Wu Yulin went to bed, but Wu Yi couldn't fall asleep.
From the moment he learned that Wangsi Town was the testing ground of Black Sun Unit 731, he fell into deep memories.
The history of Wumen is a history of division.
The first split was the split of the medical family, which led to the divergence of witch doctors. From then on, witches were witches and doctors were doctors. However, although the medical family and the witchcraft family fought openly and secretly for countless years, great and respectable figures emerged from each other.
However, the second split of the Wumen gave birth to a force that was so heinous that the Wumen regretted it endlessly.
If it hadn't been for that split, the history of China might have had a different look...
210 BC, midsummer, East China Sea.
"Wow...wow...wow..." The waves gently lapped the coast, making waves of waves.
There were two figures standing on the pier, looking at the workers busy loading ships not far away. One of them was a military general in military uniform, and the other was a middle-aged man with a white face and a long beard. His expression was solemn and his brows were furrowed, as if he had something on his mind.
"Brother Xu Fu, are you still worried about the big fish in the sea? Don't worry, haven't we shot the mackerel blocking the road before?" The general said haha when he saw the middle-aged man's serious expression.
"I have to thank General Fan for that." The middle-aged man Xu Fu forced a forced smile.
What he was worried about was the big fish blocking his way. In fact, there was no big fish blocking his way. It was just an excuse for him to delay going to sea.
A few years ago, he led a group of people to go to sea for the first time to find elixir for Emperor Qin. He drifted on the sea for three years but found nothing. When he came back, although Emperor Qin did not convict him, his disappointment was palpable.
In the past two years, as Emperor Qin grew older, his body continued to become ill, his temper became irritable, and he longed for the elixir of immortality.
The search for medicine at sea failed. Emperor Qin found many people to refine medicine for him. Many people from the witch sect, doctors and Yin and Yang sects were recruited into the palace. There were more than a dozen big cauldrons with blazing flames all year round, and thousands of kilograms of medicinal materials were consumed every day.
However, over the past few years, no medicine for immortality has been refined, but quite a few medicines that will kill you if you eat them have been refined.
Emperor Qin's patience was getting worse and worse. Hundreds of warlocks were killed the year before last and the year before last. The Wumen were the most unlucky. Even many classics that had been passed down for thousands of years were burned!
Xu Fu was also a member of the Wumen and was almost implicated. Fortunately, he was resourceful. He said that he had discovered traces of the fairy mountain last time when he was looking for medicine, so he survived and even got a second chance to go to sea.
But Xu Fu knew that this was probably his last chance. If he couldn't find the elixir again, his fate would be the same as those of his fellow witch sects, being thrown into a pit and buried alive!
Going to sea with such pressure, one can imagine his mood, and how could he have a smile on his face?
At this time, there was a noise in the distance. Xu Fu and General Fan turned their heads to look. They saw a group of young men in white appearing on the beach as far as they could see. They were chatting, laughing, chasing and playing. Some of them seemed to be the third generation.
Once I saw the sea, I danced with excitement.
"Are these boys?" General Fan asked with great interest.
Xu Fu nodded: "They are all collected from several nearby counties. Some of them have never seen the sea."
"Then after we go to sea tomorrow, they will definitely endure it." General Fan chuckled, "When I was young, I went to sea for the first time and I vomited like crazy!"
Xu Fu said nothing. He looked deeply at the group of young people who were playing and playing and seemed to have no idea what sadness was. He didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
The next day was an auspicious day, and everything went well. The big ships had already been prepared, and they could travel far as long as the wind picked up.
Xu Fu stood on the ship's roof, letting the breeze blow his clothes. He watched five hundred boys and five hundred girls carrying their own luggage and boarding the ship with uneasy expressions. He couldn't help but feel mixed emotions in his heart.
.
Only he himself knows that if he leaves this time, he may never come back again.
And these five hundred boys and girls were not there to welcome the immortals at all. They were all young men with certain talents in practicing witchcraft that he selected from several nearby counties.
Xu Fu was well aware of Emperor Qin's cruelty. As for whether there were immortals in the world, he was not sure. If he could find an immortal to get the elixir this time, that would be great, but if he couldn't find it, Xu Fu
Definitely won't come back again.
He has never forgotten that the last time he returned from overseas, he knelt down in front of Emperor Qin fearfully and listened to the angry scolding. At that time, he was like a piece of fish on the chopping board. As long as Emperor Qin gave an order, he would do it.
Shattered into thousands of pieces!
He had never forgotten that several of his close disciples had gone wrong in refining the medicine and killed the person who was testing it. Emperor Qin thought that they had deliberately murdered him. One of them was quartered by five horses, and the others were involved with those who criticized the government.
Together with the warlocks, they were thrown directly into the pit and buried alive!
Emperor Qin was a genius who swept across the empire and dominated the world, but his tyranny was unprecedented. Even if Xu Fu was brave enough not to be afraid of the storms on the sea, in the face of Emperor Qin's rage, he felt like a bird on the sea.
Butterflies can break their wings at any time!
Xu Fu was unwilling to give in. He did not want to die inexplicably because of Emperor Qin's moodiness, nor did he want to be buried alive in the cold soil like other Wumen disciples.
He had already made two plans for this trip to sea.
"If it doesn't work, let me spread the seeds of witchcraft overseas. But sooner or later, I will come back!" Xu Fu looked at the last pair of boys and girls walking onto the ship, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a trace of
A helpless but determined smile.
The ship sailed away, and General Fan waved his arms on the shore and shouted loudly: "Master Xu Fu, I am waiting for you here. In three years, I hope you will come back with the fairy medicine!"
Xu Fu waved to General Fan, glanced back at the mountains and rivers of Qin, and then turned around to look at the vast sea without nostalgia.
Since then, Xu Fu has disappeared into history. Neither the Qin State nor the Wumen seem to remember the existence of this man. It was not until 1400 that his name was once again followed by a "divine wind".
Back to the perspective of history.
But that's another story.
Wu Yi looked at the map in front of him, with the history of Wumen echoing in his mind, and his mood became a little solemn.
If this piece of land is really what he thought and was chosen by Qing Yun Hui for that reason, then what exactly does Qing Yun Hui want to do?
Their ambitions are a bit too big!
Wu Yi couldn't help but feel a chill despite his unique skills. He made up his mind to go to Wangsi Town to have a look tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Wu Yi asked Liu Di to borrow a shabby jeep, with Wu Nan as the driver. He and Xue Zhen sat in the back seat, and the three of them went straight to Wangsi Town.
The journey was smooth at first, with smooth asphalt roads, but things changed obviously after entering Nanjiang District.
Nanjiang District is the largest and newest district in Songjiang City. It is said to be an urban area but is actually just the merger of more than a dozen villages and towns that were originally located in the west of Songjiang City. After being merged into Songjiang City, the development speed here has not kept up.
Except for the construction of new buildings in some places near the old urban area of Songjiang, other places have almost remained as they were before. For the local people, life seems to have not changed at all.
As soon as they entered Nanjiang District, Wu Nan complained: "Why is this road like a dog chewing it? Isn't there anyone taking care of it?"
Wu Yi looked out of the car window and saw that the road was very narrow, only big enough for two cars at most, and the road was very uneven, with jagged potholes everywhere, and even ice and snow remaining in many places, making driving difficult.
It becomes increasingly difficult. If there are cars on both sides, you need to be very careful, otherwise traffic accidents may easily occur.
"This place is simply a barren mountain... not as good as our village." Xue Zhen muttered.
But half an hour later, Wu Nan and Xue Zhen realized that they had complained too early.
The further we drove west, the road became worse and worse. Fortunately, Wu Yi borrowed a jeep with a relatively high chassis. Although it was a bit shabby, it was still four-wheel drive. Otherwise, it would not have been able to cope with such a dustpan-like road.
Sitting in the car, Wu Yi and Xue Zhen were like riding on a boat. They were thrown up and fell down again, enjoying the fun that can only be experienced in an amusement park.
"Oh my God, what the hell is this place?" Xue Zhen was so shaken that he almost vomited.
Wu Nan also said with a bitter face: "Master Yi, I think the shock absorber will be broken after one more trip. Don't forget to replace it when you get back, otherwise you won't be able to return the car!"
After complaining all the way, the car finally drove into Wangsi Town.
As soon as he entered the town, Wu Yi understood what his father said last night. The town was really desolate, with only one decent-looking street, but most of the shops on both sides were deserted, and there were not even a few people on the street.
This was still the center of the town, and Wu Yi doubted whether he would be able to see any living people if he went to the surrounding areas!
"Stop the car." Wu Yi ordered.
When Wu Nan parked the car, Wu Yidao said: "You two just take a walk around the town. Xue Zhen, take a good look with your eyes. If you find anything wrong, write it down. I'll go for a walk around the area. I'll be there at twelve o'clock.
...Meet at that Venus restaurant."
Wu Nan and Xue Zhen took the order and strolled towards the town. Wu Yi went in another direction, leaving the town and walking towards a small hill not far away.
After climbing up the hill, Wu Yi looked around and his face became very ugly.
"Damn, it really is a Nine-Yin Jedi Land! It's simply a top-notch yin land where whatever you sow will die, and neither humans nor animals can survive! No wonder Black Sun 731 chose this place as a test site."
The more Wu Yi looked at them, the more frightened he became, and finally his eyes fell on the two old archways in the center of Wangsi Town.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Yi took out his mobile phone and wanted to make a call, but after taking a closer look, he discovered that there was no communication signal on this hill!
Helpless, Wu Yi could only walk down the hill towards the town. After taking a few steps, his eyes suddenly flashed and he turned around to look.
On another hilltop not far away, the light reflected by the lens passed by, and there seemed to be someone observing the nearby terrain. (To be continued...)
