On the top of Yunmeng Mountain, a man with fluttering robe sleeves walked on the mountain. Although he was strolling leisurely in the courtyard, he felt as if he had shrunk to the ground and was as graceful as a startled giant.
In the mountains not far away from the line of sky, Meng Tian and Fusu were stunned.
Meng Tian didn't say anything. He had already concluded that the man in the mountain was a stranger, maybe a god. But now that he saw this scene that looked like a god, his mood was agitated.
But Fusu was different. At this time, his mind felt like rolling thunder, and his face turned pale.
Yunmeng Mountain is the remnant of the Wuling Mountains. The Wuling Mountains, which stretched for thousands of miles, ended abruptly here, leaving behind a towering stone forest.
Yunmeng Mountain is the largest one in the stone forest, covering an area of several miles. It rises abruptly from the mountainside. Two stone peaks, one on the left and one on the right, pierce the sky.
Yunmeng Mountain is not too steep yet. Although it is tall, it occupies a vast area and can still be climbed and walked. If you follow the mountain road, go all the way around the ridge, and cross the sky, you can reach Tianmen Terrace. This place can already be regarded as the top of Yunmeng Mountain, because the stone peaks on both sides are like knives and axes, which are basically uninhabitable.
Most of the other stone peaks in the stone forest are just like these two stone peaks on the top of Yunmeng Mountain. They are no more than ten feet from east to west, but nearly two hundred feet high. They rise from the ground like swords, and even apes and monkeys can climb them. Can't climb up.
There is no way for people to walk in these places. If you miss the mark, you will fall into the deep valley and be shattered into pieces. Not to mention that between the stone peaks, although they seem to be close together from the ground, they seem to be able to pass by just one step. But in fact, some are more than a hundred feet wide, and some are dozens of feet narrow.
Even if there are two stone peaks at the top of Yunmeng Mountain, although they are sandwiched together and are known as a line of sky, the distance between them is more than three feet. It is difficult for humans, not to mention apes, to cross!
However, the stranger walked as if he were walking on flat ground, crossing the hundred-foot-wide distance in one step!
"Hiss..." A gasp sounded. Seeing that the stranger had disappeared behind the stone forest, Fusu finally came back to his senses. He said in surprise, "Could this be the art of soaring on land?"
"The art of soaring on land? What do you mean?" Meng Tian finally came to his senses and glanced at Fusu subconsciously.
"I love reading and have read hundreds of schools of thought, including many ancient books."
Although there was no trace of the stranger in the sky, Fusu still looked at the direction in which the stranger had disappeared, and said in surprise: "There were clouds in the Book of Mountains and Seas, and the ancient heavenly beings were chasing the sun, and in nine days, they were nearly there." In other words, he died of thirst."
"Later there was a Taoist saying that this is the art of soaring over land!"
Meng Tian was startled: "Young master, do you mean that this is a heavenly being?"
Meng Tian had also heard the myth and legend of "Kuafu chasing the sun". These stories were actually books for the enlightenment of the nobles at this time, but they were written in a very simple way.
The Kuafu clan are the sons of ancient gods. From the perspective of ancient bloodlines, the sons of gods are not gods, but can only be regarded as heavenly beings. Naturally, gods and humans do not have the great supernatural powers of gods and humans, but with a single movement of their hands, they can change the color of heaven and earth.
For example, Hou Yi, the emperor's minister, was not a god, but a celestial being who could shoot the sun.
During the Qin Dynasty, the Chinese people's view of gods was extremely simple, and Taoism was one of the hundreds of schools of thought.
Although with the rise of alchemists, the theory of immortals has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there are many people in the world who seek immortals, but in everyone's mind, immortals are still inferior to heavenly beings.
After all, immortals only seek immortality, while celestial beings are the inheritance of ancient gods and men. They are the ones who can truly change the world with a single move of their hands!
Meng Tian was already happy at this time.
Originally, I only wanted the other party to be an immortal who could refine the elixir of immortality for the First Emperor. I never expected that this stranger turned out to be a higher-level heavenly being!
"He may not be a heavenly being, and I don't know if it is unclear in the ancient books." Fusu glanced at Meng Tian with straight eyes, "However, I do know one thing."
"This stranger is absolutely extraordinary!"
"Sir, General, are we going to invite him back?" A voice sounded from behind, and it was Meng Xi.
Meng Xi's face was also shocked at this time, and at the same time he was as proud as if he had been wronged.
He had gone to Yunmeng Mountain with Meng Tian before, and he had seen with his own eyes what the foreigner preached, and he knew that what his general said was true.
However, the young master Fusu refused to believe him, including himself and other bodyguards who swore to heaven to testify for the general. All they received from the young master Fusu was "I know it, so go ahead".
Today, I saw with my own eyes a strange person walking on the rainbow, and Prince Fusu also recognized this as the so-called "land soaring technique" in ancient books, and finally cleared the grievances of the general and himself.
At this time, Fusu's mind finally came to his senses. He spoke with praise: "Exactly, how can such a stranger be allowed to wander in the mountains and fields? He should be enshrined as a sage of Great Qin! Hurry up and catch up. The general and I will go and invite him personally!"
At this time, there was a storm in his heart.
Ever since Meng Tian went to Jiangling to meet Fusu, he had never tired of mentioning the stranger in Yunmeng Mountain, hinting that he was a god.
Fusu had never believed in so-called gods before. In his opinion, it was not surprising that there were several strangers in Chu who could command the beasts.
Including the one who just went to the front army in anger, he also came with the idea of eliminating the delusion in the general's mind.
Since you have always wanted me to accompany you to the top of Yunmeng Mountain to confirm whether the stranger is a god, then I will do what you want and completely extinguish your hopes.
I never expected that Meng Tian was right!
In the world of Great Qin, there are really people like gods and immortals!
And if there really are gods and immortals, wouldn’t it be possible for the First Emperor to live forever?
Fu Su was smart and eager to learn, and studied various schools of thought. Although he appeared to be a supporter of Legalism, in reality, he loved Confucianism very much.
Confucianism pays attention to "benevolence and filial piety", and Fu Su also deeply believes in this. If people are not benevolent and filial, how are they different from animals?
Just like the First Emperor, although he himself was not liked by the First Emperor, Fusu still respected him deeply.
When he was born, it was the time when the six kingdoms were in chaos. Qin attacked Chu, Liang wanted to destroy Qi, and the people of Qi fought against the heroes of the north in the wilderness of the former king, and the world was in ruins.
Without the First Emperor, how could the world be unified?
There are endless attacks among the six countries, and the war has lasted for hundreds of years. How can the people of the world be at peace?
The First Emperor, with his great talents and great strategies, promised eternal dreams for the people of the world.
"If I win for eternity, the Qin Dynasty will last for eternity, and the people of the world will be safe for eternity!"
These words of the First Emperor are also Fusu's dream.
If this is the case, what if he will never succeed to the throne in his lifetime?
However, it was revealed that the alchemist had deceived the First Emperor, which made the First Emperor wake up from his dream and made Fusu furious.
Just because the elders of the six kingdoms made this matter a joke, saying that the First Emperor was already fatuous, and the current was flowing in both the government and the public.
Fusu didn't know where the countercurrent started. He only knew that if this continued, the world would be in chaos again!
However, at this moment, looking at the rainbow in the sky and recalling the miracle of the stranger stepping on the rainbow, Fusu felt a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
Is the world stable? They all place their trust in the body of this heavenly being, and he should be regarded as the Great Saint Immortal Master of the Great Qin Dynasty!
