"Snowflakes cover the top!"
Gu Chensha struck down with both palms, and knocked out another tiger.
The tiger had a huge body, yellow color, deep fangs, and a mouth full of blood. It had just preyed on a wild sheep. When it saw Gu Chensha appearing, it also rushed to eat people, but he defeated it with his bare hands.
After knocking out the tiger, Gu Chensha took the five-color soil and built a small altar.
Five-color soil is everywhere, but it doesn't take much effort. Now the Temple of Heaven in the capital is also a building of five-color soil.
After the altar was built, Gu Chensha took out the talisman to sacrifice to the sky, and at the same time placed the prepared medicinal materials on the altar. Those medicinal materials are not uncommon either. The business in the capital of the Dayong Dynasty is now flourishing, and anyone with money can buy them.
Although he was being deducted everywhere, he still had some savings, and he was able to afford a few not-so-precious medicinal materials.
These medicinal materials are just introductions, changing the power of the sacrifice, and condensing the elixir.
On the altar, there is also a wolf that has been stunned.
Pull out the dagger, kill the tiger and wolf, and let the blood drip on the heaven-sacrificing talisman.
This time, he did not bleed himself.
Sure enough, the tiger wolf's soul was absorbed, and great energy gushed out of it, but when encountering changes in the aura of the small array of medicinal materials and the five-color soil altar, it spun on the spot.
Zizizizizizi...
It seemed that the water was boiled, and Gu Chensha saw a blue vitality wriggling on the altar, and finally ignited a big fire.
In the fire, a pill was finally condensed.
Cyan like jade.
"Sure enough, it succeeded. This is the Tiger Wolf Pill. After people eat it, their strength will increase greatly. Although I don't need it, I can improve the strength of my loyal subordinates!"
Gu Chensha was delighted.
The ancient Tiger Wolf Pill was finally condensed through sacrifices.
Those simple herbs are like gypsum for tofu. If there were no smells of medicinal herbs to interfere with the sacrificial power, then the huge power of the tiger and wolf would dissipate in the air and be wasted in vain.
He didn't shed his own blood, and the sacrificial power couldn't flow into his body, and of course it was still in the void.
After getting the Tiger Wolf Pill, he slowly returned to the palace, and just entered the courtyard, Xiao Yizi stood at the door with a bruised nose and a swollen face, his teeth had fallen out, and his words leaked out.
"My lord, you are finally back." He cried with a sad face.
"What's going on here?" Gu Chensha was furious in his heart, but he was also deep and calm, he knew that the little eunuchs and maids around him were often beaten, and even he himself was sometimes beaten by the prince, this is a common thing.
So the maids and eunuchs who followed him were all beaten and tried to get away. They would rather empty the toilet than follow him, so the maids and eunuchs around him changed one after another, only Xiao Yizi was loyal. .
He also once suspected that Xiao Yizi was an undercover agent sent by others, but after years of observation and careful attention to details, he found that this person was sincere.
"Master! You still don't know?" Xiao Shunzi's eyes widened: "I heard the news from the inner palace that the master is about to come of age, and the emperor gave him a marriage by paying homage to the moon. Now the master has been envied by all the princes, almost Everyone wants to kill you, today I went to the Shangshan Supervisor to ask for some food for you, and I happened to meet Xiao Duozi, the eunuch under Qiye, and immediately slapped me and beat me up."
"What? Give me Lou Baiyue's marriage?" Gu Chensha was shocked: "Impossible, is it a rumor?"
Lou Bai Yuetian's proud daughter, some ministers even think that she is the best candidate for the queen in the future, she is also proud and arrogant, and sees nothing in the world as men.
Of course, this is secondary, the main reason is that this woman is very hostile to him, or because he donated blood to the dynasty.
"The news from the inner court said that Yuan Guogong asked about the marriage, and the emperor asked Lou Baiyue to get close to you first. Lord, if it is another prince, this is a wishful thing, but for the Lord, it is a disaster. I have to resign with all my might to keep the rest of my life safe." Xiao Yizi's voice trembled.
"I know about this matter, it's just getting close, and there is no real decree to grant a marriage, so there is no need to make a fuss, let's just wait and see how it changes." Gu Chensha settled down: "If this is what the father meant, then I'm afraid I can't resign. Besides, I've been pretending to be crazy for so long. I should be happy when I hear this, instead of resigning immediately. Play dumb."
"I'm afraid..." Xiao Yizi was still trembling.
"What are you afraid of, come with me." Gu Chensha went back to the room first, and took out the Tiger Wolf Pill: "Little Yizi, take this medicine."
"Yes!" Xiao Yizi took it and swallowed it without hesitation, nor was he afraid that it was poison.
A moment later, a green energy emerged from Xiao Yizi's body, wrapped around his body, and entered and exited his seven orifices.
Juli reshaped his body, and suddenly his aura changed abruptly, powerful and menacing, and his femininity was swept away, replaced by the unscrupulous "Tiger and Wolf Master" on the battlefield.
The breath calmed down, Xiao Yizi looked at his hands, his eyes were dumbfounded, and he felt that there was endless power in his body: "What is this? I feel like a different person."
"Don't worry about it, you just need to know that you are very powerful now, and you can get twice the result with half the effort when practicing martial arts." Gu Chensha looked around: "And today's matter is kept secret."
"yes!"
"Also, you go and get some green clams, remember, you have to live."
"yes!"
Qingfu is a kind of insect. According to folklore, if its blood is smeared on money, the money will automatically fly back after being spent, so the alias of Qian is "Qingfu".
This is a legend, because someone tried it, but it didn't work.
Now the Dayong Dynasty has begun to issue banknotes, but if you have gold and silver, you can still go to the national bank to exchange gold and silver for banknotes, and then circulate.
According to the ancient history books, gold and silver can be obtained by offering sacrifices to green clams. Gu Chensha wanted to try it. His monthly bills were severely withheld, and he was stretched. If he could really sacrifice gold and silver, he would no longer be short of money.
In the future, there will be more places to spend money to open a government and build a dental office.
Xiao Yizi was quite capable, so he waited in the inn with the green gnats in a cloth bag the next day.
Green clams are like cicadas and butterflies, they are everywhere.
"Go ahead and watch outside, lest anyone pay attention to me." Gu Chensha ordered after taking the green gnat.
"Yes." Xiao Yizi went out and looked around.
Gu Chensha took a large copper basin, and put a gold particle the size of a broad bean in the copper basin. He has accumulated so many years of gold, and still has the underlying gold.
Take out the green gnat, take the blood with a needle, and smear it on the heaven-sacrificing talisman.
boom!
A golden airflow appeared in the copper basin, which circulated slightly, but could not fly out, but settled in the basin, and finally turned into the same golden particle.
"It's actually true?" Gu Chensha was overjoyed.
He was about to kill the green cockles in the bag one by one to sacrifice to become gold particles, but when he saw the worms in the bag wailing, huddled together, yelling, he couldn't help but feel compassion: "The beast has a vicious character, kill tigers, wolves, and bears." It doesn't matter if the boa sacrifices to the sky, the green gnats are non-toxic, and they don't hurt people. It seems immoral to kill the weak for the sake of gold, but what qualifications do you have to get the talisman? You can find other ways to earn money. It seems inhumane to kill for money.”
He shook his head and let the green gnats go.
After doing this, he suddenly felt a lot more open-minded.
"Master, it's time, let's go back to the palace early, otherwise we will have to sleep in the inn after the palace gate can't get in. It will cost a lot of money." Xiao Yizi spoke softly outside.
"That's good." Gu Chensha nodded. Since Xiao Yizi took Tiger Wolf Pill, his strength has increased several times, and he can handle things neatly. If he can have more subordinates like this, it will be more worry-free.
The two left the inn and entered through the north gate of the palace.
The north gate is a side gate, which is responsible for transporting vegetables, chicken, duck, fish, live pigs and sheep into the palace, and is also responsible for transporting the garbage out of the palace. It is the most filthy, but generally eunuchs and maids with a little head and face do not enter the palace through the north gate. But Gu Chensha's courtyard was just north of the palace, so he had to go in and out from here.
This is also the meaning of the powerful figures in the palace insulting him.
Walking through the north gate, you can enter in all directions, like a formation of gossip, leading to the imperial dining room, purchasing bureau, warehouse, internal affairs office, manufacturing department, etc. Even old people who have stayed in the palace for ten years will get lost.
Gu Chensha didn't even know how big the palace was, and he couldn't go to the harem, and many forbidden areas were heavily guarded.
When he and Xiaoyi walked into the narrow alley to the north, a large sedan chair came towards him, carried by eight eunuchs, and four eunuchs beside him were serving melons, fruits and tea, and the other two maidservants carried incense burners made of gold and silver. , the fragrance wafts out, making people feel refreshed.
The big sedan chair was also made of fragrant wood, inlaid with beautiful jade and jewels, shining brightly.
Full of ostentation, rich and powerful.
"This is the sedan chair of the Eighteenth Prince, sir, let us give way." Xiao Yizi said.
Gu Chensha is the nineteenth prince who is underage and lives in the palace. The same goes for the Eighteenth Prince, both of whom are within a few days' age difference.
The same is the prince, but the treatment is very different.
Seeing the eighteen princes go out and carry eight big sedan chairs, they are graceful and luxurious, surrounded by servants like a cloud, while Gu Chensha takes a little eunuch and walks on foot.
The eighteenth prince is about to come of age, but he has already bought a piece of manor in the capital as a mansion, which is magnificently built, like a palace in the sky. According to the news from the inner court, he can be named Duke as soon as he comes of age.
The mother of the eighteen princes is one of the four "imperial concubines", second only to the empress.
The imperial concubine's family is a thousand-year-old family, the Shui family.
Rumor has it that he is a descendant of the ancient Black Emperor.
It has existed for thousands of years, and it will not fail after changing dynasties.
Emperor Tianfu also relied on the power of the Shui family to dig the canal, which runs through the east, west, north and south.
The Eighteenth Prince has such a solid backing, with superb martial arts skills and wealth, he is the most powerful candidate for the greatest contender for the throne.
His name is Gu Hongsha.
Gu Chensha didn't want to get entangled with him, so he walked to the side to avoid it, which was an active show of weakness.
Things were not as simple as imagined, the big sedan stopped in front of him.
The curtain was pulled shut by the eunuch, and a young man walked out from it.
This young man's silver-white brocade robe, embroidered with cloud patterns, is simple and elegant, with a fair face, but a tall and straight figure, with no joy or anger on his face, and deep eyes, he is a formidable character.
"Nineteenth brother, congratulations."
Gu Hongsha said lightly.
"Brother eighteen, where did I get the joy?" Gu Chensha had a smirk on his face: "I don't understand what you said."
"There's news from the inner court that my father summoned Lou Chongxiao and intends to betroth Lou Baiyue to you. Lou Baiyue is the proud daughter of heaven. Many brothers want to marry her. Isn't this a joy?" Gu Hongsha's non-salty tone made people unable to figure out his true inner thoughts.
Gu Chensha made up his mind to stay the same and respond to all changes, hehe smirked: "How can I be so lucky."
"Okay." Gu Hongsha waved his hand: "Old Nineteen, don't pretend to be crazy and stupid for me here. I know that you hide your strength and bide your time, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but there is nothing wrong with it. You have your difficulties."
"Hehe." Gu Chensha still had a demented smile, no matter how others speculated about him, he still had to play it to the end.
"Old Nineteen, I don't care whether you are really stupid or pretend to be stupid, I will give you a way to survive." Gu Hongsha looked down on him.
