The little boy said quickly, "Exalted Immortal, I am just a little alchemy boy under the queen's throne. Everything is just following orders..."
"Answer my question." Chen Muyu interrupted him directly.
The little boy was helpless and said, "It's impossible for the empress to protect these villages for no reason. Her old man's cultivation method is special. He needs souls to condense the Yin Dan, and the demand is extremely high. I am just one of the many alchemy boys under her old man.
, the mission is to collect the ghosts wandering hundreds of miles near Dahe Village, so as to brew elixirs in the body..."
"Sir, I have never killed any innocent and kind people. These are the ghosts of the dead..."
"Besides, we only practice this once a year. In a few days it will be your mother's birthday. I have to refine the Yin Dan before her birthday and present it to her then."
…
The kid explained diligently.
Chen Muyu touched his forehead. There was something wrong with this kid's logic.
He said that he has never killed innocent people. This is not important. What is important is that these ghosts are also living beings. They only die physically. If you are lucky, you will have the opportunity to be reincarnated, but you have resurrected them from the spiritual level.
were wiped out.
This kind of behavior is even more abhorrent and harmful to nature.
"So, this Queen Huang Long is really a person?" Chen Muyu pinched his chin.
The little boy nodded repeatedly, "That's natural. The Queen's skills are all-powerful and her powers are infinite. Since coming to the Huanglong River, thousands of demons have hidden themselves, and the weather has been smooth. Among these mortals, who wouldn't think of the Queen..."
"When I first came here in the afternoon, I heard people say that there were monsters in the Huanglong River?"
"What the Immortal doesn't know is that the Queen's birthday is approaching, and there are many Taoist friends coming to congratulate her. During this period, it is inevitable that some people will fish in troubled waters. Therefore, the demon trouble is only temporary. It will be fine after the Queen's birthday."
"Moreover, the empress enjoys the worship of these mortals. These mortals are born to be cheap. If they are allowed to live a good life, slowly, they will only take it for granted, and they should not be allowed to live too well, so
, it doesn’t matter if some monsters come to make trouble occasionally, but if they don’t make trouble, how can they show how powerful I am, and how can I make them be grateful to you?”
…
Those words really opened Chen Muyu's eyes.
Therefore, shelter is real, and so is the presence of monsters.
This Queen Huang Long is really good at playing. No wonder life in Dahe Village is still so difficult.
Without the badness of the bad guys, how can the goodness of the good people be brought out?
"Shangxian, I am just a little alchemy boy. I am only responsible for raising elixirs for my mother-in-law. As for other things, they have nothing to do with me..." The little boy shook his head quickly, trying to distance himself from the relationship.
Chen Muyu's cold face finally showed a smile, "When you say that, I really want to meet this Huanglong Empress."
"What?" The child looked shocked.
Chen Muyu smiled and said, "Why, could it be that you think that I am not worthy of seeing this Huang Long Empress you are talking about."
"no no."
The boy didn't dare to say yes, so he quickly said, "Your Majesty, it is true that not everyone sees her. She is usually busy practicing..."
"Ah."
Chen Muyu sneered, and the atmosphere around him instantly collapsed.
The little boy felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave and quickly fell down and prostrated, "You are not allowed to take people back to your house without your permission. If I take you to see your empress, I will definitely die."
"Take me there to protect you from death."
Chen Muyu's tone was calm, as if this was such an easy thing.
The person in front of him was just like a big mountain, no, ten thousand mountains, pressing directly on his head, making him unable to breathe at all.
The little boy was so frightened that he didn't even dare to say no.
"Your Majesty is a strong person in the Great Dao Realm. Immortal, you..." Even though he was afraid, the boy still had to weigh Chen Muyu's realm. After all, he was too weak. He had to know whether Chen Muyu's strength could be relied on.
"It's just a great realm, it can be destroyed with a snap of a finger."
Chen Muyu said calmly.
While the child was frightened, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
The other party obviously has confidence in his heart, and his strength definitely exceeds that of the Great Dao Realm.
Not daring to be negligent at the moment, the little boy said quickly, "Shangxian, no, senior, can you wait until I finish practicing this elixir before taking you to see the empress?"
"What do you think?"
Chen Muyu was very happy. How long had it been since then, and why were you still thinking about refining elixirs?
The boy's face turned pale, he stood up and said, "It's just that the ghost outside the temple, if not dealt with, will cause trouble to the nearby villagers."
Chen Muyu waved his sleeves and sent these ghosts away from Dahe Village.
The child paused, unable to find any excuse.
"If you continue to make noise, I don't mind killing you first, and then go find the Huanglong Empress you talk about." Chen Muyu said.
"Don't dare, don't dare."
The boy put away the incense burner and quickly led Chen Muyu out of the hall.
At this time, it was still late at night, and the entire Dahe Village was still quiet.
The wind blowing from afar carried a faint smell of river smell.
The Huanglong River is very large and long. It flows from the upper reaches to the lower reaches and passes through many places. In addition, there are many wars in the world. The number of ghosts living in the river can be said to be countless.
It's a bit strange that some people have the idea of using these ghost spirits to refine elixirs.
Although there seems to be a bottom line in taking the Yin spirit of a dead person, Yin spirits are also conscious. They were once living people. Using them to make elixirs does not seem to be much different from using living people to make elixirs.
, the same evil thing.
Under the leadership of the little boy, we came to the Huanglong River.
The river is surging like thousands of horses galloping.
The child spit out a bead from his mouth, and the bead emitted a layer of light that enveloped him entirely.
"Senior, there is a turbulent flow of mysterious water under the Huanglong River..."
The boy wanted to remind him, but he thought that the other party was a senior with great strength. How could he be afraid of this? He realized that he was talking too much, so he smiled sarcastically and took the lead into the river.
The turbulent river water can no longer contaminate him even a little bit.
Chen Muyu was not afraid and followed closely behind.
The river is very deep and reaches the bottom only after it reaches two to three hundred meters.
There is a cave at the bottom of the river, golden and dazzling.
In front of the gate of the cave, there are several spirits parading.
When the two arrived, they were immediately stopped.
The child quickly told what happened, with fear written all over his face.
Upon hearing this, several spirits immediately stopped Chen Muyu.
"Bold, who are you? You dare to break into Huanglong Palace?" The leader of the spirit immediately scolded him.
He had to come up and get someone immediately.
The child was shocked. He never expected that these guards would be so brave.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw the movements of the monsters stopped.
Chen Muyu stopped these little monsters with just one look.
