After all, there are some things that even he doesn't know!
Li Yang said:
"Feng Shigu was indeed addicted to tomb raiding. In the capital, while he was in charge of building the imperial mausoleum, he couldn't resist raiding tombs at the same time!"
"Until one day he robbed the tomb of a noblewoman named Liu in the capital!"
"This Liu family member is a descendant of Liu Bingzhong, a master of numerology. His tomb contained many numerology texts, which were looted by Guanshan Taibao!"
"Although Feng Shigu acted meticulously, there were too many people and too many eyes in the capital, and the news still leaked out, which aroused the wrath of the Liu family descendants!"
"Some members of the Liu family also hold official positions in the imperial court. Although they lacked evidence against Feng Shigu, they directly framed him in order to seek revenge!"
"Feng Shigu was well-versed in the arts of Yin and Yang. Knowing that he would likely face trouble if he stayed in the capital, he asked the emperor for permission to resign and return to his hometown. In his spare time, he would go to the Wushan Valley to steal hanging coffins!"
"However, Feng Shigu, relying on his great abilities, violated the ancestral precepts and plundered the largest ancient tomb in Coffin Mountain—the Tomb of the Black Sheep King!"
"But after returning from tomb raiding, Feng Shigu's personality changed drastically. He began to claim himself as a local immortal and used sorcery to bewitch people, recruiting a large number of believers to build a village for him!"
"Do you know what Feng Shigu saw in the tomb of the King of Wuyang?"
Everyone pricked up their ears and stared at Li Yang with shining eyes.
Fatty Wang couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Li, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly, what did Feng Shigu discover in the Sheep King's Tomb?"
Sun Xuewu was the one who listened most attentively.
Although he knew some of the inside stories of the Immortal Village, he didn't know much about this particular part.
At the same time, he felt a sense of awe towards Li Yang!
It's terrifying that this young man even knows such top-secret information!

Only after receiving the happiness points from Sun Xuewu did Li Yang continue, satisfied:
"The King of Wuyang was extremely cruel and tyrannical in his lifetime. In the end, he was killed and his head was cut off, so he was buried with a golden head on his head!"
"Feng Shigu led the Guanshan Taibao to open the coffin of the Black Sheep King, but suddenly, the Black Sheep King's incarnation, the Headless Knight, went on a killing spree, and several Guanshan Taibao members who were in the first line of fire died on the spot!"
"Feng Shigu was shocked, but fortunately he was indeed quite skilled. He used his sword to cut the Black Sheep King into eight pieces and then sealed his remains in a bronze cauldron!"
"After that, Feng Shigu began to study the information recorded on the tortoise shells, jade discs, and bronze artifacts in the tomb of the King of Wuyang, which finally allowed him to comprehend a path to immortality and ascension!"
"Therefore, in order to ascend to immortality, Feng Shigu began to build the Earth Immortal Village!"

……
After hearing the story, everyone felt thoroughly satisfied, finding it perfect as a snack with drinks, and even taking a few extra bites of the food on the table.
But Sun Xuewu, standing to the side, was stunned and fell silent.
Shirley Yang nestled beside Li Yang and said, "This Feng Shigu is similar to King Xian. One killed so many of his clansmen and believers to build the Dijian Village Committee, and the other killed 100,000 slaves to build King Xian's tomb. Both of them wanted to ascend to immortality!"
"But if one wants to become an immortal, Heaven must first examine one's character and virtues. Killing so many people and committing needless sins has already led one astray into the demonic path, yet one still wants to become an immortal. How laughable!"
Li Yang nodded and teased in a low voice, "My wife is right!"
Shirley Yang's smile was more radiant than the peach blossoms at the beginning of March.
Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang, and Professor Chen, who were standing nearby, all agreed with this.
They talked about their experiences at the tomb of the Prince Xian, but only briefly.
Sun Xuewu snapped out of his daze and tentatively asked, "Do the tomb of the King of Xian and the village of the Earth Immortals that you mentioned really have similarities?"
Li Yang looked at Professor Chen and asked, "Professor Chen, did you not mention your experience at the Tomb of the King of Xian to Professor Sun?"
Hao Aiguo, who was standing to the side, was the first to answer: "Didn't we sign a confidentiality agreement? We can't tell outsiders about this!"
Li Yang smiled and shook his head, "That confidentiality agreement only applies to the Chaos Serpent God; it doesn't matter about the Tomb of King Xian!"
"Professor Chen can tell Professor Sun in detail about the history of the tomb of King Xian, especially the connection between King Xian and that 100,000-year-old flesh fungus!"
"As far as I know, Feng Shigu of that Earth Immortal Village is a similar thing!"
Subsequently.
Under Sun Xuewu's curious gaze, Professor Chen recounted his experiences at the Xianwang Tomb in detail, and kept talking about how amazing Li Yang was.
[Happiness percentage +5%]
Upon hearing that Li Yang had single-handedly breached the perilous tomb of the King of Xian, and even used immense power to kill the King of Xian, who had already become a demon, he was deeply moved.
Sun Xuewu was stunned!
P.S.: Thank you to [Minghou] for the monthly pass!
Chapter 105 "Guan Shan Zhi Mi Fu" (A Guide to Viewing Mountains and Navigating the Enigma)! A staggering one hundred million US dollars! Professor Sun is in awe!
Li Yang smiled slightly at Sun Xuewu's shocked gaze.
"Professor Sun, aren't I awesome?"
Before Sun Xuewu could respond, Fatty Wang exclaimed in shock, "Brother Li, you're really something else? Where? Let me see!"
Li Yang raised his hand and pointed at Fatty Wang with an annoyed expression, a burst of lightning erupting from his fingertip.
boom!
Fatty Wang trembled all over from the electric shock.
He learned how to return life; his fat was rapidly converted into energy under the stimulation of lightning, which not only resisted the electric shock but also quickly repaired his injured body!
"Li...Li...Brother...I...was...wrong~"
Li Yang withdrew his finger.
Hu Bayi, seeing Wang Pangzi still trembling, knew he was alright; Li Yang's blow was just a minor punishment. He then said with exasperation:
"You'll see if you ever think before you speak again!"
Fatty Wang opened his mouth and exhaled a cloud of black gas. Looking at his emaciated body, he felt like crying.
"All the weight I gained from eating and drinking so much these past few days is gone!"
After obtaining permission from Professor Chen, the host, Li Yang called over a waitress and set up a new table, which earned him a grateful, strange shout from Fatty Wang.
"Brother Li, you're so generous! I was just being mean earlier. Sometimes my mouth just deserves a slap!"
Then another round of feasting began.
Li Yang then turned to Sun Xuewu and said with a smile, "Professor Sun, don't you have anything to say to us?"
"About the Immortal Village! About the Mountain Guardian!"
Sun Xuewu chuckled awkwardly, "Comrade Li Yang, you know far more than I do. I won't try to teach you a lesson, lest I make a fool of myself!"
Li Yang shook his head, deciding to ignore Sun Xuewu and instead look at Professor Chen.
"Feng Shigu's path to immortality is similar to that of the King of Xian; both sought to utilize external resources!"
"King Xian fused with the 100,000-year-old Meat Fungus, and Feng Shigu also fused with a certain prehistoric plant called Corpse Moss, the moss of moss!"
"This cadaver lichen is similar to a fungal plant; it can parasitize corpses and manipulate their movements!"
"Feng Shigu also found an excellent feng shui treasure land deep in the Wushan Valley, a corpse vein surrounded by dragon energy. However, because Wushan has been dug up and buried by countless people over thousands of years, the earth vein has long been severed!"
"All the incredibly auspicious feng shui veins that Feng Shigu found are useless!"
! ”
"However, Feng Shigu, confident in his superior skills and knowledge of Yin-Yang magic, planned to transform the entire Coffin Mountain into a tomb where he could ascend to immortality!"
"So he began to call himself an earth immortal, using sorcery to deceive the masses and incite those around him to believe in him."
"He told his disciples that a great calamity of war was about to befall the world, and that there was a fairy cave in the mountains that was like a paradise, where one could avoid the disaster!"
"And so, tens of thousands of believers, along with their families, followed Feng Shigu into the deep mountains and began to build the Earth Immortal Village, which has two levels: Yin and Yang!"
"Feng Shigu plans to use the Yin-Yang Hunyuan Feng Shui method to restore the earth's dragon vein energy!"
"And the final and most important step is to sacrifice everyone, using the powerful Yin energy gathered in their souls to stimulate the life force within the dragon vein!"
"Then, he used the life force of the dragon vein to nourish the corpse moss and himself, attempting to cultivate into a so-called corpse immortal and live a carefree life from then on!"
"But he had no idea that all the evil he had done and yet he wanted to become an immortal was nothing but a pipe dream!"
"It's impossible for Feng Shigu to become an immortal. On the contrary, he has already fallen into the form of a corpse demon. It would be an impossible task for an ordinary person to get rid of him!"
Sun Xuewu had been listening intently, and when he heard that Feng Shigu had become a corpse demon and that ordinary people could not get rid of him, his heart trembled!
His hands were clenched into fists under the table, his nails digging into his flesh and drawing blood, but he felt no pain whatsoever.
Seeing that Sun Xuewu was still putting on a brave face, Li Yang said again:
"Actually, Feng Shigu had a brother named Feng Shiqi!"
"Feng Shiqi left behind ancestral instructions, telling his descendants to find an opportunity to sneak into the Earth Immortal Village to investigate. If Feng Shigu has already become a demon, they must find a way to eliminate him!"
"Otherwise, although the location of Coffin Gorge is remote and secluded, it will eventually be dug out of the deep mountains. If there really is a corpse immortal in the tomb, it will surely enter the world to harm people, causing endless troubles. Then the sins of the Feng family will be great!"
"So from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties to the Republic of China and now, there have always been members of the Feng family who wanted to enter the Earth Immortal Village to find out what it was all about, but because the Earth Immortal Village was too secluded, even with the 'Guanshan Zhimi Fu' (a book on mountain observation and navigation), they were never able to enter the Earth Immortal Village!"
Upon hearing the words "Guanshan Zhimi Fu", Sun Xuewu's expression changed, and he looked at Li Yang with utter astonishment.
[Happiness percentage +1%]
He instinctively opened his mouth, wanting to ask Li Yang where he had heard of the "Guanshan Zhimi Fu" (a book on pointing out the mysteries of mountains and rivers), but suddenly remembered that if he asked, it would be tantamount to admitting his mistake, so he immediately shut up.
But then Li Yang recited:
"What a great king, headless and bodyless; without his wife, the mountains remain closed; he burns firewood to cook his liver and lungs; he digs wells and cuts salt, asking ghosts for money; the bird paths are crisscrossed, winding nine times out of a hundred steps; if he wishes to visit the immortal, he must first find the black sheep!"
Sun Xuewu jumped up from his chair, staring at Li Yang in disbelief.
[Happiness percentage +1%]
Professor Chen, who was standing to the side, glanced at him curiously and asked, "Old Sun, why are you so agitated?"
Realizing his lapse in composure, Sun Xuewu quickly tried to cover up his strange behavior, saying, "Actually, when I was collecting information about the Earth Immortal Village, I also found a passage like this in an ancient person's diary!"
"I didn't understand at first, but after listening to Comrade Li Yang's explanation of the Earth Immortal Village and his mention of the Black Sheep King, I finally understand!"
"So this seemingly folk song-like text is actually the 'Guanshan Zhimao Fu' (Guide to the Mountains and the Mysteries) for entering the Earth Immortal Village!"
The others suddenly understood.
Hu Bayi pondered for a moment and guessed, "In that case, to enter the Earth Immortal Village, we must first find the ancient tomb of the Black Sheep King!"
Lei Xianming listened to Li Yang's story without showing any emotion. When he heard that Feng Shigu had become the so-called Corpse Immortal, his eyes shone as brightly as the lights above his head!
"Um, may I interrupt?"
"Mr. Li Yang, have you ever thought about cooperating with me? You and Hu Bayi can go and steal that Earth Immortal Village, get Feng Shigu's Corpse Immortal Body, and let me handle it!"
"Many super-rich people abroad are very interested in these giant rice dumplings, and they are willing to pay exorbitant prices!"
"How about we split the profits equally, 2 for 1, or 3 for 1, or 3 for 1"?
Lei Xianming extended a finger with an extremely excited expression.
"If Feng Shigu's Corpse Immortal Body is miraculous enough, I'm confident I can sell it for that price!"
Fatty Wang tentatively asked, "One million?"
Lei Xianming curled his lip, his expression disdainful, and said, "One million is just the cost of advertising!"
Fatty Wang exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be ten million?"
Lei Xianming shook his head. "Fatty is still too timid, and he has no idea how crazy those super-rich people abroad are about things like giant rice dumplings... It's worth a hundred million!"
"And it's in US dollars!"
hiss~
Many people in the private room gasped in shock at the exorbitant price.
Hu Bayi's eyes darted around, and his expression showed a hint of interest.
