step on mountains and rivers

Just when Jiang Ling was separated from the crowd, Lu Qing followed Taoist Xuanming to a palace on the left side of Xuanwu Hall.

In the palace, Taoist Xuanming asked Lu Qing to sit down, and said slowly to him:

"Emissary Lu Dian is from the Immortal Medicine Valley, so he must be very skilled in medicine."

"Fair." Lu Qing replied.

"Immortal Medicine Valley's medical skills are well-known all over the world. Envoy Lu Dian doesn't need to be humble." After Taoist Xuanming finished speaking, he continued to Lu Qing:

"Emissary Lu Dian, what do you think about Changsheng?"

"Longevity? Does the Palace Master mean immortality?" Lu Qing asked.

"En." Taoist Xuan Ming replied, and then said:

"This seat is also approaching the age of [-]. In just a few decades, many things that I want to do have not been done, and my life is almost over. This seat is indeed a bit sad."

He paused, then said:

"This seat has been studying the art of longevity for these years, and has practiced many golden pills, but all of them have had little effect. I don't know what method Master Lu has? If there is, we can try it."

"I have nothing to do." Lu Qing replied.

"Really? Palace Master Lu, you should also want to live forever." Xuanming said humanely.

"Why did the Palace Master say that?" Lu Qing asked.

"Because, Palace Master Jiang." Taoist Xuanming replied.

"You..." Lu Qing looked at him, slightly surprised.

Seeing Lu Qing's reaction, Taoist Xuanming raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then asked:

"Master Lu, I have lived for so many years, what is there that I can't see through? In the hall, Master Jiang cares so much about you. Presumably, he should be pleased with you. If Master Lu is interested in him, don't you want to live forever with him?" ?”

"I......" Lu Qing was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Longevity is just a dream."

"So what about fantasy dreams? What is not a fantasy dream? As long as you do it, the fantasy dream will eventually become reality." Xuan Ming said humanely.

"Is that so?" Lu Qing said softly, as if he was asking Taoist Xuanming, as well as himself.

"Of course." Taoist Xuan Ming replied.

After Lu Qing listened to his words, the obsession that had been forcibly suppressed before gradually rose in his heart.

He looked at Taoist Xuanming, and said slowly:

"I've seen a kind of immortality before."

"Oh? What is it?" Taoist Xuanming asked.

"Gu worm." Lu Qing said.

"Gu worm?" Taoist Xuanming asked.

"Longevity Gu." Lu Qing told the longevity Gu while speaking.

After hearing this, Taoist Xuanming slightly exclaimed, "How could this be so."

As he said that, he looked at Lu Qing and said, "Emissary Lu Dian, how did you know this?"

"Dongying, but this method is not feasible." Lu Qing said.

"Why?" Taoist Xuan Ming asked.

"Bugs are extremely variable and cannot be controlled." Lu Qing replied.

"So that's the case." Taoist Xuanming understood, and then said to Lu Qing:

"Let's not talk about it for now. Envoy Lu, I'm doing a longevity experiment recently. I don't know if Envoy Lu is interested in taking a look?"

"Longevity experiment? Good." Lu Qing replied.

"Well, envoy Lu Dian come with me." Taoist Xuan Ming finished speaking, and then led Lu Qing towards the inner hall.

In the inner hall, Taoist Xuanming opened the secret door, and the two entered the secret passage.

Half an hour later, the two reached the end of the secret passage.Looking at the secret room in front of him, Lu Qing was too shocked to speak.

In the vast secret room, dozens of large glass bottles with a height of seven feet are arranged in a line.Inside the glass bottle, a corpse of various shapes was soaked in the lavender liquid.The corpses consisted of men, women and children, with pale skin and a three-foot-long stitched wound on the front of the body.

In front of the corpse samples, there were several long rows of stone tables. The stone tables were covered with blue and purple dirty blood. Layers of dirty blood soaked through the stone tables and flowed into the ground from the corners of the tables.

On the stone table, the abdominal cavity of a bruised child's corpse was wide open, and the purple-black viscera faintly glowed with scarlet blood.

Taoist Xuanming was about to enter the secret room, but seeing Lu Qing's shocked expression, he woke him up and said:

"Emissary Lu?"

Lu Qing woke up from shock when he heard his words.He looked at the secret room and questioned Taoist Xuanming:

"You're doing human experiments!"

"Yes, what's the matter?" Taoist Xuanming asked.

"You, you..." Before Lu Qing could finish speaking, Taoist Xuanming interrupted him:

"Emissary Lu Dian, since it is a test of longevity, it is natural to use people the best. Not only people, but also living people."

After Lu Qing heard his words, he thought of everyone in Hanbingchi. It turned out that he had planned it long ago.

"Longevity experiment, how do you do it?" Lu Qing said.

Taoist Xuanming listened to his question, pointed to the corpse in the glass bottle, and then said slowly:

"Alchemy."

Then he went on to explain:

"Using sulfur poison as the base, supplemented with various poisons to refine the elixir, make it mixed with the internal organs of the human body to grow together, and combine to form a strange poison, and then tempered by intense fire for ninety-nine and 81 days, and then it can be refined into a superb magic elixir .

The magic pill can inhibit aging and prolong life.It took me a long time to practice this pill, and the one made from children is the best. "

"Boy, you killed a lot of people." Lu Qing said coldly after hearing Taoist Xuanming's words.

Taoist Xuanming didn't care about his attitude. After all, he is a medical immortal, so it's normal for him not to see this matter.

Thinking about him, he said to Lu Qing:

"Emissary Lu, if you gain something, you will lose it. Everything is exchanged at equal value. If you want to live forever, you must pay the price."

"The price you pay is other people's lives." Lu Qing said.

"They should be happy that they can die for longevity. If they can research the method of longevity, future generations will definitely remember them." Taoist Xuanming said humanely.

"They are just ordinary people who just want to live an ordinary life. They don't want to die for experiments, and they don't want to be remembered. They just want to spend their lives with their loved ones." Lu Qing said slowly.

"Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. If they want to live forever, they will inevitably sacrifice. Lu Dianshi is too indecisive." Taoist Xuanming said humanely.

"Maybe it is." Lu Qing glanced at the secret room while speaking, and said in a cold tone:

"Hallmaster, please forgive me for not being able to accept it, and leave."

After saying that, Lu Qing turned and left.

Taoist Xuanming looked at Lu Qing's leaving back, chuckled lightly, and said slowly:

"Envoy Lu Dian, don't worry, you will understand what I did today sooner or later."

Lu Qing walked out of the secret passage very uncomfortable, he walked out of the main hall absent-mindedly, and when he was about to look for Jiang Ling, his eyes suddenly went dark, and he passed out.

In the dark, the two looked at Lu Qing who was unconscious, with a little embarrassment on their faces.

"Brother Tang..." Li Zhenwu said.

"......" Tang Qingfeng was speechless, then changed the subject and said, "Why is Lu Qing there?"

"I don't know." Li Zhenwu replied.

"Uh, okay. I'll ask after he wakes up." Tang Qingfeng said.

Half an hour later, Lu Qing woke up from the coma. He looked at the two people in front of him, a little puzzled and said:

"Brother Tang, Brother Li, why are you here? I seem to have been knocked out just now, did you save me?"

"........." The two remained silent in embarrassment.

"What's wrong?" Lu Qing asked puzzled seeing the two were silent.

"It's nothing, by the way, Lu Qing, why are you there?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

After hearing Tang Qingfeng's question, Lu Qing told the two of them about the longevity experiment, and they were all shocked when they heard this.

"He actually used people as experiments?!" Li Zhenwu was surprised.

"......" Lu Qing was silent.

"Longevity again. It seems that people in the world are very obsessed with longevity." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Life is too short, and it's normal to be persistent," Lu Qing said.

"Yeah." Tang Qingfeng replied, and then changed the subject:

"Lu Qing, how long have you been here? What have you found out about the magic weapon?"

"It's been almost two days. The Xuanwu Hall is very tightly guarded. We only found out that the god soldiers are in the secret room on the mountain under the Xuanwu Hall. The secret room can only be entered from the secret passage in the inner hall of the Xuanwu Hall.

But we are newcomers, we don't have enough authority, and we haven't entered it yet, so we don't know the details. " Lu Qing said.

"Really, then we have to find a way to go in." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Well, we think so too. Chengbi said that he can talk to Xuanwu, maybe he can enter." Lu Qing said.

"Oh, who is Chengbi?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"Xuanwu's Bisu." Lu Qing replied, and then explained:

"He and Jiang Ling are congenial, and we have heard a lot of news from him."

"So that's the case. Did you talk to Xuanwu?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"Not yet, I just came out of the laboratory and was about to discuss with Jiang Ling when I was attacked by the enemy. Fortunately, you saved me, thank you." Lu Qing said.

"You're welcome." Tang Qingfeng replied, and then said:

"Then let's go find Jiangling."

"Okay." Lu Qing glanced at the two of them and saw that they were wearing ordinary clothes, so he said:

"Are you changing your outfits?"

"Well, wait here for a while." After Tang Qingfeng finished speaking, he left with Li Zhenwu.

It didn't take long for the two of them to change into a set of Xuanwu Palace guards' clothes and came back.

Lu Qing looked at the two of them and said to them:

"Let's go."

"Okay." After the two returned, they followed Lu Qing and left here.

The three of them walked for a while, and met Jiang Ling on the mountain road next to Xuanwu Hall.Seeing Lu Qing coming with two guards, Jiang Ling walked over quickly and said:

"Lu, Palace Envoy Lu, where have you and the Palace Master gone? I've been looking for you for a long time."

"It's inconvenient to talk here, let's talk about it when we go back," Lu Qing said.

"Okay." After Jiang Ling returned, he and Lu Qing walked towards their own room.

Inside the house, Jiang Ling looked at the guard and said:

"Emissary Lu Dian and I have something important to discuss, you go out first."

"Oh? What's the matter, my lord?" Tang Qingfeng slowly raised his head and smiled slightly at Jiangling.

Li Zhenwu also raised his head, looked at Jiang Ling and said softly, "Brother Jiang."

"You, Brother Li, Old Tang, when did you come here?" Jiang Ling suddenly saw the two of them, and his words were not smooth.

"Not long." Seeing him surprised, Tang Qingfeng replied.

"What's going on? How did you get here?" Jiang Ling asked.

"How else can I go up, of course it is the cableway." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Cableway? Do you know the mechanism?" Jiang Ling asked.

"Institution? What institution?" Li Zhenwu asked.

"Elevator mechanism?" Jiang Ling asked doubtfully.

"What ladder? We jumped up with light work." Tang Qingfeng said.

"What!!" Jiang Ling said in surprise, "You guys, use lightness kung fu......"

"Well, what's wrong?" Tang Qingfeng asked.

"No, nothing." Jiang Ling replied, and then continued:

"How did you meet Lu Qing?"

"........." After hearing Jiang Ling's words, the two fell silent for a while.

Seeing that the two were silent, Lu Qing replied:

"I was attacked by someone just now, Brother Tang and the others saved me."

"What? Who surprised you? Are you injured?" Jiang Ling asked worriedly.

"No." Lu Qing replied, and then told Taoist Xuanming that he was doing the longevity experiment.Jiang Ling nodded clearly and said:

"It seems that the person who attacked you should be sent by Taoist Xuanming. Fortunately, you are fine."

Jiang Ling said to Tang Qingfeng and the two of them:

"Old Tang, Brother Li, thank you for saving Lu Qing."

"...You're welcome." The two replied.
