"Black Dragon Mirror... So, the latest fragments found in Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum are very likely another kind of mirror."
Fusu nodded slightly, his eyes equally deep and full of exploration.
"Yes, according to the descriptions in these texts, the two mirrors each have different powers, but the specific instructions for using them seem to have been lost."
Li Rongrong thought about the discoveries made during the day's archaeological excavations and became lost in thought.
"If it's incomplete..."
"Since there are no relevant clues in modern times... maybe you can find them when you go back, Fusu."
"Well, we can only wait." Fusu also thought of this. What he was more worried about was the current situation in the Qin Dynasty.
At the same time in Daqin.
Qin Shi Huang, the greatest emperor of all time who unified the six kingdoms, was now standing on a high place in the Xianyang Palace, his eyes sharp and his face ashen.
The jade cup in his hand was thrown heavily to the ground, with fragments flying everywhere, as if it was the concrete manifestation of the anger in his heart.
...
...
The entire Xianyang city, and even the entire world, trembled under the emperor's wrath.
"I will dig three feet deep to find Fusu!"
"No matter who kidnapped my son, I will make him pay the price!"
Qin Shihuang's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, full of unquestionable majesty.
The cause of the incident started a few days ago.
After Prince Fusu was assassinated and poisoned, Qin Shihuang sent people to dig up the ancestral tombs of the Zhao nobles, but no antidote was found.
But killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and using the locator to catch all the assassins in one fell swoop, can be considered as getting the antidote.
Unexpectedly, Prince Fusu, who took the antidote, not only did not wake up, but also disappeared inexplicably without anyone noticing.
Many people secretly speculated that it was the remnants of the six kingdoms who had abducted Prince Fusu.
This was not only a provocation to Qin Shihuang, but also an insult to the entire Qin Empire.
How could Qin Shi Huang tolerate such a thing? He immediately ordered that the entire city of Xianyang be dug three feet deep to find Fusu's trace.
Xianyang City, this prosperous capital, is now shrouded in a solemn and murderous atmosphere.
The soldiers searched house by house, leaving no corner untouched. Even the abandoned houses and underground passages that were usually ignored were turned upside down.
However, despite their great efforts, they still could not find any trace of Fusu.
"Your Majesty, Young Master Zhang requests to see you." The newly replaced eunuch chief reported cautiously.
The atmosphere had been depressing these days, and he didn't want to cause any trouble.
Zhang Han, who rushed from the border, was wearing heavy armor and walking in steady and powerful steps. There was a solemn look on his face and a gleam of wisdom in his eyes.
At this moment, the Xianyang Palace was shrouded in an unprecedented atmosphere of tension, and the source of all this was the disappearance of Prince Fusu.
Zhang Han walked into the hall, bowed respectfully to Qin Shi Huang, and then slowly said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Qin Shi Huang withdrew his gaze from the window and fell on Zhang Han. His voice was somewhat anxious: "Speak."
Zhang Han took a deep breath, as if to suppress the turmoil in his heart, and then continued: "I dare to guess that the disappearance of Master Fusu may not be caused by human power, but... he was taken away and treated by the immortal in the mirror."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall.
Qin Shi Huang was even more shocked. He stood up suddenly and looked at Zhang Han with a sharp gaze: "What do you mean?"
Zhang Han was well prepared. He calmly explained, "Your Majesty, do you still remember that before Prince Fusu was poisoned, the immortal in the mysterious mirror had been communicating with him?"
"As far as I know, the mirror is extraordinary and seems to contain some mysterious power. I have asked the servants and they said that the young master had communicated with the immortal before he was assassinated."
"Perhaps it was the immortal in this mirror who sensed the danger of the young master and took him away for treatment."
When Qin Shihuang heard this, an inexplicable hope surged in his heart.
He immediately turned to look at the person Zhang Han brought with him, and asked anxiously, "Are you the attendant who served Fusu? After he was assassinated, was the mirror still with him?"
Xiao Shitou was Fusu's personal servant, and he usually served him.
When he heard Qin Shi Huang's question, he immediately knelt on the ground, his voice trembling a little: "Your Majesty, I have indeed seen the precious mirror. After the young master was poisoned, he kept it in his arms."
"Where is the precious mirror now?"
"When I gave you the medicine the night before, I put the mirror back to the sacred urn where it was enshrined."
He usually did not give full authority to Fusu to communicate with the immortals, and for a moment he even forgot about the immortals.
Thinking of the treacherous methods of the magic mirror and what the immortal said, there is no need to worry if it is really the immortal who took Fusu away.
After thinking this through, Qin Shihuang's mood calmed down a little, but his inner anxiety did not completely dissipate.
He stood up and said to Zhang Han with a firm gaze: "I will go to Fusu's palace to look at the mirror myself. Perhaps I can find some clues from it."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Han quickly nodded in agreement and personally led the way for Qin Shihuang.
The group walked through the corridors of the Xianyang Palace, passed through the heavily guarded palace gate, and finally arrived at the palace where Fusu lived.
Inside the palace, everything remained the same as it was before Fusu disappeared, except that there was a faint sense of sadness and tension in the air.
When Qin Shihuang walked into the room, his eyes were immediately attracted by the mysterious mirror placed on the altar.
This mirror is completely different from ordinary mirrors. There are intricate patterns carved on the frame, and every line seems to contain some mysterious power.
At this moment, the surface of the mirror was faintly glowing with golden light, and the originally static black dragon pattern seemed to be given life, lively and lifelike.
Qin Shihuang walked forward, gently stroked the mirror frame, and felt the slight coolness coming from the mirror.
An inexplicable excitement surged in his heart.
Suddenly, he had an idea, and he took a piece of paper from the side and wrote a few words on it with pen and ink: "My son Fusu, if you are in the immortal realm, please return this letter as soon as possible."
After writing, he carefully folded the note and placed it in front of the mirror.
The magical thing is that as soon as the paper touched the mirror, it seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and slowly merged into the mirror.
Qin Shihuang watched this scene nervously.
If Fusu was really taken away by the immortal in the mirror, then this note would definitely be conveyed to him.
On the other side, Fusu and Li Rongrong were sitting in front of a mirror, studying the mystery of the mirror.
They tried to capture some useful information from the mirror, but always got nothing.
Just when they were about to give up, the mirror suddenly emitted a golden light, illuminating the entire room.
The two looked at the mirror in surprise, and saw a piece of paper slowly floating out of the mirror in the golden light and fell into Fusu's hands.
