Chapter 46: The Longevity

Li Zhibao took a deep breath and said, "Do you remember the five-story heavy building we discovered before?"

Everyone nodded one after another, and Xiao Ling's face showed a hint of confusion. He couldn't figure out why Li Zhibao suddenly mentioned the five-story heavy building again. Yu Tingting said in his heart: "Old Li, can it be that the content recorded on these six stone tablets is actually related to the five-story heavy building?"

Li Zhibao nodded and said, "Yes, you and Xiao Xiao have had some speculations about the five-story heavy building, but this speculation is half correct."

He said this, took a deep breath and continued: "The five-story Chonglou wants to express and the six inscriptions record only two words, that is, the two symbols I once found in Chonglou."

Yu Tingting was shocked and said, "Eternal Life?"

Li Zhibao nodded.

Wang Lei frowned, took out the pipe he carried with him, took it in his palm and knocked it, saying, "These six stone tablets are all about immortality? If it were just this, why are you so surprised, Mr. Li? Modern science has confirmed that humans desire so-called immortality, which is just a delusion. There is nothing in this world that is eternal and immortal."

He shook his head while saying that, feeling a little disappointed.

What everyone needs now is the whereabouts of Kunlun Xu and Yu Ding, and they are not interested in this vague and ethereal so-called immortality.

Li Zhibao said: "I don't know whether the record of this stone tablet is true or false. I can only tell you the information engraved on it. As for the authenticity, please refer to it carefully."

He paused and continued: "According to the above records, the ancient ancestors were all long-lived people. Later, the meteor fell to the ground and brought disasters. We have always been unable to guess the disaster brought by the meteors, or what the so-called monsters were, but there is a detailed description of this disaster and monsters on these six stone tablets. It turns out that the disaster mentioned by the ancestors of the Yu Dynasty was death."

Hu Shengzhe looked inexplicably and said, "It is not normal for meteors to fall to the ground to cause disasters, and even destroy cities. A large number of people from the Yu Dynasty died because of this. Why do they describe this death as a monster? This makes people a little incomprehensible."

Yu Tingting also showed a look of disappointment on her face and said, "Does the so-called monster that the ancestors of the Yu Dynasty portrayed him refer to human death?"

Originally, like everyone else, she guessed that this monster should be some extremely terrifying existence, and even suspected that it was a Pisces Jade Pendant. Now, according to the records of this stone tablet, the so-called monster is death, which is really unexpected and disappointing.

Xiao Lingyuan also thought that Li Zhibao had discovered some earth-shaking secret, so he looked so serious. After a long time of work, it was just this message that disappointed him.

When Li Zhibao saw everyone's disappointment, he showed no expression on his face. He just took a deep breath and said, "Yes, for these ancestors of the Yu Dynasty, the death incident itself is a monster, and it can even be said to be the most terrifying monster in the world."

Wang Lei pondered: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are all natural laws. Whether it is humans or other animals, the final result cannot escape the word "death". In ancient times, medicine was underdeveloped, medical conditions were backward, and the living environment was harsh. I was afraid that the average life expectancy was very short. Death should be a very common thing. Why did the death caused by a meteor falling to the ground make these ancestors of the Yu Dynasty so scared and shocked, and even portrayed it as a monster in murals and stone tablets, which is really incomprehensible."

Li Zhibao shook his head and said, "No, I don't understand you, because you didn't hear what I just said clearly. I said that these ancient ancestors of the Yu Dynasty were all long-lived people."

"A person who lives long?" Hu Shengzhe touched his forehead and said, "Even if he really lives very long, what does this mean? Of course, for these ancient people, perhaps living beyond forty or fifty years old is already considered a very long life."

Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. After all, after thousands of years, the medical conditions thousands of years ago were completely incomparable to modern times. Unlike now, the average life expectancy has reached seventy or eighty years old, and even a centenarian is not particularly strange. If this is to be changed to ancient times, it is simply unimaginable.

Li Zhibao looked at him deeply and said, "It is a longevity that you cannot imagine, one hundred years, two hundred years, or even hundreds of years."

Hu Shengzhe said in a lost voice: "Impossible!"

The ancestors of the Yu Dynasty thousands of years ago could live for a hundred or even two hundred years? How could this be possible?

Everyone looked at Li Zhibao and showed an unbelievable look.

Li Zhibao smiled bitterly and said, "I can't believe it either, but the inscription is indeed the case. It even mentioned above that Peng Zu, who has lived to be 800 years old, who we should have heard of."

Everyone has heard of Peng Zu, and is known as the person who lived the longest in ancient times. However, as a person with modern education, everyone understands that this is just a folk legend. Everyone will never believe that there are people living in the world who have lived for 800 years.

Li Zhibao said slowly: "The inscription records that the ancestors of the ancient Yu Dynasty all lived forever, and they were all a group of real... immortals."

Li Zhibao took a deep breath and said the last three words. The others couldn't help but take a breath. Suddenly, they understood why Li Zhibao said that they didn't understand what he meant. Now everyone finally understood a little.

"Can immortals, these ancient ancestors, all immortal?" Pang Yan couldn't help but interrupt and showed a shocked look. This discovery can be said to be extremely shocking. There has never been such a statement in ancient books from ancient times to the present. If the engraved in this inscription is real, it would be simply amazing.

In ancient times, humans turned out to be a group of immortal immortals?

"Yes, according to the inscription, ancient ancestors lived and died forever. Until that day, the meteor fell to the ground and brought disaster. This disaster was death. After that day, these immortals who were originally immortal began to die. Peng Zu, who was said to have lived for 800 years, also died at that time."

"So, for these ancient ancestors who lived forever, this disaster of death was that of monsters, which deprived them of the ability to live forever. They became like ordinary humans we are familiar with now, and would get sick and die. You said, if this record was true, how amazing the truth would be. This disaster that deprived humans of immortality was not a monster."
