I can't play this game

When the situation became more and more critical, Chen Ke slowly stretched out his arm from the rear window outside the stone house and released his drone.

Then through conscious control, let the drone fly out directly.

Afraid that he would not be able to attract this magical bird, he turned on all the lights on the drone, played "Two Tigers", and controlled the drone to fly in the opposite direction at maximum speed.

Sure enough, the divine bird caught the trick, raised its head and rushed in that direction.

Looking at the flames soaring into the sky and feeling the air waves brought up, everyone knew that the drone would be overtaken and destroyed within a short time.

However, this has left enough time for everyone to respond, and the four hurriedly got up and walked towards the inner hall of the stone house.

The inner room was relatively closed, and it was completely invisible from the outside, so everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Han is not a person who holds grudges, he just dragged Chen Ke over and locked up the monkey several times.

"Flash, strobe, strobe! You nearly killed me, boy!"

"Accident, accident, Brother Ji is really an accident."

Afraid of bringing the divine bird back again, Ji Han didn't dare to make too many moves.

Eggplant said in surprise:

"Fuck, that thing just now is a phoenix, right? This is the first time I've seen it. Does this thing really exist?"

Chen Ke rubbed his neck and replied:

"Not necessarily. There are also many gods and birds related to fire in myths and legends. For example, the pet of Vulcan, the sign of fire: Bi Fang."

Song Qian at the side confirmed that Ji Han was indeed fine just now, and reminded:

"Didn't the text on the stone tablet just now be photographed? The text recorded on it may explain this thing."

Chen Ke was right when he thought about it, and hastily projected the photos he just took on the wall of the stone house.

Because he was afraid of being discovered again by the divine bird just now, the projection range was very small, only enough for four people to see it.

But after seeing the obscure text, everyone also thought that as long as Ji Han could read it, it would be fine.

This writing is different from what I have seen before, but it is a little closer to modern Chinese characters than the writing in Crescent Lake and Hai Haiguixu, and I was able to write it later.

Afraid that the divine bird would come back again, Ji Han didn't talk nonsense, and hurriedly used the electronic wave reading method to translate the text in the projection.

"Damn it, people here are crazy."

"Brother Han, what does it say?"

"It's a recipe."

When Eggplant heard this, his eyes widened.

"Recipe? What recipe?"

"Phoenix stewed in a copper pot."

Chapter 217 Imperfect Longevity

"Phoenix stewed in a copper pot?"

Song Qian and the three of them were bewildered.

Eggplant responded:

"I've only heard of a big goose being stewed in an iron pot, but what the hell is a phoenix stewed in a copper pot? Ji Han, you boy, don't be fooled."

Ji Han asked Chen Ke to turn off the projection first, so as not to attract the magical birds outside, and then began to tell everyone the content on the black stone tablet.

In fact, the above description is an experience.

According to the content on the stele, His Majesty Shi Huang followed the advice of the alchemist and sent this army to search for the medicine of longevity.

When this army arrived at the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain, under the leadership of dozens of local hunters, they discovered something strange under the Tianchi Lake.

Later, a huge black stone was found in the water. The strange color of the stone made the army leader think that there must be something to gain here.

So I took people to search on Changbai Mountain, and later found cracks in the cave in the mountain, and found the ruins of the ancient city above the magma along the way.

When they came, the city was already empty, leaving only this strange city above the magma in Changbai Mountain.

Even so, the city was built according to the gossip, and there are yin and yang double flames burning in the middle pit all the time.

Chen Ke asked curiously:

"Good guy, there was such a city built before the arrival of the soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty. How long ago did the first people build it? And it was built on magma. Is there really a prehistoric civilization?"

Ji Han added:

"And the people here have disappeared when they came here. This is very similar to the situation in Crescent Lake. Black Rock Mountain appeared in both places."

Song Qian guessed:

"Could it be that the Liu family was the first to build this city? For the convenience of protecting the divine pillar? Later, like the ancestors of the Liu family, they gradually gave up and finally left?"

Eggplant shook his head and said:

"No, then there's no need for people from the Liu family to guard the crater, right?"

Ji Han raised his hand to end the discussion and said:

"The person who built this place first cannot be tested for the time being. We are still based on the present, and some content in the future may have hints for us."

Therefore, this army also judged that the man who built the mansion in such a place must be an immortal, and the yin and yang fire in the pit must be used for alchemy, so he looked for immortals nearby that could live forever.

However, a lot of black rocks were found next to the yin and yang fires in the pit. I don't know what they are for. If they were thrown into the fire, the black rocks would quickly turn into fly ash.

In the end, they found nothing, and just when the army was about to leave, a divine bird flew out of the magma below the city.

The bird spread its wings to cover the sky and covered the sun, and was covered with golden flames, soaring above the city.

Seeing that this bird must be a fetish, it definitely has the effect of longevity.

So the army began to hunt and kill the divine bird.

The divine bird mentioned here should be the one the four of them saw just now.

Eggplant gave a big thumbs up:

"Beautiful, you dare to do this. You really deserve to be a soldier of Daqin. What happened? Did you fail?"

It is estimated that Eggplant saw that the divine bird was unharmed just now, so it was judged that Daqin's soldiers failed to hunt it down.

But Ji Han shook his head and said:

"In the beginning, they used ordinary weapons to attack. It was really ineffective. After the divine bird was injured, the wound quickly recovered with the flames, which also caused many casualties."

But later these Daqin soldiers decided to use fire against fire, lighting their weapons with the yin and yang fires in the pit before attacking.

To their surprise, even the divine bird was afraid of the two-color fire in the pit, and the places injured by the two-color fire could not be recovered immediately, so they finally took down the divine bird and locked it up with huge sacrifices.

By eating the purple blood from this sacred bird, not only the wounds of the surviving soldiers and hunters were healed, but even the elderly among them returned to their 30s and [-]s.

Seeing that this thing has such a miraculous effect, after sharing the food, everyone thought of taking it back to Xianyang to ask for merit, and offering it to His Majesty in exchange for glory and wealth.

Hearing this, Song Qian, Chen Ke and Eggplant also widened their eyes.

After all, immortality and rejuvenation is what everyone hopes for, but someone has found it.

But judging by the current situation, something must have happened to them later.

It was inconvenient to bring the injured divine bird back, so the soldiers and hunters thought about sending out part of the divine blood first.

But the farther they were from the city of magma, the hotter they felt inside their bodies. At first, everyone thought it was because they hadn't fully adapted to the blood of the beast.

Until someone left the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain and reached the ground, everyone watched helplessly as the bodies of those who went out were burned to ashes in the snow.

After being shocked, they realized that they could never leave this place after drinking the blood of the divine bird.

At this time, Chen Ke suddenly had an idea, raised his hand and said:

"Wait a minute, Brother Ji, that means they can't return to the ground after drinking the blood of the divine bird, and they feel more comfortable near the magma?"

"Yes."

"That being said, do you think the people who first built this city here also settled here because they drank blood and couldn't leave?"

Eggplant slapped his thigh and said:

"It makes sense!"

Song Qian also nodded and said:

"The yin and yang bipolar fire here was created by the previous people, and it is harmful to the divine bird. It is indeed possible to say so, but since theirs can also live forever, why did they disappear?"

Ji Han continued:

"Your thoughts are the same as those of these soldiers. They feel that the people who settled here before drank the blood of the god bird before, so they settled on the magma."

So the soldiers and hunters who survived began to look for ways. Of course they hoped to live forever, but they hoped to go out, otherwise the immortality here would be endless pain for them.

These people are tormented by the dark life in the underground and the feeling of unfillable emptiness.

In the end, it was the leader of the soldiers who stabilized everyone's emotions. He analyzed that the missing people here must have found a way to live longer and went out.

So I put forward two ideas: the first is those black stones, there must be problems with those stones placed around the fire pit, so everyone began to study the relationship between those black stones and flames.

On the other hand, since everyone has drank the blood of this divine beast, we still can't achieve perfect immortality, so we should find a way to eat it or refine it into a elixir, so that everyone's immortal state may be able to achieve perfection.

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"I have to say that the leader's direction is correct. If I am faced with this situation, I can only do this. Brother Ji, what will be the result?"

Ji Han hesitated for a moment:

"How should I put it? It turned out to be a failure but not a complete failure."

In order to refine this beast into a pill or absorb it perfectly, these people rely on the heat of underground ore and magma to forge the giant stove and utensils in front of us.

And they also discovered the characteristics of those black mountain stones: burning them with yin and yang fires will turn them into ashes, but if they burn them with ordinary flames, they will turn into transparent colloidal liquid.

This liquid seems to have some kind of hypnotic properties, relying on their immortal body, they actually tried to seal people in it.

Chapter 218

Eggplant was shocked when he heard that:

"Are they crazy? Wouldn't life be worse than death if they were sealed in that kind of resin-like object?"

Ji Han shook his head and explained:

"They are not that stupid. After the experiment, the leader told everyone that once the person is sealed in, he will lose consciousness completely. He will not regain consciousness until the crystal is broken from the outside and the person is released. So it is equivalent to sleeping in it for a while. Sleep."

At that time, the smelting conditions were not perfect, and it took a long time to build such oven racks and metal utensils.

And for a long time in the dark underground, many of them are close to collapse, especially those local hunters who have not been trained. They feel that they have offended the gods here, so they have been punished.

But they were unwilling to go out to die, so the army leader suggested that their collapsed people should be sealed in this liquid, and released after a solution was found, otherwise they would have to jump into the magma.

Song Qian showed a look of horror:

"But when we came down from the Black Rock Mountain, the corpses inside seemed to have awakened, and looking at it like that, they seemed unable to leave the glass-like crystal."

Eggplant nodded and said:

"Obviously they still haven't thoroughly researched the Black Mountain Stone. Judging from the current situation, even if it becomes an amber coffin, as long as it is next to the Black Mountain Stone, those people who are sealed in the crystal will undergo some changes. Strictly speaking, this This change could take a long time, so they didn't notice it at the time."

Chen Ke couldn't help shivering when he heard this:

"Could it be that it took a long time to find out that I regained consciousness? My God, wouldn't that be torture to death, looking outside every day and being unable to come out, it's suffocating to think about."

Song Qian continued:

"Even if they didn't find a way and rescued them, then there must have been an accident?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"I don't know if people outside have found a way to rescue them, but there is a clear sentence engraved on the bottom of the stone tablet: Don't seal the soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty in, and don't rescue the people who are sealed in the stone. So you say, is there any other way?" A possibility?"

Eggplant and Ji Han looked at each other, and said coldly:

"The leader of those soldiers knew that there was a problem with the black stone? Did he seal those hunters in on purpose?"

Ji Han nodded and said:

"I'm just guessing, because when we came down, we obviously saw that there was no corpse of a Daqin soldier inside, and all of them were hunters. In addition to the words on the stone tablet, I guessed that they must have lied to those hunters, and then Seal them here completely."
