Penglai, these two words have always been linked to sacredness and mystery in the eyes of the Chinese people.

Legend has it that this is the dojo of the gods, and the Eight Immortals got drunk here and crossed the sea, leaving behind the legend that the Eight Immortals showed their magical powers when they crossed the sea.

Speaking of this mountain, people will probably immediately think of the fairy spirit curling up, palaces made of gold and silver, Zhuxuan trees growing everywhere, and immortals wandering around it. When mortals enter, the immortals caress their heads, grow their hair and receive immortality, and they transcend the world of mortals.

.

But what is the reality? We have gone through untold hardships and countless hardships of life and death, and when we finally set foot on this legendary land, what we saw before our eyes was simply a land of ghosts!

On the pier, there are countless boats of various sizes moored, most of which are fishing boats. Basically, all the models that Old One-Eye can recognize are available, but they have all been scrapped over the years. The paint on the hull has fallen off and is stained with rust.

A big iron lump is no different.

Among the many ships, there is even a 19th-century Western foremast ketch, but it is now a complete pile of scraps.

These large and small boats are crowded into the dock, making it look like a garbage dump.

It is deathly silent here. On the long and narrow coastline, the black sea water is constantly rolling and sweeping onto the beach. The places that are often washed away are strangely dark green, and from a distance, they look like they are covered with green algae.

In fact, this is completely caused by the erosion of the evil spirits in the sea. The evil spirits soak into the soil, and it is dark and wet all year round. It is difficult for Yang Qi to enter and cannot be dispelled. Yin and Yang are out of balance. Over time, the soil changes. We are here.

In one line of work, this kind of sand is called "plain corpse". Human corpses are meat corpses. It is self-evident what a plain corpse is. The effect is comparable to dead human flesh. Some magicians mix this kind of stuff into clay and bake it.

The utensils are for sale, and some people buy them and give them to people who want to kill them. After using them, it is like eating dead people every day. They often suffer from bad diseases and die after a short time.

Behind the pier, large and small wooden houses are dotted around, like a small fishermen's village. However, most of these houses have been in disrepair for a long time, and some have collapsed. They have nothing like the paradise that Qi Monkey said, let alone planted.

That kind of strange crop irrigated by salt water. It was obviously compiled by Qi Houhou. He has a very rich imagination and he has a nose and eyes. I feel that this grandson, Ruluo Hai Gang, is completely unqualified. He wants to be a role writer who writes stories.

What a good hand!

This is just a ruin, nothing weird, and no people.

It seems that Luo Songyuan had killed all the people controlled by the Poli beast ten years ago, and now only Qi Houhou and his men are left. With the destruction of these people, this place has completely become a deserted ghost village.

However, it is not that there are no discoveries in this ruins.

We found a megalithic temple. The temple was very small and empty. There was only a stone pile similar to a totem or a statue of a god. They were all made of polished square stones and were shaped like a burning ball.

There was a stone plate in front of the flame. There was a groove on the stone plate. I looked at the shape of the groove and it matched perfectly with the magnesia metal sheet contained in Luo Songyuan's voyage diary.

If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the holy place Luo Songyuan mentioned. They stole the strange metal piece from this huge stone temple back then.

On the stone plate, there is a series of strange characters engraved on it, which is exactly the kind of shark characters that Lao Bai mentioned.

Intuition tells us that this sentence must be very important.

Unfortunately, Lao Bai could only decipher the words of the sharks through dolphin language and other animal languages, but he didn't understand the words at all. We had to give up and searched the entire village several times to confirm that there was no danger.

, we were relieved.

Brother Yaozi left the megalithic temple, climbed onto the roof of a nearby wooden house, and looked at the giant mountains in the distance.

Qi Houhou is untrustworthy, he talks all the time, and not one of the ten sentences may be true, but he really does not tell lies about the topography of the island.

This island... is indeed divided.

The bare coastline is an area where outsiders controlled by the Poli beast can only move around. After passing through these wooden houses, about three to four hundred steps, the front plunges into the vast jungle.

It can be seen that this is a huge mountain that is breathtakingly huge. It is vast and green. Although there is no sunshine all year round, the vegetation is very dense. The vines on the ground are crisscrossed and almost intertwined into a large network. The branches of these vines show a

It is a black-green color, but its leaves are somewhat similar to biting nettles. It is a plant that we have never seen before.

There are also those trees, which are also very strange. They do not grow neatly and straight. The trunks are twisted and twisted, but they are very strong. It is difficult for two or three people to hug each other. The crown of the tree is open like a big umbrella, and the giant trees are very far apart.

So close that the tree crowns are connected together, forming a huge dome.

This is also something we don't recognize.

When I came here, I had a sense of time travel, as if we were hundreds of millions of miles away from the world I was familiar with, across the stars and the sea, and not even in a galaxy.

But my master smiled and said, this is normal. According to our Taoist theory, the yang does not grow alone and the yin does not grow. Therefore, the heaven and the earth are matched with yin and yang. This place does not see light all the year round, has no yang energy, and is extremely yin and extremely evil. It is exactly

The so-called lonely land is bound to change. This dense forest is a little bit of vitality that is bred to achieve a delicate balance. This is tantamount to the creation of the world. It is reasonable for some plants that are completely different from the outside to appear.

No need to make a fuss.

At this time, the kite brother outside suddenly called to the two of us urgently.

I thought he had made some great discovery, so I ran out in a hurry, but I saw Brother Yaozi looking into the distance with a solemn face.

“You’d better come up and take a look!!”

Brother Yaozi waved to me: "It's better for you to see for yourself."

I hurriedly climbed up to the roof of the wooden house. This house was already very fragile. If you stood on it, the roof would creak and creak, as if it would collapse.

Brother Yaozi pointed at the mountains in the distance, and I looked where he pointed.

It turned out that he was looking at the overall shape of this mountain.

Unfortunately, this is not the outside, there is no light, darkness has enveloped the mountain, and only the hazy outline can be seen, it is so majestic and vast that it is unbelievable.

"I asked you to look at the middle place."

Brother Yaozi said: "Don't you think that mountain is very interesting?!"

I originally wanted to say what could you see in this dark place, but when I saw how serious he was, my heart sank.

In fact, things like Feng Shui really require some talent.

This is just like artistic creation. The great hero Huang Zhan could create "Shanghai Beach" after taking a shit and flushing the toilet. The opening line of "Walk and Wave" made many people unable to help but want to sway when they heard it? Look at Feng Shui. It's almost the same thing.

I am not a master of Kanyu, but my ancestors have lived underground for eighteen generations, so I have this gene in my bones. At this moment, I completely opened my mind, stared at it carefully for a long time, and really got some ideas.

The mountain top mentioned by Brother Yaozi naturally does not refer to the entire mountain, but to the top of the mountain.

Generally, the outline of a mountain is rounded and complete, very natural.

But this mountain doesn’t look so natural!!

How should I put it? Compared with the overall mountain body, the peak at the top of the mountain is not so coordinated and feels a bit stiff, as if it is independent!!

"Kind of like... a tomb?"

I hesitated for a moment, then immediately changed my tone: "No, in Feng Shui terms, this kind of appearance should be called bamboo shoots. It has a tomb!!"

Bamboo shoots, this is the term.

People in the Tang Dynasty built mountains for tombs, and the tombs were the most magnificent. However, such projects were too expensive and most people couldn't bear it. But if they couldn't stand it and wanted to enjoy that kind of style and treatment, they naturally had to think of other ways. This is just like luxury goods. It’s too expensive. Many people like it but are short of money, so they can only make high imitations. The same goes for building tombs. People can’t suffocate to death. So in the Song Dynasty, there was a genius who sorted out the earth’s veins, not digging mountains, but only digging the tops of mountains. Er, created a tomb that is both economical and affordable, and has a lasting charm.

However, building a tomb requires work after all. Work on the top of the mountain will inevitably destroy the coordination of the mountain. No matter how skilled the craftsman is, it is impossible to compete with the uncanny workmanship of nature. Therefore, this kind of tomb on the top of the mountain looks too many. It's a bit stiff, so it's called bamboo shoots in the jargon.

This discovery is neither big nor small, at least it made me feel a little enlightened.

We have very few clues about this place. We came here for the Earth Spirit Pearl. We only know that the Earth Spirit Pearl born in the Tang Dynasty was on the lost body of Concubine Yang Guifei. We also speculate that this place may be the legendary Penglai.

However, we have no idea what is waiting for us in Penglai!

Judging from the song sung by the sharks, this place seems to be the ruins of an ancient country.

Qi Hou said again that this is the palace of the gods.

Now I understand everything, it’s just a fucking tomb!!

This result is not unexpected, but it finally makes me feel at ease.

"Yes, it is indeed a tomb."

Brother Yaozi narrowed his eyes slightly, turned to smile at me and said, "I've worn out my iron shoes and found nowhere. I'm awakening, so I wish you good luck in advance."

I don't understand where joy comes from.

"This is a murderous burial."

My master touched the back of my head and said very gently: "This place is surrounded by a black sea, and the evil energy in the sea is so strong that it deserves the word "Sea of ​​Hell". This mountain is the only place where roots take root in the Sea of ​​Hell, and the tomb hangs high on the top of the mountain.

, it’s equivalent to being in a Yin Qi steam furnace, even more sinister than the Demon Burial Tomb we saw before.”

Now I understand, evil burials are unsuitable places for burials. To put it bluntly, dead people cannot be buried because they are buried in grave dangers. The Demon Burial Tomb is a polar evil burial pavilion because the dead will be suppressed if they are buried in it, and this is considered an evil burial.

It's just that the buried people are floating on a sea of ​​darkness, which is a very dangerous situation.

Back then, Guo Xun crossed the sea and returned to the mainland. He tried his best to lurk next to Concubine Yang. He offered the earth spirit beads and some fragrant muscle pills to make Yang Yuhuan sterile in his life. After his death, he stole the body. At that time, Qingzhu

He said that Guo Xun must have been eyeing Yang Yuhuan and wanted to cultivate something. Now that the murderous burial situation of raising a big evil has appeared, the answer is obvious - we have not messed around along the way, Yang Guifei is in the tomb at the top of the mountain.

!

Brother Yao Zi Daoxi is right. He has found the exact location of Yang Yuhuan. This is not looking for a needle in a haystack. Finding the Earth Spirit Pearl to save my life is no longer an empty talk!

But, I really can’t figure it out, what does Guo Xun have to do with the ancient country that the sharks sing about? And did the Boli beast also come out of the tomb?

It is destined to be difficult to find the answers through imagination, so I could only sigh softly and jump off the wooden house.

We have searched this place inside and out, and we will not miss anything. After a brief rest, a group of us plunged into the vast jungle.

The road was difficult to walk. The vines on the ground were intertwined with thorns and were extremely hard, which greatly slowed down our progress. In addition, there was no light here, and it was difficult to distinguish between day and night. It was easy to lose track of time while walking here.

All I know is that we have walked for a long, long time, but there is still no end in sight, and it is so long that people feel hopeless.

"I can't do it anymore, I really can't do it anymore!!"

Suddenly, Lao Bai yelled and sat down on the exposed roots of a giant tree: "These two legs are as if they were filled with lead. I really can't move..."

"Look at your future."

Brother Yaozi turned around and cursed: "Shunzi and Lao Duyan didn't say anything, but you are so delicate..."

Before he finished speaking, he stopped abruptly, and his eyes fell on Lao Bai, who subconsciously lifted him up and placed him on his lap.

Lao Bai didn't care at all. He was about to speak with a smile, but was interrupted by an exclamation from Zhang Xinya next to him: "Your legs..."
