Time was running out, so Lu Fan simply told Wanzi to help guard the island and asked Mingfang to assist Mr. Long in managing the island's affairs, and then set off with everyone.
In order to hide from others, they found an ordinary monk ship, and under the cover of the densely packed waiting ships in the surrounding sea, they left Longhu Island overnight and headed straight for Xuanwu Island.
"How did you find South China Sea Wonderland and come in?"
After dealing with the Ghost King, Lu Fan finally had time to ask about the two people's origins.
Lu Wushuang and Song Jianqiu looked at each other, and after getting agreement from Song Jianqiu's eyes, they turned to look at Lu Fan: "Do you know Xu Fu?"
Xu Fu?
Lu Fan was stunned for a moment: "Of course I know that during the Qin Dynasty, the most famous alchemist was also the most trusted alchemist around Qin Shihuang, and he was the one who wrote to Qin Shihuang, saying that there are immortals in the three fairy mountains of Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou in the South China Sea.
live."
"Qin Shihuang sent Xu Fu to lead thousands of boys and girls, as well as three years of food, clothing, medicine and farming tools that had been prepared to ride into the sea in a mirage to seek immortality. It cost a lot of money, but he did not find the so-called immortal mountain, and even his own
The traces have become a thousand-year secret."
"Does this have anything to do with you coming here?"
"Of course."
Lu Wushuang took a deep breath and said, "According to historical records, after Qin Shi Huang destroyed the six kingdoms and unified China, he mobilized the entire country and mobilized more than 700,000 people to build the Qin Mausoleum. Luminous pearls were used as the sun, moon and stars in the mausoleum.
, using mercury as a hundred rivers and seas, "astronomy at the top, geography at the bottom", Qin Shihuang wanted to rule the world even after his death."
"But this huge underground palace needs lamps and candles to illuminate it. Ordinary oil lamps will definitely run out of oil in a short time."
"At this time, some alchemists suggested that "mermaid paste" could be used to make lamps that would last for thousands of years, so the First Emperor ordered to kill the sharks, refine "mermaid paste" as lamp oil, and use the mermaid paste as candles to save the immortals.
For a long time."
Lu Fan nodded when he heard this: "I have heard about this too. It is said that when Qin Shihuang's mausoleum was discovered, the ever-burning lamps in the tomb passage were still lit. The reason seems to be because the materials used to make the lamps were lost thousands of times.
Year’s worth of mermaid paste.”
"Yes, and according to the unofficial records of the Qin Dynasty, because Qin Shihuang's large-scale fishing and massacre of the South China Sea sharks made the people of the South China Sea miserable, the South China Sea shark king had to go out in person and presented a thousand-year-old luminous pearl to Qin Shihuang.
I hope I can stop him from continuing to massacre the sharks."
"However, this matter did not reach the ears of Qin Shihuang, but was intercepted by those alchemists with ulterior motives. After agreeing to their conditions on Qin Shihuang's behalf, they continued to order the massacre of the shark clan until the shark clan
Genocide."
"The genocide of the shark clan is a great regret in the history of China."
"However, not long after the shark clan was exterminated, there were rumors that strange phenomena continued in the South China Sea. People often saw the sun shining brightly at the end of the South China Sea, and the sun and moon in the sky at night."
"This news was witnessed by many people and soon spread to Xianyang, the capital of the Qin Dynasty at that time."
"It was mastered by the alchemists who have been monitoring the South China Sea area."
Hearing this, Lu Fan couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at her in disbelief: "The sun shines brightly in the day, the sun and the moon are in the same sky? Why does this scene sound so familiar to me?"
