Back in the bedroom, sitting on an iron chair inlaid with gold foil, General Cao held the carved white jade box and stared at the spiritual bead in a daze.
This is a large, well-ventilated room with iron bars on the stone windows. A row of wooden shelves against the wall are filled with rare treasures, and there is even a rotating clock.
Rare fragrant wood was burning in the iron furnace. A slave girl knelt on the ground and turned the wood with a poker to make the flames bigger. It was summer outside, but the stone house in the mountain city could not live without the fire. Wisps of smoke were floating in the house, General Cao
I just like this feeling of mist.
The picture of Jiangshan and Sheji hand-painted by Zhang Yi hangs on the bedside.
That is my country, General Cao thought. Sadly, the country is immortal but people will die.
This kind of fear and sorrow can only be felt by important people the most. Therefore, since ancient times, monarchs have always admired gods and immortals, and prayed to Buddha for immortality.
The same goes for General Cao.
If you eat this Soaring Dragon Ascension Pill, will you die or ascend to heaven and become a god?
There is no answer, so we can only risk our lives to try.
"If you eat Cao's elixir, you will live forever. Do you want to take it?" General Cao asked the female slave.
"Eat, if the general gives it to me, I will eat it." The slave girl answered without thinking.
"If it is poisonous and you will die if you eat it, will you eat it?" General Cao asked again.
"Eat, if the general gives it to me, I will eat it." The female slave said without hesitation. Seeing General Cao's surprised look, the female slave sighed, "Whether it's in heaven or on earth, it's better than the world."
General Cao was speechless, his nameless fire rising, and he wanted to punch her to death.
The female slave realized something was wrong and ran out holding a dustpan of ashes.
General Cao pinched the elixir, which was smooth, cold, and a little oily. If you don't eat it, the elixir will melt away. Taoist Zhuge said that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth condensed in the elixir will dissipate over time and eventually turn into nothing.
There is no need to hesitate any longer, the elixir looks like it is melting.
General Cao resolutely stuffed the elixir into his mouth...
But a second later he spit it out, took it in his hand, and ran towards the backyard.
It's about to melt, which is not good. Taoist Zhuge can also make another elixir, but Cao only has one life.
General Cao suddenly figured it out. He ran all the way. The guards looked at the overlord in surprise. He had never run like this except on the battlefield. The guards didn't know what happened and ran after him in panic.
General Cao ran to the tiger cage in the backyard. There was a beautiful tiger lying inside. General Cao raised it by himself. It was his favorite pet and had eaten many people. General Cao originally thought that the tiger skin on his big chair
After being bitten by insects and losing all its hair, it’s time to skin a new tiger skin.
Now, he is determined to perfect this pet and send it to ascend.
General Cao knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the tiger, and prayed secretly, hoping that the tiger god would bless him after he ascended to heaven. At the same time, he wished that Taoist Zhuge could refine two more identical Soaring Dragon Soaring Pills, so that he would not be entangled, and let Zhuge Taoist do it first.
Eat for a long time, and then the two of them will soar together.
The guards were shocked.
The two powerful kings and kings arrived and looked at General Cao in surprise.
I saw General Cao kowtow nine times, then stood up, beckoned the tiger to the iron cage, stretched out his right fist, and fed it the Soaring Dragon Ascension Pill in the palm of his hand!
Are you sick???
The second King Vajra is dizzy and dizzy, as if stuck in an ice cave, with both feet unsteady. The brothers regard the eldest brother as an older brother, so the brother treats the brothers like this? He is so cold and cruel, he would rather feed the elixir to the animals than
To brother!
Time and space were stagnant, and it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the ground.
Everyone stared blankly at the tiger with envy and hatred. They didn't know whether it would sprout a pair of wings and fly away, or whether its soul would shed its shell and leave behind a fine tiger skin.
The tiger stood there motionless, suddenly opened its big mouth, roared angrily, and then spit out a mouthful of black blood, spitting it on General Cao's bright yellow dragon robe, fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and then died.
Now everyone was dumbfounded!
Is this ascension or death?
After being silent for half an hour, General Cao opened the tiger cage, walked in, turned the tiger over, pulled out a sharp dagger worn on his waist, cut open the tiger's belly, and exposed its internal organs.
King Kong and King Kong hurried over and saw that all the internal organs were black.
"Poisonous!" Donkey Kong screamed.
"Taoist Master Zhuge wants to poison my lord!" Er Jingang yelled.
"Roar!" General Cao raised his sword and roared, his voice louder than that of a poisoned tiger, "Kill him! Kill him! Kill them!"
They refer to Taoist Master Zhuge and the dark-faced Taoist servant.
General Cao, King Kong and Er Kingang ran towards the alchemy room, followed by dozens of guards, shouting "Kill! Kill them!"
Several slaves blocked the road and were killed by the crazy General Cao and two King Kongs with their swords. The three of them were all furious and wanted to kill everyone they saw.
…
With uneasiness, Xiaolong and Xiao Han waited in the alchemy room.
Unexpected changes occurred in the plan.
The assassination failed, and General Cao refused to take the poison pill.
Both brothers felt a little heavy.
Xiaolong circled the alchemy furnace, thinking hard about what might happen next. If General Cao was a normal person, he would cherish this unique "elixir" in the world. But General Cao is not a normal person, and I don't know what he will do.
do something.
No chance this time.
Yi Ge, Niu Ben and Shi Gandang have all left, and the guards will not let them stay in the castle. Now, think about the best, even if General Cao eats the poison pill, Xiaolong and Xiao Han will be in danger. King Kong and the guards will come to kill them.
Revenge is hard for the two of them to resist.
"Let's go and find my sworn brother quickly!"
Xiaolong picked up his Qingfeng sword, Xiao Han picked up the black wooden stick, and each carried a prepared package. The two hurriedly left the alchemy room. They could not climb over the city wall, and they would not be discovered under the cover of darkness at night. It was very difficult during the day.
It was difficult to hide. They lied that they were looking for alchemy materials for General Cao, opened the city gate, and ran out on horseback.
The horses galloped and didn't run far when they saw Zhang Yi and others sitting in an open space next to the mountain road. Worried about Xiaolong and Xiao Han, Zhang Yi and others stayed near the castle to observe the movements in the castle. If there were any changes, they would fight to the death.
He must risk his life to rescue the two brothers.
"Brother Yi, the situation is not good, let's evacuate!" Xiaolong said.
"I think so too, Xiaolong, I'm just waiting for you two to come out!" Zhang Yi has been worried about the two of them, and was very excited when he saw them. The situation is so urgent that no more words can be said, "Brothers, retreat!"
Everyone got on their horses and ran down the mountain. In addition to the five brothers, there were also Jiang Hua, Zhou Rui and Liao Fan.
Halfway up the mountain, I heard a shrill horn sound coming from the direction of the castle, which was the highest-level assembly order. A large number of cavalry were dispatched, and the war horses made a harsh neighing sound!
"Run!"
Zhang Yi urged, and the eight people clapped their horses and ran like the wind down the mountain.
