The mysterious island at night is scary. Tree snakes are everywhere with venomous insects and scary shapes. It is a paradise for dark creatures. However, it is not as safe as we expected during the day, and is even more dangerous because there are more threatening creatures. .

We climbed up along the undulating lines of the mountains. When we were halfway up the mountain, a terrifying giant bird flew across the sky, blocking out the sky and the sun. It had a wingspan of forty meters and was so big that it was scary.

That was a skua. Even if it was not nourished by the dragon energy, it was still a terrifying predator in the sea. Now it has reached the point where people are frightened, and it is simply a plane.

Our group was so frightened that we rolled around and hid among the rocks, and finally escaped the murder.

Nowhere is safe here.

After calming down, we continued on our way.

The red sun rises in the east and slowly rises from the sea level. The small island under the sun is misty and misty, like a fairy cave. The light yellow clouds are floating in the mountains and forests. It is not ordinary water vapor, but is formed by the dragon's air. It is breathed in and out of the mouth and nose. , the spirit is greatly invigorated, the mind is clear, and every pore is relaxed.

"This place is really pleasant."

Ikaruga stopped and sighed: "This is especially true for those of us who use potions to open up the body's secrets. If we live here for a long time and absorb the energy of heaven and earth to stimulate our own infinite evolution, it will be great in the end. Reaching the level of Nirvana is only a matter of time."

"Yes, it's just a matter of time, but are you really sure you can survive until then?"

I turned around and said with a smile: "Are you looking at that big skua just now? That thing is obviously much smarter. It soars in the sky and hovers here as if inspecting and patrolling its own territory. Can you beat it? ? Its eyes are very sharp. We are lucky today. If we hang around under its nose every day, we will die sooner or later!"

Ikaruga stopped talking. He had to use all his strength to kill the tree snake last night. The one in the sky was not the same heavyweight as the tree snake at all. The tree snake was just the easiest item in its recipe. Dish, there is no chance if we face each other!

"All the creatures living here may seem powerful, but in fact they will not fare well."

I lowered my head and remembered what a dragon hunter said to me before, and gave it to Ikaruga verbatim: "Although the dragon veins are strong, and the Qi junction has infinite magical effects, this is not something that living beings can enjoy. Yes, living in the dragon veins has little benefit but endless harm. This is stealing the power of the earth veins, and you will not die well. In short, everything has a price."

I took a deep breath of the intoxicating air and shook my head. This was just a taste of it. Let me polish myself here. I didn’t dare. I straightened my backpack and continued to move forward.

In such a place, we didn’t even feel tired, we walked quickly and reached the top of the mountain earlier than expected.

"Huh?"

The soldier suddenly let out a light sigh and quickly walked behind a boulder in the lee of the wind. He squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil, picked it up and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it gently.

This is an isolated island in the sea. The soil is basically sand, but the handful the soldier grabbed is black clay.

"What's the point?"

Ni Huang knelt down and saw that the soldier was no longer smiling playfully. He became interested and urged: "Say it quickly."

"Tupi is interesting!"

The soldier smiled and said: "This is the soil for making bricks, but it is not the kind of clay used in modern times. This kind of soil is called black lead soil in our jargon. Only people before the Han Dynasty would use this kind of soil to bake bricks, but because of the quantity It is rare and there are not so many resources, so it is rare to see bricks and tiles made of this kind of soil in ancient buildings after the Han Dynasty. This kind of soil is usually found in ravines, but here it is on the top of the mountain."

Ni Huang looked at him puzzled.

"There were people here before, and they were definitely not the people who built the tomb of Emperor Chunren. Little Japan doesn't know the technology of black lead clay bricks. This technology has been lost long ago. It is the craft of our ancestors. During the Qin and Han Dynasties A flash in the pan!"

Dabing patiently explained that visual analysis of soil is the basic skill of Tufuzi. He talked about it in detail: "Before Emperor Junren, there were people who came here long ago. The time should be the Qin and Han Dynasties. Only those from that period Talented people knew how to bake bricks with black lead soil. After they came here, they accidentally discovered that there were rich black lead soil resources on the island, so they transported the black lead soil from the gully to the top of the mountain to bake bricks. Because black lead soil When clay bricks are fired, the smoke will contain lead. If you inhale too much, you will get lead poisoning. Therefore, brick kilns that use black lead clay to bake bricks are usually built on high places such as the top of the mountain to facilitate the smoke to escape. If I guessed correctly, then A brick kiln is right at my feet. Now these buildings have weathered and disappeared, leaving only some black lead soil mixed in the soil."

These things are speculations made by Ding Bing based on some clues. Although he has not witnessed what happened here before, he will not deviate too much.

Mountains, rivers, vegetation, stones and bricks, these things can speak.

Tufuzi can understand the "words" they say, and soldiers are masters of this and can judge many things through some traces.

After giving Ni Huang a rough explanation, the soldiers moved the boulder away, took out the engineering shovel and dug down. After a while, the engineering shovel made a "clang" sound, as if it had shoveled something.

The soldier quickly dug the thing out from under the soil.

This is a dark thing that has been corroded beyond recognition.

The soldier pulled off the sand and soil on it, weighed it in his hands, and laughed: "Qin Zhuan, it seems that my guess was right. Someone discovered this island as early as the Qin Dynasty. You Look at these black lead bricks, they are beautifully burned. There must have been an ancient city here before, and it was built by the Qin Dynasty people after they came here!"

"Why must it be an ancient city?"

Ji Zi frowned and said: "I don't understand these things, but why can't it be an ancient tomb? Xiaojiu also said that this place has good Feng Shui and can bury dead people. Maybe someone in the Qin Dynasty took a fancy to the Feng Shui here. So you pulled black lead soil, burned bricks on the top of the mountain, and then built your own mausoleum?"

"This brick told me."

The soldier weighed the ancient bricks in his hand and said: "Look, these bricks are hollow bricks with geometric patterns on them. These bricks are not used in tombs. They are used on steps or when building palaces. If it were not for the construction of the ancient city, this kind of bricks would not be burned on the wall."

"I have a little guess..."

Ni Huang held her chin and said softly: "The Qin Dynasty had very few sailing experiences, only a handful. The most famous one was the first emperor's sailing order to search for overseas fairy mountains and seek immortality. Back then, Xu Fu took thousands of boys with him The virgins traveled east on a ship, but there was no news. Some people suspected that they went to Japan. Now it seems that they may have really found Penglai Island, where we are now, and then they built a Qin Dynasty island here. Unfortunately, this ancient city has been completely buried by time, leaving only some black soil and remaining Qin bricks."

"Then the history of this place is really complicated."

Xiong Zi smiled and said: "Thousands of people led by Xu Fu in the Qin Dynasty built the ancient city here. Then they disappeared for some reasons. They may have gone to Japan or other places. In short, there is no news about this ancient city. Abandoned, and then Emperor Junhi came again? It seems that the bereaved emperor is quite good at choosing places..."

"It's not because of the dragon veins. An ancestral dragon from Changbai Mountain escaped into the sea, leaving this treasure land behind."

Ni Huang looked at me and reminded: "Ye Xiaojiu, it's time for you to get to work, right? You must find Chunren's tomb!"

In fact, she didn’t even need to tell me, I was already busy.

At this time, the sun was shining in the sky, the clouds and fog here began to disperse, and the eyes suddenly opened up, overlooking almost the entire island.

At the foot of the mountain is the river.

The island as a whole is like a big mountain, with an inland river running through it, splitting the island into three parts, like three mountains standing upright. I almost stared at the junction of the three mountains at a glance. It is shaped like a basin and the area is It is quite wide, the water flows together, and the land is fertile.

That's definitely a great place.

I ignored them, took out the drawings, and went down the mountain to survey them myself.

Dabing’s guess is right. Although the ancient city of the Qin Dynasty has disappeared, it still leaves many traces. Through these traces, I can easily measure the scale of the ancient city of the Qin Dynasty. When I return to When I reached the top of the mountain, my eyes had changed when I looked at this place.

The landscape layout here is very mysterious!

At the beginning, I could only generally see that the valley at the junction of three mountains was a good place, but I could not see the details. It was difficult to understand and beyond imagination. I almost blamed Ni Huang and resigned, but there was no way. I was too trusting and underestimated the Dragon Nest!

Fortunately, Xu Fu, an ancestor and great expert in Feng Shui, has been here long ago. He has seen through this place and built a city here, making full use of the landscape layout here!

I mapped the layout of the ancient city built by Xu Fu. Through this, I can see how Xu Fu played with this place, how to attract, move and release the dragon's energy. It's clear at a glance!

I naturally know the locks here.

All in all, this place is very scary. It’s my luck to be able to see through its secrets. I got Xu Fu’s credit. This is like planting trees for future generations to enjoy the shade!

"How was it?"

Ni Huang came to me and asked: "It's getting late, the sun is setting in the west, and the fog here is thick again, covering the valley. Do you have any results?"

"Penglai Fairy Island is worthy of its name."

I sighed, the shock still lingering in my heart, and whispered: "This is the place where immortals have to become immortals!!"
