I Can’t Play This Game Anymore

"Phoenix stewed in a copper pot?"

Song Qian and the other three looked confused when they heard this.

Eggplant responded:

"I've only heard of goose stewed in an iron pot, and what the hell is a phoenix stewed in a copper pot? Ji Han, please stop being so pretentious."

Ji Han asked Chen Ke to turn off the projection first to avoid attracting the magical birds outside, and then began to tell everyone the content on the black stone tablet.

In fact, what is described above is an experience.

According to the content on the stone tablet, His Majesty the First Emperor followed the advice of the alchemists and sent this army to search for the elixir of immortality.

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

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

So he led people to search on Changbai Mountain. Later, he discovered cave cracks in the mountain, and followed all the way down to find the ruins of the ancient city above the magma.

When they came, the city was already deserted, leaving only this strange city on top of the magma in Changbai Mountain.

Even so, the city was built according to the Bagua, and there are twin flames of yin and yang always burning in the middle pit.

Chen Ke said curiously:

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

Ji Han added:

"And the people here were already missing when we arrived. This is very similar to the situation in Crescent Moon Spring. Blackstone Mountain appeared in both places."

Song Qian guessed:

"Could it be that the people of the Liu family were the first to build this city? To facilitate the protection of the divine pillar? Then they gradually gave up and finally left like the ancestors of the Liu family?"

Eggplant shook his head and said:

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

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

"The person who first built this place is not yet known. We still base ourselves on the present. Some of the content later may give us hints."

Therefore, this army also judged that the person who built the mansion in such a place must be an immortal, and the yin and yang fire in the pit must be used to refine elixirs, so it searched nearby for immortal elixirs that could lead to immortality.

But I just found a lot of black rocks next to the yin and yang fire in the pit. I don't know what they are used for. If I throw them into the fire, the black rocks will soon turn into fly ash.

In the end, nothing was found. Just when the army was about to leave, a magical bird flew out of the magma under the city.

This bird spreads its wings to cover the sky and the sun, and is covered in golden flames, soaring over the city.

Seeing that this bird must be a sacred object, it will definitely have the effect of immortality.

So this troop began to hunt this sacred bird.

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

Hearing the eggplant, he stretched out his thumb:

"That's awesome. You dared to do this. You are truly a soldier of Great Qin. What's the result? Did you fail?"

It is estimated that Eggplant saw that the divine bird just now was unharmed, so he concluded that the hunt by Da Qin's soldiers failed.

But Ji Han shook his head and said:

"At first, their attacks with ordinary weapons had no effect. After the sacred bird was injured, the wounds quickly recovered as the flames burned, which also caused them to cause many casualties."

But later, these Da Qin soldiers decided to fight fire with fire, lighting their weapons with the yin and yang fire in the pit before attacking.

To their surprise, even this divine bird was afraid of the two-color fire in the pit, and the areas injured by the two-color fire could not recover immediately. In the end, with huge sacrifices, they finally captured the divine bird and locked it up.

By consuming the purple blood shed by this divine bird, not only did the wounds on the surviving soldiers and hunters heal, but even the older ones among them returned to their twenties and thirties.

Seeing that this thing had such miraculous effects, after everyone shared the food, they thought of taking it back to Xianyang to ask for merit and offer 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, and someone actually found it.

But looking at 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 of giving away some of the divine blood first.

But the further away from the magma city, the more they felt the heat in their bodies. At first, everyone thought it was because they were not fully accustomed to the blood of the mythical beast.

Until someone left the underground of Changbai Mountain Tianchi 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 after drinking the blood of this sacred bird, they could never leave this place again.

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

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

"That's right."

"If that's the case, do you think the first people who built this city here settled here because they couldn't leave after drinking blood?"

Eggplant patted his thigh and said:

"That makes sense!"

Song Qian also nodded and said:

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

Ji Han continued:

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

So the surviving soldiers and hunters began to look for ways. Of course, they hope to be immortal, but they hope to get out, otherwise the immortality here will be endless pain for them.

The dark life underground and the unfilled sense of emptiness made these people suffer.

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 forever and got out.

So two ideas were proposed: the first is those black stones. There must be something wrong 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 cannot achieve perfect immortality after drinking the blood of this divine beast, they should find a way to eat it or refine it into elixir, so that everyone's immortality state may be perfect.

Chen Ke nodded and said:

"I have to say that the leader's direction is correct. If I were faced with this situation, I would have to do the same. Brother Ji, what was the result?"

Ji Han hesitated:

"How should I put it? The result was a failure, but not a complete failure."

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

And they also discovered the characteristics of those black mountain stones: burning with yin and yang double fire will turn into ashes, but if the black mountain stones are burned with ordinary flames, they will turn into a transparent gelatinous liquid.

This liquid seems to have some kind of hypnotic property. Relying on their immortal bodies, they actually tried to seal people in it.
