great mandate

After Jun Tianci got up, he washed up, and returned to his usual innocuous appearance of being neither dead nor alive. After eating the medicinal food, he went to the basement of the other courtyard in the western suburbs.

Shen Wuji guessed correctly, this courtyard in the western suburbs had never been abandoned.

Naturally, the entrance is not in this other courtyard, but from another residence, open the mechanism door, walk through a long section of corridor, and then reach the underground of the western suburb courtyard that has almost been hollowed out.

Jun Tianci was sitting in a wheelchair and was being pushed through this corridor by his confidantes. He seemed to have no bones, his upper body was slightly bent, and he was curled up obliquely in the wheelchair, as if the wheelchair was too big.

However, it was only because he was shockingly thin.

If you ask Luo Jinyu to come and see it now, you will find that Jun Tianci is much weaker than before.

In the scorching summer, although it is cooler underground, no one else is like him. He has put on a big cloak and holds the stove in his hand, but he still doesn't feel the heat, and his lips are a little black.

Finally, after passing through the long passage, which was still too dark even though there were oil lamps hanging on both sides, he entered a hall, with tight wooden fences on both sides, separating many small rooms, each with a person , there is a small sign hanging at the door, with brief information on the people inside.

Hearing the sound of the wheels of the wheelchair, some of the people in the small room looked over in preparedness or panic or anger or hatred, while others were numb and continued to freeze in the distance like a corpse.

But no one dared to speak out.

Because there was a dark short man standing by, holding a whip full of barbs in his hand, the other end of the whip was soaked in salt water, and he would beat anyone who spoke casually at any time.

In addition to whips, there are also instruments of torture such as soldering irons.

Jun Tianci was not interested in looking at these people, and continued to curl up in the wheelchair, being pushed inside.

He despised these people coldly in his heart.

——Did not dare to resist, for fear of being beaten to death.But don't they think that if they don't resist, they won't die in the future?

He always looks down on most people in this world.

When others resisted, he would contemptuously say: Still can't see the situation clearly?A fool who blocks cars with his arms.

If others don't resist, he also despises them: Don't even dare to resist?

Jun Tianci seldom has people or things that are pleasing to the eye.

He often feels that this world, and the vast majority of people in this world, do not deserve to exist.

The vast majority of people in this world are either ants or livestock, but ants and livestock have self-knowledge, but humans do not. Therefore, ants and livestock deserve to exist, but humans do not.

The confidant pushed Jun Tianci for a while, and then entered a stone gate.

The space inside this stone gate is more spacious than before. Without the wooden fence, it is a complete stone house, with cabinets, shelves, books and other things neatly placed around it. The huge night pearl, together with torches and long lights, is as bright as day.

In the middle of the room, there are three raised stone platforms the size of adult coffins, and now there is a sleeping woman lying on one of them, and there is no one on the other two stone platforms, only some faint bloodstains.

An old man with a white beard who looked like a doctor came up to him and said respectfully, "My lord."

Only then did Jun Tianci slightly raise his eyelids, and asked lightly: "I heard that you have a new method?"

The old man nodded and said: "The villain has a sudden whim recently. In ancient times, medicines were mostly taken into the stomach, but this way, like eating, I always feel that the efficacy of the medicine is greatly reduced. Therefore, the villain is thinking about whether it is possible to directly pour the medicine juice into the stomach. In the blood? As the blood qi circulates throughout the body, will it be as powerful as the true qi of a martial artist? The villain chose a few people to test, and now those people are still alive, and there is no difference."

Jun Tianci didn't speak, but the old man said again, "The villain will show you."

Jun Tianci slightly lifted his finger resting on the armrest of the wheelchair, and the old man understood, and went to the door to call for someone.

Not long after, someone brought a pale woman outside.

The woman was trembling with fear, her face was pale, and she murmured in a low voice in fear, which no one else could hear clearly, they only guessed that she was begging for mercy.

But where would anyone spare her?

The woman was pinned on the stage, tied up, and gagged. The old man went to the side to fetch a strangely shaped object—it looked like a needle but it was a delicate object made of brass, with a male thumb on it. The large and small hollow cylindrical tube, when it reaches the bottom, shrinks to a cylindrical tube that is not much thicker than the needle of the sole of the shoe, but the inside is also hollow.

The old man took out another thing, which was a piece of nephrite jade, which could fit into the cylindrical tube the size of a thumb.

He went to the woman, ignored the woman's terrified expression, cut her arm with a knife, stabbed the thin cylindrical tube into the wound, and pushed the nephrite under the cylindrical tube with something.

Most of the liquid medicine in the cylindrical tube flowed out.

"However, some of them have been mixed into the blood." The old man explained.

Jun Tianci looked at the woman and was silent for a long time, the old man didn't dare to urge her, so he waited beside her.Finally, Jun Tianci spoke: "Continue."

Only then did the old man continue to explain: "Master Xiaojun wants to refine a medicine that can make people immortal and extremely strong. Previously, the younger ones were incompetent and often failed. The younger ones changed their thinking and wondered whether it is possible to exchange blood for people." Try it. The blood vessels of the human body are so important, the blood is turbid, and the body is weak. If we directly inject the mellow medicinal juice into the blood vessels, will it have a miraculous effect?"

Just as Jun Tianci was about to speak, he suddenly heard a heavy sound from above his head, and his heart shook violently, his eyes went dark, his ears bang, and he almost fainted.

The confidant was very experienced, and hurriedly took out a snuff bottle from his bosom, opened the lid, and put it under Jun Tianci's nose for him to sniff.

Jun Tianci managed to slow down, and raised his head silently. His eyes, which were usually colorless, looked like the eyes of a dead fish, looking at the roof.

There was still the bang, bang, and bang, as if someone had hit him straight in the heart with a hammer.

The confidant hurriedly said: "Go outside first to hide from the noise, and ask someone to go and see what's going on."

On top of this is the other courtyard in the western suburbs. Because rumors of ghosts were released here, in the early years, some self-proclaimed bold people were frightened by tricks, so almost no one dared to approach here on weekdays.

Jun Tianci didn't speak, but still stared at the roof.

The confidant was afraid that he would be disturbed by the sound, and he didn't care much, so he hurriedly pushed him out to find a quiet place.

The ground ruins of the other courtyard in the western suburbs were crowded with people at the moment.

To be precise, it was full of children.

The children brought their own small shovels and other gadgets, and were jumping around in the ruins, digging and beating everywhere.

Shen Wuji brought a grand master's chair by himself, covered it with soft cushions, and put it in the shade.

He sat comfortably on it, crossed his legs, peeled refreshing salted peanuts in his hand, and watched from afar.

Standing beside him was Shen Wuji's godson Xifeng, fanning him.

"Godfather, why didn't Dongchang send someone?" Xifeng asked puzzled.

Shen Wuji ate peanuts, glanced at him, and said indifferently: "People from Dongchang have visited here several times at night, but they didn't find anything."

"Then you are..."

"Hmph, our family doesn't believe it." Shen Wuji said, "If you can't find it on the ground, go underground."

Xifeng asked: "Then why are you so devious? Find these children... Wouldn't it be faster to ask the strong men to dig?"

"Who did you follow with your pig's brain?" Shen Wuji sighed, hating iron for not turning into steel, "If we could dig directly, would our family be too idle? Although this yard is in ruins, it has an owner."

His voice became lower and lower, and he said, "He Fangzhou has checked, and this yard is now under the name of King Jia."

Xifeng was stunned, and said in surprise: "Jia Wang... Could it be that Jia Wang is a bad person?"

"It can't be said to be very good, but it shouldn't be evil." Shen Wuji said, "Since Wang Gui's death, this courtyard has been turned over several times and the treasury has been taken back. In the past few years, there was a severe drought, and King Jia took the lead in raising donations for disaster relief. After the incident, the late emperor To reward him, I set aside a few plots of land to reward him, and the ruins of the Western Suburb Bieyuan happened to be among them. Our family went to find out about him. He came here with great interest and planned to demolish and rebuild a summer resort and lease it to others. To make money. But before the construction started, strange things happened frequently, and two people died. Jia Wang also had nightmares every night, restless. He invited an expert to check. Set up a formation, and it will take 50 years to move again. Jia Wang is not short of money in this place, but he evaded it, so he ignored it from then on.”

West Wind: "..."

"Our family wants to dig here, and we have to talk to him. He is very calm, saying that as long as our family dares, he can give us the land deed." Shen Wuji said, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and said ,"This is it."

Xifeng: "..." He said give it away, do you really want it? !

"However, this place was a reward from the late emperor. The fact that King Jia gave the land deed to our family cannot be said on the table. From the perspective of outsiders, the land is still his. Therefore, our family still cannot openly find someone to dig it. If Let others know, and don't mention it if it hurts his face, and you are even more afraid that you will cause him trouble in vain."

As he said that, Shen Wuji suddenly showed an incomparably loving smile, and said, "However, it's another matter to ask the children to come here to 'treasure hunt' to play. Our family enjoys more with the people, is amiable and approachable."

West Wind: "..."
