The district magistrate of the North District of Xiangyang City, a dignified official from the fourth rank of Wei Dynasty, was involved in child trafficking. He was discovered by Xia Yi and fled in fear of crime. Soon the news spread to the ears of Xiangyang City's senior officials.
Xu Mingwen, the governor of Xiangyang County, quickly went to the blocked district magistrate's office to inquire about the situation. When he learned the cause, he felt angry and embarrassed.
I, the Great Wei, was already as afraid of Xia Yi because of the apology of the four Wei families. This also led to the arrest of officials involved in kidnapping and trafficking of young children in our place. How should I explain to the king?
The heads of the Wusheng Mansion, the Huang family and other princely families came soon after hearing the news. They came more to pay a visit to Xia Yi... It's not that they have much respect, most of them just looked at the giant panda and wanted to know Xia Yi
What does it look like?
After learning that Xia Yi was going to arrest someone, they all focused their attention on Shi Lai and Lin Jingjing. They quickly saw that Shi Lai had a solid foundation and cultivation, and he was worthy of being a disciple of senior Xia Yi.
There was no time to exchange greetings, so he just sat silently, waiting for Xia Yi to catch the damn district order.
About ten minutes later, Xia Yi's figure finally landed in the District Ling's Mansion, and threw the unconscious North District District Ling in his hand to the ground.
After being thrown awake, District Ling was confused for a moment, and then he looked up and saw County Sheriff Xu Mingwen with an angry face.
His eyes dimmed, and he knew that Xia Yi didn't accept his 'bribe' after all, and brought him back. He stopped struggling and crying, and sighed:
"Lord Sheriff, I will tell you everything."
Xu Mingwen handed over to Xia Yi: "Senior, can I interrogate him? Senior and several clan leaders can observe, and I will never protect you!"
Guan Yan also assured Xia Yi: "Senior, the Sheriff will enforce the law impartially."
Xia Yi nodded: "Just here, what he committed is not just kidnapping and trafficking of young children."
No? Xu Mingwen looked surprised and looked down at Ou Ling, who was lying limply on the ground.
District Ling said loudly: "I am not kidnapping children, I am giving them a chance! Those children were sent by me to serve the immortal master. As the immortal master's medicine boy, this is their destiny!"
"Immortal Master?"
Several patriarchs with long-standing family traditions immediately looked sideways and did not care to observe Xia Yi secretly. The word "immortal master" is not something that can be used casually. It specifically refers to a type of monk that has gradually become extinct - the alchemist.
.
In people's general impression, alchemists are big liars who practice the elixir of immortality. However, in the Holy Soul Continent, with the Holy Soul, each of the alchemists really has a lot of skills. At least they are good at treating diseases and saving people and practicing medicine.
Nowadays, with the loss of inheritance and some special reasons, there are fewer and fewer alchemists, and even if you search the Holy Soul Continent, you may not be able to find a few.
The district magistrate continued: "I met the immortal master four years ago. He gave me five elixirs. Taking one can extend your life by three years. He asked me to help him search for nine young children. But he said
I don't want my identity to be exposed, and I don't want the children to still have any attachment to the world, so I can only let others snatch it.
This is truly their creation!”
Elixir?! Xu Mingwen’s expression became exciting, and several family heads also dismissed it!
I don’t know how many years ago it was proven that the elixir was just made up by alchemists. There are many medicinal materials in the world that can make people live longer, but most of them are used to treat people’s own hidden wounds, allowing people to live to their maximum life span.
They have lived ten or eight years beyond their lifespan. How can they find the elixir?
Idiot, do you even believe this?!
When the district magistrate saw this, he knew that they didn't believe it, and he quickly shouted: "Master Sheriff, you know me. If I didn't personally experience the effect of the elixir, how could I believe in the immortal master! I still have three pills left.
They're all at Xia Yi's place, Sheriff, you can try one yourself by eating one!"
Xu Mingwen frowned and looked at Xia Yi.
Xia Yi took out a pill from his pocket, held it in his hand and showed it to everyone: "No need to try, what he said is true. I don't know if it can extend life by three years, but this pill must have the effect of extending life."
, there must be at least one year.”
Really?! Xu Mingwen’s pupils shrank suddenly!
Guan Yan couldn't help but ask: "Is what the senior said true?! Is there really an elixir of life out there?!"
Shi Lai also looked over in surprise, and quickly threw a pill to use the Detection Technique... This is a benefit after replacing the Phoenix Demon God system. As long as the Phoenix Demon God's knowledge can be recognized, the Detection Technique can also be used on items.
[Name: Elixir]
[Effect: Extend life span by three years]
[Ingredients: Soul ginseng, Coupel grass, ??flower...and other medicines, three souls of human children]
"Human child... three souls?!" Shi Lai was stunned, his eyes widened, he sprinted suddenly, and stomped Ou Ling's face with his foot!
"You beast!"
"Ah——" Ou Ling cried out in pain.
Xu Mingwen was still shocked and doubtful about the birth of the elixir. Unprepared for the sudden change, he waited until the time came to attack the district order and then frowned.
"Senior, your disciple is..."
"It seems that the elixir is really shocking and makes people unable to think calmly." Xia Yi walked towards Ou Ling, lowered his head and asked Ou Ling, who was lying silently on the ground with nosebleeds spurting out: "Have you ever doubted it? Otherwise, each pill can extend life by three days.
How could you be willing to keep three pills of this magical medicine?"
Ou Ling wiped his nose, remained silent for a while, and suddenly cried bitterly: "I was cheated! I was really just cheated! I didn't mean to harm them! I really thought it was their creation at first!"
Xia Yi snorted, and the black pill turned into powder in his hands, and the young souls inside that had been struggling for several years were freed. At the same time, several Six-Star Kaiyangs felt it and stared at the powder in surprise.
Almost every face showed anger... at least on the surface.
Guan Yan felt ashamed and said: "My descendants are unworthy and were tempted by the elixir! It turns out to be an evil medicine!"
"This man deserves to be killed! He actually used the soul of a young child to practice elixirs. He can no longer be called a human being!"
Some people may wonder, why choose young children instead of adults or even monks? Aren't their three souls more mature?
Because maturity means stability, it is not difficult to kill them, but extracting the three souls of an adult is definitely a hundred times more difficult than extracting the three souls of a child.
For example, Lin Jingjing just didn't know what went wrong. One of her three souls dispersed before she was born. This cannot happen to an adult.
"Okay, if you really knew how to repent, you wouldn't have made the mistake of silencing Hu Zhi." Xia Yi kicked the crying District Ling, "Tell me how you got in touch with that immortal master?"
Ou Ling cried: "I don't know. I have never seen the Immortal Master head-on. I don't even know whether he is a boy or a woman. The Immortal Master is on guard against me. He takes the initiative to contact me every time!"
"every time?"
"Yes... ah, no, I really only had nine young children captured! The other times he contacted me, he always asked me to give him money and help him find valuable medicinal materials, and he did nothing else!"
Unknowingly, the person interrogating him had been replaced by Xia Yi. Xia Yi asked him a few more questions, nodded and left: "Shi Lai, Jing Jing, let's go. You guys can discuss how to deal with this person, Governor Xu. It's about the old man."
Don’t leak out the information about the medicine. This medicine is harmful to the world, so I hope no one will be tempted."
"I'll wait and see. I wonder if seniors will continue to search for traces of the so-called immortal master who refined the evil medicine?" Xu Mingwen asked.
Xia Yi waved his hand: "There is insufficient information and there is nothing to investigate. If the Sheriff finds any clues, you can inform me and I will try my best to hunt down this unscrupulous villain."
He ignored them and took Shi Lai to Lin Jingjing to leave the house. Shi Lai couldn't help but ask: "That's it, grandpa? That bastard immortal master..."
"Of course we won't just let it go. We have to catch that bastard, otherwise we don't know how many children will be killed." Xia Yi said.
No clue? Actually, there is.
This morning, it was confirmed by Yu Han: he has a teacher who doesn't want others to know his name and helps him make up for the hidden wounds left by his hard work in cultivation!
His teacher’s medicine training methods are very good!
And the way this immortal master practices medicine is also unprecedented to Xia Yi. Not just anyone can refine the elixir with the three souls of a young child!
If two people who are good at practicing medicine appear in Xiangyang City at the same time, they are probably the same person!
And Xia Yi is already the target of suspicion.
Rabbit Demon God: Jade!
During the war between the human and demon clans, the rabbit demon was the least on the battlefield. Just like the Jiang family in the human race, the rabbit demon was the logistics staff of the demon clan, and most of its talents were in the medical field!
The Rabbit Demon God is not as strong as the Rat Demon God, but she is recognized as the strongest master of medicine and medicine training by both human and demon tribes!
Very few people have seen her. It is rumored that she has a cold and gentle temperament and is an alternative among the demon clan. Now it seems that the rumors may not be true... huh?
Xia Yi's steps suddenly paused, and his face looked thoughtful.
Shi Lai, who was following behind, almost bumped into him and asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong? Can't find that guy's location?"
It was never found from beginning to end. Xia Yi just wanted to find Yu Han first, but at this moment he suddenly felt that something was not right.
What a coincidence, everything is too coincidental.
Only nine children were captured, and one of them happened to be unable to deal with the head and tail, so Hu Zhi brought him to Xiangyang City.
Hu Zhi was arrested and was put into an adjacent cell with Shi Lai. And it happened that Hu Zhi was silenced only after Shi Lai was released, neither sooner nor later.
Xia Yi happened to know that Yu Han's unknown teacher suspected the Rabbit Demon God.
Moreover, the official position of the district magistrate of Xiangyang City North District is neither small nor large. With this elixir, you only seduce a district magistrate?
After a long silence, Xia Yi turned his hands, and the dark book of deception appeared in his palms. He stared at the pages of the book of deception for a long time, and then he let the book of deception turn into light and disappear.
"I almost got pecked in the eye while hunting geese all day long, but it turns out... it's a seventh-level lie!"
"There is someone who surpasses me in the ability to deceive scriptures. Who is it? What does he mean by setting up this trap? It probably wasn't aimed at me at the beginning, it could be anyone. It was only recently that he temporarily decided to put this trap in
On my head."
"If I hadn't noticed... would I have hunted down Yu Han's teacher and offended Yu Han? No, if my inference is correct, Yu Han's teacher is indeed the Rabbit Demon God... I would have hunted her down immediately..."
Confusing thoughts flashed through.
Xia Yi continued to walk towards Yu Han's house.
"Shi Lai, please take Jingjing back to the inn room to rest first. There may be some danger next, and you can't help. Don't hurt Jingjing."
Shi Lai was slightly surprised: "Is it a demon god? You can't even take it down easily now?"
"It's easy to say he's a demon god," Xia Yi said.
If it were just the Rabbit Demon God, with Xia Yi's current strength, he could easily kill him!
But that is most likely a true king who possessed the seventh-level deception scripture four years ago. The king’s identity is unknown and he does not know how long he has lived. He has been incognito and has not been to the Seven Soul Realm. God knows how powerful he is and what he is planning!
