Chapter 216: This Hairpin, Yours
King Qin in the past.
Seek immortality, group boys and girls, and go to sea to find fairy mountains.
There was a miasma of smoke everywhere, and everyone was full of sadness. "Patriarch, is this going to work?" The underneath asked.
The white-haired old man sighed lightly, "This is the last furnace, if this furnace is not successful, then it is really necessary to ......"
"Daddy!" A young man came in from outside the medicine house, and the people below quickly exited.
The white-haired old man turned his head to look at him, "What are you doing here?" I'm not asking you to get ready, if it really doesn't work, you can go first, go to the sea, or live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, don't stay here anymore, otherwise you will die sooner or later. ”
"Not necessarily!" The young man walked from the darkness to the light, and the light of the fire at the furnace set off his facial features with extraordinary angularity.
The crown of the face is like jade, the eyes are deep, the bridge of the nose is high, the thin lips are slightly raised, there is a bit of arbitrariness, and there is a style of romance between the eyebrows and eyes. He stood like a jade, looking at his father with a determined gaze, "Perhaps, if something different is added, it will have a different effect." ”
The old man was puzzled, "Something different?" What's different? Xu Zhan, you can't act rashly, some things are taboo and must not be touched, otherwise you will suffer backlash and retribution! ”
"Dad, why can't you? There are so many recipes in our Xu family, and as long as some things are developed and re-refined, they can be reborn. King Qin wants this thing, if we can't give it out, we will die! The young man argued.
The father and son have always been like this, one is more stubborn than the other, the other is more stubborn than the other, and in the end, neither of them will give in.
"Xu Zhan!" The old man gritted his teeth, "What you can't touch, you can't touch even if you die." Do you know that when something is destroyed, there is a reason why it must be destroyed, and you don't need to say it again! Get out! ”
"Daddy!"
"Get out!"
Gritting his teeth, the young man withdrew from the medicine house with a dark face.
In the evening, someone came to the palace, and after some inspection, he reprimanded the Xu family, saying that the boys and girls were ready, and they had to set off in full gear when they turned around, and then went to the sea to find the immortal mountain.
The clansmen's eyes widened in horror.
That look was no less than the fear of a knife on the neck.
But what about it?
The emperor's order is like a mountain, and those who violate it ...... There are no dead bodies.
O whole family!
"Daddy!"
"Shut up!"
The old man closed the door of the medicine house heavily, looking at the big Gu furnace bubbling with a bang, he also had entanglements and struggles in his heart, but in the end, reason overcame everything, some of the Gu refining techniques left by the ancestors of the Xu family were extremely evil and ruthless, if they were really put into practice, even he didn't know what terrible things would happen.
If the Xu clan is destroyed, it will only be the destruction of the clan, but if it endangers the common people, there will be nowhere to redeem the sins of his body.
No!
Absolutely not!
After putting away the bamboo slips, the old man shook his head and stayed in silence for a long time, probably feeling bored, and quietly left the medicine house in the dead of night.
As soon as he left, someone came.
In the dim place, someone carried a sack and quickly entered the medicine house, only hearing the sound of "dong dong" twice, and I don't know what was thrown into the Gu furnace, but I don't know why, this Gu furnace didn't react.
In this way, for three days in a row, someone threw things into the Gu furnace.
No one knows exactly what was lost.
Until three days later......
"Patriarch, my children have been looking for two days, I thought they had entered the mountains, but who knows why they didn't come back, is there something in the mountains? Want to eat people? ”
"But there are no wolves or tigers around here, we have all looked for them, there can't be anything that eats people!"
"Patriarch, my daughter slept well last night, but I don't know why it's gone!"
The old man frowned, "How long have you been looking?" How many are lost? How many men are there? How many women? ”
He has been living in the medicine store, and he wants to refine the elixir of life, so he has no idea what has happened outside in the past few days, and now when he hears that so many children are missing, his heart is immediately raised.
Others don't know why, but he knows.
Boys and girls?
If it is ordinary men and women, it is okay, but their clan, quite a little strange, because of the ancestral bloodline, occasionally there will be people with extraordinary talents, so the children in the clan must be a little different from ordinary people.
In the end, I found out that within three days, three boys and three virgins had been lost in the clan!
The old man's hands were trembling, and he didn't say a word.
He knew what it meant, but he couldn't say it, and he didn't dare to say it, he just looked at his son thoughtfully, lowered his eyelids with a weak heart, and his body was slightly rickety, "I know about this, you keep looking, I will find a way!" ”
When everyone went down, Xu Zhan stepped forward, "Dad!" ”
"Rebel!" After a slap, the old man almost couldn't stand, and even his breathing became short, "How can you do such a thing?" As I said, you can't use those sideways! Can the elixir of life refined with the evil way still be regarded as immortality? That's a demon, a scourge! If I am a plague to the next day, I will be the most sinful person in the world! ”
"Daddy!" Xu Zhan drank vigorously, covered his face and sneered, "If all the clansmen are dead, do you still think that your stubbornness makes sense?" When you die, no one will think you are great, no one will be grateful to you, and your people will hate you. The deadline given by King Qin is almost up, going to sea is undoubtedly a dead end, what is out there, you won't be unclear, right? ”
"Then I'd rather die!" The old man brushed his sleeves away.
Stroking his aching cheeks, Xu Zhan's eyes were fierce, "My life is up to me, do you think you can really stop me?" ”
Don't!
In the next few days, the old man was summoned into the palace by the King of Qin, probably because he was worried that something would happen to the medicine house, so he specially ordered the clansmen to guard it well. But if you want to go in, who can stop you?
In four days, four pairs of boys and girls disappeared.
When the old man returns, it's too late for anything, and it's too late to be together.
There was a faint blue fire in the Gu furnace continuously, and the elixir in the Gu furnace was about to be refined, that is to say, ...... At this moment, even the old man could not do anything.
In my ears is the cry of a child, and when I look back, I look back like a rebel victor.
"You deliberately let King Qin break me apart......" the old man's voice trembled.
"Actually, you can stop it, but you don't, because I'm your son, my own son. You can't afford to lose this person, and you don't dare to tell the truth, you are afraid that you will end up without a queen, I am your only son, if I die, you will have no successor, and you will be cut off from your grandchildren. Xu Zhan smiled fiercely, "Your connivance is enough to show your cowardice and incompetence." Dad, in fact, you also want to put these things into practice, but you don't dare! ”
The old man stared at him scarletly, but he was so helpless.
"I just did what you wanted to do and didn't dare to do!" Xu Zhan stroked his handsome face, "You dare to say that you don't have any thoughts at all?" Dare you say you never thought about doing that? The so-called benevolence, righteousness and morality are just for the world, who made you take it seriously? ”
"How did you end up like this?" The old man gritted his back molars, "You will be punished for this!" ”
"Retribution?" Xu Zhan shook his head, "It's you who suffers retribution, and I am probably your retribution, but what...... I will also be your lucky star, and you will know what a perfect result will be when this furnace is opened. As recorded on the bamboo slip, boys and girls are fed Gu worms, and after refining, they can be immortal. Don't you want yourself to live forever? ”
The old man's body tensed, "People should follow the way of heaven, immortality or immortality, that is against the way of heaven, and they will be punished by heaven!" ”
"My life is up to me, Dad, I'm not you, those things can't help me, I'll succeed soon!" Xu Zhan stood on the edge of the Gu furnace, "When the elixir of life is refined, I will no longer be Xu Zhan, I will be Xu Tianfang." ”
Make your own life, make your own decisions!
The old man trembled and pointed at him speechless, "You, you rebel!" ”
"I am not only a rebel, but also a rebel, you say that the way of heaven cannot be violated, I will show you against the sky. Dad, are you excited? Xu Zhan was a little crazy, and his neurotic demeanor was almost the opposite of his handsome and unparalleled face, "Don't get too excited, lest the Gu furnace will open for a while, and you won't be able to stand it!" ”
"You, you ......"
Suddenly, the Gu furnace made a sound, and the lid of the furnace slowly opened automatically.
The old man rushed up as soon as possible, lying on the edge of the Gu stove, brushing his sleeves to dust off the thick blood mist.
Xu Zhan was not in a hurry, standing on the edge of the Gu furnace, standing opposite to the old man.
It's quiet all around.
"Look!" Xu Zhan sneered, "It's coming out!" ”
The blood mist gradually dispersed, and the strong smell of blood permeated the entire medicine house, making people almost disgusting to smell.
At the bottom of the Gu furnace, there were two fat worms wriggling.
This was out of Xu Zhan's expectations, obviously only one Gu was put in, why did it end up being two Gu?
"A Gu twin?" The old man hesitated.
The two insects suddenly curled up into a ball, each forming a pill.
After the blood mist completely dissipated, the Gu pill shrank to the size of a grape seed.
Xu Zhan stretched out his hand and grabbed one, if it weren't for the old man's quick eyes, he was afraid that the other one would not be able to be saved.
"Put things down!" The old man shouted.
"Daddy! This thing is mine! Xu Zhan suddenly stuffed something into his mouth, and ran out of the window without saying a word.
"Come back!" The old man chased.
The news that the Gu furnace was opened, naturally, could not hide from King Qin in the palace, before dawn, the entire Xu clan was detained, just waiting for the patriarch and the young master to appear and hand over the elixir.
No one knows whether this elixir has been refined or failed, only that the patriarch and the young master have disappeared together.
According to the clansmen who were on duty that night, the patriarch was chasing the young master, and no one knew what happened.
King Qin can't get the elixir of life, and he slaughters one person a day!
The Xu clan is bleeding all over the ground.
But even so, the patriarch and young master of the Xu clan did not appear.
The old man searched all around, knowing that this elixir of life could not be handed over to the King of Qin, this king was easy to kill, if it was really immortal, he was afraid that it would harm the world, and he would be a sinner for the ages at that time.
However, if he doesn't go back, the Xu clan will be slaughtered.
The two sides struggled, and it was difficult to choose.
didn't find his son, didn't find the other half's Gu pill, what could he do when he went back? If you let that kid go outside, something might happen.
Who knows, he hasn't made a decision yet, and Xu Zhan has already made the decision for him.
Like a madman who has lost his aberration, overnight, the Xu clan was completely wiped out, and a large number of poisonous insects, snakes and ants completely wiped out the Xu clan, as if all thoughts and obstacles were cut off, and no one could restrain them from now on.
After the fall of the Xu family, the king of Qin died, and then the son of the king of Qin succeeded to the throne and was no longer entangled in the issue of the elixir of life, but for the death of the Xu family, he made a name for going to sea indiscriminately, and quietly covered up such strange things.
The old man had planned to collect the corpse, but in the end, he didn't even see the corpse of the clansmen, and with the lesson of the previous time, he knew why!
The death of the Xu clan was so tragic that no one in the entire village or town dared to step into it easily.
When the old man turned back, he found that Xu Zhan was back again, this time he was even more crazy, taking the bones of the Xu clan to refine Gu, and throwing them all into the Gu refining furnace, so crazy and formless, he was already out of the scope of people.
Ruthless to death, vicious and ruthless to this point, what kind of person is it?
The old man didn't know what Xu Zhan was refining, but he knew that he was definitely not a good person, and the only one who could stop him in the world was himself, who was a father!
In that battle of the medicine house, Xu Zhan was nailed to the medicine house by the scepter, until he ran out of breath, the old man took out the things in his body, and took the Gu refining furnace to refine the ordinary things, and stayed away from here.
It's just that no one thought that the things in Xu Zhan's body were not so easy to take away, and the earthworm could be broken into several pieces, so that he could escape, and this immortal Gu was like this.
Xu Zhan did not die, from now on, he is Xu Tian's destiny, and he is no longer controlled by anyone.
It's just that the part of the Gu that was taken away must be taken back to be considered complete, otherwise every other round, he will have to suffer the pain of Gu worm backlash, which makes him very unhappy.
The Xu family in the royal city was destroyed, and the Xu family who were exiled outside passed it on, changed their name and surname, and was no longer the Xu family. It can be Korean, it can be Lee, all kinds of surnames, just hoping to survive.
These people are gifted, and they are highly valued in every dynasty and generation, but they are feared by the superiors, and in the end they are either hunted down or killed. Over time, there is a rule within the clan that they will no longer enter the court.
Until one day, the old man brought the Phoenix Gu to find the current patriarch of the Guardian Clan.
The secret of immortality, I don't know why it began to spread again, in desperation, the Protector took this secret into the mountains and forests, and from then on he was incognito and never entered the world again. The other part of the people who protect the clan went to the outside of the customs and became the witch clan of Yingguo, and later the witch doctor clan of Yingguo.
This phoenix Gu was originally made from a Gu that Xu Tianming had not completely refined, and continued to be refined, so it was both good and evil.
In the years of raising the Phoenix Gu, he actually gave birth to something similar to the thing in Xu Tianming's body, this thing is extremely yin and evil, neither born nor dead, and is called the Soul Returning Gu. The protector had no choice but to find the ancestor again and pray for a way to save him.
The old man originally thought that if he killed Xu Tianming, took out his Gu and destroyed it, then it would be impossible for this thing to reappear in the world, but now that such an evil thing has been reborn, he knows that his son must not be dead, and this thing will reappear in the world, and it will inevitably find the source, making Xu Tianming even more evil and ruthless.
In desperation, the old man used the technique of controlling the Gu to suppress the Soul Returning Gu, and the Protector Clan combined the power of the elders to send the Soul Returning Gu out of the gate and hand it over to the Wu Clan.
The Wu clan used the city of the setting sun and combined the power of the whole city to suppress the Soul Returning Gu, so that it was trapped forever in the desert, and could no longer be freed.
The Phoenix Gu was covered with a veil of mystery, and everyone said that the Protector had a treasure and could live forever.
How many people went one after another, just trying to find the station of the protectors, but they all returned in vain.
The forest, either lost or rampant with wild beasts, has no way to find it......
It wasn't until later that Xu Tianming appeared.
The Wu Clan has weakened, and it is unlikely that they will open the Sunset City and open the altar.
Moreover, if he wants to go to the desert, the things in Xu Tianming's body can't withstand the sun, unless his body temperature drops to the lowest and appears in the desert as a dead man, then those little guys hiding in his body can hold on to the desert.
has lived for a long time, and has never had an opponent, which is really boring.
Xu Tianming felt that he should find something to do, such as...... The remnants of the clansmen are his vessels to him. Even his own body was borrowed.
When the old man killed him, he died once, and his body was finally eaten away by Gu worms, and he was no longer usable. Like Han Busu later, he relied on fighting poison to maintain his broken body, and he actually found the most suitable body.
The distinction between the Wu clan and the Hu clan is actually very simple, the Hu clan practices serious Gu arts, and the side door used by the Wu clan is very similar to him back then. At that time, the Wu clan and the Hu clan had not yet been completely separated, but they disagreed, and the separation was a matter of time.
What's even more amazing is that this body has pure blood, which is really a rare and good hostel.
He also tried to go to the desert, but unfortunately in the end he couldn't stand the heat in the desert, and when he quit, he was discovered by the old man, but unfortunately, the old man killed him once, but he couldn't do it again, and killed the second time.
Because of this, he knew that the old man had been looking for him, so he thought of a great way to release the things in his body a little bit, and find a host at random, and the things in the old man's body could be found in the past, but unfortunately he looked for it again and again, and finally failed to find anyone.
After a long time, the old man lost his patience, so he used the scepter that killed his son back then to make a clay figurine in the cave outside Blackwater City, and injected the figurines into it to make it with a scepter.
So much so that Xu Tianming's split plum blossom plan no longer worked.
The old man took away the complete elixir, and Xu Tianming's body was incomplete, and it was because of this that he wanted to refine all the clansmen into Gu to make up for his own shortcomings.
Who knows......
But now, as long as he gets the Soul Rejuvenation Gu, he no longer has to be afraid of the old man.
When the Soul Returning Gu is released, the whole world will be his own!
However, the specific location of the Sunset City is indeed a problem, he has limited physical strength and energy, it is impossible to go alone, and he is afraid that the old man will catch up again.
has lived for thousands of years, and he still looks like a teenager.
Xu Tianming squatted by the river, looking at the faces reflected in the river, he was really full of emotion, "It's okay if you can't die, it's a rare thing, the more you look at this face, the more you like it!" ”
Get up and look around.
The mountains and forests are dense, either wild beasts or wild fruits, in order to avoid the old man's tracking, in order to find the people who protect the clan, Xu Tianming feels that he is about to become a wild man!
A woman's screams could be heard in the distance, as if a fight had begun.
These ordinary people are so annoying, they fight and kill at every turn, either kill them all, or don't make a move, half-life, the most annoying.
He didn't want to make a move, and he didn't bother to do it.
As soon as the little ones come out, the old man will surely find him.
He turned to leave, but a woman ran past him like crazy.
Not far away is the official road, probably from the official road, it should be a woman from a big family, otherwise how could it cause such a disaster?
At that glance, Xu Tianming also saw that this woman was born very well, with a delicate face, delicate facial features, and tears in the corners of her eyes.
Although it was a moment, his eyesight was excellent, and he could see clearly the size of the pearl embedded in the tip of her shoe. If you can afford to use such a good thing, you should be the daughter of an official eunuch.
Behind are bandits, chasing fiercely one by one.
Xu Tianming took a few steps out of the way, who knew that these people didn't even let him go, shouting in their mouths, robbed the emperor's family, killing one is killing, it is better to kill everyone!
This is ridiculous, Xu Tianming, a monster who has lived for a long time, is still being chased and cut down by these descendants?
I didn't want to go on a killing spree today, who knows......
When he made this move, he startled the woman who ran away.
I saw the young man in front of him, with picturesque eyebrows and vigorous skills, who cleaned up the person neatly and neatly, and his body was not stained with any dirt, and when he wrung the neck of the last robber, blood gushed out of the man's mouth.
Xu Tianming quickly retreated, he didn't like such things as blood, but he liked the things in his body very much. The feeling of displeasure came to his heart, and he casually threw the person out, wiping his hands with a handkerchief in disgust.
As soon as he turned around, he just met the woman's grateful eyes, and her beautiful face, with tears and a little starlight falling from the treetops, was really good-looking.
But Xu Tianming is not interested in women, he never wants these ethereal things.
Women in the world are the same, what feelings do you want, what love do you want?
Scold......
He didn't have that.
Naturally, I don't bother to entangle!
"Thank you for saving your life!" The woman saluted gently.
Fang Cai ran too quickly, his hair was messy, and his face was extremely embarrassed. Probably feeling ashamed, when she got up, she subconsciously lowered her head, brushed the placket on her body, and stroked the messy green silk with trembling hands.
Xu Tianming didn't think much about it, just saw that the hairpin on her bun was about to fall off, and took a handful.
The woman was horrified, stared at him like a ghost, and quickly retreated, as if he was going to eat her.
Tightening the hairpin in his hand, Xu Tianming frowned, "I didn't do anything, and I won't do anything to you." This hairpin, yours! Pay you back! "Read with a quick eye _
