Ye Shaoyang scratched his head, this question was indeed not thought of before: Wutongshen was taken away, Wu Qiao went back now, people in the town would definitely be suspicious, and when they found Wutongshen was not there, they might force her to ask what happened thing.

Of course, the truth cannot be told. After discussing with everyone, Ye Shaoyang decided to fabricate a lie about Wutongshen being captured by the Yin Division comer. He took away... and put the blame on the underworld.

Anyway, there is no other witness, as long as Wu Qiao insists, no one else can say anything, not to mention she is a weak woman, no one will doubt that she can do anything to Wutongshen, so naturally she will not embarrass him.

Ye Shaoyang taught Wu Qiao how to speak, and made a confession with her. After Wu Qiao remembered it, Ye Shaoyang told her to go home by herself.Wu Qiao was a bit afraid, Ye Shaoyang happened to be going back to the town with Mao Xiaofang and Daoyuan to discuss other matters, so he sent her back, just after coming out of Wutongshen's room, he saw a person lying on the ground in the yard outside, Ye Shaoyang saw that it was the old man Chen, lying on the ground with his body attached.

Ye Shaoyang stepped forward to check, but old man Chen just fainted, and asked what was going on, Meihua explained that when Ye Shaoyang and others were fighting in the room, Jingdong called old man Chen, came to check the movement, just in time Meihua came, simply knocked him out.

Ye Shaoyang took care of his heart, let Meihua possess him once, and incarnated the Yin God of the underworld in the old man's dream, and told him that the Wutong God had been dismissed and sent to the Yin Division for investigation because he violated the precepts of the immortal family. People in the town will believe it even more if it is said, and it happens to be in line with what Wu Qiao said, so it will definitely make people believe it.

So Meihua was left to do the trick, and the rest left Hama Peak and rushed all the way to the town.When approaching the town, Ye Shaoyang was worried that the people in the town would see Wu Qiao with them and cause suspicion, so he asked Wu Qiao to go home first, follow the plan, and the three of them went to the inn and walked separately.

When he arrived in the town, Ye Shaoyang suddenly remembered something, he brought the two of them to the entrance of the town, asked the locals, found the ultimate way to enter the town, cut two willow sticks on the side of the road, crossed them together, and made a spell Knot, and then inserted in a conspicuous position on the side of the road.

"Who are you showing this to?" Dao Yuan Daoist asked.

"That real Miaoxin, if she really wants to come, she must come to the town from here. When she sees this, she will definitely go to find us." The knot that Ye Shaoyang tied with a wicker is a common signal in the magic world: Inserting this thing in a place means that the area is occupied by a mage and is doing business. When the mage sees this, he will go to meet him as soon as possible.

Ye Shaoyang adjusted the topmost branch of the French knot to a fixed position, pointing to the inn where he lived, so that the real Miaoxin would definitely find out where he lived. After all, there is only one inn in the town, and there are only a few outsiders. It's easy to find.

"That so-called Reverend Miaoxin, since he is the successor of Reverend Zikuang, he must know a thing or two about that ancient tomb. There are some things we need to ask her." Ye Shaoyang's words won the attention of Reverend Daoyuan and Mao Xiaofang. recognition.

The three returned to the inn, ordered a table of meals, and just sat down at the dining table in the room when Meihua came and told them that the matter had been settled.

"By the way, what happened to Wutongshen's subordinates?" Ye Shaoyang suddenly remembered this and asked Meihua.

Meihua smiled and said, "They have all been recruited by me, and they have become my subordinates."

"That's good, but... by the way, don't practice evil, don't hurt people, otherwise I don't know what to do with you."

Meihua nodded shyly, "I'm just practicing in the water, and it doesn't hurt anyone."

"That's good." After Ye Shaoyang finished speaking, he invited everyone to eat.He was the richest of them, so he invited him to the meal. He ordered a few good dishes and a pot of wine, and it was a celebration of finishing Wutongshen.Mao Xiaofang and Master Daoyuan were also very happy, and the three of them drank to their heart's content.Meihua stood beside Ye Shaoyang like a maidservant, pouring wine and tea for them. Ye Shaoyang regarded her as Meihua a hundred years later, but it was good, he didn't treat her as an outsider.

After drinking and eating, Ye Shaoyang called Xiao Er to remove the table, and then talked about business.

"Speaking of the corpse refining jar earlier, the expressions of both of you changed. What the hell is that?" Ye Shaoyang asked curiously, leaning on the bed with a toothpick in his mouth.

Daoyuan Daoyuan and Mao Xiaofang looked at each other, Mao Xiaofang said: "I know a little more about this estimate, let me tell you. Shaoyangzi, have you heard of the elixir of life?"

The corner of Ye Shaoyang's mouth twitched, and he said, "You should ask Xu Fu about this. It is said that he found it for Qin Shihuang, and then went to the island country, where he bred those descendants who used the plaster flag."

Mao Xiaofang waved his hand and said, "I'm not kidding. Daoist alchemy has always been believed in by many people in ancient times, even the emperors believed in it. You should know this."

Ye Shaoyang nodded. Of course he knew that alchemy has always been an important part of Taoist magic. Alchemy has internal and external distinctions, which can improve cultivation and prolong life. There are also some special elixirs with various special effects .

It's just that when alchemy became popular, many laymen and some Taoist priests also followed in alchemy, but they didn't know how to do it. They used a lot of harmful substances such as lead and mercury in alchemy, and finally ate themselves to death. In history, there are many emperors who have problems with taking pills. Huainan King Liu An is even more funny. He failed to make alchemy, but actually made tofu...

But alchemy does exist, but immortality is nonsense, this is the consensus of the Taoist sect, and Ye Shaoyang doesn't know why Mao Xiaofang mentioned this.

Mao Xiaofang didn't make a fool of himself, and continued: "In fact, the ancient emperors were mainly Taoist, but they were more seeking ways to nourish their bodies and strengthen their yang, and they all hoped that they could live forever. Some Taoist priests, in order to cater to the emperor, Just trying to use various methods to make alchemy, the emperor also gave all kinds of support in order to live a long time, giving what he wanted.

Although most of the Taoist priests cheated a bit, they did it for the sake of prosperity and wealth, and cheated some money. However, some Taoist priests with ulterior motives took advantage of the emperor's trust to engage in evil cultivating activities.

The legend of the corpse refining jar comes from the new regime established by Wang Mang at the end of the Western Han Dynasty.Like those previous emperors, Wang Mang also believed in Taoism and was very obsessed with the elixir of life. At that time, there were various Taoist priests who were favored by him. Among them, a Taoist priest named "Tianzhuo" was the most favored by him. He claimed to be from Zhongnan Mountain and had been to Penglai Xiandao. , there is a prescription for the elixir of life given by the immortal.

This elixir of life is very difficult to mix, and one of them needs human oil... and it needs human oil squeezed out by hundreds of living people.

At that time, the emperor only wanted to live forever. Just in time, some small uprisings were suppressed at that time, so Taoist Tianzhuo asked the priest to choose suitable ones from these prisoners of war to refine medicine. For Wang Mang, this was just a one-off. "Waste utilization", because most of these prisoners of war will also be killed.

Daoist Tianzhuo took chicken feathers as arrows, selected nearly a thousand people, and killed them in batches. The method was very simple and cruel at the time. He specially built ten special copper tripods and escorted them to the tripod. Use willow wood to burn underneath, roasting people alive.There are runes engraved on the bronze tripod, which can absorb the resentment generated by people in death, as well as the soul of the deceased, on the tripod wall.

"Because there are too many people to be killed, it is said that Taoist Master Tianzhuo used three cauldrons to kill people together, and at least hundreds of people were killed in each cauldron...Even without the blessing of special runes, hundreds of people were executed alone. People, these cauldrons are also absolutely deadly weapons. Not to mention that the resentment and soul of the deceased are all in the cauldron... Shaoyangzi, what kind of concept is this?"

After listening to Mao Xiaofang's narration, Ye Shaoyang took a deep breath. In ancient times, there were execution knives used by executioners. Even if they were passed down from family, they couldn't kill more than a hundred people, otherwise the legend would give birth to evil spirits.Not to mention, each of these cauldrons killed hundreds of people...

The most important thing is that instruments of torture such as knives are all open shapes, and it is difficult to attach grievances and souls. According to the magic world, a tripod is a pot, and any tangible and intangible things can be placed in the middle.

Mao Xiaofang also said that these tripods were specially made, with Dao patterns engraved on them, and people were slowly roasted to death, the resentment generated, and the souls of these people were absorbed by the tripod wall... Such an evil Ye Shaoyang has never heard of something that is extremely sexual.

"That Taoist Master Tianzhuo, what is the purpose of killing these people?" Ye Shaoyang wanted to know the following things, of course he didn't believe that it was really for refining some elixir of life.

"The elixir of life is of course a cover. He did this to obtain those ghosts and the grievances generated, so that he can use it slowly..."

Resentment and ghosts are the two favorite things of evil mages. They can be used for various purposes, they can be used to refine magic weapons, and they can also be directly refined to improve their cultivation. This is the consensus of the magic world, so Mao Xiaofang did not deliberately explain.

"Then?"

"Not long after he was trained, the rebel army invaded Chang'an, and the new dynasty perished. Of course, these Taoist priests could not escape. It is said that Taoist priest Tian Zhuo ran away at that time, but it was impossible for the three tripods to take away. He stayed and hid in a place in Chang'an City, and then disappeared."

"Later, Daoist Tian Zhuo was hunted down by the magic world, and he was found and killed. He was forced to find out the whereabouts of the three cauldrons, but only one was found. At that time, half of the magic world mobilized together to save the dead souls in the cauldron. , destroyed the tripod. As for the other two, their whereabouts are unknown...

Later, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it was said that a tripod appeared in the world and was occupied by a demon king. He originally wanted to absorb the demon energy in the tripod, but the resentment in the tripod was too strong. In the end, the demon king himself was backlashed and absorbed by the tripod. ...Afterwards, some wandering spirits in the cauldron leaked out and killed people everywhere, which attracted the attention of the Ming court. It was Liu Bowen who personally summoned the world's mages to try to seal the cauldron together, built a gossip table, and exposed the cauldron to the sun After a year, when most of the grievances in it have dissipated, this time I summoned everyone to practice together, and only then did all the dead souls inside be saved..."

Master Daoyuan heard this, and said: "I've heard about this too. It is said that there were accidents when practicing the Dharma, and many mages died."

Ye Shaoyang has never heard of these things they said. About the corpse refining vat, he has only read some fragments of narration in the classics. Not only this matter, since Ye Shaoyang dealt with Mao Xiaofang, he heard a lot from him. I was curious about the secrets of the magic world that I didn't know, but after asking about the classics he had read, I realized that I hadn't read most of them. knowledge generation.

Ye Shaoyang thought about this problem carefully, and felt that there was only one possibility, that is, in the later era of the four olds, many classics and the like were destroyed, and in that period of the most silent period in the magic world, many things were dated , the organization of the magic world was also completely destroyed, and it was not until the 80s that it began to slowly repair...

Ye Shaoyang put aside these messy thoughts, and said, "Isn't it a tripod, why did it become a corpse refining vat?"

Mao Xiaofang said: "I heard that the tripod has a big mouth and a small belly, and looks like a water tank, so it was given such a nickname."

"So, there are still two corpse refining vats in the world?"

"I don't know, but...if that ancient tomb is really a corpse refining vat, then there will be big troubles."

The three Taoist priests looked at each other with expressions of bewilderment.

It was the first time Ye Shaoyang had heard of such an evil thing, if it really existed, it would be too evil to describe in words.

"However, no matter how fierce the corpse refining jar is, it's just a dead thing, and I'm afraid it will be used by people..." Ye Shaoyang said, "Why did the corpse refining jar appear in the ancient tomb?"

Of course no one can answer this question, even they don't know who the owner of the ancient tomb is, and they have no way of investigating. The only hope now is that the real Miaoxin can really come and tell them something.

Daoyuan Daoyuan and Mao Xiaofang both travel around the world, and this kind of supernatural event is their duty, so naturally they will not let it go.Ye Shaoyang's mind was not on any ancient tomb at all, but since he met him, he couldn't just stand by and watch, so Meihua naturally followed him.

"By the way, Shaoyangzi, before I came this time, I heard a piece of news from our Longhu Mountain." Daoyuan Daoyuan said suddenly, "Peach Blossom Mountain recently issued a post to hold a water and land Longhua meeting to jointly select a young talent." Jun, known as the chief disciple of the magic world, focuses on training, and will be able to command the magic world to act in the future."
