Her appearance obviously frightened Tang Zixi, and she snorted: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it, I'll just ask casually." ”

"No, I have to tell you. Mingyin quickly stopped crying and said, "Because this has a lot to do with my story." ”

Her next words made Tang Zixi stand up in surprise, staring at the woman with the same expression as usual for a long time and couldn't speak, and only after a long time did she tremble and say, "Yinyan Fruit can really make people immortal?"

Mingyin pulled the corners of his mouth and showed a disdainful smile, and said, "Otherwise, why do you think the emperor of Great Qin would give us salt and iron tools." Hmph, if it weren't for the barren land we have there, where would we need to make such an unequal exchange. ”

"Salt and iron...... Is it very valuable?" Tang Zixi didn't understand, in her cognition, salt was just the most ordinary condiment, as for iron tools, they were everywhere in the Iron Blood Camp, and any one taken out was a good weapon that had been tempered for thousands of years. So she couldn't understand why someone would exchange the elixir of immortality for these things that were so ordinary to her.

Mingyin looked at her and sneered, and sneered: "Sure enough, it's the pampered eldest lady!"

"Not anymore. Tang Zixi was poked in the sore spot, and his head twisted to stop looking at her.

Mingyin said faintly: "Immortality is the premise of living first, but we are barren loess everywhere, and there is nothing except a small amount of grass and that silver flame fruit tree. Compared with the living life, an ethereal immortal life is nothing. Therefore, for the sake of the people and for the sake of his people, our merciful king would rather exchange the precious silver flame fruit for some necessities of life. ”

Tang Zixi thought about it sideways, and reluctantly agreed with her statement, and soon frowned again: "Why have I never heard of this?"

"Do you think your emperor will tell this secret to anyone else? Don't say it's you, even his queen doesn't know. ”

Mingyin looked at the innocent girl and smiled, and explained patiently: "Although the Silver Flame Fruit has the effect of immortality, it has a fatal flaw, that is, it must be refined to make a myelin-washing pill before it can be consumed, otherwise it will be a deadly poison. Speaking of this, the words changed sharply, and said, "Back then, we were using the silver flame fruit to attack the poison to force out the yin spider in the king's body, although it was successful, the king still ......."

Tang Zixi waited for a long time without waiting for the following words, and couldn't help but ask, "Or what?"

Mingyin shook his head and didn't answer, but continued with his previous words: "The amount of Yinyan Fruit used in each Myelin Cleansing Pill accounts for ninety percent of our annual output, so we must ensure that every step of the refining process is extremely accurate, otherwise it will be in vain." The most important thing is that it must be taken once a year for ten years. ”

"What will happen if there is a break?" Tang Zixi was a little curious.

Mingyin raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "It won't be anything, it's just that the muscles and veins that have been reshaped by the Cleansing Pill will suddenly burst one day and die ugly." ”

"What is this called?" Tang Zixi couldn't help but sneer, and then thought of an important question, "Does this Your Majesty know?"

"Ten years, hey, hey, ten years. Mingyin didn't answer her words, and suddenly laughed nervously, and then cried again.

Tang Zixi frowned when she looked at her crying and laughing, and began to search around, although she had the idea of dying in her heart, but the ants were still stealing life, and she still didn't want to die here in her heart. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but her gaze couldn't help but fall on the vine net, and I don't know when the group of dried corpses hung on the net again, turning into the appearance of a cloth bag again. The origin of those dried corpses has always haunted her. I can't understand why there are these dried corpses here?

"They're all my people!" Mingyin said suddenly.

Tang Zixi Huo Ran turned around, his eyes almost popped out, looking at the woman with tears on her face that had not dried up, and the sentence 'poisonous woman' in her heart still didn't come out.

"You don't have to look at me like that. Mingyin seemed to see through her thoughts, and frowned, "I didn't kill them." After a pause, he continued, "They are the most devout people, and they have volunteered to protect the king here, and to put it more bluntly, they have all committed suicide." ”

Tang Zixi was not so easy to deceive, his eyes began to search among the dry corpses, and soon found the location of the baby before, raised his hand and pointed: "What about him?"

Mingyin didn't reply, and said lightly: "He is too." ”

Tang Zixi stood up and said angrily: "You are stupid to me? That's just a baby, he will kill himself?"

Mingyin's legs swayed in the air, looking at the void and said faintly: "His mother said that he committed suicide, that is, suicide." ”

"It's bullshit. Tang Zixi laughed angrily, paused and added, "It's really sad to have such a mother." She doesn't deserve to be a mother at all. ”

"Who's to say it isn't. Mingyin's expression remained unchanged, and he still said lightly, "But in order to regenerate the king, his mother can't help it." ”

"You?" Tang Zixi heard that something was wrong, and a bold idea popped up in his heart, "Could it be ......"

Mingyin clapped his hands and stood up from the stone beam, turned to look directly at the small cloth bag, his eyes were full of tenderness, and said, "You guessed right, he was my child, and he was only one year and eight months old when he died. Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Tang Zixi, his face had changed to a smiling expression, "If there is an opportunity for immortality in front of you, do you want it or not?"

Tang Zixi hadn't recovered from the previous shock, and opened his mouth and said, "Don't." ”

"Why?" Mingyin asked, "Don't you want to be immortal?"

Tang Zixi pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Where is the real immortality? That's all nonsense to deceive children." Even if what you say is true. But don't forget, every drink and peck has a certain number, if you can really live forever, the price paid or the corresponding merit must be reciprocal, not even Your Majesty, just an ordinary person like me like dust can bear this blessing? Don't say it's you, even I don't believe it. ”

Mingyin flickered his eyes and looked at the girl who was becoming more and more excited, his eyebrows gradually relaxed, and there was a smile of approval in his eyes, and he nodded: "If everyone thinks like you, our Xianguo will not be destroyed." ”

"Xianguo?" Tang Zixi was stunned when he heard this, and he always felt as if he had heard this name somewhere.

Mingyin said lightly: "Maybe the name Tumen Pass can remind you of some more things." ”

Tang Zixi finally remembered, and suddenly realized: "It turns out that you are the country of projectiles that intended to collude with the Tatars fifteen years ago, but was destroyed by the Tatars. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly covered his mouth, and looked at the woman in her early twenties in front of her, unable to speak anymore.

Xianguo was indeed a vassal state of Great Qin before, and as Mingyin said, the envoys of Xianguo would come to the court every year with a large number of gifts to the emperor, and then return to China with various gifts from the emperor in return. However, since the battle of Tumen Pass fifteen years ago, not only has Xianguo become a ruin, but even Wuhuan has been in a state of collapse since then, and can no longer threaten the northwest border of Great Qin.

Tang Zixi knew this past so clearly, it was entirely because she happened to be born in the year of the Battle of Tumen Pass, and everyone in the Tang Mansion said that she was a lucky star, and she let her father win the battle as soon as she was born. And the emperor at that time was not the current Li Xiao, but the first emperor Li Yan. Although she didn't know how the first emperor died, she had also heard that what was buried in the imperial tomb now was not the remains of the first emperor, but just a well-dressed mound, which alluded to Mingyin's statement that he died ugly.

"Fart!"

Mingyin suddenly became angry, his facial features, which were still delicate, began to distort and deform, his teeth gradually lengthened, and his body expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a moment, it turned into a humanoid monster with long hair all over its body, and let out an earth-shattering roar at Tang Zixi with its bloody mouth open.

"Xuan!" Tang Zixi looked at the familiar scene in front of him, and muttered in his mouth: "I should have thought that you are the one who is the one." ”

She thought it was a little strange before, and it stands to reason that as a zombie supreme, her combat power should not be so weak, but as soon as she saw the gossip mirror, she showed no fighting spirit. At first, she really thought it was the power of the gossip mirror, but only now did she understand that the other party had been hiding her strength, and the purpose was to lure herself to open the mechanism and bring it here. From this point of view, the white jade wall she shattered before should be the real thing that imprisons her. It's a pity that it's too late to regret it now.

She looked coldly at the behemoth in front of her and said, "What happened to your nameless senior?"

"When death comes, there is still leisure to care for others. "If I don't give him the opportunity to pass on his skills to you, how can I get here, and I should be grateful to him." But there is no chance, he has killed countless people during his lifetime, and now he should have reached the eighteenth layer of hell and will never be reborn. ”

"You are the one who should go to hell and never be reborn!" Tang Zixi said sharply.

"Stinky girl!" growled, "I was going to make your death more comfortable, but now it seems that there is no need. ”

Tang Zixi also let go, the raging anger burned in her chest, and she said loudly without fear: "Am I wrong? You actually killed so many people for the sake of that so-called king, for a country that has been destroyed for more than ten years. Don't let them settle in the ground, one by one they hang here like garbage. But you keep saying that they are voluntary. I've never seen you so shameless and vicious. From beginning to end, it is only you who is willing to do it, and you are the only one! That is your own volition, not someone else's. If you still have a shred of kindness, you should spare these people, let their souls rest in peace, and let them be reborn as human beings!"

"Shut up!"
