"Dear passengers, the plane has arrived at Qinhuangdao Beidaihe Airport. Please disembark from the front door. On behalf of all the crew members of Shanghai Airlines, I would like to thank you for your choice. We look forward to seeing you again …"
Compared to the airports in big cities, Beidaihe Airport was slightly more exquisite. Jie Lin walked down the gangway and boarded the ferry. He didn't salute, so he didn't need to wait for his luggage to be transported. He walked straight out of the terminal.
His phone rang and Jie Lin picked it up. "Hello."
"I'm at your service. I'm at the parking lot. Just walk straight out of the terminal and you'll see me. My license plate is …"
"I see you."
Then, Jie Lin hung up the phone.
Qin Yang looked at the phone screen. It seemed that this passenger had good eyesight. It saved him the trouble of looking for him.
After a while, Jie Lin opened the door and got into the car.
When Jie Lin got into the car, Qin Yang, who was about to hand over a bottle of mineral water, suddenly froze.
"Sir, have we met before?"
"Hehe, this is my second time coming to Qinhuangdao. The last time was many years ago," Jie Lin answered.
Hearing this answer, Qin Yang's fingers gently stroked the steering wheel. He instinctively felt that he had met this passenger somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.
"Are you going to Shangri-La Hotel? We'll be there soon …"
"No need, go to Changli County." Jie Lin took out a stack of RMB from his wallet and handed it over. "Is that okay, sir?"
Qin Yang's strange feeling rose again. No, something must be wrong. But Qin Yang still reached out to take the money. "Okay, I can go, but it's a bit far. It's dozens of kilometers away."
"It's okay." Jie Lin smiled. "I'll take a nap."
Then, Jie Lin leaned against the window and closed his eyes.
Qin Yang started the engine and drove out of the airport. He wasn't worried about gangsters or robberies, but he knew very well that his uneasiness wasn't because of that, but because the passenger sitting in the back seat was giving him a lot of pressure, even if he couldn't sense any energy fluctuations from the passenger.
Fortunately, Qin Yang had been through a lot. Although he hadn't become an advanced listener yet, his strength was at the peak of the veterans. He didn't know much about the recent events. After all, he wasn't on the same level as Su Bai and the others, so he didn't know why the radio went down.
But the sudden shutdown of the radio and the sudden appearance of a large number of real life missions after the radio was rebroadcast made Qin Yang smell something special. It seemed like something was different.
Changli County wasn't very close to Qinhuangdao, but it wasn't very far either. Usually, Qin Yang wouldn't accept this mission, especially when the destination was suddenly changed after getting in the car. He needed to earn money, but he didn't care about money. After all, the only people who needed money were his wife and children. Money didn't mean much to him. Therefore, the stack of RMB that Jie Lin had just given him wasn't the reason why Qin Yang changed his mind.
Finally, in the evening, Qin Yang drove to Changli.
Before Qin Yang could ask where the customer was, Jie Lin, who had his eyes closed as if he was asleep, suddenly said,
"Jieshi Mountain."
Qin Yang didn't show any objection. He just thought of it as helping the Buddha to the west. He nodded, turned the car, and drove to Jieshi Mountain. Anyway, Jieshi Mountain was just a few kilometers outside Changli County.
Jieshi Mountain seemed like a very ordinary name, but in fact, many people had heard of Cao Cao's poem, "Watching the Sea": Facing Jieshi Mountain to the East to watch the sea.
In fact, there was a time when the history world couldn't tell which "Jieshi Mountain" was the mountain that Cao Cao had climbed to write his poem. There were also Jieshi Mountains in Shandong and Liaoning. It wasn't until the eighties when a grave of Meng Jiang Nu near the Meng Jiang Nu Temple in Qinhuangdao was excavated. Through the unearthed cultural relics, it was confirmed that Changli County's Jieshi Mountain was the one that Cao Mengde had climbed. For this reason, a great man who liked to recuperate in Beidaihe wrote "Lang Tao Sha – Beidaihe". In it, there was "Facing Jieshi Mountain to the East, there was a poem".
"The scenic area should be closed now," Qin Yang said.
"Scenic area?" Jie Ling reached out to touch the car window. Because of the large temperature difference between day and night in Qinhuangdao, there was already some water mist in the tightly closed car window. "For people like you, there is no such thing as closing the door or not."
"Screech …"
Qin Yang stepped on the brake, and the car shuddered. His eyes immediately looked at Jie Ling through the rearview mirror.
"Who are you?"
"Accompany me up the mountain." Jie Ling didn't open the door, but his figure was already outside the car. His back was facing the car, and he was facing Jieshi Mountain.
In his eyes, Jieshi Mountain had a completely different meaning from others', including Qin Yang's. In the blink of an eye, it was like a dream.
Qin Yang also got out of the car, and he followed behind Jie Ling with some vigilance. The two of them, one in front and one behind, started to climb the mountain.
They didn't walk on the man-made mountain road, but directly walked on the rocky cliffs. Along the way, Qin Yang didn't ask anything. The two of them seemed a little too quiet.
After all, it was evening, and two big men, one in front and one behind, were walking on a deserted mountain. It was indeed a little strange.
Finally, Jie Ling stopped in his tracks. "Your courage is not bad."
"Compared to a person I know, it's not worth mentioning." The person Qin Yang mentioned was still in Leshan. But Qin Yang didn't know that Su Bai had just met with the person in front of him a day ago. Not only did they meet, but they also fought. They almost overturned the Leshan Giant Buddha and Sanjiang.
"So, I admire the way it chooses people. Selfish, self-interested, and self-centered, but with a will that many people can't have, such as the desire to live, and even other characters derived from it."
Qin Yang's face showed a trace of confusion. He didn't know what the other person meant.
"Hehe …"
As if sensing Qin Yang's confusion, Jie Ling chuckled.
This person was only worthy to be his driver and assistant. He couldn't be the Grand Tutor that he could chat with.
"We'll arrive in front," Jie Ling said.
"In front?" Qin Yang paused, and said, "To see those inscriptions on the tablets?"
"Those?" Jie Ling seemed to be interested in these two words.
"Hmm, there are many inscriptions left by the ancients. The most famous one is the First Emperor's' Poems on Stone Gate '. After all, the name Qinhuang Island came from the First Emperor." Qin Yang said.
"Hehe." Jie Ling didn't answer and continued walking forward.
Qin Yang followed behind. He didn't know why, but the closer he got to the tablets, the more pressure he felt. It was as if the man in front of him was tearing off his disguise, revealing his true face, or … his original temperament.
From the beginning to the end, the other party didn't reveal any aura related to his strength. But this slowly condensing temperament made it hard for Qin Yang to raise his head.
Qinhuang Island, when did such an existence come?
Is he a listener?
Qin Yang closed his eyes, trying to recall Jie Lin's appearance in his mind, but to his dismay, he couldn't recall his face at all. Even though he had just seen him and spoken to him, this was truly an unimaginably high level smokescreen.
"What are you thinking about?" Jie Ling asked.
"I still feel like I've seen you somewhere before."
"The person you saw wasn't me." Jie Ling answered.
Finally, the inscription appeared. It was a large and exquisite tablet with the words' Poems on Stone Gate 'carved on it. It was obvious that it was added by someone later. The inscription was still the same, but it wasn't the same tablet erected by the First Emperor two thousand years ago.
"Are you interested in this?" Qin Yang and Jie Ling stood side by side in front of the inscription.
Jie Ling stretched out his hand, caressing the inscription. He shook his head silently. Then, he raised his palm. In the center of his palm, a faint blood-red light appeared.
Immediately, a ray of light suddenly rose diagonally in front of him. This ray of light seemed to have appeared in response to the blood light. Within the ray of light, a huge banner could be seen. On the banner, each word was sonorous and carried a majestic aura that could swallow mountains and rivers.
"This … this is the real 'Poems on Stone Gate'?" Qin Yang was shocked. As someone from Qinhuang Island, he naturally had a deeper understanding of these things. In other words, he had a deeper feeling for them.
"You fake kings and fake emperors, how dare you share the same bed with the Ancestral Dragon!"
Jie Ling seemed to have discovered something, and it triggered his reverse scale. He immediately let out an angry roar!
Suddenly, around the 'Poems on Stone Gate', inscriptions of other colors appeared. But compared to the First Emperor's' Poems on Stone Gate ', these inscriptions seemed very small. It could even be said that they couldn't be compared at all.
In the 12th year of Jian 'an of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao led his army to the east to conquer Wuheng. On his way back from the Liaoxi Corridor, he passed by Jieshi and left behind the' Journey Out of Xia Men ', also known as the' Poems on Stone Gate '.
Emperor Sima Yi of the Jin Dynasty fought against Gongsun Yuan. When he passed by Changli, he climbed the Stone Stone Mountain to ask for an immortal to erect a tablet and commemorate the achievements of the Qin Emperor.
When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty fought against Goryeo, he divided his army out of Changli and climbed the Stone Stone Mountain.
In the spring of the nineteenth year, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, personally fought against Goryeo. He passed by Stone Stone and left behind a poem called 'Gazing at the Sea in Spring': "The great waves change into the wild, the green island becomes mulberry … Zhifu thinks of the Han Emperor, Stone Stone thinks of the Qin Emperor."
Under Jie Ling's angry roar, the soul imprints left behind by generations of emperors or people comparable to emperors were all erased.
They …
Dared to stand beside the Ancestral Dragon!
