Zhang Hong frowned, feeling that the far traveler in front of him was not simple.
He was fishing in the South China Sea and had little knowledge of the world, but he could also tell that this guy did not dress like a simple far traveler.
And the guy in front of me is a god.
Although his aura is far inferior to his own, there is no doubt that he is a god.
"You came from Penglai, that's a long way?"
Penglai Island appeared in the northern meridian of the sea. It was also a legendary place in this era. Of course, there were no gods on it, but only a lot of ancestors living in the sea.
Long Boguo did an illegal fishing thing, that is, there are five mountains on the sea, namely Penglai, Fangzhang, Yingzhou, Daiyu, and Yuanqiao. However, the Wuxian Mountain is a rootless mountain that rises and falls with the rise and fall of the waves. Swinging everywhere, the ancestor tribes above begged the Emperor of Heaven to do a small favor...
The Emperor of Heaven said yes, and then asked the Beihai God to send fifteen giant turtles to bear on the five mountains. He made a rule that the shifts should be changed every 60,000 years. He also said that this was all trivial and just a small effort.
However, in Long Boguo, the famous giant among the giants, there was a fisherman in this group who had nothing to do and went fishing in the North Sea and East China Sea. He caught six in one breath and brought them back to make soup. The two mountains Yuanqiao and Yuanqiao lost their support and drifted to the North Pole and sank.
"Liezi·Tang Wen" even exaggeratedly said that there were hundreds of millions of immortals and sages who fled. Of course, this was an exaggeration. Did these hundreds of millions frighten the dead in the tombs and run away?
Of course, the fishing guy who did this bad thing was also punished. When the Emperor saw that this hero's stats were a little abnormal, his mother was killing people below, and he immediately started to weaken it.
Therefore, Penglai Island, or the five overseas mountains, are still very famous in this era.
Shuhai said: "Yes, Penglai is at the intersection of the waves of the East China Sea and the waves of the North Sea. I saw the Giant Spirit's Ao, carrying the Penglai Mountain on its back, dancing and playing in the sea."
"That mountain..."
"The mountains are 30,000 miles high and circumferential, the tops are flat for 9,000 miles, and the distance between the mountains is 70,000 miles... There are many gold and jade on the mountains, and the wild animals on the mountains are all white. Pearl and Kan trees are everywhere, The fruit is beautiful and delicious, and the locals say that eating it will make you immortal.”
Shuhai explained the surroundings and special products of Penglai Mountain. People around him looked at each other in confusion. Some people said curiously: "I have never been out of this land in my life, but businessmen from the adult country have seen it a few times. Penglai Mountain , is it really as good as you say?"
Shu Hai smiled and said: "It's not that good at all. Think about it, everyone, the land under your feet is actually being carried by a turtle. How can you feel safe?"
"No, this is the fruit."
Shuhai took out the fruit wrapped in the animal skin. The fruit had been bumpy with Shuhai for so long, but it still looked pleasing to the eye.
Zhang Hong narrowed his eyes and stared for a long time. People around him came over, and someone asked strangely: "Is this the fruit that can make you immortal after eating it?"
"Isn't this just an orange?"
Someone was making noises, but Zhang Hong frowned again and said to Shuhai: "This result is not simple."
People around were confused, but Zhang Hong explained: "Oranges are harvested in autumn, and now it is summer!"
After saying this, everyone was suddenly shocked, and Shuhai threw the "orange" to Zhang Hong. Zhang Hong was not polite, peeled it open and ate part of it, and gave another part to Akafang's people from the mill. , someone next to me said: "Will you become immortal after eating this?"
"Haha, who knows!"
Shuhai laughed loudly and said to them: "Let's wait until we are old to talk about it! Anyway, when I go to Penglai, the people there will also have their ancestral sites to worship!"
After saying this, everyone burst into laughter. It turned out that the legendary Penglai was like this. If one really ate immortality, how could there be an ancestral land for sacrifices?
The sacrificial place is the burial ground.
"tasty!"
Zhang Hong gave an evaluation, and at this time, a member of the Chifang family said: "Oranges grown in Huainan are called tangerines, and those grown in Huaibei are called tangerines. The oranges from Penglai Island taste quite good... Could it be that overseas oranges are not only big, but also Is it sweeter? How strange!”
"Really, as Wu said, different regions and climates are due to different water and soil, just like Shu. Random cultivation in the north can be worth our hard work for a year!"
"Cereals and crops have different properties and characteristics depending on where they are produced. Therefore, natural selection causes all kinds of grains to be different..."
People started discussing happily, but it caught Shu Hai's attention, so he asked with a smile: "What, do you actually have anyone here who understands the difference between water and soil?"
After saying this, someone said unhappy: "What do you mean by this!"
Shuhai smiled and said: "I am a merchant, a traveler, and a traveler. Some people also call me 'Diji'."
Zhang Hong was surprised: "Are you a mountain master?"
The so-called mountain master is a person from Yu. He is responsible for the names of mountains and forests, distinguishes their goods and their advantages and disadvantages, and then awards them to the country so that he can obtain the rare things.
Shuhai shook his head: "I have never been a Shanyu teacher, but I will not be as dusty as me! But the wizard you talk about is a Shanyu teacher, right?"
"I don't have a name for a person like me. I do Shan Yu's work, but it's better to call me 'Di Qian'."
"The earth is the place where all things are displayed; Jin is the sorcerer who travels far away."
A warrior from the Akakata clan said: "We have also been relocated, so we know a little about the geography of mountains and rivers."
However, Shuhai said: "It's more than just a little understanding! Water and soil are different. These four words are not something ordinary people can understand. Tribes in the world often only see local grains, fruits, and prey after they migrate. They cannot associate oranges with tangerines, at most they think they are similar fruits."
Oranges and tangerines are indeed not the same thing, but they both belong to the "Rutaceae" family.
Just like the Brassicaceae family, there are rape flowers and brassicas. They seem to be out of reach, but they are actually distant relatives.
When Shuhai heard what Yu Zai said about "Huainan and Huaibei", he immediately guessed that this wizard must have understood the fundamental secrets of crop growth. In other words, he must have great research on the land.
This made Shuhai a little interested. Geographers, this profession is extremely rare no matter what era it is. There are only a few people that I can meet and talk to.
I like hearing geographers say that everyone likes it. After all, they have traveled north and south, climbed up snowy mountains and crossed the sea, walked through deserts and rainforests. However, if many people really want to do this work, especially if they did this work in ancient times, it would definitely be Not many people are willing to do it.
Of course, when Shuhai listened to the people around him talking about the flood control projects that Yuzai had done here, his expression completely changed.
"Who controls this water? Only he can monitor it?"
The member of the Akafang family was stared at by Shu Hai and said in a daze: "Look, walking a little further south from this farmer's market, there are high hills in the area, which is Nanqiu...ah, this is my home..."
"The witch is there."
