"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, The Classic of Mountains and Seas..."
Sun Yuan lay on the hospital bed, subconsciously murmuring.
He felt that this tomb exploration was indeed very strange.
It seemed like there were continuous bizarre events, and they carried a certain eeriness…
Yan Han Tomb, Bronze Steel Tomb Passage, Blood Curse Gate, Immortal legends, The Classic of Mountains and Seas... And, his final blackout!
Even the hallucinations and delirium that just surfaced!
'Could it be... that among these Ancient Divine Tombs, there truly exist things that science cannot explain…'
Suddenly, Sun Yuan was reminded of the colossal mountain in his vision.
At that moment, he pressed his head, feeling a stabbing pain.
"Ah!"
This made Sun Yuan lay on the bed, screaming in agony.
In the midst of his screams, a vision of the ancient bamboo scroll—"The Classic of Mountains and Seas"—seemed to appear before his eyes!
Hua la la!
The Classic of Mountains and Seas opened to a page, on which was written in ancient seal script—[In the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain, called 'Kunlun', upon which an Immortal resides, named (smudged)(smudged)...]
"Kunlun!"
Sun Yuan's forehead veins popped, but he focused on reading and thinking to endure the pain: "Could the mountain I saw in the vision be Kunlun?... Is there an Immortal on it? What's the Immortal's name? Why was it smudged out?"
In a daze, he seemed to sense an aura of ancient secrets.
Nevertheless, in the next moment, Sun Yuan's body shuddered, and he fainted…
...
"Doctor, how am I?"
A few hours later, after a series of tests with Hua Peng's help, Sun Yuan anxiously stared at the doctor.
"According to the previous tests, you are very healthy... yet you have sudden headaches, tinnitus, and fainting symptoms... This... currently seems inexplicable."
The doctor in a white coat spread his hands: "The human brain is very mysterious; even modern science hasn't fully deciphered it... So, eat more nutritious food these days."
"What? I'm beyond help?" Sun Yuan was stunned: "Doctor... I feel like I can still be saved."
"No, I'm just suggesting you eat more nutrients to boost your brain... Maybe it will recover on its own," the doctor replied wryly.
After the doctor left, Hua Peng immediately asked, "Little Monkey, what's really going on with you?"
"I don't know either, just hallucinations appearing before my eyes, and a book—'The Classic of Mountains and Seas'! That's the one from the ancient tomb!"
Sun Yuan said seriously.
"You don't have a fever!" Hua Peng touched Sun Yuan's forehead and then his own: "How come you're spouting nonsense then..."
"It's true!"
Sun Yuan lay on the bed, looking as if he didn't want to talk anymore.
"Maybe you just glanced at it in the tomb, and the memory was so strong before you fainted that you remembered a line or two…"
Hua Peng guessed with a scientific attitude.
"I didn't look... but I remember clearly, if you don't believe me, I'll recite it for you... In the Great Wilderness, there is a mountain, called 'Kunlun'..."
Sun Yuan blurted out, his expression suddenly changing!
Because he realized that the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" he recited came out in another peculiar language!
This language was ancient, awkward, with obscure syllables... carrying an ancient rhythm!
Most importantly... he had never learned it!
"This is really bizarre!"
Sun Yuan himself was startled.
Next to him, Hua Peng's expression also became strange: "What did you just recite? I didn't catch it..."
Sun Yuan steadied himself and recited again.
Hua Peng's expression also became peculiar: "I clearly heard you say something, but I just can't remember it, even if it's a foreign language, at least I can pick up a couple of pronunciations..."
"I don't know. It's like I suddenly understood some of the pronunciations on that 'Classic of Mountains and Seas'..."
Sun Yuan repeated, but Hua Peng still couldn't remember. He even recorded it with his phone, but when replayed, it was just a mess of static noise.
At this, the two young men stared at each other.
"I... seem to have gotten myself into big trouble!"
Sun Yuan's voice was somewhat hoarse: "Go get me some paper and a pen!"
Hua Peng immediately rushed off, and time passed. Just when Sun Yuan thought Hua Peng had run off in fear, he returned, smelling heavily of smoke, and handed over a piece of white paper and a pen.
Sun Yuan thought about it and wrote down the line of ancient seal script he saw.
At this moment, he was astounded to discover that these scripts, which he seemingly had never learned, he understood immediately upon seeing!
A line of ancient seal script began to emerge on the paper.
But just then, something strange happened.
As Sun Yuan made the final stroke, the paper was suddenly shattered into fragments by an invisible force!
Hua la la!
Countless tiny paper fragments fluttered like butterflies before his eyes.
Sun Yuan's face turned vacant.
Hua Peng took a deep breath: "Bro, it seems you really are in deep trouble now! Tsk tsk... This is pure supernatural power, should I report to the state, have them come and dissect you?"
"What era are we in now? The most would be collaborative research... though I might be the subject..." Sun Yuan rolled his eyes: "But... I don't want to lose my freedom, I want... to figure this all out."
"Got it, I'll keep your secret."
After the fright, Hua Peng was somewhat excited.
After all, having always lived under a scientific worldview, seeing supernatural power suddenly, and being in his teen years, how could he not be intrigued!
"Brothers for life, I'll definitely help you. What's next?"
Hua Peng's eyes glowed slightly, he said excitedly.
"First, get me discharged! I've roughly figured it out, it's not my brain that's the issue, it's the 'Classic of Mountains and Seas' that's problematic! Let's find Professor Xiang, his knowledge of ancient texts far exceeds ours, he might know more clues!"
Sun Yuan took a deep breath and made a decision.
...
University.
Outside Professor Xiang's dormitory.
Already discharged, Hua Peng and Sun Yuan knocked on the door.
Unexpectedly, the door wasn't locked and swung open after a knock.
Sun Yuan and Hua Peng exchanged glances, a sense of foreboding rising sharply: "Professor Xiang? We're coming in?"
Pushing open the door, they were greeted by a slightly dusty cubicle, as if it hadn't been cleaned in a while.
The small room was crammed with all sorts of books, research works, and thesis materials.
Directly opposite was a desk, Professor Xiang with his back to them, flipping through some documents rapidly: "Impossible... can't find it... Jade Bone... Jade Bone... I remember a foreign archaeological team once had similar findings, where did I put it?"
"Professor Xiang!"
Sun Yuan called out again, and only then did Professor Xiang jerk his head around: "Who?!"
'Good heavens!'
Hua Peng and Sun Yuan were startled, almost fleeing in panic.
At this moment, Professor Xiang's eyes were bloodshot, his beard unkempt, looking as though he hadn't rested in a long time, exuding a frenzied aura.
