There is thought in life, and there is desire. If you think about it, there will be desires. If you think about it, you will be infinite. All kinds of desires in your heart will form. When desires reach a certain level, they will form greed, greed for beauty, greed for money, greed for power, etc.

This is the commonality of all people and even all living beings with independent consciousness. If you have independent thoughts, you will inevitably have self-needs, thus forming desires in your personal hearts. However, some people can suppress their desires well and can be rationally suppressed and have strong self-control. However, some people will be swallowed by desires, and their desires will be infinitely amplified, and they will completely sink into endless desires until they are destroyed.

In Baima Town, early in the morning, the sun had not risen, and the morning mist on the distant hills had not dissipated. A large group of people gathered at the gate of the town, with a total of four or five hundred people. More than one hundred of these people were thugs of the Wang family, each carrying the kind of private musket on his shoulders. There were about a hundred people from the security team of the town office in the town, led by Zhao Wei, the captain of the security team, and more than two or three hundred were young and strong men in Baima Town.

Li Qing was also in the team. In front of the team, there were several tall Wang family thugs standing next to him, looking at Li Qing as if he was looking at a prisoner. Li Qing lowered his head and did not let others see his face.

There were more than 500 people in a group, and Wang Youcai stood at the front of the team, with Taoist Master Tianji standing side by side. There was also a little Taoist priest behind Taoist Master Tianji, who was Taoist Master Tianji's apprentice.

The team was in a vast and countless people from Baima Town gathered behind the team, all of whom were watching the fun. Men, women, young and old looked back and couldn't see the end, nearly ten thousand people.

Looking at the huge team of more than 500 people behind him, each holding weapons, with more than 200 muskets and two homemade earth cannons, Wang Youcai was shocked and confident.

Last night, Wang Youcai didn't sleep all night because his mind was full of ginseng essence and his mind was full of thoughts and thoughts, such as becoming a god and becoming an immortal, for him, money, power, and women, because with his current status, he is no longer short of these. He is now the best in Baima Town. As for women, his family is already eight houses.

But health is what Wang Youcai desires most now. He is in his fifties and can clearly feel that his body is already a little overwhelmed, especially his eight wives at home, which makes him more and more clear that his health is getting worse and worse. But the more he does this, the less he wants to die and wants to survive, because Wang Youcai, power, power and women, and doesn't want to die just like this.

So when I learned about ginseng essence, I saw that Li Yi, who had been in bed for a year, improved overnight and even looked younger for more than ten years. The desire and greed in his heart rose like a weed, making him not fall asleep all night, and his mind was full of ginseng essence. Therefore, this scene happened. Wang Youcai swore in his heart that he must get ginseng essence, and no one could stop him, anyone!

"Enter the mountain!"

Finally, Wang Youcai took a deep breath, waved his hand, and a team of more than 500 people immediately drove into the mountains and forests.

Li Qing was watched by four Wang family thugs walking in front of the team, and he kept lowering his head because he was worried about the hatred in his eyes.

"I discovered ginseng essence, it is mine, and no one of you can take it away!"

Deep in his heart, Li Qing shouted loudly, full of hatred.

He discovered the ginseng essence first, so in Li Qing's opinion, the ginseng essence is his. Even if he didn't catch it, it was his. However, Wang Youcai relied on his power to capture him indiscriminately yesterday. Now he is still forcing a team to find ginseng essence. It is completely a robbery. In his heart, his possessiveness for ginseng essence and Wang Youcai's forced force, Li Qing was also full of hatred.

However, he didn't dare to show it, because he knew that if he showed it now, his life would be lost. The only way was to find the ginseng essence later. If he could find the ginseng essence first and eat the ginseng essence and become a god, then he would not have to worry about Wang Youcai and these people.

"When I find the ginseng essence, and after I eat the ginseng essence, I want Wang Youcai, your Wang family to be destroyed, and you Wang Youcai, don't even think of any of you Wang Youcai's legs."

Li Qing roared in his heart, full of hatred, and his eyes were full of resentment and coldness, but because he kept walking in front with his head down, no one paid attention.

The large army was driving, crossing mountains and ridges. It was much faster than Li Qing himself alone the day before yesterday. After all, he came here all the day before yesterday, and he was taking herbs and coming here all the time. There were all kinds of delays and detours in the middle. Now he went straight to the destination and walked straight, so naturally it was much faster. He set out early in the morning and took more than four hours and eleven o'clock to arrive at the destination, which was one or two hours ahead of Li Qing's arrival here before.

"Mr. Wang, it's here. I found the ginseng essence here the day before yesterday."

When he arrived at the place where he found the ginseng essence before, Li Qing pointed it to Wang Youcai, but he still lowered his head and did not dare to let Wang Youcai see his face and eyes, worried that he would expose his emotions if he accidentally didn't hide it.

However, Wang Youcai didn't look at Li Qing much at all. To him, ordinary people like Li Qing were like minions. If they really wanted to solve the problem, they just meant one sentence. They were too lazy to pay more attention to it and looked at Taoist Master Tianji next to him.

"Master, do you see?"

When Taoist Master Tianji heard this, he walked forward and walked to the place where the ginseng essence was lying before that Li Qing pointed out, and stretched out his hand to his disciple behind him.

"Good"

When the little Taoist heard this, he immediately took out a gossip compass, a few pieces of talisman paper and three incense sticks from the bag in front of him and handed it to Taoist Master Tianji.

Taoist Master Tianji took the thing, placed the compass flat on the ground where the ginseng essence was lying on it, lit three incense sticks and inserted it on the ground, then held the talisman paper seal in his right hand, and shouted lightly.

"Gods from all directions, listen to my orders and forgive me!"

puff!

With a light sound, the talisman paper in Taoist Master Tianji's hand ignited spontaneously, and then turned into a strange flame, floating around for a few times, and suddenly sank into the ground.

Swish! Swish!

The moment the flames sank into the ground, the pointer in the Bagua compass that had been put down on the ground also quickly turned. First, it turned violently, and then the pointer stopped and pointed to the upstream of the river.

Wang Youcai and others behind were surprised to see it. Seeing the pointer in the Bagua compass stopped, Wang Youcai asked impatiently.

Taoist Master Tianji also picked up the Bagua compass on the ground and stood up, smiled at Wang Youcai and said.

"Congratulations to Mr. Wang, I have found the direction of the ginseng essence, just in the upstream of the river where my pointer points."

Wang Youcai was overjoyed when he heard this, and was shocked. He immediately swept his hard work along the way and said to the crowd behind him.

"Detect, upstream of the river, those who found traces of ginseng essence were rewarded with 100 yuan, and those who caught it were rewarded with 10,000 yuan."

boom!

Suddenly, the crowd became excited. Nowadays, ordinary people have earned less than a few dozen yuan a year after working as a coolie. Wang Youcai’s reward money was undoubtedly a huge sum of money. Suddenly, the crowd became excited and rushed to the upstream of the river.

It is said that people die for money and birds die for food, which is even more so in this turbulent era.

Of course, there are also some people who have selfish thoughts in the crowd, but naturally they will not express it stupidly at this time.

Wang Youcai obviously knew this very well, so after a group of people rushed up, he whispered to the trustees who were following him.

"Dahu, you bring some trustworthy people. Looking at these people, if you are not honest and dare to have bad intentions, do you know what to do, especially the boy from the Li family, be careful?"

"Yes, don't worry, lord, if anyone is not honest and dares to have bad intentions, I will kill him."

The confidant who was ordered immediately said harshly, and immediately brought some thugs from the Wang family to follow him.

"Master, let's go."

After giving instructions to his subordinates, Wang Youcai looked at Taoist Master Tianji next to him and said.

"good."

Taoist Master Tianji smiled and said politely, as if he had not seen Wang Youcai's previous instructions.

Going up the river, the group set off on the road again.

The mountains and trees are high and deep, so it is not easy to walk on. From time to time, you will have to detour the road ahead with high ridges and steep cliffs, so the speed on the road is not fast.

Wang Youcai and Taoist Master Tianji were at the end, and were protected by seven or eight thugs from the Wang family.

Before I knew it, more than an hour passed, and it was noon.

"Is this a disaster?"

Upstream of the river, Lin Tianqi, who was next to the riverside in the bamboo forest outside the Xiaoyuan Mansion of Zhulin, suddenly looked at the lower reaches of the river and felt a large number of people coming from the lower reaches of the river.
Chapter completed!
