Langya County, seaside.
According to legend, there are three fairy mountains in this overseas land: Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou. Immortals live on the fairy mountains.
Gods are naturally mysterious.
Due to various reasons, the First Emperor wanted to find the remaining mysteries in the world, so he sent Guiguzi's disciples and the alchemist Xu Fu to lead more than 3,000 boys and girls to travel east to Yingzhou in 219 BC, hoping to find the remaining mysteries for the First Emperor. and the elixir of life.
However, it is a pity that Xu Fu did not find the elixir of immortality and returned dejectedly after exhausting the resources to go to sea.
The First Emperor did not punish Xu Fu, but returned Xu Fu to his hometown of Langya County to wait for the next order from the First Emperor.
At this moment, the depressed Xu Fu was walking on the beach.
Although he is depressed, it is not because he has not completed his mission.
But... I was simply in a bad mood and wanted to relax, so I came to this deserted beach.
Taking off his shoes and throwing them aside, Xu Fu walked barefoot along the beach, looking at the foam stirred up by the waves and the blue and white skyline. He sighed slightly melancholy, stretched out his slender fingers, and gently touched Twisting a small strand of his hair.
"It is said that alchemists are powerful and live at ease... How can there be any freedom at all..." With a sigh, Xu Fu stood still, with his hands behind his back, smelling the salty sea breeze. There was an air of exhaustion all over his body.
"Huh?" While staring at the blue sea, Xu Fu noticed something appearing on the sea.
"It seems like something floated over..." Xu Fu squinted his eyes and muttered in a low voice.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
When the floating object got closer, Xu Fu's eyes suddenly shrank.
"Is it a human?"
Xu Fu's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and he used his tactics to pull the suspected corpse floating on the sea toward the shore——
A human-shaped object was pulled up from the sea and fell heavily on the beach.
"She's really a human being." Xu Fu blinked, "And she's also a woman."
"It's not rotten. Did she just drown...? Huh?" Xu Fu leaned down to check the condition of the "female corpse", only to find...
This woman seems to be still alive?
After holding his chin and thinking for a moment, Xu Fu sighed, put his hand on the woman's chest, and murmured quietly to himself: "She is obviously an iconic beauty, why would she want to commit suicide? If I hadn't happened to be at the beach, I’m afraid that Xiangxiaoyu will die..."
The magic power vibrated the woman's lungs, knocking out all the excess water in her lungs.
"Pfft..." Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly opened her eyes as soon as she came into contact with the magic power. When she opened her mouth, a large mouthful of sea water spurted out, which happened to hit Xu Fu's face.
Xu Fu:......
"Stuck - Haah - Haah -" The woman's lungs were no longer filled with water, and she sat up and panted violently, while Xu Fu, who had just saved her, was stunned with a wonderful expression.
Xu Fu turned to look at the woman who "survived the catastrophe" and opened his mouth to say something, but he opened and closed his mouth and said nothing. Finally, he stood up and snorted, feeling even worse. alright.
"Huh? Where have I drifted?" The woman said with a confused look on her face, pulling Xu Fu back who was about to leave.
"Huh? This is the realm of Langya." Xu Fu was stunned by the question and answered subconsciously.
"Human!?" The woman noticed Xu Fu's presence and was startled.
Xu Fu:...?
...
Brothers Xiang Yu and Xiang An rode horses and came to the boundary of Pangshan Mountain again.
"I heard that Surabaya had a new pavilion director named Liu Ji a while ago. Is he the one we know?" The two brothers were not very fast. It was best for them to go slowly and return slowly.
Teaching the two brothers was a torture on both ends, the one who taught was tortured, and the one who studied was tortured, but Xiang Liang felt that they must learn.
"Liu Ji? You mean the Liu Ji who helped us rescue people at the bottom of Pangshan Mountain? The one with the sword?" Xiang Yu touched his chin while riding Wu Zui, recalling what he experienced at Pangshan Mountain.
"Yes, is it him?" Xiang An showed a hint of interest.
"Who knows, what do you care about that?" Xiang Yu shook his head without any interest, "He and we just met by chance. It's hard to say whether we will meet again in the future, but he is indeed a good person."
"Ah..., eh? Pangshan is right ahead, I can already see it." Xiang An pointed to the front and said.
The lush green area ahead is indeed Pangshan Mountain.
Unlike a year ago, this year's Pangshan is no longer bare, but full of green plants and full of vitality.
Seeing Pangshan again, and this Pangshan was even more beautiful, the two brothers fell silent together, looking at the beautiful Pangshan, not knowing what to say.
"Ordinarily, brother." Xiang An lowered his head, with a little regret in his eyes.
"Huh?" Xiang Yu glanced at Xiang An and sighed slightly.
"The tiger must still be guarding there."
Xiang Yu opened his mouth, but did not answer.
The two brothers followed the road and came to the ruins of Zijia Village.
There are not many traces of the ruins left. A considerable part of the village was buried underneath by mudslides. Naturally, the speed of reoccupying a place after humans leave is quite fast.
"Let's go." Xiang Yu glanced at Xiang An, "Let's go to Pangshan Village and have a look. I hope they have not been destroyed by the disaster."
"Yeah." Xiang An didn't say much, just nodded, got on his horse, and walked towards Pangshan Village with Xiang Yu.
But before the two of them left the original boundary of Zijia Village, they heard a burst of shouting.
The shout had no words, but was extremely loud.
On the road in the distance, a team was slowly approaching.
The posture of the team made Xiang Yu and Xiang An freeze on the spot.
There were a total of twenty-four people in the team, all wearing the masks of the Tiger King. Three of them held incense. The people behind carried pigs, sheep and poultry, and held various utensils. They shouted and walked towards Pangshan, bowing every three steps. , walked nine steps and knelt down to kowtow.
The wine festival team didn't pay attention to Xiang Yu and Xiang An on horseback, and just moved forward slowly.
"Tiger Lord Wine Festival..." Xiang An murmured to himself, looking at the wine festival team passing in front of him.
The wine ceremony team passed by Xiang Yu and Xiang An brothers and entered the ruins of Zijia Village.
There was a hint of crying in the shouting, but he was still shouting.
Not long after, the wine festival team entered the mountain and disappeared into the mountain road.
"The leader is Yang Lizheng." Xiang Yu suddenly said this, his eyes still staying in the direction where the wine festival team disappeared.
"Anyone is fine." Xiang An shook his head, "At least the tiger is not protecting a bunch of white-eyed wolves."
"...Let's go back." Xiang Yu smiled and mounted Wu Zui, "This is what we want to see, isn't it?"
