The Alchemist God

Qin Yin carried a thick ancient book to the table and handed it directly to Qu Chu. Qu Chu put it on the table, quickly turned to page 17, and stretched out his finger. There are nine figures, one of which is in the shape of an iron ruler. Qu Chu asked, Ah Yu, take a look, is the iron ruler just like this?

Lin Muyu leaned over to take a look, and was dumbfounded: That's it...it's this iron ruler...

It's a pity that Lin Muyu doesn't recognize any of the characters in this Gods and Demons except for the patterns. It looks like Sanskrit, but it doesn't seem to be the same. It should be the ancient characters Qin Yin mentioned.

...

Qu Chu stroked his white beard, and said: This book of gods and demons, there will never be more than 10 people in the entire Broken Cauldron Realm who can understand it. When I was young, I followed my teacher and learned this so-called God Realm script. ', so I know a thing or two, when I was in my forties as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, I took the opportunity to read this book of Gods and Demons, so I have some impressions.

What is the origin of this iron ruler, Mr. Qu will tell us directly! Lin Muyu said eagerly.

Qu Chu couldn't help smiling, and said: Don't worry... Let me tell you first, there was a fault in the history of this continent. It was about 50,000 years ago. According to legend, a meteorite fell from the sky and the continent was separated. After the civilization was burnt, it gradually evolved into our current continental civilization of the Broken Cauldron Realm, so the historical records we can see today all started from 50,000 years ago, and there was nothing before that.”

What does that have to do with this iron ruler? Qin Yin blinked and asked.

Qu Chu smiled slightly and said, Do you know that 50,000 years ago, we were not the masters of this continent...

What? Qin Yin was astonished: Then who could it be?

About……

Qu Chu narrowed his eyes, shook his head and said, I don't know who it is, but maybe it's another group of humans... Let's call them the ancient humans. These ancient humans worshiped the nine gods. At that time, the heavens had The gods of the nine masters, they call them the Nine Great Buddhas, but each of these nine masters owns a sacred weapon for protecting the Dharma, which are: Tianchong Demon Sword, Liuli Sword, Xuanling Ruler, etc. If I didn't guess If it is wrong, the iron ruler that Ah Yu refined is the Xuanling Ruler among the Nine Great Dharma Protectors, and the Dharma Protector of Xuannan Buddha, who is the master of life and recovery among the Nine Great Rulers, and Xuannan Buddha is also The Xuanji Buddha we enshrine today, so you should understand, right?

Qin Yin opened her mouth in astonishment: What Qu Lao meant... the iron ruler Ah Yu refined was actually the Xuanling Ruler among the Nine Great Dharma Protectors?

That's right, otherwise, how could it be possible to reshape his body? Qu Chu stroked his beard and said with a smile, Ordinary magical weapons don't have such abilities at all!

Lin Muyu squinted her eyes and said, Since what I refined was the Xuanling Ruler, then... who is that killer? How would he know the Xuanling Ruler?

Qu Chu's eyes shot brightly, and he said: If I'm not wrong, this person is the descendant of the ancient human beings, and they are also the people who guarded the nine sacred artifacts. They were the masters of this continent 50,000 years ago. .”

Tang Xiaoxi opened her small mouth: God... Fortunately, this person was eaten by the horned dragon, otherwise Mu Mu would be in danger...

Qu Chu couldn't help laughing: Xiao Xi, you are only concerned about Ah Yu's safety.

Tang Xiaoxi blushed: I...I don't have one...

Lin Muyu looked solemn, and said: Old Qu, will there be more descendants of the ancient humans... This person is so powerful, if there are really many ancient humans, I am afraid the mainland will change hands!

Won't.

Qu Chu shook his head and said with a smile: The number will never be too many, otherwise they would have counterattacked the Great Qin Empire and replaced them, but... these ancient humans have actually started looking for the Nine Great Protectors. This is a warning, maybe we humans It has been tens of thousands of years across the mainland, and it is time to be vigilant.

Lin Muyu and Qin Yin glanced at each other, and they both saw some worry in each other's eyes.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door suddenly, saying: Old Qu, Your Majesty Xuanlin Muyu is going to Zebing Palace to have an audience.

Okay, let's go right away.

Qu Chu smiled slightly: Ah Yu, Your Majesty is announcing your audience, go quickly, and prepare a bit more, it will be the celebration banquet tonight, Cangnan province is now completely under the control of His Majesty, one of your great achievements is No one can replace it.

Um.

...

Lin Muyu got up and went to Zebing Hall. This Zebing Hall is directly behind Zetian Hall, and it is also the place where the emperor received some army commanders and generals. The deep meaning contained in the announcement of meeting Lin Muyu in Zebing Hall is self-evident.

Boom...

Knocking on the door lightly, Lin Muyu respectfully said: Your Majesty, the end is coming.

Ayu, come in.

yes!

Pushing open the door and entering, I saw Qin Jin holding a rusty saber with a serious face. When he turned around, his face was full of wind and frost, as if he had experienced a lot in this short moment.

Your Majesty, don't you know what to announce to me? Lin Muyu asked.

Call me Emperor Father? Qin Jin said with a smile.

Yes, father.

Good Ah Yu. Qin Jin stepped forward and said, Follow me, Father will show you a place.

Oh yes……

Passing through the Zetian Temple, there is a small attic at the back, but there are four imperial guards guarding the front. On the quaint plaque of the attic, there are three big characters written in dragons and phoenixes - Lingyun Pavilion.

Lingyun Pavilion? Lin Muyu said in surprise.

Exactly.

Qin Jin pushed the door and entered, and suddenly a gust of cold wind came from the Lingyun Pavilion. When Lin Muyu stepped in, he saw that the Lingyun Pavilion was very empty, and there were old tables and cases placed in it. There is a piece of armor, war blade, etc. on the table, some of which are long knives, some are sharp swords, some are warhammers, etc., and there is a spiritual place behind each table.

Lin Muyu got closer, and saw a line of large characters written on the first spirit tablet—The spirit of Xiang Wentian, the famous founder of the country!

Xiang Wentian?

Lin Muyu was taken aback: Is it the military god Xiang Wentian, the ancestor of Xiang Yu?

yes.

Qin Jin smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and pointed to a row of spiritual seats behind him, and said: Lingyun Pavilion, the place where the Great Qin Empire enshrines the famous generals of the past dynasties. Only famous generals with enough meritorious service can enter the Lingyun Pavilion. However, only twenty-six famous generals entered the Lingyun Pavilion. Over the past hundred years, there have been wars and turmoil. Shenhou Zeng Yifan and the famous border general Feng Yicheng have become members of the Lingyun Pavilion. However, Zeng Yifan is still alive, but Feng Yicheng has already died in battle. gone.

Lin Muyu took a closer look and found that the second-ranked person was Luo Tonghai, Luo Yu's ancestor. It was because of this famous general that Luo Yu joined the Gendan Camp. He wanted to become like his ancestor!

As for Zeng Yifan, he is ranked seventh, Feng Yicheng is ranked 16th, and the rest are basically unknown. Lin Muyu has no time to study the history of the empire yet.

I don't know what is the meaning of the emperor bringing me to Lingyun Pavilion? Lin Muyu asked suddenly.

Qin Jin laughed, and said: Ah Yu, Ah Yu, heroes are created in troubled times, I think you should also understand this truth, and you are a smart person, Ah Yu, there are only you and the emperor in Lingyun Pavilion, don't you think so? Can't you understand? The Great Qin Empire is about to fall into chaos. To the south of the Qinling Mountains, the princes of the four provinces all look forward to my elder brother, Zhennan King Qin Yi, who I haven't seen for many years. To the north of the Qinling Mountains, there are a total of eight The provinces, Lingbei Province, Cangnan Province, and Dixing Province are now under the control of the father. The other five, Qihai Province is guarded by Lan Gong, Yunzhong Province is guarded by Yun Gong, Tianshu Province Although paying tribute every year, the military power is not under the control of the emperor. Lingdong province is a remote place in the east, with barren land, few people, and less than 10,000 troops, so don't count. Tongtian province is located in the northeast border, so it is inconvenient to travel , even the letter bird can't fly there, and it's not under the control of the father.

As he said that, Qin Jin let out a long sigh of sorrow, and said: This empire... Qin Yi, Su Muyun, Tang Lan, if any one of them resents, I am afraid that the empire will fall apart.

Lin Muyu was stunned, stepped forward to support Qin Jin's arm, and said: Father, I will definitely not... Duke Yun is loyal, and his son Su Qin is loyal to His Majesty even though he is reckless. Duke Lan of the province is Xiaoxi's grandfather, and Xiaoxi and Xiaoyin have such a close relationship, Qihai province will not turn against him, so more than 600,000 troops are loyal to his father, I believe Zhennan King will not They will rise up and commit crimes, won't they?

Qin Jin smiled slightly: Ah Yu can see clearly, but people's hearts are separated by the belly. Under the temptation of the throne, how many people can stick to this loyalty?

Is Father worried about Zeng Yifan?

Hmph, Zeng Yifan?!

Qin Jin sneered and said: Zeng Yifan is just a dead dog, nothing to be afraid of, he is not the one who worries about my father the most.

Is that... Qin Yi? Or is it Duke Lan and Duke Yun?

Oh, let's not talk about this...

Qin Jin stretched out his hand and lightly pressed Lin Muyu's shoulder, his eyes were full of deep meaning, and said: Father took you to see Lingyun Pavilion, just to tell you that Father hopes that one day Ah Yu's name can appear in Lingyun Pavilion... ...Father knows where the fate lies, and the time is not with me. I am afraid that you will be the only one who can stay with Xiao Yin in the future. The four of Chu Huaimin are the hope of the father, do you know that?

Lin Muyu immediately took a step back, put the long sword with its sheath on the ground, knelt down in front of the adoptive father on one knee, and said in a deep voice, Lin Muyu swears here that he will never betray Xiaoyin in this life!

A satisfied smile appeared on Qin Jin's face: Well, so... Father, don't worry, get up, and prepare for today's dinner. This is a celebration banquet for you, Su Qin, and Xiao Yin.

Yes, father.

By the way, you have made great achievements this time, but the emperor can't give you any rewards or promotions. If you rise too fast, you will become the target of public criticism. Do you understand?

Yes, father is wise.
