"..."

Seeing that Wu Liang was so unkind, the good impression that Jin Wei had in his heart disappeared instantly. He frowned at Wu Liang and seemed to want to say something, but when he saw that his face was not kind, he had no intention of bargaining with him.

, and finally chose to keep her mouth shut.

"Young Master is doing this again..."

Everyone in the Hu army was not surprised by this.

They were very aware of Wu Liang's behavior. He was definitely not a good person with decent behavior, otherwise he would not have been able to take those children hostage.

But at the same time, he is not the kind of heinous villain. Let's put it this way, if Jin Wei and the people of Qu County really dare to harm the Hu army, Wu Liang may not be able to massacre the city, but if Jin Wei and Qu County

The people in the county cooperated with him honestly and did not make any troubles. Even if they did not cooperate with him, as long as they did not do anything to harm him and the Hu army, Wu Liang could only scare them at most, but he would not really go.

If you embarrass them, you won't embarrass those children who are not familiar with the world.

Therefore, everyone in the Hu army knew clearly that Wu Liang was talking to Jin Wei like this because he was cautious and was habitually bluffing this guy.

After all, once Wu Liang enters the ghost cave, he will no longer be able to grasp the situation outside at all times. If Jin Wei conceals any important information or has other thoughts hidden in his heart, this will be a problem for him and the Hu army.

It is very likely that they will be annihilated. It is necessary to put a pair of "shackles" on the "yellow scarf thieves" like Jin Wei to nip this possibility in the cradle.

"Any other questions?"

After blocking Jin Wei's mouth, Wu Liang glanced at the people in the Hu army, and then asked again.

"No more."

Everyone in the Hu army shook their heads.

Wu Liangpo's arrangement with Zhou Xiang has proved his determination to explore the ghost cave. They know that with Wu Liang's temperament, no matter what they say, this ghost cave must be entered.

The most important thing is that they really can't find any obvious loopholes in Wu Liang's arrangement. They also believe that as long as they follow the plan, the risk is completely within control and is no more dangerous than the ancient tombs they entered before.

, you might as well take the risk and give it a try.

After all, there is most likely a legendary fairyland under that ghost cave!

As aborigines of this era, they are actually more likely to believe in the existence of fairyland than Wu Liang, and some people's yearning even exceeds Wu Liang's curiosity.

"In that case, let's set up camp on the mountain for the next two days."

Wu Liang nodded and said to Yang Wanli, "Yang Wanli, you can't be idle these two days. You can lead people to carefully explore all over Yuzhou Mountain. Don't let go of any possible secret realms, secret passages or weird things."

This ghost cave is at the foot of Yuzhou Mountain, so maybe it has some connection with Yuzhou Mountain."

In fact, there is not only some connection with the ghost cave, but also the "Tai Gong Seal" in Wu Liang's arms.

How could Wu Liang forget the sudden and abnormal changes in Taigong's seal?

Therefore, he also has reason to guess that Yuzhou Mountain may be related to Jiang Ziya or Lu Qi founded by Jiang Ziya, but so far no relevant signs have been found on Yuzhou Mountain.

in addition.

Wu Liang still needs to do some things to verify the Tian Heng residence and the tombs without monuments. However, these things can easily cause controversy and must not be done in front of Jin Wei and others. He cannot even talk about it.

We can only do it privately after getting rid of them.

"promise."

Yang Wanli responded with his hands raised.

"Besides, old gentleman, you come with me for a moment."

Wu Liang walked forward and took Yu Ji to a deserted place.

He had just seen that Yu Ji had something to say but never said it out loud. It must have been because it was not convenient to say these words in front of so many people.

…

"My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and my son is the one who knows me."

When he came to a deserted place, Yu Ji immediately lowered his voice and asked, "Sir, I wonder if you have ever read a special chapter called the 'Fengchan Chapter' in "Tai Shi Gong Ji"?"

"Feng Chan Chapter?"

Wu Liang frowned and recalled.

There are many different special chapters in "Historical Records", covering almost every aspect from governance to people's livelihood, from emperors to common people, and some chapters are particularly long.

Although Wu Liang was a graduate student majoring in archeology in his previous life, he was still a person with limited energy. He could not know everything like a computer. When he really wanted to use some information, he still had to look for it and conduct research.

As for the "Fengchan Chapter" mentioned by Yu Ji now, Wu Liang didn't have much impression, and he didn't know whether it was not passed down to later generations or whether he didn't read it himself.

"Exactly."

Yu Ji nodded. He had already seen the confusion in Wu Liang's eyes. He said to himself that it was really not easy. There were chapters in "Tai Shi Gong Ji" that the young master didn't know about. However, he did not dwell on the matter and just continued,

"It is mentioned in the 'Feng Chan Chapter' that there are three sacred mountains outside the sea of ​​Qi. These three sacred mountains are called 'Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou' respectively. Since King Wei of Qi, King Xuan of Qi, and King Yan Zhao, they have often been visited by people.

We went out to sea to look for these three sacred mountains. It is said that some people have seen these three sacred mountains, but they were unable to climb them anyway. This is because when looking from a distance, the sacred mountains seemed to be among the clouds and mist, but when they came closer, they were not visible.

Only then did I realize that the sacred mountains were actually under the sea... Xu Fu was also mentioned in the "Feng Chan Chapter". When the First Emperor ordered Xu Fu to go to sea to find the elixir of immortality, it was also to climb these three sacred mountains, not the ancestral continent mentioned by the witch just now.

"

"this……"

Wu Liang pondered.

He also knew that Qin Shihuang ordered Xu Fu to go to sea and was looking for the three sacred mountains "Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou" instead of "Zuzhou". However, he did not know that the legendary three sacred mountains were actually under the sea.

?!

so……

Yu Ji's purpose in talking to him about this matter is self-evident.

He wanted to tell Wu Liang not to believe what the witch said before, nor to preconceptions that the ghost cave led to "Zuzhou". It might actually be "Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou".

One of the sacred mountains, after all, this "ghost cave" is under the sea water, which is very similar to the description of the three sacred mountains.

It's a pity that there are very few records about "Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou" in history books. Although Wu Liang knew about the three sacred mountains, he didn't have a specific concept, let alone what the sacred mountains and "ancestral continent" were.

The difference.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Liang said to Ji: "Old sir, just let me talk about this for the time being. We'll see what happens next."

"I know it, that's why I didn't talk about it in public just now."

Yu Ji nodded.

"In addition, the three sacred mountains of Zuzhou, Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou may not conflict. Maybe it's just that the times were different, so the names have also changed."

Wu Liang thought for a while and then said, "As far as I know, there is 'Yingzhou' among the ten continents in the giant sea, and there is also 'Yingzhou' among the three sacred mountains. This 'Yingzhou' should refer to the same place. As for

Zuzhou..."

At this point, Wu Liang finally contradicted himself.

Because unlike the other ten continents in the giant sea, the legend of Zuzhou and the "Yangshenzhi" on Zuzhou is related to Qin Shihuang, and the legend of the three sacred mountains is also related to Qin Shihuang. It is not difficult to judge that the two should be in the same place.

Period, logically speaking, if it is the same place, the name is unlikely to change much.

This question made Wu Liang a little confused.

In short, everything is just speculation now, and there is no way to get the correct answer without verification.

Wu Liang simply shook his head to get these speculations out of his mind. He wrote them down and be careful not to be misled by known information, especially information obtained from outsiders...

…

Next, the Hu army set up camp near Tian Heng's residence. While they ordered Yang Wanli to lead his men to explore Yuzhou Mountain, they also ordered people to guard Tian Heng's residence and not allow the "yellow scarf thieves" on the island to approach at will.

.

That night.

The Hu army was ordered to secretly dig out two tombs without monuments.

Because Wu Liang needed to verify the authenticity of the rumors first to see if those buried here were those who were loyal to Tian Heng.

There were indeed two complete human corpses buried in these two unmarked tombs.

The two corpses were not even rolled up on the simplest straw mats, but were just hastily buried in the pit, and now they have turned into two skeletons.

After Wu Liang cleaned the skeleton frame and examined it carefully, he found no obvious fatal cracks on the bones, but found traces of blackening on the bones from the neck to the abdomen. From this, it can be judged that the deceased should have committed suicide by taking poison.

Apart from these, there are no other discoveries.

But this is enough for Wu Liang, it further increases the credibility of those legends...the "living dead" transformed from the corpses of the retainers who once appeared on Yuzhou Mountain may also be true.

Done these.

Wu Liang ordered people to rebury the two corpses in the tombs, and attached some sacrifices. He also knelt down in front of the tombs to express his apology for disturbing him. At this point, the exploration of these tombs without monuments was temporarily suspended.

A paragraph is over.

Within the next two days.

Yang Wanli's exploration found nothing... Although Yuzhou Mountain is not too small, it is mostly rocks and has relatively little vegetation. Many places can be seen at a glance. There are too few places where secret realms or secret passages can be hidden.

The difficulty is not great.
To be continued...
