After Zhang Han and the two glanced at each other, they followed quietly.

The yard is still the same yard, the firewood is still two piles of firewood, the iron frame is still the same iron frame, and the copper stove is still the same copper stove.

However, unlike before, behind the pyre, there are two iron cages, one large and one small.

In the big cage, what was locked up was a white-fronted insect with a tail that was a little long, but now this big insect has long lost the momentum of being the king of the mountains and forests.

Covered in blood, it didn't seem to have the strength to open its eyes now, so it could only lie there, panting for breath for a while.

And in that small cage, there was a middle-aged white-faced man who looked a little weak.

Perhaps because he heard the footsteps, the white-faced middle-aged man opened his eyes and looked at the place where the footsteps came.

"Great king, great king, the criminal is wronged, wronged!"

咣啷啷~咣啷啷~

The door of the iron cage was shaken by this person.

The one who was locked in the cage was originally a fourth-grade civil official of Dawu, Xu Sheng.

Last year, there was a sea disaster in the southeast of Dawu, and Wu Xin sent this person to relieve the disaster.

As a result, what made Wu Xin angry was that this person was in the midst of disaster relief, and he openly withheld disaster relief funds!

Not only that, but this person also colluded with the local big households, so that nearly half of the money and grain allocated from the state treasury went to the hands of the big households!

That year, thousands of refugees died indirectly because of Xu Sheng's move!

Although after the incident, Wu Xin questioned all the people involved in the matter, and the main messenger Xu Sheng even sentenced him to death in the autumn of the next year.

But the innocent civilians who died will never come back alive.

"Humph!"

Facing Xu Sheng's call sign, Wu Xin just snorted coldly!

Those who regard human life as a mustard will be regarded by others!

"My lord, the guilty minister knows that he is wrong! Please also ask the king to spare the guilty minister for the sake of the criminal minister's conscientious work in the past!"

Bang bang bang......

Xu Sheng called out while kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

"It's not impossible to spare you once, it's not impossible to spare you once!" Wu Xin looked at Xu Sheng condescendingly, and said with a glow in his eyes.

"Huh?"

Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then kowtowed even harder.

"Thank you, Your King, thank you!"

"Okay, don't knock, let me spare you once, but before I can spare you, I need a tester......"

"Tester?"

Xu Sheng's heart trembled, and then his heart trembled.

"The sinner is willing to share the worries of the king!"

"Very well! If you do a good job in this matter, of course it is impossible for the official to be reinstated, but it is not unacceptable to send you to the border to make a small county order. ”

"Thank you, Your King, thank you!"

Xu Sheng, who was only thinking about currying favor with Wu Xin, didn't notice how terrifying Wu Xin's eyes were when he looked at him!

"Okay, you stay in there first, and when I refine the Dan, I'll release you. ”

"Yes, yes, the sinner is commanded. ”

After sending Xu Sheng away, Wu Xin turned his feet and took the copper furnace in his hand from the iron frame.

From beginning to end, Zhang Ying and Han Wenzheng have been silently following behind Wu Xin.

"Little Dezi, bring me a dagger. ”

"Yes!"

When Xiao Dezi heard this, he hurriedly handed over the prepared dagger.

After taking the dagger, Wu Xin put the dagger in the copper furnace, and then took two steps forward and carried the copper furnace to the cage containing the tiger.

"Little Dezi, open the cage door. ”

"King, this ......" Xiao Dezi's face changed.

"If you want to open it, you will open it!"

"Wow!"

Click!

Click!

The sound of four buckles being opened sounded one after another.

Creak~

Immediately afterwards, the huge iron gate was opened by Xiao Dezi.

"Be careful, king!"

Seeing this, Xu Sheng next to him suddenly shouted with a nervous look on his face, when will he not show loyalty at this time?

But what disappointed him was that the three people in front of him, as if they hadn't heard it, didn't even look at him.

The white-fronted insect in the cage, after hearing the sound of the cage door opening, raised its eyelids with difficulty, and the huge tiger head tilted up slightly at the same time.

Looking at the big insect staring at him in the cage, Wu Xin raised his hand and took out the dagger in the copper furnace.

"I'm going to take a furnace of blood from you later. ”

Zheng!

The ten sharp claws on the two forelimbs of the big insect popped out.

"If you don't resist, I can spare you a tiger's life, as long as you are alive after the blood is taken. ”

"Roar~"

The big worm roared at Wu Xin, and I don't know if it really understood what Wu Xin said just now.

However, Wu Xin didn't care about the big worm's low roar, and after saying this, Wu Xin directly squatted in front of the big worm with the copper furnace.

Gollum~

Gollum~

Gollum~

Xiao Dezi, Han Wenzheng, and Xu Sheng collectively swallowed a mouthful of saliva at the same time.

However, Zhang Ying's complexion did not change significantly, because he was sure that he would pull Wu Xin back at the moment when he was in danger.

After staring at Wu Xin's eyes for a while, the big insect slowly closed its eyes under the surprise of several other people, and the claws that it popped out were also retracted by it.

"This ...... The king is truly a man of God!"

Xu Sheng hurriedly patted his ass, although no one still answered him.

"Very well! If you are lucky enough not to die this time, stay with me in the future. ”

Hum~

The big insect in the cage seemed to respond, and took two deep breaths.

Wu Xin's eyes lit up, and then he picked up the dagger and swiped it lightly at a wound on the shoulder of the big insect.

The wound, which had stopped bleeding, was bleeding again, and Wu Xin saw this, and hurriedly put the copper furnace on it.

Half a quarter of an hour has passed, and Wu Xin has already received most of the tiger's blood at this time.

After feeling that it was almost over, Wu Xin threw the dagger and stood up from the ground.

"Little Dezi, bandage it, don't let it die. ”

"Yes!"

After being reprimanded twice by Wu Xin, Xiao Dezi no longer dared to hesitate at Wu Xin's order, and now there was only one thought in his mind, that is, whatever the king asked him to do, he would do it!

While Xiao Dezi was treating the wounded tiger's wounds, Wu Xin carefully held the copper furnace and walked to the iron frame.

After stabilizing the copper furnace, Wu Xin brought dry firewood from the firewood stack, piled it up, and ignited it in one go.

"The king is going to do alchemy?"

Han Wenzheng's brow furrowed.

"Not bad!"

"What does it have to do with what the king said before?" Han Wenzheng's eyes flashed.

"Yes, the prime minister will watch patiently. ”

"Hmm. ”

Cuckoo~

After two incense sticks, the blood of the beast in the furnace boiled.
