He mustered up the courage and said in a trembling voice: "Children of several years old and babies are the closest to the original and clean. If you can use babies and children to make elixirs and use them as medicine, you can grow the elixir of life!"
"What, using children to make elixirs, wouldn't this harm the peace of the world?" Emperor Ming was stunned and fell into a tangle for a while.
The old Taoist smiled bitterly: "It is precisely because it is too harmful to Tianhe that almost no one in Taoism dares to practice this elixir."
This is tantamount to refining the lifespan of children for your own use, so it is said to be evil!
Emperor Ming fell into silence. If the old Taoist said that he could practice the elixir of immortality casually, he would have the old Taoist killed immediately.
But this old Taoist said such a cruel, terrifying and unscrupulous method.
That means...this thing is very likely to be true.
He had indeed vaguely heard of some evil methods of using blood into elixirs, but Cang Qiao said that such methods would harm the heaven and earth and would not lead to immortality!
But... when I think about it, he is already the emperor, the ruler of this world.
If he could rule this empire for eternity, why would he have to go to heaven and become an immortal?
He just wants to be the eternal human king, so what if he becomes a demon?!
Can’t become an immortal?
Now Cang Qiao is unreliable. How to practice this elixir in the end and how to become an immortal has become a matter of suspense!
"I, as long as it yields results, I will refine the elixir first and see!" Emperor Ming suddenly said coldly.
The old Taoist was shocked, gritted his teeth, and continued according to what the eldest son of the Zhou family said -
"Your Highness, it is too easy to catch children making elixirs in the capital or even in the Central Plains. This is not good for your Majesty's reputation and rule."
When Emperor Ming heard this, he narrowed his eyes irritably: "Isn't it the king's land in the world? Is it the king's ministers in the world? I just want a few children to refine elixirs, and those untouchables will be reborn. How can they be so troublesome?"
But he also had to admit that what the old man said made sense!
When he was not in the right position, he was attacked and rebelled, which was really troublesome.
The old Taoist continued: "Your Majesty, it's different in the border areas. There are the most wars in northern Xinjiang. Not to mention the children who are dead or missing, adults are living a difficult life!"
He secretly observed the emperor's expression: "Aren't the people of the Zhou family guarding the northern border? They can find ways to send you a steady stream of children without anyone noticing."
Emperor Ming paused, looked at the old man, suddenly became furious, and kicked him hard: "Oh, you are waiting for me here. If I want a child, do I have to obey and let Zhou Chen go?"
Anyone dares to imitate Cang Qiao and threaten him!
The veteran was in severe pain from being kicked, but he still managed to kneel on the ground——
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I am just helping the Zhou family to show their loyalty to you. As long as you give the order, they will be your staunchest support and serve you for eternity! I am the one who was given to you by General Zhou!"
Emperor Ming narrowed his cloudy eyes and stared at the old Taoist for a long time. The old Taoist cured his horse wind and gave him an elixir that was not inferior to Cang Qiao's.
He said coldly: "Okay, I will trust you once and offer the elixir first, and then I will find a way to pardon Zhou Chen. Anyway, there is still time until next spring!"
"Yes!" The veteran retreated.
...
"I don't know what the old Taoist said to His Majesty. They were talking in the alchemy furnace room. The noise was too loud. Our people could only hear something about the elixir of immortality."
Xiao Qizi whispered.
Hearing this, Cang Qiao's slender phoenix eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "Let people take a look at what that old man has bought."
The little empress is about to leave, and he still has to keep an eye on these monsters, which is really annoying.
Xiao Qizi looked at his master's irritable expression and felt sad.
It's really not easy to be a godfather. I just wish I could hang on my little lady like a long-legged pendant. This chapter has been completed!
