Chapter 860: When the Emperor meets the Elixir of Longevity
The three dangerous places are each different, one is underground, one is in the sky, and the third is in the swamp, but they have something in common.
First of all, the three major dangerous places all suit their own conditions. For example, insect monsters can go deep into the ground and feel like a fish in water, bird monsters soar in the sky, and the vicious ghosts of the netherworld walk in the swamp, as light as nothing.
The environment is suitable for their subordinates, and they are also natural barriers to deal with the attacks of human monks.
Because most of the Netherworld is filled with fierce ghosts, they are not afraid of the dangers of these swamp terrains. Instead, these swamps have become natural barriers to the Netherworld. Therefore, the old demon of Black Mountain set the entrance and exit of the Netherworld deep in this swamp.
at.
It's just that the Earth Dragon paid it off. After all, he was born as a centipede and had no feeling for this swamp environment, but Fenghuang had a great dislike for this place.
Phoenix is a divine bird with an elegant nature. It naturally shows great disgust for places like swamps. If Dongfang Jade had not appeared, this matter was related to the life and death of all monsters and ghosts in the world. The Phoenix Emperor might never have set foot in a swamp in his life.
A filthy place.
When the two of them walked into the depths of the swamp, a stone tablet stood in the swamp, with four characters written on it: Netherworld and Illusionary World.
It looked like it was obviously a land boundary sign, but looking back, it was still an endless swamp. There was nothing strange about it at all. Just standing in front of this sign, Fenghuang frowned and said clearly
A voice sounded: "Old demon of Montenegro, why don't you open the door yet? Do you want us to break in by ourselves?".
Following Fenghuang's scolding words, the space was slightly distorted, and then a hole opened, revealing the gray sky and earth behind. Immediately, Fenghuang and the earth dragon stepped out, directly stepping into the netherworld...
Phoenix Emperor and Earth Dragon both entered the Netherworld to discuss countermeasures. At this time, in the main hall of Tianshitang far away in the capital, Dongfang Yu, Ning Caichen and the emperor also entered the hall and sat down respectively.
After downloading.
The emperor was obviously very curious about Dongfang Jade. After chatting for a few words, the emperor couldn't help his curiosity and asked about the fairy world.
Dongfang Yu told His Majesty the Emperor everything she had said to Ning Caichen.
Hearing that Dongfang Yu did not go to the fairy world, the emperor was a little disappointed. However, the conversation changed and the emperor curiously asked Dongfang Yu: "By the way, Imperial Master, I remember that it is recorded in the documents and there is your portrait."
, they say you look in your early thirties, why do you actually look younger after a hundred years? Could it be...".
When he said this, the emperor's mood was obviously a little excited, and he sat upright and said: "Is it possible? Mr. Dongfang, you have the art of immortality and rejuvenation?".
The person who was most deeply touched by the issue of Dongfang Yu’s age was none other than Ning Caichen. However, before Ning Caichen could ask about Dongfang Yu’s age, the emperor came, so the emperor asked the question first.
.
Ning Caichen also looked at Dongfang Yu curiously, wondering what was going on at his age.
"Immortal?" Looking at the emperor's appearance, Dongfang Yu's heart moved slightly, and she could probably understand the emperor's thoughts.
Even ordinary people have obsessions and fantasies about immortality, let alone the king of a country. Seeing that Dongfang Jade has become younger after a hundred years, the emperor naturally has some thoughts.
Wanting to educate all the monsters is a bit too shocking. From Ning Caichen, Dongfang Yu also knew that Tianshitang has always been squeezed out by other forces. Although it has become much more stable in recent years, if he wants to execute this
As for the matter, it seems that many people will still jump out. If they don't do it clearly, they may be squeezed out secretly. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor's attitude is very important.
Can pure respect for oneself allow the emperor to overcome all difficulties and stand firmly behind him to support him? In Dongfang Yu's opinion, this is impossible, so there should be an agreement with the emperor to allow the emperor to support him unconditionally, and he has to pay
There's a certain price to pay.
From the looks of it, the emperor was obviously very passionate about immortality, which was reasonable. Not to mention others, even he himself was crazy about looking for the way to immortality.
Even now, his life span is only three to four hundred years. For Dongfang Jade, it is only a temporary solution to his urgent need. If he wants the emperor to stand firmly behind him, he wants to get a longevity potion, which is enough to make the emperor stand firmly behind him.
He was tempted.
However, although the longevity potion is not very valuable to me now, since I want the emperor to help, I naturally have to show the preciousness of the longevity potion.
The thoughts in his mind could not be transferred for a moment. Dongfang Yu quickly had an idea in his mind. With a solemn expression, he nodded and said: "Immortality and immortality are two concepts. I have indeed gained immortality, and my life span has been extended to four years."
It lasts for hundreds of years, but it is not a magic trick, but the power of medicine. As for immortality, this is what you get by making a wish."
"Immortality and immortality?" Dongfang Yu's words made His Majesty the Emperor's eyes brighten, and his attention was naturally focused on immortality.
Originally, the emperor thought that the method of immortality was difficult and would even take a long time to practice. Unexpectedly, Dongfang Jade said that it relied on medicine? Medicine of immortality? Is there really a medicine of immortality in the world?
Four hundred years? Although it is much worse than the monster that lasts for thousands of years, compared to the short decades of cold and heat of human beings, the lifespan of four hundred years is very long.
"Master, you mean, the elixir of longevity? I wonder if you still have it?" With bright brilliance blooming in his eyes, the emperor stared at Dongfang Jade and asked, speaking of longevity, even as the king of a country, the emperor
His breathing became rapid. Not to mention the emperor, even Ning Caichen was staring at Dongfang Jade.
"Yes, there is, but there is only one copy left. It took me a hundred years to get only two copies..." Hearing this, Dongfang Yu looked very embarrassed and said.
After hearing Dongfang Yu's words, the excitement on the emperor's face faded a lot. Looking at Dongfang Yu's appearance, it was obvious that he attached great importance to this medicine of longevity, but it's right to think about it. The medicine of longevity was even given to Qin Shihuang back then.
I haven't gotten any of them, so they are naturally rare. Being able to get two copies of Dongfang Jade is considered a blessing. There is only one left. Dongfang Jade attaches great importance to it. This is natural.
It is precisely because of this that the emperor did not ask Dongfang Jade rashly. After all, if he asked for such a valuable thing in vain, Dongfang Jade would most likely refuse it, and once he refused, it would inevitably be a conflict between the two parties.
Once there is a bit of a barrier, it will be difficult to speak again in the future.
Therefore, even if the emperor did not speak, he had to wait for an opportunity that he thought Dongfang Yu would agree to before speaking, and he would hit the target with one blow.
To be honest, Dongfang Yu felt a little strange in her heart when she saw that the excitement on the emperor's face faded away, and he didn't ask about the elixir of immortality anymore, but just talked about other things.
Who could resist the temptation of the elixir of immortality? I thought the emperor would immediately ask me for it, and even got so angry that he forced me to hand it over. Dongfang Yu didn't think it was strange.
However, the emperor didn't speak. Did he give up the elixir of longevity? Dongfang Yu didn't believe it. This was impossible. After thinking about it, Dongfang Yu quickly understood what the emperor meant. At the same time, he also had a high opinion of the emperor Dongfang Yu.
Take a look.
It seems that the emperor a hundred years later is still a figure. He can withstand the temptation of the elixir of longevity, knows how to be patient and wait, and waits for the right opportunity before taking action. With this kind of character, for an emperor who rules the world
That said, it is quite rare.
Realizing the emperor's intentions, Dongfang Yu naturally didn't say anything more about the elixir of life. The two of them seemed to have forgotten the topic of the elixir of life. However, Dongfang Yu was quite happy in her heart. She wanted to educate all the demons.
Naturally, it is inseparable from the support of the court, and in Dongfang Yu's view, a capable monarch is much better than a mediocre monarch.
The two sides were talking to each other. Occasionally, Ning Caichen next to him would interrupt and take over a few words. The chat between the three of them was quite enjoyable.
After chatting for more than half an hour, the emperor left Tianshitang and asked Dongfang Yu to attend tomorrow's morning court. Since Dongfang Yu was back, he naturally wanted all the ministers in the court to see him.
Dongfang Yu naturally did not refuse the emperor's words and nodded in agreement...
"Mr. Dongfang, do you really have the elixir of immortality in your hand?" After the emperor left, Ning Caichen turned around and asked Dongfang Yu.
"Yes, why, are you also interested in the medicine of immortality?" After hearing Ning Caichen's words, Dongfang Yu turned around and asked with a smile.
Immortality potion is really not a valuable thing to Dongfang Jade. If Ning Caichen wants it, don't ask for one, even if you give him ten or eight, it will be fine.
But in response to Dongfang Yu's words, Ning Caichen shook his head and said: "The medicine of immortality is too expensive. Mr. Dongfang, you should keep it and prepare it for His Majesty. With this, your ideal of educating all monsters will become more powerful."
It is easy to achieve, and His Majesty is also a wise emperor. If you want to educate all the demons, the first few years and even a hundred years will be a difficult period, and the court also needs such a wise emperor."
Speaking of this, Ning Caichen sighed: "At my age, I should have been buried long ago. If I can meet Mr. Dongfang and learn about your great ideals, I will die with no regrets."
Ning Caichen's words made Dongfang Yu silently nod. Ning Caichen's vision is indeed very long-term. Yes, the initial stage of educating all the demons is definitely the most difficult. The court needs a wise monarch to succeed. Look at the emperor's
His ability is indeed good. Giving him a potion of immortality to let him live a few more years. To be honest, it would be beneficial even to Dongfang Yu's own plan.
