—187 A.D.——

Royal Palace, West Garden.

Liu Bei had originally found a lot of reasons to persuade the Sword Saint to carry out his plan of "taking the emperor away and moving the capital by the way", but when the emperor himself had already woken up after taking the immortal medicine, there was no need.

The most famous thing is that the "First Emperor" of the pre-Qin Dynasty sent Xu Fu to Dongying Xianshan to ask for medicine.

Those original jokes, in the meteorite falling from the sky, the revival of the aura now does not seem so ridiculous.

At least, the emperor, who had fallen into a deep coma and was delirious, was able to regain his sanity after unconsciously swallowing a small half-dreaded "elixir of immortality" that was as black as mud, which was enough to prove that it worked.

However, the title of this "immortal elixir" is just a casual remark by Xiahou Ji, at least the appearance and effect of this thing are not very different from the legendary "elixir" and "fairy grass".

But now there is no time to dwell on this, the legendary "unparalleled in the world" Lu Bu has already been killed in the air, and for some reason it has turned into a thunderbolt dragon alternating red and black, and is confronting the Sword Saint who went to intercept him.

"What have I eaten? Where is the demon path that offered the 'elixir' before? The Emperor just looked up in the direction of the explosion in the air, and then turned his head with an expression of great peace of mind about the Sword Master.

"Your Majesty knows that this is the 'immortal medicine' refined by the Xiahou Fairy brought by Liu Yudi," Ge Xuan made a mockery, as if to prevent the emperor from misunderstanding, adding: "At present, it seems that it is just a name, but it can remove the toxicity of those 'elixirs' before, and as for those demon paths, they have been beheaded by the Sword Saint." ”

Why is it Xiahou Fairy? Liu Bei looked at Xiahou Ji and found that she was nodding quite smugly.

“…… There are always Diao people who want to harm me, which is why I did not listen to the persuasion of Daochang Ge, "The emperor stood up from the dragon couch, his hands and feet were still a little trembling, but his face was much more relaxed, and he looked at Liu Bei with appreciative eyes: "But I still have loyal ministers in the Han Dynasty." ”

A few simple words of conversation were enough for Liu Bei, who had a lot of information, to deduce many things, for example, it was not the empress or the ten permanent servants who were assassinating the emperor, but some Taoist who offered the "elixir" and whose background was unknown, Ge Xuan seemed to intend to stop it, but the emperor did not listen, as for the sword saint...... He probably didn't know anything about alchemy, so he could only use force to intimidate the worshippers, but they were already dead soldiers.

However, after the emperor fell into a coma, the empress and the ten permanent servants naturally fought for the right to control the emperor, which led the emperor to conclude that he was controlled by eunuchs or relatives in the interval between awakenings, and entrusted the sword master to issue a "cloth and belt edict".

That's right, the edict of the cloth.

Liu Bei took out the edict from his arms, and presented it with both hands: "The minister learned that His Majesty had suffered a calamity, and he couldn't sleep peacefully every day, and gathered people and horses to come to King Qin in the starry night, but found that at this time Luoyang was fighting in many ways, and most of the palace was destroyed. ”

"I have expected it," the emperor raised his hand and pressed the edict of the belt of his clothes, and pushed it back: "This edict does not need to be handed over, it will remain in the hands of the royal brother, and whoever sees it will be like me in person." ”

"Thank you......"

Scold! Zheng!

Halfway through Liu Bei's words, Lu Bu and Wang Yue in the air had already started fighting, and the sword roar and dragon chant made the Xiyuan Dormitory located directly below tremble, and the gold and silver powder on the walls and the pearls and jade decorated everywhere fell to the ground one after another.

"......" The emperor looked at the surrounding golden brilliance, and his eyes changed several times.

This kind of look Liu Bei is very familiar with, it is the way Liu Ling looked at Zhang Fei - he knew that he should give up, but he couldn't make up his mind, and he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart and hoped that a miracle would happen.

"Your Majesty!" Liu Bei immediately spoke: "With the skills of Lu Bu and the Sword Master, this place will inevitably be destroyed and buried, but the gold, silver and jade will not lose their value because they are buried in the ground, and when this chaos is over, they will be dug out of the ground and given the name of 'Leftover from the battlefield during the battle between the Sword Master and Lu Bu', which can appreciate a hundred times!" ”

"Brother Yu is right!" The emperor's eyes were blazing: "I will leave with Qing, and these 'holy relics' will be discovered in the future." ”

“……”

This emperor seems to be easier to deal with than expected? The relatives, eunuchs, and ministers who had to do it with him before were all fools, right?

————

Outside the North Gate of the West Garden.

Although the emperor had woken up and was conscious, because he had been in bed for too long, his limbs were not very obedient, so he walked a few steps by himself, slower than a turtle, and finally under the persuasion of Liu Bei and Ge Xuan, he left through the side door of the dormitory in the small car pushed by Xiahou Ji before.

After all, the Liangzhou army was violent, and even broke through Tongguan and Hangu, although the reason used was that he received unfair treatment from the ten permanent servants and wanted to "clear the king's side", but at this time, when the situation in Luoyang was chaotic, he did not wait and see from afar but brazenly broke through the west gate, and no one would think that his attempt was small.

Originally, Liu Bei was still a little worried that the emperor would ask him to bring out the empress or prince, in that case, the enemies they needed to deal with would expand from the group of people who also had the emperor's idea to the people who only fought the other two princes' ideas.

However, after the emperor recovered his consciousness by taking the "immortal medicine", he seemed to be very clear about his own situation, and did not make such a request at all, let alone ask them about their current situation, but put on a kind appearance to ask Xiahou Ji what the material of the "immortal medicine" was, who he studied and so on.

"The material for the 'elixir of immortality'? Naturally, it is impatiens, mixed with other medicinal materials that will be black after mashing, and then keep pounding with a pestle, during which if there is no black powder appearing, pick it out and throw it away. Not only the materials, but also the little girl also said the method, which made Ge Xuan, who watched the whole process, thoughtful.

However, the next sentence directly reduced the credibility of her words by more than ninety.

"This recipe was invented by me in the Guanghan Palace [Pounding Medicine Jade Rabbit] myself, and I didn't learn it from other Chang'e!"

"Oh, I see, it's actually obtained through the 'memory of the old world'," the emperor sitting in the car turned to Zhang Fei with a familiar look: "So, which star monarch in the sky is this one you call your husband?" ”

"Huhuhu......" Xiahou Ji suddenly changed the tone of his speech: "He is the Marshal of Tianpeng who is in charge of the 100,000 Tianhe Water Army for the Heavenly Court~"

Liu Bei supported her forehead, she used to say that she was a phoenix and a moon palace Chang'e, and now she has become a jade rabbit...... are all unheard of fairy names, as for what "Heavenly Court", does it mean that there is a court in the sky? It's ridiculous.

"Well, 'for the canopy of the sky', very good, I will make him a [marshal of the canopy]." The emperor directly opened his mouth to seal the official.

"As for this, it's the 'Marshal of God' who always pulls my husband's hind legs." It seemed that he had the support of others, and Xiahou Ji's interest increased, and he turned his head to point to Liu Bei and pressed an identity for him.

"Your Majesty, this little kid's nonsense should not be taken seriously." Ge Xuan persuaded on the side, and Liu Bei deeply agreed.

"Hehe, Xuande's 'Heavenly Blessing' can't be sealed, because you are already my 'royal brother'." The Emperor laughed.

"Jade Emperor...... Then there is no way. Xiahou Ji sighed.

Boom——!

During the conversation, the Sword Saint and Lu Bu had already had another hard encounter, and the resulting aftermath directly destroyed half of the buildings in the West Garden.

————

Perhaps it was because of Xiahou Ji's interaction with the emperor that Liu Bei's relationship with Ge Xuan became closer, so he tried to ask him questions about "Wushi San" and "Double Powder".

As he guessed, unlike the Taiping Dao of "playing with water", the other "Dan Dao" played with "earth" and "fire", and "Wushisan", as the name suggests, is made of five stone minerals: stone stalactites, purple quartz, white quartz, stone sulfur, and red stone resin, but the materials used must be mutated due to the influence of "Wushuang", that is, at least "excellent" grade materials can be used for refining.

It is said that there are "Musou Warriors" who claim to have increased their power after taking it, and there are also those who have the "Strategist Character" who claim to have become more and more agile, but this is not verified.

However, their common feature is that after taking it, it will cause the body to heat up, and it must be suppressed by drinking, otherwise it may lead to coma, so in the Dan Dao, it is classified as "Jinye Dan", that is, it must be taken with water.

However, this causal link is ultimately reversed, and in many of today's banquets, the host will offer the banquet attendees five stone powder, and if there are more than "five stone" materials in these powders, the banquet organizers will feel quite pompous and face-saving.

As for "Huashuang Powder", it belongs to another series of pills "Taiqing Dan", this pill named after Taishang Laojun is naturally not made to eliminate Wushuang, it can be seen from the name that it was originally refined to enable people to fly into immortals, but in the end it became a weapon that made "Wushuang" fly away, which made Ge Xuan quite embarrassed, but this is still his greatest achievement at present.

What made the emperor unconscious, those "demon ways" offered the "elixir", which was a kind of elixir that Ge Xuan had conceived, but had not yet finished the product, tentatively named "Jiuding Dan", which took the meaning of "Jiuding Town and Kyushu", which is to use as many medicinal materials as possible, and make them not conflict with each other, and finally achieve the effect of "curing all diseases", "flesh and bones of the living dead", and even "immortality".

However, those "demon daos" were only an enhanced version of the "Five Stone Powder", which was too strong because of the strong medicinal effect, which directly made the emperor fall into a coma because he didn't have time to drink.

Although the Sword Master suspected that it was a relative of a eunuch or a courtier, he did not find any evidence, so he could only hide the emperor in the West Garden to avoid being taken advantage of.

Probably because everyone was attracted by the battle between Lu Bu and the Sword Saint, and there was a part of the "Diao Chan" secretly helping, Liu Bei took the emperor and left the palace smoothly.

Suddenly, the sky became dark again, and at the same time, there was the sound of the sword master's chanting.

[One body fought for three thousand miles, and one person was a million divisions; 】

[The hall is full of three thousand guests, and one sword is cold in nineteen states! ] 】
