Chapter 14 A Bright Future After a Dark Period

In the thirteenth year of anchoring, ancient books such as "Shangshu", "Shi" and "Li" were published, and scholars all over the world yearned for that lost history.

In the fifteenth year of anchoring, the emperor was seriously ill. In order to seek the elixir to prolong his life, he sent more than 100,000 troops to excavate ancient tombs everywhere to find traces of the elixir.

Although many court officials had some complaints, they did not write a large-scale letter of opposition.

Unfortunately, the elixir is hard to find. Even if hundreds of ancient tombs were excavated, no traces of it could be seen.

At the end of the year, the emperor died with regret. Before his death, he passed the throne to the King of Langya.

So far, Li Fan finally secretly controlled the world again.

And under the influence of Li Fan, the trend of visiting ancient sites and tombs became more and more popular.

In the seventeenth year of anchoring, a hunter in the mountains won the favor of the Grand Master because he found an ancient tomb. After that, people all over the world became more enthusiastic and crazy about visiting ancient sites. No matter how remote the mountains and forests are, you can see groups of visitors to ancient sites.

Time passed, and it was the 23rd year of anchoring.

Li Fan stood in the Taishi Mansion, looking at the clues obtained by the official and private visits to ancient sites over the years.

Before this, there were only 3,000 years of historical records in this world, totaling 23 dynasties.

As ancient tombs were excavated one after another, the previously lost history was gradually completed.

Before these 23 dynasties, there were 16 dynasties, dating back to about 6,000 to 7,000 years ago.

The earliest dynasty that could be found was called Qi.

"Six or seven thousand years, it's almost the same as the era of the Great Migration." Li Fan said secretly.

Then, he began to order his men to focus on excavating the ancient tombs of the Qi Dynasty.

He also offered a reward to the world, and anyone who could find the ancient tombs of the Qi Dynasty would be granted a title of nobility.

As soon as the news came out, people all over the world rushed to tell each other.

Countless young people set out on the road to visit ancient sites together.

No matter how dusty the history is, it can't withstand such enthusiastic excavation and search by people all over the world.

In the 25th year of anchoring, the tomb of Yi Xing, the first emperor of the Qi Dynasty, was finally found.

Upon hearing the news, Li Fan led his confidants to the scene and blocked the surrounding area.

Over the past decade, the technology of excavating ancient tombs in the Great Xuan Dynasty has developed rapidly, and a very effective tomb excavation plan has been summarized.

Even though the tomb of the first emperor of this world is huge and has countless mechanisms, with the efforts of the people in the Visiting Ancient Camp, a passage leading to the main tomb chamber was dug in just over a month.

After all obstacles were cleared, Li Fan, surrounded by the crowd, entered the interior of the ancient tomb.

The main tomb passage stretches for hundreds of meters, and the walls on both sides are painted with lifelike murals. Although thousands of years have passed, they are still clearly visible.

Li Fan walked slowly and looked at these murals along the way.

The murals are divided into several parts.

In the first part, the protagonist in the painting, Yi Xing, the first emperor of the Qi Dynasty, sits on the top of the mountain. Above the misty white clouds, there are several traces of immortals, who seem to be saying something to him.

In the second part, the darkness representing the disaster is coming. The red color representing blood is sprinkled all over the earth. Under the leadership of Yi Xing, the survivors boarded one ship after another, flew across the vast sea of ​​clouds, encountered countless dangers, and came to a vast plain. Since then, people have settled down here.

In the third part, Yi Xing, with the support of everyone, established himself as emperor and established the Qi Dynasty.

In the fourth part, it is all kinds of trivial matters that happened during Yi Xing's reign.

...

After reading the murals, Li Fan came to the main tomb.

The tomb space is forty or fifty meters high, and several thousand meters long and wide. The top of the tomb seems to imitate the layout of stars, inlaid with thousands of night pearls.

The tomb is a layout imitating a mountain gate somewhere, with mountains standing in a forest, submerged in the sea of ​​clouds.

This sea of ​​clouds is unknown how it was generated, it is only fixed in the tomb, and will not float around. Thousands of years have passed, and it has not dissipated.

There are invisible roads connecting the mountains. Everyone walked along the way, and they were all amazed and praised.

"It is indeed a fairy's method." Li Fan said in his heart.

At the highest peak, there is a simple thatched house, and the fertile fields outside the house have been abandoned.

When everyone walked in, they found that the thatched grass of the thatched house was actually made of countless fine gold threads.

Obviously, this thatched house is Yi Xing's coffin.

At Li Fan's signal, everyone opened the door of the thatched house first.

To everyone's surprise, there was no remains of Yi Xing in the house.

There was only a wooden tablet, standing quietly inside.

On the tablet were several golden characters: "Tomb of Yi Xing, an outer disciple of Taiyan Sect".

Apart from this, there was nothing else.

"It seems that although this person joined the sect called Taiyan Sect, he was always an outer disciple and failed to embark on the immortal path. In the end, he was exiled here by the immortal cultivators."

"Before his death, he was still obsessed with his sect. He did not regard himself as an emperor but always regarded himself as an outer disciple of Taiyan Sect."

"But according to Kou Hong's previous statement, all the sects in the world should have disappeared in the catastrophe before the great migration era. Now it seems that there must be another hidden story."

Li Fan kept thinking in his heart.

"This Yi Xing should be entrusted by the immortal cultivators of Taiyan Sect to be responsible for the great migration of this world. I just don't know if he can find the flying boat used for the migration this time."

The search in the main tomb chamber was fruitless, so Li Fan ordered the ancient camp to dig around it, trying to find clues from the surrounding tombs.

A few days later, a bad news came, which made Li Fan feel extremely angry and helpless.

It turned out that the people of the Visiting Ancient Camp found a record of the words "flying boat" in the list of burial objects in a nearby tomb. Unfortunately, this tomb was robbed a long time ago.

And according to the signs of destruction, the theft was a thousand years ago.

"It's like this again, and it's like this again! Every time I see hope, it's always like a mirage!"

Li Fan was very rare and furious, smashing several items around him.

The people around him were all silent.

After a long time, Li Fan calmed down his complicated mood.

He still ordered the Visiting Ancient Camp to excavate ancient tombs everywhere to find traces of the possible existence of the immortal boat, but he returned to Xuanjing City, as if he had no hope for it.

Ten years passed like this, and time came to the thirty-fifth year of anchoring, but things took a turn for the better.

One day, Li Fan received an urgent report.

"Discovered the tomb of the immortal?" Li Fan was a little stunned, then overjoyed, and asked carefully.

It turns out that although Li Fan has lost interest in visiting ancient sites over the years, the enthusiasm of the people for visiting ancient sites has not declined at all. Countless ancient tombs have been dug on the land of Daxuan.

As those large ancient tombs were excavated, people began to turn their attention to those small ancient tombs that no one had paid attention to before.

A few days ago, a group of young people were suddenly injured by an unknown force while digging an inconspicuous cemetery, and suffered heavy casualties.

The survivors immediately reported the matter to the authorities.

You know, Daxuan has been visiting ancient sites for decades, and even if there are casualties, they are basically caused by mechanisms. It is the first time that such a strange thing has been encountered before the tomb is opened.

The ancient site camp did not dare to slack off and sent people to investigate overnight.

Although many experienced veterans and fully armed soldiers joined forces, they could not shake this small tomb at all.

Everyone was surprised and happy, and hurriedly reported the matter to Li Fan.

Li Fan came upon hearing the news, and after using the immortal miasma, he finally destroyed the unknown force surrounding the tomb.

Entering the tomb, a small wooden boat was prominently displayed among the funerary objects.
