All around him were golden carved jade disks. A handsome man in a black dragon robe, wearing a crown on his head, and giving off an oppressive aura was sitting on a high seat. Civil and military officials on both sides of him were bowing with their hands clasped behind their backs, saluting the man.

However, the moment the door was opened, everyone in the hall looked at the people at the door.

Many people began to rub their eyes. This was too fantastical! When did Qin Shi Huang sneak here from Mount Li?

"Who are you?" A cold voice reached everyone's ears.

Li Yanchen whispered, "Third brother, what should we do? Do we still need to kowtow to the First Emperor?"

"This is an illusion. There must be someone here who is very proficient in magic and set up this strange magic." Bai Ningyu took out a handful of cinnabar and threw it into the air.

Then she quickly pinched the magic formula with her fingers, and saw cinnabar suddenly exploded in the center of the hall. After a burst of golden light, all the things that had appeared in front of everyone suddenly disappeared.

"Oh my god, what kind of martial arts is so awesome? Just sprinkle some cinnabar and chant a spell, and the illusion will be broken?" The fat man and the middle-aged man showed varying degrees of shock on their faces.

Even the young man, who always showed his emotions on his face, had a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Now it was Li Yanchen's turn to start showing off: "Of course, don't you see who our Miss Bai is?"

The hall was still magnificent, but a burning talisman appeared on the ground.

Bai Ningyu saw this and shouted, "Everyone be careful. Although the illusion has been broken, I'm afraid someone might have discovered we entered here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the palace door behind him suddenly slam shut.

Deep in the palace, in the very center, a long-haired Taoist priest sitting cross-legged on a cushion suddenly opened his eyes.

He has a young face, but the look in his eyes, which shows the accumulation of time, betrays his age.

The man looked at the sacred Fusang tree in front of him and sighed silently: "After so many years, what was supposed to come has finally come. I'm afraid such a good and peaceful life will be gone..."

On the main hall side, everyone carefully came to a palace with many murals.

The murals depict the life of Qin Shi Huang and the story of how he sent Xu Fu eastward to search for the elixir of immortality, which are all well known to everyone.

The mural at the back shows a middle-aged man telling everyone a story.

The story goes that Xu Fu wandered on the sea for a long time but still couldn't find a way to achieve immortality. Until one day, their ship was attacked by a giant sea monster and only a few people were left on the ship.

Fortunately, they floated to a small island with the debris of the ship. The people on the island welcomed them warmly. As the ship was broken, Xu Fu and the rest of the people could not return and had to settle down on the island temporarily.

However, he found that the people on the island were often oppressed by outsiders, so Xu Fu helped the people on the island drive away the outsiders. The people on the island were very grateful to Xu Fu, so they made him the king here.

So Xu Fu lived on the island, gathering people and building giant ships. At the same time, he was also looking for a way to achieve immortality.

It took more than ten years to build the ship, and Xu Fu also heard that there was a country called Fusang further east of the island, where there was a secret to immortality.

So Xu Fu excitedly took more than 2,000 people and sailed to look for Fuso. As expected, he lived up to everyone's expectations and found Fuso on the thirteenth day after leaving the island.

There is a very advanced civilization there, but all of this comes from the treasure of the Fusang Kingdom, a huge tree, which the locals call the Fusang Sacred Tree. They kneel down to worship the sacred tree every day because the sacred tree will grant them divine power and immortality.

Xu Fu explained his purpose. When the people of Fusang heard that he came from the other side of the sea, they were very hospitable. They treated Xu Fu as a guest of honor, entertained him warmly, and asked him to tell them about the Qin Dynasty.

Xu Fu quickly gained the trust of the people of Fuso. With their help, the gifted Xu Fu not only gained immortality there, but also learned very powerful magic. But for some reason, Xu Fu, who had gained all this, suddenly began to kill people in Fuso.

He killed all the people in Fusang Kingdom, snatched the huge sacred Fusang tree, and returned to the island with it.

He led the 5,000 people on the island, carried the Fusang sacred tree back to their homeland, and promised the remaining 2,000 people on the island that he would go back to pick them up.

But there is no doubt that Xu Fu broke his promise and did not keep his promise to go back and pick up the remaining people on the island.

But Ying Zheng did not wait for Xu Fu in the end. He died of illness on his way to the east and was buried in Mount Li. Later, the situation was turbulent, Qin II was tyrannical, the people complained, and they lived in misery.

After Xu Fu came back, he was soon found by Zhao Tuo. Qin Shi Huang felt that Xu Fu had deceived him and had not returned for so many years, so he told Zhao Tuo that if Xu Fu dared to come back, he must be killed.

But Xu Fu told Zhao Tuo that he could bring the First Emperor back to life. Zhao Tuo naturally didn't believe it, but after seeing the power Xu Fu had obtained, he believed Xu Fu.

So with the help of Zhao Tuo, Xu Fu spent six years building this place at the foot of Yumen Mountain.

Later, Xu Fu entered the imperial mausoleum of Mount Li, avoided the traps, secretly stole Ying Zheng's coffin, and transported it here under the escort of Zhao Tuo.

"Did Xu Fu really resurrect Qin Shi Huang? When we got to the central hall, we saw that Qin Shi Huang was playing mahjong with a group of people!" the fat man asked anxiously.

"Don't worry. Zhao Tuo and his troops volunteered to go into the mountains to serve as guards of the mausoleum. The last mural only depicts a tree and Xu Fu. As for whether Xu Fu resurrected Qin Shi Huang in the end, there is no clear explanation on the mural." The middle-aged man's explanation ended with the completion of the mural.

"Let's go to the next room and take a look. Maybe there is an answer in another room?" Li Yanchen suggested.

Everyone left the house and went into other rooms in twos and threes.
