Chapter 164 The Alchemist

Xu Fu came over from behind and said to the First Emperor: "Your Majesty, please lend me your Majesty's sword."

The First Emperor turned back to look at Xu Fu, and Xu Fu continued: "If you want to kill this man, this is not enough. Iron will only increase his pain, but will not kill him. Your Majesty's sword has the spirit of a dragon. I borrow your Majesty's sword."

With one use, this person can be killed."

Xu Fu wanted to kill the prisoner on death row himself in front of the First Emperor. The First Emperor took off the sword from his waist and handed it to Xu Fu. Xu Fu took it with both hands and strode to the bones. At this time, the mouth of the bones slowly opened and closed rapidly.

The heart beat even more violently. The First Emperor looked at it without blinking, as if the heart of the death row prisoner was about to beat at the next moment.

Xu Fu arrived in front of Bai Gu. He held the scabbard of the sword in his left hand and slowly pulled out his right hand. Then he aimed the tip of the sword at Bai Gu's heart and stabbed it in gently. As the tip of the sword thrust in, the heart suddenly contracted inward, and then exploded.

When it opened, Xu Fu had no time to dodge, and blood splashed all over his face, and some of it even splashed on the corners of the First Emperor's clothes.

The First Emperor ignored the blood and stepped forward to look at the bones. The bones had no movement at this time and were completely dead. Xu Fu wiped the sword clean with his own clothes, then put it into the scabbard and handed it back to the emperor with both hands.

"Your Majesty, the criminal has been punished."

The First Emperor took the sword back and nodded. He touched his sword and asked casually: "Besides my sword, what other flaws does he have?"

Xu Fu shook his head: "Unless the heart is pierced, there will be no death. However, ordinary iron cannot pierce his heart. Apart from His Majesty's sword, only some ancient magic weapons can cause some damage to him."

After hearing Xu Fu's words, the First Emperor neither believed nor disbelieved. He didn't even make any other expression. He just said to the eunuch next to him: "Show me."

That night, the First Emperor hosted a banquet for Xu Fu. The two drank for a long time. The First Emperor looked to the side, and the eunuch understood and retreated. Then the First Emperor smiled and said to Xu Fu: "Who is Xu Qing's apprentice?"

Xu Fu put down his wine glass, stood up and said back and forth: "I learned from Mr. Guigu."

The First Emperor motioned Xu Fu to sit down and continued to ask: "Mr. Guigu has countless disciples. I have heard of Pang Juan and Sun Bin's strategies, but I have never had any alchemists."

"Mr. Guigu is seeking saints. Although he has been in Yunmeng Mountain, he has countless ways to control the situation. The way of the alchemist is just a way for Mr. Guigu to pass the time when he has nothing to do."

"Xu Qing, since you learned the art of alchemy from Mr. Guigu, didn't you learn the method of refining the elixir of immortality from Mr. Guigu? It is said that Mr. Guigu is extraordinary and has lived for more than two hundred years."

"Although Mr. Guigu makes elixirs, he has never eaten them. He said that elixirs are created by heaven and earth, and eating them will be contaminated by cause and effect. He doesn't want to leave Yunmeng Mountain, so he doesn't want to be contaminated by cause and effect."

The First Emperor nodded, and then suddenly changed the topic and said: "Xu Qing, after taking this elixir of immortality, will he be like a prisoner on death row today? Unless his heart is damaged, he will not die?"

Xu Fu nodded: "If the heart dies, the body dies, otherwise there will always be a glimmer of hope for survival."

"Then how many people know about this matter?" the First Emperor said lightly, as if it was an insignificant matter.

"Apart from me, only Your Majesty and the guards present today know about it."

The First Emperor got the answer he wanted and no longer dwelled on the matter. After the two had a few drinks, the First Emperor said again: "Xu Qing, this time you brought back the elixir of immortality and you are indestructible. What else do you want in return?"

Xu Fu stood up at this time and said back and forth: "I only wish that your majesty will enjoy immortal blessings forever and live as long as heaven."

The First Emperor smiled and said: "I want to live as long as the sky? Haha... I want to live as long as the sky. But I don't want to die first. Xu Qing, do you have any other ways? I can live forever if I don't die?"

Xu Fu replied without hesitation: "Your Majesty, I will go to the Three Immortals Island in the East China Sea again and ask the immortals to give me the elixir that will prevent me from dying."

After hearing this, the First Emperor was overjoyed and said: "Okay, okay! Xu Qing is really willing to go?"

"I won't give up even if I die, but..."

"But what?"

Xu Fu hesitated for a moment and continued: "But... Your Majesty, we need sacrifices to pray for the elixir."

"What sacrifice."

"Five thousand boys and girls."

After hearing this, the First Emperor nodded and said: "Tomorrow I will ask people to prepare. Xu Qing will go there when the preparations are complete."

Xu Fu knelt down and accepted the order: "I obey the order."

…………

Tianjisou said at this time: "After Xu Fu's second trip eastward, he did not come back until the death of the First Emperor. There are rumors that after Xu Fu found an immortal in the East China Sea, he also entered the fairyland and stopped caring about worldly affairs. Ha...I'm afraid Xu Fu's second trip

The first time I traveled east, I never thought about coming back."

Du Jie nodded after hearing this. He knew without thinking that the First Emperor had killed all the guards on that day. Now only Xu Fu and the First Emperor know the flaws after taking the elixir. Once the First Emperor really gets the elixir that prevents death, the first one will die.

The one is Xu Fu.

"So what does this have to do with the living dead?"

Tian Jisou continued: "Before Xu Fu made his second eastward journey, he gathered all the people in the alchemist sect."

That day, all the alchemists in the world gathered together, and Xu Fu sat in the middle. After everyone arrived, Xu Fu pressed his hand down to signal silence. Then he said unhurriedly: "This time I

I went to the East China Sea and I don’t know when I will come back. I have something to tell you.”

Everyone held courtesies and waited for Xu Fu to continue.

Xu Fu said calmly: "From today on, the alchemist sect is disbanded. From now on, no one among you is allowed to call yourself an alchemist."

As soon as Xu Fu finished speaking, there was a sudden uproar. No one understood why Xu Fu was doing this. Xu Fu's closest disciple asked: "Master, it is not easy for the alchemist sect to achieve what it has achieved so far. Why should we disband the alchemist?"

Disciples are not allowed to think of themselves as alchemists."

"It's very simple. If you don't do it, you can avoid the disaster of annihilation."

"The disaster of annihilation of our family? Who in the world can compete with us now? How could we have the disaster of annihilation of our family?"

Xu Fu shook his head and asked, "Isn't there?"

The apprentice thought for a long time and couldn't think of anything. Xu Fu slowly said at this time: "Have you forgotten how the Mo family died?"

After hearing this, the disciple of the Mo family asked in disbelief: "Master is working for His Majesty now, how could he end up like the Mo family?"

Xu Fu sneered and said: "You are too naive. When are you going to ask why you are doing something for His Majesty? Your Majesty only asks about the gains and losses. This time I go to the East China Sea, you can go with me. Don't stay, lest you secretly gather other people and put them away."

The alchemists brought him to the point of no return."

Xu Fu said this, and then pressed his hand down. The noise slowly subsided, and Xu Fu said: "I know you are confused, but I don't have time to explain. You can disperse. I say

Let's do this, and live and die according to our destiny from now on."

After saying this, Xu Fu walked out on his own, leaving behind a group of bewildered alchemists.

At night, three alchemists took advantage of the darkness to come to Xu Fu's residence and knelt down outside Xu Fu's door. They knelt for four or five hours.

Just after the ugly hour, Xu Fu's voice came from inside the house: "You three come in."

After hearing this, the three of them were overjoyed. They stood up, straightened their clothes, and then walked in slowly one by one.

At this time, Xu Fu was holding a book and reading it carefully. The three of them did not dare to make any noise when they entered the room. Xu Fu did not speak. The air seemed to be frozen. After another long while, Xu Fu slowly put down the book.

Then he looked at the three of them expressionlessly and said, "You three haven't left. Is there anything you want to tell me?"

The three of them looked at each other, and finally one of them said: "Master, we want to find a way to live forever. In order to escape the suffering of reincarnation."

Xu Fu looked at his three disciples. These three were his disciples with extremely high understanding. Xu Fu didn't give them any nonsense. He just sighed and said, "Birth, old age, illness and death are human relations. Is immortality really good?"

"Please master, please help me."

"At this time yesterday, I made a divination for myself, and the noodles showed that I will never return to the Central Plains during this eastward journey. But the method of immortality will not be cut off. If you want to ask for it, then take it."

After saying that, he handed over the book in his hand. The three of them were overjoyed after hearing this. The leader hurriedly walked over and Xu Fu handed the book over. The man held the book in his palm and saw three big characters written on the cover.

"Wan Bi Shu".

The three of them took the book and knelt on the ground: "Thank you so much, master."

Xu Fu continued at this time: "I know you have guessed that the elixir given to His Majesty was refined by me personally. Here is the formula and method of taking the elixir. Now that you have the method, there are a few things you need to pay attention to.

Things. Forgot to remember."

"Disciples listen to the teacher's instructions."

"First of all, as I said during the day, there will never be any alchemists in the future, and you will definitely not think of yourself as alchemists in the future."

Although the three of them were puzzled, they nodded at the same time.

"Secondly, this method takes over the fortunes of heaven and earth. People with poor fortune and short lives should not try it. Otherwise, they may die suddenly on the spot."

Only then did the three people understand that this method could not really make them live forever. After hearing what Xu Fu said, they were a little worried about gains and losses. One of them asked: "Teacher, are the prisoners on death row in prison not considered people with poor fortune and short lives?"

Xu Fu glanced at him and replied: "Lao Ai is the symbol of great wealth and great honor."

"What, that person is Lao Ai?"

Xu Fu ignored him and continued: "The third point is also the most important point. From now on, the method of immortality cannot be taught to other people, otherwise the world will be in chaos. Remember this!"

The three people said yes one after another. Xu Fu didn't care whether they were sincere or fake, he just waved his hand and said: "The goal has been achieved, you can leave."

Although the three of them looked ashamed at this time, their thoughts were all on "Wan Bi Shu". Seeing Xu Fu asking them to leave, the three of them hesitated for a moment and then withdrew.
