Xin Ruyan originally wanted to stop Wu Yuan, because in her opinion, the risk of taking someone away from here was simply too great.
However, when she saw the little boy sleeping soundly on the ground, she was too soft-hearted to dissuade Wu Yuan.
If the Taoist Lingxu in front of him really had a way to fool Emperor Wu, it would not be impossible.
Although they thought so, neither Wu Yuan nor Xin Ruyan thought highly of this free Taoist.
Because even they find it difficult to come up with a suitable solution.
But just when the two of them were debating whether to take the risk to save the little boy, Taoist Lingxu actually turned around and looked at the Taoist priests behind him.
Then, under the surprised gazes of Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan, he made three finger strokes towards the Taoist priests behind him.
Just when Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan were confused, three people walked out of the crowd.
In terms of age, these three people are all around forty years old, and their eyes have gained a gleam from their original gloominess.
Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan looked at each other, and they both saw confusion in each other's eyes.
But the next second, the three of them walked towards the big stove not far away in front of everyone.
That big furnace was not an alchemy furnace. It was very huge. In Wu Yuan's eyes, it was more like a large boiler.
Suddenly, Wu Yuan seemed to have thought of something, but when he wanted to stop him, it was too late. He saw the three people jumping in one after another resolutely.
At this moment, Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan were so shocked that they could hardly make a sound, they just stared with their mouths wide open.
Likewise, this scene was also a shock to Akano Hanako, who had undergone emotional training.
Ignoring the shock of Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan, Daoist Lingxu and others sat cross-legged, muttering words that Wu Yuan could not understand, but they understood that they were trying to save the people just now.
It didn't take long, and when Taoist Lingxu stood up again, there was no sadness on his face, and he was even calm.
Then he said to Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan who were still in shock: "Your Highness, you can rest assured that only four more people died today."
Wu Yuan immediately understood Taoist Lingxu's intention. The so-called four people included the little boy.
Before Wu Yuan could say anything, Xin Ruyan suddenly said indignantly: "You are going too far? Is this fair to the three of them?"
After hearing Xin Ruyan's words, Taoist Lingxu did not refute, but just gave Xin Ruyan a slight salute.
"The donor is kind-hearted. We here are destined to be unable to get out, but if we can leave a trace of fire behind, we can all jump in without hesitation."
These words made Xin Ruyan's heart tremble.
She could actually tell that when they jumped into the furnace, the three people just now showed no hesitation or fear at all.
There is even a hint of relief and a detached temperament.
It was difficult for Xin Ruyan to say any more accusations, although she still felt uncomfortable.
At this time Wu Yuan suddenly asked: "What is this stove used for?"
Such a huge furnace is a bit excessive for alchemy.
Taoist Lingxu's eyes flashed with sadness, and then he murmured: "Many people think that people who practice Taoism or Buddhism have a certain spirituality in their bodies, such as those relics in Buddhism."
"So if you want to refine a heaven-defying elixir, you must inject a certain amount of spirituality into it."
At this point, Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan have completely understood the purpose of this big stove.
At this moment, the two of them felt overwhelmed and had the urge to vomit.
It's hard to imagine how many lives were swallowed up in this furnace, but it must be beyond their imagination.
Wu Yuan did not dare to continue questioning. At this moment, he even had murderous intentions towards Emperor Wu for the first time.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Yuan picked up the sleeping boy on the ground with firm eyes, and then solemnly said to Taoist Lingxu: "I promise you, next time I come back, I will smash this stove and demolish this underground palace.
.”
Although Wu Yuan's voice was not loud, at this moment in the alchemy room, it shocked everyone's hearts like thunder.
Everyone, including Taoist Lingxu, bowed to Wu Yuan.
Wu Yuan did not say whether he would save these people, because he knew that this might be difficult to do.
Wu Yuan then asked Taoist Lingxu about other secrets in the underground palace, but unfortunately, even Taoist Lingxu didn't know. After they were caught here, they never took a step out of the alchemy room. Of course it was impossible.
I know other places.
Wu Yuan was not surprised by this. In any case, knowing something about Zhang Tianshi here was already the biggest gain.
As for the little boy giving him fortune telling, Wu Yuan didn't take it to heart.
In contrast, Wu Yuan believed in himself more, and his destiny must be in his own hands. As for Zhang Tianshi, even if he was powerful, he was only one person.
In the future, when he truly succeeds in unifying the world, he will not believe in all the power within him and will not be able to kill even one Zhang Tianshi.
After taking a deep look at Taoist Lingxu and the other Taoist priests, Wu Yuan took the little boy, Xin Ruyan and Akano Hanako out of the alchemy room.
Akano Hanako naturally locked the big lock again, but Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan kept staring at the big lock and couldn't take their eyes off it for a long time.
Akano Hanako was stunned. She knew what Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan were thinking, but at this time, she was the calmest.
Akano Hanako said: "Prince, death is never a painful thing, and it never means the end."
Takeyuan looked away. He knew that Japanese people like Akano Hanako who could go out to perform tasks had been completely brainwashed a long time ago. They were indeed not afraid of death.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Wu Yuan wanted to throw away the lock, but he also knew that no matter what he did, he couldn't save these people.
"Let's go and look elsewhere."
Xin Ruyan's eyes were red, she glanced at the little boy in Wu Yuan's arms, and said firmly: "No matter what, we must protect this child at any cost."
"Well, I'll listen to you." Wu Yuan naturally thought the same way.
Then Takemoto looked at Akano Hanako and asked: "How long have we stayed here?"
Previously, Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan's moods fluctuated so much that they could no longer calculate the time for preparation.
Akano Hanako said with certainty: "Just half the time to burn the incense."
According to the original plan, they did stay in the alchemy room for a long time.
If it weren't for the fear of offending Wu Yuan, and the shock that Taoist Lingxu and others also gave her, Akano Hanako would have been unable to help but urge her.
Wu Yuan didn't say much, he just looked into the depths of the underground palace and said, "Let's go and continue looking inside."
