There were firelights for lighting, and the tunnel was wide enough. In a short time, the two of them traveled two to three kilometers. Chaitino estimated that they should have arrived near the hill behind the courtyard.
The ramp gradually rose, and the space became larger and larger, and finally came to a huge cave with a height of more than four or five feet. There were burning flames everywhere and heavy iron doors on all sides.
Chaitino looked up and found that a one-meter-wide passage led directly to the top of the mountain, and he could see the stars outside.
"Sir, this is where my master hides his children."
The man removed the heavy bolt and pushed open the iron door with great effort. Chaitino took a look and saw six children lying on the bed, fast asleep, and such a loud movement did not wake them up.
The bedding is clean, the child's cheeks are rosy and tender, the living space is not small, and there are many toys. Chaitino grinned, the environment seems to be pretty good!
"How many children are locked up in this cave?"
"Exactly eighty-one people."
"What's the use of so many children?"
"Make medicine and refine Yang-Returning Pill!"
Having said this, the young man couldn't help but shudder.
"Huanyang Dan, take someone to see it!"
Chai Tiannuo frowned. He always felt that this name was very familiar. He seemed to have heard it before. When he thought about it carefully, it was true that although it was different, it still contained the character Yang!
One is the Chunyang Pill given by Tu Qingqiu to treat Man's Fetal Poison, and the other is the Shaoyang Pill given by Yiyang Zhenren, which also treats Man's Fetal Poison.
Chunyang Pill, Shaoyang Pill, Huanyang Pill, the names are really similar!
"My lord, follow me."
The man walked all the way up and finally came out of the mountain. Chaitino looked around and found a platform on a vertical cliff. There was a rock wall on the outside half blocking it, so he couldn't see it from the ground.
There was a stone house on the platform. The man pushed open the wooden door, and immediately a fragrant smell wafted out. Chai Tiannuo could not help but shudder when he smelled it. There was actually the smell of Chunyang Pill and Shaoyang Pill!
"On weekdays, no one else is allowed to come except the master and the manager. I only came twice to help them carry their things."
The man picked up a jade gourd from the shelf, opened the lid and poured out a white pill, and carefully handed it to Chaitino:
"This is the Yang-Returning Pill."
"...What a strong aura!"
Taking the pill in his hand, Chai Tiannuo couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. The Yang-Returning Pill was discovered by himself in the world, and it contains the most spiritual energy, no one!
After sniffing carefully, there was a faint scent of pure spiritual water. Chai Tiannuo was really shocked. It is not an exaggeration to say that this elixir is a treasure!
"Refining this elixir requires countless precious medicinal materials, and even the weather needs to be properly controlled during the refining time. If there is a slight deviation, all the previous efforts will be wasted, and the master will feel as if he is facing a formidable enemy every time he refining it."
Chai Tiannuo nodded, took the gourd, put the Huanyang Pill in and put it away, frowned and asked:
"How to use children as medicine inducers?"
"I don't know how to refine the small ones, but I can take the adults to see the used residue."
The man bit the word "drug dregs" very hard. Chai Tiannuo frowned even more tightly, already having some guesses in his mind.
Returning to the cave again, the man led Chai Tiannuo to a deep tunnel that was not blocked by iron gates. He opened the nearby straw mat and said in a trembling voice:
"Sir, this is the spent medicine residue!"
Everywhere he saw were young mummies, and their chests were empty. Chai Tiannuo was shocked when he looked at the straw mats extending into the distance. This number was far beyond imagination!
"How come there are so many corpses? How many children did that bastard kill?!"
Chai Tiannuo roared, his heart filled with uncontrollable anger.
"There are countless, nine well-raised soul boys can make the medicine once, and after the medicine is finished, you can get three Yang-Returning Pills."
"Twenty-seven members of my family, from the old man to the young master, are all taking it, and they have eaten it more than once."
"Every time the alchemy is successfully made, a masked man will come and take away the bulk, leaving only one or two percent."
The man said in a low voice. Chaitino clasped his hands and showed a look on his face.
With a smiling and angry expression, he nodded and gritted his teeth and said:
"I have learned a lot, I have learned a lot!"
"No wonder the Emperor doesn't want to mention it more. Such an unconscionable thing is really outrageous!"
Chaitino turned around and left. He had given birth to countless children and did not want to stay here any longer. It was as if he could feel countless weak and childish children crying in front of him, and his heart and lungs were cold.
Zhang Chenglu, who looks gentle on the outside, is actually a living devil!
Back at the house, Chai Tiannuo strode to Zhang Chenglu and asked with a cold face:
"Do you still have a human heart?"
Zhang Chenglu first scolded the man as a beast, then chuckled and patted his heart:
"Of course it exists, and it's right here."
"How can it be called a human heart after killing countless weak children?"
"This is strange. They are all low-level ants, just like livestock. What's wrong with using them to maintain health?"
"Just like you eat sheep and pigs, what's the difference?"
"...You have truly entered the devil's path and are no longer a human being!"
Looking at Zhang Chenglu's sincere eyes, Chai Tiannuo shook his head gently. The person in front of him was purely an evil spirit in human skin!
"Tell me, where did the prescription come from and who was involved?"
Chai Tiannuo asked in a calm voice, and Zhang Chenglu continued to laugh:
"Do you think I will tell you?"
"It's best not to tell."
Nodding, Chai Tiannuo asked the secret guards loudly:
"Did you bring a fishing net?"
The secret guards were shocked and understood what this meant. Mr. Qian nodded:
"I have brought a fishing net and a wrist-breaking knife, sir, but do you want to use them?"
"Take off Zhang Chenglu's clothes, Ling Chi!"
"Here!"
Mr. Qian's eyebrows trembled. He didn't know what Chai Tiannuo saw just now, and he actually wanted to be so cruel.
"Leave ten people, and the rest will go and pick up the children."
"...The bodies of the dead children were also brought out to see if their relatives could be found, and it was time to bury them."
Mr. Qian looked at Chai Tiannuo fiercely:
"Sir, how many children have died?"
"There are too many to count."
Chai Tiannuo shook his head lightly. Mr. Qian looked at Zhang Chenglu who was being undressed and understood the reason.
After taking off his clothes, Chai Tiannuo looked at Zhang Chenglu, who was in his sixties but not bloated at all, and nodded gently:
"You're actually born with a good skin."
Zhang Chenglu still smiled calmly:
"I'm going to become an immortal soon, no matter what you do, so why should I fear torture in the mortal world?"
"Very good, let me take a look at the skin and flesh of your god, what's the difference?"
"Here comes the sword, I want to do it myself!"
The secret guard who was sharpening the knife with cowhide was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and handed the knife over.
Taking the knife, Chai Tiannuo came closer. At this time, Zhang Chenglu's body had been strangled by the fishing net, and his skin and flesh were exposed from the fishing net.
Try the blade. Just as Chai Tiannuo was about to strike, the secret guard shouted:
"Sir, is the position wrong?"
"Um?"
Chai Tiannuo was a little confused. The secret guard stepped forward, pointed at Zhang Chenglu's chest and said:
"You broke the rules by striking at the face first. The first cut should be on the right breast, and the piece of meat removed should not exceed the size of the breast. This is a serious Ling Chi."
"...What's your identity on the surface?"
"Hehehehe, executioner."
Chai Tiannuo kicked him away with his big foot, and with a clever force, the boy flew four to five feet and landed on the ground. Apart from the pain in his buttocks, he had no other problems.
"Grandma is a bitch, you can do whatever you want, screw your rules!"
