The person who came ran to the side of the chief manager and glanced at Wu Mian, who was still lying on the ground, and the people around him. After hesitating for a moment, he leaned into the chief manager's ear and whispered a few words.

Before the man could finish speaking, the face of the chief steward had already changed, and he stared at the visitor and said, "How many days have you been out?

The person turned to the head of the housekeeper and said respectfully: "The little one is that I received a flying pigeon message this morning, and the secret language said that the honor guard has come out of Pingjin, according to the day and distance, the head of the horse will go to the sand dunes, as long as the horse is fast, the lord will meet the honor guard in the sand dune city on the tenth day."

Listening to the meaning of the words, he should be the post man who manages the flying pigeon in the post station. I just didn't know what had happened, and the Steward's face became very ugly. He ignored Wu Mian anymore, inquired about the location of the Yicheng sand dunes, and sent his subordinates to take his official seal as a guarantee, and borrowed a few fast horses from the nearby official office. With his men, together with Wu Mian, he rushed all the way in the direction of the sand dunes pointed out by Yi Cheng.

The steward did not dare to delay in the slightest along the way, except for sleeping, defecating, and changing horses at the inn, all the time was spent on horseback. After a long journey, we finally arrived at Dune City on the evening of the tenth day.

When everyone reached the sand dunes, they realized that something had happened. Dune City was surrounded by the First Emperor's Imperial Forest Army inside and outside, but fortunately, there were already eunuchs waiting at the city gate, and when they saw the arrival of the chief manager of Fang Shi and his party, without saying a word, he pulled the chief manager to change horses, and galloped all the way to the city.

The rest of the steward's subordinates stayed in place and were at a loss, although these people were all monks, but the current Dune City was like a palace, and no one dared to enter the inner city without the guidance of the chamberlain. Taken by the majesty of Qin Lu, he didn't dare to ask the Imperial Forest Army privately about what was going on, so he could only circle around the city gate back and forth. Among these people, only Wu Mian guessed a rough idea: Could it be that the First Emperor really had changed except for any changes, and his life was not long in coming?

About an hour later, another eunuch finally emerged from Dune. Everyone else didn't care, only asked Wu Mian by name, and then took Wu Mian into Dune City. Along the way, no matter how Wu Mian asked from the side, this eunuch didn't say a word. In the end, he was asked anxiously, and then said: "A good thing, a great good thing." Your Ruler has chosen you to be loyal to Your Majesty, and not everyone has such a blessing."

Hearing this, Wu Mian's heart was shocked, and while the eunuch didn't notice, he took out the elixir of immortality hidden in his sleeve, quietly put it in his mouth, and pressed it with the tip of his tongue, fortunately, the medicinal quality of this elixir was solid, so that it would not melt in his mouth, and it was impossible to see that Wu Mian still had foreign objects hidden in his mouth outside. , after turning the corner, you have already arrived at the official office in Dune City. At this time, the official office had been surrounded by layers of the Imperial Forest Army, and after the eunuch showed his waist card, he took Wu Mian to the inner office.

At this time, the internal government was already busy, and people kept coming in and out, except for the chief administrator, Wu Mian only knew a few palace scholars, as well as the medical officer in Xianyang Palace. At this moment, Li Si, who had seen him in the dojo not long ago, also appeared in the inner office. He is now covered in dust, and there is still a shadow of the prime minister of the Qin Empire. After entering the inner office, he ignored everyone, and immediately a eunuch took Li Si into the inner room.

Seeing Wu Mian's arrival, the chief steward ignored it at first, and continued to compare things with several court scholars. But it didn't take long for a eunuch to run out of the inner room in a panic, and he arrived at the side of the chief priest in a few steps, and after whispering a word, he took the chief steward and ran into the inner room.

It didn't take long for the chief priest to reappear in the inner office, but his face was pale, and his body couldn't stop trembling slightly. Several court scholars hurriedly gathered around, and after whispering a few words together, the faces of the court scholars also turned pale.

After several people finished discussing, the chief priest left the inner office with a few palace scholars. Wu Mian watched coldly, feeling bad in his heart, and after a while, the eunuch who had just brought Wu Mian in came to the inner palace again and took Wu Mian to a side hall.

When Wu Mian came in, there were already more than a dozen people inside, except for the chief of the Fang Shi, the palace Fang Shi, and the Imperial Forest Army, there were five ragged village men. Listening to the accent, they should be the people caught nearby.

The steward personally held a tray with six small porcelain vases. After glancing at Wu Mian, the manager turned his face to look at the five frightened village men, and said, "Each of you picks a porcelain bottle, which contains the elixir of immortality, and after eating it, you can live forever and live longer than Tianqi." It's cheap for you, why don't you come and get it?"

After the manager finished speaking, no one came to pick up the medicine. The manager raised his eyebrows, and when he was about to have a seizure, Wu Mian said coldly: "Lord Steward, how can you say that I am also a priest." Let me test the medicine, isn't it not very compliant?" Wu Mian pressed the pill given by Xu Fu under his tongue, and his words were a little unclear, but fortunately, the chief manager of Fang Shi thought that Wu Mian was frightened and lost his voice, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the moment.

The chief manager glanced at Wu Mian, sneered, picked up a porcelain bottle on the tray, and said, "Tell you clearly, now His Majesty the First Emperor has reached the image of running out of oil and withering the lamp, and the art of medicine and stone is no longer able to return to the sky." I can't wait for the old man surnamed Xu to come back from the Immortal Island, and now he can only take the elixir refined by me and all the generous people, and there is still a glimmer of life. Maybe Your Majesty can not only turn the crisis into peace, but also get the wonderful effect of immortality, this bottle of immortal elixir is personally refined by me according to the ancient immortal recipe, and it will be cheap for you now"

Wu Mian looked at the manager coldly, he recognized the porcelain bottle containing the elixir. When it was first refined, it was Wu Mian's deputy, and the manager didn't know where to get the recipe, saying that he wanted to refine the internal organs and meridians with poison to achieve the effect that all poisons would not invade and the body would not age. Unexpectedly, mercury was the king, twelve kinds of poisonous insects and poisonous herbs were used as ministers, and arsenic was used as a medicine to refine this highly poisonous elixir. After the elixir was refined, he even found a few slaves to test the medicine, but all of them died of poison on the spot. I heard that this elixir was destroyed by the chief of the Fang Shi, but I didn't expect him to hide it until now.

Seeing that Wu Mian didn't take the medicine above, the chief steward laughed and said, "Do you want a few military masters to feed you personally?"

"No, I'll do it myself" Wu Mian reached out with his left hand and took the porcelain bottle containing the pill, taking advantage of the fact that the manager's attention was on the porcelain bottle, his right hand was round and slapped the manager in the face. "Smack!" There was a crisp sound, and the chief steward was beaten to his knees, and the nosebleed came out on the spot. The tray in his hand was snatched by Wu Mian and fell to the ground with his backhand. Several porcelain bottles were shattered, and the pills inside were scattered all over the ground, and they were stirred together by Wu Mian with his feet, and he couldn't tell which porcelain bottle fell out.

The Imperial Forest Army behind the chief manager had already rushed up and punched and kicked Wu Mian. In the chaos, Wu Mian poured the pill in the porcelain bottle into his mouth and bit it together with the pill pressed under his tongue. He swallowed the blood in his mouth.

A burning sensation spread down the esophagus. After a while, the fists and feet of the Imperial Forest Army had no feeling on Wu Mian's body, and a sense of powerlessness hit, Wu Mian fell to the ground motionlessly, and blood kept flowing out of the seven orifices. In an instant, he had stopped breathing, and at the same time that Wu Mian stopped breathing, a male duck shouted loudly in the inner room: "Your Majesty is ......" This sentence only came to an abrupt end after being spoken. A bloody breath spread from the inner chamber. Then another voice sounded: "Your Majesty's dragon body has recovered, and His Majesty the First Emperor has sent an edict to set off tomorrow, and the tour distance ......will remain unchanged."

In the side hall, the chief manager breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news, wiped off the nosebleed, checked Wu Mian's body again, and after confirming that Wu Mian was dead, he said to the royal forest army on the side: "Bury him from a distance......
