From seeing it

Li Zhibao nodded and said, "It's exactly this that makes me wonder why this sentence appears again on this piece of stone."

While talking, he picked out a few more pieces of stone, pointed to Qin Wen on them and said to Xiao Ling: "These pieces of stone tell the story that they went down Penglai Mountain, went to Fangzhang Mountain, searched for fairy trails, and arrived at Yingzhou. Finally, it seems that the mountain we are on now is Yingzhou among the three fairy mountains in the East China Sea."

Yu Tingting also came over, and said, "It seems that although Xu Fu and the others found fairy traces in the first two mountains, they found nothing and failed to find the real way of longevity. They didn't find it until this Yingzhou. Gained."

Xiao Ling thought for a while, and said, "Old Li, it is written on these stone tablets that they finally gained something in this Yingzhou. Is there a specific description of what they gained? Did they have to meet immortals? Get the law of longevity? Or something else? Refers to?"

Li Zhibao shook his head and said: "The records on these stone tablets are very fragmentary, and there is no systematic description of the detailed process. What worries me the most is that the phrase 'Longevity is like a curse' appears here again, which makes me have a bad premonition."

Xiao Ling changed his expression, and said: "Old Li, what do you mean... maybe what Xu Fu and others said about 'longevity is like a curse' was not what we thought we were parasitized by the lighthouse ghost jellyfish? It was something else. ?”

Li Zhibao nodded with a solemn expression.

Xiao Ling murmured: "If there is another point...that would be bad." He understood the reason for Li Zhibao's serious face.

Yu Tingting said: "If it refers to the ghost jellyfish in the lighthouse, Xu Fu had already left bamboo slips in the first Penglai mountain to warn future generations. After coming to the third Yingzhou mountain, Xu Fu still carved this sentence on the stone. It seems that this sentence is very important to him, or this matter has always troubled him. From this point of view, it is very likely that this sentence really does not refer to the lighthouse ghost jellyfish. Our previous guess may be wrong .”

Xiao Ling said: "If Xu Fu really meant something else, then what does the phrase 'Longevity is like a curse'... mean?"

Li Zhibao picked up a few pieces of stone and looked at them carefully, his face became more and more serious, and he said slowly: "Look at the records of these pieces."

Pointing to Qin Wen on the top: "These pieces record that they started from Penglai Mountain and saw the fairy trails all the way, and then they followed the fairy trails and came here."

Xiao Ling said: "They have been seeing the fairy traces all the time, and followed the fairy traces to come here. What is the fairy trace recorded on it?"

Li Zhibao shook his head and said: "It's hard to say now, unfortunately there are no detailed records on these stone tablets."

Yu Tingting said: "What I'm more concerned about now is the repeated 'Longevity is like a curse' engraved on it. It must have a deep meaning, and it may be related to this fairy trace."

Xiao Ling raised his head, looked at the towering trees all around, looked at the flowers everywhere, and murmured: "There are still too few clues, what happened to Xu Fu and those people back then, that guy What is the truth?"

The person who looked exactly like himself reappeared in his mind. It was he who mentioned Guixu and told himself that he would know all the truth when he entered Guixu. Now they have arrived at Guixu and even boarded the three legendary Xianshan, but until now, it is still like a cloud and a fog, and there is nothing to be gained.

Everyone stayed here for a full two hours, and after confirming that there were no new discoveries, they finally left and continued to the deep mountains.

Although this piece of primeval forest was luxuriant, like a green ocean, it looked full of vitality, but gradually everyone realized that something was wrong.

"Sister Ting, do you feel a little abnormal? In such a forest, I didn't see a single animal or bird." Xiao Ling frowned slightly.

"Yes, these surroundings are too quiet, a little abnormally quiet." Hearing Xiao Ling's words, Hu Shengzhe was startled and noticed it.

Yu Tingting hummed, and said, "Yes, from yesterday to today, we don't seem to have seen a single animal here."

Xiao Ling said: "Anomalies are demons, there must be something wrong with this forest."

In the previous two black mountains, everyone encountered ancient strange beasts one after another. Now this mountain, not to mention the ancient strange beasts, does not even have ordinary wild beasts. It is so quiet that people feel weird.

Sun Tao swung the saber in his hand, cut off a tree branch in front of him, and said back, "Although I didn't see a single animal along the way, the trees here grow very well, which is really strange. In such a lush primeval forest, I couldn’t even see a single bird.”

Everyone couldn't guess the reason, Xiao Ling frowned slightly, always feeling a little restless, with a faint premonition that something dangerous was about to happen, but there were no big pale hands around, which seemed to mean that there would be no danger for the time being .

"What the hell is going on here? How can you be so confused?" Xiao Ling took a deep breath. Over the past few days, with more and more experiences, he has become calmer. Even if he is in danger of life and death, he will never be like this now Panicked, this feeling is really weird.

Suddenly, Sun Tao, who was clearing the way ahead, let out a soft sigh and said, "What a thick tree."

Following Sun Tao's voice, everyone looked up one after another, and saw a hundred meters ahead, surrounded by trees, stood an exceptionally strong and towering tree.

Xiao Ling looked up and saw that the height of this big tree exceeded fifty meters, and the diameter of the thickest part of the tree reached at least five meters.

"A tree this tall may be thousands of years old." Sun Tao looked at the big tree, took a saber, cut off the branches in front of him, and walked towards the towering tree.

Hu Shengzhe looked at it and said: "This should be a variant of the giant cedar, commonly known as the Lord of the World. Such a height is nothing. Now the largest tree in the world is called the General Xueman tree, which is 83.8 meters high and the largest diameter at the bottom. Reaching 11.1 meters, the age of the tree is between 2300 and 2700. The tallest tree is the Australian almond eucalyptus, which is 156 meters high. It is known as the tallest tower in the tree world. It is said that this tree absorbs water every day. Qian Jin, you can hear the sound of water flowing in it with your ears against this tree, but although the Australian Almond Eucalyptus is the tallest tree in the world, its trunk diameter is not very thick, so the largest tree is the General Sherman tree.”

Wang Lei shook his head and said, "Old Hu, have you forgotten the undead tree under the Rob desert?"

Xiao Ling thought of the undead tree as high as a thousand meters. Compared with the General Xueman tree that Hu Shengzhe just mentioned or the Australian almond eucalyptus, it is a pity that it has been destroyed.

Hu Shengzhe said: "The immortal tree is an ancient and strange tree, so it is naturally not included. Besides, it has been destroyed. I am afraid that there will be no more trees in the world than the General Sherman tree and the Australian almond tree."
