No matter how miraculous a drug is, if it cannot be used by oneself, it is no different from garbage. For the dying young master on the hospital bed, Zhu Sha Dan is such an existence. The general stopped looking at him, turned around and walked out of the house, stopped when passing by Anhua and the priest, asked them to take good care of him, and then said a word in a deep voice.
"I wouldn't say that that person is trying to gain fame, but he must have a huge plan."
People understand what the general means, whether that person found the holy prescription from ancient books or developed it by himself with the talent of medicine, if he really cares about the safety of the human race and is compassionate, then the most important thing to do is to take out the prescription .
Ever since she confirmed that cinnabar pills had miraculous effects and saved many people who should be alive, An Hua had a great affection for that mysterious man whom no one had ever met. She didn't want to believe that man could be A conspirator may have other ideas, but she also has no way to deny the general's words.
That person can only take out one bottle of cinnabar pill every month, and the number of dozens of pills is still too small for the needs of frontline soldiers. She believes that person has tried his best, but it is because there is no way to collect enough rare medicinal materials. , or limited ability, there is no way to increase production, but as long as he is willing to hand over the prescription, these problems can be easily solved. Just like what she thought at the beginning, no matter how rare the medicinal materials needed for this elixir are, the state religion and the imperial court will definitely be able to find them.
The state religion and the imperial court can mass-produce this kind of elixir, the human race will gain a great advantage in this war, and the future of the mainland will be bright. Of course, it will also be of great benefit to that person, he will gain Thanks to the gratitude and countless merits of the whole world, even if he does not know how to practice, he will become a true saint.
So why is he unwilling to do this
…
…
The middle-aged man sat in a chair and drank tea quietly. The innkeeper stood in front of him, not daring to move.
Hearing the voices behind the wall, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Saint? It's just Gu Qi."
The innkeeper lowered his body even lower and dared not say anything.
Rare goods can be lived in, which is a means for merchants to sell goods.
How much is cinnabar worth? In terms of curative effect, it can give birth to bones and heal the dead, so it is naturally a priceless treasure. But in fact, since Zhu Sha Dan first appeared in Yonglanguan, there has never been a price. To get it, you don’t need any money, you just need to wait—if you have the life to wait until that moment.
Neither the owner of the cinnabar pill nor the Yinghua Palace and the current Wenshui Tang family can get any benefits from the cinnabar pill. In some people's eyes, the Wenshui Tang family has no reason at all for this kind of elixir that can't get any benefits. , Offending so many forces and big shots in the world. But in the eyes of truly insightful people, this kind of thinking is undoubtedly extremely stupid. The master of Cinnabar Dan has determined the rules, but the rules are dead, and there are always some places that can be used. For example, the two formation masters who are also seriously injured and dying, regardless of their cultivation level and past military achievements, are very similar. So what? Determine their order in sequence
At this time, it is the power of the Tang family.
Even if this kind of power does not appear all the time, it seems very small, but one ten thousandth of the infinity is still as vast as the ocean, no matter how important it is. The Tang family will never give up this resource. In order to ensure the long-term preservation of this resource, they will try their best to meet that person's conditions, including enforcing the rules for him.
After the change of Tianshu Mausoleum, the Tang family's status in the human race has become higher, and they have left the Tianhai family far behind, becoming the de facto first family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Now they hold the distribution of cinnabar pills Power, the status has been consolidated once again, and even made many forces feel faint fear.
If it is an ordinary aristocratic family, they should be satisfied with such a position, but the Wenshui Tang family is not an ordinary aristocratic family. They are the earliest merchants in the mainland. Merchants will never be satisfied and are insatiable. In terms of business, the Tang family certainly couldn't be satisfied with the benefits brought by cinnabar pill.
Compared with the magic of Zhusha Dan, the benefits now are a bit too small, and... they are not the dominant ones.
That mysterious person is the real boss, and the Tang family cannot accept this.
Regardless of armaments, food, cities, treasures, and medicines, the Tang family must be the sole owner, or at least the major shareholder, of all businesses involved in the mainland.
Since tens of thousands of years ago, the greed for profit and the strong desire to control have been the strongest color of the Tang family in Wenshui, and it can even be said to be the purpose of existence. These two points have long been deeply rooted in the blood of every member of the family. It became a kind of obsession, so even if the Yinghua Palace murder was the first, they still wanted to get more from the cinnabar pill.
More than anyone else, they want to know who is the real owner of Zhushadan.
Compared with other forces in the world, they are undoubtedly the closest to that person, and there may be a few layers of fog between them, but they can already vaguely see some truth.
Yes, this inn is owned by the Tang family in Wenshui.
The middle-aged man is the seventeenth master of the Tang family in Wenshui.
He came all the way from Wenshui to Songshan Military Mansion, just to find the secret hidden behind Cinnabar Dan.
A respectful and fearful voice sounded outside the door.
"The goods from Montenegro have arrived."
Hearing these words, Master Tang Shiqi raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes became brighter.
He got up from the chair, and under the guidance of the innkeeper, he came to a secret room in the backyard of the inn.
In the middle of the secret room is a large black stone table, on which are the goods that the Tang family in Wenshui spent a lot of money transporting from the Heishan Military Mansion.
It was a corpse.
The deceased was a man who was seriously injured. His face and neck were scorched black. It was obvious that he had been burned by a highly poisonous magic flame. His half-unbuttoned clothes had an obvious military style. The knots are slightly raised, and in the miserable gap between the chest and abdomen, there are still faint traces of starlight that have not completely dissipated.
From these details, it can be seen that this is a cultivator in the Star Gathering Realm who died in a battle with a powerful demon, and is most likely a general of the Great Zhou army.
Master Tang Shiqi took out a clean white handkerchief from his sleeve, covered his mouth and nose, and signaled the shopkeeper to come forward with his eyes.
The shopkeeper walked to the black stone table, took a sharp knife, and began to cut between the chest and abdomen of the corpse, slashing down from the depth of the already existing crack.
Accompanied by a slight scoffing sound, the blade sliced open the stomach of the deceased, and a cyan unpleasant-smelling liquid gushed out and dripped onto the table.
Master Tang Shiqi frowned slightly, and wrapped his handkerchief tighter in disgust, but he didn't look away.
In front of him, the innkeeper looked like a particularly mediocre servant, but at this moment, he looked like a very experienced servant.
The shopkeeper reached into the stomach of the deceased without hesitation, fumbled for a while, and took out a small bag.
I don't know what material the small bag is made of, it's not leather, it's not paper, the surface is very smooth, it feels very thin and soft, and you can faintly see a round object inside.
That thing may be a stone, it may be a pearl.
It could also be a pill.
