Chapter 902
This made the people of the Qin Guo talk about it with great relish.
After this incident, what was even more amazing was that the Imperial Preceptor had actually found the overseas immortal mountains on this trip and brought back many rare treasures.
The Emperor specially ordered people to display the weapons of the ancient powerhouses that Su Xuan brought back from Fangzhang Mountain, which left many ministers astonished. Even if they only looked from afar, they could feel the bloody aura emanating from these weapons.
Undoubtedly, these are all well-deserved fierce weapons.
And no one knows what kind of existence these weapons have slaughtered.
The matter of the immortal mountains is real, which caused a great turmoil.
Originally, because the Mirage had not returned for two years, many people had many criticisms about Ying Zheng's order to build the Mirage, and they were not optimistic about the Imperial Preceptor going out to sea.
Now, the Mirage has returned and brought back some things.
This undoubtedly overturned some people's views.
While overturning everyone's views, the most curious thing is one thing.
Since the immortal mountains are real, do immortals exist? And... what about the elixir of immortality?
Did the Imperial Preceptor find the elixir of immortality when he went out to sea?
It's just because this matter is of great importance, so it was not publicized!
If the Emperor could achieve immortality with the elixir of immortality found by the Imperial Preceptor, then the situation in the world might change because of this.
An emperor who lives forever is not a good thing for many people.
At first, this was just some people's speculation in the dark.
In the end, no one knows who leaked the news, spreading this speculation to the whole world. Then, through hearsay, it gradually evolved into Imperial Preceptor Su Xuan going out to sea and having already found the elixir of immortality for the Emperor.
Two years ago, the Mirage going out to sea was not a secret.
In order to cover up the truth of the Canglong Seven Mansions, the Mirage went out to sea, and the public explanation was that the Emperor admired the immortal Dao, so he sent the Mirage out to sea to search for immortals.
Therefore, now that the Mirage has returned, the fact that Su Xuan successfully found the elixir of immortality also makes many people deeply convinced.
The land of the former State of Chu.
In Yunmengze.
After the destruction of the State of Chu, many refugees and bandits, because they were unwilling to accept the rule of the Qin Guo, all fled into Yunmengze. Now, the water bandits of Yunmengze have become a major hidden danger here. The Qin Guo has also tried to pacify the banditry, but unfortunately, the terrain of Yunmengze is complex, and the gains were not great.
Deep in the vast Yunmengze.
Chu Chu Nangong heard the recent rumor. As a person of the Yin-Yang School, he recited a sentence from the work of the Daoist ancestor Lao Dan, "Heaven and earth are long-lasting. The reason why heaven and earth can be long and lasting is that they do not live for themselves, so they can live forever."
"Elixir of immortality, does this thing really exist in this world?"
Chu Chu Nangong expressed doubt.
But the rumors are like this, and even he doesn't know if it's true. More importantly, it was Su Xuan who went out to sea to seek immortals this time.
Because he had contact with Su Xuan, he knew Su Xuan's strength very well and knew what realm Su Xuan had reached.
The person who went out to sea was Su Xuan, which made Chu Chu Nangong dare not conclude that the elixir of immortality did not exist.
On the contrary, in front of Chu Chu Nangong, a young man said firmly, "No, this is not true. Ying Zheng cannot get the elixir of immortality. Even if he really lives forever, one day, I will definitely kill him!"
Beside the young man, there were two middle-aged men. After hearing the young man's words, they immediately showed approval.
Chu Chu Nangong sighed faintly when he heard these words.
When will the retribution of grievances end? Being too obsessed with the hatred of the old country is actually not good.
But he couldn't say much, because the young man's two uncles had taught him the concept of revenge since he was a child!
The young man and the two middle-aged men were people of the Xiang clan of the State of Chu.
In the past, when the Qin Guo destroyed the State of Chu, the two of the Xiang clan took their elder brother's child and fled Shouchun. Seeing that they were about to die under the siege of the Qin Guo, it was Chu Chu Nangong who saved them.
Although Chu Chu Nangong was once a person of the Yin-Yang School, strictly speaking, he was a person of the State of Chu.
Regarding the destruction of the State of Chu, he couldn't bear it, so he took action to save some people.
Qin Guo, in the Xianyang Palace.
Su Xuan looked at some of the public opinion in the world collected by the Luo Wang and couldn't help but sigh, "Rumors stop at the wise. Xun Zi's words are not wrong in their original intention, but unfortunately, even Xun Zi did not expect that in this world, where are there so many wise people? Therefore, rumors can only ferment like this."
Even Su Xuan did not expect that the return of the Mirage would evolve into him bringing back the elixir of immortality through hearsay.
Sighing in his heart, he looked at Ying Zheng in front of him, "Does Your Majesty really not intend to end these rumors?"
Ying Zheng's answer surprised Su Xuan, "Why should I end these rumors? Wouldn't it be better to let these rumors ferment in the world?"
Su Xuan's eyes flickered, and he gradually understood some of Ying Zheng's meaning.
