The shopkeeper was busy digging out the snow with a charcoal shovel.
Under the snow, there was actually a frozen corpse.
"Hurry...go and report to the official..."
Someone died in front of the store, and the owner was frightened to death.
The corpse was in a prone position, with its arms stretched forward and its fingers firmly clasped on the ground when it died.
He tried to crawl forward, struggled to survive, and tried to ask the shop owner for help, but when he climbed here, he was exhausted and froze to death here.
It's only a few steps away from the bun shop.
These steps are like a chasm.
The shopkeeper calmed down and squatted down boldly to wipe off the ice and snow on the deceased. When he saw the deceased dressed as a beggar, he sighed in a low voice: "It's really old man Qi. Why didn't I see him here this morning..."
Qin Sang squeezed out the crowd of onlookers and left quietly.
…
The capital of Guyuan Kingdom.
Royal Palace.
On a snowy night, the emperor's palace was still brightly lit, emitting bursts of warmth.
"Go away!"
In the snowy night, an angry shout suddenly shattered the tranquility.
'boom!'
The tray and the soup bowl that the palace maid was holding were both pushed out by the King of Guyuan who was lying on the dragon bed.
The decoction was spread all over the floor, and the pungent smell spread throughout the palace.
The palace maid fell to the ground, covered in black medicinal soup, her face was bloodless, and she knelt on the ground shivering.
"This slave deserves to die!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
…
In an instant, he fell to his knees in darkness.
On the dragon bed, the king of Gu Yuan Kingdom lifted off the thin quilt on his body and tried to get out of the bed. Unexpectedly, his sick body could no longer support his movements.
on the ground.
The leader of Gu Yuan Kingdom pushed the palace maid away and tried several times but could not get up.
At this time, the leader of Guyuan Kingdom had disheveled hair and was extremely embarrassed.
He lay on the bed, looking like a madman, pointing at a young man in noble clothes on the ground, shouting at the top of his lungs.
"Go...go to Xianglong Mountain to invite the immortal master! As long as...as long as my disease is cured and I can live forever, I am willing to give up half of my country and share the wealth with the immortal master..."
The young man in brocade is the current crown prince of Guyuan Kingdom.
The prince knelt and crawled to the bedside, and said softly: "Father, don't worry, the child will go to Xianglong Mountain to kneel down to ask for the immortal master. If the immortal master doesn't show up, the child will be unable to kneel down. I will definitely ask the immortal master to come down from the mountain and cure my father."
disease..."
"Immortality! I want to live forever!"
The leader of Guyuan Kingdom slapped the edge of the bed hard, his eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the young man with a very scary expression.
The rule of Shaohua Mountain is very strict, and immortal cultivators are strictly prohibited from interfering in the mortal world.
As for Guyuan Country, which is a small country with few people, its leader is not qualified to enter the Dharma Eye of Shaohua Mountain.
The prince did not dare to disobey and tried to comfort him, "Yes, yes... the child will definitely ask the immortal master to give him the method of immortality..."
"Go quickly!"
Finally, the king was able to temporarily settle down.
The prince and other officials left the emperor's palace one after another.
The king of the country was seriously ill, and the prince was taking an overview of the government affairs. He did not rush to drive to Shaohua Mountain, but went back to the study and sat down, with the screen back to the left and right, sitting on the dragon chair, not moving any pen or ink, frowning and thinking about something.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the door creaking.
The wind blows the candlelight.
A general in armor flashed in and said urgently: "Your Highness, do you really want to obey His Majesty's will and hand over half of Guyuan Kingdom to the so-called immortal?"
The prince said coldly: "Uncle, do you want me to disobey the edict and become an unfaithful and unfilial person?"
"I don't dare!"
The general stepped forward hurriedly, blocking the candlelight with his burly body and casting a shadow on the prince's face.
"The late emperor governed the country with filial piety, but not foolish filial piety. I just interrogated the imperial doctor and found out that Your Majesty was extremely ill and unconscious. The imperial doctor said that this was a kind of hysterical disease. It happened that I met a miracle doctor in the mortal world. This man was used to knowing
He is famous for his use of wine as medicine, and he is now a guest in the minister's house. He will prepare a colorless and odorless medicinal wine that can cure this disease..."
The general's voice became lower and lower.
After a long time, the prince slowly closed his eyes, tilted his head slightly, and said, "Go."
…
late at night.
The palace of the Lord of Guyuan Kingdom.
An old eunuch came in a hurry. He seemed to be frightened by something terrible. His face was extremely flustered and frightened. He pushed open the palace door, but tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground.
"His Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, wake up!"
"Your Majesty, wake up!"
The old eunuch used his hands and feet to climb to the side of the dragon bed and vigorously shook the sleeping Lord of the Ancient Yuan Kingdom.
The leader of Guyuan Kingdom woke up from his sleep, his eyes still confused.
The old eunuch cried, "Your Majesty, be careful, the prince's intention..."
'puff!'
Suddenly a sharp sword penetrated the old eunuch's throat, and the blood-stained tip of the sword made the leader of the Ancient Yuan Kingdom tremble in shock. He completely woke up and saw clearly that the person who stabbed the old eunuch with the sword was actually his prince!
On the prince's face, all the previous submissiveness disappeared, replaced by a look of indifference.
"The traitor!"
The king was shocked and angry.
The prince left the bloody sword on the ground, glanced sideways at the general beside him, and walked out of the palace without looking back.
The general pinched the mouth of the leader of Gu Yuan Kingdom and forced the poisoned wine into his hand.
Poisonous alcohol attack.
On his deathbed, the eyes of the leader of the Ancient Yuan Kingdom gradually lost their luster, but he still couldn't forget it.
"Immortality...I want to live forever..."
…
Xianglong Mountain.
The common people live in the Immortal City in front of the mountain, and those who seek immortality live in cottages in the back mountain.
There is a thatched cottage in the forest with drafts everywhere.
'Bang bang bang...'
"Brother Zuo...Brother Zuo is awake..."
An unkempt man knocked on the door and called, but never got a response.
He hit it hard several times, but failed to get it away, and left in a hurry.
After a while, the man called several helpers, who worked together to knock on the door, and finally broke the wooden door open.
But in the thatched cottage, an unusually thin and frail young man sat cross-legged on a bed made of straw, his head drooped, and he seemed to have lost his breath.
"Brother Zuo is dead!"
The man exclaimed.
Unexpectedly, a surprising scene appeared,
These friends did not feel any sadness at all, and were so happy that they surrounded the young man.
Someone said: "Brother Zuo has become a human being!"
Some people also say: "Brother Zuo ate the wind and drank the dew, and had intercourse with immortals and gods, and finally obtained the Taoist fruit."
Some people were full of envy: "Brother Zuo has a firm Taoist heart and can learn from the heaven and the earth. He will surely be able to move the heavens and the earth, be guided by immortals, ascend to the Paradise of Paradise, and attain immortality."
…
A group of demons dancing wildly, it's nothing like this.
Qin Sang shook his head in the dark, returned to Huilong Temple, pondered for a moment, then suddenly removed the Xianglong Mountain fog formation and drifted away.
The dense fog that had lingered here for countless years suddenly dissipated, and the unprecedented vision immediately made countless seekers excited.
"The fog has cleared!"
"The Immortal has opened a mountain to recruit disciples!"
"Hurry up the mountain..."
Hearing the shouts outside the thatched cottage, the people in the thatched cottage looked at each other and swarmed out.
At this time, the young man who everyone thought was dead suddenly raised his head, stood up shakily, swallowed snow to fill his stomach, and staggered to the top of the mountain.
But I saw that there was only an abandoned Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, and there were no immortals there.
The young man fell to the ground paralyzed as if struck by a bolt from the blue.
