Chapter 206 Self-Contradiction
"They are mainly carnivorous, and hunt other creatures in groups like piranhas."

"But they are also coveted delicacies by other creatures, and are hunted by other creatures throughout their lives."

“What a strange ecological cycle.”

Xu Feng thought to himself.

As soon as he entered the water, he saw many immortal fish under the quiet water.

They are scattered and wander around leisurely.

Then Xu Feng saw their information.

But before he could take a closer look, an immortal fish swimming nearby spotted him and pounced on him with its mouth full of sharp teeth.

Since he hadn't figured out the situation yet, he decided to leave first.

Unexpectedly, the immortal fish suddenly rushed out of the water.

How persistent.

"Master Xu, what is the name of this fish?!"

The fat man asked curiously.

Xu Feng: "They are called immortal fish!"

Xu Feng was too lazy to make up stories, so he introduced this fish to them based on the information he saw.

Of course, he concealed its ability to prolong life.

It's not that he doesn't want to share.

There were too many immortal fish at the bottom of the water for him to catch them all by himself.

But he knew very well that if he told everyone about its effect, everyone here would go crazy.

Greed! It is the ugliest side of human nature.

"The immortal fish?!"

After listening to this, Mr. Gu suddenly cried out in surprise.

He looked at the pool with sparkling eyes: "Could this be the Fountain of Youth?!"

"Fountain of Youth?!"

Everyone, including Xu Feng, was stunned.

Mr. Gu said excitedly: "Yes, it is the legendary Fountain of Youth!"

"I also saw it in some unofficial history book. If you are interested, I can tell you about it."

The fat man sat down with great interest: "Then tell me, it's a good opportunity for us to listen, maybe we can get some clues!"

"It is said that after Qin Shi Huang conquered the six kingdoms and unified the country, he contracted a very strange disease, which is a terminal illness in today's terms. The imperial doctors took turns to diagnose and treat him, but they were all helpless. Qin Shi Huang could only accept his fate and ordered people to find dragon veins to build his mausoleum after his death."

Mr. Gu began to speak slowly.

"At that time, the remnants of the Seven Kingdoms were still causing chaos. Qin Shihuang was afraid that someone would dig up his grave after his death, so he advertised the construction of the Afang Palace."

"In fact, the Afang Palace was just a smokescreen to deceive people. He had no intention of being buried there."

"At this time, the Taoist priest Xu Fu advised the Emperor Qin Shi Huang that the area around Mount Li in the Qinling Mountains was the head of the dragon veins in the world, and that the legendary Mother of Mount Li lived in Mount Li. If a mausoleum could be built on Mount Li, the Qin Empire would surely last for thousands of years!"

"Qin Shi Huang was devoted to seeking immortality. When he heard that the Old Mother of Mount Li was actually in Mount Li, he decided to visit Mount Li himself."

"In order to conceal his whereabouts, Qin Shi Huang did not bring many people with him on this trip. He only brought a few personal guards, disguised as merchants, and sneaked into Mount Li. Mount Li's feng shui is the best in the world, and after Qin Shi Huang entered Mount Li, he knew that the feng shui here was indeed extraordinary, and he immediately decided to build his mausoleum here."

"His only concern was that Mount Li was far away from the capital, and there were big problems with the safety of the mausoleum, so he was slow to make a decision."

"Until he finally decided to visit once more. During this last visit, the First Emperor was attacked by a mysterious beast. All the guards accompanying him were killed. The Emperor, who was blessed with the Dragon, was also attacked by the mysterious beast and was seriously injured."

"Just as he was fleeing, thinking that he would soon die, a woman emerged from the depths of the mist of Mount Li."

"This woman has skin as white as cream and a face as beautiful as a flower, just like a fairy on earth." "Qin Shi Huang once collected beauties from all over the world to fill his harem, but among the three thousand beauties, not one of them could compare to the woman in front of him!"

"In front of this woman, the seriously injured and dying Qin Shi Huang seemed to have a last burst of energy and became energetic. He asked the woman who she was from, but the woman just smiled and ignored him. Then she used a lotus leaf to collect a handful of spring water from somewhere and fed it to Qin Shi Huang."

“A miracle has occurred!”

At this point, Mr. Gu's expression began to become fanatical.

"After Qin Shi Huang drank the spring water, not only did his near-death injuries recover instantly, but even the terminal illness that had been tormenting him for a long time was cured without any medicine. Qin Shi Huang felt as if he had been reborn, and his body was better than ever before."

"He was so surprised that he asked the woman what the spring water she had just given him was."

"The woman just smiled faintly and said nothing. She just waved her sleeves and disappeared in front of Qin Shihuang. However, where she was standing, she left a line of words: The Qishan Fountain of Youth can cure all poisons and diseases, and can bring the dead back to life and give you eternal life."

"Later, Qin Shi Huang sent General Meng Yi to lead tens of thousands of troops into the mountains to search for the woman and the Fountain of Youth, but they found nothing.

"Despite this, Qin Shihuang finally decided to build his mausoleum in Mount Li."

“This is the story of the Fountain of Youth.”

The story ended here, but Mr. Gu still said excitedly: "According to my guess, the woman who saved Qin Shihuang should be the Old Mother of Mount Li, and the spring water she fed Qin Shihuang was the Fountain of Youth."

Wait for him to finish.

Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment.

It’s not because of anything else, it’s just because this story is too fantastic, and has a flavor of wild history or myth.

Only the fat man looked at the pool of water in front of him and couldn't help laughing: "Lao Gu, do you mean that this pool of water is the fountain of youth?"

Mr. Gu nodded: "Yes, it must be this one!!"

"it is good!"

The fat man walked to the pond and quickly filled a kettle with water.

Then he said, "If the Fountain of Youth is really as mysterious as you say, if I drink it now, will my injuries be healed?"

Mr. Gu nodded frantically: "Of course!"

Fatty dislikes him the most.

Seeing him like this, the fat man felt unhappy. In order to hit this old guy, he didn't care about the quality of the water or whether it was clean or not. He tilted his head back and gulped down a few big gulps of the water in the kettle.

Then he opened his hands and chuckled, "Then now is the time to witness a miracle."

Everyone stared at the fat man.

Someone is curious.

Some people hope.

Some people are disdainful.

Some people are calm.

Xu Feng didn't even look at the fat man. He looked at the pool of water and there was no information displayed, which meant that it was just ordinary water.

Moreover, he had actually read the story of Qin Shi Huang and the Old Mother of Mount Li.

It’s not as beautiful as Mr. Gu said.

Thinking of the dangers in the pool, in order to prevent more people from taking risks, Xu Feng said, "Okay, this is impossible. If the Fountain of Youth really can make people immortal, Qin Shi Huang would not have died. He drank from the Fountain of Youth."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Then it dawned on me.

Right!

Qin Shi Huang drank from the Fountain of Youth. If the Fountain of Youth really had the effect of granting immortality, Qin Shi Huang would not have died.

He no longer needs to build a mausoleum or look for the fountain of youth.

Isn't this a contradiction?!
