Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 262 Xu Fu goes to sea (two chapters in one)

Although the first emperor believed in the old man seven or eight points, he still had some doubts.

"I don't know why the old man came here?" Zhao Zheng asked suspiciously.

"Shanren came here for the sake of the common people." Xu Shi said with some compassion.

When Xu Shi said this, Ying Zheng was even more confused.

"What do you mean by the mountain man?"

"The world is fortunate to rely on the real person to rule the world and avoid the suffering of war, but people will eventually be born, old, sick and die.

Although the real person has a long way of light in this world, he is still a mortal body. Once the real person returns to his place and leaves the world, the old man is afraid that the world will return to the chaotic world, so he comes out of the mountain. I implore the real person not to abandon me. Mountain! "

As Xu Shi spoke, tears flowed out, staining his beard, and he knelt down to Emperor Shi Huang with affection, kowtowing his head and didn't lift it up.

Everyone in the hall understood what the old man said.

It was nothing more than praising the first emperor's achievements in unifying the six countries, and then worried that the world would be in chaos again after the death of the first emperor, so he asked the emperor not to "return to heaven" and stay in the world.

"Bold and lunatic, how dare you speak nonsense, the attendants on the left and right quickly drag this nonsense person down!" This time it was Zhao Ying, the fifth doctor who spoke, and this old man named Xu Shi not only mentioned the death of the first emperor , and also predicted that the world would be in chaos after the death of the first emperor, it was courting death.

Therefore, Zhao Ying guessed that Emperor Shihuang must be extremely angry at this moment, so he opened his mouth to reprimand in advance.

However, as soon as Zhao Ying said the words, Ying Zheng, who was sitting at the top, said in a cold tone: "It's not your turn to make decisions for me here."

Then his tone suddenly changed and he asked Xu Shi: "I can't bear to abandon thousands of people, but I don't know how to deal with it. There is a strange way for the mountain people to keep me in this world forever."

Ying Zheng naturally understood Xu Shi's words. Although some taboo things were mentioned in it, Ying Zheng paid more attention to Xu Shi's request to stay in the country forever!
What is Yongzhen Jiangshan, only immortality can Yongzhen Jiangshan.In addition, Xu Shi said before that he has been living in seclusion in Langya Mountain for 20 years, maybe he really has the magic medicine that can make him live forever.

A little ban on language is really nothing in front of his own immortality.In Ying Zheng's mind, being unscrupulous about what he thinks of and what he says is exactly in line with the impression of such a hermit.

Moreover, Xu Shi cleverly begged the first emperor not to leave his people in a begging tone, which made Ying Zheng less suspicious.

"There is no magic medicine for old age, but it can be used by a real person to stay in the world." According to ordinary people's thinking, after you have made so much effort to meet the emperor and talked so much, the next step is to offer medicine.

However, Xu Shi replied directly that I don't have any medicine either.

With Xu Shi's answer, Emperor Shi Huang's face immediately became gloomy and cold, and the atmosphere in the entire hall suddenly became tense.

"Could it be that the old man came here to make fun of me!" Ying Zheng said with a grim expression.

No one could tell that Emperor Shi Huang was on the verge of eruption at this moment. If this Xu Shi could not answer well, I am afraid that this big head would be separated from his own neck.

"Although this old man doesn't have the medicine of immortality, he knows where to seek it." Facing the extremely tense atmosphere in the hall, Xu Shi didn't feel nervous at all, and still said slowly:

"There are three fairy islands above the sea, Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou. Before returning to Langya, the old man crossed the sea to obtain elixir for King Xuan of Qi, and was fortunate to visit the three fairy islands to pay respects to the immortals.

However, what the immortals said is that the medicine for longevity, Piqiang, should not be taken lightly by ordinary people, so the success fell short.

A real person is a true immortal who descended into the world. He originally belonged to the same group as the immortal. If he voluntarily stayed in the world, the real immortal would surely be able to bestow the medicine of immortality. "

In this hall, the first emperor can still talk freely, and Ziying has to admire the professionalism and psychological quality of these pre-Qin gods.

If he hadn't been familiar with history and knew that Xu Shi would never return, he might have believed it under the temptation of these stories he made up and the temptation of immortality.

However, it seemed that Emperor Shi Huang was very interested in this, and he believed Xu Shi's words ninety percent.

"Has Governor Qi heard of this?" Ying Zheng turned to Qi Shi, the prefect of Langya County, and asked.

"I report to the emperor, the rumors of the three fairy mountains of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou have been spread in Qi for a long time, and the surrounding fishermen have seen the appearance of courtyards and pavilions from afar when they were fishing, but the smoke is so faint that it is hard to find it." Qi Qi said. the city replied.

What he said were actually rumors that had been circulated in Qidi for a long time. Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou had been mentioned by the old people when he was young, but he had never heard of anyone who could find them.

"Hmph, how can ordinary people see real immortals." Xu Shi snorted coldly, and said with some disdain: "If everyone can visit the immortal island and everyone can see the real immortals, wouldn't the immortals be polluted by the mundane air? , abandoned the island a long time ago.”

After hearing Qi Shi's explanation, the last bit of doubt in Ying Zheng's mind was dispelled.

Immediately asked with great interest: "I don't know what the scene is on that fairy island?"

"The three fairy islands are shrouded in mist all day long, but those who have attained the Tao can break through the mist and enter.

The three islands are divided into three sides, and there are four seasons invincible flowers on the corners of each other, evergreen trees all the year round, dragons, phoenixes and unicorns play in the four wilds, and the flowing mountain springs are full of fine nectar, which can be drunk with spiritual power.

There is a mountain in each of the three islands, which is the residence of immortals, and the four seasons on it are like spring and nothing can invade.

There is a tree on Mount Penglai called Duoshou, which can prolong life for thousands of years if it bears a fruit.

There is a flower on Fangzhang Mountain, named Fanghua, whose dew can last for thousands of years.

There is a grass on Yingzhou Mountain, which is called "No End", and it has no beginning, no end, no disease, no disaster, no birth and no death.

If the real person is willing, although the old man is decadent, he can cross the sea again for the real person to obtain the elixir! "

What Xu Shi said was righteous, if he didn't know the truth, he would think that the old man was really thinking of the first emperor, and he wanted to go to the sea to obtain the elixir regardless of life and death.

Just like today's Emperor Shihuang has been completely fooled by the fairyland described by Xu Fu at this moment.

But Ziying did know that this Xu Shi was really the number one fool in the Qin State, so what he said probably didn't have any truth at all.

"If I can see the scenery of this holy place, I will have no regrets!" After listening to Xu Shi's narration, the First Emperor sighed quite intentionally.

"If a real person wants to, he can naturally watch it. The old man can lead the way for a real person and return to the fairy mountain." Xu Shi continued: "But the real person belongs to the genus of the fairy, and once he returns to the fairy mountain and returns to his place, I'm afraid he won't be able to return to the dust again."

Xu Shi's meaning is also very simple, if the emperor really wants to see the fairy mountains, then naturally there is no problem, I will lead the way.But after passing, even if you return to the immortal position, even if you are an immortal, I am afraid that you will not be allowed to return to the mortal world again.

However, Ziying, who had been staring at Xu Shi's expression for faults, did find that when Emperor Shi Huang said that he wanted to see the scenery of the fairy mountain, Xu Shi's eyelids opened and closed a few more times than before.

It can be seen that Xu Shi was actually a little flustered for a while, but it was just because he covered it up so well that no one else noticed.

And in a flash, Xu Shi came up with a countermeasure, that is, if Emperor Shi Huang went, he might not be able to come back.

As the first emperor Yingzheng, what he wanted was to sit on the throne for ten thousand years, not to go to a small island to be a fairy.

If it was according to what Xu Shi said, it would not be too late to go to Xiandao to become a fairy after he got tired of being an emperor.

As Ziying thought, as soon as Xu Shi said this, Ying Zheng obviously hesitated.

"The matter of obtaining the fairy medicine in this way is entrusted to the people of Xushan." Ying Zheng paused and said, "I don't know what the people of Xushan need to ask for the fairy medicine?"

As soon as Ying Zheng said this, Ziying obviously saw Xu Shi's eyes beaming with joy, but he quickly covered it up.

From this, Ziying concluded that this Xu City must be a big fool just like in history.

"It's very windy at sea. I invite the Daoist and three thousand ministers, boys and girls, to go out to sea together." Xu Shi said slowly, printing his face on the ground.

Ziying's heart is indeed the same as in history, but he doesn't know what Xu Fu wants these virgins to do.

Is it true that Xu Fu led the three thousand virgins and virgins across the sea to Japan, as some later scholars speculated.

However, Ziying thought that with the current sailing conditions, if he really crossed the sea, he might be more likely to be buried in the belly of a fish.

Three thousand virgins, boys and girls, in the eyes of the first emperor, are nothing compared to his own longevity.

Seeing that Ying Zheng was quite moved, he seemed to agree to it immediately.

Ziying hurriedly stood up and said, "I would like to report to the emperor, the theory of gods and ghosts is illusory, and there have been many legends since ancient times, but no ancient people have been seen in the world.

I also ask the emperor to think twice. I think that if what Xu Shanren said is true, just choose a team of soldiers to visit and seek medicine with Xu Shanren. Why do you need three thousand virgins and virgins? "

Ziying refuted directly from the possibility of the elixir, pointing out that if the elixir was true, he would definitely be able to meet people thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago.

Since there is no such thing as elixir, it means that no one has ever taken such a thing as elixir, and it is very likely that there is no such thing as elixir.

Pouring Ziying's pot of cold water really made the excited Ying Zheng who was about to agree to Xu City sober up a lot.

After pondering for a while, Ying Zheng said, "Let's ask Gu He to bring a hundred guards to go with Master Xu."

Furukawa is one of Yingzheng's personal guards, so it is extremely reassuring to let him go to Yingzheng.

Seeing that Emperor Shi Huang had made a decision, Ziying was also relieved, and with Gu He going with him, it was expected that Xu Shi would not be able to play any tricks.

"The old man obeys the order of the real person."

On the contrary, Xu Shi's expression was a little mournful, but seeing that Emperor Shi Huang had made a decision, he didn't dare to refute too much. It would be a little guilty to directly object at this time.

"I don't know when the mountain man can come back after asking for medicine?" Shi Huang continued to ask.

"It's as fast as one or two months, and as slow as a year or two. Overseas fairy mountains don't stay in one place. I need to find the location of the fairy mountains by looking at the stars. If the fairy mountains are too far away from the coast, it may be difficult to come back for a while." Xu Shi said in a tone. Frustrated replied.

Langya County is located by the sea, and there was a large ship going out to sea. On the second day after Shi Huang gave the order, Xu Shi boarded the ship with a hundred guards led by Gu He and headed for the boundless sea.

According to what Xu Shi said, if everything goes well, he may be able to return in a month or two, so Emperor Shi Huang ordered to temporarily stay in Langya Palace and wait for a while.

However, after just over ten days, a sergeant reported that Xu Shi and a group of guards who had gone out to sea to search for immortals had returned.

The first emperor was overjoyed immediately when he heard the words.However, Ziying was really surprised. According to historical records, this Xu City was gone forever, how could it come back so soon.

If you dare to come back, if you don't have the medicine for longevity, how can you explain to the first emperor.

Hearing that Xu Shi was about to arrive, the first emperor, who was overwhelmed with surprise, immediately took the accompanying ministers out of the palace to meet the returning Xu Shi.

However, everyone was taken aback when they welcomed Xu Shi and the others who had returned.

It was a completely different group of people than when they went out more than ten days ago. When they went out, they didn't say they were tall, but they also had a military appearance and a high-spirited spirit.

However, after a while, it will be seen that these people have no image at all.

All of them seemed to have just escaped from a defeated battle. Even Xu Shi himself looked a bit embarrassed, and his eyebrows and beard, which were originally as white as snow, were full of stains.

"I'm ashamed of myself for not being able to obtain the elixir for the emperor." Before the first emperor could ask, Gu He knelt down and confessed his guilt.

In fact, after seeing the situation of these people, Emperor Shi Huang already had a rough guess in his mind, and when he heard his personal bodyguard plead guilty, he confirmed his assumption.

"Xu Shi, what else can you say?" Emperor Shi Huang gnashed his teeth while holding back his anger.

No one dared to tease him yet, and this time, Xu Shi's five horses who teased him will definitely be torn to pieces.

"Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with Xu Xianchang. We really saw the fairy mountain!" However, Gu He, who was Ying Zheng's personal bodyguard, was the first to defend Xu Shi when he heard Ying Zheng's accusation.

"Why did you see Xianshan!" Ying Zheng became excited when he heard it, and walked forward quickly, ordering: "Tell me the detailed situation."

Furukawa is his personal bodyguard, and he can be regarded as his confidant. In his opinion, Furukawa is one of the few people who are least likely to betray him. Furukawa's words are naturally extremely credible.

"Returning to Your Majesty, after we went out to sea, we headed east according to the direction directed by Master Xu. It was smooth sailing at first without any problems, but on the sixth day we encountered a terrible storm, with strong winds and torrential rains.

It was three days after the storm stopped, but on this day we saw the fairy mountain, we really saw the fairy mountain! "

Speaking of this, Furukawa's complexion turned red from excitement.

"The above is really as Xu Xianshi said. There are dense pavilions, towers and pavilions. From a distance, there are immortals walking between the buildings, but the mist is faint and unreachable. Moreover, because of the previous storm, the sails of our ships have been broken a few times. It’s a big hole, I have no choice but to go back.”
