Chapter 208: The Undercurrent is Turbulent, and the Law of the Human Pill
Daqian, the nineteenth year of Yuantai, the first day of August.
Yunjing City.
The city stretches for nearly 100 miles, and the city wall is as high as eight zhang, towering like a mountain.
There are 18 city gates, 4 corner towers, 6 water gates, 372 enemy platforms, and countless pheasant battlements.
There are 160,000 registered households, with a total population of more than one million.
This mega city with a population of one million, above the overall situation of feng shui, this is a veritable heart of the dynasty and the head of the dragon vein.
Through the official roads extending in all directions, the Grand Canal runs through the north and south, and it is swallowing a large number of people and logistics all the time, as well as the majestic atmosphere of the entire Daqian Dynasty.
Lin Chen and Xu Yue, two people, directly followed the crowd from outside, and entered the huge Yunjing City.
"Here, it is worthy of being the capital of the dynasty, even if it is at this time, it is still so, it is ...... lively" Xu Yue looked up and sighed lightly.
I saw the surrounding crowds rolling, sparkling cars and horses, gold bricks paving the ground, and jade trees in rows.
At a glance, the momentum is magnificent, full of the great state style of all countries coming to the dynasty; Look at it again, the atmosphere is magnificent, and it is innumerable magnificent.
Especially on the Grand Canal in the south of the city, the infinite white sail shadows are connected like clouds.
Ships loaded with fruits, vegetables, grain, cloth, and all kinds of curiosities came along the river, bringing a steady stream of products from all over the country to Beijing.
The Grand Canal is more than 4,000 miles long and connects the five major water systems of the Dagu River, the Turbidity River, the Whirlpool River, the Tianqian River and the Fuchun River.
It also connects several of the most important water dragon veins in the country.
Therefore, even if the drought in the north gradually deepened, the rest of the Daqian Dynasty was starving.
Yunjing City, not only has not been affected, but has become more and more prosperous.
"It's just the last rays of life." Walking on the prosperous street, Lin Chen's face was normal, after all, it was more lively than this, he had seen it, and he was not surprised.
"Due to the chaos in the world, most of the middle and lower classes have poured in, bringing a greater amount of manpower, material and financial resources."
"The large-scale purchase of houses, the purchase of properties, and the clothing, food, housing and transportation of family members and servants have directly contributed to the unprecedented prosperity of all walks of life in the capital."
"In addition, in order to survive, the labor force is extremely cheap, which has become the so-called pop ......"
"But this is only temporary, with the passage of time, the chaos in the world expands, the grain harvest is poor, the materials are reduced, if there is not enough material inflow, the wealth is taken away by the top level, in the absence of a solution, sooner or later it will collapse."
At this moment, the scene of Yunjing City is like pouring a bowl of hot oil on the fire, no matter how you look at it, it is a prosperous scene of cooking oil on fire.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just a scene before the light returns.
After all, when the whole world falls into calamity, but nothing is done, it is only a matter of time before the dynasty falls into reincarnation.
Of course, this is put in the past.
After all, since there was a heavenly law and descended to the world, the reincarnation of the ages has changed, which seems to be the atmosphere of the last years of the dynasty, and perhaps, there will be many variables.
Therefore, just in case, and in order to completely break the monopoly of the family and the royal family, almost all the forces in the world have put aside their prejudices against each other and gathered in Yunjing, wanting to send this dynasty on its last journey.
Not only must we completely end this Great Qian Dynasty, but also end the reincarnation of thousands of years, and completely create a new era that belongs to these cultivators who have cultivated immortal laws!
Therefore, the major forces poured out of the nest and wanted to fight to the death here.
As for who wins and who loses, no one worries, because no matter which side they do, they don't think they will lose.
"The other forces have been separated, and they have infiltrated this Yunjing City, and when the main force comes to converge, they will set off a big change in one fell swoop, seize the Xuanwu Gate, and destroy the Imperial Palace City." Xu Yue said, "I don't know how the Imperial Family plans to deal with it." ”
"Although the power of the family is huge, they are all scattered all over the world, and they can't gather in Yunjing, and they don't want to have an existence on their heads, so in this operation, they are more likely not to make a move, but instead sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, hoping to lose both." Lin Chen analyzed.
"And even if they really make a move, in terms of hand-to-hand combat, these people who are the best at fighting for power and controlling the overall situation, if they really fight, I'm afraid they are not your opponents. After all, there are only one or two people in the family. ”
"In other words, if we really fight, we actually only need to face the forces of the old emperor? That's a lot easier. Xu Yue turned his head and said.
"Not necessarily, after all, this old emperor is still a little interesting, and ......"
And me......
"Huh?"
At this time, Lin Chen seemed to sense something and turned his head to look.
I saw that in the crowd, a middle-aged man in a green shirt was looking at them.
After noticing Lin Chen's gaze, he withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.
"What's wrong?" Xu Yue asked.
"Keep up." Lin Chen raised his legs and left, Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and still followed.
At the same time, in the Imperial City Palace, the nine-fold pavilion, and the Yuyu Qiong Building.
In a large and bright hall, in the center, was a huge and burning Dan furnace.
All kinds of precious genius treasures, scarce herbs, were thrown into the Dan furnace as if they were worthless.
It has been burning for nearly a hundred days and has never been extinguished.
But at this moment, the fire in the furnace began to grow smaller.
Yu Fu, who had been standing on the side for a long time, stepped forward, poked his hand into it, withdrew it, and then saluted the old emperor behind him.
"Your Majesty, the elixir is almost ready."
"Hahaha, good, good, good!" Behind him, the old emperor, who was far older than ten years ago and had always been moody, shouted in surprise at this moment.
"It's not in vain that I have paid so much, and I finally got this result today, good, good...... Ahem, ahem! It seemed that the surprise was excessive, and the old emperor only felt that his body was weak, and he couldn't stop coughing.
"Your Majesty!" Yu Fu hurriedly stepped forward, took out a blood-colored elixir, and gave it to the old emperor.
"Whew-" After taking the pill, the old emperor only felt a burst of warmth in his abdomen, and at the same time, the wrinkles on his face had decreased a lot.
After he recovered, he didn't continue to ask about the elixir in the furnace, but instead changed his conversation and asked to the side, "How are those untouchables lately?" ”
"Daomen and Taiping Dao are not involved in this matter, the Wumeng has been destroyed, and the Tianyin Sect, the Wuxun Dao, the Wuzong, the Beggar Gang, the Miaojiang Gu Clan, and even the Northern Barbarians have all started to invade, and they are expected to arrive within a few days." In the empty hall, an old eunuch with a soft face replied to the side.
"Boom! Okay, very good, here, here......" The old emperor's face was cold, but the corners of his mouth couldn't stop sneering.
"Your Majesty, let me remind you that the more people are close to each other, the more they can be deprived of everything. But if it's an outsider, I'm afraid it's ......," Yu Fu on the side couldn't help but say.
The Ren Dan Method is another path that he has walked out of according to the law passed down by the immortals.
There are two types of paths.
The first is to swallow a heavenly treasure and continuously nurture the medicinal properties of this miraculous medicine according to a specific exercise method.
Then, take all the medicines of a complete pill and mix it with other adjuvants, and then the vitality of the pill's effect will be born.
After being infiltrated with a unique medicinal qi, this special vitality will condense into a pill, and the user can use it to take away some of the things on the host's body, such as cultivation, ability, or ...... Shou Yuan, but the host of the human pill that was taken away, will fall into death.
The advantage of this method is that it can plunder the power of others to the greatest extent, and there is not much hidden danger, but it is demanding on the host of the human pill method, because it must be a blood relative.
The second method is to directly use people as the main medicine, give other medicinal materials, and refine them into a pill.
But in this way, it is easy to be affected by the breath of others, the body is damaged, the life span is greatly reduced, and even becomes a madman, so the old emperor chooses the former.
"It doesn't matter." Knowing that this would have serious consequences, the old emperor said this sentence with a sneer, "Don't you forget, I'm not, and there are a lot of princes and princesses?" ”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what do you mean......" Yu Fu was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and said with wide eyes.
He suddenly found that although he created the Human Dan Fa, in terms of cruelty and ruthlessness, I am afraid that he is really not as good as the person in front of him.
"I've raised them for so many years, let them pay a little, it's not too much. Besides, even my crown prince is lying in this Dan furnace, what is there to add them? The old emperor's face became expressionless, but he couldn't help but make the two people present shudder.
The heart of eating long lives is already against human morality.
But he even wanted to let them eat those who had cultivated the Inner Dan Method through other princes and grandsons, seize their power, and then swallow them again, so that he could combine immortality and great power!
"I do all this for the sake of the common people in the world." The old emperor stared at Yu Fu's eyes in a daze, and said word by word, "Only when immortality and great power are concentrated on me, can I destroy all the opposition forces in this world in one fell swoop, and create a beautiful country according to my ideas, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, yes......" The two hurriedly lowered their heads.
"Very well, let's go down." The old emperor had a kind but strange smile on his face.
After both of them had gone down, the old emperor turned around and faced the huge, burning Dan furnace.
He looked at this scene, his eyes were a little distracted, and he couldn't help muttering: "Emperor, don't worry, soon, everyone in the world will go down to accompany you, and at that time, you won't be lonely......"
"And I will gather all of your expectations, combine immortality and great power, and become the only immortal in this world!"
The words that made people smell cold echoed in the whole hall, and in the Dan furnace, the blazing, bright and bright flames, reflected out, but it was a distorted, like an abyss!
