course it's more than that. There are also a large number of ancient documents from various countries and periods. Many hidden clues eventually point to the Five Sacred Mountains in China. Even in the era when the Five Sacred Mountains were not yet called the Five Sacred Mountains, there was already such a saying. The Five Sacred Mountains originated from the worship of mountains and rivers in ancient China, and they were associated with the king’s sacrifice to the mountain gods. The word “Five Sacred Mountains” first appeared in “Zhou Li”: offering sacrifices to the country, the five sacrifices, and the five mountains with blood. “Book of Rites” records: the emperor Worshiping the famous mountains and rivers in the world, the five mountains regard the Sangong, and the Sidu regard the princes. The princes worship the famous mountains and rivers in their places. The meanings contained in these five mountains are also intriguing since ancient times. Therefore, we believe that the true shape of the five mountains is to solve the mystery of longevity. key."

Fan Jiannan looked at Mrs. Li and said, "How can I prove that what you said is true?"

"I don't want to prove it. Think about it for yourself, why should I lie to you? And for Mr. Du's sake, I will warn you again. As soon as I leave this door, you'd better tell me what you heard Forget everything about it. Otherwise, you will be in big trouble." Madam Li looked at Fan Jiannan and said.

"Changsheng, Changsheng? It's because of this kind of thing that the entire board of directors is in a panic. Not only did you come to Hong Kong in person, but the first director also disappeared." Fan Jiannan couldn't help but groaned, "I still I really hope it's just a joke."

"This is not a joke, but the goal that the magicians of all ages have been pursuing." Madam Li said seriously, "Although there are various legends about it all over the world, no one has ever been so close to it like the ancient Chinese magicians This goal. It may be just one step away from immortality to eternal life."

Fan Jiannan just felt that he couldn't accept these statements, but he also saw that what Mrs. Li said was probably true.Because if she wants to lie to herself, she can come up with a better and easier reason to believe.Instead of explaining all this with such unacceptable rhetoric.

A moment later, Liang Yansheng came, holding a bag in his hand, put it on the coffee table, and then bowed and retreated behind Madam Li. "Here is 100 million." Madam Li pushed the bag in front of Fan Jiannan, and said slowly, "I have fulfilled all the conditions I promised you. Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise, Mr. Fan."
