Ma Xiaoquan actually did not expect that these horse urine elixirs that he made forged would later become a must-have in the battles between some princes. If Ma Xiaoquan had known about it in advance, he would have regretted not doing more.
After sealing all the elixirs, Ma Xiaoquan took Wang Yun's carriage and rushed to Changle Palace.
In Changle Palace, Dong Zhuo was pacing, very anxious.
It has been several days, and Master Shangxian said he was coming, but no one has been seen after such a long time. Dong Zhuo once sent someone to Situ's Mansion to ask, but the result was that Master Shangxian was practicing and no one was allowed to disturb him for the time being.
Dong Zhuo had no choice but to wait.
However, Dong Zhuo has not been idle these days. The gold and silver treasures that Dong Zhuo looted from Luoyang were all concentrated in a place called Jiwu.
This Jiwuwu was built by Dong Zhuo in order to hoard treasures and food. The height and thickness of the city wall of Jiwu were seven feet, and Dong Zhuo also turned Jiwuwu into the place where he would go to court. If he didn't want to see Ma Xiaoquan, Dong Zhuo would not have come.
Changle Palace.
When he was in a hurry, a servant came to report that a man who claimed to be an immortal asked to see Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo kicked the servant down with his foot and cursed: "Don't you stupid things have eyes? That's the Immortal. Go and invite him to me."
The servant felt very unhappy after being kicked by Dong Zhuo, but he did not dare to say anything, so he had to hold his breath and go out to meet Ma Xiaoquan.
Outside the palace, Ma Xiaoquan saw the servant's unhappiness, so he didn't think much and directly gave the servant a piece of silver.
"Lord Immortal, you are..."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled: "I am not a human being in this world, so I have no need for these things. I will give you one. Take it back and take good care of your family!"
The servant wanted to kneel after hearing this. Ma Xiaoquan quickly supported the servant and asked: "What is your name?"
The servant said: "Little Zhao Er."
"Zhao Er? Oh, good, I will remember you!"
Zhao Er introduced Ma Xiaoquan to Changle Palace.
In the palace, Dong Zhuo was already so worried that he was sweating profusely. When he saw Ma Xiaoquan coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
Ma Xiaoquan was startled by Dong Zhuo's enthusiasm, but he also knew that Dong Zhuo was actually asking about the elixir in disguise.
Ma Xiaoquan didn't point it out. He intended to chat with Dong Zhuo about some commonplace matters, but he didn't talk to Dong Zhuo about the elixir.
Finally, Dong Zhuo couldn't help it any longer and said, "Sir, my Lord..."
Ma Xiaoquan was deliberately surprised, then patted his forehead and said: "Oh, I'm so sorry, Xiao Dong, I almost forgot about this. I'm ready. They're all in the car. I'm going to give it to you now."
you take!"
Dong Zhuo stood up and said, "Don't bother me, Lord Shangxian. I'll just ask Feng to get it first... Fengxian, go get it from your car."
Lu Bu, who was beside Dong Zhuo, nodded helplessly.
When Dong Zhuo saw Lu Bu walking away, he quietly asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Master Shangxian, how many pills do you have in total?"
Ma Xiaoquan laughed and said, "It's not much. You'll know when you get it."
Outside the palace, Lu Bu had a reluctant look on his face, thinking that he could just ask his servants to take it. But when he carefully asked the servants accompanying the Situ Mansion, he was shocked.
"What? You mean, these are the elixirs of immortality that Master Shangxian refined for my adoptive father?"
How could the servants of the Situ Mansion dare to hide anything in front of Lu Bu? Although he only heard a little bit about it at the time, if it really didn't happen, he wouldn't dare to talk nonsense.
Lu Bu asked again: "How much has Master Shangxian prepared?"
The servant replied: "Master Marquis, I don't know. I only know that Master Shangxian put these pills in a box each and then put these boxes in this box."
Lu Bu said "oh" and had evil thoughts in his heart.
"Go down, I came to get those elixirs on my foster father's order, just give them to me."
The servant did not dare to say anything more and handed the box containing the elixir to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu took the elixir, his eyebrows twitched, and left without thinking.
When he reached a place where no one was around, Lu Bu secretly opened the box and counted the pills in the box.
"There are nineteen of them? So many. If I take one or two, I don't think my adoptive father will blame me. Well, I'll take one for myself and give one to Xian'er. Yeah, that's it.
That’s settled.”
As Lu Bu said, he took out two boxes containing elixirs from the box, then rearranged the boxes in the box and closed the door.
...
When Lu Bu brought the box to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was also shocked. He originally thought that one elixir of immortality would be enough, but he didn't expect that there were so many.
"Lord Immortal, this is..."
Ma Xiaoquan told Dong Zhuo what he had said to Wang Yun before.
After Dong Zhuo heard this, he said with a little regret: "It turns out that my life can only be extended by ten years."
Lu Bu was also very disappointed. He originally thought that one pill would make him immortal. After listening to Master Shangxian's words, he realized that one pill could only extend his life for ten years. If he had known it, he might as well have stolen a few more pills.
Dong Zhuo asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Master Shangxian, how many pills do you have in total?"
Ma Xiaoquan originally wanted to say that there were 19 pills in total, but when he noticed that Lu Bu winked at him secretly, he immediately laughed and said: "Xiao Dong, I was on a whim and didn't count carefully after I finished practicing. Just open it and take a look."
"
Dong Zhuo opened the box and counted the pills in the box.
"Seventeen?" Dong Zhuo was excited. This calculated as a life span of 170 years.
Ma Xiaoquan struck while the iron was hot: "My alchemy skills are not advanced enough, so I refined some more. You can call these elixirs immortality elixirs or longevity elixirs. In short, Xiaodong, you can take them once every ten years."
, after one hundred and seventy years, my alchemy technology should be able to help you refine the real elixir of immortality..."
Ma Xiaoquan's words made Dong Zhuo's heart surge.
The immortality that the former First Emperor of Qin, King Ying Zheng, had always dreamed of, was so readily available to him today in front of Dong Zhuo... Dong Zhuo got more and more excited as he thought about it, and with his restless heart, he began to plan the entire Han Dynasty.
...
When Ma Xiaoquan saw that the effect was achieved, he glanced at Lu Bu meaningfully. Lu Bu was grateful but lowered his head shyly, not daring to say anything.
"Okay, Xiao Dong, I'm leaving now. I've been practicing a magical skill recently. It's very important. If you have nothing to do, don't bother me. As for this pill, you can't take it yet.
You can only eat it after years, do you understand?"
Dong Zhuo didn't understand and asked why?
Ma Xiaoquan explained: "Didn't I just say that this is a pill embryo, and it needs to absorb some of the essence of the sun and the moon. If you take it now, it will not only have no effect, but you may suffer from abdominal pain and diarrhea. You understand this time."
Before Dong Zhuo could explain clearly, Lu Bu said first: "I understand!"
Dong Zhuo glanced at Lu Bu: "Master Immortal is asking me, what do you want to say?"
Lu Bu blushed and remained silent.
Dong Zhuo was very happy because he got the elixir, and he didn't pay much attention to what Lu Bu said, so he sent Lu Bu to escort Ma Xiaoquan out of the palace.
Outside the palace, Lu Bu bowed deeply to Ma Xiaoquan and said, "Thank you, Lord Immortal, Bu!"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and said: "Lu Bu, I know that you are not happy under your adoptive father. Thank you for your suffering. If you are unhappy in any way, go to Situ Mansion to find Mr. Wang Yun...
.”
After Ma Xiaoquan finished speaking, he got on the carriage, leaving Lu Bu alone, standing blankly...
Back at Situ Mansion, Ma Xiaoquan saw Wang Yun crying very sadly.
"Master Situ, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Yun replied: "The elixir given to me by the Supreme Immortal has disappeared..."
"Disappeared?" Ma Xiaoquan also felt strange and asked, "I just went out for a while, how could I disappear?"
Wang Yun also had a depressed look on his face: "I don't know, I put it very hidden, but it disappeared."
Ma Xiaoquan asked: "Have you checked everything in the house?"
Wang Yundao said: "I have checked everything, and no one in the house knows anything about it."
Ma Xiaoquan couldn't explain it at the moment, so he had to lie: "Master Situ, have you taken out the elixir?"
Wang Yun was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Ma Xiaoquan clapped his hands and said: "This is your fault. Although this pill is an embryo, once it is taken out, it will have spiritual consciousness. If you don't catch it, it may run away..."
The more Ma Xiaoquan talked, the more excited he became. Wang Yun was stunned as he spoke.
"Master Immortal, now the elixir is gone, what should I do?"
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "I can't make the elixir. Do you know that it's very difficult for me to get the ingredients for elixir?"
As soon as Ma Xiaoquan said these words, the three little girls beside him, Xiu'er, Miaoyu and Hualin, couldn't help laughing.
"Insolent!" Ma Xiaoquan reacted quickly and scolded several little girls, "Is it funny that Mr. Situ lost the elixir? Huh? You all go back to your house. Starting today, you are not allowed to leave the house for two days. If
If you don't obey, you will be kicked out."
The little girls were startled. They didn't expect that the consequences of a smile would be so serious, so they quickly became silent and didn't dare to say anything anymore.
After scolding a few little girls, Ma Xiaoquan comforted Wang Yun and said, "Don't be sad, Master Situ. If you lose it, just throw it away. When I have time to go out to find medicinal materials, I will just remember to refine a few pills for you."
When Wang Yun heard this, he broke down in tears and smiled: "Master Shangxian, you must give me a few more."
Ma Xiaoquan pretended to agree to Wang Yun.
Outside Situ's Mansion, there is a low wall.
Three people squatted under the low wall, one of whom was holding an exquisite rosewood box in his hand.
"Brother, this thing was just stolen from Situ's Mansion. I secretly heard someone from Situ's Mansion saying that the demon in the Mansion refined a batch of elixirs and gave them to Thief Dong. This is the only one in the Mansion.
I stole it from that old man Wang Yun's house, otherwise, we..."
A relatively burly man whispered: "No, since this thing is an elixir, it is not trivial. Let's take it back and show it to the clan leader before talking about it."
"good!"
The burly man looked at the high wall of Situ's Mansion and muttered to himself in confusion: "Why does this demon want to refine elixirs? Is he good or bad?"
Another person said: "Brother, what about the second young lady in the house, should we do it?"
The eldest brother said: "No need for the time being. It seems that the evil way is treating the second young lady well. Moreover, the war is in chaos now. The second young lady is much safer with this evil way. But you, if you hadn't seen the second young lady last time,
Plum Blossom Brand, I'm afraid you've made a big mistake by waiting. Let's go and show this elixir to the clan leader before talking."
"Um!"
Jiwu.
Dong Zhuo played with an exquisite rosewood box in his hand and couldn't put it down, humming from time to time.
"This immortal is so kind. He gave me 17 elixirs at once. This elixir can extend my life for 170 years. It's great..."
Dong Zhuo was talking to himself and shaking his fat head.
Lu Bu was very depressed around Dong Zhuo.
He was depressed that he should have stolen more before, so that his adoptive father would not be so happy now. Lu Bu thought: yi70 years later, I will be dead long ago, but my adoptive father is still alive. This is so ironic...
....
Lu Bu secretly made up his mind that as long as he had the chance, he would go to Situ's Mansion to pay homage to Master Shangxian and ask Master Shangxian to give him a few more pills...
At night, Lu Bu was really depressed. After Dong Zhuo went to bed, he secretly went to the back room to find his old friend.
"Xian'er, it's me, I'm your dear..."
The door to the back room creaked open, and Lu Bu squeezed in sideways.
In the room, the sounds of men and women being confused soon came...
After Wushan, Lu Bu hugged the beauty in his arms and kept sighing.
"Why is the general sighing so much?"
Lu Bu shook his head and said, "I thought I would risk my life for my adoptive father. Who would have known that he got seventeen elixirs, but I didn't have one. What I had was secretly hidden.
Do you think I feel uncomfortable or not..."
"General, where is the elixir?"
Lu Bu smiled and pinched the arm of the beauty in his arms and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I stole two pills, one for me and one for you, but it can only be taken after a year, so there is no need to rush, hey!
"
Xian'er looked at the man beside the pillow and sighed, and couldn't help complaining: "Won't the Grand Master reward you with one and a half pills?"
Lu Bu shook his head.
Xian'er boldly said: "General, why don't you just steal a few more."
Lu Bu said helplessly: "How can it be that easy? My foster father puts these pills next to his pillow every day, and he has to count them when he comes back from the toilet. My foster father said that if one pill is missing, even I will be punished.
.”
Xian'er was unconvinced and said: "Then you might as well snatch it all from him!"
As soon as Xian'er said these words, Lu Bu was shocked: "Xian'er, this is not allowed!"
Xian'er disapproved and curled her lips and said: "Have you forgotten, General? A few days ago, because of a trivial matter, the Grand Master even threw his halberd at you. If you hadn't escaped in time, you almost lost your life. These generals
Have you forgotten?"
Lu Bu fell silent.
Xian'er continued: "Although the general escaped the Grand Master's blow, his arm was still scratched. The general's injury was bandaged by Xian'er. Have these generals also forgotten it?"
Lu Bu was moved.
Xian'er cried in a low voice: "Xian'er was forcibly kidnapped from her hometown by the Grand Master and became his female slave. Xian'er's body was also defiled by him. If Xian'er hadn't met the general, Xian'er wouldn't have known what happened.
It's done, but the general and Xian'er are so unclear, Xian'er is very sad... Xian'er is really..."
Before Xian'er finished speaking, Lu Bu covered Xian'er's mouth and coaxed: "Okay, my good Xian'er, I will think about it. Be obedient and don't cry. Don't cry..."
When Lu Bu came out of the back room, he crouched and looked around to see that no one was there, then he slipped out proudly, but he didn't know that in the darkness not far away, there was a beautiful woman squatting. This beautiful woman looked at
Lu Bu disappeared, biting his silver teeth and murmuring: "Liu Xian'er, you dare to hook up with the adopted son of the Grand Master, you are very courageous..."
